Ma Yu and the others would not have thought that after they went back to rest, Songshan Ming was quietly taken to Li Yuntian's residence by Lin Xin.

"I've seen the prince in my humble position." After entering the room, Songshan Ming smiled and bowed to Li Yuntian, completely without his previous crampedness, and looked very calm.

"Sit down." Li Yuntian smiled slightly when he heard this, stretched out his hand and pointed to the seat next to him, his attitude seemed very cordial, different from just now.

"Thank you, Lord Wang." After getting up, Matsuyama Ming sat down in the seat next to him, leaning sideways to face Li Yuntian, his waist straight.

No one knew that Songshan Ming was Li Yuntian's secret agent in the Wa Kingdom, one of the twenty-eight secret agents directly under him, and had the highest level of secrecy.

"Who is the head brought by Ryogen Sakamoto this time?" Waiting for Songshan Ming to sit down, Li Yuntian asked quietly, did he think that Chen Guangzong, who had been operating in the Japanese Kingdom for a long time, would die so easily.

"I don't know who the head is, but the general sent someone to arrest Chen Guangzong, and after some fighting, he brought back the head."

Matsuyama Ming shook his head, and told Li Yuntian in a deep voice the origin of the human head that Sakamoto Ryogen carried, "Although that human head has been treated with lime, but after so much time, his face has been deformed, and it is difficult to find out his true identity." ”

Li Yuntian couldn't help but show a sneer at the corner of his mouth when he heard this, how could he not know Ashikaga Yoshihito's intention to do this, it was just to give Daming an explanation.

To be honest, almost no one in the Ming Dynasty knows Chen Guangzong now, and God knows what Chen Guangzong looks like now, so even if he uses another human head to pretend to be Chen Guangzong, no one knows.

"How do Yamana Mochitomi and Hosokawa Katsumoto view the matter of Chen Guangzong." Then, Li Yuntian pondered for a while, raised his head and asked Songshan Ming.

"Yamana Chitoyo advocates exterminating Chen Guangzong's forces and giving an explanation to the Ming Dynasty, while Hosokawa Katsumoto has a lot of protection, thinking that the blame lies with Chen Guangzong, and it is enough to kill Chen Guangzong." Hearing this, Matsuyama replied methodically that as the two most powerful people in the Wa Kingdom, the attitude of Yamana Chitoyo and Hosokawa Katsumoto towards the affairs of the Wa Kingdom was very important.

Because Hosokawa Katsumoto's power is a few points stronger than Yamana Chitoyo, and Ashikaga Yoshihito doesn't want to make things too stiff, after all, Chen Guangzong is now the daimyo of the Wa Kingdom, so he listened to Yamana Chitoyo's advice and asked Yamana Chitoyo to send someone to exterminate Chen Guangzong's family.

"It seems that Chen Guangzong has given Hosokawa Katsumoto a lot of benefits on weekdays." Li Yuntian couldn't help but sneer, he had already guessed that this was the case, from Keiko Yamaguchi, he knew that Chen Guangzong, who was known as the pseudonym Hall Honzongguang, had a close relationship with Hosokawa Katsumoto, so this time Hosokawa Katsugen would protect Chen Guangzong from suffering a catastrophe.

As for whether Hosokawa Katsumoto's people had a big fight with Chen Guangzong's people, it is unknown, although the rumors that Hosokawa Katsumoto's people killed Chen Guangzong's family, but Li Yuntian thought that this was just a smoke bomb released by Chen Guangzong, so that he could get out.

Due to the fact that the Ming Dynasty and the Wa Kingdom were separated by the sea, and the relationship between the two countries was not very harmonious, Hosokawa Katsumoto was not worried that the Ming Dynasty would send people to check on Chen Guangzong's extermination, because the Ming people would find nothing after coming to the Wa Kingdom.

"Lord Wang, the humble position has secretly investigated, Chen Guangzong's power has not been damaged, the affairs in the domain are operating as usual, and the people don't even know that Chen Guangzong has attacked Linyun County in the Ming Dynasty." Songshan Ming reported to Li Yuntian that as Li Yuntian's spy in the Wa Kingdom, he naturally wanted to investigate Chen Guangzong's intelligence.

"This time, Chen Guangzong lost 3,000 Japanese soldiers, and his strength was damaged a lot, so I'm afraid life will be difficult." Li Yuntian's eyes flashed coldly when he heard this, and he said coldly, "Does Hosokawa Shengyuan really think that this king has nothing to do with him?" ”

Obviously, Hosokawa Shengyuan lied about Chen Guangzong's affairs, and the reason why he had no fear was that he believed that Li Yuntian and Daming had no way to take the Wa Kingdom, even though the Da Ming had a powerful sailor, it was not easy to gain a foothold in the Wa Kingdom.

Besides, the Japanese state lacked resources, and it was poor and white, so there was no need for the Ming Dynasty to spend huge amounts of manpower and financial resources to attack the Japanese state.

"What is the relationship between Yamana Mochitoyo and Hosokawa Katsumoto?" Li Yuntian didn't have the energy and time to settle accounts with Hosokawa Katsumoto now, and after pondering for a while, his words turned around and asked Matsuyama Ming.

The contradiction between Hosokawa Katsumoto and Yamana Mochitomo is irreconcilable, Li Yuntian is waiting for the two to fight, and there is Yamana Mochito's trouble with Hosokawa Katsumoto, presumably Hosokawa Katsumoto's life is not easy.

"The two of them are harmonious on the surface, but behind the scenes, they are deceitful and deceitful to each other." Matsuyama Ming smiled slightly when he heard this, and said, "Now that the daimyo to which the two camps belong are about to move, there have been several serious conflicts, and it is becoming more and more difficult for Yamana Chitoyo and Hosokawa Katsumoto to restrain them. ”

"It seems that the battle between the two is close at hand." Li Yuntian smiled slightly when he heard this, he did not hesitate to dissuade the orthodox emperor from sending troops to the Wa Kingdom in order to wait for the arrival of this moment, hoping to see the day when Yamana Chitoyo and Hosokawa Katsumoto tore their faces as soon as possible.

As the power of the daimyo in various places increased, the control of Yamana Chitoyo and Hosokawa Katsumoto gradually weakened, especially those in remote areas.

In fact, with the beginning of the battle between Yamana Mochitoyo and Hosokawa Katsumoto, the daimyo who had great power in the Wa Kingdom gradually became autonomous, which led to the beginning of the Wa Kingdom into what later generations called the Warring States Period, and opened the curtain on the warlord secession.

"Lord Wang, what Motoyo Yamana and Katsumoto Hosokawa are most worried about now is that the prince will suspend the previous trade between the two countries, I don't know what the prince has planned."

Matsuyama Ming also felt the same way, thinking that the war between Yamana Chitoyo and Hosokawa Katsumoto was inevitable, and this was no longer a grudge between the two, but involving the entanglement of interests of the local Ming Dynasty, and then remembered something and asked respectfully.

"Since they are going to fight, there must be a shortage of funds, and this king will fulfill them, and the trade between the two countries will proceed normally." Li Yuntian smiled slightly when he heard this, he wanted to add fuel to the fire and add another fire between Yamana Mochitoyo and Hosokawa Katsumoto, so that both sides would have sufficient funds to prepare for war.

"When you go back, tell Yamana Motoyo that this king will increase his share of trade by fifty percent." Then, Li Yuntian groaned slightly, and said to Song Shanming.

"The prince's move is really high, not only supporting Yamana Chitoyo, but also expressing dissatisfaction with Hosokawa Katsumoto, those daimyo who follow Hosokawa Katsumoto will presumably complain." Matsuyama immediately understood Li Yuntian's intentions, and looked at Li Yuntian with a smile, Li Yuntian was looking for a blockage in Hosokawa Katsumoto's heart.

As for why Li Yuntian did this, the reason is very simple, who asked Hosokawa Katsumoto to protect Chen Guangzong, those daimyo of the Wa Kingdom are not fools, and naturally know the mystery, so they will definitely be dissatisfied with Hosokawa Katsumoto, and watch those daimyo of Yamana Chitoyo's camp make trade profits.

"You go back and tell Ashikaga Yoshihito that this king is now annoyed by the tax reform in the Jiangnan region, and the struggle between the various factions in the capital is becoming increasingly tense, and the first assistant of the cabinet, Lord Yang Shiqi, is in a quagmire because of his son's injury case, coupled with the chaos of the southwestern feudal state, and now the Ming Dynasty has no energy to take care of the Japanese kingdom at all."

Li Yuntian's eyes flashed with a fine light, and he commanded in an orderly manner, "In addition, because of the huge cost of the war in the Western Regions and the lack of funds in the treasury, the Ming Dynasty is no longer able to launch large-scale foreign wars. ”

"Humble duty understands!" Matsuyama Ming immediately laughed when he heard this, bowed to Li Yuntian and said, he knew that Li Yuntian was trying to use these fake news to confuse Ashikaga Yoshihito and others, so that they could relax their vigilance against Daming and then start a war with confidence.

The reason why Songshan Ming came to Daming was not only as the deputy envoy of the Japanese Mission, but also shouldered an important task, that is, to spy on the reality of Daming, after all, Songshan Ming could speak authentic Jiangnan dialect after studying in Daming for many years.

As for Sakamoto Ryogen, it was just a cover for Matsuyama Ming, who could use his position as a deputy envoy to investigate the situation of Daming.

After Li Yuntian "dried" Songshan Ming for more than two months, he sent someone to tell him that he could go back, and whether or not the trade between the two countries would continue to depend on the attitude of the imperial court had nothing to do with him.

Songshan Ming "helplessly" had no choice but to leave Jiangnan in a gray manner, and rushed to the capital in a hurry, although he touched a nose of ash here in Li Yuntian, but finally got a good thing:

It can be seen from Li Yuntian's statement that Li Yuntian has no intention of suspending trade with the Japanese state, otherwise he would have refused a long time ago and would not have pushed it to the imperial court, after all, the trade between the two countries is dominated by Li Yuntian, and with Li Yuntian's status, there is no need to make a false deal with a "small envoy to the lower country" like Songshan Ming.

In fact, the civil and military officials in the imperial court regarded themselves as the "officials" of the Celestial Empire, and did not disdain to deal with those barbarian countries overseas, which made it easy for Li Yuntian to control the diplomatic power of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, the officials of the Ministry of Rites could only hang Sakamoto Liangyuan in the capital without receiving Li Yuntian's exact instructions, and besides, no one in the Manchu Dynasty was willing to deal with the people of the Wa Kingdom.

Sakamoto Ryogen was extremely depressed in his heart, he and the people of the mission were confined to the Daming State Guest House, and were not allowed to go out except to buy vegetables on the street, and they were also responsible for three meals a day.

If it weren't for the Ming Dynasty, I am afraid that they would live in a dilapidated house with leaky wind on all sides, and once it rains, they will become soup chickens.

The Ming Dynasty must have been hospitable, but since Chen Guangzong led the Japanese army to invade the Ming Dynasty and attacked Li Yuntian in Linyun County, it is still unknown whether the two countries will go to war now, and the people of the Ministry of Rites will naturally not serve them as well as the envoys of other countries.

However, with the arrival of Matsuyama Ming, the situation of Sakamoto Yoshigen and others has been greatly improved, not only the people from the Ministry of Rites have notified them to go to the Taihe Hall to meet the orthodox emperor, but also the people from the State Guest House have begun to take charge of their diet, which makes Sakamoto Yoshigen can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Due to the warmer weather, although the head that claimed to be Chen Guangzong was treated, it still inevitably stinked in the sultry weather, and if it was put down, it would be unrecognizable.

In fact, none of the civil and military officials in the capital cared about that head, after all, they didn't even know what Chen Guangzong looked like, how could they know the authenticity of that head?

Sakamoto Ryogen naturally couldn't take that head with him when he went to the temple, what a sacred place the Forbidden City was, how could that kind of filth be allowed to enter, and after handing it over to the Ministry of Rites for registration, he went straight to a mass grave outside the city and buried it.

In the Taihe Palace, the orthodox emperor asked people to reprimand Sakamoto Ryogen who was kneeling in front of the hall, although Sakamoto Ryogen couldn't understand what the official said, but the taste of kneeling on the hard floor in front of everyone was not pleasant.

After the official who was ordered to reprimand finished scolding, the orthodox emperor accepted the petition submitted by Ashikaga Yoshihito, accepted Ashikaga Yoshihito's petition, and ended Chen Guangzong's attack on Linyun County.
