In the early morning, King Shangyuan woke up from his gorgeous tent, but did not make a sound immediately. Instead, he looked at the tent made of exquisite Suzhou embroidery and was in a daze.

Although Ryukyu does not raise silkworms and cannot weave silk, they are favored by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. Every time they pay tribute, they will receive countless lake silk, Su embroidery, Shu brocade, and kesi as rewards, and they can even customize embroidery patterns from the official weaving bureau in Jiangnan.

For example, the large-scale Su embroidery "Marriage Map of King Shang Zhen" on his marching tent was embroidered by the pattern he issued a few years ago and commissioned the Suzhou Weaving Bureau to embroider. The content of the pattern is the eight great achievements of his grandfather Shang Zhen.

The fifty years of King Shangzhen's reign were the most prosperous period in Ryukyu's history. He quelled the Iron-Mi-Ki-Horse Rebellion in the Yaeshan Islands; conquered the Kumeji Censorate and the Hishikawa Censorate; suppressed the "Ghost and Tiger Rebellion", conquered the Yonaku Island... His martial arts were brilliant and shining for the ages, and basically laid the territory of the Zhongshan Kingdom.

In addition, he also established the rank of officials in Ryukyu, the ritual system, the priest system, the tax system, and the administrative division of Ryukyu, expanded Shuri Castle, abolished the custom of burial for burial, and summoned local officials to live in Shuri, prohibited private possession of weapons, strengthened centralization, and finally allowed Ryukyu to escape from the state of ignorance and enter the stage of peace in the enlightenment. He was the greatest Zhongshan king recognized by the Ryukyu people.

Although King Shangyuan had never seen his grandfather, he grew up listening to his grandfather's deeds. Because he was born the following year after his grandfather's death, the ministers often said that he was the wise ruler who gave it to the Ryukyu people by the Lord and God of Handmo to inherit the Weiye of King Shangzhen.

There are so many people who say it, even he thinks so himself... In fact, this is also beneficial. At least he has high self-requirements and does not do well.

At the beginning of his ascension, with the assistance of the Kumi clan, he defeated the Heweimei group. Ge Kechang's reactionary group attempted to violate the orders of the previous king and establish a new king. He took this opportunity to gradually weaken several major families that were too big to lose.

When the Japanese turmoil broke out, Ryukyu was located in the center of the sea trade, so he naturally suffered from Japanese disasters. He led his subjects to build two fortresses in Naba Port - the South Fort and the North Fort. He also purchased muskets, cannons, armor and gunpowder, led 3,000 royal palace troops to resist Japanese pirates for many years, captured enemy ships several times, and returned the captured Ming people to the Heavenly Dynasty. He received several commendations from the Ming father...

With the victory of the Celestial Empire's anti-Japanese war, the Japanese strife in Ryukyu has basically disappeared in recent years. The ministers around them all boasted that this was a martial art comparable to King Shang Zhen.

However, he felt that he was still far from that. His grandfather's eight martial arts were in charge of the imperial army, but he just huddled in Shuri City and defended passively for more than ten years based on the fort. Isn't this optimistic enough?

At least one person must be in person, even if it is only once.

But the ministers tried every means to stop him, and even used the example of Emperor Yingzong of the Celestial Dynasty's visit to the north and Emperor Wuzong's southern tour to scare him. He said that the king of a country should not be in danger easily, so you should stay in Shuri Castle.

After hearing this kind of cliché too much, Shang Yuan naturally sneered at it. Emperor Yingzong had a treacherous minister around him. As for Emperor Wuzong, it was even more surprising. The emperor who was wandering in the lake and falling into the water could not have a second one, right?

So just because of these two times, we can't just say that the king will die if he leaves the king, right?

Emperor Chengzu and Emperor Xuanzong have all been in charge of the emperor, but have they all returned to triumph? So the king's life is in heaven, not in the mouth of his ministers! King Shangyuan, who has been in power for many years, is so confident!

Especially over the years, he obviously felt that his health was not as good as before. He felt that if he did not seek personal expeditions, he would never have the chance to establish a great cause that would be as powerful as his ancestors in his life.

Therefore, this rebellion on Amami Oshima, King Shangyuan disagreed with the public and insisted on his own efforts to fight! Prove that he is the King of Ryukyu who carried forward King Shangzhen's Weiye!

The result was also very perfect. This time, he personally led the army to conquer the island. The thieves overestimated their own abilities and led their troops to fight. After several battles, they were defeated and left. The king's army went deep into the territory, with golden drums shaking the sky, and their momentum was like thunder. The thieves were shocked, and countless surrendered. The thieves were powerless to fight and were tied up and killed. He ordered the establishment of a chief, pacifying the people, and the army was triumphant!

I am so outstanding. I am indeed the Lord of the East China Sea favored by God...

When he went to war, the officials and ministers who were as if they were losing their parents, he was so happy that he died.

This time when I return to the court, I must ridicule them at the welcoming ceremony.

How to say it?

Yes, just say, 'Look, Gu has come back all the time? There is no Beizhou, nor has he fallen into the water... I believe that the king's life is in heaven now, right?'

Thinking of this, King Shangyuan was so heartless that he could no longer lie down.

He turned over and sat up, wishing he could put his wings on and fly back to Shuli City, and immediately pretended to be Boyi!

~~

Hearing the movement, the eunuch Zi Laixi, who served him, hurried in to check it out.

"Master, don't you sleep for a while?" What Zi Laixi said was a pretty standard Ming Dynasty official speech.

"I can't sleep anymore." Shang Yuan sat up with his help and said, "I'm older, I feel less."

"The king is really joking. You are still in full swing." Ji Laixi knelt down and put on his shoes, and said with apologies.

"It's forty-two, and the spring and autumn are still in full swing?" Shang Yuan held his shoulder and stood up slowly and said, "Gu's body is not as good as before. This time, he has only been in personal expedition for a month, and he feels like his whole body is about to fall apart."

"Aren't the king joking? After a month of battle, even the young man will be exhausted." Zi Laixi greeted him, and the palace servants waiting outside brought a basin of water and sanitary ware in to serve King Shangyuan to wash.

"Go back and take a break, and the king will become fierce again." Ji Laixi skillfully helped him put his hair on his head, while comforting him with a smile. In fact, the old eunuch knew in his heart that King Shang Yuan's body was indeed not as good as before. This time he did not listen to the dissuasion and insisted on expedition in person, and there were signs of overwork being sick.

‘Fortunately, I’m back now.’ Thinking of this, Ji Laixi breathed a sigh of relief.

"When you say this, I am really a little homeless." King Shang Yuan said with a cheerful expression: "Give me a cup of soaking to refresh myself!"

"Uh, just one drink?" King Shang Yuan had severe alcohol swelling. Before he arrived, the princess repeatedly told him not to let him drink. But what is Ji Lai Xi? How dare you stop the prince from letting him drink? If you can let him drink less, it is Amitabha.

"Since you, listen to you." But today Shang Yuan was in a good mood, so he became good.

Soon, the palace servant brought a square table with Korean wooden inlaid with exquisite breakfast.

In addition to the eighteen freshly roasted desserts, there are also hairy crab bird's nests made with pine nuts, black beans, eggs, and ham; there are shark fins made with shrimps and mushrooms; there are also quail steamed with pine mushrooms, sea cucumbers made with chicken skin, ham and dried bamboo shoots as auxiliary ingredients; and soups stewed with red shells and Ganoderma lucidum.

All of this food is placed in exquisitely patterned gold tableware, and the plate is exquisitely arranged.

The pair of rhinoceros horn chopsticks offered by Zi Laixi are even more expensive than ivory chopsticks and golden chopsticks, and are said to be able to test the poison.

Ryukyu made a lot of money in the re-export trade and received endless rewards from the Ming Dynasty. The royal family's food, clothing and consumption are naturally very particular. Even when they go to war, from ingredients to dishes to tableware, they must strictly follow the regulations, and they will not be careless at all.

It's breakfast. If it's lunch or dinner, there are eighteen dishes for hot dishes...

But King Shangning's eyes were all about the "Jia Bottle" that Ji Laixi brought out. In fact, it was just a large glass bottle. Ryukyu naturally came into contact with this imported product early, but the price was still expensive and was regarded as a special wine utensil for the royal family, which was held for more than a hundred years.

"Pour a little full." Seeing that Zi Laixi poured a cup into the porcelain cup, he couldn't wait to pick it up and drink it. He ate some shark fin and put it in wine. After that glass of wine was finished, he would have finished breakfast.

And almost no one moved the expensive dishes.

~~

After breakfast, the princes, officials and officials came to the tent to wait in line.

Shang Yuan then put his clothes neatly and slowly walked out of the tent with the help of Zi Laixi.

It is said that the superiors have a special ability, that is, no matter how tired and haggard he is behind the person, he will immediately become more energetic when he arrives in front of him.

King Shangyuan had such ability.

When he appeared in front of his ministers wearing a phoenix-winged helmet, long armor, and a sea sword hanging on his waist, he was as stable as Mount Tai, with a vast and shady mountain, showing his kingly demeanor.

"The king is thousands of years old!" The ministers quickly knelt down and greeted the king.

"Please calm down." Shang Yuan nodded slightly and asked the judicial officer Ma Deshun, who was responsible for commanding the troops: "Have the soldiers gathered?"

"Go back to the king, the army has been assembled, and all the ships are ready. Just wait for the king's holy teachings to board the ship and set off." Ma Deshun hurriedly replied.

"Okay, not bad." Shang Yuan nodded with satisfaction, held the hilt of the sword in his hand and smiled at the ministers: "You all are all home, right?"

"Where is the place where the king is here is our hometown..." The ministers and ministers hurriedly flattered.

"Hahaha, don't do this." King Shangyuan laughed loudly as he stepped out of the Central Military Camp, "Let's go, you don't have to hurry, the soldiers can't wait."

When the ministers and the ministers came out surrounded by King Shangyuan, the three thousand Ryukyu soldiers wearing red square hats, blue cloth clothes, and wooden clogs had been waiting for a long time.

In fact, after this war, the Ryukyu soldiers brought by King Shangyuan were less than 3,000. However, he forced hundreds of young and strong men from the surrendered local natives to join the three thousand royal palace soldiers. This could create the illusion that there was no loss on his own side and strengthen his momentum. Furthermore, it could also weaken the local indigenous forces.

He kills two birds with one stone, and he is extremely wise!

King Shang Yuan secretly praised himself before ordering the soldiers who were kneeling down to welcome him to get up, and then gave them a long speech to the triumphant resounding... mainly boasting. Until he spoke dryly and couldn't continue, he ordered the troops to return to the court with unsatisfactory words!
