Japan Province, Osaka Prefecture.

Since the 12th year of Tianwu, Zhu Cilang personally marched to pacify Japan, and granted the title of Daming of the vassals. Japan was officially incorporated into the territory of the Ming Dynasty.

After several years of recovery, with the hard work and enterprising spirit of the Yamato people and the strong trade support from the Ming Dynasty, Japan Island developed well and showed a prosperous and prosperous situation. By the 20th year of Tianwu, the Japanese Province was officially established.

As a key trading port, Osaka Prefecture has developed particularly well. The pier is docked with ships from various countries, densely packed like fish.

On this day, Osaka Pier became lively. You could see yamen run and patrol around the streets, as well as many samurai with long swords, and many people running around.

On the dock, the yamen runners responsible for patrol were on guard. They pulled up banners early and waited for the arrival of the imperial envoy of the court.

"Sakata-kun, how is your situation?"

A military officer wearing Ming officer uniform and two swords were inserted between his waist, strode over and asked at the officer walking towards him.

Sakata replied: "If you want to know the master, the area under his subordinates is very good, and no abnormalities are found!"

Osaka Castle Defense Military Attendant Mitsuru Yoshizawa stood at the dock, his eyes rolling, and he looked around vigilantly, fearing that someone would have something to do.

After the decisive battle of Sekihara, Yoshizawa Mingliang, who was in a tough position, worked as a Japanese prisoner of war for half a year. Because of his good performance, he was included in the Ming army stationed in Japan and was promoted to an Osaka Castle Defense Officer.

Today is a major day when the imperial envoy came to Japan. Yoshizawa Mingliang dared not be negligent and inspected the dock himself early in the morning.

They received news early on that the new imperial envoy was a young nobleman and the son of Xu Qingshan, the commander of the Japanese commander, was attached very much to the Japanese provincial authorities.

The sun was shining and the blue was cloudless. There were crowds of people on the port, and there were countless men and women. They all wanted to see the style of the imperial envoy.

"Here is here! The imperial envoy's ceremonial guard is here!"

Yoshizawa Mingliang looked up and saw warships coming from the sea.

Gradually, the warships on the sea became clearer and clearer. Not long after, tall warships broke down and moored in the port.

Xu Mingwu's imperial envoy took the lead in disembarking, and cheers immediately rang out on the dock.

"Welcome to the imperial envoy to the future!"

Unlike the situation when King Ding was coming, the shouts at this time were almost all Chinese and very fluent.

Xu Mingwu, dressed in an imperial envoy robe, got off the warship and stepped onto the land of Dongying Province. He looked at the scene in front of him and sighed in his heart.

"Fuck, this place is really good. It's better to meet than to be famous!"

Xu Mingwu found that most of the people who came to welcome him were women. On hot days, they were dressed in a coquettish manner, and their screams made people fascinated.

He didn't know that this scene was deliberately done by the official in Japan, and they seemed to know the senior officials from the local area very well.

Xu Mingwu exchanged a few simple greetings with the Osaka Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture Prefecture, then entered the city to attend a welcome banquet and enjoyed a plate of luxurious dishes.

The prefect is a local. I heard that it was the son of a certain daimyo. He intended to stay Xu Mingwu overnight. He was a mean person in his words and was very good at it.

However, Xu Mingwu refused seriously and said that he would rush to the Imperial Palace of Kyoto overnight to meet the Queen and His Highness of the East.

The prefect had no choice but to choose two beautiful girls in their 20s and 20s to accompany them to the north.

On the morning of April 16, Xu Mingwu's team of imperial envoys took a train north and arrived in Kyoto that night.

There, Xu Mingwu was warmly treated by several daimyos in Kyoto, which made him feel a little embarrassed. It turned out that being an imperial envoy could still be so good!

The next morning, Xu Mingwu first visited Xu Sheng, a famous man named Wu'an Gong beside Emperor Tianwu, to express his purpose. Then he went to the imperial residence with Xu Sheng to meet the Queen and the East King, and read out the emperor's decree.

The Queen of Japan is easy to talk to, just like the rumor, but the Queen seems to be reluctant to go to the capital, so she only asked Xu Mingwu to take the King of East back to Beijing on a date.

Xu Mingwu then remembered that this queen was once the queen of Japan. Somehow she had hooked up with Emperor Tianwu and gave birth to a son.

Perhaps she felt guilty to the emperors of all generations, and was deceived by Emperor Tianwu to turn Japan into a province of the Ming Dynasty.

Xu Mingwu didn't want to inquire about these gossip news. After arguing with the Queen, he took Li Shangyong to Tokyo.

The identity of the imperial envoy is not a big deal. It is unobstructed along the way, and no one dares to wear small shoes for him. Everything goes so smoothly.

What worried Xu Mingwu the most was Li Shaoyou, Duke of Chao, whose son Li Shangyong was turned into a lunatic in the capital. He was very worried that the family would retaliate.

Fortunately, before leaving, Xu Qingshan had already given him a vaccination, asking him to act in a low-key manner and not to easily anger the Duke of the Divine Republic.

Xu Mingwu was not stupid either, so he naturally would not cause trouble. He did not go to the Duke of Chao personally, but asked the deputy envoy to send Li Shangyong back. He simply escaped and started to wander the Guandong Plain with the imperial mission inspected by the imperial envoy.

Xu Mingwu and his group first visited several factories. Although they were just a quick look, they were still shocked by the momentum of the Kanto Plain Industrial Zone.

What he could not imagine was that the industrial development here was far beyond his imagination!

The chimneys and blast furnaces, intertwined like spider webs, extend widely into the factory area, with all connections, trains spraying steam, pulling trucks of coal, and flatbed trucks with various large castings...

In addition to the dense textile factories, there are more military industry, mining areas, iron plants, military weapons bureaus, and one-stop assembly line, with a scale of no less than that of Taiping Prefecture, Zhili.

In the next few days, Xu Mingwu conducted a secret visit to the Kanto Plain through a secret visit and found that in addition to the large number of military factories, there were also many shipyards along the coast, and they were built with small and medium-sized warships.

He had a vague premonition, because through visits, he found that these military industries were basically under the Eastern Protectorate, and the scale was several times higher than that of other Protectorate!

The location of the East Province is excellent and there are almost no enemies around it. Why did the East Protectorate need to establish so many military weapons bureaus?

It would be nonsense to attack Dadongguo!

The Great East Kingdom is still in North America, with the vast Great East Ocean between them. The small and medium-sized warships they built cannot float to the New World!

It is rumored that the Duke of the DPRK Li Shaoyou, a magistrate of the border, was very dishonest. In official words, it was a slight man's court!

After seeing the situation in the East Province, Xu Mingwu then understood why the court took advantage of the opportunity to welcome the East King every two years to send an imperial envoy to inspect Japan. It turned out that he was worried about this guy!

But he didn't understand why Emperor Tianwu was so tough, so why didn't he transfer Li Shaoyou directly?

Just as Xu Mingwu was about to set off to return to Kyoto, a team of cavalry came over and stopped his imperial envoy.

The cavalry general led by the head was cold and held a military order, and said in a bad mood: "Imperial envoy, the Duke of Chao asked you to come to the mansion to discuss."

The other party was very rude and didn't even get off the war horse, which caused Xu Mingwu to frown.
Chapter completed!
