Section 171 Falling Son (End)

"(Yan) Your Highness, I really deserve the gift you gave!" The Great Imperial Tokugawa Hidetada laughed.

Yan Changwu sent him a natural ginseng with thick arms (from the Korean Imperial Treasury), this ginseng may be a thousand years of fire, and it is about to become fine, this kind of gift is hard to find, representing the deep friendship of the Southeast Mansion to the Shogunate!

"Hey, Your Highness, your trade with us is booming, there are many related photos, some gifts, not worth mentioning!"

The two of them met on Sarushima Island, an uninhabited island that is surrounded by Edo Bay and is the only natural island in Edo Bay.

They were all superior beings, and they set up curtains on the beach to protect them from the wind, laid floor mats, and set up fire plates, so that they were not afraid of the cold sea breeze.

Another ginseng chicken wine, yes, there is no cold.

Picking up the wine glass, Tokugawa Hidetada was very satisfied with the bilateral relationship, and it turned out that His Royal Highness Yan did what he said, strictly followed the agreement between the two parties, bought and sold fairly, strictly restrained his own family, and respected the shogunate very much.

What is rare is that its detachment in the Ryukyus (led by Gan Hui) assisted the shogunate's sailors and vigorously cracked down on unscrupulous merchants, sinking four smuggling ships, capturing twelve, and sending the main culprits to the Edo shogunate for disposal.

Isn't this international friendship or what? Therefore, Yan Dashao became an old friend of the Japanese people.

The shogunate's ships were backward and could not catch the fast smugglers, but the cruisers of the southeastern province were so light that no one could escape if they caught them. (Gan Hui is very active, one can train the troops, and the other can share the profits if he captures)

Most of the smugglers came from Satsuma, Choshu, Hizen, and Tosa, who were vassals of the shogunate, and when the shogunate obtained human and material evidence, they immediately beat them, punished the feudal lords, severely reprimanded them, fined them, and cut their shitaka (i.e., e.g., e.g. shiroku).

Another part of the policy of seclusion was to "suppress the feudal domain" and weaken the strength of the vassals, and the southeastern province provided the shogunate with a sharp weapon to attack.

The feudal lords hated the southeastern province to the core, but the shogunate praised it greatly, and turned a blind eye to the fact that the southeastern fleet had sunk its own ships and captured the Japanese to mine in Taiwan.

The families of those Japanese people went to the shogunate to complain, asking the shogunate to intervene and ask them to come back, and they were all driven out!

"For our friendship!" Tokugawa Hidetada raised his glass in congratulations.

"For our friendship!" Yan Changwu and the Japanese people responded, and the two clinked glasses and dried them up.

Then it was his turn to say, "For everyone's health!" ”

"For everyone's health!" Received an enthusiastic response from Tokugawa Hidetada.

Honestly, I hope that Yan Dashao is healthy!

Tokugawa Hidetada said: "At first, everyone had doubts about the agreement with you, but I didn't expect His Royal Highness Yan to be really a promise, never a lie, there is a gentleman's style, I salute you!" ”

Yan Changwu drank it and said secretly: "It's good to lock the country, the shogunate is closed to the country, and even if you want to support it greatly!" ”

Help the Japanese to lock the country, without hesitation!

He was more desperate than the shogunate itself to continue to exist, to suppress the feudal domains, and to maintain a semblance of peace, so that the undercurrents surging throughout Japan could be suppressed by the shogunate.

There are disputes everywhere, and there are many forces in the shogunate, so they want to make trouble, for example, they want to send Japanese pirates to the southeast to plunder the wealth of the Ming Kingdom, how can this be? Yan Changwu resolutely supported the shogunate to suppress them!

The shogunate is safe, and the southeast province can smoothly earn silver, and put more power into the South Seas and the mainland instead of the East Ocean, and the situation in the southeast is stable, which is a cheap thing for two families.

As the saying goes, there is no speculation in more than half a sentence, and there are thousands of glasses of wine every time, Yan Changwu has a feeling of dreaming, he actually talks with the Japanese people very happily, and toasts frequently.

Tokugawa Hidetada also invited him to watch a geisha's performance, which is the kind of woman who has powdered her face like a layer of flour and has a bloody mouth, wearing bloated clothes and shaking a fan in late autumn, and she is scratching her posture in various poses, twisting and twisting like Sadako crawling out in the middle of the night.

Very heavy taste, ordinary young people can't appreciate this kind of Japanese dance, but Yan Changwu is a man of two generations, a politician with a graceful demeanor, even if he is unhappy, he hides his emotions deeply, and puts on a look of dedicated appreciation, so that Tokugawa Hidetada almost wants to give him a geisha, as long as he nods, he will give it away!

"Good word!"

Tokugawa Hidetada showed off Chinese calligraphy again, which made Yan Dashao's face a little hot, of course, with his thick skin as a city wall, others couldn't see it. (His handwriting level is not as good as that old man)

The word sent by His Royal Highness is the word "An", vigorous and powerful, deep calligraphy Samadhi, he said to Yan Changwu: "I hope the north of your country can be safe!" Settle down as soon as possible and share peace! ”

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern!" Yan Changwu took the word.

Tokugawa Hidetada was by no means a ruler who was closed to the news, and his tentacles stretched out to the periphery, and he was still clear about the affairs of the mainland.

Secretly scolding the old fox, Yan Changwu said generously: "My Daming family affairs made His Highness laugh!" ”

What surprised Yan Changwu slightly, Tokugawa Hidetada was actually a little indignant, showing strong hostility towards Houjin, and regarded Houjin as a barbarian.

Thinking about it, I also understand that after all, the Wa Kingdom was influenced by Han culture, and fixed the Houjin as "Yi" according to the Huayi standard, and disdained the Houjin with extreme disdain.

Therefore, Tokugawa Hidetada made a proposal, so that Yan Changwu could only hehe, and had to come to "Wang Gu left and right to talk about it".

Tokugawa Hidetada is willing to borrow Oriental soldiers to help Yan Changwu Heiyu (Houjin)! And willing to borrow silver!

He took the initiative to propose: "China and Japan are one, they are all practicing Confucian culture, talking about the distinction between Huayi and Yi, and now the north is attacking the north of the Ming Dynasty, slaughtering the people, and the society is uneasy, I feel the same way!" ”

"I, the Edo Shogunate, would like to lend 30,000 troops to His Highness to help His Highness, and borrow another million taels of silver for military expenses!" He said it in the name of Edo, apparently there was an internal consensus.

However, he specifically pointed out that the Oriental soldiers were only given to Yan Changwu to command, and the silver was only given to Yan Changwu, and the use of the shogunate did not matter, they believed that Yan Changwu was a person, and when the battle was over, the Oriental soldiers retreated immediately, and it didn't matter if the silver was not returned!

If it's not enough, you can add troops and silver!

There was a peculiar scene at the table, one was pushing and didn't want to borrow, and the other thought he was afraid of losing face, so he gave it to him!

Take it! Take it, you're welcome!

Yan Changwu wiped his sweat lightly, and said to himself: "Hey, sometimes it's troublesome to be too handsome!" ”

Think about the beauty of the scene when you took the Oriental soldiers to fight Houjin......

……

The old man next door said he wanted to lend me money, lent me soldiers, and said he wanted to marry his daughter to me.

People say, what should I do?
