Chapter 231 Dongying also has territorial waters?(2/4)

Fang Shiyu looked at Li Fangyuan and laughed softly. The Li Fangyuan in front of him was not an ordinary person. To be precise, this guy is equivalent to a killer.

According to the information obtained by the Ming Dynasty, before Li Chenggui became king, the biggest obstacle was that Zheng Mengzhou was assassinated by Li Fangyuan, which allowed Li Chenggui to become king without any more troubles.

However, since Li Chenggui's throne was independent and even though he received the seal of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang could even be unwilling to recognize Li Chenggui's throne in order to express his disapproval of Li Chenggui's throne.

The seal given to Korea is the same as the one used by Goryeo

"Qingshen is naughty, Your Highness is more responsible!" Li Fangyuan smiled. The Fengtian Palace Square was crowded with people, and it was crowded with people. It was impossible to see who was around.

Zhu Ziyi, as a princess, was with Lao Zhu's side and sat on a high place, and Fang Shiyu became a drinker.

As for Princess Qingshen and others, they could only hide behind and watch the prosperous scene. The country came to pay tribute and the prosperous times.

"It's not considered a naughty one. North Korea has paid so many tributes this year. I will ask His Majesty to give the prince more purchase amount later!"

Fang Shiyu smiled. At this time, a man dressed in a strange manner, with small braids and legs in the crowd, and one person could occupy the road of four people.

"Japanese people?" Fang Shiyu said suspiciously.

"Your Highness is interested in them?" Li Fangyuan hesitated. How could Fang Shiyu be born in the palace?

With a smile, Fang Shiyu said, "I guess there will be a good show later. Let's go together?"

He raised his wine glass and signaled to Li Fangyuan. Li Fangyuan bowed and said, "Your Highness invites you, how dare the vassal ministers refuse!"

Fang Shiyu took Li Fang far away to the place where Zhu Yuanzhang sat.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was lying on the dragon chaise, beside him, Zhu Ziyi and Xu Miaojin were helping him peel fruits and pour wine.

After all, Zhu Yuanzhang's harem is old, and those who can show off and have a certain status can only let Fang Shiyu's wife support the scene.

Just as Zhu Yuanzhang had a bite of imperial wine, suddenly, the Japanese robe-legged legs came to the bottom of the stairs where Zhu Yuanzhang sat.

There were no messy words, nor any bullshit excuses, and he knelt directly under Zhu Yuanzhang and kowtowed: "General Ashikaga Yoshiman, the envoy of the Emperor of Japan, came to question His Majesty the Emperor of the Celestial Empire!"

"Yangdong? Are you on the list of invitations?" Zhu Yuanzhang narrowed his eyes. He had no interest in Japan, really no interest.

Japan is a small country floating overseas. The people do not accept the king's transformation and do not know the etiquette and are full of cruelty. When Zhu Yuanzhang issued an order to take Japan as a vassal, the envoy he sent was directly chopped off by the Japanese.

Although Ashikaga Yoshima and Daming and Daming were connected in secret, accepted the enthronement of the Ming Dynasty and respected Daming as the sect leader, this was done behind the scenes.

And Ashikaga Yoshiman did not make it public, but he just used it to enthrone it.

But who is Zhu Yuanzhang? Suzhou is still the area with the most heavy taxes in the Ming Dynasty. Old Zhu is very revenge. He has no good impression of Japan, so of course he is unwilling to give them good fruits.

This question indeed shocked Ashikaga Yoshima's envoy and said in surprise: "Report to His Majesty the Great Emperor of the Celestial Empire, my general heard that His Majesty the Great Emperor held a banquet on the New Year's Day, and sent an envoy to congratulate him!"

Zhu Yuanzhang glanced at him and said, "There is no need to congratulate you, go back."

The envoy's heart skipped a beat, lowered his head and organized words. After thinking for a long time, he said, "Report to His Majesty the Emperor of the Celestial Empire, my general sent three hundred servants, one thousand gold, and eight hundred horses!"

"Please collect it with His Majesty the Great Emperor!"

Zhu Yuanzhang's face was heavy and gloomy, and said in a calm and uncertain manner: "Take things back together. Since they are not on the invitation list or in the tribute, our great power of the Celestial Empire is missing your Japanese pony?"

Fighting against the Mongolian cavalry, the decisive battle in the desert, the Ming Dynasty did not lack military and horses, but really did not lack. The entire Ming Dynasty cavalry had at least 200,000, all of them were in the north.

As for Japan's pony, it has no benefit to China. It doesn't matter if it is used as a mule. It doesn't have the strength to use it as a mule.

Zhu Yuanzhang was so happy that the envoy sent by Ashikaga Yoshiman was so panicked and stuttered, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"What do you want?" Zhu Yuanzhang stared at the Japanese envoy in front of him. Seeing that he had not left, he spoke out: "Since you are here, then say, what are your generals asking you to bring!"

The Japanese envoy felt like he was given a general amnesty and quickly spoke: "The General hopes that through this tribute, the friction between the two sides can be alleviated and more people can be spared from suffering!"

"I hope that His Majesty the Emperor of the Celestial Dynasty will stop the actions at sea. Without the permission of the general, you must not drive the ships to the coast of Japan."

"The coast of Japan? When did it become the coast of Japan? We only know that the world is the great land of the king, and the shores of the land are the king's ministers!"

"You in Japan also claim to have a sea? Yes, that's also from the Ming Dynasty. Where will I go to the ships? When will it be your general's turn to point fingers?"

Zhu Yuanzhang scolded angrily.

Zhu Yuanzhang knew about Fang Shiyu being bombarded by the coast of Japan on the sea.

Zhu Yuanzhang also knew about Sheng Yong and Tie Xuan bombarding the coast of Japan at sea, but what are these? They have nothing to do with him, Zhu Yuanzhang.

What does the life and death of Japanese people have to do with him?

Just as he said: I am a commoner in Huaiyou, so why should I add to the world and me?

I have not taken care of my own people, so I have no intention of taking care of other people's people.

The Japanese envoy knelt on the ground and hesitated in his heart: "If we can be at peace and share peace, our general is willing to work with His Majesty the Emperor to suppress the Japanese pirates at the sea!"

"Prevent the Japanese pirates from raging!"

"If not..."

Zhu Yuanzhang listened to the voice of the Japanese envoys and chuckled: "The Ming Dynasty warships are more than a thousand and more than 100,000 naval soldiers. If you want to destroy the Japanese pirates at sea, why do you need Japan to help?"

"What if it doesn't happen? What do you dare?" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed in his stomach.

It’s not that he looked down on Japan, but he really looked down on it. The Ming Dynasty’s biggest concern was still the northern grassland. Japan really did not pose a threat to the Ming Dynasty.

If you want to deal with Japan, you don’t even need the entire Ming Dynasty warships and ships to be dispatched. As long as half of them are sent, it will be enough to block the entire coastal area, making Japan unable to move forward and collapse and collapse!

Unfortunately, the recent fiscal budget of the Ming Dynasty is too tight and it is really incapable of fighting overseas!

"Your Majesty the Great Emperor, do you not want to live in peace with Japan?" The Japanese envoy shouted. If this is true, then his envoy this time would have become a joke.

They didn't like you in Japan at all.

Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and said, "Fork out this thing!"

The guests watched the Japanese envoys begged out, and everyone looked at Zhu Yuanzhang in a panic look, feeling disappointed, surprised, worried, and complex and changeable.

The demands of each vassal state are different, so what they want is naturally different.

Fang Shiyu pulled Li Fangyuan and witnessed all the famous scenes of Zhu Yuanzhang scolding Japanese envoys.

"This..." Li Fangyuan looked at the Japanese envoy who was forked out.

Fang Shiyu smiled and said, "The Ming Dynasty is not short of tribute. Besides, the status of the Ming Dynasty in the Upper Kingdom does not need to be recognized by them in Japan! They will pay the price for today's impulse!"

Fang Shiyu said without any obscurely that he would make Japan pay the price for what he is doing today, but he never said that this matter was caused by him.

He was so idle that he walked along the coast of others. The cannons roared for three days, resounding across the sky, which was shocking. The Japanese people were dissatisfied and wanted to appeal, hoping that Lao Zhu could come forward to settle the matter.

And what did they lose? In fact, if they join the tribute system of the Ming Dynasty, they will not lose at all, but will make some profits.

Unfortunately, when Zhu Yuanzhang heard that Fang Shiyu was going to send fifteen tribunals to Japan, he directly kicked out the fifteen countries that were not conquered by the Emperor Ming Dynasty.

He was ready. He wanted to wait underground and wait for his children and grandchildren to go down. Each of them was an overseas prince with real power.

Zhu Yuanzhang took great pains to promote Han culture. After 90 years of change of hands, cultural heritage broke down. Most of the Han cultures passed down from later generations were repaired in the Ming Dynasty according to the old Han and Tang systems and repaired them little by little.

If there were no three hundred years of recovery of the Ming Dynasty, it would be difficult to say what China would become.

At this time, Japan wanted to seek peace, join the tribute system, and become the tribute state of the Ming Dynasty. In terms of law, the Ming Dynasty would not launch troops against him and maintain his dominance.

What is this not a fool?

Zhu Zhi had already regarded Japan as his treasure, practiced his bow and horse every day, and was preparing to lead his troops and conquer his kingdom when he went to war.

Fang Shiyu said: "The Ming Dynasty warships have more than 2,000, and the number of more than 100 large warships is growing rapidly every year. I think it is no longer possible for Japan to say whether the coastal safety of Japan is safe!"

"The Celestial Empire says safety, that is safety. The Celestial Empire says it is unsafe, so he is unsafe. What does the prince think?" Fang Shiyu's lips raised slightly and said calmly.

Li Fangyuan felt dizzy and dizzy all over. He looked at Fang Shiyu and said, "Your Highness, on the way to the Ming Dynasty, I passed by the military camp and the City Defense Department, and saw the firearms of the Celestial Army. He really looked at others!"

"I don't know what your Highness..."

Li Fangyuan was confused that the Ming Dynasty seemed to be a little different from other dynasties in history. In recent years, the Ming Dynasty has not made any moves, and others don’t know about it, but North Korea is still very clear about the Ming Dynasty’s actions.

The Ming Dynasty court rectified its internal affairs for several years and built a capital in the north. It was too poor to have financial resources and was unable to send troops to fight. Once the Ming Dynasty's short-term goals were completed.

Wouldn't the magical firearms and cannons that Li Fangyuan saw today be listed on their North Korea's heads?

Fang Shiyu shook his head and said, "That thing is meaningless. North Korea wants that, so why don't you want me to guarantee me. What's more, the firearm can protect yourself if you play well. If you don't play well, it will cause fire to burn yourself!"

Fang Shiyu's face was calm, and he was selling firearms? Fang Shiyu had this idea, but it was definitely not now. The Hongwu Twenty-four-type muskets equipped in the Ming Dynasty were completely three hundred years ahead of this era.

The new flintlock rifle still has a long way to go, although the Ming Dynasty has been working on reloading rifles recently, striving to break through technical difficulties and be equipped with the entire army.

But then we have to wait until the firearms that have been eliminated can be sold after being equipped with the entire army. The military-industrial power of the Ming Dynasty must be far ahead of the world within at least five hundred years, so as to ensure the interests of the Ming Dynasty in all parts of the world, ensure the cultural and economic colonization of the Ming Dynasty, and complete the grand blueprint in Fang Shiyu's heart.

Li Fangyuan smiled awkwardly and said, "What promise can Your Highness make?"

"There is no rush to talk about this matter, but the prince can discuss with the King of Korea when he returns. If possible, North Korea can completely give up its armed forces and the Celestial Empire will take over the coastal defense and local defense."

"The Ming Dynasty's soldiers, the Ming Dynasty's firearms, artillery, and the Ming Dynasty's warships can completely protect the entire North Korea from invasion by any force!"

Fang Shiyu said with a smile that there are many countries coming to pay tribute this time, but only North Korea is the only one who really caught Fang Shiyu's attention.

Fang Shiyu really had no feelings for this place that was so barren that it was exploding. She was tasteless and a pity to throw it away. What he had to do was to let the Ming Dynasty suck some blood on North Korea as much as possible.

Leave no trace, let them give their necks with gratitude and be sucked by the Ming Dynasty.

If the major plan that North Korea's national defense can be successfully handed over to the Ming Dynasty, then North Korea will really become a lamb that can be slaughtered by the Ming Dynasty at any time.

Li Fangyuan laughed and said, "Your Highness is joking! I have not bowed to Your Majesty this time, so as not to lose the etiquette. I will bow to Your Majesty now!"

Li Fangyuan changed the subject and disappeared directly from Fang Shiyu. From beginning to end, Fang Shiyu did not give him the opportunity to give him the purpose of this tribute.
