"Zhu Di said in the recital, let you write a history of the Yayoi era of the Wa Kingdom." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Didn't your previous "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" be written very wonderfully, not only widely circulated among the people of the Ming Dynasty, but even spread to the Wa Kingdom. ”

"Today's Da Ming urgently needs your ability to write books."

Zhu Yuanzhang reused Luo Guanzhong and arranged him in the Ministry of Officials, originally to balance. Let him promote officials in the southwest and contain the Huaixi Party. But now, this matter has to be put aside.

In order to conquer the Japanese kingdom, first slow down the containment.

There is a priority in everything.

"The emperor asked Luo Guanzhong to compile the history of the Yayoi period of the Wa Kingdom?"

The ministers were dumbfounded when they heard this.

As we all know, writing history is a very rigorous, even serious, matter.

Just like the compilation of the "Yuan History" by the Hanlin Academy, it is necessary to consult a lot of historical materials to write a historical fact. Some even have histories that visit the parties in person or ask some local elders.

Everyone is doing everything possible to make real historical events present in front of future generations.

And Luo Guanzhong has no experience in compiling history, he just wrote it.

If you really want to edit history, the emperor should let the students of the Hanlin Academy do it, instead of finding a home.

And let the people of the Ming Dynasty help compile the history of the Japanese Kingdom?

What's more, the emperor asked him to write the history of the Yayoi period of the Wakoku Kingdom, which has been more than 1,500 years ago, which is too long. Even some people in the court who don't know much about Fanbang culture have never heard the name Yayoi period.

Moreover, the culture of the Wa Kingdom was relatively backward.

The history of the Yayoi period 1,500 years ago is probably not recorded in any written record for the world's reference.

"Your Majesty, I'm afraid the minister doesn't have the ability to edit the history of the Wa Kingdom." Luo Guanzhong still has a very clear understanding of his own level, "The minister can't do such a serious thing as editing history, if you want to edit history, you should find a bachelor from the Hanlin Academy." The "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" written by the minister before is only popular and cannot be regarded as a history book. ”

"Besides, the emperor still asked his ministers to write the history of the Wa Kingdom, so he is even more incapable."

"I am afraid that there is no historical material to be found in the history of the Yayoi period of the Wakoku country. Ministers can't fabricate a piece of history for them out of thin air. ”

In addition, Luo Guanzhong also had a reason that he couldn't say, that is, he didn't want to go to the Wa Kingdom for field investigations. He had told Liu Bowen and others before that he didn't look down on Fanbang women.

I am worried that after the emperor sends him to the Wa Kingdom, he will give him a marriage to a Wa Guo girl.

However, it turned out that he thought too much, and Zhu Yuanzhang had no intention of letting him go to the Wa Kingdom for field research, "Who asked you to write so rigorously?" We are asking you to use the method of writing "Popular Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to write the ancient history of the Wa Kingdom. Zhu Yuanzhang said.

"Writing history?" The crowd shook again.

"Yes, just write in layman's terms." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Anyway, there is no historical record of the Yayoi era of the Wa Kingdom, whoever is the first to write it, and it is well written, so that the universal public of the Wa Kingdom can accept it, then it is the real history." The culture of the Japanese country is generally backward, write it at your level, and they will be shocked when they see it, and they will not doubt its authenticity. ”

"In that case, the minister can give it a try." Luo Guanzhongdao.

"In that period of the history of the Wa Kingdom, you have to focus on what happened after Xu Fu led 3,000 boys and girls to the Wa Kingdom itself. The scene should be written as magnificent as the Three Kingdoms, and each character should have distinctive characteristics. Zhu Yuanzhang said, "After having characteristics, it is possible for some people with surnames in the Wa Kingdom to pick up, and those characters in history are their ancestors." ”

"That is to say, every important surname given to the Wa Kingdom is based on a boy and a girl as an ancestor."

"Your Majesty, I heard that there are many surnames in the Wa Kingdom." Luo Guanzhong lamented, "If every surname is arranged for them to have an ancestor, I am afraid that there are a lot of characters, which is equivalent to writing a group portrait." ”

"Isn't your "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" also like this, and you still write it very well." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "Let go and write, let's believe in your level." ”

"After the dispersal of the dynasty, you can go back to write the book with peace of mind, you don't have to come to the court again, and strive to finish the first part within a month."

"Your Majesty, the minister may not be able to do it!" Luo Guanzhong said, "One month is too short. ”

"Then we won't be able to take care of it." Zhu Yuanzhang said, "What, do you only want to write a few thousand words a day?" ”

"Minister, obey the order." When Luo Guanzhong heard this, he had to reluctantly agree.

"After the minister went down, he immediately went to the Wenhua Hall to look for relevant historical materials. The minister was completely unfamiliar with the humanities of the Wa Kingdom before, and he didn't even know what their surnames were, so the minister had to check the information. ”

"It is estimated that there is no such historical material in the Wenhua Palace." Shi Nai'an said, "Because the Wa Kingdom belongs to a small country in Fanbang after all, I will never record some less common surnames in the Wa Kingdom." Some of the more important surnames should be recorded accordingly. ”

"Not bad." Luo Guanzhong sighed, "I need to write so many famous characters, and even naming them is a problem." ”

"By the way, isn't that gentleman a pedant? He must have known the names of the people of the Wa Kingdom very well. Luo Guanzhong said, "The minister asks Your Majesty, the minister wants to personally ask that person for advice or two, and ask him to provide the minister with some names of the Wa Kingdom." ”

"Okay, let's take you to see him next time." Zhu Yuanzhang said.

As soon as the words came out, he regretted it: who is Mr. Qin, and how can he easily let others see him? I heard him say just now that he just asked for the name of the Japanese people, and he agreed without thinking about it, but now he wants to regret it and can't say it.

"I actually had a chance to meet that Mr. Qin!

？？ Luo Guanzhong was excited when he heard this, "The policies he offered to the emperor to govern the country were shocking, beyond us ordinary people by several levels." ”

"What does he look like, what kind of Dao Bone Immortal Wind is he?"

In the entire court, there are 'outsiders' who can see Mr. Qin, and he is currently the first.

Even Liu Bowen, Gao Qi, Song Lian and other great Confucians, as well as Li Shanchang, Hu Weiyong and other important people did not have a chance to meet him.

In the past, the emperor closed Lujia Village very well, and almost no one in the court saw Mr. Qin. Everyone only hears of his name but does not see his person, and only those in the royal family and those authorized by the emperor can enter.

It's a great honor to be willing to take him there now!

After the ministers dispersed, Zhu Yuanzhang called Wu Feng, the deputy commander of the Jinyi Guard, to the front and asked him to lead a team of Jinyi Guards to Goryeo to protect the safety of King Yan and deal with the assassination of the Japanese ninjas.

And after Luo Guanzhong went down to the court, he also began to get busy, going to the Wenhua Hall to read ancient books.
