Your majesty is awesome

Chapter 516 Merchants and monks can do the first grade of junior high school, Gao Mou can do the fifteenth grade (fourth update)

The Song Dynasty intends to establish the Huayi order in the Tang Dynasty, trying to get Japan to come to pay tribute.

However, there has been no formal communication between the two countries, so they had to rely on the monks and businessmen from the Japanese country to China or the businessmen and monks from the Song Dynasty to Japan to pass the news.

In order to avoid diplomatic disputes between the Great Song Dynasty or the Wa Kingdom and affect the business of those merchants, these guys will often do such things as tampering with the credentials.

Fujiwara Tadai also specifically explained that it was the maritime merchants of the Song Dynasty who did the most of this kind of thing.

After all, since the Fujiwara clan took control of the government, the Wa Kingdom has adopted a closed-door policy.

And because he is the boss of the Fujiwara family, he has the right to engage in maritime trade. Ordinary Japanese people, haha...not a privileged class, how could there be such a way to make money?

Gao Zhang could only express his deep admiration for Fujiwara Tadai's explanation of so many sea merchants and monks' coquettish operations.

For these guys, as long as the business is doing well and they can make a lot of money, changing their credentials is not a big deal.

Gao Zhang looked at the Prince Furen of the Japanese Kingdom, the smile on his face was so kind, and his eyes were full of satisfaction and appreciation.

Shengsheng looked at Prince Furen, the younger brother of Emperor Baihe, with horror, and always felt that there was something wrong with this child prodigy champion, what do you think I will do if you don't read the credentials?
Although I have a noble status in the Japanese country, I am still an old and old middle-aged and elderly person, not the kind of person you think.

"I don't know why Gao Shaoqing laughed?"

In Gao Zhang's heart, of course, he would not think about those unscrupulous things, but at this moment, the words of the Japanese envoy, plus the previous reminder of Fujiwara Tadai.

It made Gao Zhang feel that he had a lot more cards in his hand, and he had already made up his mind to make various tricks and delays, but the result was good, and you took the initiative to find fault.

Gao Zhang once again spread out the letter of credence, and looked at it carefully. To be honest, this letter of credence was the lord of the Wa Kingdom who was squabbling at the emperor of the Great Song Dynasty with an equal attitude.

After that, I hope that the emperor of the Song Dynasty will quickly bring those mobs from the Song Kingdom back to the country, so as not to damage the diplomatic relations between the two countries.

For this reason, the Wa Kingdom is willing to give the Song Dynasty court 5 taels of gold and 20 taels of silver as compensation.

Looking at the letter of credence, Gao Zhang shook his head slowly, and conveniently placed the letter of credence on the table.

"It turns out that my Great Song Dynasty did not establish formal diplomatic relations with your Wa country. It seems that this is a major dereliction of duty by my Great Song Honglu Temple."

"In this case, please return Mr. Furen to the country, please write a letter of credence that you are willing to pay tribute to the Song Dynasty, and we will talk again."

#####
"...?" Prince Furen was stunned for a long time before he realized that the No. [-] scholar of the Great Song Dynasty child prodigy was talking to himself.

"This, this... can't be, you Son of the Song Dynasty, you have written a letter of credence to my lord in the past, and you are willing to be friendly with the poor country. How can you say that you have no diplomatic relations?"

"You don't understand this, do you? May I ask that since the founding of the Great Song Dynasty, have any of my official envoys of the Great Song Dynasty arrived in the country of Wa?"

"Before you set foot on the border of our Great Song Dynasty, which official of the Wa Kingdom entered the Great Song Dynasty as an envoy of the Wa Kingdom?"

"So, since your Wa country wants to talk to Da Song about the affairs between countries, we have to be more formal after all."

Furthermore, since you said that Wa Kingdom established diplomatic relations with Da Song on an equal footing, hehe... Da Song is not happy with me, what can you do?

You don't even want to be a vassal state of my Great Song Dynasty, and that Fujiwara country is a vassal state of my Great Song Dynasty.In the end, you want me to smoke my own child to please you?
Prince Furen looked at the No. [-] Scholar of the Great Song Dynasty prodigy in front of him with a bewildered expression, and wanted to refute, but felt that what the other party said seemed to make sense.

After all, in the past, people on Wajima liked to play with themselves, and were not willing to deal with humans, nor were they willing to deal with surrounding countries.

I really didn't think about it, there will be such an embarrassing situation today.

The important point is that the young minister of Honglu Temple in the Great Song Dynasty conveyed a very painful message.

Da Song is very displeased with Wa Kingdom’s reluctance to pay tribute to Da Song. As long as you are not willing to become ministers, Da Song will definitely not take care of your Wa country and that Fujiwara country.

#####
With his head full of confusion, Prince Furen left Gao Zhang's mansion at dusk, and on the way back, he remembered that the letter of credence had not been brought back.

I wanted to go back and get it, but when I thought about the credential, even if I got it back, what's the use?

Let it go, let's think about it first, how to report to the Emperor Baihe, let the Emperor Baihe make a decision.

When there is news in another day to see the No. [-] Scholar of the Great Song Prodigy, then bring back the certificate of credentials.

At this moment, Gao Zhang has already closed the door, and at this moment, Lu Qian and Fu An are guarding the door.

And Gao Zhang, a handsome young man, is copying the words and sentences in the letter of credentials word by word.

Yes, Gao Zhang is not just copying, but copying. Even the seal on the national certificate, Gao Zhang used a ruler and a charcoal pen.

The seal was meticulously drawn on a piece of rice paper.

It wasn't until Gao Zhang copied all the characters on the credential and got the seal done.

Only then did he exhale with relief, and then brought another blank rice paper, and began to think about it.

I am going to use the tone of the Japanese national letter to start forging a brand new Japanese national letter with a worse tone and attitude, and a more arrogant and domineering one.

Gao Zhang, who originally had a moral bottom line, of course didn't want to do this, but since he collected information on this aspect from Fujiwara Tadai.

Gao Zhang felt that those merchants and monks could do the first grade of junior high school, so why couldn't I do the fifteenth grade?

What's more, I didn't intend to maliciously slander the Wa Kingdom, but just to remove all the hypocrisy and perfunctory on the surface of the Wa Kingdom Letter.

Express the meaning of the lord of the Japanese country more clearly, so as to prevent the master from thinking that the other party is saying good things.

Look, this disciple of mine is really doing his best for his master.

Thinking about it this way, Gao Zhang immediately felt that his overall moral level had once again exceeded the passing line and reached a good quality.

After doing all this, the biggest difficulty is the seal, but Gao Zhang doesn't think it is a problem.

After collecting the manuscripts of the Japanese national books created by myself, after burning the copied handwriting.

Only then did Gao Zhang call Fu An to enter the door, and then whispered in his ear.

Fu An looked at his son in a daze, but nodded his head more diligently than a kowtow.

"Don't worry about the villain's work, I'll go buy a few carving knives and ten catties of radishes in a while..."

"Well, go, go and go back quickly."
