Chapter 791: Eternal Ministerhood

Jingshi, the capital of the Ming Dynasty: Beijing. Since the first year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1368), after Zhu Yuanzhang destroyed the Yuan Dynasty, in order to record the merits of pacifying the north, the capital of the Yuan Dynasty was renamed Beiping.

In the first year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty (1403), after Emperor Zhu Di Yongle of the Ming Dynasty obtained the throne, he changed the fief of Beiping Mansion when he was the king of Yan to Shuntianfu, built Beijing City, and prepared to move the capital here, which was the beginning of the official naming of Beijing.

Later Ming Chengzu moved the capital to Beijing in the eighteenth year of Yongle (1420) and changed his name to Jingshi until the end of the Ming Dynasty.

"It's... This is the imperial capital? Hosokawa Motokatsu and his entourage were like hillbillies entering the city, and they were deeply impressed by the spectacular architecture in the city, and Kyoto in Japan was not even as good as Ningbo Port.

They went through hardships and dangers to the Ming Empire on the other side, and saw a huge fleet, whose merchant ships were larger than the ironclad ships they were proud of, not to mention the warships they looked up to.

When I first entered the bustling Ningbo Port, I thought it was the imperial capital, but Yoshida Soguiichi introduced that this was just a small border port, and everyone's mouths couldn't close.

"God... Oh, my God... This... This is the Imperial City..."Entering the palace, looking at the magnificent palace in front of you, your own palace is simply a broken tile house.

Hosokawa Motokatsu and Yoshida Sokatsu were waiting outside the hall, Sokatsu had been familiar with it a few times, but Motokatsu was the first time he came, and the shock in his heart made his hands tremble slightly. It's like the poor people from remote areas, who are a little at a loss when they first enter the bustling metropolis.

The hall was loud and loud, and the three shouts of long live made Hosokawa Motokatsu, who was waiting outside the hall, excited, and swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously. And Yoshida Sokatsu looked at the plaque "Imperial Hall" curiously, remembering that the last time he accompanied Hosokawa Nobumoto, it was called "Fengtenden".

What he didn't know was that Hosokawa Nobuyuan Jinxian's national policy of "opening the sea for trade" doubled the national strength of the Ming Dynasty year by year, and Emperor Jiajing was overjoyed and renamed the Fengtian Hall in 1562, which means that the imperial power has reached a very far place.

The Huangji Hall here is not the renaming of the Ningshou Palace built by Qianlong in the Later Qing Dynasty, but the political core of the Ming Dynasty! That is, the Taihe Hall of the Later Qing Dynasty, commonly known as the Jinluan Palace!

On the top of the load-bearing eaves palace, sit down 3 layers of white marble steps, adopt the golden dragon and the seal color painting, the roof of the immortal beast as many as 11 pieces, 11 rooms, all adopt the highest shape system.

The usual Imperial Palace is not used for the last dynasty, but for the place where various ceremonies are held, the actual number of uses is very small, only in such as the emperor ascending the throne, the emperor's wedding, the canonization of the queen, the fate of the general, in addition to the annual longevity festival, New Year's Day, winter solstice three major festivals, the emperor here to accept the civil and military officials of the court, and to the princes and ministers to give a banquet.

And today's opening is the day of the vassal state's 'Ben will go to the Ming Dynasty again after 27 years from the last time I came here!

"Xuan... The Japanese envoy, the first assistant minister of the cabinet, the scholar of the shogunate palace, the governor of moderation, and the head of the military department, Motokatsu, and the deputy envoy Yoshida Munegui came to meet him..."A shrill chant came from the hall.

"Xuan... Then he paged it again and again, until he reached the eunuch at the door.

Hosokawa Motokatsu hurriedly straightened his clothes, today he was dressed in court clothes, wore a crown at the waist, held a tooth wat in his hand, and then lowered his head and entered the palace with Yoshida Sokir.

All the way to the hall in small steps, he must have bowed to the Ming Emperor on the dragon chair: "The subordinate Yuan Yuansheng, Yoshida Zonggui!" Meet His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty! Long live our emperor! Banzai! Hooray! ”

The reason why he changed to his oldest "Yuan" surname is because the Ming Dynasty recognized that this was the imperial surname of Japan, just like the surname "Zhu".

"Well, excuse me." The voice of the Ming Emperor on the dragon chair was round and clear, full of confidence, and he knew that his body was great when he heard it.

"Thank you, Lord Longne!" The two stood up, still standing with their heads bowed, not daring to look at the face of the Son of Heaven.

"Lift your head up, let me! Take a look. ”

Since the emperor had spoken, Hosokawa Motokatsu and Yoshida Sokatsu slowly raised their heads, and the two sides looked at each other.

"Huh?" Yoshida Munegui blinked his eyes, and it seemed familiar from between his eyebrows.

"Hahaha! Imperial Doctor Yoshida, it's been a long time. When the emperor mentioned this, Yoshida Zonggui remembered, isn't this the Yuwang Zhu Zaiyuan back then? It turns out that he is the current saint: Emperor Longqing!

"My emperor can still remember his ministers, it's really an honor for his ministers." Yoshida Zonggui smiled, he also treated Emperor Longqing back then, and helped him cure the sequelae of taking kitsch. Otherwise... Emperor Longqing is afraid that he has already gone to see his ancestors and ancestors.

"Yes, I am so happy to see Imperial Doctor Yoshida again after decades of absence. By the way, is Yuan Huiyuan good? "Emperor Longqing will always remember that year, at the age of twenty, he met Hosokawa Nobumoto, who was only eight years old, and the two talked all night and became friends.

Especially the finishing touch at the end of Hosokawa Nobumoto: In today's world, Yan Song's dictatorship, the decadence of the dynasty, and the officials' **, the annexation of land inside makes the people miserable, and there is the trouble of the south and the north captives so that the country has no peace, if it is not eradicated, the Ming Dynasty is in danger.

Moreover, as if Hosokawa Nobugen was not a person of this era, the ideas he said were step by step, which benefited Zhu Zaigao a lot.

Therefore, since Emperor Longqing succeeded to the throne, he was willing to forge ahead and have the courage to pioneer and innovate. Politically, the policy of closing the country to the outside world was abolished, the Maritime Silk Road was vigorously supported and developed, the development of industry and commerce was encouraged and improved, and the displaced people were concentrated to participate in the expansion of overseas colonies.

Militarily, it is necessary to build a strong naval force to ensure the interests of the coastal and overseas colonies. Vigorously promote the firearms industry, large-scale equipping with sophisticated weapons, and create countless first-of-its-kind world inventions, such as the fighter plane: the Divine Fire Crow; Two mines: mines and mines; Machine guns: Lianzi; Missiles: Fire Dragon Out of the Water; Incendiary Bombs: 10,000 enemies, and an epoch-making change: upgrade the solid bullets in the cannon into explosive projectiles!

In the past few decades, the Japanese have been in the stage of domestic turmoil and conquest by the princes, and the serious internal friction has made the Japanese poor and white. The Ming Empire opened the Age of Discovery, and opened up new areas to bring a steady stream of wealth, upgraded firearms, and easily swept away the Qiang, Mongolian, and Manchu people who rode horses and broadswords in the north, and the country was strong and the people were rich!

From the "Longqing Switch" to the "Longqing New Deal", Zhu Zaiyuan achieved the peaceful and prosperous era of the Ming Dynasty, and was known as a generation of Ming monarchs who turned the tide by later generations.

Now this Ming Jun is reading a piece of music in his hand, which is Hosokawa Nobumoto's own letter. In the letter, he first regarded himself as a minister and congratulated His Majesty on his holy peace, and then expressed his feelings for many years, and explained that he had ruled the country and wished to be a vassal for all generations.
