In the Kyushu Continent, six kingdoms compete for supremacy, and feudal states are vacillating.
Monsters and monsters emerge in an endless stream, and all kinds of conspiracies and schemes are spread across all fields. Small countries will not know they will die if they are not careful, and big countries will still fall into a trap if they are not careful.
Honglu Temple is a place for diplomacy on the surface, but there are countless secret confrontations.
In the Song mansion, Deputy Envoy Sima Junshi walked all the way to the deepest part of the mansion and pushed the door open. "Mr. Yan, Yan Kuan started packing. It seems that the news about Wu Dynasty's visit to the Ming Dynasty is true!"
Wealth can communicate with the gods. People in the Song Dynasty can understand the public news of various countries faster than ordinary people. More detailed things need to be investigated by the Imperial City Secretary.
Yan Yan frowned slightly, "What do you think Wu Ren wants to do?"
Winter break is coming, and all businesses are in decline. Normally, at this time, warriors, even if they have actions, are mostly directed at home. Such activities as visiting the Ming Dynasty were only done three times in the thirty-four years of the previous dynasty, once to the Ming Dynasty and twice to the Song Dynasty. However, There were warning signs these three times, and he couldn't help but think deeply about his abnormal behavior now.
Sima Junshi shook his head, "The relationship between the three dynasties has always been hostile. The last time Wu Ren took the initiative to contact the Ming Dynasty was eleven years ago. The situation was clear at that time, and we knew what Wu Ren wanted to do, but now Jun Shi really can't guess it?"
Sima Junshi clenched his hands into fists.
Eleven years ago, King Ning of the Ming Dynasty rebelled. Millions of rebels came out from Jiangxi. The Japanese pirates at sea blocked Songhu Port. This was the best opportunity for the Song Dynasty to seek Xuzhou's seaport, but they did not want to let the soldiers release the enemy. Emperor Zhengde of the Ming Dynasty was bold. Huaihai laid a siege net and swallowed up the Song Dynasty's 300,000 troops in one fell swoop, trapping the remaining more than 100,000 remnant troops on the seaside.
At that time, the warriors took the initiative to send envoys to the Ming Dynasty, just to join forces to slaughter the Song people.
In the end, after suffering 460,000 casualties and paying a price of 1.8 million yuan, the Song Dynasty withdrew its troops from the Huaihai area.
"If you can't guess it, stop guessing and wait for the news!"
Yan Yan felt very confused. Sima Jun really couldn't guess it, and he couldn't guess it either.
When the Ming Dynasty visited the Wu Dynasty, I could still find some reasons for it: war horses, salt, furs, etc. I could still think of some things.
But the Wu Dynasty made an unusual visit to the Ming Dynasty. Not to mention that the people of Song Dynasty were dumbfounded, even the people of Ming Dynasty could not figure out the reason.
no way!
Since the entire territory was sealed off, the Wu Dynasty itself had entered a state of seclusion to avoid disaster. Regardless of eleven years ago, the military people, whether active or passive, had not participated in the chaos in the Central Plains for almost thirty years.
If it hadn't been for the ferocious tiger's rise four years ago, many people would have forgotten how big a country there was in the northern border of Kyushu.
With this sudden move, they can guess that there is a ghost!
Dong dong dong...
At this time, there was a knock on the door. The two people in the room looked at each other. Sima Junshi pushed the door open and asked, "What's the matter?"
"The Wu Dynasty's inner government has just issued a notice that the Wu Dynasty intends to open the household market to the outside world. After the spring comes, Ganquan, Longmenyi, Liyang, Lingxian, Changqing, and the five border gates will be opened to the Song caravans!" The document lowered its head and repeated, the words There is a hint of panic in it.
"What?"
Sima Junshi shouted and quickly snatched the official document from the clerk's hand.
Is Wu Ren going crazy?
Ganquan, Longmen, Liyang, Lingxian, and Changqing, from west to north, are all important checkpoints on the Wu-Song border. Once these five checkpoints are opened, even if only merchants come in and out, they will have a huge impact on the Wu Dynasty.
Not to mention that the Wu Dynasty also wanted to open a household market. Who in Kyushu didn't know that the Wu Dynasty regarded the border household market as a forbidden area and would not allow other countries to get involved. It is difficult for you to check the information.
Nowadays, warriors visit the Ming Dynasty and later open an account in the market. What else is this if not crazy?
"what happened?"
Sima Junshi shouted, and Yan Yan couldn't sit still anymore and immediately walked to the door.
"Mr. Yan, you can read it yourself, I want to calm down!" Sima Junshi handed over the document while leaning weakly against the door.
Who in Kyushu doesn’t want to eat this fat piece of meat from Hushi?
Even though the trade between Wu and Song was huge, the people of Wu were also thieves. As long as the goods did not require people, the Wu Dynasty was very strict about matters within the country.
"What a big change, is it related to this year's Jinshi restructuring?" Yan Yan closed the official document, "But this is not right!"
There are reasons for any change, not to mention the directional policies of the past.
Is there no reason for such a nearly 180-degree change?
I was wondering if there was any major event in the Wu Dynasty this year, maybe it was women participating in the imperial examination, but could this be related to the current incident?
After calming down the distracting thoughts in his mind, Sima Junshi pointed to the official document and said, "We still know too little. The key is now, do we need this quota?"
The first time for women to become Jinshi was the Later Tang Dynasty, followed by the Liao Dynasty, and now the Wu Dynasty. It is very unlikely that the national policy will be changed because of women becoming Jinshi.
"Yes, why not? Even if we don't want it, those trading houses will still want it. It doesn't matter what the warriors want to do, just do it first!"
Can Yan Yan solve it?
No, any of the trading houses that entered the Wu Dynasty with the Sui coins would not peek into the Wu Dynasty market, and which one would not peek into the interests of the household market.
If he dares to stop him today, tomorrow the elderly at home will ask him to kneel at the ancestral tablet.
Besides, the fighting between you and me is interesting. The people of Song Dynasty are not afraid of Wu Ren's moves, but they are afraid that Wu Ren will be as autistic as in the past.
…
At night, a strong wind swept the ground, and wisps of ice hung on the eaves, making a light sound under the strong wind.
Xia Abacus walked out of the front door of a large house and looked at the flying snow in the sky. "The wind is blowing. I just don't know where the wind will blow in the end?"
"Winter is gone and spring is full of flowers. I have been dormant for forty years and I have no time left!" Da Sima, who was seeing off the guests, stood aside.
"Yeah, there's no time!"
Forty years ago, the two of them were still teenagers, as high-spirited as the Wu Dynasty that conquered mountains and rivers.
The slogan "Conquer Three Koreas first, then go to Xuzhou" poured into the chest of every young warrior like chicken blood.
At the end of summer of that year, the Wu Dynasty's army came out from the border, first went north to Youzhou, and then crossed the Yalu River. Before the onset of winter, they swept across three Koreas. In less than four months, they reached the Bohai Sea and only had to go to Jeju. The island can turn the Bohai Sea into an inland sea. Xuzhou will be theirs by joining forces with the sea and land.
But that year, the Liao, Song, and Ming kingdoms seemed to have taken epileptic drugs. Millions of troops braved the severe cold to invade the Wu Dynasty.
Half a year into the dream, three years into the dream, everything is in vain!
"Everything depends on next year. If the Song people really take action, I will have to gamble again for the rest of my life. Do you want to gamble?" Xia Abacus looked at Da Sima.
"Bet, why not bet? Although I don't have much contact with Fang Fang, I have noticed in just half a day. As long as I dig into Fang Fang, the Wu Dynasty will definitely change greatly!"
Da Sima has lived for seventy years, and has seen countless plans from various powerful countries. He has no experience in equations, but his set of things has obviously become a system, and the empress is behind it. They only need to check and inspect the goods, and it may be possible.
They were a little anxious, but if they didn't take a gamble, they would really have no time!
