Chapter 85: The Persian Origins of the Fallen Foci
No way!
When Hu Kai thought of these strange behaviors in Yingzhou Kingdom, he felt that he had to ask clearly.
From the very beginning of the docks, he felt that the people here did not seem to be strange to them as outsiders, as if everything was extremely normal.
It stands to reason that the ancients couldn't have reacted so calmly when they saw such a large cruise ship, right!?
Now it is time to choose a king, and the same is true.
That Niu Zongzheng has been working on how to make everyone the king, but he doesn't care about the things on the side, which doesn't seem normal.
Just imagine, what country's ministers would look forward to outsiders to be their kings every day? Could it be that there is anything unspeakable in this?
Thinking of this, Hu Kai walked through the crowd and walked towards Niu Zongzheng on the platform.
Zhang Shi and the others thought that this was Hu Kai going to line up to meet each other, and they followed him at the moment.
"Lord Niu, Lord Niu!" Hu Kai squeezed through the crowd and asked Niu Zongzheng on the stage, "Can you ask a question?" ”
"Oh?" Niu Zongzheng turned his head, and after seeing Hu Kai, he hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said the word "please speak".
"My lord, I would like to ask, has anyone come to you to be a king before us?" Hu Kai asked, "How are they doing now?" ”
"Oh...... Well, this one! Niu Zongzheng stroked his gray beard and replied without hesitation, "Back to your distinguished guests, since the ancestor Jun Fang Gong promulgated the testament, the descendants of Yan and Huang who have come to our country to be kings, or the descendants of the Ying family, are very many!" It's so much that I can't even remember the records of the historians! ”
Oh?
Really?
Hu Kai pondered for a moment and continued to ask: "Then what happened to them in the end?" ”
"How's it going?" Niu Zongzheng didn't understand Hu Kai's question, and immediately said, "What else?" Naturally, you want to be a king, huh? Crowded, rotate! If there are few people, he will be a king until the end of his life? I don't know what does it mean to ask such a question? ”
"yes? Oh...... I'm mainly worried about you, you see...... If a foreigner becomes a king, will it have any bad effects on your country? ”
"Oh, that's it! No, it won't! Niu Zongzheng said with a glance, "My Yingzhou country is a small maritime country with a radius of less than 40 miles, and there is basically no diplomatic war. The country is rich in products and self-sufficient, and the position of king is actually quite idle!
"The successive kings of our country have only enjoyed flowers and birds, tasted delicious delicacies, and then selected some beautiful concubines to accompany them to sleep and so on. I think that after thousands of years in Yingzhou, the country's economy has been operating normally, and there is no heavy state affairs to deal with in ordinary times, so the king is naturally leisurely and beautiful!? ”
Oh...... Such......
As soon as Niu Zongzheng mentioned Mei Ji and Mei Concubine, a few words leisurely and fast, and the men who were meeting next to him couldn't help but sigh.
As a normal person, isn't this kind of leisurely imperial life exactly what everyone dreams of?
is like this, everyone's face can't help but be excited, and they can't help but secretly hope that they can be drawn early and become a real emperor!
"Oh...... That's right! Hu Kai remembered one more thing, and hurriedly asked, "Lord Niu, I also want to ask, I see that you have prepared such a large vat of bamboo sticks, isn't it, there are often people like us who come here to draw lots to be the emperor?" ”
"Well...... this" After Hu Kai mentioned this question, Niu Zongzheng still replied bluntly, "Back to the distinguished guests, those who come to us to be kings will meet some almost every few years, and there are all kinds of people here, and all kinds of situations have been encountered!" Therefore, we people here are also a little used to it, ahem......"
Due to his quick speech, Niu Zongzheng seemed to be choked by his own saliva, and coughed violently on the spot.
"Ahem...... "Ahem," the old man still wanted to complete his reply, "Fishing boats, sailboats, lifebuoys, and huge ships like yours have all seen it!" Others, like Goguryeo (Korean) people, Dongying people, and even foreigners, have also seen a lot.
"It's not a boast, the old man's language ability is the strongest in the country, and after a long time of contact with these people, I learned some languages that can communicate with you, as well as those foreign languages.
And the decrepit position of Zongzheng was also obtained because of this.
"Ahem...... Don't hide it from the VIPs, we have long been surprised that many people draw lots to become emperors. However, this is the first time that so many of you have come together to draw lots! At least in my old age, I have never seen it! ”
Oh......
I see......
When the old man spoke, Hu Kai kept paying attention to the old man's every move, and he found that this person was sincere and approachable, not like he was talking nonsense.
It seems that, as he said, they are no longer surprised by these tourists in fancy costumes!
If this is the case, it means that the people here still don't know the origin of the cruise ship and can't give an answer related to the cruise ship!
Alas?
Isn't that right?
Suddenly, Hu Kai discovered a very important problem.
If what Niu Zongzheng said is true, there are people here who come to be emperors every year, then ...... What about those people? You can't all die, can you? There has to be a living one, huh?
They...... What the hell is going on?
No, you have to ask.
Thinking of this, Hu Kai wanted to ask again. Who knows, that Niu Zongzheng was coughing so much that he was almost out of breath, and a waiter was busy next to him, patting the old man's chest and back, handing tea and pouring water.
But seeing that the old man's face was pale, although he still wanted to speak, he was vague and coughed constantly, and the situation was very bad.
Seeing this, the waiters hurriedly waved their hands at everyone embarrassedly, and then carried the old man down to the backstage to rest.
Gee......
Hu Kai couldn't help but smack his lips and worry, once the old man has three longs and two shorts, I don't know if there are any others in Yingzhou who can speak Chinese? If you can't communicate, it's not a good idea.
"Alas!"
Who knows, just when Hu Kai was worried about this, there was a sigh from Uncle Hou next to him.
Turning his head to look, Hu Kai realized that it turned out that Zhang Shi and the others saw that there were fewer and fewer people in line, so they also sat down at the table and let the physiognomy test it.
However, before the Thai Lao K could sit firmly, he was vetoed by others. Looking at the strange big nostrils of the old K, these physiognomy masters are not scared, it is good.
In addition, Yang Lele, Xie Yufei, and even Uncle Hou did not pass the inspection, and they were all brushed off.
Lao K won't talk about it, Yang Lele and Xie Yufei are women, and it is reasonable to be excluded, but as for Uncle Hou, he was also brushed down, which was really unexpected, and the old man sighed on the spot.
"Alas!!"
Who knows, Uncle Hu shook his head and sighed: "It seems that what my old man said is true!" He said that our ancestors were of Persian ancestry, immigrants from ancient times who came through the Silk Road! At the time, I thought he was joking with me! Unexpectedly, it was true! ”
