The Emperor's palace is not far from Ashikaga Yoshiman's General's Mansion, and the main body of the building is also made of wood, which is simple and grand.

This is the spiritual pillar of the entire Japan. For the so-called emperor in this palace, the entire Yamato tribe was instilled with his thoughts of loyalty to the emperor since childhood and defended it with his life and blood.

But when Ashikaga Yoshima stepped into the palace, he seemed to have entered another world in an instant.

In this entire building complex, you can't feel the slightest clouds and breath of war. The palace is as elegant and quiet as ever, peaceful and graceful as ever. The maids walking back and forth, the priests can't see any panic at all. They are walking lightly and cannot make a sound.

Compared with these maids and priests, they were under the burden of war on their shoulders, their temples were already gray, and even some bowed and hunched backs were obviously out of place.

Ashikaga Yoshima, who had a dark look, did not respond to the greetings along the way. Even when a maid gave him a charming smile, Ashikaga Yoshima directly slapped him.

"roll!"

Ashikaga Yoshiman felt the atmosphere in the palace and felt desolate in her heart.

Japan has reached a desperate situation where mountains and rivers are broken, and the people here are still maintaining their bullshit aristocratic demeanor.

In this way, what is the purpose of the mental torment I have endured these days?

"Your Excellency General, please stay here for the time being and let me go in and report." A guard stopped Ashikaga Yoshiman.

Although he was already anxious, Ashikaga Yoshiman at this time just sighed and waved his hand to show it, and it was not difficult for the guard to do so.

Fortunately, he didn't let him wait any longer. In just a moment, the guard hurried back.

"Your Majesty asks the general to come in."

After crossing the threshold and walking towards the Emperor's residence, Ashikaga Yoshiman soon met Emperor Hiroshi.

A child who is only fifteen years old.

This emperor, who ascended the throne since the age of three, should thank the Chrysanthemum Dynasty for its accumulated influence in Japan for thousands of years, and thanks to the entire Yamato clan for its belief in the imperial family, which did not allow Ashikaga Yoshiman to successfully usurp the throne.

The Muromachi shogunate clearly possesses the military power of the entire Japan. Ashikaga Yoshiman can also exercise power equivalent to an emperor, but in this last step, the Ashikaga family cannot get through for several generations.

This is very strange.

Just like Ashikaga Yoshima and his father Ashikaga Yoshiji, they both came from one place, and Pinyi was equivalent to the Ming Dynasty, and they didn't even get the one who was the Masahisa.

If the Emperor does not grant him a title, the Ashikaga family will not dare to take it on their own.

Of course, the value of Japan's master and the master of the Ming Dynasty are not the same as that of the Ming Dynasty.

Not to mention that there were several in one day, there were only a few ministers who had won the title of honor for thousands of years.

Even the familiar Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Oda Nobunaga have never reached this level.

Even in later World War I and World War II, various princes, marshals and prime ministers.

"His Majesty."

When Ashikaga Yoshima received the ceremony, his already bent waist sank a little again.

"Thank you for your hard work, please sit down."

Regarding Ashikaga Yoshiman, Emperor Miren said that Emperor Hiroshi was still very proud of his appearance, so he hurriedly called him to sit down and called the eunuch to serve tea.

"The general is here, and I have a backbone in my heart. The great priest told me just now that I can ask the Caochi Sword to summon the sky fire, but it may affect the people of Kyoto. I am unsure of my mind and I don't know what the general thinks."

Grass Pheasant Sword, Sky Fire.

The sky fire is real, but unfortunately it is the sky fire of the Ming army, and it may not be affected, but it will definitely destroy the entire Kyoto.

Ashikaga Yoshimoto felt even more distressed, and he shook his head: "Your Majesty, the priest's words are not false, and no word is trustworthy. There are no three artifacts, nor are there any great gods of Rizhao.

The only god in the whole of Japan is you. Only you can save Japan and the Yamato tribe."

"How is that possible!" When Shiren heard that the artifact was useless, he became anxious at that time, and his young and fair face was full of anxiety: "How could the priest deceive me? It was because of the artifact that we wiped out the Yuan Dynasty fleet, right?"

"That was an accident!"

Ashikaga Yoshiman couldn't control his emotions anymore. He stood up and angrily shouted. Then he saw Shiren seemed to be frightened, sighed and weakened again, and said respectfully: "Your Majesty, the Ming army has wiped out the Osaka defense line across the board and advanced into the Kobe area. It is within reach of Kyoto.

At this time, we cannot have any fantasy. I have arranged 200,000 troops outside the city. These are your most loyal soldiers. They are fanatical and willing to break up to protect you. I am here, hoping that your Majesty can leave the palace with me and go to the barracks to boost morale for the soldiers.

As long as you come forward, the soldiers will be willing to fight to the death. By that time, as long as we hold the Ming army in Kyoto, you can leave Kyoto and call on the whole of Japan to unite. We can also drag this Ming army from afar to death.

When their logistics are not good, we can still negotiate and spend some money on their withdrawal."

"Then, can't you just have a peace talk?"

Honest Shiren carefully tested it.

"The Ming Dynasty is not willing now." Gritting his teeth, Ashikaga Yoshiman smiled bitterly: "Their purpose now is to cancel the national system of Japan and ask you to abdicate, Japan will add a governor and join the Ming League, otherwise the country will be destroyed and the province will be established."

Destroy the country and abdicate.

These two points are naturally impossible for Shiren to be accepted, including the Japanese in the entire Gyeonggi region.

They cannot accept the abdication of the Emperor.

"In the war manifesto of the Ming people, you are the number one war criminal."

Ashikaga Yoshiman threw out another bombshell: "The Ming Dynasty said that there is only one emperor between heaven and earth, that is, the so-called supreme Minglian emperor Zhu Yunwen. Whether it is gods or thousands of Buddhas, the heaven, earth, sun and moon are all the ministers. If you are accused of the emperor, you are the crime of being the best and rebellious, and you will punish the three clans."

He was the number one war criminal and the three clans were killed. Ashikaga Yoshiman was intimidating and frightened Shiren so much that he cried out.

"General, I don't want to die. You can't surrender and hand me over."

Seeing Shiren's cowardly look, Ashikaga Yoshima sighed deeply: "As long as your Majesty is unwilling to be judged, the 14 million people in Japan are willing to protect Your Majesty. Even if you die, you will definitely die in front of Your Majesty. Please move your Majesty and follow me to the barracks to inspire the morale of the army."

At this time, Shiren, who was completely unruly, could he say anything else? He followed Ashigaki Yoshiman's horse and stood up and followed Ashigaki Yoshiman out of the palace.

It seemed that he could feel Shiren's fear and tension, and Ashikaga Yoshiman also reached out to hold Shiren's little hand.

Like a father holding a child.

The temperature in Ashikaga Yoshiman's palm calmed Shiren's shaking to a certain extent, but with a roaring cannon, Shiren sat directly on the ground.

The Ming Dynasty has reached Kyoto?
