Chapter 328: Such an unusual Chinese New Year's Eve dinner

Shuntianfu, Wumanyi.

The so-called Wumanyi is actually a place to receive envoys from other countries, which is equivalent to an official V hotel, of course, it is a high-end kind.

However, today's Wumanyi does not have the relaxed and happy atmosphere of previous years, but is full of gloom.

Just because someone just came.

Zhu Sanfeng's name is now not resounding at home and abroad, but most of the countries that have intersections with the Ming Dynasty know Zhu Zhanyan, and most of those who know Zhu Zhanyan know this female devil beside Zhu Zhanyan.

It turns out that if a person's personality has a great contrast with his gender, it will be easier for others to remember you.

For example, if you talk about a man's mother, it is very reminiscent of eating a peach to be cool, but Zhu Sanfeng is the opposite.

When it comes to women, people's first reaction, even if it is not gentle and weak, it is definitely not related to ruthlessness.

Therefore, Zhu Sanfeng, who has killed countless people with a ruthless heart, will be remembered.

I wish Sanfeng to come to this Wumanyi, which is naturally to hold accountable the envoys who came first, and Daming sent such a person over, and the attitude is obvious.

As a result, the envoys of the Ryukyu Kingdom and other countries were reluctant to the Varat envoys.

Inside the Imperial Palace, Inshou Palace.

Normally, the eight-hundred-mile expedited delivery is a battle report and other letters, but this time Jian Xiao sent back with an eight-hundred-mile expedited letter.

Zhu Zhanyan looked at the token in his hand and sighed a little in his heart.

Some people, some things, really don't have to be dealt with because they will pop up on their own.

"Zhu Ling."

"His Royal Highness."

"Give this to Saihazhi and tell him that I want to see the results before the Shangyuan Festival."

"Yes!"

Zhu Ling left with the token given by Zhu Zhanyan with both hands, and never showed any other expression from beginning to end, even if he was holding something that many people longed for.

That token is actually a jade plaque, with no decoration on it, only a big "Jin" character carved on it.

It was a token of the Ming Dynasty merchant and the Jin merchant.

No, they can't be called Ming merchants anymore, because before Zhu Zhanji sent gunpowder to Wara, he took the trade route of the Jin merchants, and used the caravan of the Jin merchants.

"Sure enough, the anti-bone boy is an anti-bone boy wherever he goes, and he can't change it in this life."

Zhu Zhanyan stood up and walked behind the screen while muttering.

Jin Shang can be said to be a traitor group, the demise of the Ming Dynasty in history is related to the corruption of officials and the obsolescence of the system, but there is also an unavoidable relationship.

From the middle of the Ming Dynasty to the end of the Ming Dynasty, merchant groups led by Jin merchants smuggled large quantities of grain, armor, and weapons into the Jurchens.

When he was in Xi'an before, Zhu Zhanyan felt that this Jin merchant was not a good person, coupled with the lessons of history, he planned to find an opportunity to clean up these merchants at that time.

Sun Shaozong's matter did make some of the Jin merchants also die, but that was only a part.

There is nothing outstanding about Sehazhi, but for the task with conclusive evidence, he can still complete it very well, otherwise it would be impossible for him to retire normally in this position in the history of Jinyiwei.

Before that, though......

The thirtieth day of the lunar month.

It's the annual Chinese New Year's Eve dinner again.

This year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was very unusual because it was very lively, and the excitement was a little too much.

It stands to reason that as the place where Zhu Zhan fought down is getting bigger and bigger, there should be fewer and fewer envoys who come to pay tribute, and this is indeed the case in previous years, but this year is different.

Under Zhu Zhanyan's plan, this year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner is no longer a lively one that can be described.

This year's Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was colorful.

The color here is not to say that the lights are colorful, nor is it to say the ordinary color, but the skin color.

"His Royal Highness King Wu has arrived!"

The highest position was empty, but with the high-pitched shouts of the eunuchs, it was known that the biggest man of the day had come.

On this kind of occasion, the empress dowager of the Zhang family is not suitable to attend, and Zhu Zhanji is impossible to attend, as the king of Wu, Zhu Gaoxu is naturally the biggest.

However, Zhu Gaoxu is also a well-known person, and he will not leave a handle for people casually, and he will naturally not sit in the highest position.

At least, not right now.

As soon as Zhu Gaoxu sat down, the envoys of Gutai, Banjar, Belao, and the Ryukyu Kingdom came up, and these spirits naturally knew who should please the most on this occasion.

Still, these people are a little absent-minded.

Because everyone knows that the most important person in the Ming Dynasty has not yet come.

"His Royal Highness the King of Jiyang has arrived!"

The eunuch's high-pitched shouts lifted the envoys, but they were soon disappointed.

The king of Jiyang is Zhu Zhanyao.

It stands to reason that among Zhu Gaoxu's sons, such as Zhu Zhanqi, Zhu Zhantan and Zhu Zhanqi, should have been canonized a long time ago, because they are neither the eldest sons nor adults, and it has long been time to be canonized.

But because of Zhu Zhanji's relationship, not only were these descendants of King Wu's lineage not canonized, but they didn't even have the money that the imperial court issued to the vassal king every year.

Even this King of Jiyang was canonized by Zhu Zhanyan after he became the master of Shuntian, and asked the Empress Dowager Zhang to act on behalf of the emperor.

"King Wu has arrived!"

Just when people were gathering together to discuss the title of King Jiyang, the person who made them wait left and right finally came.

As soon as Zhu Zhan Yan arrived, the atmosphere of the whole dinner instantly entered a climax, and everyone surrounded Zhu Zhan Yan, even if Zhu Zhan Yan had not yet sat down.

"Huh? An envoy of the Ryukyu Kingdom? Looking at the flattering envoy in front of him, Zhu Zhanyan was thoughtful.

"When the prince of this world conquered the Japanese before, the Ryukyu Kingdom gave us a lot of help to the Ming Dynasty, and even became an important supply line for our Ming army for a time."

"At the beginning, the Ryukyu Kingdom threw a peach on us, and we will naturally repay it with Qiong Yao, and when we go back, the prince will discuss with Your Majesty and send envoys to the Ryukyu Kingdom."

"As for going back this time...... There are no rare things in the Ming Dynasty in the past two years, but the maidservants brought back from the West from this Shizi are quite interesting, and I think the king of Ryukyu should not have seen them. ”

"It's better to go back and let someone choose a few young and good-looking, and you can bring them back to your king."

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your grace!" The Ryukyu envoys were overjoyed.

Rewards are secondary, the important thing is to get the friendship of the Ming, and although the gift of the Ming is not valuable, it is definitely scarce.

Regarding slaves, whether it was a transaction with Shahru of the Timurid Empire before, or Zhu Zhan's own conscription last year, most of the slaves brought back were young and strong, because what Zhu Zhan Yan wanted was productivity.

Whether it is digging rivers or mining coolies, this is what Zhu Zhanyan needs most, and he naturally rarely brings back women.

However, less does not mean nothing.

For white women, there are two stages at the peak of their appearance, one is when they are fifteen or sixteen, although the white women at this time are young but the best time, and the other is about twenty years old.

The development of white women is very fast, and about twenty years old is the time to exude maturity, if fifteen or sixteen girls are youth, then about twenty is maturity and charm.

But if it's over thirty, it's an aunt.

The appearance of white women is falling so quickly, and there is no good maintenance method in this era, unlike the female stars of later generations, which can be delayed.

Therefore, female slaves are quite popular in Banjar and other countries, but because Zhu Zhanyan lacks labor and not money, they are often priceless.

But looking at the current situation, it's not that you can't do it, and it's also a benefit that this white woman ages quickly.

If it is an Asian woman, it is very popular from fifteen or sixteen to thirty-five or sixteen, or even in her forties, but in comparison, white people are like a consumable.

From fifteen or sixteen to twenty or so, that is, about ten years, they will be abandoned.

The amount needed is large, and the consumption is fast, and it seems that the money comes very quickly......

I'm late to come back today.,Two more hanging.,The missing chapter will be made up tomorrow......
