Chapter 51 Welcome
The Kamakura Shogunate was the beginning of the Japan Shogunate era. To put it bluntly, it was the beginning of the dictatorship of military generals.
The so-called shogunate originally refers to the general's military tent. Since Kamakura's first general, "Genaki Tora", it has become synonymous with the Japanese military general organization.
At the beginning, Yuan Lai Chao took the "Kanto Imperial Corps" (500 Manors) awarded to him by the Emperor as the basis, gathered the generals and divided the feudals, forming a military group, thus consolidating his position in the Japanese military.
Later, Hojo Current Affairs, who served as the shogunate, fought for the power of "Kanto Rishi" from the Emperor.
The shogunate can set up lands in many manors and public lords, expanding power from the military to the political circle, further compressing the imperial power and ministerial power.
The shogunate forces also officially became the central institution in Japan in actual power, marking the arrival of the shogunate era with military generals as the core for nearly 700 years.
The Hojo Toshizo Sect that Zhao Wei wants to meet is the eighth generation of Kamakura Shogunate and the actual controller of the Japanese islands.
Departing from Hokkaido, the fleet sailed along the east coast of Honcho Island for several days. During this period, it stopped in a small coastal town called Seiko and informed the Japanese that the Song envoy was visiting.
Finally, the fleet sailed into the Sagami Beach area and docked in Kamakura.
Kamakura is a place name. Because the shogunate was established in Kamakura, it was called Kamakura Shogunate. Its roughly located is Kanagawa, a later generation.
For Zhao Wei, the impression here is limited to Sakuragi Hanamichi and Haruko Akagi. I really don’t know that it has also served as the political center of Japan.
The boat was docked at noon, which scared Zhao Wei even almost fired.
Because there are armed guards everywhere in Kamakura Port, all kinds of armored warriors are crowded with crowds.
Zhao Wei thought he was going to take them and asked the Yuan people for peace!
As a result, a minister came forward to contact him and found out that they were all here to welcome the prince of the Song Dynasty.
Moreover, let Zhao Wei and Zhao Ye wait for a while. Hojo Toshizo had already gathered officials to wait at the wharf. Emperor Uta was on his way from Tokyo, and the same person was traveling with Contemporary Guanshe, who arrived in no time.
Zhao Wei and Zhao Ye were a little confused, wouldn’t it be?
He didn't know that Japan in this era had a great love for the Central Plains dynasty. He usually had to give a virtuous monk with great etiquette, let alone the visit of two direct princes of the Zhao family.
Zhao Weiduo didn't wait. In less than an hour, a minister came to tell him that the two kings of Ning and Lu could get off the boat, and the Emperor and all the officials were waiting for him to welcome him.
Zhao Wei and Zhao Ye could only accept this calmly. There was no discomfort, because the gift of welcoming and giving is basically the same as that of the Central Plains.
As for verbal communication, it is even more not a problem, because all the officials who came to take over the envoy were from the Song Dynasty.
Just say, what do you want to hear?
Jinghu accent, or Wu Dong Mandarin, or Shu dialect, Hakka dialect, the whole translation is so complete!
During the break in the process, Zhao Wei posted it to Zhao Ye's ear: "Have you prepared the gift list?"
Zhao Ye shrank his neck, "But he didn't say it earlier! Besides, you just said to come and have a look, and didn't say give a gift?"
"Crack!" Zhao Wei was embarrassed, "I'm neglected!"
With such a big situation, if you don’t give me some gifts or something, Zhao Wei can’t stand it anymore.
I was in a dilemma and wondered whether to let Xie Mingxian write one.
As a result, a Kamakura Prefecture minister accidentally heard the two of them muttering, leaned against them without any trace, and said in Chinese: "What are your highnesses going to give? The villain asked someone to list the gift list."
Zhao Wei was stunned and thought to himself, what's the fucking operation?
He didn't understand, he was helping, or just open his mouth and ask for a gift.
The minister of the palace saw Zhao Wei being stunned and smiled, "Your Highness, don't be too worried. The villain Xie Zhongyuan is also a native of Song."
Zhao Wei immediately let go and nodded to Xie Zhongyuan to show his affection, "Then I'll have a hard time! Just write a thousand taels of gold and silver."
puff!!
Xie Zhongyuan almost choked to death, stared at Zhao Wei almost losing his composure: "Qianqianliang?"
"What?" Zhao Weixin said, "Is it less? Is it shabby?"
"Two thousand is OK."
Xie Zhongyuan: ""
After a long speechless, "Your Highness has given you too much! The Japanese small country, such a generous gift, has been despised by others."
"Oh." Zhao Wei didn't understand this, but he showed his timidity.
He turned around and glared at Zhao Ye, meaning: Where have you read the books? Why don’t you remind me?
Zhao Ye is also wronged, what does it have to do with me?
In order to avoid continuing to embarrassment, Zhao Wei simply asked Xie Zhongyuan to read and write. Anyway, the things that can be given on the boat are only gold and silver.
Finally, Xie Zhongyuan wrote a gift list of 200 gold and 500 silver and quietly stuffed it to the Song Dynasty. When the two sides passed the ceremony, they saved Shangbang's face.
Through this incident, Xie Zhongyuan naturally got close to Zhao Wei and others, and regarded it as his own.
I have to say that when there is someone on the other side, it is much more comfortable. It’s like starting a group with six or four, and you can get whatever you want.
It was also through Xie Zhongyuan, Zhao Wei and Zhao Ye that he also had a preliminary understanding of the team that came to greet Japan.
How to say it?
The leader was naturally Emperor Uta of Japan. On the left side, he was Guanshe, who was equivalent to the prime minister of the Song Dynasty. On the right side was the general of the Conquering Yi and the first official in the name of the Kamakura Shogunate.
Behind the three of them, the last seat was the famous shogunate, Hojo Toshizo.
Zhao Wei was surprised, "Don't Hojo Toshizo is the ruling man of the Japanese islands? Why are there two people in front of him besides the Emperor?"
Xie Zhong said in principle: "Kanshe is the combination of Kanshe and Regent, and he governs the emperor on behalf of the emperor. He was originally a real-powerful figure in Japan, but unfortunately, Kamakura Daxing, Kanshe became a decoration."
Zhao Wei was puzzled: "What about the general of the siege? Isn't he the chief of the shogunate? I heard that there is still 'don't be' under the general, and he is the deputy of the shogunate. It's not the turn of the power, right?"
Xie Ming, "Your Highness does not know that the position of the General of the Extermination of Yi has always been hereditary by the Kiyogawa Gen family, and occasionally the descendants of the Emperor of Heaven took over. However, during the Hojo current affairs period, the General was also undermined by the Hojo Desolate So Family, and the 'don't be solemn' since then he was also appointed by the Zong family. Therefore, he became the actual controller of the Shogunate and the Zong family was inherited."
"Oh." Zhao Wei understood, it was Hojo Desom's family who killed the Emperor, Guan She, and the General.
The powerful ministers of the Central Plains dynasty all underestimated the emperor and were powerful in the court. This is better, even the prime minister and the general are all decorated with mascots on it.
This made Zhao Wei admire the ability of the Zong family
I couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Hojo Toshisen, meaning: You are awesome!
As a result, Hojo Toshizomasa saw it and looked at Zhao Wei a few more times.
In fact, Hojo Toshizong was not old, less than thirty years old. When he was as old as Zhao Wei, he had already taken over as the shogunate to hold power, so he did not despise the two young princes of the Song Dynasty.
However, he was more concerned about Lu Wang Zhao Ye before.
After all, during the battle of Yashan, King Lu was extremely brave and awakened the deeds of the remnant Song, and even Japan knew a little about it.
Today I specially invited the Emperor to welcome him, which was also a matter of coming to see the style of King Lu of Song.
However, after observation, Hojo Toshizo discovered that King Lu was just like this. Instead, King Ning was the leader and had an extraordinary temperament.
At this moment, facing Zhao Wei's thumb, I knew it was admiration. Saran smiled and pointed at Zhao Wei, saying thanks
,
PS: Hojo Takanosen is not a person's name, but a name for a branch of the Hojo clan, the Takanosen family. The abbreviation is also called the Takanosen family, not the Hojo clan.
Then, the name of this family is very strange. I, my son, and even my son, have only one word different names, and they look like brothers.
