In the state of time travel, Gundam didn't dare to mess around. The previous teasing was enough, but too much was not enough. It's just a show of muscles, it's not good if it really makes the other party angry. After all, we are here to negotiate, not to find trouble.
In fact, even so, Le Yangcheng and Ouyang Ci were so angry that their faces turned purple.
The fleet advanced for another two days and finally arrived at the Third Prince.
"This is not a fiefdom, and the third prince does not have a fiefdom. But it is similar to a fiefdom. It is governed by the third prince. It is not very close to the imperial capital, but it is not very far either. The specific location is probably the "Fifth Ring Road" location, under a semi-supervised environment.
When the fleet arrived here, the third prince had already brought people over to greet them.
¡°In fact, the third prince is not stupid, and he is not naive enough to think that he can completely dominate this negotiation. So in the past few days, the third prince also asked the emperor of the West Vietnam Empire to be called a 'grand official'.
The diplomats of the West Vietnam Empire are usually called "big travelers", who are in charge of "the etiquette of important guests and the etiquette of important guests"; there are also "little travelers", who are in charge of "the etiquette of the princes of the country".
To put it simply, the "big pedestrians" are responsible for the international affairs; the "little pedestrians" are responsible for the domestic nobility, large and small, etc.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the West Vietnam Empire was called the "Da Li Department", and the highest person in charge was the "Da Xing Guan".
In fact, the setting of ¡®Da Li Si¡¯ is very common here in the Suzaku astrology area.
In fact, within the current scope of Blue Star Group¡¯s influence, a few countries used this name in the past. However, with the rapid development and frequent exchanges within the Blue Star Group, everyone now generally has a 'Ministry of Foreign Affairs' with more complete functions.
This time, the third prince greeted Gautama as the "Grand Official of the West Vietnam Empire" and was finally able to say, "On behalf of the West Vietnam Empire, I hope that the two countries will live in harmony."
But it was said that the Emperor of the West Vietnam Empire was also very concerned about the sudden appearance of the Tianyuan Star civilization.
This Tianyuan star civilization that suddenly appeared is so powerful that it was able to purchase the entire Tianshe constellation from the Red River Empire, gather all the generals of the separate factions in the Tianshe constellation, and nearly annihilate the Tianji Empire's 800 million fleet. , to capture Yao Tong, the commander of his Golden Immortal cultivation, alive, no matter what he did, the emperor had to be wary.
Therefore, the Emperor was also very concerned about Gautama's visit. But because this matter was taken over by the third prince in advance, it was a 'cooked rice' situation, so the third prince could only be allowed to serve as a senior official.
Although such an important matter was handed over to the third prince, it also led to a lot of opposition within the court. Not to mention others, just the prince and the fifth prince were making trouble.
The prince¡¯s people are making trouble because of their power. The reason why the people of the Fifth Prince are making a fuss is because they suffered heavy losses in the previous war, and everyone feels that the Tianyuan Star civilization may have bad intentions this time - just look at their ostentatious and sharp-looking spaceship.
Even those ministers in the court who were devoted to the country objected: it is best for His Majesty to be directly responsible for such important matters.
There was still noisy in the court, but Gaoshang had already sat down with the third prince to have a preliminary exchange.
Formal negotiations cannot start as soon as they meet. Generally, they are contacted first to test the other party's attitude, bottom line, and understand the cultural atmosphere and political environment of both parties.
Godard even secretly contacted some local intelligence agencies.
These intelligence agencies are not necessarily ¡®wild¡¯, and some of the intelligence is sent by the third prince¡¯s opponents - such as other princes and even the prince. It could even be hostile countries surrounding the West Vietnamese Empire, etc.
??Moreover, there is no need for God to take the initiative to search. He only needs to send someone to walk around on the street, and someone will hand over the information. As long as you reveal your identity, if you see something on the ground while walking, picking it up is 90% information!
Of course, these ¡®picked-up¡¯ intelligences are mixed whether they are true or false, good or bad. They do not rule out slandering the royal family, or even slandering a certain official, etc.
But this information is still valid and is very helpful for Gundam to understand the West Vietnam Empire. For smart people, sometimes wrong intelligence can provide more. These things often go straight to the core.
For example, those who slandered high-ranking officials for going back on their word, but Dugu Junjie was keenly aware that it was not the high-ranking official who was going back on his word, but His Majesty the Emperor of the West Vietnam Empire who liked to go back on his word.
In the interstellar era, while real high-ranking officials have greater power, they also face more constraints. In a relatively stable country, high-ranking officials may have great power, but they are not so ¡®free¡¯.
This may be the reason why the so-called "The King of Hell likes to see little devils but is hard to deal with" and "the county magistrate is not as good as the current one". Although the power is great, there is noZi himself, but it was ¡®Xiangbang Dongmen Leopard¡¯ who actually negotiated.
The Prime Minister was the official of the Western Vietnam Empire and the Emperor who was responsible for the ¡®Etiquette of the Emperor¡¯. He was responsible for the emperor¡¯s etiquette, but it was not just etiquette, but also included the construction of spiritual civilization~
?According to the saying passed down by the Holy Emperor at that time, the great events of any country lie in sacrifice and military service. And Xiangbang is responsible for the issue of 'sacrifice'.
However, after a long period of evolution, many countries have eliminated the "prime minister" system. It's just that here in the West Vietnam Empire, the Prime Minister State still exists.
But now, the "Xiangbang" is probably more similar to the "Zhongshu Sheng" in ordinary countries, and is regarded as the emperor's personal secretary.
??Whether it is the Prime Minister or the official of Zhongshu Province, those who can sit in this position are definitely not mediocre.
This time, because the third prince took over the negotiation privately, and there were all kinds of noise in the court, the Emperor thought about it and had no choice but to send his personal secretary.
Dongmen Leopard, the name sounds a bit rough. In fact, he is a middle-aged man who looks skinny, but this middle-aged man is still gray-headed. In short, the real age is definitely that of an antique.
Dongmen Leopard¡¯s eyes were half-closed, as if he had never woken up; but his posture when sitting and standing was as steady as a rock and quite solemn. Even though the third prince announced that 'friendly consultations to promote the friendship and future between the two countries' had officially begun, Dongmen Bao's eyes were still half-closed.
Perhaps because of its isolation, the etiquette of the West Vietnam Empire is quite ¡®archaic¡¯.
The negotiation site is not a negotiation table, but a low "table" with everyone kneeling behind the table. At this time, Dongmen Leopard was like a stone sculpture, and a faint majesty filled the air even before he spoke. Moreover, his heavenly aura was also faintly spreading, pressing towards Gao Shang.
Gundam Gao's mind silently given an evaluation: It is indeed the emperor's personal secretary, this attitude is full!
But unfortunately, no matter how good the posture is, it is just a posture.
Godard Shang seemed to be completely unaffected by the coercion of the other party's immortal. After the third prince announced the 'friendly consultation', Godard Shang pondered for a while and then took the initiative to speak:
¡°Because of the continued development of Tianyuanxing Civilization, especially after the recent purchase of the Tianshe Constellation, we are fortunate to become neighbors. Based on the principle of good neighborliness and friendship, Tianyuanxing Civilization hopes to establish friendly cooperative relations with your country.
It¡¯s just that there was a little misunderstanding between us at the beginning. When we first purchased the Tianshe constellation, we encountered an active attack by a fleet at the first star cluster east of the Tianshe constellation.
We hurriedly fought, and although we suffered heavy losses, we were lucky enough to win. Later, after capturing some prisoners, we found out that the fleet came from the West Vietnam Empire.
Regarding this, Tianyuanxing United Nations hopes that your country will give a reasonable explanation. "
His words are gentle and his posture is powerful and domineering. Having said that, Gautama turned to look at the 'translator' next to him - actually a prisoner, a prisoner of the West Vietnamese Empire who had surrendered.
During these negotiations, Lao Gao not only took the prisoner with him, but also placed him in a conspicuous position! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
