"...Hahahaha, so that man named Fujiwara believes that he is really a descendant of China?" In the back hall of the government office, Zhu Su sat with his two brothers, a group of staff, officials and the generals of the Jin Yiwei. , discussing recent major events.
When Mr. Nozomi Gao Qi reported Fujiwara's current situation, King Yan Zhu Di couldn't help laughing.
"Yes." Gao Qiye, who was sitting in the guest seat, smiled and twisted his beard. "Now he is convinced of it and is very excited about it. He even calls on many royal officials of the Japanese country not to forget their ancestors."
"These days, this man has been reading classics, looking for traces of his ancestors in China. He actually 'found' him: It is said that his original surname is 'Nakatomi', and Fujiwara believes that his clan should be the empress of Zhongshan Kingdom during the Warring States Period. People. After the Zhongshan Kingdom was destroyed by the Zhao Kingdom, the people of the country went south to seek refuge in Wu, and then some men and women moved to the Japanese Kingdom of Japan with Xu Fu."
"To show that they do not forget the memory of the ancestors of Zhongshan Kingdom, these people changed their surnames to 'Zhongchen'..."
"It's true that he figured out the origin..." Zhu Su has gained some experience. I thought that in this way, Fujiwara would be deceived and 'placed' as a Chinese ancestor. This person might not want to believe it, or even get angry about it.
Therefore, Zhu Sucai deliberately arranged a series of "discrimination" strategies, aiming to plant the subconscious mind of "the barbarians, the nobles and the nobles" in this person's heart, paving the way for Gao Qi's subsequent appearance.
Unexpectedly, it seems that this person is more enthusiastic about this matter than Gao Qi. He actually dug up historical materials that were self-evident and engaged in "self-deception."
"Haha, maybe it's not all far-fetched." Gao Qi said with a smile. "When His Highness the Fifth Prince asked me to 'take quotes out of context' from historical materials, I felt quite embarrassed."
"But the more I rummaged through the historical materials, the clearer the historical truth became. There was no need to take it out of context to prove it. It seemed that the truth was just like that. Perhaps these Japanese people from the Japanese country were really me, descendants of the Chinese Miao, thousands of years ago." indefinite."
"Besides, which of these four barbarians has not tried every means to be connected with my Chinese heritage? Who can be a Chinese and would be willing to claim to be a barbarian." Gao Qi said with great pride. A national self-confidence rooted in the bones emerged spontaneously.
Zhu Su was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly laughed: It was because he had made this matter complicated. This era is not that of later generations: the era in which the Chinese nation was humiliated by the barbarians and disgrace due to centuries of Tatar poisoning, and has yet to completely recover. In this era, the identity of the people of the Celestial Dynasty was something that barbarians from all over the world envied.
Even though the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty had been raging for a hundred years and even classified the Han people as "fourth-class citizens", the splendid culture that China has retained for thousands of years is still unmatched in the eyes of other ethnic groups.
Even when Kublai Khan founded the Yuan Dynasty, he still had to use the Han system. Although Han Confucian scholars were suppressed and "Confucianism" was belittled, they had to learn Han culture and use Confucian culture to govern the country. In the eyes of various tribes and countries, it has always been clear which side is civilized and which side is barbaric.
Not to mention that now that the Ming Dynasty has been established, in just a few short years, its regulated territory has been far away from the Liao and Song Dynasties. Moreover, the giant dragon is awakening and its claws are sharpening, all indicating that China has risen again.
The great power of the Tang Dynasty and the Han Dynasty is still there, so how can the barbarians from all over the world not know who is the most powerful?
Fujiwara inexplicably gained the identity of a "Chinese Miao", which was a surprise to him. Of course, he had to do everything possible to confirm it.
"In that case, you should pay attention to changing your attitude towards him." Zhu Su suppressed a smile and joked to the 'guards', 'waiters', 'roadside men' and others sitting in the guest seats:
"Then Fujiwara is now a 'Chinese'. You can't despise and humiliate him as before. You have to make him feel the difference between being a Chinese Miao and a Japanese barbarian."
"Yes." The Jinyi guards who had previously pretended to be common people to tease Fujiwara couldn't help but laugh.
"Sir, have you hinted that Fujiwara will convey this judgment to the emperor of their country after returning home?" Zhu Su asked Gao Qidao. Ultimately, this is the main purpose. If he could be made aware of his connection with the Ming Dynasty, then one day when the emperor was forced into a desperate situation by the shogunate's thieves, he would probably think of using this relationship to ask for help from the Ming Dynasty.
At that time, the Ming Dynasty can justifiably garrison the Japanese country...
"Yes." Gao Qi smiled. "Actually, after Fujiwara knew that he was a Chinese descendant, he no longer wanted to return to his homeland of Japan. Instead, he wanted to convey his allegiance to His Highness through me, saying that he wanted to serve as an official in our Ming Dynasty as a Chinese..."
"Pfft!" Zhu Su just took a sip of tea, and after hearing this, he spat it out again. what is this? The Japanese version of "Don't miss Shu"?
"Don't worry, Your Highness, Qi has persuaded him." Gao Qi hurriedly continued, "I told him that since the Japanese country is in the midst of war at this time, if he returns to Han at this time, he will inevitably be suspected of betraying his master in danger. They are despised by the virtuous. Moreover, in the Japanese country, there are still many ignorant Chinese immigrants who are arrogant and do not obey the king's rules."
"Then Fujiwara took the initiative to express his intention to return the Japanese country and spread the word, so that the Japanese people would know where their ancestors came from and where their roots are. If possible, he would also advise the Japanese king to recognize his ancestors and return to the clan, and become a vassal... "
"Oh? Did he really say that?" Zhu Su said. This was an unexpected surprise. Originally, I just wanted to take advantage of the crisis in Japan and try to take advantage of the chaos to station a force in Japan. Even if the army is successfully garrisoned, how to devour the Japanese country without hindering the great cause of justice and making people unable to find faults still needs to be done slowly and carefully.
What the Ming Dynasty wants to acquire in the future is not just the Japanese country. The name of the "righteousness" of the Celestial Kingdom is the sharpest weapon and must not be discarded.
However, if Fujiwara is willing to take the initiative to decentralize the upper echelon of Japan from within Japan as a minister of Japan, that would be tantamount to actively offering the "claim" of Japan to the Ming Dynasty. As long as someone in the Japanese country admits this statement, they will no longer resist the rule of the Ming Dynasty.
After all, the entire Japanese country was founded by the Chinese, so the Japanese country has naturally been a part of China since ancient times!
"Mr. Nozomi, in your opinion, how credible are Fujiwara's words?" Zhu Su asked.
"This person is a person who attaches great importance to his status and background. Since he can serve me as a Chinese, how can he be willing to inherit the Yi Di family again? Judging from Qi Qi's point of view, it is 78% likely!" Gao Qidao.
Zhu Su was overjoyed, this Fujiwara is a teachable boy!
Get on the road!
"In that case." Zhu Su thought for a while and solemnly raised his hand to Gao Qi:
"Mr. Xizhi, I have another important matter. I would like to ask you, sir!"
"Your Highness, it's okay to say it." Seeing Zhu Su's solemn words, Gao Qiyi said solemnly.
