Chapter 203: The Prince's Wrath
At noon the next day, Shen Weijing received news from President Konishi: he could go to visit the two princes.
After Shen Weijing got the news, he rushed to visit the two princes alone, but he did not inform the other two Ming ministers and envoys Xu Yiyi and Xie Yongzi about the matter. Regarding the two peace envoys recommended by Li Rusong, Shen Weijing didn't understand it, and second, he didn't want the other party to interfere in his own affairs with the two princes.
After learning the lessons of the first two times when the enemy took the prince away, the Japanese army in Wangjing City strengthened the supervision of the two Korean princes. The two are now being held in the main hall of the Korean Jongmyo Temple.
The Ukita Hideya family dispatched nearly 10,000 elite soldiers and strong generals to surround the temple of Nuodae almost impassable.
Dozens of Japanese ninjas lurked day and night in various halls and other hidden corners of the temple, closely monitoring the wind and grass in the temple. Without the consent of the Ukita Hideya, no one is allowed to step into the temple without permission.
With the personal escort of Governor Konishi and the token of the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army, Ukita Hideya, Shen Weijing successfully entered the heavily guarded Joseon Jongmyo.
At this time, the two princes were sitting on the stone edge under the verandah in front of the main hall of the Jongmyo Temple. Around the two of them, dozens of Japanese soldiers with guns were closely watching the movements of the two princes and the surrounding situation.
Konishi Yukicho is not only proficient in the Korean language, but also has a business experience in the Ming Dynasty in his early years, which also enables him to basically understand the Ming language. Therefore, this time to visit the two princes, President Konishi took the initiative to act as a translator for Shen Weijing and the two Korean princes.
After listening to President Konishi's introduction to Shen Weijing's identity, Linhaijun, who was squinting his eyes and basking in the sun, instantly came to his senses, and he completely ignored the large number of Japanese people at the scene, and even asked Shen Weijing directly: "Envoy of the Heavenly Empire, can you save our brother?" ”
Shunhe-kun was not as arrogant and rude as his elder brother Linhai-kun, and after hearing that Governor Konishi had introduced Shen Weijing's identity, he quickly stood up from the stone edge and bowed respectfully to Shen Weijing. And Linhai-kun sat rudely in place.
"Which of you two is Linhai-kun? Who is Shunhe-kun? Introduce yourself. Lin Haijun's impolite performance made Shen Weijing very unhappy, he ignored Lin Haijun's question, but said in a lazy tone.
"I'm Linhai-kun. Father must have mentioned me to you. It was only then that Linhai-kun stood up, squeezed in front of Shunhe-kun, and introduced himself.
"Don't ask, then you are Shunhe-kun." Shen Weijing did not look at Linhaijun directly, but crossed Linhaijun's shoulder, looked at the thin Shunhejun and said.
"Exactly. The mission is responsible for discussions and important missions, but he is thinking about our brothers in his busy schedule. We are so grateful. Please bow down to me. "Shunhe-kun's words are much more decent than his brother Linhai-kun.
"Yes, yes, yes. Please bow down to my brothers. Seeing that his younger brother gave Shen Weijing a salute, Linhai Jun also rushed to help learn from Shunhejun and salute Shen Weijing.
"I don't think you two look alike at all. Not only does they not look alike, but even their attitude towards people is quite different. Oh, it's really a dragon giving birth to nine sons, each of them is different. Shen Weijing deliberately squinted his eyes and glanced at Lin Haijun, obviously there was something in his words.
"My brother speaks straightforwardly, and if he offends the superiors, he still hopes for a lot of Haihan." Shun Hejun saw that Shen Weijing was unhappy because of some inappropriate words and deeds of Linhaijun, so he hurriedly replaced
Linhaijun apologized to Shen Weijing.
Lin Haijun didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his words and deeds, and when he heard Shun Hejun's words, he looked at Shun Hejun with some puzzlement.
"You brothers, hehe, it's fun." Shen Weijing looked at Lin Haijun's unstingy appearance, then patted Lin Haijun on the shoulder, and said to the two princes wittily.
"Poor, is my father in good health? It's all because I can't wait for him to be angry, so that his old man will remember. Shunhejun asked Shen Weijing.
"It's good, I can eat and drink. Well, you're a pretty good kid, you're like this, and you can always think about your father. Good boy, I see that you are weak, sit down and talk. Obviously, for the two princes, Shun Hejun's performance was even more satisfactory to Shen Weijing.
"No, I don't. How can I sit down in vain when I am standing on a mission? Shunhejun resolutely did not sit.
"Go, go inside and move some chairs out." Governor Konishi, who was standing on the side, ordered to several Japanese soldiers beside him.
After a while, several Japanese soldiers moved their chairs out. Shen Weijing, Konishi Yukicho and the two princes sat on the stone path in front of the main hall of the temple and continued to talk.
"Superior, I wonder if my father can set up a son? Isn't it me? As soon as the four of them sat down, Lin Haijun couldn't wait to ask.
Lin Haijun was the eldest of all the princes, and now, although he was a captive of the Japanese people, he was always worried about the canonization of the throne of the prince.
Regarding Linhaijun's question, Shen Weijing didn't want to tell the other party the truth. But he saw that President Konishi was also looking at him intently, and seemed to be very concerned about this issue. So, Shen Weijing changed his mind and said to Linhaijun: "Your father has appointed your younger brother Guanghaijun as the son of the prison country. ”
Shen Weijing deliberately let President Konishi hear the news. In Shen Weijing's opinion, since the king of Joseon has already set up another son, the weight of the two Korean princes in front of him in the eyes of the Japanese people is not so heavy, which will be helpful to persuade the Japanese people to release the two princes in the future.
"Father, you're so unfair! As your eldest son, no matter how you say that the position of the son of the world should be mine. Why did you give it to the third child? Hearing the news that he was not a candidate for the prince, Lin Haijun completely ignored his current situation and cried.
"Big brother, since my father designated the third brother as the son, there must be a reason for him. As a prince, you need to be mindful of who you are. If you cry like this, won't you let the bad guys laugh. The Japanese people will also look down on us. Shunhejun couldn't stand Linhaijun's inappropriate behavior, he quietly pulled Linhaijun's placket and whispered.
"I don't care. Anyway, I don't even have a son now, so I don't care if I am a son or not. I just feel that my father has been looking at me unpleasantly. Why is that? Although I am not the son of my father, I am also the eldest son. How can the third child be virtuous? Is he better than me? Lin Haijun's emotions were out of control, and he completely ignored Shun Hejun's persuasion and the particularity of today's occasion, and continued to cry and complain.
"Oh, how can everything go as you wish in this world, what's wrong with the boss? can't set up a son, and you don't have to listen to the third child. Alright, resign yourself to your fate. Seeing Linhaijun's skinny appearance, Shen Weijing was ready to add another fire to him, so that he could further show his rogue and skinny nature in front of President Konishi, so as to further strengthen President Konishi's disgust with Linhaijun.
"Resignation? I accept my fate, but fate does not recognize me. Sixth, do you think that eldest brother and I are not the material for the world? Lin Haijun was further enraged by Shen Weijing's words, and he turned to Shunhejun and asked.
"Alright, big brother. I think you and the third brother can be the son of the world. As long as the father is assured, we will obey as sons. Shun Hejun didn't want to talk about family affairs in front of outsiders, so he said to Linhaijun with some impatience.
"You are right, you are the sixth, and of course you have no desire for the position of the prince. But I can't, I'm the boss. In any case, the position of the son of this world should be mine. No, I'm going to fight. Sixth, as long as you stand with me. Let's brothers work together. In the future, once I regain the position of son, I will definitely remember you. Well, let's form an alliance. ”
"Big brother. If you do this, won't I help your brother kill each other? Alright, don't talk about it anymore. Let's think about the situation at the moment. ”
"Yes, the eldest prince who has not become a prince in the world, you are still sober and sober, let's see where you are now." Shen Weijing teased Linhaijun.
"It seems that the eldest prince is very interested in the position of the prince, you can rest assured, as long as you cooperate with us well, not to mention the position of the prince, it is the throne of the Joseon Dynasty, maybe we will help you get it." Governor Konishi said to Linhai-kun.
"Really? Can you really help me? Linhai-kun seemed to grasp the last straw, looked at Konishi Yukichang and asked urgently.
"Of course. We've always been talkative. Konishi said.
"Okay, I'll work with you well." Linhaijun promised Konishi Yukicho.
"Big brother, you have to know what you're saying now! Don't you think about what the nature of what you are doing? A docile Shunwa-kun was completely enraged by Rinkai-kun's clumsy performance after hearing the temptation thrown by Konishi Yukinaga, and he stood up sharply and glared at Rinkai-kun.
"Okay, Sixth Prince, I can see your performance today. There's something I want to tell you, just be yourself. As for some people, they don't care about etiquette, righteousness, and shame, and it's useless for you to persuade them a hundred times. Let him go. Shen Weijing originally wanted to take advantage of Linhaijun's clumsy words and deeds to make Konishi Yukichang look down on his use value. Unexpectedly, President Konishi seized the fact that Linhaijun wanted to be the prince of the world, and successfully pulled Linhaijun into the camp of the Japanese people. Shen Weijing was completely disappointed in Lin Haijun.
"Alright. I think that's the end of today's meeting. Brother Shen, do you have anything else to say? Konishi stood up.
"No more. Being able to meet the two princes is also an explanation to the king of Joseon. And thank you, brother, for giving me this opportunity. Shen Weijing stood up and said to President Konishi in Chinese.
"Escort the two princes back to their rooms. Good student care. Governor Konishi ordered the Japanese soldiers beside him.
"Thank you for coming to visit." Shunhejun said politely to Shen Wei.
Shen Weijing didn't speak, and waved his hand to Shunhejun, who was escorted by the Japanese soldiers to the main hall of the Zongmiao.
"Tell my father, I hope he will think about my sonship again." At the moment when he was about to be escorted into the door, Lin Haijun turned his head and shouted loudly to Shen Weijing.
Shen Weijing pursed his lips at Lin Haijun's back with disdain.
