Chapter 698 The greatest honor

Chapter 698 The greatest honor
According to the usual rules, the Japanese mission should be placed in the Huitong South Pavilion like Ryukyu, North Korea and other countries, but this time Qin Dewei changed the rules and placed the Japanese mission in the North Pavilion.

Not only because it's close to his office, but also because it's a little bit of a prestige, after all, according to the usual practice, the North Hall houses real barbarians like straight women.

It is not surprising that both the principal and deputy envoys of the Japanese mission are monks. Since the early years of the Japanese dynasty, Japan has had the habit of using cultural monks as tribute envoys.

Among them, the chief envoy is called Huxin Shuoding, and the deputy envoy is Ce Yan Zhou Liang.

Qin Dewei also intends to focus his main attention on the Deputy Envoy Ceyan Zhou Liang, who also has a certain status in history.

According to the original time and space history, the monk Ceyan Zhouliang will come to the Ming Dynasty again in ten years' time as an envoy. This is also the last time that Japan will pay tribute to the mainland China.

It is said that after returning to Japan, the monk Tserhiko Zhouliang became famous, and he was the guest of Takeda Shingen, Oda Nobunaga and others.

After all, Qin Zhongtang's principle has always been to deal with historical celebrities as much as possible.Generally, famous historical figures are outstanding for a while, and they are relatively able to keep up with their own thinking.

Hearing that the Japanese mission had settled down, Qin Dewei went to the Huitong North Pavilion on behalf of the imperial court to comfort him and make preliminary contacts.

There is a hole in the Japanese Pavilion of the Yiwu Yamen, called Chenchen, who reported to Qin Zhongtang on the road:

"Although the Japanese envoys have general knowledge, but in order to prevent misunderstandings that the words do not convey the meaning, the Japanese envoys prefer to talk in writing. Those generations have all learned Chinese dictionaries and can also compose poems, but they can write but not speak. "

Qin Dewei said casually: "If you really want to talk about it, I actually know a few words of Japanese."

Ling Kongmu immediately patted his horse and said: "Zhongtang really has extensive knowledge, which is rare in the world!"

Hearing that the court officials had arrived, two monks, the chief and deputy envoys of the Japanese mission, rushed out to welcome them.

All I saw was a heroic young adult, dressed in a vermilion official robe that symbolized his status, walking over with his head held high.

Qin Dewei warmly greeted the Japanese envoys and deputy envoys: "Smi Masai!"

The two of them couldn't understand, so they both went to see the translator who was in charge of the translation, but the translator was also confused at the moment, what exactly did your lord say?

Qin Dewei sighed regretfully, it seems that the Japanese words after 500 years are not applicable today.

The few Japanese words I learned in my previous life are completely useless, and I don't even have to say "Baga".

After glancing at the clothes of the two monks, the chief and deputy envoys, Qin Zhongtang subconsciously said, "It's different from the painting style in the Glory game."

The two monks and envoys still couldn't understand, and looked at Tongshi again, but Tongshi was still confused. This sentence seemed to be half-understood, how should I translate it?

No one in the room dared to criticize Qin Dewei, so there was a weird silence.

Facing this young man with a strong aura and completely unreasonable, the two monks and envoys were a little at a loss.

Qin Dewei laughed "haha", and said to himself, "I heard that the tribute envoy is also a man of learning, with a refined manner, why don't you greet me?"

This sentence could finally be translated, Tong Shi wiped the sweat from his forehead, and hurriedly said something to the two envoys.

The two envoys stepped forward to salute, Qin Dewei waved his hands and said, "No need to be too polite, just go in and talk!"

After being seated, I exchanged a few pleasantries, asked about the itinerary, and then entered the social practice of flattering.

Sure enough, as Qin Dewei expected, the other party was actually dominated by the deputy envoy Ce Yan Zhou Liang.

Monk Zhou Liang asked Tong Shi to translate and said: "This time I came across the sea and set foot in a big country, and I heard that Qin Xueshi is the current Chinese poet."

Qin Dewei waved to his entourage, Ling Kongmu, and said: "It just so happens that I also have a meeting gift for the occasion, and I will give it to you all!"

Immediately Ling Kongmu brought in a stack of books from the outside and put them on the case again, only to see the title of the book printed on the cover was "The Twenty-year-old Collection of Qin Xueshi".

Ce Yan Zhou Liang: "."

Although he can't speak Chinese, he is indeed proficient in Chinese characters, so he can naturally understand what books are.

I have never seen such a gift-giving person in my life!

Qin Dewei pointed to the book and said, "It was just published a few days ago. It's a coincidence that you all came here, so you can have a sneak peek."

What else could Monk Zhou Liang do, he could only accept the gift, and then asked Tong Shi to translate and said: "I implore Bachelor Qin to leave the calligraphy."

Qin Dewei didn't refuse either, and wrote four big characters: "Watch the sea and listen to the waves".

The polite greetings and cultural exchanges came to an end. Qin Dewei waved his hand and ordered: "The rest of the irrelevant people will step down for now, and I will have a written discussion with the envoy alone."

This is an important and confidential topic to be discussed. Of course, the fewer people present, the better.

Then Monk Zhou Liang picked up a pen and wrote a whole page of text in one go, and presented it to Qin Zhongtang.

The old god Qin Dewei glanced at it for a few times, and it was all commonplace things, explaining the meaning of Japan's obedience in order to pay tribute, and begged to change the ten-year tribute to three years.

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang sat up straight and stared closely at Qin Zhongtang, but saw that the other party did not answer with a pen, but instead took out a manuscript from his sleeve and handed it over.

Then Monk Zhou Liang opened the manuscript and read it, and saw that it said: "The nature of Japanese slaves is more greedy and greedy. The wolf is ambitious and plunders its nature! From Tang Dynasty to modern times, it has become Chinese mange."

After reading it, Ce Yan and Zhou Liang's face was not very good-looking, and he asked Qin Zhongtang with his eyes, isn't it a courtesy to welcome guests by cursing people face to face?
Qin Dewei picked up a pen and wrote a few words to indicate: "This is an excerpt from my memorial to the minister."

Then Qin Dewei took out another manuscript and handed it to Monk Zhou Liang.

The manuscript reads: "Japan's rebellion is not common, and it is clever to use cunning. The holy plan is well controlled, but it can't keep it from being disturbed by others. There is no one else. The other's cunning is difficult to control, and this method can't do it.

Because of treacherous treachery, he used a boat to carry his own things and military equipment, and spied on me when he was haunted by the sea. "

Ce Yan Zhou Liang's face was flushed with anger, and he wrote quickly: "The people of our country are poor and rich, gentle and evil! I have studied Chinese poetry and books for a long time, and I value honesty and know shame. It's not like the northern captives and barbarians in general!
How dare we pass on the orders of a small country, see the glory of a big country, and listen to politics, religion, and scenery? How dare we have him? "

Qin Dewei calmly wrote and responded: "I heard that in recent years in Japan, there has been a mad monk Ruixi Zhoufeng who claimed that Japan is the kingdom of God, and wants to go to my Ming Dynasty to be crowned king. Obedient and deceitful and paying tribute?

Is it written by this person?In the meantime, there are words of the Great Japanese Divine Kingdom, and the words of the Eastern Emperor and the Western Emperor. What is the reason? "

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang were stunned for a moment. The two countries are separated by vast oceans, and the news is very unclear. How did the other party know about this trend of thought?

Ruixi Zhoufeng was also an eminent monk, a senior advisor to previous generations of generals, but he passed away decades ago, how did the other party pull out Ruixi Zhoufeng's words and deeds?

When he saw this young high-ranking official of Ming Dynasty who had been out of shape just now, he felt contemptuous.

But after seeing the few words just now, it was like pouring ice water on him. This young senior official is definitely not a superficial and ignorant person!
People who can be sent as envoys in Japan must also be knowledgeable and kind, otherwise there is no way to communicate with the cultural elites of Ming Dynasty.

Monk Zhou Liang stabilized his mind and quickly wrote: "My country admires Zhonghua, and its efficiency is higher than that of Korea and Ryukyu!
However, in recent years, the subjects of the Ming Dynasty accused our king's envoys and others of calling the barbarians Japanese slaves, and some people couldn't bear it for a while, and pretended to be angry! "

After reading these few sentences, Qin Dewei was speechless for a long time. Does this mean that the friendship between China and Japan depends on North Korea?
These few sentences roughly mean that Japan is obviously more cultured than North Korea, but you Daming always call us barbarians and Japanese slaves, and treat North Korea as a small Chinese, so there are angry youths who are dissatisfied!

Qin Zhongtang couldn't help laughing, this monk Zhou Liang is also a quick-witted person, but regarding what he wrote, as a time traveler, he can only say, trust you ghost!

Then Qin Dewei no longer entangled with this, took up a pen and wrote: "My heavenly dynasty has everything, so I didn't need the tribute from Erguo.

However, the country of Er urgently needs my Ming Dynasty copper coins, raw silk, porcelain, books, medicinal materials and other things. The ancestors promised to pay tribute, but they only guided the king of Er to restrain and eliminate the Japanese pirates.

Now Erguo is completely at a loss, Japanese pirates are still haunting the East China Sea, what is the use of paying tribute to our Celestial Dynasty? "

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang responded with a pen: "Didn't you hear that the great powers have been paying tribute to our country for more than ten years, and there are more pirates? Paying tribute will definitely reduce the number of pirates."

Qin Dewei suddenly sneered a few times, and asked with a pen, "Who sent you here? The guardian daimyo Ouchi or the shogun Genji?"

Seeing this sentence, Monk Zhou Liang's expression changed again.

This sentence itself is not difficult to answer, but the information revealed in it shocked him very much.Being able to write such a sentence shows that the other party is very familiar with the domestic situation in Japan.

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang forced himself to calm down, wrote and replied: "Naturally, I came here for my king's letter."

This sentence can be regarded as watertight. The person who nominally rules Japan no matter what he calls himself a general or something, but here in Ming Dynasty he can only be called the "King of Japan".

Because this is the title conferred by the Ming emperor, and he gave the king a golden seal, establishing a nominal vassal relationship.

Qin Dewei wrote with a smile: "Why don't you dare to answer directly? Monk Zhou Liang, you were selected by the Da Nei family, right?

Based on the poverty and embarrassment of the shogun's order not to stay in the city, holding the golden seal for nothing, I am afraid that he has no money and is unable to organize sailing, so he can only borrow the king's golden seal and use it with the powerful minister Ouchi who controls Kanhe! "

Seeing these few lines, Ce Yan and Zhou Liang suddenly started sweating profusely in the early spring of the Northern Kingdom. He never expected that this young boss knew the national conditions of Japan like the back of his hand!
Since the Onin Rebellion decades ago, the prestige of the shogun has been discredited. Now it is the era of warring states, and the shogun has long been an empty ruler.

Now the tribute from the Ming Dynasty is in the hands of the Da Nei family, and the general has no money to invest in organizing the voyage, so only the Da Nei family can organize a sailing team to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty.

Qin Dewei continued to write: "I said that paying tribute can reduce Japanese pirates at sea, but as far as I know, the pirates are mostly people from the three prefectures of Satsuma, Higo, and Nagato in Erguo!
These places are not the territory of the Ouchi clan, and if they pay tribute to the Ouchi clan, how can they calm down the Japanese plague?Then why does my emperor need to pay tribute? "

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang stared straight, sat motionless, and did not know how to answer.

If the Ouchi family has anything, it is silver. The mining and smelting technology of Iwami Yinshan has matured.

But if you directly give you Daming silver, it will sound like humiliating the heaven and the kingdom. For Daming, which has a vast land and abundant resources, silver cannot be eaten or worn.

What made Monk Zhou Liang feel even more frightening was that in the eyes of the other party, Japan seemed to be a person who took off his clothes and had no secrets. How can this be said?
Qin Dewei waited for a while, and seeing that Monk Zhou Liang had fallen into deep self-doubt, he wrote again: "Don't say a tribute every three years, even a tribute every year is not impossible."

When these words came into view, Monk Zhou Liang immediately came to his senses. If one tribute every ten years becomes one tribute every year, that would be a great thing that one would never dare to think about!
It's just that Ce Yan and Zhou Liang are not sure, is this a surprise, or a trap?
Qin Dewei wrote again: "The Da Nei family can also accept the canonization of my Emperor Ming. From then on, they are also subjects of the Ming Dynasty, and it is only natural that they receive special preferential treatment."

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang were speechless. He would never dare to answer this proposal, and he could not answer it at all.

Qin Dewei continued to write: "After you returned to China, Hao Sheng and the Da Nei family said that if it can be done, I, Da Ming, will not treat you badly.

There is a saying in North Korea that it is the greatest honor to be Daming's dog, let's encourage each other! "

Monk Zhou Liang pondered for a long time, and wrote a response: "I don't know how many vassal clans there are in the Ming Dynasty, but is there still a Da Nei clan missing? If you have other conditions, please put them forward together."

Qin Dewei listed some eloquently: "In the future, Da Ming will be allowed to set up an embassy in the territory of the Da Nei clan and send troops to garrison it.

The people of Daming can ship goods to the Da Nei clan without stopping them or imposing additional taxes. "

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang immediately wrote: "Da Ming does not allow the people of our country to go ashore to do business at will, so why do you not want to impose on others?"

Are countries at different levels eligible to talk about equivalence?Qin Dewei didn't bother to explain, and continued to write his own conditions: "If the citizens of Daming commit crimes in the territory of the Danei clan, they will be dealt with by the embassy."

Qin Zhongtang wrote many conditions, but the most critical ones are probably the above ones, which are actually to lure him with profit.

Anyway, it doesn't take much trouble, if you don't try it, you don't try it, and people in this era don't have much sense of modern sovereignty.

On the contrary, if we can open the channel of normalized trade with Ming Dynasty, it will be a huge temptation for all Japanese people, just like the rain after a long drought.

Ce Yan and Zhou Liang asked another question inexplicably: "How many people are like your lord in the court of Shangbang?"

Qin Dewei showed a standard smile, and answered with a pen: "I'm just talking about the appearance of a man of talent and learning, but because of his outstanding looks, tall stature, and loud voice, he was sent to receive barbarians."

Ce Yan Zhou Liang: "."

This time the tribute envoy is really difficult. If a small country wants to take advantage of a big country, all they can use is poor information.

A country like the Ming Dynasty, which claims to be a celestial state, is too lazy to understand the national conditions of small countries, so small countries can often play tricks and get more benefits.

However, Japan's only advantage in this point was completely wiped out by Mr. Qin, and even the information difference between the two sides was reversed.

At the end of the first negotiation, when Qin Dewei stepped out of the hall, he told Kong Muchen: "If an envoy is arranged to have an audience with the emperor, only the principal and deputy envoys are allowed to go, and none of the others are allowed."

Then Qin Dewei ordered again: "The country of Japan has been torn apart at this time, the mission has more than [-] people this time, and there must be many people from other families among them, and they may not be on the same page with the Ouchi family.

If you stay in the Huitong Hall more often, there must be other people who want to contact you, and you must write them down first, especially pay attention to whether there are any hidden clues sent by the King of Japan.

When their principal and deputy envoys go to meet the emperor, I will come to meet others again. If the benefits can be given to Da Nei, naturally they can also be given to others!
It is the greatest honor to be Daming's dog, there will always be someone willing to do it! "

 I gradually saw the dawn of 2000 average subscriptions. Thinking about the start with only [-] due to underexposure, with your support, it was not easy to rely on quality to pull up the score.Book friends who haven't fully subscribed can make up a full subscription, don't you want to participate in the miracle of a vigorous counterattack?
