On May 15, 1875, amid the deafening salute and the reluctant farewell of the Edo people, Emperor Zhu Da embarked on his return journey on a ship.
The journey home was long, but fortunately, someone accompanied him, and it was none other than the so-called heroes of the Restoration - Iwakura Tomomi, Kido Takayoshi, Saigo Takamori. As for Okubo Toshimichi, Ito Hirobumi and others stayed in Edo in Japan.
He served in the Protectorate. And Okubo Toshimichi was the official Deputy Protector, which can be said to be inferior to one person and superior to tens of thousands of people.
At least in the Japanese Protectorate, this was the case. This was because Emperor Zhu wanted to borrow Okubo Toshimichi's sword. After all, in another world, Okubo Toshimichi was known as the first politician of Japan's Meiji Restoration and was known as the "Bismarck of the East."
.In order to reform, he was ruthless and ruthless. Regardless of his enemies or friends, all that stood in his way could only be ashes. He was assassinated in the end, but he also achieved the success of the Meiji Restoration.
Since Okubo Toshimichi can achieve the great cause of the Restoration with Ito Hirobumi with his iron fist, he will definitely be able to achieve the "great cause of union". Will this knife be as sharp as in another world, and will it chop down those opponents without mercy?
Under the sword. Emperor Zhu Da doesn't know yet, but one thing that is certain is that no one is more suitable than them.
Of course, it will take at most ten years. After ten years, they will return to the center of the Ming Dynasty. At that time, they can be given surnames and naturalized. After all, they are heroes of the United Kingdom.
Just like Iwakura Tomoshi, as a newly promoted earl of the Ming Empire, he not only changed his name to "Iwakura Tomoshi", but also researched his family history - even though he was born in the lowest half of the family among the public ministers,
He also had a complete genealogy. After some research, he actually found evidence that he was from the Ming Dynasty - Yan's surname came from Zhejiang. After the death of the Song Dynasty, his family ancestors were plundered by the Meng Yuan and went to Japan with their army. After the defeat of the Meng Yuan,
, settled in Japan...
That's it. I don't know if there is a little magic fairy, but what is certain is that after this research, Iwakura, no, Iwagu Shi has become a Ming Dynasty person, not the kind of naturalized person
, but a proper Chinese Miao descendant.
Is this amazing?
Even now, Emperor Zhu Da feels it is very magical, but Emperor Zhu Da absolutely supports this. Why not support it? What goes up is effective. There is an Iwakura Tomoshi who takes the initiative to find the Chinese ancestors to recognize him. There will only be more in the future.
Many people came to recognize their Chinese ancestors. Of course, the Ming Dynasty welcomed this kind of "recognition of ancestors and return to the clan".
welcome!
And you have to raise your hands to welcome them. It is better for island people to recognize their Chinese ancestors than for those on Frog Island not to recognize their Chinese ancestors.
And after recognizing this ancestor, it fully proves that "Japan has belonged to China since ancient times."
Of course, you cannot directly become a Ming citizen after recognizing your ancestors. After all, people from the Ming Dynasty are very noble, and you cannot become one just casually.
"It is indeed a giant ship of the Celestial Dynasty!"
Once again, Yan Gushi, who was wearing plain clothing, pointed to the 305mm cannon of the "Nanhua" with some sigh and said.
"Xixiang, look at this giant cannon. One shot can destroy it for ten miles!"
"Iwakura, what do you think this is? This is just a cannon, its power..."
Before Saigo Takamori could finish what he said, Rock Tool Vision spoke seriously.
"Oh, Xixiang, how many times have I told you to call me brother Yan? Our Yan family comes from Jiaojiang, Zhejiang, and is an authentic Chinese descendant. By the way, Xixiang, your family should also be from China, right?
Well, Ximen Qing should be the ancestor of our family..."
As soon as Iwagu Shi finished speaking, Saigo Takamori said a little excitedly.
"Iwakura, you guy, Ximen Qing is the ancestor of your family, and your family is the descendant of Ximen Qing..."
A certain vase of plums is very popular in Japan, but who among the nobles has not read this "the most wonderful book in history"? Of course Saigo Takamori has read it, and of course he knows Ximen Qing, and he is envious of Ximen Qing's sexual blessings.
But not many people want to recognize this ancestor.
"Oh, I'm talking about Xixiang. You see you are anxious. What I said is true. After all, his surname is Xixiang."
Rock Tool said carelessly,
"After all, there were many people from the Song Dynasty who fled to Japan. Japan had the habit of "transferring their species" to the Song Dynasty, and it was not just ordinary people who went to transfer their species. Later, when we, the people from the Song Dynasty, lived in Japan, we had to go first to those closest to the water.
Well, Yue, who can say that he doesn’t have Master Song’s blood on his body?”
"Hmph, like you? Your surname is Yan!"
Saigo Takamori stared at the rock tools, this guy is so shameless.
"The Yan family comes from Zhejiang, so it makes sense for us to recognize our ancestors and return to our clan!"
Looking at Iwakura's shameless appearance, Saigo Takamori even regretted saying these words to him. After all, this guy is a typical shameless person!
Seeing that Saigo Takamori looked down on him, Iwatoshi said directly.
"Actually, Xixiang, the reason why I advise you is not only for you, but also for the sake of the warriors of Japan. Now, although His Majesty has accepted the warrior books and has become the lord of more than 400,000 warriors of Japan, in the Ming Dynasty,
How many people would stand completely in their shoes?”
Standing on the side of the ship's side, looking at the Ming Dynasty sailors not far away, Iwagi Shi said.
"The soldiers of the Ming Dynasty have generals in the court, and there are generals who work for their interests, but what about the warriors of Japan? In the future, they will be in Africa to fight for the Ming Dynasty. If Xixiang does not speak for them when His Majesty is around, then who will speak for them?"
Why did Saigo Takamori submit to the Ming Emperor? Isn't it because the Ming Emperor offered a condition that he could not refuse, or that all the nobles could not refuse? The reason why Iwagushi now talks about the interests of the nobles is to lobby
He is naturalized.
"Iwakura, I can still speak for them now, and His Majesty is a monarch who is good at accepting advice..."
Before Saigo finished speaking, Iwagu Shi looked at him with sympathetic eyes, why hasn't this guy understood it yet?
Hey, if this guy had political acumen, how could he resign?
"It's different, Xixiang. You are in the Ming Dynasty now. Since we will be united tomorrow, some things will always change. You know, many Japanese have changed their Chinese surnames."
Changing a Chinese surname is a normal thing in Japan nowadays. Even ordinary people know that changing a surname is the most direct way to integrate into the Ming Dynasty.
Why can't he see things that ordinary people can see when he comes to Xixiang Longsheng?
"Besides, it's really not easy to become a Ming Dynasty person. Xixiang, don't miss this opportunity! I don't know how many people dream of becoming a Ming Dynasty person,"
