Goguryeo was founded by Ju Mong, a native of Buyeo during the Western Han Dynasty, while Baekje originated from Mahan in the same period, and Silla originated from Chenhan.
During the long period of coexistence for nearly a thousand years, the three countries were hostile to each other and wanted to unify the peninsula, but they did not dare to let go, lest the snipe and the clam compete with each other for the fishermen's profit.
When the Sui Dynasty was established, the Three Kingdoms of Haidong continued their ancient vassal relationship with the Sui Dynasty, and accepted Yang Jian's canonization: Yang Jian canonized Gao Yuan as the Duke of Liaodong and King of Goguryeo; Jin Baijing as the Duke of Lelang County , King of Silla; canonized Buyeojang as Duke of Daifang County and King of Baekje.
All three regard the Sui Dynasty as their suzerainty; however, their actual relationship with the Sui Dynasty is different. Goguryeo, the most powerful, has repeatedly mobilized the Mohe and Khitan coalition forces to launch wars against the Sui Dynasty in an attempt to devour the territory east of Linyu Pass in the Sui Dynasty. Today's disaster has come.
As the second largest country far away from the Central Plains, Silla once attacked Goguryeo together with Baekje. However, after occupying the upper reaches of the Han River, it immediately turned its back and disowned its allies. It caught its ally Baekje off guard and seized the lower reaches of the Han River occupied by Baekje.
Later, Baekje and Goguryeo attacked Silla one after another, and even the Japanese nation that was allied with Baekje also crossed the sea to attack Silla in an attempt to recapture the Kayak tribes.
Forced by helplessness, Jin Baijing recognized Goguryeo as his suzerain state. Silla had two fathers, and they were undoubtedly more afraid of Gao's father who was close to Chi Chi. Therefore, when Gao Yuan invaded the Sui frontier in the 18th year of Kaihuang's reign, King Jin Baijing of Silla also sent 2,000 soldiers to join the battle and attack Father Sui.
However, the Great Sui Dynasty now powerfully broke the stalemate that had existed on the peninsula for nearly a thousand years; and their Gao Daddy was about to be destroyed. This also caused Silla, who had been enemies of the Great Sui Dynasty, to tremble. Not only did they no longer expect to unify the peninsula, , and even feared that the Sui Dynasty would destroy Silla by the way.
Jin Baijing originally planned to bite the bullet and come to see Yang Ji, but Yin Fannulifu, who was in charge of state affairs, Jin Houji, the commander of the Ministry of War, who was in charge of military power, and others were firmly opposed. They believed that Yang Ji was famous for killing and would most likely kill or detain Jin Baijing. ; If the golden white pure sheep enters the tiger's mouth and never returns, Silla will be finished.
Jin Baijingruo did not come, and he could not show the sincerity of Silla's reconciliation and begging for mercy, but he did not have a son who could be a hostage, so he had to let his eldest daughter Jin Deman, who was fourteen years old, as the envoy to take charge of the national affairs. As deputy envoy.
[Note] Compared with King Baekjeong of Silla, King Buyeojang of Baekje only recognized the Sui Dynasty as his suzerainty. Yang Guang listened to Yang Ji's suggestion last year and sent an envoy to contact Fuyu Zhang. He hoped that when the Sui Dynasty would one day conquer Goguryeo, Baekje could open its port to the Sui navy so that the Sui army could fully rest and attack Goguryeo from the land. Southern region.
Baekje has always been bullied by the boss and the second boss. Buyeo Zhang was naturally ecstatic about the big tree he sent to his door. Not only did he decisively agree to the request of the Sui envoy, he also led his team across the ocean twice to pay homage to Yang Guang; He promised that he would cover the Sui army's food and transportation supplies, and also promised to send troops to participate in the war.
This time Yang Ji used Fang Yanzao as his envoy to ask Fuyu Zhang to send troops to contain the Goguryeo army in the south at the critical moment. After receiving Yang Ji's letter, he arranged troops at the border as agreed.
When Gao Yue retreated to Pyongyang, he immediately attacked Haegu, Dongbi and other places from the sea. And this time those who came to Yangji
The "official envoy" is Buyeo Zhang himself. In the main hall of Chang'an City Guards Palace, Yang Ji, Yang Jing, Pei Ju, and Zhou Fashang, as masters, received the chief and deputy envoys of Silla and Baekje at one time. Also present were Gao Jianwu and Song Zun.
The Silla and Baekje envoys had already seen each other on their way to the main hall, and they were not surprised by each other's presence.
Although the two countries have a sworn feud, since this is the territory of the Sui Dynasty, both sides must give face to their masters, and they dare not offend Yang Ji, who represents the Sui Dynasty at this moment when their own interests are related, so both sides are very polite. ,restraint.
But when they heard Yang Ji introduce Gao Jianwu as the King of Korea and Song Zun as the eldest brother of Korea, they were all stunned.
The Sui Dynasty not only put on a posture of annihilating Goguryeo, but was only one step away. However, now Yang Ji actually said that Gao Jianwu was the king of Goguryeo; in this way, the Sui Dynasty was very likely to not destroy Goguryeo.
There are currently two kings of the Three Kingdoms of Haidong and a princess in the hall. If we add King Wei of the Sui Dynasty, King Dao, and Prime Minister Pei, wouldn't it become a four-party meeting?
After seeing the different expressions on all sides, Yang Ji smiled and said: "Everyone, our Sui Dynasty has been a country of benevolence and righteousness and etiquette since ancient times. Everyone talks about civilization, benevolence, righteousness, and morality. But at the same time, we also We believe in the principle that we will not offend others unless they offend us. If someone kills one of our Sui people, then we will kill ten thousand and destroy a country. To paraphrase the words of the sages, that is, 'Those who openly offend me and force the Sui Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are. '. This is well reflected in our Sui army."
"All three of your countries regard Buddhism as their national religion. If you don't understand the allusion of 'Anyone who offends me openly will be punished no matter how far away'. You can compare our Sui Dynasty to the angry-eyed Vajra; the angry-eyed Vajra is a Buddha on one side and a demon on the other. If If the surrounding countries are civilized and benevolent, we will be the merciful Buddha. On the contrary, we will be the devil."
"My nickname is Vajra Nu. Just from this name, you can know that I am a very devout believer of Angry Eyes Vajra. Therefore, when I face the countries in the Western Regions who respect me greatly, I use the Buddha's Treat them with mercy; when faced with the Turkic Khanate, Tuyuhun, Khitan, and Goguryeo who have fallen into the evil way, they will follow the requirements of the Angry-Eye Vajra, use the sword to save them, and help them escape from the sea of suffering."
"Based on my current achievements, I will be able to achieve enlightenment and become a Buddha in the future. However, in this hell-like world where demons are dancing, I have a grand wish of 'until hell is empty, I will never become a Buddha'." Yang Ji said in a tone of voice Very calm, but what is truly terrifying is not the yelling of the incompetent people, but the calmness of the God of Death who ignores human life. When the three parties heard the last words of the God of Death,
When "Hell is not empty, I swear I will never become a Buddha", I have a creepy feeling that makes my hair stand on end.
"Your Majesty, I, Silla, am willing to be the most loyal slave of the Sui Dynasty from generation to generation." The person who spoke was the princess of Silla, Kinderman. This girl has delicate features and beautiful eyes. Although she is young, she has the appearance of a little beauty.
However, Yang Ji knew that this seemingly harmless little girl was quite powerful. She would go down in history as
The "fake power of the tiger" was brought to the extreme. With his outstanding political talent, he first used Li Shimin's power to secure the position of queen, and then used Li Zhi's power to lay a good foundation for Silla to unify the peninsula, and finally made Silla become the eastern power of the Tang Dynasty. Nightmare.
The reason why Yang Ji suggested that Yang Guang let the Haidong Three Kingdoms continue to coexist was because he was inspired by this little girl and the Li family.
A person was talking boringly, but she interrupted him. Yang Ji asked directly: "Envoy Jin, can you represent Duke Lelang?" Kinderman was regretting and worried about his rudeness. Hearing what Yang Ji said, his smart eyes rolled and he immediately said: "Of course you can!"
"Okay!" Yang Ji nodded and said to Kinderman: "I will meet with you three countries to resolve your disputes so that the people of the three countries in Haidong can live and work in peace and contentment. As far as I know, the relationship between Silla and Baekje The dispute was caused by your betrayal and betrayal. Not only did you seize the lower reaches of the Han River, you also attacked the Holy King of Baekje, the Holy King of Zhi, and tens of thousands of elites and died in battle." Goguryeo suffered heavy losses, and its strength has changed from the eldest to the third. The Great Sui Dynasty Later, it was separated from Goryeo by the Zhushui River, and its territory was reduced to the third child.
However, Silla, as the second oldest, suddenly became the boss. Its comprehensive strength is not much less than that of Goryeo and Baekje combined. If it is allowed to develop, it may be possible to unify the three countries.
Yang Ji naturally did not allow this potential threat to appear; what's more, although Baekje was not a good thing, Fuyu Zhang worked for the Sui Dynasty after all, and he did his best. The Sui Dynasty could not treat Baekje badly, otherwise, in the future, Who is willing to serve and sacrifice his life for the Sui Dynasty?
Kang generously ceded the most prosperous lower reaches of Jianghan to Baekje, which could not only weaken Silla but also appease Baekje. In only three to five years, Baekje and Silla were equally powerful, and Goryeo slowly recovered.
At that time, the three countries will be able to continue their stalemate. After listening to Yang Ji's words, Kinderman and Nulifu were stunned: they came to the mission with the idea that as long as they could maintain the country, they would give anything. However, Yang Ji's previous friendly attitude made them My mentality has changed. I think I can stick to the bottom line and not give in if I can.
He was just annoyed that the little girl had snatched his words, but when Fuyu Zhang heard this, he was overjoyed and extremely grateful. King Wei, what a good man!
After a while, Nulifu took a deep breath, saluted Yang Ji and said, "Your Majesty, your daughter is young and naive, and she didn't mean it. I hope your Majesty will forgive me, foreign minister..."
"It has nothing to do with her. I won't argue with a little girl." Yang Ji didn't accept this. He interrupted Nulifu and continued: "You sent troops to invade our Sui border in the 18th year of the founding of the Emperor. Killing the people of my Sui Dynasty even led to the sacrifice of 300,000 soldiers of my Sui Dynasty in vain. This blood debt cannot be ignored. If you don't let me become a Buddha, then I will become a demon."
"Before I return to the court, you must return all the people in the lower reaches of the Han River and within the territory to Baekje. Of course, you may not return it, or you may take the people away, but what you will face is that I, the Sui general, and the Baekje When the time comes, what you lose will not be the lower reaches of the Han River, but the soldiers and civilians of the entire country who sacrificed their lives for us during the Sui Dynasty." Seeing that Kinderman and Nulifu's faces turned pale, Yang Ji said very reasonably: " If you can't make the decision, you can go back and discuss with Duke Lelang; just reply before I conquer Pyongyang City."
"Your Majesty, there is no need to go back and report, we can make the decision on this matter." Kinderman smiled bitterly, thinking with some self-deprecation in his heart: The result of just ceding the lower reaches of the Han River and the people within it was far better than they imagined. Now, they are pushing their limits a bit.
"Okay, let's sign the alliance later!" Yang Ji turned to Fuyu Zhang, who was beaming with joy, and said, "Master Daifang, it is said that you are allies with the Japanese country?" Fuyu Zhang didn't know what Yang Ji meant, so he quickly suppressed the smile on his face, He said with reservation: "Exactly, but in recent years, there has been no contact."
"It's best not to have any contact!" Yang Ji glanced at him and said, "The crown prince of Japan sent a fake envoy to the Sui Dynasty in the name of the king. The letter of credence was full of disrespectful words, and the whole country was extremely angry. , vowed to go out to conquer it, and the northern navy of the Sui Dynasty was prepared for the Japanese country."
"To avoid misunderstandings in the future, I hope that Baekje and Silla, which are close to Japan, will cut off all relations with them. Anyone who dares to interact with them and teach the civilization of the Central Plains will become our enemy in the Sui Dynasty."
"Here!" This time, Kinderman agreed simply. After all, Silla and the Japanese country were feuding, and she wished that the Sui Dynasty would destroy the Japanese country.
"Here!" Buyeo Zhang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, glad that he had reservations, but after going back, he really had to cut off all contacts. Otherwise, today's Goguryeo would be Baekje's tomorrow.
————[Note: The birth dates of Jin Baijing and Kinderman are unknown, but when Jin Baijing succeeded to the throne in 579, he was already capable of handling state affairs, and he was at least more than ten years old at the time.
Three years after arriving in Daye, he would be about forty years old; so it is more reasonable to say that his eldest daughter Kinderman was 14 years old at this time.
