Chapter 546: Angel
"Flat."
Emperor Wanli whispered in his voice, which was still childish, but quite majestic.
"Your Majesty." Including Yu Qiuping, who was self-taught, everyone replied in unison very respectfully. When Yu Qiuping stood up from the ground, he found that Emperor Wanli was staring at his face, and the look on his face became extremely surprised and excited. Then, Emperor Wanli suddenly asked, "Do you have a red leaf shawl?" β
"Back to the emperor, yes." Yu Qiuping replied honestly, not knowing what the meaning of Emperor Wanli's question was, and he was stunned in confusion.
"Mr. Yuqiu, don't you report your life experience to Lord Banzai soon." Seeing that Yu Qiuping was stunned for a long time and didn't speak, and Emperor Wanli also pursed his lips and stared at Yu Qiuping without saying a word, Feng Bao beside him couldn't help but whisper.
"Ah, yes." Yu Qiuping straightened out his thoughts, and hurriedly whispered, "Emperor Qiqi, the grass people were originally from Nanzhili, and their parents were both businessmen, who were exiled to Japan due to wind and waves when they were young, and were taken in by well-wishers. Later, he started a family in Japan, and was appreciated by Caomin's father-in-law and was awarded an official and a half-job. For more than ten years, it has also become a big name. β
"Daimyo?" Emperor Wanli didn't speak, but Feng Bao, who was beside Yu Qiuping, understood the color of Wanli, and asked again in tacit understanding, obviously not very understanding this word.
"Your Majesty, this is the name of Japan." After thinking for a while, Yu Qiuping decided to give an example to explain to Emperor Wanli, "Today's Japan is quite similar to the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States period two thousand years ago. The Emperor, who is the lord of Japan, is quite similar to the Son of Heaven of Zhou, who has been elevated for hundreds of years. The so-called daimyo in Japan is similar to the princes of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, all of whom were kings of the torn land. In today's Japan, the lord of the grass people is as strong as Qin in the last years of the Warring States period, and his power is strong. And the grass people are the princes under him, defending one side for him. β
"That's not what I want to know." However, Emperor Wanli did not seem to be satisfied with Yu Qiuping's explanation, but shook his head and replied in a low voice.
Yu Qiuping was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied again: "Please also ask the emperor for forgiveness." When the grass people went overseas, they were still young, and they couldn't remember their childhood experiences. This time I returned from the westward trip, just because I wanted to visit my childhood hometown, but I didn't want to violate the national law, and asked the emperor to punish him. β
"Can't you really remember where you came from?" Emperor Wanli shook his head again and looked at Yu Qiuping with a meaningful gaze, which really surprised Yu Qiuping.
Is he referring to...
"Companion, take all the people with you and leave." Emperor Wanli whispered to Feng Bao, and at the same time whispered to the shadows, "You all quit too." β
As soon as Emperor Wanli gave an order, dozens of vigorous and skilled players walked out of the shadows in an instant, which really startled Yu Qiuping. Just by looking at it by eye, these people know that all of them are far above Uchiha Aoka, and even Honda Tadakatsu can only match them. And so many people are hiding in the dark, but Yu Qiuping didn't even find a little breath.
"Long live the lord..."Feng Bao was stunned when he heard this, and looked at the young body of Emperor Wanli with some concern, and then at Yu Qiuping, who was tall and tall, and couldn't help but worry.
"It doesn't matter." Emperor Wanli waved his hand, although he was only ten years old, not as old as Yuqiu, but his momentum was quite old. It seems that Ganluo is twelve years old, and it is not a false talk.
"Yes." Feng Bao had no choice but to retreat honestly when he heard this, and before he withdrew from the main hall with his men, Emperor Wanli suddenly spoke again, "Did you bring that package with you?" Then leave that package behind. β
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, and they didn't know why Emperor Wanli had to deliberately instruct such a detail, only Yu Qiuping was alone After hearing this order, a layer of cold sweat instantly broke out on his forehead in the winter.
By the time the footsteps slowly faded away in the silent night, and the door behind him was also closed heavily after the "squeak" sound, Yu Qiuping could already clearly hear the sound of his own heartbeat.
"So, can you tell me about your background?" When everyone had left the main hall, Emperor Wanli asked again. Yu Qiuping did not speak directly, but knelt deeply on the ground, his eyes swaying on the floor in front of him, but he did not dare to look up at Emperor Wanli.
From Emperor Wanli's actions, he had vaguely guessed what he wanted to know about his life experience.
He also suddenly understood why Emperor Wanli sent people to mobilize people to search for him in Nanzhili.
It's just that he doesn't know why anyone in China, thousands of miles away, knows his background and whereabouts.
But now, none of that mattered, because he couldn't hide anymore.
Anyway, counting Haguyi Suizi and the highness behind her, there are at least four people who know this secret, and one more is not too much. What's more, Emperor Wanli seems to have guessed that he is not far from ten.
Yuqiu raised his head slowly, his eyes suddenly moved from the gloomy ground to the light, and the figure of Emperor Wanli was a little trance under the halo, like a god.
"Your Majesty."
"The grass people are from 400 years later."
Β·
I don't know why, after saying this, the first thought in Yu Qiuping's heart was "he will believe it".
What a strange thought.
Anyone who says such a thing will be treated as a madman. Even Imagawa Kaede, who trusted him the most, was surprised for a long time before he believed it after hearing about Yu Qiuping's life experience.
But Yu Qiuping just felt that Emperor Wanli would believe it.
His eyes slowly focused in front of him, and Emperor Wanli's expression gradually became clear. On the face that had not yet grown, there was no surprise or surprise at the moment, but relief and excitement.
He didn't answer, but slowly stood up in the chair and walked towards Yu Qiuping step by step. In this silent hall, the sound of slow footsteps seemed to linger for a century before finally coming to Yu Qiuping.
"It's been ten years, everything is like a dream, and the gods really blessed me."
After Emperor Wanli spit out these words, he bowed down in front of Yu Qiuping without warning, shocking Yu Qiuping at a loss.
"Mortal Zhu Yijun, knock on the angel."
Β·
From November 24 to November 27 in the first year of Wanli (1573), the emperor did not go to court on the grounds that the dragon was sick. Only a few cronies and Empress Dowager Li, Zhang Juzheng and others knew that the emperor had a secret conversation with a mysterious person in the side hall for three days and three nights. From the next day, Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao were also summoned into the palace to participate in secret talks.
This period of history was not included in the "History of the Ming Dynasty" in the 24 History, but in an archaeological discovery in later generations, a copy of the living note of the Wanli Emperor was excavated. In that copy, there are several pages of records that do not appear in the official living notes, and it is written that the Wanli Emperor has appeared in the side hall for the past three days.
This new archaeological discovery immediately detonated the historiographical circles, because the end of the first year of Wanli was the moment of a historic shift in the entire national policy. A large number of scholars investigated the relationship between the emperor's strange whereabouts and this transformation, but found nothing, until the Suizi Notes, which recorded Yu Qiuping's own trip to the Ming Kingdom, were unearthed several years later.
Β·
When he walked out of the Forbidden City, Yu Qiuping woke up from a dream, unable to believe that the experience of the past three days was real.
Even the most absurd legend would not have come up with such a plot, so how could it happen in reality? Yu Qiuping even had extreme doubts that his crossing was also a dream, and when he woke up, he would find him lying on the small bed in his bedroom.
Emperor Wanli dreamed of a time-traveler from the future, dressed in red leaves, with the revelation of the gods, to teach him the heavenly secrets. This dream he has dreamed of every night for as long as he can remember. But it wasn't until recently that he woke up and remembered the contents of the dream, and immediately sent someone to look for Yu Qiuping.
Yu Qiuping can't explain everything in any scientific way. Unexpectedly, he, a time-traveler who believes in science, was shaken when he tried to teach the science of the later life to the people of the previous lifeβcould it be that there really be gods?
However, no matter how mysterious the process was, Yu Qiuping's trip reaped the best results that he could never have dreamed of. He handed over his "Outline of the Future" to the supreme ruler of this empire. And the Wanli Emperor also believed in the truth of this outline - the next day after their secret talk, he had already decided to send someone to assassinate Nurhachi's family. What could be more helpful to the country than to have the supreme ruler carry out a series of top-down reforms according to the outline of the future?
Even Zhang Juzheng and Feng Bao were suspicious of Yu Qiuping, suspecting him of being a liar of the mad demons. However, Yu Qiuping believes that when they verify everything according to what they wrote in their books, they will find that they have absolutely no half of a lie.
Yu Qiuping pinched his face, and the pain on his face told him that it was all real.
"It's like a dream." Yu Qiuping still couldn't help but complain.
Just when Yu Qiuping was stunned, an anxious shout suddenly came from his ears.
"Your Highness! Are you okay! Mori Kolong took the lead and rushed towards Yu Qiuping's side. He was also followed by Tadakatsu Honda, Chiyo Asahinamatsu, Mori Ranmaru and Hoko Hatani, and many people in black could be seen in the distance, and it seemed that they had just been released.
"I'm fine, they don't have to be sorry for you!"
"No, it just took us north and put us under house arrest for a few days." Sen Kelong shook his head, glanced around Yu Qiuping, and found that there didn't seem to be anyone guarding Yu Qiuping, "Has His Highness also been released?" Why did they arrest His Highness! β
"This is a secret, I'm afraid I can't tell you." Yu Qiuping shook his head with a smile and repeated again, "Secret, secret." β
"It's okay, it's good for His Highness to come back, let's hurry back to Japan now." Senkolon didn't ask much, but spoke again.
"Yes, the government arranged for us to go to sea from Tianjin Wei to Japan, and also prepared a ship to send us back." Yu Qiuping nodded and said, "But I still have to go to Jizhen on the way." β
"Why is Your Highness going to Jizhen?"
"Visit someone."
