The one week that was left until the arrival of the Ming envoy passed like a breeze.
Before anyone was fully prepared mentally, the first day of June arrived.
That day, the sun shone brightly against the deep blue sky. A gentle breeze was blowing, making the weather perfect for sailing.
Since early morning, the Han river's surface was already unrecognizable. A large number of boats, of all shapes and sizes, covered the surface of the river.
Some of them had tall bodies, with large crimson battened veils. Their entire surface was covered with lush decorations, which consisted of a multitude of paper lanterns and colorful ribbons. As these boats glided along the river water, they looked like majestuous koi fish.
