Papa. A crackling sound was heard, and a golden and red lion danced on the streets of Edo Castle. Next to the lion dance, a group of Han people beat gongs and drums, which attracted the Japanese people in Edo Castle to come out to watch. In addition to seeing such a unique Chinese custom in the Han residential area of ​​Nagasaki Port.

The place where gongs and drums is located in the relatively prosperous streets of Edo Castle. Only the shogunate retainers or noble samurai with higher status are qualified to live here. However, a house here was seized by Kyushu military silver and power.

Red silk blocked a gold-lacquered wooden sign, while the commander of the Beiyang Fleet Zheng Zhilong wore traditional Hanfu and attended the opening ceremony with a group of civil servants and merchants from Guannan. In addition to these big figures from China, there were also a group of Beiyang Fleet soldiers who came to Edo Castle to serve as instructors, as well as ministers from the shogunate, and the tents. The outside were Edo Castle residents who came to watch.

"Thank you for coming and supporting the audience." Zheng Zhilong bowed to the people present, and used Japanese language, which surprised the people of Edo Castle near the venue and whispered to each other.

They never thought that this leading Chinese officer was a businessman who was robbing the Japanese waters ten years ago with the Chinese pirates at that time. Even his wife was a resident of Jiuzhou Island. His Japanese language was second only to Chinese. In this way, Zheng Zhilong seemed less frightening in their eyes.

"The General of the Conquering Yi has arrived!"

Suddenly, a bunch of samurai came from the direction of the shogunate fortress, each with a samurai sword around his waist and wearing loose samurai uniforms, and opened the way forward. The movements caused by the Kyushu army in the city were even alarmed by the current shogun Tokugawa Iemitsu and appeared at the scene with the guard!

Unexpectedly, Tokugawa Iemitsu did not show off except bringing a team of guards over, but also had a knife around his waist and was wearing casual and loose samurai uniforms. If all the samurai were not surrounded by him, it would be difficult to tell who was the real shogun.

A group of Edo Castle residents on the street knelt down and bowed to the shogun and regarded them as gods.

"Ha, what kind of wind is blowing the Great General of the Conquering Yi?" Zheng Zhilong walked towards Tokugawa Iemitsu with a generous look and stretched out his hand.

The samurai near Tokugawa Iegami saw that Zheng Zhilong was not very respectful to the shogun and tried to approach Tokugawa Iegami, and his hand was already pressed on the hilt of the Taidao. If Zheng Zhilong did anything, they might suddenly take down Zheng Zhilong at any time.

Tokugawa Iemitsu pressed his hands with his hands, indicating that the samurai should not act rashly.

He smiled slightly and awkwardly as he reached out his hand. This was a historic moment. The Supreme Japanese ruler shook hands with the Supreme Commander of the Kyushu Army in Japan. Perhaps Tokugawa Iemitsu did not realize that the change of power in Japan had also begun at this moment. The Kyushu Army forced the door to Japan like a barbarian.

"Your movements are so fast. You have just obtained the privilege of establishing a school. Soon after, we prepared teachers so quickly to open the first Confucius School in our Edo Castle." Tokugawa Iemitsued Zheng Zhilong's hand and stared at Zheng Zhilong's eyes.

In the entire Japanese Kingdom, except for his father and grandfather Tokugawa Ieyasu, no one can talk to him on an equal basis. Today, Zheng Zhilong from China can become an existence that talks with him on an equal basis. The person in front of him is not the highest-ranking person in China. According to the information collected by Tokugawa Ieki, there are at least ten powerful forces like Zheng Zhilong who are qualified to command independently!

According to the current situation, Tokugawa Iemitsu is just the ten giants in China. He is a little short of the real leader of China Chu Yun. Wouldn't he indirectly admit that both sides are not equal?

"Ahem. Our Kyushu Army set up a private school in Nagasaki Port a few years ago. It is easy to send some gentlemen from there and Liaonan to come." Zheng Zhilong smiled, "Please come here, you are our most honorable guest."

Tokugawa Iemitsu frowned slightly. Is there a king's land under the world? This Edo Castle is clearly his territory. Now it has been overshadowed by the Kyushu Army. He became a guest?

The arrival of Tokugawa Ieki made Tadaka Sakai, who was originally responsible for monitoring Zheng Zhilong, a guest. Tokugawa Ieki and Zheng Zhilong stood side by side, and even made the people of Edo Castle around him whisper, discussing what kind of terrible origin would be the person who could sit with the shogun!

"The head of the family, I don't know what the name of the school established by the Kyushu Army in our Edo Castle? I heard that Chinese culture pays the most attention to elegance and meaning, and the names of the school often express their wishes." Tadao Sakai said to Tokugawa Iemitsu from the side.

"They can't wait to set up a school here, but they are really sinister. I thought the privileges required by the Edo Castle Treaty will be implemented in at least two or three years." Tokugawa Iemitsu, as a bystander, watched the lion dance performance, but did not feel like appreciating it.

"Yes, we must send someone to monitor the school's every move, so as not to spread words in Edo Castle that are not conducive to the dominance of the head of the family." Tadaoka Sakai was also full of vigilance for Zheng Zhilong and everything he did, and said to Tokugawa Iemitsu.

After the performance of the lion dance team, the opera troupe from China brought another firecracker to celebrate the establishment of the first school in Edo Castle.

"Everyone, this is a memorable moment. Since ancient times, our Chinese civilization has been educated thousands of miles and shining on the world. There are countless sages and masters, and this place is also influenced by China. In the past, we needed to send Tang envoys to Zhongzhou to study advanced culture, which really took a great risk. So we considered it over and over again and decided to establish a school here. From then on, the two countries will exchange it together as one." Zheng Zhilong pulled it with his hand, and the bright red satin fell down, revealing golden lacquer and red wood, with four big words engraved with gold lacquer on it - "Tokyo School".

"This is the first school we set up in Edo Castle, teaching Confucian classics, astronomy and geography, and adopting an assessment and admission system. Registerers are not limited to their status, only their assessment results are recognized!" Zheng Zhilong said loudly.

Wow! The people of Edo Castle were in an uproar. In the Japanese country with strict hierarchy, there are schools that do not restrict class and adopt assessment methods to admit them!
