Great Ming: I, Zhu Di, Declare My Intentions to Seize the Throne from the Start!

Japanese powder keg?

Zhu Di paced, wondering whether to intervene now. ♙♦

Mao Xiang's evaluation of this Japanese powder keg is very accurate.

After the fall of the Kamakura shogunate during the Yuan Dynasty, the war in Japan never subsided.

With his support, the Ohno Goro Group entered the Japanese period, which happened to be a critical period for the merger of the Southern and Northern Dynasties of Japan.

The puppet of the Japanese Emperor Gokomatsu had just accepted the artifact presented by the Japanese Emperor of the Southern Dynasties.

But because of the Goro Ono group's rapid rise in Kagoshima with his support, the feudal lords of the Northern and Southern Dynasties of Japan were just calmed down.

The fighting started again.

Now, these princes of the Japanese country hate the Ohno Goro group.

He even directly killed the entire Japanese Emperor family in order to rally people's hearts and fight against the Ohno Goro Group.

This is quite understandable.

The Ohno Goro Group copied two of his ideas.

These two propositions are very attractive to ordinary people.

At least, according to the reports of the Military Intelligence Department over the years, this is the situation. Under the rule of the Japanese princes, because of the two ideas and two propositions put forward by the Ono Goro Group, common people rebelled frequently.

After all, due to his intervention, the situation in Japan has been very bad in recent years.

In a small land with a population of three million, they killed each other in a genocidal vendetta, and died of hunger and disease during the war. A total of more than one million people died!

He was not surprised at all by this casualty figure.

The Sui Dynasty had a population of 60 million.

But by the early Tang Dynasty, history books recorded that there were only 15 million people left.

Eliminate the hidden and dependent gentry population.

During the wars at the end of the Sui Dynasty and the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, at least 30 million people in the Central Plains disappeared.

The Ono Goro Group learned from their Yan Fan's two ideas and two ideas, which were too confusing to people's hearts.

The Japanese princes were helpless and unable to unite people's hearts and eradicate the Ohno Goro group.

As for the Japanese emperor, he was a puppet most of the time.

But this puppet has a high status and influence in the hearts of the people.

By killing the entire Japanese Emperor family and blaming the Ohno Goro Group to unite the hearts of the people, I have to say that this is a very good way.

Those who share the same desires will win!

The princes of the Japanese country obviously understood this truth.

The advantage of doing this is not only to unite people's hearts, but without the Japanese emperor, we only need to eradicate Ohno Goro.

From now on, the princes of the Japanese country will compete for hegemony, and the winner will no longer have to hold the Japanese emperor to order the princes.

You can call yourself a loner.

This move of Juewanshiyiyi can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

Of course, this matter is also very beneficial to him.

Since then, the inheritance of the Japanese emperor's entire family has been cut off, which saves him the trouble of how to solve this eternal lineage after his troops invade the Japanese island.

Of course, it cannot be said by Kobayakawa Nakaye alone as to who killed the entire Japanese Emperor family and cut off the Wanshi lineage.

He didn't care who killed the entire Japanese emperor family.

But he must consider whether to invade Japan now.

Now that the troops are entering the Japanese country, they have to face the coalition forces who are united in the revenge mentality of the Japanese emperor.

Although, he believed that the outcome of the war would definitely end with Yan Fan's victory.

But he couldn't help but consider the injuries to the soldiers.

Now that the troops are entering the Japanese country, they have to face a coalition of princes who are instigated by a group of princes who do not know the truth and want to avenge the Japanese emperor.

Even if they break into the territory of the princes, they will be harassed by guerrillas from ordinary people.

Since the establishment of the plan to annex the Japanese country and thoroughly discover the Japanese lineage, he has never underestimated the Wansi clan. Many times, he has been regarded as a puppet.

If this series of eternal life is insignificant.

In the long history of the Japanese country, it was destroyed by other princes long ago.

Several generations of different shogunates did not dare to destroy the Wansi clan. One can imagine the influence of the Wansi clan in the hearts of the Japanese people.

There were two places in Asia that made him very uncomfortable.

A Japanese island.

The other, that is, the subcontinental region with its strict caste hierarchy.

These two places are very troublesome.

If it is not handled well, even if it is defeated and occupied, it will become an abscess growing on Yan Fan's body and constantly corroding Yan Fan's healthy body.

In the end, the Yan Fan regime will definitely be brought down.

…

Seeing Zhu Di pacing in silence for a long time, Lan Yu couldn't help but curiously asked: "Why is the prince hesitating? This is a sacrifice of land and people!"

Zhu Di smiled bitterly and shook his head, and immediately expressed his concerns.

"First of all, I have to think about the soldiers. The ordinary soldiers of the current princes' coalition are red-eyed because the entire Japanese emperor's family was killed. Not only the ordinary soldiers, I am afraid that the people under the princes' coalition are also the same. Even, I suspect, Ohno Even under the rule of the Wulang Group, the government is unstable. Mr. Liang Guogong, you don’t know the status of the Japanese Wansi lineage in the hearts of the Japanese people."

"Once we stand together with the Ono Goro Group, we will not only have to withstand military pressure, but more likely, we will withstand guerrilla attacks from people from all directions on the land of Japan."

No one knows better than him the power of people's war.

Frontal combat, cooperating with guerrilla warfare.

Even if Yan Fan won the final victory, he would still feel uncomfortable.

‘How powerful are the people’s guerrilla attacks? ’

Lan Yu was slightly stunned and looked at Zhu Di with a solemn expression in astonishment.

Of course he knew what Zhu Laosi was capable of.

But now, Zhu Laosi is actually afraid of the common people's guerrilla attacks? Is this style of play really so powerful?

Zhu Di didn't know that Lan Yu looked down upon the people's war so much, and continued: "In addition, our Yanfan army is a thoughtful and ideal army. Once we enter the Japanese territory and are attacked by the Japanese people, the soldiers will Their thoughts will be shaken, they will question their ideals and beliefs, and the belief that we have been promoting to benefit all people in the world."

The army's faith is shaken, it's terrible.

It will make a strong army quickly become incompetent.

The long-term damage to Yan Fan far outweighs the gains from the Japanese country.

As a superior, he can act.

Just like treating Japan.

He is not engaged in any welfare undertaking at all.

It means to poke out its roots and kill its seeds.

But he has always had to dress this up as a just cause.

Even the members of the Military Intelligence Department who were engaged in intelligence in Japan thought that he was really supporting Ohno Goro and others to benefit the people of Japan.

Although, an army armed with ideas and lofty ideals.

There are restrictions on the expansion of territory by those in power, and they cannot do whatever they want.

But in his opinion, this is not a bad thing.

Soldiers are a major event for the country.

Throughout the ages, all military operations must have an excuse and a flag.

Even if it shows hypocrisy, such a flag must be set up.

After all, ordinary soldiers, even ordinary soldiers who are not armed with lofty ideas, have the compassion for the weak that ordinary people have.

If you don’t have one, create a banner of justice.

During the killing, any ordinary soldier will feel sympathy for the weak.

Especially the people of the Central Plains have been deeply affected by thousands of years of moral education and ethical education, even those who are illiterate.

He also served as an ordinary warrior.

He can understand the simplicity that lies deep in the hearts of ordinary soldiers.

"Of course, it is not without benefits to intervene in the war in the Japanese country at this time. First of all, it is a good thing for us to wipe out the Wanshi clan. Secondly, if we help the Ohno Goro Group to unify the entire Japanese country and take over the whole country from the Ohno Goro Group, By devoting land and people to the country, we have an unshakable legitimate reason for Yan Fan to rule the Japanese country. At the same time, donating land and people can also push the culture and civilization of our Yan Fan to a very high level in a short period of time. The height is conducive to forming a civilization and cultural center with Yan Fan as the center across the four seas."

As he spoke, Zhu Di looked at Lan Yu with a smile, "At that time, I am afraid that the center of world civilization will also shift from the Ming Dynasty to the Yan Dynasty. Such a situation will definitely arouse the efforts of a group of scholars in the Central Plains, especially young scholars. It is conducive to promoting the reform of the Central Plains."

Lan Yu smiled.

Of course he was aware of the damage that dedicating land and people would do to the central position of the Central Plains civilization.

He is no longer the blue jade he used to be.

The reason why he supports this.

It is the hope that Yan Fan’s civilization and culture will attract a group of people and expand the innovative forces within the Ming Dynasty.

However, he also had to remind King Yan, "Your Majesty, offering land and people will also stimulate a large number of conservatives. These people will only hate Yan Fan even more..."

Zhu Di waved his hand indifferently.

Suddenly he said with a firm expression: "Let's go. No matter what decision we make, we should go back to Jinling first and listen to what Kobayakawa Nakaye has to say."

…

Just as Zhu Di and his party finished their trip to Tuqiao Village and rushed back to Jinling.

East Palace.

The prince's study.

Hu Weiyong, Huang Zicheng, Qi Tai, and Lu Ben came to see Zhu Biao together and told Zhu Biao the whole story.

The study was extremely quiet.

Everyone looked at Zhu Biao.

At a certain moment, Zhu Biao gathered his thoughts and looked at Zhu Yunwen and Zhu Yunhen who were standing on the left and right, "Yunwen, Yunwen, what do you think about this matter?"

To be honest, he was both excited and worried about this matter.

Zongzi Tongyan said that he wanted to hear what the two children thought.

Zhu Yunwen pursed his lips slightly, glanced at Zhu Yunxuan, bowed and replied: "Father, donating land and people has a great impact. This is the highest standard for measuring a civilization and a culture throughout the ages. The child knows that his father's concerns and his fourth uncle's friendship, but my father is also the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. As the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, my father must first consider the interests of the Ming Dynasty!"

"Then comes emotion. When you can't have both, as a prince, you must shoulder the responsibilities and obligations of a prince. I thought, even if my fourth uncle knew, he would understand the reason for his father's choice."

In fact, he did not come up with these words.

How could he separate responsibilities and emotions so clearly at his age?

Before my grandfather and others came to see my father, they informed him and taught him these words.

According to Hu Weiyong, there are two purposes.

1. Mainly through his childish mouth, he persuaded his father.

2. Hu Weiyong said that these words could increase his status in his father's heart.

Zhu Biao nodded with a smile and turned to look at Zhu Yunzhen.

Zhu Yunxuan was a little anxious for a moment.

He was just here to deliver snacks to his mother, not his father, and he happened upon this incident by accident.

Growing up, he had never taken such an important test.

Even under the control of his mother, he was not allowed to pester his father often.

Mother said that father's love can only belong to the eldest brother, because the eldest brother is the great-grandson.

Isn't it difficult for his father to suddenly ask his opinion on such an important matter?

‘Where’s eldest brother? If the eldest brother was asked like this by his father, how would he answer? ’

Zhu Yunzhen didn't know how to answer, so he immediately thought about this question from the perspective of a hero.

Anyway, he likes his eldest brother, and his opinions are his opinions.

Lu Ben looked at Zhu Yunxuan's anxious and confused face, and his mocking smile flashed away.

"Father..." Zhu Yunxuan stuttered nervously and bowed: "Haier thinks that the imperial court should not be involved. The Japanese envoy has made it very clear that the person who offers land and people is his fourth uncle. Boyer thinks that we should stay close to his fourth uncle. Relationships and maintaining close relations between the two sides are more important than a piece of barren land in Japan."

If the elder brother is here.

I will definitely object to it.

After all, the relationship between the eldest brother and the fourth uncle is not that of father and son, but better than that of father and son.

How could he support his father's involvement in this matter?

Moreover, my mother often said that people like my fourth uncle, who did not threaten my father's rule and whose talents were unparalleled in the world, should not be offended and should find ways to maintain the relationship between them.

The relationship is good.

Whatever good things Yan Fan had, it was easier for Ming Dynasty to get them.

Zhu Biao also nodded and smiled happily.

Although the idea of ​​two children did not solve his hesitation.

But he was satisfied.

One starting point is for the Ming Dynasty.

One values ​​family ties more.

Children who have this kind of thinking are all excellent.

This proves that his education of children is not bad either.

"Your Highness Yunzhen, this is not just a matter of a piece of barren land." Huang Zicheng said anxiously: "If King Yan attacked and occupied the barren land of the Japanese country, to be honest, the court would not look down upon it at all. But now it is not a matter of land, but of land. It’s a matter of donating land to the people!”

"What Your Highness Yunwen just said is very good. Offering land and offering people has already touched upon the highest standard for measuring and evaluating a civilization and a culture. Now, what is being fought for is not a piece of land, but a fight for the height of culture and the orthodoxy of civilization. Fight!"

After saying that, Huang Zicheng turned to Zhu Biao, bowed solemnly, and said sincerely: "The Crown Prince is the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty. He not only represents the interests of the Ming Dynasty, but also shoulders the responsibility of Ming Dynasty's orthodox civilization. It must not be affected by family affection, otherwise, it will be detrimental to the culture of the Central Plains. , the betrayal of the orthodoxy of the Central Plains civilization, if there is no fight, how will future generations write this history?"

"Prince, please put the Central Plains first!" Qitai stood up.

"Prince, please put the Ming Dynasty first!" Hu Weiyong and Lu Ben clasped their fists in unison.

The study was quiet again and you could hear a needle drop.

After Zhu Biao was silent for a long time, the corners of his lips moved, breaking the silence and said, "Send the Japanese envoys for Gu, Gu wants to meet the Japanese envoys."

Lu Ben, Hu Weiyong and others looked at each other with excitement in their eyes.

Although, the prince did not express his position clearly.

It is a good sign to see the Japanese envoys.

"According to the order!" The four people accepted the order.

Huang Zicheng said anxiously: "I will go and summon the Japanese envoys for the crown prince!"

Must be fast!

quick!

We must get this matter settled before Zhu Silang gets the news and rushes back to Jinling.

In addition to fighting for cultural orthodoxy.

It can also make Zhu Silang severely disappointed.

In this way, Zhu Silang will probably keep this discomfort in his heart!

…

Half an hour.

Huang Zicheng brought Xiaobayakawa Zhongye to Zhu Biao's study.

Zhu Biao waved his hand, "Everyone else, please go down."

"Yes!" Hu Weiyong and others bowed and left.

Squeak!

After the maid served tea, the study door was closed.

Zhu Biao pointed to the chair on the left and said elegantly: "Your envoy, please take a seat."

"Thank you, Prince."

After Kobayakawa Nakaye thanked him, he sat down carefully.

Zhu Biao looked at Kobayakawa Nakaye who was dressed in Yanfan costumes and hair accessories.

Kobayakawa Nakaye also looked at Zhu Biao.

He had long heard of Prince Ming's reputation as a benevolent, righteous, and virtuous man.

However, he was even more curious as to what kind of Ming prince could make King Yan, as talented as him, so powerful that he could overwhelm the heroes of the world and give up fighting for heir apparents in the Ming Dynasty and be willing to leave overseas.

Fight through obstacles and start a business from scratch.

How to compare with inheriting such a huge empire from Ming Dynasty?

Boom! Boom! Boom!

At this moment, on the left side behind Zhu Biao, a beautiful clock as tall as one person rang. It happened to be the hour, and the bell rang.

Kobayakawa Nakaye was attracted by the sound and looked...

Zhu Biao followed Kobayakawa Nakaye's gaze and turned his head, pointed at the exquisite clock, and said with a smile: "This is a gift brought back to us by the fourth son of our family from Yan Fan. It is called a clock and is used for timekeeping."

new

"I came from Yanjing, and I have already met you in Yanjing." Kobayakawa Nakaye looked away and said with a smile: "When I went to Yanjing, Yanjing was building a bell tower on the coast north of the Century Bridge. It is said that the base of this bell tower is made of cement and steel bars and is ten feet high. Such precise timing tools will be installed around the top. By then, the people of Yanjing will be able to move their heads no matter where they are in Yanjing. When I saw this bell tower, I heard that there is also this sound of telling time. Every time on the hour, the bell will ring throughout Yanjing..."

Ten feet tall?

Four bell towers?

Zhu Biao was slightly stunned.

He could not imagine how grand such a building would be when completed.

In terms of skills, the Ming Dynasty was indeed far behind the fourth Yan clan.

"The various skills under the rule of Yan Fan, the fourth son of our family, are indeed fascinating and very attractive to everyone." Zhu Biao said casually, pointed to the clothes on Kobayakawa Nakaye, and asked with a smile: "Your group not only learns the two ideas and concepts of our fourth son, but also learns the clothing and hair accessories?"

Um.

Kobayakawa Nakaye nodded with a pious smile, "We believe that under King Yan's rule, not only were there various advanced skills, but also civilization and culture were very advanced. We have always been pious and learned step by step, but our abilities are limited. , and ultimately ended up like a toddler in Handan..."

In fact, he never understood that Ming Dynasty was the mother country of King Yan.

Emperor Ming was the father of King Yan.

The prince in front of him is the brother of King Yan.

Why didn’t the Ming Dynasty take full advantage of the advantage of being so close to the water?

This time I came to Jinling and made a quick observation while entering the city.

The most beautiful place in the Ming Dynasty is really far from Yanjing.

Regardless of the mental state of the people.

Or the level of civil society activity.

None of them are the same.

…

The open space outside the study room.

Lu Ben and the four of them stared nervously and anxiously at the closed study door.

Huang Zicheng muttered anxiously, "I don't know what's going on. If the prince comes forward, this little Japanese envoy should be convinced, right?"

Squeak!

At this moment, the imperial study room door opened.

The four people were shocked.

Seeing Zhu Biao and Kobayakawa Nakaye coming out of it talking and laughing, they looked at each other with excitement on their faces.

Done! ?

Kobayakawa Nakaye bowed solemnly, "It is an honor for me to be summoned by the prince."

Zhu Biao smiled and waved his hand, "I have benefited a lot from communicating with you. I hope I will have the opportunity to communicate with you again in the future."

Xiaobayakawa Zhongye showed humility, bowed again, and left with the young eunuch.

Hu Weiyong and the other two quickly rushed to the door of the study.

After meeting Zhu Biao.

Qi Tai couldn't wait to bow and asked: "Has the Crown Prince convinced Kobayakawa Nakaye?"

Zhu Biao looked at four pairs of eyes, staring at him eagerly, and shook his head with a wry smile, "Without persuasion, the Japanese rebel group led by Kobayakawa Nakaye has recognized the Yan vassal. Qitai, Huang Zicheng, you two go and get the news about the Japanese envoy. Tell your Majesty."

"Next, the Rites Department will provide good services for the negotiations between Lao Si and Kobayakawa Nakaye."

ah?

Huang Zicheng and others were stunned.

"Prince..." Huang Zicheng said eagerly...

Zhu Biao waved his hand and said, "Do as I tell you."

After the words fell, Zhu Biao ignored the four people and turned back to the study.

After watching Lu Ben and the others leave, Zhu Biao stood in front of the window, dazed.

In fact, he did not explicitly ask Kobayakawa Nakaye to donate land to the Ming Dynasty and the people.

No need.

Because in the conversation with Kobayakawa Nakaye.

He has deeply felt that the Japanese rebel group led by Kobayakawa Nakaye has such pious respect for the fourth Yan clan.

Not only that, in their imagination, the technology of Laosi Yanfan was attractive.

Compared to technology.

This Japanese rebel group obviously worshiped the fourth Yan Fan more devoutly. In several years, it developed a new culture based on the solid foundation of the Central Plains culture!

The clues can be seen from their imitation of Yan Fan's clothes and hair accessories.

Not to mention, during the conversation, Kobayakawa Nakaye devoutly talked about various humanities in Yanjing, the fourth child.

For example, the status of women has been greatly improved.

Officials are responsible and do not have a bureaucracy that is condescending and bossy.

Kobayakawa Nakaye also said that officials have no bureaucracy, and they don't dare to do so at the moment.

Because he was intimidated by Yan Fan's special system.

But at that time, when Kobayakawa Nakaye said this, he was very optimistic and even excited. He forgot the etiquette and raised his hands to make famous gestures and said: "Although the current bureaucracy of Yanfan officials is intimidated by the special system and they dare not, but the ministers I am very optimistic about the future of Yan Fan. When the traditional bureaucracy has been suppressed by institutional intimidation for a long time, officials will first be afraid, then get used to it, and finally adapt. I believe that as long as Yan Fan’s methods can improve the people The system of political and economic status is unwavering, and Yan Fan may be the first regime in history to explore ways to solve the bureaucracy!"

…

In addition to these, Kobayakawa Nakaye also talked about a lot, the fourth Yan Fan, and the new culture that they, the Japanese rebel group, worshiped devoutly.

Zhu Biao stared into the distance, patted the window sill, and murmured to himself, "Is the Kobayakawa Nakaye rebel group's devout worship of the culture and civilization of the fourth Yan clan an exception, or is it a common phenomenon? Could it be that, in just a few years, , the culture and civilization of Yan Fan has already surpassed that of Ming Dynasty? How is this possible? "

…

evening.

Curfew is approaching.

More than a dozen new-style carriages drove into Jinling City.

"Your Majesty!"

"It's the prince! The prince has returned from Tuqiao Village!"

…

When the people vaguely saw Zhu Di in the carriage through the glass windows, they couldn't help but comment.

Zhu Di sat in the carriage and looked through the glass window at the people rushing home in the dark sky.

Qihua sat next to Zhu Di, climbed on the window, and turned around, "Dad, mother, why didn't the emperor install biogas lamps in the city? At night, Jinling City is dark and quiet, which is not fun at all. , there is no park, no night market, and no grand theater, what do the people of Jinling City do at night?"

Xu Miaoyun glared angrily, "You were like this when you were a child. It's only been a few years since Yanjing was built. Don't forget your roots!"

"Yes, Zhu Qihua, don't forget your roots too much!" Jin Douzi seized the opportunity and immediately spoke to add fuel to the fire.

Qihua pretended to be fierce and clenched her fists to scare Jindouzi.

Zhu Di watched the three little guys interacting, smiled, opened the small window in front, and ordered: "Uncle Six, let's go back to my Taishan mansion."

"Okay!" Mao Xiang responded.

Xu Miaoyun looked at Zhu Di and asked, "Aren't you going to meet Kobayakawa Nakaye?"

"Tomorrow."

…

The group returned to Xu Mansion.

Xu Da called Zhu Di to the study. The candles were burning, and the swaying light reflected Xu Da's gray hair.

"I received news that before you came back, the prince summoned the Japanese envoy Kobayakawa Nakaye. It is unclear what he said specifically. It is also unclear whether Kobayakawa Nakaye is still willing to serve you..."

Xu Da looked at Zhu Di's calm face and nodded happily.

The worry flashed away in his eyes.

In fact, he was a little worried. Did the prince and Kobayakawa Nakaye reach some secret deal?

But these words should not be spoken out, as they would be suspected of alienating the royal brothers.

Zhu Di already knew what Xu Da was worried about.

Confidently said: "I know Taishan's worries. Even if I want to annex the Japanese country, the Japanese country will not be able to become a whole."

"As for whether Kobayakawa Nakaye is still willing to serve our Yan Fan, we will find out when we meet tomorrow."

…

royal palace.

Just when Zhu Di and Xu Da were talking.

Zhu Yuanzhang returned to Kunning Palace.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, he patted his sore and stiff legs and said with emotion: "The fourth brother has made his mark. Since the Zhou Dynasty, for thousands of years, there has been no such thing as donating soil to the people in the history of the Central Plains. Now , this kind of thing happened in our son's Yan Fan. When Huang Zicheng and Qi Tai came to see us today, they tried their best to persuade us to take action and let the Japanese country donate land and people to our Ming Dynasty. I was scolded severely. Isn’t this deception!”

"Facts have proven that the Central Plains culture and civilization inherited by our Ming Dynasty have been far away from the attractiveness of the foreign countries by the fourth Yan vassal. Can forcing the Japanese countries to donate their land and people to our Ming Dynasty change this fact?"

"This will only make a bunch of bastards who are resting on their ancestors' merits continue to sit in a dream and never wake up!"

Ma Xiuying listened with a smile while removing her makeup.

Asked: "Before the curfew, Lan Yu came back with the fourth child and hurried into the palace to see him. Is it because of this?"

"Well, when Lan Yu saw us, he advised us that the court should not set up obstacles and should support us. He also said that this move would attract a large number of promising young scholars to actively learn from the old Si Yan Fan and lay the foundation for future innovation."

"This Lan Yu has indeed matured a lot over the years, and our high hopes for him are not in vain."

"Tomorrow, let's go to Huitong Museum together to witness this historic moment!"

…

The next day.

Three poles in the sun.

Zhu Di had been waiting for Zhu Yuanzhang's arrival at the entrance of Huitong Hall early.

Zhu Xi stood next to Zhu Di, put his arms around Zhu Di's shoulders, turned his head and looked behind him. Xiaobayakawa Nakaye, who was full of humility and respect, punched Zhu Di in the chest, "Okay, fourth brother, you Yan" The vassal vassal has attracted surrounding small countries to actively donate their land and people!"

As soon as Zhu Xi opened his mouth, the other brothers immediately joined in.

"Fourth brother, now I want to visit Yanjing even more."

"Yes, I can't wait to see it too!"

…

"Father and eldest brother are here!"

At this moment, Lao Wu suddenly shouted.

Everyone looked forward.

New-style carriages came from a distance.

After getting close.

Zhu Yuanzhang and Ma Xiuying got off the carriage first.

"Meet my father and mother."

When Zhu Yuanzhang was talking to Zhu Di and Kobayakawa Nakaye.

In the carriage behind.

The courtiers who came to 'watch the excitement' also got off their carriages.

Hu Weiyong, Lu Ben and others watched Liu Bowen and Li Shanchang get off the new carriage, with a flash of envy in their eyes.

Although they hate Yan Fan.

But now, carriages like Yan Fan have become a status symbol.

Unfortunately, except for a few of the courtiers, who received gifts from Zhu Silang, the others could only watch with eager eyes.

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at the ministers who were getting off the carriage in a mighty manner behind him, turned his head and looked at Zhu Di, "Let's go into the Huitong Hall. Today, my father and your mother will witness this moment in person!"

His bastard son could achieve such an achievement.

He is happy!

This moment must be witnessed with your own eyes!

Soon, everyone arrived at the venue that had been arranged in the Huitong Pavilion.

a table.

Zhu Di, Yongming and his son sat on one side, and the Japanese envoys headed by Kobayakawa Nakaye sat on the other side.

Zhu Yuanzhang, Ma Xiuying, Zhu Biao and others sat and watched.

Zhu Di looked at Kobayakawa Nakaye and asked: "I have a few questions that I want to confirm with you. First, the Japanese emperor Wanshi and his family were killed, and all the dirty water was poured on you. With the army you control, have the people under your rule suffered? Influence?"

"Second, have you decided that you want to donate land to the Yan vassal and the people under my leadership? Is it an internal consensus? What is the attitude of the people under your rule towards this?"

…

Zhu Yuanzhang looked on.

Kobayakawa Nakaye was very nervous and tried to keep calm and replied: "Your Majesty, although Ohno Goro pursues two propositions and two concepts, he has also been promoting the despicable Manseichi lineage. After the Manseichi lineage was exterminated, the army is fine. The soldiers had known for a long time that we and the princes were fighting to the death, and the people were indeed affected by the genocide of the eternal line. However, as the princes threatened to kill us, from the elite to the common people, the people became afraid. Now, we Under the rule, the morale of the military and the people is very panicked and unstable. Once a war breaks out, it is very likely to collapse immediately..."

"The people under the rule have always known that the two ideas and the two propositions came from the Yan Fan. The new culture we promoted also learned from the Yan Fan, so they admire the prince very much. As long as the elites from the sea and land under the prince can help us fight a big war. Winning the battle will immediately stabilize the morale of the military and the people."

"If the prince is willing to accept us, we here, whether soldiers or people, are absolutely willing to follow the prince devoutly."

…

Zhu Di listened carefully.

Don't miss every detail.

Not as bad as imagined.

As long as the Ohno Goro Group can use the morale of the military and the people.

It seems that we can also invade the Japanese country.

Zhu Di reminded: "Do you understand that as long as I invade the Japanese country and accept your sacrifice of land and people, in the future, under my rule, there will be no He clan anymore, and some will only have one identity, Yan people! In the future, your traditional The inherent cultural customs must be gradually transformed into the Yan Fan. Are you sure you can accept these?"

"I can tell you now that once I wipe out the coalition of princes and those who are unwilling to surrender to me, I will arm them and send them out of Yan Fan as gifts, and let them go to other places, such as your Japanese samurai ronin, daimyo, retainers, etc."

He has already thought about it.

The unstable elites and samurai ronin must be organized and sent out!

As for the place, he had already thought about it.

Throw it to the subcontinent!

Let this group of people cause trouble in the subcontinent!

In the future of Yan Fan, the mantis will catch the cicada and the oriole will follow behind.

Kobayakawa Nakaye smiled bitterly, 'Sure enough, King Yan really does not want to annex the Japanese country. ’

Ventriloquism at the same time, he stood up and bowed deeply, "Your Majesty, I thought at the beginning that only Your Majesty could save the people of Japan, but Ohno-kun..." Ohno-kun also woke up before he died. We all agree with all the decisions of Your Majesty, I only hope that the prince can treat the people under our rule the same as the people of Yan Fan, and we are willing to be Yan people!"

How are the people under the rule of the coalition of princes?
