Xuanhua Hall.
"It is the honor of the West Mist Country to be able to establish diplomatic relations with the Great Ming of the Celestial Empire."
" Alright," Zhu Di interrupted the West Mist King with a smile." There's no need to flatter me. The Great Ming Country is a country of etiquette. We pay attention to treating people with courtesy.”
"As long as the West Mist Country is on good terms with Great Ming, Great Ming will not mistreat our friends and neighbors.”
"On the contrary, if someone dares to challenge our Great Ming's prestige, the Great Ming's cannons and fleet will definitely not agree.”
The West Mist King's breathing froze. His 1.8-meter-tall body was so frightened by Zhu Di that he trembled a little. His expression became even more respectful.
Actually, taming these foreign countries was much easier than governing the domestic forces.
In the eyes of these small countries with only tens of thousands of miles of land and only a few thousand soldiers, Great Ming was almost equivalent to the mythical immortal country.
As long as Da Ming gave them a little favor, even if it was just an empty promise, it would be something worth celebrating.
On the contrary, if Da Ming showed any hostility towards them, it would be a precursor to the end of the world for these countries.
Therefore, they were all in awe of Da Ming.
However, during their conversation, Zhu Di noticed that the expression of the girl beside the West Mist King did not change much.
Even though Zhu Di had threatened her, the girl only showed humility. There was no fear in her eyes.
One had to know that Zhu Di was the emperor of Ming Dynasty. How majestic was his aura?
Not to mention the envoys of these small countries, even the important officials of the court were afraid of Zhu Di.
However, this foreign girl was surprisingly calm.
This kind of performance attracted Zhu Di's attention.
"King of West Mist, is this your daughter?”
"This is my only daughter, Katerina," the king replied.”
"Katerina!"
Zhu Di muttered the western-style name and laughed."Little girl, you are very outstanding."
Your Highness, Katerina kept silent and was very polite.
It was only when Zhu Di asked that she looked at him and said,""Thank you for your praise, Great Emperor."
"His Majesty the Great Emperor is also the most outstanding person Katerina has ever seen.”
His voice was clear and natural.
Zhu Di laughed. He was even more interested in this little girl.
" Your Majesty," Zheng He stepped forward and said," Princess Katerina is extremely intelligent and a heroic young man.”
"When the Queen of West Mist was seriously ill, Princess Katerina assisted the King of West Mist in governing the country in an orderly manner.”
"When Russia invaded the West Mist Country, Princess Katerina also used a clever strategy to repel the enemy.”
"When I first arrived at the West Mist Country, the princess also sent me a document to help me pass through.”
Zhu Di was surprised.
He did not expect this little girl to be so extraordinary.
Helping the monarch govern the people, protecting the country, it had the demeanor of an ancient virtuous empress.
What was even more valuable was that she was only a teenager.
At this moment, the eunuch Little Snot rushed in and whispered a few words into Zhu Di's ear.
Zhu Di's expression changed." Zheng He," he turned around and said," you can chat with them for a while."”
After saying that, he stood up and left.
...
Meanwhile, in Yangxin Palace Hall.
Song Shilu and Zhu Gaoyan had already tied them up.
"Your Majesty, we are innocent!”
"We really are envoys from the Adan Kingdom.”
"Please let us go!"
The two of them begged for mercy.
Zhu Gaoyan put down the apple and frowned." Shut up!”
"The two of you are acting suspiciously. If you are a spy, wouldn't you be ruining the prestige of my Great Ming Country?”
The two of them wanted to cry but had no tears. They did not expect the Emperor of Ming Dynasty to be so decisive. He did not even give them a chance to explain and directly tied them up.
After a while, the guard brought in a woman dressed like a princess.
"Princess Adan Chen Xiang greets His Majesty the Great Emperor.”
The woman knelt down and bowed.
Zhu Gaoyan nodded and walked to Chen Xiang with his hands behind his back. He said loudly,""Chen Xiang, zhen asks you, what happened in Adan?”
"My father, Chen Tianping, was the king of the Adan Kingdom.”
"Half a month ago, General Song Shilu and his younger brother launched a mutiny and chased my father out of the capital.”
"Your Majesty, Chen Tianping's matter is a misunderstanding. We…" Song Shilu hurriedly shouted.
"Shut up!"
Zhu Gaoyan frowned, and a cold murderous aura emanated from him.
Song Shilu's heart trembled. He felt as if he was being glared at by a fierce tiger, and his blood turned cold.
She lowered her head while trembling.
Zhu Gaoyan turned to Chen Xiang and said,""Continue."
......
Outside the Palace of Heavenly Purity.
Zhu Di's face darkened as he rushed straight to Yangxin Palace Hall.
"Your Majesty, I can't stop you," the eunuch said anxiously.”
"Ambassador Adan mistook the young prince for you as soon as he entered the palace.”
"After that, I ordered people to arrest them.”
"The eunuchs and palace maids have tried to persuade him, but the young prince doesn't listen."
"Where is he now?" Zhu Di asked in a deep voice.”
"Tied up in Yangxin Hall…"
"Nonsense!"
Zhu Di was so angry that his beard trembled.
He wasn't angry that Zhu Gaoyan was pretending to be him, nor was he angry that Zhu Gaoyan had captured him.
The situation in Aldan was very complicated, and it involved a rebellion.
Princess Adan, Chen Xiang, had come this time to ask him for help in resolving this matter.
Zhu Di was afraid that Zhu Gaoyan would catch the wrong person and mess things up.
Zhu Di hurried to Yangxin Palace Hall. Just as he was about to enter, he found the princess of Adan Country standing there.
"Eh? This kid didn't catch the wrong person…"
Zhu Di was slightly surprised and then looked at Zhu Gaoyan with interest.
He wanted to see how Zhu Gaoyan would handle this matter.
......
In Yangxin Palace Hall, Zhu Gaoyan's face was filled with anger after hearing Chen Xiang's words.
Song Shilu's voice trembled." Your Majesty, please listen to my explanation."
"Explain? What else is there to explain?"
"You usurped the throne and forced the king away. My Great Ming's envoy went to mediate and sent them back. You killed him with one slash!"
"I am the emperor of Ming Dynasty. King Adan believed in me and agreed to go back. You also said that you agreed to let me mediate.”
Zhu Gaoyan walked towards Song Shilu step by step, and his voice gradually turned cold." I believed you, but you even killed the envoys of the Ming Dynasty! You still have the face to come back?"
Plop!
Song Shilu and the other man knelt on the ground, sweat dripping down their necks.
Zhu Gaoyan put his hands on his hips and glared at him.""Using a subject to kill an emperor, greedy and shameless! Today, I will not kill you."
"Because, soon, you will know what a king's teacher is! What did he mean by hanging the people and punishing the criminals! Drag him out!"
Two guards entered the hall and took away Song Shilu and the other man who were begging for mercy.
Outside the door, Zhu Di was dumbfounded.
