Yao Guangxiao never asks about the process.
In fact, he had received Ye Yueqing's letter a long time ago, but did he care? No, he didn't care at all.
Ye Yueqing's words in the letter were also very tactful, saying that if possible, she would take care of him.
Yao Guangxiao said: No.
In his eyes, the Fengyang Zhao family were just outsiders. His understanding of Zhu Ying's character made him understand that he would naturally not care about this.
If you want to take care of it, then get the credit first. At worst, it will be fine if you deduct less when the time comes.
"Master, why are you alone in the tent on such a big day?"
The person who came in to ask questions was Zhao Pang, the official of Goryeo Zhimi. Wei Guang was having fun with the soldiers in the military camp. As a civil servant, he was quite out of place in such a military camp.
Although he is famous for being fat, in fact Zhao Pang is not fat at all, but rather thin.
Relatively speaking, civil servants these days are rarely fat, unless they are the kind of local officials who are not concerned with political affairs and only care about having fun every day.
In fact, as far as body shape is concerned, whether it is in the Ming Dynasty, or in other countries such as Goryeo, as long as the local governor is fat, it goes without saying that he must be a corrupt official. He will kill nine out of ten without fail.
Because the local governor is a very tiring position, just inspecting the area under his jurisdiction is a lot of consumption, and it is basically impossible to gain weight.
Unless you have some kind of obesity disease, you can gain weight just by drinking water.
Such diseases generally rarely occur. Moreover, as far as the Ming Dynasty is concerned, one has to pay attention to one's body shape, which means that if you are a fat man, no matter how high your literature is, you will never be the number one scholar.
In other countries, they are even more particular. The overall appearance is a big plus.
On the first day of the Lunar New Year, although it was extremely cold here in Korea, the sky was endless and dotted with stars.
The soldiers outside were setting up bonfires everywhere and dancing and celebrating.
In all the vassal states and tributary states of the Ming Dynasty, influenced by the Central Plains Dynasty, Zhengdan is an indispensable major festival.
This is the influence that the Central Plains Dynasty has had on all surrounding countries for thousands of years.
Even on the grasslands, deserts, and Western Regions, people of different ethnic groups and different skin colors are all singing, dancing, and celebrating on this day.
Even if the two countries are hostile, they will stop fighting and give the soldiers their only time to rest.
There are many names for calendars, but they are all roughly the same.
In the seventeenth year of Hongwu's reign, Zhu Yuanzhang set up an observatory in Jiming Mountain, Nanjing, and ordered Dr. Yuan Tong to study the calendar, which was named "Da Tong".
The current name of the Ming Dynasty calendar is the Datong calendar.
For foreign ministers and foreigners, the revision of the calendar does not matter much. The twenty-four solar terms and the heavenly stems and earthly branches are very complicated to learn. Anyway, you only need to know when Zhengdan is.
Even now in various parts of the Ming Dynasty, there are still some differences in some festivals in some places. For example, there are differences in the small New Year's Day in the north and the south, and this has continued to later generations. This is due to customs.
"The poor monk is calculating what the weather will be like in the coming year."
Yao Guangxiao looked up at Fatty Zhao and said slowly.
Fatty Zhao couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart.
In fact, Fatty Zhao also knew about Master Daoyan.
Zhu Di, the king of Yan who guarded the border area of Ming Dynasty, was relatively close to Goryeo, just past Liaodong.
And Dao Yan was originally a military advisor to King Yan.
Dao Yan's reputation is not obvious, but the reputation of Yan King Zhu Di can be said to be resounding throughout Liaodong, the desert, and the grassland.
On the Goryeo side, it was even more thunderous.
Being able to be the eminent monk that King Zhu Di of Yan worshiped every day shows the ability of the national preceptor.
Especially observing the sky at night, this kind of miraculous metaphysics is mysterious and awe-inspiring.
"The Imperial Master has deduced something." Fatty Zhao's tone became respectful.
Yao Guangxiao raised his eyelids slightly and said: "The secret must not be leaked."
Fatty Zhao immediately bowed and apologized: "I'm off to Meng Lang."
Then Zhao Fatty asked hesitantly: "Does the Imperial Master know about the Onmyoji of Japan?"
Zhao Pang is the main person in charge of diplomacy. He has a lot of understanding and research not only about the Ming Dynasty, but also about the Japanese country.
There is still some fear of the Onmyoji of Japan.
Hearing this, Yao Guangxiao said with disdain in his tone: "You are a crooked person and not worth mentioning."
If others say this, it is suspected of exaggeration.
But there is nothing wrong with Yao Guangxiao's words.
His master, the Taoist priest Xi Yingzhen, can be said to be the orthodox successor of Yin and Yang theory.
The Yin-Yang theory of the Japanese country originated from the literary transmission during the prosperous Tang Dynasty. However, since ancient times, the Central Plains Dynasty has paid attention to the law and has not spread it lightly, let alone spreading it to foreign nations.
Therefore, the things that Japan learned were only superficial and half-baked.
Yao Guangxiao, who is proficient in the three religions of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, is not as good as Liu Bowen at present. It can be said that to a certain extent, the Ming Dynasty is currently the peak of Yin and Yang magic.
He is also the most orthodox successor, although he rarely shows any knowledge of onmyoji.
...
The second day of the first lunar month.
This day has finally arrived, which is extremely important for all princes.
Not every year, the vassal kings can spend time in the capital on this day, but this year is particularly different.
The main source is naturally Taisun Zhuying.
Zhu Ying's current official name is naturally Zhu Xiongying. He has already entered the clan mansion, but as a grandson, no one dares to call him by his first name. This is the same as calling him Zhu Yuanzhang in front of Zhu Yuanzhang.
Zhu Yuanzhang's name is Zhu Ying, also known as Da Sun.
Like Zhu Di, calling Zhu Ying privately is just a habit.
Zhu Di was very nervous today.
Most of the other vassal kings are already in ruins. Now that my father is there, no matter what the arrangements or rules are, no one dares to provoke them.
As long as it is something that the father has decided, no refutation is allowed.
Even the vassal kings who are their own sons are still like this.
Except for some frontier Sai kings, most of the feudal kings were in inland areas. Naturally, they did not want to go to the battlefield to fight. It does not mean that every feudal king was a civilized, military-minded person who fought bravely.
It's just that some of the previous news was very vague. For example, if you don't conquer the vassal country, choose to be a civil servant, or become an idle prince. The relevant treatment, welfare, salary and other issues have not yet been determined in detail.
Everyone knows this very well, and it was naturally formulated by His Highness Taisun himself.
No one dared to urge or anything.
The vassal kings in the capital can imagine that after the Spring Festival, it is time to hand over the power of the personal guards in their hands.
Many people are reluctant to give up, but there is nothing they can do.
For example, the palace banquet, that is, the dinner, is probably around three o'clock in the afternoon.
The place for the banquet is Qianqing Palace.
The palaces in the palace are all separate and complete. Naturally, there is also a special dining room in the Qianqing Palace.
Not to mention that there are currently less than twenty people, even thirty-four people do not seem crowded.
The current palace banquets are not much different from ordinary banquets. Since it is a family banquet, there are not many rules and etiquette.
After noon, the vassal princes arrived one after another, and they first paid their respects to their father.
Then Zhu Yuanzhang exhorted them one by one, and it was almost done.
Zhu Yuanzhang, who likes to engage in etiquette systems the most, is relatively very relaxed when it comes to his own family, with almost no requirements, just the same as usual.
Of course, there are things like New Year greetings, red seals, filial piety, etc.
"Second brother, why do I see that the emperor's nephew looks very different now?" Zhu Fan asked in a low voice to Zhu Xi who was next to him.
Zhu Ping felt a little uneasy now.
Because he saw his father looking at him with a hint of reprimand.
Involuntarily, Zhu Xi remembered the incident where he broke his father's jade pendant due to some incident.
Different from the folk, the third day of the first lunar month, that is, tomorrow, is the time to worship the mother and queen. I think the current father must be particularly missed in his heart.
This shows that only the eyes that look at him are like this.
Hearing the questions from his third brother Zhu Fan, Zhu Fan had no intention of visiting his great-grandson. He was too busy taking care of himself, so he just wanted to hide quietly.
"The emperor's nephew has been in the palace for such a long time, so it is normal for his dignity to rise day by day."
After dealing with it casually, Zhu Xi stopped talking to his third brother Zhu Fan.
Zhu Fan wanted to ask a few more questions, but he noticed something strange about his second brother and turned around to meet his father's gaze. His heart skipped a beat and he stopped talking.
Because they are sorted by age.
Concubine Ning and Zhu Ying were sitting next to Zhu Yuanzhang.
The next step is to follow the order.
With the left as the honorable one, the older vassal king is on the left, and the prince who has not yet been crowned king is on the right.
"The expedition against Japan is about to begin in the spring. Lao San and Lao Si, what preparations have you made?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked from above.
Zhu Fan quickly stood up, saluted and bowed, and said: "To inform my father, my son is now ready to fight and conquer the Japanese country after the spring begins."
Zhu Yuanzhang was obviously not very satisfied with this answer, which was too official.
It is okay to fool others, but not yourself.
"Fourth brother, what about you?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again.
Then everyone's eyes turned to Zhu Di.
Unlike Zhu Fan, Zhu Di can now be said to be the focal figure among the vassal kings.
Before this, he was the only vassal prince who dared to question his father's choice of crown prince in the Fengtian Palace and in the court.
And for now, in terms of marching and fighting, Zhu Di can be considered to have made great contributions.
The vassal kings are all very well-informed about the news, and they have heard of some rumors and rumors.
Nowadays, many vassal kings are happy to laugh at the unclear relationship between Zhu Di and his grandson.
Don't worry about scarcity but inequality.
Zhu Di was so outstanding that even though many vassal kings did not say it, they felt jealous in their hearts.
Regardless of others, Zhu Fan is the most pioneer.
"To inform my father, I have sent additional manpower to investigate the situation of hurricanes near the Japanese country. There are currently many small boats sent out as envoys."
"Based on the lessons learned from the previous Yuan Dynasty, I hope to capture some Japanese people who are proficient in maritime transportation and see if they can avoid the hurricane."
"Regarding ships at sea, it is a matter of life and death for soldiers. I also sent close followers to strictly control the situation and make sure not to make the slightest mistake."
"My subordinates are also strengthening their training to become more familiar with water properties, especially in terms of seasickness. Many soldiers are not used to it. If they go to sea rashly, they will most likely lose their combat effectiveness."
One plan after another, one strategy after another, came out in Zhu Di's mouth.
Zhu Di is very particular about details when it comes to fighting, including intelligence.
Before the war, many preparations will be made to prevent possible situations.
In terms of questioning alone, Zhu Di's excellence is obviously superior to Zhu Fan's.
Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes also showed approval and satisfaction.
Only Zhu Fan's eyes became serious.
In terms of military talents, including talents, Zhu Fan was no worse than Zhu Di, but there was still a difference in overall planning.
In fact, Zhu Fan was somewhat prepared for what Zhu Di said, but his narration was much different.
What makes Zhu Fan a little puzzled is why Zhu Di behaved like this at this family banquet.
Because most people currently have a wait-and-see attitude, wanting to first ascertain the grandson's thoughts and subsequent arrangements for the vassal king.
Zhu Di was so sharp and sharp, obviously he had an agenda.
Zhu Ying listened and her eyes became serious.
In fact, what Zhu Di told me didn't seem to mean anything, and it didn't seem to be too difficult.
But being able to put it into practice is the real skill.
Obviously, what Zhu Di said has come true.
"Dasun, do you have anything to add to what your fourth uncle said?"
Zhu Yuanzhang turned to Zhu Ying and asked.
Zhu Ying stood up, bowed and saluted, and then said: "Uncle Four Emperors has foresight and is very confident about Japanese affairs. My grandson doesn't have much to add."
"The Japanese country has many islands. When marching, especially marching on the sea, you must not only worry about hurricanes, but also control the direction."
“According to records in ancient Yuan Dynasty classics, when the Mongolian and Yuan armies conquered Japan twice, many large ships deviated from their course and sailed into the vast sea without being traced.”
"And for the Japanese country, it is not just a conquest. It is not too difficult for our Ming army to conquer the Japanese country. The key is to follow up the Japanese jurisdiction."
"As everyone knows, the Japanese country is not rich, and the place is even more desolate. Nowadays, Yinshan has been discovered in the Japanese country. This is the focus of this expedition against the Japanese country."
Hearing Taisun's words, Zhu Di's eyes flashed.
It was obvious that Zhu Ying was suppressing him.
Originally, there was a big gap between him and his third brother Zhu Fan, but now Zhu Ying has turned the matter to management.
The implication is that the victory of the conquest of Japan is a natural thing, and the follow-up is the focus.
His performance just now was suddenly diluted.
The corners of Zhu Fan's mouth raised slightly.
Of course he felt it too.
The vassal kings had different thoughts, like Zhu Chong, who seemed not to hear it and just listened to himself.
While the father, grandson, and fourth brother were talking, it was impossible for everyone to enjoy the delicious food.
Everyone thought that Zhu Di would be a little angry. To everyone's surprise, Zhu Di stood up and saluted and said, "The emperor's nephew is right. I was a little negligent about this."
As soon as these words came out, not to mention the vassal king, even Zhu Yuanzhang's eyes changed slightly.
