Ming Dynasty: Abandoned baby at the beginning, Zhu let me be the emperor

"Come, Your Highness, sit down."

Ande led Zhu Ming to a large tent outside the city, and then asked him and Liu Jin to sit down.

It can be seen that Ande had already made preparations to invite Zhu Ming and Liu Jin.

A bonfire had been lit in the big tent and the food was prepared.

There was even a woman kneeling in the big tent, wearing a loose kimono and closing her eyes to rest.

When the woman saw Ander coming in with Zhu Ming and Liu Jin, she opened her eyes and nodded to Ander.

Zhu Ming took a look at the woman. Judging from the communication between her and Ander, she did not seem to be Ander's subordinate.

"This is the princess of the Japanese daimyo. Their envoys are still on the ship and plan to meet the emperor together tomorrow."

Without waiting for Zhu Ming to speak, Ander took the initiative to introduce himself to Zhu Ming.

The so-called daimyo were the feudal lords of the Wa country, and those who were qualified to follow the envoys were considered to be the most important daimyo in the Wa country.

"My lady Princess, this is the great grandson of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu..."

Ender was stuck in the middle of his sentence.

Until now, he only knew that Zhu Ming was the emperor's grandson, but he didn't know his name.

"Zhu Ming."

Zhu Ming sighed helplessly in his heart and reported his name.

It seems that Ande fought really well to make the daimyo hand over his princess.

"Meet His Royal Highness the Grandson."

The princess then slowly opened her mouth and toasted Zhu Ming with a glass of wine.

"You speak our words?"

Zhu Ming instinctively raised a glass of wine and was about to drink it before he realized that the princess was speaking the language of the Ming Dynasty.

"Since the Tang Dynasty, we have often sent people to learn your language, of course."

The Japanese princess spoke more fluently than Ander, and there was almost no accent.

"I didn't expect that the grandson of the Ming Dynasty that General Ande mentioned would be a child."

While Zhu Ming was looking at the Japanese princess, the Japanese princess was also paying attention to Zhu Ming's every move.

So when Ander brought Zhu Ming in, he was a little surprised.

"Our ancient books say that a minister of a great country should be the ruler of a small country. My age shouldn't be a problem."

Zhu Ming chuckled and didn't care about the Japanese princess' opinion on his age.

After fooling around with this topic, Zhu Ming finally got serious and looked at the Japanese princess: "You Japanese have repeatedly disturbed my Ming border. Even if I am small, I have the right to raise an army to punish you."

Zhu Ming said this not only for his own face, but also on behalf of the people living along the coast of the Ming Dynasty.

"This……"

When Ander saw Zhu Ming start talking about serious matters, he immediately became embarrassed.

I just haven't been back to the capital for a long time, and I thought that when I came back, I would catch up with Zhu Ming first.

It so happened that he had an envoy from Japan on his ship, and he wanted to see the grandson of the Ming emperor.

I didn't expect it would turn out like this.

"Don't worry, Ender. I know what I'm doing."

Noticing Ander's embarrassment, Zhu Ming turned around and nodded at him.

This time, I just wanted to give the Japanese envoy a warning and would not make things too difficult for these people.

But it’s hard to say whether Old Zhu will make things difficult for them when he sees it tomorrow.

"Now, in our tiny country, there are hundreds of daimyo alone, and each of them commands a large number of troops. Even if we want to control them, we are powerless."

The Japanese princess sighed helplessly. This Warring States period had lasted for hundreds of years in their country, and no one was willing to listen to anyone else.

So she came here this time with a mission.

"I have also heard of your Warring States period."

Zhu Ming nodded. He had also heard of Japan's Warring States Period. After all, there had been many games on this theme.

It was a tiny place with dozens of daimyo. It was not until the appearance of Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu that this chaotic world was truly ended.

With the situation so chaotic, it’s hard to find someone to take the blame.

"So, since you can't control other daimyo, who do you, this envoy, represent?"

Zhu Ming took another step closer, stared at the Japanese princess, and asked again.

"I only represent my father."

The Japanese princess did not hide this and simply admitted it.

"I roughly understand your purpose. The emperor of the Ming Dynasty would not be like me."

Zhu Ming nodded and spoke in a deep voice.

"I'll take my leave now."

The Japanese princess also nodded to Zhu Ming, then walked towards Ande and walked out of the tent.

"I'm sorry, I didn't expect it to turn out like this."

Ander scratched his head at Zhu Ming somewhat awkwardly. Originally, he just wanted Zhu Ming to get acquainted with the Japanese princess.

"It doesn't matter. I was the one who started it."

Zhu Ming did not take these to heart, he just regarded it as a way to test the Japanese man's intentions on behalf of Zhu in advance.

"How are you doing at the front line?"

Now that the Japanese princess has left, Zhu Ming no longer talks about serious topics and starts chatting about family matters with Ande.

"It's okay. I was born a pirate, so I'm used to it."

Ander ate meat and drank wine with big mouthfuls, and he didn't seem to be uncomfortable at all.

After all, that's how he lived when he was a pirate.

"You are now a general of the Ming Dynasty. The emperor will definitely reward you tomorrow."

Seeing that Ander was not ashamed of his pirate origin, Zhu Ming became serious and watched him emphasize his identity as a general of the Ming Dynasty once again.

"The identity of a pirate is a thing of the past. I don't want to hear you mention it again."

Zhu Ming looked at Ander with a serious look, which made Ander stop drinking and nodded seriously.

How could a general of the Ming Dynasty keep saying that he used to be a pirate?

Although it is true, if you say it, it is inevitable that there will be people with ulterior motives, which will be bad for your future.

Even if Zhu Yuanzhang wanted to promote him in the future, he would have to take this into consideration.

"Thank you for reminding."

Ander also reacted and toasted Zhu Ming with another bowl of wine.

Zhu Ming then picked up his glass and drank with Ander.

Because of the lack of fresh water and its difficulty in preserving it, these sailors often replenish their water by drinking alcohol.

People like Ander can drink a lot.

However, Zhu Ming was kind-hearted and reminded her again: "You will receive the reward tomorrow. If you get drunk, you will not get any reward."

Considering the pirate's alcohol tolerance, it's okay to let him have a few drinks, but you still have to be careful not to get drunk.

"Don't worry, I don't get drunk that easily."

Ander waved his hand heroically and drank another glass of wine.

He was quite confident about his drinking capacity.

How could one get drunk with such a small amount of wine?
