Second, your country should know that the Japanese invaded the Ming Dynasty and wreaked havoc in the southeast several decades ago!
Under such circumstances, not only did your country fail to report to the Ming Dynasty, it actually dared to send envoys to visit Japan!
Is this the vassal gift of your country? Is your country serving the Ming Dynasty so sincerely?
Since Yin Zheng has asked you to be polite, please tell me, is this rude?"
The last trace of anger in Yin Zhuoran's heart disappeared without a trace, and his face turned pale!
No wonder the two good-tempered principals would say, "Why did you provoke him?"
Faced with these cross-examinations, he could not answer!
Lin Kebu waved his sleeves and said, "I don't think I need any of these tributes."
Chen Yunjian and Shen Jue stopped Lin Tailai together and reminded him: "Nine yuan, be careful!"
"Absolute tribute" is a decision that the emperor can make on behalf of the Ming Dynasty. This is the emperor's power, and ministers must not overstep it!
Lin Tailai muttered a few words in his heart. This matter is not over yet, but he still needs to think about how to continue to use it.
Then he changed his mind and said, "Start ordering the tributes!"
Anyway, we have found the place again, let’s finish our work first.
However, Mr. Lin was not interested in such trivial matters as counting tributes and registering them, so he left them all to his subordinates.
He caught Yin Zhengshi again and asked, "Where is the expression?"
The so-called manifesto refers to the document that the Korean mission should submit to the Ming court.
A complete set will include several documents such as tables, notes, statements, memorials, etc., referred to as table documents.
The form is written to the emperor, and the note is written to the crown prince (of course there will be none this time). They are all ceremonial documents.
Instead, they were written to the Ministry of Rites and other yamen to discuss specific matters.
Although a set of expressions is not completely equivalent to a letter of credence, it can also be understood as a letter of credence.
Yin Zhengshi became much more honest now and replied: "According to the ritual system of pilgrimage, when you visit the Minister of Rites of the Ming Dynasty, you will submit the statement to the Minister of Rites."
Lin Tailai said impatiently: "Just give me the confession now!"
Yin Zhuoran suspected that Master Lin did not understand what he meant, and reminded him: "Tomorrow, the envoy will go to see the Minister of Rites."
Lin Tailai snorted coldly: "I won't stop you from going to see Yu Shangshu. I just want you to hand over the confession to me now.
If you are not around, ask the deputy envoy to go back to the meeting hall and get the form!"
Yin Zhengshi tried his best to distinguish and said: "This is inconsistent with etiquette."
Lin Tailai asked sadly: "Do you still want to talk to me about courtesy?"
Yin Zhengshi: "."
Then I go to see the Minister of Rites tomorrow and what will I get with empty hands?
Lin Tailai said disapprovingly: "When you meet Yu Shangshu, just tell him that you have given me all the expressions, and he will understand!"
Receiving the North Korean delegation is probably the last "important" task before you take leave and leave Beijing. You must do it well!
After counting the tributes, Yin Zheng left the Host and Guest Department of the Ministry of Rites in a daze.
Theoretically, the Minister of Rites should be the immediate superior of the doctor in charge of guests in the Ministry of Rites, right?
But why was the host and guest doctor so disapproving of the attitude of the Minister of Rites, and even blatantly intercepted the statement that should have been submitted to the Minister of Rites?
Suddenly Yin Zheng made a hiding ()
I vaguely felt that I was caught in an internal fight among the officials of the Ming Dynasty.
Manishi’s eighth birthday! He is here to travel at public expense and conduct private trade to make money. How can he be involved in the power struggle between the superior countries?
In the morning of the next day, Yin Zhuoran, the angel of the Joseon Dynasty, came to the Ministry of Rites again and went to see Yu Shenxing, the Minister of Rites.
After a few dry exchanges, Yu Shangshu looked at the empty-handed North Korean envoy with confusion. Where is your credentials?
Yin Zhengshi replied: "Yesterday when I went to the Host and Guest Office to submit the tribute, the memorial was forcibly taken away by the Host and Guest Office doctor."
Yu Shangshu told Yin Zhengshi without any expression: "Just step back!"
After Yin Zhengshi left the court, Yu Shangshu couldn't help but slap the case and asked: "What does Lin Tailai want to do again?"
Yu Kong, the doctor of the Ceremony Department, the first department of the Ministry of Etiquette, accompanied Yu Shangshu to receive the envoy.
At this time, he replied simply and concisely: "Seize power."
According to the system, after the Minister of Rites accepted the set of documents from Korea on behalf of the court, he would forward them to the Department of Ceremony.
Then the Department of Ceremony will study the content of the form and draft a "reply", which will be reported to the palace with the approval of the Minister of Rites.
Lin Tailai directly snatched away this link. He was obviously not satisfied with the transactional and consultative work content, and wanted to directly participate in foreign policy decision-making.
In fact, Yu Shangshu didn't understand this very much. Why is this power worth grabbing?
If it is a matter involving huge interests, it is understandable and understandable to compete for decision-making power.
This kind of decision-making on the foreign affairs of the vassal state is purely cosmetic work. How much benefit can there be?
When it comes to foreign-related work, the biggest profit is probably in the reception and opening of the market, but these are already under the direct control of the host and customer department.
Yu Kong Jian, the director of the Ceremony Department, could not figure it out and could only say: "Perhaps Lin Tailai was born with a disease, and he was infinitely thirsty for power and never let go of any opportunity."
Yu Shangshu finally said: "It doesn't matter. No matter why Lin Jiuyuan took away the Korean national document, he will always go through me when he drafts the memorial for this!"
Chapter completed!
