"What does he mean?"
As soon as Zhu Ming left, the Japanese delegation, which had been relatively quiet, immediately started to make a noise.
The neglect they received in the main hall made them feel angry at the moment.
"This little grandson has already helped us a lot."
The princess of Japan just smiled and calmed the emotions of these people. She also knew the anger in the hearts of people like her. If the Japanese princess hadn't suppressed it, they might have started arguing long ago.
If a quarrel breaks out, what was originally meant to be discussed will not be discussed. If they offended the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, their strength would definitely not be the opponent of the Ming Dynasty.
She also learned a lot of information from Zhu Ming's answers.
"They have no intention of forming an alliance at all."
Yamashita, who had just been scolded by the Japanese princess, clenched his fist and smashed it on the ground.
Not only did Zhu Yuanzhang treat them so coldly, but other ministers also looked at them with a sense of arrogance in their eyes.
"Yamashita-kun, is there any alliance with such unequal strength?"
When the Japanese princess saw this, she immediately turned around to look at him and spoke out to remind him.
This sentence was not only spoken to Yamashita-kun, but also to other envoys and even himself.
The strength of Ming Dynasty was much stronger than that of Japan, not to mention that his father was only one of the great names of the Warring States Period.
This kind of unequal strength is not an alliance at all, in the final analysis.
The purpose of his trip was to seek support from the Ming Dynasty so that they could have the strength to unify Japan during the Warring States Period.
"Eh!"
After hearing the words of the Japanese princess, the other envoys could only grit their teeth and turn their heads to the side.
Even if you don't want to admit it in your heart, this gap in strength is an objective fact.
"Little grandson of the emperor."
Ande came out of Fengtian Hall, but instead of leaving, he went straight to the side courtyard to find Zhu Ming.
After all, it was a place where I stayed for one night, and it was easy to find.
"If you're not waiting at Fengtian Hall, what are you doing here?"
Zhu Ming sat at the desk, holding a pen and paper, raised his head and glanced at Ander perfunctorily, and asked aloud.
As a general who returned victoriously, Ender should be considered one of the protagonists in the court today.
"Not used to it."
Ender scratched his head. He became a pirate because he was unhappy with the so-called aristocratic etiquette in the past.
Now he is not used to having to put on airs in the Ming Dynasty's court.
"You can't get promoted quickly if you act like this."
Zhu Ming smiled helplessly. This was against the rules, and it would be difficult to move up.
For a general, Lao Zhu still gave it to him for his own sake, so he gave it to him.
But to go further, it depends on Ender's own abilities.
"Okay, His Royal Highness."
Ender suddenly stood up straight, waved his hand in the air twice, then placed it in front of him, bowed slightly, and performed an authentic Western aristocratic etiquette.
"You are a pirate, but you still understand this?"
Zhu Ming was also slightly surprised when he saw the noble etiquette of comforting people.
Seeing how flawlessly every move Ender made, it was clear that he had received special training.
"Before I became a pirate. A little bit."
Ender said, and walked directly into the room. When he saw a seat, he sat down directly.
"How about a reward?"
Zhu Ming didn't stop him. In fact, as a modern man, he was not as rigid about this ancient etiquette as others.
If you get along comfortably, he doesn't care so much about etiquette.
"Admiral, it's okay."
Ender responded casually. He didn't know why, but the Navy's treatment here didn't seem to be very important.
"That's okay."
Zhu Ming nodded. Ming Dynasty was a farming society and a country with land power, so it was normal that it did not attach much importance to the navy.
After all, besides Zhou Yu, the most famous navy commander is Zhu Bajie.
Compared with other generals, there are very few water warfare generals who can be said to be famous in this land since ancient times.
"If you want a higher status, you have to lead the navy to fight for it yourself."
For a rare moment he took it seriously and turned to look at Ander.
This situation of emphasizing land power over sea power will not last long. As long as the ocean fleet is established and a few great achievements are made, it will be fine.
"Um."
Ender nodded. When it came to water battles, he was quite confident.
"But what are you writing?"
After talking about the business, Ande looked at Zhu Ming and asked curiously.
From the time he came in until now, Zhu Ming has been sitting at the desk, sitting there in a daze with those pens and papers.
"Nothing, some basic physics knowledge."
Zhu Ming shrugged his shoulders.
More than half of the first volume has been given out to bookstores, and a lot of people have read it. It’s time to publish the second volume.
"Physics knowledge?"
After hearing the physics knowledge, Ander became interested and walked to Zhu Ming's side to take a look.
"Yes, a little basic physics knowledge."
Zhu Ming nodded.
"what is that?"
Ander looked at the symbols Zhu Ming wrote on the paper and couldn't help but ask aloud.
"Rules summarized from ancient Chinese classics, such as the Pythagorean Theorem."
Zhu Ming said lightly.
There has never been a shortage of scientific development and applications in this land, but there is a lack of people who can summarize them.
"Forget it, I can't understand, my head is big."
Ender looked at it a few more times, and finally saw that it was something he couldn't understand. The more he looked at it, the more sleepy he became, so he simply gave up.
Zhu Ming just smiled and ignored him, still writing there.
"Little Emperor, the dinner has begun."
It was not until evening that Yunqi sent someone to invite him that Zhu Ming stopped writing.
Looking at the book that I had written for a whole day and only managed to squeeze out a few pages, I shook my head helplessly.
This book is really difficult to write.
"I understand, go and invite the people from the Japanese envoy, and we will go together."
He stretched before taking Ander and the Japanese princess to the dinner party.
"How about it, Princess, how many cards do you have, have you thought about it?"
Zhu Ming looked at the Japanese princess and envoys who had dressed up and had a day's rest. Not only did the envoys' anger not diminish, they seemed to have gotten a lot worse.
It seemed like he was really anxious.
"Thank you, Emperor Sun, for reminding me."
The Japanese princess looked at Zhu Ming, smiled and nodded.
Although she didn't know why, she could feel that Zhu Ming was trying to remind her in several conversations.
"I didn't say anything."
Zhu Ming quickly took a step back and stretched out his hand to wave.
There are some things that two people know, and it is enough for them to know it well, and there is no need to say it out loud.
"Yes, the little grandson didn't say anything."
Seeing Zhu Ming's reaction, the princess of Japan finally came to her senses and smiled apologetically at Zhu Ming: "I'm too talkative, I'm rude."
Seeing that the Japanese princess was on the right track, Zhu Ming nodded with satisfaction, walked in front, and led them to the place where the dinner was held.
