A kingly welcome, a kingly banquet, and naturally, kingly ladies to accompany you.
However, Lin Mo had just finished charging up and didn't have any plans in that regard for the time being.
Of course, the most crucial issue is that Zhao Wushi is pushing too hard.
So at the banquet, Lin Mo asked directly, "Shogun Tokugawa, is your Emperor very busy?"
Tokugawa Iemochi was stumped by the question, "Your Highness, Regent, my lord is indeed quite busy!"
"Oh? What are you all busy with?" Lin Mo asked.
Tokugawa Iemochi, "???"
What's going on here? Who asks questions like this? "Many things: national affairs, government affairs, demands from various regions, and..."
"Isn't this all part of a ruler's basic work?" Lin Mo said. "He's not so busy that he doesn't even have time to attend a banquet, is he?"
Tokugawa Iemochi immediately understood that Lin Mo wanted to see Emperor Ashikaga.
After a moment's thought, he said, "According to the etiquette of my Dongpango, when the Emperor receives distinguished guests, he must move to the main hall, where..."
He rattled off a long string of words, but Lin Mo caught the main point: he wanted to wait two days for Lin Mo to come and pay his respects!
"A court audience? I'll have a court audience with you, you son of a bitch!" Lin Mo thought to himself.
With that thought in mind, he spoke up, "Why isn't it your Emperor who comes to see me?"
Tokugawa Iemochi was completely flustered. "How am I supposed to answer this kind of question?"
Nonsense, your identity is the Regent of the Great Xia Dynasty, not the Emperor of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Even for emperors, the proper etiquette between rulers required them to meet at the Imperial Palace.
Why did my Emperor Dongpango come running here so eagerly, like a subject begging for an audience with the emperor?
After hesitating for a long time, Tokugawa Iemochi stammered, "This... isn't quite in accordance with the rules!"
"Rules? Rules are made by people!" Lin Mo said sternly. "Go tell your Emperor that I want to see him here, right now!"
"No..." Tokugawa Iemochi was on the verge of tears. "Your Highness, please don't make things difficult for me! What... what am I supposed to do?"
"Is it difficult to handle?" Lin Mo's expression changed. "Then let's not do it."
After saying that, Lin Mo immediately imitated Yao Yang and overturned the entire table.
In an instant, the food and wine on the table were spilled all over the floor with a loud crash.
Upon seeing this scene, the Dongpan Geisha, who was still performing songs and dances, was terrified.
Some even screamed.
"Your Highness..." Tokugawa Iemochi was also sweating profusely, but couldn't utter a word for a long time. "You..."
"Stop your nonsense!" Lin Mo shouted. "Get your Emperor here!"
"you..."
"Baka!"
"Shogun Tokugawa, this man is extremely rude!"
"Yes, please allow me to kill him!"
The Dongpango people certainly had reason to be angry.
We have fine wine and food, and more than a dozen lords have come to entertain you according to the etiquette of a king.
You're something else! Just because the Emperor isn't here, you think you can flip the table like that?
Where is the etiquette?
Where is my dignity, Dongpango?
Lin Mo, I won't talk to you about these things.
I hated the mundane life on Earth, so why would I treat you well in this world?
Besides, I don't have enough time.
Now, immediately, right now, I want to see your Emperor, so shut up.
As for what the lords of Dongpango said, although no one translated the last few sentences, Lin Mo understood them just from their expressions.
He gave a cold laugh, then looked at Xiang Yu and said, "Xiang Yu, you'd better handle this!"
Without wasting words, Xiang Yu immediately stood up and drew his sword from his waist.
In the blink of an eye, Qiong Xiangyu had already rushed to the side of a Dongpango general. Long sword in hand. Another Dongpango general tried to grab him, but he suddenly took a big step, jumped to the other side, and kicked over the Dongpango lord who had said he wanted to kill Lin Mo.
The man stepped back, but he couldn't possibly be as fast as Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu gripped his longsword and lunged at the man's face, hacking fiercely at that repulsive face.
"Whoosh!"
With a swift movement, the sword fell, cleanly severing the man's head.
Everyone was shocked to see this.
For a moment, the entire banquet was completely silent.
Much later, Tokugawa Iemochi finally realized what was happening and exclaimed, "Your Highness, what are you doing?!"
"What are you doing? Do you think I don't understand?" Lin Mo sneered. "This guy tried to kill me just now, didn't he?"
Tokugawa Iemochi was speechless for a moment. The dead man had indeed said, "Please allow me to kill him!"
However, it's not a real intention to kill.
Sometimes, some idiots just love to kill and slash.
"Since that's the case, then what I did was legitimate self-defense. Is there a problem?" Lin Mo said coldly.
Yes, it seems there's no problem! Tokugawa Iemochi felt his brain wasn't working properly.
"Oh, right, someone just called me a baka!" Lin Mo continued. "If you're so tough, don't do it behind my back. Come on, step forward and try calling me that to my face again!"
The room fell into a deathly silence upon hearing this.
No one would accept Lin Mo's actions.
However, no one dared to openly oppose it.
The Dongpango are just like Earth's Little Life, they're all Japanese pirates, like the Yordles.
As for Xiang Yu, he was eight feet tall and imposing.
At this moment, holding a long sword and standing there, coupled with the unparalleled killing intent bestowed by the system, who the hell would dare to step forward and court death?
"Since no one dares to admit it, then I, the king, will point it out myself." Lin Mo had no intention of letting them off the hook. He pointed randomly and shouted, "Was it you, you idiot?"
The person being pointed at was stunned. "Yame, yame dasai."
