Chapter 1227 Chinese Nation Asking for a Monthly Ticket
Drums and music are roaring, and cigarettes are lingering.—{2}{3}{w}{x}
The glorious purple palace has not held such a grand ceremony for about 1,000 years!
The Kyoto Imperial Office was built in 794 AD, when Emperor Kanmu moved the capital to Heian Kyo. For more than a thousand years, Heian Kyoto, which has always been the best place for Japan, and this Kyoto Imperial Office with a strong Tang style was the residence of emperors of all dynasties. However, in the era of Emperor Kanmu, the Japanese imperial power had begun to decline. In order to save the weak imperial power and get rid of the control of the government by the aristocratic families, it was the reason why Emperor Kanmu moved the capital to Heian Kyoto. However, just over 60 years later, Fujiwara Ryoya began to control politics, and Japan officially entered the era of "Shock Politics". Since then, the Kyoto Imperial Office has no longer been the real center of Japanese politics, and until today it welcomed Zhu Yuyi, the son of the Emperor Ming Dynasty, to become the new master.
Welcoming the Ming Dynasty prince as king of the Kingdom of Japan can be regarded as a major event in Japan's political life. The changes brought about are of course earth-shaking. First, welcoming the Ming Dynasty means the formal completion of the Gongwu fusion. The public who once controlled Japanese politics for hundreds of years and then served as a vase for hundreds of years has completely withdrawn from the Japanese political stage... According to Zhu Jishi's decree, Japanese public families, including the Emperor, will move all to Yingtian Prefecture after Zhu Yukiyo ascended the throne, and become the Ming Dynasty aristocrat rather than the Japanese aristocrat.
Of course, while moving, Zhu Jishi would also give the public a new surname. The Emperor of Heaven would change his surname to Xu and restore their ancestral surname. Since then, there have been four more dukes in Yingtian City. The rest of the public, whether it is the Five He Guan Family or the Ninth Tsinghua Family or the Tsinghua Family with the highest status, the Ministers, the Yulin Family, the famous family and the Ban family, were all moved to Yingtian. Emperor Zhu also gave the Han surname and the Ming title. From then on, they have lived in China for generations and have nothing to do with the Japanese political arena.
In addition to eliminating the public from Japan, Zhu Jishi also promoted another major reform - equality of the four people! While implementing equality of the four people, he also enthroned aristocrats, including imperial nobles and local nobles. The former was enthroned by the Ming court, enjoyed the title, granted land and pension, and needed to be loyal to the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty and assumed corresponding obligations. The latter was enthroned by the Japanese king, with only a name and a small amount of pension. The two nobles enthroned a total of tens of thousands of families (mainly local nobles). The children of aristocrats reached hundreds of thousands. While the enthronement, Zhu Jishi also gave surnames to the new Japanese nobles on a large scale.
Among them, the Tokugawa family was of course the highest aristocrat. They were given the surname Zhu and enjoyed the status of the Japanese royal family. Zhu Qingxi himself was named the Prince of the Ming Dynasty and served as the Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Japan. In addition, he is currently the largest landlord and chaebol in Japan. The land under his name alone has as many as millions of acres, and he can receive rent equivalent to 4 million stones of rice in a year. It is probably the second biggest winner in this major change.
The 20,000,000 ordinary civilians in Japan may be considered as beneficiaries of this change in entering China. First of all, the implementation of "equalities of the four people". In name, they were on par with the samurai masters who were once arrogant... Moreover, they also got surnames (in the past, Japanese civilians did not have surnames). Of course, they were all Han surnames, so just choose them from the hundreds of families.
Then there is the identity of an imperial citizen. In the current Greater China circle, only the people of the Kazakh Khanate, like the people of the Kingdom of Japan, can directly obtain the identity of an imperial citizen. And it is not in the name of naturalization, but in accordance with the standards of birth and naturalization, you can enjoy the power of allocating border land (including the Kingdom of California) to imperial citizens (birth and naturalization) under the "Da Ming House Land Law". You can also participate in collective farms and immigrate to the border with the help of the government.
Xinjiang... With the increasing financial resources of the Ming Dynasty and the initial results of the development of border areas, the danger of immigrating to the border is far from comparable to more than ten years ago, so its attraction to the Han people and Japanese people in the Ming Dynasty has also increased significantly. In recent years, the number of immigrants has increased a lot compared to the past. Every year, more than 5 million people move out of the Han area! In addition, at least 3 million people move from rural areas to cities. The proletariat of the Ming Dynasty is also growing rapidly!
Of course, there is no free lunch in the world, and even less so here is Zhu Jishi!
The Japanese officials who are qualified to attend Zhu Xingyi's coronation ceremony today all know what the price the Japanese National Club has paid for. As for whether it is worth it, it is different from one's own opinion.
The officials who entered the Zichen Palace under the guidance of the Japanese court female officials from the Wu family were all thinking about this issue. Now the Ming Dynasty is busy integrating the yellow races in East Asia, and in order to compete with the white races in Europe in the future. If they can win, the Ming Empire or the Greater China Empire will be the world's number one power and the overlord of the world. It is naturally worth it for the Japanese to become citizens of the number one power, even if they are no longer Japanese but Chinese. If they lose... Amitabha, they must not lose!
"The Emperor is here!" With the crisp and long voice of a female official, the Japanese official wearing Chinese uniforms in the hall quickly knelt on one knee and shouted long live. Then he heard footsteps, and then Zhu Jishi couldn't hide his smile: "Flat, flat!"
Everyone got up and looked up. They saw Zhu Jishi wearing a dragon robe, with a big-looking seat on the throne. In front of him were two embroidered slogans, Zhu Mingzi (Tokugawa Akiko) and a chubby boy in his teens, also wearing a dragon robe and a black winged crown on his head, like the king of a country - he was Zhu Xiongyi. This kid was not raised by Zhu Mingzi. He has lived in the Daming Palace since he was born. He is now a fourth-grade primary school student in the Imperial City School and will soon be promoted to the primary school of Imperial City School. However, this time he became the king of Japan, so he naturally could not go to Imperial City School anymore, but had to transfer to the Japanese study academy... and became classmates with the children of the Japanese ministers in the hall.
Seeing that the ministers had already gotten up, Zhu Jishi smiled and said, "Today is the day when Yukiyoshi ascended the throne of the king of Japan. From today on, the Ming Dynasty and Japan will truly be united! Before my son officially ascended the throne, I still have something to say. It is about the Ming Dynasty, Japan and this Greater China."
His tone before was light, and when he talked about the three words "Great China", he became serious: "As we all know, the Chinese people have had three main branches since ancient times, one is the Han family in the Central Plains; the other is the Japanese Japanese; and the third is the Korean Peninsula. I have been to Japan many times, and what I have seen and heard are all the legacy of the Sui and Tang Dynasties... If it weren't for the Song Dynasty's demise in the Shenzhou of Meng in the past, I was afraid that the Central Plains Japan would have been the same. Fortunately, although the Chinese civilization has experienced two land sinkings today, it was finally
Revival is a blessing from heaven, not the blessing of the Han family in the Central Plains, but the great blessing of the Han, He and the Dynasty. However, the challenges faced by the Chinese people today are even better than those in the past. In the past, the land of China was destroyed by the barbarians. Although the barbarians' military power was stronger than for a while, they did not have a strong civilization to support them. They could seize the power and wealth of China, but could not destroy the Chinese civilization. Moreover, Japan and North Korea either endured humiliation or were protected by the protection of the oceanic divine wind.
The torch of Chinese civilization is waiting for the day of rejuvenation. Now, what threatens the existence of Chinese civilization is the white race in Europe. They are by no means barbarians, but like ours, they are powerful and powerful races supported by a long-standing civilization, and they also have strong maritime power. Once China sinks land again, it will be the end of our East Asian yellow civilization, and Japan will not be able to continue the Chinese civilization with the protection of the ocean. Therefore, the future yellow and white civilization duel will be duel,
It will directly affect our Chinese civilization and the future and destiny of the East Asian race. We can only unite and fight against the enemy with the greatest determination. For this reason, I decided not to distinguish the various ethnic groups under Chinese civilization, but to integrate the East Asian race into one and become a unified Chinese nation! From now on, the Han people, Mongols, Koreans in the Ming Dynasty, and Japanese people will all be confused into one!" (To be continued, please search for astronomy, novels are better and faster!
