The Imperial Palace in Kyoto, Japan, occupies a small area, more than 400 steps wide from east to west, 8,900 steps long from north to south, and covers an area of only one-tenth of the Forbidden City in Nanjing. The buildings in the palace are full of strong Tang style, but there is no luxury style of the Tang Dynasty, at least not as good as the palace of the Tang Dynasty, and the sky is a palace. And in Japan, the Imperial Palace is not a luxury and luxury, and it can't be compared with Edo Castle at all, it's too bad! Even the residences of many powerful feudal lords are more beautiful than the Kyoto Imperial Palace.

Moreover, the materials used to build the house in the Kyoto Imperial Palace are very poor, and it is frugal to say that it sounds good, and it is to cut corners when it is unpleasant, and it is full of poor acidity. There are still many places that are damaged, and there is no money to repair them, so they will be used for such a beautiful look...... When it really collapsed, the shogunate would still give the two of them a small amount of money to rebuild.

However, the Kyoto Imperial Palace is broken, and the person who lives in it is still the nominal owner of Japan after all...... Descendants of the Divine Stick.

Therefore, the stupid princess of Shangluo and Tokugawa Mitsukuni still have to go to the court to meet them.

The place where the Emperor received Tokugawa Iessuna and Tokugawa Mitsukuni was Shishiroden, which was also the main hall of the Kyoto Imperial Palace. When Gong Fang and the elder arrived, it was raining outside, so the inside of the Zichen Hall was also drenched, and there were several wooden basins on the floor, followed by rainwater leaking from the roof.

However, the place where Jiagang and Guangguo knelt was still dry, and there were seven or eight ministers who sat with them on both sides, and they also chose a place where there was no dripping water to sit, that is, Guan Bai Nijo Guangping was a little unlucky, and sat on the edge of a wooden basin that received water...... There is a sigh of sighing!

It's not because Zichen Hall is leaking rain and sighing, who doesn't leak? These ministers in Kyoto have long been accustomed to leaking houses and being forced into debt by usurious businessmen to find a broken temple to hide for a few days - ministers, isn't this how life lives? When the rice is sent, the debts are repaid, and after the debts are repaid, they continue to borrow, and after the debts are borrowed, they sing and sing songs, write Chinese poems, and pretend to be literary and artistic youth, literary and artistic middle-aged, and literary and artistic elderly...... Pretending to be a lifetime has passed.

Glory and wealth are all stories in "The Tale of Genji", and they can't be true......

But how could Nijo Guangping, who has more than 1,000 Shi Jialu but has more than 5,000 stone usury (not owed by his generation), never think that his own family can barely eat, but the usury will never be over, and there will be a time when the life of the minister will come to an end!

It's coming to an end now...... The Heavenly Emperor is gone, can the Gongqing's family still exist? In the future, if there is no Jialu of more than 1,000 stones, and a butt of loan sharks, how will you live? Will it starve to death? Will he be hacked to death by the samurai who asks for the account?

Thinking of this, Mitsuhei Nijo is about to cry!

Just when he was about to cry or not, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps on the wooden floor of the corridor outside the Zichen Palace, and then he saw two attendants open the curtain, and then the Minister of the Interior appeared in front of everyone and said loudly: "His Majesty the Emperor has arrived, the Emperor of the Ming Courtyard has arrived, and all the officials are welcome!" ”

What the? Why did the Emperor of the Ming Shoin Yuan come? She's not going to be hot-headed to lash out at the rebels, is she? Don't do that...... Nijo Hikaru said calmly: I still want to starve to death in peace, don't mess with the general and cause me to be hacked to death with a knife!

Lord Guan Bai forgot to even cry, and hurriedly gave the left minister on the opposite side, Ying Si Fang Suke, a look.

Minister Zuo is also confused, Ming Zhengyuan has retired for more than ten years, and his wife has been peaceful, what's going on today? What do you want to do?

The curtain was lowered again, which meant that the emperor and the emperor were coming out—the sons of the gods could not be seen casually, so they had to be covered with curtains.

The ministers all greeted each other and said, "Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor!" ”

The emperor behind the curtain said in a melodious tone: "All the ministers are flat. ”

The big guys all straightened up and looked at the curtain, and could vaguely see two people sitting side by side behind the curtain.

At this time, the emperor opened his mouth again: "I suddenly contracted a serious illness a few days ago, was bedridden, and could not manage the government, and after consulting with the Emperor of Gomizuoin, I decided to retire and give way to Emperor Mingzheng, and from today onwards, Emperor Mingzheng will be the emperor again!" ”

What the? The emperor has changed!

Everyone was stunned, but suddenly heard Tokugawa Mitsukuni shouting: "Congratulations to Emperor Ming Zhengyuan on his reinstatement as emperor!" ”

That's the final word!

The stupid princess does not hold power, and the current Japan is governed by two shogunate elders! The elder Hoshina Masayuki was supervising the army at the front, so it was this Tokugawa Mitsukuni who was actually in charge of the shogunate.

Guangguo made a gesture, and then there was a congratulatory voice.

Emperor Gosai, who had already abdicated, sighed, got up and left, and after the curtain, only the female emperor of Ming Zheng remained.

"Roll up the curtains!" Behind the veil, Empress Mingzheng gave an order that surprised most people.

Nijo Kohei just wanted to open his mouth to stop it, but suddenly found that Tokugawa Mitsukuni was looking at him viciously, and quickly shut up.

When the curtain was rolled up, all the ministers bowed their heads, not daring to look at the emperor. Empress Mingzheng said again: "Raise your heads and look at me." ”

Except for Tokugawa Mitsukuni and Tokugawa Ietsuna, no one else dared to raise their heads.

Guangguo looked at his cousin, a 36-year-old woman, but she was very well maintained, her face was ruddy, her skin was delicate, and her chest was still bulging...... The facial features are also good, although she can't be a first-class beauty, but she is also a woman with a lot of charm.

"Mito Daina," the Empress asked, "why did you and the Shogun come to Kyoto?" ”

"Your Majesty," said Tokugawa Mitsukoku, "last year, Wu Sangui, the general of the Ming Kingdom, dug up the Mausoleum of the First Emperor when he was building the city, and obtained a batch of bamboo slips, which recorded the Qin Dynasty Fangshi Xu Fu crossing to the east and asking for the title of Shenwu Wawang...... The Ming Emperor has sent an envoy to Japan to check the authenticity of this matter.

Your Majesty, is Emperor Shenwu really Xu Fu, a scholar of the Qin State? ”

Everyone's hearts were in their throats.

"Emperor Shenwu is Xu Fu!" The female emperor replied, "My Yamato Dynasty is the foundation created by Xu Fu Dongdu...... In the palace, there has always been an edict of the first emperor to crown the ancestor as the king of Shenwu! ”

Admit it?

It's over......

The ministers all seemed to be deflated, and they all fell to their knees limply.

The emperor is not a god, what should they do?

"So...... Is there a collection of elixirs of immortality in the palace? Tokugawa Mitsukuni said seriously, "If there is an elixir, the Celestial Empire will definitely not blame." ”

"There is no such elixir...... How could there be such a thing? The female emperor said, "Therefore, I have decided to abolish the emperor's false title, and the future king of Japan will be called the king or queen of Japan." From today onwards, I will be Queen Mingzheng! ”

That's it?

The ministers simply don't believe their ears!

When things get to this point, can they really be solved so easily? If the empress is replaced by a queen, will the Ming Dynasty be able to give up? Will the Tokugawa family be able to spare the imperial court?

The Tokugawa family's 100,000 Kamiro army will obediently retreat?

Tokugawa Mitsukuni said loudly: "Your Royal Highness, the Celestial Empire has not only sent envoys, but also sent an army of land and water. ”

Queen Meisho smiled, "As long as the imperial court and the shogunate can be united, there is no difficulty that cannot be handled. What do you think? ”

"Her Royal Highness is right," Mitsukuni said with a smile, "but I don't know how the imperial court and the shogunate should be united?" ”

The queen said: "The widow queen has no husband, if you can choose a man with outstanding intelligence from the Tokugawa family as the royal husband, then won't the court and the shogunate be united?" After the imperial court and the shogunate were united, was it possible to negotiate with the Celestial Empire without success? ”

"This ......" Tokugawa Mitsukuni seemed to fall into deep thought, and after a while, he just muttered, "I don't know who is the smartest in the Tokugawa family?" ”

The queen smiled and looked at the stupid Tokugawa ietsuna, "Gongfang, will you come here?" Who is the smartest in the Tokugawa family? Who is the most suitable husband for a widow? ”

Tokugawa Ietsuna smiled stupidly: "Of course, the smartest person in the Tokugawa family is Mito Daiyan, and the most suitable person to be the prince should be him, right?" ”

The ministers were stunned by what was happening in front of them!

Did your cousins and brothers (Queen Meisho is the cousin of Tokugawa Mitsukuni) have long colluded to plot to usurp the throne together? The public side is also stupid, how can this adulterer Y woman succeed?
