When they arrived at the dock, Pan Mengyuan, the highest commander of the Ming Fleet in Ryukyu, was already there, and Jin Zhengyuan and Shang B were all there quickly to pay their respects.

Pan Mengyuan is the deputy general of Taiwan's water and land general Zhang Fei. When he saw the officials of Ryukyu coming, he nodded slightly, and did not talk to them. He continued to look northwest. The officials of Ryukyu seemed to have been accustomed to Pan Mengyuan's actions. After performing the ceremony, they stood not far from Pan Mengyuan and waited quietly.

About half an hour later, as someone shouted "Here's coming!", everyone stared at the distance. As expected, several masts gradually emerged from the sea level. After a while, the white sails rose from the blue sea like clouds. As it rose higher and higher, a huge ship shadow finally appeared in front of everyone.

"This... such a big ship!"

The Ming Navy stationed in Ryukyu is still the original warships. These warships are already giant ships in small countries like Ryukyu, but they did not expect that the warships of the fleet that came to the Ming Dynasty would be so huge. The smallest one is twice the size of Pan Mengyuan's flagship. The largest in the fleet, the Thunder, which had just been launched, is even more powerful.

When seeing these warships, the Ryukyu ministers were frightened. Such a powerful fleet, no wonder Lan Yanzhen was defeated in the East China Sea. During this trial voyage, Wang Dong's fleet not only included the Thunder, but also the second- and third-level battleships captured from the Portuguese Far East Fleet. Fortunately, he did not dispatch the Victory battleship. If the Victory was pulled out, I'm afraid that the people of Ryukyu would be scared on the spot.

Compared to those stunned Ryukyu ministers, Pan Mengyuan's cold face showed a smile. Especially when his eyes looked at the Thunder, there was even more intense heat in his eyes.

According to the arrangements of the Ming Navy, after the next four Thunderbolts were launched, Taiwan will be divided into two. Pan Mengyuan, as the deputy general, has already made a note. One of them is of course Zhang Fei's flagship, and as for the other, Pan Mengyuan is unstoppable.

As a navy, Pan Mengyuan, who was born in the Fujian Navy, was very excited when he thought of having such a powerful warship as a flagship. This was also the reason why he arrived at the dock early and waited for most of the day. As the fleet got closer and closer to the port, Pan Mengyuan's eyes became brighter and brighter, and he thought that when the fleet arrived, he had to board the ship and take a good look to get a sneak peek.

Another hour later, Wang Dong's fleet finally arrived at the port. When military music sounded on the shore, Wang Dong and several officials got off the ship. At this moment, the Ming Dynasty's marine soldiers stationed in Ryukyu had lined up neatly on the shore to welcome the arrival of the highest commander of the Ming Dynasty's naval army.

"Shishou Wang has worked hard all the way, and I will finally meet Shuai Wang!" Pan Mengyuan, dressed in military uniform, stepped forward quickly and met Wang Dong according to the naval salute.

Wang Dong replied with a greeting first, then smiled and looked at Pan Mengyuan, patted his shoulder hard and said, "I haven't seen you for more than half a year, you guys have become much darker again."

Pan Mengyuan showed two rows of white teeth and smiled: "Wang Shuai is really a memory. The last time he met was after the battle in Guangdong."

Wang Dong nodded: "Yes, time passes so quickly. In a blink of an eye, so long has passed. I will rest in Ryukyu for a few days. We will have a good chat at that time."

Upon hearing this, Pan Mengyuan's eyes lit up. It seemed that Wang Dong had any tasks to hand over to him. This is a good thing. In the past few months, he has been stationed in Ryukyu and has been idle every day. He has long wanted to go out to exercise his muscles.

"See Marshal Wang!"

After seeing Pan Mengyuan, Wang Dong walked forward accompanied by Pan Mengyuan. After walking a few steps, the ministers of Ryukyu flashed out from the side and knelt down from a distance.

Compared to Pan Mengyuan, who always had a cold face, Wang Dong was much more approachable. He smiled and came forward, so naturally someone introduced the identities of these people to him. Wang Dong helped them up one by one and said some encouragement words with a kindness, nothing more than to make them loyal to the Ming Dynasty and manage the local area well, etc. Seeing that Wang Dong was so polite to them, the Prime Minister Jin Zhengyuan, Wang Shushang Yi, the Political Consultative Officer Zheng Siqi and others were immediately grateful and expressed their loyalty.

"The angels from the country came, and all the people in our country were very happy when they learned about it. My king repeatedly told me to entertain me in the palace. We will hold a banquet in the palace tonight. We will also invite the General Wang and all the great masters to go there to show our king's sincerity." Kim Jong-won said respectfully.

This sounds good, and there is no problem with the words, but it is actually a joke. You must know that the Lord of Ryukyu is only a two-year-old doll. Even if you say something bad, how could such an arrangement be made? However, Wang Dong didn't care about these things. Since he came, he always had to give Ryukyu some face. Besides, he had to pass by Ryukyu, and there were other things to do in addition to passing by. The palace banquet was exactly what he wanted.

"It's so good." Wang Dong said very pleasedly: "This general came here, one was to pass by and replenish supplies, and the other was that the emperor had an order to give the King of Ryukyu. What would he say to the imperial edict in the palace at that time?"

"This is naturally enough according to the king's wishes. I will obey the arrangements." Jin Zhengyuan and others replied quickly, but at the same time they were a little nervous, because they just knew that the Emperor of Ming Dynasty actually gave the order to the King of Ryukyu. What is the order, is it good or bad?

As if they saw their thoughts, Wang Dong smiled and said that it was a good thing. They would know what the specific thing was later, which made these people feel a little relieved.

After leaving the dock, Wang Dong and others went straight to the base of the Ming Dynasty stationed in Ryukyu. This was an area specially assigned to the Ming Dynasty by the Ryukyu Kingdom. It was originally a town. After the Ming Dynasty took over, they re-planned these. Now it is a small town with everything inside, so it is very convenient for Wang Dong and the others to move in.

After taking a short rest, he changed his clothes after taking a shower, Wang Dong and others headed to the palace. The officials of Ryukyu who had already heard the news were waiting in the palace. When Wang Dong and others arrived, all the officials of Ryukyu came in a neat row to greet him.

"The King of your country, where is the Queen Mother now?" Wang Dong asked arrogantly after changing into a first-class court wardrobe.

"Go back to the Grand Marshal, my king and the Queen Mother are in the palace. Please let the Grand Marshal move." Kim Jong-won replied quickly.

Nodded, Wang Dong led his people into the palace. After entering the palace, he saw the empress dowager who was holding the little king was waiting inside. The woman, who was only eighteen or nineteen years old, looked a little frightened. After all, she still didn't know what order the Ming Dynasty would issue to her son. As for King Shang Jing, he was lying in his mother's arms, staring at Wang Dong with curious eyes.

It was not until this time that Wang Dong revealed his mystery. It turned out that the intention he had announced was the intention of the Ming Dynasty Emperor Zhu Yicheng to enthrone the King of Ryukyu. After learning that it was this incident, Ryukyu was not only relieved, but also ecstatic. You should know that after the death of his former king, the young king ascended the throne until now. Although Ryukyu has changed its dynasty, as a vassal state, it has not been formally conferred by the monarchy. After all, it is still unreasonable!

Now, the Ming Dynasty finally enthroned the King of Ryukyu, and the imperial edict was sent by an important official like Wang Dong. This is a great joy! This means that the Ming Dynasty has recognized the status of Ryukyu's vassal state and has also been eliminated for the crimes of collusion with the Qing court before.

Even the little girl, the Empress Dowager, had a look of panic in her expression, replaced by surprise and relief. Even the Empress Dowager, when Wang Dong read the decree, he brought civil and military officials with the little king in his arms and knelt down to receive the imperial edict.

After the imperial edict was read and the Empress Dowager received the imperial edict from Wang Dong, the Ryukyu was filled with joy and loudly praised the Ming Dynasty and the Emperor!

But before this was over, Wang Dong immediately took out another decree. This decree was not as formal as the one just enthroned. The content of the decree was roughly that Zhu Yicheng cared for the little king very much. As a vassal state, Ryukyu had been in the Ming Dynasty since the Yongle period, so Zhu Yicheng also gave Ryukyu a grace, which was to specially send a teacher to the little king. This teacher would guide the little king to learn and grow, so that he could learn the words of the saints and practice the virtues of the saints, and would be the wise ruler of Ryukyu in the future.

The ministers of Ryukyu, and even the Queen Mother, had no objection to this. Especially the queen mother who was the little girl, although her son was the king and the legitimate son of the former king, she was young and even the smallest country, and there were powerful ministers. Whether it was the prime minister, the uncle of the king or even the doctors, since she ascended the position of the queen mother, the little queen mother had been uneasy, fearing that something would happen to her and her son that day.

Now, the Ming Dynasty not only officially enthroned his son, but from this point of view, his son's position as king is unshakable. Now he has found a teacher for his son, which has given him another amulet. With the protection of the teacher, those court officials will naturally not be too much. This is a good thing for her and the little king.

But the empress dowager thought so, but others had other ideas, such as the three prime minister Jin Zhengyuan, Wang Shushangyi, and the political consultant Zheng Siqi. As the three strongest in the court, they certainly did not want a royal army to exist, but this was the will of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty and could not be rejected, so their mood was very complicated about this matter.

As for the royal army assigned by Zhu Yicheng to the little king, this time he followed Wang Dong. This person was not someone else, but He Xianzu, the governor of Zhejiang and the current Minister of Rites.

He Xianzu has a good official position and is considered a senior official in the court. He has done his best in the past few years and has done well in the Ministry of Rites. Moreover, he was a Jinshi and wrote good articles, which is enough to be the teacher of the little king.
