Chapter 194 The angry Prince of Shunyi

Faced with the grassland tribes that came one after another to cause trouble for him, Qian Deaf Old Dog didn't panic at all - based on the theorem that the nature of the world is to be worse, the people who have been harmed by the reduction policy for a hundred years

Grassland is actually three points worse than the already bad Eight Banners of Qizhou.

After being troubled by the Eight Banners of the Grassland several times in a row, Qian Deafangou had a little more capital in his hands.

Where can I reason from this?

Then, Qian Deafangou took his more than one million Eight Banners disciples and ran straight to Shengjing.

Even the East China Sea Fleet failed to stop Qian Deafangou near Jinzhou.

After arriving in Shengjing, Qian Deafangou directly asked General Shengjing to count the money and food of the soldiers of the Qing Dynasty outside the pass, and then all of them retreated to Shengjing city.

As for the one million Eight Banners disciples...

A mere Shengjing City would definitely not be able to accommodate so many Eight Banners disciples, so those who are eligible to stay in Shengjing City are all elite soldiers of the Eight Banners in Qi Prefecture. The remaining civilians will be led by General Shengjing and rush there first.

Yaksa.

Qian deaf old dog thought very clearly. If the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty continue to run like this, they will probably be afraid when they see the "Ming" flag in the future. Therefore, as the emperor, he must take them to stay in Shengjing.

Waiting for the Ming army to come over, defeat the Ming army and enhance our self-confidence in the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty.

This news made Zhu Jinsong laugh.

After Tokugawa Ieqi and Kanehito decided to declare a domain to the Ming Dynasty, Tokugawa Ieqi directly transferred the Satsuma domain to the Ezo area, and then personally found the descendants of the Ryukyu royal family and transferred the Amami clan to them.

The island was returned to Ryukyu, and he claimed that everything in the past was a misunderstanding. From now on, everyone is a vassal of the Ming Dynasty and should help each other.

In order to prove his attitude and determination to claim the domain, Tokugawa Ieki and Matsudaira Sadanobu captured a group of "Japanese pirates". Regardless of whether these Japanese pirates had ever been to the Ming Dynasty, they steamed them directly on the beach of Japan, and then

Spread the word, claiming that anyone who dares to go to Ming Dynasty to become a Japanese pirate will only end up being steamed.

Then, Tokugawa Ieqi entrusted Zheng Jiangfu to make a trip to the Ming Dynasty, saying that Tokugawa Ieqiu would come to the Ming Dynasty personally with the official seal of the feudal clan, the tribute Fangmonoshuang and the Ming Dynasty envoy to declare his vassalship and pay tribute.

Looking at the Japanese country, and then looking at the money-deaf old dog with no money, even Zhu Jinsong, a senior player in Zaun, couldn't think of how to complain.

Of course, not knowing how to complain does not affect the fact that the army in the Houjun Governor's Palace and the Solon Battalion will teach Qian Deaf the old dog how to behave, nor does it affect Zhu Jinsong's curiosity about Tokugawa Jiaqi.

At this time, Tokugawa Ieki was probably about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he was nominally the general of Japan's conquest of barbarians, and his brains and abilities were not bad, a large part of the power of the shogunate was controlled by Matsudaira Sadada.

The letter is in hand.

Therefore, Zhu Jinsong couldn't help but be curious about the matter of paying tribute to the Ming Dynasty. Is Tokugawa Ieqi powerful enough to decide such a big matter by himself? Or is Tokugawa Ieqiu just a puppet and the real mastermind behind the scenes?

Is it actually Matsudaira Sadanobu?

…

When Qian deaf old dog withdrew the elite Eight Banners back to Shengjing, Tokugawa Jiaqi had just arrived in Ningbo.

As soon as he arrived in Ningbo, Tokugawa Jiaqi asked Zheng Jiangfu who came to greet him: "Is this the most prosperous city in the Ming Dynasty?"

Zheng Jiangfu looked at Tokugawa Jiaqi in confusion, shook his head, and said: "A city like Ningbo is nothing in the Ming Dynasty. A city more prosperous than Ningbo must be eighty if not a hundred.

.”

This time it was the Tokugawa family's turn to be confused.

Stretching out his hand and making gestures in front of him, Tokugawa Ieki shook his right hand again, made an eight gesture, and asked: "If there is not a hundred, there is also eighty? Is this an imaginary finger like the white-haired thousand feet, or is it really there?

so much?"

Zheng Jiangfu said: "There are really so many."

Tokugawa Jiaqi was a little sour.

Amaterasu is really too partial to the Han people. He basically gives them all good things, but only gives Japan earthquakes, volcanoes, and wars.

Especially after following Zheng Jiangfu around the city of Ningbo for a few times, Tokugawa Jiaqi's feeling became even more obvious.

Throughout the Japanese kingdom, the average height of the common people was less than five feet - based on the fact that each foot is equal to 33.333 centimeters, the average height of the Japanese slaves at this time was 148~151cm, which was really less than five feet.

Even Tokugawa Ieki, who was 1.55 meters tall, could be considered a "tall man" in Japan at that time.

The average height of the Central Plains people on the street is about 1.62 meters, although it is a few centimeters shorter than the 1.66 meters in the Ming Dynasty. (For details, please see Chapter 160, The Centennial Layout of the Qing Dynasty, which states

Although the Qing Dynasty caused far-reaching harm to the people of the Central Plains), it is still a head above the Tokugawa family.

If one or two people are taller than the Tokugawa family, then the Tokugawa family can barely accept it. But if anyone picked out on the street is taller than the Tokugawa family, then the Tokugawa family feels like this.

I really don’t know how to describe it.

After wandering around for a while, Tokugawa Jiaqi sighed and said: "The Meng Yuan has wronged our Japanese country for hundreds of years, and this hatred will never go away!"

Zheng Jiangfu, who was following Tokugawa Iaqi, was a little confused.

If Meng Yuan had a grudge against Japan, then Zheng Jiangfu would admit it, but to say that Meng Yuan missed Japan for a hundred years, is that a bit nonsense?

Zheng Jiangfu thought carefully and asked: "Why did the general say this?"

The Tokugawa family sighed and said: "If it hadn't been for the Mongolian Yuan invasion of the Central Plains, our Japanese country would have continued to transfer its species to the Central Plains. In this case, how could our Japanese people be as short as they are now?"

When he heard the word "transfer", Zheng Jiangfu didn't know what to say.

After wandering around for a while, Tokugawa Jiaqi couldn't help but asked curiously: "I don't think the people in the Central Plains look at me with hatred? Could it be that the people in the Central Plains have forgotten the Japanese pirates?

?They don’t bear any grudge against our Japanese country?”

Zheng Jiangfu laughed loudly and replied: "Returning to the general, the people of Ming Dynasty do not bear hatred against the Japanese country, because Qi Taibao has already avenged his revenge. If it weren't for Qi Taibao, things would have been different at this time."

"There is an ancient saying in the Central Plains, which is called "A gentleman's revenge is never too late in ten years." There is also an old saying that "Xiang Gong recovers the revenge of the ninth generation, and the spring and Autumn period will be great." If possible, the Japanese country must not conflict with the Ming Dynasty.

Otherwise, even if one hundred or two hundred years have passed, the people of the Ming Dynasty will still remember revenge."

Tokugawa Jiaqi nodded and said nothing more.

After handling the goods brought by this trip, Tokugawa Ieqi set foot on the road north.

What makes the Tokugawa family jealous is that the cities along the way that are bigger and more prosperous than Kyoto are actually just ordinary Ming cities, not the capital of the Ming Dynasty.

When Tokugawa Ieqi finally arrived outside Jinan City, Tokugawa Ieqi was finally extremely convinced that he and Matsudaira Sadanobu's decision was correct.

Zheng Jiangfu looked at Tokugawa Jiaqi, who was almost a pariah in the Kanto countryside, and said: "This is the temporary capital of the Ming Dynasty, Jinan City."

Tokugawa Jiaqi pointed at Jinan Mansion with a confused look on his face and asked: "Is this just a temporary capital?"

Zheng Jiangfu hummed and replied: "Yes, this is the temporary capital of the Ming Dynasty. The real capital of the Ming Dynasty is actually in Zhili. It must be that in another year or so, the Ming court should move to the capital of Zhili."

The Tokugawa family all hummed, and after being silent for a long time, they raised their heads, looked at Zheng Jiangfu and said: "If there really is a god of eternal lineage in the world, it should be the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, not the palace in Kyoto.

The so-called emperor."

Zheng Jiangfu also nodded and said: "Yes, so general, please pay attention to the etiquette when meeting the Ming Emperor - according to the rules, you can meet as the shogunate general who conquered the barbarians, but you'd better choose to use the Ming Emperor

The prince of Shunyi who has been conferred by the emperor will have an audience with him."

Tokugawa Ieki certainly knew this.

In fact, Tokugawa Jiaqi had some understanding of Zhu Jinsong, the Ming emperor, through what he saw and heard along the way.

For example, he was murderous, ruthless, ruthless, strict with himself, and loved his people like a son. These contradictory adjectives were all labels given to Zhu Jinsong by Tokugawa Ieki.

It is said that Zhu Jinsong was murderous, ruthless, and ruthless because Zhu Jinsong could directly order the Portuguese barbarians to build a Jingguan.

As the Japanese general who conquered barbarians, Tokugawa Jiaqi certainly knew what Jingguan was.

It is said that Zhu Jinsong was strict in self-discipline because Zhu Jinsong always regarded the governor's office of Shandong during the Qing Dynasty as a temporary palace and never spent money on large-scale construction projects or enjoyment.

The point of loving the people as one's own children can be judged from the news published by the "Da Ming Daily" and the living conditions of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

It was precisely because of these contradictory labels that Tokugawa Ieki planned to learn the rules honestly from the officials of the Ministry of Rites, so as not to be treated as a negative teaching material.

However, after Tokugawa Jiaqi finished learning the rules and finally received Zhu Jinsong's summons, Tokugawa Jiaqi found that he could no longer walk.

Even if you are already very familiar with the streets of Jinan City, even if you have learned the etiquette of meeting people from the officials of the Ministry of Rites, even if the "temporary palace" where Chang Zhu Jinsong is located is not that tall.

According to the etiquette system of the Qing Dynasty, the Shandong governor's office was not qualified to use yellow glazed tiles, white marble railings and blue bricks and red walls in palace buildings. After Zhu Jinsong moved in, he was reluctant to spend money to renovate, so everything was retained.

The way it looked before.

The problem is that in the eyes of Tokugawa Ieki, such a low temporary palace is like a giant beast that has been entrenched between heaven and earth since ancient times, exuding indescribable majesty and domineering everywhere.

Especially the soldiers standing with guns from outside the palace gate to the outside of the palace made the Tokugawa family secretly frightened, fearing that they would make even a small mistake.

Following each step, bowing, bowing, rising, kneeling, the etiquette sent by the Ministry of Rites was taught by Tokugawa Ieki meticulously.

After prostrating himself on the ground, Tokugawa Ieki pressed his forehead tightly to the ground and bowed: "My lord, Tokugawa Ieki, long live our emperor, long live, long live!"

Tokugawa Jiaqi remembered very clearly that an official of the Ministry of Rites once said: No matter when you are kneeling on the ground or standing in the court, you cannot look up to the emperor without permission unless the emperor has ordered it.

If you raise your head without the emperor's permission, you will be judged by the powerful general in the palace as having evil intentions, wanting to assassinate the king, etc. The only consequence will be to say goodbye to your head and neck.

Zhu Jinsong looked at Tokugawa Jiaqi who was lying obediently in the "main hall" and said with a smile: "Get back on your feet."

After the Tokugawa family all got up from the ground and stood obediently in the "Chaotang", Zhu Jinsong continued: "I heard that you can't chase those who have passed away in the past. The misunderstandings of the past have now been eliminated.

, I also hope that after the Qing family returns to the Japanese country, they can restrain the people and never start another war!"

Tokugawa Iemitsu prostrated himself on the ground again and said: "O minister, I sincerely obey my emperor's decree."

Foreign minister? Small minister of the country?

No, no, no, those are the etiquette and self-identification used by that despicable low-class person named Jianren. I, the Tokugawa family, the Prince of Shunyi County of the Ming Dynasty canonized by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, certainly cannot be the same as that despicable low-class person named Jianren.
