My wife is number one in the world

Chapter 2259 Promised?
Liu Mingzhi was lying on the fence and feeding the koi in the lake, when Sakai He's well-behaved voice sounded behind him.

"Message Sakai He, Japanese envoy, see His Majesty the Dragon Emperor, long live long live."

"No gift, sit down!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Emperor Dalong."

Liu Mingzhi silently turned around and sat upright on the bench, and carefully looked at Sakai Ka, who was sitting on the stone bench as if on pins and needles, looking extremely cramped.

Seeing Sakai Ka, who was about 20 years old and just in his early [-]s, dressed in the same attire as Sakai Ichiko many years ago, Liu Mingzhi shook his head with a light smile: "What? Are you nervous?"

Sakai Hemang nodded generously: "Yes, I was a little nervous, the night before we entered the palace to meet His Majesty, Mr. Wang taught us envoys a lot about the rules of the Dragon Court.

Lord Wang said that if we violated any of His Majesty's taboos and caused Your Majesty the Emperor to be furious, we would be beheaded.

Now there is only Bangshi alone facing His Majesty's majesty, and Bangshi is worried that if there is something wrong, he will offend Tianyan unintentionally.

So I was a little nervous. "

"Don't worry, although there are many rules in the palace, it's not so easy to kill someone's head, so don't be nervous.

It should be your first time to come to Dalong to pay homage to me, right?The Chinese language is not bad, and it is more fluent than that of some Xinmin and Jinmin who have just been ruled by Dalong.

Regardless of your appearance and clothing, I really thought you were a citizen of Dalong.

Where did you learn Chinese? "

"Reporting to His Majesty the Emperor, the envoy learned Chinese from her aunt. She once visited the Dragon Dynasty with the envoy's uncle."

Liu Mingzhi looked at Sakai He with a strange expression on his face, "Hiss, isn't your aunt Hoshino Sakai?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the name of the envoy's aunt is Sakai Hoshino.

The envoy dared to ask the emperor how he knew the name of the envoy's aunt?Could it be that the aunt of the state envoy also saw the emperor's majesty, your esteemed car?

Before boarding the ship, the uncle told the envoy himself that if His Majesty the Emperor is an old man who is not angry and pretentious, then he would be the Emperor Dalong whom he and his aunt met back then.

If it is a young talent, it is His Majesty the new emperor of Dalong.

No matter what your majesty is, the state envoys should represent them to express the Sakai family's high respect to His Majesty the Dragon Emperor.

It's just that His Majesty's appearance is so young and he's in his prime, so he probably hasn't seen the envoy's aunt, right? "

Liu Mingzhi picked up the herbal tea and took a sip, with a faint look of memory in his eyes: "Before your uncle and aunt let you travel across the ocean to pay homage to my great dragon, did they ever tell you about a great dragon named Liu Mingzhi?" Old friend?"

"Report to Your Majesty, I mentioned it, I mentioned it.

Uncle said that this old man named Liu Mingzhi was a son of a great family in the Jiangnan area of ​​Dalong, who gave him a lot of help back then, which made him unforgettable.

He also instructed the state envoy to pay a visit to His Majesty if that young master Liu was still in court, and to tell his uncle how grateful and nostalgic he was for him.

If that Mr. Liu has already returned to his hometown in the south of the Yangtze River, ask the envoy to go to Jinling in the south of the Yangtze River in Dalong as much as possible to pay a visit to Mr. Liu.

If the timing doesn't allow it, forget it.

In the future, if there is a chance, Uncle himself will come to Dalong to reunite with Mr. Liu's old friend! "

"I am Liu Mingzhi!"

Sakai He stood up in a daze, stared at Liu Mingzhi for a while in astonishment, and then remembered Wang Hezheng's explanation, not to keep staring at His Majesty the Emperor, otherwise he would be suspected of stabbing him.

Sakai He who reacted hastily lowered his head: "Isn't Your Majesty's surname Li? How could it be the Mr. Liu that uncle said?"

"Hehe. Things are a little twisted and bizarre, so I won't tell you the details."

"Yes Yes Yes!"

"Don't be restrained, just keep sitting!"

"Yes, yes, thank you, Your Majesty the Emperor!"

"Tell me about the situation in your Wa country! Your uncle Sakai sent you to meet me and ask me to reward you with a large number of weapons and armor. Are you planning to attack the territory ruled by the king of your Wa country?"

"Huh? This, this, this."

Sakai He shook his body, looked at Liu Mingzhi hesitantly, not knowing how to reply.

"There's nothing bad to say, your uncle has already stated the current situation of the Wa country in the letter of credence, and I have a general idea in my heart whether you say it or not.

It's just that the content of the national book is only a few thousand words, plus a long speech expressing his own respect for the Dalong Dynasty, the actual content about the current situation of the Wa Kingdom is only a few words.

So I can only let you explain one or two things to me.

After understanding the current situation in the Wa Kingdom, I can discuss with the officials how to reward you with the military equipment requested in the letter of credence.

Of course, if you don't want to say it, or if it's inconvenient to say it, I'm not the kind of person who is too curious, and I won't blame you.

It’s just that when the time comes, you will have to go to Wang Aiqing from Honglu Temple on the question of whether to reward the soldiers or not.”

"Speak! The envoy said."

"Pour yourself a cup of tea to moisten your throat, just speak slowly, I'm not in a hurry."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, thank you, Your Majesty."

Sakai He tremblingly poured a cup of tea and held it in his hand.

"Your Majesty, this matter has to start when the uncle and aunt of the state envoy wandered in Dalong and returned to our native land again.

At that time, the few remaining members of our Sakai family were hunted down like bereaved dogs and hid in Tibet, thinking that their uncle and aunt had been killed or buried in the ocean.

Unexpectedly, a few years later, Uncle and the others returned to the mainland with a large amount of exquisite porcelain, gorgeous silk, tea, and spices that we have never seen before, and secretly recalled us anonymous clansmen.

Of course, in addition to what the envoy said, there are four thousand sophisticated weapons hidden in the cabin.

We first helped my uncle sell those rare and habitable goods at high prices to raise money and food, recruited soldiers secretly, gradually grew stronger, and regained the original land of our Sakai family.

Relying on the excellent weapons brought back by my uncle, the surrounding families are not our opponents at all, and are gradually annexed by our Sakai family. "

Young Master Liu frowned: "Wait, are there only weapons but no armor? If you have armor, wouldn't your strength be improved to a higher level!"

"No, my uncle said that the craftsmen of the Dragon Dynasty only dared to make weapons and sell them to him. They didn't have any armor, bows and crossbows. No matter how much money uncle paid, it was useless. The craftsmen just dared not agree to his request."

A trace of slack flickered in Liu Mingzhi's eyes, and he nodded with a light smile: "Let's continue!"

"Yes.

Although the four thousand excellent weapons that my uncle brought back were very powerful, no matter how powerful the weapons were, they would wear out and become broken after a long time of use.

Uncle spent a lot of money to recruit many craftsmen, but the weapons that the craftsmen exhausted their efforts to forge were still not as good as the weapons brought back from the Great Dragon Dynasty ruled by His Majesty that had been cut open.

However, compared to other families, the military equipment is already very sophisticated.

Later, the territory of our Sakai family became larger and larger, and we were able to confront the territory ruled by the emperor from the north to the south, and our strength was evenly divided.

However, the forces under the king's command have a profound foundation after all. Our strength is indeed much stronger, but compared with the royal family in terms of armor and crossbow numbers, there is still a big difference.

When my uncle was frowning, he just learned from the spies that the sea fleet of the Dragon Dynasty had docked in Nagasaki and traded goods with the Yamamoto family.

At this time, Uncle suddenly realized, and his inspiration flashed.

Immediately send envoys to ask His Majesty the Emperor for help.

It’s just that the news was inadvertently found out by the ninjas of the royal family, and the royal family immediately sent people to the Yamamoto family in Nagasaki.”

"In the end, it became like this. Our country of Wa sent two envoys to meet His Majesty!"

"I see, it seems that although your Sakai family has reached the point where it can compete with the royal family, it will not be the opponent of the royal family after all in the long run!

After all, the background and strength of the royal family are much stronger than yours. "

Sakai He put down his teacup and knelt down in front of First Young Master Liu with a plop.

"Your Majesty the Emperor must agree to the envoy's request. My Sakai family is willing to regard Dalong as the suzerain from generation to generation.

Pay tribute every year and meet every year to express the respect of the Wa country to the Dalong Dynasty. "

"Get up first!"

"His Majesty the Emperor agrees?"
