Chapter 487: The Treaty of Yingtian

Xu Huizu walked out of Jingshi Hospital with his son Xu Qin with a cold face, standing at the door of the hospital, he looked back, the four words of Jingshi Hospital were shining in the sun, dazzling.

Turning his head again, he saw the packet of medicine that Xu Qin was carrying, and he wanted to throw it away, but he didn't dare to speak.

The son has already confessed his mistake to him, and there is no need for him to cause trouble again.

"Let's go, Dad." Xu Qin gently pulled him at this time, and then said, "I have already told Li Jinglong that I will not go to Fuller House in the future and find a serious job." โ€

Xu Huizu had a dark face and didn't speak, and after a while, he nodded, and the two fathers and sons walked forward speechlessly.

didn't take a few dozen steps, and when Dangdang, the officials of Ying Tianfu appeared on the street, beating gongs and drums while running, and shouted excitedly: "The court is victorious." โ€

"A great victory for the imperial court."

"Your Majesty drove the expedition in person, and broke Hu with 40,000 horsemen and 1 million."

"Big win, big win."

"Your Majesty returned victorious, victorious."

At first, they only saw one official knocking, but soon there were more and more officials, and the streets were full of officials knocking.

After a while, the flow of people on the street was in a commotion, and many people ran towards the treasure gate.

"Your Majesty should be back." Xu Qin said in a deep voice, his expression was a little excited, and he seemed to want to go and see it too.

Xu Huizu stood in place and scolded in his heart, the rebel son bragged again, and he broke one million with 40,000 horses, but he really knows how to publicize and let people beat gongs and drums along the street, there is really a set.

Although he was very unhappy with the emperor, he finally breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the victory of the Ming army.

At this time, there were more and more people on the street, and they all ran south, and Xu Huizu subconsciously took Xu Qin to the south.

When approaching Jubaomen, there were more and more people on the street, and Xu Huizu felt a little incredible, because in the past, how could the people of Daming care so much about the war, but now it seems that everyone is interested and goes to Jubaomen.

But what shocked him even more was that the flow of people on the street had become a sea of people, but everyone was running on both sides of the street, and the road was empty, which should be for the emperor to enter the city, and there were only a small number of brocade guards and officials on the side to maintain order.

He stood in a corner and saw the brocade guards and officials waving as they walked: "Go on the side, the middle is empty." โ€

The people spontaneously responded and walked to the sidelines.

So there was a crowd of people on the side, but it was wide in the middle, and it looked orderly.

He thought of Zhu Gaoxu's appearance of entering Beijing for a while, and his heart was not only angry, but he looked left and right at the moment, and pointed to a tea spirit opposite: "Go upstairs." โ€

took his son upstairs, and the provincial was seen by Zhu Gaoxu downstairs.

Because there are many people on the roadside below, many people also want to run upstairs to the teahouse, but the boss is also shrewd, and begins to collect money, and comes in to drink tea, otherwise he will not give in, that is, he will charge two pennies per person.

Xu Hui was half dead in anger, but he still paid the money, asked for two cups of tea, and then squeezed upstairs.

Everyone was huddled out of the window.

Xu Huizu's body was relatively strong, and he squeezed to the front, and then looked up into the distance.

The streets were crowded with people on both sides, and the middle ones were vacated.

After waiting for a full quarter of an hour, he was a little anxious, and suddenly, there was the sound of a tsunami in front of him, and then a huge sound of hooray.

The people here don't know why, but someone downstairs followed and shouted, and someone in the teahouse also shouted.

Many people were shouting long live in Xu Huizu's ears, and Xu Huizu felt even more incredible.

When did the people like Gao Xu's rebel son so much?

Of course, there are also people scolding in the teahouse, presumably readers.

But those who scolded were in the minority after all, and they would soon be drowned out in cheers.

Xu Huizu began to think that the emperor deliberately organized the public opinion, but after the dense flow of people on the street, he knew that the emperor was very popular with the people.

Zhu Gaoxu only lifted the curfew, allowed merchants to pay taxes and did not bow to officials, and paid forced labor, which had already firmly won the support and praise of the majority of the people in Beijing.

Just as Zhu Gaoxu said, there are still a small number of scholars now, and the dissatisfaction of these people will soon be drowned in the vast sea of the people's war.

At this time, as the call from front was getting closer and closer, soon, a large wave of carriages appeared in Xu Huizu's sight.

The carriage was the Ming army's Wuhan Iron and Steel car, and there were still people sitting on the carriage, and when they approached, suddenly someone on the left and right grabbed something from the carriage and threw it into the surrounding crowd.

The "Wow Roar" crowd fryed, dangdang, and fell to the ground full of copper coins.

Passers-by on both sides rushed to pick it up, and Xu Huizu, who was watching, was dumbfounded.

Then the carriage walked forward a few dozen paces, and with a bang, another wave of copper coins was thrown out on the left and right.

The people cheered and shouted and snatched the copper coins.

Some of the people almost got into a fight.

But there were brocade guards and officials on the side, and they immediately drew their swords and reprimanded, telling them not to rob them, and whoever threw them at their feet belonged to them.

Xu Huizu noticed that the people who threw the money were specially thrown to the side of the brocade guards and officials to ensure that the people would not riot because of the money.

The money thrown at the scene is still relatively small, about a hundred steps before throwing two or three times, probably for fear of causing a big riot.

Behind the big carriage, a team of Ming cavalry appeared, the Ming army's armor was bright, morale was high, and the people on the side of the road saw the crazy shouting.

This team of Ming troops is very powerful, it should be carefully selected, all of them are powerful and strong, and they are very imposing, and many of the little ladies watching on the side are staring at it.

After this wave of Ming troops passed, there were carriages again, and this time they were all foreign specialties seized from Shahru, which the Ming did not have, or rarely saw.

The people also watched and discussed, and there were more than a dozen camels in the middle, which also rode the Ming army, and the people who watched were even more point-pointing and very curious.

After a while, another team of foreign women caught by Shaharu were put on the side, and the people were even more enthusiastic about it.

Xu Huizu scolded again in his heart, what is the difference between the current Ming army and bandits, what do women rob when they see money.

He watched for half an hour that day, and the Ming army had not finished entering the city, but he never saw Zhu Gaoxu.

After he arrived home, he heard a news the next day that the Ming army was going to hold an auction to auction off many exotic treasures looted this time, and also built a large view garden on the left side of the imperial city, which put camels and other strange things, and went in to charge two pennies, which could be watched, and it was said that many people in Beijing spent money to see it.

A few days later, Xu Qin came back from outside and told Xu Huizu that it was said that the emperor closed the door and beat the dogs this time, and after the battle, the Ming Dynasty increased at least 10 million silver (mainly the discount of various grain materials), and also got hundreds of thousands of horses and mules, millions of cattle and sheep, which was simply bloody.

Xu Huizu sighed after hearing this: "The materials, grain and grass prepared by Shaharu in the past two years have all been robbed by Gao Xu, of course, it is bloody. โ€

He thought of the appearance of the people in Beijing on the street a few days ago, the words of Li Xuan, the voice of his son Xu Qin when he resisted, and finally the words of the rebel Gao Xu, no matter how shameless he was when he took the throne, at least he was the most suitable to be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

From the first year of Hongxi to the third year, Xu Huizu's experience shows that Zhu Gaoxu, the emperor, is actually quite good, the Ming Dynasty's national strength is thriving, and most importantly, the people are getting better and better.

โ€”โ€”

After Zhu Gaoxu came back, he took a shower first, and then slept for a day.

After getting up, he gathered all the concubines and children to have a family meal together, which was his special habit, and it was estimated that the emperors of previous dynasties rarely did this.

Zhu Gaoxu has to gather all the concubines and children to have a meal at least every month, after all, there are not many concubines and children now, and it is just right to sit at one table.

After resting and meeting his family, he was about to devote himself to dealing with state affairs.

After a few months of expedition, a lot of state affairs have accumulated, and when Huang Fu and Yang Pu were there, many things that could not be decided had to be left to him to come back to deal with, such as the envoys of the Dongben and Goryeo dynasties, who are now in Daming, one is to sue for peace, and the other wants to sell Jeju for a big price.

Before the Ming Dynasty borrowed Jeju to attack Dongben and forced the Dongdong country, he immediately asked Goryeo to return Jeju.

Of course, Li Fangyuan, the king of Goryeo, didn't want to pay it back, but Daming had just defeated Dongben, and Li Fangyuan could only grit his teeth and admit it.

Zhu Gaoxu first summoned the Goryeo envoy Min Wuxian.

As soon as Min Wuxian came in to meet Zhu Gaoxu, Zhu Gaochu took the case: "Bold Min Wuxian, when Hongwu Taizu, Jeju was my Ming land, occupied by you Gaoli, Taizu didn't remember, I want to come back now, do you dare to push back?" โ€

Min Wuxian hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed, crying: "Your Majesty is angry, and there will be hardships in the lower countryโ€”โ€”"

Min Wuxian complained for a while, to the effect that they didn't want to let it, for fear that the people on the island would not be happy.

Zhu Gaoxu immediately said, our Ming people's naval guns and broadswords are not vegetarians, to be honest, I don't mind if there are people other than the Ming people on the island?

Min Wuxian gasped, and his face turned white with fright.

Emperor Daming wanted Jeju with an iron heart, but Min Wuxian could only accept it head-on, and then wanted to fight for some benefits.

Zhu Gaoxu knew what Goryeo lacked, and the two sides quickly reached an agreement.

Goryeo returned Jeju Island, and the Ming Dynasty gave Goryeo 100,000 catties of iron ore at one time, but Goryeo himself sent a ship to Iwami Silver Mountain to fetch it.

Daming sent 10,000 catties of gunpowder and 10,000 catties of sugar to Goryeo every year.

The matter of sending gunpowder was done in the Ming Dynasty at the end of the Ming Dynasty during the Chongzhen period of the Apocalypse, and 5,000 catties of gunpowder were given to Goryeo every year.

Goryeo has always been very short of gunpowder, and now it is also, Zhu Gaoxu is willing to give it, which makes Min Wuxian ecstatic.

But the Ming Sect sent you things, you can't take them for nothing, right? Therefore, Zhu Gaoxu asked Goryeo to pay a tribute of 5,000 large trees (those who can build ships) every year.

Min Wuxian listened, what is this? We have a big wood, just ask some fart people to cut it down, how much you want for this thing, we will give you as much as you want, and we will say yes.

In the end, after friendly negotiation between the two sides, the Ming and Goryeo reached an agreement, and the Ming Dynasty exchanged 10,000 catties of iron, 10,000 catties of gunpowder, and 10,000 catties of sugar for 5,000 large trees and 5,000 ginseng plants in Goryeo every year, and the rest of the tribute remained unchanged.

Then Zhu Gaoxu summoned Dongben's envoy, and Dongben, the defeated country, naturally had no right to speak.

In the end, the two sides reached an agreement.

The Ming Dynasty leased the Dongben Shishan Yinshan and its surrounding 50 miles to the Daming Special Administrative Region, with a lease term of 500 years, and the rent was 5,000 taels of silver per year, or in exchange for the equivalent.

The envoy of Dongben did not want silver, but silk and sugar.

For Ashikaga Yoshimochi, Iwami Ginzan belonged to Iwami Province, a vassal country, and not his, and there was nothing wrong with renting it to the Akito, but the silk and sugar given by the Akito were from the shogunate, so he agreed to this condition quite happily.

The treaties with Goryeo and Dongben went down in history as the 'Treaty of Oncheon' in later history.
