Ji Shiju rode his horse and followed Fang Jun, browsing the prosperous street scene of the Tang Imperial Capital, and said with a smile: "Isn't that idiot on the dog day?" His Majesty the Emperor was annoyed and angry, but he was terrified, although he knew that the Tang Dynasty was now a new strategy to attack Goguryeo, but who knew that after Goguryeo was pacified, would he take the main island of the Wa Kingdom directly? Therefore he sent men of despicable men and sent fifty women. ”

Fang Junqi said: "There are only fifty women? Nothing else? ”

Ji Shiju smiled: "What else do you expect?" His Majesty the Emperor seems to be majestic, but in fact the palace where he lives is a wooden house, and silk clothes can only be worn when worshipping our ancestors...... The country of Wa is so poor that there are only people. ”

Fang Jun suddenly, it seems that the place of the Wa Kingdom has not been rich in ancient times, even the later "Meiji Restoration" was the monarch and the minister tightened their belts together, laying a solid foundation for the country, until the First Sino-Japanese War bet on the "national fortune" bet won, I Daqing compensated 200 million taels of silver, this is all of a sudden trembling, and on the road to a rich country and a strong army, out of control......

However, Fang Jun also knew that the tribute that the Wa Kingdom came to the Central Plains Dynasty to "pay tribute" to select beauties, and it also had a origin.

It is recorded in the Book of the Later Han Dynasty: "In the first year of Emperor An's Yongchu, the Japanese king was promoted to 160 people, and he was willing to see him", and the Japanese country was so poor that there were only people, and only 160 beauties were sent, which made the emperor cry and laugh. Later, the tribute paid by the Wa State during the Three Kingdoms period was even more bizarre, the Wa State was in a situation of warlord secession at that time, and a queen named Himiko wanted to ask the Han for help, but when she arrived at the land, she found that the Han Dynasty had been divided into three, and the envoy of Himiko found the Wei State and offered four men and six women to the Wei State......

Forget about sending women, what does it mean to send men?

Emperor Wei was not a man, but in view of Himiko's sincerity, he praised the envoy and gave back a large number of things. Including a total of 200 pieces of fine fabric, eight taels of gold, bronze mirrors, pearls and other practical objects.

The envoys of the Japanese kingdom are about to go crazy......

Just sent a few beauties to exchange so many items, it must be that the emperor of the Han Dynasty likes the beauties of the Japanese Kingdom! In order to please the emperor of the Central Plains, almost all the later tributes of the Japanese Kingdom were also beautiful women, and they were also happy to pay the same tribute, in order to get more valuable things from the Central Plains.

However, because the Japanese kingdom had not yet produced written texts at that time, and the only documents that were later destroyed due to the warlord melee, these events can hardly be found in modern times, so they are not recorded. However, one or two can be found in the history books in China, and some devil scholars try their best to deny the historical facts of paying tribute to beauties.

Because they feel that they are embarrassed to pay tribute to and send beautiful women......

The two talked and laughed all the way, Ji Shiju told Fang Jun about the situation in the Japanese Kingdom, and the various achievements of the Ezo people who continued to resist the Japanese after receiving secret funding from the Tang Dynasty, and went straight to the Yamen of the Ministry of War.

As an envoy of the Japanese State, it is impossible to let them enter when they go out of the Honglu Temple, such as the central yamen such as the Ministry of War, even if they stand at the door. Although the officials of the Tang Dynasty have some arrogance and hypocrisy of the Heavenly Empire, they should definitely show the superiority of the ceremonial state of the Central Plains Dynasty in front of the barbarians, but they are by no means like the kneeling and licking posture of "my Qing Dynasty" in front of the "foreign grandfather", which is fundamentally different.

Therefore, Ji Shiju could not hide his excitement and curiosity, and looked around when he entered the yamen.

In his mind, the official household rite and criminal work were the yamen responsible for specific government affairs in the Tang Empire, covering almost all aspects. The Ministry of Officials is in charge of officials, the Ministry of Households is in charge of money, the Criminal Department is in charge of criminal name investigation, and the Ministry of Engineering is in charge of maintenance and construction, so the Ministry of War, as the name suggests, should be the center of military affairs in the Tang Dynasty......

How strong is Datang's military?

When the invincible Turkic wolf rider was chased by the Tang Dynasty military god and fled to the north, it means that there is no military strength in this world that can resist the Tang Dynasty head-on, so to speak, as long as the Tang Emperor wants to destroy whom, then he can destroy whom!

When the Tang Emperor intended to go east, he thought that he could drag a million Sui troops into the quagmire just like he had dragged a million Sui troops into the quagmire, and no one in the world thought that Goguryeo could resist the invincible soldiers of the Tang Dynasty.

After all, the Sui army was certainly violent, but at that time, the domestic political situation was turbulent, and there were many factions in the army. However, the current Tang Dynasty is not the Great Sui of the past, His Majesty Li Er is wise and martial, although there are also gate lords who are involved with each other, but all the generals in the army are fierce generals who follow His Majesty Li Er to pacify the world, and obey His Majesty Li Er's words, how can a corner of Goguryeo resist?

The mantis arm is a car, and it is just a matter of self-strength......

Commanding the center of millions of the world's strongest armies, what a secret place is that? On the one hand, Ji Shiju was grateful to Fang Junwei for treating him as a widow and being able to show him the core secrets of the Tang Dynasty, and on the other hand, he widened his eyes, hoping to learn from some, even if it was just a little bit of the operation mode, which could bring incredible progress to the extremely backward Ezo people......

But how did he know that the current military department is just a name, and all it handles all day long is nothing more than the transportation of grain and grass, the supply of baggage, and the deployment of weapons......

*****

Liu hurried to the yamen of the military department, and as soon as he entered the door, he attracted everyone's attention......

"Oops, what's wrong with this?"

Guo Fushan held his round belly, looked at the bruises in Liu's eyes, and asked curiously.

Cui Dunli, the staff officer, walked out of the duty room with a small teapot, and said with a smile when he saw this: "Could it be that I went to Pingkangfang yesterday to drink flower wine, and went home to my sister-in-law's wife?" Hehe, it is said that the girls of the Liu family in Hedong are all spicy and clever, but they don't want to marry back The wife is also very fierce, haha. ”

All the colleagues laughed in unison, full of ridicule......

The willow face was red-eared, and he said angrily: "Where is the matter? Hugh said that he didn't have time to go to Pingkangfang these days when he hit the back of his head, and even if he went, who would dare to make noise at home? ”

Cui Dunli smiled and asked, "Then what's the matter with the injury on your face?" ”

Liu touched his still hot eyes, was extremely depressed, and said in a sullen voice: "What do you have to do?" Did the chamberlain ever come to the yamen? ”

Someone said, "Come on, come here, lead a widow in the duty room." ”

Liu Qi said: "How did you bring the Japanese people here?" ”

"The person is Zuo Shilang, and if Master Shangshu is not there, he is the number one, who can care who he leads? Even if this yamen is demolished, it will not matter to us. ”

Liu glanced at this yin and yang weird guy and didn't answer.

Every yamen is a river and lake, regardless of the size of the yamen, there are always people who look at the height of the mountain, just like he was as angry as he was at the beginning. It's just that not everyone can be like him who just jumped out and was hit by Fang Jun head-on, suppressed to death, and didn't dare to move at all, not because Fang Jun targeted him, but relative to him, those people are not worth Fang Jun's effort at all.

I don't know whether I should be glad to be able to be looked down upon by Fang Jun, or should I be sad why Fang Jun doesn't divide rewards and punishments, and a bowl of water can't be leveled, why was he so fierce to me in the first place, but he turned a blind eye to these people?

Liu ignored the sore tooth, bowed slightly to Guo Fushan and Cui Dunli, and went straight to Fang Jun's duty room.

In the duty room, Fang Jun was handling official business, and Ji Shiju was sitting on the side drinking tea, looking around with his eyes purring......

When he heard the sound of footsteps, Fang Jun raised his head from the case and saw the black-eyed willow.

"Yo he, what's the matter, was it boiled by my sister-in-law?" Fang Jun teased.

Liu was speechless......

Why is this sentence again?

Mother, does Lao Tzu look like a fearful inside?

Besides, even if Lao Tzu is really afraid of his wife, but others can laugh at us, where do you Fang Jun have that qualification?

When it comes to "fear of guilt", your father is the originator of fear of guilt in the world......

Liu's face was very unpleasant, of course he didn't dare to scold Fang Jun in person, "Your father is afraid of his wife", isn't that looking for death?

But after all, he couldn't calm down, pointed to his dark blue eyes and a scratch on his cheek, and said in a muffled voice: "You saw it, right?" Here, it was He Ruoming's kid who smashed it with a fist, and here, it was Yu Wenjian's kid who scratched it, if it weren't for the lower officials to hide quickly, it would have to be all spent on ...... face."

Fang Junqi said: "Which one is Yu Wenjian?" ”

Liu said depressedly: "Which one else can it be?" The son of Shangshu Yu Wenbi of the former Sui Ministry of Officials...... A while ago, His Majesty adjusted the officials of various construction bureaus, He Ruoming replaced Wen Shutong as the military superintendent, and the current Shaofu superintendent is Yu Wenjian!! ”

Come on, what else does Fang Jun not understand?

One is the supervisor of the ordnance supervisor, and the other is the supervisor of the Shaofu prison, these two people can use the old fist against Liu Feng regardless of their identity, and the former is still Liu Zhi's friend, so there will be no other reason, it must be that Liu Digren dug up without discipline, which made these two people angry......

Fang Jun smiled awkwardly, a little embarrassed, after all, he forced Liu to do this.

It's just that the heart is weak for a while, and there are not many things like conscience, so he asked excitedly: "How are the talents dug up?" ”

If the chief officials of the two highest manufacturing industries in Datang are so angry that they beat people, they must be digging the foot of the wall so that the two of them can't stand it......
