Chapter 5 The Secret of the Emperor (I) (《》)

"Your Highness Jiaren, I'm so sorry." The German Emperor looked at the small island man and immediately bowed slightly, with concern on his face, "Please rest assured, I will arrange for the best doctor in Germany to carefully treat you."

"Thank you for your kindness." The little man still had that stubborn expression. The Prussian beard still had a little grass clipping. Judging from the scratches on his body, he fell down really hard.

He immediately bowed at a standard forty-five degrees angle, and the corners of his mouth seemed to twitch due to pain, which made Zheng Yu feel a little embarrassed: "I'm sorry. I'm not good at equestrianism, which has caused trouble for you and Zheng Jun."

"Your Highness Jiaren, I need to check your injuries carefully." Zheng Yu turned to William II and said, "Your Majesty, how about you escorting Jiaren back to the palace for treatment?"

Emperor German was slightly stunned, and then said a little dissatisfied: "Your Highness Jiaren doesn't seem to be seriously injured. Your Highness is a strong and brave man, not inferior to the Prussian man! I have always admired this. I think that Your Highness Jiaren returns to the palace with this manly medal, which is the style that the Eastern Warrior should have. Why should His Highness the Prince be accompanied by His Highness himself?"

Zheng Yu admitted that he did underestimate the German Emperor. Speaking of playing with the island nation, this person is familiar with him.

The German Emperor said without any doubt: "I am in a good mood today. Your Highness Zheng, the hunting ground here is so beautiful. I personally guide you to feel the breath of Germany and exercise the hunting power given to us by God. Isn't this a pleasure?"

Zheng Yu looked at the future Emperor Taisho with helplessness and bowed sincerely: "I'm really sorry, Jiarenjun, you can't refuse your Majesty's kindness. I'm so sorry, so I'm asking you to go back to the palace first. You will definitely visit me in person next night, so please forgive me."

William II looked at Zheng Yu with some fun, but Zheng Yu was still sincere, sincere, and respectfully smiling.

In the evening, the German Emperor, who returned home happily, was obviously very happy. While praising the prey that had turned into various delicacies, he vigorously showed off the strength of Germany and toasted frequently. Zheng Yu was extremely low-key and responded to the German Emperor appropriately. He tried his best to let the German Emperor control the rhythm of the audience. William II couldn't help but laugh happily, drank a few more drinks, and finally apologized with drunkenness and went back to the bedroom to rest.

Zheng Yu accompanied Prince Jiaren to his bedroom, and the two future heirs of the Eastern countries finally sat face to face together.

After seeing this famous brain-dead man in history, Zheng Yu had a plan. Although this person's performance was still a little different from his impression, the successful lobbying of the German Emperor during the day undoubtedly increased Zheng Yu's confidence.

Zheng Yu has his own thoughts on the future Asian order. Although he still can't figure out the meridians of his emperor's adoptive father, he wanted to put some effort into the island prince to lay some groundwork, and he also wanted to support his adoptive father.

"Your Highness Jiaren, you are suffering." Zheng Yu's eyes were full of sadness, but he spoke Japanese. Although he was not very fluent and his tone was a bit inconsistent, he should be considered a kind local accent for this down-and-out foreign land and humiliated island prince, right?

"His Highness Zheng Yu," Jiaren looked at him with a complicated look, "I'm causing you trouble."

"Forget it, I think His Majesty the Emperor is very happy." Zheng Yu smiled self-deprecatingly, "In his eyes, the Crown Prince of the East is just a toy to find happiness. How big is there between you and me?"

A trace of gloom flashed in Jiaren's eyes.

"The strong prey on the weak is the essence of this world." Zheng Yu sighed softly, "In the eyes of the so-called civilized world, the Eastern people are just uncivilized natives. I am already flattered to be treated so kindly today."

At this moment, Zheng Yu vaguely sensed the trace of anger in Jiaren's eyes.

"Your Highness, I'm so sorry." Jiaren stood up sincerely and bowed, "My country..."

Zheng Yu could feel Jiaren's favor for him and understand the entanglement caused by the hostility that naturally exists between China and Japan. He smiled and said, "Your Highness doesn't have to say much. The struggle for national interests is always ruthless and cruel, but this is the rule of the political game and should not hinder our personal friendship, right?"

Jiaren's face turned slightly red. Although he didn't look smart, he was naturally a little straightforward. Zheng Yu saw it and added a little favor.

"Your Highness, please forgive my frankness." Jiaren's Chinese is a bit stiff, "There are only two of us here, and there is no need to beat around the bush. I know what you mean, and I also understand your expectations for friendship between the two countries. However, as the crown prince of the island country, we must consider state affairs from the perspective of the island country."

Zheng Yu immediately looked at this person with some admiration, and vaguely felt that this person was not the purely deceased person in his impression. How could he have such a wise and foolish meaning?

"For thousands of years, the Yamato people have been trapped in an isolated island and have experienced hardships; and your country is dominating the mainland and has always been the ox of Eastern civilization." Jiaren said frankly, "Tianxun's father and his wise men advocate the restoration of great power and the great island empire rose in East Asia, and the momentum of East Asia's fortune has been completed. However, Lingzun suddenly rose in Annan, swept across China, and established a unified empire. The national fortune of our great island country was destroyed. Your country has said that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and the strength of Prussia also shows that the rise of a country must come at the cost of neighboring countries."

"Can the land of East Asia accommodate two powerful countries?" Jiaren shook his head, "I value our two countries. The cycle of luck is the way of heaven. Your country is in charge of East Asia's fortune for thousands of years. Now the time has changed. It is indeed a major change that has not been seen in a thousand years. It is also an opportunity for the prosperous island country to win East Asia. How can we lose it when we meet? Today's only thing is..."

"This is the explanation of the elders, right?" Zheng Yu stared at the island prince and suddenly said.

Jiaren was stunned, as if the prepared speech was interrupted by someone in the middle of the journey. He looked at Zheng Yu blankly for a moment and nodded involuntarily.

"Jia Renjun, they are right." Zheng Yu sighed, "If an island country wants to become a German or British in Asia, the most direct choice is to parasitize on China's body. In this way, a split and weak China is in line with the interests of the island country."

"It's a pity that they overlooked a problem." Zheng Yu shook his head and said in a heavy tone, "What will it bring if the island country does this and fails in the end? And does the island country have to take such a risk and use the entire country to bet?"

Jiaren's eyes were a little confused.

Zheng Yu secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"There are many things that seem to have the greatest choice, but often bring the worst results." Zheng Yu stared at the other party and said frankly, "The development of a country is not about gambling, but about carefully planning the future and implementing it carefully. Doing things beyond your ability rashly will only bring disaster to this country. China has been unified, has a strong army, a stretch of railway, has established an industrial system, and a strong central government. Can such a country be weakened or even dismembered by an island country? Russians? Are they reliable?"

The prince of the Big Bearded Island Kingdom also showed confusion.

"I think you all know what kind of country is Russia." Zheng Yu sighed, "This country, starting from a small Duchy of Moscow, has occupied most of the land of the Eurasian world island in hundreds of years. In recent decades, their expansion in Central Asia and the Far East has caused trouble everywhere they go, and they have always been cunning and untrustworthy. Such a greedy and shameless country has really overwhelmed China. It is unknown whether the fate of the island country is."

At this moment, Zheng Yu saw that the prince of the island country opposite was already slightly slight, and his spirit was greatly boosted.

"As Jiarenjun said, our China has stood at the peak of East Asian civilization for thousands of years. But have we ever added one army and one soldier on the land of the island country? We value our two countries, the same culture and species, and are originally brotherly countries. However, our China's heavenly countries and the world's treasures have never been sought out for you." Zheng Yu said earnestly, "Now the Westerners are strong, the Asian civilizations have gradually perished, and the Siam country has also been called independence and actually Western hawks. Only China and Japan can maintain independence. Our Eastern Confucian ethics have always advocated harmony. Our empire has always advocated mutual support, good neighborly and friendly, and common development. This kingly righteousness is the hope of independence among the Asian nations."

At this moment, he had noticed that the crown prince of the island country opposite was already shaking his heart and could not control himself.

"Jun Jiaren, I know very well that there are some things you cannot say. There are some things you may not know. I also understand that the decisions made by Lingzun and the elders are definitely not something you can shake." Zheng Yu said sincerely, "But I still want to remind you that even for those senior officials, a royal cannot trust unconditionally. They have strong factions and their own interests, and they inevitably have selfish intentions in planning the major national policies."

"As a colleague, I need to remind Your Highness," Zheng Yu emphasized his tone, "For some powerful ministers who are powerful, the status of the royal family and the fate of the empire are not impossible to be a bet at some point."

The twenty-six-year-old Masao of the island country finally shook his body.

"Actually, just think about your father's experience since his rule, recall the decisions made in the 18894-1895, and then recall the actions of the elders such as Ito over the years, you should understand who is the one who truly grasps the fate of the island country." Zheng Yu stared at the bearded man opposite him with bright eyes.

The future Emperor Taisho's expression changed and his face became obviously gloomy.

"Do you know why these people are so confident?" Zheng Yu smiled strangely.

The prince of the island country opposite looked at Zheng Yu, and his eyes gradually changed.

"Because they have some things about your father," Zheng Yu said slowly, staring at the bearded Shota opposite him without blinking, "For example, how did he become the emperor...and his true identity."

The face of the prince of the island country suddenly showed great terror that could not be curbed, and his body began to tremble slightly. Zheng Yu felt relieved, but his face became more and more serious.

"Your father is actually not the real son of Emperor Komeito, the Northern Dynasty Emperor Komei." He whispered, "his true identity is that the elders killed the original Prince Mushito and replaced Prince Junliang of the Southern Dynasty Go Daigo lineage with the strategy of Li Demodoto, His Highness Omoto Innosuke in Changzhou. I'm right?"

As soon as Zheng Yu finished speaking, the island nation opposite was already as if it was hit by a lightning bolt. He stood up suddenly, his whole body trembled violently, and the muscles on his face were twitching violently. Zheng Yu couldn't help but feel a little scared when he looked at this strange scene. After a long time, the future Emperor Taisho finally sat down dejectedly, with a pale face.

Although Zheng Yu's expression remained unchanged on the surface, he felt relieved. The other party's performance had already told him the final answer.
