"Please allow your majesty to bring the evidence of people from that country bribing low officials to the palace."
"Correct." Zhu Jianshen was also a little confused, wondering what kind of medicine Xu Youzhen was selling in the gourd.
Then Xu Youzhen strode out of the hall, and two tall Jinwu guards entered the hall carrying a box.
Then Xu Youzhen opened the box in front of all the officials.
Gold, pearls, gems, agate, and at the bottom are pieces of silver bricks.
The ministers exclaimed, who would give Xu Youzhen such a heavy gift?
"Your Majesty, this is the generous gift that the ministers of that small country gave to the humble minister."
Zhu Jianshen was also quite surprised. With so much gold and silver, Xu Youzhen may not have that much salary in his lifetime. Although he still doesn't understand the whole story, he has already given Xu Youzhen a high look. Isn't it true that Xu Youzhen is not greedy for money and power? A villain?
"Who will send you off?" Zhu Jianshen asked.
"North Korea, I am reporting to the envoy, Han Minghui." Xu Youzhen said with a serious face.
"Why send me off?" Zhu Jianshen asked next.
"Your Majesty, last night the North Korean envoy Han Minghui brought this box of gold and silver to visit Wei Chen at his residence. He stated that when Wuyang Hou Shi Heng returned to the country, he invaded and occupied hundreds of hundreds of people in their country. After hearing about the land in the country, the ministers felt that something was wrong and there must be something hidden, so they pretended to accept Han Minghui's gift and found out from his mouth that in North Korea, Shouyang King Li Yao launched the Guiyou Jing. Nan, combined with Korean Wu Xun, Hong Dasun, Hong Yuncheng, Yang Ding, etc., killed Zuo Yizheng Jin Zongrui and Huang Puren, exiled his brother Anping Dajun, coerced the young master, and took charge of the government alone, and had ambitions to seek power."
"General Shi Heng supervised the construction of the Baihu bunker, which disturbed Li Yao and made the Joseon royal court aware of what they had done. I, the Ming Dynasty, already knew that General Shi Heng and Chen Bing wanted to help the continuation of Korea's orthodoxy. "
"The envoy Han Minghui actually compared the Korean King Li Hongwei to His Majesty, and then compared their Lord Shouyang to the Taibao."
"unreasonable."
"unreasonable."
"Your Majesty, if you offend Tianwei, you should kill this envoy."
After hearing Xu Youzhen's words, the officials became excited. How could I, the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, the True Dragon Emperor, be discussed with the king of a small barbarian country? How could I, Yu Qian Taibao, be loyal to the country? Comparable.
It is extremely unreasonable and should be severely punished.
Xu Youzhen said loudly: "Your Majesty, in the third year of Chenghua, Your Majesty issued an edict to confer Li Hongwei as the King of Joseon at the request of Joseon. In just three years, how could a new king be established? I beg Your Majesty to issue an edict to reprimand Li Yao and others."
No one in the entire court knew what Xu Youzhen said, not even Zhu Jianshen, a time traveler.
He only knew about this period of North Korea's history from Bangzi's TV series, but he didn't delve into it. He didn't know which period it was in.
Now after listening to Xu Youzhen's words, I feel a little surprised. Li Yao, who will be called the ancestor of the world in later generations, actually lives in the same era as himself.
In the history of Bangzi, Li Yao can be regarded as one of the few people who can be mentioned. Later generations commented that he was capable of both literary and military skills. He launched a coup to take power, and then cooperated with the Ming army to attack Jianzhou Jurchen. He is a famous figure in history. Li Manzhu was killed by Li Yao.
"My beloved ministers, how do you think this matter should be handled? Can just issuing a reprimand dispel Lord Shouyang's ambition?" Zhu Jianshen said.
After hearing Zhu Jianshen's words, Yu Qian was moved in his heart. Did His Majesty mean to use the army to intervene?
Li Xian came out and said: "Your Majesty, I feel that the envoy Han Minghui should be controlled, and I have issued an order to summon the North Korean Shouyang to come to Beijing to reprimand him."
"What if Li Yao doesn't want to come?" Xu Youzhen asked.
"If he is unwilling to come, he really has ambitions. When the time comes, he will issue an order to reprimand Li Yao, and ask General Shi Heng to send a large army to the border when he is building a hundred households to warn Li Yao not to act rashly." Li Xian replied.
In the eyes of the officials, to preserve the continuation of North Korea's orthodoxy is to preserve the Ming Dynasty's authority over it. However, in Zhu Jianshen's view, he had a different idea. Could he take advantage of North Korea's political instability and civil strife to seize the opportunity from North Korea? I got a piece of land with me.
But how can we use weapons to influence the situation in North Korea and make both parties involved in the civil strife begin to compromise with themselves?
What Li Xian said could indeed restrain Li Yao's rebellion, but it had no substantial benefit to the Ming Dynasty.
Now that he has returned to his hometown in North Korea, Ming Dynasty should have made arrangements early.
Zhu Jianshen shifted his gaze to Xu Youzhen.
Xu Youzhen looked at Zhu Jian's deep eyes and seemed to understand something.
Is this letting yourself go?
"Your Majesty, I am willing to go to North Korea on your behalf to reprimand Li Yao and appease the King of North Korea."
After hearing Xu Youzhen's words, Zhu Jianshen felt strange that he just glanced at Xu Youzhen.
He understood what I meant. It’s amazing...
When Yu Qian, Li Xian and others heard that Xu Youzhen was leaving the capital, they were very excited.
It would take at least half a year to go back and forth to stabilize the situation in North Korea, or even a year or two. If he leaves for a while, the favor with His Majesty will definitely decrease a bit.
Before Zhu Jianshen could speak, Li Xian said: "Your Majesty, I think it is appropriate to send the censor of Xudu there."
"Wei Chen reconsideration."
"The minister reconsiders."
Yang Shan, who had just successfully resigned, also came out and said: "We will reconsider."
There are also some censors who have just found the right position to step forward.
"Wei Chen feels that it is a small country and there is no need for Xu Du Yushi to go there in person. Wei Chen is willing to go."
"The minister reconsiders."
"The minister reconsiders."
These dissuading censors knew clearly that if Xu Youzhen left Beijing, His Majesty would be unfamiliar with him when he came back, and it would be difficult to reach this level again.
But Xu Youzhen didn't think so. He could clearly feel that His Majesty wanted to make a fuss. Since His Majesty wanted to make a fuss, how could I, Xu Youzhen, be omitted from participating.
While the two parties were arguing, Zhu Jianshen glanced at Zhang Bao. Zhang Bao instructed, cleared his throat and said: "Be quiet, be quiet."
After Zhang Bao finished speaking, the hall became quiet.
"Censor of Xudu, are you willing to go to a bitter and cold place?"
"Wei Chen is willing."
Zhu Jianshen nodded and said, "Then I'll pay you a visit to Xudu Censor."
After Xu Youzhen listened, he kowtowed to the leader.
Then Zhu Jianshen issued an order to heavily guard the inn where North Korea lived, and to deal with it after discussing with the cabinet and others.
After resigning from the imperial court, Zhu Jianshen summoned the chief minister of the cabinet Yu Qian, the assistant minister Li Xian, the minister of the Ministry of War, the assistant minister Wang Wen, the left minister of the Ministry of official affairs, the assistant minister Shang Lu, the right capital censor Xu Youzhen, and the Duke of Chengguo in front of the emperor in the Palace of Qianqing. Zhu Shou, the commander-in-chief on the left, Chen Ying, the commander-in-chief on the right in Taining, and others discussed the matter of King Shouyang's disorderly government in Korea again.
Yu Qian, Shang Ren, Wang Wen and others felt that they should strictly intervene and restrain Shouyang. The bottom line for Shouyang was that he could not usurp the throne.
However, Li Xian, Zhu Shou, Chen Ying and others felt that they only needed to reprimand and should not go too deep. Is it possible that they really wanted to use weapons for a barbarian monarch?
Xu Youzhen, on the other hand, never expressed his position, because in his opinion, His Majesty has not spoken yet, and when Your Majesty will speak later, wouldn't it be nice to slightly integrate His Majesty's thoughts with mine and echo His Majesty's thoughts.
After Zhu Jianshen listened to the ministers' narration, he nodded slightly and said, "What you all said makes sense. I also have some opinions. I hope you can correct me."
The ministers nodded quickly and saluted.
"At this time, I, the Ming Dynasty, don't know much about North Korea. It would be inappropriate to make any decision now. I feel that Xu Du Yushi can act expeditiously after arriving in North Korea."
"North Korea was named after Emperor Taizu of the Ming Dynasty. It is adjacent to Liaodong and the Liaoping Prefecture of the Ming Dynasty. If the political situation in North Korea is unstable, it will definitely affect the return of the Jurchen ethnic group in our Liaoping Prefecture."
"Another point is that within the Jurchen territory, in addition to Jianzhouwei Jurchens, there are other Jurchen tribes. Although I don't know how many there are, but since we have done this, we must do it thoroughly. The Ming Dynasty will make every Jurchen tribe it can see All of them will be brought under his command and incorporated into military households."
Although Zhu Jianshen talked about Korea, he still transferred most of his attention to the Jurchens in Korea.
Maybe he was really wary of the Jurchens deep down in his heart.
