Chapter 28: All for Peace
"Thank you so much!" Aso Jian couldn't help but thank him, and then got up from the ground: "My Emperor of Japan admires your culture very much, and I hope to maintain friendly and exchange relations with your country, and I also hope to be able to introduce some culture from your country to my country, and I hope that Your Majesty will be successful!" ”
"Well said, well said! Isn't it just a few books? I don't have much else, but I have a lot of books! If you want the Sutra or the Tao Te Ching, I will send someone to bring it to you...... Not enough, isn't it? Well, the Four Books and the Five Classics can also be brought back by you...... How is it not enough? "Three Hundred Tang Poems" is also available to you, right? Zhao Zhen said very generously.
Aso's face is still thick, and Bai Na doesn't feel embarrassed: "Your Majesty the Emperor, do you think you can send someone to my country to teach immortal arts?" If you feel troublesome, let us send someone to learn it...... It's really not good, you give us the cheats of immortal arts, and we'll go back and figure it out slowly. In short, please, be sure to give us the fairy magic cheats......"
"Wait a minute!" Zhao Zhen interrupted him rudely: "Immortal arts? What immortal arts? ”
"Uh...... It's what you taught at that royal academy, don't they all call it immortal arts! We just want to learn this, do you think? ”
When Zhao Zhen heard him mention the Royal Academy, he immediately became alert: "Where did you hear about it?" I have so many good things in the Great Song Dynasty, why do you have to learn those? ”
"We are also listening to the emperor's ......" Aso Jiannin realized that he almost leaked his mouth, and immediately stopped, and rolled his eyes: "What the people outside the palace said, yes, that's it." They said that your immortal arts were very powerful, and they also said that you had personally performed the Five Thunder Rectification! You don't know, there is a guy in our Great Japan who has not dealt with our emperor recently, so ...... You get the idea! ”
"Then you mean you want to learn this 'fairy art' and go back to get that disobedient baby?" Zhao Zhen found that it was still fun to tease the little Japanese, and it was not bad to get some information by the way.
"Yes, yes, you're so right!" Aso Jianren felt that the emperor of the Song Kingdom was very understanding, and his brain was good, and he could understand it at all.
"Then tell me first, what is the situation in your country?" Zhao Zhen changed a cup of tea for himself, and also gave Sun Fu a cup, and motioned for him to sit down and listen to the story with him.
"Your Majesty, the general situation of my country in Japan is that the area west of Sekigahara has always been controlled by the Taira clan, and the head of my family, General Minamoto Yorinobu, has helped the emperor to govern the area east of Sekigahara. However, in recent years, the Taira clique has been sharpening its knives in an attempt to conquer the Kanto region, and not only has it not obeyed the emperor's orders, but has the tendency to replace it. I hope that Your Majesty, for the sake of the harmony and friendship between the two countries, can teach me some immortal arts, and teach the Ping clan a lesson......"
Zhao Zhen listened to Aso's key to endure the ink for a long time, and finally figured it out, there was an anti-bone boy in Little Japan, and he was ready to leave the boss and play by himself. The boss had no choice, so he had to find another little brother to help, looking at this, this little brother's character is not good, and it is not good to say that this ** emperor is playing a series of tricks to drive away the wolf and lure the wolf into the house. Since I crossed over by myself, the world has been peaceful for so many years, and I finally have a place to watch a play, so I can interrupt it immorally! You should add more fire!
Zhao Zhen pretended to put on a heavy expression: "I am very sympathetic to your king's plight, and I also severely condemn the immoral behavior of that Ping clan to destroy the peace. However, this immortal art of mine is also given by God, and the reason why it will be taught to me is because God has the virtue of a good life, and I hope that the world will live in harmony, and my Great Song Dynasty is the most peace-loving country in the world, and my Chinese nation is also the most peace-loving nation. Therefore, the heavens do not want these immortals to spread to countries that worship violence and do not love peace...... You know! ”
Aso Jian couldn't help but pick up the conversation without blushing: "Your Majesty, I dare to guarantee that our country of Japan is a peace-loving country, and our Yamato nation is also a peace-loving nation......"
"Stop...... Slut, you're called a slut, right? Don't you see the ox flying in the sky? Zhao Zhen smiled happily.
Aso couldn't understand Zhao Zhen's sarcasm, he really raised his head and looked around: "Your Majesty, I didn't see the cow?" Isn't this a palace on top? ”
"I told you so! I once heard a joke about a Japanese man who said he loved peace, and all the pigs in the world laughed. I don't know if that's true or not, so I'm just putting that aside and talking about something else. You also know that since this immortal art is from heaven, then God must also hope that we can respect God, but you say that your king, what is not good, you have to say that you are the emperor, don't you say that this is against God? ”
Although Aso Jianren felt a little awkward when he heard it, he didn't know how to refute it for a while, so he had to tell Yuan Laiyi about his conversation with Zhao Zhen and ask him to come up with ideas.
After the two chattered a lot, Aso Jianren said to Zhao Zhen again: "Your Majesty, my family asks you, how can you teach immortal arts?" Can you give us some other help for the sake of friendly neighbors? ”
Zhao Zhen pretended to be very embarrassed and said, "This immortal art!" I really can't do anything unless there is no emperor in your country, or if your peace-loving actions can move the heavens, such as giving things to your neighbors, as I have always done. As for the other aspects, I can call the shots to help you, and the Hira clan should also be taught a lesson, and I have decided to sponsor your emperor with 1,000 sets of the most elite individual equipment of my Great Song Dynasty, so as to ensure that you can use one as ten in Japan, what do you think? ”
Aso Jiannin was very excited, the Great Song Emperor is really good, but his brain is not very good, I will just send us so much equipment in two words, if I am sensationalizing a few words, wouldn't it be ...... Well, you can't be too greedy! Besides, the total number of soldiers in our Great Japan is only one or two hundred thousand, and with these thousand sophisticated equipment, we can also make an elite army.
When he translated this to Yuan Laiyi, Yuan Laiyi was also very excited, but after he was excited, he still thought about whether to ask more. This is the difference between the vision of being the boss and being the younger brother, the younger brother is satisfied, the boss is usually not very satisfied, and it is not easy to catch a wronged leader, and he is sorry for running all the way if he doesn't slaughter him.
Minamoto Yoriyi is also poor, and the conventional equipment of the entire Japanese army is not iron or bronze, but bamboo. That's right, except for a very few elite and officers in the Japanese army who can hold a set of iron equipment, most of the rest are with sharpened bamboo poles, and they are also wearing armor made of bamboo chips.
Aso Jian couldn't bear to listen to his boss's words, so he had to continue to cheekily argue with Zhao Zhen: "Thank you for your kindness and kindness to Your Majesty the Emperor!" All of you in Japan will thank you for your great kindness! See if you can help us a little more......"
Sure enough, it's a dog that can't be fed! Zhao Zhen scolded viciously in his heart, but he still smiled happily on his face: "I also know that it is not easy for you emperor, but these things are not for nothing!" This is all the product of the hard work of the people of my Great Song Dynasty, and the thousand sets of equipment I have sent you are under great pressure! You may not know that these thousand sets of equipment are the equipment of my Great Song Forbidden Army, and although it took them a few days, I guarantee that they are all still new. To be honest, if I hadn't decided to disarm this year, I wouldn't have given you any of these things. ”
Minamoto Yoriyi listened to Aso's translation, and his mind began to spin again. Listening to the meaning of the words of the Great Song Emperor, it is either that there is no goods or I don't want to give it away in vain, as long as there is goods, it is easy to say, first find a way to get it, kill the Ping family, and wait for my Yuan clan to unify Japan, these costs are not a thing.
The two muttered for a long time, and Aso Kennin spoke again: "Your Majesty the Emperor, we can also understand your difficulties. Our lord has a reluctant request, and I hope Your Majesty agrees! ”
"Let's talk about it!"
"Didn't you just say that your country wants to be disarmed! We want to make a deal with you, do you want to sell us all this disarmament equipment? ”
"Are you sure you want to buy it? You must know that my Great Song Dynasty will lay off four or five hundred thousand yuan in this disarmament, do you want to finish it? ”
"Forty or fifty...... Lakh! I'll discuss it with the adults again......" Aso's eyes were about to pop out, this Nima Central Plains is terrifying, and people have much more disarmament than us.
This number really stunned Yuan Laiyi, who used to just imagine that the Song Kingdom was very good, but he didn't have any specific feelings, but this disarmament figure is really on the ground, compared to his tens of thousands of subordinates, it is better to kneel directly.
After careful consideration, Minamoto Yoriyi finally considered that it was enough to buy 100,000 yuan, as long as he had these 100,000 equipment, it was definitely not a fantasy to unify his own Great Japan.
Zhao Zhen can only express regret about this, he wanted to sell more, otherwise it would be troublesome to return to the furnace, since people only need 100,000 yuan, it is not easy to sell it, it seems that he has to find a home.
Then, of course, when it comes to the price: "I wonder what you're going to get for these weapons?" ”
This question stumped Yuan Laiyi again, and when he counted his family background, he found that there was really nothing to take. At this moment, a lot of resentment gradually rose in his heart, he resented that the little emperor in front of him was born with so many good things, and he didn't save anything for most of his life, which was very unfair!
Of course, Aso Jianren didn't know his master's dirty thoughts, and he had to do his best to maneuver: "Your Majesty the Emperor, our great Japan is relatively poor, just say that you have something to look at!" ”
Zhao Zhen pretended to think about it: "To be honest, there is really nothing I can look up to in your country!" However, for the sake of your sincerity, I can't say that I won't sell it...... Well, there's a piece of Ezo land to the north of you, and I heard that the fish over there is delicious. Can you let your king build a garden for me there, and when I have time, I can go fishing. Look, can it be done? If I could, I would have given you these weapons out of my own pocket. ”
With such a big matter, Minamoto Yoriyoshi couldn't make up his mind, and whether he could convince the emperor was still a question, but he didn't want to give up this plan, so he whispered to Aso Kenshinobu.
"Your Majesty, my lord said that he agrees with your proposal, but it is not a trivial matter, and he has to go back to report to the emperor. Why don't we go back and ask the emperor first, and then come back to you when we've negotiated...... Time, about three months, do you think it's okay? ”
"In that case, let's drop it like this! It just so happens that it will take some time for me to disarm. If you go early and return early, if it's too late, maybe I'll have to sell these weapons to someone else. The economy is sluggish these years, and my pockets are not abundant, so I have to think about making some extra money, I hope the two of you can understand! ”
"Understand, understand! We will definitely be back soon! ”
This brief meeting between the two countries was a complete success in a friendly atmosphere. Minamoto Yoriyoshi and Aso Kennin embarked on the return journey with a shipload of weapons in a happy and expectant mood......
However, no one noticed that there was one missing person from the Japanese mission.
After sending the Japanese away, the sun began to set, and dusk was approaching, so Sun Fu had time to ask Zhao Zhen his full question: "Your Majesty, why do you want to sell them weapons?" ”
"If you don't sell them weapons, how can they fight, do you really want them to take a bamboo and stab it there slowly!"
"Didn't you just talk to them about peace?"
"Peace? Hum! If they want peace in the world, then they themselves must not be peaceful, this is the truth, know no! In short, I do all this for peace! ”
"I still don't understand! However, what is the use of asking them for a piece of land so far away from my Great Song? ”
"Aiqing come and see" Zhao Zhen got up and went to the desk, took a pen and made a simple stroke: "You see, this is the general appearance of Japan, there is a relatively independent large island in the northernmost part of them, and it should still be inhabited by some primitive tribes." The Yi conquered by the Japanese general refers to these primitive tribes that they call the Ezo people, and there is a lot to be done here! ”
Sun Fu was still at a loss: "You said so much, why don't you understand what you want to do?" ”
Zhao Zhen drew a circle there with a pen, and waved his arms heroically: "I really just want to go fishing there to eat, the taste is really good, and I will invite Aiqing to eat with me when the time comes!" ”
