"Your Majesty, now that a distinguished guest is coming, why not go and meet him first, and then try out these new weapons when you have time later." Fang Zhengyi reminded.
Li Yuanzhao glanced at the Ming 66 submachine gun reluctantly.
He is naturally extremely sensitive to the use of firearms, and these firearms can be regarded as the strongest in the world!
It's not warm in my hands, so I have to throw it down to do other things, which makes me feel a little uncomfortable.
However, state affairs are more important, so we have to try again later.
"Forget it, I'll go and see them first, but they came so suddenly, what should I say?" Li Yuanzhao asked.
Fang Zheng said: "It's not difficult. It's just a few simple greetings and I'll let you deal with it... That's it. If they have anything to ask your Majesty, your Majesty can just answer it. If you don't want to answer, it will be fine." Just say I have no comment.”
"Okay, let's go."
"Wait a minute, there is one more thing." Fang Zheng stopped Li Yuanzhao, "Your Majesty, we are here with a heavy army. The other party is already wary and should treat people with a friendly and equal attitude. When we meet, we will change the etiquette. Let’s talk as we walk.”
...
In the main hall of the temple, several generals stood in the hall, admiring the decorations.
Each of them was specially assigned a translator.
Speaking of the Holy City, basically everyone among them has been there. In the past, high-ranking officials and nobles from various countries were proud to go to the Temple Mount to receive an audience with the Pope.
But this time, things have completely changed.
The old pope is no longer here, but Pope Sorje and the people of Dajing are co-ruling the Holy City.
When I returned to my old place, things had changed, and I felt somewhat sad.
After the generals sighed, they all gathered around Wu Sheng and started chatting enthusiastically.
Generals from various countries have already understood the great scene.
It is said that the houses there are made of gold, and wine and milk flow everywhere. It is a rich and beautiful place.
Although this statement is a bit nonsense, it is possible to get a glimpse of the big scene through Wu Sheng and know the whole picture.
It is impossible to flow wine and honey and build houses with gold. Only ordinary people will believe such exaggerated nonsense.
But the people of Dajing are rich, that is absolutely undisputed!
Dajing people are so playful, they built a boat and people don’t want to get off...
Wu Sheng was naturally familiar with this kind of scene, and he was able to play both sides.
After chatting for a while, General Maude of Hero Kingdom said: "Master, on the way here, I heard you say that besides the emperor, there is another important person. Who is this person? Can you tell me now?"
Wu Sheng smiled lightly: "This person is my most important minister in Da Jing, Marquis Jianye Fang Zhengyi. If the general can make good friends with the Marquis, it will definitely be a happy event."
"Our Lord Marquis is the best at making friends with people. It is the Marquis who has contributed to the formation of friendly trade with other countries today. My little ability can be said to be worthless in the eyes of the Marquis. carry."
Mod was slightly surprised and said: "The talent of Marquis Jianye is actually higher than that of Master Wu. What kind of person is he?"
"The general will know later." Wu Sheng replied simply and hurried to deal with the others.
Not long after, a burst of shouting came from outside the hall.
"Your Majesty has arrived!!"
Everyone in the hall stopped talking and looked outside the hall.
I saw a figure striding forward, followed by many people.
Wu Sheng immediately stepped forward to pay homage: "Wu Sheng, a common man, pays homage to Your Majesty!"
"No courtesy." Li Yuanzhao waved his hand casually, "Wu Sheng, since you generals are here, please introduce me to me first."
"yes."
Wu Sheng stood up, stood next to General Mod, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, this is General Mod from Hero Kingdom."
After the translator finished speaking, Mod was about to speak, but Li Yuanzhao strode up to him.
He stretched out his right hand, grabbed his right hand, and shook it hard twice.
"I have heard about General Mode's name a long time ago, and it is indeed extraordinary when I see him today." Li Yuanzhao said cheerfully.
Maude was stunned, looking at her right hand, a little confused.
What's going on? The emperor of Dajing touched his own hand when he came up. Is this some unique etiquette of Dajing?
He knew a little about the etiquette of people in Dajing, and Master Wu had introduced it to them on the way here. Didn't they bow and clasp their fists in salute when they met?
Wu Sheng was also a little surprised when Li Yuanzhao came.
When Fang Zheng saw this, he immediately explained: "This handshake is a kind of etiquette for my visit to the Holy City. Your Majesty's visit to the Holy City today is to seek cooperation and develop friendship with other countries. The handshake symbolizes equality." Kind regards.”
In the fourth year of the Ming Dynasty, diplomat Fang Zhengyi invented the handshake ceremony.
Everyone present suddenly understood, and Wu Sheng even looked at Fang Zheng with slight admiration.
This unexpected behavior must have been arranged by the Marquis.
I didn't expect that he could invent such etiquette temporarily, it was really ingenious.
Simple physical contact is the perfect way to demonstrate equality and shorten the distance.
Wu Sheng continued to introduce them one by one, and General Mod shook his right hand unconsciously.
It still feels a bit subtle.
With the dignity of Emperor Dajing, it was really... unexpected that he could treat him with such enthusiasm and attention.
It still feels very comfortable.
After shaking hands one by one, all the generals present inevitably felt a good impression.
I have never experienced such respect and kindness before facing the emperor of my country.
After Li Yuanzhao met them one by one, Fang Zheng stepped forward to shake hands and talk with them.
During this period, General Maude silently looked at Fang Zhengyi and the imperial guards who appeared around him.
This Marquis Jianye feels very good, gentle and polite, speaks like a spring breeze, like an elegant poet.
But the soldiers in the room who followed Emperor Da Jing were not simple.
They are all big and round-waisted. Looking at their thick arms and broad backs, you can tell that they have extraordinary strength.
Da Jing's soldiers... there really is something!
After the simple greetings were completed, Fang Zheng saw the opportunity and said, "Generals, you have come all the way. I wonder if you have already eaten? If not, you might as well have a banquet here. How about we chat while eating?"
Wu Sheng echoed: "Master Hou, all the generals have indeed not eaten yet since they came here."
When the two said this, Li Yuanzhao also felt a little hungry.
I had a simple meal in the morning, then went to the school grounds to inspect the uniformed guards and shoot guns. Now that the morning has passed, I am feeling empty.
Seeing that no one had any objections, Li Yuanzhao waved his hand and said: "In that case, go ahead and do it Wu Sheng, and then order someone to move a group of seats up. I will have a few drinks with the generals."
Wu Sheng responded and walked out.
As soon as Fang Zheng grabbed him, he whispered: "This meal doesn't have to be too complicated. The people present are all people who lead troops to fight. You can bring a royal guard over and cook something for us... That's it."
"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."
