Shinemon pressed his sword and walked up and down the front of the courtyard, patrolling for a long time, but there were two rows of tall Kyoying guards standing in the way, like a wall, and he could not see the other side on tiptoe, so he had to give up in anger.
"Ninagawa-kun, what are you doing?"
Mitsuo Shimazu noticed that the lights were still on in Shin-Oe's gatehouse, and when he pushed the door, he saw several samurai sitting there murderously, and immediately asked alertly.
After he returned, he had already told Shinemon and others about the humiliation he had suffered in the palace, and several samurai were so angry that they really wanted to attack the residence of Yamango Province at night to regain this face.
Shimazu Mitsuo listened to their plan, was furious, and reprimanded: "Bastards must not be rich in the Ming Dynasty, it doesn't matter if we do business with our own country or not, if we don't do business with the East, we can also do business with the Nanyang countries, but we can't get the trade of the Ming Dynasty, and it will be greatly disadvantageous to the rule of His Excellency the General, so we must endure the humiliation and burden, and we must not anger the Ming court." ” After speaking, he smiled gloomily and said: "What is it to let them be proud for a while, when we return to the book, we can send troops to attack them, and they will pay the price for their arrogance." ” Shinemon said unconvinced: "Your Excellency Shimazu, in the past, it was said that the three kingdoms of Ryukyu attacked each other, and the Ming Emperor decreed that they were not allowed to fight each other, and now the mountain has been declared a vassal to the Ming Dynasty, will the Ming Dynasty allow us to invade its vassals?"
Mitsuo Shimazu smiled slyly: "The Ming Empire has also promised us to reopen the tributary trade, and when we go back, His Excellency the General can send an envoy to officially submit the credentials to the Ming Dynasty, then, we are also a subject country of the Ming Dynasty."
They are both subject countries of the Ming Dynasty, and if they have disputes with each other, they will not infringe on the face of the Ming Dynasty.
In the past few days, I have carefully learned about the news of the Ming Jingshi, and now I entered the palace to meet the Ming Emperor, and I saw their emperors and ministers with my own eyes.
Shinemon was suspicious: "Your Excellency Shimazu's words have a basis" Mitsuo Shimazu said, "Of course.
We came all the way from Hangzhou Bay, and we heard that the king of Yan in the north rebelled, and many soldiers and horses were transferred from the south of the Yangtze River, and there were great defeats, but when we arrived in Beijing, what we saw was a folk song and dance to promote peace, and the court sat down and discussed.
This year's autumn expedition of the Ming Kingdom was postponed because of the war in the north, and we went to Beijing to say, it happened that the first three boasting officials were paraded in the streets.
I have already inquired, the first place is the first of the third, the first place was originally Wang Gen, but because he was not handsome enough, he was demoted to the second, and Hu Jing, who was originally the second, was promoted to the first The most important thing" He glanced at the few warriors who were listening intently, and said, "I know a lot about the scientific expedition of the Central Plains people.
When they were interviewed by the emperor himself, the emperor only asked a question about the time.
Hehe, the north is in turmoil, and at this time, even if you don't ask about the military, you should ask about your opinion on cutting the domain But the question of this Ming Emperor is to be a gentleman, respect his affairs and then eat.
Confucius is said to be a masterpiece.
The one who gathers the greatest achievements is also the golden sound and the jade Zhenzhi.
The son is said to have four ways of a gentleman: his deeds are also respectful, his things are respectful, his support is also beneficial, and his people are righteous. ” Shinemon said blankly, "Your Excellency, what does this mean?"
Shimazu Mitsuo said: "These are the words in the four books, and the meaning is that you must be loyal to the emperor and cultivate yourself."
This, is it considered a time policy, a sage of the whole people, hehehe, an unattainable dream, the pedantic emperor is so pedantic, and he can't object or even approve of this kind of time policy question to the emperor, and the official examiner is as pedantic as the adult.
They're not the ones who do things."
When Mitsuo Shimazu said this, his gaze that swept towards everyone began to sharpen: "There is a saying in the Central Plains, called a gentleman's revenge, ten years is not too late.
Therefore, you must not spoil the great plan of the General and the humiliation inflicted on us by the people of the mountain after the great plan of His Excellency, and we will wash it away with their blood, but not now."
"Hi Yi" Several samurai stood up in convincing convincing and bowed their heads.
Xia Xun rested on the table with one hand and gently turned the delicate small teacup in his hand.
Jiang Mengxiong, Xu Shiling, Zhang Jun, and Wang Guanyu sat there straight, their hands pressed on their knees, their eyes and noses, their noses and hearts, motionless, completely recovering their habits in the army.
After a long time, their eyes moved slightly, and they glanced at Xia Xun with their residual vision, and then hurriedly returned to their positions.
The solemnity of the atmosphere made Xu Jiang on the side also begin to feel uncomfortable, and his sitting posture unconsciously straightened.
Outside, the sound of silk and bamboo music and glamour was endless, and there was faintly the laughter of men and women flirting and scolding, Xia Xun sighed, and turned his gaze to Jiang Mengxiong: "You, within one day, you have solved the double-headed Jiao near the Confucius Temple, occupied his territory, and controlled many Jifang Qinglou, shop sales, including the wharf, and thousands of splashes under your command, so not majestic."
Jiang Mengxiong grinned and said, "The boss praises" Xia Xun slapped the table lightly and scolded: "I praise you."
Jiang Mengxiong hurriedly sat up straight, and his face was tensed again.
Xia Xun turned to Xu Shiling again: "You are not bad, you bought a green building, Yingying Yanyan, group of female porridge porridge, listen to the root of the wall every day, listen to the people's Qingqing I and me, love and love, I said the thirty-six skills of Dong Xuanzi, you have probably learned all of them."
Xu Shiling grinned and smiled awkwardly.
Xia Xun turned to Zhang Jun again: "What about you?"
Zhang Jun hurriedly bowed his head and said: "I am incompetent, and now I have opened a grain and rice shop, and I haven't done anything else." ” Xia Xun snorted, turned to Wang Guanyu again, and said with a smile: "It's the autumn season, you have a good business there."
Wang Guanyu laughed dryly twice, and begged for mercy: "Boss, we used to kill people with knives, and doing this is really to catch ducks on the shelves, it's not that we don't want to do things, we really don't know how to do things."
Originally, I was expecting the adults to arrive in Jinling and be able to guide us one or two, but who knew that the adults suddenly disappeared again" "Three months, you are still carefully selected by me" Xia Xun sighed, raised his head and leaned on the back of the chair, closed his eyes, and Wang Guanyu quickly shut up when he saw it.
Xia Xun tapped the table with his fingers, and after a while, he slowly opened his eyes again, sat up straight, as if the anger in his heart had been suppressed by him, and said with a pleasant face: "I'll tell you a few stories." ” "Ah" Jiang Mengxiong was a little dazed.
Xia Xun ignored him and said to Xu Jiang: "You also listen together, and when you go back, you will tell this story to your subordinates."
The master leads you into the door, and the cultivation is in the individual, and how much cultivation you can make depends on your own understanding. ” "Yes, yes, yes" Xu Jiang hurriedly leaned forward, and Jiang Mengxiong and the four of them also leaned forward slightly.
Xia Xun coughed and said slowly: "These are a few small stories from the foreign country, you listen carefully."
The first story, drinking. ” Several people glanced at each other and quickly listened.
Xia Xun said: "There is a country called the United States, and another country called Germany has a war, Germany has carefully planned an operation, to launch an attack in a place called Verdun, if this war is successful, they can win the final victory."
One of the officials involved in this plan attended a drinking party, oh, it was a flower bar, and there were many people at the banquet, including officials and gentry and merchants with a lot of money, and the official was drunk, so he said casually to everyone: everyone can rest assured that the enemy will definitely fail, and we will put an end to them at Verdun."
"One of them, a businessman from the United States, heard this, and felt that he must be hiding a great secret, so he immediately reported the news to his own country, and in the end, because the United States was on guard, the battle launched by Germany failed, which led to their total defeat" A few people listened, thoughtful.
Xia Xun said again: "This second story is called snow clearing.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
It is also two countries, which are sending troops to war, but they do not know each other's troops and the deployment of troops.
One day, when it was snowing heavily, one of the generals suddenly thought that the trench was full of snow, and the soldiers could not move, so they would definitely clear the snow, and the snow that was swept out would definitely be piled up outside the trench, and the snow swept up in this way must be different in color from the normal snow, so he immediately ordered someone to observe the enemy's movements.
Sure enough, they judged from the color of the snow which trenches the enemy was mainly ambushing, and the positions where the color of the snow did not change were just the enemy's bluff and suspicions, and thus won the battle. ” The expressions of several people became more calm.
Xia Xun didn't rush to say more, he took a few sips of tea to let them digest it, and then continued: "The third story is called raising a cat."
As you know, some officials like to keep cats and dogs, and the generals in the north also like to raise eagles.
I'm talking about this country, it's like to have cats.
The same two armies were fighting, positions were opposed, and both sides hid their main forces and the position of their commanders. ” Xia Xun is talking about several examples in modern warfare, such as hiding the position of the commander, which is not very common in ancient times, because what the officers and soldiers of the three armies need to see is where the commander is, but the truth is the same, Jiang Mengxiong and others are just rough people, but not stupid people, they have understood that Xia Xun is telling them that some seemingly insignificant small details, if you think carefully, you can judge how much confidential information that you can't find out with all your efforts, so no one looked suspicious, just listened patiently.
Xia Xun said: "As a result, one day, the people on one side of the position, on a position on the other side, suddenly found a cat running by, and it was not a wild cat, but an extremely valuable Persian cat.
According to their judgment, the enemy's commander is likely to be hiding here, so they concentrate their forces to attack here, capture the thief and capture the king first, and kill the opponent's commander in one fell swoop.
Looking at the five people who were silent, Xia Xun said again: "The last story is the light.
When two countries were at war, one of them sent a soldier to infiltrate the other's city, where he lived near the official offices of the other's generals and officials.
He carefully observed and found that every night in the yamen, there were fixed lights in several places, but suddenly one day, he found that the entire yamen was almost brightly lit, and there were people busy coming in and out, and he felt that the other party must have a great action, so he immediately sent the information back.
Think about it, one side is prepared, and the other side thinks that the other side is unprepared, who will suffer in this battle?"
The five of them nodded slowly, as if they had realized something.
Xia Xun said: "These can not only be directly used on the battlefield where the two armies are fighting, but also suitable for us."
Drinking, snow sweeping, keeping cats, lights, which of these things is directly related to the other side's military operations, but if you are smart enough, you can guess the other party's intentions, not that you have to listen to what he wants to do from the other party's high-ranking officials, which is called intelligence."
"Yes," the five men bowed their heads in unison.
Xia Xun said again: "Mengxiong, you are a gangster, don't say anything else, how many eyes and ears you are on the dock that they transport every day, what they transport, how much they transport, where they are transported, where they are transported, and who they are transported to, but if you understand these things, how much useful information will you know."
Jiang Mengxiong's face was flushed with excitement, and even a few faint pockmarks came out: "Yes, yes, boss, brother understands." ” Xia Xun turned to Xu Shiling: "At the banquet, the cups are staggered, chatting, and reprimanding are the easiest places to leak secrets.
There's nothing wrong with you buying this boat, the problem is, you're using your energy wrong, lonely men and widows, take off your essence, there are a few people who will talk about national affairs in bed, well, let go of those women, catch your little two."
Xu Shiling wiped his sweat and said, "Yes, yes, I didn't expect it."
That's right, the shopkeeper is the most suitable eyes and ears, I used to be so stupid, I just thought about going to bed, it's time for them to have no scruples."
Xia Xun glanced at him angrily, and then turned to Zhang Jun: "Seven things to open the door, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar and tea."
Do you think that I asked you to run a grain and rice shop, just to let you have a hidden identity and you want to directly inquire about the information, where to inquire, well, you see whether the price of grain and rice has increased or decreased, what kind of prison has been sent by the people who come to buy rice and grain, whether the pockets are rich or poor, isn't this intelligence?"
Zhang Jun ate and said: "I originally thought that by contacting some official eunuchs as customers and sending rice and grain to the door, there will be a way to hear a lot of news from their servants and subordinates."
It's just that most of them have cooked grain and rice stores, and I haven't been able to contact a few households yet. ” Xia Xun said: "Your method, of course, is good, but the effect is too slow, finally you two and the other are smarter, I just told you that there is more than one way to find out intelligence, not only one." ” "Yes, yes, yes."
"And you, Guanyu" Wang Guanyu listened to it and said excitedly: "Boss, you don't need to say it, I understand everything, I know how to do it." ” Xia Xun glared and said: "You guys, you're annoying me, if you continue to be so annoying, I'll leave, this time it's not as simple as disappearing for three months."
In the boudoir of the little county lord in the Zhongshan Palace, Xu Ming'er was covering her ears at this time, and said to Xu Huizu and Xu Zengshou: "You guys, you're annoying me, if you continue to be so annoying, I'll leave, this time it's not just as simple as disappearing for more than half a year."
To be continued:
