The group entered the palace, and Krishna met with Liu Tan and others in a magnificent palace. After the two parties formally bowed and had an audience, Liu Tan took out the autographed letter from Zhang Yanling that he carried with him and presented it to Krishna.
.
That Krishna could even read Chinese characters, and he unfolded the letters and read them by himself without any help, which shocked Liu Tan even more. Not only could the king of the Gara Kingdom speak the Ming Dynasty, but he could also read and read letters.
It's really surprising and confusing.
The content of Zhang Yanling's letter is actually very simple. It is nothing more than an expression of goodwill to prevent the King of Jialuo Kingdom from making strategic misjudgments. Zhang Yanling's letter informed the King of Jialuo Kingdom about the grievances between the Ming Dynasty and the Folangji people, and the lifting of the maritime ban by the Ming Dynasty.
, determined to restore and develop trade with the countries in the South China Sea, so they sent troops to expel the Buddha
The purpose of the Langji people. At the same time, Krishna also made it clear that the purpose of the Ming soldiers and horses coming here was just to open up trade routes and make good business relations with the Southeast Asian countries. Expelling the forces of the Langji people was to better achieve this goal, and
I have no intention of being an enemy of the Jialuo Kingdom. I hope the Jialuo King will understand this and avoid strategic misjudgments.
At the same time, Zhang Yanling also expressed his apology for the previous conflict, expressed condolences and apology for the injury of His Royal Highness, and expressed his willingness to provide compensation for the killed Jialuo soldiers.
At the end of the letter, he wrote: I have long admired the majesty and talent of the King of the Garo Empire, and I believe that His Majesty the King will understand the great significance of good trade relations. It is an excellent mutually beneficial and win-win opportunity for both our countries. Of course, I
Ming Dynasty has always respected other countries and advocated
There is no big or small, equal status, and no bullying or deception. I look forward to meeting and discussing with His Majesty the King, having frank discussions with each other, and establishing friendly and commercial relations. I look forward to seeking friendship and discussing major issues with the hero of the Garo Kingdom.
Seek common development.
The letter was written very politely and the tone was sincere. It was a courtesy letter to express goodwill and enhance contact, and did not involve specific issues.
After Krishna read the letter, he said to Liu Tan with a smile on his face: "Mr. Zhang is really a polite and friendly person. I completely agree with what he said in the letter. Mr. Franji brought it upon himself and should have been punished long ago. Your country
Soldiers and horses are for the sake of heaven.
We breathed a sigh of relief. To tell you the truth, our Jialuo Kingdom has been suffering from the scourge of the Folangji people, and we hate them. We are regarded as forbidden by them and bully them at will. They plunder the wealth of our Jialuo Kingdom and treat them badly.
We, the people of the Jialuo Kingdom, kill at will,
The crimes committed are too numerous to describe. It is a pity that our Garo country is small and weak and unable to compete with them, so we can only let them do whatever they want. Not long ago, I learned that the Great Tomorrow Army had arrived and completely annihilated the Folangji maritime fleet. I was really happy and grateful.
Endless.
If you hadn't arrived, defeated the Folangji people, and saved our Jiala Kingdom from the fire and water, we still don't know how many years they would have oppressed us. We don't know when and when we will be able to make a difference. Please convey this message to the soldiers of your country.
My gratitude.”
Hearing this, Liu Tan cupped his hands and said, "We are relieved to hear His Majesty the King say this. It turns out that His Majesty the King was also deeply harmed by the Folangji people. On this point, he and I, Daming, have the same idea and share the same hatred of the Folangji country.
They have committed many injustices, and our Ming Dynasty’s Invincible Fleet is here to save the countries in Southeast Asia from being enslaved by them.”
Krishna smiled and said: "Yes. We have the same enemy. The Francois are forcing us to use force to force the Jialuo Kingdom. We have always wanted to get rid of it but couldn't. This time, the soldiers of the Great Tomorrow came here and solved our inner worries.
We are very grateful. However, there are some things that we need to explain clearly to you.
Chu, you also need to understand us. Before the defeat of the Folangji people, we had to make mistakes, and were even coerced by them into sending some troops to assist them. But that was forced and helpless, and it was definitely not our intention.
I hope you can understand this and provide understanding."
Liu Tan said: "That's natural. The Folangji people bully the Nanyang countries, and you have no choice. They are powerful and cannot be competed by the Nanyang countries. That's why my Mr. Zhang has always emphasized that even if the Nanyang countries
Being coerced into participating in the attack on our Ming Dynasty’s Invincible Fleet,
But we can't blame them for this, but understand and forgive them. After all, they are facing ferocious and powerful enemies, and they have to do this in order to survive. When life and death are at stake, the most important thing is to preserve themselves. Otherwise, everyone will be dead.
, the country is destroyed, how can we talk about the future?"
Krishna sighed: "It is true that China is the great country, and its magnanimity and magnanimity are extraordinary. To be honest, General Liu said that I have always admired your country's atmosphere, especially your magnanimity. There is no such country except for thousands of years of foundation.
You are magnanimous. You may not know that when I was young, I went to your Ming Dynasty and stayed for three years. Speaking of which, that was more than thirty years ago."
Liu Tan was surprised and said: "It turns out that Your Majesty has been to my country, Ming Dynasty. This is really strange."
Krishna smiled and said: "Of course, otherwise how could I speak the language of the Ming Dynasty and how could I understand the writing of the Ming Dynasty? Back then, my father told me that among the countries in the East, only the Ming Empire has a richer foundation than ours, India.
All countries have gone above and beyond. Father
The king asked me to go to the Ming Dynasty to practice cultivation, travel and study. So I followed a merchant ship from the Ming Dynasty to travel to your Ming Dynasty for three years. Those three years really opened my eyes and benefited me a lot. I felt the richness and prosperity of the above country.
Even more obsessed with it
Your culture. Therefore, I have always been close to and admired your Ming Dynasty. Later, after I inherited the throne, I originally wanted to send an envoy to your country to build a good relationship between the two countries. But...the sea route was blocked and the land route was dangerous.
, unable to make the trip.
Then the Folangji people came again, and the conflict between us and the northern countries became increasingly urgent. So I have been busy with state affairs for so many years and was exhausted, so I put it aside. This time your country's heavenly soldiers arrived, this is God's will. It's really amazing.
People are happy.”
Liu Tan suddenly realized that it was no wonder that this king could speak the language of the Ming Dynasty and read the characters of the Ming Dynasty. It turned out that he had stayed in the Ming Dynasty for three years. It should have been during the Chenghua period more than thirty years ago.
"This is great. It turns out that His Majesty the King is so close to me, Ming Dynasty, so we can sit down and talk about many things. His Majesty the King is open-minded and open-minded, and my Duke is also a very reasonable person.
In this way, we will be able to reach a consensus and avoid disagreements. To be honest, my father-in-law
I am also worried that His Majesty the King will blame us for coming uninvited, and he will feel guilty. My father-in-law is a humble man. For example, when he came to South Asia this time, he not only sent me to your country to pay homage to His Majesty the King, but also sent others
People go to other countries and invite them to discuss and work together for prosperity and peace."
Liu Tan calmly recounted the incident again, while carefully observing Krishna's face.
Krishna remained calm and said with a smile: "Of course it is. I also hope to take this opportunity to use the reputation of the Ming Empire as a mediator to resolve disputes with my own country and other countries. If I can get Mr. Zhang
I would be very grateful for your assistance.”
Liu Tan smiled and nodded: "I see, I think my father-in-law will definitely be willing to help with this."
Krishna smiled and said: "General Liu, please tell Mr. Zhang that I hope to meet with him alone to see his style and discuss and sign some trade treaties in person. Let's do this. Ten days later, I will
The city of Delhi warmly welcomes Mr. Zhang. The city of Delhi is located northwest of Guli Port.
The direction is less than three hundred miles away from Guli. It is a valley city with excellent scenery at the southern end of the Eastern Ghats Mountains of the Jialuo Kingdom. There are wild animals and birds around. I know that you Ming people like to hunt, so I asked Mr. Zhang to hunt with me.
Let’s discuss the important matter of reconciliation between the two countries. Please make sure Mr. Zhang agrees.”
Liu Tan nodded and said: "I will definitely bring your Majesty's words. However, I can't guarantee whether the Duke of Guo is willing to go."
Krishna smiled and said: "Is it possible that Mr. Zhang is worried about safety issues? It is three hundred miles away from Guli Port and seven hundred miles away from my capital. I am not afraid, so what is Mr. Zhang afraid of? Besides, you can send people
Go ahead and check the situation. Can you feel relieved soon?"
Liu Tan said hurriedly: "That's not what I meant, that's not what I meant. I mean, I can't make the decision for the Duke."
Krishna nodded and said: "That's right. Let's see. I will go to Delhi and wait for a few days. Whether Mr. Zhang goes or not, it is up to him. If he goes, I will treat him with courtesy.
Let’s discuss important matters together. If Mr. Zhang... has other concerns and refuses to go, then
So we can only agree on a time and place to meet in the future. The specific time and place can only be discussed and arranged. After all, inviting Mr. Zhang to come to Victory City is even more impossible. And naturally, I can't go to Guli Port.
Even if I were willing, the courtiers would not agree."
Liu Tan nodded slightly. Krishna did take his side's concerns into consideration. The city of Delhi is closer to Guri Port, which is actually a sign of sincerity. If both parties want to meet and discuss, they always have to choose a place.
Let’s meet. The worst thing is to send someone to Delhi City to investigate first.
At noon, Krishna hosted a banquet in honor of Liu Tan and his entourage, and he personally accompanied them. The guests and hosts had a lively conversation. Krishna also talked about the scenery and things he saw in the Ming Dynasty. But he still remembered them all.
It's the truth. It proves that he has indeed stayed in Ming Dynasty for a long time.
After the banquet, Krishna sent Liu Tan and others out of the palace, and ordered a group of cavalry to escort them out of the city a hundred miles away so that Liu Tan and others could leave safely. It can be said that he was extremely considerate and courteous, which made people feel like spring breeze.
…
In the evening, Krishna came to the residence of his son, the glorious prince Nehru.
Nehru was full of depression and anger. He was drunk at noon and was fast asleep on the bed. Krishna woke him up and ordered people to close the doors and windows and talked to his son for a long time.
When Krishna left, Nehru was smiling and radiant.
That night, Krishna led five thousand elite city guard cavalry out of the west gate of Victory City and plunged into darkness.
His father gave him a mission. He rushed to the city of Delhi and gathered three thousand local soldiers and horses to hide in the mountains, setting up a dragnet and waiting for the prey to be caught.
