Chapter 573: The Heavenly Empire Makes It Mighty

The North Korean official who came to greet him was Li Renbiao, a soldier and counselor, whose position was similar to that of the Ming Dynasty's military department.

Chen Yuntai's waist card was reported by the palace guards layer by layer, and it was not until it was passed into the hands of Li Renbiao that he determined the identity of the person who came.

Da Ming suddenly sent an envoy to come, which was a great event, so Li Renbiao explained the situation to the soldier Cao Jushu Park Zhejin.

In order to avoid neglecting the envoy of the kingdom, Park Zhejin ordered Li In-pyo to come out to greet him, and he went to meet the prince Li Xuan, who presided over state affairs.

Receiving the waist card in his hand, Chen Yuntai said: "His Royal Highness King Xiang has been ordered to inspect Liaodong, and today I will be sent to North Korea to bring a message to your king!" ”

Although it was determined that the waist card was real, if there was nothing else to prove their identity, Chen Yuntai and his party still couldn't enter this palace.

"This is the handwritten letter of His Royal Highness King Xiang, with His Royal Highness's private seal on it, as well as the official seal of the Liaodong Navy Division and the Liaodong Metropolitan Division, and here is the official letter of the Liaodong Political Division, which is the ...... of the Liaodong Judicial Division."

Chen Yuntai understood the rules, so he directly took out all kinds of supporting documents, and also saved Li Renbiao from asking.

North Korea and Liaodong have frequent exchanges, and after Li Renbiao took these things, he carefully checked them and confirmed them again.

But he still didn't let him go, but asked: "Dare to ask the envoy, why is no one informed about this coming to North Korea?" ”

When the court sends someone to come, it is normal to greet them in advance, rather than directly sending someone to find the palace.

Chen Yuntai was about to explain, but Yu Hai, who had not spoken, said: "The time is urgent, it's too late to say hello, if you delay it any longer, I'm afraid that I can't afford to miss it!" ”

The identity of the person who came had been confirmed, and seeing that Yu Hai was no longer very happy, Li Renbiao didn't ask any more.

"Let your people get out of the way quickly, and invite the envoys to enter the palace!"

So Chen Yuntai and his entourage entered the palace, and then Li Renbiao left the others to settle down, and only took Chen Yuntai and Yu Hai into the deep palace.

"The two of you didn't wear official uniforms all the way, and it was not easy to come to the trip to clear customs!" Li Renbiao didn't have anything to say, but he was actually testing Chen Yuntai and the others.

"I have a waist card, and it is unimpeded along the way!" Chen Yuntai replied.

In fact, from Daming to Seoul, there are only two passes that have passed, and they have indeed passed easily, after all, this North Korea has been peaceful for nearly a hundred years.

Soon, Chen Yuntai and the others were led to a side hall, and Li Renbiao asked them to wait for a while, and left after arranging a meal.

How long it will take, Li Renbiao didn't say, because he didn't know.

"These dogs dare to be so lazy!" Chen Yuntai was very unhappy.

Now that their identities are revealed, since the two of them are envoys of the kingdom, they should be greeted by the king of Joseon in person, and no matter how bad the prince is, he should show up.

When Chen Yuntai was unhappy, Yu Hai, who was sitting on the side, replied, "Don't worry...... It's not that you don't know the prince's methods, and these people should be in a hurry later! ”

Thinking that Zhu Jinghong was dispatching troops, Chen Yuntai's heart calmed down a lot, just as Yu Hai said, the North Koreans will be in a hurry later.

"Grandpa Yu, no wonder you can serve the prince closely, you admire your qi cultivation skills!"

Yu Hai smiled and didn't answer again.

After a while, several maids entered the hall, all carrying food boxes in their hands, and put them in front of Yu Hai and Chen Yuntai respectively.

"Eat first...... It's easy to do things when you're full! Yu Haiwen said with a gentle smile.

When traveling to a foreign country on business, in addition to seeing the local customs, it is also very meaningful to taste the local food...... At least that's what Yu Hai was thinking in his heart.

But when the first food box in front of him opened, there was an unknown dish and tofu boiled inside, and then the next food box was a plate of cold noodles, and then ......

Yu Hai, who had eaten all the way of dry food, looked at these clear soups and little water, and his full expectations instantly turned into disappointment.

So he couldn't help asking, "Do you know who are the two of us?" ”

Yu Hai is indeed a good person, he thinks that these people don't know their identity, so he will send them casually.

The official language of the Ming Dynasty is very popular among the upper echelons of North Korea, and at this moment, some of the maids in this group can understand it, so they heard this person reply: "I know...... The two distinguished guests are the envoys of the Heavenly Empire! ”

"So...... Are these things for us to eat? Yu Hai still has one last glimmer of hope.

"Returning to the envoy...... This is a fine dining room specially designed to entertain distinguished guests! ”

Hearing this, Yu Hai was already angry, and secretly scolded this Korean monarch and minister for being too arrogant, and he didn't take his "envoy" in his eyes at all.

Sure enough, these people have already rebelled...... Yu Hai judged so.

At this time, the last food box was opened, and inside was a plate of brightly colored kimchi, and as soon as the smell came out, Yu Hai came up.

"That's your food?" Yu Hai asked coldly.

The maids also had the foresight, and they saw that Yu Hai was already unhappy, and they were all sincerely afraid.

"If the envoy is not satisfied, the slave and maid will immediately go and let the dining room be redone!" The maid who had just answered said tremblingly.

It's nothing to despise yourself, but if you don't take the Ming Dynasty in your eyes and Zhu Jinghong in your eyes, Yu Haike can't bear it.

I only heard him angrily scold: "Take these things away, take them all for me!" ”

"Yes...... It's ......"

Seeing that the envoy was so angry, the maids did not dare to delay at all, and put back all the food they had taken out.

As for the dish of their favorite kimchi, it was carefully picked up by the maid in the lead, and it seemed that she was afraid that it would come out a little bit.

And her cautious scene, once again saw that Yu Haiqi was not in a place, and directly stepped forward to slap the dish of kimchi, and then the plate shattered and made tea and scattered it all over the ground.

"...... Get out of here! ”

The maids were so frightened that they retreated one by one, and they didn't even bother to clean the pickles on the ground.

And Yu Hai's angry appearance really shocked Chen Yuntai, after all, he praised this good qi cultivation kung fu.

"These North Koreans are rude and hateful!" Yu Hai couldn't help but complain.

Chen Yuntai also saw those dishes just now, but he didn't feel anything about it.

He had been in North Korea for a long time, and he knew that this place was not rich, even if it was an official, it was just like that.

Chen: "Actually...... Alas...... Just bear with it! ”

Chen Yuntai wanted to explain a few words, but in the end he held back his words, after all, the North Koreans had already snubbed them.

"People in small places sit in wells and watch the sky, always thinking that they are amazing, always thinking that their little thing is the best in the world!"

Chen Yuntai was still complaining, and Yu Hai had gradually calmed down.

The two of them thought that they were being neglected, but in fact, in a hall in the depths of the palace, Li Xuan, the prince of Joseon, attached great importance to the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, and was convening important ministers to discuss countermeasures at this moment.

Through the news brought by Li Renbiao, everyone present already knew that the two people who came were here on the orders of King Xiang.

If it was an ordinary prince of the Ming Dynasty, everyone in North Korea would not be too nervous, but this was someone sent by King Xiang.

Who is King Xiang? It is the god of war of the Ming Dynasty, who is invincible, invincible, and invincible.

It is very likely that such a murderous person suddenly sends someone to spread the word, which is not a good thing.

What everyone is talking about is what these two people will say, and how the North Korean side should respond.

There were all kinds of possibilities, and there were many ministers present, and everyone had different associations, and then discussed countermeasures with their colleagues about what was said.

When the crowd was working together, the senior civil officials, represented by the left and right political discussions, basically did not speak at this time.

It's not that they don't speak today, but after Li Xuan killed people in the early stage, they rarely spoke in the court.

This is of course the result that Li Xuan wants, and without anyone buzzing in his ears, he can reform the country with peace of mind.

But at this time, Li Xuan really wanted these people to speak, consult for him and come up with ideas.

Although he hated these people, Li Xuan also had to admit that these high-ranking officials had been through the ups and downs of the sea for a long time, and they had to see the world much more thoroughly.

Chen Xiang...... What do you think about this? Li Xuan finally took the initiative to ask.

Chen Taimin, the leader of the council, can be called the head of the hundred officials in North Korea, and his protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials are all over North Korea.

And he himself is also a bull, Shizu Zhangwu went to Shendu to participate in the high school examination, and the palace examination was the fifteenth in the second grade.

Because he was from North Korea, he was summoned by Sejo himself, and that was more than 30 years ago.

"The Prince...... The top priority is to greet the envoy immediately, so as not to neglect others and cause unnecessary misunderstandings! ”

As soon as Chen Taimin spoke, Li Xuan was very unhappy in his heart, he hated this old guy's preaching tone and attitude the most.

As soon as Chen Taimin finished speaking, a eunuch outside entered the palace, and after coming to Li Xuan's side, he spoke in a low voice, informing him that the "envoy" was already angry.

Li Xuan was already very nervous, and when he heard this, his heart hung in his throat.

It can also be seen here that Chen Taimin saw things very thoroughly, so Li Xuan asked: "I also know that I should greet the envoy immediately, but I am afraid that I will not deal with it properly......"

Li Xuan's thoughts, Chen Taimin couldn't be clearer, he knew that this kid had a ghost in his heart, so he was so afraid to meet the envoy.

So simply, Chen Taimin didn't speak, anyway, the sky fell and there was a tall man on top.

For him, Li Xuan, a stupid person who disregards the etiquette system and presides over state affairs, should be taught a hard lesson by the Celestial Empire.

In fact, not only Chen Taimin can understand this matter, but also Liu Cao's judgment and some other people are also aware of the twists and turns inside, and these people are afraid of being responsible, so they just grind foreign workers.

Of course, most of the people who Li Xuan personally promoted are still a little lacking in skill, and they can't understand the situation and are still seriously analyzing it at the moment.

Li Xuan couldn't lie to himself, and after grinding for a while, he finally got up and said, "That's it...... Everyone, come with me to the Envoy first! ”

So under the leadership of Li Xuan, a number of high-ranking officials in North Korea set off one after another and came to the palace where Yu Hai and the others settled.

"King Shizixuan of Joseon, ask to see the envoy of the Heavenly Empire!"

The North Korean ceremonial officer shouted three times before Yu Hai came out of the room.

Although he is only a eunuch, although there is only Chen Yuntai by his side, Yu Hai's momentum is extraordinarily strong, and Tie Qing's face is a little unangry and arrogant.

Seeing this situation, the people of North Korea no longer doubted that the taste of this envoy of the Celestial Empire was too positive, and he could not learn it to this extent.

"The lord of the country is alive, why don't you come to see you in person? Could it be that it is not the country of North Korea, and it is no longer a vassal of my Ming Dynasty? ”

Yu Hai's questioning was very harsh, and it dealt a heavy blow to everyone present.

Li Xuan, who was already nervous, only felt dry at this time, and unconsciously felt a sense of panic in his heart.

"The envoy of Qiqi, my father was seriously ill and could not move, so he was unable to greet him in person...... This matter has long been known to His Majesty, and His Majesty sent a messenger to express condolences at the beginning of the year! ”

Li Xuan is not very human, and quickly organized the language, which perfectly blocked Yu Hai's interrogation.

Even the emperor knew that he was seriously ill, and he specially sent a messenger to condole, and at this time, Yu Hai would not be able to attack again.

"Today, on the orders of His Royal Highness King Xiang, we have something to convey to the lord of your country in person, and take me to see him immediately!" Yu Hai can only get down to business.

After stabilizing his mind, Li Xuan replied solemnly: "My father is seriously ill and difficult to govern, and now state affairs are presided over by his subordinates, if His Royal Highness King Xiang has instructions, the envoy will convey them to the subordinates as well!" ”

"The Prince...... I have made it very clear, and I want to convey it to the Lord of your country to your face! ”

"My father is seriously ill, and I can't stand the fright, and I hope that the envoy will forgive me!" Li Xuan bowed deeply.

When he took the lead in pleading, some officials followed and prayed, and some even knelt down directly.

"The Prince...... The prince strictly ordered, our family does not dare to disobey, and I advise the prince not to disobey, otherwise it will only bring humiliation on himself! ”

Yu Hai's words already have a threatening meaning.

Of course, this is not his on-the-spot performance, but when he was leaving, Zhu Jinghong set a good tone for him.

One of the important purposes of his visit to North Korea this time was to play the prestige of the suzerain, so that these people in North Korea could be more sober.

Because of the kimchi incident just now, Yu Hai was very angry, so he used this qi to exert himself extraordinarily.

"The prince may be able to despise our family, but if he despises His Royal Highness King Xiang, I am afraid that even if North Korea is overturned...... I can't protect the world! ”

Li Xuan is also a young man, and when he heard this naked threat, he was also angry and wanted to kill.

"Which is more important, the son of the world will decide himself...... Don't be unpredictable! Yu Hai's expression was indifferent.

At this time, he looked at Li Xuan's gaze, as if he was looking at a dead person.

And Yu Hai does think that Li Xuan, who has been targeted by Zhu Jinghong, should not live long.

Even he guessed that Li Hui, who had been contributing gold to the palace, was likely to take over Li Xuan's position in the future.

Although Yu Hai was just a eunuch, Li Xuan was still frightened at this time, so that he didn't dare to say a word in the same place.

Face made him unwilling to back down, and the serious consequences made him dare not ask for face, and he was already in a dilemma at this time.

It was also at this time that Chen Taimin, the leader of the council, said: "The prince ...... Since His Royal Highness King Xiang has ordered it, please ask the envoy to go to the king's bedroom! ”

"King Xiang is extremely wise, this move must have a deep meaning, let's just do it!"

Chen Taimin's words gave Li Xuan a step down.

The latter took the opportunity to say: "So...... According to what Chen Xiang said, it was just that my father was seriously ill and difficult to get up, and it was rude...... Don't be angry! ”

Perhaps realizing that he was not hard enough, Li Xuan's words at this time were much softer, and his expression and tone were even more respectful.

"Lead the way!" Yu Hai was still indifferent, and then walked down the steps.

Chen Yuntai followed closely, and at this time he realized that Zhu Jinghong was surrounded by Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, and his own ability was really nothing.

If you don't strictly spur yourself, you may not be able to make King Xiang pay attention to it...... Chen Yuntai thought so.

Under Li Xuan's lead, everyone walked towards the depths of the palace.

The cramped Korean palace made Yu Hai despise a little more, and Chen Yuntai was the same.

Soon, they arrived outside the Kangning Palace, which was the residence of King Yi Shuo of Joseon.

The door of the main hall was already open, and several medical officers were already waiting outside the door, and when they saw Li Xuan and others appearing, they greeted them.
