Chapter 672: Zhang Chi has a way

After sending Li Hui away, Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin set up a chessboard and played a game, as if they forgot that Li Hui was still waiting in the reception hall. Eight?? One? Chinese net =≠≈.≈8=1≠Z=≥.≥COM

Li Liang is now restless and irritable, he doesn't know what Li Hongyu thinks of last night's coup, if Li Hongyu does not support him, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Before you know it, night falls.

"It's been a day since Li Liang was dried, and we can go and meet him now." After playing a game of chess with Zhao Xin, Li Hongyu stretched lazily and said to Zhao Xin with a smile that Li Liang's spirit must be highly tense now, and he is sleepy and hungry.

Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin were able to sleep last night, while Li Ju just took a nap, but now he has a lot of worries about how to sleep, and he has been holding on, his eyes are a little dark, and there are a lot of bloodshots in his eyes.

"Two adults." When Li Liang saw Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin enter the door, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly rushed forward to salute, as long as Li Hongyu was willing to see him, then it would be good news.

"Ayayo-kun, are you guilty?" Li Hongyu looked at Li Liang expressionlessly, and asked coldly.

"The lower official is guilty, and he should not be cut off after obtaining the evidence of the crime of colluding with the barbarians with His Royal Highness, but His Royal Highness wants to murder the Ming Mission, and the lower official is also forced to do so, and I hope that the Lord will find out."

Hearing this, Li Liang hurriedly knelt on the ground, holding a letter in both hands and said, "This is the letter of His Royal Highness the Lord and Jiannu's fornication, and there is a big seal of His Royal Highness the Lord on it, please look at it two adults." ”

"Ayayo-kun, do you think you can get away with just a letter?"

Li Hongyu glanced at the letter, then looked at Li Ju with a sneer and said, "Are you sure you want to let the envoy see this letter that you forged?" ”

"Ben Envoy?"

Li Liang was slightly stunned when he heard this, a puzzled look appeared on his face, and he looked at Li Hongyu in astonishment, knowing that only the chief envoy of the Ming Mission could call himself "this envoy", and if the rest of the people dared to claim it, it would be a big crime.

Moreover, Li Liang knew that Li Hongyu was the liaison officer of the Ming Mission, so he didn't know why Li Hongyu called himself the "original envoy", whether it was a slip of the tongue.

"Ayayang-kun, this is the envoy of the Ming Mission, the Ming Zuochunfang Li Scholar." At this time, Zhao Xin stretched out his hand and pointed at Li Hongyu and said in a deep voice.

"Positive...... Just? Li Liang was stunned when he heard this, and then looked at Li Hongyu with a look of disbelief, like Li Hui, he couldn't believe this matter for a while, it was too sudden.

"Ayayang-kun, the envoy admired your personality very much before, thinking that you were a rare talent in North Korea, but I never expected you to do such a rebellious thing, which is really embarrassing!"

Li Hongyu glared at Li Liang with a serious expression, and asked sharply, "Do you think that the envoy and the Ming are so easy to fool?" ”

"The envoy forgives the sins, although the lower officials have selfish intentions, but the relationship between His Royal Highness and the barbarians is ambiguous, and the civil and military officials above the court have been dissatisfied with it for a long time, and the lower officials are worried that the prince will be affected by it and get close to the barbarians, so this is the only way to do this, and there is no intention to hide the envoys."

Hearing this, cold sweat suddenly oozed from his forehead, and he hurriedly touched the ground with his head and argued loudly, "Lord Envoy, the lower officials are loyal to the Ming Dynasty, and they have no other intentions, so they dare not have the slightest disrespect, and I hope that the Lord Envoy will be aware of it." ”

Li Hongyu stared at Li Liang expressionlessly, his eyes were sharp as if he wanted to see through his inner world, which made Li Liang's cold sweat flow down his cheeks, and the atmosphere became extremely dignified.

"Ayayang-kun, you should be glad to have met this envoy and Zhao Daxue, otherwise you think that others will believe what you say?"

After a long time, when the nervous Li Liang felt a little difficult to breathe, Li Hongyu spoke, looked at him and said in a deep voice, "Get up." ”

As he spoke, Li Hongyu led Zhao Xin to the upper seat in the hall and sat down.

Li Liang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then his face was happy, and he let out a long breath in his heart, and then quickly got up, bowed down and stood in front of Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin.

At this moment, Li Yu would never have imagined that Li Hongyu's words actually had another deep meaning, and he and his descendants won Li Hongyu's support in history, and Li Hongyu's support meant that he would become the new king of Korea.

After Injo's rebellion, Nurhachi adopted a policy of wooing Korea in order to avoid a two-sided war, and repeatedly sent envoys to Korea to surrender his credentials, hoping that North Korea would break off relations with the Ming Dynasty and form an alliance with the Later Jin.

It is a pity that Li Liang was unmoved, although the Ming Dynasty did not recognize his status as king, but he still supported the Ming Dynasty against the Later Jin, for the Jin invaded Korea twice after that, known as the Ding Mao Rebellion and the Bingzi Rebellion.

When Ding Mao was in chaos, Mao Wenlong, the general of the Dongjiang River of the Ming Dynasty, attacked the Houjin army from the rear and forced the Houjin to withdraw his troops.

The combat effectiveness of the Dongjiang Army has plummeted with the death of Mao Wenlong, and the situation in the Ming Dynasty has also become very grim, many people in various places rebelled, and the Ming army was tired of coping.

As the suzerainty of North Korea, although the Ming Dynasty has complicated internal and external affairs, it still decided to send troops to save North Korea after the court discussion, but unfortunately before the Ming Dynasty rushed to the rescue from the waterway soldiers, North Korea could not resist surrendering.

Since Korea became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, it has respected Chinese culture and considered itself to be a "little China" in addition to the Ming Dynasty, but who would have thought that it would be reduced to become a vassal state of the Houjin established by a backward and ignorant mountain and forest hunting people, which was a painful thing for the monarch and the people of Korea at that time.

Moreover, the Qing Dynasty's conquest also increased the burden on Korea, and economic plunder, political oppression, and cultural differences made the anti-Qing sentiment of Siming always the mainstream of social thought throughout the Joseon Dynasty.

It is worth mentioning that when the Ming Dynasty died in the seventeenth year of Chongzhen, the Tokugawa shogunate of the Wa Kingdom mourned for a day and cried to the west.

As the most direct vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, North Korea's mourning for the death of the Ming Dynasty was even more overflowing, and the monarchs and ministers specially held worship ceremonies and wept bitterly.

Although Korea submitted to the rule of the Qing Dynasty, the Koreans were very disgusted with the Qing Dynasty and called the Qing Dynasty "Hulu", and this hostile title and attitude abound in the "Records of the Joseon Dynasty".

Moreover, the DPRK side only used the era name of the Qing Dynasty diplomatically, and still used the era name "Chongzhen" in China, so that the name "Chongzhen" was used by Korean scholars for nearly 300 years until the fall of Korea, which is really a sigh and weeping.

Of course, it is impossible for Li Yu to know what Li Hongyu knows now, and no one in this world except Li Hongyu knows how North Korea resisted Houjin, which makes Li Hongyu feel very relieved.

"Ayayang-kun, do you know why Daming wanted to build the defense line of the Yalu River?" Li Hongyu asked Li Liang to sit down in the seat next to him, waited for the next person to serve the tea, and asked after taking a sip.

"In order to make the barbarians suffer from the enemy." Li Liang's mood was much more relaxed now, and he bowed to Li Hongyu and said after hearing this.

"Wrong!"

Li Hongyu shook his head when he heard this, and said to Li Liang with a serious expression, "Jiannu is good at field warfare, the purpose of the Yalu River defense line is to defend, and our Dongjiang garrison is a horn to each other, the Dongjiang army attacks and the Korean army defends, we must ensure the safety of North Korea, so that Jiannu cannot take the next step south!" ”

"I see!"

Li Liang was stunned when he heard this, and a look of surprise appeared on his face, he thought that the Ming Dynasty was going to transfer North Korean soldiers to start a war with the Houjin, but it turned out that Li Hongyu's main purpose was to hold the Yalu River, which would be of great benefit to North Korea and prevent the Houjin army from going south.

The Dongjiang Army in Li Hongyu's mouth refers to the Ming army on Dongjiang Island, and the general army is Mao Wenlong, who was specially carried by Li Hongyu after the Battle of Salhu, and is an important military base of the Ming army in the rear of Houjin.

As early as when he was the governor of Liaodong, Li Hongyu was already secretly planning the retreat of the Ming army after the defeat of Liaodong, not only extracting a part of the elite troops to enter the customs to preserve their strength, but also using Dongjiang Island as the place where the defeated Ming army went.

Obviously, once the Ming army was defeated in Liaodong, then it must be a collapse failure, the Ming army in Liaodong relied on to resist the Jin army was Liaoyang and Shenyang two fortified cities, Liaodong Ming army stationed heavy troops here.

Once Liaoyang and Shenyang fall, then there will be no more cities in the eastern Liaodong region that can stop the pace of Houjin's advance, and the areas east of the Liaohe River will be lost.

In the face of the galloping cavalry of the Houjin army, the defeated Ming army had no chance to escape back to the area west of the Liaohe River, and the only hope was to run to the border of Korea, and Dongjiang Island was the place where Li Hongyu chose for those generals of the defeated army in Liaodong.

"Ayayang-kun, the envoy can support you to become the king of Joseon, but there is one condition that you must agree to the envoy." Li Hongyu saw Li Liang's look of sudden realization, so he said to him solemnly after a deep groan.

Now that he has said this, he will naturally not prevent Li Kun from succeeding to the throne, and the next thing is just an exchange of interests.

"Your Excellency, please speak." Li Liang's face was overjoyed when he heard this, and he hurriedly asked, don't say one condition, even if it is ten or a hundred conditions, he will agree.

"The first thing you did after you succeeded to the throne was to abolish the 'mother law', and the Ming Dynasty paid attention to human ethics, so I hope that North Korea will do the same." Li Hongyu had long known that Li Liang would agree, so he said quietly.

"Okay, the lower official agreed." Li Liang was stunned at first, he thought that Li Hongyu was going to put forward some harsh conditions, but he never expected it to be related to the "mother law", and then agreed to it.

Although there will be some resistance to abolishing the "subordinate mother law", as Li Hongyu said, the DPRK's "subordinate mother law" is contrary to the family and human ethics of the Ming Dynasty, so it should indeed be abolished, and he does not mind severely punishing anyone who dares to oppose it.

"Come on, prepare wine, I want to suppress Ayayang-kun!"

Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, and shouted loudly at the guards standing outside the door, now you can have a good time with Li Liang, if the frightened Li Liang knows that he is interested in his succession to the Korean throne from the beginning, I don't know how he will feel.
