There are significant differences between official history and fictional accounts, such as the case of Zhuge Liang.

Zhuge Liang was an outstanding statesman and military strategist, a capable minister who excelled in domestic affairs, diplomacy, and the rule of law, and was the strategic planner of Liu Bei's group.

In official history, the burning of Bowangpo was actually done by Liu Bei, while the Empty City Stratagem was apparently sung by Sun Jian.

Many of the fictional elements in the novel are actually created to attract readers.

Regardless of the circumstances, Zhuge Liang was an outstanding talent and a figure who created a glorious chapter in Chinese history.

Since that's the case, Xu San thought that this unknown creature, who was supposed to be Queen Himiko, must know something about Zhuge Liang.

Um.
That's what Xu San was thinking; he wasn't considering much else at that moment.

His idea was to just muddle through for now.

As expected, the Queen was not easily fooled and seemed not to recognize Zhuge Liang.

There are also a lot of questions about the signal that Huanji is conveying.

Xu San scratched his head and began to recall the Records of the Three Kingdoms.

He read the Records of the Three Kingdoms after listening to lectures on the Hundred Schools Forum.

Because he liked this period of history, he read it very carefully, and if he thought about it carefully, he could still recall some of the details.

According to the Records of the Three Kingdoms, Book of Wei, Biography of the Wa People, the whole process is as follows: In the third year of Jingchu of Emperor Ming of Wei, Queen Himiko of Yamatai sent a delegation composed of officials Nan Shengmi and Dushi Niu Li, carrying tributes such as livestock, slaves, and patchwork cloth. After many hardships, they arrived at Luoyang, the capital of Cao Wei.

Emperor Ming of Wei was very pleased that the distant island nation had come to pay tribute and responded with the highest honors.

He also issued an extremely generous edict, the main contents of which are as follows.
Xu San couldn't remember, but he knew that the investiture document was issued at that time.

Thinking of this, he looked at Huan Ji, "A close confidante of the King of Wei?"

This time, Huanji nodded gently, "She said yes!"

"Snapped!"

Xu San slapped his thigh, "Haha, I guessed right!"

After saying that, he scratched his head again, "It's not a guess, it's a deduction based on historical records." "Is it the Records of the Three Kingdoms?" This time it was Huanji herself who asked.

"Yes, Chen Shou's Records of the Three Kingdoms is quite difficult to read." Xu San said honestly. If he weren't particularly interested in that period of history, he wouldn't have bothered to read such a dry historical book.

To be honest, the Records of the Three Kingdoms is just a diary entry; if it weren't for the Romance of the Three Kingdoms to compare it to, you would definitely fall asleep within five minutes of reading it.

Perhaps because of confirming this information, some of Xu San's memories began to resurface.

Based on these memories, Xu San translated them directly into vernacular Chinese.

The pro-Wei Wa King!

After the investiture, he was granted a gold seal and a purple ribbon.

“Honor, she said that is honor!” Huanji said. “This time I can feel what she meant.”

"Heh~" Xu San chuckled dryly, sighing that a great nation with five thousand years of heritage had fallen to such a state, being bullied like this by the Japanese from the island nation!

but
It's alright. In a few decades, China will rise again and stand at the top of the world once more.

"What did the emperor of Great Wei give you back then?" This question was, of course, directed at Himiko.

There seems to be some record of it in the Records of the Three Kingdoms, but he really can't remember it.

Although he couldn't remember, Xu San's intuition told him that among these rewards, there must be something that was the key to solving this incident.

Princess Genki did not answer immediately, but closed her eyes, seemingly communicating with Himiko.

Xu San didn't disturb them, but picked up the box from the ground again and began to examine it carefully.

However, no matter how Xu San looked at it, he couldn't tell that the box was from 1,800 years ago.

After the investiture, Emperor Ming of Wei dispatched Jianzhong Colonel Ti Jun and others to formally escort the Japanese envoys back to their country with the imperial edict, seals, and rewards.

Himiko might know this person, Ti Jun. (End of Chapter)
