Chapter 426: The Emperor of the Back Garden
As soon as these people entered, Kuang Ye knew that he had to go, and he originally wanted to see if there was any other way to solve the problem. But looking at Yang Chendong's attitude and his current physical condition, he knew that there was no point in saying anything more.
Kuang Ye left, just like when he came, and Hu Mang sent him out of the barracks. Yang Chendong in the military tent here also stopped coughing, then shook his head and said: "This pretending to be sick is also hard work, I hope to be able to deceive this old guy." ”
At these words, Hu Yan and Xue Niangzi both laughed. This is their husband, a little scary when he gets serious, and sometimes he is very cute.
What Yang Chendong did was not only to deceive Kuang Ye, but also to take the opportunity to put forward his own requirements. In fact, Kuang Ye was indeed deceived.
Yang Chendong's makeup skills are too good, and it can also be said that the things in the warehouse are too good, so good that they are not something that can be possessed in this era. This is what fools everyone.
"Teacher, how is the condition of Zhong Dangong?" On the way back to the city, Guan Ying asked in a low voice. When he saw Kuang Ye's ugly face after leaving the camp, he was a little apprehensive. After all, a while ago, he was not respectful to Yang Chendong, and even thought about calculating others for a while. His own approach is likely to ruin the teacher's plan, and he is also a little worried about this.
"It's really sick." Kuang Ye replied in a deep voice, and Yang Chendong seemed to be terminally ill in his mind.
"That's... I don't know if I can still lead the troops to fight? Guan Ying continued to whisper, this is the focus of his concern. He had already received the news that while stabilizing the current results, the Minwang family had begun to deploy troops and were preparing to expand the results of the war, and Guangdong, as one of the occupied areas, their existence was obviously intolerable. In other words, even if they don't take the initiative to attack, it won't be long before King Min will draw his hand to deal with him.
"Leading the troops into battle?" Kuang Ye shook his head, "Who knows? However, if you want him to fight, you must first agree to one of his conditions, that is, to be a king like Mu Bin, the king of Xiping. Seeing that there was no one else beside him, Kuang Ye also whispered this.
"What, Feng Wang!" Guan Ying almost didn't hold back his voice and shouted out this sentence. But then he hurriedly closed his mouth, but he could still see from his face that he was also scared this time.
Who is Mu Bin? That is after the Mu family, generations of loyalty. It was also the light of pacifying Yunnan this time that he was forced to be crowned king. But now it seems that the effect is not very great, because the failure of Dong Xing, a stupid teammate, has made it impossible for him to exert his full strength.
But in any case, Mu Bin after the king was also nailed to the back of King Min like a nail, so that they could not attack Nanjing with all their strength.
Who is Yang Chendong? Although he is also the queen of the Yang family, he can be regarded as a loyal and good man, but he is just the leader of the mercenary army who saved him by chance. There is no real power in his hands, so why should he be crowned king?
Of course, it's a bit of an exaggeration to say why. After all, Yang Chendong saved Yingzong's life, and repelled the invasion of Warat on behalf of Zong, and now he has the merit of quelling the rebellion in Guangdong, which is also a great achievement. But because of this, he can't be crowned king at will, all because he is too powerful. It's so powerful that it's a little scary, it's not like Mu Bin, the influence of power is only in Yunnan, and out of there, he's nothing.
It is precisely because of Yang Chendong's power that once he is crowned king with a different surname, it is unpredictable what kind of consequences will be caused.
Guan Ying thought of this, so he didn't dare to say anything more. And these are also in Kuang Ye's eyes, and I can't help but sigh in my heart, with a different surname as the king, to say that there are some people in the Ming Dynasty, such as Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan, Chang Yuchun, the king of Kaiping, Li Wenzhong, the king of Qiyang, Deng Yu, the king of Ninghe, Tang He, the king of Donou, the king of Qianning, Muying, and now the king of Xiping.
But except for the last one, everyone else was posthumously crowned king. Yang Chendong is a big living person.
When he thought of the living, he couldn't help but think of Yang Chendong's weak appearance, and Kuang Zhi thought in his heart, maybe this person would not live long, so it didn't seem to be unrealistic to be crowned king.
Kuang Ye's heart first became hesitant, and when he decided that Yang Chendong was already very ill, the idea of becoming a king came into being. Of course, he also knew that such a major event was not something he could say a word for, and he still needed to ask the emperor for instructions. In this way, after yesterday's 800-mile expedited sent, another urgent secret letter was sent out after he returned to the study of the Gaozhou Mansion.
......
Heiankyo, the capital of Japan.
The Imperial City of Japan, also known as the Ouchiri Kyoto Imperial Palace, is the seat of the city's supreme power and the political, cultural and economic center of the country.
As the 102nd emperor of the Japanese imperial family, Hikohito is known as the Emperor of the Back Garden.
Such a title seems to be obvious in Japan. People here are also accustomed to the name of a person, such as Yamashita, Eguchi, Takahashi, and so on.
The Emperor of Japan was originally the most noble existence in the country, and in fact, it was true to the outside world, and many orders were issued and issued by the Emperor of the Back Garden. But in fact, Yanren is more of a puppet-like existence. At least in some things, he has to look at other people's faces and listen to other people's opinions before making a final decision.
As a descendant of the imperial family, Hikohito certainly didn't want to insult the emperor's name. In private, he has been working hard to change this situation, which led to the dispatch of his favorite daughter, Princess Junko, to Daming.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty was still very powerful to the outside world, at least far from being comparable to Japan. They also need to look at this big country in the East with an attitude of looking up.
Princess Junko sent it out, and some information was continuously fed back through various channels. But more are some of the things that Her Royal Highness the Princess has seen and heard in the northern capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the most mentioned of them is a young man named Yang Chendong.
The letter said that Yang Chendong was only in his early twenties, but he had been made a duke, and he had a lot of influence in the entire Ming Dynasty.
Regarding the record in this letter, Yanren naturally had a dislike for Yang Chendong. For nothing else, in his eyes, once such a person develops, he will often become a powerful minister, just like Ashikaga Yoshimasa.
It's just that regardless of whether Yanren likes Yang Chendong or not, when Xiao Lin suddenly came to the palace and brought back an important news, the Emperor of the Back Garden was finally shaken, and he also knew and understood more about the name Yang Chendong.
A secret room in the depths of the Imperial Palace, unknown to outsiders, and the people who can come here are trusted and important people by the emperor.
Kobayashi was able to appear here entirely thanks to a message he brought back, as well as a handwritten letter written by Princess Junko that he took out from his body.
Since Junko left Japan, she and her father have agreed on some secret words in the letters, that is, some letters do not seem to be inappropriate at all on the surface. But only the father and daughter could see the authenticity of the letter, whether it was written under coercion.
It is said that the letter brought by Kobayashi is naturally out of Junko's sincerity, and there is no falsification in the content of it, which Emperor Hikohito can see at a glance.
It was precisely because this letter was true that Emperor Hikohito was even more shaken. After reading the letter three times very carefully, he said with a serious face: "Xiao Linjun, please tell me what you saw and heard. ”
"Hello." Xiao Lin nodded in agreement, and then told the princess the first time he saw Yang Chendong, and then faced the chase and had to live in Yangjiazhuang, and then he told everything he saw in detail.
It took more than an hour for Xiao Lin to finish the matter. After that, he looked at Hikohito, who should be respected most by the Japanese people in front of him, and said: "Your Majesty the Emperor, this Ming Loyal and Courageous Duke is the most powerful and capable young man that the minister has ever seen, and there seems to be nothing he can't solve, and there seems to be nothing he can't solve." ”
"Wait, you mean it's very powerful, how about it than the general?" Hearing this, Hikoto interjected and asked.
"It should be better than him. After all, when he was young, the general was not as powerful as he is now. Xiao Lin just hesitated for a moment, and then quickly gave an answer.
"Whoosh." Hikohito seemed to be very satisfied with this answer, and nodded incessantly. "By the way, tell me about the artillery."
It's no wonder that there is such a question, and a cannon is priced at 10 million taels of silver. What money does this mean, Hikohito believes that his daughter Junko will be very clear, but she still writes so in the letter and suggests buying one, which is no wonder Hikohito will attach so much importance to it.
"This..."In front of the Emperor, Xiao Lin naturally didn't dare to hide it in the slightest, "Your Majesty the Emperor, the minister has never seen the appearance of the artillery when it is fired, but he has only seen the terrible consequences caused by the battle. ”
"Terrible consequences?"
"Yes, that's really a lack of grass, as if the heavens are angry...", he described the scene after seeing the shelling of Heijing Street as much as possible. And these words were heard in the ears of Emperor Hikohito, but they made his expression change again and again.
In his mind, he seemed to have sketched a very shocking picture, and this picture was soon installed in the current Shogun's Palace, as if Ashikaga Yoshimasa could be killed with a single shot, and he regained the supreme power in Japan.
"I'll raise the silver taels, and I'll leave the contact with the mercenaries to you, don't let me down." Finally, Yan Ren made up his final mind, although 10 million taels was already a big burden for him, but in order to regain control of the country, he still agreed without hesitation.
"Hello." Xiao Lin also nodded excitedly. Such a big responsibility fell on his shoulders, and it is conceivable that if he succeeds, he will definitely be reused, and at that time he may also stand at the top of the Japanese country.
