Chapter 473: Qiu Chuji, the messenger of the Khan Court

"Haha, the work of the Ministry of Works is not easy, so there is no need to worry about the Secretary of Song." Wang Xun rescued Song Defang and said, "The Taoist Master Qiu also clicks Mao at the time every day, and our Ministry of Rites can't see it. I think when Your Highness makes a decision, he will retreat calmly when he gets the news."

In fact, the Ministry of Rites does not need to be so polite to Qiu Chuji! But the other party had signed up for the Khan, and this time he came to the capital and brought the Khan's order, so it was difficult to drive him out of the Khan's office.

While everyone was talking, Ulutus also arrived at the Military Pavilion.

"I pay homage to Your Highness!" Everyone stood up and saluted.

Ulutus waved his hand and asked someone to sit back and said, "It's urgent, let's talk about the serious matters."

Everyone immediately responded and began to talk about countermeasures.

"Your Highness, I think that if the Khan Court does not send troops to fight, then food, grass and weapons must be given. The Xia Kingdom's side has no open help, but the Jin Kingdom can help more on the firearms. You can also discuss with the Jin Kingdom to let the Jin Kingdom help each other." The Privy Council passed the qi early, so when Zhou Shao spoke, the five ministers and other Privy Councilors all agreed.

The Governor's Office means to continue to guard against the Khan Court. If the war situation is not good for the Khan Court, the north of the desert can be seized in the west and Youzhou can be seized in the south. If all Hebei can be captured and connected with the Shandong province outside the Ming Dynasty, it would be better.

Of course, if Khan Ting wins, these thoughts can only be safe for the time being.

It sounds like Ulutus also roughly understood what they mean, that is, they cannot be enemies with the Khanate for the time being.

Speaking of which, this is also in line with Ulutus' wishes.

Because the war between the Khanate and Xia State was also considered to be the result of Ulutus's efforts. The secret guard was instructed by Ulutus and secretly trained a group of mobs who built roads, disguised as ambushers from Xia State, and suddenly injured people on the way back to the main force of the Khanate.

Unfortunately, the result was almost the same as Ulutus expected. Even though the mobs had the advantage of the surprise attack, they could not really hurt the noble uncle.

However, Dongyan, which was successful, achieved the expected goal.

Then, in conjunction with the transformation of Xia State, the Supreme Emperor and court officials who were close to Mongolia were all uprooted, and even the envoy Bolu was killed, which confirmed Xia State's disobedience towards the Khanate.

In this way, the Khanate would not resort to force against Ming Dynasty for some time.

Thinking of this, Ulutus said, "Let's do it according to Zhou Shumi's wishes."

There is no better way at the moment, so I can only do this first.

After solving this, Ulutus asked how the weapons, firearms, and food are now prepared. Although the main target of the Khan Court is Xia Kingdom, it is necessary to guard against others. Moreover, it is already autumn, and if you really want to start a war, you still need to make necessary preparations.

During this period, Ming Dynasty naturally had to prepare well.

After listening to the report, he dealt with some outstanding government affairs. Finally, the Ministry of War mentioned a sentence, saying that the Navy was traveling east from Kyushu Island and found a large number of islands. At the end, a large Ryukyu island was also found.

It is not far from Fujian Road in Song State. The detailed routes and nautical charts are currently available to be brought back until the navy sends people back to Beijing to work.

As a later generation, Ulutus knew what was going on in the Ryukyu Island. Although he had a private goods and secretly gave him a chart, the navy should not be able to find it. But the news came so smoothly, which still made Ulutus a little happy.

After all, if a settlement is opened on Ryukyu Island, trade with the Song State will be even more convenient. Especially some business transactions that are inconvenient, especially the Ming Dynasty salt, can be imported into Fujian, Guangdong and Guangxi in Song State in a larger batch.

This is also quite a small benefit to the government of the Ming Dynasty.

What's more, there are large islands like Luzon to the south of Ryukyu Island. Although it is not the Age of Discovery, Ulutus does not mind occupying those islands in advance. The gold, silver, iron ore and other things above are also developed first.

Even with Sado Jinshan from Japan, Ulutus still felt that it was not enough.

With a decision above, the people below will have a charter and idea when doing things.

Wang Xun, who had been hanging Qiu Chuji, took the initiative to make an appointment with Qiu Chuji after returning to the Shangshu Yamen.

Although the other person's hair and beard are gray, his spirit looks very good. Moreover, his eyes are particularly deep, as if he can see through people at one glance.

"Master Qiu, please forgive me. Recently, everything in the yamen has been complicated, and Fusang happens to offer sacrifices. There are also envoys from Xia and Jin countries who are also rushed to see each other. It has been delayed for a few days. Please forgive me."

Wang Xun believed in Shamanism! Although in essence, he did not really believe in Shamanism, he did it sincerely. Therefore, he must do a good job of rejecting other sects.

After all, this is in line with the national affairs of the Ming Dynasty.

Therefore, even though Qiu Chuji is quite famous in the Khan Court, many famous families and powerful families serve him as distinguished guests in Shangjing. They think of ways to prolong their lives so that they can enjoy more wealth and glory.

Wang Xu did not respect Qiu Chuji very much.

Just politely, someone brought tea to Qiu Chuji.

"I am a person outside the world and has always been pure. I am not as busy as Wang Shangshu and so busy as he is. If it weren't for the Khan's trust, I would only want to devote myself to practicing Taoism in the Taoist temple......" Qiu Chuji said politely, which means that he always feels complaining.

"That's! That's! The Khan's trust is the most important thing, it's just that Dao Zheng has a trip." Wang Xun politely took a sip of the tea that had just been filled.

"It's hard to be considered a matter of difficulty. King Khan once said that the Ming Dynasty and the Khanate were the country of nephews and had close relationships. They were also from the Borjijin family, so there was no reason for being bullied by outsiders.

Now Xia Kingdom is a minister and is disrespectful, and it is really hard to forgive the royal family of the Khan Court. The two eldest princesses of Chang Kingdom lost their husbands at a young age. His Highness of Ming Kingdom also had the blood of the Borjijin family. All the Borjijin family members were killed by such anger and resentment from the heavens.

I heard that Your Highness seemed to have come back last night. Today, the Minister of State has been delaying for so long. It must have made a decision, right?"

This is naturally very confidential. Qiu Chuji said this, which also means that Khan Ting has many suspicions in Shangjing City, so he should not hide anything from him.
