Chapter 630 0627 [Emperor Toba? The Green Turtle Emperor! 】

"sit."

Emperor Shirakawa gave the order in a casual tone and continued to sip his tea.

The tea ceremony in Japan today is still learned from the sencha of the Tang Dynasty, while the sencha of the Central Plains has gradually replaced the sencha.

Compared with brewing tea, making tea with a distilled tea is more elegant and more interesting.

Kneeling in front of a low table, Emperor Toba said respectfully, "China has a new emperor and has sent envoys."

The White River Emperor had a calm expression and asked in an old voice, "Have you reached an agreement with Zhongtong and his gang of little wolves?"

Emperor Toba replied, "The Grand Chancellor and the left and right ministers all agree that it is better to stay still than to move, otherwise we may invite Toi to invade again."

Hearing this, Emperor Baihe said calmly: "It seems that these little wolf cubs have not been blinded by the benefits."

"Grandpa means..."

"Hosting the Chinese envoys well, do not neglect them. As for establishing transportation and trade, find an excuse to refuse."

"Hay."

Emperor Toba nodded in response.

"Grandson will take his leave first and will not disturb Grandpa from enjoying his tea."

Emperor Toba was about to stand up, but Emperor Shirakawa stopped him and said, "Sit down."

"Grandpa, do you have anything else to say?"

Emperor Toba straightened up and knelt again, his expression still extremely respectful.

Emperor Baihe took a sip of tea, closed his eyes and savored it for a while, then said calmly, "Chongde is five years old this year, right?"

When he heard the name Sudeku, Emperor Toba's eyes twitched uncontrollably and a hint of resentment flashed in his eyes.

Sudeku was his eldest son with Fujiwara no Shoshi.

Only eight months after getting married, she gave birth to a baby boy weighing 6.42 catties. Anyone would have doubted whether it was her own child.

And the child’s biological father is no other than his grandfather.

At this moment, hearing Emperor Shirakawa mention this child, Emperor Toba felt extremely ashamed and anger rose in his heart.

However, Emperor Toba had endured humiliation for so many years and had practiced Qi cultivation well. He lowered his eyebrows and said, "Hi, he is five years old."

"I plan to enthrone Chongde as the Crown Prince on his birthday two months from now. You have an impetuous personality, so go to Shitennoji to cultivate your mind and cultivate your character for a few years."

Emperor Baihe's tone was calm, but extremely domineering, and revealed his unquestionable nature.

In recent years, as Emperor Toba grew older, he often disobeyed his will. Although he did not dare to do it openly, he secretly disobeyed his orders, which made Emperor Shirakawa increasingly dissatisfied.

Now is a good opportunity to enthrone Chongde as the crown prince and drive him out of the palace.

After two years, Sudeku was confirmed as the emperor.

After all, he is his own son, so he should be well managed. Besides, he is easier to control than Toba.

Going to Shitennoji Temple?
Emperor Toba's pupils suddenly shrank, and his hands on his legs tightly grasped his clothes, with the joints showing a dark white color.

How could he not know what his grandfather was thinking?

It sounds good to say that you can go there to cultivate your mind and cultivate your character for a few years, but I am afraid that once you leave the palace, you will never be able to come back, and you will have to live out the rest of your life in Shitennoji, eating vegetarian food and chanting Buddhist scriptures.

Seeing that he was slow to speak, Emperor Baihe frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "It seems that Toba's wings have grown hard and he wants to fly high."

Emperor Toba said bitterly: "Grandpa, calm down. That's not what I meant."

Although he was extremely angry, he felt powerless facing his grandfather.

Everyone knows that he is just a puppet.

In the court and the palace, the only people he could appoint were probably the attendants around him.

It is better to be decent than to be kicked out of the palace in disgrace.

Thinking of this, he said with a dead heart: "My grandson understands. I will practice well in Shitennoji."

Seeing this, Emperor Shirakawa showed a look of satisfaction on his face and waved his hand: "Go, entertain the Chinese envoys well and don't neglect them."

"Hi, grandson is leaving now."

Emperor Toba slowly stood up and walked out of the bamboo pavilion in a daze.

Not only did he cuckold me, but he also made me a father. Now he was kicked out and deprived of the throne...

……

Walking on the streets of the capital, Sun Zhi looked around with great interest.

He discovered that there were very few tall buildings in the Japanese capital. Everywhere he looked, there were low wooden houses. There were very few buildings higher than two stories, making them stand out from the crowd.

As if seeing the disdain in his eyes, Tachibana Takeyasu spoke a series of Japanese gibberish.

Sun Zhi turned around and asked, "What did he say?"

The helmsman translated, "He said that Japan often encounters natural disasters, and the earth's dragons turn over three to five times a year, so houses are not built too high, and they are all made of bamboo and wood. This way, people can survive when the earth's dragons turn over."

"I see."

Sun Zhi looked suddenly enlightened.

Mr. Yin retracted his gaze and said, "It's too depressing."

"Really depressing."

Sun Zhi nodded in agreement.

Although Heian-kyo was modeled after the Tang Dynasty's Chang'an City, its area is not as large as Chang'an, so the markets and streets are extremely crowded.

This kind of crowding is not the vibrant and prosperous kind of Bianjing, but the crowding in layout.

Coupled with the numb expressions of the people on the street, it gives people a sense of depression.

This caused psychological discomfort to people like Sun Zhi, who were used to the hustle and bustle.

Suddenly, there was a loud shouting and cursing coming from the front of the street.

Sun Zhi and Mr. Yin looked carefully and saw a group of people in white robes and holding weapons guarding an ox cart walking towards them.

Wherever he passed, people knelt on the ground with respectful expressions.

Those white-robed warriors were arrogant and sweared at all times. If any civilian was slow to kneel, they would beat and scold him.

As the ox cart approached, Tachibana Takeyasu and the previous samurai leader and others also knelt on the ground.

When everyone knelt down, Sun Zhi and others stood out.

A warrior in a white robe strode over, chattering away.

Although Sun Zhi didn't understand Japanese, he could tell from the other party's expression and tone that he would definitely not say anything nice, and his face darkened.

Seeing that the man in front of him still did not kneel down after his warning, the white-robed warrior suddenly became furious and raised the long-handled knife in his hand to chop at Sun Zhi.

"court death!"

Sun Zhi shouted angrily, and instead of retreating, he took a step forward and drew the steel knife from his waist with his right hand.

puff!

A cold light flashed from the setting sun.

The next moment, blood spurted out.

The white-robed warrior covered his bleeding neck with his hands, his eyes widened, and fell on his back to the ground.

This sudden scene stunned all the Japanese nearby.

Wow!
After a brief moment of distraction, the street suddenly exploded.

The people's faces were filled with fear and they screamed and cried out in fear, but they still knelt on the ground and did not dare to move at all.

Besides horror, there was also a hint of hidden pleasure in the eyes of Tachibana Takeyasu and the samurai leader.

"idiot!"

A man dressed as a monk shouted angrily, and the other white-robed warriors drew their swords and charged.

"Array up!"

Sun Zhi snorted coldly and waved his hand.

The two hundred elite naval soldiers behind him immediately dispersed and formed a military formation, with hundreds of powerful crossbows aimed at the white-robed warriors and ox carts.

With just one command, the opponent can be shot into a sieve in an instant.
