Shangguan Yun lowered his head slightly, as if he did not dare to look at Dongfang Bubai, and said slowly: "Reporting to the leader, Chu Yi only sent a young general back this time, and he is still in the land of Japan!"
After taking a sip of wine, Dongfang Bubai's eyes were filled with a hint of drunkenness, and he chuckled: "It seems that the chief executive is not in a hurry to return to Beijing!"
Shangguan Yun opened his mouth and said with some hesitation: "Since Chu Yi is not in charge of the capital, why doesn't the leader take the opportunity to go to the Forbidden City and kill the emperor..."
The Sun and Moon God Sect has always been suppressed and wanted by the imperial court. It can be said that they are natural enemies of the imperial court. The reason why the Sun and Moon God Sect has not been completely wiped out by the imperial court is, on the one hand, because the Sun and Moon God Sect itself has its own ways of protecting itself.
Tao, on the other hand, the imperial court did not deliberately destroy the Sun and Moon God Sect.
From Shangguan Yun's point of view, assassinating the Emperor of Heaven is naturally a matter of course for the Sun and Moon God Sect.
Dongfang Bubai was invited to the capital to fight with Chu Yi. If Chu Yi had lost in that battle, Dongfang Bubai would definitely not mind getting rid of the Emperor.
Now that Chu Yi was not in the capital, Shangguan Yun thought that this was naturally the best time to assassinate the emperor.
He glanced at Shangguan Yun faintly, and suddenly saw Dongfang Bubai flicking his sleeve, and suddenly the sleeve struck Shangguan Yun's chest like lightning, knocking Shangguan Yun away on the spot.
Shangguan Yun fell into the courtyard, and the next moment a red shadow flashed past, and Dongfang Bubai looked down at Shangguan Yun and said coldly: "Who gave you the instructions to encourage this leader to assassinate the emperor?"
Shangguan Yun's words were obviously a bit encouraging. Dongfang Bubai's ability to become the leader of the Sun and Moon Sect depended not only on his cultivation, but also on his intelligence and wisdom. So when Shangguan Yun spoke,
Dongfang Bubai knew that someone had secretly instructed Shangguan Yun to say that.
There was blood oozing out from the corner of his mouth. Shangguan Yun wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. There was a hint of fear on his face and he shook his head and said: "What did the leader say? I don't dare to follow you!"
Dongfang Bubai just glanced at Shangguan Yun indifferently, turned around and said: "I don't care who the person behind you is, just go and tell them that I, Dongfang Bubai, is not something they can plot. Otherwise,
Don’t blame the leader for being rude!”
As he spoke, Dongfang Bubai waved his sleeves and shouted at Shangguan Yun: "Get out!"
Under the power of Dongfang Bubai, even though Shangguan Yun's cultivation level was not bad, when facing Dongfang Bubai, Shangguan Yun could not even think of a single thought of resistance.
Shangguan Yun ran out rolling and crawling, and saw Dongfang Bubai groaning and shouting: "Here comes someone!"
After the words fell, several figures appeared, lowering their heads and standing respectfully in front of Dongfang Bubai. Dongfang Bubai said in a deep voice: "Prepare a big ship for my leader. In three days, I will go to sea to Japan."
!”
As subordinates of the Sun and Moon God Sect, these people are naturally ready to listen. At this moment, Dongfang Bubai actually asked them to prepare a big ship. Of course, a mere big ship is nothing, not to mention one, even if it is several times more, compared to the sun and the moon.
For the huge power of the divine religion, that is nothing more than a trivial matter.
What really shocked these senior leaders of the Sun Moon God Sect was that Dongfang Bubai actually had the idea of going across the ocean.
The Sun Moon God Sect's current momentum is largely due to the prestige of Dongfang Bubai. If something unexpected happens to Dongfang Bubai, the Sun Moon God Sect will definitely suffer heavy losses and even be severely damaged.
An altar leader of the Sun Moon God Sect was Dongfang Bubai's confidant. He looked to Dongfang Bubai with a hint of worry and said, "There are many dangers on the ocean. Please think twice, leader!"
Dongfang Bubai just waved his hand and said without any intention of changing his mind: "My leader has made up his mind. You don't need to persuade me anymore. Go down and make preparations."
Chu Yi, who was far away in Japan, would never have imagined that because of his stay in Japan, he would recruit Dongfang Bubai to Japan.
Forbidden City
Carriages one after another slowly drove into the Forbidden City under the protection of a group of Yulin guards, led by the chief eunuch Gu Dayong.
It is conceivable that these carriages can enter the Forbidden City, obviously with the permission of the emperor. Otherwise, it would be difficult for even one to enter the Forbidden City with so many vehicles, let alone dozens of them.
In addition to Yu Linwei and Gu Dayong, there was another person with Gu Dayong. It was none other than Yu Dayou.
What was loaded on these carriages was none other than the tens of millions of taels of silver that Chu Yi sent Yu Dayou to escort back as a tribute to the emperor Zhu Houzhao.
As for the four to five million taels of gold and silver property, the Ministry of Household Affairs sent people to escort them to the treasury not long ago.
Dozens of carriages entered the Forbidden City under the cover of night, and the slightest movement in the Forbidden City would be watched by people.
Now, dozens of carriages entered the Forbidden City at once, which naturally alarmed many people.
These officials were naturally very curious as to what exactly it was that they actually required dozens of carriages to transport into the Forbidden City at night.
But except for a few individuals, even the Habayashi guards responsible for escorting those carriages did not know that what they were escorting was actually tens of millions of taels of silver.
The only ones who really knew it were Gu Dayong and Yu Dayou, the others had no idea.
Entering the palace, the Yulin Guards who were originally responsible for escorting successfully retired, and those who replaced these Yulin Guards were the Palace Guards.
Dozens of palace guards lifted the gold and silver boxes from the carriage together, and then entered the royal secret treasury one by one.
This royal secret treasury is naturally the emperor's small treasury, and there is a lot of gold and silver stored in this small treasury.
Although Chu Yi had sent most of the grain silver obtained from his family and exterminations to the treasury, even if he missed a tenth or two, after several rounds, the grain silver in this small treasury would probably be no less than 20 million taels.
So huge.
Although the emperor took out grain silver from the small treasury several times to reward the soldiers of the three armies, compared with the tens of millions of grain silver in the small treasury, the royal secret treasury can be said to have sufficient financial resources.
A well-known and sturdy Forbidden Army soldier carried extremely heavy boxes into the secret vault.
It took nearly an hour for these Forbidden Army soldiers to carry all the boxes on the carriage into the secret vault.
In the secret treasury, there are Yu Dayou, Gu Dayong and several old eunuchs who are responsible for managing the secret treasury. These old eunuchs are definitely senior figures in the Ouchi court.
Being able to be selected to guard these gold and silver treasures for the emperor shows how much Zhu Houzhao trusted these old eunuchs.
If he had not placed great trust in these eunuchs, I am afraid Zhu Houzhao would not have entrusted such an important part of the royal secret treasury to these people.
While Yu Dayou and Gu Dayong were counting the incoming silver, they heard the sound of welcome coming from outside the secret warehouse.
"Your Majesty is here!"
Both Yu Dayou and Gu Dayong straightened their clothes when they heard the noise coming from outside. At the same time, a figure walked in wearing a brocade suit. Who could it be if it wasn't Zhu Houzhao?
"The last general, Yu Dayou, pays homage to His Majesty!"
Zhu Houzhao waved his hand and said: "General Yu, there is no need to be polite!"
Gu Dayong stepped forward and saluted: "Why are you here, Your Majesty?"
Zhu Houzhao glanced at the treasures in the secret warehouse, and finally his eyes fell on the newly brought in boxes. These boxes were sealed with seals. Several boxes had been opened at this time. You can see
The gold ingots are neatly placed in the box.
These gold ingots look so tempting, especially under the beating candlelight, these gold and silver are shining slightly, which is very tempting.
With a slight cough, Zhu Houzhao came back to his senses, glanced at Gu Dayong and said, "Gu Dayong, have you ever done a clear count?"
Gu Dayong said quickly: "Reporting to Your Majesty, we are counting them, and the results will be out soon."
Zhu Houzhao nodded lightly and said: "You continue, I will rest aside and wait for the results of your counting!"
Gu Dayong and Yu Dayou started counting the gold and silver again. After almost half an hour, they finally counted all the boxes.
At this time, Zhu Houzhao had already drank several cups of tea. Gu Dayong said to Zhu Houzhao: "Your Majesty, the results are out. The total is 9.5 million taels of silver, 100,000 taels of gold, and a total of 10.1 million taels of silver!
"
Zhu Houzhao raised his eyebrows. Even though he had known it for a long time, when he was really sure, Zhu Houzhao was still deeply moved.
Even though Chu Yi was far away across the ocean, his work still warmed his heart.
Whether these tens of millions of taels of silver are placed in the national treasury or in the royal inner treasury, it is a great blessing for the country. However, keeping it in the royal inner treasury is obviously of great benefit to Zhu Houzhao. With money and food in his hands, he will not panic in anything.
I don’t know how many things can be done with tens of millions of taels of silver.
In the royal study
After coming out of the royal secret treasury, Zhu Houzhao summoned Yu Dayou in the imperial study.
Yu Dayou looked at the secret letter in his hand with a bit of amazement on his face. Although he had known for a long time how much Emperor Zhu Houzhao valued and trusted Chu Yi, but now he saw Zhu Houzhao telling him again and again that he must hand over the secret letter.
One can imagine the feelings of Chu Yi and Yu Dayou.
That day was sunny and windy. As groups of soldiers blocked the city gate, pedestrians who were passing through were isolated. Then groups of people were seen pouring out of the Forbidden City and walking in the open air.
The land gathered together.
After more than half a year of training, the newly expanded 200,000-strong army already has some military qualities. However, they have never been on the battlefield and have seen blood, so these soldiers seem to be missing something.
In fact, as long as a general with experience in leading troops can tell whether these soldiers are new soldiers or veterans as soon as they see them.
According to the wishes of Yang Yiqing and Zhu Houzhao, an additional 100,000 troops were sent to Japan this time.
Although the so-called daimyo's men in the land of Japan are not small, their combat effectiveness cannot be complimented at all. Otherwise, Chu Yi would not have been able to defeat more than a dozen countries so easily.
Obviously, Chu Yi eliminated many Japanese aliens, and also captured many elites and sent them to the mines. However, the occupied land had to be guarded by a group of troops.
When Chu Yi flew across the sea, he brought only 50,000 soldiers. Excluding those companions who died due to lack of luck during the fight, Chu Yi still had nearly 50,000 soldiers.
The number of fifty thousand does seem to be a lot, but if the manpower is scattered casually, the result is that Chu Yi has only less than ten thousand soldiers and horses left in his hands.
Tens of thousands of troops are actually not too few. The key is to use them for defense. Once he takes the initiative to attack, Chu Yi is not worried about not being able to destroy those big and small countries. The key is whether he can defend his territory after destroying those big and small countries.
place.
It is said that there are many gold and silver mines in Japan. Chu Yi destroyed more than a dozen large and small kingdoms. Except for some of the silver grains, the rest came from the mines.
There are more than a dozen large and small mineral deposits, and each mine requires hundreds or even thousands of soldiers to guard it. Otherwise, the thousands of slaves would not be able to escape one by one.
Obviously, the imperial court's dispatch of 100,000 troops to Japan could solve Chu Yi's shortage of men on the one hand, and on the other hand, it also showed that the civil and military attention of the Manchu Dynasty had shifted to Japan.
If we say that in the previous expedition to Japan, not many officials really paid attention to this point, but now it is very different. The millions of taels of grain silver really exceeded the expectations of many civil servants and generals. The most important thing is that Chu
Yi actually occupies so many gold and silver mines, which means that this is not a one-time deal, but a steady stream of gold and silver items that can be obtained from the mines.
The millions and tens of millions of taels of silver in a year is really too tempting. Except for a few exceptions, it can be said that most people in the civil and military dynasties became excited due to their initial opposition or cold watching.
stand up.
A hundred thousand troops came from the outskirts of Beijing in mighty force. Together with some generals selected by the imperial court, more than one hundred thousand troops gathered in one place.
On the high platform, Zhu Houzhao looked condescendingly at the black army, whose edges could not be seen at all, and couldn't help but show a bit of excitement in his eyes.
Yang Yiqing, Zhang Mao, Jiao Fang and other important ministers stood beside Zhu Houzhao, and only heard Zhu Houzhao say: "Soldiers, the Japanese Japanese pirates invaded our coastal areas, robbed our Ming Dynasty merchants, and killed many people. It can be said that I
The Great Ming Dynasty is facing a great crisis. The General Manager Chu Yi has brought 50,000 troops and killed them in Japan. Today I personally send off all the soldiers. I hope that you will go there victorious and return in triumph. I hope that when I show my merits in the future, I can be in the court.
Goodbye everyone."
"Long live your Majesty, may the Ming Dynasty be victorious!"
With a shout, all the soldiers shouted loudly. One hundred thousand soldiers and horses shouted in unison. The sound was so loud that most of the capital could hear it clearly. I don’t know how many people who were unaware were attracted by this sudden shout.
I was shocked.
