I am the king of the dead

Zhu Qiyu closed the letter of credence and said, "I see, the two North Korean envoys, can you still stand up?"

Jiang Mengqing and Jin He stood up tremblingly, stood aside, staggered, and fell to the ground.

Lu Zhong led the correcting officer and carried the two of them down.

It's not that Daming is unkind, Zhu Qiyu canonized this prince as the king of Joseon. With the method of this prince Li Hongwei, he still wants to force Li Yu to rebel.

Li Hongwei is just a trumpet Jianwen Emperor.

It's not as good as Emperor Jianwen, at least Emperor Jianwen fought Zhu Di for four years.

After one round, Li Hongwei knelt down.

The third envoy was Huaiji, Prime Minister of Ryukyu Kingdom. He was from Suzhou and Ming Dynasty, a scholar of Ming Dynasty, and a long history sent by Ming Dynasty to King Zhongshan.

But he has been in the Ryukyu country for decades, and the Ryukyu country is his second hometown.

Huai Ji was wearing the official uniform of Zhongshan Wang Changshi that was given to him by Daming back then. He knelt tremblingly on the ground, bowed three times and kowtowed five times. Before he could speak, tears were already falling.

"Your Majesty!" Huai Ji finally burst into tears.

In front of the hall, Lu Zhong was a little bit embarrassed, Zhu Qiyu shook his head, Lu Zhong and other officials who corrected the ceremony did not throw out the pregnant machine.

Huai Ji bowed his head and followed his ears, knelt on the ground and cried in pain.

"Your Majesty, there has never been any disobedience in Ryukyu. Whether it is fish oil or any tribute, as long as the Ming needs it, the Ryukyu area is small and the people are small, but there has never been any time when it does not meet the needs of the Ming."

"Your Majesty, why abandon the Ryukyu people and ignore them, Your Majesty!"

Huaiji's words can be described as extremely disrespectful. In the Fengtian Palace, to accuse the emperor of the Ming Dynasty like this is no longer a simple act of disrespect.

But Zhu Qiyu didn't punish him.

Among the tributaries of the Ming Dynasty, only Ryukyu can be called a filial son, and the others are not.

North Korea always advertises itself as a filial son, but in fact, there are rebellious bones in the back of the head. Once the Ming Dynasty's state affairs decline, it will immediately start making troubles in the "Fan Guo Yi Zhu".

Ryukyu has always depended on Ming for a living. Whether it is military, political or economic, he has never thought of independence, let alone bargaining with Ming by taking advantage of his superior geographical location.

But Ming lost its invincible fleet, and Ryukyu was in bad luck.

"I already know about the affairs of the Ryukyu Kingdom." Zhu Qiyu said solemnly: "The Zhoushan Navy is being formed. I will definitely give the Ryukyu people an explanation for the death of the Ryukyu Kingdom!"

"Whether they are pirates or Japanese pirates, they have only one end, and that is sinking into the sea."

The location of the Ryukyu Kingdom is really important, Wan Guo Hailiang, that is the best place for Ming to enter the Pacific Ocean.

The pirates supported the eldest prince Zhilu, and the Japanese pirates supported Wang Shubuli. They fought in Shuri Castle and burned Shuri Castle.

Pirates and Japanese pirates have brought misery to Ryukyu, and they must pay the price.

It depends on the owner to beat a dog, and he dared to beat the only true filial son of Ming Dynasty.

"Thank you Daming for your kindness." Huai Ji still bowed his head and listened to his ears, but the miserable weeping never stopped.

It is the father's fault to raise or not teach. Daming gave birth to Ryukyu but failed to raise it well. This is the father's fault.

Zhu Qiyu accepted the opportunistic questioning.

Zhu Qiyu continued: "The king of Ryukyu, Shang Jinfu, is dead. Shang Jinfu has a younger brother, Taijiu. I will give him the surname Shang. When Ryukyu is restored, I will allow him to return."

Huai Ji immediately said loudly: "Your Majesty, Shang Taijiu has arrived in Tianjin Wei, and he does not intend to return to Ryukyu."

"Ryukyu is the land of ten thousand nations. My king, Shang Taijiu, is really powerless. I hope His Majesty will be merciful. My king wants to live in Tianjin Wei forever, but it will never happen."

Huaiji means offline kingship.

Shang Taijiu, these three characters indicate that the Ryukyu side wants this surname and inherit the Ryukyu throne.

But Shang Taijiu did not intend to return to Ryukyu to continue to be king.

They can't control the place at all.

Might as well be an offline king.

Before Huaiji accompanied Shang Taijiu to the capital, they had already determined the necessity of the offline king system.

Forever, in exchange for Ming's military and political inclination, and for Ryukyu to become prefectures and counties, this is beneficial to the peace and prosperity of the people of Ryukyu.

And Shang Taijiu's meaning is very clear, he is obviously more conducive to the interests of Ryukyu in Daming.

For example, the fish oil business in Ryukyu is the pillar industry of Ryukyu, but in the past it was always subject to the merchants of the Ming Dynasty and could not sell for much.

However, when Shang Taijiu was in Daming, the people of Ryukyu boiled fish oil and could resell it directly through Shang Taijiu's hands.

Moreover, every time an envoy is sent, what to say and do is arranged by the court's Ministry of Rites, and their demands cannot be expressed.

But there is a king in Daming and Tianjin. No matter what happens in Ryukyu, Ryukyu has its own voice in Daming.

Zhu Qiyu blinked his eyes. Although he had heard Li Binyan, Tang Xing and others talk about this weird pattern many times, he never expected that Liuqiu really planned to do this.

Can the offline king system really work?

"Eternal life?" Hu Yan's voice was a little high-pitched.

"It will never last forever, this is the seal and ribbon of the State Letter." Huai Ji took out the Ryukyu Gold Seal and State Letter from his sleeve.

For Shang Taijiu, he escaped death by a narrow margin.

After Shuri Castle was completely destroyed, Shang Taijiu often dreamed back to that nightmare scene. If the fans of Tenshou Temple hadn't sent him away at the first time, he would have escaped the end of death.

It is much easier to be the king of Ryukyu in Ming Dynasty than to be the king of Ryukyu in Ryukyu.

Pretentiously, he said loudly: "Your Majesty, fish oil is a drug in Ming Dynasty, so it can be sold in two ways."

"Ryukyu citizens risked being swallowed by the ocean, braved the wind and waves, fished and boiled oil, and the hard work involved cannot be explained in a few words."

"However, the merchants of the Ming Dynasty deliberately lowered the price and redeemed it by the catty. A catty was only worth a hundred coins. Only when paying tribute, the 30 catties would have the original price. The Ryukyu has been suffering for the Ming maritime merchants for a long time."

"Your Majesty! Those maritime merchants are just bullying Ryukyu citizens, aren't they Ming people?!"

"The people of Ryukyu have 36 surnames who immigrated from Fujian. The people of Ryukyu, from savages to citizens, all imitate Ming Dynasty and dare not have the slightest difference."

"Your Majesty, have pity on the Ryukyu people."

Huaiji sued the Daming Maritime Merchant, this is the pain of Ryukyu.

But Ryukyu is on the outside, and Ming is on the inside. If you are bullied, you can only fight hard.

Huai Ji no longer cared so much, and the Ryukyu people were struggling in pain.

What Huaiji said is true. Fish oil in Ryukyu is the largest pillar industry in Ryukyu, but it is controlled by the Ming maritime merchants. The marine merchants would rather dump the fish oil into the sea than let the price of fish oil be reduced.

Because of that, they earn more.

Zhu Qiyu nodded and said, "Then settle down."

"Thank you Your Majesty for the grace of rebuilding." Huai Ji kowtowed heavily, stood up after a long time, and stood aside.

The one who went up to the hall again was the Japanese envoy, Tomiko Hino.

The route between Wa country and Ming Dynasty can be traveled once a month, and back and forth once every two months, but Hino Tomiko did not return to Wa country, she stayed in Tianjin Wei.

Hino Tomiko was a woman, and she went to the hall wearing a veiled hat, and briefly talked about the situation in the Wa Kingdom, Zhu Qiyu didn't have much communication with her.

The lengthy reception of envoys in Fengtian Palace was finally over, Zhu Qiyu stood up, holding the book on spirals, Archimedes' book in his hand, and was about to study the curling method of downstream silk.

Taking advantage of the seven consecutive days of vacation, at least wind up the hairspring.

Nikolaoz returned to the hall worried, but he did not tell Elena about seeing the Ottoman envoy in the hall.

Elena is an elf, these things are completely unnecessary, but the Ming Dynasty Hall is a sieve, and Elena has obviously heard about it.

"Is that Kang Chengzhi more useful than us?" Elena's eyes were slightly gloomy.

Nikolaoz avoided the important point and said: "Your Majesty has already agreed to get married, so you don't need to worry about it."

"No, you answer me." Elena asked solemnly.

Nikolaoz shook his head and said, "According to Daming's etiquette, you shouldn't care about these things!"

"You will soon be the concubine of the Ming Emperor, and it's not good for you to care about these things! Zoe, your father and your uncle only want you to live a good life, don't have so many burdens, okay?"

Elena said still a little unwillingly: "But the attitude of the Emperor Ming is very important."

But Nikolaos shook his head frequently, and said with great conviction: "Zoe, when you enter Tai'an Palace, don't say these things, don't say a word, we just want you to live a good life."

"Let the past go, you shouldn't move forward with shackles on your back."

Chapter 466 Helixes with Constant Velocity, Equal Distance, and Equal Velocity Ratio

Nikolaoz failed to convince Elena in the end, Elena was the princess and Nikolaoz was the governor.

Nikolaos thought for a long time and said: "The Ottoman Kingdom and Daming have a good relationship, and they also have a smile on their faces and hide a knife behind their backs. This is hard to explain, and you will understand in the future."

"In comparison, I think you should know more about what kind of person your fiancé is."

Elena breathed a sigh of relief, Governor Nikolaoz is a very wise person, otherwise he would not be the last envoy.

"My fiancé, what kind of person is he?" Elena asked with interest, putting her hands on the back of the chair, her cheeks on the back of her hands, and asked with big eyes.

Nikolaos thought for a while and said: "The Ming expeditionary army in Samarkand is actually a defeated army, and its name is Wala."

"To be precise, it is similar to the Germanic barbarians wanting to break through the city of Rome. The city of Rome in Ming Dynasty did not have slaves to cooperate."

"The Emperor of Daming led the army of Daming and knocked out Wala's front teeth mercilessly."

"Then Emperor Ming started his journey. He first defeated Oala's second attack at the gate of the capital, and then launched an expedition not long after."

"Yes, from my point of view, the war that is enough to be called an expedition, in Daming's narrative, is just to regain lost ground and train the army."

"With the cooperation of many traitors, the Ming army still won the victory, just as heroic as the previous Ming army."

Elena asked suspiciously: "Governor, whose traitor is that, the traitor that the barbarian called Oala placed in Daming? Or the traitor that Daming placed in Oara?"

Nikolaoz said helplessly, "It's the former."

"Oh my god, it's really unbelievable." Elena said in horror.

Nikolaoz sat up straight and said, "There was a general named Yang Jun who foiled their plot."

"Da Ming really has a hell, and those traitors are still alive now, just living in hell, suffering endless reincarnation."

"One of the emperor's wives is also working in the Imperial Hospital, and even goes to the Jieyuan Hospital to be on duty."

"It sounds a bit unacceptable, but that kind girl you saw is also the messenger of hell."

The three brothers of his family are still glowing and glowing in the Jiejie Hospital, illuminating the progress of Ming Dynasty medicine.

Bypassing the degree, the three brothers of the Qu family contributed a lot of data on how to measure the use of Mengpo soup... Mabo soup.

Daming is grateful for the contributions of the three brothers.

Elena was stupefied. Why did that wise emperor leave the Hell Envoy by his side?

Nikolaoz said with a sense of regret: "After that, Ming won what they called military victories, political victories, and economic victories in succession during the expedition."

"With these triple victories, Da Ming named it a phased victory."

"With the establishment of the Chaoguan, the continuous promotion of the Farm Law, and the construction of the Jingtai Anmin Canal under the joint military and civilian officials, the Ming Dynasty has achieved a staged victory in the expedition."

"I don't really know what their stage wins are, or how many stages there are."

Elena said with a sudden realization: "Is that why he is so domineering? I mean, His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, this man lying on the silk."

Nikolaos shook his head and said: "After the army returned to the Roman city of Ming Dynasty, while the army was being repaired, a noble rebellion appeared in the south of the vast land of Ming Dynasty."

"Daming is the same as us. We have two capitals. One is Rome and the other is Constantinople. But Rome is not in our hands."

"But the capital in the southern part of Ming Dynasty doesn't seem very smart, they started a rebellion."

Elena said full of disgust: "Under the rule of such a military emperor, they dare to rebel and live too comfortably."

Nicolaus highly agreed with Elena's statement, and said with a lot of emotion: "The emperor of Ming Dynasty handed over all the affairs of the country to his uncle, and then went to conquer the rebellion himself."

Hearing this, Elena immediately shook her head and said, "It's not a wise decision, that's his uncle, if his uncle wants to fight against him, and there are rebellions in the north and south of Ming Dynasty, wouldn't that be a big problem? "

Nikolaoz leaned back in his chair and did not speak for a long time.

Seeing that the governor ignored him, Elena asked, "Is there something wrong with what I said?"

"It has been proven countless times that once an emperor leaves his throne, he loses everything."

There were so many examples that Elena didn't know where to start for a while.

Nicolaus looked at Elena's puzzled look, showed a kind smile, and continued: "Your way of thinking is right, your fiancé, there were two choices at that time."
