Chapter 178 No matter what, I have to defect to you (2)(2/2)

"I regard the Lord of the Ryukyu Kingdom as my sibling, so why would I bear to seize his ancestral temple and state?"

For an ordinary person, this matter would be over after a few kowtows.

But this time the person who came was a stubborn one. He raised his head and said, "Your Majesty, I, the Lord of the Ryukyu Kingdom, have long said that I would like to be an idle prince in the Ming Dynasty, better than a wild king of Ryukyu!"

As he spoke, he burst into tears again, "Your Majesty, how could you bear to let me, Ryukyu, hang alone overseas, unable to bathe in God's grace!"

"This matter needs to be discussed in the long run!" Li Jinglong stepped forward, helped the envoy up, and whispered, "Ryukyu and Burma cannot be generalized. Besides, today is the king of Burma who personally comes to Beijing..."

"The leader of my country can come too!"

One sentence made Li Jinglong choked up and even a little embarrassed.

If someone is so sincere, wouldn't it be unreasonable to shirk it anymore?

Hearing this, Zhu Yunxi sighed in his heart that Ryukyu's kindness to China has not faded for thousands of years.

Even if later generations integrated into the Japanese territory, they never regarded themselves as Japanese people. The Chinese emperor's canonization ceremony for them was held on time every year without interruption.

"What I said are the words of the country's leader!" the Ryukyu envoy added, "Now the Ming Dynasty is also using troops against Japan, and Japan has Ming troops stationed there, so why should we, Ryukyu, not do the same?"

"Our country's leader also said that once the Ming Dynasty uses large armies against Japan in the future, our country is willing to serve five hundred athletes as pioneers for our emperor!"

"Why are you causing so much trouble with so many people?" Zhu Yunxi thought to himself, "Besides, this envoy is too honest. In front of so many vassal envoys, he bluntly stated that Ming Dynasty was also thinking about Japan! What do people think of this?
