Taizu Li Chenggui died. Li Yuanfang prepares for nationwide mourning.
However, the deal with the Japanese pirates was blocked at the port by the Ming Dynasty's navy. This matter cannot be explained clearly. The Ming Dynasty probably will not let North Korea go.
But before he could react, another piece of news came. The Ming Dynasty sent troops to occupy Jeju Island.
Of course, in Daming's own words, he took it back.
"Contact, Jurchen, Uliangha, Tatar, and Walla will fight against the Ming Dynasty together." Someone jumped out and suggested to Li Yuanfang.
Li Yuanfang looked at him like a fool. Are you crazy? Have you had enough of the good times?
In the Ming Dynasty, even the powerful Mongolia was defeated in the grasslands. Do you want to go to war with the Ming Dynasty to subjugate the country and destroy the species?
"If we can't start a war, we can only apologize. The Supreme King has just died, and Ming Dynasty, as a superior country, will not go too far at this time. It is nothing more than some compensation and benefits. In any case, we must return to Jeju Island and let Ming Dynasty withdraw its troops."
The old Prime Minister Zuo, Lord Min Ji of Lixing Prefecture, said.
Min Ji is the father of Min Wuxie and Min Wujiu. A truly wealthy family in North Korea.
Li Yuanfang sighed. He didn't want to fight back forcefully, but as a monarch of a small country, he couldn't show any dignity in front of a big country like Daimyo.
He immediately sent an envoy to report the funeral, and sent Min Wuxie to the Ming Dynasty again to explain the matter to the Ming Emperor. And quickly...
In addition, envoys were sent to negotiate with the Ming Dynasty's army not to continue the attack.
Min Ji returned home and told Min Wuxie what happened in the court, and Min Wuxie had a look of surprise on his face.
In the Min family, Min Wujiu is the direct descendant. There are also brothers Min Wuhui and Min Wuji.
"Do you know who is the leader of the blockade of the port?" Min Wuxie asked eagerly.
"I haven't heard of this, but the one who occupied Jeju Island was Xu Qin, the crown prince of the Kingdom of Wei."
Min Ji said.
"It's broken. The one who blocked Geoje Island is probably Luo Zhong." Min Wuxie said, patting his thigh.
"Why do you say that?" Min Ji opened his old eyes and asked in confusion.
"Father, this Xu Qin is the descendant of Xu Da, the king of Zhongshan. He established the Haifansi and Ensheqiang in the recent Ming Dynasty. After Zheng He's voyages to the West, Xu Qin established the Haifansi fleet. One battle destroyed three. Thousand Japanese Pirates is his handiwork.”
Min Wuxie said.
"He is also a hero. How old is he?" Min Ji asked.
But I was lamenting in my heart that the emergence of heroes in the country was a disaster for North Korea. Since ancient times, heroes have not been kind.
"I am only seventeen years old this year." Min Wuxie said.
"What, so young?" Min Ji was shocked.
"When we arrived in the Ming Dynasty this time, Hai'er urged Zhengying to marry him. Unfortunately, he had a real wife. Hai'er thought over and over again about how to get the Ming Emperor to issue an order to grant Zhengying as his concubine."
Min Wuxie said.
"What? In other words, this young hero is our Zhengying's husband? So..."
Min Ji's eyes were finally no longer dim, and suddenly shone brightly.
"Yes, the child is incompetent and can only fight for the position in the side room." Min Wuxie quickly apologized.
"No, you did a good job, very good. I was worried that after my death, the Min family would not survive. Now it seems that you have secured a future for the Min family."
Min Ji said excitedly.
"In this case, there is no need to rush to plead guilty to Daming. It would be better to let them stay for a while."
Min Ji shines with danger.
"Father, that Xu Qin is an extremely dangerous person. He did not bring people to Jeju Island simply to gain territory."
Min Wuxie said.
"All things considered, your Majesty still needs our Min family. With our relationship with Xu Qin, this matter belongs to you. When the time comes..."
Min Ji is making plans.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door, which made Min Ji very unhappy. Someone was disturbing him at this time.
"Master, the second lady is back?" the housekeeper said eagerly after entering the door.
"Who are you? Are you crazy? Isn't Zhengying in Ming Dynasty?" Min Wuxie thought that the old housekeeper was crazy.
"Hmph, you wish I would be in Ming Dynasty and be that madman's concubine. I'm not someone you can sell if you want."
Min Zhengying opened the door and walked in, like a proud peacock, as if he had accomplished some feat, showing himself proudly.
Especially looking at the dumbfounded Min Wuxie, she felt even more proud. Then he suddenly threw himself into his father's arms and cried.
"Father, this bastard actually sold me to that dude from the Ming Dynasty. That dude was an ignorant madman. Father gave a memorial to the Ming Emperor and asked the Ming Emperor to kill him..."
Min Zhengying looked at Min Wuxie fiercely while crying, saying to her heart, let's see how father deals with you, a concubine.
Min Wuxie was completely dumbfounded, which made Min Zhengying very happy.
"You said that crazy man's fleet blocked Geoje Island and our army was defeated for more than a hundred miles. He personally led the troops to occupy Jeju Island.
Now your Majesty must humbly write to the Ming Emperor, asking your brother to send an envoy to pray for the crazy man in your mouth to withdraw his troops. What should you teach your father to do at this time? "
Min Ji gently stroked his daughter's hair and asked lovingly.
Min Zhengying was so shocked that he forgot to cry, and suddenly sat up and looked at his father. It was like meeting my father for the first time.
Isn’t the father omnipotent? Why is it that when I mention that person at this time, I still feel helpless and vicissitudes of life?
"It's over, the Min family's future is over." Min Wuxie muttered listlessly.
"Father, how is this possible? I have hundreds of thousands of troops in North Korea, how can I not defeat a playboy of his? Are you kidding me? Why does the Min family need a retreat?"
Min Zhengying said with some confusion.
"I raised you so well that I made you so ignorant. The Ming Dynasty was dozens of times as big as North Korea. The population was dozens of times. The national power was dozens of times more. Not to mention Xu Qin came with an army. Even if he comes alone, the king cannot afford to offend him."
Min Ji's words made Min Zhengying a little unbelievable, and he felt like bursts of thunder exploding in his ears.
Her father has always been her god, and her father's words will not lie to her. She felt like her whole world had collapsed.
"As the saying goes, great merit overwhelms the master. The king is already afraid of the Min family. The Min family will be fine if I am alive. But if I die that day, the king will turn around and attack the Min family. And once the Min family marries the Ming Dynasty, the king will not dare to attack at will.
What a pity, what a great opportunity..."
Min Ji patiently explained to Min Zhengying that Min Zhengying felt like a fool.
It turns out that the Min family has already fallen into such a crisis. And the crazy husband whom he despised actually made the king tremble and made his father very worried.
"No, how did you escape from the Ming Dynasty? How could a girl like you escape from the Ming Dynasty?" Min Wuxie suddenly reacted.
"What's the difficulty? Ming Dynasty is not as powerful as you say. I just found a maid from the Xu family and ran out."
Min Zhengying said aggrievedly.
"Where is she? Bring her here, don't invite her..." Min Wuxie suddenly understood.
Min Ji was so cunning and cunning, he immediately figured it out.
Soon Hongshu was invited to the study. He bowed down to Min Ji and Min Wuxie Yingying, his manners were thoughtful but neither humble nor overbearing.
"How dare you, you are just a Korean slave, how dare you not kneel down when you see my father." Min Zhengying pointed at Hongshu and said.
"Mrs. Side, because I represent the young master." Hong Shu said with a slight smile.
This Korean maid who had been submissive to her along the way was actually not polite at all. Made her very angry.
"You bitch, don't call me Mrs. Side. I'm not Mrs. Side. You're looking for death." Min Zhengying came up and wanted to draw the book.
"Stop..." Min Ji said lightly.
Min Zhengying was so frightened by her father's words that she stopped on the spot.
"Mrs. Side, do you think you could really leave the Ming Dynasty if you were not the wife of Wei Guogong? Do you think you would really be able to walk out of that courtyard if the young master hadn't asked you to come back?"
Hongshu said calmly, defeating Min Zhengying's pride word by word.
"Those coachmen and boats all belong to the Duke of Wei. Do you think they are really sending you back? They are just sending you back to the slave family to bring a message to the Min family." Hong Shu said calmly.
Min Zhengying felt like he was going to explode. It turned out that she was just a brand to get this woman to come to North Korea.
"You...you...this cheap maid, as a Korean, actually colluded with that madman, you..."
Min Zhengying was trembling with anger. He had never felt so despised.
"The young master said, forceful melons are not sweet. Mrs. Side is destined to die, but the Xu family needs a gentle and courteous Mrs. Side, so Min Zhengying also asked the Min family to replace her." Hong Shu said lightly.
Min Zhengying was confused. What do you mean by changing? Can I still change it?
"Seriously? Master Xu said that?" Min Wuxie said happily.
"So the Crown Prince of Wei intends to marry the Min family?" Min Ji asked calmly.
"The next words will be inconvenient for outsiders to listen to." Hongshu said calmly.
"Zhengying, go down." Min Ji said to Min Zhengying.
"Father, what...what does this mean?" Min Zhengying was confused. She finally realized that she seemed to have made a mistake. Big mistake.
Why did the Min family's legitimate daughter become unimportant? Don't throw it away lightly like it's a piece of grass.
The moment the study door closed, she felt like she had been abandoned into the cold abyss.
