Xinshun 1730

Chapter 354
Yong Jian's thoughts turned in his mind three times, but in the end it was only three times.

Tang Renfeng's storytelling could not provide much information on Dashun's politics. Before Liu Yu got involved, the businessman's energy was not enough to reach the real inner circle.Taking Liu Yu's family as a comparison, Yi Guogong does not think that the highest-level state shepherd and governor who are accessible to businessmen are in the same circle as him.

After Liu Yu basically monopolized the Sino-Japanese trade in Nagasaki, Tang Renfeng's storytelling had to go through censorship, and what should be said and what should not be said had to be written by a special person.

Now Liu Yu and Shi Shiyong are floating on the sea outside the river, and Tokugawa Yoshimune also understands that the information about Tang Feng's storytelling obtained in the past ten years is probably all fake.

Moreover, even if there were so many storytellers of the Tang Dynasty before, whether it was Liu Yu's previous storytelling, or Liu Yu's storytelling published only after the political trial, none of them clearly explained the most basic political structure of Dashun.

Businessmen who run in Nagasaki have no experience with top-level buildings, so it is difficult for them to understand the political structure of Dashun.Just like the previous dynasty’s transformation from nobles and civil servants to eunuchs and civil servants after Tumubao, if businessmen can figure out this and have such skills, they can learn the story of "Water Margin" early and go overseas to establish a country and be their own ruler. .

Tokugawa Yoshimune had no way of knowing that Dashun relied on the imperial power to strike a balance among nobles, sons of good families, and civil servants, and he was also completely unable to figure out what the exact positioning of those sons of good families was.

The special feature of Liangjiazi is also thanks to the "Southern Man" in Tokugawa Yoshimune's mouth. Westerners brought some Western knowledge. Emperor Taizong of Dashun Li Guo knew the difficulty of change, so he made preparations early, even though the great cause was not accomplished. death, but also left behind a group of weird "marginal people".

Liangjiazi are those marginal people.

Those good people studied the original geometry, the meaning of measurement, and "Alzhebala". They also studied the seven books of martial arts and the general history books, but they only had a superficial understanding of Confucianism.

Coupled with the deliberate fight between the Imperial College and the Wude Palace, the Liangjiazi did not marry the imperial examination officials, and the Liangjiazi had its own selection system and the imperial examination. They and the civil servants of the imperial examination couldn't urinate in the same pot at all.

Liangjiazi may know geometry and algebra academically, but on an economic basis, they are just a group of "samurai", "knights", "Yeniseri", "Quraysh tribe", "Roman citizens"—and The difference between scholar-bureaucrats is that scholar-bureaucrats drink the blood of the tenants on the land they annexed, while Liangjiazi drink the blood sucked from the whole country by the treasury of the Dashun court. It is impossible to support a family with only that little land without other benefits. A full-time soldier.

The economic base determines the superstructure, even if everyone in these good families is proficient in Newtonian mechanics, Kepler's laws, opening differential, closed integral, and embroidering the envelope of half a curve cluster, as long as they still follow the emperor to drink human blood The economic foundation of China’s economy is determined by the buttocks—the same as those snow-capped serf owners in history who carried LV bags, wore Rolex watches, used Montblanc gold pens, played badminton, listened to gramophones, used diesel generators, drank malted milk, and read special relativity. It's just that the serf owners are similar, not different.

As for the nobles of Dashun, because Li Zicheng, Li Guo, Gao Yigong and others died early one after another, Li Laiheng who succeeded him was too young.

And Liu Zongmin died earlier, Tian Jianxiu carried the cauldron of Liu Zongmin and Li Zicheng's death because of benevolence and justice, he did not burn the granary in Xi'an, Gu Kecheng died in battle, Liu Fangliang died in the battle when he killed Luck Dehun, Ma Shiyao Tongguan surrendered He was slaughtered by Yu Duoduo after failing, and Zhang Nai was ashamed of protecting Li Zicheng, so he gave the jade seal to Li Guo... all kinds of things.

Neither the Sapphire case nor the execution of Huaiyin was needed. Yuan Zongdi, Liu Tichun and others among the grandparents who were still alive after the execution of Luck Dehun were all killed by the magic of time.

Liu Yu is Dashun's "catalyst-like existence" nobleman, and most of the first batch of naval officer students under him are from good families who live around Gyeonggi.Countermeasures are not easy to use.

Tokugawa Yoshimune couldn't figure out these most basic details, and the thoughts flashed in his mind could only go in a crooked way.

Speaking out what he wanted to use, Honmaru's old Nakamoto Tadayoshi pondered for a moment, and then he came up with a general idea.

"Since Liu Yu talked about benevolence and righteousness in Tosa, he is quite capable. If people spread rumors that Liu Yu wants to occupy the peace and stand on his own, and buy people's hearts. Just say that Liu Yu is everywhere, implements benevolent government, and the people shout long live, Weeping and tearing, I want to keep him as the master. This person can fight in water and on land, and he is benevolent and righteous. He can calm the people, and the country and Tang are separated by sea.

"It's just that Liu Yu can be eliminated by using it occasionally, but the time may be too late. It can only be regarded as poisoning in advance, and it will happen in the future. Maybe even if he can win the future, he will die of jealousy. However, this is only the revenge strategy of the ninth generation, not to protect him. The law of the country."

"Besides, Your Highness, if you use time in a battle, you have to fight for a long time, so that there is a possibility of changing generals during the battle. Judging from Tosa's matter, it may be impossible to fight for a long time."

After all, whether it is using time or using two tigers to compete for food to pull the Dutchman into the water, the biggest problem is time.

If Dashun had already made sufficient preparations and was only waiting for the Ryukyu matter to find a reason, then the war might start right in front of them, and no matter what strategies they tried, it seemed that it would be too late.

Tokugawa Yoshimune thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Even if it's too late, I still have to use this strategy. Liu Yu is a person that I hate deeply. This person is as cunning as a fox, as cruel as a wolf, as poisonous as a snake, as gazing as a falcon, and even more so than before. Deceit, if you don't get rid of this person, it will be hard to relieve your hatred."

"This person knows a lot about our country. I'm afraid that he must be the man behind the conquest of the Tang Dynasty. Even if he is defeated for a while, if we get rid of this person in the future, we may not be unable to take revenge."

"Goujian, the king of Yue, also had the humiliation of tasting dung, but he lived on his salary and tasted his courage. He will get revenge in the end of 20 years. You can keep this story in mind."

Several important ministers could hear it, and they didn't know what else Liu Yu wrote in the letter, so that the general seemed to be completely desperate for the prospect of this battle, and now he began to think about forbearance and revenge in the future.

Ooka Tadashi, who had originally brought hope to everyone, suddenly brightened his eyes in the silence of everyone, and said in silence: "Your Highness, since Liu Yu made it clear with conspiracy, it is nothing more than that he reproduced Tosa's work, and he may do it. Maybe not to do it, but because it can be done, Benbang is more afraid and has to be led by the nose. Even if he may just intimidate."

"That being the case, why don't we follow suit?"

Tokugawa Yoshimune asked: "How to emulate?"

"Your Highness, if the people of Tang had already prepared and were just waiting for the Ryukyu incident as a reason, then there must be a mobilization of troops, and there will always be clues."

"If the people of Tang hadn't been prepared, then it would be too late to invite the Dutch two tigers to compete for food."

"If the Tang people were prepared, then it can be said that the Dutch have already discovered the transfer of the Tang people in their stories to their own country-as long as they are transferred, it will not be seamless-only that the Dutch are ready to send out a navy to help the battle."

"Just like Liu Yu's conspiracy, it may or may not be done, but it can be done; then we are the same. It is impossible to be perfect, so our words may be true or false, but the Dutch can indeed It poses a threat to the Tang navy, so he must guard against it, just as our country has to guard against his possible landing elsewhere to assist the soil.”

Since Ooka Tadashi's plan of two tigers competing for food is the only hope at this time, he also used Liu Yu's letter to scare Tokugawa Yoshimune's conspiracy as a reference, and he seems to have found the key to the problem.

Several important ministers suddenly felt that it seemed feasible, but after thinking about it again, Honda Zhongliang asked: "Then Liu Yu is as cunning as a fox, how can he believe it? The Dutch visit the pilgrimage once a year, only in spring, and now the interpreter has returned. If the Dutch Liu Yu will probably believe that people are there; but since the Dutch are not there, he can hardly believe it."

"Edo has never allowed the southern barbarians to live for a long time. In the past, Tang spies were used by the world. They were only allowed to stay because they were from the Tang Dynasty. The children born to the Dutch and the people were all rushed to outlying islands. How could Liu Yu not know the faces of the southern barbarians? "

Ooka Tadashi had already thought of this and was full of confidence.

Since the promulgation of the Lock-up Order, the shogunate has regarded Western books as a scourge.In the seventh year of Chongzhen in the Ming Dynasty, a literati Liu Tong wrote a book "Scenery of the Imperial Capital". Liu Tong was not a Catholic, because there was a small section in "Scenery of the Imperial Capital" that described the Catholic Church in the capital, so The book was banned.

As for the books of Xu Guangqi and others, because of their status as Catholics, they would be burned as soon as they were discovered. The books of Xu Guangqi and others carried by the Nagasaki ship were all burned.

By the time of Tokugawa Yoshimune, Tokugawa Yoshimune preferred Dutch culture, so he loosened up appropriately.This looseness gave Ooka Tadashi a chance to operate.

"Your Highness, before you said: I heard that there are blue books in the world, but I regret that I have never read them. If I can read one or two, I will have no regrets. So some ministers entered the Dutch books, but they could only understand the pictures, but they could not read the words. His Highness then sent the Confucian scholar Aoki Kunyang and the physician Ye Lu Yuanzhang to study Dutch."

"Why don't you ask Aoki Kunyang to make a fake book in Dutch?"

"Since Liu Yu knows many things about the country, he should know that the country is locked and it is impossible to spread the Dutch language. When he sees the Dutch language, he must believe it."

"If he believes it, and if he is ready, he will not dare to launch it rashly. He must go to the Dutch to find out. If the wind season is so wrong, it will be next year."

"In this way, His Highness can take this opportunity to bribe the Dutch with a lot of money, and then allow them to trade. The Dutch will definitely help."

People's calculations are in the plan.

The government of the seclusion of the country is actually a source of misfortune and blessing. On the contrary, because of the seclusion of the country, the credibility of the fake book in the Netherlands has been deepened, and because Tadashi Ooka has changed his position and thought about it. It is impossible for anyone in Japan to understand Dutch, so this Dutch letter must have been written by a Dutchman.

"Fantastic!"

Tokugawa Yoshimune clapped his hands and applauded, thinking that was exactly the case, so he quickly called for someone to go, Aoki Kunyang.

He didn't know that Aoki Kunyang, who had Liu Yu robbed his "Sweet Potato Test" and regarded Liu Yu as a good person, was not qualified to participate in such important military and political affairs in the inner circle.

After Aoki Kunyang, who was worried about the king and the country, figured out this strategy, he couldn't help crying in his heart and showing bitterness on his face.

"Your Highness, General...Although I have the heart to study, the Kelan ginseng ceremony only stays for a few days in spring, once a year. I also have official duties, so I can't concentrate on it, so..."

"Thus, although I know a few Dutch words, I am limited to the sun, moon, dragon, bamboo, plum, sky, earth, and man. I can write 25 letters. As for writing letters in Dutch, I really can't!"
