Mao Gui is very busy, and can even be said to be the busiest official in the entire Zhongshu Province. Ever since the establishment of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, until now, they finally have a chance to show off their talents.
It has been ten years since Lao Zhu ascended the throne, and ten years since the founding of the Ming Dynasty. The whole world is celebrating, and all nations have come to court.
At this time, the Ministry of Rites, which is about to be split up, will never be able to shoulder this burden.
Several big shots in Zhongshu Province, including Deputy Prime Minister Li Shanchang, who had the title of Councilor, were all looking at him with big eyes.
Do they know the name of the King of Ryukyu?
Do you know where Siam is?
Do you know if Srivijaya believes in Buddhism?
...-
I don't know, they are just officials of the Ming Dynasty, it is really difficult for them to know this.
So let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs take charge!
Receive envoys from various countries, arrange for them to stay and rest, explain the etiquette of the foreign countries, and take them to visit various scenic spots and market streets.
All in all, we must make the guest feel at home, and the host and guest enjoy themselves...
It happened that at this time, something not so comfortable happened. An official from the Ministry of Rites hurried to Mao Zedong
In front of you.
"Butang, King Zhan captured the envoy from the foreign vassal!"
"What?" Mao Gui was shocked, "What's going on? Is there a reason?" This question is very consistent with Zhu Di's impression on everyone. This kid often makes trouble out of nothing. It is also possible that he bullies the outsiders for no reason.
of.
But this time it was different. "It is said that the horse of the Goryeo envoy in the department collided with the people of Kanre Pavilion. In anger, King Zheng killed the frightened horse, captured the Goryeo envoy, stripped him naked, and put on his clothes."
Wearing horse skins and parading through the streets..."
"etc!"
Mao Gui stopped the official, "You said it's Gaoli?" "Yes!"
"Their frightened horses also hurt the people?" "Yes!"
"Then King Yan arrests people and shows them to the public?"
"right!"
-.-.--
Mao Gui's eyes suddenly widened, "You're right! Since it's all right, why are you telling me?"
ah!
The officials were all dumbfounded, "This is a foreign matter, and it is important for the ministry to know about the Korean envoy!"
"What are you talking about?" Mao Gui said angrily: "Remember, the principle of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is that you should not know what you should know, and you should not know anything you shouldn't know!"
"Then, what shouldn't you know?"
"That's it!" Mao Gui said angrily: "When there are conflicts between King Yan's subordinates, Ying Tianfu should first be responsible, then the Ministry of Justice, Yushitai, Zongzheng Temple, and finally the Zhongshu Province and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The process is not clear.
After leaving, how can the Ministry of Foreign Affairs easily interfere? We have become very conspicuous these days. If we dare to interfere casually with this matter again, we will not be said to have exceeded our authority? You guys really don't give me any peace of mind!"
"Okay, you can go down now!"
The official touched his nose and turned to leave.
As soon as he left, Mao Gui grinned and almost laughed. It was great. You must know that His Majesty had already hinted to him that he wanted to show off to Gao Li. He was also thinking about how to arrange it to anger Gao Li.
Give Ming an excuse to send troops.
To be honest, this is really difficult.
We are guests here, and it’s not just the Goryeo family. There are so many people watching, and they are looking for trouble. If someone sees what they are doing, wouldn’t it be true?
It was necessary to remain calm while at the same time irritating the Korean envoy... This was simply a difficult task, and it was a colorful black thing.
What do you want us to do?
Just when Mao Gui couldn't find a solution, Zhu Di asked this question... and instantly solved the problem of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
It’s just a timely blessing to call for help. Okay, that’s interesting!
Mao Gui couldn't be more satisfied, he can finally use the classic four-stage tactics------
First of all, we claim that nothing happened... Secondly, something may have happened, but it has nothing to do with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs... Thirdly, it may involve the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, but it needs to be carefully verified... After verification, we came too late!
That's right, things developed according to Mao Gui's vision.
Zhu Di arrested people, stripped off their clothes, put on bloody horsehide, and paraded in the streets of Yingtian... This attracted the attention of countless people, who rushed over to watch the fun.
What is this called?
Is there a famous hall?
Thanks to the popular science we asked some time ago, everyone knows that after Song Huizong and Song Qinzong were captured, they were naked, put on sheepskins, and performed the ritual of leading sheep!
By the way, isn’t there another joke?
Aguda sells sheepskin: Brand new, Zhao Ji wore it once!
Is this the gift of holding a horse?
Yes, we get it.
But why do this?
What did these people do to beat the snow?
Soon the news came out that these people were envoys from Goryeo. They brought some horses over, nominally as tribute to His Majesty, but they led the horses and ran to the city gate to show off their power.
He also said that the Ming Dynasty did not have such a horse, which attracted many people to watch.
Then the horses were frightened and collided with the people, causing several people to have their legs broken and their arms broken. Then King Yan arrived, killed the fierce horses, and arrested the people.
Anyone who dares to harm our people, the Ming Dynasty, must be severely punished!
So there is a scene in front of you!
As soon as everyone heard this, they immediately became energetic.
That's right, the steamed king's penis is so good that it made us angry!
This is how you should treat them, no politeness!
These barbarians really don't know how far the sky is from the sky.
Not to mention anything else, they came wearing the clothes gifted by the Yuan Dynasty, so they should be separated from each other! Why, do you still miss the Yuan Dynasty?
By the way, when the Yuan Dynasty was in Japan, they married several Goryeo princesses, empresses, and so many Goryeo eunuchs -... these beasts, working for tigers, doing evil, oppressing good people, and exploiting common people... whoever has anything to do with people
They don't do the same thing.
Now that the Yuan Dynasty is finished, you still dare to show off your power, go to the Ming Dynasty to show off, and hurt the people of the Ming Dynasty. Isn't this a clear way to seek death?
We support you, King Yan! Well done!
Zhu Di is a crazy guy. When he heard the big guy shouting, he became energetic. "Tie these people to the tail of a horse, I will drag them forward!"
The people below could only follow the order and tied the man to the horse's tail. Zhu Di suddenly urged the horse and ran forward. The Korean envoy staggered for a few steps before falling to the ground and being dragged forward by the horse.
The body rubs against the ground...
He ran less than two miles away and was already bloody and scarred, with only one breath left.
After all, Zhu Di did not kill the person, but he did not stop there either. Instead, he asked people to put the injured person on the carriage and continue to parade through the streets.
Moreover, Zhu Laosi also got some salt water from a shop on the street and poured wine on the wounds of these people... It was so immoral and bubbling.
He worked like this for more than two hours, and the Ming Dynasty officials and Yingtian street gates at all levels fully demonstrated their rigorous style.
The first is Yingtianfu Yamen. They believe that the matter involves King Luo and must ask Zongzheng Temple for approval.
Zongzhengji said that we were only responsible for investment and economic reports. When Luo Wang was involved in a fight, which belonged to the Ministry of Punishment, the Ministry of Punishment said that we were only responsible for interrogation. This matter must be raised by Yushitai before it can be handed over to us.
Yushitai said that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was implicated and that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs needed to make a conclusion first.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs said that we have launched an emergency strategy...just wait, there will be news soon.
In this way, with the close cooperation of a large number of demen, until it was almost time to light the lamp, only the Korean envoys were left one by one, and they were sent back to the post.
Zhu Di said that the situation was very stable and he still hadn't breathed a breath!
He was also too arrogant. It was too late to enter the palace, so he went directly to Zhu Ying's mansion.
Let me see if there are any weird things I haven’t eaten yet?
When he came in, I was in a hurry, and I happened to see Shige, holding a long knife, waiting for him!
Zhu Di ran in head first, feeling that the atmosphere was not good, and turned around to run away.
How could Zhu Ying let him go, and said sternly: "Send the order, close the door of the house, and all the guards will follow me to catch the thief!
In an instant, Zhu Di fell into a dragnet. Two hundred guards and Zhu Ying surrounded him and several subordinates. You must know that Zhu Ying is not Zhu Heng or Zhu Fan. He commands thousands of troops and horses. , and also suppressed the chieftain rebellion many times. Let alone Zhu Laosi, even if a group of monkeys entered the mountain, Zhu Ying could pick them out one by one.
At this moment, Zhu Di fell into a pit of fire. Not only was he captured by Zhu Ying, he was also grabbed by Zhu Ying's neck and signed an alliance under the city!
Eat mine and spit it out for me, take double mine and return it
Don't think that just because you are a prince, you are great, as if you are not a prince!
Just when Zhu Laosi was in dire straits, Zhu Biao was also asking questions at Zhang Ximeng's mansion next door.
"Sir, my fourth brother got into a big trouble, how should I deal with it?"
Zhang Ximeng blinked and said, "It is indeed a big disaster. You'd better talk to Zhu Ying. He loves you. If you don't take it when the time comes, Zhu Di will lose less..."
"Wait a minute!"
Zhu Biao quickly stopped Zhang Ximeng, "Sir, is this the big disaster I'm talking about?" Zhang Ximeng was stunned, "Isn't it?
Zhu Biao cried, "Sir, Zhu Di beat the Goryeo envoy and almost died. This is not a small matter!" Zhang Ximeng's face sank, "Your Highness, as the crown prince, you must be strict when encountering things. You said King Yan beat him He almost beat people to death, which is correct, but you said that King Yan beat the Korean envoy, which is problematic."
"What's the problem?"
"We have not officially accepted Goryeo as a vassal state. The people they sent over can only be regarded as guests attending the Hongwu Tenth Year Celebration, not as envoys."
Zhu Biao was helpless, "Well, it's not a trivial matter to injure the guest! If my father is angry, the consequences will be disastrous!"
"Then don't make Your Majesty angry!"
Zhu Biao was stunned and said, "Sir, I don't understand what you mean."
"Guest guests, as the name suggests, we invited them, they are the guests. As far as I know, Gao Li sent people to the door himself."
Zhu Biao pondered: "Well, how about driving them away?"
"It's not impossible. After all, what is Goryeo? We need to study it carefully!" Zhang Ximeng said with a smile: "Goryeo was the Yuan Dynasty's eastern province. As a starting point, it launched an attack on the envoy country... From this point of view, is it the territory of the Yuan Dynasty? What do the princes think of this? There is also the land of Goryeo, which originally belonged to our Han Sina. What do the National History Museum think? Guan Feng and the others have fought hard, Goryeo They also have a say in the situation of
Zhang Ximeng finally smiled and said: "In short, who is the Chinese and who is the barbarian! Your Highness must know it well!"
