Chapter Two Hundred and Sixty Three Great Artifacts
Chu Yu ordered people to give Jiang Hengshan a lot of money. In this society, it is impossible to have no money on it. No matter which dynasty it is, as long as you have money, you will be the master. So in Japan, Jiang Hengshan has a lot of money.
If you have money, you will be brave. Jiang Hengshan used his own money tactics to open up Chu Yu's path to Emperor Guangming in less than a month.
Emperor Guangming's close ministers and maids have been bribed by Jiang Hengshan. It can be seen how much money Chu Yu spent, but as long as you can see His Majesty, Chu Yu feels it is worth it, because this move must be taken from His Majesty. Everyone knows that the Emperor does not have much power now, and as long as he doesn't mess with the Emperor, he will not easily make things difficult for you. So in this regard, Emperor Guangming is a very easy-going person.
Jiang Hengshan said to Chu Yu that day: "Marson, Emperor Guangming has no power or power now. Do we need to see him?"
Chu Yu smiled coldly, "Although the shogun still holds the dominance of Japan, it has become increasingly weak and its life is not long. The trend of history must be that the Emperor controls the world." Chu Yu's affirmative words surprised Jiang Hengshan a little. After watching the current situation, he did not find out at all what strength His Majesty the Emperor has to compete with the shogun.
"But, what power can His Majesty the Emperor have to fight against the shogun?" Jiang Hengshan asked.
Chu Yu sat up and crossed his steps back and forth, "The Emperor has no power but is temporary, but in the hearts of the Japanese, their Emperor is always the most fascinating. To give a simple example, their gods are not to be violated. Even if His Majesty has no power, no shogun dares to abolish His Majesty. At best, they can only use the emperor to command the princes, so the shogun is destined to be a short process in history."
"The Marshal's analysis is very clear, which makes the villain really admire him." Jiang Hengshan flattered that Chu Yu had become numb to this kind of flattery. Since he came to the Ming Dynasty, he either flattered others himself or flattered him.
"You go and contact His Majesty the Emperor now. I will have a detailed discussion with the Emperor this time." Chu Yu said with a smile.
"The Marshal wants to talk to His Majesty the Emperor, has this Marshal figured it out? Jiang Hengshan asked.
"No problem, it's now." Chu Yu answered with certainty.
"Okay, my servant will make arrangements now." Jiang Hengshan stepped down after saying that and made arrangements for Chu Yu.
Why did Chu Yu find His Majesty the Emperor? Chu Yu’s purpose is very simple. To seize power for the Emperor, first follow the development of history, seize the rule of His Majesty the Emperor, and end the chaos in Japan. Secondly, to arrange one’s own strength to enter the ruling class of Japan, control the situation in Japan, and make it the actual vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. To be precise, it is to become Chu Yu himself, be a ruler behind the scenes, control Japan, and look to the future, which is also a way for oneself. Of course, it is impossible to be unable to survive in the Ming Dynasty, it is just an extra road to consider.
Among them, Chu Yu is also responsible for helping Zhu Di find Zhu Yunwen's whereabouts. Japan is so big and the sea of people is vast, how can we find it? It is impossible to rely solely on our own abilities. It also requires the power of His Majesty the Emperor of Japan. Therefore, no matter from which perspective, it is urgent to help His Majesty the Emperor at present.
I don’t know what Zhu Di thinks now. The first thing his ministers want to do after they arrive in other countries is to complete the great cause of unification for other countries.
Facing the fragmented Japan, no one felt helpless, except Chu Yu. Chu Yu met the Emperor Guangming at that time under the arrangement of Jiang Hengshan.
Emperor Guangming's name is Toyotori, his father is Emperor Fumimi, and his mother is Nagako, Nishizoji, Hiroyi Menyuan.
When Chu Yu saw Emperor Guangming, his first impression was that he was honest and easy-going. He looked the same as the Ming Dynasty Prince Zhu Gaochi. A better Emperor Guangming did not have the physical problems like Zhu Gaochi.
Jiang Hengshan also said that when Emperor Guangming said Chu Yu, he only said that Chu Yu was a merchant from the Ming Dynasty. This time he came to establish a trade relationship with the Ming Dynasty in Japan, so this time he mainly discussed trade matters with His Majesty the Emperor.
When Emperor Guangming heard that he was a businessman from the Heavenly Kingdom, his eyes suddenly shone and warmly received Chu Yu. Emperor Guangming naturally knew that the Ming Dynasty was the Heavenly Kingdom, with a large land and abundant resources, and had strong national defense strength. If trade relations could be established and the opportunity to obtain the protection of the Ming Dynasty would be a great blessing for his dynasty.
Of course, Chu Yu also understood, so he accepted it with relief. Since each other has their own needs, let’s take each other’s needs!
At this time, the national conditions of the Japanese Kingdom made His Majesty embarrassed. Ashikaga rebelled against Emperor Go Daigo in Kamakura. The next year, he defeated the court army in the Battle of Minatakawa and captured Kyoto. Emperor Go Daigo fled to Yanriji Temple in Hiei Mountain with three artifacts to fight against Ashikagashi. Ashikagagashi according to Emperor Koyoshi's Ainsuzuno, he announced the deposed Emperor Go Daigo and respected him as the emperor, supporting Toyoto ascended the throne, which was to establish the Northern Dynasties for Emperor Koyoshi. Emperor Go Daigo fled to Yoshino and established the Southern Dynasties. Japanese history entered the Southern Dynasties era of "two emperors in a day" and could even create one island and two countries. Chu Yu was ridiculous, but since this was the case, and he also chose Emperor Koyoshi, he needed to continue and end the rule of the Southern Dynasties.
Chu Yu didn't know what happened to the emperor. He complained to himself as soon as he came, saying that life was hard, saying that his people and country were not living well, which really made Chu Yu a little overwhelmed. Chu Yu came as a businessman, not a general of the Ming Dynasty. Why did he complain to himself?
Perhaps in the heart of this emperor, he believed that anyone who could come to this place from thousands of miles away must be a well-known person, at least in the Ming Dynasty, they were some people with some weight.
Since His Majesty the Emperor is so sincere, Chu Yu can only listen carefully. Although he speaks very miserably, to establish a good relationship, the first step is to learn to listen. Of course, all the dialogues between them are translated by Jiang Hengshan as a character.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, under your rule, Japan has never seen the miserable things you said, but is prosperous!" Chu Yu replied carefully.
Emperor Guangming shook his head. In fact, he felt a kind of pain in his heart that no one could say, that was, he was not justified when he ascended the throne. Emperor Guangming did not hold the three magical tools when he ascended the throne, but just ascended the throne based on Emperor Guangyan's court proclamation.
Those who have no magical artifacts do not have absolute obedience, so this has always been the eternal injury in the heart of Emperor Guangming.
"Three great artifacts?" Chu Yu asked in surprise. He never knew that the emperor of Japan needed such things to ascend the throne. What are the three great artifacts?
One of the artifacts: The Sword of Grass Shave. There is also a wonderful legend about this artifact. According to legend, the god of Haehara, Kensusunoo (the God of Japan's sea) was driven to hide in the Izumo Kingdom as his sister and was the highest god of Japan, Amaterasu (the God of Japan's sun) and was expelled from Takahara to Izumo Kingdom.
One day, Susano Kensu saw chopsticks floating on the river surface and thought there must be a family nearby. So he visited the local villagers. When he walked to an old couple, he cried for his young daughter, Kushinada. Susano Kensu, asked him, it turned out that Yamata Orochi wanted food, and the snake had to eat one of their daughters every year. Until now, there was no girl to worship him anymore, so he had to sacrifice the last daughter.
Kensu Susano actually fell in love with Kushinata Biya, so he decided to destroy the Orochi. First, he turned Kushinata Biya into a comb and inserted it on his head. Then he ordered people to make the fence into eight entrances and high platforms, and eight containers filled with strong wine were placed on the platform. At this time, the Yamai Orochi Fruit came as the old man said, and the earth sang, and his blood-red eyes were bright. Seeing the shining light, it was deeply frightening. When Yamai Orochi saw eight cups of wine, it hung its eight poems.
The first one was buried in the trough to drink the wine and put the strong wine in the trough was all drunk by the big snake. The Yamada Orochi was drunk and slept with a sleep. Seeing this, the man from Sususa immediately pulled out the ten swords on his waist. With this Tian Ten swords, he cut the eight snakes of the Yamada Orochi cut off one by one. After that, he cut the body of the Yamada Orochi and pounded it into a sauce shape. At that time, the Yamada Orochi's blood was stained, and the water of the Fei River flowed bright red.
However, when Fang Jiansu Susano Susano killed the snake tail of the Yamada Snake, the sword he was equipped with was flawed. Jiansu Susano Susano felt strange and thought that there must be something strange about it. So he cut the snake's tail with the sharp edge of the sword. In the snake's tail, there was a big knife from Dumuji. Jiansu Susano took out the big knife and looked at it carefully. He thought that this knife was a strange knife, so he reported this matter to Amaterasu and presented this knife to Amaterasu's great god, which was the sword of grass shaving.
