Chapter 473: North Korea
In the imperial garden next to the Chunhe Palace, the little emperor Zhu Linhao looked at Hou Xuanyan and the beast cage behind him excitedly.
The little milk dog, who has always been snow-white, looks like a little bear, and Zhu Linhao can't take his eyes off it, so he almost doesn't drool.
Hou Xuanyan stopped in front of her and asked Zhou Yujie next to her, "Has Hao'er been well-behaved lately?" ”
Zhu Linhao instantly became nervous, for fear that if Lady Zhou said a few unpleasant words, the little white wolf in front of her was taken back.
In fact, this is a puppy, although it looks very similar to a snow wolf, but how dare Hou Xuanyan really get a wolf for her.
After the reconquest of Manchuria, the nomadic tribes of the Samoyed in the polar regions east of the Ural Mountains bred a breed of dogs.
The new people of the Ming Dynasty, Dahaner and them have frequent contacts, and they specially got one dedicated to Hou Xuanyan.
This little white velvet thing was used to pull sleds in Siberia, and it will be popular in the streets and alleys in later generations, and it has a name called Samoyed.
Zhou Yujie smiled and nodded, looked at Zhu Linhao's eyes full of doting, and said, "Your Majesty is very well-behaved, and you haven't caused trouble in the past few months." ”
Hou Xuanyan saw her covering her mouth and teasing her, and knew that she was helping Zhu Linhao to cover up, it seems that this little girl has done a lot of demons.
glared at Zhou Yujie fiercely, Hou Xuanyan opened the cage, a stupid and cute puppy, wagging his tail and getting out, Zhu Linhao hugged him excitedly, not knowing where to run to enhance his relationship.
Hou Xuanyan shook his head with a smile, turned his head to look at Zhou Yujie, deliberately bluffed her in front of her, and reprimanded: "Okay, you, whose power is it, even I dare to be deceived?" ”
Zhou Yujie glanced at her apricot eyes and found that Hou Xuanyan was just feigning anger, and said boldly with a red face: "What people say is the truth, the prince doesn't believe it, it's better to punish others." ”
In the middle of Zhou Yujie's slender arms, there were two huge melons, round and heavy. However, the texture is soft and hangs in front of her in the shape of a droplet, and when a woman in this posture rides from behind, the pendulum under her body swayes, which is simply a beautiful scenery.
Hou Xuanyan was suddenly full of interest, pressed her on the railing of the promenade of the imperial garden, held the two jade arms in his hands as if holding the reins, and drove the rouge horse to slowly pace and patrol the imperial garden.
-----
The envoys of North Korea came, and it was not a good time to come, and Hou Xuanyan was preparing to crusade against North Korea.
Li Dejiu, as the envoy this time, was instructed by Li Liang to ask him to win the forgiveness of the Ming Dynasty, even if it was a big price.
Even if he poured the material resources of North Korea, he had to win the favor of the Ming Dynasty, and with this humble purpose, Li Dejiu came to Jinling with a heavy heart. The situation in Korea is even more ironic, and the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which has already perished, still has a remnant army, led by Sukh Saha, and is stationed in Busan. The original intention was to prevent the Japanese soldiers from invading here, and what they were waiting for was not the news of the Japanese soldiers coming, but the bad news that Shengjing had fallen and the Manchu Qing had fallen.
Sukh Saha and his 10,000 blue flags rode in fear like a lost dog, and the world was so big that they didn't know where to go, at this time, the Korean monarch and ministers made a decisive attack for the first time, and wanted to take down this remnant as a stepping stone to re-surrender to the Ming Dynasty.
Who knows, it was these 10,000 people who killed the North Korean soldiers and horses on their backs. Killed Li Liang's 60,000 troops with great difficulty, and if it weren't for the fear of attracting the attention of the Ming Dynasty, they would have even beaten down Seoul.
The combat strength of the Korean army is so low, and it is directly related to the Ming Dynasty, they have repeatedly suffered from foreign enemies, and they all rely on the army of the suzerain, the Ming Dynasty.
Since then, the Korean monarchs and ministers have such an idea in their hearts, no matter how their army is trained, it is cannon fodder, and in the end, if there is a difficulty, just call the suzerain, Daming. Over time, North Korea's armament is becoming more and more relaxed, who knows that people are not as good as heaven, starting from Salhu in the last year of Wanli, Daming himself had a problem, and it is difficult to take care of this little brother who has not been weaned for hundreds of years.
Later, Huang Taiji was born, and finally under the persuasion of Fan Wencheng, he made up his mind to completely subdue North Korea. In front of all the people, Li Ju knelt three times and bowed nine times in front of Huang Taiji, and completely became an eagle dog of the Manchu Dynasty.
The Manchus thus gained the strength of the sailors and a stable rear to conquer the Mongols and attack Liaodong with all their might, and the Koreans found that their old neighbor, the Manchurian Jiannu, was now better than the suzerain, the Ming Dynasty, so they happily changed their courts.
Such an act naturally aroused the hatred of the Ming court, especially Hou Xuanyan, who was very prejudiced against this small country, and was angry when he heard their news.
In the past, Korean envoys in the Ming Dynasty would have been politely entertained, even if they would not have received special preferential treatment, but now it is different.
Korea became a vassal of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and also sent troops into the customs to burn, kill and loot, this account can be remembered clearly by the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces.
Li Dejiu and the others lived in the Honglu Temple in Jinling with trepidation in this hostile gaze, waiting for Hou Xuanyan's summons.
On the third day, Hou Xuanyan received a letter from Xia Wanchun, knowing that the war with Tsarist Russia had spread to a long front, so it seemed that the stability of Korea had also become important.
So Li Dejiu, who couldn't eat and sleep well every day, finally got to see the regent of the Ming Dynasty, and in the outer hall of the palace, Hou Xuanyan sat on the top and looked at this good-looking Korean envoy.
Li Dejiu stabilized his mind and said loudly: "The criminal Li Dejiu knocked on the prince. ”
The words are correct and round, this North Korean official actually has an authentic Fengyang accent. Hou Xuanyan's malice towards him was slightly reduced, and he asked coldly: "Since North Korea has dissolved its vassal relationship with the Ming Dynasty, you and I have nothing to do with each other, and you don't have to kneel down when you see me." Previously, North Korea sent troops into the customs and slaughtered the people in Jinan Prefecture, which was regarded as a declaration of war against our Ming Dynasty. In this case, the relationship between you and me has become hostile again. Now you've come to Jinling, but you're here to write a war letter? ”
"The prince is angry, my North Korea is a small country, I am really unable to resist the army of Jiannu, we swore to resist in Wangcheng, and we were beaten to the point that we had no choice, so we surrendered to the thief. The prince may not know that when our king sacrifices, he still uses the Chongzhen year name. ”
This thing is true, although the Manchu Qing conquered Korea by force, but the North Koreans still look down on them, thinking that the Ming Dynasty is the state of etiquette, and they use the era name of Chongzhen until 1990... At that time, it was already more than 200 years since Chongzhen.
Hou Xuanyan said in a deep voice: "According to this, or are we sorry for you?" ”
"The criminal minister doesn't mean this, he just hopes that the prince can remember the friendship between the two countries in the past, be magnanimous, and save me again."
