Sui Dynasty: I, Yang Guang, am both scrupulous and stable

Chapter 316 Female Japanese King
Facing the extremely powerful Yang Guang, Sudoro had no choice but to tell the truth in order to survive.

Originally, he planned to have a good relationship with both sides. He would help Japan speak here, and he would speak to Sui Dynasty there. After adjusting the relationship between Sui Dynasty and Japan, both sides would feel that they were extremely important, and then they would really be able to Fame and fortune were achieved.

Sometimes you can't be too wishful thinking, otherwise reality will slap you hard and beat you bloody.

The self-righteous Sudoro ridiculously thought that he was a diplomatic bridge between the two countries, but Yang Guang gave him a head-on blow and made him understand that he could be a diplomatic bridge or a dog of the Great Sui Festival Flag.

Sudoro did not dare to hide anything from beginning to end and told Yang Guang the whole story.

"Last year, Your Highness the King of Jin, the news that you used cross-sea tactics to attack Goguryeo and captured Lelang City in one fell swoop reached the Japanese country. At first, the people in the Japanese country didn't believe it, thinking it was a fantasy, but after the facts were put in front of them, they also Have to believe it.”

"For this matter, the emperor of the Japanese country summoned all the generals to discuss the matter. Your Highness, you know that the internal affairs of the Japanese country were originally chaotic and complicated. You hit me and I hit you. But after you attacked Goguryeo, the internal struggle became more relaxed. After a while, everyone started to get scared..."

"I'm afraid that your warship will cross the sea at some point, and tens of thousands of Sui soldiers will suddenly appear in Japan to attack us."

Yang Guang looked gloomy, because the incident in Goguryeo actually promoted the internal cooperation of Japan, which was inevitable. Of course, when your neighboring country is extremely powerful, all internal forces will feel fear.

People are always like this. When there is external trouble, they will unite, but when there is no external trouble, they will fight internally. This is true everywhere.

Yang Guang thought for a while and said: "The Japanese people have thought too much. The Sui Dynasty had no intention of attacking the Japanese people. Moreover, I think this is just an excuse for the Japanese people. They cannot make large warships like ours, so I want to To obtain our drawings and manufacturing techniques, after building such a large ship in the future, I’m afraid the first target will be our Sui Dynasty.”

"They will send warships with about a hundred soldiers disguised as wandering merchants to plunder the coast of our Sui Dynasty. However, our coastline of the Sui Dynasty is too long and there is no way to defend against such attacks from east to west. Nuisance.”

Cold sweat broke out on Sudoro's head, because Yang Guang guessed correctly that this was the real purpose of the Japanese people.

He now began to feel that Yang Guang had other spies besides him in the Japanese country, so Yang Guang knew so much about the internal situation of the Japanese country that there was almost nothing wrong.

Thinking of this, Sudoro knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Highness King Jin, the common people are not hiding it deliberately, it's just because the matter is too big and the common people dare not get involved."

Looking at his performance, Yang Guang knew that he had guessed correctly. He did not have a second spy in the Japanese country, but he knew the urine of the Japanese people, and this would not be the behavior of Japanese pirates in the future.

The long coastline of the Sui Dynasty was a weakness that could easily be targeted before there was sufficient naval power. Pirates and Japanese pirates would be a huge obstacle to the development of the Sui Dynasty in the future with the rise of maritime trade.

It is necessary to nip problems in the bud.

At the same time, Yang Guang also understood that the wolfish ambition of the Japanese people was deeply engraved in their bones, and his eyes were fixed on Sudoro who was kneeling on the ground.

This guy is slick, and he has sent back a lot of information over the years, which is useful, but he cannot be trusted. He is definitely not enough to have only one hidden stake in the Japanese country. He thinks he can start preparing to arrange other hidden stakes.

Now is not the time to quarrel, but being nice to the Japanese country is tantamount to raising tigers to cause trouble.

Yang Guang thought about it for a moment, then lied to Sudoro and said: "Don't think that I don't know anything about the affairs of the Japanese country. If it weren't for the fact that you had done some things loyally before, what happened today would be enough for me to kill you." Brain.”

"Your Highness, King Jin, spare your life, spare your life."

"The Japanese people want to trade with us in the Sui Dynasty. If you can't bring back good news, I believe they will be suspicious of you. So, when you go back this time, tell the Japanese people that even the King of Jin in the Sui Dynasty thinks that such an important thing is only Discussing with you is not enough. I, the King of Sui Dynasty and Jin Dynasty, admire the female Japanese king of Japan very much, and sincerely invite your emperor to visit Sui Dynasty, so that the top officials of the two dynasties can decide on the mutual trade together."

Sudoluo looked at Yang Guang in surprise. It was absolutely impossible for the Japanese king of Japan, the emperor, to visit the Sui Dynasty. However, they also thought that Yang Guang had given him a step down. At least he could explain it when he returned to Japan. .

"Thank you, Your Highness King Jin."

"You rest here for two days first. When you go back, take the gifts prepared by us in the Sui Dynasty and give them to the Japanese kings. Tell them that we sincerely invite them to come to the Sui Dynasty to discuss together. Be careful that your attitude must be sincere, and also If necessary, you can turn me into a lustful person who covets the beauty of your female Japanese king. This king is also acceptable. Try your best to bring the Japanese king to the Sui Dynasty. Of course, your reward will not be less."

"Your Highness, our Emperor is 38 years old."

"It doesn't matter. I'm not someone who cares about details. In the end, it will be fine if you can bring it to our land in Sui Dynasty. But if you don't do it with all your heart, you will be finished after I find out."

"Grass people dare not, grass people dare not."

Sudoro was taken away after the interview.

Li Jing smiled awkwardly: "Your Highness, you covet the beauty of the female Japanese king. Your Highness, these words are what you said yourself. If it were us, we wouldn't even be able to think of it."

"We don't stick to trivial matters when it comes to big things. Anyway, even if we go to Japan, no one will believe what Sudoro says. As for my reputation, can it be ruined by such a trivial matter?"

"Your Highness, Wei Chen feels that this Sudoro is not a trustworthy person."

Yang Guang nodded: "This is a sneaky person with evil intentions. He has gained a lot of benefits over the years. He must have accumulated a lot of wealth and reputation in the Japanese country. If I were him, I would have warned him this time. After that, they will definitely try their best to get rid of our control."

"Then Your Highness, do we need to do anything?"

"Wait a minute, Sudoro still has some value, and it is not that simple to get rid of control. The more wealth and status he has in Japan, the less he can get rid of us. People like him will never let go of these glory and wealth."

"Your Highness is wise."

……

One day later, Li Jing found Sudoro alone and took Sudoro around the city.

Sudoro knew that Li Jing was the commander-in-chief of the cross-sea operations. He was a little flattered for a moment and followed the young man obediently.

Li Jing said calmly: "Mr. Su, there is no need to be so restrained. You and I are both working for His Highness Prince Jin, and we are also colleagues. Although we don't meet much, being so restrained makes us irritated with each other." Sudoro After all, being such an old man, he naturally knew that what Li Jing said was polite, and he would not be so foolish as to think that he and Li Jing were of the same level.

"General Li, you are young and promising. Sudoro admires him very much and hopes that General Li will take care of you."

"Mr. Su, although you have been working for His Highness Prince Jin for many years, you have not been around for a long time over the years. Maybe you are not clear about His Highness. Out of collegiality, I think it is necessary to remind you a few words. "

"General Li, please speak. Sudoro is all ears."

Li Jing took Sudoro into a clothing store, which was filled with cheap fabrics and clothing.

When there was no one around, he said: "When you first met His Highness King Jin, His Highness Jin was just a young man. Although he is still young now, you must not treat him as a young man anymore. His character He is no longer as lively as before, although his identity is still Jin Wang, but you have also understood what kind of Jin Wang he is now."

"As a subordinate, you must recognize your identity as a subordinate. I must recognize your identity clearly. Your identity must be recognized more clearly. His Highness, Prince Jin, can give you glory and wealth, and you will be beyond redemption."

Li Jing's obvious threat made Sudoro a little scared and uncomfortable.

After threatening, Li Jing softened his voice and said, "But don't worry, His Highness the King of Jin has always been very courteous to those who work for him, and he is never stingy with rewards. You get everything from His Highness the King of Jin every year." It's a lot of money, as long as you work well, His Highness Prince Jin will never treat you badly."

Sudoro immediately said: "General Li, don't worry, I am absolutely loyal to His Highness King Jin, and I will work wholeheartedly for His Highness King Jin."

"Words are not enough, you have to show it with actions."

Li Jing lowered his voice and said: "The Japanese king and the Japanese ministers coveted the rich and fertile land of the Sui Dynasty. His Highness the King of Jin has long known this, and you pretended to speak for the Japanese King. His Highness the King of Jin did not deal with you because of old feelings, but this matter You have to understand the matter yourself, this should be the last chance His Highness Prince Jin gives you, don’t waste it.”

Sudoro said in a panic: "General Li, you are a close friend of His Highness King Jin. Please show me a clear path."

"There is no way to know the way. His Highness King Jin's requirements for you are not that high. Just report the situation of Japan truthfully, convey His Highness Jin's wishes truthfully, and find a way to achieve the tasks assigned by His Highness Jin King. Well, His Highness King Jin has always been generous with rewards for his loyal subordinates, and he has never asked you to do anything you cannot do."

"Just like this time His Highness the King of Jin told you to invite your female Japanese king to the Sui Dynasty. His Highness the King of Jin did not say that he would punish you like this if you failed. That would mean that there would be no big punishment if you failed. , but it means that if you don’t do it with all your heart, your reputation will definitely be ruined. The key point is the four words of "do your best."

After Li Jing's reminder, Sudoluo understood and quickly thanked him: "Thank you, General Li, for your guidance."

Li Jing waved his hand: "Mr. Su, we will inevitably communicate with each other in the future. They are all mutual. I also hope that Mr. Su will prosper in the future. Don't forget that you and I had a great conversation today."

"Why did General Li say this?"

Li Jing smiled and said, "Mr. Su, don't you see the great future that is right in front of you?"

"General Li, please make it clear."

Li Jing looked like he was regretful that he had entered Baoshan and returned empty-handed: "Mr. Su, sometimes I don't know what to say to you. Why can't such a smart person understand this?"

"General Li, I'm really confused when you say that."

Sudoro looked puzzled.

"Mr. Su, you see that you have a good reputation in the Japanese country. In the Sui Dynasty, you have His Highness the King of Jin as your backing. Your relationship between these two dynasties is iron-clad. You will carry out His Highness the King of Jin's orders." Well, His Highness the King of Jin must also rely on you. His Highness the King of Jin actually told me quietly that he intends to trade with the Japanese country. However, the internal threats of the Japanese country must be eliminated, and there must be a trustworthy person to take over the matter. Isn’t that you? ?"

"As a bridge between the Great Sui Dynasty and the Japanese Kingdom, all you need to do is to maintain the stability of the Japanese Kingdom's tribute to the Great Sui Dynasty for His Highness the King of Jin. In this way, your position will be more stable than that of your Japanese King. You will be in the future His power is not necessarily less than that of the Japanese king."

Sudoro said in a daze: "General Li, is what you said true?"

"Of course it is true. Once the Japanese and Sui trade trade, you must be the manager of the mutual trade. But you have to think clearly. You are not from the Japanese. You are still from His Highness the King of Jin. The Japanese and even the Japanese king are in peace with each other. You will never have the initiative in the matter of mutual trade in the Sui Dynasty, so you have to rely on His Highness the King of Jin to promote the mutual trade and push the Japanese country to surrender to the Sui Dynasty."

Sudoro understood that this matter was not easy, but if it was really done, it would indeed be what Li Jing said.

Li Jing nodded at Sudoro again: "Mr. Su, please think of another question, how old is His Highness King Jin this year?"

"Very young."

"You may not know much about the situation in the Sui Dynasty now. Our Crown Prince has lost his favor. His Royal Highness King Jin is about to ascend to the position of Crown Prince. According to the age of our King Jin, in the next at least 50 years, Su Sir, as long as you do good things, you will be able to enjoy wealth and wealth, and your son, grandson, and even your great-grandson, and your whole family will be blessed by His Highness the King of Jin for several generations. Mr. Su, you should be able to figure this out for yourself."

After what Li Jing said, Sudoro finally reacted.

"Thank you, General Li, for the tip."

"No, no, I just have to remind Mr. Su that now His Highness is doubting your loyalty. This incident may also be a test for you. You must follow His Highness King Jin's instructions in everything and do your best. Just do it and don’t make His Highness King Jin angry again.”

Sudoro asked in a low voice: "General Li, does your Highness have any spies other than me in Japan?"

Li Jing pretended to be mysterious and said: "I really don't know this. I don't know everything about His Highness Prince Jin."

"General Li, you are the closest subordinate to His Highness King Jin. How could you not know?"

Li Jing said in a low voice: "His Royal Highness the King of Jin has an organization directly under his command, which specializes in managing hidden dangers in various places. Don't you understand that he knows so much about the affairs of the Japanese country?"

"Mr. Su, I would like to advise you, just work seriously. Everything is under the control of His Highness Prince Jin."
