Chapter 191: Mr. Gao Chi (1)

The emperor ordered that the prince of Yan Gao Chi went to Japan to give him a leather suit.

~

Bain, crown ear.

After the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the clothing and hats of the prosperous Tang Dynasty were restored, and the royal family members and ministers all had strict clothing regulations.

Zhu Gaochi was the prince of the King of Yan. According to the etiquette, the prince had nine slits of leather, while the prince had eight slits and the prince had seven slits. Therefore, he was sent to Japan to go to Japan and specially allowed him to wear the prince's leather.

The exquisite nine-slit leather hatched was carefully picked out from the jade box by Zheng He and worn on Zhu Gaochi's head. Nine of colorful jade pearls were used in front and behind each seam of the leather hatched, and gold ornaments were used in the crown and pendant hairpin. The crown was inserted into the gold hairpin and the red tassels were tied into.

All the negative or worried emotions on Zhu Gaochi's fat face disappeared at the moment when he put them on his leather bag, and replaced them with solemnity.

Then Zheng He directed other guards and others to take out the dress from the box devoutly.

The top is a crimson robe with bright red and no emblems. Then there is the lower robe, with three fronts and four backs connected to the waist, and a middle robe covering the knees, etc.

These clothes and leather suits were combined with leather suits, which were worn by the Prince of the Ming Dynasty when they participated in the tribute of the four barbarians, met with foreign officials, and issued edicts to submit edicts.

Regarding whether such high regulations should be made by the prince of the Ming Dynasty to visit the vassal states, officials of the Ministry of Rites argued for several hours, and even almost fought against each other in the government office. However, after Zhu Gaochi arrived in Japan, the dress he chose was surprisingly consistent.

Of course, this kind of gift that accepts tribute from the Four Barbarians is not allowed.

In the hearts of the Ming officials, even if they were not on the land of China, the people in Japan would pay tribute when they saw the prince of the Ming Dynasty.

"Your Highness, that's OK!"

Zheng He took a step back respectfully and whispered.

Zhu Gaochi sorted out the collar, stood in front of the mirror and looked at his body, and then sorted out the jade belt around his waist.

"It's better to be fatter. Wear clothes with a good look, and thin people can't hold on!"

He had a smile on his face and said in his heart.

Then, he walked in all directions and "Go!"

~~

Bang bang, three cannons suddenly sounded at the bow of the ship.

The Japanese Daming Mountain Ming Shi Xi on the dock, who welcomed Zhu Gaochi, was shocked and subconsciously hugged.

As he was ashamed, the retainers and ministers of famous mountain masters thought that the head of the family began to salute, and the dock suddenly leaned over.

Ji Gang, Jinyiwei Qianhu, shouted at the bow of the boat, "Your Highness the Prince of Yan is here!"

"Welcome to the Crown Prince!"

Then, two rows of Jinyiwei, with goose crowns and brocade clothes, pressed the embroidered spring swords at the waist, surrounded Zhu Gaochi and walked down the bridge.

The head of the mountain master, Yama Shixi, took his son Yama Shixi, and Gelao Mountain Mingzhongcun and others, quickly stepped forward, "I am a man named Yama Shixi has seen His Highness the Crown Prince of the Celestial Empire. His Highness is here to the country and shine!"

"There is no need to be too polite to the foreign vassal!" Zhu Gaochi laughed heartily, stepped forward and held the other person's shoulder with his own hands, and smiled, "I heard before I came that the head of the Shanming family is a knowledgeable, talented, elegant and noble person. He is indeed worthy of his reputation when he saw it today."

As he said, he continued to smile, "It was not that Gu said good things on purpose. The foreign vassal was a prince of the Japanese and was in charge of one side. But when Gu looked at it, the foreign vassal was elegant and easy-going, and at a glance he knew that he was a talented man of the times who were both civil and military and well-read in poetry and books. He really made Gu feel very involved."

Shanming Shixi was overjoyed when he heard this. No matter how proud the names of the princes of Japan were, they all liked to regard themselves as scholars and officials on the surface.

"Your Highness is so serious again!" Yamai Shixi smiled, "I am really lucky to be praised by Your Highness in three lives!" As he said that, he hugged the people around him and smiled, "This is a dog son, Yamai Shixi!"

"I have met His Highness the Crown Prince of the Celestial Empire!" Yama Ming Shixiao was a few years older than Zhu Gaochi, and his attitude was humble.

"It turns out that a tiger father has no dog son, and he is a handsome man." Zhu Gaochi laughed loudly, and his gentle eyes kept looking at the other person.

Actually, I was whispering in my heart, "Your father is called Shi Xi, you are Shi Xing, you two are of the same generation?"

Then his eyes turned slightly, and he swept across the faces of the Japanese people who were welcoming him, and everyone's expressions were all in sight.

Some people's eyes are hot, some are obedient, some are indifferent and in vain. Of course, there are dissatisfaction and rebelliousness.

Although Zhu Gaochi received traditional Confucian education, as the emperor's grandson and the third generation of the Zhu family, he was not stupid enough to think that others' respect for the Celestial Empire was natural. The four barbarians surrendered, but the Celestial Empire's military power and national strength.

Whether it is a country or a person, blindly being arrogant is just arrogance and stupidity.

In addition to swords and weapons, there were also etiquettes in the Celestial Empire, and sometimes etiquette was even more important than swords.

Zhu Gaochi smiled, "Do you dare to ask if the son has a word for a letter?"

The rituals of Japan were passed down from China, and the princes and princes were even more proud of Sinology. Shanming Shihao was the son of Daming. He received Confucian education since childhood. How could he not have a word for expression?

Asking the other person's words for the other person is the kindness released by Zhu Gaochi. Because calling the other person's words for the other person will make it look closer and more friendly.

At this time, Zhu Gaochi suddenly asked this question, and the other party’s father and son immediately understood the meaning of the other party’s words.

"The dog son has not yet written a word for a word!" Yamaname Shixi bowed and smiled, then hesitated a little, "I'm brave. If the prince does not think the dog son is vulgar, I'll ask your prince to give the word for it!"

Zhu Gaochi pondered for a moment, "How can this make it?"

"You are the prince of the Celestial Kingdom and the imperial envoy of Your Majesty. If you are willing to give the name, it is the honor of the dog son!" Shanming Shixi continued to smile, "It is even more honor for the famous mountain masters! It must be a good story sung throughout the ages."

He was a prince in Japan and was like an emperor in his territory.

The reason for such a low attitude is not only because of Zhu Gaochi's identity. It is deeper because since the last time the commander of the Ming Dynasty Jinyiwei, He Guangyi, the generals and other officers sent by him in accordance with the agreement between the two sides, made Shanming Shixi deeply understand a sentence.

There is a sky beyond the sky, and there is a mountain beyond the mountains.

He had naturally had the intention of using the Ming Dynasty in his mind, but he regarded the private treaty with the Ming Dynasty as a business exchange. But when he saw the Daming Firearms Army who arrived in Japan, he saw the power of the iron cannon that opened mountains and cracked stones.

The borrowing in my heart has become a reliance, and I even thought that if the Ming Dynasty was willing to give him more iron cannons and weapons, as well as cavalry, it would be easy for famous mountain masters to dominate Japan.

Among his other Japanese princes, there were not only no one who opposed being too close to the Ming Dynasty. Many people even said that Goryeo was the lesson of the past, and being close to the Ming Dynasty was tantamount to being close to the Ming Dynasty.

Some people even say that the emperors and princes of the Ming Dynasty are both typical people who drink gold cups and are unwilling to forgive each other. They turn against each other faster than flirting with books. On the surface, they are like you and you may have already drawn a knife in private.

But in the view of Shanming Shixi, Japan and the Ming Dynasty crossed the mountains and the sea. Even if the Ming Dynasty had ambitions for Japan, he could only secretly spy on it. It was simply a fool to swallow Japan across the sea.

For the Ming Dynasty, he had a lot of money, a good source, and a good use.

At this moment, letting Zhu Gaochi give his son a word for expressing his words was not a quick speech, but a statement after careful consideration.

It is even more beneficial to bring closer relationships with the Ming Dynasty royal family. His Royal Highness, the prince of the Yan prince, will be in control in the future, the most elite northern army of the Ming Dynasty, tens of thousands of cavalry, and countless iron cannons and firearms.

Zhu Gaochi was determined to show his kindness, and the mountain was famous and Shixi followed the river to carry on the boat.

"This..." Zhu Gaochi pondered slightly, "Since the foreign vassal is like this, I can't refuse." As he said, looking at the name of Yamashiro Shizuki, he said seriously, "The father and son of the foreign vassal admire China in the hearts of the Celestial Empire. If I look at the words "I'm not as good as a man's son, I'll call him Xinhua!"

Yama Ming and his son were overjoyed and bowed at the same time, "Ariya Duozhu Aunt Xida!"
