Chapter 593.

The crowd saw this Cai Min’s intermittent narration.

This Cai Min was obviously greatly stimulated, her voice trembling.

And the monarchs and ministers can only look at each other in disbelief.

Obviously no one had expected that in just one year, this Japanese country would have reached such a state.

But the problem is that not so long ago, this Japanese country seemed to be in good weather and prospering.

How could it have become like this overnight?

Hu Guang then said, “Cai Min, what you said, can it be true?”

Cai Min with a few points of excitement said: “The genus …… is true …… grass people …… grass people would not dare to hide … …This time the grass people to come here, but also is precisely to implore the Great Ming, immediately aid …… aid …… or everything is too late, Enshu Zheng Chen people, etc., now life and death is uncertain … …beg …… for the court to rescue ……”

Said the man with tears in his eyes.

The people saw that he was so sincere, but they knew that what he said was true.

Hu Guang could not help but say, “Since this is the case, but according to …… the old man’s knowledge, the Japanese …… country has always been stable recently, how could it suddenly be so?”

Cai Min said, “At the beginning, I accompanied the Japanese king into Fusan with my teacher. The people of Fusan also gave them warm hospitality, and not only that, many Japanese, no matter how noble or lowly, admired the students and others. The people of Fusan were extremely interested in the new school, and not only the Japanese king, but also the daimyo of various places, wanted to invite their teachers to talk about the new school.”

He said this, seems to fall into memories, this is a sad face with a yearning, mouth then said: “thereafter, the new government began, but also everything is very stable, at first it is that the generals opened the sea trade order, the order of the various ports of entry, open for business, but also to make the various, welcome to the sea merchants. The effect is also very significant, many merchants, flocking to. After that, and under the order of the acres of land return, to collect the fields of the daimyo and samurai, and organize a lot of people, to each state to measure the land …….”

“This news out, but there is a lot of controversy, but although the controversy is big, but also still say the past …… and then after that, and advocate the new school, banning temples ……”

As he went on, the monarchs listened, some frowning, as if they had sensed something.

There are also people who think …… that this is not the same as the New Deal of the Great Ming Dynasty. There seems to be nothing to criticize.

I think Zheng Chen and others, still eat up the new policy ……

Cai Min, on the other hand, continued: “In addition to this, and promulgated education, commercial law and other edicts …… Just a few days ago, and issued an edict …… to build the Kyoto University Hall, who expected, this University Hall is still in the preparatory …… will suddenly change, everywhere are rebels, killing everywhere, students …… students ……”

When Cai Min said this, a few colors of fear surfaced on her face, and then she began to cry in pain, sobbing uncontrollably.

Hu Guang, who has been listening carefully, could not help but say at this time, “These initiatives, none of them are not good, not to mention, both rebellion, there must be signs, but this …… is why?”

He gave a puzzled look.

At this time, Zhang Anshi but laughed: “Hu Gong …… is also too naive, right?”

At these words, Hu Guang’s color changed.

The scene was a bit awkward for a moment, Hu Guang pursed his lips and was speechless for a while.

Fortunately, Zhang Anshi slowly paced out, breaking the awkwardness, smilingly continued, “The so-called learn from me to live, like me to die, I do not know Hu Gong heard of these words?”

Hu Guang froze, Fang was Zhang Anshi humiliated a pass, although his face changed, good in his temperament and gentle, but also not a person who is vindictive, 6 at this time to hear Zhang Anshi this, first stunned for a moment, and then could not help but say, “Still need to ask for advice.”

Zhang Anshi said, “My son Changsheng, Your Majesty and all the princes should know, right?”

Zhu nodded.

The hundred officials nodded their heads.

Zhang Anshi went on to say, “Once, I taught him to read, and he studied hard for a few days before he learned something the hard way. So one day, he whined and complained to me, saying, Father, if only there was a medicine in the world that if you took it, you could memorize the lessons.”

Zhang Anshi smiled and continued, “At that time, I beat him up.”

“Why?” Zhang Anshi looked around, self-concerned, continued with a smile, “He thinks so, because …… he wants to take a shortcut, must know that this world, whether it is reading, or Qi family, or ruling the country, or leveling the world, everyone wants to be able to take a shortcut.”

“There will be such a mind, in fact, is not surprising, after all, whether it is learning, or Qi family and rule the world, as if this Shu Road in general, the road is difficult, as difficult as climbing to heaven. I do not know how much hardship, but also do not know how many obstacles, therefore, everywhere may be dangerous, must do as if walking on thin ice, in order to have the possibility of success. I am only talking about the possibility ……”

Speaking of which, the temple was surprisingly quiet.

Many people’s hearts have doubts, and, obviously, what Zhang Anshi said, may be the gains and losses of the New Deal, and this point of view, when it comes to the New Deal, Zhang Anshi can indeed be regarded as a real expert.

Zhang Anshi patiently continued, “It is precisely because of the hardship that people subconsciously speculate. As in the reign of Wenjing, Wenjing honored the rule of doing nothing and rested with the people, which led to the great rule of the early Han Dynasty. So people forget, Wenjing, as usual, in order to weaken the vassals, against the vassals of the various counter-insurgency initiatives, also seems to have forgotten, at that time to deal with a variety of situations, Wenjing two emperors of the various measures. Then only think, the world’s affairs, as long as nothing to do, can be ruled. Only later generations seem to emulate the king of the Wenjing do nothing to rule, and how many have a good end?”

“The root cause of this is nothing more than inertia, because people are lazy, so when testing gains and losses, they often want to condense a complex matter into one or two lessons, thinking that as long as they rely on so and so, they can be so and so, blindly ignoring the different environments, regions, and moments. This new policy of the Japanese is also the same, the Japanese want to be rich and strong, need to slowly figure out, step by step, little by little to solve the troubles and hidden dangers of the present, which does not have decades of painstaking work, without the accumulation of little by little, how is it possible?”

“But who has such determination after decades of hard work? That conquering barbarians general Ashikaga Yoshitomo, can be willing to their own twenty years of hard work, and ultimately do not see any effect? But he admired the results of my Daming’s New Deal, just at this time, and Zheng Chen such a person, thinking that as long as you summarize a dime and a half of the experience of the New Deal, can be accomplished, need to know …… for the politicians and scholars of thinking, is different. Scholars behind closed doors, only to go to test the gains and losses, but do not know the current affairs, favoring the approach proposed by the scholars, in fact, precisely the most relevant to the human heart.”

Zhang Anshi in this pause, only then said: “the reason why the hearts and minds, because the scholars neglected to do the hard work, and did not think, the spread of the New Deal, is the first from the accumulation of wealth, bit by bit to cut out the hidden dangers that block the New Deal, and countless people for the reasons of struggle and hard work. However, they blindly believed that once a certain decree was issued, they could do whatever they wanted. Such scholars, look at his book, also have to, but also really have fools follow their methods to do, is not it than Zheng Chen such a person is even more stupid?”

Hu Guang: “……”

The crowd’s face at this time also can not help but start some changes, some people have a face of epiphany color, some people face entanglement, and even some people seriously think carefully.

Zhang Anshi, on the other hand, continued, “It’s just that a person like Ashikaga Yoshinobu, he’s by no means stupid, on the contrary, as far as I know, this person is the Lord of the Middle Ages. But even he such a person, but make such a stupid thing, in my opinion, in fact …… this is all the result of greed and eagerness to achieve success!”

Speaking here, Zhang Anshi sighed with seeming emotion, and then added: “People are willing to believe what they believe in order to achieve their own ends. If Ashikaga Yoshinobu came to me for advice on the New Deal, I said to him, “For the New Deal to succeed, it will take decades of hard work, decades of accumulation of wealth, decades of careful cultivation of generation after generation of talented people, and the need to prepare troops and horses and be ready to put down one rebellion after another, and even those who are opposed to you by that time may be your closest relatives, and at that time, you cannot be merciful. After accomplishing all these, only after several decades, there is a possibility of thirty to fifty percent success, but the greater probability, is the death of the body and the extermination of the clan.”

“Then …… this Ashikaga Yoshitaka, will still be willing to believe me? The same thing, he went to seek advice from Zheng Chen, but Zheng Chen told him that the new government is easy, as long as the revision of the law, as long as the promulgation of some edicts, then soon the water can be effective in just a few years. This Ashikaga Yoshitaka, who would be willing? If there is a rebellion in Liaodong, some people say that it is bitterly cold and full of different races, so if you want to eliminate all the hidden dangers, such as tens of hundreds of years of constant management by the court, you can finally eliminate all the hidden dangers. But another person said, Liaodong thing, too easy, three years time, as long as three years, can be leveled Liao. So …… are people willing to believe the former or the latter?”

Zhang Anshi said: “the difficulties of the new government, not in the people, who can know the taste, these twenty years, his majesty so immediately the son of heaven, to rule out all the difficulties and dangers, how many of the people killed, and how many civil officials and lieutenants, after the former, even so, these twenty years, I do not know how many risks encountered, only today, this decree and edict is the new political This decree and edict is the result of the new government, because a thing, done, and ultimately through the decree and edict to be confirmed, not because of the edict and law, as long as issued down, can be water to the canal. So …… this Japanese domestic disorder, in fact, has long been doomed, what can be strange?”

When the crowd heard this, no matter how complex the mood was just now, at this time, they all revealed bitter smiles.

Even Zhu Di slowly worked out the flavor and couldn’t help but smile.

On the contrary, Hu Guang seems to be still a little reluctant, then said: “But some days ago, clearly …… the news of the Japanese …… are very good …… ”

Zhang Anshi said, “This is another problem, Mr. Hu, I have said long ago that other people’s words are not to be trusted, and this is true of the gentry, as well as the merchants. In fact, it is precisely because there is so much good news from the merchants’ reports that I have concluded that this Japanese civil unrest has reached the point of no delay.”

Hu Guang frowned, “Why?”

Zhang Anshi said, “It is very simple, the opening of the sea trade, a large number of sea merchants have arrived in Japan, from which profiteering, if not so profiteering, this merchants, and how would be so joyful to praise the new policy of the Japanese, it can be seen that the most direct beneficiaries of the new policy of the Japanese, precisely these sea merchants.”

“The increase of trade is both good and bad. The Japanese barren island country, the island does not have too many specialties, production skills, and far less than my Daming, now is the sea merchants gathered, then there must be a large number of sea merchants, will be my Daming’s various treasures, transported to the Japanese, but also inevitably cause countless outflow of silver and gold from the Japanese country, that is to say, the larger the scale of such a trade, not only will not make the Japanese country more affluent, but also directly destroy the production of the Japanese country, so that a large number of people …… completely lose their livelihood, the only benefit, in addition to my Daming merchants, is a small portion of the Japanese merchants rely on the importation of my Daming goods, and the real victims, but the Japanese countless civilians and people, people only know that the sea trade can bring wealth, but do not know, the world’s wealth, is constant, my Daming’s wealth from the sea, then the wealth of one side will certainly be damaged. There is bound to be a party that will be damaged.”

“What is so strange about the merchants of the sea, who have gained huge profits, praising the new policy of the Japanese and praising all of them? In any case, what was gained was not theirs, and they were not deceived; the sea trade was indeed expanded, and there were indeed many merchants of the Japanese who made a great deal of money from it! Even …… the king of the Japanese also from it, by means of taxation, got the benefit. Just …… their words, only said half right, the other half of the news, for these sea merchants, they neither care, also will not care, and even …… for them, they only need to deal with a small number of Japanese merchants in the ports, the others, with them what does it matter to them?”

Hu Guang slightly opened his eyes wide, with a look of sudden realization, and subconsciously said, “The original …… original is actually so, this …… this …… …Hey …… it seems that people can’t be trusted.”

Looking at Hu Guang with a look of surprise and shock, Zhang Anshi frankly looked at him and said: ”Indeed. But Hu Gong, other things can be ignored first, now the problem is that the Japanese domestic chaos, and the court-appointed king of Japan, suffered a rebel threat, a large number of Ming scholars, but also the life and death of uncertainty. Not to mention many of the ports, there are a large number of Han merchants, most likely, personal safety and property have suffered threats.”

Said here, he swept a glance at the crowd, then said: “Your Majesty, gentlemen, now the situation, has been urgent, these rebels rebel, and even threaten the safety of the Japanese king of my Daming appointed, if my Daming indifferent, once the king of the Japanese was killed, this teach the face of the imperial court, as well as countless Chinese merchants and the life and death of the Han people in the end of the place? Therefore, I suggest …… that the Daming navy should be ready at any time, and a model battalion drawn out should also immediately run to the Songjiang port and wait for the day.”

“On the other hand, we should try to contact the Japanese king by all means! If the Japanese king is dead, then we should try to find his descendants and re-register them, and then ask them to send out a letter of request immediately, imploring the army of the Great Ming Dynasty to disembark and assist in the suppression of the bandits and the suppression of the ungodly. When Emperor Taizu was alive, he had decreed that the Japanese were not to be conquered, and he had granted the Ashikaga family a golden book and a golden seal. If they fail to do so, will the annual tribute paid by the Japanese become a joke to the world? It is only right that we, the Heavenly Soldiers of the Ming Dynasty, should protect the Japanese nation. Your Majesty, now is the time to make up your mind at once; if you delay any longer, all will be lost.”

The words were so deafening that the scene went quiet for a moment, and everyone present seemed to be pulled into another shock all at once.

To be honest, raising Zheng Chen and other people to make the Japanese country in chaos, and between the backhand, and in the name of protecting the king of the Japanese country, quickly enter the Japanese country, this hand …… is really spicy.

But it’s just that everything is so well known, and everything seems to make sense, that it’s impossible to find a single word of rebuttal.

Zhu Di came back to his senses, but his eyes were obviously brighter. It could be said that his heart was being revitalized at this time, so subconsciously, he glanced at Crown Prince Zhu Gaoqi.

Father and son, there is already a tacit understanding.

Speaking of the beginning, Zhu Gaoqi had the Japanese and Joseon countries on his mind, and now the time had come.

At this time, Zhu Gaoqi, can not help but sincerely admire their own uncle, this guy …… in the end with whom to learn ah, always able to come up with some unexpected ways!

Thinking of this, Zhu Gaoqi subconsciously glanced at his father again.

And Zhu Di, naturally, has been clear, this into the Japanese, the relationship is their own several grandchildren’s future, although they are not the first eldest grandson, but after all, Zhu Di’s bloodline, Zhu Gaoqi heartache them, Zhu Di and why not heartache it?

Now that everything is in order, it’s time to decide.

This is the pie that God has dropped, for his grandchildren.

Zhu Di said, “Order Zhu Jun, Zhu Zhan Jun, Zhu Zhan Yong, and Zhu Zhan Yin to oversee the affairs of the Japanese, and then issue another decree to order Zhu Yong to be the Great General of the Rebellion, in control of the naval division, and to lead the Model Battalion of the Left Road of Zhi Li, and to swiftly cross the sea to conquest the Japanese miscreants.”

Zhu Di paused and said: “Things are urgent, and now, the king of the Japanese life and death is not known, the king of the Japanese Ashikaga Yoshitomo, always respectful, I can not sit back and ignore his life and death, and then ordered Zhang Yoking for the swordsman general, the rate of an elite troops, the first raided into the Japanese, to find the whereabouts of Ashikaga Yoshitomo, to protect his relatives!”

When this statement was made, all the ministers seemed to feel …… that this seemed to be very reasonable.

Zhu added, “Be sure to do your best to protect Zheng Chen as well as the Han merchants and others, and leave it at that.”

The ministers said, “Obey the decree.”

Zhu Di red light, in fact, this time, really should show a little mourning, after all,…… many people still do not know whether it is dead or alive.

But there is no way, Zhu Di really can not hide the joy in his heart, or is old, some things inside, really can not hide.

He tried his best to suppress the smile at the corner of his lips, and turned to say, “In this matter, the Crown Prince will decide, I only need the result, how to enter the army, grain and grass collection matters, do not have to report to me. Within three months, I want the civil unrest in Japan to be pacified.”

Zhu Gaoqi heart secretly happy, but he also knows that now this scene is not a suitable time to be happy, face put on a look of deep sorrow, said: “Son of the minister, respectfully comply with your majesty’s will.”
