Chapter 30: Sophistry
After ten days in bed, Narita was able to barely move his body, but the whip marks crisscrossing his back were still terrifying. During the few days he was in a coma, he had nightmares, and his mind always replayed the bloody scene of Mingchuan's execution. These Central Plains people are really terrible, and he has always admired **** culture, and he has a deeper understanding of the aristocratic bureaucrats of Lingyun. Regardless of power or status, they can enjoy far more than their father who is calling for wind and rain in the Japanese country, and the territory is much larger. Just looking at the young prince who was younger than himself, he knew how insignificant he was.
"Looks like your injuries are healed." An indifferent voice came from his ear, "Do you know why this king didn't stop them from flogging you?" ”
Narita struggled to turn his head, but accidentally pulled the wound on his back, grinning in pain. However, he will not forget that voice killed him, if it wasn't for that prince, there would be no one else. Although in order to avoid others from picking on mistakes, he had the heart to get up and salute, but the injury was still heavy after all, so he had to reluctantly touch his head on the pillow a few times, and then said with a crying voice: "I don't know the little one, please make it clear to the prince." ”
"Although you claim to be an envoy of the Japanese kingdom, this king did not find any documents on the ship, and did not find a gift, so I knew that you were bluffing this king." Feng Wuxian saw Narita's face pale, and couldn't help but smile, "The reason why I still spared your life is just because your identity still has some value, otherwise how could it be as simple as a whipping?" You also saw that day, the soldiers and civilians of Fujian hate you to the core, and if Lord Lu does not punish you, I am afraid that everyone will not accept it. ”
A few words of understatement made Narita shiver, he thought he was still a little smart, but who expected that he was almost a fool in the eyes of others. He barely squeezed out a smile that was more ugly than crying, "Lord Wang, do you want the little one to do something?" ”
Feng Wuxian glanced approvingly at this clever widow, but still said to himself: "Do you know how your shogunate dealt with the Mingchuan family? Hmph, that group of guys who bully the soft and are afraid of the hard directly sent thirteen heads to our envoys, I'm afraid that Mingchuan won't believe it until he dies, right? ”
Narita only felt a loud bang in his head, and more than a dozen lives were easily sacrificed by the shogunate, what is the identity of the young prince in front of him? His fate is now in the hands of others, just based on the few words he said, Narita no longer expects his father to do anything, a small Japanese name, less than a thousand miles of land, **** Once asked, I am afraid that he is also the first to be abandoned. "Lord Wang, the little one is just a small generation, if the prince has any orders, the little one will definitely die." Although the words were eloquent, his heart was full of fear, and his hands in the quilt were tightly tugging at the sheets, lest the master propose some kind of errand to lose his head.
"Although the Japanese people have not closed the country today, after all, the ports open in the country are extremely limited. Now that the war is raging in the Japanese kingdom, is your father really willing to live in his own corner of the land since he is a great name? ”
Narita's heart was shocked, and he glanced at Feng Wuxian suspiciously, he really didn't understand what this prince meant, could it be that the Central Plains also wanted to intervene in the affairs of his country? No, it couldn't be, he kept telling himself, but the face of the person in front of him was really weird, what did he want to do?
"The king's request is simple, go back and tell your father, that he can secretly help him to overthrow the shogunate of the Wa Kingdom, and in return, he must try to open all the ports to trade. For example, aren't your swords sharp? Instead of putting rust at home, you might as well sell more overseas, and those people often want to pay a high price but can't. Since there were no excellent sea ships in the Wa Kingdom, it was better to let the Fujian merchants buy and sell on their behalf. All in all, the world is bustling, all for profit; The world is bustling, all for profit, whether your father can grasp more power and wealth is up to you. ”
Narita couldn't help but feel excited, knowing that although the emperor and the shogunate were weak, after all, one was a nominal symbol, and the other had ruled the Wa Kingdom for hundreds of years, and the princes had been fighting for many years, and no one dared to touch either of the two. "What does the prince mean is that **** can help my father?" He asked tentatively, "According to the rules of the Wa Kingdom, the emperor is the embodiment of the gods, but he cannot be touched. ”
"The emperor can't touch it, so the general can always pull it down, right?" Feng Wuxian asked rhetorically, "Aren't their ancestors ordinary warriors either?" This king just made a suggestion, as for the emperor, an insignificant and capricious subject country, there is nothing remarkable about changing the day. ”
Originally, Narita was left just to learn about the situation in the Wa Kingdom, but after Feng Wuxian discussed with Luo Yunqian, the head of the family who had just recovered from a serious illness unexpectedly proposed such a plan. In his opinion, if you can really open up the market of the Japanese Kingdom, the family will only be more prosperous in the future with the support of Feng Wuxi. And out of Feng Wuxi's original intention, provoking deeper civil strife in the Wa State and involving more crazy samurai in the war can also make Fujian suffer as little as possible. Moreover, by dragging Guo Hanjin and Lu Simang, two greedy people, into the water at that time, it is logical to prevent them from excessively exploiting the people. Of course, this important decision was secretly reported to the emperor early in the morning, and he got his approval.
Narita knows that he is just a lamb to be slaughtered, and the other party will never deceive him, but how can such a good thing fall in the world? This prince first executed the stubborn Mingchuan, giving himself a bloody shock, and then he was kind to himself, and then after he acted as a witness, he was whipped to teach himself to death. With such a dazzling arrangement of means, he couldn't figure it out and couldn't figure it out.
"What is Your Highness willing to offer?" Narita gritted his teeth and asked, "With the power of one place against so many princes, even if my father has the heart, I am afraid that he will not be able to do it." ”
"Silver, of course." The corners of Feng Wuxi's mouth turned up, revealing a shallow smile, "Do you think this king can still provide you with soldiers?" There is money in troubled times, what kind of person can't buy it, do you still need this king to teach you? ”
As soon as he heard that the wind was supporting the silver of the white flowers, Narita's eyes suddenly lit up, but the only trace of caution told him that there was no pie falling in the world. "Lord Wang, you have paid such a price, you shouldn't wait until the end to see the result, right?"
"You are very clever, as for the loot, this king will let the Fujian merchants go to buy it, presumably the gold and silver treasures are more in line with your minds than those antique jade, right?" Feng Wuxian unceremoniously made his own request. It suddenly occurred to him that there were some things that were not a way to hide from the Yue family, so it was better to let them get a piece of the pie. Luo Yunqian and Yue Mingzhong, the two old foxes, got together, and there was absolutely no room for loss.
Narita nodded fiercely, "Since the prince can trust it, then let's try it next!" He changed his usual humility and seemed to be his aristocratic son again, proud and confident.
"Your Highness is right!" Yue Mingzhong didn't believe his ears at all, the business in the Wa Kingdom has always been the monopoly of the Luo family, and it is the long-cherished wish of the Yue family to be able to intervene. I thought that Feng Wuxian would distance himself from him after gaining the loyalty of the Luo family, but I didn't expect him to come to the door to talk about this.
"Mr. Yue, does this king seem to be the kind of person who talks about it?" Feng Wuxian replied with a bit of a joke, "The king has already done what Miss Qiyan entrusted, and it seems that the Luo family has not deviated from the original agreement." Could it be that Mr. Yue Lao decided that this king could no longer be trusted? The last sentence deliberately accentuated the tone, which was quite serious.
"Where, Your Highness is laughing!" Yue Mingzhong was not confused enough to be serious with a prince, so he hurriedly got up and saluted, "The old man Meng Lang just now, the reason why he doubted it was that he couldn't believe that His Highness could persuade the Luo family to give up part of the Waguo market." ”
"Did this king say that the Luo family would quit?" Feng Wuxian also stood up, "It's just that with the strength of the Luo family, I'm afraid I won't be able to swallow that bone." Listen to this king......"
Yue Mingzhong was both excited and frightened when he heard this, Feng Wuxian did not hide Luo Yunqian's role in it, and even thought that the wisdom of this crippled family master was still far beyond ordinary people. Even Yue Mingzhong didn't expect his old rival to have such an idea, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that there was no successor between the two families. Since Feng Wuxian has no intention of getting rid of his own family, he simply strikes while the iron is hot, as long as he marries the cigarette, then he doesn't have to worry so much after that.
"Your Highness, please rest assured, the old man will definitely order someone to arrange this matter properly, and make sure that everything is perfect." Yue Mingzhong was confident, "Those rabble in the Japanese country should have taught a good lesson, if they can take the opportunity to make another profit this time, presumably those Japanese businessmen will also want to cry without tears." They've made so much money on weekdays, and now it's our turn. ”
"The older Mr. Yue has this intention, it will be fine." Feng Wuxian nodded and said, Chen Lingcheng and Shi Jingqi's approval made him take this step, although these two giants are extremely rich, they are not bottomless after all, they need money for everything, so they can only go to the left side of the door. After all, the money in the imperial tomb is too weird, and he can't take it out himself, so he can only count on other places. A penny is hard for a hero, and he really understands the meaning.
"Your Highness, about the matter of smoking...... Yue Mingzhong saw that Feng Wuxian seemed to be in a good mood, so he directly brought up the matter of his granddaughter.
Feng Wuxian also knew that this matter could not be avoided, and Yue Qiyan was indeed a good woman, but she was quite wronged when she married herself. "Mr. Yue's good intentions, this king has already made his father known, just wait for his old man to nod, this king immediately married Miss Yue. In any case, the Yue family is also a Fujian family, how can marriage be simple? Such as Miss Yue, a beautiful woman with a blue heart, and the best virtuous helper, it is the honor of this king to marry her, Mr. Yue, but please rest assured. ”
Hearing Feng Wuji's clear answer, Yue Mingzhong's empty heart was put down, as long as his granddaughter can really marry into the royal family, then the Yue family in Fujian will always be able to overpower the Luo family, and his own head of the family is worthy of the ancestors and ancestors.
