It is said that after Li Guozhen warmly bid farewell to Emperor Chongzhen, he took a lot of equipment to Tianjin Port in a hurry, because Emperor Chongzhen had told Yuan Keli about this before, Yuan Keli sent someone here to respond and take care of the equipment, and then Li Guozhen also refused to receive him, and rushed to North Korea by boat non-stop. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info The king of North Korea knew that the **** Shangguo sent an envoy, and hurriedly led the civil and military officials to personally go out of Seoul to welcome, and after seeing the dusty Li Guozhen, he hurriedly saluted, "The king of North Korea, Li Liang, see the envoy!" The civil and military officials behind the king of North Korea knelt down and saluted, Li Guozhen watched the king kneel and salute himself, and suddenly felt stunned, so he coughed a few times and said: "Please get up!" Please! Everyone got up, and the king of Korea said: "The little king knows that the envoy is coming, so he has prepared a banquet in the palace to catch the wind and wash the dust for the envoy!" ”

Li Guozhen nodded with satisfaction and said, "That's very good!" As he spoke, he led the guards to the palace, and then everyone followed, and soon everyone sat down, and the wine and food began to be served in turn, and there were special beauties serving Li Guozhen, and suddenly Li Guozhen felt that the fatigue of these days disappeared all at once. The whole person was refreshed, couldn't help but close his eyes and enjoy it slowly, pretending to be forced, after drinking and eating, Li Guozhen also slowly opened his eyes, and the king of Joseon saw that the envoy's spirit was much better, so he asked carefully: "I don't know what the envoy suddenly came to my small land?" ”

After enjoying it, it was natural to start doing things, so Li Guozhen smiled and said: "The envoy came to save North Korea in the name of my great son!" ”

"Save us North Korea?" The king of Joseon and his courtiers were stunned when they heard this, save us? Why are we saving us now? Isn't this a show of brains?

Li Guozhen nodded and said, "Exactly!" After speaking, he took a sip of wine intoxicated, looking at his virtue, he looked like the uncle said that he came to save you!

"Xiao Wang is stupid! I wonder if the envoy can make it clearer? The king of the DPRK said sincerely.

Li Guozhen really wanted to pretend to be forced to come to something, since you asked sincerely, I will tell you compassionately, think about it or hold back, so he said: "Don't worry! Let's listen to this envoy! Then he took another sip of wine and began to sink down and not speak, and the anxious Korean people really wanted to come up and beat him to death, but they didn't dare, just waiting for the envoy to speak anxiously over there, Li Guozhen felt that his forced pretense was almost over, so he continued: "That's it! Now, this natural disaster continues, according to the news that the envoy knows, there is a food shortage in Mongolia because of the bad weather, so what will they do if they have a food shortage? They can't beat our Ming so they can only trade with our Ming to buy grain, when the envoy came, our Shengming's Majesty had already ordered the envoy, but you also know that this grain is scarce even in our Ming, right, so our Majesty only promised to sell a little to them, not much! It's just enough for them to drink a bowl of porridge to survive this winter, but you think! There is also a famine on this Tartar's side, so what if they have no food? We will never sell grain to the Tartars, this Tartars are not a good stubble, right? ”

"Yes!" Everyone nodded in unison, just like the little chicken Mimi.

"And what do you say these Tartars will do?" Li Guozhen asked with a smile.

"This 。。。。。。" The king of North Korea is not stupid, this is only left to take North Korea, saying that it sounds good is to take is actually to rob, and to rob is not just to grab food, the situation in February of the seventh year of the Apocalypse is still fresh in their memory, they endured humiliation and signed the Jiangdu contract with the barbarians of the Houjin, although the contract stipulates that the relationship with the Ming Dynasty is severed from the vassal state, but the Ming Dynasty has the grace to save the country, so they will not be ungrateful, or regard the Ming Dynasty as their own suzerain, but if the Houjin comes to rob again, the national strength of North Korea can not resist at all, The last time Korea was attacked by the Houjin, the Ming Dynasty, as the suzerain, did not send troops to help, so this time the envoy meant to help us in North Korea?

Then the king of Joseon said, "Then the envoy has come to help us resist the attack of the Tartars?" ”

Li Guozhen said with a smile: "It can also be said that this time I also prepared a large number of weapons and equipment for you to use in our Beijing camp, you must know that our Beijing camp is the best equipment in the Ming Dynasty, this time in order to help you resist the Houjin, our Shengming Emperor His Majesty will issue an order to help you and enhance your combat effectiveness!" ”

When the king of North Korea heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "Your Majesty is wise!" Banzai! Banzai! Hooray! North Korea is grateful! ”

Li Guozhen listened, nodded and continued: "Of course! You also know that His Majesty has drawn from the equipment of the soldiers in the Beijing camp, and His Majesty must give them another reward as compensation, although His Majesty is a benevolent and virtuous king, but now he has to give this reward because he saved you, and it is not good if His Majesty pays for it himself, right? ”

"That's right! Right! His Majesty the Wise Emperor must not be allowed to pay for it! This reward is still out of our Korean state! The king of Joseon said with great pride. The ministers below also nodded yes.

Li Guozhen nodded and said, "That's very good!" However, now that it is the New Year, you also know that many materials are difficult to buy with money, so our Majesty thinks that it is better to reward the soldiers with food, but our Ming Dynasty has just transferred a lot of grain to sell to Mongolia, and this time we can't draw so much food to reward the soldiers, so you see。。。。。。 ”

Everyone finally understood, it turned out that the envoys sent by the Ming Dynasty also asked for food, but we don't have much grain reserves in North Korea, so we will starve ourselves if we give too much, and if we give less, the face is not very good-looking, and we disappoint the emperor's heart, so they said: "What does the envoy mean that the little king should give how much food to reward the soldiers?" ”

"It's up to you!" After Li Guozhen finished speaking, he did not speak and drank on his own, so the king of Joseon discussed with the ministers. However, in the end, the discussion still did not reach a result, so the king of Joseon said to Li Guozhen: "Such a major matter cannot be discussed at once, and there is no result, so this way!" The envoy will go back to the palace arranged by Xiao Wang to rest first, and let Xiao Wang discuss with the ministers before making a decision? ”

"Okay! Ben will go back and wait for your good news! After saying that, he swaggered back to his lodgings to rest.

Seeing Li Guozhen leaving, the king of Korea spoke: "You have also listened to the words of the envoy, how should this reward be paid, and how much grain do we have in the treasury now?" ”

At this time, Wu Daji, the right councilor, said: "King, now our treasury still has hundreds of thousands of surplus grain, but this grain is also for us to spend the winter, and we have to prepare for next year's emergencies, if this is given to us, it will be difficult to live!" ”

Zuo Yizheng Yin Ji said: "King, we can give it according to the amount of equipment they give, and we also have to reserve a lot of food, in case Houjin attacks, we also have military food reserves plus the reserve food of the defenders in various places, so it is easy to deal with!" ”

Everyone nodded, this should be the best measure, everyone thought, but they didn't know that what they were most worried about had happened.
