Chapter 1133: Behind the scenes
"This... should be considered to be a great contribution, right?" Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jian, but in fact he felt a little unconfident.
Liu Jian thought carefully and couldn't help but think that the Japanese have always been capricious, and the Japanese pirates are so rampant, which is inseparable from the Japanese's shelter. Since this is the case, there seems to be nothing wrong with the Japanese.
Of course... Although Ye Chunqiu's report is a bit dramatic, Liu Jian has a good impression of Ye Chunqiu. It is true that if you ask someone to practice a navy, can you still point fingers?
Although I still felt that it was a little unacceptable, Liu Jian still said: "I saw it with my own eyes when the navy fight, which was really thrilling. Ye Chunqiu was good at coordinating the navy. The old minister thought that his hard work and contributions were indeed appropriate to the Duke of Zhenguo."
"That's right." Zhu Houzhao became excited. To a certain extent, he would not care about the feelings of the Japanese. He didn't even care about the feelings of the masters, and he could still care about the Japanese who were completely unmatched?
Instead, he was more interested in Ye Chunqiu's sweeping Japan. At this time, he couldn't help but think of the most important question and said, "So where is Ye Chunqiu now?"
"I am in Ningbo, but at this time, I have already set out to Beijing." Liu Jian said: "I believe the Duke of Zhenguo also wants to go back and visit relatives."
Zhu Houzhao breathed a long sigh, and the turbid air in his heart was vomited out, and his tone became lighter: "That's good, let's prepare for the welcome, let the Duke of England be responsible for the welcome."
However, at this moment, Liu Jin, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but feel despair in his heart. He was really lucky. He had been missing for nearly two months, why didn't he die yet? He suddenly felt embarrassed. The tears just now were still hanging in his eyes. Now he still wanted to cry, but this time he really felt heartache, and even the grief on his face was real.
But after a moment of silence, Liu Jian said, "But I don't know how your Majesty thinks the matter of Japan should be solved? No matter what, cough... Although our Ming Dynasty was to kill Japanese pirates, I was afraid that it would inevitably be injured by the Japanese. Daming Ze was killed by all sides. If this matter spreads, it will inevitably lead to suspicion from all countries."
Liu Jian was very clever and did not mention the ancestral teachings of the Great Edict and Taizu, which was completely avoiding the important things.
Zhu Houzhao didn't think much about it and said, "What's the difficulty? Anyway, Japan and our Ming Dynasty have become evil, so just ignore it."
"Do you should send an envoy to comfort me?" Liu Jian felt that it was still a bit inappropriate. Foreign affairs were no small matters. For a huge country like the Ming Dynasty, any slight move may lead to different interpretations from others. He still felt that it was better to be cautious.
Zhu Houzhao was not interested in this, so he said according to the old method: "Then please discuss with all the masters and make a charter."
He was about to drive away the person, but after so many days of worry, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid he could have a good sleep tonight, so it was difficult to share any happiness with Liu Jian and his masters. However, at this moment, a eunuch hurried in and said, "Report to Your Majesty, Tongzhengsi reported... It was said that there was a civil rebellion in Jiangnan."
Several kings and ministers who had fallen into their hearts had a sudden slap in their hearts.
In this world, there can be accidents everywhere, but Jiangnan cannot. What kind of civil rebellion can Jiangnan cause?
Between shock and hesitation, the Tongzheng envoy came in and said, "I received urgent reports from Fujian, Nanzhili, Zhejiang, saying that it was arousing civil unrest in various places. Many soldiers and civilians surrounded the government offices, saying that Zhenguo Mansion had a feud with its neighbors. The disaster was right in front of us. The Japanese and Japanese pirates were different. Now the navy of Zhenguo Mansion attacked Japan will only increase the Japanese pirates day by day, and only cause the soldiers and civilians in Jiangnan to suffer. Therefore, he asked the court to immediately appease the Japanese dynasty, punish the people who caused the accident, and also make the good Japanese dynasty a fair. It also said that there are rumors in all directions that the navy launched a large-scale murder in Japan, which caused the hatred of the Ming dynasty to increase day by day, and the people along the southeast coast are now very frightened..."
After hearing this... Zhu Houzhao was furious. He slapped the table and said, "No, who said this? How to chase and suppress the Japanese pirates will make the military and civilians uneasy. Report it to me!"
When the Tongzheng envoy made a report, Zhu Houzhao looked at it and just sneered. He had never been so angry. After reading the report, he ordered people to pass the report to Liu Jian and others. He immediately said: "Look at what kind of stupid words are here, this must be someone behind the scenes. If he is really a good military and civilian, he will definitely not be like this. Let the Jinyiwei, no, let the Duke of Wei personally lead his troops to suppress it. Whoever dares to tell the truth will be killed without mercy, and they must kill a few people!"
After seeing it, Liu Jian's expression was cold. He was not as furious as Zhu Houzhao. Instead, he said calmly: "There is something strange."
"Hmm?" Zhu Hou looked at Liu Jian, as if he was waiting for Liu Jian to continue talking.
Liu Jian slowly said: "There is obviously something strange about the civil unrest here. Although these people surrounded the yamen and were very powerful, they did not dare to make mistakes. They did not cause any trouble. Moreover, Zhejiang, Nanzhili, and Fujian suddenly broke out at the same time, which shows that there must be a mastermind behind this."
Zhu Houzhao looked at Liu Jian deeply and said meaningfully: "Of course, several places have occurred at the same time. I don't believe that such a coincidence is happening, and I also know who is behind the scenes!"
In Zhu Houzhao's eyes, the so-called mastermind behind the scenes are those private businesses behind the scenes, haha...
I thought I didn't understand anything? They were in a hurry to jump over the wall. Before I could do anything, they were the evil ones who complained first.
Zhu Houzhao is young, and young people are often full of energy.
Liu Jian said seriously: "So what will Your Majesty plan to deal with it?"
Zhu Houzhao said without thinking, "Of course, I will kill you all."
"But..." Liu Jian experienced more things than Zhu Houzhao after all, and soon thought of many difficulties in it, and said, "There are thousands of people who cause trouble, among which there are ulterior motives, some of whom are just joining in the fun, and there are even ignorant people who are bewitched. Does Your Majesty want to kill them all?"
Zhu Houzhao was stunned for a moment, then said, "Of course, I'm finding out the evil one!"
Liu Jian smiled bitterly and said, "Who is the chief evil? Let the provincial governors investigate. It would be fine if the governors were upright and unfair, but what if it had something to do with the people who were instigated behind them? If they mean deer and horses, they shelter those real evildoers, but they shouted to kill innocent people? If Your Majesty sent an imperial envoy, and the imperial envoy arrived at the place and did not understand the situation, it would be a year or two later. At that time, will Your Majesty really make sure that they will not be free from justice?"
