He wants an attitude.
Rather than just bowing his head as an old man.
But not far after walking out, he felt regretful.
If this continues, will Lao Liu hate him?
Will the relationship between the two become worse in the future?
After all, that's 1.5 million taels of silver, which can save a lot of trouble.
With this money, he can reward the three armies without spending money from the treasury.
How good is this?
"How can we bend our backs for five buckets of rice?" Zhu Yuanzhang straightened his back and strode away.
The next day, Li Shanren entered the palace early in the morning. Zhu Yuanzhang was surprised when he learned that he had entered the palace, "Why did he enter the palace?"
However, he still met Li Shanren and said, "Master Bai, you are a busy man. I won't see you anytime soon."
"If there is no serious matter, I will not dare to bother Your Majesty." Li Shanren said.
"Is your family all back home?"
"Well, I have returned home. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty!" Li Shanren was very respectful.
After the two chatted for a while, Zhu Yuanzhang suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. The reason why he kept Li Shanren was because he missed his old relationship. In addition, the world was uncertain, and he did not want to be notorious for killing a hero.
"If you have anything to say, just tell me, we are not strangers." Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile.
"Wei Chen is here for the affairs of Japan Island Country."
"Oh? Is that why that bastard asked you to come out?"
"Wei Chen believes that the Japanese island country coming to congratulate us is the beginning of the great cause of unifying the world. When the great cause is finalized in the future, more and more countries will come to congratulate us.
But now, there are indeed very few foreign countries that are doing great things.
Wei Chen believes that His Majesty also wants to enthrone the Japanese island nation, and the people of the Japanese island nation are suffering from the division of the country. Aren't they the same as we are in the Central Plains now?
These people begged His Highness the King of Weihai to send troops to assist. Wei Chen thought this was a good thing.
It is something that can promote my great cause and divine power.
We must let the ministers of those small countries understand that countries that have contributed to our great cause can receive blessings and blessings.
It's not just a simple verbal promise.
Secondly, His Royal Highness King Weihai's sending troops to the Southern Dynasty can also greatly deter the bad people of the Japanese island country.
It can prevent Japanese bandits from disturbing the border from the root, greatly reduce military expenditures in coastal areas, and also make local peace and prosperity.
Thirdly, the Japanese island country is willing to hire one million taels of silver, which is particularly polite.
This amount of money will definitely be able to solve the urgent needs of my great cause.
The humble minister knows that His Majesty is determined to conquer the world, but as the saying goes, a penny cannot defeat a hero.
Money is what makes a man a man.
Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, it is reasonable to enshrine the Japanese island country and send troops to assist it from any angle. "
Having said this, Li Shanren paused and said with a smile: "This is why Wei Chen is willing to shamelessly enter the palace and work as a lobbyist."
"Then if we don't want to, wouldn't we become evil people?" Zhu Yuanzhang sneered.
"Your Majesty does not agree, so your Majesty naturally has his reasons, which cannot be speculated by a humble minister!" Seeing that Zhu Yuanzhang did not relent, Li Shanren continued: "But if this matter can be facilitated, it will be of great benefit to the country.
Although Gao Li is attached, who knows if he will waver?
This can also knock down the mountain and frighten the tiger, deter Gao Li, and allow Gao Li to continue to contribute in Liaodong.
It can be said that killing three birds with one stone. "
Zhu Yuanzhang understood the truth, but he just couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.
Reason told him that this kind of anger was undesirable and that everything should be done based on the overall situation.
If Zhu Jun begged him or discussed with him, he wouldn't think much about it at all.
Even for 1.5 million taels of silver, he could postpone the plan appropriately.
"Well, what you said makes sense, but we still feel it's inappropriate!"
Li Shanren was shocked and continued: "Your Majesty is worried that it will be unsafe for King Weihai to travel across the ocean?"
"This is only part of it." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "If we use troops against Liaodong, Zhang Zhou and Chen Han will definitely attack.
The north and south are heavily guarded, but the center is a little empty.
Therefore, his team is particularly important.
Moreover, if he uses troops, our overall plan will be delayed.
Who knows if he will play for a year or half a year?
If he can't attack for a long time, shouldn't we keep delaying it?
If the opportunity is missed, who can bear the responsibility? "
Li Shanren took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, how does Japan compare to Yingchang?"
"Of course it can't be compared."
"But in less than a month, His Highness captured Yingchang, a tiny land of Japan, and split it into two dynasties. Even in the two dynasties, the daimyo under their command were each in charge, and there was endless turmoil.
If it were a complete Japanese island country, it would still be a bit of a deterrent, but how could a scattered Japanese island country threaten us?
In Wei Chen's view, His Highness King Weihai's trip to Japan is more dangerous than Japan's.
Therefore, Wei Chen thought that His Majesty could relax and trust His Highness King Weihai.
Once done, the benefits are immeasurable.
And if His Royal Highness King Weihai attacks Liaodong in a roundabout way, how will the enemy know?
Cooperating with Duke Xin Guo at that time, there will definitely be miraculous results! "
Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Li Shanren and Zhu Yu had the same ideas, and knew that his worries were unfounded.
When Zhu Jun sends troops, the benefits naturally outweigh the disadvantages.
But he was still struggling.
Do you just agree?
If that bastard knew about it, wouldn't he be laughing at himself secretly?
Is he Lao Tzu, or am I Lao Tzu?
But then I thought about it, even if this kid is not convinced, he still wants to do things for me?
Isn’t it also for the imperial court to send troops?
It is beneficial to both the country and the country.
Why should I have trouble with Yin Zi?
Thinking of this, he had already made a decision.
You can settle the debt with Zhu Jun slowly, but don't settle over money or benefits.
"Well, what you said makes sense, but we need to meet the envoys of the Japanese island country before we can tell you the details." Zhu Yuanzhang said: "Don't leave either, come with us to meet these envoys."
Hearing this, Li Shanren breathed a sigh of relief and knew that Zhu Yuanzhang had relaxed, "Yes, Your Majesty!"
At this time, in the Honglu Pavilion, Nitta Yiyong and the other two were a little anxious.
"You said it's already the second day, why hasn't Emperor Daye summoned us yet?" Giyuu Nitta frowned, "Does he look down on us?"
"Don't belittle yourself. Since ancient times, the Central Plains countries have been extremely friendly to other countries. We only need to pay some small gifts and we can get a lot of gifts." Nanmu Chengcai said: "We will talk more when Emperor Daye summons us. If you say good things, you will definitely get many gifts in return when you go back."
Just as the two were having a sweet dream, officials from the Honglu Pavilion hurriedly came to report, "Yiyu Nitta, Kusunoki has become a talent, your Majesty has summoned him!"
The two of them suddenly became excited.
He stood up hurriedly, straightened his clothes, and followed the officials of Honglu Pavilion. He was both excited and a little nervous inside.
