In the port of Tianjin, a clipper suddenly appeared on the sea level.

The waterway patrol immediately issued a warning and dispatched sand boats to leave the port urgently.

Soon, the sand boat approached the opposite ship, forced it to stop, and then shot it out with a huge crossbow bolt tied to the cable, and fixed its boat gang, and waited for the two ships to be synchronized, set up the sampan, and prepare to board.

The leader was a hundred households, and when he glanced at the other party's sails, it turned out to be a Japanese boat, and he suddenly became nervous.

Coincidentally, this person's name is Deng Kang, who originally belonged to the 3,000 Battalion, some time ago and the Japanese War, because he rushed too fast, he was accidentally hit by a stray bullet from his teammates, and was wounded in the thigh, so he had to retreat from the 3,000 Battalion and came to Tianjin Waterway to inspect Ren Baihu.

Of course, it is not comparable to the 3,000 battalions here, and it will be fine to go around the port twice a day, which is really boring.

Unexpectedly, there was a sudden situation today, and Deng Kang suddenly became excited.

Subconsciously, he touched the rifle on his body, and then realized that he was no longer in the 3,000 battalion.

Rifles are weapons that are only equipped with the most advanced troops, and a mere waterway inspection is naturally not qualified.

So, Deng Kang pressed the handle of the knife with his hand and took the lead in boarding the opponent's ship. _o_m

Any ship arriving at the Daming port requires relevant defense documents, and under normal circumstances, it is the tributary fleets of various countries that are allowed to enter the port.

And now, it is obviously not the time for the Wa Kingdom to pay tribute, and the recent war between the Ming and the Wakou has made Deng Kang extremely vigilant.

"Is there anyone who is in charge!"

A Japanese man had come out of the cabin quickly and shouted in broken Chinese, "Hai, Hai, I am the ...... of His Excellency Ashikaga, the shogun."

Deng Kang looked at his roe deer-headed mouse eyes, not like a good person, and before he finished speaking, he said impatiently: "If you are not a tributary envoy, can you be a widow?" Come, take him down! ”

The officers and soldiers behind him did not hesitate at all and rushed forward.

The Japanese hurriedly shouted loudly: "I am not a Japanese Emperor, I want to see our ambassador, His Excellency Higashi Tsune, I have a letter from Ashikaga Shogun, I want to ......"

Deng Kang has never had a good impression of the Japanese people, so he directly kicked his knee, and the Japanese man staggered, poofed, and knelt on the ground.

Immediately, officers and soldiers began to search, and this person, in addition to a few ingots of gold and silver, did find a letter.

Deng Kang took the letter and read it, hmm...... I don't understand.

He glanced at it, but saw that the man had a sword tied to his waist, so he commanded, "Get rid of his sword!" ”

Immediately afterwards, someone took off the knife on his body, Deng Kang took it, played with it in his hand, and already had a plan in his heart.

The more prominent the family, the more valuable the knife is.

This knife is extraordinary at first glance, not that it is decorated, but that this knife is obviously forged from 100 steel, and the word "Toyama" is engraved on it, so it should not be a Japanese coward.

Deng Kang glared at this person coldly and asked, "Who are you?" ”

"In Shimotoyama Yu, a retainer of the shogun Ashikaga Yoshimasa, was ordered to come to see our envoy Higashi Tsuneki, there is something important, and the envoy needs to play to His Majesty the Ming Emperor, because the matter is urgent, and it involves secrets, I need to meet the envoy immediately, and please let me go!"

Deng Kang did not doubt the purpose of this person, because this was a lonely ship, and there were letters and seals, and besides, after searching the ship, except for this person's saber, he did not carry any weapons.

It's just that it doesn't seem appropriate to just let him go.

After hesitating for a moment, Deng Kang made up his mind in his heart.

"Come, escort him ashore first, and I will report to the command, you prepare the prisoner car, ready to be sent to Beijing at any time."

Toyama was indeed a retainer of the Ashikaga family, and since the establishment of the Muromachi shogunate, the Ashikaga family had overthrown the Wa Emperor, and as the control of the Wa Emperor weakened, the Ashikaga family became more and more powerful, and almost unified the four islands of the Wa Kingdom. Toyama Yu's ancestor, Heizaburo Toyama, was a retainer of the Ashikaga clan and had made great contributions to the Ashikaga clan.

This time, he came from afar because he was in a hurry, but as soon as he heard about the prisoner car......

"My lord, I'm an envoy, how can I take the prisoner's car?"

Deng Kang looked at him dissatisfiedly and said, "Your identity is unknown, so naturally you have to use the prisoner car, and if you don't want to take it, you can go back from where you come from." (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 193: Your Home Is Gone

Where to go! ”

Tomiyama was so anxious at this time that he had to agree.

But for him, as long as he can see Dongchangyuan now, the prisoner car will be the prisoner car.

Therefore, he did not struggle, and let the officers and soldiers tie him up.

Deng Kang snorted lightly, as if he was puzzled, and then surrendered the boat and went ashore.

…………

Among the Beijing teachers, Gao Hub's corruption is still fermenting.

Zhu Ji took the brocade guards to arrest people everywhere, including Chen Ruyan, the left attendant of the military department.

The silver found from his house was not as appalling as Gao Han's house, but it was as much as 600,000 taels.

Since Chen Ruyan was "invited" to Zhao Prison, he has been extremely cooperative, asking what to say, and taking the initiative to explain if he doesn't ask.

After Zhu Qiyu got the confession, he couldn't help frowning.

"And the widows gave him silver? This East Evernatorium...... How does it sound familiar? ”

Zhu Ji replied: "Your Highness, Dong Changyuan is an envoy of the Japanese State and is stationed in Beijing. ”

"The envoy of the Japanese State, what do you want to send silver to the left servant of the military department?"

"According to Chen Ruyan's confession, Dong Changyuan heard that the imperial court was going to issue an edict to apply for the Japanese state because of the Japanese affairs, so he made a point up and down to avoid the Japanese state being implicated."

"Humph!"

Zhu Qiyu sneered: "The lives of the coastal people of my Ming Dynasty are worth these boxes of gold and silver?" Chen Ruyan's side, have there been any other problems? ”

"The main thing is corruption, bribery, nothing too out of line, and no one is killed."

"That's not good, 600,000 taels, according to the ancestral system, killing him 10,000 times is enough, put this person on the death row list and present it to the emperor immediately!"

"Your Highness, what should I do with that Japanese envoy Dongchangyuan?"

"Take him back to Zhao Prison as well, interrogate him carefully, see if there are any problems, and let him remember it for a long time!"

"Yes!"

Zhu Ji suddenly found that His Royal Highness King Yu seemed to have changed a lot during this period of time. Initial Update@

In the past, King Yu treated Wenchen with great respect.

As long as he is a scholar, even if he makes any mistakes, he will try his best to intercede in order to reduce his guilt.

Therefore, King Yu has an excellent reputation among Wenchen, and even for a while, he was called King Xian, and the meaning behind it is self-evident.

In Zhu Ji's view, the reason why King Yu was praised by civil officials was mainly because of his relatively ...... character Weak.

This weakness does not mean that he is timid, but that he is easy to compromise.

Compared with the emperor's unruly character, the ministers certainly preferred the king.

Think about it, if the king of a country can easily compromise, then wouldn't being a courtier win more power?

Even when the emperor led his troops to raid Mobei, when there was no news, some people were already ready to move and support King Yu behind his back.

However, with the emperor putting King Yu in the position of prisoner, it seems that everything has changed.

King Yu has been imperceptibly influenced by the emperor, and his style of acting has become more and more tough.

He no longer blindly protects Wenchen, and when it is time to deal with it, he is not merciful.

For some reason, the two brothers are becoming more and more alike, and even the tone of their speech is the same.

Zhu Ji turned to this and the stone in his heart fell to the ground.

On weekdays, the emperor is reluctant to go to court, and he runs away at every turn, and when he fights, he takes the lead and rushes forward.

In this way, the prisoner of the country at home must be tough enough.

When encountering something, you must make a decision immediately and not hesitate.

Even if you do something wrong, the emperor will give you a cover, but if you don't dare to do it, it's another matter.

However, there are pitfalls.

If this prison country is too tough, wait until the wings are full, and want to kick the emperor away and do it alone......

Zhu Ji didn't dare to think that this kind of thing was not something he should consider at his level.

He believes that the emperor must have seriously considered it, and he still shouldn't worry about it.

…………

Honglu Temple, a strange person was brought over.

The Shaoqing of Honglu Temple, who was in charge of receiving the foreign envoys, personally verified his identity and confirmed the other party. (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 193: Your Home Is Gone

After being a retainer of Ashikaga Yoshimasa, the shogun of the Wa Kingdom, he did not feel embarrassed and arranged for this person to meet with Higashi Tsuneki.

At this time, Higashi Tsuneki had just been released from Zhao Prison.

Although he was not convicted of any major crime of rebellion, the charge of bribing officials must have not escaped.

Zhu Ji still had a lot of eucalyptus in his hand, so he didn't have time to waste time on him, so he slapped the board, warned him, and let it go.

Higashitsune's buttocks were opened, and he was recuperating on his stomach at home, but when he heard that a guest was coming, he raised his head with difficulty......

"You...... What are you doing here? ”

I saw that Toyama looked anxious, and when he saw Higashi Changyuan, he immediately burst into tears.

"Your Excellency Totsune!"

Dong Changyuan struggled to get up, although it was a great joy to meet his old acquaintance in a foreign country, but he immediately noticed that something was unusual.

Toyama Yu hurriedly said: "Your Excellency Dongchang, I am hereby ordered by the Governor to report on the urgent matter of 100,000 people...... Why do you sit down? ”

Dong Changyuan waved his hand and said, "Leave me alone, you go on, what's the matter?" ”

"Wa ...... Attacked! ”

"What?"

Dong Changyuan was stunned, and then asked, "Who is the enemy?" ”

"Yes......"

Toyama Xiong cautiously glanced around, lowered his voice and said, "Ming Army! ”

Dong Changyuan's eyes were uncertain, and he couldn't believe it at all, here in the Ming Dynasty, there was no news that the Ming army had gone to sea to attack the Wa Kingdom.

He shook his head and said, "No, maybe it's some thieves, or a wolf." ”

Since the main force of the Japanese was defeated by the Ming army, the remnants did not dare to attack the Ming Dynasty, and in order to make a living, it was entirely possible to invade and occupy the coastal areas of the Japanese state.

"No, it's not a thief!"

Yu Toyama was so anxious that he cried: "They attacked more than a dozen ports, and they also attacked Hirado Town!" ”

"What?"

Higashi Tsuneki was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly asked, "How is Hirado now?" ”

Hirado Town was built on the sea, across the sea from the Korean Kingdom, and was an important town for foreign trade in the Wa Kingdom, and the Ashikaga clan started in Hirado and became shoguns in one fell swoop.

There, countless merchant ships of the Korean and Japanese kingdoms, as well as the smuggling ships of the Ming kingdom, also appeared every once in a while.

What's more, Higashi-Tsune's home is in Hirado-cho!

Tomiyama said truthfully: "Wherever the Ming army passed, no one could stop it. They had firearms, and they were extremely strong in combat, and each time they attacked suddenly in the middle of the night, and after breaking the city, they plundered, and then set fire to it, burned everything, and then boarded the ship, and were never seen again. Our fleet has encountered them, but their ships have artillery on board, and our fleet has been wiped out! Hirado Town has been ransacked, and you're still ...... Your wife and children...... They are unfortunate...... Tragedy! ”

Dong Changyuan's face turned pale, and he howled: "Who are they, who are they......

"They are by no means ordinary bandits, that is, the Ming army is undoubted, now the whole country, is already panicked, looted gold and silver, countless, so that the people killed, is innumerable, they are extremely ferocious, even once, attack near Kyoto, the terrible thing is that their combat effectiveness is amazing, now Hirado has been burned, Ashikaga Shogun wants to gather troops, looking for these thieves to fight a decisive battle, but can only look at the ocean and sigh, especially Hirado, where ...... There......"

Speaking of this, Yu Toyama choked up, tears wetting his clothes.

It is the window of the entire Japanese maritime trade, countless giants have bought property there, hidden countless gold, silver and jewelry, and the wealth of the Ashikaga clan, which has also been looted, and what is even more terrifying is that these bastards, they rob and rob, and they like to set fire to them after robbing.

Higashi Tsuneen only felt that his mind was blank, his hometown was gone, the Ashikaga clan was hit hard, and all his wealth was gone.

His wife and children...... His wife and children......

He couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood: "Bastard, shameless, eight-grid tooth road!" ”

After Yu Toyama finished crying, he continued: "Ashikaga General hopes that you, as a state envoy, will immediately negotiate with the Ming court, the Ming Dynasty and our country have always been harmonious, why suddenly sword rattling, draw swords against each other, what is the intention?" ”

Higashi Changyuan faced. Initial Update @ (This chapter is not finished!) )

Chapter 193: Your Home Is Gone

Angry, asked: "Now, where are these fleets?" ”

"I don't know!"

Tomiyama shook his head and said with a wry smile, "No one knows where they are, nor where their next target is." Nowadays, any place can be a target. ”

Dong Changyuan's face was pale, and he sat on the ground with a butt, and then, with a snort, jumped up like a bullet. @精华\/Shuge*First update~~

He now ignored the sharp pain in his buttocks, and the expression on his face was both horrified and angry.

According to Tomiyama Yu's description, the speed of the Ming warships was extremely fast, they could carry people and food and weapons, and within a few days, they would appear anywhere, thousands of miles of coastline, even if all the Japanese were recruited to defend, they couldn't prevent it!

"I ...... I'm going to sue now, and I must negotiate solemnly! ”

Dong Changyuan endured the wound on his buttocks, ordered someone to hire a sedan chair, lay in the sedan chair, and went straight to the palace.

He was almost crazy, and the thought of his wife and children showed a painful expression on his face.

However, he still forcibly suppressed this emotion.

State affairs are important, and today we must have an explanation!
