The Japanese nation has a persistent spirit that borders on perversion, and at best it is called the spirit of craftsmanship, and at worst it is called the tip of the horns.

A nation with this kind of character is easy to go to the extreme of a big victory or a big defeat, and Japan's Meiji Restoration made him the number one power in Asia, and World War II poured all its money into selling iron and did not admit defeat, and finally attracted two nuclear bombs, which was actually caused by this character.

Kirigakure is a typical example of this kind of character, and she feels that she should be loyal to the Tokugawa shogunate, so she is a loyal servant of the shogunate for eternity. She thinks that Xiao Lotian is an enemy of Japan, so she will spend her life pestering Xiao Lotian like a poison that eats bones, and finds out all his secrets.

Every officer around Xiao Letian, every shopkeeper of Lotte Bank, and even every woman in Xiao Lotian, the fog ghost has a secret file, until finally the fog ghost even reported a shocking big secret to Tokugawa Keiki.

"General, the current emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom, the ten-year-old Emperor Tongzhi has recognized Xiao Letian as his teacher and followed Xiao Letian to study the world...... Based on my judgment of Xiao Letian, his first stop must be Japan, and the emperor of the Qing Kingdom is very likely to come to Japan!"

"Nani?" Tokugawa Keiki got up from the tatami mat and knocked over the dwarf in front of him, "The emperor of the Qing Kingdom will come to Japan?

The little ghost nodded very affirmatively and said, "Yes, since Xiao Letian chose Emperor Tongzhi as his apprentice, then his purpose is obvious, he wants to be the emperor, and he wants to use invisible power to control the Qing Dynasty...... Since he wants to cultivate a Western monarch, he will not let go of the living case of the great changes in Japan, and I am sure that the Tongzhi Emperor will come......"

The assurances of the little imp made the general dumbfounded, there has been no precedent for the Central Plains emperor to land on the island since there are historical records in Japan, and not even a high-ranking official has ever landed on the island of Japan.

Don't look at the Japanese themselves shouting the emperor very arrogantly, don't look at Toyotomi Hideyoshi cutting off the canonization system of the Central Plains Dynasty, but in the hearts of the Japanese people now, the influence of the Central Plains Dynasty is still quite large, and the emperor can only honestly bow his head to the Emperor of the Central Plains.

Only when there was a bloody battle in the First Sino-Japanese War 30 years later did Japan's national self-esteem rise, and only then would the Japanese psychologically defeat the Central Plains nation, and the arrogance of a great power would be condensed little by little.

Japan is nothing now!

Tokugawa Yoshiki was spinning around like a trapped beast in the castle tower, and he kept muttering to himself, "What should I do, what should I do, the Japanese archipelago is already in chaos, why is there a variable......

The little ghost knelt on the ground and said coldly, "It's easy to do, kill Xiao Lotian and rob Emperor Tongzhi, as long as Emperor Tongzhi becomes a guest in Edo City, we can deter opponents, as long as Emperor Tongzhi issues a statement in our favor, the people of Japan will support us, and the crisis of the shogunate will naturally be solved......"

"Can we do it? Can we really do it?" asked Tokugawa Yoshiki.

"Shogun, how can you know if you don't try?

"That's right, you should try, how can you know if you don't try, very good from today onwards, you are the leader of the Shinsengumi, all the ninjas of the Tokugawa family are commanded by you, go and do it, as long as you can get the Tokugawa family through the current crisis, you are a great hero of Japan, and I can give you the identity of a daimyo!"

"Hai ......" the little ghost of the fog was already in tears when she knelt on the tatami mat, she never thought that the general would actually come up with such a rich reward, can a ninja really become a daimyo?

When the Kiji Hidden Imp left the castle tower, she felt as if she was stepping on cotton, and her whole body was about to float. The unrealistic dream ideal smashed in front of him at once, making her collide with the nobles without knowing it.

"Bold, dare not kneel when you see your wife!" An angry reprimand woke up the foggy imp, and when she saw the woman in front of her, the misty imp suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

The person who came is none other than the famous Atsuhime in Japanese history, the wife of the main house of the 13th generation of the shogun Tokugawa Ieding, this woman from the Shimazu family, with the unique tenacious fighting spirit of Kyushu Island, her two eyes can always give people a sense of oppression as if she could talk.

"Forget it, the foggy imp has been lurking in Qingguo for this time, and he may still be a little unaccustomed to returning to China, don't be too demanding......" While speaking, Atsuhime actually helped up the foggy imp with her own hands.

"Oh, what a beauty, I don't know who will be blessed to marry you in the future...... If you don't dislike it, I would welcome you when you have time to sit in Daori......"

The whole person of the foggy imp floated up, she didn't expect happiness to be so close to herself, the general affirmed her own merits, and now even the commander of the Great Ao, Tianzhang Academy, has shown favor to herself.

The so-called Great Ao is the harem of the Qing Dynasty, Atsuhime is the wife of the 13th generation of the Zhengyi General, and Tokugawa Keiki is the 15th generation of the Zhengyi General, the generation is two generations apart, this is no longer the identity of the Queen Mother, this should be called the Queen Mother.

Atsuhime is a legendary woman in modern Japanese history, who was able to open the gates of Edo Castle without bloodshed and reconcile with the emperor's forces, how could such a woman have no rights, she had many supporters in the shogunate, and more importantly, her maiden Shimazu family is now getting stronger and stronger, which makes people dare not underestimate her.

Atsuhime made a special trip to block the fog imp today, and the shrewd woman knew that the fog imp would soon be reused, a ninja who could kill the ancestors of the guards in the Qing Dynasty, and a fine work that clearly knew Xiao Letian's lineage, and the shogunate would definitely reuse it.

Atsuhime comforted the little ghost of the fog with a few words and walked away, she knew the heart of a woman, if she took out all the benefits at once, it would make the other party despise her, and only a little temptation was the best way to buy people's hearts.

The misty imp left Edo City, and the process of her gathering the Shinsengumi and the ninja army was very smooth, an elite who could assassinate the ancestor of the Qing Kingdom, and also had a trick with the East China Sea Xiao Cheng was very easy to get the admiration of his subordinates, and the misty imp was in power for a while.

Just as the shogunate began to prepare for the attack of the Shogunate faction, Xiao Lotian's flagship Roma finally saw the port of Kagoshima and the castle tower of the Shimazu family.

This time, Xiao Lotian came to Japan in secret, and there were no officials of the Shimazu family on the dock to greet them, and the coolies who worked only found a group of Chinese dressed in Western-style clothes walking down from the tall warship and hurrying into the Shimazu family's inn.

When Xiao Lotian took off his shoes and walked up to the tatami mat in the main hall, he found that a group of high-ranking Japanese officials had already been waiting here.

"Wait for the ministers of the lower kingdom, meet the prime minister of the kingdom!" This group of Japanese officials is really shameless, and directly identifies Ryukyu as the kingdom, perhaps they think that Xiao Letian's influence has reached the standard of the prime minister of the Qing Dynasty.

Xiao Letian sat cross-legged in the top position, looking at the bald head in front of him, and his heart was secretly refreshed, "Lao Tzu spent hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to arm you, and it is only natural to kowtow to me now......"

For a long time, Xiao Le Tiancai coughed and said, "Let's be even, I'm not your superior, what are you doing with so many courtesies......"

After everyone was flattened, Xiao Lotian was startled when he saw it, and it was none other than the head of the Shimazu family, Shimazu Tadayoshi, and his father Shimazu Hisamitsu, and then Kayama Kurigen and Takenaka Inoue were also sitting in danger waiting for Xiao Letian's instructions.

There are also Sakamoto Ryoma, Takasugi Shinsaku, Yama Prefecture Aritomo and other important ministers of the downfall forces, and there are more than 20 people crowded in a hall.

Most of the people here Xiao Lotian have never seen it, but the torture hall has already established a secret file for these people, and there are a lot of photos and so on, Xiao Letian can call out their names one by one.

"Master of the Shimazu family, I never thought that you would come to greet me in person, you are the master here, and you should sit on the throne!"

Where did Shimazu Tadayi dare to steal the limelight from Xiao Letian, he hurriedly bent down and trembled and said, "The lord of the upper kingdom is the master, how dare the ministers of the lower state make a mistake, please don't torture me and ......"

"Prime Minister Xiao of the East China Sea raised his power over Europa, defeated the invincible French and Austrians, and the news came to the entire Japanese archipelago shocked, we couldn't believe it before, and finally asked the foreigners of several countries to finally determine the news......"

"Capital crime, capital crime, we actually doubted the results of the Prime Minister, this is really our shame, please punish the Prime Minister!"

Xiao Letian sighed in his heart when he heard this, he was still the original Japanese, this nation admired violence, and knew that he bowed to power, if he didn't have the feat of expedition to Europe, I'm afraid they wouldn't be so convinced.

"It's a fluke, it's a fluke, I didn't expect to win the Europa battle so easily, you must not kill it, let's talk about your affairs, what's the big deal with inviting me over in such a hurry?"

Sakamoto Ryoma watched Xiao Letian act, and instead of poking it, he got up and introduced several important ministers to Xiao Letian: "The prime minister doesn't have to be too humble, how can he do it without strength after returning from a big victory in Europe? Not to mention the battle between the Ryukyus and the French Expeditionary Force, the new army's combat effectiveness is so strong that we can all see it......"

"What's more, you used a weak division of two or three thousand people to capture the imperial capital of the Great Qing Kingdom, what is this not your strength? Your exploits are as dazzling as the sun at noon, we are just the light of fireflies, how dare you show off in front of the prime minister!"

After a few polite words, Ryoma Sakamoto stretched out his hand and introduced, "This is the founder of the Choshu Domain, Takasugi Shinsaku, this is the hero of the Battle of Choshu, and the Yamaprefecture Aritomo ......"
