Let's say that the Ming people here are secretly discussing with the Ryukyuan people, and the Japanese people are also plotting over there.

After the banquet was dispersed, Shang Rang secretly summoned Cai Lingfei and Ruan Yuanyuan, and told the two to wait until tomorrow night, they could go to Mingren and show them the way!

The two were overjoyed, and were warned to keep it secret and not to talk to their families.

However, it has no effect whether to talk about it or not, because the Japanese are ready to do it tomorrow and assassinate Yan Changwu!

With the "three little ghosts" of Oshimane, Miki Takashi and Tanaka Yan, they returned to their residences and held a meeting to discuss, which I found very tricky!

They had already sent someone to go out to sea on a fast boat, went to Wajima, and reported to the Satsuma Domain, but the distant water could not save the near fire, so they had to save themselves!

"I see that the Akito are very friendly to the Ryukyuan people, but I am afraid that it will not be good for us!" Oshima Root

"That's inevitable!" Tanaka agreed.

The three of them are thieves with weak hearts, knowing that they usually offend the Ryukyuan people so badly, and today the Ryukyuan people have come to savior, how can they not retaliate!

In fact, they still have a way out, as long as they get on the ship overnight and leave the Ryukyus, the Ryukyuan and the Ming people will not be killed.

The relationship between countries is complicated, and if you leave a line for being a man, you will see each other in the future, and if you admit it, the Ryukyuan people will not put the baby to death.

But how could the three little ghosts do this, the Wa Kingdom acted extremely, if the three little ghosts returned to China in disgrace, there was no good fruit for them to eat, so they had to take risks.

Oshimane said slowly, "Tomorrow's Aketo itinerary is to visit Kume Village, and you can do something from it!" ”

It turned out that Ryukyu was mainly based on China, and Zhu Yuanzhang gave Ryukyu 36 Fujian people with the surname of good boat maneuvering to go back and forth between the two countries to pay tribute. Among the 36 surnames, those who are famous in the Ryukyus are Liang, Cai, Mao, Zheng, Chen, Zeng, Nguyen, and Jin.

Kume Village, where the descendants of the 36 surnames of the Ming Dynasty lived at that time, was located on the side of the royal capital Shuri. The four prefectures of Shuri, Bo, Kume, and Naha were the provinces of Wanggi, which were under the direct jurisdiction of the King of the Ryukyus.

They are equivalent to naturalizing overseas Chinese in the Ryukyus, and there are people from their home country, and of course they want to visit overseas Chinese, because they have decided to visit Kume Village tomorrow, and the Japanese want to learn from it!

The three ghosts were silent, and only then did they say coldly: "Stay until tomorrow, in Kume Village, I will take the action and take the order of the Ming overseer!" ”

"My knife has been thirsty for human blood for a long time!" He threw two swords, both of which were cold and bright, and extremely sharp.

Oshimane and Tanaka smoke agree together, Guy Sankitaka is a master of swordsmanship, good at assassination, and it is best for him to shoot.

Oshima Root thought for a moment and said: "Just the three ghost kings made a move, it is still thin, I have a plan." ”

He decided that tomorrow, the Japanese would wear Ryukyu costumes and pretend to be Ryukyuan people to go to the dock area to find a conflict with the Akito, disrupting the line of sight, and it was best to provoke discord between the Akito and the Ryukyuan, and it would be a good thing for the two sides to fight.

Then there was Tanaka Yan himself who drove the ship, loaded it with oil, and went to burn the Ming ship.

"Once we succeed, we will be the heroes who challenge the Akito!"

"Yes!" Sanwa said in Chinese: "If you don't succeed, you will become benevolent!" ”

They left no retreat, and the fanaticism and desperation of the Japanese people can be seen.

……

At about 8 o'clock in the morning, the big ship of the southeast province slowly docked, and Yan Changwu went ashore and, under the protection of senior officers, personal guards, and marines, accompanied by Ryukyu Vice Minister Zeng Miao, went to Kume Village for a visit.

Zeng Miller, who is the descendant of the 36 surnames of the Fujian people in Ryukyu, speaks good Chinese, and is actually Hokkien!

Describing the cause, Zeng Milling is a Haicheng person, and when the villagers see the villagers, their eyes are full of tears!

Because there were still Japanese people following him, it was inconvenient to talk deeply, so Chen Xinji talked about the affairs of the Southeast Mansion, and his eyes lit up when he heard it.

Put your mind at ease!

The Southeast Prefecture is so rich, I don't think it will really care about our Ryukyu idea, and give us Ryukyu as a protector, how good!

The group went to Kume Village, where Chinese immigrants with relatively superior cultural literacy, economic status and social status lived, so looking at Kume Village from afar, "people are scattered" and "bamboo fences can be cut into the painting".

Da Ming, it's still a bit powerful!

Nineteen years ago, the Satsuma Domain of the Wakoku invaded the Ryukyus, and did all kinds of evil, the king of the Ryukyus became a prisoner, and the people let the fish and meat, but Kume Village, the Wa people did not dare to enter!

This is the territory of the Ming people, in case of angering the Ming people, you must know that Toyotomi Hideyoshi is defeated in the hands of the Ming army!

The Tokugawa shogunate, which replaced Toyotomi Hideyoshi, was well aware of this allusion, and strictly ordered the Satsuma Domain to have two major thunder pools that could not be moved:

First, the Ryukyu Kingdom must not be extinct;

The second is Kume Village, where the people of the Ming Dynasty live inhabited!

Therefore, Kume Village has to survive, and most of its people are scholars, who pay great attention to gardening, carefully manage the courtyard, plant exotic flowers and flowers, and build rockery ponds. ”

Zeng Milled proudly talked about the matter of Kume Village, and said that there are two large temples in the garden, one is the Confucius Temple, and the other is the Temple of the Queen of Heaven and the Temple of Guandi, all of which are quite large-scale.

Because of his Chinese origin, Kume Village had a strong literary style, especially in the families of officials and scholars. The school in Kume Village is located in the north of the Temple of Confucius.

"Those who are the best of Kumishi are all out of school, and those who are proficient in arts and sciences are chosen as their teachers, and they are endowed with gifts." Zeng Mo explained.

The school education is based on the Chinese language. If you can speak, you will be taught Chinese, and if you can write, you will be taught Chinese. When he was ten years old, he was called "Ku Xiucai", and the king gave him a stone of rice; At the age of fifteen, he shaved his hair, first paid homage to Confucius, and then went to see the king. The king registered his name as "Xiucai" and gave him three stones of rice.

At that time, rice was a scarce and precious food in the Ryukyus, and only the royal family and officials could enjoy it, and the common people could only eat sweet potatoes.

"There are few rice fields, but there are many potato fields. The people of the country take potatoes as their life, and rice is eaten by the kings. ”

The children of the Kume people, who served as the courtiers of the Chinese canonization envoys, were also eligible to enter the Taixue study in Beijing with the children of the royal family.

"There is a Ryukyuan language in Ryukyu, but Chinese is the language of the upper class, and it is a must be known by the upper class, and the royal family and high-ranking officials all speak Chinese. Their edicts, calendars, official histories, and genealogies are all recorded in Chinese characters. Zeng Mo said intoxicatedly: "The beauty of my Chinese language and writing is the first in the world!" ”

"That's, that's!" Yan Changwu echoed, catching a glimpse of Chen Xinji smiling slightly, and glared at him fiercely.

He knows his own affairs, and Chen Xinji is laughing at him.

The Southeast Mansion, which has a strong military force and a lot of money, does not have a decent and handy school!

He established two colleges, one is the Naval Academy and the other is the Engineering College, both of which are mainly practice-oriented, and the retreat school cannot be established.

Well, the Confucian Temple has not yet been erected.

Without him, those who defected to him were those poor scholars, and the highest was just Xiucai.

The others, those eunuchs, jinshi and people, are all winners in life, how can they be thieves!

As a result, the impoverished Ryukyu was able to outperform the southeastern province in this regard.

……

Just as they said harmoniously, they passed a large archway at the entrance of the village, which was the style of the floating corners of the city tower, made of golden glazed tiles, which was very eye-catching. The pillar stone is solid and huge, there are four characters on it, it is written by King Shangzhen, when the Ryukyus entered a golden age with the help of Chinese immigrants, the country entered a golden age, completely unified the entire Ryukyu archipelago, there are many islands, that is, "three provinces and 36 islands", and the internal affairs of the Ryukyu country were determined, because of the use of Chinese immigrants, they gave the word, and gave them the golden glazed tiles of the royal family to build the archway, which is a rare honor.

Yan Changwu rode through the big archway, the wind sounded, and a golden cloud pressed down from above!
