Chapter 1120 Respect Wang Xiangyi
Looking at Tokugawa Hideaki, Zhu Xu walked in with a smile. Soon the imperial guards cleaned up and arranged the tables and chairs.
Tokugawa Akihide looked at Zhu Xu with a very eager look, followed behind him, and said, "Your Majesty, as long as you withdraw your support for the Shimahara rebellion, the inner government promises that it will guarantee that it will no longer have any intentions against North Korea, and will also submit a statement, respect the Ming Dynasty for China and pay tribute."
The inner court, Tokugawa Iemitsu is currently serving as the inner minister, commonly known as the inner court.
Zhu Xu sat down on the chair, looked at Tokugawa Akihide, and smiled gently, "I have the idea of peace. The question is, how do you believe in me, believe that the Ming Dynasty will never have any ideas about Japan, or, how do you guarantee that your public opinion will have no other ideas about North Korea and China?"
Tokugawa Akihide immediately frowned and looked entangled on his face. Although he was just starting out, he was not stupid.
How can he ensure this situation? He is doing everything in front of him with difficulty, let alone decades or even hundreds of years later?
Zhu Xu blocked the Tokugawa Akihiko with one sentence, and looked at the middle-aged man beside him and said, "Your name is Qingshan Turtle Pine?"
The middle-aged man's face changed slightly, and he immediately bowed slightly and said, "Green Mountain Turtle and Pine see Your Majesty."
Zhu Xu nodded and said with a slight approval, "Well, your father is a good talent, I admire him very much. You came to my Ming Dynasty this time, and I guess you have something to say to me, right?"
Aoyama Tutsu's father is Aoyama Tadatsushi, who is an old minister of Tokugawa Ieyasu. He named him the Tokugawa Ieki, who was the third-generation retainer of Tokugawa Ieki.
Qingshan Turtle Pine did not expect his identity or was exposed, and his face remained calm, saying, "Your Majesty, the villain has brought the most sincere peace in my hall, and hopes to make a eternal love with the Ming Dynasty, become a harmonious neighbor, and eliminate the dangers of war."
"Please reply to General Tokugawa. I have received his sincere heart. I have the same idea. I hope he can enter Beijing, meet and have a meeting with me." Zhu Xu said in a spring breeze.
Qingshan Turtle Pine listened to Zhu Xu's words, his eyes slightly condensed.
First of all, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty said more nonsense than him, and there was no reality at all. Second, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty asked his hall to come to the capital for an audience. Isn’t this even more nonsense?
Tokugawa Hideaki came over a little, looked at the green mountain turtle pine, turned to Zhu Xu, and said calmly: "Your Majesty, we are here for peace. As long as you withdraw the soldiers on Kyuko Island, return the Satsuma vassal to the inner palace, and withdraw the troops in Ryukyu, the inner palace is willing to guarantee to the Ming Dynasty that it will no longer invade North Korea!"
Zhu Xu was a little surprised and unconsciously touched her chin.
Are these Japanese people trying to make huge concessions when they don’t want to come out at a price? Or are they not crying without seeing the coffin?
Cao Huachun and others behind him also looked strange. It was the first time that someone had spoken so hard in front of their emperor that the lion spoke so loudly.
Zhu Xu picked up Xiao Ciye, sat on the chair, looked at Tokugawa Hideaki and said, "Do you think this will achieve permanent peace and perish the disaster of war?"
Tokugawa Hideaki was very eager for this and immediately said: "Yes! Your Majesty, as long as you are willing to give up the war, our country of Japan will not resort to force. We can live in peace and never start a war!"
"My idea is different from yours. Do you want to hear it?" Zhu Xu poured a cup of tea for Xiao Ciye and said.
Tokugawa Hideaki walked to Zhu Xu, bowed and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty also ask for advice!"
Zhu Xu leaned on the chair, thought with a look of thought, and slowly said, "In my opinion, the root causes of war are nothing more than two types, one is resource demand, and the other is psychological demand. Resources, including land, food, minerals, gold and silver, are not worried about poverty but uneven, and fight for each other, which arises from this. The psychological demand is more complicated, with a sense of security, ambition, impulse, ignorance, etc., and these two are not solved in just a few words, do you think?"
Tokugawa Hideaki frowned and thought, then a cold sweat appeared on his head. He was very smart. He could understand Zhu Xu's words, and then he understood that "peace" is really not something that anyone can decide in just a few words. It's too complicated!
Tokugawa Hideaki couldn't figure it out, so he thought desperately, with more and more cold sweats on his head, his facial features gradually distorted, and he was in extremely painful.
Qingshan Turtle Pine saw all this in her eyes, her face became more and more gloomy, she didn't speak, and watched coldly.
After a while, Tokugawa Hideaki seemed to give up, gasped, bowed again, and said, "Your Majesty, please give me advice!"
Zhu Xu smiled, put his hands on the handle of the chair, and became more majestic, saying: "About resources, this is born from heaven and earth, and human power cannot be changed. Since resources cannot be changed, then change people. If it is 'the world' and the resources are shared, there will naturally be no danger and no more wars. If it is a world of harmony, the system can be used to restrain people's hearts, and all struggles can be eliteized and higher-level, and compromise at the lowest cost to ensure the development of the country. In this way, there will be no more wars in the world, and the blessing of all people!"
Qingshan Turtle Pine looked up at Zhu Xu with a serious look.
He was not Tokugawa Hideaki. He heard from Zhu Xu's words that ambition was even just a corner of the chessboard, a very small corner!
Tokugawa Hideaki thought about Zhu Xu's words seriously. He thought it made sense, but after thinking about it carefully, cold sweat gradually emerged from behind, and he couldn't help but tremble.
If you want permanent peace, you must first achieve "Great Harmony in the World". What is the way to achieve "Great Harmony in the World"?
A more brutal war than ever!
Tokugawa Hideaki looked at Zhu Xu and didn't know how to speak for a moment.
The Emperor in front of him was obviously thinking more, deeper and more wiser than he had, but he was determined to resort to force, so how could he persuade him?
The green mountain turtle pine is not as much as Tokugawa Akihisho. He only knew that the Ming emperor in front of him was determined to send troops to Japan!
The Shimahara Rebellion has already involved most of the shogunate energy. If the Ming people interfere heavily, how will they deal with it?
Aoyama Turtle Pine brought Tokugawa Iemitsu's secret order. He glanced at Tokugawa Akihide, stepped forward, crossed him, and said directly to Zhu Xu: "Your Majesty, if you are willing to give up sending troops to our country of Japan, we are willing to offer a gift that is satisfactory to the Ming Dynasty!"
"Tell me," Zhu Xu said leisurely.
Qingshan Turtle Pine lowered her head and said, "Your Majesty, as long as your country withdraws troops from Jiuguo Island and reduces the Ryukyu garrison and allows our country to join the maritime trade, we promise not to attack North Korea again and are willing to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty."
Zhu Xu gently patted the handle of the chair with his right hand, and his eyes were wandering around the green mountain turtle pine and Tokugawa Hideaki's face.
These Japanese people really don’t cry until they see the coffin. At this time, they dare to ask for so much, and they have almost nothing to do in essence!
Zhu Xu looked at the two people, his eyes turned slightly, his tone was calm, and he said gently, "What do you think of 'Supreme King Xiangyi'?"
Although Hideaki Tokugawa has some research on Chinese culture and knows the origin of "Respecting King Xiangyi", why... ask him this?
Qingshan Turtle and Pine were also stunned, but then his face changed.
China's "Respecting King Xiangyi" came from the Zhou Dynasty. At that time, the Zhou emperor's authority declined. In order to exclude others and fight for dominance in the world, the vassal states all shouted "Respecting King Xiangyi" and attacked their opponents in the name of "orthodox" supporting the Zhou emperor.
If it is placed in Japan, it means respecting the "orthodox" status of the Emperor of Japan and eliminating other vassal states!
The first one to be eliminated will be the most powerful Edo Tokugawa!
Tokugawa Hideaki quickly reacted with a pale expression.
"Respecting King Xiangyi" has great righteousness and irrefutable. If the Ming Dynasty invaded Japan under this banner, they would be really angry!
