Yun Xi returned to the Qianqing Palace, took out the general plan of what he wanted to accomplish, and said to himself: "The opening of the sea in Shanghu County should be almost ready, Lian Zining has sent the officials who have entered the stream and those who have not entered the stream, and it is time to open the sea in two days." Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

"If there are some changes to the imperial examination, as well as the addition of a few officials at the grassroots level, let's put it until the first year of the establishment of the industry next year. These days, I have implemented a lot of new policies, and I still give the bureaucracy a time to digest. ”

"Then the fastest thing that can be completed in my hands now is the affairs of North Korea."

"In addition, there is also the matter of receiving the envoys of the vassal kingdom to hurry, it has dragged on for too long."

"When you finish meeting with the envoys of the vassal state, you will tinker with the technology."

Yun Xi's calculation had been decided, and he said to Wang Xi: "Call Qin Song and Yang Ben, the host and guest of the Ministry of Rites, to come over." ”

It didn't take long for the two to arrive. Yun Xi asked: "Qin Qing, Yang Qing, how is the matter in North Korea, did the North Korean envoy agree?" ”

Qin Song said with a happy face: "Your Majesty, the minister is about to come and talk to Your Majesty." It's already done. ”

Yun Xi asked, "It's done?" They all agreed? How? ”

Qin Song motioned to Yang Ben. Yang Ben met Yun Xi for the first time today, he was very nervous, his clothes were soaked with sweat, and he was stunned and didn't know what to say.

Yun Xi saw that he was nervous, deliberately soothed the atmosphere, and said with a smile: "Why is Qing Khan?" This is an imitation of what Emperor Wen of Wei said when Cao Pi first saw Zhong Yu.

Yang Ben really said casually: "I was trembling and sweating. Then he realized that the conversation between himself and Yunxi was repeating the dialogue in "The World Speaks a New Language", and he suddenly felt a little funny, and his nervous thoughts were suddenly relieved a lot.

Yun Xi asked, "Why did the Korean envoy agree so easily?" ”

Yang Ben said: "Chen has been in Jinyiwei for several years, and he is good at predicting his thoughts through the slightest movement of people. ”

"When the minister was talking with the Korean envoy, on the first day, when the Korean envoy Kim Han Lao heard the minister's words, he immediately said a great reason, and then did not talk to the minister."

"But the next day, the minister wanted to postpone for a day, but Ahn Sung-jun, the vice envoy of the Korean state, secretly came to consult with the minister."

"Two days later, the Korean envoy met with the minister again, although he still said that he did not accept it, and he did not make a hurry, but the minister's arms were sweaty, the cuffs were soaked, and there was a mistake in touching the island teacup."

Therefore, the minister concluded that it must not be as easy as it seemed, so he still did not hurry. Finally, the Korean envoy said: "The minister does not dare to be exclusive, so please send an envoy from the Celestial Empire to return home with the minister to inform our monarch." ’”

Yun Xi smiled and said: "If you are really not in a hurry, why do you want our country to send an envoy to follow him to North Korea?" Why didn't he send someone back to ask for instructions, and then report to me after getting the results? It can be seen that it is very urgent. ”

Qin Song said: "Maybe Master Li, who has the right to know the state affairs of North Korea, has given a death order, and he must be canonized by my Ming Dynasty." ”

Yun Xi said, "Since they ask for it, then send someone to go with them." ”

Then he turned his head to Yang Ben and said: "Yang Qing will be the envoy, and Li Fangyuan will be canonized, no, Zhu Fangyuan will be the holy decree of the monarch of North Korea." ”

Yang Ben knew that he was transferred to the main guest Shiro in order to solve this matter, so he bowed down and replied, "Yes, Your Majesty." ”

Yun Xi said: "Later, I will let Zhongshu draft the purpose. And you go and spread the word, and tomorrow I will receive the envoys from all over the land. Then let Yang Ben step down.

After that, Yunxi asked Qin Song: "How did Chang Mao's son appear in the capital, have you found out?" ”

Qin Song said: "The minister is incompetent, and it has not been completely investigated. ”

Yun Xi knows that Jinyiwei's strength is not strong now, and he is still in the period of slow recovery; And the Chang family is also a big tree with deep roots in the capital, so don't be harsh.

So Yun Xi said: "Don't worry, check slowly." ”

However, the more Yun Xi was like this, the more Qin Song felt that he was incompetent. If you can't find it out for the time being outside the capital, you can defend it, but in the capital, it's really too incompetent.

Qin Song's face flushed and said, "The minister will find out within three days!" ”

Yun Xi saw him like this, and knew that if he persuaded him again, it would be counterproductive, so he said, "Okay, then I will wait for your good news!" ”

=====================================================

In the hall of the Ministry of Rites, An Chengjun said to Jin Hanlao: "Will the king agree to change his surname to Zhu?" An Chengjun was very worried that in case Li Fangyuan was annoyed and angry, he cut him down. As for sending troops for each battle, it is not particularly important.

Jin Han Lao paced around the room and said, "How do I know! But, well, let Your Highness decide for yourself. ”

"You go and tell Yang Ben, the envoy of the Ming Dynasty, that you will leave for China tomorrow."

"Your Highness is almost overwhelmed. Most of the feudal lords in various places are unwilling to recognize the throne of His Royal Highness, and the taxes of the imperial court are not enough to support them. ”

"This is no longer the time to calculate, spend the least amount of time to return to the capital, and let His Highness make his own decisions!"

However, although Jin Hanlao said so, he was sure that Li Fangyuan would definitely agree, because he had no choice! If you don't agree, just wait to come to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to eat and die.

=====================================================

What was written in Samarkand, or Manhara, the envoy of the Timurid Empire.

I saw that his notebook was written in Turkic: "They (the officials of the specified empire) did not allow us to walk around the city at will, so it is difficult for me to know the specific way of life of their people." But as far as I can see by chance, commerce is not well developed in this country, and most people make a living from farming. ”

"Commercially, it is unbelievable that their state has a monopoly on all foreign trade and does not allow private foreign trade. And in a very peculiar way. It is done in the form of other small countries giving goods to the Ming Kingdom, and the monarch of the Ming Kingdom gives back the goods. But the new emperor seems to want to change that. ”

"In terms of religion, the Ming people were relatively tolerant, allowing Buddhism to spread at the same time as Taoism, a religion native to the Ming Kingdom. However, because the Mongols ruled that Allah had a higher status than the rest, their people were more disgusted with Allah, although this was all a Mongol problem. ”

In addition, the customs of the True God religion are different from those of the locals, which makes it more difficult for the locals to believe in Allah. As far as I know, the True God Cult spread here hundreds of years ago and was not completely banned, but I don't see much difference in their habits from the rest of the local people in the so-called Hui gathering areas, and they even eat shuo meat. ”

"In the future, if the empire conquers this land, in order for the greatness of Allah to spread to every corner here, it can only carry out massacres and physically exterminate those who are unwilling to change their habits. Then find those who truly believe in Allah from among the remaining people to support them, and then assimilate the rest. ”

……

"As for the political system, the new emperor seems to want to bring the whole country back to the way it was more than a thousand years ago, and although it will reduce his power, he thinks it will make the country better."

"Frankly, this is very beneficial for the rule of the frontier regions, but there have been many rebellions in their country where a similar system has been practiced throughout history, just like we do. So it's not clear whether this is good or bad, and I'm very hopeful that I'll see the results in the future, but unfortunately it's not possible. ”

"As I said last time, their academic community is looking within itself for the reasons why the country was destroyed by the Mongols more than a hundred years ago. It's really interesting. Because I don't quite understand what they quote from people from two thousand years ago, I don't know what they have achieved or not. ”

……

"As for the most important question, the question of how the new emperor will be, because I have not yet met the emperor who is only nineteen years old, I cannot fully judge. However, it is difficult for such a young emperor to take over the entire empire in all feudal countries (not feudal in history textbooks), but it is very smooth in the eastern countries. This is something we can learn from. ”

"But for now, I can still judge a little from some of the decrees that he has issued when he succeeds to the throne. At present, he has issued many new decrees, but apart from feudalism, nothing else touches on the particularly sensitive parts of the officials, on the contrary, he has introduced many policies to protect all aspects of the officials' lives. ”

It can be seen that this emperor did not approve of some of the decrees of the previous emperor and wanted to change, but he was very cautious and very smart. I suspect that some of the decrees he has now issued that are not taken seriously by Ming officials are paving the way for large-scale reforms in the future, and that he will continue to carry out reforms after the ministers he personally appointed are firmly established in their departments. ”

Manraha was about to continue writing, when Feisi walked in and said in Turkic: "Manlaha, I have good news for you, the emperor of the Ming Kingdom has agreed to receive us tomorrow. ”

Man Raha threw down his pen and said in Turkic: "That's really great, I can finally observe the young emperor of the Ming Kingdom up close." ”

Then Manraha said, "But I still have to warn you that you will not enter my room without my permission in the future." ”

Fei Si said: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm happy because the emperor of the Ming Kingdom is finally willing to receive us, and I have no other intentions. ”

"And you're so defensive mainly because of your record. I've been here these days, and not a single one of them understands Turkic, so you can rest assured. ”

Manraha still said: "Then you still have to be on guard. Also, you don't know Chinese, how did you find out about this? ”

Fei Si replied: "Although I don't know Chinese, I know Mongolian, and there are too many Mongolian translators here, and I learned about it by speaking Mongolian to them." ”

Man Raha said, "Okay, let's start preparing to meet the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom tomorrow." ”
