Bury the Qing Dynasty

Chapter 194 The Prince of Shunyi

Faced with one grassland tribe after another who came to make trouble for him, Qian Deaf and the old dog didn't panic at all - based on the theorem that the essence of the world is better than rotten, the grassland has been harmed by the policy of reducing the population for 100 years , It is actually three points worse than the already bad enough Mizhou Eight Banners.

After getting troubled several times by the Eight Banners of the Grassland, Qian Deaf's old dog has more capital in his hands.

Where does this make sense?
Afterwards, Old Dog Qian Deaf took more than 100 million Eight Banners under his command and ran all the way to Shengjing.

Even the East China Sea Fleet failed to stop Qian Deaf Old Dog near Jinzhou.

After arriving in Shengjing, Qian Deaf old dog directly asked General Shengjing to count the money and food of the Qing soldiers outside the pass, and then retreated into Shengjing city.

As for the one-hundred-thousand-banner disciples...

A mere city of Shengjing certainly cannot hold so many disciples of the Eight Banners, so those who are eligible to stay in Shengjing City are all the elite soldiers of the Eight Banners of Mizhou, and the rest of the common people will be led by General Shengjing to rush to the city first. Yaxa.

The old dog Qian Deaf thought very clearly, if the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty continue to run all the way, they will probably be afraid when they see the banner with the word "Ming" in the future. Therefore, as the emperor himself, he must take them to stay in Shengjing. Waiting for the Ming army to come over, defeat the Ming army, and strengthen my self-confidence in the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty.

This news made Zhu Jinsong laugh.

Since Tokugawa Iechi and Kanehito decided to claim the vassal of Ming Dynasty, Tokugawa Iechi 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 The island was returned to Ryukyu, and he claimed that everything before was a misunderstanding. In the future, everyone will be a vassal of the Ming Dynasty, and they should help each other.

In order to prove his attitude and determination to call himself a vassal, Tokugawa Iezari and Matsudaira Jonobu arrested a group of "Japanese pirates", regardless of whether these Japanese pirates had been to Daming, they directly steamed them on the seaside of the Japanese country, and then Let out rumors, claiming that whoever dares to go to Daming to become a Japanese pirate will only end up being steamed in the end.

Then, Tokugawa Ieki entrusted Zheng Jiangfu to go to Daming, saying that Tokugawa Ieki would personally bring the vassal seal, the tribute to the Fangwushuang, and the Ming envoy to come to Daming to pay tribute.

Looking at the Japanese country, and then looking at the old dog Qian Deaf who has no clues, even Zhu Jinsong, a senior player in Zaan, couldn't figure out how to complain for a while.

Of course, not knowing how to make complaints does not affect the fact that the army and the Sauron camp of the military governor's mansion will teach Qian Deaf to be a man, nor will it affect Zhu Jinsong's curiosity about the Tokugawa family.

At this time, the Tokugawa Ieqi was about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although he was the general who conquered barbarians in Japan in name, and his brains and abilities were not bad, a large part of the power of the shogunate was controlled by Matsudaira. Trust me.

Therefore, Zhu Jinsong couldn't help but be curious about the matter of paying tribute to Ming Dynasty. Is Tokugawa Ieki so powerful that he can decide such a big matter by himself?Or is Tokugawa Iezari just a puppet, and the real mastermind behind the scenes is Matsudaira Sadanobu?

……

When Qian Deaf and the old dog returned to Shengjing with the elite of the Eight Banners, 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 Ming Dynasty?"

Zheng Jiangfu looked at Tokugawa Jiaqi with a confused face, shook his head, and said, "A city like Ningbo is nothing in Daming. Compared with a bustling city like Ningbo, even if it doesn't have a hundred, there must be eighty." .”

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

Stretching out his hand and gesticulating in front of him, Tokugawa Jiaqi shook his right hand again, made an eight sign, and asked, "If there is no one hundred, there are eighty? Is this the same empty finger as the white hair, or is there really so much?"

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

Tokugawa Iezai was a little sour.

God Amaterasu really favored the Han people, basically gave them all good things, but gave Japan only earthquakes, volcanoes, and wars.

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

In the entire Wa Kingdom, the general height of the common people is less than five feet-according to the conversion of 33.333 centimeters per foot, the average height of the Japanese slaves at this time is 148~151, which is really less than five feet.

Even Tokugawa Ieqi, who is 1.5 meters tall, can be regarded as "big and tall" in Wa country at this time.

The average height of the people in the Central Plains on the street is about 1.6 meters 1.6, although it is a few centimeters shorter than the 160 meters [-] in the Ming Dynasty. How far-reaching the Qing Dynasty was to the people of the Central Plains), but it is still a head higher than the Tokugawa family.

If one person or two are taller than the Tokugawa family, then the Tokugawa family can barely accept it, but if anyone caught on the street is taller than the Tokugawa family, then the Tokugawa family's feeling in his heart is not good. I really don't know how to describe it.

After strolling around for a while, Tokugawa Jiaqi sighed, and said: "Meng Yuan misunderstood me for a hundred years, and this hatred will last forever!"

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

If Meng Yuan had enmity with the Wa Kingdom, then Zheng Jiangfu would admit it, but wouldn't it be a bit too bullshit to say that Meng Yuan missed the Wa Kingdom by a hundred years?

Zheng Jiangfu thought about it and asked, "Why did the general say that?"

The Tokugawa family sighed together, and said: "If it weren't for the Mongolian Yuan's invasion of the Central Plains, the crossing of our Japanese country to the Central Plains would have continued. If so, how can our Japanese people be as short as they are now?"

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

After strolling around for a while, Tokugawa Jiaqi couldn't help asking 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 about the Japanese pirates back then?" ? They don't bear any grudges against me, Japan?"

Zheng Jiangfu laughed, and replied: "Back to the general, the people of Ming Dynasty don't hold grudges against the Wa Kingdom, because Qi Taibao has already avenged him. If it wasn't for Qi Taibao, it must be a different scene."

"There is an old saying in the Central Plains, which is called "A gentleman takes revenge, ten years is not too late", and there is another old saying called "Xiang Gong recovers the revenge of the ninth generation, and the Spring and Autumn Period is the most important one." Otherwise, even after 100 or 200 years, Ming people will remember to take revenge."

Tokugawa Jiaqi nodded and said nothing more.

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

What made the Tokugawa family envious was that the cities along the way that were bigger and more prosperous than Kyoto were actually just ordinary Daming cities, not the capital of Daming.

When Tokugawa Jiaqi finally arrived outside the city of Jinan, Tokugawa Jiaqi was finally extremely convinced that the decision he and Matsudaira Sadanobu made was correct.

Zheng Jiangfu looked at Tokugawa Jiaqi, who was similar to the untouchables in the Kanto countryside, and said, "This is the temporary capital of Ming Dynasty, Jinan City."

Tokugawa Jiaqi pointed at Jinan Mansion with a confused face, and asked, "Is this just a temporary capital?"

Zheng Jiangfu hummed, and replied: "Yes, this is the temporary capital of Ming Dynasty. The real capital of Ming Dynasty is actually in Zhili. Presumably, in about a year, the court of Ming Dynasty will move to the capital of Zhili."

The Tokugawa family hummed, and after being silent for a long while, they raised their heads, looked at Zheng Jiangfu and said, "If there is really a lineage of gods in the world, it should be the emperor of Ming Dynasty, not the one in the imperial palace in Kyoto. The so-called emperor."

Zheng Jiangfu also nodded, and said: "Yes, so, please, the general, please pay attention to the etiquette when meeting the emperor of Ming Dynasty—according to the rules, you can have an audience as the general of the shogunate, but you'd better choose to use the emperor of Ming Dynasty." The emperor canonized the Shunyi County King's County King Ceremony to see him."

Of course Tokugawa Iezari knew this.

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

For example, murderous, ruthless, ruthless, strict with self-discipline, loving the people like a son, these contradictory adjectives are all labels that Tokugawa Iechi put on Zhu Jinsong.

It is said that Zhu Jinsong is murderous, ruthless, and cruel because Zhu Jinsong can directly order the Portuguese barbarians to be built into a capital.

As the great general who conquered barbarians of the Wa Kingdom, Tokugawa Ieki certainly knew what Jingguan was.

It is said that Zhu Jinsong is strict with self-discipline because Zhu Jinsong has always regarded the Shandong governor's office in the Qing Dynasty as a temporary palace, and never spent money on large-scale construction and pleasure.

The point of loving the people like a child is judged from the news published by the "Da Ming Daily" and the living conditions of the people of the Ming Dynasty.

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

It's just that after Tokugawa Jiaqi finished learning the rules, and finally waited for Zhu Jinsong's summoning order, Tokugawa Jiaqi found that he couldn't walk anymore.

Even if he is already very familiar with the streets of Jinan City, even if he has learned the etiquette of meeting with the officials of the Ministry of Rites, even if the "temporary palace" where Chang Zhu Jinsong lives is not very tall.

According to the ritual system of the Qing Dynasty, the governor's office in Shandong was not qualified to use yellow glazed tiles, white marble railings, and blue bricks and red walls for palace buildings. After Zhu Jinsong moved in, he was reluctant to spend money on renovations, so everything was kept. The way it was before.

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

Especially those soldiers standing with guns from outside the palace gate to the outside of the palace made Tokugawa Ieqi secretly frightened, afraid that he would make even a small mistake.

Step by step, prostration, prostration, prostration, kneeling, the etiquette sent by the Ministry of Rites to teach, was meticulously performed by Tokugawa Jiaqi.

After bowing down on the ground, Tokugawa Ieki pressed his forehead tightly to the ground, and said: "Minister, Tokugawa Ieki, I greet my emperor, long live, long live, long live!"

Tokugawa Jiaqi remembers very clearly that the officials of the Ministry of Rites once said: No matter when you kneel on the ground or stand in the middle of the court, unless the emperor ordered you, you can't look up at the emperor without authorization.

If you raise your head without the permission of the emperor, you will be judged by the big man on duty in the palace as a conspiracy, wanting to assassinate the king, etc. The only consequence is to say goodbye to your head and neck.

Zhu Jinsong looked at Tokugawa Ieki who was obediently lying in the middle of the "main hall", and said with a smile: "Let's get flat."

After Tokugawa Jiaqi got up from the ground and stood obediently on the "chaotang", Zhu Jinsong went on to say: "I heard that those who have gone in the past should not be chased back. The misunderstandings of the past have now been eliminated." , I also hope that after the Qing family returns to the Wa Kingdom, they will restrain the people well and never use weapons again!"

Tokugawa Iemitsu prostrated himself on the ground again, and said: "My lord, please follow my imperial edict."

Foreign minister?The minister of the next country?
No, no, that's the etiquette and self-proclaiming used by that lowly low-class talent of Jianren. I, Tokugawa Ieki, the king of Shunyi County of Ming Dynasty conferred by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, of course cannot be the same as that lowly person of Jianren.
