In the 21st year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, 1423 A.D., on April [-]th, Master Guoshi returned to Beijing.

As soon as I came back, I saw Tang Mu coming to visit with a smile: "My lord is really clever, it's just the right time to come back!"

In fact, Tang Shaozhe didn't know what Tang Mu was talking about at all, but he just nodded his head and was overwhelmed, waiting for the next one.

Sure enough, Tang Mu still had something to say later: "My lord, you must be aware of the Japanese "riot" in Ninghai Town that was raging a while ago, right?"

This is natural!Even if it wasn't written in the mansion newspaper, Tang Shaozhe knew about it—it was such a big deal, there was no way he didn't know about it.Plane Travel Guide 1439

Seeing Tang Shaozhe nod his head, Tang Mu continued: "Because of the Japanese riot in Ninghai Town, the imperial court specially sent envoys to the country of Japan to demand that the King of Japan hand over the murderer, and it is best to hand over the black hands behind the Japanese pirates. Guess what happened? ?”

Looking at Tang Mu's smiling expression, Tang Shaozhe probably guessed the result of the negotiation between the two parties: "Is there no play?"

Tang Mu shook his head, and walked forward behind Tang Shaozhe: "It's not just a joke? The Japanese king didn't meet with the special envoy at all, but left the court's angel in the post for three days without paying attention, and finally sent someone The old shogunate is here to deal with it."

Compared with other people in this era, Tang Shaozhe, who has played Japanese Sengoku games, knows very well what the identity of the shogunate elder means.At least he can be regarded as a high-level official in the shogunate, but looking at Tang Mu's appearance, it is obvious that it is wrong to receive him like this.

Seeing that Tang Shaozhe didn't seem to understand, Tang Mu immediately explained: "The court angels sent foreigners, so they should be greeted by the local king in person. Now that the Japanese are putting on such a face, they are obviously ignoring me!"

Are you too on the line?But the target is Japan, so I won't argue with you, just keep talking!

"My lord doesn't know something. Not only did the Japanese not treat him politely, but they were extremely rude afterwards. Not only did they reject all the conditions of the Great Angel, but the most unbelievable thing is that they are still rushing to the court when Master Gu returns to court. Come up to insult and make fun of it!" As if thinking of something interesting, Tang Mu's expression was very interesting, and he shook his head again and again: "It's really unexpected!"

Now even Tang Shaozhe found it interesting, he knew Tang Mu's personality very well, it must be no small matter to make Tang Mu express surprise like this: "Oh, let's hear it!"

Tang Mu didn't speak in a hurry, but said something else: "My lord, do you know the loss of Daming during the Japanese invasion in Ninghai Town?"

Are you too jumpy?Why did you switch the topic back to China from abroad in one breath?

But Tang Shaozhe didn't show too much surprise, just nodded, and said in a calm manner: "Well, I have heard it a little bit! The residence newspaper said that there were more than 5600 military and civilian casualties, and gold, silver, and silk are worthless, isn't it?"

"The loss of gold, silver and silk, as well as the casualties of soldiers and civilians, are actually not the key points. Those dirty officials did not report the most important content to the court." Tang Mu shook his head again and again: "But this is not an accident. I dare not report it.”

Tang Shaozhe understands this kind of thing very well, it has been like this in Chinese officialdom since ancient times. The official figures reported by the "government" always have all kinds of water, so that over time, the official figures completely lose their credibility.

In order to keep their power and position, there are always all kinds of people trying their best to cover up.Therefore, the reported loss situation often has a large or small gap with the real situation.Tang Shaozhe believes that the loss report of the Japanese "insurgency" in Ninghai Town is probably concealed.

However, what does this concealment have to do with the aforementioned envoys of the Japanese shogunate sending people to humiliate the envoys of the imperial court?

"Hehe, my lord is wise, there just happens to be some connection between the two." Tang Mu said with a smile, "It was someone who concealed the most important part and didn't report it, which led to the humiliation of the imperial envoys!"

At this time, Tang Shaozhe had already walked into his office - located in the reception hall on the first floor of the Xinguoshi Mansion - and waved away the waiters, before asking: "Tell me specifically."

"It turns out that this time the Japanese "raid" in Ninghai Town not only killed and injured countless soldiers and civilians, but even the official seal of the Ninghai Town Shipping Department was taken away by the Japanese pirates. But these dirty officials didn't mention it at all until they went to the Japanese country Master Gu was humiliated, so he burst out!"

"Wang Xian, you keep talking about being humiliated. What's going on?" Plane Travel Guide 1439

"I said earlier that Mr. Gu received all kinds of cold reception in the country of Japan, and finally left after negotiating with no results. It turned out that when Mr. Gu was about to board the ship and leave the country of Japan, the Japanese sent envoys to send the official seal of the Ninghai Town Ship Division I'm so shocked!" Tang Mu shook his head again and again: "Tsk tsk, it's really unimaginable that Japanese people are so unwise!"

Of course, Tang Shaozhe understood the crux of the problem. Earlier, the Muromachi shogunate said that the Japanese pirates encountered in Ninghai Town had nothing to do with the shogunate, but now they sent the stolen goods of Ninghai Town Ship Division to demonstrate. It was clearly a slap in the face!

It is impossible for any mature "government" to make such crazy and irrational actions in foreign affairs.However, Tang Shaozhe also knows that the Japanese should never use the IQ of normal people to measure them.

Compared to Tang Mu's incomprehension, in fact Tang Shaozhe really believed that no one else could do this except the Japanese.So in the end, Tang Mu's suspicion was directly and decisively dispelled by Tang Shaozhe.

"Wang Xian, you have to believe that there is nothing impossible for the Japanese in this world! They can do anything you can't imagine without hesitation, and they can do it with confidence."

Out of a certain "habitual" thinking, Tang Shaozhe did not hesitate at all when he came to the above conclusion.So Tang Mu's original suspicion disappeared under his categorical veto.In the end, no one knew that the humiliating incident that happened at the last moment before Gu Gu was about to leave Japan was a trick by the Jianing Temple.

Then Tang Mu, of course, no longer cared about why the Japanese side had a twitch and made such an unimaginable disposal. Instead, he described to Tang Shaozhe what happened in the court in detail.

The news of Zhu Di's anger could not be concealed at all, and just last night Jin Yiwei had already mobilized and started arresting people.

Due to the good cooperative relationship between Tang Shaozhe, Jinyiwei and Dongchang, the National Teacher's Office knew the latest situation immediately.

So Tang Mu's report to Tang Shaozhe was basically a summary of all the facts.It even included a lot of things that Tang Shaozhe didn't know much about, such as the various changes in the Ming Dynasty's officialdom.

"Haha, Wang Xian, according to you, the Japanese shogunate's demonstration this time is basically a big gift package when we need it most, right?"

"What my lord said is right! The unwise behavior of the Japanese people has aroused His Majesty's great anger. The Japanese "insurgency" in Ninghai Town and the subsequent incidents will definitely have an effect on the judgment of the Holy Majesty. Now, it is the turn The court is in trouble."

Tang Shaozhe rolled his eyes, and immediately understood what Tang Mu meant, and then burst out laughing "haha". The two sides tacitly did not bring up other matters, but turned to discuss the plan to prepare the army for the war against Japan.

Tang Mu was also very satisfied with the lord's reaction. Talking to a smart person is indeed a refreshing job.

"Oh? The national teacher has returned to the residence?" Almost immediately, Zhu Di and the cabinet scholars all knew that Tang Shaozhe had returned.

When there was no Tang Shaozhe in the past, Daming Kingdom also walked down smoothly.Although it seems that there are not as many achievements as now, but in detail, I have done a lot of things.

Before meeting Tang Shaozhe, Zhu Di had personally conquered several times, beating the Mongolian remnants on the grassland to the ground.

And the navy fleet led by Zheng He also completed the feat of sailing to Nanyang six times.And the army of the British Duke also took Jiaozhi into his pocket-it's just that the local political situation has always been unstable, and the turmoil has involved a lot of energy and money from the court.

The political situation in the country has always been very stable, at most it's just fighting between the King of Han and the crown prince, and from time to time there is a drama of vying for favor and succession.In addition, Daming can be said to have good weather, and the people live and work in peace and contentment.

But after Tang Shangxian appeared, it seemed as if the whole of Daming was suddenly put on the fast track of rapid development.Wave after wave of climax came one after another, and Daming's illustrious prestige showed signs of going far beyond the Han and Tang Dynasties.

The problem of border troubles that could not be solved by Zhu Di's personal expeditions to the northern part of the border has been eliminated in such a simple "one-off".Even the Grassland League was held later, which laid the best foundation for the long-term stability of the Ming Dynasty.Plane Travel Guide 1439

Without waiting for everyone to recover, they destroyed the great country of the Western Regions Bie Shibali with lightning speed, and even quelled the chaos of more than ten years in one fell swoop with the gesture of sweeping the fallen leaves with the autumn wind.

The ocean-going naval fleet, which has always been extravagant, has also become a capable naval fleet under Tang Shaozhe's transformation.Listen, the Navy Fleet has been changed into a Navy Fleet, and more than just a name has been changed.

Even the emperor was persuaded to add the Ministry of Maritime Affairs and the Ministry of Commerce in addition to the six ministries.Obviously, many of the following actions are inseparable from the cooperation of these two departments.The most incredible thing is that Master Guoshi is going to change Taizu's national policy.

I was still thinking about when it was inappropriate before, but the Japanese "insurgency" in Ninghai Town, especially the subsequent processing, completely angered Zhu Di.Ming Chengzu didn't want to discuss any more this time, he wanted Gan Gang to make a decisive decision: Tang Shangxian's transaction conditions were approved.

"I agree with your conditions. From now on, military households and artisan households in the Ming Dynasty will be able to contact and restrain them. After this generation, their descendants will be allowed to arrange their future arbitrarily. Whether they want to be soldiers or not is entirely up to them to decide. The court will not force Yes. I have agreed to your terms, what will I get in return not only from Master Guoshi?" Zhu Di, who exploded in anger, refused to hesitate any longer.

"Hahaha, I promise to satisfy His Majesty. I will hand over 3 Tang-class cruisers and 35 Han-class destroyers to Your Majesty within 71 days. In addition, I also prepared 108 sea Shenzhou for Your Majesty!" Tang Shaozhe of course Also very refreshing.
