This is tantamount to acknowledging that Japan and the Song Dynasty have equal diplomatic relations.

But Japan was very disrespectful. Three years later, it still hadn't replied to the letter of credence, which really made Song Huizong a little worried.

In Japan at this time, Genji interfered in the government affairs and pursued a closed-door policy. Only merchants from the Song Dynasty were allowed to go, while Japan was not allowed to sail to the sea.

In order to get rid of his relatives and Genji, Emperor Shirakawa voluntarily abdicated and became Emperor Shirakawa. He set up a separate court in addition to the imperial court to recruit and promote middle- and lower-level samurai.

To put it simply, the Emperor rebelled!

The two power groups in Japan were fighting fiercely. How could they be in the mood to play diplomacy with Song Huizong?

Xue Daoguang left Hangzhou and went to Mingzhou to discuss with Lou Yi, and then went to Japan with the merchants.

Less than half a month after he went to sea, a man named Fang La began to rebel.

History has changed, although not much, and it is all related to the Zhu family and his son.

In order to build a glass cave, Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty ordered all official and private kilns to pay tribute to the glass. The people of Jiangxi were miserable, which led to this year's Jiangxi Uprising, which was larger than ever in history. Many kiln workers joined the uprising.

Building a fleet to go to sea in search of immortals also increased the burden on the people of Zhejiang and Zhejiang. Not only did they need materials for shipbuilding, but they also forcibly recruited crew members and food to go to sea. Even the goods for trade were extorted from merchants.

Most of the strange stones, flowers and trees in the glass cave were forcibly collected from Zhejiang and Zhejiang.

The Fangla Uprising was advanced several months.

However, the Song and Jin countries had not yet formed an alliance, and the Song army had not assembled in Tokyo, so they could not be directly mobilized to suppress the uprising.

Fang La in this time and space has more time to expand his territory.
