Section 40: Affordable (3)

Santou was furious! Isn’t this called interfering with other countries? Then what does it count? Li Xi’s father almost brought back to China to house arrest. If it weren’t for the Minister of Rites Waren and others who took turns to advise, the whole country would beg for the whole country, and they were afraid that Dayuanjun would become a prisoner. Even so, China would never let him go. He gave Li Shihui the title of Dayuanjun, and then immediately sent him to Jiangzhou to reward the mansion, and stipulated that he would never take a step forward in Jiangzhou without asking for an order, which was considered a house arrest under another situation. In this case, how could Li Xi dare to violate China’s requirements? I am afraid that the angels of the Chinese emperor would arrive in Seoul, which would be the day when the envoys to North Korea returned home in shame!

"We cannot agree to this adult's words. How can it be considered as interfering in the internal affairs of other countries with third countries with documents?"

"This is naturally different. What our country is worried about is that your country will do any disrespectful and illegal acts towards North Korea in the future. The so-called "prevention of problems and escalation" must always be ahead for the whole country. As for the North Korean lord who is willing to drive away your envoys under the will of our emperor, it is beyond our country's ability to interfere."

"A mandate from His Majesty the Emperor of your country came to the hands of the King of Korea. In addition to obeying the orders, can he have a second way to go?"

"This is a talk between the two countries. Saixiang Jun always pays attention to each other's etiquette and law, and do not hold a gun and stick when speaking!" Gan Ziyi said with a smile, "As for whether the Korean king has a sense of filial piety and obedience to the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty, whether he obeys the order and issues an order to interrupt his contacts with your country, this is just your speculation and may not be counted."

Saigo Takamori was still talking about it, and Sanjo Shimi stopped him. He could see that this Gan Ziyi was a scoundrel and had nothing to communicate with such a person. He turned to Yi, "Your country uses a trick to get rid of the firewood from the bottom of the pot to interact with the two countries. I really have nothing to say. I just don't understand one thing, so I ask the prince for advice."

"Oh? What is it?"

"*** The exchanges between our country and North Korea, and even make requests to your country, are just to enhance the friendship between the two countries and to communicate with each other. It is a great help to both ourselves and others. I just don't understand why your country always holds this attitude, drives away the officials in Ryukyu in front and threatens the Korean king in the back, and even refuses the establishment of an envoy and consulate in your capital, which is so dispelling people from thousands of miles away. Compared with Zhutaixi and other countries, it is always kind to the previous example of being generous and favorable, and it is so much more than that. It is really regrettable!"

This not only made the people curious, but also the confusion that Yi and others could not understand. The emperor's hatred for the people was not at all, and it could not be explained no matter how he explained it. Yiqiang endured the ** he looked at Gan Ziyi and gritted his teeth and waited.

Gan Ziyi did not disappoint him. He laughed and took over the topic again. "No one in the Qing Dynasty knows about this matter. Only by asking our emperor in person can you know it. The current situation should be changed? I don't know what kind of heart your country has in mind?"

Sanjo Shimi was very disappointed when she saw that the other party was not deceived. Her words just now were clearly playing the card of sympathy for people, which was also a conclusion achieved by the monarch and ministers in the *** side after many days of consultation. Now the Qing Dynasty is in full swing, and it is impossible to fight against the other party by force, so she had to work hard on these small details. People who are well aware that the Chinese people are good at face and have friendship, and use this method as a way to keep things in hiding, the next thing will be much easier to solve. Unexpectedly, this newly-appeared minister ignored it completely? The deputy minister of Shimazu frowned secretly. As soon as this Gan appeared, he completely grasped the initiative in the talks. If it lasted for a long time, it would be a great disadvantage to his country!

"The incident of Ryukyu is an old system that has been inherited. The officials and civilians first lived on the island to avoid the wind and waves on the sea. Later, they saw that the people's livelihood on the island was declining and they intended to help with the development, so they had the current situation. What your country wants us to..."

"I said it wrong again!" Gan Ziyi did not leave any color on this detail, and interrupted the other party's words for the second time, "It was not what our country wanted. It was originally the territory of my Qing Dynasty, and the people stayed there, but it was just a temporary cheap system. Now that we are going to withdraw, how can we say it is a request? Your envoy should pay more attention to your words!"

Sanjo Shimi was so angry that she couldn't say a word. While sitting at the meeting, Maijiro Omura was humiliated and said loudly, "You are so troublesome, right? Now that you are struggling with the matter of being fucked, aren't you afraid of insulting your Qing minister's demeanor?"

"You are Omura Yajiro who serves as the Ministry of War, right?" Gan Ziyi looked at him with a bright look. "You have translated the military texts of the Netherlands, Britain and other countries back then, and you think you are familiar with Western learning. Don't you know that these diplomatic matters and the fights between the words and words are the details of these traits?"

After a few words, Omura Yajiro was speechless, but China was proud. Katsuko ignored everyone and stared at Sanjo Mimi and continued, "It's almost time for Shin-shi, and the keys of the palace gate are about to be set. If we wait until then, today's meeting minutes will be submitted until tomorrow before our country's emperor. Time is limited, please let you come up with a clear reply. We can also reply to the emperor."

"We can guarantee your country that we withdraw from Ryukyu. However, before the first day of the first lunar month next year, I am afraid that it will not be able to do it. I hope your country will be given a few days of gratitude."

“When is the grace end?”

"My country hopes that it can be extended to March 1st next year."

"No. It's up to the 30th day of the first lunar month. It's expected that the delay of thirty days is enough for the *** people to prepare."

The two sides bargained and refused to give in to each other. Finally, they decided to withdraw from Ryukyu territory before February 30 next year (this is all the lunar calendar). After this matter was discussed, Sanji Shimei no longer questioned North Korea and said, "As a neighboring country with China, China and the *** have been in constant trade relations for hundreds of years. His Majesty the Emperor of my country hopes that China can let go of its arms, open the coastal provinces, and allow merchant ships to travel and do business. Various regulations and tax rules are just like the previous examples of Thailand and other countries."

"This matter is not something we can decide. After the emperor returns, the emperor will decide."

As Shen Shi approached, the meeting ended, the *** people lined up to say goodbye, Yi and others took a few steps and turned back to the hall, "Your Majesty,..."

"This kind of verbal battle, even if you win a great victory, is really not very useful. It is just a warning to the people of the Qing Dynasty that I am not talented." He no longer had the spirit of the negotiating table just now, and became dying. "Do you know? The people of *** are the most ambitious. Since the black ship incident in the third year of Xianfeng, they have known that the country is closed to the limits of time. Therefore, they changed their course and were determined to be enterprising. They learned from the Faxis and spared no effort."

"...This is a great good thing for ***. But it is a very annoying thing for other countries located in neighboring countries like ***. Like the UK, *** is an island country, with narrow land and insufficient resources. The only way to make progress is to expand outward." He said while looking at Yi and Wenxiang, "All of these things, you can see the clues in the future just by looking at the UK's expansion pace in the past two hundred years."

"The Emperor's Holy Order is extremely." Wen Xiang said, "I have been in charge of the General Administration for a long time. Yu Taixi and other countries have a little knowledge of the political affairs of many years. It is indeed as the Emperor said, and indeed as the Emperor said!"

The emperor nodded bitterly, "But compared to the British, the *** people are more powerful. There are two advantages. First, since ancient times, *** has achieved the strengths of Chinese classics and cultural relics. Therefore, in the hearts of the *** people, they have the same moral sense as the Chinese people. Let me give an example. Since ancient times, China has said that civil and military officials have been advised to die and fight to the death. It can be regarded as the principle of action of official civil and military officials. In ***, this point has been fully developed. Warriors respect the promise and commit suicide after committing life and death, which has become a trend. Failed samurai, facing the rebuke of the superior, even commit suicide without hesitation to show their ambitions."

"Saptum?"

"Hey, this is the most harsh way to express one's will. I have never seen it before, but I have heard of it." He gestured with his hands on his lower abdomen, "Insert the knife from the left side of the abdomen, cut horizontally, and then a companion stands behind him and cuts from the back of his neck with a long knife. It is important to have one knife to the end, but the head should not be put to the ground. It is best to keep the skin and flesh connected, and cover the recipient's face all over his chest to achieve the goal of seeing people without any face is the top technology."

Yi didn't care about his disgust and asked again, "Your Majesty, do you think that *** people are two points stronger than Britain, and there is one more?"

"There is another point, even more annoying. The people are composed of a single nation, and the cohesion and centripetal force of the people are not comparable to the United Kingdom. Once this cohesion and centripetal force are gathered together, it is a very powerful force. It is just like now," his face turned serious, saying word by word, "Whether it is the establishment of an embassy and consulate in North Korea or the residence of Ryukyu, it is achieved in the years after the Meiji Restoration in the 17th year of Xianfeng. In just three years, the footprints have already stepped out of the *** Islands. What if I wait for another 10 or 20 years?"

"Since the emperor is at this time, he has learned that the person is powerful and the country is traitorous. Why not make plans early and not allow him to take advantage of the situation?"

"How is it so easy? People's ambition to expand will never be restrained because of my Daqing. On the contrary, people's personality is like the strongest typhoon on the sea. Once formed, they will unstoppably start. It is absolutely impossible to force them to restrain themselves. So I said that there will be a great war between China and Japan sooner or later. We will fight until one of them has destroyed the country and the seeds will be destroyed before we can give up."

Wen Xiang has been thinking about everything the emperor talked about at the negotiating table since just now, and now he has gained something in his heart. "I think, this is what the emperor just said, the effect of the cohesion and centripetal force of the *** people is added."

"It's almost the same." The emperor said, "What makes me even more embarrassed is that after such a lesson, I am afraid that I will learn more and more vigorously. At that time, I will be difficult to cure!" He smiled bitterly and shook his head, quoting a sentence from Cao Cao in the Three Kingdoms, "If you don't die, you will be alone!"

Yi and others looked pale, and the emperor spoke ominously, but they didn't know what it meant? "Your Majesty, what is the matter of opening up all the people and allowing Chinese people to do business?"

"Drag them first. I will give you the decree at that time."

Yi nodded and said no more, so he planned to arrange a ritual rack to send the emperor back to the palace. Baoqiu, who was on the other side, suddenly interjected, "Emperor, Rong Nucai asked boldly, "Is the emperor still here?"

***************************************************

*** The man returned to Guanyi where he lived, used tea and sat around San Meishi's room to discuss the next countermeasures, "...Who is this Gan Jun? Does anyone know?"

Before this trip, the *** people had found all the information of the Qing Dynasty's Beijing officials that they could find. They listed all the information of the military department, the cabinet, the imperial court, the princes and ministers, and even the detailed information of all the students obtained from the scientific research after the ninth year of Xianfeng. The officials from the General Administration Office who were about to deal with them were the key targets. But they didn't know what the origin of Gan Ziyi, who came out of thin air, was?

The two of them in charge of the affairs of the tragedy were Xin Inoue and Aritomo Yama Prefecture. They immediately stood up after hearing this, pressed their hands on the outside of their thighs, and bowed at 90 degrees. "This is all our poor work and some dereliction of duty. Please forgive me!"

This kind of bowing posture is already the highest apology method, but at this moment, it has no effect. Sanjo Shimi rolled her eyes unmoved, "Subishima, what do you think?"

"Such an important official who is valued by the Chinese emperor and responsible for Japanese relations should not have his information?" Deputy Shimatsumi looked extremely puzzled. "And from his words, we can hear that the members of our side who went to China this time were very familiar with each other. Judging from the emotions that Inoue and Yama Prefecture could obtain, China has not conducted in-depth research on the *** for a long time. So I think this person must have had a certain amount of life experience in the ***. The Chinese emperor suddenly issued an order to ask us to communicate in Chinese, which was also to cover up the fact that this person might be able to understand Japanese."

The words of the Deputy Shimashima Seiko were reasonable and were praised by everyone for a time, but that was not enough. After all, Gan Ziyi's origin was not well known to him, especially Chinese officials, and he had to be close to the emperor and could not give a complete answer. After some comments among the court officials, only Sushun could meet the conditions.

*** The man Yu Sushun is not unfamiliar with him. He was promoted from the position of the nine-sect admiral, the nine-sect admiral, and for twenty years, he has almost never left the imperial front. He is favored by a very limited number of people such as Zeng Guofan. It is too difficult to inquire from Zeng Guofan, and there is also a risk of being alerted to the enemy. Sushun is the best.

So, the deputy Shima Hoshimon led Inoue Shinto to dress up, went out of the palace, went straight to Sushun's mansion, and went to pay homage. Sushun had heard the emperor's words, and he secretly felt aroused in his heart. Will the *** people be so obedient, so he took the initiative to go to his own mansion and send money to him? Shortly after returning home, a servant came to the hall with a famous sting, "Master, a few people came outside, and I want to see the master."

"Who is it?"

"I don't know. This is their name."

Sushun took it over and took a look: I was the last time Yusheng, and Izumi Kin was begging the Lord Yuting under the door of Lord Yuting. The word "Secret" was written with a dot and strokes, and it was obvious that it had been put into practice for many years. So Sushun knew that the playful meat was coming. "Call them in."

The servant led a few people through the corridor and walked slowly towards the main hall. The Su Mansion was no longer the Pichaihutong in the capital. In the eighth year of Xianfeng, the old house in Pichaihutong was confiscated by the court. When Su Shun returned to Beijing after his post in Shanxi, the emperor also paid his house in the north of Beijing, not far from Weng's Mansion. However, the difference was that there was a corner of the pond water brought from Yuquan Mountain in the courtyard, which surrounded the hall, adding a bit of charm.

Deputy Shima Hoshima and Inoue Kin are both important officials of the *** government. This time, they went on a mission with the delegation. In addition to serving as a mission, they also had the role of inquiry and waiting. Especially for Deputy Shima Hoshima, he is a top-notch talent in ***. He has long been unwilling to be moved by external things, but when he sees the scenery in Sushun Mansion, he still has to admire that he does not know the word "wealth" if he is not a great country in China!

Along the way, the ground was covered with greenery, cold plums planted on both sides of Langyuan Road, and even hundreds of lonely bamboos swaying in the wind - shouldn't this kind of thing only grow in the south? Why did it move north? Can it be planted alive?

While looking at it, he followed the servants of Su Mansion through the corridor and passed the cave. Soon, he turned a corner before his eyes and saw the main hall. Deputy Shima Hoshimon and Inoue Kin walked into the hall. Su Shun had already stood up to greet him. They bowed down first. Although they were ***ers, they were very decent as they moved. "No matter how late, I pay homage to the elders."

"I dare not take such a title. Please get up, please get up." Sushun asked the two to get up, and they returned to their seats. He ordered the servants to offer tea. Then he carefully looked at it. Both of them were not very tall, wearing suits and top hats in their hands, with a quiet and dignified expression. "Who is your lord?"

"Midai Deputy Hoshima Hoshi, this is the companion of the young man, named Inoue Kin."

Su Shun nodded, "The two came from the distance of *** and were guests. But please forgive me for taking the liberty. Where did the word "birth" come from?"

"I'm not hiding it. I'm an Eastern person, but I admire Chinese culture for a long time. This time I went to Beijing with the delegation to seek closeness to Chinese figures. And if you talk about the number one person worthy of looking up to in the Qing Dynasty, it's the old man. Therefore, I'm not taking the liberty and visiting the door without any risk. Please don't blame me."
