Chapter 687: Selling Sons and Daughters, Who Gets Cheap and Who Suffers?
King Gomizuo, formerly known as Emperor Gomizuo, now known as Gomizuo Taijo, alias Masahito, is the third prince of Emperor Goyosei, and his mother is the female Gogoe Maeko, who belongs to the 108th emperor in the lineage of emperors of Wa Kingdom.
Masahito's relationship with Tokugawa Iemitsu is a bit complicated.
Yu Gong, Masahito was the king of the Wa Kingdom, and Tokugawa Iemitsu was the shogun of the shogunate, and they belonged to the relationship between the monarch and the minister.
Yu private, Masahito's main palace wife Tokugawa Kazuko is the younger sister of Tokugawa Iemitsu, and Tokugawa Iemitsu is Masahito's brother-in-law.
The problem is that in the sixth year of Kanei, that is, in the second year of Taiming Chongzhen, Tokugawa Iemitsu actually sent his nurse Kasuga Bureau to meet the emperor - because the Kasuga Bureau had no official position but went to meet Emperor Gomizuo, Emperor Gomizuo considered it a great shame, and felt that the shogunate did not take his authority seriously, and was forced to go to the title of emperor, so he could only be called the king of the Wa Kingdom, and Masahito simply passed the throne to his own daughter Prince Kokonai, who was only seven years old, in the same year, and became the regent of Taishang.
However, no matter how aggrieved he was, Masahito still had to come to Kyushu Island to meet the Ming Emperor.
Masahito also knew very well in his heart that the only possibility that he would not come was that the emperor lineage of the eternal line would end in his own hands.
It is impossible for Tokugawa Iemitsu to show mercy to the current king because he is his niece, and it is even more impossible for the Ming dynasty to be spared from conquest because the lord of the Wa Kingdom is only seven years old.
How big the gap between the two countries is now, Masahito can see it very clearly, so Masahito pinched his nose and came to Kyushu Island.
Lifting the curtain and glancing at the Governor's Mansion of Kyushu Island not far away, a strange feeling suddenly rose in Masahito's heart.
The dignified Japanese emperor, the imperial palace is not as good as a governor's palace, which makes the imperial family, known as the first of all generations, embarrassed......
After a deep sigh, Masahito spoke: "Now, all our hopes can only be placed on Xingzi. ”
Nakamiya Tokugawa Kazuko reached out and shook Masahito's hand, and sighed: "Xingzi is a girl, how can she afford such a big country?" You don't know what kind of character my brother is. ”
Masahito said with a gloomy face: "Tokugawa Iemitsu can ignore me, or he can act recklessly in Japan, but does he dare to offend Daming?" ”
Kazuko Tokugawa gasped and said, "What do you want to do?" Xingzi is just a child! She's only seven years old! ”
Zhengren still had a cold face, almost gritted his teeth and said, "Of course I know that she is only seven years old, and I never thought of giving her to the Ming Emperor."
However, Emperor Daming still has a son, it's really not good, Daming will also have various palace clans, they will always have a prince and brother of the right age, since Xingzi was born in the royal family, he should sacrifice for the royal family! ”
Tokugawa Kazuko's expression changed greatly, if it weren't for the restrictions because the carriage was too small, I was afraid that Tokugawa Kazuko would have stood up in shock: "You are playing with fire!" Of course, my brother can't mess with Da Ming, but what kind of good person will Da Ming be? Don't you see what Kyushu looks like now? ”
Masahito's face showed a ruthless color, and his face became a little distorted: "No matter how bad it is, how bad can it be?" She is already a king and will be a king in the future, but Koko, and her children, will be the true masters of Japan! ”
Kazuko Tokugawa suddenly collapsed in her seat and muttered, "Crazy, crazy." My brother is crazy, and so are you! You're pushing Japan to a place of no return! ”
Zhengren snorted coldly and scolded: "Woman's opinion! If I don't marry the son of the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom, or other clans, will they think about Japan for me?
All the authority is in the hands of the shogunate, and although it is up to me to abolish it, but Xingzi's edict can get out of the palace without your brother's nod? ”
……
Along the way, until the car of Masahito and his wife entered the governor's palace, Masahito did not say a word, only Tokugawa and Zi kept muttering something.
Whether Zhengren can eat Lu cuisine or not, Emperor Chongzhen doesn't know, and he is not interested in knowing, as long as he likes to eat it, who will care if Zhengren likes it or not.
As soon as the authentic Lu cuisine was served, Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile: "Zhengren Aiqing might as well taste this Lu cuisine, even if it is in my Ming Dynasty, this Lu cuisine is also on the table, not to mention, this wine banquet is the chef and ingredients specially found by the people of my life from Shandong, Aiqing can taste it alive." ”
When Zhengren heard this, he immediately bowed respectfully: "Minister, thank Your Majesty for your grace." ”
Shen Hao was far away, and quietly pouted - no one wanted to be embarrassed!
Emperor Chongzhen means that Lao Tzu is here, if you have the eyesight to see, you have to know that follow Lao Tzu, be obedient, and the benefits will be indispensable to you.
Zhengren said that he was very well-behaved, he knew each other very well, as long as the boss was happy.
This kind of confrontation between words has never been liked by today's son, and I don't know what kind of madness is being smoked today, and it will actually beat Zhengren.
But it's okay, it's better to beat it than to cut it off on the spot, right?
An authentic Lu cuisine wine banquet, Emperor Chongzhen ate very happily - he was tired of eating any prawns and small shrimp on the sea, and he still ate this Lu cuisine smoothly.
But on Masahito, this banquet tastes a little unsavory.
Until the leftovers were removed, Zhengren first thanked Emperor Chongzhen for the banquet, and then bowed: "Your Majesty, the minister has a reluctant request, I don't know whether to say it or not?" ”
This time, Emperor Chongzhen showed great generosity: "If Aiqing has any requirements, say it as soon as possible." ”
Zhengren said: "Your Majesty, the courtier's daughter Xingzi is seven years old, and she has not yet decided on her family, and the minister thinks privately, please ask Your Majesty to be the master of the minister, choose a good one for Xingzi, and the minister is willing to take the entire Wa Kingdom as a dowry!" ”
Emperor Chongzhen looked at Zhengren with a bewildered face - this wave of operations is quite sassy!
Regarding this request made by Zhengren, Emperor Chongzhen only thought about it for a moment and understood his intentions.
This kind of operation to find a strong husband, those barbarians in the West play very slippery, so that there is a European grandmother and the like.
It's just that for Eastern civilizations, this kind of manipulation has never been very popular.
The country that his ancestors worked so hard to build was so easily taken away by outsiders, and he still has the face to see his ancestors after he dies?
It is precisely because of this that basically no emperor or prince will do this, and it is more important to let his son marry some powerful daughter-in-law, rather than find a husband for his daughter to inherit all this - unless it is a rich man.
However, under normal circumstances, as long as you can eat and get a daughter-in-law, who would choose to be rich?
After all, the matter of entering the rich is nothing in the future generations, and in the current Ming Dynasty, it is really a fatal matter.
During the Qin and Han dynasties, sons-in-law had no human rights, and from time to time you could see statements such as levying and issuing sons-in-law to fill the army.
Even in the Song Dynasty, after the social status of the son-in-law was greatly improved, it was more of a "son-in-law to make up for the generation" and "a son-in-law to provide for the elderly", and the children born were also to follow the woman's surname, and the man also had no real status.
Now Masahito suddenly proposed to let him find a husband for his seven-year-old daughter, and he also wanted to use the entire widow as a dowry, probably for his son.
After sneering in his heart, Emperor Chongzhen squinted his eyes and said: "Zhengren Aiqing's request, I have only thought about it for a long time and found that there are many suitable candidates, but there is a problem among them?" ”
Zhengren bowed again: "Dare to ask Your Majesty, I don't know what is the difficulty?" ”
Emperor Chongzhen said with a smile: "Taking the eldest son of the emperor as an example, his academic talent is first-class, that is, his age, which is just similar to Xingzi, can be said to be a first-class good match."
It's just that the eldest son of the emperor is the king of Liao after all, so how can he enter Japan? The suitable candidates among the other clans must also be difficult to accept the theory of joining the family, so it is difficult to be tight. ”
Zhengren, who had thought of all this for a long time, gritted his teeth, leaned over again and bowed: "Your Majesty, the minister does not dare to ask the prince to enter a small country, and when Xingzi becomes an adult, the minister will let Xingzi give way, if Xingzi can marry into the heavenly family, the minister is willing to take the land of Ezo as a dowry!" ”
When Emperor Chongzhen heard this, he sneered again in his heart, and said lightly: "Since this is the case, I will grant Aiqing's request." Proposed edict, I heard that the lord of the Japanese kingdom Xingzi was gentle and graceful, and the IKEA room was suitable, so he was married to the eldest son of the emperor as a concubine. ”
Isn't Masahito's goal his eldest son?
As long as Xingzi is married to his eldest son, then the current king of the Wa Kingdom, and the future concubine of the Liao King, will naturally have a strong voice - even if it is a small voice, after being amplified by the background of the King of Liao, who dares not to take it seriously?
Didn't you see Tokugawa Iemitsu's face as ugly as eating a fly?
As for the emperor's eldest son, just selling a son, Emperor Chongzhen did this kind of thing, and there was no psychological pressure at all.
The only thing that hurts is that he was originally a father who belonged to Zhengren, and his eldest son married Zhengren's daughter as a princess, isn't this Zhengren the same generation as himself?
sold a son in exchange for Ezo Island, that is, Hokkaido in later generations, this wave should not be a loss.
However, he also fell a generation because of this, and became the same generation as the old thing of Zhengren, so who got the advantage and who suffered?
And Tokugawa Iemitsu, who was sitting in the lobby, was indeed as uncomfortable as eating a fly, but he had to bow along with the others: "Congratulations to the Great Prince, congratulations to His Royal Highness Masahito." ”
After thousands of calculations, Tokugawa Iemitsu didn't calculate that Masahito would play so decisively - taking Ezo Island, which was not in the hands of Japan, as a dowry, and marrying Xingzi, who was just seven years old, to the eldest son of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty!
Theoretically speaking, it is his freedom for Masahito to marry Xingzi to whomever he wants, even if he is married to the eldest son of the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, it will not have much impact on the current Japan.
At the very least, it won't have much impact until Xingzi becomes an adult, and this time is still a full seven years, which is enough to operate in it by himself.
The question is, according to the temperament of the Ming Emperor, will he sit back and watch the seven years pass like this? What do you think about Japan?
Moreover, Da Ming may sit back and watch himself control the Wa Kingdom and let Xingzi become a puppet? It's impossible to think about!
When Xingzi has the right to speak, doesn't it mean that the bastard Masato has the right to speak? What will happen to the Wa Kingdom and the Shogunate at that time? Is there a place to talk yourself?
However, after a long time, Tokugawa Iemitsu didn't come up with any good solutions, almost just came up with one or two ways to break the game, and then was denied by himself.
Because Tokugawa Iemitsu found that no matter what kind of method he came up with, he could hardly get around Xingzi.
If Xingzi is just a simple king of the Wa Kingdom, in fact, it is better to say that he can even be ruthless with his own brother, what is a mere niece?
But the identity of Princess Liao is enough to overwhelm the shogunate - even if she wants to get rid of Xingzi ruthlessly, there is almost no chance!
Not to mention what kind of protection Zhengren will take for Xingzi, who pins all his hopes on Xingzi, the Ming side will send corresponding people to the country.
It is not only to serve, but also to protect, and at the same time to monitor.
It is foreseeable that among these people sent by the Ming Dynasty, there will definitely be all kinds of people, and there will definitely be members of the factory guard.
If you want to get rid of Xingzi under the hands of the factory guard and not leak the news, it is not as easy as replacing the king of the Wa Kingdom of the eternal lineage.
After a headache for a long time, Tokugawa Iemitsu didn't think of any good way - he had a daughter, whose name was Chiyohime, and her age was about the same as Xingzi, so she could have taken advantage of this opportunity to ask to marry the Liao King as a side concubine to restrain her.
However, the problem is that Chiyohime was already engaged to Tokugawa Mitsutomo, the heir of the Owari Tokugawa family, when she was one year old, that is, in the eleventh year of Chongzhen, and she was already married when she was twelve years old......
Thinking of this, Tokugawa Iemitsu couldn't help but secretly hate, why did his daughter marry so early? Isn't it good to be late?
As for the other adopted daughters, Tokugawa Iemitsu really didn't take them to heart.
No matter how many adopted daughters there are, there is a layer of difference between them and Chiyohime in terms of identity, and even worse than Xingzi, expect them to be able to contain Xingzi? Don't dream, the difference in identity is enough to overwhelm them!
Sure enough, as Tokugawa Iemitsu expected, Emperor Chongzhen took a sip of the wine glass before he spoke: "Since Xingzi has been designated as the princess of Liao, all the degrees of application will be supported from the internal treasury of the Ming Dynasty, and the twenty-four yamen and the factory guards will also send corresponding manpower when they turn back." ”
When Zhengren heard this, he was even more happy in his heart, and even bowed down and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Ronen!" ”
Now it's stable, I sold a daughter and Ezo Island, which is not in Japan's hands at all, but in exchange for Daming's full support for Xingzi, it is equivalent to full support for myself, now, look at how Tokugawa Iemitsu fights with himself!
Tokugawa Iemitsu's heart was even more uncomfortable.
PS: Today's sacrifice to "The Military Master is the Master", in addition, today's queen's birthday, the original plan for the three watches was canceled, and it will be made up tomorrow.
