Li said: "It is not wrong that the three highnesses recruited hundreds of thousands of displaced people, but the total number of soldiers is only two or three hundred thousand.

According to Admiral Zheng's return to Xinming Island, it is estimated that in another half a year, these soldiers should be transported, after all, the fleet under Admiral Zheng's command has enough capacity.

Half a year later, when the soldiers are all transported, it will inevitably be the people who will operate at that time, but I am afraid that Your Majesty will also add fuel to the fire, and it is estimated that there will be more people who will come at that time, not only the displaced people recruited by His Highness at the beginning. ”

Li Hongji said: "Your Majesty will rest assured that so many people will go to sea?" ”

Li Guo asked rhetorically, "Why don't you worry?" Now which of the people of the Ming Dynasty does not regard His Majesty as a god? The more people who go to sea, the more secure your Majesty's control over overseas lands will be, so why not?

In addition, since the Ming Dynasty fought the Apocalypse to the present, there have been continuous disasters and famines, how many have occurred in the seventh year of the Apocalypse and the first year of Chongzhen?

The relocation of people is also a solution. ”

Li Hongji suddenly realized at this time, and he didn't ask anymore at the moment, anyway, his brain is not as good as Li Guo's, and Li Guo can't harm himself, these interests are shared with himself, and he will listen to Li Guo's opinions more in the future.

Li Hongji took Li Guo to start preparing how to build a barbarian army, and then instructed or simply went into battle himself, and took these barbarians to pacify the other barbarians on the island - in short, to let the barbarians slowly form a group.

Then His Royal Highness the King of Tang, King Qin, and King Qing led the army to completely pacify it.

The people from all walks of life in Xinming Island are each accomplishing their own goals with different thoughts, and Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty is thinking about another thing.

There's something wrong with the Japanese island of Kyushu, or the island of Kyushu in the Ming Dynasty.

This may also be the first case of serious injury that has occurred overseas in the Ming Dynasty so far, or the first case of serious injury that has been officially recorded.

A merchant who went to Kyushu Island had his arm cut off by a ronin samurai left behind on Kyushu Island because of a dispute with someone.

Shi Fenglai's ability is indeed not covered, or there are no people who can mix in the high-level in the eunuch party.

At least the ronin who cut off the arm of the Ming merchant was caught before he even lasted a day.

And the disposal method chosen by Shi Fenglai is very simple, and it is also in line with Emperor Chongzhen's taste.

This ronin was sentenced to death, which Emperor Chongzhen always thought was the punishment of Ling Chi.

But now there is a very simple after-effect.

It's very painful to cut that ronin with a thousand cuts, but the consequences are also very headaches.

The Japanese side is not satisfied, and the result of this matter is somewhat unacceptable - even if it is a knife cut, why should it be punished so severely?

And even if it is punished according to the law of the Ming Dynasty, it shouldn't be punished like Ling Chi, right?

Are you Governor Shi really all fools on my Japanese side, and there is no one who understands the laws of the Great Ming?

Shi Fenglai's way of dealing with it was extremely simple and rude, so that even Emperor Chongzhen couldn't believe that this was something that a person like Shi Fenglai who had been a cabinet assistant could do, and even more like Zhang Zhiji, a martial artist could do it.

Ya directly focused on the key points of Chen Bing on Kyushu Island, and at the same time put the sailor in a posture of receiving the people of Daming to return to Daming at any time.

And for the envoys sent by the shogunate to hold accountable in the past, Shi Fenglai's attitude was even more simple and rude: "Since this place is rented to my Ming Dynasty, how to ask the case will naturally be handled by my Ming official, and it has nothing to do with your country!" ”

The envoy Hojo Kikujiro, who was sent by Tokugawa Hidetada, was angry for a while, and after a long time, he said angrily: "But that ronin is a national of my Japan!" ”

Shi Fenglai replied extremely scoundrelly: "So what? He committed a crime on the island of Kyushu leased by my Daming, and it should be dealt with by my Daming.

Don't say that Kyushu Island is my Ming concession, even if it is not, where can the people who hurt my Ming people flee to? ”

After finishing speaking, Shi Fenglai arched his hand in the direction where the Ming Jingshi was located, and then said: "I, the Holy Son of Heaven of the Ming Dynasty, there are barbarians who hurt my Ming people, and the poor search of the world should also be brought to justice!" ”

Shi Fenglai's words were sonorous and powerful, and even the Ming side above the hall was applauding, regardless of the civil and military officials, only the face of the envoy Hojo Kikujiro was pale.

After Shi Fenglai threw the messenger in the lobby extremely rudely and turned back to the mansion by himself, Hojo Kikujiro's face was no longer readable.

Even in Japan, Kikujiro Hojo can be regarded as a figure with a head and a face - at least people have names and surnames.

In Japan, ordinary untouchables are not eligible to have a surname or an official name.

Hojo Kikujiro returned to the accommodation arranged by Shi Fenglai with a blushing face—not a big, and somewhat simple accommodation.

As soon as he went back, a young man dressed in a green coat and a small hat came over to find Hojo Kikujiro, bowed down and said, "My lord has invited a messenger to go and meet." ”

Although Hojo Kikujiro was angry, he had not completely lost his mind, and knew that there must be something strange when a little guy came to the door at this time, so he immediately asked, "I don't know who your master is?" ”

The little servant's respectful expression remained unchanged, but he responded: "Who is my master, forgive the little one for being inconvenient to say, your envoy will naturally know after he arrives." ”

Kikujiro Hojo couldn't help but feel a little suspicious in his heart, but he couldn't suppress his curiosity to know who invited him.

After turning around and getting rid of a few eyeliner that seemed to be watching, Hojo Kikujiro followed the little guy to a house that was obviously an ordinary house.

However, what was waiting for him was not a Ming Dynasty official as Hojo Kikujiro thought, but a young man in the same green coat and hat.

It's just that although this young man is just standing there quietly waiting for him, the momentum of Yuan Yue Zhi is not to be underestimated.

This young man, Hojo Kikujiro knew, after all, from beginning to end, this young man had been standing behind the governor of the Ming Kingdom.

It is estimated that he is not a close confidant of the governor of the Ming Kingdom, and he must have a certain identity, and he cannot be a nameless person.

When the man in Tsing Yi saw Hojo Kikujiro coming in, he smiled and said, "Mr. Hojo will let me wait for a while." ”

Kikujiro Hojo himself was already holding his breath, how could he give this young man a good face at this time?

Kikujiro Hojo, who had a gloomy face, said, "Haven't asked Your Excellency for your name?" ”

The young man smiled and said: "It's rude under the Xia, the surname is Li, the single name is a rock character, and the family teacher is the Governor of the Ming Dynasty who met with Mr. Hojo today." ”

This young man named Li Yan is really good-natured, and even Hojo Kikujiro can't help but feel broken.

After secretly admiring in his heart, Hojo Kikujiro secretly affirmed his judgment, and kept thinking about what was the purpose of this son named Li Yan inviting him in private? Is it at the behest of the Governor of the Ming Dynasty?

Hojo Kikujiro, who was in a hurry, said with a gloomy face: "Li Gongzi is really young and promising, and the master is not simple, he is really a dragon and phoenix among people." ”

Li Yan smiled: "Mr. Hojo has an overreputation. Li Yan invited Mr. Hojo to come this time, also on the orders of his family teacher. ”

Hojo Kikujiro's face still looked ugly, but he was calculating in his heart, and immediately said in a deep voice: "Today, the commander gave such a big embarrassment to Zai Xia above the lobby, why did he invite a certain person over at this time?" ”

Li Yan sneered and said, "Why should your envoy be so naïve? ”

Hojo Kikujiro's face suddenly turned the color of pig liver, and he said angrily: "What does Li Gongzi mean? Although Hojo is not talented, he is also the envoy of my great Japan, how can you be so teased? ”

Li Yan immediately bowed down and said, "It's rude, I hope Mr. Hojo will forgive me." ”

Seeing that Hojo Kikujiro just snorted coldly, but didn't care about his own meaning, Li Yan continued: "Between countries, how can there be so many scenes of hello and me?"

My father-in-law Ren of the Ming Dynasty and the Tokugawa Shogun of your country have always been friends, so how can the family teacher be an enemy of the shogunate?

It is precisely because the image of the Ming Dynasty is never allowed to be damaged in the slightest, so the family teacher deliberately did so, and it is really a last resort, and I hope Mr. Hojo will know. ”

Hojo Kikujiro's face looked a little better.

Hojo Kikujiro, who had read some Han books, thought he still knew something about the Han people - the great emperor of their time was able to send a large army to conquer a country for the sake of two horses, and naturally he was extremely concerned about the opinions of others.

So Li Yan's words, Hojo Kikujiro believed it.

His face improved a little, and Hojo Kikujiro spoke: "Since your country's father-in-law Ren is friendly with our general, how can you put on a posture of attacking each other?" ”

Li Yan didn't pay attention to Hojo Kikujiro's words, but smiled and stretched out his invitation to the house, and said, "Li Yan has good tea brought from Daming, why don't Mr. Hojo go into the house and taste it together?" ”

Hojo Kikujiro bowed down and said, "Since Li Gongzi is kind to invite, then Hojo is not welcome." ”

Kikujiro Hojo also knew that this was not the place to talk, so he agreed to Li Yan's invitation to come into the house and drink tea.

After entering the house, Li Yan set up the tea sets one by one, took water to make tea, and then said with a smile: "Mr. Hojo can taste it, this Ming tea is soaked in the spring water on Kyushu Island, it is really delicious." ”

Hojo Kikujiro smiled: "Haiyi, what Li Gongzi said is true. ”

After drinking two or three teas, Li Yan said with a smile: "Li Yan invited Mr. Hojo here today, he was really ordered by his family teacher to discuss the matter of the ronin samurai. ”

Hojo Kikujiro's face turned cloudy again, and he said with a cold face: "What else is there to say?" People have been cut by you with a thousand cuts. ”

Li Yan ignored Hojo Kikujiro's face, and said to himself anyway: "The deceased is gone, and it's not worth it to have any disputes because of him, what does Mr. Hojo think?" ”

Hojo Kikujiro said angrily: "So what? Where has your behavior left me in Japan? ”

Li Yan smiled and said, "Mr. Hojo, don't be angry, why don't you discuss the aftermath?" Now there is tension between you and me, but it is not a long-term solution? ”

Hojo Kikujiro's face softened a little, and he said: "What Li Gongzi said is right, if the confrontation continues like this, it is not a good thing for both you and me, and it is the people who suffer the most." ”

Li Yan nodded and responded: "What Mr. Hojo said is extremely true, people are not allowed to go out to sea to fish, and it will be difficult to maintain their livelihood, but it is really not a long-term solution. ”

Hojo Kikujiro was a little more interested in what Li Yan could say at this time, and immediately asked, "What about what about Li Gongzi's opinion?" ”

The two sides tacitly avoided topics such as Emperor Daming, Shi Fenglai, and the Japanese shogunate, and began to talk about them as their respective identities.

Li Yan raised the teacup again and said to Hojo Kikujiro, "Mr. Hojo, please." ”

After waiting for Hojo Kikujiro to drink the tea in the cup, Li Yan said with a smile: "Since my father-in-law of the Ming Dynasty is friendly with General Tokugawa, and General Tokugawa appointed Mr. as the envoy of the envoy, presumably Mr. Hojo also knows something?" ”

Kikujiro Hojo chuckled, "It's just some fukuju ointment and spirits and the like, what's the big deal?" ”

Li Yan changed his face and said with a wry smile: "Li Yan is not as casual as Mr. Hojo, these two things are forbidden in Daming. ”

With a straight face, Li Yan said: "Mr. Hojo should know that this Fushou paste has been used by the royal family since ancient times, and it is naturally strictly forbidden to enter the people.

As for this spirit, I can't hide it, I have a great drought in Shaanxi, and the grain has been in decline year after year, and there are many droughts and floods in other places, and this spirit is really hard to get.

If it weren't for the fact that Gonggong Ren won the trust of His Majesty and had an excellent friendship with Tokugawa Shogun, how could he dare to take the risk of the Zhujiu clan to get these two things?

In other words, even if you get these two things, the income from the sale of the Great Self and the Ming Dynasty is much higher than the income from the transportation of thousands of miles to your country. ”

Hojo Kikujiro immediately made a sudden look, bowed down and said: "It's Hojo who is abrupt, I don't know that Daming is so difficult." ”

Regarding Hojo Kikujiro's words, Li Yan couldn't wait to hack him to death directly - what situation does Daming need you to sympathize with a Japanese slave?

His mother!

Li Yanqiang, who was not in an extremely unhappy mood, suppressed the anger in his heart, and secretly scolded himself for learning badly after mixing with Emperor Chongzhen for too long in the Ming Dynasty.

After settling down, Li Yan continued: "It's just the death of a ronin warrior, and it wasn't a big deal originally, but my father-in-law Ren of the Ming Dynasty also knew about it, but he was extremely concerned." ”

Hearing Li Yan talk about Ren's father-in-law, Hojo Kikujiro was also moved in his heart, and secretly said that he finally got to the point.

Li Yan said with a smile: "Father-in-law Ren sent someone to pass the news, saying that no matter what, it can't affect his old man's friendship with Tokugawa Shogun, let alone the implementation of tomorrow's friendship treaty." ”

Hojo Kikujiro secretly cursed in his heart that the person in front of him was shameless, and the dead eunuch in the capital of the Ming Kingdom was even more shameless!

What is said in order not to affect friendship, not to affect the friendship treaty, in fact, it is not to affect the interests of Fushou ointment and spirits!
