Gu Bei was too far away from the Hua Dynasty, and Hou Xuanyan gave him full autonomy, but he was also unable to pass on the information to him.

At this time, it depends on a minister's ability to adapt to changes, but Gu Bei is not very experienced, so he can only ask those reasons repeatedly.

When the news was transmitted back to Britain from the merchant's mouth, Gu Bei was very entangled in his heart, was this a signal from the imperial court or a mistake by the sailors?

If it is a mistake, of course, it is not to accompany it with a smile, and it is not too much to apologize for killing so many people.

If the court signaled, it was for the sake of prestige, then it was necessary not to give any face, let alone apologize, and when he saw Cromwell, he had to turn his nostrils to the sky and not look at him.

Once you say the wrong thing, it will affect the honor of the court and the country! Gu Bei was so nervous that his palms were sweating.

On the way to Cromwell's manor, Gu Bei fell into a tangle, and when he came to the manor with a sad face, he found that Cromwell was more worried than him.

The Chinese sailors extended their hands to the Americas, which was the last thing the British liked to see, and the Chinese, unlike the Europeans, had never been willing to develop together wherever they were touched.

What he didn't know was that Hou Xuanyan was not unwilling to develop together, but they were still too weak to be qualified to develop together with the Hua Dynasty.

The Chinese Dynasty had already occupied all of Siberia, and from the Bering Strait it was easy to transport a large number of men and horses to the American continent, which was beyond the reach of European countries.

The plundering of the capital of European countries is bloody, but in the end, the harm is actually not as good as that of the Chinese Dynasty. The activities of the Chinese in the Americas are a fatal blow to the continuation and inheritance of the racial uniqueness here.

The Hua Dynasty seems to be a warm spring breeze, but in fact, it has secretly and subtly, changing the style of the entire continent.

The Han style is strong, and there is no need to chop with a knife or axe, which can make people yearn for it.

Unlike later generations, the Han style at this time has been standing at the top of the world for thousands of years, and the self-confidence of the Heavenly Empire is emanating from the bones.

Cromwell saw Gu Bei and said, "Ambassador Gu, I think there is some misunderstanding between us. ”

The translator of the Siyi Pavilion behind Gu Bei, after saying this sentence to Gu Bei, the latter smiled lightly: "Protector, I am too far away from our imperial court, and His Majesty's will cannot reach me in time, at this time, it is useless for you to ask me, it is better to wait for a few days, and I will reply on behalf of Dahua." ”

Cromwell was helpless, Britain was still very weak, and they were beaten to the ground in the naval battle with the Netherlands. The Dutch warships were once approaching London, and the Chinese Dynasty was their strong reinforcement, and they were sparing no effort to attack the Dutch power overseas, which would greatly reduce the Dutch combat power over time, and then it would be the best time for Britain to rise in Europe.

Because of this, the envoys of the Chinese Dynasty enjoyed excellent treatment in England, even more than the average nobleman.

This world has always been like this, and when the country is strong, the people will be looked down upon when they are outside. At that time, the Manchu Qing Dynasty was poor and weak for a hundred years, and they were bullied by mermaids, which led to the low status of the Chinese in the world, and they were fooled, ridiculed and despised wherever they went.

At this time, Hou Xuanyan, who was in Jinling, had already heard the war report in the Americas, but he didn't pay too much attention to the accidental killing of dozens of British, in fact, the British overseas colonists did not have a few good stubbles, all of them were pirates and criminals with blood on their hands.

The prosperity of Dahua has also led to the most favored nation status of Japan, and in recent years, Japan has made a lot of efforts for the saddle of the Chinese Dynasty.

The Japanese kings of the Tokugawa family have never been absent from any of the grand ceremonies of the Chinese Dynasty, and the Japanese soldiers have always appeared on the most difficult battlefields.

The Tokugawa clan trained a large number of talents in the university hall, craftsman hall, and medical hall opened in Edo, and some of them returned from the Hua Dynasty, and with their own studies, they even surpassed Dahua in some aspects.

The sailors that Japan secretly set up are also quite large-scale, in fact, Japan's sailors are not weak from the beginning.

If it weren't for Tokugawa Ieyasu's lockdown order, which hindered Japan's development, they would have been westernized by the Franco-Motorists long ago.

When Tokugawa Ietsuna heard about the richness and vastness of America in Edo, he was so anxious that he wrote a letter to Kinling overnight, asking for permission to send a sailor to get a piece of the pie.

The land of America is very large, so big that it is beyond everyone's imagination, and Tokugawa Ietsuna thought that Hou Xuanyan would happily agree, but in the end, Hou Xuanyan angrily reprimanded the Japanese thief and did not change his mind.

After entering the Tianxi year, the emperor, who had always been very gentle, was furious, and tore the Tokugawa Ietsuna's recital in the hall, and scolded the Japanese envoys, warning them to keep to themselves.

The Japanese envoys trembled, but they felt very humiliated, and from their point of view, their demands were not excessive.

However, His Majesty the Emperor of the Chinese Dynasty, who has super popularity in Japan, did not agree, and even scolded uncharacteristically.

On the way back to Japan, the Japanese mission even suffered such a humiliation, and when the news came back to Japan, the businessmen of the people were greatly disappointed, and the Japanese people were filled with righteous indignation.

At Edo Rinnoji Temple, Tokugawa Ietsuna knelt in front of the tablets of Ieyasu and Iemitsu, his dark face slightly hideous.

Several daimyo of Japan knelt aside without saying a word, these were all newly named daimyos, there were no independent armies and samurai, and all had to be loyal to the king.

The daimyos, who are majestic on weekdays, don't even dare to breathe at this time, and the beads of sweat on their foreheads are falling.

Tokugawa Ietsuna's voice was hoarse and torn, as if squeezed out of his teeth: "The Chinese have rejected our request, and even insulted our envoy, and the emperor of the Hua Dynasty is not as just as he said. These people have always looked at us with strange eyes, even if we are good enough and loyal enough.

Five years ago, Zhu Dadian led the sailors to bombard Nagasaki and kill thousands of excellent samurai of our Tokugawa family.

Later, they drove the warships to Edo, and the guns were aimed at our homeland, and dozens of iron-clad warships showed off their might near Edo.

My father personally went to Zhu Dadian's military camp to sue for peace, and we ceded the port, abolished commercial taxes, and even killed the emperor.

In the icy and snowy land of Siberia, in the snake-infested jungles of Siamese Java, and on the suffocating plateau of Dzungaria, our warriors shed too much blood for the Chinese dynasty. ”

Sakai Yoshimitsu was promoted to Kyushu Detective because of his great achievements in Siberia, and he lowered his voice and said: "Your Majesty, it is not suitable to break with the Hua Dynasty now, I hope that the king will think twice." ”

Tokugawa Iemitsu slammed his fist to the floor, faint blood stains appeared on his finger bones, and said in a deep voice: "Send someone to prepare a generous gift, take my confession, and go to the Hua Dynasty again." ”

The rift between the Hua Dynasty and Japan had appeared, and before the Tokugawa family died, he had told the people next to him not to clash with the Hua Dynasty before the time was ripe.

I have to say that Tokugawa Iemitsu's vision is not bad, and the gap between countries is too great for one generation or even several generations to catch up.

Tokugawa Ietsuna could only bury this hatred in his heart, but even so, the envoys they sent still carried a large amount of treasure to try to appease Hou Xuanyan's anger.

In the Imperial Garden of the Forbidden City of Jinling City, a hundred flowers bloomed and competed for beauty, and Hou Xuanyan was not very interested, watching his children play.

After King Jing left, the palace was deserted several times, and the prince was completely quiet as soon as he left. These little princesses of mine are too quiet. ”

Thinking of the naughty and ghostly Zhu Linhao, a smile unconsciously appeared on Hou Xuanyan's face, counting that she has been to Taiwan for two years.

"Stinky girl, you haven't even written a letter to me."

Qian Wei, who had just recovered after giving birth, said with a smile: "Hao'er is active by nature, the palace is like a birdcage to her, and of course she has to go crazy for a few years just after she walks out, before she remembers the warmth in the palace and the love of His Majesty." ”

The reason why Zhu Linhao's personality has become so cheerful is not only his nature, but also because of the deliberate indulgence of the elixir.

In order to clear all the obstacles to Hou Xuanyan's ascension to the throne, the elixir used all his strength, first the god-making plan to raise Hou Xuanyan's prestige to be incomparable, and then the little emperor was trained to be playful and lively, but he didn't want to be the emperor.

As the closest person to Zhu Linhao, the elixir was undoubtedly successful, and Zhu Linhao had a sense of disgust for the palace. Her desire for the outside of the palace once made Hou Xuanyan very surprised, such a small thing actually had such a high desire for herself. If there is no element of nature in this, Hou Xuanyan will not believe it.

With a long sigh, Hou Xuanyan stood up, and Hou Wanshu, the little peach in the distance, ran over with a wave of his hand.

"Father, tell us a story."

Yang Fujin reprimanded with a straight face: "Nonsense, how can my father have time." ”

Hou Wanshu pursed her lips and looked at Hou Xuanyan aggrievedly, the latter took her on her lap and said with a smile: "Why don't you have time, I'm bored, just tell a story to my daughter." ”

Yang Fujin's heart warmed, and a smile rippled at the corner of his mouth, but he said: "Your Majesty just spoils them too much." ”

"Father Emperor will tell you a story about learning scriptures from two flowers, a long time ago, there was a monk named Chen Xuanzang...."

The story of Hou Xuan's speech is even more exciting than Journey to the West, although Qian Wei and Yang Fujin have both watched Journey to the West, they still listen to it with relish.

At this time, a eunuch came running in the distance, and Hou Wanshu pointed at him and said, "Father, look, goblin." ”

Xiao Lizi ran over and saw the princess pointing at her, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Your Majesty, there is a Japanese envoy outside asking to see you." ”

Hou Xuanyan frowned and asked, "I have already scolded them, why don't you know how to advance or retreat, and you won't see them!" ”

In this way, the Japanese envoys stayed in Jinling for half a month, and did not see the emperor.

Hou Xuanyan only wanted to get involved in the colonies, and the anger in his heart rose faintly, and the most intolerable thing for him was the rise of Japan.

Now this little brother is very obedient, if he becomes strong, he will be a vicious dog that will eat his master, which Hou Xuanyan does not doubt at all.

The happiest thing about the separation of the Chinese Dynasty and Japan was Korea, and although they and Japan were the two small thugs of the Chinese Dynasty in the east, their relations with each other were very bad.

Japan has twice invaded Korea, killing corpses everywhere, and Korea finally relied on external forces to drive Japan away. Therefore, the Japanese were not convinced, believing that without foreign aid, North Korea would be vulnerable at all.

Korea hated Japan even more, and the fierce remnants of the Japanese soldiers gave them heavy pain, and Li Dejiu was very happy after hearing that the Japanese were scolded by the emperor, and immediately sent an envoy to send 300 Korean women to add palace maids to the imperial palace of the Chinese Dynasty.

Now the Han women in the palace are very rare, and most of them are female officials who are responsible for management.

The palace maids sent by North Korea are very hard-working and honest, and Hou Xuanyan also gave them to many of his courtiers.

This time it was the prince Li Zhuolin, who was already a pivotal figure in the Korean court, so he was able to represent Korea on behalf of the Chinese Dynasty every time.

Hou Xuanyan looked at the young Li Zhuolin, remembered Japan's request for colonies a few days ago, and said with a smile: "North Korea has suffered from military disasters and man-made disasters, which have suffered the local people. This year, there was a great drought in the north, and the DPRK must have also suffered from it. ”

Li Zhuolin bowed his waist and said: "Your Majesty Xie cares about the livelihood of the people of the country, this is really the honor of the people of North Korea, this time more than 8,000 people died in the drought in North Korea, and my father is doing his best to provide relief." Thanks to the merchants of the Hua Dynasty, they brought a lot of grain and helped us a lot. ”

The Hou Xuanyan he said all knew that the North Koreans exchanged deer antler velvet and ginseng for a lot of food.

Hou Xuanyan nodded and said: "North Korea is close to the sea, you can't be too brainless, since the grain is not harvested, you can fish on a large scale." In short, saving people's lives first is the most important thing. ”

Li Zhuolin's eyes lit up, although the sea area of Korea is large, it has always been occupied by the Chinese Dynasty and Japan.

Now that Your Majesty allows yourself to fish, does it mean that Your Majesty wants us to compete with the Japanese for fishing grounds, it seems that the Japanese really provoked Your Majesty a few days ago.

Li Zhuolin immediately decided that this rift between China and Japan was a good opportunity for North Korea.

Perhaps, we can take this opportunity to rise and become a great power second only to the Chinese Dynasty.

Lee Cheuk-lam's idea is very simple, as long as it surpasses Japan, North Korea will be a well-deserved second power.

In the eyes of these people, only the Hua Dynasty could suppress them, completely forgetting the Japanese soldiers, Manchus, and Han people... How did you bully them?

Where did Hou Xuanyan think that Li Zhuolin could make up so much brains, he was purely to make Japan uncomfortable, who knew that this move would inadvertently stir the relationship between Japan and North Korea.

After experiencing the initial goodness, all the covenants have become eclipsed, and Hou Xuan's Hua Dynasty first beats his teammate Britain in the Americas, and then provokes the relationship between the two younger brothers, while he sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight.
