The long-term life of drifting at sea was lackluster, and Yunze didn't like singing and dancing performances or other entertainments, so he used the time to make up for some common expressions and habits of the people in the Northland.Although separated by sea, the languages ​​of the two sides have many similarities, and they are easy to learn, but many customs are different.

Meinis and Yunze talked a lot, and there was one important point: the North Country is xenophobic, although the old powers are all xenophobic, and Taixi may also be xenophobic after a few generations, but the North Country is particularly xenophobic.

This can be seen from Beiguo's refusal of Taixi's goods to enter the Beiguo market at the beginning.

It is a pity that the old king who strongly refused before has died of the epidemic, and the epidemic has opened up the market in the Northland.Taixi has signed an agreement with Beiguo. For at least 20 years, as long as Taixi's national strength is not weak, Taixi's products can enter the Beiguo market in large quantities.

This is the best situation in a peaceful age. If the new king of the Northern Kingdom rises up and wants to tear up the contract, that's normal.Only at that time, there must be a war between the two countries.

Menis said so much, just hoping that Yunze would be mentally prepared. The people of the North Kingdom thanked his methods and medicine for controlling the epidemic in the North Kingdom and did not cause more losses. The current king will also thank the priests sent by Taixi for saving his life. his life.However, in the northern country, there must still be many people who hate Yunze.

I hate that he used cotton cloth to occupy the northern linen market, hated that he used expensive cosmetics to plunder the wealth of the northern country, and even hated him for saving the current king.

Yunze fully understands that national interests are stronger than personal preferences.Just like many foreign presidents, they were still pro-China before taking office, but once they took office, they would become anti-China. This was not decided by him, but his political stance determined that he had to do so.

Just like Yunze, he thinks that all common people have food to eat and clothes to wear, but his own position decides that he must give priority to the interests of his own country, followed by the common people of other countries.

The sea travel was fairly smooth, except for caravans, most of them encountered pirates.No, pirates and caravans can change their flags at any time, so it's hard to say how many are pirates.

I don't know what reputation he has among the pirates now, these pirate ships saw that his ship didn't hide at all, and even came up to say hello: "Is it His Royal Highness Taixi?"

Yunze also responded: "Hello."

"Next time you come to Black Shark Island, I'll buy you a drink!" shouted from afar.

"sure."

As for these two sentences of dialogue, they separated again.It's not that the friendship is so good, and they became friends after a meal of wine. It's just that these pirates are not rivals when they meet at sea, and the Taixi fleet doesn't want to have other twists and turns.The two parties currently have no conflict of interest, so they can live in peace and pretend to be friends.

"You said, is it possible for us to recruit these pirates? There are two more ports in Taixi, and His Majesty is vigorously developing the navy. Although the old pirates have bad habits, they have rich experience in sea battles. Get used to this thing, practice hard for two Years will be worn away." Yunze asked Menis.

"If it's a small pirate, maybe it's possible. Those who are powerful, it's not very likely."

As a result, after a month of wandering at sea, the ship sailed into the port of the Northland, and its huge size caused people to panic.Yunze had already changed his clothes, put on jewelry, put on a cloak, pushed away a little wrinkle on his body, and sat firmly on the chair.

Several long wooden planks joined together were lowered from the boat and pieced together into one piece. A wooden shelf was placed underneath, and ropes and pulleys were added to form a very convenient human elevator.A very luxurious carriage got off the boat, followed by some small carriages and horses. Although I arrived in the Northland, my son of Taixi still wanted to sit on my carriage. This was probably a kind of pride and self-willedness. People feel wrong.

Yunze also came down from the boat, with a white falcon in his left hand and a white lion king in his right, so Menis could only be squeezed to the back, and then they got into the carriage.Several carts of congratulatory gifts and his luggage followed, and there were two rows of soldiers on both sides, more than a hundred people, all wearing leather armor and holding bronze weapons, well-trained.

The ship was about to leave this port, so it's not good to be stuck here with such a big guy, plus good things are always eye-catching here, so they went back to a nearby small island that didn't belong to them and docked until they received Yunze's notice , Said that I can come to pick up people, so I will come again.

Taixi is a landlocked country with only one port, so the capital is in the middle.From Curry to the port, it will take two months by land.

The Northland is a maritime country, one-third of its territory faces the sea, and its navy is very developed and powerful.As for the capital, Syd, it is not far from the port, and it takes about ten days to arrive by horse-drawn carriage.

There are also people here who specially come to receive him, and they are very polite.After all, both are big countries, and it is not good to have conflicts. The status of the new king of the Northern Kingdom is not yet stable.

Yunze sat in a carriage and headed towards the capital of the Northern Kingdom.No matter how beautiful the carriage was, it would be uncomfortable without shock absorption. He simply lay on the back of the white lion, which made him feel much more comfortable.

Menis laughed at the side, only then did he feel that he was an adult who could take care of himself, and for a while he looked like a child who just left the house.

"There is spring wheat growing here." Yunze looked out through the flower window. On both sides of the road were golden wheat that had not been harvested, and occasionally cornfields were seen.

"It will take three to five years for the corn here to be planted." Menis said a conservative figure, in fact, ten to twenty years is also possible.

There is little arable land in Taixi, and the people mainly rely on grazing for a living, so it is necessary to quickly promote the cultivation of golden wheat, but the northern country does not have this kind of trouble. They face the sea, have a lot of fish, and there are many plains in the middle.Farmers will not easily change their planting habits and planting varieties until the end of the mountain.

After 'walking through the city' all the way, they entered a nearby city lord's mansion, stayed for a day and had to leave tomorrow.

Yunze got off the car, people in the distance were talking there, Falcon and Lion also followed, people in the distance were talking there again.

I am used to staying in Curry. Occasionally, when people find him on the street, they will laugh and make fun of him. There is no pressure. When I suddenly come to a foreign country, I feel that I am similar to a monkey.Fortunately, Menis and the raptors and beasts all over the place accompanied him to be watched as monkeys, so he could be more psychologically balanced.

In order to welcome him, the son of a foreign god, the lord of the city held a ball for him.

There is no difference between Taixi and Taixi, except that there are some differences in the appearance of the people, and there are also some differences in clothing and jewelry, but everything else is similar.Oh, by the way, the diet is also slightly different. It is not a matter of whether it is delicious or not, but that the diet is still at the level of large pieces of meat, large pieces of bread, and large glasses of wine, and has not become more refined.

"Besides Syd are all countryside. This is what people from the Northland say. Their capital cities are very different from other places. If you go to Syd, you may have food that suits His Royal Highness's appetite. In the past, Syd was famous for its exquisite food. There are so many famous ones.” Menis said with a smile, but this food city is now surpassed by Curry.

Yunze suddenly missed the fat pig on the boat that was still eating and drinking well, so he will kill it when he returns.

As the protagonist of the banquet, the place where Yun Ze was located was like a place under the spotlight, and many people were watching him secretly.They commented on Yunze's appearance and clothing, as well as his status and authority.

A few girls hid aside, praised him for his good-looking face, broad shoulders, and long legs, and talked about how to take him down. They probably thought Yunze didn't understand.

It's a pity that Yunze didn't give these girls a chance, and he left halfway.It is well known that God Son Taixi doesn't like banquets, there is no banquet that he can't skip.

The temporary room was cleaned by Amei and the maid, the bedding was changed, and so was the incense.

After floating on the sea for so long, he finally returned to land and slept. Yunze slept soundly. Although it was someone else's room, there was a familiar smell around him.Menis is next to him, that is, staying for one night, and the two of them can make ends meet.

On the second day, when Yunze opened his eyes, he saw the beautiful face and delicious chest muscles, but unfortunately the clothes were not open enough to see the scenery below: he must have eight-pack abs, right?

"Does Your Highness like it?" Meinis woke up early, but she didn't move because she was worried about waking Yunze up.

I don't know if it's a bit unfettered after being together for a long time, Yunze stretched his hand over, and followed the muscle texture... Then he was grabbed by Menis: "Your Highness, it's time to get up."

Yunze squinted his eyes and touched again, but he didn't stretch out his hands.

Menis: ...

The end result of trying to die early in the morning was to tidy up the sheets furtively and change into a pair of panties at the end.

It was Mines who tidied up the sheets, and Yunze thought about life while hugging a lion.After a while, Menis leaned over to kiss him, but he pushed him away: "It's so dirty, go and wash your mouth."

"Your Highness doesn't like it?"

Yunze's face turned as red as a tomato, he buried his face in the lion's fur, and was pushed away by the lion's paw in displeasure.

At noon, the group of them set off again for Syd, the capital of the Northland.

It is rare for Yunze to wake up late, but no one showed any unnecessary expressions. Although it is normal for nobles to go to bed late and get up late, but for Yunze, a good baby who always goes to bed early and wakes up early... well, finally he can completely Sure, he is surrounded by insiders.

The mountain is high and the emperor is far away, separated by a sea, the great priest can't come here to break Menis's leg, so he is very active in emotional adjustment along the way, always sleeping in the same room.

Most of the time, nothing happens.

After more than ten days of travel, the Taixi mission arrived in the northern country Syd, which is the most developed and advanced city in the northern country, and it has a completely different style from Curry.

Yunze thought that the houses in Curry were neat enough, and the inner city and the outer city were clearly separated.But it is so clear, at least there is a difference in size and height, but the streets of Syd, at a glance, are all similar houses with almost no difference.The dress of pedestrians on the street is also well-behaved, and what clothes should be worn by what class is determined to death.

In Curry, even a slave could wear a nice belt and dyed shoes, but not here.

There is another point that is completely different. People in Syd have similar looks, and there are no smiles on their faces, especially those who are well-dressed. Arrogance is written on their faces. Even if they smile occasionally, it is a professional standard fake smile.They were more polite to Yunze, with kindness in their eyes, but some of them were indifferent, but their faces were full of impeccable enthusiasm.

It's such a strange place. Wouldn't it be tiring to smile politely and be polite even to people you don't like?

Probably Taixi is used to being treated, and Curry is used to being treated, so Yunze feels uncomfortable here.

Taixi people are the result of mixed races of multiple races. You can see many types of faces in Curry, but the face of Beiguo has a specific fixed frame, which makes people feel that this is Beiguo people and this is not.

In fact, Taixi's reputation is not good, the people are martial arts, the royal family is brutal, barbaric, untraditional, and the law is strict (strict to the nobles)... But for his own family, Yunze thinks that everything is good.

Yunze thought that he would live in the post station, there is a special place in Curry for foreign envoys to live, it makes no sense that Syd does not.Sid had it, but Yunze lived in the royal city, and later he discovered that envoys from some nearby countries were also in the royal city.

"Is it also like this in the past?" Yunze asked Menis.

"There is no precedent. I wonder what the new king of the northern kingdom thinks about allowing foreign missions to live in the king's city. He is very confident in his own defense?" Menis also felt strange.

The royal city of the Northern Kingdom is different from Taixi's.The royal city of Taixi is built on the mountain, like a laurel crown.Wang Chengxiu of the Northern Kingdom is located in the center of a huge lake, which is an island in the middle of the lake, like a pearl in the water.

There are no bridges or roads between the outside and the island in the middle of the lake, so they can only travel by boat. Yunze took people on a large boat with a carriage and was transported to the opposite side.His soldiers came in five batches. They entered a side hall through a small door on one side. This side hall was not connected to the main hall, so they had to go around in circles.

"This side hall seems to be the residence of a certain prince. The old king of the Northern Kingdom had many women and gave birth to many children. After the new king took office, all the concubines in the harem who had not given birth were kicked out, and those who had given birth were stuffed into a small palace. In the palace. And in the royal city, except for the princess and prince with good relations, everyone else was also driven to their own city."

Sid also had a spy sent by Taixi, and it only took half a morning for Menis to find out who owned the small palace they lived in before.

"Your Highness, do you still remember the Seventh Prince of the Northern Kingdom who came to Curry as an envoy? This place turned out to be his palace."

Yunze and Menis walked around this remote small palace, it was not a big place, not even one-tenth the size of Yunze other courtyard.

Almost everything inside has been cleaned, they just found a lot of bookshelves in a place similar to a study room, with traces of mud tablets stored on them.

"Is this still a studious prince?"
