Fortunately, there were a lot of things going on today, so the queen didn't have the heart to continue asking, so she put the matter down.

At the queen's order, a few cowards brought a map. Lama Wang, still holding the fly whisk, walked in square steps, following the map.

"Blessed Aloha Tianzun!" He bowed to the queen, bowed his hands to the ministers, pointed at the map, and introduced: "The Ming Dynasty is too far away, and the information collected often conflicts with each other. I tried my best to filter some and find

The craftsmen have processed the previous map to make it easier for everyone to understand the situation."

"I was ordered to assist Tuohuan Huang Taiji in writing the letter of credence, but due to various problems, it has not been completed so far. We have written the parts that can be confirmed so far in the draft. Please allow me to send it to everyone for a look."

The Queen nodded, and Lama Wang brought a stack of papers from his attendants and distributed them to everyone.

Guo Kang also got one, took a look at it, and found that there was more formal content than last time, but apart from the polite words, there was only some introduction to the Purple Horde Khanate's own trade situation.

"If you have any opinions, please ask them directly to the Patriarch," the Queen said.

"I have a question." Shi Ke also scanned the documents: "Has Master Wang thought about what language to use to write our national certificate?"

"I prefer to write in Chinese. At present, our draft is written in Chinese." Wang Dalai Lama said: "Chinese is the most familiar writing method for both countries. I think Chinese expresses opinions and is easier for the Ming Dynasty to understand.

It creates ambiguity. In addition, it can also show that we are close to them, which can naturally bring us closer to each other."

"I heard that the Seris dynasty does not like other countries with the same civilization. It is said that it is because the Seris people can only have one political power, and other political powers will be regarded as competitors." Timur Salai Wanhu

, George, a Georgian, asked: "If we show our Seris cultural identity, will it actually arouse the hostility of the Ming Dynasty?"

"That's not the case." Wang Da Lama waved his hand: "The Selis people's understanding of political power is different from ours. Their emperor is not just our Basileus. It should be Basileus plus the Pope, so

A position—perhaps higher than the Pope."

"Let's put it this way." He thought for a while and explained: "The most noble title of the emperor is not the emperor himself, but the 'Son of God'. What they are guarding against is mainly those who grab this title. If you don't grab it with them, it will be fine.

.”

"It sounds like the title of the Egyptian Pharaoh in ancient times." The great treasurer, the Greek Alexios Otriphos, commented: "It seems that the Persians also learned it?"

"This is true for centralized countries in the East. We in Rome later learned from the East and also developed in this direction. You should have learned this in history classes when you were in school." Bulgarian Peter Borjan, Minister of Water, said: "

Scholars believe that Seris is the most united, orderly and powerful of all Asian countries. Their monarch is also the most divine."

"It is true that no one in ordinary countries dares to claim to be the Son of God." Yesansarai Wanhu Tuotuobuhua said with a smile: "Not even the caliph of the Tianfang Sect dares."

"The legitimacy of the Umayyad dynasty and the Abbasid dynasty is questionable. They are just false theocracy." Borjan, who was a scholar, became more serious: "I have always believed that only the Seris civilization has

A truly perfect political and religious order.”

"The data shows that Seris does not have church organizations like ours or the Tianfang Religion world. But it is impossible for any civilization to completely give up its religious power. They do not have a church, which can only mean that the functions of the church are carried out by other organizations."

"I bought a lot of Eastern books from businessmen, and finally found out that this was because their government had completely annexed the church. Not only the central government, but also local governors also performed secular management work while performing the church's education and persuasion functions, and he even

There is no title of bishop, because people have already assumed that the local governor is the bishop. This is the ultimate expression of the unity of politics and religion."

He nodded and praised: "I haven't seen other civilizations fully achieve this - we ourselves are just a little bit behind it."

"You're going a bit far. Our topic is not about praising the Ming Dynasty." Otrifus reminded: "And I think the title Son of God is indeed too arrogant..."

"This is the most important part of the Patriarch's topic." Borjan asked logically: "Think about it, one king can accept another king; one Basileus can also accept another Basileus.

- as we did with Persia; but can one Son of God receive another Son of God?"

Otrifus was stunned.

"You think you are overstepping because in your belief, there can only be one Jesus, the Son of God. And for the Ming Dynasty, it happens to be the same." He concluded: "So, your concern is the best way to deal with this issue.

Answer: The Ming Dynasty cannot accept another 'Emperor'. This is not a question of political power, but a question of religious authority. This issue cannot be compromised."

"What about your suggestion?" Otrifus asked.

"My suggestion is not to worry about it." Borjan replied: "The conclusion is obvious: as long as our Basileus does not claim to be the son of God, there will be no problem of arousing their hostility. Therefore, there is no need to worry about the side effects of shortening the cultural distance.

"

After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

"This explanation is simple and clear, and I understand it." The Queen praised: "Do you have any other questions?"

"There will be one in the end." Tuotuo Buhua quickly asked: "I just heard what they said, now the Ming Dynasty, now the Ming Dynasty. How should we call them this time?"

"We are currently using their official translation name, which is directly called 'Dunta Ulusi', which means 'Middle Kingdom'." Lama Wang replied: "Tohuan Huangtaiji and I have also considered your question.

In the end, we felt that this topic was too complex and sensitive, so we might as well just avoid it."

"What do you mean?" asked Boris Kubrat, a Bulgarian who served as Minister of Military Region and is now also known as Minister of War.

"This is the issue of legitimacy - or, as Mr. Borjan just said, the issue of the sole divinity." Shi Ke explained: "In Seris, the positioning of this 'dynasty' is different. Generally speaking, the sole divinity is

Only a unified political power with divinity can be worthy of this title. This is an issue that all countries in the entire civilization circle are very concerned about."

"Whether the Ming Dynasty is one of the Seris countries or a unified dynasty has not yet been determined. They must call themselves so, but we still have to do business with the Javanese Yuan, so we don't want to offend them. So it's better not to

carry."
