Chapter 108: Trying to Scam Money from Me Again?! (1 / 2)
The old emperor was preparing to leave Shanhai Pass the next day.
At that moment, a document was sent over from the Prime Minister’s office for his instructions.
“Wokou Country requests to return home this time via the Shandong Dengzhou tribute route instead of Ningbo, and to travel alongside the Goryeo envoys.”
This didn’t seem to be a problem.
After some thought, the old emperor waved his brush— Approved!
Further down, there was a handwritten letter from Wokou Country’s envoy, written in Chinese characters.
The old emperor lazily raised his eyebrows and read it slowly.
The letter contained around 3,000 characters, praising China’s vast and abundant land and resources, the exceptional governance of the Da Xia dynasty, and how the people lived in peace and prosperity. It also expressed great respect for the emperor.
Then, in another 3,000 characters, it detailed Wokou Country’s dire poverty and harsh conditions. They couldn’t even afford meat. Even their shogun only ate one bowl of rice, a miso soup, and a piece of pickled radish per meal.
