Chapter Four Hundred and Thirty Nine: Sai Weng Lost His Horse

"The guilty minister Zhou Ren has seen the champion of the Celestial Dynasty!"

Outside Nagoya City, when they saw Wang Bing coming to greet him, the Japanese Emperor Yangcheng, who had long been 'trained' by Nuerhachi, docilely, hurriedly stepped forward and behaved in front of Wang Bing.

Kneel down.

"Haha, if you know your mistakes, you can correct them, but your good will never fade. Your Highness, please get up!"

Wang Bing showed enough goodwill towards the former emperor who had "recognized his interest" in reducing his imperial title. After he knelt down and saluted, he stretched out his hand to pull him up and said softly to comfort him.

In fact, compared to his descendant Hirohito who was the culprit who invaded China hundreds of years later, this Zhou Ren can be regarded as a proper "laying gun" person.

After all, in this era, he is just a humanoid stamp who goes around to support the daimyo lords in order to have enough food.

So let alone the invasion of the Ming Dynasty, even if two daimyo's dogs fight, he has no power to deal with it.

"The sinner thanks the champion!"

After being helped up by Wang Bing, Zhou Ren bowed and thanked him again. Whether it was true or false, at least his attitude was low enough.

"Haha, Your Highness, you are also burdened by your ministers, but you can be forgiven for it! From now on, when you govern the country, remember to be loyal and serve the Ming Dynasty, and don't make the same mistake again!"

Patting the former emperor on the shoulder, Wang Bing smiled and comforted him with a meaningful smile.

"Uh, sin... I, I must keep it in mind!"

Zhou Ren, who didn't hear the hidden meaning of Wang Bing's words, quickly changed his name. However, the guards and nobles who were still kneeling on the ground couldn't help but their eyes lit up after hearing Wang Bing's words.

"Your Highness must be tired after traveling all the way. Why not take a rest first, and I will host a banquet for Your Highness in the evening!"

Finally, after asking the Japanese royal family, public nobles and others who were still kneeling on the ground to get up, Wang Bing had someone lead them to a prearranged place to rest.



"Your Majesty, these are the 'Three Divine Artifacts' of the Emperor of Japan that were captured by the slaves. Please accept them!"

After Zhou Ren and other members of the Japanese royal family and public ministers left, Nuerhachi, Wumantai, and Baiyinli each held a wooden box and presented it to Wang Bing.

"How dare you call this a crude piece of junk a divine weapon? Didn't I say you were deceived by a Japanese?"

Looking at the pile of junk in the three wooden boxes, Li Chengming, who thought it was some peerless treasure, couldn't help but look disgusted.

"Reply to my uncle, there shouldn't be any lies! The Japanese did bring a bunch of fakes to fool the slave at first, but the slave used the Japanese Emperor's three fingers to trick him out, hehe!"

Seeing that Li Chengming expressed doubts about the authenticity of these 'three artifacts', Nuerhachi quickly told the detailed process of obtaining these three artifacts.

"Well, although taking care of the Japanese Emperor and his family disrupted some of my plans, I thought it was a good idea to let him reduce his imperial title."

Wang Bing has no doubts about the authenticity of the Japanese "three artifacts". After all, it is just a symbol inherited by the Japanese royal family. Whether it is true or false is not that important, as long as they are used.

It’s done!

"You should go and have some rest first. In the evening, invite your brothers and generals to join us for the banquet. Think of it as my lord congratulating you!"

Finally, after waving Nuerhachi and the others away, Wang Bing once again considered what to do with Zhou Ren, the former emperor.



"Your Majesty... Your Highness, congratulations to Your Majesty!"

While Wang Bingsi was still thinking about the placement of Shuhito, the former Japanese emperor, Shuhito, who had just been arranged by Wang Bing to live in Nagoya Nimaru, welcomed Konoe Maekyu, Kujo, Takaji and others.

Congratulations from several 'owners'.

"Haha, several members of the Qing family, now I... I have become a prisoner of the Ming army, what else can I celebrate?"

Facing the congratulations from the Wu She family, Zhou Ren smiled wryly and shook his head.

"There is a saying in the Ming Dynasty that 'a blessing in disguise is a blessing in disguise'! Your Highness, did you remember that just now the champion said the words 'ruling the country in the future'!"

Seeing Yi Yiren's confused look, Konoe Maekaku quickly spoke up to remind him.

"Uh, Aiqing, Aiqing means, could it be..."

Being reminded like this by Konoe Maekyu, Zhou Ren couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and an idea that he had never dared to think about before suddenly popped up in his heart.

"Your Highness, judging from the intentions of this champion, it is very likely that Your Highness will actually govern a country in the future. However, the size of this country may be..."

"If you can truly govern a country, no matter how small it is, it will be better than being hungry before, right?"

Before Konoe could finish his worried words, Zhou Ren couldn't help but spin around in circles with excitement on his face.

"Also, from now on, His Highness, the lord of the country, may have to follow the example of Ryukyu and Korea, accept the Ming Dynasty as the suzerain country, and accept the canonization of the Ming Dynasty."

Seeing the excitement on Zhou Ren's face, the guards in front of him, who were obviously here to congratulate Zhou Ren, now gave him a 'vaccination' in advance.

You know, although the 'Emperor' before Zhou Ren was in name only, he was still an 'Emperor' after all, wasn't he? Now not only has he been demoted one level for no reason, but he also has to act as a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty. For most people, this is really unacceptable.

It must be acceptable.

"If you can really govern a country, even if you regard the Ming Dynasty as your suzerain country, it is reasonable!"

However, to the surprise of Konoe Maekyu and others, when they heard that it was possible to rule a country and become a powerful leader, Shu Ren did not take their worries to heart at all.

As the saying goes, 'A man is poor but his ambition is short, while a horse is thin and hairy'! They still underestimated the attraction of a powerful leader to Zhou Ren, the former emperor.

There is no way. For an emperor whose ancestors for more than 18 generations have been struggling with poverty and food and clothing, who cannot even afford to die, and who have no hope of being the master of the country, a country with real power

The main attraction is not comparable to the status of a short-term emperor.

"Your Highness is wise!"

Seeing Shu Ren's performance, Konoe Maekyu and others couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

To be honest, since the rise of the martial arts and the era of "army all over the world", the emperor has lived a miserable life, and the public nobles who follow the emperor have also lived in great hardship.

Therefore, seeing that Zhou Ren, the former emperor, had the opportunity to rule a country, and that people like them could follow the chickens and dogs to heaven and gain real power again, they were naturally secretly overjoyed.

"Sir, I... I remember that among the gifts I brought out this time, there seems to be a set of Ming Dynasty clothes. Please help me find it quickly. I will wear this Ming Dynasty clothes to attend the banquet of the Champion Marquis today!"

In the end, Shuren, who was attracted by becoming the powerful person in charge of a country, quickly ordered his female imperial concubine, Konoe Maeko's daughter Konoe Maeko, to look for the Ming Dynasty suit he brought with him when he left the palace.

Clothing comes.
