Chapter fifty-one

The dragon bones are made of Duzhu, and are twenty-nine meters long. The Zhuque and Taotie are the same length, but the width is different. The Zhuque has a length, width, and the Taotie has a length, width, and the Taotie has a length, width, of three to five to one. In addition, the length, length, and width of the Zhuque is also higher than that of the Taotie, accounting for three-quarters of the total length of the ship. Subtracting the part that is infiltrated into the hull, it is still twenty-five meters higher than the sea surface.

The twenty-five-meter mast was hung with sails that were twelve meters wide, without oars or rushing. The giant floated over from the sea, which was indeed quite scary for those who had never seen sailboats. And seeing the Shaosi Ming level, I was also shocked. He thought that the 100-ton Shaosi Ming was already a big boat, and the Shaosi Ming level was completely a witch compared with the Suzaku.

"Bless the God of Thunder!" Xi Han, the envoy of Ouluo Kingdom, prayed for the blessing of the God of Thunder. The King of Anyang sent him to show the majesty of Ouluo Kingdom, prepared a large number of exquisite bronze drums and warriors, as well as the best cross-sea canoes in Ouluo. However, the sea boats of the Chu people were almost like a sea city, powerful and weak, advanced and backward, and were all understood.

Knowing fear is an instinctive and natural habit. Yue people are vulgar and not as proud as Qi people. When the Suzaku horn fell on the anchor and threw cables, Xiongjing came down the ladder and landed on the shore, the messenger Xihan had already followed Zuofu Shan to salute.

"I have seen the king." Gong Shi Si, Zuo Fu Shan and the other two stood in front, with the elders of the tribe with a bun and a head-clothed shirt beside them. Behind the elders are some small tribe chiefs. The tribes are tied to tribes, which is the rule model of Yue people.

"No gift." Xiong Jing's eyes did not stop at the public military, Zuo Fushan and others, but looked at the subjects behind them. They did not look sideways like the people in the Central Plains, but looked at themselves curiously from the sea boat. Some of the people in front of them might be merchants. They were mostly dressed in silk, and they wore black cloth crowns on their heads. Behind them are ordinary Yue people, with no crowns and vertebrae, and their dark legs were naked under their heads. In addition to people, there were elephants, and a row of elephants rolled their noses. Do they yell a few times?

"Dingkou..." Panyu City is only three miles away, and the city is more than one meter high. Naturally, there are very few such small cities in Dingkou.

When Xiong Jing mentioned the people, the Gongshi blushed. He explained: "The people of Yue do not like living in cities but prefer living in mountains, so there are not many people in Panyu."

"It's better for me to move to the mountains." Zuo Wuzhu, who came with Xiong Jing, was very disrespectful. Xiong Jing only said the word "Dingkou". He was so good that he said that Nanyue was not as good as Minyue, which immediately attracted the glare of the great elders beside Gongshi.

"There will be something from Dingkou." Xiong Jing didn't want them to argue. "As long as there is enough food and fodder, the medical skills will be improved."

"What the king said is very much." The Gongshi nodded. "Nanwu has grown millet, and those who study medicine in Yingdu can return to the city next year. Iron tools are better than bronze and stone tools, and everyone calls them convenience."

"King, this is Xi Han, the envoy of the Anyang King of Ouluo." Zuo Fushan took advantage of the time and introduced Xi Han, the envoy of Ouluo to Xiong Jing.

Xi Han was shocked at the huge size of the Zhuque, but the huge sea boat came down with a childish voice that had not left him, which surprised him. Fortunately, he did not forget the etiquette that Zuo Fushan taught him, and after the introduction, he bowed to Xiong Jing and spoke in Yue.

"The king, the envoy said that he had never seen such a boat, nor had he seen such a king." Zuo Fu was very good at translating Xi Han's words. "The king of Ouluo is willing to join forces with Chu forever."

Luoyue and Ouluo are close to each other, but Luoyue is not as good as Nanyue. Nanyue has Panyu City, and Luoyue does not even have Panyu City, and there is only a tray building in Hepu. In the Ouluo City (Silong City, or Guluo City), which was founded in later generations, was 20 miles long, and it was indeed possible to despise Luoyue and Nanyue. However, compared with Chu, the self-civilized Ouyue was just a more advanced barbarian. Xihan, who knew it, hoped that the two countries would "unstop fighting forever", was very worried that the Chu people would attack Ouluo.

"Buying is here just to make navigation, and does not want to attack." Xiong Jing looked at the Ou Luo envoy. Compared with Zuo Fushan, he had few tattoos on his face, all of his clothes were made of silk, and his feet were covered with shoes. "However, the elders of Luoyue, Tai and other tribes were discussing affairs in the Chu State. If they wanted to attack other tribes, Buying could not stop him."

Zuo Fushan took a long time to explain the "Zhengchao" and "controversy" to Xihan. Because Chu and Yue united, it turned out that a very small tribe could also pretend to be a tiger's power, even more serious than a tiger's power. The Baiyue Elder of the Zheng Dynasty could indeed propose to send troops to punish a tribe or state that did not belong to the Chu and Yue alliance. Xihan, who was increasingly aware of the essence of the Chu and Yue alliance, became more and more serious. He did not speak, but only bowed to Xiong Jing again.

"Report to the king, the envoys of Ouluo presented twenty pairs of ivory, twenty pairs of bronze drums, hundreds of beads, and ten pairs of elephants..." Zuo Fushan mentioned Ouluo's gifts, including twenty elephants.

"Please accept it." Xiong Jing looked at Chang Jiang. "You can give it back as appropriate."

"Please enter the city." After the Ouluo envoy said the matter, the official teacher invited Xiong Jing to enter the city. The pier is still a long way from the city, but there is no road here to Panyu. The tool for transportation is elephant. Riding a horse, Xiong Jing is familiar with it, and riding an elephant can be...

"The king may be able to ride a horse." The right historical figure saw Xiong Jing's hesitation. There were also elephants in Yingdu Gardens, but no one had ever ridden them.

"Nothing happened." The elephant master had already asked the elephant to kneel down. The elephant had hanged down the wooden ladder. Xiong Jing sat up on the wooden ladder.

"Moo—!" The elephant roared again, and its body like a mountain swayed, and then slowly moved forward. In amazement, the Yue people around the dock also shouted. Xiong Jing couldn't understand Yue language, and didn't understand what they were shouting.

"Since the king of your country has said he has given up his betrothal, he should not go back on his word." The envoy of the Qi capital's imperial palace looked at Zhu Ao, headed by Zuokai, and said this. A daughter cannot marry two husbands. Since Qi and Qin are in marriage, they must retire with Chu. However, except for Xiong Jing that day, he said that he had never been married, the State of Chu did not send envoys to Linzi to request a divorce.

"I am very sorry for this." Zuo Kai said in a negotiated manner. "The world knows that Chu and Qi have a marriage alliance. How can I understand the truth about Ping? The words of the king and the words of indignation. Why should your country be serious? The despise country has not sent envoys to Qi, so how can I withdraw Ping?"

"The King of Chu went back on his word?" Qi Envoy thought that the retreat was natural, but he did not expect that the Chu people would not agree.

"If you say that the widow goes back on your word, what is the king of Qi?" Cheng Jie interrupted, and he became more and more disliked by Qi people.

"The words of the nun who have joined the alliance have not been discussed by the public, so they are not connected." Qi Shi's momentum was frustrated and he hurriedly explained to Tian Jian.

"I have never given up on the public opinion, so I will not retreat." Zou Kai, who stood in front of Cheng Jie, said anxiously, who strongly expressed his presence.

"It's outrageous!" Qi envoy was a little anxious. "Because the King of Chu retired to the betrothal, I have married the people of Qin and appointed Princess Kejia as the crown princess of Qin. Since the King of Chu had something to say before, it was necessary to retire to the betrothal."

"The Qi and Chu alliance are full of blood and pits, how can we play like this!" Cheng Jie said angrily. "If the widow knows this, he will definitely be furious."

"This is because the King of Chu said he would give up the betrothal, why blame the despise country?" Qi envoy argued vigorously. "The King of Chu accepted the ceremony of the conquest, and the envoy had already taken it to Yingdu. It is worthy of the princess's dowry ceremony. The widowed king thought that the country would not return it."

"If Qi State promises the widowed king's wife to be a Qin person..." Naojiu stopped Cheng Jie, who was extremely angry, and stared at Qi's envoy. "The consequences are at your own risk."

"What are the consequences?" Qi envoy asked. "If I hadn't helped the country with food and fodder in the past year, the State of Chu would have been hungry."

"Insulting our Chu State, we need to attack!" Cheng Jie kicked the several cases in front of him and wanted to draw his sword.

"The King of Qi is really married to Qin?" Zhuaoli Dongyegu's anger was the least, Chu Qi had a bad relationship, and the people who were most hurt were the people of Lu.

"That's right." Qi envoy looked at Dongyegu, "Chu Qi was swearing to make an alliance with blood and vowed not to attack. Moreover, the King of Chu said that the King of Chu wanted to withdraw his bench. Since the King of Chu wanted to withdraw his bench, our Qi State could grant the princess a favor to others. What's wrong with this?"

"But I have never retired!" Dongye Gu shook his head constantly. The Qi envoy was indeed right, but the problem was that if the Chu State withdraws from the pupil, there was no result in the court discussion, and no one was sent to Qi State to withdraw from the pupil. Now the Qi people are arguing, which is really hateful.

"Why should Zijian say too much to him?" Cheng Jie was dissatisfied with Dongye Gu's gentle voice and said, "The people of Qi are often deceitful and good at cheating. What does it mean that the words of the widowed king are first? In fact, Qi wants to help Qin to abuse it and be a good alliance with Qin. We must fight against it."

"The State of Qi not only despises me, but also goes against my word." Zhao Shu shook his head like Dong Yegu. He felt that this was not just a matter of marriage and marriage, but this was the State of Qi's previous diplomatic issues with relatives and Chu. He raised his hand and bowed, "Please return with Qi, please don't forget to tell the King of Qi: The widow will be angry in this matter. If the widow is angry, please be proud of Qi."

Before the king could grow, he had the courage to stand in front of the formation and inspire the morale of the Chu army. Now that the king grows older, it is hard for Zhaoshu to imagine that he would do something earth-shaking. But one thing is certain that the King of Qi would definitely pay the price for it.

"Since Zhu Ao is known, I will leave." In the end, he did not tear his face. Qi's envoy, who thought he would die, laughed dryly and bowed to his back. He did not go back to the inn and hurriedly left the city and returned to the country.

After Qi's envoy left, the emperor's mansion was silent for a long time. Zuo Kai sighed, "This is the Qin people's plan. If you accept it, the people in the world will laugh at me. If you attack it, the Chu and Qi countries will no longer be alliances. What if it is?"

"The Qi people are unstable, what's the benefit of the alliance?" Cheng Jie, who had been to Qi, disliked the Qi people the most. "I thought this matter would be necessary to attack each other. If the people in the world do not attack us, the Qi people thought they had a plan."

"The attack on Qi is no longer planned." Dongye Gu opposed the attack on Qi, and Lan She's view was the same as him: "If you attack Qi, how can you accumulate grain?"

"How can you establish authority if you don't attack?" Cheng Jie confronted him tit-for-tat.

"I thought I should attack." Naojiu stood on Chengjie's side, "This is because the Qi people wanted to be close to Qin, but if they did not attack, they would definitely take our Chu State as an enemy in the future."

"I also thought I should cut down." Zhaoshu's opinion was the same as Naojiu, and the three of them agreed. He looked at the great elder Song of Xiou.
