"Please don't worry, angel. The foreign minister will take care of it immediately." Seeing that Han Du and others had no intention of disembarking, Yu Dushu had no choice but to go back alone to report.
When Yu Dushu returned to the Yamen, he immediately wrote a book and sent someone to the royal city to report the news of the arrival of the Angel of Heaven.
In the royal city of Java, the newly appointed King of Java is only about thirty years old. It is the time when he is in high spirits. In the palace, he has wine, meat, and music every night.
After receiving the news reported by Yu Dushu, the King of Java took a look and said with a smile: "It is really rare that the angel of the Ming Dynasty came to Java. It seems that this king is really destined. He has just succeeded to the throne and is ready to ask the Ming Dynasty for a title. , I didn’t expect the angel to come early.”
After hearing this, the courtiers on the left and right of the Javanese King raised their glasses of wine to congratulate the Javanese King, and flattered him like a tide.
The King of Java suddenly stood up, waved away the singing and dancing, and said: "Since the angel of tomorrow has come, I will take a bath and change clothes to greet you. That's it for today's banquet. I will hold a bigger dinner party in the evening. , when the time comes, I invite you all to raise a toast to celebrate with your family and angels.”
"Thank you, Your Majesty." The courtiers then withdrew, preparing to go back to recharge their batteries and wait until night to see the great angel again.
King Java smiled and watched everyone leave. When there was no one around him, his smiling expression suddenly turned gloomy. After pondering for a moment, he took Yu Dushu's documents and turned around and walked towards the harem.
Arriving outside a remote palace, someone quickly opened the door, waited until the Javanese King entered, and then quickly closed it again.
An old man was sitting under the tree in the yard. When he saw the Javanese King looking bad, he smiled and asked: "What, what happened? Has the sky fallen? Even though your father was imprisoned, he didn't see you. His face looks so ugly."
"The sky is indeed falling." King Java sneered and nodded.
The old man's hand that was pouring tea paused, and he looked at the King of Java in confusion.
The King of Java said: "I just got the news that people from the Ming Dynasty are here."
The old man laughed a few times when he heard this and said: "I thought it was a big deal. People from Ming Dynasty will come sooner or later. Isn't this all part of our plan? And they will be later than I expected. There are too many, it seems that Ming Dynasty has begun to slack off, and it is not worth a penny."
"Come here when you come. Just fool them, okay?" The old man glanced at the King of Java indifferently.
The King of Java suddenly let out a long sigh and said: "What the elder said is right. It's just that the soldiers came to cover up the water and the soil. This is also the first time for this king to meet people from the Ming Dynasty. In the past, I only heard about how great the Ming Dynasty was. Let me The king is timid, but he actually thinks that the Ming Dynasty is thousands of miles away, and no matter how strong they are, they are beyond their reach, so I don’t need to be afraid of them at all."
"Your Majesty's words are true," the elder nodded. "The Ming Dynasty has a good saying, a strong dragon will not suppress the local snake. This Java is the territory of the King. Even if the people of the Ming Dynasty come, the dragon must be coiled. Even if they are tigers, they have to lie down. The king will entertain them with good food and drink for a few days and fool them, and maybe the king will be canonized by the Ming Dynasty faster."
"Sir, what you said makes sense." The King of Java nodded slightly.
Seeing that the Javanese King had returned with confidence, the elder said nothing more and casually asked: "By the way, do you know who is coming from the Ming Dynasty?"
The King of Java did not speak and handed Yu Dushu's documents to him.
The old man opened it with a smile, and after just one glance, his face suddenly turned livid.
"Old man, what's wrong?" King Java saw the old man's face turning like this, and he didn't know what was wrong.
The elder ignored the King of Java at all and stared at the name on the document.
"Han!!! Du!!!"
The hatred in his heart could not be concealed at all, and even the Javanese King beside him felt it deeply. Ever since he met this old man, he seemed to be very wise and calculated, as if he would never make a mistake and would always be on the side that was beneficial to him.
Facts have proved that this old man does have such confidence and ability.
But now, for the first time, the King of Java saw the unknown side of the old man. The old man who was shocked by him in the past was now resentful. This old man is not as powerful as the Javanese King once thought. He is also a human being, and he also has moments of resentment.
"My lord, your plans are about to change."
"Why?" The King of Java didn't understand that the elder who had just tried his best to fool the Ming people was now saying that he wanted to change his plan after taking a look at the document.
"Because this person is here, no matter how flawless you do, you can't hide it from his eyes." The elder pointed towards Han Du's name.
'Handu? Who is this person? He can actually make the elderly feel like they are facing a powerful enemy. 'The King of Java couldn't help but look at it a few more times out of curiosity.
"What do you think this king should do?" the Javanese King asked casually.
The old man's expression suddenly became ferocious, and he said with hatred: "Lure the enemy to go deep, surround and kill with all your strength!"
When the King of Java heard this, his eyes widened, he looked at the elder in disbelief, and asked sternly: "Are you crazy?"
"I'm very sober!" The elder said every word with great emphasis to show his determination.
When the King of Java heard that the elder was determined, he immediately panicked and said quickly: "Old elder, do you know what you are talking about? This king also wants to be canonized by the Ming Dynasty. Do you know the consequences of besieging and killing angels?"
The elder looked at the King of Java with a sarcastic look and said: "If Han Du doesn't die, do you think you still have a chance to be canonized by the Ming Dynasty? Let me tell you, this man is extremely cunning, and your methods of killing brothers and imprisoning fathers cannot be hidden from his eyes at all. . If he leaves alive, don’t even think about waiting for Ming Dynasty to enthrone him. Just wash your neck and wait for Ming Dynasty’s butcher knife.”
King Java's face turned blue and white when the elder said that it was indeed too risky to surround and kill the angels. However, if this person was really as powerful as the elder said, his affairs would also be a dead end if Daming found out. The King of Java asked unwillingly: "Is this person really so powerful?"
The elder sneered and said: "You can imagine how powerful he is. What I want to tell you is that no matter what you think, he is ten times more powerful than you think."
The elder's words were like the last straw that broke the camel's back, finally making the Javanese king make up his mind.
"Okay! Whoever wants me to die, I want him to die first. Since Han Du won't give me a way to live, then I won't be polite to him. Elder, what do you think we should do?"
The decision of the King of Java did not make the elder feel relaxed, and the pressure brought by Han Du on him did not reduce at all.
