The Ryukyu musicians who had been waiting here for a long time began to play their instruments and played solemn and solemn music. "Bye!" "Xing!"
King Shangfeng and all the Ryukyu officials bowed four times. Cai Jian shouted again: "Kneel down!"
King Shangfeng then bowed again, then knelt down and kowtowed three times in a row, performing five bows and three kowtows. King Shangfeng continued to kneel and stammered in Chinese, saying: "I send my invitation to the elders.
All the elders of the Academy, I wish you all the best."
Zhao Yanhao nodded: "I will come back to Lingao to play."
After King Shangfeng got up, he took out another letter from his sleeve and handed it to Zhao Yanhao from Cai Jian. Zhao Yanhao knew that King Shangfeng had sent the memorial a few days ago and now it had been put on the ship. He couldn't help but wonder:
"What is this?"
"This is the endorsement of His Highness the King of Zhongshan." Cai Jian quickly reported.
"Oh?" Jiang Yuanzhi said with a smile, "You might as well read it and listen to it."
When Cai Jian saw King Shang Feng indicating with his eyes, he quickly said yes, then unfolded the letter and read aloud:
"Fengqi: I stole Feng from a remote place in the sea, and had no knowledge at all. I am grateful to the Heavenly Grace of the Elders of the Song Dynasty for my quasi-hereditary position as the king of Zhongshan! I also heard that angels came from afar and traveled across the ocean in danger, but it was because of Feng. Every day
I hate that the country is small and the people are poor, and the supply is sparse. When the angel first entered the museum, he cut off the old fees; when the shipowners presented the bill of goods, they were favored, so the settlement was set at a fair price and the transaction was fair. For fear of affecting the poor country, he pledged to donate seven
The banquet is limited to five banquets. Feng belongs to the ministers, so he thinks that etiquette is necessary. However, a small country has no respect, so it depends on the seven banquets to show some kindness. Now that it has been donated, there is no room for indulgence; there are many banquets.
All the gold has been returned, and I feel guilty! You cadres, spread the word about farming to the small country. The people who know about agriculture in our country are none other than relatives in the ceremony, and they also need to consult and ask for advice. The kindness of the Senate is particularly profound.
Thanks!
The angels were not allowed to stay many times, but they were more and more anxious to return. They followed the law and sent each elder to pay money and a mere knife, cloth, and earthly ritual as usual, but they were never accepted again. Sincere angels are pure and pure, and they are worthy of being elders of the kingdom; and they are rich.
As the master, I have no feelings for you, and my heart is really uneasy! Every time I am conferred, I never return to the boat in six months. This is because the angels respect the service and believe in it, and they are eager to restore the favor of the Senate. I don’t know that I have saved money for the small country.
These are all angels who have the heart of the cabinet and are considerate of everything in advance. They feel deeply in their hearts that even the subjects of the country say that angels are considerate of their subordinates. They have never been as good as Mr. Zhao. Unfortunately, the words are not very coherent, and the words can not be conveyed clearly.
Prepare for narration; therefore, I am specifically speaking for Cambodia, which is a little relaxing and accumulated. Fortunately, I apologize for being disrespectful."
After Cai Jian finished reading, King Shang Feng made a tearful gesture, covered his face with his robe sleeves and couldn't help sighing. At first glance, it seemed quite artificial, which made several senators feel funny and angry.
Zhao Yanhao smiled and said: "Thank you for your highness's praise, this is all my duty. I hope your highness will work hard and have long blessings." He bowed to King Shangfeng and others and walked towards the dock.
Later, Zhao Yanhao shook hands with Jiang Yuanzhi, Lu Yang and Huang Tianyu as they arrived at the dock.
"Everyone, please take care of yourself."
"I also wish you a safe journey."
"Where does the north wind come from in this summer? Just don't encounter a typhoon." Zhao Yanhao joked.
"The cycads are in bloom, so the north wind can't blow?" Jiang Yuanzhi pointed to the blooming cycads in the distance and said with a smile.
"Haha, I'd like to lend you some good words." Zhao Yanhao laughed twice. This was not the time to talk nonsense, so he took a quick step and jumped onto the landing boat.
After boarding the Waverider, when the sailors put away the landing boat, Zhao Yanhao stood at the bow of the ship and continued to wave goodbye to everyone on the shore - in addition to the elders, naturalized citizens, and Ryukyu officials who came to see him off, there were also
There are many Ryukyu people who come spontaneously, like mountains and seas. The most eye-catching thing is that they come to say goodbye to familiar guests. If they are like the envoys from the Song Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, each king will send a letter.
, I am afraid that this trip to sea will be a farewell to them forever.
Zhao Yanhao didn't express any emotion about this. He was afraid that he was too lax. These crew members had to go back to Lingao to stay in the quarantine camp for a few weeks. They should not be infected with any physical diseases, otherwise they would definitely be infected at the next elders meeting.
To be pulled out and criticized...
A whistle sounded throughout the sky above Naha Port. The Waverider and the Haikang slowly started to move towards the open sea.
Along the deck of the Waverider, Zhao Yanhao, accompanied by Zhao Kui, Li Renjun and Wu Xiangxian, walked from the bow to the stern. He continued to take out his binoculars and looked at the people on the Naha Port pier who had not dispersed for a long time.
Suddenly, a police officer came galloping on horseback from a distance. When he got behind the crowd of Ryukyu people, he got off his horse and without tethering his horse, he squeezed through the crowd and ran towards Yingentei.
The officer ran up to the team of Ryukyu officials who were turning around to return. He knelt down and kowtowed in front of King Shangfeng, as if he had said something. Suddenly, the originally orderly team became a mess, and all the Ryukyu officials seemed to be there.
They were whispering something to each other. Especially the Ryukyu official next to King Shangfeng who wore a red gold and five-color floating woven crown seemed particularly excited. He walked straight to Jiang Yuanzhi and his team, bowed to him, and said
What? Cai Jian, who was on the side, seemed very embarrassed when he heard this, and just kept shaking his head. Jiang Yuanzhi and the other three elders waved their hands and shrugged, looking helpless.
Seeing this, the Ryukyu official turned around and ran to the pier. He looked around for a long time, as if he wanted to board the ship - but the sailors near the pier had long been sent away by the officials because they had to hold a boarding ceremony. Now most of them
He was mingling with the nearby crowd and watching the excitement. When the Ryukyu official saw this, he sat dejectedly on the dock.
"What is going on?" Zhao Yanhao was a little confused, so he handed the telescope to Wu Xiangxian, "Look, is that Prince Regent Jincheng?"
Wu Xiangxian took the telescope, followed Zhao Yanhao's example, and brought the tube to his eyes, "So clear, so clear! Just like clairvoyance. Sir, is this the telescope mentioned in "Little Knowledge of Physics"?"
"Let you see who that person is, and if you don't care, change the subject," Zhao Yanhao responded angrily, "We will study the rest later."
"Well... to report back to you, sir, it is indeed." Wu Xiangxian nodded hesitantly.
This Prince Jincheng is the regent of Ryukyu. King Shangfeng's brother Shang Sheng and Zhao Yanhao have met many times at previous banquets and ceremonies, but on the other hand, they only nodded in greeting.
Although in Ryukyu, the position of regent has no real power and is just an honorary title like a grand master, it is the highest official position in Ryukyu above the three chief ministers and can only be held by the Ryukyu royal family. As a regent, he made such a move
, which really made Zhao Yanhao a little confused.
"What exactly is going on? Xiangxian, what do you think?"
"I don't know for sure." Wu Xiangxian lowered his voice and turned his head to one side, as if he was a thief.
"Huh?" Zhao Yanhao felt something was suspicious, and was about to ask more carefully when he saw the navy sergeant from before leading several navy soldiers with rifles and escorting Wu Xiangxian's book boy.
"What's wrong with you...?"
"Report to the chief!" the sergeant saluted, and then shouted loudly: "This is a woman."
"woman?"
"Chief, look." The boy from Bopu Port raised his hand and took off the bamboo hat on the head of the book boy.
"Ah?" Zhao Yanhao couldn't help but be shocked when he saw the face of this "book boy": "Really Crane Gold?"
"Zhao, Mr. Zhao..." Zhen Hejin lowered his head and shouted softly.
"Is the commotion on the shore because of Miss Zhen Hejin?" Zhao Yanhao turned his head and asked Wu Xiangxian directly, "Who is she? Tell me honestly."
"Zhen Hejin is the daughter of Prince Jincheng, the regent of Zhongshan Kingdom."
Suddenly, Zhao Yanhao's mind went blank: "You..."
"Sir, please don't blame him. I asked him to do this." Manazurujin suddenly raised his head and said.
"Why?"
"Because..." Zhen Hejin blushed with embarrassment, and finally plucked up the courage to say loudly: "I like adults."
Zhao Yanhao opened his mouth in astonishment and looked at Zhenhe Jin for a long time; Li Renjun, Zhao Kui, the sergeant, and the navy soldiers on the side also had their eyes widened, but they didn't know what to say.
A gust of sea breeze blew by, and Zhao Yanhao woke up from the silence and sighed softly: "I'm afraid I can't make the decision on this matter."
"Sir, do you want to send me back to my father?" Zhen Hejin looked sad, and his words were full of pleading.
"How could this happen? If I send you back now, I'm afraid I'll hurt you." Zhao Yanhao sighed: "To be honest, I also have a good impression of you."
After listening to Zhao Yanhao's words, Zhen Hejin had mixed feelings in an instant, just like the ups and downs of the East China Sea: "Then why can't the adults make the decision?"
"You are the princess of Zhongshan. Since the Song Dynasty Senate returned to its homeland, no senator has married a nobleman from another country. I think this matter must be returned to Lingao first and then be decided by the senators of the Senate."
Zhen Hejin nodded obediently and stood aside without saying anything.
"First go and send a telegram to Mr. Jiang Yuan and the others, and explain to them the whole story." Zhao Yanhao ordered Li Renjun.
"Understood." Li Renjun agreed simply, but scratched his head and left.
"Oh, I hope they can explain it clearly to Shang Sheng." Zhao Yanhao sighed and took a few steps on the deck. When he thought about how to send a telegram to Lingao to reduce unnecessary "interrogations", his head couldn't help but feel big.
A few points. But if you think about it carefully, the situation now is completely different from that during the public trial of Master Chang's morality. The elders can't do anything to themselves.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yanhao seemed to be relieved and stopped. He turned around and saw the scars on Wu Xiangxian's face. He couldn't help but feel funny and asked curiously: "Speaking of which, what's wrong with your face?"
What's going on?"
Wu Xiangxian just shook his head and smiled bitterly: "If I am lucky enough to tie a red rope between you and Zhenhe Jinzhi Siganashi, even if the grape trellis falls down, I will be willing to do so."
"That's it." After hearing this, Zhao Yanhao met Zhen Hejin's eyes, and the two couldn't help but smile knowingly.
