That's right, why do we have to agree to your request?Why?
In fact, just after entering the side hall, Jones had already noticed Zhu Song. After all, Zhu Song had had in-depth exchanges with him, and he even praised Zhu Song for his politeness, kindness, and celebrity style.
But now, what kind of celebrity style is clearly a roaring tiger and wolf!
"Why, stop talking?" Zhu Song said with a sullen face, "Don't forget that this is not your Eastern Roman Empire, and your emperor can't control me, Daming. Foreign envoys must always remember their identities, You can't cum, otherwise, even if I kill you, your fucking death will be in vain!"
After Zhu Song finished these words, Jones' complexion had changed, becoming sickly pale.
"Brother Song!" At this moment, Zhu Song had finished singing the white face, and it was time for Zhu Di to sing the red face.
Seeing Zhu Di glared at Zhu Song fiercely, he said, "How can you talk like this to the foreign envoy? After all, we are the master and the other is the guest, so how can we act like the master suppressing the guest? Hurry up, go out!" Make an apology!"
"Uh, yes!" Zhu Song put on a black face on purpose, turned his head to look at Jones, and said reluctantly: "Miss Jones, I'm really sorry, my king has made a mistake, please Foreign envoys don’t blame me!”
Well, the bad guys and the good guys are called you Daming people, what else can I do?Unforgiving?
Although he was depressed and wanted to spurt blood, Jones still said: "It's okay, Your Highness the King of Han! It's the foreign minister who made the mistake first, and shouldn't talk to His Majesty Daming in a natural manner."
When he said this, Jones knelt down on the ground with a plop, and said to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, what the foreign minister said before did not mean to be arrogant, and please His Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty..."
"Oh, foreign envoy, what are you doing?" Looking at Jones who was kneeling on the ground with his head on the ground, Zhu Di deliberately put on a somewhat embarrassed expression, and said, "You are just conveying a literary strategy. It's just the order of Er I, how can I blame you? Quick, get up!"
"Thank you, Your Majesty, Emperor Daming." Jones, who thought he had escaped a catastrophe, quickly stood up, and said to Zhu Di with a pleading expression on his face: "Your Majesty, Emperor Daming, look at the competition..."
"It's not that I can't compete with people from the Eastern Roman Empire." Zhu Di looked at Jones and said slowly, "It's just that you have to let me know what you want to compete with, right? You can't, I Your eyes are smeared here, but you have come prepared, isn't it too bad for me, Daming?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty the Ming Emperor, how could foreign ministers do such shameless things?" Jones hurriedly replied: "Your Majesty, My Majesty Wenzel I of the Eastern Roman Empire, I heard that there is a thing that has been passed down from the Ming Dynasty to the present, called For 'playing games', our Eastern Roman Empire searched the entire world, and finally recruited a 'player', named Belofin, to play a game of chess with the 'player' of Ming Dynasty!"
The so-called "Yi" is Weiqi, which was called "Yi" in ancient China and "Go" in the West. Weiqi was said to be made by Emperor Yao. It was recorded in the Spring and Autumn and Warring States Periods. European and American countries.
Go contains rich connotations of Chinese culture and is the embodiment of Chinese culture and civilization.
"You said you want to play chess with my Ming people?" Zhu Song looked at Jones with a strange face, and then he automatically made up his mind. The scene of a blond foreigner playing chess with a Ming man in Hanfu is really weird. !
"Yes, Your Highness King Han!" Jones didn't dare to provoke Zhu Song, and replied humbly: "This is only the first item! Next, I, the Eastern Roman Empire, would like to compete with musicians from Ming Dynasty."
Le Yi?This point is easy to understand. Although the Ming Dynasty had the five-tone and twelve-tone rhythms as early as the Zhou Dynasty, namely 'Gong, Shang, Jiao, Zheng, and Yu', the western rhythms seem to be seven scales. It seems that the Eastern Roman Empire These guys want to win the rhythm.
"Is there a third competition?" Zhu Di suddenly asked, "Would you like a martial arts competition?"
"Martial arts contest?" Jones was stunned for a moment, and then pouted, "Your Majesty, the martial arts contest is an act of barbarians. Naturally, we have a third competition. According to the records of our Eastern Roman Empire, the ancient Eastern Empire, during the Warring States period , a game called "Cuju" became popular. This game can not only entertain the body and mind, but also assist military strategists in training. "Cuju" spread to our Eastern Roman Empire. Before coming to Ming Dynasty this time, His Majesty Wenzel I, Specially asked the foreign minister to bring a 'Cuju' team, wanting to compete with Daming's 'Cuju' team."
'Cuju', 'Cu' has the meaning of kicking, kicking, and kicking. 'Ju' was originally a ball covered with leather and filled with rice bran.Therefore, when "Cuju" was left to Zhu Song's previous life, it was actually football, playing football.
This Wenzel I is really interesting. There are three things in the competition, and two of them were invented by Huaxia. For Huaxia, the music art has a long history and a long history.
What is the Eastern Roman Empire trying to do?Do you want to overwhelm Daming in terms of inheritance?
"Is there any more?" Zhu Song continued to ask, shaking his confused head, "If there are any more, you should hurry up and say that the imperial court should prepare the test venue in advance, right?"
Jones shook his head and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, Your Highness King of Han, I only want to compete with these three things in the Eastern Roman Empire. If His Majesty the Emperor of Ming agrees, then please set a time for the competition!"
"Oh, that's it!" Zhu Di rubbed his chin, and after a while he said: "After half a month! In half a month, I also need to arrange someone to prepare a new 'cuju' field, and I will notify you when the time comes of."
"In that case, the minister will wait for the good news." Jones nodded, turned around and walked out of the hall.
……
At this moment, there were only three people left in the hall, the Zhu Di brothers and Zheng He.
Therefore, Zhu Di had no worries when he spoke. He looked at Zhu Song with a smile, and said, "Brother Song, you are so bad. When you reprimanded Jones just now, you did it in a way that frightened him into a fool." .”
Zhu Song curled his lips and said: "Brother Sihuang, this East Roman man is a criminal. He is like that stubborn donkey. He can't go on the leash, and he is going backwards. You have to show him some color, or else They're going to be turned upside down."
"You're right to say that." Zhu Di smiled, "What do you think of the three competitions he proposed?"
"What do you think? I'll just stand and watch!" Zhu Song shrugged his shoulders and said, "Everyone has already made a move, so we can't stop doing it, right? Wenzel I's urine, if we don't take it, he will Maybe how to arrange Daming."
"En." Zhu Di nodded in approval, and said, "It's okay to say that this game is good. After all, all the civil servants and military generals in the court can play two-handed chess. Yao Guangxiao and Xie Jin are even known as national players. It's just how about the music and Cuju ? We don’t care much about these two items, where can we find someone to compete with them?”
Zhu Song is actually thinking about this: "Brother Sihuang, this music art is easy to talk about. You forgot to go to Haicheng? Then Xiahai City is known as the world's best music art, song and Fu, so they dare to use the official title to be the best in the world. If you make good use of it, wouldn't you be sorry for these four words?"
That day, when Zhu Song held a poetry meeting in the mansion, all the talented women in the third building were present. The charming little girl who went to Haicheng also fell in love with Zhu Song because of "a song, a song, and a love", and she perfectly helped Zhu Song dress up. It was a force, and all the literati in the Ming Dynasty were stunned for a while.
Although Zhu Song and Mi Qing got very unhappy because of certain things later, so that Xiahai City and Han Wang's Mansion had no contact for two years, but the emperor couldn't hold back the order?
You know, Zhu Di and Zhu Yuanzhang are different. Zhu Yuanzhang is ruthless, but most of the time he will estimate his own face. What kind of psychology is he?You said, do ants care about the provocation of ants?
Many times, Zhu Yuanzhang was dealing with civilian affairs with this mentality.
And if Zhu Di fails, he will not be provoked by the ants again, because he will often crush the ants to death directly. You are noble when you go to Haicheng, but if Zhu Di orders you to compete, if you don't come, then you will be punished. Let's copy and chop all over the house, and let the bones be ashes!
"That's right!" Zhu Di's eyes lit up, and he said, "Why did I forget about going to Haicheng? I will draw up an imperial decree in a while, ordering them to go to Haicheng to prepare people, and come to compete with the people of Eastern Rome! By the way, What about the third cuju?"
"As for Cuju..." Zhu Song scratched his head this time, "Brother Sihuang, although I know how to eat, drink and have fun, I really don't know anything about Cuju! How about this? You send Jin Yiwei and Dongchang If there are people here, let’s do a secret investigation to see where there are people who are good at Cuju, and then let them compete with foreigners.”
"This..." Two black lines immediately appeared on Zhu Di's forehead, and he said, "Forget it, let's discuss the Cuju matter later, let's get the first two things done first!"
Chapter 474 Finding Zhu Gaosui
Back at Prince Han's Mansion, Zhu Song had a strange expression on his face, with a trace of helplessness in his smile.
As soon as he entered Chuhua Hall, Xu Miaojin, who returned to the palace one step ahead of Zhu Song, came in with some side dishes and porridge.
Seeing the strange expression on Zhu Song's face, Xu Miaojin said: "Husband, what's wrong with you? Is it possible that Wansui wants to pay you to Yingtian Mansion again?"
Zhu Song looked up at Xu Miaojin, shook his head and said, "No, it's just..."
"Just what?" Seeing that Zhu Song seemed hesitant to speak, Xu Miaojin hurriedly asked.
"Forget it, let me tell you everything for my husband..." Zhu Song explained clearly the Eastern Roman Empire's competition with Ming Dynasty, and finally said: "This time, we need more help." You go down to Haicheng, and inform Misty Girl first, lest she be unprepared when the time comes."
"Then... what if the girl Mi Qing disagrees?" Xu Miaojin had a worried look on her face, "Long live won't attack Xiahai City just because of this time, right?"
"Your brother-in-law, don't you understand?" Zhu Song scratched his hair and said, "Brother Sihuang is no better than Emperor Father. Father had at least one reason for killing people back then. Brother Sihuang is different! Who does he want to kill?" , I won’t explain it to you at all, Jin Yiwei is here, and it’s time to die!”
Xu Miaojin's complexion changed slightly, and she finally said: "Husband, I can only say that I am doing my best in this matter. As for whether it can be done, it is beyond my control."
"Yeah." Zhu Song nodded, frowned and said, "As for the cuju competition..."
"Husband, do you want to ask Gao Sui about this?" Xu Miaojin frowned at the side, "I heard that Gao Sui seems to have formed some kind of polo team recently, and even built a polo field outside Nanjing. Cuju and polo are both balls, so is there something in common?"
Polo is a confrontation in a brutal and bloody game. It is like fighting on the battlefield. In this dynasty that advocated force, a qualified polo player is simply a brave warrior.
Similar to Cuju, playing polo requires not only a strong physique, but also a very high reflex nerve arc. That is to say, a master with a simple mind and well-developed limbs cannot play polo and football well.
"Polo?" Zhu Song frowned and said, "Polo doesn't have to be better than football!"
