Chapter 1124: The Covenant
Ye Chunqiu found that he enjoyed dealing with Ashikaga Yoshisai. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Ashikaga Yoshisai is a person who can judge the situation very well, such a person can be regarded as a smart person, and to Ye Chunqiu, dealing with smart people can save a lot of lips and tongues.
If the strength of the Zhenguo Mansion and the Shogunate were equal, Ye Chunqiu might have been wary of Ashikaga Yoshisai, but now that the Zhenguo Mansion was completely overwhelmed by the strength of the sailors, Ye Chunqiu was very convinced that this was enough to make Ashikaga Yoshisai bow his head convincingly.
This kind of feeling, Ye Chunqiu really feels good.
Early the next morning, the priests of the Wa Kingdom began to set up in the bay.
This was once the place where the Takeda family was destroyed, but now, it has been placed in a similar shape to a dojo, and the students of the Zhenguo New Army landed with rifles on their backs, with three steps and one post, and five steps and one sentry.
Two or three hundred daimyo and guardians, at this time knelt and sat here, waiting with bated breath, and the priests began to chant, although what they sang was indistinguishable, they danced back and forth in the costumes of the priests, and their long sleeves fluttered, like ghosts and gods, and most of the movements were nothing more than sacrifices, prayers, and blessings.
The red cloth stretched from the beach to the dojo, and when Ye Chunqiu landed, he stepped on the red carpet, with the sound of the tide behind him, and here, two Japanese warriors knelt on both sides, Ye Chunqiu even suspected that these two guys might assassinate themselves, but all the while, they just knelt silently and hung their heads.
So Ye Chunqiu continued to walk forward, slowly walking along the red carpet to the dojo, only to see that here, there was already a book case, on the long case, there was a pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and the paper had been written in Chinese and Japanese.
Ashikaga Yoshisai knelt on the side of the long case, Ye Chunqiu walked over, and the daimyo and the guards on both sides bowed their heads one after another, which was obviously the same as the etiquette for the general of Zhengyi, and Ashikaga Yoshisai got up, he wore a kimono, took out a coat of arms, and sent it to Ye Chunqiu.
This is a flower rhombus coat of arms, which represents the original guardian of the Takeda clan here, and now, the Takeda clan has disappeared since then, replaced by Ye Chunqiu.
Ye Chunqiu put the silk cloth embroidered with the coat of arms on the oil lamp in front of the case, and the coat of arms was immediately burned to ashes by the fire, which also meant that the last bit of evidence left by the Takeda family in this world had disappeared.
There were two futons in front of the long case, Ye Chunqiu sat down first, and Ashikaga Yoshisai sat on the other side, and then the two of them took up the pen together and signed each of them on this covenant.
The Wa Kingdom claims to be the Kingdom of God, although this is nonsense, but all sacrifices or covenants are mostly a little mythical, and the content of the covenant, in addition to the three articles proposed by Ye Chunqiu, is a supplement to some details.
If Ye Chunqiu changed this speed wave to Osaka, the reason can only be described as capricious, maybe it is the name of speed wave that makes Ye Chunqiu feel a little obscene, weird, or Osaka in later generations makes him feel familiar.
As for the three main covenants, it probably laid the direction of the future of the town and the government, ceding land, saying that it is a colony, or a settlement, anyway, no matter what it is called, since it is necessary to trade, the laws of various countries are too complicated for merchants, after all, the customs of various places are different, and disputes may arise at any time, so it is necessary to directly open up a port, and what will be done here will be the trade laws of the town and the government, naturally, the most important thing is that such a port does not need to pay taxes to the Japanese state. This is completely reassuring for everyone.
In addition, in the near future, the town government may station a military horse here, both to protect its own settlements and, if necessary, to intervene in the current situation of the Wa Kingdom, and since it is determined to support the Muromachi shogunate, it is always necessary to keep its promises.
As for the indemnity of five million taels of silver, it was Ye Chunqiu's plan, the Zhenguo Mansion needed silver, and went to sea, if he didn't go back with the silver, then what was the point of going to sea?
To put it mildly, after all, everyone is not doing good deeds, once this huge amount of compensation reaches the Ming Dynasty, it must be an ideological impact.
Ye Chunqiu signed his name, which can be regarded as a formal conclusion of the covenant, Ashikaga Yoshisai is face was full of red light, and then knelt and sat down and bowed deeply to Ye Chunqiu, and Ye Chunqiu returned the salute, but this is ......
How does it feel a bit like a husband and wife's chapel?
Okay, it almost made Ye Chunqiu think about the topic, and when Ye Chunqiu and Ashikaga Yoshisai both sat up straight, the daimyo on both sides bowed down one after another, bowed deeply, and the priest began to chant again.
Immediately, the dancing girl came on stage, painted heavy makeup, and began to improvise the dance.
Ye Chunqiu held back and reluctantly looked at it, but found that many of the Zhenguo New Army students guarding here showed a little hungry expression.
This...... It's easy to understand that a man adrift at sea is probably coveted by even a cow.
However, Ye Chunqiu is not worried about them, the military orders of the Zhenguo New Army are extremely strict, which can be described as prohibitive, and their endurance, through daily drills, has long been extraordinary, this temptation can be admitted.
Ashikaga Yoshisai on the side leaned down slightly, and said to Ye Chunqiu: "If the town is interested......
Ye Chunqiu pursed his lips and said with a smile: "The general's good intentions should have been disrespectful, but I share weal and woe with the generals, so I don't have to." ”
Ashikaga Yoshisai didn't say anything more, just smiled lightly.
In the past few days in the Wa Kingdom, Ye Chunqiu wanted to have a glimpse of the scenery here, after all, it was a foreign country, and it was rare to come here.
However, knowing that most of the monuments here have been blown to pieces, Ye Chunqiu had no choice but to shake his head, Ashikaga Yoshisai almost every once in a while to come to the island, asking to see Ye Chunqiu, he knew very well the necessity of building a good relationship with Ye Chunqiu, and ...... He has already tasted a little sweetness, at least those big names don't dare to be presumptuous with themselves anymore.
More than 200 big names, now whoever dares to take the lead will fight whom, and this kind of beating is by no means like the Japanese attacking each other, today you pull out a fortress for me, tomorrow I will beat you a village, but a real artillery to wash the ground, destroy you all over the door, in the country of the Japanese, even if it is your enemy, people also recognize your surname and identity, but for the Ming people, you are just an ant.
Because of this, the daimyo knew that Ashikaga Yoshisai, who had been protected by the town government, could not be underestimated, and it seemed that they had reorganized the shogunate, and they probably showed a more deferential attitude towards the ruler of the Ashikaga family.
Ashikaga Yoshisai hadn't enjoyed such a feeling for a long time, and he was pleased to find that he had hit the ground running, and the rise of the shogunate seemed to be in sight. (To be continued.) )
