The next day.
Early in the morning, Fengtian Hall was exceptionally lively.
It could be called an audience of nations.
Envoys from France, England, Persia, the Grand Duchy of Moscow, A San, and other countries had gathered there.
There were dozens of them.
Looking around, the appearances of these foreign envoys differed greatly from those of the Han Chinese of the Central Plains.
These envoys were almost all blond and blue-eyed, and without exception, heavily bearded.
Moreover, their clothing was vastly different as well.

"I never thought there were so many countries beneath heaven that our Ming Dynasty knew nothing about."
"These foreign envoys look like uncivilized people, with scraggly beards and no regard for appearance. They truly have no sense of decorum."
"Some of them even have red hair. The world truly is vast, and anything can exist within it."
"Today has truly broadened this official's horizons. It is my first time seeing so many foreign envoys."
"Hmph, these envoys must have come to our Ming Dynasty with ill intentions!"
"They cannot stand properly or sit properly. They truly are from barbarian lands!"
"Those eyes, that hair—they look just like demons!"
Clearly.
To Ming Dynasty officials, the arrival of so many foreign envoys naturally prompted some remarks.
Quite a few officials even looked upon these foreign envoys with disdain.
They were especially repulsed by these blond, blue-eyed people!
At this moment.
Zhu Yuanzhang, Zhu Biao, and Zhu Ying, three generations of grandfather, father, and son, slowly entered Fengtian Hall.
Seeing this, the Ming Dynasty civil and military officials naturally hurried to pay their respects.
At this moment.
Upon seeing this, the foreign envoys actually followed suit, imitating the Ming Dynasty officials
