Chapter 380: The Mission's Provocation
On this day, just when Zhu Yuanzhang was about to go to court, Erhu, the new commander of Jinyiwei, suddenly walked over quickly and said in a low voice.
"Your Majesty, the last general has just received news from the Ministry of Rites that General Babuba of the Mongolian Oirat tribe led their delegation to Yingtian to worship, and now he is living in the pavilion."
Zhu Yuanzhang nodded, and then he asked Erhu.
"Did they say what they meant by coming this time? After all, this Oirat tribe is still very closely related to the grassland, do you want to open your eyes for the Northern Yuan? ”
Erhu didn't understand what they were here for, and when they saw Zhu Yuanzhang asking, they replied directly.
"The last general is not very clear about these, but when these envoys came, they had already presented the letter of the Great Khanate of Oirat, and they were ready to negotiate peace with my Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a while, and then told Erhu.
"We still remember that Zi'an once said a sentence, which makes sense, it is called that friends come with good wine, and enemies come with shotguns, even so, then let them go to the court to meet, we have to see if it is a friend or an enemy who comes."
After Zhu Yuanzhang ascended and sat in the court, Babuba, the messenger of the Oirat tribe, also came to the main hall.
The officials of the Ministry of Rites were going to teach them how to greet the great emperor, after all, they could not lose their manners in the court.
Unexpectedly, Babuba just arched his hand very casually and said.
"Great Tomorrow, I am General Babuba, the envoy of the Oirat tribe, and I came to Daming today to discuss peace with you, and if you have any conditions, just say it."
Zhu Yuanzhang saw his performance like this, and he was naturally very unhappy in his heart, so he said immediately.
"You are a very ignorant envoy, you know, even your Tianyuan Emperor was beaten to the ground by my Ming Dynasty, only a place left in the fishing sea, you are just a tribal envoy, but you are so rude above my court."
Zhu Yuanzhang saw him coming from afar, and he was already talking to him with suppressed anger.
Unexpectedly, this Babuba didn't seem to appreciate the painstaking efforts of the great tomorrow, but said arrogantly.
"Absolute strength has absolute temper, you must know that our Oirat tribe is a very powerful tribe, our cavalry can dominate the world, equestrianism can be described as invincible, and it is more than a little stronger than the golden family of Emperor Tianyuan."
After hearing this, Zhu Yuanzhang was a little speechless in his heart, as if he was watching a beam-jumping clown perform hard there, but he didn't want to say anything more.
However, at this time, many imperial historians were singled out and played their due role.
They reprimanded this tribal envoy for having no royal manners at all, and should have been pulled out and cut down.
At this time, Babba was proud, looked at the ministers of the Ming Dynasty and said.
"You Ming people can't do it at all if you want to cut off my head, my horsemanship and sword skills are unmatched in the entire Ming Dynasty!"
At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at Lu Ning, who was squinting at the play, and asked.
"Zi'an, why are you still watching coldly at this time, not speaking at all, this envoy is so provocative to Daming, you can even stand it!"
Lu Ning smiled indifferently, and then said to Zhu Yuanzhang very respectfully.
"Father, the son is actually thinking about how to deal with the unreasonableness of this envoy, but now I have a way."
Regarding Lu Ning's self-confidence, Zhu Yuanzhang knew in his heart that he must be thinking about using the Ming Truth Cannon again, so he said.
"Okay, then let's order Si La, a Ming Truth Cannon, to come over and use it for you, and let you reason with them."
Lu Ning replied to Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile.
"That's not necessary, the Ming Truth Cannon is used to deter the enemy, and I now have a new trick, which has just been invented, and I want to use it on this envoy."
When he had finished speaking, he turned to the messenger Babba.
"What are you arrogant about here? Now that you're in trouble, I can put your soul away, believe it or not? ”
At this time, the envoy instantly seemed to hear the funniest joke, and he said to Lu Ning.
"You don't come to talk about these gods and ghosts, although we are Mongolians, we have learned a lot of Chinese culture, so if you talk about any strange powers, I don't believe it at all, let's compete with me on the battlefield."
But unexpectedly, Lu Ning ignored his words at all and took out a black thing.
The thing looked boxy like a small box, and then he pressed the shutter on Babba, and a light flashed at him.
At this time, Babba was really frightened, and he quickly turned his head, lest his soul was really summoned by Lu Ning.
But after turning around, he found that there was nothing unusual about him, so he felt that Lu Ning was pretending to be a ghost, and he was even more disdainful.
"I'll just say that you Ming people don't have any ability at all, you still want to scare me, I'm all safe and sound now, what else can you do with me?"
Lu Ning looked at this ignorant envoy with compassion, like looking at a fool.
After watching it for a long time, he sighed and said.
"It seems that you people from the uncivilized lands can't understand the magic of the kingdom of heaven, but I'll let you understand soon."
After finishing speaking, Lu Ning bowed deeply to Zhu Yuanzhang, and then said.
"Father, my son will retire to you for the time being, and I will come back in half an hour."
Zhu Yuanzhang didn't understand what kind of medicine Lu Ning was selling in this gourd, but he believed that as long as Lu Ning made a move, there would be no problem.
So he said.
"Okay, then we'll give you half an hour, and I'll be back as soon as I wait for half an hour!"
