Li Er of the Tang Dynasty: Ancestor Xie is here!

Chapter 171 It’s better to give birth to you than to give birth to a sesame seed cake!

Zhu Xi never expected that his romantic moment in the Tang Dynasty would be recorded so vividly with a camera that it could even be said that there were no blind spots at [-] degrees.

"We asked the four of you to go to Datang to have fun?" Lao Zhu asked fiercely.

Zhu Fang swallowed and asked cautiously: "Dad, didn't you say you want us to have a good time with my eldest brother?"

"We want to make you happy, how can you be so happy?" Lao Zhu said in a fierce voice, "You just go to the brothel to be happy?"

"Dad, actually we don't want to go either, but brother Ke Ke..."

Before Zhu Han could finish his words, Lao Zhu Duotou slapped him with his belt and screamed.

"I think you want to go!" Lao Zhu puffed his beard and glared, pointing to the side and said: "Go over there, kneel down one by one! Let me use the belt to send you to the sky one by one!"

"Dad, I was wrong!" Zhu Di immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.

"Now you know you were wrong?" Lao Zhu asked angrily: "Then what did you do just now? How come you didn't know you were wrong when you were holding a Tang Dynasty girl in the hook? Let's see you thought you were right at that time Very good!"

"Ah, dad, there's a misunderstanding..." Zhu Han opened his mouth, but his defense seemed so feeble.

When Lao Zhu said the phrase "a Tang Dynasty girl in one hand", Zhu Fan couldn't help but miss Chang'an Goulan.

Tang Dynasty was tolerant and confident, and liked the plump and slightly chubby kind. Zhu Fan just felt that his life was in vain.

Yeah, very moist.

It should be noted that the Tang Dynasty's fatness is not the authentic big fat pig aesthetic, but the adult aesthetic of having meat where there should be meat and thinning where there should be - so don't have any illusions. Even if you went to the Tang Dynasty, it would not be beautiful.

"Misunderstanding?" Lao Zhu smiled bloodthirstyly: "Then let's clear up the misunderstanding first... let's see how we fight!"

"Ouch!" Zhu Fan wailed, cowering aside and not daring to move.

However, no one interceded for them. When Lao Li and the others left, Queen Ma had already gone there for a stroll with her new best friend, Queen Changsun, and with her was the boss Zhu Biao.

In other words, the protective umbrella of these four poor people is gone.

"Look at you guys, you are really worthless!" Lao Zhu pointed at the four of them sadly: "We... we would rather give birth to you than give birth to a few sesame cakes!"

"Dad, we are much more useful than sesame cakes..." Zhu Di retorted nonchalantly, but the result was not good, and what he got was a whip from Lao Zhu.

"We said you are not as good as Shaobing, you are not as good as Shaobing!" Lao Zhu danced his belt like a windmill.

Lao Zhu was contributing anger points, and the four little ones were bursting with grievance points. Li Qing was watching the show while chewing pickled pepper chicken feet.

After finally waiting until Lao Zhu was tired from beating, Li Shimin and the others returned to Qianqing Palace.

"Have you finished the fight?" Lao Li winked at Lao Zhu.

"Now that someone is here, please record this beating!" Lao Zhu coldly warned his four sons who were lying on the ground and wailing.

In order to fulfill his friendship as a landlord, Lao Zhu summoned his ministers and held a banquet in the palace to entertain the emperors and ministers from the Tang Dynasty.

After hearing the identities of everyone, the military generals almost all went to Yu Chigong and Cheng Yaojin. Judging from their purpose, one was to see the generals of the Tang Dynasty, and the other was to drink some wine.

The civil servants sat on the same spot, sitting across from each other and drinking, but their eyes glanced at Li Shimin from time to time.

To be honest, if you are a minister, it is much easier to work for Li Shimin than for Lao Zhu... And Lao Li also has a reputation for being open-minded and accepting advice humbly, and he is one of the people who are respected by ministers in ancient and modern times.

But if you want to ask whether you dare to surround Lao Li like the generals surrounded Yu Chigong, then they definitely don't dare.

Just kidding, the big boss is sitting next to you. You go to toast with other bosses. Do you think you have too many nine tribes?

"Old Li," Zhu Yuanzhang raised his wine glass and toasted to Li Shimin beside him: "We feel so lucky to be able to get to know you!"

He is not talking nonsense. In fact, the emperors Lao Zhu admired most were Li Shimin and Liu Bang.

Zhu Yuanzhang once said that Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty was the only one who had unparalleled heroic appearance, commanded all directions, ruled Zhenguan, and showed his style and virtue...all of whom had the merit of ruling the world with virtue and making the world peaceful. He also told all the ministers that the Yingjie Master Taizong had seen this, and he was very generous with his words. I have high hopes for you, so please don't forget to say everything because of your scruples.

Of course, Lao Zhu was probably just being polite, after all, he had a bad temper.

Probably... no ministers would take it seriously and think they could really talk to Lao Zhu freely, right?
  Dare you talk to us like this? Are your Nine Clans wholesale?

Even the most orthodox Lao Zhu Chui has to admit that he and Lao Zhu absolutely cannot talk about everything.

"It's not a waste of time for me to know heroes like Brother Chongba." Lao Li raised his glass, clashed it with Lao Zhu, and drank it all in one gulp.

"Hahaha... so happy!" Lao Zhu wiped his mouth.

"Brother Chongba," Li Shimin put down his wine glass and said to Zhu Yuanzhang: "I remember when you just came back, did you lament the tight financial situation in the Qianqing Palace?"

"Isn't it? We have to provide disaster relief, manage rivers, and fight wars..." Lao Zhu began to vomit his bitterness, "Tell me, we don't have a cornucopia, where can we get this money?"

"It's simple, if you don't have any money, go out and look for it." Li Shimin chuckled, "I think at the beginning, the problem of lack of money bothered me a lot. Later, my dear brother gave me an idea."

"What's the idea?" Lao Zhu immediately became interested.

"Japanese country." Li Shimin chuckled.

"Japanese country?" Zhu Yuanzhang thought for a moment, then immediately shook his head and said: "Brother Li, don't lie to us. We only know that Japan is a poor country. Where can we get the money to plunder it? Do you want us to catch those poor people? Can’t you squeeze the oil out of the bones?”

"Oh, that's not the case." Li Shimin said with a smile, "I'll ask my dear brother to give you the entire map later. The Japanese country has to be attacked." "The Japanese country and I had no grudges in the past, and we have no grudges recently..."

Before Lao Zhu finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Shimin.

"The Japanese country has a silver mine with a silver reserve of tens of millions of taels..."

"We remembered that we were robbed by Japanese pirates when we were young!" Lao Zhu said through gritted teeth: "We must destroy this Japanese pirate's lair! We cannot leave the problem to future generations!"

These ten million taels of silver reserves immediately attracted Lao Zhu's heart, and he even went so far as to concoct a revenge.

If it was just an expedition, he might not be willing to do it; but if there was such a large silver mine at the destination, then... you're welcome.

"How can we allow others to snore and sleep on the side of the bed?" Lao Zhu added.

"Hey, you are right." Li Qing suddenly interjected from the side: "Even if you don't attack the Japanese country, the Japanese country will still spy on you."

"Real or false?" Lao Zhu obviously didn't believe it. "How dare you peek into our Central Plains from such a small place? Bah! He deserves it?"

"That should be more than two hundred years later, that is, the [-]th year of Wanli." Li Qing began to talk about the Wanli Korean War, one of the three major campaigns of Wanli.

"At that time, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the Japanese slave nation, ended the troubled times and unified the entire Japanese country. Afterwards, he set his sights on Korea and the Ming Dynasty."

"It's a small country! You've gone too far to bully us!" Lao Zhu immediately became angry.

Li Qing flipped through the information and continued: "In order to quell domestic samurai's dissatisfaction with the uneven distribution of land, Toyotomi Hideyoshi decided to send troops abroad in May of the [-]th year of Wanli to acquire more land. In June of the [-]th year of Wanli, he In the month of August, he sent an envoy Zong Yizhi to inform the King of Korea, Seonzu Li Huo, that he intended to make a false trip to Korea to attack the Ming Dynasty in the spring of the [-]th year of Wanli, and asked for assistance."

"Li Ao categorically rejected Toyotomi Hideyoshi's proposal. After all, Korea had been a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty for more than two hundred years. At that time, the situation in Korea was not very good. The eight-level military preparedness was depleted. Li Ao emphasized culture over military affairs. In the court, The fighting was so fierce that "people did not know how to fight for more than two hundred years."

"After receiving the news of the rejection, Toyotomi Hideyoshi was not surprised and began to prepare for the invasion; in February of the [-]th year of Wanli, Toyotomi Hideyoshi officially sent troops on the grounds that North Korea refused to assist the Japanese in attacking the Ming Dynasty."

"On the first day of March in the [-]th year of Wanli, the First Army took the lead in crossing the sea and arrived at Tsushima Island to stand by. Only twenty days later, on March [-]th, Seoul, the King of Korea, officially fell; on the sixth day of May, Pyongyang was officially captured. city."

Zhu Yuanzhang and Li Shimin both said in astonishment: "Why so fast?"

"Didn't I say it before? Korea has been at peace for more than two hundred years, while Japan has just ended its troubled times. The level must be different." Li Qing said with a smile: "Not only did you think it was fast, but even the Ming Dynasty at that time thought it was fast. It’s so unbelievable that quite a few people think this is a joint effort between North Korea and Japan to lure the Ming Dynasty into a trap.”

"The Ming Dynasty hesitated for more than a month and finally found out the news clearly, so they sent more than a thousand people into North Korea in advance. However, due to insufficient information from North Korea and insufficient food and grass supplies, the pioneer ancestor Chengxun defeated Pyongyang City. Again In addition, North Korea has always wanted to require the Ming army to be commanded by North Korean generals. Zu Chengxun was extremely dissatisfied and made the above situation clear to General Yang Shaoxun."

"Bah, North Korea is really shameless!" Lao Zhu immediately became unhappy. You are a vassal country, and you still want to command my great soldiers?

Is it just because of your cowardly behavior that you talk about the truth and burst into tears when it comes to matters?
  "Who says it's not?" Li Qing said with a smile: "Needless to say what happened next, the imperial court dispatched more than [-] people to quickly recover Pyongyang. After another year of fighting, Toyotomi Hideyoshi wanted to preserve the results, so Then he sent envoys to discuss peace."

Of course, it is quite interesting how the envoys on both sides deceived the superiors and subordinates. Governor Konishi of Japan and Shen Weijing of the Ming Dynasty collaborated to forge Guanbao and lower the list. It can be said to be an excellent matching mechanism in East Asia.

"However, in the first month of the twenty-fifth year of Wanli, Toyotomi Hideyoshi launched another war, and was pushed all the way to Ulsan by the Ming army, which is the seaside. In the end, due to the sudden death of Toyotomi Hideyoshi, the Japanese army was unable to support any more, and the war ended with the Ming Dynasty. It ended with a complete victory for the army.”

From the beginning of the war, the Ming Dynasty's army was far smaller than the Japanese army. Toyotomi Hideyoshi mobilized as many as [-] troops. However, the Ming Dynasty's reinforcements were scheduled to dispatch [-], but in fact they were only about [-]. It was not until the [-]th year of Wanli that more troops were gradually added.

Of course, some traitors have always been harsh. In their words, the Ming army lost all the way from the Yalu River to Ulsan, and the Japanese army won all the way from Pyongyang to the sea.

History books may lie, but battle lines never lie.

"Our Han government has never lost against little Japan." Li Qing sneered, "Whether it was Baijiangkou or the Wanli Korean War, little Japan was vulnerable; on the other hand, Meng Yuan was blown into the sea by the so-called divine wind. There was also the Sino-Japanese Sino-Japanese War of [-]-[-] between the Manchus and Qing Dynasties five hundred years later, and those who lost lost their pants."

Lao Zhu snorted coldly and made up his mind: "Fight, this Japanese pirate must be beaten! Even if it is not for the little money, we must beat the shit out of him, and we cannot leave the problem to future generations!"

What I have to admit is that Lao Zhu is definitely a responsible ancestor, at least he never thought of trusting the wisdom of future generations.

After Lao Zhu cursed and slandered the Japanese for a few more times, he suddenly asked: "Brother Xian, do you think Wanli will be the emperor more than two hundred years later?"

"Yes, theoretically speaking, the Wanli Korean War should be [-] years ago." Li Qing said with a smile: "The name of Emperor Wanli is Zhu Yijun, according to the seniority you assigned to the fourth generation. "Gao Zhan Qi Jianyou, Hou Zai Yi Chang Yu", Zhu Yijun should be your ninth grandson."

There is nothing wrong with this. If we talk about XX generations of grandchildren, the son should be the first generation and the grandson should be the second generation.

"Then after Lao Si, there will be seven emperors between Wanli and Wanli?" Lao Zhu asked again.

"Oh, no, there are nine in total." Li Qing scratched his head and said, "There are those who have no sons, and in the end they can only choose their younger brothers to take the throne."

"That's it." Lao Zhu nodded and asked: "How about the fourth son's son, how is the emperor doing?"

"Tell me about Renzong Zhu Gaochi," Li Qing said with a smile: "Big Fatty Zhu is very good. His character is very similar to the boss. During Zhu Di's northern expedition, it was he, Zhu Gaochi, who supervised the country and helped him. He worked around and provided support, and later people ridiculed their relationship as 'Ming Renzong and his Northern General Zhu Di'."

"Then we want to go see him."

Upon hearing that Zhu Gaochi and Zhu Biao had similar personalities, Lao Zhu immediately became interested.

Although I can't see Biao'er as the emperor, it's nice to see someone who looks like him.

"We can go to the fifteenth year of Yongle. Don't you want to see the fourth son who has been the emperor for more than ten years?" Li Qing asked Zhu Yuanzhang with a smile.

"Have we not seen the fourth child?" Lao Zhu asked in astonishment.

"That was Lao Si during the Jianwen period, have you forgotten?" Li Qing reached out and knocked on his head to show his disdain for Lao Zhu.

Lao Zhu suddenly realized: "Look at our memory, Jianwen is Jianwen, Yongle is Yongle... Okay, let's go see the fourth child from the Yongle period first!"

Li Qing glanced at Zhu Biao and said to Lao Zhu: "That's it. Let's go to the fifteenth year of Yongle to see the old Zhu Di."
