Chapter 1151: Dad
In the amazed eyes of everyone, Ashikaga Yoshisai actually stepped forward to pay a great salute to Zhu Houzhao. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
At this time, he still bowed down at the foot of the jade steps, and then said: "Since the opening of Japan, all of them have been asked by Shangbang. Morality is fortunate to be in the country, and there is no danger at home......"
When these words came out, what people felt was not surprise, but horror.
It has been a thing for a long time since the Wa Kingdom gradually got out of control, after all, the Wa State was isolated overseas, and compared with the Korean vassal states, both the population and the land area were enough to be self-contained.
It is precisely because of this that the attitude of the Ming Dynasty towards the Japanese State is that as long as you don't make trouble, it is fine, so among the envoys, the Japanese are the most arrogant and domineering.
Last time, the imperial court finally expelled the Japanese envoys, and the two sides officially severed contacts, but Ashikaga Yoshisai, the king of the Japanese country, now came to Daming in person, and his humble attitude is really incredible.
Since the opening of Japan, all of them have asked the upper state, which not only recognizes the status of the Ming Dynasty and the heavenly kingdom, but also talks about the ...... since ancient times. Since ancient times, if any major event occurs in the country, it must first be approved by the Heavenly Empire, so that it will dwarf itself, even to the point of bending its knees and servile face, I can't wait to say, Dad, I am your son, I have been your son since ancient times, don't you deny it.
Zhu Houzhao was extremely shocked at first, and then a little speechless.
Occasionally, there will be the king of the vassal country to come to the Ming Dynasty, but they are all small countries in Nanyang, it is said that the population is only tens of thousands, to put it bluntly, the name is the king, saying that they are the chiefs of a tribe can afford them, and this kind of small country, is to pick up cheap, most of them, there is no culture, many people live in Beijing, they refuse to go back.
Why? Because in their country, although he is a king, his mother still lives in a thatched hut, and maybe his ministers are still working on trees.
And the Wa State is completely different, this is a vassal country with a large number of individuals, the national strength is not even lower than Annam, and the cultural level of the people is also high, especially the level of Chinese, even the choice of words and sentences, it is comfortable to listen to.
Ashikaga Yoshisai said at this time: "The previous minister sent an envoy, the envoy did not see the Ming Dynasty, and angered His Majesty the Emperor, so that the upper state cut off the lower country exchanges, the minister was sincerely afraid, unable to sleep at night, the upper state is the lower country parents, the minister lost his parents, like a lonely son overseas, lost the news of his parents, so his heart was burning, mourning, weeping like rain......"
Isn't it a bit ...... Stinky and shameless?
Mo said that it was Zhu Houzhao, but a few eunuchs standing on the side, they couldn't help but want to scold in their hearts, they had never seen such a shameless one, and they had never seen such a shameless one.
Do you really think of yourself as a son?
If the first sentence is only vague, the second sentence is completely brazen.
This time, there was an uproar again.
Countless people looked at Ashikaga Yoshisai in shock, and saw that he was really sad and inexplicable, and he was also drunk.
Is there such a shitty one?
Not really......
Could it be that he was threatened by Ye Chunqiu?
But it's not right, Ye Chunqiu can threaten, but in front of the Son of Heaven, why does he still listen to Ye Chunqiu's instructions? Now is a good time for him to come and cry, wouldn't it be good to beat Ye Chunqiu here fiercely?
Many people even think, the surname Ye is the one who killed your people and destroyed your city, is it okay to have a little interest?
Liu Daxia's face was tense and he didn't say a word, but his heart sank a little, he felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure out what the problem was for a while.
Liu Daxia is very clear about the Japanese people, it stands to reason that the Japanese people are the most unruly, and after repeated incursions by the Japanese invaders, the Japanese have begun to show signs of arrogance, but now, ......
Ashikaga Yoshisai's face was so thick-skinned that he actually cried, and then continued: "After thinking about it, the minister was terrified again and again, so he specially followed the rules and regulations of the past, and personally led the delegation to the state of his parents, rebuilt the old good, and then offered the same things: a thousand taels of gold, fifty horses, a thousand thin posts, a hundred fans, three pairs of screens, ten collars of armor, thirty collars of copper pills, eighty waists of swords, fifty handles of knives, one inkstone lily, and one Tongwentai. He also learned that the Japanese were cruel and had secretly plundered the population of Shangbang, so he searched for the people of Shangbang and returned them to the people of Shangbang. ”
Finally got to the point, honestly paying tribute.
However, this time's tribute is more than several times that of previous years.
Not only did the king of the Wa Kingdom personally confess his guilt, but also sent ten times the tribute, which is not considered sincere?
After saying this, Ashikaga Yoshisai grabbed the ground with his head fiercely, and said with a little crying: "Yoshisai is sincerely afraid, capital crime and capital crime, pause, goodbye." ”
After three heavy knocks, the ritual was finally completed.
At this time, no one spoke, and everyone watched all this dumbfounded, looking at the shameless appearance of the king of the Japanese kingdom, but no one laughed.
Victory!
This was undoubtedly a diplomatically crushing victory.
As the kingdom of the Celestial Empire, the most important thing is face, some people may think that this kind of face is not worth mentioning, but in fact, it is a big mistake, face is not only for yourself, but also for others to see.
People will have the effect of imitation, people are like this, so is the country, the Japanese state is unruly, if the Ming Dynasty can not effectively counteract, there will be a chain reaction, the feudal kingdoms see it, what will they think? If you can't help the Wa Kingdom, who will care about you.
But what about the fate of not caring? It's nothing more than two kinds, one is for me to play my own, you Daming play eggs, this seems to be a good choice.
It's a pity that although the Ming Dynasty doesn't like to deal with people, this tributary system has deep strategic considerations, and people in later generations may laugh at the ancestors for being full of food and support, and they have to maintain the face of a heavenly kingdom, but in fact, the central dynasty has always chosen this kind of beneficial and unreal strategy, and the fundamental reason is that it has maintained this pattern of a super.
What is a super? Just like the Western countries, there are Annam, Champang, Sumatra, Aru, Manraka, Kelantan, Guli, Siam, Chenla, Java, Old Port, and so on.
But for the Ming Dynasty, these are poor and remote places, there is no meaning to occupy, even if you spend a huge amount of people and material resources, send a large army over the mountains and mountains, and occupy the country, but the country's products are not abundant, and the benefits are far lower than the expenditure, so what's the point?
It doesn't make sense.
But the real jealousy of the Ming Dynasty is that the entire West is one, and Annam is strong.
