This person seems to have enough perseverance, and even seems to be a bit majestic!
When he said this, he naturally paused, because sitting there, Liu Jixing was a real emperor of the Central Plains.
What's more, Liu Jixing also has a wife by his side. He still abides by this etiquette very strictly, for fear of bringing disaster to the nobles around him. But when he saw everyone looking at him, he didn't pause anymore and directly told what happened to his group on the sea.
No one else came here. Apart from Wu Zhonghan and a few eunuchs, there was only Liu Jixing's chambermaid Gong'e. Everyone saw that Liu Jixing was silent and sat there listening carefully. Naturally, no one dared to disturb him, and they heard Liu Xia Tingyun's words clearly.
Although many people in Fusang Kingdom admire the Central Plains culture, they even dabble in poetry and other arts. But there are very few people who can truly learn the Central Plains culture.
What's more, looking at Liu Xia Tingyun, he is just a samurai from a minister's family, which is equivalent to the bodyguard of a minister's family in the Central Plains.
But being able to speak such fluent Central Plains Mandarin not only reflects the Fuso nobles' true in-depth understanding of the Central Plains culture, but also shows the status of Liuxia Tingyun in the Fujiwara family!
Liu Jixing actually didn't understand Fujiwara Minori. Firstly, what he saw in his own time was history. Secondly, even if he looked at history, he wouldn't know that much about the history of neighboring countries. But Liu Jixing still basically knows the glory of this Fujiwara family in this one or two hundred years.
Everyone's concerns are different, but because Liu Xia Tingyun said it very clearly, the people on the side gradually understood what he said and why they were in this state.
It turned out that when their group set out from Fuso Island, there were actually two large ships in total. Moreover, there were more than 100 warriors dispatched on the ship to protect Oriko Fujiwara. What is even more surprising is that Oriko Fujiwara is not the only distinguished person in this industry. She also has a half-sister, Fujiwara Yoshiko. The two of them took a separate ship and set off together with the same samurai group.
Including some people who came along to study, communicate and want to see the culture of the Central Plains, there were a total of nearly 200 people on each boat. Setting off from the Fusang Kingdom in a mighty manner, it can be regarded as the largest team sent by the Fusang Kingdom to the Central Plains in recent decades.
With such a large team, it can be imagined that the two large ships will definitely not be small. It can be imagined that the Fujiwara family sent these two palace masters here, and their intention was obviously unusual.
Although they had a certain route, who knew that when they were approaching land, they suddenly encountered several ships at sea.
At first, everyone thought it was a ship belonging to the imperial court along the coast of the Central Plains, because they had no accurate information about the imperial court in the Central Plains in the past twenty or thirty years. Facing the surrounding ships, they were even ready for contact.
Who knew that something unexpected happened immediately, because these people first surrounded the two ships, and then tried to board the ship by force, which naturally caused a counterattack and escort from the samurai group on the ship. Unexpectedly, the other party launched an attack immediately, and attacked without mercy.
The two large ships of Fuso Kingdom naturally counterattacked, but they did not expect that there were many arrows on the other side's ships. At first, the two ships knew each other's casualties and responded to each other, but then because they were on the sea, they were gradually separated by several ships of the other party. The big ship owned by Zhi Gong finally broke through the besieging ships and ran all the way to the South China Sea.
Things became simpler after that. The ship here struggled with the ship over there for a whole day, and the other side was unable to board the ship and annihilate it when they saw it. In the end, they had to leave when they were close to the Han coastline.
At that time, the ships here lost contact with the big ship, and they did not know where the coastline was, but they were later discovered by a patrol ship from the Han Kingdom in Lingnan. When they discovered a large ship from the Han Dynasty, they thought they had encountered pirates again. However, due to the Han's large shipbuilding blockade in the outer sea, the ship headed by Fujiwara Oriko had to give up resistance after being surrounded.
When Liu Jixing received the news, he had actually received intelligence from Tang State. Because Fujiwara Yoshiko and his party docked in Jiangyin, they did not receive the attention of the Tang court. However, Liu Jixing heard news that there was a fight between two factions in Fuso. The left ministers, led by Fujiwara Minori, and the opposition, led by Minamoto Takaaki, were taking power in the country.
Because Fujiwara Minori had not yet fully taken power at this time, and the Fujiwara family and his younger brother Fujiwara Shisuke were at odds with him, Fujiwara Minori was very passive. In order to give Emperor Murakami confidence in himself, Fujiwara Sanyori decided to send his two daughters to the Central Plains, hoping to gain support from the Central Plains court.
Liu Jixing was quite surprised because this pirate team was indeed not Shao Tingqi's team that he sent out. According to Shao Tingqi's report, the other party should also be a pirate who has been at sea for a long time, and there are more than ten sea ships.
In addition, the ship was once boarded by the opponent, but after Yanagishita and others resisted desperately, they drove those people off the ship. In the end, they had to escape and move closer to the land. However, they eventually lost contact with Master Zhi's ship here, and Master Fang's ship also fled and fought, and finally broke through to the entrance of the Tang River.
A big mistake that occurred was that in order to avoid invasion by foreign enemies, the Tang State actually prepared a large number of sea barriers and traps at the mouth of the river. The other party followed them all the way, and they didn't even have any taboos. Instead, the big ship from the Fuso Kingdom ran aground at the mouth of the river and fell into a trap.
In the end, they were slaughtered by the other party helplessly. If the navy from the Tang Dynasty hadn't come to check at the mouth of the river, I'm afraid that none of the people on the Fusang Kingdom's ship might have been able to stay. But Liu Jixing felt that Tang Guo and these pirates had done him a big favor. Because others don't know the importance of these two ships, Liu Jixing can make a fuss about it.
"Because of the long-term obstruction of the sea, Emperor Murakami of Hinode Country cannot accurately understand the situation in the Central Plains. I hope His Majesty the Emperor will forgive me!" Liuxia Tingyun had obviously heard the explanation from the officials of Honglu Temple and knew that everyone was now in the south of the Central Plains. However, since they entered Beijing from the Pearl River Estuary and saw the prosperity of Prince Xing's Mansion, they were already shocked, so they responded with a respectful salute.
"Now that you have seen the prosperity of our capital, how do you feel in your heart?" Liu Jixing spoke to the girl calmly.
