?? "Secretary!" Dahuang Malu was very excited and shouted regardless of the rudeness: "Secretary, I have seen him at the Zhou Ting banquet. He is the Duke of Zhengjiuming County of Zhou State!"

"Zheng...What is Zhengjiu Life?" Su I and Ma Zi were not very clear about the official system of the Central Plains.

"He is a royal family of the Zhou Kingdom, one of the few members of the Yuwen royal family, with a noble status. His father was like a minister in the Zhou Kingdom... slightly inferior to the status of a minister in our country..." Dahuang Malu didn't know how to explain for a while, so he could only use this method to explain the other party's identity.

"What did you say!!"

Even though Su I and Ma Zi had learned the cultivation, they were so shocked that they stood up to ask questions. Sima Da and others have come back to their senses: No wonder the other people who came here obeyed the orders so much from this "Yu Langjun".

"Secretary, this Yuwen Langjun cannot...can't just leave!"

"Yes, yes! Quick, hurry up, you and the village master of Sima go to Bodo immediately and invite this Yu...wen to the capital!"

"Remember, please invite him no matter what!"

Su I-Ma Zi made a quick decision. His first thought was to rush to Bota in person to welcome the noble man of Zhou. However, as the head of the Su I-Clan, he could not easily stay away from the capital, so he had to send his subordinates to rush there immediately.

The exchanges between the Japanese and the Central Plains powers have been around for hundreds of years since the Eastern Han Dynasty of the Central Plains. Although there is not much exchange, the Japanese monarchs and ministers know that the Central Plains' eyes look at them just like looking at the barbarians.

Even if they sent envoys to visit Japan, they were not interested, not to mention that Japan, Baekje, Silla and even Goguryeo have always regarded the Central Plains and Southern Dynasties as the main theme, and the Central Plains and Northern Dynasties were also very dissatisfied with this.

However, over the past few hundred years, the strength of the Central Plains and Southern Dynasties has declined. It seems that they may not be able to save the country in more than ten years. Therefore, their attitude towards Zhou, such as Japan, Baekje, Silla and even Goguryeo are turning around.

But even so, the Zhou Kingdom was still not interested in them. This time, when the Great Wilderness Malu was sent to Zhou Kingdom, he did not see Zhou Ting sending an envoy to Japan, let alone a noble person coming to Japan.

But now one is here!

With the testimony of the Great Wilderness Malu, Yuwen Wen's identity can be confirmed. Su I and Ma Zi know that if this Zhou royal family can be invited to the capital to meet the king, it will be an extraordinary thing in the history of Japan.

If the Zhou royal family can be persuaded to strengthen their ties with Japan, then the two countries can organize fleet exchanges to introduce a large number of people and bring more advanced skills and culture from the Central Plains. Isn’t this the goal pursued by Su Mu family?

Another goal is to recover the Renna area on the peninsula. This is the foothold of Japan on the peninsula, but it was captured by Silla more than 60 years ago. If it can get the help of Zhou Kingdom in the Central Plains and rectify the troops and regain lost territory, it will be an amazing achievement.

Without further ado, Simada and others and Maro Dayuan immediately set off for Namba, where they took a boat west to Kitakyushu Hakata. This distance took several days a day. In addition, the time Simada and others spent from escorting the Buddha statue to the capital, it had been more than half a month back and forth.

Yuwen Wen's ship is probably about to be repaired, and it will be too late if you don't get faster!

......

"The north wind blows, the autumn wind is cool. Whose wife is guarding the empty room? If you have any difficulties, I will help me. I live next door and my surname is Wang..."

Yuwen Wen was in a very good mood and did not hesitate to his wife guarding the empty room, humming the song of Lao Wang next door, standing on the bow of the boat and feeling the cold north wind. Today, the north wind is blowing, which is a good day for the wind to go with the wind.

It is mid-December, and the four ships that survived the storm last month have been repaired, the damaged hull has been replaced with the boards, the sturdy mainmast, and the sails have been completely renewed.

Some Japanese sailors were also recruited, especially several of them who were familiar with the sea routes to the Central Plains. After replenishing dry food and fresh water, this fleet of four ships set sail with the north wind today.

The sea route is dangerous, but only by sailing across the sea towards the southwest can you go home. With hope, he must move forward bravely no matter how difficult it is.

Even if it is a long thorny road, I will overcome all obstacles!

Looking at the endless sea, Yuwen Wen was very proud. The boat he was riding along with three other boats set off from Bota Port in the north wind and embarked on a journey across the Black Water Ocean again.

Later generations sent Tang envoys to the Central Plains, and the routes were divided into north and south roads. The north road was traveling north along the west coast of the Korean Peninsula, then west along the south coast of the Liaodong Peninsula, crossing the Bohai Bay to reach the Shandong Peninsula.

The South Road passes through the Goshima Islands in Kyushu, heading south along the Seed Island, Yakushima and Amami Islands in the south, crossing the sea to the northwest, and landing at the Yangtze River Estuary. This route has great risks, but it is also the only way home now.

If you want to be safe, you can only take the North Line. After returning to the Shandong Peninsula, you will most likely be "sent" to Yecheng by the local officials. God knows how long it will take to escape, so Yuwen Wen decided to take the risk.

Taking advantage of the north wind, it saves time and effort to move south, but even so, according to the Japanese sailors who have traveled this route, even if the road is smooth, it will take about 30 days to reach the estuary of the Yangtze River.

Of course, if the wind is a little stronger, the fleet might have arrived in Hangzhou Bay, but it doesn't matter. When it reaches the estuary of the Yangtze River, it will be considered a successful crossing of the sea, so Yuwen Wen couldn't help but feel unhappy.

"Mr. Lang! It seems like a boat is coming to us!"

Hearing Tian Yilong and others say this, he turned to starboard and headed northeast. He saw a boat coming towards them not too far away by the north wind. Yuwen Wen took out a thousand-mile mirror and looked at the bow of the boat, but saw someone shouting something at the bow of the boat.

One of the old men seemed to be Simada and others, while the person next to him seemed familiar, but he just couldn't remember where he had seen it. Yuwen Wen always felt something was wrong when he saw this situation.

"Duke, it seems that someone from Japan is going to approach the fleet. Should he wait? Maybe it is someone sent by Mr. Sima, it may not be said.

”

Manager Cui asked carefully. There was no need to cover up his name for Yuwen Wen. Seeing that Yuwen Wen had made any agreement with the Simada of Japan before, he was afraid that the ship in front of him would come for this matter.

"No need, stay away immediately!"

"Duke, I am worried..."

"Could it be that Manager Cui is nostalgic for this place?"

Seeing Yuwen Wen's smile and silly expression, Manager Cui quickly ordered the boss of the ship to direct the sailor Caofan. Anyway, he had fulfilled his obligation to remind him, and it would be up to the other party to listen to it or not.

"Empress, do you really not wait for a while?"

After patting Tian Yilong's shoulder, Yuwen Wen smiled and said, "No, I always think something is wrong. Don't wait anymore, so as not to happen. What if any Japanese official wants to invite me to visit the capital, do you think you will not go?"

Yuwen Wen felt that his previous crow's mouth could be fulfilled, so he was very cautious. Now he has set sail and is never allowed to be tied to anything. Seeing that the ship could no longer shorten the distance between the two sides, he made his followers shout in unison:
Chapter completed!
