Aspiring to the Ten Kingdoms

Chapter 501
Kaiju of Korea.

Yi Shenzheng opened his eyes, looked at the tender white arm in front of him, raised his hand, and slapped that hip hard.

With an exclamation, a sweet-looking Korean girl opened her blank eyes and looked around.

Yi Shenzheng said, "Give me some water to wash up."

The Korean girl hurriedly got up from the bed and arranged clothes for Yi Shenzheng.

He thought that the girl didn't know Chinese, and even when she was exercising, she couldn't understand the yelling "Yiyiyaya", so he gestured with his hand and asked her to fetch water for himself.

The Korean girl understood the hand gesture and left in a hurry.

It has been half a month since I came here to Kaizhou.

The plot is the same as what Zhang Jin said, he and Chen Chuyao crossed the sea to Koryo, and there was no chance to go north to Khitan.

King Wang Zhao of Koryo put them under house arrest immediately, and sent troops to protect them to the palace of Koryo.

Corporal Wang Zhaolixian, like Liu Beisan asking Zhuge Liang, persuaded them to stay in Korea, and offered a generous bargaining chip.

Chen Chuyao didn't agree immediately, but put on airs.

After all, he is quite famous in Khitan, and his status will not be low when he goes to Khitan this time.

Although Khitan has overwhelmed the Central Plains court in terms of momentum in recent years, it is still the second most powerful country, and it cannot be compared with Goryeo.

Yi Shenzheng readily agreed.

The reason is very simple. Yi Shenzheng has no popularity in Khitan, and he may not be able to be reused if he goes to Khitan.In Koryo, at least the king of a country, it is obvious how to choose the invitation of the corporal.

Yi Shenzheng successfully attracted Wang Zhao's favor by virtue of his excellent flattery and flattery.He also persuaded Chen Chuyao to stay in Korea.

Because of this, Wang Zhao paid more attention to Yi Shenzheng, and various rewards continued, including gold and silver houses and women.

In addition to food, it is not as good as the Central Plains. Yi Shenzheng even has a feeling of being happy here and not thinking about Sichuan. It is a good idea to stay in Korea even if he moves.

But Yi Shenzheng just thought about it, he couldn't let go of his mother in the Central Plains.

Under the service of the Korean girl, Yi Shenzheng walked out of his house.

Standing outside the house, overlooking from a height, most of Kaizhou is in front of you.

The layout of the entire Kaizhou presents a stepped shape, and the people living at the foot of the mountain are the common people. They live in poverty and frugality, and the living environment is dirty and messy.

In terms of being an ordinary businessman, it is relatively better.

Next is the residence of the soldiers. The population of Goryeo is not large, and the treatment of the soldiers is quite good.

Then there are big merchants and rich merchants, with various shops, hiding goods from all over the world...

Yi Shenzheng visited a few times, he was a little surprised, he even saw the specialty of their Shu country... Shu Brocade.

Next is the area of ​​the royal nobles of Goryeo, which is where he is now.

Finally, there is the top of the mountain, the Koryo Palace. It is more like a palace than a small castle overlooking the entire Kaizhou.

These days, Yi Shenzheng has a certain understanding of the national conditions of Korea.

The Kaiju where they are located is the royal city of Koryo. After the founding of the country, the founding king of Koryo designated Songyue, the land of Longxing, as the royal city and changed its name to Kaizhou.

Goryeo has been beaten for a long time, and in order to survive, it has developed the habit of building a city on the mountain. Kaizhou was built on Songyue Mountain, surrounded by lush pine forests, and it is also known as Songdu.

In Koryo, the class status is more obvious, unlike the Central Plains, although there are class distinctions, but on the surface, it is still the same crime as the emperor who broke the law and the common people.

It's different here in Goryeo, the common people are the most humble existence.

Officials and nobles pass by, and the common people need to salute to show respect.

People in noble territories are not allowed to enter easily.

Unlike the Central Plains, people can do business at the gate of the palace.

When there are large-scale festivals, the entire Royal Street is full of vendors' stalls.

As a nobleman, Yi Shenzheng naturally likes this model.

Yi Shenzheng waved his hand, and the servants brought the sedan chair.

Goryeo's sedan chair is a bit short, a bit ugly, and a bit like a coffin, but it's quite comfortable to sit on.

"Go to the chamber of commerce!"

Yi Shenzheng knew that it would be difficult for him to enter the core of Goryeo in a short time, and Wang Zhao would secretly send someone to monitor him.

He was developing a luxurious image and habit of spending money for himself, and looking for a reasonable reason for future contacts with Wu Desi's people in the chamber of commerce.

At this time, the sky had just rained, and the sun was shining brightly, and a rainbow hung on the top of the emerald green hill in the sky.

Sitting in the sedan chair, Yi Shenzheng turned his head to the north to see the lush and lush Songyue Mountain in the distance.

As usual, Yi Shenzheng went to a few shops, came to a ginseng shop, bought some Korean ginseng plants, and exchanged greetings with the owner, asking him to contact him if he had [-]-year-old Korean ginseng.

He developed the habit of drinking ginseng tea in Korea, but he really wanted to buy an authentic Korean ginseng for his mother to nourish his body.

He still wanted to continue shopping, but someone rushed to report, saying that Wang Zhao had summoned him.

Yi Shenzheng didn't dare to neglect, he didn't continue to take the sedan chair, but borrowed a horse from the chamber of commerce, and hurried to the royal palace of Korea.

Wang Zhaogao sits at the head of the palace hall, and the civil and military officials of Goryeo are at the bottom.

At the top is Pu Shouqing, the founding hero of the Goryeo Dynasty and a foreign relative.There are also Xinkang and Shihui, all three of whom belong to the heroic and wealthy families.

The second is Wang Zhao's most important Han ministers Shuangji, Cai Renfan, and Wang Rong.

It is obvious that Wang Zhao is using Hanchen to suppress heroes and wealthy families.

Chen Chuyao also lowered his head, and the two nodded to each other.

The two of them were newcomers, and they were not welcomed by fellow Han people, but rather hostile.

After all, there are already enough people sent by Hanchen, so if two more people are enough to distribute?

Moreover, Chen Chuyao and Yi Shenzheng are not idle people.

Shuangji, Cai Renfan, and Wang Rong came to Korea because they could not get along or did well in the Central Plains, Jiangnan, and Wuyue.

However, Chen Chuyao and Yi Shenzheng were obviously different. Chen Chuyao was the prime minister of the Jiangnan Kingdom, and Yi Shenzheng was the prime minister of Shu. After the country was destroyed, they were not reused by the Central Plains, so they went to sea to seek a way out, and their status was obviously different.

For some reason, Chen Chuyao and Yi Shenzheng were not recognized by the Hanchen faction.

Seeing that the people had arrived, Wang Zhao said angrily: "The Japanese envoys sent people to question me, saying that the Koreans killed and plundered Kyushu Island, and asked us to hand over the murderer. What do you say about this matter?"

Chen Chuyao and Yi Shenzheng came to Chadao for the first time and did not know the situation of Goryeo in Wa.

But Pu Shouqing, Xinkang, Shihui and Shuangji, Cai Renfan, and Wang Rong knew about it.

Their relationship with their neighbor Wa, across the sea, is not very good.

In the eyes of Goryeo, Wa is a place of barbarians, especially in the past few decades when they have closed their doors, and there have also been "Pirashomon Rebellion" and "Fujiwara Juntomo Rebellion". Existence, relying on the power of local warriors to quell the chaos, is even more weak and deceptive.

Many fishermen in Koryo pretended to be bandits and went to Kyushu, Honshu and other places to plunder.

But it's all small troubles. Goryeo has always turned a blind eye and turned a blind eye.
