I want to be a grandson

Chapter 298 Use Value

"We have been able to make great achievements! This is our duty! If you want to be greedy for merit, annoy the Ming Dynasty, and lead to the failure of the mission, it is your responsibility, Mr. Xiaosong!"

Xiaosong said persistently: "Only marrying the princess of the Ming Dynasty will be beneficial to His Majesty the King! And as long as we are willing to pay, there is nothing we cannot do!

There is an old Chinese saying that money can make ghosts turn millstones!Mr. Guishan, you know too little about the Han people! "

Kameyama retorted: "Our proposal to marry the princess is a marriage in the eyes of the Han people, which is very difficult for them to accept!

This is true no matter how hard we try!So I advise you not to act rashly, lest you fall short, and at that time, the gain will outweigh the loss! "

"For the king, I have to do it no matter how difficult it is! Only in this way can I be worthy of my inner loyalty!"

"Are you the only one who has loyalty! My loyalty is no less than yours!"

"Then you should agree with what I said! I am the right one!"

"It is precisely because of loyalty that I cannot agree! Don't forget that the responsibility of the deputy envoy is to avoid your mistakes!"

Xiao Song glanced at him, and said in a strange way: "It's true that you have loyalty, but to whom your loyalty is directed, you know in your heart!"

Kameyama stared at him and said, "Mr. Xiaosong, be careful what you say! Are you trying to stir up trouble!"

"It was you who started the incident! It was you who repeatedly refuted and dragged your feet. It's hard for people not to doubt your loyalty to the king!"

Kameyama said angrily: "I don't need to explain my loyalty to you, Mr. Komatsu! If you don't listen to dissuasion and insist on doing so, then I will immediately report to the king and ask the king to rule!"

"If you want to write a letter, just write it! I'm afraid you won't succeed! I am loyal to Japan! The king will definitely believe me! But you Kameyama-kun...

Hehehe, don't forget where you come from and whether you can be trusted! "

"You don't need Komatsu-kun to remind you!"

Guishan said angrily: "Then let's write letters separately! Farewell!"

After finishing speaking, he flicked his sleeves like the Han people, then turned around angrily and left.

"Your Highness, Your Highness Wanan!"

After lunch, Zhu Yunxi still rested for a while as usual, and when he got up, the eunuch reported that Qi Tai Tiexuan and others were asking to see him.

Zhu Yunxi summoned him in Wenhua Hall, and saluted everyone as soon as he met.

"Don't be too polite, just sit down, don't hurry back home to rest and take a bath, what are you doing here?"

Zhu Yunxi was not polite to them either, he went straight to the chair and sat down comfortably.

At this time, all those who got the news came. The civil servants included Qi Tai, Tie Xuan, and Bao Zhao, and the generals included Xu Huizu, Sheng Yong, and Geng Rui.

Qu Tao and the young man Zhang Fu stood behind them, guarding them at all times.

Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, but no one knew how to speak.

In the end, Tie Xuan couldn't bear it any longer, saluted and said, "Your Highness, what's your Highness's idea about the Japanese pirates asking to marry the princess?"

"Is that what you're here to ask?"

Seeing everyone's expectant eyes, Zhu Yunxi smiled and said: "Don't ask me, you have civil servants and generals, this matter involves the diplomatic relations between the two countries, and it also involves the proliferation of Japanese pirates in the coastal areas. I want to hear your opinion."

Tie Xuan said: "His Royal Highness, in my opinion, the Japanese pirates are simply wishful thinking! The princess has a noble status, how can he commit himself to the Japanese slaves!"

"As long as His Highness nods, this subordinate will lead people to deport these thieves! They are not allowed to set foot on the land of Ming Dynasty!"

Qi Tai said: "Your Highness, they must have malicious intentions when they ask to marry the princess, and in the opinion of the subordinates, they must not agree! This matter is about Daming's face, and there is no way to back down!"

Regarding marriage, some people say that it is the best way to maintain the relationship between ethnic groups in ancient times, strengthen the cognition of both parties, and avoid conflicts.

Of course, there is also the aspect of promoting cultural development and national integration.

Throughout Chinese history, the core can be described as a frequent occurrence.

According to historical records, as early as the time of King Zhou Xiang, that is, in the period of more than 600 BC, King Zhou Xiang wanted to crusade against Zheng, so he married Di Nu as his queen, and then joined forces with Di Rong to crusade against Zheng. country.

This is also the earliest marriage event in history.

Some cores are voluntary, some are forced to be helpless, some marriages are successful, and some have not achieved their goals.

But in any case, marriage is a very important means to deal with the relationship between the two parties, so it is used by the king.

Xu Huizu said: "Your Highness, it is a humiliating thing for the princess to marry outside. Now our Ming Dynasty is rich and powerful, with many soldiers and horses. Why be afraid of little Japanese pirates!"

Sheng Yong also said: "Yes, Your Highness, this subordinate also feels that the marriage is too aggrieved! The soldiers would rather fight the enemy on the battlefield than suffer such humiliation!"

Geng Rui nodded and said: "Your Highness, under normal circumstances, even if they want to marry, they will only ask for the princess, but now that they are asking for the princess, they must have evil intentions!"

Zhu Yunxi looked at Geng Rui, who was the husband of Jiangdu princess in history, and he was very upright, he would rather die than surrender to Zhu Di.

Such a loyal person, Princess Jiangdu would not feel wronged if she married him.

Just don't know if they still have fate in this world.

Bao Zhao agreed very much and said: "These Japanese pirates are thinking that after His Royal Highness ascends the throne in the future, they will confer the Princess Jiangdu as the eldest princess, and by that time Japan will be of the same generation as His Highness.

Then Daming and them are called suzerains, but they can sit on the same level in terms of etiquette and law. It can be seen that they have no intention of submitting at all. These thieves have really sinister intentions! "

After hearing what they said, Zhu Yunxi said noncommittally: "You all said that you can't marry the princess, but you don't know what the courtiers will talk about?"

Qi Tai said: "Your Highness, I think it's fine to reject the Japanese envoy directly, and just listen to the opinions of the courtiers, don't take it to heart at all!"

"Hehehe..."

Zhu Yunxi smiled and said: "Qi Tai, you have read the most books and are older, so you should know etiquette the most. Why are you so unreasonable and overbearing, and the courtiers don't listen to their opinions. You are much better than me."

"This subordinate is terrified, please forgive me, Your Highness."

At this time, Wang Zhong hurriedly entered the hall, walked up to Zhu Yunxi and saluted, saying, "See Your Highness!"

"How are things going?"

"It's been checked..."

Wang Zhong glanced at Zhu Yunxi, took a deep breath and said: "Your Highness, according to the investigation of the slaves, they came out of the Huitong Hall that day, wandered in the streets of the capital, and then ate and drank in restaurants."

"The Japanese pirates made Xiaosong discover that there was an extra piece of paper on his body. Someone urged them to marry the princess on it, and stated their interests to them. That's why they dared to act so boldly!"

"Good thief! Who is doing the trick?"

"There are such secrets!"

"What is the purpose of doing this! Who will stir up trouble in the middle!"

"If you let me know, I'll have to peel off his skin!"

Several people became angry in an instant, filled with indignation and righteous indignation.

If it's just the Japanese slave country acting recklessly and wishful thinking, then it's fine, but if someone instigates...

That is malicious!
Zhu Yunxi frowned slightly and reprimanded: "What are you arguing about! It's just that there are thieves instigating it, and it's not a big deal!"

Seeing that everyone was quiet and did not dare to make noise, Zhu Yunxi asked, "Can you find out who has been in contact with them?"

Wang Zhong said with a look of embarrassment: "Your Highness, there were a lot of people in the market that day, and it was very easy to put something on them. This...it's hard to check..."

"Oh, I see."

Zhu Yunxi didn't blame him, because he knew that it was really difficult to find out who was in contact with them.

If the other party does well, there is almost no possibility of finding out!

Even with so many cameras on the streets in later generations, those who are interested can still avoid them, let alone now.

Zhu Yunxi asked: "Who is that deputy envoy, and how did the investigation go?"

Wang Zhong replied: "Reporting to Your Highness, the name of the deputy envoy is Guishan. In October this year, Hou Guishan King of the Southern Dynasty returned to Kyoto, and performed a ceremony of surrendering the kingdom to Hou Xiaosong of the Northern Dynasty. He awarded the artifact and realized the unity of the two dynasties. The Muromachi shogunate became a unified government.

Zhengshi Xiaosong is the confidant of Hou Xiaosong's tribe in the Northern Dynasty, and Guishan, the deputy envoy, is the nephew of King Houguishan in the Southern Dynasty, because the north and the south have just been unified. "

"So the current political situation of the Japanese pirates is still unstable, so Komatsu will serve as the chief envoy and Kameyama will serve as the deputy envoy in this mission, in order to take into account the interests of both parties."

Wang Zhong continued: "When Xiaosong decided to marry the princess, Kameyama was against it, because once they married Daming successfully, more people would turn to Hou Xiaosong and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu. It is very detrimental to the Guishan faction..."

Xu Huizu suddenly realized: "No wonder the deputy envoy didn't seem very interested in the court today, so there is still such a secret!"

That is, in October of the 25th year of Hongwu, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu had just merged the Southern and Northern Dynasties.

And the means used are not only fighting, but also negotiating to share the cake!
Wang Zhong continued to report the information he had inquired and said: "Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is their general and the actual controller of the regime. In order to reach a settlement, he proposed three conditions.

The first is to hand over the three artifacts that symbolize imperial power from Hou Guishan to Hou Xiaosong. "

"Second, it is stipulated that from now on the Japanese pirates' throne will be inherited by Go Kameyama and Go Komatsu in turn, but Go Komatsu will be the first king."

Zhu Yunxie smiled contemptuously and said, "These are traps at first glance. After Komatsu secures the throne and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu actually controls the power, how could they be allowed to be kings!"

Qi Tai said: "The strength of the Southern Dynasty is not as good as that of the Northern Dynasty, plus Ashikaga Yoshimitsu is a talented general, and the conditions promised are very attractive, they will definitely be deceived!"

"Continue!" Zhu Yunxi said
