"Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, someone once told me what you Ming said, but I didn't understand what it meant. Could you ask me for advice?"
The armies of both sides walked side by side, and Yin Fan III looked at the Iron Armored Three Bengzi who was following in the ranks, with envy flashing in his eyes.
Glancing at Zhu Zhangui, who was admiring the scenery, he remembered the words that lunatic alchemist mumbled before leaving, so he started talking out of nothing.
Zhu Zhangui was a little curious. He didn't expect that in this remote place, there were still people who had heard Daming's official dialect.
"But it doesn't matter!"
With permission, Yin Fan III recalled what the lunatic alchemist said that day, and said in an awkward Lingnan dialect: "Oh, people in the West really have a problem with their brains. They don't cherish such a good opportunity. What a fool!"
After listening to the awkward Lingnan dialect, Zhu Zhangui gave a dry cough, and replied with a somewhat unnatural expression: "This is the other party's complimenting you, saying hello to you."
The translator who was following looked at Yin Fan III with a strange expression, and translated the sentence.
Hearing the translation, Yin Fan III's expression was a little stiff.
Although the other party said it nicely, but from the strange eyes of the soldiers of Ming Dynasty around him, he could clearly guess this sentence, it must not be a good word.
The other party translated in this way, probably out of consideration for his own face, to forcibly change the meaning.
Good guy, before he even started talking, he made such a big joke. As soon as he turned over the mountain, he felt the gazes of the surrounding soldiers from Ming Dynasty. He wished he could get off his horse and dig a hole and bury his head in it.
It's embarrassing to be so embarrassing. I can't speak nonsense anymore if I don't understand the meaning of this foreign language.
Chapter 306: Da Ming territory, those who dare to trespass will be exterminated!
Yin Fan III chose the city to welcome everyone in the Ming Dynasty. He said it was a city, but in the eyes of Zhu Zhangui and others, it was at most a small town with a slightly larger population and a little wealth.
The low city walls, dirt streets, and various messy buildings piled up together, making people feel as uncomfortable as they looked.
"This West is nothing more than that!"
The old man sitting in the middle of the Three Bengzi looked at the messy buildings around him, as well as the listless civilians with dusty and messy clothes, with disdain and contempt in his eyes.
Although the people of Ming Dynasty were poor, they were very energetic. Looking around, they were full of energy, thriving and full of vigor.
But look at the people here, they are lifeless and their eyes are numb. They say it is a town, but in the eyes of the old man, it is more like a living tomb.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, what do you think of my town? Is it a very wealthy town in your Ming Dynasty?"
Entering the city, Yin Fan III noticed Zhu Zhangui and others, all looking at the surrounding buildings and people.Thinking that Daming and the others were surprised by the richness and prosperity of this city, they felt a little complacent, and deliberately asked Zhu Zhangui who was beside him.
Looking at the surrounding architectural scenes, Zhu Zhangui, who thought of the Lao Maozi's rural village in later generations, which was similar to this scene, heard the translation, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.
Where does this guy get his confidence from?
Is there anything comparable? The pig farms in Daming towns are all relatively clean.
Although there was some slander in his heart, Zhu Zhangui admitted with a smile on his lips.
"Yes, the city in front of you is indeed very prosperous, and it is only a little worse than the surrounding areas of our capital."
What is diplomacy?As long as it is not the Emperor of Life and Death, ordinary diplomacy is just commercial flattery.
Besides, if you praise the other party, you won't lose any meat, and what you say is the truth.
The city in front of me is indeed a little bit better than some poor villages around the capital.
Hearing Zhu Zhangui's praise, Yin Fan III laughed out loud.
"Your Majesty the Emperor Taisun praised us. It is our own efforts to develop into what we are. I believe Daming will catch up as soon as possible."
Zhu Zhangui glanced at him in astonishment, is this guy so thick-skinned, does he really not understand the truth, or is there a problem with the translation.
But then Zhu Zhangui realized that Westerners are different from Easterners, and there is no such euphemism in language.
To Westerners, the modest words spoken by Easterners are telling the truth, because they don't know how to be euphemistic, and everything they say is straightforward.
Zhu Zhangui touched his chin, smiled slightly and said nothing more.
Soon, under the eyes of the people of this small city, a huge team entered the castle in the center of the city.
"elder brother!"
Just as the line stopped, a young girl in western aristocratic clothes walked out of the castle with her skirt in her hands.
This young girl has blond hair and blue eyes, tall figure, protruding front and back, especially the white milk-like skin, which exudes a white light under the sunlight.
The most eye-catching thing is the white searchlight half exposed under the collar.
"It's vulgar!"
When the old man got out of the car, he frowned slightly when he saw the girl who ran over impolitely and her revealing clothes.
"Yulina, come quickly and meet the guest from Daming."
Yin Fan III, who got off the horse, stepped forward and hugged his younger sister, then took his hand, walked up to Zhu Zhangui, and introduced them to each other.
"His Majesty the Emperor, this is my younger sister, Yulina, and the person closest to me in this world."
Then he introduced Zhu Zhangui to his younger sister, "Youlina, this is His Royal Highness the Emperor Taisun from the Ming Empire in the East. This time, he came to our Liangzan country to promote friendly exchanges between the two sides."
In fact, when Yin Fan III introduced her, Yulina's beautiful eyes looked straight at Zhu Zhangui.
I am used to the rough skin and bearded faces of Western men, but it was the first time I saw Zhu Zhangui's neat oriental dress and Zhu Zhangui's vague aristocratic temperament, Yulina was attracted by it. Zhu Zhangui was deeply attracted.
This man is so handsome, is this the prince from the East?
Looking at Zhu Zhanguina's not-so-handsome but very intimidating face, Yulina blushed slightly, and slightly stretched out her white jade hands.
Although Zhu Zhangui had no contact with foreigners in his previous life, he had watched TV dramas and movies, and knew that the other party's hand was a hand kiss in the West.
Without reaching out, Zhu Zhangui smiled and bowed his hands.
"Beautiful Miss Yulina, it's a great honor to meet you."
Yin Fan III on the side thought that Zhu Zhangui did not understand Western etiquette, so he quickly explained the reason to the translator.
But before the translator gave it to Zhu Zhangui, Zhu Zhangui smiled and said to the translator: "I know their etiquette, but as the grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty, kissing a woman's hand is an insult to my identity. Let alone a Western woman."
Zhu Zhangui doesn't know how to kiss this girl's hand, he has a cleanliness freak, who knows how many men have chewed on this girl's hand.
Moreover, Zhu Zhangui also heard that the private life of Western nobles in this period was very chaotic. The men had countless mistresses, and those noble ladies had countless male favorites. Said it was very messy.
Don't look at the girl in front of her with a pure and lovely appearance, she might be playing tricks behind her back.
Naturally, it was impossible for the translator to translate Zhu Zhangui's original words, and expressed it euphemistically.
It also shows that in the East, except for her husband, a woman's body is not allowed to be touched by other men, or even more intimate.
After listening to the translator's translation, Yulina was not only not disappointed, but was even more attracted by Zhu Zhangui's gentlemanly behavior, and then moved a little further away from her brother.
The prince in front of him didn't like to have too much contact with other men, so even if he was with his own brother, he had to keep a certain distance.
After a brief introduction to each other at the door, Yin Fan III and Yulina invited Zhu Zhangui and his party to enter the castle.
When entering the castle, Yin Fan III also briefly described the town.
After his narration, Zhu Zhangui knew that the town in front of him was the fiefdom of Yulina, and he also understood why Yin Fan III did not return to Ryazan Castle, but came to this small town to the east.
In the simple exchange just now, Yin Fan III asked Zhu Zhangui's marital status more than once, and it seemed that he wanted to betroth his younger sister Yulina to Zhu Zhangui, so as to promote the development of a better friendship between the two parties.
It's a pity that Zhu Zhangui rejected it implicitly. Yulina is indeed very beautiful, but there is no shortage of beauties around Zhu Zhangui. Girls like Yulina are rare at best, and more importantly, Zhu Zhangui didn't want to marry a Westerner whose private life was very messy.
After all, no man would want to be unmarried with countless hats on his head.
Yin Fan III was a little inexplicably disappointed when he saw that Zhu Zhangui rejected his ambiguous expressions many times.
During the conversation on the way here, he already knew that the grandson of the emperor in front of him was the future heir of the Ming Empire, and his father, the crown prince, would inherit the throne at the end of this year.
And this grandson of the emperor was very powerful in the Ming Dynasty. Many businesses, armies, and a powerful navy were in his hands. It can be said that his status was unshakable.
At that time, Yin Fan III thought that if the two parties could promote a marriage relationship, then the future might be even greater for Ming to subsidize Liang Zan.
But he expressed his intentions cryptically many times, but Zhu Zhangui refused with a smile.
Yin Fan III couldn't figure it out.
Could it be that his younger sister is too ugly and does not conform to the oriental aesthetics.
For this reason, he also asked for an interpreter, and the answer he got was very beautiful, and he saw that it was not the kind of unconscionable compliment.
Then this is strange, my younger sister's appearance conforms to the aesthetics of the East, and she is also very beautiful in the eyes of Orientals, why is this His Royal Highness the emperor's grandson not tempted.
Although he already knew that Zhu Zhangui had several wives, he didn't care.
Didn’t the translator say that when you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken, when you marry a dog, you follow the dog, and when you marry into Daming, you have to follow the rules of Daming.
As long as Daming can support him and make Liang Zan stronger, whether his sister is happy or not, Yin Fan III doesn't care at all.
He has protected his sister for so many years, strictly guarded against letting her have too close contact with any man, and spent countless money on her, what is the purpose?It's not for the so-called family affection, but because I want to raise my younger sister and sell it for a good price in the future.
It's a pity that now a big customer has finally come, and the other party just doesn't like his sister. What is the problem? Why can't Yin Fan III figure it out?
In order to promote a good relationship with Daming, and have the opportunity to become Daming's henchman in the future, and then run amok throughout the West, Yin Fan III's dinner preparation can be said to be very adequate.
All kinds of meat are piled up on the whole table, and fruit drinks can be placed as much as you can, showing a tyrannical and rich posture.
In addition to these, Yin Fan III also thoughtfully prepared some dancers to perform dances during meals.
He has already found out from the translator that there is no habit of eating and dancing in the east, only the custom of sitting, eating and watching singing and dancing.
The banquet started at dusk. Zhu Zhangui and the old man led a group of generals into the living room under the warm invitation of Yin Fan III.
When it came time to arrange seating, there was a slight problem.
Originally, Yin Fan III placed Zhu Zhangui in the first place, but when he was seated, Zhu Zhangui let an old man sit in the first place.
Yin Fan III asked cryptically, worried that he might have missed some important person.
Later, Zhu Zhangui explained that he was relieved.
Zhu Zhangui explained to him that this was his housekeeper. Although he was a housekeeper, since his parents were busy with government affairs since he was a child, it was the housekeeper who brought him up.
Although the housekeeper is a servant, in Zhu Zhangui's eyes, he is like a grandfather.
Knowing the reason, Yin Fan III praised Zhu Zhangui again and again, praising Zhu Zhangui for being grateful and other nonsense.
As the banquet began, during the hot western dance performance, Yin Fan III held a wine glass and toasted Zhu Zhangui.
"His Royal Highness, my younger sister is very curious about Dongfang Daming. May I have the honor to explain to him the mysterious Dongfang?"
After pouring a glass of wine into his stomach, Yin Fan III smiled and pointed at Yulina who was following beside him and changed into conservative clothes.
He has already found out that Zhu Zhangui rejected his sister because his sister's clothes did not conform to the conservative thinking of oriental people.
So just before the banquet, he asked his sister to go back and change into clothes that would not show her clothes.
After finishing speaking, Yin Fan III jokingly added something.
"Actually, I'm curious too!"
Zhu Zhangui and the old man looked at each other slightly, knowing that it was time to show off their strength.
Zhu Zhangui coughed lightly, and said with a flat expression: "Actually, I have nothing to do with Ming Dynasty, but the territory is wider, there are more soldiers, more people, and more money."
Yin Fan III, who was looking forward to it, and Yulina were taken aback after hearing this. The answer is too simple.
Winking at her sister, Yulina walked forward with a smile and looked at Zhu Zhangui with admiration.
"In other words, there are a lot of troops in the east, isn't it tens of thousands of people?"
Zhu Zhangui cast a glance at Yulina, knowing that this girl was sent by Yin Fan III to find out with a beauty trick.
Although Yin Fan III already had plans to form an alliance with Daming, but before that, he still wanted to know how strong Daming was.
But what Zhu Zhangui said just now was too general, he really couldn't judge how strong Daming was.
He can't judge how strong Da Ming is, which makes him unable to decide whether to become an ally or to be a dog's leg for the other party.
Each of these two choices is related to the future fate of the Liangzan Kingdom, so he must inquire clearly.
"Tens of thousands of people, hehe, little girl, do you have any misunderstandings about our Daming army?"
Before Zhu Zhangui could speak, the old man who was cutting high-quality beef with a knife replied with a smile in Mongolian.
The old man can speak Mongolian. After all, he is a general in the north. If he doesn’t know his opponent, it will be very troublesome to rely on a translator to translate when he catches his tongue.
Hearing the words of the housekeeper of His Royal Highness, Yulina innocently looked at the old man.
"Mr. Steward, what you mean is that your Ming army has more than tens of thousands of troops."
For this old housekeeper, Yulina, who was inexplicably cautious, naturally had to be more polite.
Isn't there a word to say?
