While Zhu Youjian was standing on the balcony of the Xiyuan Retreat and looking at the willow trees that were the first to spit green by the Taiye Pool, Wang Chengen and Lu Qi walked into his office with a stack of pieces. Books.com

Chongzhen, who heard the movement, took a deep breath of the cool fresh air in the early morning, and then turned around and walked back to the room, "Is there any news worth paying attention to today?" ”

Wang Chengen, who was placing the piece on the desk, immediately stopped his movements and replied: "Your Majesty, there are a few letters from Jinzhou, you'd better take a look at them first." ”

After Zhu Youzhen sat down, he picked up a few letters specially selected by Wang Chengen and looked at them, Wang Chengen, who was standing on the side, carefully observed the emperor's face, not knowing if the news from Jinzhou would make Chongzhen angry with Jinyiwei.

However, Zhu Youzhen didn't have any fluctuations in his expression until he finished reading these twists and turns, but just sighed lightly and said: "Zhang Cunren is a pity, it seems that the rectification of the Liaoxi armies is almost to the limit, Lu Qi, you let Li Hongyuan and Luo Yangxing come over, I have something to explain to them." ”

After Chongzhen put down his hand, he immediately looked up at Wang Chengen and asked, "When will Tokugawa Hidetada arrive in Beijing?" ”

Wang Chengen thought for a moment and said: "I will arrive in the capital at noon, and the minister has already arranged for Tokugawa Hidetada and Toyotomi Chiyo to still live in the place where Toyotomi Chiyo lived, but is the negotiation venue really going to be in Tianjin Chunfan Tower?" Is it a little farther away from the capital? ”

Zhu Youzhen nodded and said, "It's not far, it's not far, at least those Europeans won't make the capital a miasma." After Ye Yuxuan and Zhang Guoji arrived in the capital, bring them to see me. ”

Wang Chengen nodded in agreement, Zhu Youzhen picked through the folds on the side, took out the folds of Zhu Luhu, the king of Jingjiang, and looked at them, he nodded slightly and said: "The king of Jingjiang finally figured it out and brought the map of Southeast Asia." ”

Wang Chengen quickly walked to the corner of the wall, took out a roll of maps from the vase and spread it out in front of the emperor, Zhu Youzhen watched for a long time, then nodded on the big island in the west of the Mekong Delta and said: "This island is renamed Jingjiang Island, and 30 kilometers of adjacent land to the north and east of the island are demarcated as the fief of Jingjiang Wangfu, and this area plus the nearby island is the new fief of Jingjiang Wangfu."

The Jingjiang palace was given three years to relocate, and after three years, the old fief of the Jingjiang palace was recovered, and the prince of Tang was ordered to supervise the relocation of the domain. All children of the clan who did not want to go to the new domain were removed from the genealogy and were left to support themselves, and the state no longer paid for their living expenses.

In addition, the recital of King Jingjiang was published, and a few words of praise were praised in the name of me, such as public loyalty to the country, sharing worries for the country, and so on. The prince of Tang did this errand well, so that he inherited the throne of Tang Wang. Let him choose a place in Cambodia by the way, and Tang Fan also moved out of Nanyang..."

After Zhu Youzhen dealt with the twists and turns of the table, Li Hongyuan and Luo Yangxing finally arrived at the house, and Zhu Youzhen briefly told them about the defection of army generals in Jinzhou, and then explained.

"Zhao Yiwei dealt with internal spies in Jinzhou, although the action was a little excessive, but the results were still the main ones. If we don't get those unreliable wavers out of the army, how can we guarantee that there will be no second Sun Demerit?

However, since there is such a big reaction from the local government and the army in western Liaoning, it can be seen that some people have indeed been wronged. So I asked you to come over, the first thing is that Luo Yangxing, you lead the team to Guanwai and replace Zhao Yiwei, and Li Hongyuan and you will review the case of the military and civilians in western Liaoning in the past six months. If there is no evidence, it will be rehabilitated and released.

The second thing is that for those who have conclusive evidence, except for those with bad influences, they must be brought to justice, and if the circumstances are minor, they should be exiled to Sakhalin, Fuso, the Kuril Islands, and other places. The immigration program was implemented immediately after the beginning of spring. ”

Luo Yangxing nodded yes again and again, but Li Hongyuan asked the emperor with some hesitation: "Your Majesty, the minister wants to know how many people can be relocated in these places at most, and what should be done with the land and homes of these relocated people?" ”

Zhu Youzhen thought for a while, took the map on one side and said: "There is a large plain in the southwest of Fusang Island, and now that Japan has been defeated by the coalition forces, it cannot stop China's development of Fusang Island for the time being.

It's just that the climate here is harsh, and if it is not a last resort, it is estimated that not many people are willing to go. Zhao Yiwei: Most of the people they arrested and labeled may not be spies, but they must be wavering elements against Houjin.

At the moment of serious antagonism between our dynasty and the Later Jin, I will never allow any unstable factors to remain in the Western Liaoning Corridor. Therefore, most of the wavering elements should be relocated. As for the land and mansions in their names, the mansions can be purchased at the market price, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs will provide this fund, and the land will be replaced at the resettlement site at a ratio of 3:1..."

The bustling wharves of Tianjin and the majestic city of Beijing did not surprise Tokugawa Hidetada, and although the two countries had severed official contacts since the Battle of Lu-Keichō, people-to-people exchanges never stopped, and there were many depictions of the Ming kingdom by previous generations.

The abundance and stability of the original mainland have always been the envy and longing of the small people of the island nation who have suffered many disasters. After Toyotomi Hideyoshi unified Japan, he sent a large army to land in Korea, which was also influenced by this trend of thought.

However, the Ming Kingdom was not without the things that shocked Xiuzhong, such as the machinery that loaded and unloaded heavy loads at the docks, the windmills that were as dense as the woods on both sides of the Haihe River, and the railways between Tianjin and Beijing.

This kind of vitality that belongs to the unique industrial city made Xiuzhong feel shocked from the heart. He even secretly took Matsudaira Nobutsuna to the Haihe River while waiting for the emperor to summon him, and saw how the windmills lifted the river downstream to a higher place.

During this visit, the two also saw many dazzling goods and some strange machines, such as a large enclosed iron pot that burns coal to carry water from low to high places; Or some people are demonstrating how to pour a bucket of wheat into a steel machine more than two people high, and then pour out the wheat flour automatically, without human intervention.

Xiuzhong stood in front of this strange machine for a long time, and he really couldn't figure out how this wheat turned into wheat flour, and the speed was so fast.

In this era, grinding flour is a heavy job, and a bullock pulling a stone mill can only grind two stones of wheat in a day; A donkey can grind about a stone; As for people, strong men can grind about 3 buckets, and weak women can be halved. The water-powered stone mill can reach 6 stone of wheat, but there are more stone chips.

Of course, the steel grinding machine was obviously very flawed, and after an hour of work, it made a loud noise and no longer produced flour.

The crowd of onlookers was not surprised by this, but cheered happily, and then prepared to leave satisfied. Matsudaira Nobutsuna, who can speak, pulled a person with a good heart, and humbly asked him why the surrounding people did this.

Although the Ming man who was pulled away did not like to see the Japanese, he still reluctantly explained: "The young owner of the Zhao family's hydraulic mill studied in the capital for two years, and came back and said that he wanted to build a better iron mill, but after it was built, it could not be used at all, and it was purely a waste of money.

But his fate is really good, after his senior brother heard about this, he said that he couldn't let him smash the signboard of the division, and sent someone to take over the development of this iron mill. Now the iron mill can move, but the rest of the day is much longer.

I remember that the month only moved for half an hour and then rested for a day, and the week moved for more than half an hour, and today it was not bad, and I finally made up a whole number. Now this iron mill has become a living sign of the Zhao family's hydraulic mill, and everyone has time to come and take a look at the excitement and see how many minutes it has been dry..."

Although Xiuzhong and Matsudaira Nobutsuna did not mention this matter again after they returned, Xiuzhong repeatedly pondered in his heart whether there would be such a fool under his rule, spending money and energy, just to make a machine work for a few more minutes.

In the end, he concluded that no, because Japanese samurai would not specialize in such craftsmanship, and Japanese merchants and craftsmen would not spend money on a research that would not see profits. However, if such research can really succeed, then flour will no longer be the exclusive food of the rich, and even the common people can eat delicious white flour.

In the afternoon of that day, Xiuzhong looked through the window at the gardeners in the garden, one of them pressed the well by hand to carry water, and the other used a soft pipe to water everywhere, and thought quietly for a long time.

So before he left Tianjin, he specially instructed Naotaka Ii and Nobutsuna Matsudaira: "There is no need to be in a hurry to oppose the negotiation conditions proposed by the Ming people, and there is no need to rush to accept their conditions, everything will be said after I have seen His Majesty the Emperor."

When I send a letter to you, you must do what it says, and there will be no disobedience in the slightest, do you two understand? ”

Matsudaira Nobutsuna quickly accepted Hidetada's order, but Ii Naotaka said with some concern: "But Your Highness, how can we know that the content of the letter you sent back is your true meaning?" Will Akito..."

Looking at Jing Yizhi's unfinished filial piety, Xiuzhong waved his hand and said, "Since we have arrived here, what difference does it make if the Ming people are under house arrest or not?"

From the time we sat on the ships of the Ming people, we have already submitted to the Ming Dynasty on behalf of the shogunate. If the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom still wants to deal with us, then it can only mean one thing, that is, the Ming Kingdom does not have the strength to defeat the Shogunate at all, so he wants to deal with us by any means.

If Mingguo was just a vain shelf, then I wouldn't have written a word. As the second-generation head of the Tokugawa clan, if I die in the capital, then there is no need for this negotiation to continue.

If Da Ming is really as powerful as we imagined, then my letter to you is the embodiment of my true heart. Whatever happens, the preservation of the Tokugawa family is your primary concern, and there is nothing non-negotiable except for the territory of the Kanto Plain and the dominant power over eastern Japan..."
