Building provinces in Goryeo, Ryukyu, and Japan was a plan that Su Mingzhe had made long ago.
After becoming the crown prince last year, Su Mingzhe has been planning this matter.
Now, after more than a year of planning, the two kings of Korea and Ryukyu have sincerely requested submission.
For this purpose, Su Mingzhe established the provinces of Korea and Ryukyu, and at the same time implemented the "Tianfa Order" on the royal families of the two countries to Chineseize them.
Only Wajima was unwilling to give up the title of "Emperor", and was only willing to pay tribute as before, and at most let the Daiqing Navy garrison.
Seeing that Su Mingzhe could not reason, for the time being he could only send people to build a city near Shijian Yin Mountain, explore for silver mines, and stimulate the noble men of the Qing Dynasty.
When Kangxi and the Eight Iron Hat Kings and other dignitaries learned that there was a silver mine with an annual output of fifty million taels of silver on the Japanese island, they immediately became furious and asked Su Mingzhe to send more navy troops.
The powerful officials of the Qing Dynasty, who were fascinated by Bai Yin, had secretly discussed it. If the Japanese island dared to refuse the Qing's request to establish a province again, the Qing Dynasty would send a large army to conquer the Japanese island.
Originally, these things were the secrets of the powerful people in the DPRK and were not known to outsiders.
However, Ruolan and Ruoxi's father, General Maltai, learned the news and mentioned it in his letter home to the two sisters.
Ruoxi also learned from this that the Qing Dynasty had actually included Goryeo and Ryukyu into its territory and was preparing to "recover the Japanese islands":
"...So, you are also a time traveler, a time traveler from later generations, right?"
"Just because I established provinces in these three countries, you draw such an inference?"
Su Mingzhe looked at the girl in surprise.
He really didn't think there was any causal relationship here.
However, the girl really deduced it, and he didn't want to do otherwise.
As a Hunyuan Golden Immortal, I am already a Taoist Saint, so he would not lie to a woman.
Seeing that the man didn't deny it, Ruoxi felt a little bit of joy in meeting a 'kindred spirit' in her heart, but also a little bit of shock caused by the difference in identity between the two parties:
"Actually, if you just set up a province in Goryeo, I wouldn't doubt it. However, in the eyes of the orthodox dynasty of the Central Plains, Ryukyu and Japan have always been places that do not accept kingship. They are tasteless and it is a pity to abandon them. It’s worthless!”
Ruoxi was a liberal arts student when she was in school, otherwise she wouldn't have recorded the time when Yinreng was deposed twice. At this moment, she analyzed the man:
"If they hadn't experienced World War II, most people wouldn't think of setting up a province in a place like Wajima..."
"It would be a bit embarrassing to establish a province on the Japanese island, right?"
Su Mingzhe directly said the unfinished meaning of Ruoxi's words, then chuckled and admitted:
"Yes, you guessed it right, I am also from modern times."
"Which year did you travel from?"
"And you?"
"I am in 2011."
"I am...ten years from now."
"2021?"
"right."
"..."
"Then... how many years have you traveled through time?"
"Actually... this is my second time traveling through time!"
Su Mingzhe thought for a while, but still did not conceal the identity of the 'Han Gaozu'.
Facing Ruoxi's surprised gaze, Su Mingzhe slowly time-traveled himself to the time of Qin Shihuang. He was accidentally corrected by history and became the emperor of the Han Dynasty. Then he was trapped in a certain place for nearly two thousand years. Now that he was out of trouble, he became the fourth elder brother Yinzhen. , we talked about true and false news.
Ruoxi was immediately shocked by the man's words:
"You traveled back two thousand years and became Emperor Gaozu of the Han Dynasty?"
"Yes, I was traveling through soul at that time, and there were two other people traveling through time at the same time as me, but they were both traveling through clothing, that is, physically. One of them was General Meng Yi, and the other was Zhao Gao!"
Su Mingzhe briefly talked about the past two thousand years ago.
Ruoxi heard this
There are actually three immortal people in the world. The level of shock is second only to the time when my soul traveled to the Qing Dynasty two years ago.
Su Mingzhe slowly told some of the things he encountered:
"Actually, there are many time-travelers. I speculate that Wang Mang, the usurper of the Han Dynasty, and Liu Xiu, the Emperor of Guangwu, were all time-travelers... In addition, during the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties..."
"For five thousand years in China, there have been at least ten people who have traveled through China. It can be said that you and I are not alone!"
"It's just that this time and space seems to have the power of plane correction. Some of the things I invented and created in the late Qin and early Han Dynasties that transcended the times have disappeared in the subsequent wars... This is the rule of time and space reincarnation. The trend is irreversible. , small trends can be changed!"
Ruoxi felt sad after hearing what the man said:
"This means that in history, Yin Reng is destined to be deposed, and the Ba Ye Party is destined to achieve nothing, so you can imprison them in advance..."
After comforting the girl, Su Mingzhe stood up and prepared to leave.
However, before leaving, Su Mingzhe thought for a moment and then said:
"I know that after being baptized by the spirit of modern women's independent culture, you will have some psychological resistance if you join the royal family and share a man with other women."
"However, you can't resist this kind of thing, so just do as the Romans do. I will make it up to you after you enter the palace!"
"Compensation? What compensation can you give me?"
Ruoxi originally wanted the man to annul the engagement after he admitted that he was also a time traveler.
As a result, the man's words were like being hit on the head with a mallet.
Sure enough, this man is not a good person.
After sending the man away, Ruoxi returned to her previous decadent and discouraged look.
Ruolan tried to persuade her several times, but seeing that it had no effect, she stopped caring.
After all, the frequency of Su Mingzhe's visits suddenly increased after he "confessed" with Ruoxi.
From visiting once a month to now, Su Mingzhe comes every five or six days.
The difference from before is that when Su Mingzhe comes over now, he will stay overnight directly.
Ruoxi resisted in the beginning.
However, comparing the strength of women to men is really not worth mentioning.
After more than a dozen pieces of her skirt were torn, Ruoxi finally chose to compromise.
As a person who has experienced this, Ruolan naturally noticed what happened between her sister and the man.
However, the two of them already had an engagement, so Ruolan didn't say much.
In a blink of an eye, time has arrived in October.
Although in ancient times, news spread very slowly.
However, because it was ancient times, the methods of killing were very backward, and almost all the nobles were related to each other.
Therefore, after half a year of deliberation, the news of the discovery of a huge silver mine by the Daisei Marine Corps in Japan was made known to everyone who should know.
Fortunately, Su Mingzhe acted quickly and sent 50,000 naval troops in advance to build a city and fortifications at Shijian Yinshan.
If he had been slower, those Jiangnan salt merchants who colluded with the Japanese pirates might have had to unify the Japanese country and fight against the Qing Dynasty for the sake of silver mines.
Now that the imperial court has occupied the silver mines, those salt merchants simply colluded with local nobles and turned to Kangxi, hoping that Kangxi would share the interests of the silver mines with everyone based on their past friendship.
