Chapter 143: A Break
The weather in Kyoto is still good, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu respectfully led Zheng He and the others forward, but his heart began to recall everything that happened just now, the leading messenger actually called Hou Komatsu the emperor, didn't he say that the Ming Dynasty did not allow it?
The title of Emperor of Japan has been coming from for a long time, but only the Song Dynasty called the king of Japan the emperor, and it was only because Song Taizong had a good impression of Japan, but after the founding of the Ming Dynasty, the founding emperor Zhu Yuanzhang was full of disgust with Japan, and the title of King of Japan was restored when he was canonized.
Could it be that this gang is fake?! It's impossible, there is no one else around Japan who can dispatch such a big battle except for the Ming Dynasty.
When he walked to Emperor Komatsu's residence behind the Kyoto Imperial Palace, Hua Zhong's leg was about to break, but he would rather break it than ride those deformed, dwarfed horses and dirty ox carts.
The Japanese horses were all looted from Korea, and after several generations of immature crossbreeding, the appearance was indeed very unbearable.
The Imperial Palace in Kyoto has a Tang style, or the whole of Kyoto reveals the style of the Tang Dynasty.
Zheng He raised his head to catch a falling cherry blossom, it was hard to imagine that such a beautiful plant would grow in such a place, "What kind of tree is this?" ”
"Messenger, this is a cherry blossom tree."
Zheng He nodded, turned back to Sixiong and said, "When I left, I dug up this piece completely, such a good thing, why didn't I have it?" ”
Si Xiong licked his lips, "Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will definitely dig not a single tree left." "Of course, this thing may not be without the Ming Dynasty, but after the adults finished speaking, of course, there was no one left to dig, and the four bears were a little sorry, how could such a beautiful thing grow in Japan?
The appearance of Ashikaga Yoshimitsu in the emperor's palace is simply a strange news. The samurai guarding the door nervously pulled out the Notai sword, that is, the katana. The katana is a general term for the type of Japanese sword, and the Japanese sword is disorganized, and there are all kinds of knives, but in the Japanese army. Commonly used or notai knife.
Zheng He looked at Ashikaga Yoshimitsu with a smile, "You are really popular!" ”
"This ・・・・・・"
Zheng He directly interrupted Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, "Someone! ”
"Yes!"
"Open the door for me, and I'll see who dares to stop my Ming Emperor's holy decree!" Zheng He held the holy decree high above his head, "Those who dare to stop it, kill!" ”
"Whoa!" The two warriors guarding at the gate couldn't understand Zheng He and the others at all, and watched Si Xiong walking towards him with a few Chaoyang Tang disciples menacingly, and howled without saying a word, beckoning for helpers.
The two samurai were like great enemies. "Lower-level samurai must break into the palace and protect His Majesty the Emperor!" After shouting, he rushed over with a wild knife.
The corners of Ashikaga Yoshiman's mouth hooked, these two stupid samurai actually thought that Zheng He and the others were lower-level samurai?! Ridiculous, have you ever seen a low-ranking samurai dressed so gorgeously?!
Zheng He couldn't understand what the two warriors were saying, but someone did, and Jiang Li, the prisoner of the Guozijian, translated the warrior's words in Zheng He's ear in a whisper.
Jiang Li volunteered to come to Japan, and as soon as he heard that someone who could speak Japanese was needed, he begged the prince to let him go.
The sacrificial wine really couldn't stand Jiang Li's begging. recommended Jiang Li to Zhu Di, so Jiang Li got his wish.
Jiang Li wanted to enter Honglu Temple as an official. He naturally likes to deal with people, and it is his dream to become the second class super. A few words made people frightened, and his family and country were shattered, which made him extremely worshipful.
Zheng He still admires Jiang Li, a young man, and when he knows that Jiang Li already has many like-minded friends, Zheng He is even more pleased.
Qi Jing once talked to Zheng Hechang about diplomacy. Zheng He objected to Qi Jing's proposed colonial policy, but agreed with Qi Jing's policy toward foreigners.
"The Ming Dynasty must maintain absolute control over the surrounding countries and have enough deterrence against distant countries to ensure peace around the Ming Dynasty." This is Qi Jing's original words, and Zheng He agrees very much. But he didn't ask Qi Jing how to absolutely control the surrounding countries, he knew that Qi Jing's method must be particularly simple and crude.
Zheng He was stunned for a moment when he heard Jiang Li's translation, how could a lower-level samurai dare to storm the emperor's residence, Japan, there is really no outline law! This king of Japan is also a piece of waste! Waste the canonization title of the Ming Dynasty in vain!
This cannot be blamed on the inaction of the emperor of Japan, it is also the trend of the times, and now it is the shogunate that really rules Japan, and the rights of the emperor have long been hollowed out. The rise of the shogunate and the fall of the emperor's power led to the phenomenon of 'going down and going up' in Japan, and the samurai class no longer regarded the emperor in their eyes, and even drew their swords against each other when they disagreed.
Emperor Go-Komatsu may not be able to change the situation even if he tries his best.
The four bears smiled fiercely, waved their hands to stop the two special combat team members behind them, rubbed their feet on the ground, and rushed over as soon as their bodies moved, and the two samurai held the Notai knife with both hands and slashed at the head of the four bears, and the four bears pulled out the waist knife with their backhands, and went straight to the head, and the Notai knife and the waist knife collided fiercely. 、
The two samurai only felt a strong force coming from the Notai sword, and the two of them staggered back two steps, and the tiger's mouth was cracked.
The four bears licked their lips, and there were two little chicks, twisting their necks, and just as they wanted to rush up, they saw a bald little monk quietly poking his head out of the gate of the palace.
Sixiong was stunned for a moment and glanced back at Zheng He.
"Ikyu!" Ashikaga Yoshimitsu frowned, "This is the messenger of the Ming Dynasty, don't be rude!" ”
The little monk called Yixiu scratched his bald head, looked at Zheng He curiously, and said in the language of the Ming Dynasty, "Are you the messenger of the Ming Dynasty?"
Zheng He saw that it was a child, so he smiled and said, "That's right, I am the messenger of the Ming Dynasty, boy, who did you learn the language of the Ming Dynasty?" ”
Yixiu scratched his bald head again, "It was Sister Cauliflower who taught me, since you are the messenger of the Ming Dynasty, then please come in!" After Ichishu finished speaking, he pushed open the wooden door of the palace.
Seeing this, the four bears took two steps forward and grabbed the back of Ikyu's collar, "This door, open like this!" The four bears kicked on the wooden door, but the two-meter-high wooden door fell backwards, and many of the samurai who had gathered behind the wooden door were smashed.
Zheng He saw the door open, smiled appreciatively at the four bears, although he didn't bring many people, but he couldn't fall into the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, tidied up his clothes, and just took a step, he saw Ashikaga Yoshimitsu coming over.
"Your Excellency, Messenger." Ashikaga Yoshiman bowed down and said, "That little monk, called Ikyu, is said to be the illegitimate son of Hou Komatsu, don't look at his young age, there are a lot of thoughts in his heart, adults don't have to be deceived by him." (To be continued.) )
