It was not only an alliance under the city, but also a traitor to seize power, and the negotiations were extremely smooth.

The following terms were agreed -

First, Japan is a subject country of the Ming Dynasty, and the king of Japan must be canonized by the Ming Emperor.

Second, the king of Japan must not trespass or steal the title of emperor.

Third, Japan opened five ports for trade between Ming merchants.

Fourth, Japan gave up Tsushima Island and Sado Island, and these two islands will be Ming territory in the future.

Fifth, Japan leased Iwami National Castle and the surrounding 20 miles of Mt. Omori to the Ming Dynasty for 300 years, with an annual rent of 1,000 taels of silver.

Sixth, he officially canonized Emperor Totoku as the king of Japan.

Seventh, Zongren (Emperor Toba) has no heaven to go to the kingdom and must personally go to Kaifeng to ask the Ming Emperor for his guilt.

Eighth, compensate the Ming Dynasty for 300,000 stone military rations.

The seventh was added by Fujiwara faithfully, and he didn't dare to add it blatantly, but he dared to hint at Zhang Jun quietly.

Zhang Jun took out the edict of canonization and read it, and Emperor Chongde knelt down to receive the decree in a daze.

This little kid hasn't turned into a big tengu yet, and he's not the powerful youkai, but he's eleven years old, and he can feel that everyone around him is cheating on him.

After bowing to the courtesy, the little boy received the "Golden Seal of the King of Japan" and the canonization edict, and was "escorted" back to the depths of the palace by the palace people.

In the past few days of negotiations, Zhang Jun already understood the situation in Japan, and he said to Zhu Xiaozhong: "Fujiwara is loyal to want to be a powerful minister, and hints that I will take the Japanese king away, and he is a good regent to manipulate the little king as a puppet." Therefore, as long as he comes forward to negotiate, he will agree to any conditions. ”

"I see!" Zhu Xiaozhong was quite impressed and felt that he had learned new knowledge.

Zhang Jun sneered: "I have already asked, although the Fujiwara North family is full of henchmen, they can only control Heiankyo and Nara. Moreover, even if these two places were controlled, the monks and other ministers would have to be united. The place is in the hands of Haoqiang, and the two clans of Ping and Genji have mastered the Haoqiang of many counties. In the future, there will still be chaos in Japan, and it will depend on who can't help but do it first. ”

Zhu Xiaozhong said with emotion: "Mr. Zhang has been in Japan for less than half a month, and he has been able to smooth out this mess. ”

Zhang Jun said: "Read more history books to know. Japan's national system is complex, and it is both a county system and a county system. If it is a county system, the imperial court has the right to appoint and dismiss the Taishou, but those who are too Shou do not go to work. The place has been controlled by the powerful for a long time, and the military and political affairs are all tied to the wealthy clan, and these powerful will become princes sooner or later. Even if they are not princes, they seem to be envoys of the late Tang Dynasty. ”

Zhu Xiaozhong said: "Probably not. I have seen local wealthy families in Japan, and in a place as big as a county, there may be several wealthy families. The army in their hands is nothing more than a few, dozens of samurai, and at most a few hundred more village soldiers will be recruited. Fighting a war is more like a play, fighting viciously for two fields. These people are also worthy of being called princes? ”

Zhang Jun said: "If no one intervenes, the local heroes will naturally not be able to become princes. But the dead King of Shirakawa promoted the northern samurai, and controlled the local magnates through the northern samurai. The one who can mobilize the most powerful is Taira Tadashi, Fujiwara Faithful is now going to be a powerful minister, and the Taira Tadashi Dynasty, who has lost his backer, is not in danger, but he still has sufficient force in his hands. If you were peaceful, what would you do? ”

Zhu Xiaozhong thought for a while and said: "Destroy the ministers, send the envoy to the Ming Dynasty, and welcome back the Toba Wa King!" ”

Zhang Jun said with a smile: "If you don't fight in Iwami Country, Ping Zhongsheng will definitely be able to do it." However, he suffered heavy losses in Iwami Province, and his prestige in the army plummeted, and his strength was greatly reduced from then on. Fujiwara is loyal and united with the monks, and if they fight, it is really uncertain who will win and who will lose. ”

"Alas!"

Zhang Jun sighed: "If you can quickly distinguish the winner or loser, you naturally have nothing to say." If the fight is inseparable, it will inevitably involve the localities. Under each other's merits, the local heroes can annex and become bigger, and don't they become princes one by one? ”

Zhu Xiaozhong said with a serious face: "If that's the case, the Japanese soldiers will become more capable of fighting, and it is impossible to collapse at the touch of a button like now." We must be more vigilant in this matter, and we must not let the Japanese family dominate, but let all parts of the Japanese country be in chaos. ”

While the two were talking, Zhu Xiaozhong's personal soldiers knocked on the door: "Big brother, the Japanese people sent two noble girls, I heard that they are both from the Fujiwara clan." ”

"No, no, send them all back!"

Zhu Xiaozhong waved his hand again and again, he watched the song and dance performance two days ago, and was startled by the terrifying costume.

The two nobles of the Fujiwara clan were sent back, but Fujiwara Faithful was so frightened that they personally ran to ask where they were not served well overnight.

Zhu Xiaozhong was annoyed by the question, so he simply said: "You noble girls of the Japanese kingdom look too scary, one by one they look like female ghosts, and they can be scared to death when they bump into them in the middle of the night." ”

Looking at the disgusted appearance of the general of the Ming Kingdom, Fujiwara was a little inferior: "The woman of the lower kingdom is not comparable to the Celestial Empire in appearance." ”

Zhu Xiaozhong waved his hand and said, "It has nothing to do with appearance, I'm talking about makeup." is a civilian woman in the Japanese country, and she is much more beautiful than a noble girl. The teeth are stained black, and the eyebrows are shaved off a little bit and the little is ugly. ”

Fujiwara Faithful said: "This is an imitation of Tang makeup, how can it be ugly?" ”

Zhang Junlai said: "I have not heard that women in the Tang Dynasty took black teeth as beauty." Also, now it is the Ming Dynasty, and it is no longer the Tang Dynasty. The country should be respected by the Ming Dynasty everywhere. ”

"Yes!"

Fujiwara replied faithfully and respectfully.

Out of Mu Qiang's mentality, the envoys and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty only stayed in Heianjing for a few days, and some nobles began to imitate them.

The first is the hat.

It's hard to change clothes, but it's easy to change a hat.

Zhu Ming didn't like the long-winged black gauze hat of the Song Dynasty, thinking that it was not good for that thing to do, so he asked the officials to wear the winged black gauze hat.

The cross-winged black gauze hat is to pin the two hat wings at the back of the head and cross them.

During the Northern Song Dynasty, many officials often wore winged black gauze hats in private for the convenience of daily movements. In order to show their status, the officials also want to wear the kind of hat with wings, and they also wear winged black gauze hats because of the encroachment.

Prince Zhu gave an order, and the officials followed.

But officials and officials have to be distinguished, otherwise how can the identity of officials be revealed?

So the officials took the initiative to untie the wings and make them short and droop at the back of their heads.

Zhang Jun wore this kind of hat when he went to Japan, and the nobles of Heiankyo followed suit, and within a few days, imitations appeared one after another.

Fujiwara Tadashi left with a low breath and returned home to start thinking.

He, a powerful minister, has done a little too much, and if he loses his power and humiliates the country and betrays the emperor, there must be many people who are dissatisfied. Moreover, although Yuan Weiyi can be co-opted, Ping Zhongsheng will definitely make trouble.

You have to find a way to increase your prestige!

After suppressing Taira Tadamori, Fujiwara faithfully prepared to send an "envoy to the Ming Dynasty" to play the banner of revitalizing Sheji, which was actually to strengthen the connection with the Ming court.

The Ming army was in Iwami Province, Tsushima Island, and Sado Island, and as long as Fujiwara faithfully pretended to have the support of the Ming Dynasty and was afraid of the Japanese ministers, monks, samurai, and wealthy clans of the Ming army, he would not dare to openly rebel against Fujiwara's loyal rule.

At the same time, the process of selecting "sending envoys" is also a process of wooing ministers, monks, and samurai.

You must obey Fujiwara Faithfulness in order to have a chance to be sent to Daming!

Those gentlemen of the Fujiwara North family will also have serious errands to do in the future. That is, to learn and publicize the various fashions of the Ming Dynasty, so that the "Ming Style" became a trend, and Heiankyo must relish about it, and regard the Fujiwara Kita family descendants as the disseminators of the Ming culture.

Don't look at it just to set off a cultural fashion trend, this is actually a kind of right to speak.

The more Fujiwara Faithful thought about it, the more proud he became, this Ming invasion was like a blessing from the gods to him.

……

Nara.

Kofukuji Temple, which is the base camp of Master Nara.

Although Emperor Toba fled Heiankyo, he lost his eyeliner there. Fujiwara Tadamichi was bedridden and Weishun Oe was detained by the Ming envoy, and the news of these two things spread quickly.

Emperor Toba panicked and feared, and hurriedly sought out Taira Tadamori and Fujiwara Ienari to discuss.

Emperor Toba took the lead in making a promise: "As long as you help me regain power, the fish celebrity can become the descendant of the Fujiwara North family!" ”

Hearing this, Fujiwara Ienari was a little excited, but thinking about the terrible Ming army, he became hesitant again.

Ping Zhongsheng said: "Your Majesty, call Yuan Weiyi too." ”

"Can he be trusted?" Emperor Toba worried.

Ping Zhongsheng said: "It was not credible before, but now it is credible. ”

Soon, Yuan Weiyi was recruited.

Ping Zhongsheng explained the matter in detail and said: "You are from the imperial family, if Fujiwara loyally takes away the power, will he reuse you again?" Will reusing you for a year, two years, five years will reuse you for ten or twenty years? He will do everything he can to weaken you and take away your pillar warriors! ”

Although Yuan Weiyi is arrogant and domineering, he is not without brains, and he knows that what Ping Zhongsheng said is very likely to become a reality.

"But we can't defeat the Ming army, what should we do?" The source is righteous questioning.

Ping Zhongsheng said: "We will escort Your Majesty to the east hunt, and after the Ming army leaves, we will bring the samurai back to kill." ”

Fujiwara Ienari asked, "What should I do if the Ming army is chasing after me?" ”

Ping Zhongsheng said: "So I have to secretly contact the Ming army and promise Fujiwara the conditions that Fujiwara will faithfully agree, and His Majesty will also agree, and even compensate the Ming country." As long as the Ming army did not help each other, it was very easy to defeat Fujiwara Faithful with the combined strength of the Taira and Gen families. ”

Fujiwara Ienari clapped his hands and praised: "Good strategy! ”

Emperor Toba doesn't care about anything now, and he promises to be an official: "As long as you regain power, in the future, it will be you Pingji, Genji, Fujiwara Kita, and celebrities, and the three families will unite to regent Guan Bai!" ”

"Swear allegiance to Your Majesty!"

The three of them knelt down together, and then ran to gather their men.

That night, Emperor Toba summoned the head of Master Nara and promised to give them some of the manors of Master Yama and Master Temple in the future, as long as the group of Master Nara helped him seize power. And if Master Nara doesn't help, Fujiwara Faithful will definitely unite to attack Master Nara in order to win over Master Yama and Master Temple!

Dozens of Nara temples, led by Kofukuji Temple, pledged their allegiance to Emperor Toba, and each sent monks to escort him on his escape.

When Fujiwara faithfully sent someone over and used the success of the negotiation as a bait to trick Emperor Toba into returning to Heiankyo, he found that this old man had already gone away.

And the Ming army stationed outside the capital of Heian also picked up dozens of secret letters with the same content, and even caught a samurai who shot books at the barracks.

Zhang Jun read the letter carefully, and said with a smile: "This Japanese monarch and minister is a bit interesting, and it is about to become a situation between the east and the west." ”

Zhu Xiaozhong said: "We don't have to worry about this kind of thing. ”

Zhang Jun said: "It's best to leave it alone, let them fight by themselves, anyway, the winner will surrender to Daming." ”

Zhu Xiaozhong said: "Then we will withdraw as soon as possible and make room for them to fight." ”

(I owe a watch, and I will make it up tomorrow.) Talking doesn't count is a puppy, Wangwang! ）
