The first day of February was a sunny day, the morning light had not yet dispersed, and the crowd outside the Chengtian Gate was crowded with people, and the lively scene was more noisy than the opening of a new play in Houdefang. [No pop-up novel network]

"Lao Zhao, are you here too?" People who know each other greet each other.

"There's a lot of fun, can I not come? Have the widows arrived? ”

"Shouldn't it be soon? Seeing that it is the hour, hum, the Son of Heaven is calling, do they dare to be late? ”

"It's hard to say, don't look at those widows who are short and short-legged, but they have a big mouth, just like ...... By the way, just like a toad, I heard that the dead ghost master of the Japanese people who challenged him still has the name of a sword saint in the Japanese country. ”

"Wow! Sword Saint, these Japanese people are really immeasurable, they can play with a few knives, and they dare to call themselves saints! ”

"This time they hit the iron plate, I heard that it was General Zhang, the commander of the Guards, who went to fight!"

Inside the Chengtian Gate is the Forbidden City, which represents the majesty of the royal family, and no one has ever dared to look inside at will. However, the West Garden is open, and Zhengde doesn't care much about these details, so wandering outside the Chengtian Gate, there will no longer be guards to drive them away, and the people in the capital have also relaxed their minds and gathered over.

Of course, they didn't come to see the court, the ceremony was solemn enough, and it had enough traditional charm, but there was nothing lively to see. They all came to the battle before the court, and the people in the capital felt offended that they dared to be disrespectful to the Ming Dynasty.

In essence, the king of the Wa Kingdom has been pulled over, and the attitude of the Wa people is already quite respectful, but the Ming people of this era already have a sense of superiority.

In the past, this sense of superiority was one-sided, but only the scholars and doctors spoke in the empty vernacular, and it was rather illusory, except that the standard of living was indeed higher than that of the neighboring countries, and there was nothing unusual about it. The majesty of the Celestial Empire has always been reflected in the form of spring breeze and rain, and the envoys of the foreign domains came to the Ming Dynasty, not only taking advantage of it, but also enjoying high-standard treatment.

However, in recent years, the situation has been greatly improved, and the superiority of the people of the Celestial Empire has finally been reflected in a concrete way. Korean coolies in Tianjin and Liaodong, the preferential treatment of maritime merchants in the Japanese kingdom, and the Ryukyu envoys who did not take advantage of anything...... Hearing or seeing, people have personally realized that the people of the Ming Dynasty are indeed superior.

Before the victory in Yingzhou, everyone still had hidden worries in their hearts, whenever the enemy in the north entered the city, even if they stayed in the heavily guarded capital, everyone was still frightened. The Son of Heaven guards the country, playing is a heartbeat, the capital is the front line, and the sense of distress dilutes the sense of superiority, and people still feel that they are not at the bottom.

The battle of Yingzhou changed everything, the morale of the Ming people suddenly rose, such a national situation, it is worthy of pride, there is no hidden worry, the Ming people can not bear the recklessness mixed with the respect of the Japanese people. Soon, more and more people joined the topic and expressed their opinions in a gossiping manner.

"Huh? Is that General Zhang who worships the emperor and the marquis? That daring, I heard that General Zhang is eight feet tall, his waist is also eight feet, and his figure is like a small mountain. By the way, to use the latest popular word, it is to crush! ”

"But no, in the Battle of Yingzhou, the Tartars were shameless and attacked from behind, it was this General Zhang who led thousands of people to fight them back! The Modao formation is one after another, killing and injuring opponents one by one, but General Zhang has always been at the front, and there is only one pitcher behind him, do you think about how powerful this must be? ”

"Awesome, awesome! The Mo knife is full of thirty pounds, if I change it, just trying to pick it up, it is already very laborious, if I dance twice, I have to bend my waist, holding the knife and the Tartar cavalry to hedge, and I fought for more than half an hour...... Tsk, could it be that the gods descended to earth, otherwise where did he get such a strong effort? ”

"Not only that, the Mo sword soldiers are all wearing heavy armor, and the armor must be thirty catties!"

"There are so many good things handed down by our ancestors, but unfortunately they have been corrupted by those corrupt officials, it's really ......"

The topic soon changed, and people no longer paid attention to how the Japanese people were, but happily talked about the details of the Yingzhou battle, the Mo sword, the divine arm bow, and ...... Since the news spread, they have talked about similar topics many times, but when they talk about it again, everyone still talks about it, and they will not get tired of saying this kind of topic of pride even if they say it a thousand times.

"Look, the Japanese are coming...... "There was a stirring around the crowd, and people spontaneously gave way to it.

During the Zhengde period, the Ming people did not have any feelings about the Wa Kingdom, although some people had heard of the notoriety of the Wakos, but the disasters caused by the Wakos were too far away from the capital, and it was difficult to impress people.

Moreover, the rebellion did not last long, only during the founding years, when the Ming concentrated their forces in the north, they had the opportunity to take advantage of the void, and the intensity of the disturbance was getting lower and lower. In the Yongle period, the treasure ship went to sea, and the Japanese invaders became extinct in Middle-earth.

That was nearly a hundred years ago, and of course the Ming people didn't have any hatred for the Japanese people, or they didn't even have much of an impression, but they were just very curious about their inadequacy.

"These widows are so strange, I heard that they are short, and men also like to apply grease and powder, but I didn't expect them to like to paint their eye circles black, it's really weird and funny."

"yes, yes."

The Japanese did not appear alone, and the envoys of various countries arrived at the same time. According to the rules, today's Chaohe already has their share.

Listening to the discussion in the crowd, the North Korean envoy Min Zhenghao glanced at the Japanese people, and was very disdainful: these people are really barbarians, and they don't know the times, and they are very contemptuous if they haven't seen the world. Those young ladies in the Kelichun Courtyard are obviously widows! It's just a package, as for the night sheng song to make it like this?

It's really unbelievable, and it's shameful to be in company, hum!

While thinking about it, he was also a little resentful, there are actually a lot of show girls sent by North Korea, but the popularity is much worse, why is this? Obviously, North Korean women are very beautiful, huh? Hou Ye also liked to come back then...... "Tsukahara-kun, the emperor's face is related to the honor and disgrace of the whole world, you should fight, don't fall into the name of Mr. Iishino's sword saint!" ”

"Hey, I'm going to spread the name of Katori Shinto to the whole world and shock the Central Plains!" Tsukahara pressed the hilt of his sword and replied confidently. He walked at the back of the procession, and he was talking to a minister, followed by a young man of about twenty years old, looking at his back, his eyes full of admiration.

"Chaoxiao, today is a rare opportunity, although the Ming people are cowardly, but there are also a lot of secret skills in the thousand-year-old inheritance, they may adopt the wheel warfare method, so you must keep your eyes open and watch carefully." After dealing with the minister, Tsukahara Yasan turned his head and instructed the young man.

"Father, I see." This young man is the adopted son of the Tsukahara family, and his young name is Chaoxiao, and that face does have a mocking effect, but he can be very famous in later generations, Tsukahara Buchuan, and he is also one of the sword saints of the book, and it is also the kind that founded a school.

The venue of the competition is located outside the noon gate, because Zhengde attaches great importance to it, saying that it is to have fun with the people and let more people see it, so a platform was set up high in advance, which can also be seen outside the Chengtian Gate.

Of course, this move is not in line with etiquette, what a sacred ceremony the court will be, before the ceremony, it is already very unreasonable to use knives and guns, and now it is still so exciting, as if the rivers and lakes are performing arts, of course, the courtiers are slanderous.

It's just that no one will raise objections now, those most stubborn and least afraid of death Confucians have already died, and the rest are waiting to be slaughtered, and no one pays attention to these innocuous little things in a panic.

They didn't dare to put forward their opinions, but they didn't want to stay outside the noon gate, so they all ran outside the Taihe Hall early, they couldn't stop it, and they couldn't see it.

Looking at the high platform, Tsukahara was slowly climbing the stairs, and Xie Hong felt that things were a little strange. According to his original plan, this matter doesn't need to be so big, as long as he picks a random time and lets the big black man or Scarface make a move, his purpose is not to show martial arts, but to hit the confidence of the Japanese people and pave the way for the next plan.

Who knew that he inadvertently mentioned it to Zhengde, but it evolved into the current situation, which made him a little uneasy, until he saw Huang Luo's umbrella cover from a distance, and the figure in a dragon robe under the umbrella, he was relieved. As long as the second brother doesn't let him take action in person, the rest, just let him make trouble, it's nothing more than a fun.

Tsukahara has already stepped into the ring, with his hands around and his feet standing still, but there is also a bit of a taste of anger like an abyss pavilion. In the distance, the Huang Luo umbrella cover stopped, and several people in the team walked over quickly.

Among the people who came, the leader was a big black man, dressed energetically, as powerful as ever, but the clothes of the few people next to him were a little abnormal, all dressed like night walkers, black clothes and black pants, and even their heads and faces were wrapped in black scarves.

What the hell is this? Xie Hong was a little confused, and when the big black man suddenly glanced at him, he was even more dazed. The two of them have been mixed together since Beizhuang County, but they don't have any tacit understanding with each other, mainly because the big black man is straight-minded, and he has never had this kind of behavior to convey information through his eyes, so Xie Hong didn't understand it at all.

"Big brother, second ...... The emperor has arranged it, do you think it's time to start? Seeing that Xie Hong didn't react, Zhang Dingyuan was anxious, so he simply asked directly.

"Oh, then you can go up." Xie Hong nodded subconsciously, and when the big black man heard this, he was also relieved, and turned around and went to the ring. It's just that what makes Xie Hong strange is that the few men in black also followed.

Could it be a referee? But I shouldn't have mentioned Samurai to my second brother, right? Xie Hong thought wildly, the referee in the game seems to be dressed like this, maybe this is the rule of the Wa Kingdom, the second brother inquired about it, so it was arranged like this?

Ahh No, it's bad! The chaotic thoughts flashed away, looking at the backs of those black-clothed people, Xie Hong suddenly felt that one of them was a little familiar, no, it should be said that it was very familiar, he understood Zhengde's trick, but the other party had already entered the ring, and it was not so easy to bring people back.

It's not that my brother is not vigilant, but the second brother is too cunning
