Just as Zhao Peng and Tokugawa Jiazuna were walking on the road, another girl in a kimono walked out of the city, and a group of samurai surrounded the girl. Zhao Peng looked at the woman carefully and saw that the woman was still very cute, with big eyes and skin that was shattered. The only disadvantage was that she was a little shorter, probably less than 1.5 meters away, but her short-sized figure and fat baby face looked like a twelve or three-year-old loli.

The girl with loli-faced face walked straight to Zhao Peng, bowed, and spoke stiff Chinese: "The little girl Chiyohime has met the envoy of the Ming Kingdom!"

Seeing that my sister came, Tokugawa Izunobu hurriedly introduced: "This is my sister Chiyohime, but it's a pity that my sister is already married, otherwise I would beg my sister to Lord Tadaoyōhou."

Although Tokugawa Family Tsuna showed some regrets, he had the idea of ​​borrowing seeds for his sister. Japanese women were much more open than Chinese women. During the Song Dynasty, many Japanese women came to China to borrow seeds. At this time, Tokugawa Family Tsuna saw that Zhao Peng was tall and handsome, so he had the idea of ​​borrowing seeds for his sister.

"Please, please come in." Tokugawa Izunobu and Tokugawa Chiyohime invited Zhao Peng and others into the city.

The owner Tokugawa Izunomi led the way, and Zhao Peng followed the Jinyiwei and the Ming soldiers and walked into the Edo Castle.

Edo Castle is located in Chiyoda District, Tokyo later, with a circle of moats around it and the highest point in the middle. Outside the castle is the city where low-ranking samurai, merchants and civilians live in Edo. There are about 100 families in the castle, and many relatives of shoguns are senior officers and their confidants.

Zhao Peng and his group walked into the Edo Castle, and Tokugawa Family Tsuna led everyone into the Tianshou Pavilion. The Edo Tianshou Pavilion was burned in the original time and space with the Mingli fire in 1657. The Edo Fire burned for two days and two nights, killing more than 30,000 people. Since then, there has been no Tianshou Pavilion in Edo Castle. However, there has not been a fire at this time, and the Edo Tianshou Pavilion is still there.

The exterior of the Tensou Pavilion looks like a Chinese city tower. In the Tensou Pavilion, there are offices, bedrooms, kitchens, bathrooms and other facilities of the Shogun. The Shogun Tokugawa Yatsutsu lives in it.

Zhao Peng and others were not polite, and sat down in a tatami room in Tianshou Pavilion. Tokugawa Chiyohime sat next to Zhao Peng and leaned obediently on his shoulder.

In fact, Tokugawa Chiyohime married Tokugawa Mitsuto as early as three years old. At this time, Tokugawa Mitsuto was sitting opposite Zhao Peng, but when he saw his wife trying to cuckold herself, Tokugawa Mitsuto seemed to have not seen it.

Because Chinese people are tall and handsome, they are much better looking than shorter Japanese people. As early as the Tang Dynasty in China, Japanese people were very inferior to their height, so Japanese people like to send women to China to borrow seeds.

"General Tokugawa, we came this time for the friendly cooperation between the Ming and Japan." Zhao Peng said. More than 100 Japanese people were killed in the "misunderstanding" that happened just now, Zhao Peng did not mention a single word.

What do you mention? There is no need to apologize if you beat the Japanese to death. If you apologize, they think you are weak and can be bullied. If you can make him surrender with powerful force, they are pugs. Although Zhao Peng is a history novices, he knows that they bully the Japanese and are afraid of the strong.

However, there is one advantage for the Japanese, that is, before the Qing Dynasty, they had a strong yearning for Chinese civilization. Until before World War II, the Japanese claimed to be the heirs of Chinese civilization. They believed that the Qing Dynasty interrupted Chinese civilization and that they were the inheritors.

In World War II, Japan was defeated by the United States, which completely changed its concepts, completely separated from the Chinese civilization circle, and turned to the West, which was much more powerful than itself.

"Of course, the Ming Dynasty was originally a friend of our Japanese friends, and we were friends. In fact, China has always been the country that we Japanese respect the most. It was just that the Mongols and Yuan Dynasty destroyed the Song Dynasty, so both sides were a little unhappy. Later, the Ming Dynasty drove away the Mongols and restored the Chinese civilization. Of course, we regard you as good friends." Mitsuto Tokugawa said.

Although Tokugawa Izunobu was the general of the Edo Shogunate, because he was too young and was only twelve years old, the person who really spoke at this time was his brother-in-law, the twenty-seven-year-old Tokugawa Mitsuto, and Tokugawa Mitsuto was also the vassal lord of Ohashi's vassal.

Tokugawa Mitsuto personally made tea for Zhao Peng and the others. This person is good at tea ceremony and has very strong martial arts skills.

Zhao Peng took out a coin from his sleeve and placed it on the table: "I wonder if General Guangyou has seen such a coin?"

Tokugawa Mitsuto picked up the coins, glanced at them and smiled: "Don't you know, Tadaoy, right? In Japan, all these coins are circulating in China. The coins in the Ming Dynasty are of good quality, with high gold, silver, copper content, and exquisite workmanship. More importantly, these coins cannot be counterfeited at all. The counterfeit coins forged by illegal businessmen can be seen at a glance. Therefore, our Japanese military and civilians like this coins very much. Now the vassal lords pay taxes to us and pay salaries to our generals and samurai, and they use this coins."

Zhao Peng smiled and said, "I have an idea to drive the Ming Central Silver to your Edo Castle and mint coins in your Edo city. This will save a lot of transportation costs, and the profits of coins will also be part of your Tokugawa family! In addition, if you control the right to mint coins, you will not be afraid that the lords below will be disobedient."

Tokugawa Mitsuto's eyes were shiny. This is a good idea. During the Warring States Rebellion in Japan for many years, after more than a hundred years of self-killing among the various vassal lords, Tokugawa Hideyoshi defeated most of the vassal lords. Later, Tokugawa Hideyoshi died in the Wanli Korean War, and the Tokugawa family took the opportunity to destroy the Tokugawa family and established a unified shogunate in Japan, which began the shogunate era.

Although in Japan, all the vassal lords are nominally surrendered to the Tokugawa shogunate, the Tokugawa family knows that the vassal lords below must have their own ambitions.

In the original time and space, when the Satsuma clan was in the 19th century, the Satsuma clan led the joining forces with Choshu, Tosa, and Hibimaki Sanfan launched the anti-shogawa movement. The four southwestern vassals overthrew the Tokugawa shogunate, and the Meiji government moved from Kyoto to Edo, and Edo was renamed Tokyo. After the Meiji Emperor arrived in Tokyo, the Meiji Restoration began.

Later, through the Southwest War, Emperor Meiji, with the support of Britain and the United States, eliminated the four southwestern feudals and established a stable emperor rule. This resulted in a series of gambles such as the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895 and the Russo-Japanese War. The Japanese, who tasted the sweetness of invasion again and again, finally expanded their ambitions and launched the September 18th Incident, and then to the July 7th Incident, and launched a full-scale war of aggression.

In fact, in modern history, Britain and the United States have always supported Japan. In 1894, the Japanese fleet arrived in Hawaii, which scared the United States. Therefore, the United States used a series of conspiracy to lead Japan's ambitions from the ocean to the mainland, which led to the Sino-Japanese War of 1894 and the Russo-Japanese War. Therefore, the United States is the root cause of Japan's invasion of China.
