Chapter 368 Something's Not Right (Continued)

?In private time, Zhang Yu talked with Li Sanjiu who was visiting the house. Both of them were old people from the emperor's residence and were so familiar that they could not be familiar with each other, so there was no scenes, and they could directly get to the point after a few greetings.

Of course, Li Sanjiu is not just about reminiscing about the past. Zhang Yu is about to accompany the envoy of the dynasty to Japan, shouldering the special mission entrusted by the emperor. The emperor had already explained it carefully before, but suddenly there were some advice today, so he asked Li Sanjiu, who happened to be in the palace to convey it.

"Your Majesty means that after the envoy arrives in the capital of Japan, the other party's prince Ashito must come out to greet him and give him a reward as agreed in advance. If the other party is sick, then wait until the illness is cured before conducting relevant ceremonies. The other party is never allowed to fool him."

"What about that time limit?" Zhang Yu asked.

"Two months, no waiting for the deadline," Li Sanjiu said this and smiled faintly: "It doesn't take much effort to greet and thank and reward. If you are so 'sick' that you don't even have this strength, then there is nothing to say."

Zhang Yu nodded: "Since that's the case, I understand."

After talking about business affairs, Li Sanjiu married his son a while ago. His few friends were invited to have wedding banquets and sent gifts. The gifts given by Zhang Yu were extremely expensive, and Li Sanjiu returned the gifts afterwards.

This time I came to the door with a gift, and thanked my friend again for giving him the face that day.

"Hey, everyone is an old man from the Qiandi Palace, so why are you so kind?" Zhang Yu smiled and waved his hand, "That year my son got married, you also gave me a big gift, and it was even."

"You can't say that, one code will be the same." Li Sanjiu took out the gift he brought. It turned out to be a lion skin. Judging from its intact, it can be called the best.

He spread the lion skin and said, "The wind and waves on the sea are strong, and the lion skin produced in Persia is just right for the owner of the five-masted ship to be a cloak!"

According to traditional sayings, tigers are the king of all beasts, but lions are more powerful than tigers. It is very obvious to wear a cloak made of lion skin on your body. Zhang Yu is a wise man and knows that there are some special ways to give away precious treasures:

"Oh, Lao Li, this treasure must be presented to Your Majesty, I dare not accept it."

"There are more than these lion skins. Your Majesty looks down on you. Your Majesty waves his hand when he hears it. So the lion skin I offer is given to several generals as cloaks, and the remaining one is left. Your Majesty let me put it on myself..."

"I don't go to the battlefield, so what's the use of this majesty? After thinking about it, the owner of the five-mast ship is traversing and wearing a lion's leather cloak is not bad..."

After some refusal, Zhang Yu accepted the gift and talked with Li Sanjiu while drinking. After more than half an hour, Li Sanjiu said goodbye. Zhang Yu looked at the lion's skin and thought about it.

Be cautious and low-key in life. This is something Zhang Yu has always reminded himself to pay attention to. Several generals have made great achievements in fighting and are wearing lion leather cloaks, which is the majesty they deserve.

And he is a boatman wearing this lion's skin...

So this lion skin cannot be kept for yourself, otherwise it will appear too ostentatious.

Why not... just give it to the powerful Japanese minister Su Imazi?

Zhang Yu thought so, but he felt that the other party would not keep it for himself, because it was too ostentatious, so in the end, he might give it to the King of Japan.

It doesn't matter. Anyway, it's the other party's business that he gives gifts and how the person who receives the gifts deals with the gifts.
