Chapter 633 Isn't this Ming Dynasty out of nothing?
The Ming Dynasty was restored!
The country should be in heaven!
No one knew where the news came from, but the news was like thunder and spread all over Seoul in an instant. Whether it was the two ministers in the court or the Confucian scholars in Sungkyunkwan, they were all talking about it.
The restoration of the Ming Dynasty.
Ming Dynasty, they have never forgotten their motherland for more than two hundred years.
In the past, it was thought that the Ming Dynasty only existed in history books and people's descriptions. But now, the Ming Dynasty, the great kingdom that was destroyed at the hands of the Qing Dynasty, has come back to life again. This is simply... a bit unbelievable, but it is
It’s so exciting!
Daming!
Heaven is above the country!
If there is an utopia in the world, then in the descriptions of generations of Korean scholars, the Ming Dynasty is their "utopia". Almost all Korean scholars have imagined an "utopia" intentionally or unintentionally. Why should we
in this way?
It is not just respect for the Ming Dynasty, but Koreans also have Korean selfishness - they believe that Korea is the only pure land in the world that has preserved Chinese clothes, etiquette and righteousness, and they are proud of it.
What is the premise of this pride?
Of course, we must first create the perfect character of Ming Dynasty.
In an ideal country, everything is perfect!
Well, now this perfect country has been resurrected, how can they not be excited.
In the excitement, naturally there were officials and Confucian scholars who wrote to request to send envoys to the Ming Dynasty. Regarding this, Li Shiying chose to remain silent, and his son Li Xi also chose to remain silent. The former chose to remain silent because... he had already sent an envoy. As for
The latter, he didn’t know at all!
"Da Ming, could it be that... the country has really been restored?"
Li Xi asked in confusion.
"The news came from Seoul Prefecture, saying that a Qing businessman who was selling Korean women overseas was caught there. When he was interrogating him, he claimed that he was from the Ming Dynasty, and he also held a Ming Dynasty passport."
Choi Ik-hyun, the deputy chief executive of the Seungjeongwon who was responsible for drafting the king's edict, directly reported the situation he had.
"Passport? What is a passport?"
The beautiful lady who asked the question was none other than Princess Min of North Korea.
"It is said that it is the Ming Dynasty... No, they seem to be called the Ming Empire now. The Ming Empire issues certificates to people to go abroad to sea. They are almost qualified, and there are lifelike photos on them..."
"The Ming Empire."
Concubine Min frowned and said,
"Why is it so similar to Japan? Doesn't Japan call itself the "Great Japanese Empire"?"
When Japan is mentioned, Concubine Min has an instinctive aversion. In fact, most Koreans feel this way about the Japanese.
Not just disgust, but instinctive rejection.
"Perhaps it is a term used overseas today. Westerners call the Qing Dynasty also the "Qing Empire". Since this passport is for overseas use, it is naturally also called this way."
Cui Yixuan explained naturally.
"Oh, then have you met that Mingguo man?"
"Back to the king, I have never seen that person, and few people in the entire Hancheng mansion have seen him, but there is news that Lord Dayuan has sent a secret envoy, and he must have a plan!"
As soon as Cui Yixuan finished speaking, Concubine Min frowned and said anxiously.
"Ah! Your Majesty, we also need to send the secret envoy as soon as possible, but I'm afraid Mr. Dayuan has other plans!"
Any other plans?
What is the picture?
Although the princess did not say anything, Cui Yixuan's expression suddenly changed, and he instinctively thought of another possibility - Could it be that Lord Daewon wanted to use this to plot rebellion and usurp the throne!
Look at this whole thing, only sons have usurped Lao Tzu's throne, and I have always usurped my son's throne.
But they can't help thinking that way!
"Ah, what the princess said is true. The king should send a secret envoy as soon as possible to prevent the heaven from being deceived by others!"
When the princess and Cui Yixuan said this, Li Xishen nodded in agreement.
"As it should be, Cui Yixuan, are you willing to go to heaven?"
"I am willing to go!"
But just when Choi Ik-hyun took over this errand, the merchant ship carrying the secret envoy and his party set off from Jemulpo.
"Da Ming..."
Standing at the bow of the ship, Liu Zhongjiao looked a little excited.
"That's the heaven of history books! We are so lucky to be able to go to heaven again after being free from "Bingzi's chaos"!"
As Li Henglao, Jin Pingmo's disciple, he, like Li Henglao, adheres to the righteousness of the Spring and Autumn Period, and his respect for the Ming Dynasty comes from his heart. Originally, he had been living in seclusion in Seorak Mountain. If he hadn't learned from Dayuan Jun's letter
When the Ming Dynasty regained its kingdom, he was entrusted as a secret envoy to go to the Ming Dynasty to find out what happened. He would not become an official under any circumstances.
However, this was not to serve as an official, but to serve as a secret envoy to the Ming Dynasty.
"Yes, uncle, if the restoration of the Chinese dynasty is really successful, not only will the whole world celebrate, but we, North Korea, will also be able to return to our motherland."
Standing next to his uncle, Liu Linxi's tone was full of yearning for the Ming Dynasty. In another world, more than twenty years later, Liu Linxi was not only promoted as the successor of the "orthodox lineage" of the West China School, but also the Korean Yi.
The leader of the army was also regarded as the "last fundamentalist Chinese thinker". Even until the Republic of China, he advocated that China should rebuild the Chinese-barbarian order in order to maintain world peace.
"You must first identify the authenticity of Ming Dynasty!"
Jin Yujun, the newly promoted number one scholar last year, was also part of the delegation's entourage. When Li Shiying selected the secret envoy, he was very careful not to select important officials from the court. This was not only to deceive others, but also to, well, if the Qing Dynasty found out about it in the future.
It’s so shirkable—it’s just a few private actions!
"Then Chen Sheng is a businessman. As for Jin Zainan, he is just a poor man. He has no contract, no credentials, and only a passport. How can he prove the authenticity of the Ming Dynasty? Besides, if this Ming Dynasty is just pretending to be the emperor,
, then what should I do when the time comes..."
In the name of future enlightenment!
He was indeed right about this. However, there was no DNA in this era. How could they tell whether he was pretending to be Huang Ming or not?
"As long as it is the Ming Dynasty and continues the incense of the Ming Dynasty, it will naturally be the Ming Dynasty!"
Liu Chongjiao naturally had his own criteria for judging whether the Ming Dynasty was the Ming Dynasty. This criterion couldn't be simpler, that is, whether he recognized Huang Ming as his ancestor.
Having said that, more than two hundred years have passed. Even if it is a fake, who can tell clearly? The key is the name "Da Ming"!
For North Korea, what North Korea cares about is the "Ming Dynasty" and the restoration of Chinese orthodoxy!
Turning his attention to Chen Sheng, Liu Chongjiao said.
"Besides, since he dares to take us to the Ming Dynasty, I think what he said must be true!"
In fact, no one would doubt that Chen Sheng could "fabricate" a country. After all, who in the world can create a country out of thin air?
