In the closed convention hall of the Dongyang Military Government Office, the air was like being scorched by flames, exuding a heart-wrenching tension.

Envoys from the forty-four countries, including the Ming Dynasty, gathered together, and everyone looked at each other and no one spoke.

They are discussing matters and discussing the general meetings of all countries in the world.

In fact, for such a thing, the so-called envoys of the forty-four countries, only a few countries can speak, and only the Ming Dynasty has the power to make decisions.

Just now, Zhao Shizhen of the Dongyang Military Palace announced in the meeting hall that they had arranged forty-three heavy artillery on Mubin Mountain near Chaotian Palace. When the conference was held, all the envoys would stand on the main road in Mo County, south of the Chaotian Road, and lined up.

When the military music sounded, the fully armed Beiyang Banner military formation came from west to east. The envoys of the forty-three kingdoms were to come out in turn, following the sound of salutes and shouting, and performing three bows and nine bows in the direction of the Western Beijing on the way to heaven.

Forty-three artillery fired forty-four volleys, symbolizing the surrender and respect of the forty-three countries to the Emperor Ming, and the last volley was the welcome of the Eastern Military Office to them.

Next, as democratic time comes, Zhao Shizhen wants everyone to discuss the order of rituals.

There was a silence, and the countries with the seats behind basically didn't speak, just looked at the front.

They sat in two rows, eighteen seats on each side. Due to insufficient performance, there were several messengers sitting outside the long table against the wall on both sides.

There are only two chairs in front.

On the left is Ye Mengxiong, who is covered with a bulging robe and python suit, sitting in a solemn look.

Chen Mu on the right side was also wearing a python robe, but his python robe was worn under the armor, and a skeleton with a dragon-embedded silver craft with a high helmet and red spear was placed on the table in front of him, smiling and slitting his ears with a small golden spoon.

Behind the two, one left and one right, stood a follower holding the imperial gift of Shangfang Sword.

Between them, Zhao Shizhen standing around looking around, and his expression unconsciously showed arrogance.

On the left of Ye Mengxiong, the first messenger was the monk Acosta from Spain. He wore a black robe and a silver cross on his chest, and pressed the scriptures on the table with both hands.

Behind Acosta are France, Habsburg and the envoys of the Principality.

On Chen Mu's right, the first envoy was Kaopahsha from Ottoman. This time the envoy did not shoulder any bad mission for him. Sutan didn't let him do anything, and he only asked that as long as the Ming Dynasty did not declare war on Ottoman after he came back, he would be a perfect mission.

For no other reason, the Ottomans had just captured Azerbaijan, Armenia, Georgia and even Tabriz in a war with the Persians. Now the two sides are carrying out a series of small-scale attacks on each other on the border, and have no strength to care about anything else.

As long as the Ming Dynasty did not fight, for the Ottoman envoy Kaopahsha, he had no intention of reaching anything with the Ming Dynasty, eating and drinking well, and doing whatever he wanted. When it was time to go back, he would take a boat back to receive the reward.

Even Pasha sent by Gesutanguo sitting behind him did not speak, especially when he saw his relaxed expression, everyone felt relieved.

Three bows and nine bows are not a problem. We can kneel at home even if we have nothing to do.

However, Caopasha's reaction shocked Acosta a little. He felt unhappy in his heart, and he didn't dare to say it.

Originally, he was counting on the Ottoman envoy who had never fought with the Ming Dynasty and said it, but he didn't expect that this guy would watch Chen Mu's ears and watch it with relish, and even felt in the mood to drink the juice in front of him, without any complaints.

There was no choice but to move his own people. As soon as Acosta cleared his throat, he saw Ye Mengxiong, who was not angry and powerful, humming from his nose, humming "Hmm?", and scared him so much that he picked up the cup and took a sip.

Taking advantage of this gap, he glanced back and winked at the many small country envoys sitting outside the table.

He opposed this, not because he didn't want to do it, but they wanted to form an anti-French alliance, and Spain was the leader. In this case, everyone would kneel down in the direction of the Ming Emperor, which was too detrimental to Spain's prestige.

But there are a lot of people who don’t understand.

The only one who responded was the Monaco messenger, who stood up and mumbled: "I'm the first!"

It almost made Ye Mengxiong laugh out loud and break the power. Acosta looked at him again, so that the Monaco messenger said what he wanted to hear: "Three bows and nine bows, no."

Although it was quite soft, it still made Acosta very excited.

But as soon as the words were finished, a familiar voice seemed to pull Acosta from heaven to the cold hell.

"Can't?"

Acosta hadn't heard Chen Mu speak in a bad tone for a long time, and suddenly heard a familiar tone, which made his back stand up.

The last time the owner of this voice spoke in such a tone, thousands of Spaniards died in Mexico and failed to break into the New World.

But soon, when he looked over, he saw Chen Mu's calm face, slightly tilted his head, his eyes crossed Acosta's shoulder and looked at the Monaco messenger behind him, throwing the little golden spoon that was digging his ears onto the table.

With a little doubt on his face, he raised his hand and waved it: "Where is Monaco? Exited from Asia."

"The Ming Dynasty Eastern Military Office does not recognize the Principality of Monaco as a legitimate regime."

After saying that, he turned his head to look at Acosta and said, "I hope that when the Ming Dynasty fleet in Gibraltar is approaching Monaco, Spain can remove its defense against Monaco as soon as possible to prevent rifts from the relationship between the two countries."

Monk Acosta rarely tried hard, hoping that Spain could fulfill its obligations to protectors. He mustered up almost all the courage in his life and reminded Chen Mu in a tactful way: "The Spanish Naples fleet in the Mediterranean is closer to Monaco than the Ming Dynasty fleet."

But beyond Acosta's expectations, Chen Mu picked up the ear-drawing spoon again and ignored him.

Acosta thought that Chen Mu would say something else, but he never thought that Chen Mu didn't even look at him, and had no response at all, making him wonder if he had spoken in public.

In the embarrassing silence, Chen Mu turned around and started chatting with Kaopahsha who was sitting at hand.

Not only did he chat, he was also rolling cigarettes with cigarette paper. After rolling the cigarette, he handed it over to Kaopahia and even lit it on fire!

After lit the fire, the man whose tail was raised to the sky actually raised his hand and patted Kaopahsha's arm twice with a smile.

"I think your muskets are very good, and the barrel craftsmanship is very special. I will give me two craftsmen back? That's it. Don't forget that when you are leaving, I'll give you a few good rings, the best ones."

Kaopasha was happy, and even held a cigarette and showed it to the envoys of Sudantan who were traveling with him very proudly.

What is style? Well? The Eastern Minister just asked his subordinates to insert a pagan away, and turned around and rolled a cigarette for me.

"No problem. The Minister of the East asked two ships to follow me. When I arrived in Constantinople, I would load all the craftsmen onto you, musketeers, cannoners, goldsmiths, silversmiths, coppersmiths, blacksmiths, and blacksmiths. All of them were given to you, the best."

Chen Mu took off the jade stick on his thumb and applauded: "Okay!"

Acosta was still stunned. Ye Mengxiong had already turned his body slightly and gently advised him: "Brother, I will take over here from now on. Let me see, General Fu is closer to Lisbon, it's almost the same."
