v2.c14.t6.28

"I knew before that there was an emperor, but I had no means of communication. Recently there was a merchant, called P'u Lu-hsieh, whose ship arrived at the mouth of my river. I sent a man to invite him to my place and then he told me that he came from China. The people of my country were much delighted at this, and preparing a ship, asked this stranger to guide them to the court".
