Chapter 761: Reward
"Difficult Yu Ping has been traveling for several weeks, and once he was the first to travel. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info earnestly instructed the loyal monarch to do things, and tried his best to destroy the enemy. Knowing that you are returning to Su Zijing, it is not appropriate to be Li Lingqiu. If Shuangtai asks about things in the dust, but the people of Daosi are still worried. On the banquet, Xu Yihou couldn't help but recite the farewell poem he made for Zhu Junwang in the past, and now the Ming Dynasty has defeated Toyotomi Hideyoshi, and the Wa Kingdom can no longer threaten the people of the Ming Dynasty, although Xu Yihou did not receive any reward from the Ming court, but he is already very satisfied.
The Ming court did not say anything, it does not mean that Li You can also ignore it, seeing such an admirable character, Li You of course hopes that the other party can live a better life, and after three rounds of drinking, Li You asked, "This official came here to step on the Satsuma Domain and avenge the death of my Ming soldiers, but I was afraid of disturbing Mr. Xu, so I gave up!" Dare to ask Mr. Xu what are his plans for the future? If he wanted to return to his homeland, he would send a special ship to send Mr. Xu's family back to the Central Plains, and set up a house and a hospital for Mr. Xu, which would be enough to meet Mr. Xu's future needs. ”
Xu Yihou was immediately a little stunned, so many years have passed, he has almost cut off the hope of returning to his hometown, but he didn't expect that today's general from his homeland is willing to send him back, which makes Xu Yihou fall into a difficult choice, on the one hand, he is worried about his homeland for a long time, and on the other hand, he is the wife and children of the Wa country, they have lived here since childhood, and may be able to endure the wind and waves of the ocean? Maybe get used to life in your home country?
In the end, the concern for his wife and children prevailed, and after a while, Xu Yihou sighed, "Thank you for the general's kindness, it's a pity that Xu Mou's stay in the Satsuma Domain is too long, and he has married a wife and had children again, I'm afraid he can't leave here!" However, please rest assured that even if he is in a foreign country, Xu will remember that he is a descendant of China, and he will never dare to forget his homeland, and he will teach his children in the future, so that they must also remember that they are Chinese people. ”
"Mr. Xu is like this, it really makes me admire." Li You only sighed again, as long as he returned to the Central Plains, he could get far more wealth than here, but he gave up because of his concern for his wife and children, such a man who was loyal to his homeland and valued love and righteousness really made them admire, so Li You had to come up with a backup plan, "This official came to the Japanese country to investigate the responsibility of the Toyotomi family who started this war, since the Satsuma Domain has now expressed its submission, the official will not attack Satsuma again, and Mr. Xu can return to the Satsuma Domain to live in peace." ”
"But since Mr. Xu has made such a great contribution to my Huaxia, this official can't help but reward Mr. Xu on behalf of the imperial court." After seeing Xu Yi, he had to refuse, as long as Li You came up with a killer idea, "Mr. Xu must have heard the allusion of 'Zigong ransomes and Zilu receives cattle', right?" ”
In the Spring and Autumn Period, the law of the Lu State stipulated that if the Lu people redeemed the slaves of the Lu State in other countries, they could get the rewards of the Lu State, and many people were rescued because of this, but Zigong redeemed the people but refused the compensation of the state, and was blamed by Confucius, saying that I am afraid that no one will be willing to redeem people after that; After saving a man who had fallen into the water, Zilu received his reward for a cow, but Confucius praised him greatly, and since then there have been more people who have been enthusiastic about saving people; Since ancient times, there have been many doctors in China who are familiar with poetry and books, and Xu Yihou certainly understood this truth, and then was speechless and no longer shirked.
"This official is now canonized by Xu Yi as a hundred households of Jinyi Wei, rewarded with a thousand taels of silver, and built a Yixue in the name of Xu Yihou in Ji'an, Jiangxi, and purchased a number of fields for the needs of Yixue." Li You carried a lot of blank notices given by the Ming Dynasty in advance, and this Jinyi Wei Baihu is not a real job, but a Jilu official, which only means that Xu Yi can enjoy the political treatment of the six products and the Lu, not really join the Jinyi Guard, so it can be easily gifted.
In addition, this thousand taels of silver is for Xu Yihou to live a better life in the Satsuma Domain, as for the final Yixue and Xuetian is considering that Xu Yihou has been unable to return to his hometown, then this Yixue is built for him to make a name for himself in his hometown of Ji'an, and in the future, all the scholars in Ji'an, Jiangxi will be grateful to Xu Yihou for what he has done today, and if he wants to repair the county Zhifu Zhi in the future, it is indispensable to have a chapter after Xu Yi.
Jinyi Wei Baihu represents the court's affirmation of him and the promotion of his personal status, in this era the Ming Dynasty is still the undisputed Celestial Empire in East Asia, Xu Yi has the identity of a Ming official, that is, Shimazu Yoshihisa, they probably do not dare to slack off easily; A thousand taels of silver is a material reward, and this money is enough for Queen Xu Yi to enjoy her old age in peace, and any more given may not necessarily be a good thing; In order to benefit the township, leave a good name and future generations, Li You's three rewards can be said to be thoughtful, and Xu Yi immediately burst into tears of gratitude; Li You originally wanted to tell Empress Xu Yi to pay attention to the Satsuma Domain's covetousness of the Ryukyu Kingdom, but he thought that he had done enough for the Ming Dynasty, and the imperial court really shouldn't ask for more, so he comforted Empress Xu Yi instead.
"Compared with what Mr. has done to Daming, what this official can give is not enough to repay him." If it weren't for Xu Yihou's report, maybe even if the Ming Dynasty could still defeat Toyotomi Hideyoshi's army, its own losses and casualties would be far superior to this, and Li You's words were sincere.
After the reward was read, Li You continued to cooperate with Xu Yi to have a banquet, and at the banquet, he also specially found a few officers from Jiangxi to accompany him, and used the local accent to talk about some things about his hometown, which made Xu Yi cry again; The feast did not end until the sun set, and after the soldiers sent some Ming utensils to Xu Yi, they sent ships to send him back to the Satsuma Domain.
When they learned of the reward Xu Yi received, the Shimazu family did not dare to slack off, and hurriedly wanted to promote Xu Yi to be an official of the Satsuma Domain, but Xu Yi refused on the grounds that he was a doctor, and Shimazu Yoshihisa had to give him a fief of a thousand stones, which was more than double the history of wishing, and then Xu Yi spent his old age in the Satsuma Domain, and finally died.
On the second day, seeing that the speed at which the Satsuma Domain was transporting grain, grass and silver was quite qualified, Li You let down his vigilance, so as not to send a ship to send the captured silver to the capital, so as to show the Wanli Emperor that his hard work during this period was not in vain, in exchange for Wanli's support for him, and asked Zong Yoshichi to invite Shimazu Yoshihisa and Shimazu Yoshihiro brothers to come to the ship to talk.
Now that his plan to intervene in the affairs of the Wa Kingdom has begun, it is time to divide these Daimyo of the Wa Kingdom, if the Five Elders, the Five Councils and the Daimyo of the Nations are united, their more than 30,000 men and horses will be completely insufficient.
