Chapter 234: Brotherly Country
Zhu Jinghong was chatting with several governors, and the complicated ceremony also came to an end, and at the same time heralded the official start of the banquet.
But even so, the banquet in the palace also has a corresponding exquisiteness, such as all the envoys must first toast to the prince.
After doing this three times and expressing respect for the crown prince, the banquet really began.
Next, the music sounded, and the Wuying Hall was filled with singing and dancing, which also made the banquet atmosphere more lively.
The envoys of the Tusi of the Ministry Alliance, who were close to the Ming Dynasty, walked up the imperial steps with wine glasses and knelt in front of the prince to express their submission.
However, there are still many similar envoys, such as the Dzungar who are not obedient, and they are still a minority at the moment.
At this moment, I only heard Niu Jizong remind: "Thirteenth Master, someone is looking for you!" ”
Looking in the direction of Niu Jizong's line of sight, Zhu Jinghong had a smile on his face, just because he was still an acquaintance.
"See the Thirteenth Master!"
Hearing the translator's relay, Zhu Jinghong sat still, glanced at the kneeling man on the ground, and then said, "This is not ...... Okamoto-sama! ”
Okamoto Yingyuan was extremely frightened and said: "The villain has a humble status, how can he be worthy of being called such a thirteenth master!" ”
"That's not necessarily, maybe one day the coastal pirates will enter this palace, and then I will have to beg you for help!"
These words did not save face for Hideto Okamoto, which made him particularly aggrieved at this time.
I was beaten and swallowed my anger, and then I stained myself to save my face, and now I lower my posture to ease the relationship......
Everything he could do was done, and he did it extremely well, and he didn't understand why he wasn't forgiven.
"Thirteenth Master, the foreign minister will never dare to have such a heart!" Hideto Okamoto kowtowed to the ground.
Who knew that the next moment, Zhu Jinghong laughed out loud, causing Okamoto Ying to be far from knowing.
"Get up!"
"I was joking with you just now, I know the loyalty of the Okamoto family to Daming!"
Hearing this, Hideto Okamoto felt a lot more relieved, and then got up from the ground.
I only heard Zhu Jinghong continue: "How complicated your Okamoto family is, there will inevitably be some scum among them, vainly trying to sever the friendship between you and me, such a wolf ambition, you must be strictly purged!" ”
His remarks are tantamount to separating the Japanese from the Okamoto family, and they can naturally ignore the past in the future.
"Thirteenth Master Mingjian, our general is loyal to His Majesty the Emperor, and I will definitely make a message to him when I return to China this time, asking him to eradicate the disloyal thieves in the clan and in the country!"
Zhu Jinghong nodded and said with a smile: "That's right!" ”
"Thirteenth Master, the foreign minister respects you!" Hideto Okamoto's expression was flattering.
He came to Daming this time to ease the relationship, and he had already suffered such a big loss before, so he naturally wanted to do his best.
As the emperor's concubine, Zhu Jinghong's attitude and views are very important, but he still has "prejudices" against Japan, so Okamoto Hideyuan must eliminate his mustard.
That's why after he was slapped in the face, he was beaten with another face, and he could be said to bear the burden of humiliation for the sake of the family.
But his hands were sore when he raised his glass, and even the smile on his face froze, but Zhu Jinghong didn't mean to mention the cup.
"Thirteenth Master, look at this ......"
Hearing this, Zhu Jinghong finally stretched out his hand to the cup and said unhurriedly: "Your Okamoto family is the strongest in Japan, but it is not without opponents...... Do it for yourself! ”
"Yes!"
Lifting the cup casually, Zhu Jinghong gestured to Okamoto Yingyuan, and then drank all the wine in the cup.
Also drank the wine in the cup, Okamoto Hideto said respectfully: "Thank you for the teachings of the Thirteenth Master!" ”
Zhu Jinghong's little finger moved slightly, signaling that he could retreat, and put down the wine glass.
Seeing that the goal was achieved, Hideto Okamoto felt endless grievances in his heart while rejoicing.
Zhu Jinghong's contempt made him feel endless humiliation, he could represent the face of the Okamoto family, and he should have received a minimum of respect.
Looking at Okamoto Ying's distant back, Zhu Jinghong whispered: "I see that he is not convinced!" ”
The people who could hear this were the governors who sat with him, but they all had their own opinions.
Niu Jizong brushed his beard and said: "Thirteen masters, Japan is a small country, it's not worth mentioning!" ”
Other people almost have this attitude, and Zhu Jinghong actually understands this very well.
Although the hegemony is partially unstable, the Ming Dynasty still coerces the countries like the sky, and it is normal for the court to be arrogant.
"It's not worth mentioning now, but not necessarily in the future!"
Shi Guangzhu couldn't help but speak: "The Thirteenth Master looks up to them so much? ”
"I heard...... Japan has discovered a large gold mine, and gold mining is a breeze, and you can pick up pure gold by rummaging through it! ”
Everyone present really didn't know about this situation, so everyone immediately became interested.
"This thing...... Where did the Thirteenth Master find out? ”
Niu Jizong just asked, only to hear Liu Fang answer: "I have heard about this matter!" ”
With Liu Fang's words to corroborate, everyone did not suspect that it was false, at least a few more words.
At this time, Zhu Jinghong said again: "There is so much gold and silver, if you use it all to buy guns, do you think they will be a big trouble?" ”
This seems to be reasonable, but when they think of Japan's weak national strength and the sea separated from the Ming Dynasty, it is still difficult for everyone present to pay attention to them.
So Zhu Jinghong plans to change his perspective and talk to the governors about gold and silver, after all, there are very few people in this world who don't love money.
Zhu Jinghong said this, and the banquet gradually entered a climax, and the atmosphere was harmonious and more and more enthusiastic.
Regardless of whether they know each other or not, the envoys from all over the world communicate in the official dialect of the Ming Dynasty, which is not fluent, and the customs and customs of various places can be heard here.
It was at this time that the Zasak envoy led several people to the royal stairs like the other envoys.
"The foreign minister has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"
There is no doubt that thorns such as Dzungar and Zasak attracted the attention of most people at the scene.
So at this time, many people found out that something was wrong, just because the Zasak envoys on the royal rank did not kneel and bow to the prince.
You must know that Zasak officially accepted the canonization of the Ming Dynasty, and legally speaking, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty had to kneel even if their Great Khan came.
If the envoy does not kneel, it is a great sin of disrespect.
"Presumptuous!" The foreman guard shouted loudly.
Zasak's envoy Murat replied calmly: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, I have come to toast to show that the two countries are like brothers, could it be that this is also wrong?" ”
There is a problem here, Da Ming treats Zasak's as his son, so Murati's words are wrong.
The prince didn't realize this, and couldn't find the words to say for a while.
In the prince's opinion, people come thousands of miles away to express their surrender to Daming, and this heart is good enough.
At present, the envoys of the following countries are here, and if they are too harsh, they are only afraid of the public opinion of the world......
Obviously, the prince was afraid of chickens and ducks.
He didn't speak, embarrassing the scolding guard, as if he were messing around.
Seeing this scene, the martial artists around Zhu Jinghong were also very anxious.
Niu Jizong had the most explosive temper, and immediately got up and scolded: "The prince is the prince, you dare to see the prince and not worship, do you want to rebel?" ”
These words spoke to the hearts of the warriors, and everyone, including most of the envoys, glared angrily at the Zasaks.
Murati smiled and said extremely humbly: "The prince didn't speak, but the general opened his mouth first, this is a great ...... Who has the final say? ”
The next moment, the Junggar envoy under the imperial stairs followed and spoke: "This is indeed the truth, the Ming Dynasty uses etiquette to educate the world, it seems that it is not really etiquette......"
