Wanli 1592

Chapter 1095
At the time of the Ming and Qin Dynasties, the Mo family responded in a timely manner and arrived in Beijing as quickly as possible to pay tribute to the Great Qin Emperor. He still called himself the Annan Metropolitan Envoy and sought the protection of the Great Qin.

At that time, Southeast Asian countries including Siam had been under the threat of Xiao Ruxun for a long time. When they heard that he had actually defeated Ming Dynasty and became the emperor of China, they immediately sent envoys to express their submission. Shi to slow down.

Xiao Ruxun was busy planning the purge at the time, and didn't care about it. He directly appointed the Annan Metropolitan Envoy of the Mo family, confiscated the seal and ribbon given by the Ming Dynasty, and replaced it with the Daqin version of the seal and ribbon.

I thought the matter had come to an end, but the envoys of the Li family from the Li Dynasty also came to Beijing and asked Daqin to re-canonize the Li family as "King of Annan". This made the officials of Honglu Temple at that time very depressed.

The Ming Dynasty didn't want to get involved too much in Annan's issue, so they hastily conferred the title of Annan's Commander-in-Chief to Mo Shi.

However, the Hou Li Dynasty did not just decline, but survived tenaciously, and later developed into a situation where the four parties stood side by side, and each party wanted China's canonization to obtain the orthodox name of righteousness.

As a result, the Mo family was attacked and fled to the territory of Daqin, so they had to ask Daqin's father for help.

Xiao Ruxun had just freed up his hands to abolish the Honglu Temple, built an upgraded version of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on its basis, and was preparing to send diplomatic ambassadors to various countries to increase Daqin's influence on neighboring countries, when this incident happened.

The Minister of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs followed Xiao Ruxun all the way to the Northern Expedition from Nanjing, and Ma Cheng, who later became a supporter, because the newly established Ministry of Foreign Affairs will carry out a certain sense of business connection with Heishui, which can be regarded as a high position, so it must be handed over. to someone you can trust.

Faced with this matter, the newly appointed Ma Butang also found it a bit tricky.

The Southern and Northern dynasties are opposed to each other, and they all want the orthodoxy given by Daqin, but this is still a mess that was left unattended by the previous Ming Dynasty. It is also an unreasonable mess to Daqin.

In the past, it was clear that the king of Annan of the Li family was the first to be canonized, but after the Mo family usurped the throne, he was appointed the commander of the Annan capital, which is tantamount to acknowledging the Mo family's rule over Annan. , making Daqin very embarrassed now.

Ma Cheng told the cabinet about this matter, Wang Xijue and Li Tingji looked at each other after seeing it, they could only tell this matter to Xiao Ruxun, let the emperor make a decision, Xiao Ruxun also felt that it was not easy to do after receiving the news, so he called Wang Xijue to the palace discuss.

But he and Wang Xijue couldn't discuss anything, so they called Li Tingji and Ma Cheng into the palace to discuss.

The role played by the Ming Dynasty in this matter was too embarrassing. It made the current Daqin a pit, and obviously named the orthodox King Annan. orthodox.

It is very difficult for both orthodoxy in the south and the north to be in the name of orthodoxy now.

To put it mildly, this is their internal dispute, but to put it seriously, it is related to the operation of the internal rules of the tributary system headed by Daqin, and it is related to the prestige of Daqin in the surrounding countries.

Your Daqin is the suzerain country, if this matter is not handled well, it will definitely be your Daqin's fault, and you are duty bound.

Don’t say it’s Ming’s fault, you have inherited the legal system of Ming Dynasty and become orthodox, so you have to do this to maintain China’s tributary system.

"Your Majesty, this matter concerns my Great Qin State. If it is not handled properly, the surrounding vassal states will not know how to criticize it in their hearts."

Wang Xijue first explained the importance of this matter, and matters related to Daqin's international status are definitely not trivial matters.

Daqin can't play the piano casually, otherwise it will cause dissatisfaction among the vassal states and cause chaos, and Daqin will have to take the blame again.

"Your Majesty, the Jingshi Police Headquarters reported that Mo's envoys and Li's envoys met in the capital. How to deal with it.

Your Majesty, this incident happened in the downtown area, and it has already spread. Now the surrounding small countries are probably waiting to see the result of His Majesty's handling. If it is not handled properly, it will greatly affect the prestige of Daqin. Please think twice. "

Li Tingji brought another trouble to Xiao Ruxun.

Xiao Ruxun rubbed her temples irritably.

"I didn't leave even after taking the rewards. It's purely to cause trouble for me. The Mo family and the Li family are really terrified! Hmph! Old Wang Ge, old Li Ge, what do you think?"

Wang Xijue and Li Tingji looked at each other.

"Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this matter is an old problem left over from the Jiajing period of the previous Ming Dynasty. It has been delayed for a long time, and it is now a bad debt with unclear reasons. It is Le family who is more orthodox.

The Li family was the king of Annan who was conferred by Xuanzong of the former Ming Dynasty during the reign of Emperor Xuande of the former Ming Dynasty. Although the Mo family was rebellious, he was the envoy of the Annan capital conferred by the former Emperor Shizong of the Ming Dynasty. By the way, this..."

Wang Xijue was speechless.

Xiao Ruxun picked up the tea bowl and took a sip of tea.

"I can't ask them to fight a battle to decide the winner, and then Daqin canonize it again? There are enough bad debts left by the Ming Dynasty, and now there is another one. Is it just for them to wipe their ass? "

The three people in front of them lowered their heads, slandering in their hearts—isn't it?Who told you to overthrow someone and become the emperor?If you don't wipe your butt, who will wipe it?

Putting down the tea bowl, Xiao Ruxun took a deep breath.

"The deployment of troops in the Southwest is imminent, so we can't make extra troubles. Both sides will fight [-] big boards each."

The three looked at each other.

Wang Xijue said: "Your Majesty is saying? Both parties will be canonized?"

"It means that the two parties involved in the disturbance in the capital each hit [-] boards, and immediately sent an order to Chen Xie to handle it personally, punishing the envoys of the Mo family and the Li family [-] times each, and warning them not to cause trouble in Daqin. The first time is [-] sticks, and the next time is beheading! Also, have they caused losses to the people by causing trouble? If so, compensate according to the price."

"The old minister obeys the order, what about the canonization, Your Majesty?"

Wang Xijue asked again.

"Canonized..."

Xiao Ruxun considered for a while, then looked at Ma Cheng: "Ma Butang, how are you preparing for sending diplomatic ambassadors to the vassal states?"

"Returning to His Majesty, everything is ready, but Annan doesn't know whether to send it to the Mo family or the Li family."

Ma Cheng looked at Xiao Ruxun helplessly.

Xiao Ruxun took another deep breath to suppress the restlessness in her heart.

This group of worry-free things!
"After all, the Li family is the Annan orthodoxy established earlier, while the Mo family is a rebellious official. Daqin should flaunt the orthodoxy and reject rebellion. In terms of emotion and reason, the Li family should be canonized as the king of Annan, not the Mo family."

Xiao Ruxun said slowly, then glanced at Ma Cheng.

Ma Cheng instantly understood what Xiao Ruxun meant.

"Your Majesty, although the Mo family is rebellious, it is precisely because of this that they will be obedient to the former Ming Dynasty and will not hesitate to surrender their national status. Now that the Mo family is in crisis, if Daqin helps me, the Mo family will definitely be grateful to me. Daqin Ruo Whatever you want Mo Shi to do, Mo Shi will not dare to disobey."

Wang Xijue didn't say anything, Li Tingji glanced at Ma Cheng, then bowed his head and remained silent.
