"The original Goryeo royal family overestimated their capabilities and used weapons and weapons against the Celestial Empire. Their luck has run out, and I have no choice but to replace them for the sake of the Goryeo people!"
After reading this, Zhu Yunxi laughed again.
"Grandpa Huang, this Goryeo Li Chenggui is really a wonderful person!"
Zhu Yuanzhang drank tea slowly and smiled without saying a word.
According to the orthodox Confucian view, Li Chenggui was seeking to usurp the throne.
At the beginning, Emperor Hongwu issued an edict to draw a clear national boundary with Goryeo, and the old territory of the Yuan Dynasty, Tielingwei, should be used as the boundary. However, King Xinxu of Goryeo refused, and attempted to conquer Liaodong in the north. The general who was ordered to go out by the King of Goryeo was the current Goryeo.
Wang Li Chenggui.
At that time, Li Chenggui was on the Goryeo side, and Xu Da was on the Ming side. As soon as Li Chenggui led his army to the front line and saw the Ming tigers, he made a decision.
Instead of fighting with the Ming Dynasty and being killed, it is better to use the military power to go back and usurp the throne.
So he led his army back to the capital of Goryeo to open the capital, imprisoned King Xinyu of Goryeo, and supported the puppets. After several years of digestion, he completely took control of the political power of Goryeo. Now that he was enthroned as king, he urgently needed the canonization of the Ming Dynasty.
In this era, all countries next to each other can only be considered legal if they are given a title by the monarch. For example, the king of Thailand in later generations is the family wearing a red suspender vest. At that time, his ancestors conspired to usurp the throne in order to obtain
With the permission of Emperor Qianlong, he even falsely claimed that he was a descendant of the Chinese Zheng Shi.
Emperor Qianlong was not stupid, and did not take care of Ya Ting at all. Later, because of the so-called full martial arts war in Burma, he needed to win over them, and Siam had been envoys for years, crying and making trouble, so Emperor Qianlong reluctantly agreed.

However, in the early edicts sent to Siam in the Qing Dynasty, the word "king" was never used. Instead, the word "king" was used instead of "king" or "chief".
Therefore, every Thai king in the past dynasties has a name.
"I will take the name of the king of Goryeo instead. I will never dare to use the name of Goryeo again."
"The tall ones are big and beautiful. The beautiful ones are strong and gorgeous."
"However, no matter how high the mountains of Goryeo are, they are not as high as Mount Tai and Mount Hua."
"No matter how beautiful the water of the river is, it is not as beautiful as the Yangtze River and the Yellow River."
"How dare a small country use the word "Goryeo" to stand above other countries and challenge the majesty of a big country!"
"But now that the king of Goryeo has been punished by heaven, and his ministers know the affairs of the country, their descendants will be the shield of the Liaodong vassal of the Ming Dynasty from generation to generation, and they will not dare to forget the kindness of the heaven."
"Therefore, I would like to inform His Majesty Emperor Hongwu of the Ming Dynasty. How can we change the name of the country of Goryeo?"
"Chen's family was born in Hening, how can it be used as the name of the new country? There is also the ancient name of Goryeo, Korea, so it can also be used."
"But I don't dare to make a private decision. Please ask Your Majesty to remember the diplomatic relations between the two countries and give the country a name!"
"Your Majesty, I have the power to know the state affairs of Goryeo, Li Chenggui."
"It shows that the small country is in a remote and desolate place. It cannot understand the language, is not knowledgeable in hearing and knowledge, and is rough in calligraphy. It can only be used to know things. When it comes to making, it is not familiar with the body, so it makes mistakes. It is not because it dares to be arrogant." (It means that we, Korea, are not arrogant.
(Hua, the memorial I wrote is messy and messy, just to convey the meaning in words, please don’t blame me, Emperor)
"This man can really put down his figure and look down on his face!" Zhu Yunxi put down the memorial and said with a smile, "He can really lick!"
Zhu Yuanzhang was stunned, "What does licking mean?"
"It's what dogs lick when they want to please their master!" Zhu Yunxi said with a smile.
"Nonsense!" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed and glared, "Why is he the master of a country? If your words spread, wouldn't it mean that Ming Dynasty regards his Korean monarch as a dog?"
Zhu Yunxi didn't think he was wrong. No wonder Zhu Yuanzhang didn't beat them up in history, and Zhu Di was deceived by them. Then during the Wanli period, the Ming Dynasty sent elites to fight against Japan and aid Korea for the first time in history.
If Zhu Yunxi were from this era, he would probably be licked and confused by the King of Goryeo!
"My grandson just thinks that being courteous without anything is either a traitor or a theft." Zhu Yunxi continued to laugh, "They are so eager to beg and worship in Korea. What they are afraid of is that we will hold them responsible for occupying Liaodong land!"
"This Li Chenggui is quite a hero!" Zhu Yuanzhang closed his eyes and said, "The leader of a country can bend his knees to this point. This character is not simple!"
"The more this happens, the more worried my grandson will be about him!" Zhu Yunxi said sternly, "Grandpa Huang, this person is trying to please us while doing tricks in Liaodong. In fact, he is a duplicitous person.
Zhu Yuanzhang opened his eyes and said, "We still have to be gentle towards Goryeo." He said, looking at Zhu Yunxi, "If you have the opportunity to go to the border and take a look, you will understand. Goryeo can only be a dog that dare not bite people, and Bei
The Yuan Dynasty is a tiger. Beyond the Great Wall in the Mobei, hundreds of thousands of Mongolian cavalry are eyeing our Ming Dynasty. What they want is not just a bit of wilderness, but the entire plain."
The old emperor's words also make sense. Enemies must be prioritized. This is actually a kind of political wisdom.
"A good man has three gangs, and a fence has three stakes. Today's Korea is the stake outside the fence of our Ming Dynasty. If he helps us, we will give them some sweetness first." Zhu Yuanzhang said, suddenly smiled, "Do you think grandpa
Pedantic?”
"No!" Zhu Yunxi said quickly.
"You kid!" Zhu Yuanzhang scolded with a smile, "Although we are gentle towards Goryeo, we are not blindly indulging in it, otherwise he will slap his nose in his face." He pointed at the imperial case and continued, "The second pile on the right, the last one.
Above, take a look at the tribute list we wrote for Korea!"
Zhu Yunxi turned around again, found the list, and read it.
"One hundred kilograms of tribute gold, ten thousand taels of silver, one hundred fine horses, fifty stallions, and ten thousand pieces of fine cloth. It is normal to live forever!"
"Grandpa Huang, you are making Li Chenggui vomit blood!" Zhu Yunxi laughed.
Gao Liguo laughed, although it is not too difficult to take out these things, the difficulty lies in the last four words, "years and years". It means that tribute must be paid every year, always in this amount.
The old man is also wilted. This is tantamount to directly allowing the two sides to establish a tribute system, and also laying a landmine. If one day Goryeo does not pay tribute, or there are fewer tributes, the Ming Dynasty can use the reason that Goryeo broke the promise to send troops to beat him.
"Ginger is still hotter than old!" Zhu Yunxi praised and continued reading.
"Ten pieces of yellow gauze cloth, twenty pieces of white gauze cloth, twenty pieces of linen cloth, ten pieces of linen and linen cloth, ten pieces of full flower mats, ten yellow flower mats, and colorful flower mats, two curtain mats, fifty catties of ginseng, leopard skin
Ten pieces, twenty pieces of otter skin, for every year's festival."
Festivals are festivals held every year during the Ming Dynasty, such as autumn, Spring Festival, New Year's Day and other major festivals.
"Five eagles, two hundred catties of mushrooms, one hundred and fifty kilograms of rice, one hundred and fifty taels of gold, and seventy taels of silver. Happy birthday every year."
The emperor would give so many gifts every year on his birthday.
"In addition, each year we need 7 maidens, 10 waiters, 16 maids, and 10 firemen."
"Gold and silver utensils, colorful coins and other items!"
In addition to the above, Zhu Yuanzhang also restored the old practice of Goryeo sending beauties and eunuchs to the Yuan Dynasty every year.
The reason why the Wang family, the original royal family of Goryeo, was able to maintain its independence under the iron heel of Dayuan was because of these two tributes. The nobles of Dayuan all represented their glory by the number of Goryeo women in their family.
Kublai Khan once took an unknown woman as his daughter and married her to the king of Goryeo. After that, the children of Goryeo nobles married Dayuan one after another.
Moreover, during the Yuan Dynasty, Goryeo donated a large number of female slaves and handsome young men to the Yuan Dynasty every year. Girls were naturally playthings, and most of the handsome young men were castrated and became eunuchs.
As a result, many people in Korea later dared not report the birth of a daughter.
"Grandpa Huang, why do you want so many women from them?" Zhu Yunxi asked.
"To conquer a person is to take away his wife and daughters, and the same is true for conquering a country!" Zhu Yuanzhang laughed.
At this time, Zhu Yunxi suddenly discovered in the old man the temperament of a social elder brother.
"Can Goryeo agree?" These demands for tribute items are simply a loss of power and humiliation to the country.
"How dare he refuse to agree!" Zhu Yuanzhang said with a smile, "Besides, isn't it just what you want if he doesn't agree? If he doesn't agree, you should usurp your grandfather and me and send troops to beat him!"
"My grandson's little thoughts cannot escape your wise eyes!" Zhu Yunxi flattered him.
"Everything is fine with you, but sometimes you are too impatient!" Zhu Yuanzhang stood up, stretched his muscles, and said, "Governing a country must be done step by step. If you want to hit others, you must hit them in the right place."
"My grandson has remembered it!" Zhu Yunxi said.
Zhu Yuanzhang looked at him and said, "We don't know about you yet, kid? You said you remembered it, but what are you thinking about?" As he said that, he patted Zhu Yunxi on the shoulder and said, "That envoy from Goryeo scared you, you have to
Find a way to appease him."
Zhu Yunxi pondered for a moment, "It's to appease him, otherwise he would go back and talk nonsense with Li Chenggui, just in case Gao Li becomes wary again!"
"Come here, pass the meal!" Zhu Yuanzhang said to the outside, "I'm so hungry, let's have a meal with my eldest grandson!"
