Chapter 748: Self-Taught Without a Teacher
During the Zhengde period, the specifications of the Korean envoys to the Ming Dynasty were getting higher and higher. [Full text reading]
The first year of Jin Xia's love was just a counselor of Licao, and the one who came later was already a judge, and now he was in the study of Tiangonglou, nodding at Xie Hong, and he had been replaced by Min Zhenghao, the leader of the council.
The status of the leader of the DPRK is similar to that of the chief assistant of the Ming Dynasty, and under normal circumstances, it is not his turn to go on such an errand anyway. However, the world is impermanent, the kings of the Wa Kingdom have come, and there is nothing that the Korean leader can't come, and as long as he listens to Min's words, you can know how he is willing.
"Master Hou, in fact, the king of our country has always admired the Ming Dynasty, but he has not been summoned, so he does not dare to come without permission, if he had known that this was ......"
Min someone wants to show his loyalty, but this is easy to be misunderstood as complaining, so he hesitated slightly, peeked at Xie Hong's expression, and saw the smile on the other party's face, so he let go of his thoughts and continued: "I knew this was the case, the king of our country was also coming, and it was a supreme honor for the whole of Korea to be able to participate in the concubine ceremony of the great tomorrow!" ”
"Lord Min's sincerity, Ben Hou has already understood, His Royal Highness Li Yi is coming, there will be opportunities in the future, there is no need to worry about it, but the problem of going to Ming to work, Min Yizheng has to worry a lot." Xie Hong said lightly.
ordered Shengren to go to Mingming, he had some calculations, and the national conditions of North Korea were different. What this country is best at is to be submissive, and now that the conquest of North Korea is on track and is in perfect operation, it is impossible to make that effort, and the other party wants to come, but he is too lazy to entertain it.
"Yes, yes, Master Hou just rest assured." Being a dynasty is also very technical, this can be seen from Min Yizheng, the dialogue between him and Xie Hong has not been translated, he speaks fluent Chinese, the words are correct and round, it is hard to believe, he learned it in just two years, or how to say, pressure brings motivation, and motivation turns into strength.
"Alright, you go down." Xie Hong waved his hand very casually, as if chasing flies.
"Yes......" Min Yizheng responded, but he didn't move under his feet, Xie Hong felt strange, and when he raised his eyes, he saw that the other party's face was mixed with flattery and hesitation, and he looked like he wanted to say something but didn't dare to speak.
"Anything else? Suffice it to say, Ben Hou has always been convinced by virtue, especially for peace-loving international friends like Lord Min, Ben Hou has always respected him. ”
"Hou Ye's generous heart, the villain really feels the five inner ......"
Min Yizheng quickly put on a grateful expression, babbled a few words, and saw Xie Hong showing an impatient look, so he cautiously got to the point: "In addition to the king, there are many people in our country who admire the majesty of the Celestial Empire, and the villain is also one of them, and the villain heard that Liaodong ......."
"Oh?" Xie Hong raised his eyebrows and asked a little playfully, "You also want a green hat?" Who do you plan to entrust the matter of North Korea to? ”
"Qi Hou Ye, the villain is deeply favored by Hou Ye, how dare he not do his best to Hou Ye's entrustment? It's just that the villain said that he had gone to the Royal Academy to open his eyes, and he was even more impressed by the style of Tianjing, so he wanted the children of the family to come to Tianjing to be slightly edified, so that they could grow up a little...... This, a little selfishness of the villain, made Hou Ye smile. ”
"Well, that's how it ......" Xie Hong nodded, sure enough, the ancients were lagging behind later generations in terms of science and technology, but in other aspects, they were still excessive. His actions may have given some inspiration, but fundamentally speaking, this excellent system was completely thought up by Min Yizheng himself.
Naked officials in the Middle Ages? Hehe, bureaucrats are really interesting creatures.
"Okay, Ben Hou will promise you on behalf of the emperor, first give you five green hats, and when you make meritorious contributions in the future, you can increase it, and then Lord Min should work hard."
Xie Hong's generous promise made Min Yizheng overjoyed, he knelt on the ground again, and saluted again and again: "Thank you for your grace, thank you for your magnanimity, the villain must work hard to serve and contribute to the prosperity of the Celestial Empire." ”
"Very well, that's all for today."
"Yes, the villain retires ......" The wish was fulfilled, Min Yizheng went downstairs proudly, but his face still had that humble expression, and now he is still on the land of the Hou Ye, if he is too proud, he will inevitably look a little frivolous, and will be looked down upon by the Hou Ye, Min Zhenghao has been in the Korean political arena for many years, of course, he will not make such a low-level mistake.
He didn't squint, but someone had an idea of him, Tiangonglou didn't do any soundproofing measures, and when Min was loyal, his voice was quite loud, so Lin Han also heard a lot of content, and when he saw Min Zhenghao, Old Man Lin's mood was also quite complicated.
He originally thought that even if he was very knowledgeable about current affairs, he would be able to put down the shelf, but the strong have their own strong players, and compared to the quality in this regard, he is far worse than his colleagues in North Korea. In addition to being ashamed, he also had a more accurate guess about the purpose of this mission.
During this mission, his main task was to examine the relations between the two countries and, by the way, in accordance with the strategy explained by Wang Shouren, he formulated an international law with Confucian characteristics. The above entries are not yet perfect, but they are generally formulated in line with the original Confucian policy of internal consideration.
In other words, the foreign policy of the Ming Dynasty will be reasonable, but it will talk about the rules set by the Ming Dynasty itself.
As for the Japanese state, it is now in the process of training both hard and soft, and North Korea is what it looks like after it has been trained to a certain extent. Whether North Korea is the ultimate state, Lin Han still does not dare to assert that the bureaucrats have no lower limit, and he really does not know how far they can go, but what is certain is that the Japanese state is moving closer to North Korea in an all-round way.
And through this grand court meeting, this unreliable international law will be spread to all directions. The East China Sea, the Western Regions, and the South Seas, with different purposes, but all of them have envoys arriving, uh, it seems that the northern frontier has to be included, although no envoys have arrived from Tatar and Warat, but people from the Duoyan Department have come.
Where the new foreign policy will lead the Ming Dynasty, Lin Han has no way of being sure, but he can be sure. If those vassal states that come today and those who have not come but are known are trained to be the same as North Korea, then, in the next few decades, the Ming Dynasty will achieve a goal that China has never achieved for thousands of years, that is, to truly dominate the world.
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a shudder, he had lived such a long time and was in a high position, but he had never even thought about such a grand goal. I really don't know how the young man I am about to meet has such an ideal, how he has the corresponding confidence to achieve it, and he doesn't care about the follow-up troubles after achieving it.
He didn't believe that Xie Hong didn't expect that after the expansion, how to control the overseas territory. Not to mention the past, just talking about the policy towards the Japanese state, Xie Hong has made enough preparations, and the plans are also interlocking, calculating the various reactions of the Japanese people, and playing with them in the palm of his hand.
The problems he thought of, presumably the other party also had a solution, and he really couldn't help but be impressed, especially when he stepped into the study and saw this famous boy for the first time, the amazement in his heart was even more incomprehensible.
"Lord Lin, how did the Japanese people react?" Xie Hong's virtue is to convince people, and for the traditional scholars, he did not plan to be surrounded by Corporal Lixian, but he just put on a business-like posture.
"Back to the Hou Ye, along the way, the reaction of the Japanese people is expected...... In terms of etiquette, they were a little reluctant, so the lower officials took the opportunity to implicate the matter with the fight, and asked the Hou Ye to forgive his subordinates for their arbitrariness. Lin Han bowed down and respectfully recounted the envoy process.
"It's okay, it's going to be a fight anyway, let them know it's awesome." A cold light flashed in his eyes, and then he was gone, Xie Hong sneered slightly: "Tell them that the competition is scheduled for the day of the court meeting on the first day of the second lunar month, before that, you go to Tang Yushi and ask him to assign a few people to take those Japanese people to walk around the capital, so that they can appreciate the superior surname of the Ming Dynasty." ”
"However, after the court meeting, the emperor didn't want to ...... Before the happy event, if you see the blood, wouldn't it be ......" Lin Han hesitated a little.
"Hehe, anyway, I want to see blood that day, not much more, the emperor won't care about these subsections, killing people is not a good thing, but killing devils and killing beetles is a great good thing, the more you kill, the more festive." The meaning of the words was murderous, but Xie Hong's tone was light.
"Lord Lin doesn't need to worry about these trivial matters, just improve international law as soon as possible, and go to the Ministry of Rites if you want manpower, Lord Zhou will definitely be happy to help, and before the court meeting, you must come up with a relatively complete first draft."
However, Lin Han suddenly became nervous, and cold sweat began to break out on his forehead. I don't know if it's his delusion, he feels that the moment Xie Hong said that he killed someone, his eyes suddenly became sharp, as if he was scrutinizing, and as if he was warning. When the gaze fell on him, he only felt cold, as if he was about to be frozen.
"Yes, Master Hou, the lower officials must change their past mistakes and work hard to serve the emperor and the court." With a cold sweat and an uneasy heart, Lin Han left the Ordnance Division. Although he had just arrived in the capital and did not know much about the specific situation here, he still understood Xie Hong's implication, and the liquidation was indeed in front of him, and it would be carried out in a rather drastic way.
The sorrow brought by the death of some rabbits and foxes is more of a blessing and joy, and some wonder, the superior surname of the Ming Dynasty? Has this journey been reflected in a lot? Not to mention those Japanese people, even he, the scholar of Nanjing, was shocked a lot. Moreover, the person in charge of the reception was also replaced, so that Tang Yushi took over? What is the truth of this?
Lin Han was a little puzzled, but he didn't bother much, for him, the most important thing is to sort out the entries of international law, and other things can be put aside, now it is only three days before the first day of February, and the time is very tight.
