Daming Junior Scholar

Thinking of this, Zhengde hurriedly asked someone to hand over the letter from the foreigner, and when he was about to hand it to He Jiaan, Yang Tinghe, who had been silent at the side, suddenly said, "Slow down, I have a few words, I want to ask this Mr. He."

He Jia'an didn't know Yang Tinghe, but since he was able to stand in the Imperial Academy, he must be a person of certain status, so he returned the salute and said solemnly: "Please ask your lord."

"I just want to ask, from whom did you learn your ability to understand foreign characters?" Yang Tinghe has been curious about this question for a long time, and pointed out He Jiaan's weakness when he opened his mouth.

"This..." He Jia'an was taken aback for a moment, and after blinking his eyes, he suddenly said: "If I say that someone taught me in a dream, would you believe me?"

"Of course I don't believe it." Yang Tinghe shook his head. "Since that's the case, please make a choice, my lord. Do you want me to continue translating this letter, or hold on to this matter?"

Chapter 708 Fanbang etiquette

As the chief assistant of the cabinet of Ming Dynasty, Yang Tinghe can be said to be an uncompromising person. Even Zhengde had to consult him first when encountering problems, so when he heard He Jiaan's words, he was taken aback for a moment, and when he realized it, but it is

He looked at He Jiaan angrily and amusedly.

Didn't I hear it wrong, he is just a grassroots person, and he came to threaten me?

After being stunned for a few breaths, Yang Tinghe finally realized that he had heard correctly just now. He Jiaan did not answer his question, but instead gave him two choices, either let him continue, or... let him Walk.

It's easy to let him go, but what happens after he's gone?Without He Jiaan, who can translate this foreigner's words?Do you want this Daming's face?In an instant, Yang Tinghe's mind turned over countless reasons, and he deliberately chose the first one to let He Jiaan continue, but

I was a little embarrassed, after all, I was a chief assistant who succumbed to a commoner, which really made me feel a little embarrassed.

At this embarrassing moment, Zhengde on the side suddenly interjected: "Since He Qing doesn't want to say it, there must be his reasons, so let's stop asking, He Qing should translate the letter." Bar."

With Zhengde's order, Yang Tinghe naturally took this opportunity to go down the steps, looked at He Jiaan, and now he was curious about what was written in that letter.He Jiaan slowly opened the letter paper, and when he saw the first sentence, the expression on his face became a little weird. As expected, he was not mistaken, and the words that Cai Yu showed him were copied from it. Yes, at this time He Jiaan was

After hesitating for a while, I didn't know whether to translate it truthfully or according to Cai Yu's idea.

At this time, everyone's eyes were all on He Jiaan's face. Seeing his strange expression, Zhengde couldn't help asking curiously: "What's going on with He Qing? Don't you know the words on it? "

He Jiaan shook his head hastily, and said with some distress: "Actually, I encountered a small problem, a... similar to the problem of title."

"The address?" Zhengde blinked in confusion. As the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, he never felt any problems with the address, but this time the address of the foreigner was a little different from what he usually heard.

He Jia'an explained: "The way the Franji people speak is different from our people from the Ming Dynasty. For example, when they see their monarch, they usually perform this kind of etiquette."

Then, He Jia'an stood upright facing Zhengde, then his lower body didn't move, his upper body bent down, made a ninety-degree salute, and then returned to the original state.

"Oh, so it is." Zhengde nodded slowly, and suddenly said to Yang Tinghe: "Yang Qing, I think this kind of etiquette is quite simple, why don't we use this etiquette in the future?" Yang Tinghe was stunned when he heard it. Although everyone knew that the emperor was not very reliable, he wanted to change the etiquette that had been passed down for hundreds of years with a single mouth.

How could Ting He accept it? He simply shook his head and said without discussion: "Your Majesty, don't even think about it. Even if the minister agrees, the other ministers will not agree."

"Hey, it's a pity." Zhengde felt like a mirror in his heart, sighed lightly, and then said, "He Qing, continue." He Jiaan finally saw Zhengde's unreliable side. Although he was surprised in his heart, his face But still without any expression, he continued: "Franji people are not only very different from us in terms of etiquette, but also when they say hello.

It's not the same, for example, when two men met on the street, we clasped fists, but they shook hands. "

"Handshake?" This kind of etiquette stunned everyone in the imperial study room. They imagined the image of two men shaking hands in their minds, and they couldn't help but feel sick.

At this moment, Su Yunya, who hadn't opened her mouth all this time, couldn't help asking: "Then what if you meet a woman?"

He Jiaan glanced at her, hesitated for a moment, and explained first: "I'm just talking about things, you must not think about other things, and also, please do not hit people."

Su Yunya couldn't help being taken aback, why is Franji so strange, can a man and a woman still fight when they meet?

Just as she was in a daze, He Jiaan came over. Under the eyes of everyone, he suddenly bent down and stretched out his palm. Su Yunya blinked her eyes, and then heard He Jiaan say: "Put your left hand on."

This... by accident, Su Yunya stretched out her hand. Before she realized what it was like to hold hands, she felt as if the back of her hand had been pecked by something. What is the back of the hand

When Jia An came to kiss him, his eyes immediately turned red, and he stretched out his hand to grab He Jia An, regardless of whether this was the Imperial Study Room or not.

"I'll kill you bastard."

He Jiaan had expected Su Yunya to have such a reaction long ago, and he hurriedly explained: "This is the etiquette of Frangji, I just reminded you."

"Don't hit, don't... oops!" Accompanied by He Jiaan's tragic voice, there was laughter in the room. Except for Yang Tinghe who didn't know the relationship between these two people, the others had already known the relationship between the two. The individual started to fight in front of Zhengde, suddenly

Sometimes I don't know whether to cry or laugh.

On the other hand, Zhengde watched with relish, clapped his hands with a smile and said: "Senior sister is indeed a chivalrous woman, but the etiquette of this Frangji man is quite interesting, and I will have to learn from it in the future."

He Jia'an, who stopped fighting, finally realized that this Zhengde is a famous unreliable emperor in history, and he is very feminine, which can be seen from the thousands of women of all ethnic groups collected in this room.

Back then, Chen Yueying married herself off in a hurry because Zhengde wanted to draft girls from all over the world.

It's too late to regret now, He Jia'an can only hope that Zhengde will forget about this matter as soon as possible, and don't cause any trouble for others.After laying the groundwork so much, He Jiaan finally said: "The way Franji greets us is also different from ours. For example, when I come to see His Majesty, I want to say 'Long live my emperor', but this Franji is different. , they generally say 'Dear Sir

Next, hello' that's it. "

Although the way of addressing them is different, it doesn't sound as strong as Long Live. Zhengde shook his head and said, "This kind of saying is not very pleasant, but Long Live sounds better." It seems that I didn't guess wrong. Zhengde is still used to the way of greeting in the past, so he knows what he should say. He opened the letter that Ronaldo brought, and He Jiaan read: "His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, my emperor

Long live long live..."

For no reason, He Jiaan added a few words in front. If these words were told to Ronaldo, he would be full of surprise. This was not what his own governor said. He Jiaan completely changed the facts.On the contrary, Zhengde listened very comfortably, and then he heard He Jiaan read the words on the letter paper sentence by sentence. After He Jiaan read it from the beginning to the end, Zhengde frowned slightly, looked at Yang Tinghe and asked suspiciously: "Yang Qing, what is the idea of ​​this Franji? And where is Macau?"

Chapter 709

Although Yang Tinghegui is the chief assistant of the cabinet, he was a little dazed when he suddenly heard an unfamiliar place name. After blinking his eyes, he could only say helplessly: "Your Majesty, as a minister, go back and check, as soon as there is news Just report back to His Majesty.

"

After talking for a long time, I just don’t know.Zhengde sighed slightly, and he didn't know if he was dissatisfied with the chief assistant. Looking at the other people in the room, Duan Siqun would definitely not know about it, and Su Yunya was terrified too. As for He Jiaan... just forget it, he so what a scholar

How can we know.

Just when Zhengde lost his interest and was about to hand over the matter to Yang Tinghe, and then asked He Jiaan to translate a letter back to foreigners, He Jiaan suddenly said: "Your Majesty Qizuo, this Macau grassroots knows."

"Oh?" Zhengde was a little surprised, and said, "Let's hear it."

"Macao is located at the southernmost tip of Fujian Province, with a superior geographical location and a good natural port."

"Oh..." Zhengde pondered for a while, Fujian Province is already far away in his heart, the southernmost tip of Fujian Province, isn't that a place like poor mountains and bad waters?

This group of Francbots is really interesting, what are they doing all the way there?There is even a 100-year lease.

After hesitating for a while, Zhengde turned his head and asked, "Master Yang."

"The minister is here."

"Just now you also listened to what He Qing said, so please tell me what you think."

"I think that Macau is located in a remote place, and there are no resources other than the port. Since Franji wants to open a port there, there is nothing wrong with it, but..." Yang Tinghe hesitated.

Zhengde glanced at him again, and then asked, "Just what?"

"It's just that the ancestors said that 'a piece of wood should not go into the sea'." After Yang Tinghe finished speaking, he took a careful look at Zhengde.If it were other emperors, I am afraid that they would take the ancestral precepts as a dogma and would not dare to violate them at all, but an emperor like Zhengde didn't care about the ancestral precepts at all. He hesitated for a while, shook his head and said: "It's been so many years

Yes, the situation has changed a long time ago, let's put aside the ancestral teachings, as for Macau, I think..."
