It's December, and the weather is slowly getting colder. China won a great victory in this war, and the people of the empire were able to live a peaceful and stable year. However, the government has announced that large-scale migration will be carried out next year, especially on the Loess Plateau, in order to protect the fragile ecology. Afforestation will also be adopted to maintain soil erosion on the Loess Plateau. Together with the migration of other provinces with many other people, the imperial government planned to gradually emigrate 100 million people over the next five years, enriching the Siberian region in the north, Central Asia in the west, and the South Seas and Alaska. Although, many people who need to leave their hometowns are a little worried, and at the same time, more are reluctant to give up their hometown. But the emperor Wang Yuze personally assured everyone that all the immigrants would live a better life, which made the people of the empire feel a lot more at ease.

The situation in Japan has also stabilized. The Japanese army was all disbanded. All the captives were taken into custody and all their weapons were confiscated. Under the high-pressure management of the squadron, Japanese society has become unprecedentedly stable. In addition, the famine that is currently going on in Japan is being improved by the Chinese government. First, the navy lifted the blockade of Japan, and Japanese fishing boats could go out to sea to fish in order to increase food. In addition, the Chinese government sold 300,000 tons of rice to Japan at a price of 0.2 Chinese yuan per catty, for a total price of 120 million Chinese yuan. These grains can effectively alleviate the current famine in Japan. Although, Japan has no money to repay now, so it can only owe it first. But now that China is so powerful, Japan does not have the courage to pay its debts. In addition, all of these rice were captured by the emperor's ** team in the South Seas, and without spending a penny, they obtained a profit of 120 million Chinese yuan, which can be regarded as generating revenue for the imperial finances. In addition, in China, the price of rice is only 4 to 5 cents a catty, and it is a big profit to sell it directly to Japan at four or five times the price.

What is even more ridiculous is that the whole of Japan is very grateful for China's actions. The attitude of extreme hatred of China has also changed. Previously, China's garrison in Japan was frequently attacked by the Japanese, and although many Japanese were executed as a result, it was still impossible to completely ban it. But after China sold so much grain to Japan, the incidents of Japanese attacks on garrisons were significantly reduced.

The Japanese are naturally good at surrendering to the strong, and many Japanese have already accepted their fate. Now that Japan has lost the war, the people still have to live. So, it's better to live honestly. This concept is very popular in Japan, and it is what both the new Japanese government and China want to see.

A merchant ship sailing on the Yellow Sea, a merchant ship transporting grain to Japan. However, on the way back to China from Japan, the ship was carrying guests from Japan. These people have a noble status. One of them, a young man in his twenties, was even more respected by the others. These people are none other than the new head of the Japanese government who went to China to prepare for negotiations with China, and that young man is none other than Japan's current Japanese king, Yoshihito. Although he succeeded as the Japanese king, he had not yet accepted the canonization of the Chinese emperor Wang Yuze, and now he is still unjustifiable. This time, the new prime minister of Japan's government, Saionji Konozo, and Saigo Congdao went to China to negotiate, and they happened to take him with them.

Like Emperor Meiji, Kahito was in very poor health and suffered from encephalopathy, which made him arrogant and arrogant since childhood, irritable, and easily excited, and when he was unhappy, he would whip his attendants with a horsewhip. Moreover, he was a Western admirer, and he wore Kaiser Wilhelm's horned mustache covered with petroleum jelly; He dressed like a German cavalryman, often riding a tall horse on a rampage through the palace. The reason why he was able to become Wawang was because he was the only son of Emperor Meiji who lived to adulthood. Therefore, even if he is not a qualified candidate for the throne, he can only be succeeded by him.

On the way from Japan to Beijing, Jiaren very much wanted to see the sea from the deck, even if the wind and waves were strong. Kahito, who was originally irascib, became silent after the death of Emperor Meiji. He knew very well what had happened that night at the Imperial Palace in Kyoto. Emperor Meiji was killed, Empress Miko was **, and his sister was also **, all of which he knew clearly. However, Japan's new prime minister, Kinobu Saionji, and Minister of the Interior, Saigo Nomichi, both warned him not to talk about these things, otherwise he would be killed. Since then, Jiaren's personality has completely changed and become more gloomy.

"Your Highness, it's windy outside, let's go back to the cabin!" The public hope of Xiyuan Temple didn't know when he appeared by Jiaren's side.

Jia Ren stubbornly shook his head, and the public hope of Xiyuan Temple had no choice but to give up. The ship they were on was nothing more than an ordinary merchant ship. The accommodation conditions are also very poor, and Kahito, as the crown prince of Japan, has always lived a life of fine clothes and food, which makes him very dissatisfied.

"Your Highness, we will arrive in Tianjin, China in three days. When the time comes, the Chinese emperor will receive us. You need to pay tribute to the Emperor of China! Xiyuan Temple Gongwang reminded.

"Why? Why did Japan submit to China? The people of China killed my father and returned my current sister and **! Jiaren suddenly became very angry.

The Duke of Xiyuan Temple suddenly covered Jiaren's mouth, and hurriedly said: "Your Highness, stop quickly, there are Chinese on the ship." Your Highness must consider the entire Yamato nation, and from now on, you must be patient! ”

After listening to the words of the public hope of Xiyuan Temple, Jiaren forcibly suppressed his anger, but his eyes were still red. It took a while for him to calm down completely.

"Duke, you sue me, is there any hope for Japan? Do I have a chance to avenge my father and mother? Jiaren said softly.

"Your Highness, it's not completely out of the void of opportunities. However, the chances are very slim. In this war, China defeated the world's five major powers with the strength of one country. In terms of national strength alone, it is not inferior to Britain, the world's largest power. Even the Western powers are no match for the Chinese, let alone Japan. Xiyuan Temple Gongwang said.

After taking Xiyuan Temple's words, Jiaren's eyes were full of loneliness.

"But, Your Highness! Although China led to the war, it also completely offended Britain, France, the United States, and Russia. In the future, China and the Western powers will definitely have a war. When the time comes, if China loses, it will be our chance. If China had not been defeated but had continued to win, then Japan would have had no choice but to endure forever and follow behind China forever. In this way, we can guarantee that Japan will not be destroyed. Although this is very sad, I have to admit that this is the fate of a small country! Xiyuan Temple Gongwang said. He saw very clearly that if China declined, Japan would still have a chance. If China does not fall, then Japan can only wag its tail and beg for mercy in front of China. Otherwise, Japan will be destroyed by China.

Jiaren nodded, and once again regained his composure. He could only pray in his heart, praying that China would not remain strong.

Although there are many brain-dead people in Japan, there are also people of insight. These people, after this war, have already seen that China's strength is irreversible. In this war, Japan lost everything. If Japan is not destroyed, it can only compromise with China and become dependent on China. Perhaps, Japan can also take advantage of China's growing strength to gain some benefits.

On the morning of 9 December, the Japanese Emperor Jiaren and his entourage arrived in Tianjin, and the Chinese Ministry of Foreign Affairs sent officials to meet them in Tianjin. After disembarking, change to a train to Beijing. Along the way, the Japanese Wawang Jiaren focused his attention on the outside of the car window. When the train left the city, all I saw was an industrial area lined with factories, and thick chimneys were billowing smoke. This may pollute the environment, but it is a powerful example of this era. The same is true of Japan in the past. It's just that in this war, Japan has already lost everything.

Along the way, the Japanese king Kahito saw the situation in China and compared it with Japan. There is no doubt that China is more dynamic now, while Japan is like a seriously ill person. Moreover, he was directly beaten into a cripple, and there is no possibility of recovery. This forced Kahito to hide his anger against China, knowing that if the Chinese discovered his dissent, not only would his life be threatened, but Japan would be unlucky. The Chinese even dare to kill the emperor, let alone him, a king who has just ascended the throne and has not yet been canonized.

When the train arrived in Beijing, it was already afternoon. That night, Wang Yuze held a banquet in Xinhua Palace to entertain the king and his party. The banquet was attended by important Chinese cabinet ministers and military magnates.

After being brought into the Xinhua Palace by the guards, the elegance and beauty of the Chinese Imperial Palace made Jia Ren feel very shocked, which was much better than their Japanese Imperial Palace. The Imperial Palace in Kyoto has a long history, but it looks dilapidated. After all, the Imperial Palace in Tokyo is the residence of the former shogunate, and the layout seems to be a little inadequate, far from being comparable to the Chinese Imperial Palace. What's more, this Xinhua Palace is at least a palace that has just been built for a few years, and if it is the Forbidden City, then the Japanese Imperial Palace is even more incomparable.

"Perhaps, this is the difference between the great powers!" The Japanese king said secretly in his heart. (To be continued.) If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe (this site), reward, your support is my biggest motivation. For mobile phone users, please go to m. to read on this site. )
