I, Altria, only want to rule China.

Even the women of Wu State are the same, they are all slightly taller than the men of Japan State.

If one or two people were taller than the people in Japan, she could still barely accept it. But if anyone picked up at random on the street was taller than the tallest person in Japan, the feeling in the heart of the Queen of Yamatai was really indescribable.

"Mother, why are you just looking at these people from Wu without saying anything?" Seeing his mother staring at the people of Wu in a daze, He Ji asked with some confusion.

"He Ji, don't you find that these Wu people are very tall? I wonder if we Japanese people can also be that tall." Hearing her daughter's question, the Queen of Yamatai thought for a while and said.

"This... I was also very surprised before I came here, so I asked the young officials of Wu State about this question, and they told me about it."

"Oh, what did they say?" Hearing this, the Queen of Yamatai asked hurriedly.

He Ji thought for a while and said, "They say this is a genetic problem for us Japanese. It's like a man and a woman get married, and if one of them has dementia, the child may inherit this dementia. And the reason why we Japanese have always been so short is because both parents are short, so we can't have tall children."

"If what you said is true, does it mean that if the women of our Japanese country marry the people of Wu country, then the children born will inherit the genes of their parents, and this will be passed down through several generations. Will all the children in the future be taller?" asked the Queen of Yamatai.

Chapter 187: Let the Japanese Men Sacrifice

He Ji thought for a moment and said uncertainly: "This... I don't know either. If we go by what Wu Guo said, maybe there is this possibility."

"In this case, perhaps we can try to have all the women in our country of Japan marry with the people of the country of Wu. Then when these pregnant women return to Japan, maybe we will know then." The Queen of Yamatai thought for a while and said.

Kazuhime hesitated for a moment and asked, "If that's the case, mother, then what about the men in our country?"

"Don't worry about that. We are only sending some women to Wu. Anyway, Japan is always at war and men often die in large numbers. The number of men in Japan is far less than that of women, so there is no need to worry that they can't marry women."

However, although Japanese men can still marry women, they can only marry ugly women. After all, Japanese people are short, and women are even shorter. If women who go to Wuguo are not beautiful enough, they will not be able to attract Wuguo men.

However, if the genes of the next generation of Japan can really be changed, then the sacrifice of Japanese men would be worth it in the eyes of the Queen of Yamatai.

However, the Queen of Yamatai did not know that although her decision to breed children did change the genes of the descendants of Japan, it also completely destroyed the bloodline of the local people of Japan.

This is because all children born from the union of men from Japan and Wu are almost all tall, and these children when they grow up naturally look down on the short men from their own country, Japan.

In addition, the officials who came to power later gradually became tall and strong.

A chain of contempt naturally formed in Japan, so the dwarfs were constantly sent to various places to do hard labor. Eventually, those dwarfs gradually disappeared in Japan and were never seen again.

After staying in Ningbo for a day, the group set out again on the road northwards.

What made the Queen of Yamatai envious and jealous was that the cities along the way that were larger and more prosperous than their Yamatai capital were actually just ordinary Wu cities, not the capital of Wu.

When they arrived in Chang'an of Wu State and saw the majestic and tall city walls.

"Mother, this is Chang'an, the capital of Wu State." He Ji personally introduced to his mother.

The Queen of Yamatai looked at the city in front of her and hummed. After a long silence, she finally believed that the treaties her daughter signed were absolutely correct.

"Even so, mother, you cannot meet the emperor of Wu State at present. Instead, you must first learn the etiquette of Wu State, and then meet him with the ceremony of a prince conferred by Wu State." He Ji said.

The Queen of Yamatai was of course aware of this. When she came, He Ji told her about some of the etiquette and rules of the Wu State, and she also learned a little on the way.

And on the way, she also discovered that there was something called a newspaper in Wu State, which contained many records about Wu State.

With what I saw and heard along the way, I have some understanding of Leah, the empress of the Wu Kingdom.

Putting aside all the things that were attributed to Leah, such as loving her people like her own children, the empress of Wu Kingdom actually did not have a husband, but instead had a wife.

It is also said that the two are sisters. They have been married for nearly 20 years and are still in love. They have also given birth to several children, but what is strange is that they are all girls.

Can women give birth to children? Does the Queen of Wu Kingdom also have abilities that ordinary people don't have? Just like these witches.

After the Queen of Yamatai learned the rules, she finally received the summons from Leah.

When she followed the officials of the Wu State to the imperial palace, looking at this palace, it was as if it was a giant beast that had been entrenched between heaven and earth since ancient times, exuding indescribable majesty and dominance everywhere.

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

He followed the official cautiously and met the Emperor Wu who was sitting on the dragon throne.

Although she looked like a girl younger than her daughter, she had an indescribable majestic aura on her face that made her dare not even look at her for any longer.

He immediately prostrated himself on the ground, saying, "Your Majesty, the prince of Yamatai, Ming Jianji, pays respect to His Majesty the Holy Emperor. Long live His Majesty, long live His Majesty, long, long live His Majesty!"

He Ji, the daughter of the Queen of Yamatai, also knelt down immediately.

Liya looked at the mother and daughter below and smiled slightly, "My two dears, please stand up."

After the two of them got up from the ground, Leah continued:

"The past incidents of Japanese coming to our Wu Kingdom to cause chaos are now in the past. I hope that when the prince returns to Japan, he will properly control the people and not start a war again!

The Queen of Yamatai prostrated herself on the ground again: "Your Majesty, I will obey the Emperor's command."

"Since the Queen of Yamatai is already a princess of my Wu Kingdom, then we can talk about the invasion of my vassal state by Yamato, another country in Japan. How do you think it should be resolved?" asked Leah.

"Your Majesty, the Yamato Kingdom invaded the Yamatai Kingdom, a vassal of the Wu Kingdom. We cannot let them off easily. Moreover, they allowed the people of the Yamato Kingdom to commit crimes on the coast of the Wu Kingdom. We must have an opinion on this matter!"

"Your Majesty, please allow me to lead a large army. I will personally conquer Yamato and capture their leader before Your Majesty, and make him admit his fault."

"Your Majesty, this Yamato country..."

In short, everyone in the court was unhappy with Yamato's behavior and expressed their intention to send troops to Yamato to teach them a severe lesson.

Leah made a decision.

Let Zhejiang lead a navy of 10,000 and prepare to set out to Japan in half a month to crush Yamato!

After receiving the news that Leah was personally sending troops, the queen of Yamatai finally felt relieved.

After the tribute process was completed, the Queen of Yamatai came to meet the emperor privately as the Prince of Wu.

Although she didn't know what the other party was going to do, but since she came to meet him in this capacity, that is, she put herself in the identity of a Chinese, Leah still met with him.

After meeting Leah, Namahime told Leah why she came to see her.

"Your Majesty, although I have lived in Japan for a long time, I admire the culture of Wu Country very much. I hope Your Majesty can choose a learned scholar as my teacher. I will be very grateful."

Hearing this, Leah readily agreed.

As for the current Confucianism, it is all Confucianism after being castrated by the Han Dynasty. Theoretically, the teachings of these corrupt Confucian scholars are pure rubbish. Leah would never let the people learn this kind of corrupt Confucian teachings.

Although our own people are not allowed to learn it, it does not mean that foreigners cannot learn it.

Chapter 188 Confucianism is still very useful

For example, if these Confucian ideas were used to teach Rome, Sassanid Persia, Franks, and now Japan, they would all be excellent choices!

As for whether there are still corrupt scholars in Wu State who are proficient in this kind of corrupt Confucianism... of course there are a lot of them. People's lifespan is very long. From the establishment of Wu State to its unification, it was only 20 years. Those famous Confucian scholars have not died out yet.

And even if Leah no longer attaches much importance to Confucianism, as descendants of Confucius, they will not abandon their own Confucianism just because Leah does not attach importance to it.

Now everyone is a master of Confucianism. Liya was just worried that these people had nothing to do. Isn't this a problem?

Obviously, the queen of Wakoku did not investigate Confucianism in Wukoku, which is currently not very popular in Wukoku. However, Confucianism ruled for more than 500 years in the dynasties before Wukoku.

Therefore, Confucianism is of far-reaching significance to China. Even though Leah is now constantly weakening the influence of Confucianism, it is not so fast. Therefore, when these foreign countries come to China, the first thing they can come into contact with is Confucianism.

When these foreign countries saw how great the influence of Confucianism was on China, they all thought it was a good thing. In addition, Leah also recommended Confucianism to them from time to time, which created an illusion for those foreign countries.

The reason why Wu State is so powerful now is because of Confucianism. After all, if we want to meet the Queen of Wu State, we must first learn various etiquette from Confucianism, right?

Only after learning these etiquettes can one meet the Empress of Wu. In addition, most of the officials in the court of Wu are Confucian scholars. Doesn't this show that the Empress of Wu attaches great importance to Confucianism?

It can be said that these foreigners were completely wrong.

Seeing that Liya agreed, the Queen of Yamatai continued, "Your Majesty, now that our country of Japan has once again become a vassal of the country of Wu, I would like to send Japanese envoys to the country of Wu to study. I hope Your Majesty will grant your approval?"

Liya was still thinking about how to promote the teachings of the corrupt Confucian scholars to Japan. The Queen of Yamatai was a great help!

Leah hummed without changing her expression and said, "Okay."

After the Queen of Yamatai left, Leah hurriedly ordered people to summon the descendants of Confucius to the palace.

To be honest, Kong Lingzhen was actually very frustrated, and was completely confused by Leah's summons.

As a descendant of Confucius, he originally lived a very comfortable life during the Northern Wei Dynasty, and was even granted the title of Chongsheng Hou. However, after the Northern Wei Dynasty was defeated by Liya and the Wu Kingdom was established, Confucianism was denounced by the Empress of the Wu Kingdom.

Even he, the descendant of Confucius, was looked at with strange eyes. It was nonsense to say that Kong Lingzhen had no feelings for Liya.

But the problem is that Leah, the female emperor of Wu State, has never said anything bad about Confucius. Instead, she directly changed the private sacrifice to a public sacrifice, and threw the work that their descendants should do to the Ministry of Rites, raising the standard of the sacrifice to a higher level.

In other words, Confucius should still be worshipped, and his title as the Great Sage and Teacher has not changed at all, although he will be publicly worshipped together with a large number of sages such as Mencius, Xunzi, Han Feizi, etc.

He didn't know what kind of mood he should have towards the current Queen of Wu State.

However, after so many years, he has become a little more open-minded. After all, the current prosperity of Wu State does not really have much to do with Confucianism.

So he now re-read Confucianism and found that there were indeed many problems in it. He thought that it was not that Confucianism was not good, but that Confucianism was not suitable for the Wu Kingdom.

Should he modify Confucianism and make it suitable for the Wu Kingdom, just like Dong Zhongshu did in the Han Dynasty? In this way, will Confucianism be able to flourish again?

Just when he was planning to revise Confucianism and create a set of Confucianism suitable for the Wu Kingdom, he did not expect that Her Majesty the Queen would summon him.

Under normal circumstances, these poor departments have a lot of trouble. Apart from building schools and the like, they basically have no major connections with other departments in the court.

Therefore, he was very surprised that Her Majesty the Queen summoned him alone.

When Kong Lingzhen, who looked confused, arrived at the palace, Liya said straight to the point: "I summoned you to the palace today because of the Japanese affairs.

After hearing what Liya said, Kong Lingzhen suddenly remembered that His Majesty seemed to have always disliked those short and stubby people, but now he actually agreed to let the short and stubby people send envoys to Wu State to study?

There must be something fishy about this!

It turns out that when Liya, the Emperor of Wu, urgently calls people to a meeting, it is usually to trick people!

After thinking for a while about how to deceive this old man, Liya said, "Wa is a barbaric country. Wu is a superior country in the Central Plains. As the saying goes, we will not refuse those who come, and we will not chase those who leave. Since Wa is willing to learn, our Wu will naturally open the door to convenience."

After saying those high-sounding words, Leah was almost moved by herself.

Look, I am willing to use my own knowledge to educate you barbarians. What kind of spirit is this?

Selflessness and benefiting others, this is the mind and bearing of a great country!

After being moved by herself, Liya continued, "As the saying goes, if you drive one sheep, you should let two sheep go. Since we have already accepted international students from Frank and Sassanid Persia, we might as well include the Japanese as well."

Kong Lingzhen understood immediately.

It turned out that in order to solve the problem of Frankish and Sassanid Persian students, their poor tribe opened a separate school in Chang'an to specifically teach those students from the barbaric countries.

The first subject taught in this school is Qieyun, which is to learn pinyin. After the Qieyun part of the course is completed, the second stage of the course will begin.

For example, the Three Character Classic and the Thousand Character Classic, and later on, there are the Four Books, the Five Classics, Laozi, Zhuangzi, as well as history, governance and other subjects.

As for law, physics, chemistry, biology, history, geography, mathematics and other miscellaneous subjects, there is not a single one.

Of course, it cannot be that there is not even a little bit of it, because as long as these people perform well, they will have the opportunity to learn some relatively simple military books, which will involve knowledge of geography, astronomy and other aspects.

To put it bluntly, Her Majesty the Queen wants to train all the students sent by these countries into what she considers to be a bunch of bookworms!

Only at this time can their Confucianism come into play, and he didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

Chapter 189 It’s time to go to America to find crops

Without any embarrassment, Liya continued, "Also, I will ask the Five Military Commands Office to select a few military supervisors from the army and have them teach these overseas students how to be loyal to the emperor and love martial arts."

Leah's original intention was to first turn these international students into corrupt scholars, then send a group of military supervisors to brainwash them, and then select some of the well-brainwashed ones to teach them some basic war theories or the knowledge of leading troops in battle.

Just imagine, if these international students get used to staying in Wu State, would they feel that the moon is rounder in Wu State? It's just like those modern international students who go to other countries and never come back.

After they go back, they will live like savages for a while...

Tsk tsk.

Judging from my own experience, among these international students who have stayed in Wu for a long time, if there are only three or five good students among them, they can make a mess in Europe.

At this time, does Wuguo need to mediate?

Mediation requires human resources. Can you ask Wuguo to mediate without giving him some benefits?

If the Wu Kingdom chooses not to intervene, the consequence will most likely be that these international students will win.

After the foreign students who are loyal to Wu Kingdom win, the benefits that Wu Kingdom can get will probably be several times more than what it is now.

Even if not, their countries will certainly be severely damaged after the turmoil.

As for whether these foreign students would suddenly open up their Ren and Du meridians, or even harm the Wu Kingdom...

It was obvious that if she didn't teach them everything, they wouldn't stand a chance.

A few days later, Liu Ye reported a piece of news to Liya, "Your Majesty, the spies developed by the Jinyiwei in Goguryeo reported that Goguryeo seemed to have regretted its request for submission."

Leah hummed and asked, "What's going on?"
