The information from the Great Qing Kingdom was placed on the imperial case, but there was another piece of information in front of this information.

Fan Wencheng was executed by Ling Chi, which was beyond Zheng Xunrui's expectations, he didn't know much about this big traitor in history, but he knew that Fan Wencheng had made great achievements for the Qing Dynasty to occupy the Central Plains and completely destroy the Ming Dynasty, and most of Fan Wencheng's descendants were high-ranking officials of the Qing Dynasty.

Now, Fan Wencheng, Hong Chengchou, Geng Zhongming, Shang Kexi, Kong Youde and other Han people who took refuge in and returned to the Great Qing Kingdom have all died, and it can be said that the Han group that returned to the Great Qing Kingdom has collapsed, and I believe that the ending of Fan Wencheng will wake up many Han people who are still doing things in the Great Qing Kingdom.

Of course, all this stems from the continuous growth and strength of the Ming Dynasty.

The oppression of the Han people by the Great Qing State has reached the point of no return, especially after Fan Wencheng was executed by Ling Chi, the status of the Han people in the Great Qing State fell to the lowest level, even inferior to the Koreans.

There are not many Manchus in the Great Qing Dynasty, with less than one million Manchu people, it is almost impossible to maintain the regime steadily, and the wisdom of Huang Taiji is to see this clearly, so it takes a lot of effort to improve the status of the Han people, and try to let the Han people integrate into the Great Qing Dynasty, but unfortunately Huang Taiji's idea can never be realized.

Zheng Xunrui's goal is to let the Manchus completely integrate into the Han people, as for those who are arrogant, think how great they are, consistently bully and oppress the Han people, and do things that people are angry about, Zheng Xunrui will definitely not let go, for example, most of the Manchu nobles.

The time for the conquest of the Great Qing Kingdom is gradually ripe, but Zheng Xunrui has to wait a little longer, because the information reported by the Investigation Agency is in the news. And specifically mentioned that the Great Qing Kingdom is facing a major crisis of food shortage, and it will not be long before the Great Qing Kingdom will fall into many crises.

Zheng Xunrui valued more information about Japan's refusal to trade with the Ming Dynasty.

Today, Japan is under the rule of the shogunate, and it is pursuing a policy of seclusion and seclusion. Its strength is far from being comparable to that of a few hundred years later, and it was the Tokugawa family that ruled Japan, and the supreme leader was Tokugawa Ieyasu, the third shogun of the Tokugawa family.

The emperor of Japan did not have any power at this time, he was just a puppet.

Japan is an island nation with limited grain and other crops, not to mention consumables such as tea, silk and porcelain, and has long relied on maritime trade and goods shipped from the Ming Dynasty. The prices are so high that merchants are often able to make a lot of money from them.

During the Chongzhen period, the trade with Japan was monopolized by Zheng Zhilong, and later the East India Company was also involved, Zheng Zhilong was born in Japan and lived in Japan for many years, so the rest of Japan did business and was supported. However, after Zheng Zhilong left Quanzhou, this situation gradually changed. Japan began to slowly refuse to do business with the Ming court, and turned its attention to other overseas trade.

According to the normal understanding, Zheng Xunrui should have sent an envoy to Japan to discuss how to do a good job in commercial business, after all, the Ming Dynasty has completely controlled the maritime trade, if there is no nod from the Ming court. Japan doesn't even want to be able to make a deal with overseas trade.

It's a pity that Zheng Xunrui has an indescribable dislike for Japan in his heart, and when he saw the information sent by the Investigation Bureau, his first thought was to go on an expedition to Japan and fight the opponent obediently convinced.

It's not that Zheng Xunrui is belligerent. In fact, Japan is also belligerent, during the Jiajing and Wanli periods, Japan's Toyotomi Hideyoshi was ambitious, and actually wanted to achieve the goal of conquering the Ming Dynasty by conquering Korea, but don't think that this is Toyotomi Hideyoshi's personal arrogance, in fact, this is already the view of Japan, the Yamato nation as a whole.

Japan's attitude towards China across the sea has long changed, during the Tang Dynasty, Japan worshiped China, at that time Japanese women, proud to be able to conceive a Han child, all the culture and etiquette in Japan, is to learn from China, to the Ming Dynasty, Japan's attitude has changed, they think that Chinese Confucianism has perished, the real Confucianism in Japan, at this time Japan should rule across the sea China.

It was under such circumstances that Toyotomi Hideyoshi made the decision to invade and occupy Korea, and then destroy the Ming Dynasty and rule China completely.

Of course, Toyotomi Hideyoshi's dream, or fantasy, was shattered by the Ming court, and after the defeat of Japan, it did not dare to covet its neighbors across the sea, and implemented a policy of closing the country to the outside world, and it was not until a few hundred years later that it began to show its fangs again.

However, this kind of thinking has always been entrenched in the hearts of the Yamato nation, and it is just that the opportunity is not suitable, and the study of Japan in history also shows this.

What Zheng Xunrui has to do is to knock on the door of Japan, let Japan truly know the strength of the Ming Dynasty, and let them surrender and worship under the command of the Ming Dynasty again.

Zheng Xunrui wants to defeat the self-confidence of the Yamato nation from the root.

Therefore, he is ready to ask the Ming Navy Division to go to Japan, not out of any idea of revenge, and now when it comes to revenge, it does not exist, after all, this so-called powerful Yamato nation has not stepped into the territory of the Ming Dynasty at all.

Fortunately, Zheng Xunrui has absolute prestige and prestige, and if he were to be another emperor, even if he made such a decision, he would encounter unanimous opposition.

The role of naval conquest and expansion, the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military ministers have been clear, half of the household taxes come from the sea trade, all the maritime trade controlled by Batavia, can be said to be a daily income, every month there is a steady stream of warships to transport money and goods to the port of Tianjin, and then to the capital, Fujian and Guangzhou and other places.

Of course, the more direct effect seen by the Minister of Civil and Military Affairs is that all countries come to the court, and the three royal princesses of Europe are married to the emperor, and the court even reveals some views, that is, the imperial court should show the necessary bearing, and give more rewards to overseas or extraterritorial envoys, regardless of how many gifts these envoys bring.

Wenyuan Pavilion.

Xu Wanghua, the first assistant of the cabinet, saw the emperor slowly coming in, and hurriedly stood up and prepared to salute.

The Cabinet is deliberating on maritime trade, and Japan is a major topic, with the participation of Cabinet ministers and officials from the Overseas Trade Division.

This is not a big deal, you must know that if Japan refuses to trade with the Ming court, then they will not get any goods, and the Ming sailors can easily completely block Japan's maritime trade routes, so the cabinet believes that asking Japan to send personnel to negotiate, or the imperial court to send personnel to negotiate, can completely solve this problem.

There was a gradual convergence of views in the Cabinet, which was shared by the Foreign Trade Division.

At this time, the emperor came.

Xu Wanghua sensitively realized that the emperor must have other ideas.

Sure enough, after listening to Xu Wanghua's report, the emperor directly spoke about Japan's refusal to trade with the imperial court.

"I can't say that the opinion of the cabinet is incorrect, and the trade department, who is familiar with overseas trade, agrees, but I have other opinions, so please think about it."

"Japan, the island country, is extremely worshipful of my Han culture, during the Han and Tang dynasties, Japan completely surrendered, but this situation to the Yuan Dynasty, has undergone a fundamental change, the Yuan Dynasty Kublai Khan swept the Quartet, but in the conquest of Japan, suffered a fiasco, the Jiajing and Wanli years of this dynasty, the Japanese Japanese Japanese once rampant on the southeast coast, causing great harm to our dynasty."

"Then Japan invaded Korea, in a vain attempt to invade our Ming Dynasty by occupying Korea."

When the emperor said this, everyone was dumbfounded, they really didn't know very well in this regard, the original Wanli Three Great Expeditions, including the expedition to Korea, was just because North Korea was a vassal country of the Ming Dynasty, and when it encountered danger, the imperial court needed to send troops to settle it, and I didn't expect that the dispatch of troops contained such a deep meaning.

"Japan's refusal to exchange trade with our imperial court this time, I think it is not so simple, the infinite expansion of their hearts will lead to the emergence of the decision to cut off trade with the Ming Dynasty, I think we must deal a good blow to their arrogant mentality."

"I think let the sailors send troops to Japan, if Tokugawa Ieyasu is willing to surrender to my Ming Dynasty and continue to implement maritime trade, then let him continue to dominate Japan, if he is not convinced, then he will be convinced, if he resists desperately, then kill him Tokugawa family and support other families to take the throne......"

The inside of Wenyuan Pavilion was unusually quiet, and even Xu Wanghua couldn't speak with his mouth open.

In Xu Wanghua's impression, the emperor does not like to kill, even when facing the Eight Banners Army, it is not to kill them all, the prisoners on the battlefield are all treated well, at the end of last year, the battle of Fengzhen, the elite of the two thousand cavalry of the Eight Banners Army captured, after careful screening, the emperor tried his best to override the public opinion, and most of them were incorporated into the imperial army.

Why does the emperor have such an attitude towards Japan, even if the reason mentioned by the emperor is valid, there is no need to completely exterminate the ruling family of Japan.

However, since the emperor has made a decision, there must be a reason.

Xu Wanghua will not doubt the emperor's wisdom, since the emperor said so, then the cabinet will discuss it carefully.

After the emperor finished speaking, Xu Wanghua followed and spoke.

"The minister obeys the order, and the cabinet will immediately discuss the matter of sending the sailors to Japan in accordance with the emperor's intentions."

"Okay, you discuss as soon as possible, and I will listen to the results of the cabinet deliberation in the Qing Palace tomorrow."

After the emperor left Wenyuan Pavilion, Xu Wanghua took a long time to recover.

Although he didn't understand the meaning, he still had to discuss the matter of sending the Navy Division to Japan immediately.

At this time, Xu Wanghua's eyes turned to Zheng Zhilong, the right attendant of the household, Zheng Zhilong was born in Japan and was familiar with the situation in Japan.

"Lord Zheng, you have also heard the emperor's will, you are very familiar with Japan, tell me about your proposal......" (To be continued.) )
