Chapter 168: The Emperor Belongs to You, the General Belongs to Me, Japan Is Ours! (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)
On May 15 of the seventh year of the Ming Dynasty, it was auspicious and everything was suitable.
The sound of crackling firecrackers rang out outside the Daikoku mansion in Ginza, Edo, Japan. Dahei's house is close to the left, and the crowd is surging. Everyone crowded on the sidewalk across the street from the big black mansion, stretching their necks to watch the big black family marry their daughter. This is a terrible marriage, because the person who wants to marry Akong, the daughter of the Dahei family, is actually the military advisor of the Ming Zhuge family!
This is the place where Edo profiteers live, and for these profiteers, the Zhuge family and the Zheng family are simply heavenly immortals, who can manipulate everything in Japan with an invisible and invisible hand!
The daughter of the Dahei family can marry the military advisor of the Zhuge family, even if it is a side room, it is a great deal...... This means that the Ginza and Daikoku House of the Daikoku family now have a backstage like a steel plate, and it is impossible to open and go out of business.
And what makes these Ginza merchants even more encouraging is that Daikoku will marry from Edo Castle as the daughter of the Tokugawa family this time! This is not an ordinary adopted daughter, but an adopted daughter who is crowned with the character Tokugawa Miao, and can already be regarded as the biological daughter of Tokugawa Ieqi.
So this marriage is not only the marriage of the Dahei family and the Zhuge family, but also the marriage of the Tokugawa family and the Zhuge family!
This also means that the Ming "Destruction Fleet" anchored in the sea of Edo Bay is not here to destroy the Tokugawa family, but to help the Tokugawa family to attack the righteous soldiers of the Western Kingdom entrenched in Nagasaki, no, it is the rebels of the Western Kingdom!
Yes, these people are traitors!
Well-informed merchants in Edo had already heard that the Shogun would go to Kyoto immediately after his daughter Akora married to meet Emperor Shizuko and ask the Emperor to issue an edict accusing Nagasaki of being a thief to the enemy!
In addition, the British Empire, which had always wanted to win over Japan against the Ming Dynasty, had now abandoned the pro-British faction in Japan and no longer provided them with any help.
As a result, Nagasaki is now isolated...... If he is again accused of being an enemy of the DPRK and a thief of the country, then perdition will become inevitable!
And after the demise of the anti-Ming faction in Nagasaki, Japan will completely fall to the Ming Dynasty...... It is said that the Ming side has negotiated a "Twenty-one Tomorrow Promotion" with the shogunate. With the support of the Ming Dynasty, Japan's economy will surely develop rapidly in the future.
It seems that it will not take many years for Japan to become a developed country like Korea, Annam, and Chenla, and it is fun to think about it!
Therefore, when the news of Zhuge Weidao and Daikoku's wedding came out, Edo's stock market and bond market flew up all of a sudden. Many of the two houses that were originally dying were suddenly "half resurrected", and the entire Edo market actually flourished at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Although Zhuge Weidao likes Da Heikong's well-behaved and childlike ...... What, it also gave her a side room status that could be above the rest of her concubines, but she was still a concubine after all. The gift of taking a concubine is very different from the gift of marrying a wife, not only is it done hastily, but Zhuge Weidao does not have to go to Edo City to greet relatives, as long as he waits in the big black mansion, and waits for the big black sky to come in and give himself a door salute.
Although the Daikoku family is located in Ginza, Edo, the shape of the house and the layout inside it are typical Jiangnan houses, with brick and wood structures and white walls and black tiles. Now, because of the happy event, red is draped everywhere, and red lanterns are hung. Zhuge Weidao also put on the clothes of the bridegroom official in the style of the Ming Dynasty, crossed Erlang's legs, and talked with Zheng Guoxian, the younger brother of the Empress Dowager Zheng, while drinking tea in a study.
"Kamiyama, the report of the Naval Intelligence Bureau said that the current Japanese Emperor Shizuko is also a beautiful woman who still has charm, a well-ripened beauty, and is especially good at playing...... Can you take it? Okay, huh? Do you want a foolish brother to come out? ”
Looking at Zhuge Weidao's treacherous face with a bit of a Y smile, Zheng Guoxian was also a little speechless, is this the surname Zhuge or the surname Ximen?
Thinking of this, he snorted and taught him a serious lesson: "Daozi, you are also a Taoist who has read poetry and books, how can you say such filthy words? I've known the emperor's sister since we were kids, and we're two little guesses......"
vertex
Speaking of this, he suddenly found that Zhuge Weidao was smiling more treacherously, and he couldn't stop nodding, as if he recognized himself......
"This, this I have affection for her, and she will know that cooperating with our Zheng family is the most in the interests of the Heavenly Emperor!" Zheng Guoxian said with a calm face, "Daozi, although my sister and I are your beloved relatives and friends, our two families are still opposite on the surface...... This has been the rule for more than 100 years!
Here in Japan, the same must be done. The Heavenly Emperor is under the responsibility of our Zheng family, and the Tokugawa family belongs to your Zhuge family!
You can't eat two for one person, otherwise the Heavenly Emperor and the General's family will really be combined, and they will really be combined, then they will be disobedient. When the time comes, we will have no other way but economic blockade! ”
After all, the Ming Dynasty's control over Japan cannot be compared with that of the American imperialists...... Da Ming has no atomic bomb to throw away! Therefore, it is impossible to station a large army in Japan, and it is impossible to get a Tokyo District Prosecutor's Office to handle a group of Japanese politicians.
Moreover, the purpose of the Ming Dynasty's control of Japan was to use Japanese samurai as cannon fodder to fight a world war, so as to avoid excessive losses on their own side, which made the anti-war public opinion high. In this case, the Ming could not wipe out the Japanese samurai class...... The samurai are all wiped out, and the "Showa boys" will become a "Heisei abandoned house", and they can still count on those guys who clock in to work to fight the world war?
Therefore, the Ming Dynasty had to support two opposing samurai groups within Japan, and the Tokugawa shogunate was only one of them, and the other one who could confront the Tokugawa could only be the Emperor.
"I know, I know......" Zhuge Weidao said with a smile, "The emperor's sister is yours, and I won't rob you of it." But you also have to be careful, Emperor Shizuko is afraid that it is not a fuel-efficient lamp...... I heard that she admired Catherine II the most. This emperor was not supposed to be a woman in her turn, but the few candidates above her either saw through the red dust or died unexpectedly! ”
Zheng Guoxian smiled: "It's all done by the samurai from the north...... If she doesn't have this strength, where is it worth me to go out? ”
The so-called northern samurai are actually a group of samurai created by Emperor Shirakawa to directly obey his orders long ago, when the Emperor still had some real power, and it did not belong to the Edo period. However, the combination of public and martial arts, which began more than a hundred years ago, gave the Heavenly Emperor more opportunities to contact the martial arts. And the Zheng family of the Ming Dynasty funded the Emperor through the Japanese branch, which gave the Emperor the financial resources to recruit samurai for his own use.
In addition, after the merger of the public and military forces, the marriage partner of the Emperor also changed from the original declining family to the powerful Tokugawa clan and the shogunate clan. Perhaps due to the continuous influence of the samurai system from the matriarchal line, in the past few decades, the Japanese emperor has produced several tougher emperors in a row! And today's Jingzi Emperor is also relatively strong, and her mother is from the Aizu Matsudaira family......
When Zhuge Weidao and Zheng Guoxian were chatting about the Heavenly Emperor, the sound of firecrackers and the sound of blowing and beating outside suddenly became dense.
Zheng Guoxian glanced at Zhuge Weidao, who was dressed as a groom official, stood up, hugged his fists and said, "I won't delay you as a groom...... But there are some things that I have to tell you, Ah Kong is not Japanese, her family has lived in Shanghai for several generations, and she has also married several wealthy merchant families in Jiangnan.
It can be said that except for the nationality that has not changed, everything else has changed, so it is relatively reliable. ”
His face changed suddenly, and he said solemnly: "But her marrying you as the daughter of the Tokugawa family is actually a plan of the Tokugawa family...... The upper echelons of their Japanese state are very good at using marriage to turn enemies into friends.
Our Japanese division has married dozens of Japanese feudal lords...... Michiko, think about it, if in the future, the Ming Dynasty and the upper echelons of Japan will become relatives, you have me, I have you, is there still any meaning in the rope around the neck of Japan? ”
When he said this, he seemed to be digging out his heart, and he really regarded Zhuge Weidao as his own person.
Zhuge nodded with a smile and said, "Thank you, thank you, I know." ”
Then he also hugged his fists and said, "Kamiyama, I also wish your trip to Kyoto a success!"
Now that we have the general's order and the emperor's edict, we will be all righteous, and then we can go to Nagasaki and put a fire in the sky! ”
