Chapter 633 0630 [Conspiracy]

Midday on the moon.

The entire Heian-kyo fell into darkness and silence, even the imperial palace was the same.

Japan is not as good as the Central Plains. The so-called embassy is just a slightly larger courtyard. It was probably the residence of some official before, and it was temporarily converted into an embassy when they arrived.

The style of the houses in the courtyard is consistent with other mansions in the city. They are low and cramped, all made of bamboo and wood, with almost no bricks or stones to be seen.

Mr. Yin walked towards the main room with drunken eyes and reeking of alcohol.

The room was lit by dim candlelight, casting a tall and burly figure on the doors and windows.

When I pushed the door open and walked in, I saw Sun Zhi sitting cross-legged on the tatami with his chest bare. He was holding a medicine bottle in his hand and evenly applying a black sticky medicine on his chest.

Mr. Yin was already used to it, so he walked over and sat down opposite him, and made himself a cup of hot tea.

After applying the medicine, Sun Zhi closed his eyes and began to breathe with a unique rhythm.

As he breathed, his chest rose and fell, and the black medicine gradually seeped into his skin.

A quarter of an hour later, Sun Zhi exhaled and slowly opened his eyes.

Seeing this, Mr. Yin asked, "It's been three or four years, and you haven't recovered yet?"

Sun Zhi smiled bitterly: "The emperor's spear strike was too fierce, and I almost lost my life. I am lucky to be able to save my life, so I dare not expect to recover. Now I can still wield a steel knife, drink wine and eat meat, I am very content."

Thanks to his strong physique from practicing martial arts since childhood, he was able to withstand Han Zhen's spear.

But even so, the internal organs were severely damaged, especially the lungs, which were the most seriously injured.

Relying on his strong physique and the Taoist health-preserving exercises that Li Nanjia spent a lot of money to find for him, he was able to preserve his martial arts skills.

But in the end, the root of the problem is damaged and cannot be healed. Now, relying on his youth, he seems to be no different from before. But when he gets old and his energy and blood are exhausted, he will suffer.

After putting on his clothes again, Sun Zhi said, "Tachibana Takeyasu killed Fujiwara Jin and fled here. I made a casual move and didn't expect him to go up the mountain so soon."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Yin commented: "This person forgets his principles when he sees profit. He has quick wits and a cruel heart, but he acts too impulsively. Today he can kill his superior for a glass paperweight, and tomorrow he can betray you for his own benefit. He may be useful for a while, but not for a lifetime."

"I know."

Sun Zhi chuckled and said, "It's just an idle move. After the war starts, having a Japanese to show us the way will save us a lot of trouble."

"After having a feast with Saihiro today, I have roughly understood the context of Japan."

Mr. Yin took a sip of tea and continued, "Although the current emperor of Japan is Toba, the one who actually holds power is the retired Emperor Shirakawa. However, the emperor's power is only in Kinki. The northeastern Oshu is occupied by the Fujiwara clan, who have been operating for hundreds of years. Shikoku, Kyushu and Chugoku are the territories of the Taira clan, and Kanto and Chubu are the fiefs of the Minamoto clan."

"Previously, the Fujiwara clan controlled the government and sidelined the emperor for more than 200 years. After Emperor Shirakawa came to power, he used a strategy of driving the tiger to swallow the wolf and supported the Taira clan to fight against the Fujiwara clan. Although the goal was achieved, the Taira clan's ambitions were also not small. Now the four parties are fighting openly and secretly, barely maintaining a balance."

Sun Zhi raised his eyebrows and said, "So even without us, Japan will soon be in civil strife?"

"Not bad!"

Mr. Yin nodded.

Sun Zhi asked, "What are you going to do?"

The two have known each other for so many years and are very familiar with each other. What Mr. Yin said just now shows that he already has a plan.

Mr. Yin pondered and said, "It's not difficult to attack Japan, but it's not easy to govern it. After all, Japan has a population of five to six million. It's impossible to kill them all. Simply suppressing them with force will only backfire. We need to disintegrate from within. Emperor Toba is a good candidate. He was a puppet and suffered a lot of humiliation."

Sun Zhi frowned slightly and said, "After all, he is the Emperor. Even if he is humiliated, I am afraid he will not join forces with us."

"No, no."

Mr. Yin shook his head and said with a strange look, "Do you know what Emperor Shirakawa did? He had an affair with his adopted daughter, and when she became pregnant, he betrothed her to his grandson, Emperor Toba. Now, Emperor Shirakawa still has not stopped and continues to have an affair with his grandson's daughter-in-law. The key is that this matter is not a secret among the powerful people in Japan, and it has become known to everyone."

"How can any man endure such humiliation?" Hiss!
Sun Zhi took a deep breath and raised his eyebrows: "This Baihe Fahuang... is really ridiculous and excessive."

It would have been fine if he had had an affair with his adopted daughter, but the key point was that after she became pregnant, he actually betrothed her to his own grandson.

After she became his granddaughter-in-law, he continued to have an affair.

Such debauchery really opened Sun Zhi's eyes.

Although the royal families in the Central Plains also married their brother's wife and their father's concubine, compared with Japan, they were simply moral role models.

Mr. Yin is right. Any normal man with a strong blood and vitality cannot tolerate such a thing.

Mr. Tora continued, "Moreover, it is said that Emperor Shirakawa is increasingly dissatisfied with Emperor Toba and seems to be planning to make him become a monk and make his youngest son the crown prince."

"Youngest son?"

Sun Zhi was stunned at first, but then he immediately realized that the so-called youngest son was the child born from the affair between Emperor Baihe and his grandson's wife.

Mr. Yin ordered: "When the navy attacks Heian-kyō, tell your men to be careful and try to capture Emperor Toba alive, but don't take his life."

He joined the army, and although he belonged to the military, he was a formal civilian official.

The generals were responsible for fighting wars, but he was concerned with post-war governance.

It is easy to conquer the world but difficult to keep it. This is an eternal theorem, especially for a foreign country like Japan. If the aftermath is not handled properly, there will be endless troubles in the future.

Destruction is always easier than governance.

"I saved it."

Sun Zhi nodded in response.

"Go to bed early, you have to meet the Emperor of Japan tomorrow."

After saying that, Mr. Yin drank the tea in one gulp and walked towards the bedroom.

In the bedroom, two Japanese women had been waiting for a long time.

After taking off his clothes and washing up with the help of the Japanese maid, Mr. Yin waved his hand.

It’s not that he is not interested in women, but the makeup of Japanese women is really not flattering.

The face was covered with thick white powder, the teeth were dyed black, the eyebrows were shaved off, and the eyebrows were redrawn on the forehead...

Seeing this, the two maids left with disappointment.

For them, this is an opportunity to reach the sky in one step.

If a maidservant could have an affair with a Chinese envoy and become pregnant, she would be able to immediately get rid of her status as a maid, and the child she gave birth to would be adopted by the Taira clan, the Fujiwara clan or even the royal family and raised with great care.

The practice of crossing the border to plant seeds had already begun in the Tang Dynasty and did not stop in the Song Dynasty.

Although Japan adopted a policy of isolation and did not allow trade with the Central Plains, the Japanese nobles adopted a different approach.

Buy young men from Central Plains from human traffickers at a high price.

A strong and handsome young man could even be sold for as much as fifty taels of silver.

To the extent that, the homes of the Japanese dignitaries all kept several men from the Central Plains.

These men from the Central Plains are not slaves. They often hold important positions in the homes of the powerful. They are served with good food and drink every day and serve as bridegrooms every night.
