Text Volume 2 Dawn Morning_Chapter 13 Persecution

With the support of a North Korean servant, Li Yuanyi trembled and walked up to the second floor. As soon as he bypassed the screen at the entrance of the staircase, he saw a thin and capable middle-aged man standing on the east side of the upper seat waiting for him.

Looking at the Ming official mansion worn by this middle-aged man, Li Yuanyi realized that this Ming official should be the angel king Huazhen.

He waved his hand to break free from the support of the servants, walked slowly to the west of Wang Huazhen, and then saluted Wang Huazhen according to the etiquette system.

Seeing that Li Yuanyi meticulously performed the full salute to himself in accordance with the etiquette, Wang Huazhen's originally expressionless face eased, and after returning the salute, he invited Li Yuanyi to sit down and talk.

Walking and saluting again, which made Li Yuanyi's forehead start to sweat. After sitting down. He didn't rush to speak, but took out a handkerchief from his bosom to wipe the sweat on his forehead, he used this action to soothe his breathing, and took the opportunity to observe Wang Huazhen's reaction.

Li Yuanyi nervously recalled in his mind the relevant information about the Ming official in front of him. North Korea's Ming Dynasty was originally far away from mountains and rivers, and transportation was inconvenient, and after the Jin Dynasty turned against the Ming Dynasty, it cut off relatively safe land passages.

As a result, the two sides fell into a serious lag in each other's intelligence, and the situation only improved slightly with the advent of sea routes.

For Wang Huazhen, Li Yuanyi only had a few information in his hands, a disciple of Ye Xianggao, the leader of the Donglin Party, Guangning lost the person in charge of Quanliao in a fiasco, and was then imprisoned by the emperor for capital crimes.

Such a person, with Li Yuanyi's understanding of the politics of the Ming Kingdom, should never be resurrected, because no one can afford to lose Liaodong.

Such a person was able to appear in front of him and return to the front line in Liaodong. It only proves that the politics of the Ming dynasty have changed dramatically, and he does not know whether this change is good or bad for North Korea.

Li Yuanyi carefully folded the handkerchief and put it in his sleeve pocket, and then said to Wang Huazhen heavily: "After the news of the death of the first emperor came, the whole country was grieving, and His Royal Highness immediately sent an incense envoy to Beijing to ask the first emperor to hang him. I wonder what the angel is doing here? ”

Li Yuanyi mentioned the deceased Xizong, and Wang Huazhen had to get up and remember the deeds of the previous emperor.

When he sat down again, he found that the rhythm of the conversation was about to be controlled by Li Yuanyi. Wang Huazhen immediately realized that Li Yuanyi would definitely talk about the deep suzerain-vassal relationship between the Ming and Korea, and then introduce the current Korean king's deferential attitude towards the Ming Dynasty, so as to block the Ming Dynasty's criticism of Korea.

Wang Huazhen immediately interrupted Li Yuanyi's words and said: "I came to North Korea for three things. Whether the suzerain-vassal relationship between the Ming Dynasty and the DPRK for more than 200 years can continue in the future will depend on the DPRK's attitude towards these three things.

Before the envoy left, His Majesty had explained a few words to the envoy. Now that I am meeting with the leader in private, I might as well say it to the leader of the ceremony, I wonder if the leader is willing to listen to it? ”

Li Yuanyi, who was interrupted from speaking, couldn't help but feel a little uneasy in his heart, but he still stood up and said with a calm face: "Ministers of the lower state, please listen to the hadith." ”

In the face of this short and polite North Korean leader, Wang Huazhen was also forced to get up and solemnly relay Chongzhen's words.

“… 1. What is the intention of the DPRK to conclude a brotherly alliance with Kion-nu? Do you want to break away from Huaxia and enter Yidi?

Second, the king of Joseon, Li Hui, lost his morality during his reign, so that the domestic public resentment was boiling, and he should have avoided the throne and waited for the crime. But the Korean subjects did not declare to the Emperor of the Great Tomorrow, waiting for the ruling of the Ming Emperor, but instead used swords and soldiers to force the palace, where is Lunchang?

3. Guanghaijun Li Hui has sons and younger brothers, and Ayayangjun Li Ju is neither eldest nor younger, and he is a nephew and uncle, what is the etiquette? ”

Li Yuanyi, whose expression had not changed, suddenly changed his face. If these words are disseminated, there will be chaos in North Korea in no time.

Although the nobles of the two classes hated Guanghaijun, they also had no good impression of Li Liang, who had signed a brotherly alliance with the Hu people.

Emperor Seonjo had many heirs, and there were still six great monarchs alive in addition to Gwanghae-kun, and Ayayang-jun Yi Liang was able to ascend the Joseon throne because of the Westerners' Party, which had the power to hold the military, and on the other hand, because of the support of the Nanren Party, which did not want the Korean turmoil to continue.

But even so, Li Liang, who ascended to the throne, was still criticized a lot, and even Li Shi, the general who originally supported him, openly supported Li Jin, the younger brother of Gwanghaejun, Xing'an Jun, to rebel.

After quelling Li Shi's rebellion, Li Liang and the Westerners Party successively sent envoys to the Ming Kingdom to beg him to be canonized as the king of Joseon, and finally got the canonization of the Apocalypse last year, which calmed down the criticism in Korea about Li Liang's succession to the throne.

But now that the newly enthroned Emperor Ming directly denied this legitimacy, Li Liang's throne is obviously unable to sit down, and the remaining six monarchs will also fight for blood, and North Korea, which has just been robbed by Jiannu, will soon fall into a more brutal civil war.

Li Yuanyi's voice was a little hoarse and said, "Does the Son of Heaven want to kill me?" ”

"The leader of the council is heavy." Wang Huazhen said expressionlessly.

Li Yuanyi stared at Wang Huazhen with his eyes and said: "As long as the angel spreads these words, my North Korea will be a bloody storm in an instant, isn't it that the Son of Heaven wants to kill my North Korea?" ”

Wang Huazhen lowered her head and blew the tea foam in the tea cup, and said casually: "That's why I invited Lingyizheng to meet in private, so that I can give you a preparation." ”

Li Yuanyi said with some excitement: "North Korea is small and the people are weak, when the Houjin army attacked our country, Mao Shuai sat on the poor island and sat idly by, and our North Korea was isolated and helpless, so we had to conclude an alliance with the Houjin."

But even so, when Houjin demanded that our country be the next year, the whole state was grateful for the grace of the kingdom and refused to obey, and did not accept this article. Therefore, although the DPRK concluded an alliance with Houjin, it was only a compromise to wait for the future.

Guanghaijun killed his brother and imprisoned his mother, and his evil deeds were obvious. And it poisoned the scholars in the country, and even the people's resentment boiled, so that the righteous people rose up to occupy the royal capital. For the sake of the people, we have no choice but to obey the will of the people and depose his throne.

Ayayang-kun is smart and filial, and is deeply loved by Concubine Renmu, and it is because of Concubine Renmu that Ayayang-kun is designated to take over the throne. Concubine Renmu Xuanzu's step-room, this is exactly what the elders give, and they dare not resign.

I also ask the angel to inform the Son of Heaven of the truth of our state, to correct the name of our state, and not to let the Son of Heaven be confused by rumors. ”

Wang Huazhen put the teacup in his hand on the table next to him, and he said to Li Yuanyi with a smile: "What the leader said is different from what the envoy has heard. ”

Li Yuanyi suddenly said in a deep voice: "Who is spreading rumors in front of the angels, and the old man is willing to confront him in front of the angels." ”

Wang Huazhen leaned forward slightly towards Li Yuanyi, lowered his voice slightly and said, "Guanghaijun." ”

"What?"

"I mean, what Gwanghae-kun said is completely different from what the leader said?"

Li Yuanyi felt a burst of blackness in front of his eyes, and the gentle smile on Wang Huazhen's face was full of malice in his eyes.

He tried his best to suppress the panic in his heart, and asked as calmly as possible: "What the angel said, the old man didn't understand. ”

Wang Huazhen relaxed her body and leaned back, and then said lightly: "I heard that there is an ancient temple on the island, and yesterday I was interested in taking advantage of the night to swim.

Unexpectedly, he took a fork in the road for a while, and inadvertently broke into Gwanghae-kun's apartment, and this is something that I know that we should know, but we don't know.

I also believe that my Emperor Ming will be interested in these matters. For example, the cause of death of Wang Shizi, the cause of death of Princess Liu, and so on. ”

Li Yuanyi grabbed the handrail tightly with both hands, for fear that he would not be able to support him and fall, he opened his mouth several times without making a sound, and finally sighed and said: "Since the angel is willing to tell the old man in advance that these are, there must always be a solution, right?" ”

Wang Huazhen didn't answer, just clapped her hands, and soon an attendant walked out of the inner room holding a tray.

Wang Huazhen pointed to the tray on the table and said, "There are two wills here, you can take a look at them first, and then tell me what you think." ”

Li Yuanyi looked at Wang Huazhen, who was smiling, and then looked at the two rolls of yellow silk wrapped in the holy decree on the tray.

He only hesitated, then stood up. First, he respectfully bowed to the holy decree, and then took the scroll of the holy decree on the right and looked at it.

This volume of the decree praises the deferential attitude of Joseon towards the Ming Dynasty for more than 200 years, and praises the Joseon king Yi Ju, who did not rebel with the Ming under the threat of force from the Later Jin, and recognized that the alliance between the DPRK and the Later Jin was an expedient measure, followed by some of the Ming Dynasty's rewards for the DPRK, mostly books.

After reading this volume of holy decrees, Li Yuanyi didn't feel so relaxed, and his face became more solemn. He respectfully put the decree back, and after saluting again, he picked up another scroll of the decree.

As soon as he opened a paragraph of this volume, Li Yuanyi's hands began to tremble after reading a few lines. He slammed the holy decree shut, held it in his palm and said sadly: "The Korean affairs are as bright as a father, how can the son of the great tomorrow treat our country so harshly, isn't he afraid of making the people of the world cold?" ”

Wang Huazhen got up and walked to Li Yuanyi's side, carefully took the holy decree from his hand, put it back on the tray, and let the attendants who were waiting on the side put it back into the inner room.

Only then did he say solemnly to Li Yuanyi: "Letting Guanghaijun reinstate is just a matter of purifying the source, how can it be regarded as harsh treatment?" ”

"Now that the name of our state has been decided, if the Son of Heaven issues an edict to reinstate Gwanghaejun, wouldn't it make our state raise swords again? The people of North Korea are also the people under the rule of the Son of Heaven, and the Son of Heaven acts like this, how can the people of North Korea be innocent? ”

Wang Huazhen avoided answering and said: "If the king of Joseon is really loyal to the Ming Dynasty, will he use his sword to fight against the edict of the Son of Heaven?" ”

Li Yuanyi was suddenly choked and speechless, since the Renjin War, North Korea has experienced too many wars.

If there is a civil war because of the Gwanghae-kun affair, although he does not know whether the edict of the Great Emperor can be realized, but without the legitimate name of the Great Emperor to canonize the Korean royal family, the Lee family of Korea will definitely perish.

After Li Yuanyi was Taizong, he absolutely could not allow the Li dynasty to perish in his hands. Whether it is Guanghaijun or Ayayangjun, it is just the Li family's infighting, no matter who comes to power, the ancestral tomb can still be preserved.

However, if the civil war leads to the accession of other families to the throne, the temple and people of the Yi clan will be wiped out, such as the Goryeo of the Wang family, which was replaced by the Lee dynasty.
