    "Two ocean-going treasure ships and one Nanyang island~"

    "I heard that this treasure ship costs more than 200,000 taels of silver. The Ming Dynasty did not really say anything to me, North Korea."

    "As for this Nanyang Island, the Ming Dynasty doesn't know what it means."

    "Pu Yuanzong sighed at Ming's generosity, but also scratched his head and thought about what Ming meant.

    Fortunately, North Korea was actually rewarded with a Nanyang island. The detailed information on the location was given. The location is not bad, just south of Luzon Island in Nanyang, and the area is not small.

    Then Pu Yuanzong also shook his head slightly and returned to the hall where the envoys were staying with a smile on his face.

    Seeing Pu Yuanzong return, the others immediately became energetic. Looking at Pu Yuanzong's smile and the thick notebook he held in his hand, it was obvious that the reward from Ming Dynasty must be extremely generous.

    Many envoys from small countries in Southeast Asia are even more excited. This time, it seems that they can make a lot of money again.

    "Announce that the envoys from all countries will come to the Phoenix Hall to meet you~"

    Soon, the Little Yellow Sect came again, but it was for envoys from all over the world to come to the Phoenix Hall for an audience. This made everyone couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

    It seems that the difference in treatment is too big.

    The envoys of North Korea were received alone, but when it was everyone's turn, they were met together. The treatment was very different, and you could tell at a glance.

    The Eastern King Godara and the Japanese Queen Kashiwahara couldn't help but frown. Their identities and statuses were different anyway. In any case, the Ming Emperor should have received them alone, but the Ming Emperor did not.

    This made the two of them look very ugly.

    But there was no other choice but to follow the crowd to a huge hall. The hall had already been well-arranged, almost the same as when going to court, with a huge open space left in the middle.

    The dragon chair of Emperor Hongzhi was arranged on it. There were many seats on both sides, and the middle was empty for antiphonal music.

    The positions have been divided long ago. The envoys of Korea are on the left at the front, and Godala, the Eastern King of Sulu, is on the right.

    ??The positions of the Japanese king and the Annan Kingdom are next, and then they are arranged in order. The last one is the position of the envoy of the Luzon Kingdom.

    Not long after everyone lined up, Emperor Hongzhi and the important ministers of the court came to the Phoenix Hall in a hurry.

    "Diplomas from various countries pay homage to His Majesty the Ming Emperor~"

    When Xiao Jing saw Emperor Hongzhi sitting down, he also shouted loudly.

    "Xiao Wang meets His Majesty the Ming Emperor~"

    ??The Eastern King Godara and the Japanese Queen Kashiwara Emperor shouted so, they don't need to kneel down, just lower their heads to possess them.

    ¡°I¡¯m here to see His Majesty the Ming Emperor~¡±

    As for the envoys from other countries, they knelt down one after another and solemnly saluted Emperor Hongzhi.

    "No need to give gifts, give me a seat~"

    Emperor Hongzhi had a smile on his face.

    "Thank you, Your Majesty~"

    Everyone thanked him and stood up and sat on the chairs next to him.

    "You have come all the way, and it has been a long and tiring journey, and you have worked extremely hard. I am hosting a special dinner tonight, so please be sure to enjoy it."

    Emperor Hongzhi looked at the envoys from various countries below, and they had very distinctive characteristics.

    ??The clothes, things, hats, etc. they wear are all different, and their styles are very different, which makes people can't help but look at them more.

    Godala, the eastern king of Sulu Kingdom, has a big beard and a big white hat. His clothes are more like being wrapped in a piece of cloth, which always makes people think that the cloth will fall off.

    The Queen of the Japanese Kingdom, Emperor Kashiwahara, was very well-dressed. It is said that this style of clothing was passed down from the Tang Dynasty, so Emperor Hongji couldn't help but take a closer look.

    Park Yuanzong, the envoy of North Korea, is wearing the same clothes as the officials of the Ming Dynasty. He is wearing crimson clothes and a hat. If you didn't tell me otherwise, you would think that he is a minister of the Ming Dynasty. This is the most like the Ming Dynasty.

    As for the envoys from various countries in Southeast Asia, many of them are in strange clothes, which are a bit nondescript, but most of them wear hats, and there are jade or gemstones in the middle of the hats.

    "Thank you, Your Majesty~"

    After hearing what Emperor Hongzhi said, all the envoys expressed their thanks one after another.

    Holding a banquet is considered a routine operation, not to mention that there are so many envoys coming this time, so they have to express themselves.

    "Everyone, I, the Ming Dynasty, have always been kind to others and conducted the world with benevolence and righteousness."

    &nbsIn the end, the Emperor of Heaven must be respected as the master. In name, the Emperor of Heaven is the supreme monarch of the vassal country. As for the monarch of the vassal state, he must be canonized by the Emperor of Heaven to be considered orthodox and legal.

    Article 5: After becoming a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, the vassal state must comprehensively study Chinese civilization, respect Confucianism and Taoism, learn Chinese characters, change Chinese surnames, and must not pursue any other civilization.

    Article 6: After becoming a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, the vassal state must use the silver coins and banknotes of the Ming Dynasty. Both sides allow the other party's merchants to do business and trade freely.

    East King Godala looked at the contents listed in the vassal state agreement, and he couldn't help but widen his eyes, a little unbelievable.

    Is this still the Ming Dynasty?

    Didn¡¯t the Ming Dynasty in the past value justice over profit and conduct the world with benevolence, righteousness and morality?

    Wasn¡¯t the Ming Dynasty a good old man in the past?

    Wasn¡¯t the Ming Dynasty in the past stupid?

    Why has everything changed all of a sudden? Every clause in the Ming Dynasty vassal-state agreement is very critical. Once this vassal-state agreement is signed, these countries will become vassals of the Ming Dynasty from now on.

    The nominal monarchs are all the Ming emperors. In the future, the change of monarchs will require the approval and canonization of the Ming Dynasty. More importantly, they must learn Chinese culture, change their surnames, learn Chinese characters, and respect Confucianism and Taoism (Remember  Website address: www.hlnovel.com
