Two hundred and sixtieth chapters king
Although it is already autumn in Beijing in September, the weather is still very hot. The "Autumn Tiger" in the sky is still showing its might, which makes people feel a little worried. On the day of Wang Yuze's ascension ceremony, it was also so hot, no matter how it is.
Wang Yuze was also the ministers and guests who watched the ceremony, and they were all sweating profusely, which would be a little bad.
On the evening of September 11, Wang Yuze did not spend dinner with his wife and children as usual, but instead invited guests. Wang Yuze now has the government affairs to the cabinet, and the military affairs are the General Staff and the Army and Navy Department.
Just focus on the general direction, which makes him have a lot of spare time and can take more time to accompany his family. If he is not out, the dinner will be eaten with the whole family every night, which makes it even more interesting.
The whole family was having fun, which made Wang Yuze enjoy this family atmosphere very much.
The Songtao Pavilion in Xinhua Palace is where Wang Yuze specially hosts ministers, but it is not big and can only accommodate more than a dozen people. If you want to have a banquet for the ministers, it must be changed to Fanghua Palace.
Today, Wang Yuze's banquet was two vassal states in China, North Korea and Ryukyu. The current King of North Korea, Gaozong, Lee Hee, and Princess Min, had arrived in Beijing a few days ago. The Chinese team brought them from the Japanese army.
They were rescued from the tiger's mouth, of course they had to thank him. It happened that it was Wang Yuze's ascension ceremony again, and as a vassal state, they naturally had to attend. Originally, after Japan was defeated, the Japanese wanted to capture them to Japan.
But halfway through the road, he was rescued by the Zhong** team. However, although Lee Hee and Min were rescued, their son Lee Tuo was killed by the Japanese, which made North Korea now have no prince again. However,
It is already very good for them to survive. The prince is gone and can be reborn. Even if they can't be born, they can adopt a child from the sidelines. Isn't Gaozong Li Xi himself a sidelines of the Korean royal family?
Wang Yuze has no impression of Joseph Lee Hee. He is not tall, has a little thin body, has a pale face, and looks overly indulgent. Of course, Lee Hee is a king who is overly drunk and indulgent in his voice, so it is inevitable that he will not be able to avoid it.
But Queen Min was very interested in Wang Yuze. Although Queen Min was over forty years old, she was very well maintained and did not look old at all, just like a young woman in her thirties.
Wang Yuze thought that there were no beauties in Goryeo, and even if there were, they were all artificial. But now, he had to admit that Queen Min was indeed a rare beauty, and even at this age, she still had charm. She and Wang Yuze themselves
Compared with his wife, she may not be able to surpass her beauty, but she has a charming charm of becoming a shu woman, which makes Wang Yuze take a few more glances.
As for the King of Ryukyu Shangtai, he is completely a gray-haired old man. In fact, Shangtai is only fifty-two years old this year, but he has been under house arrest in Tokyo since 1879. Over the past decade, he has been very bad.
, and with exhaustion, he showed an old look. However, Shangtai originally thought that he would probably have to die in Japan in his life. But he did not expect that the army of the Celestial Empire defeated the Japanese, and the Celestial Empire had not forgotten him yet.
The Japanese were released back, which made Shang Tai cry. Sure enough, the Celestial Empire was the best for them and other vassal states!
"My Li Xi (My concubine Min) kowtowed to His Majesty the Emperor! Long live long live long!" When Wang Yuze appeared in Songtao Pavilion, King Lee Xi of Jose, and Princess Min immediately knelt down and kowtowed.
"My Lord Shang Tai kowtows to His Majesty the Emperor! Long live long live long live long!" Shang Tai reacted a little slower, but immediately knelt down and bowed. Although Wang Yuze has not officially ascended the throne and became emperor, in their opinion, this is a foregone conclusion.
After the matter was done, he naturally performed the courtesy of the king and the ministers to Wang Yuze.
"All up! Thank you all the way!" Wang Yuze said. Nowadays, there are only two vassal states in China. Vietnam in the south has long forgotten the sect leader under the control of the French.
Thailand has become independent and ignores China even more. Myanmar is also under the control of the British, so naturally it will not come to congratulate Wang Yuze to ascend the throne and become emperor.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" The three of them bowed again before getting up.
"Let's take your seat first! Wang Wei, I'm going to order the food!" Wang Yuze said.
"Yes!" Wang Wei nodded. Then, the palace maids brought the dishes for the dinner. The dishes were not rich, but they looked very exquisite. Chinese people have always paid great attention to food in this regard.
Although there are only a few dishes, it is also a rare delicacy in the eyes of kings such as North Korea and Ryukyu.
"King of Ryukyu, what are you doing recently? The Japanese have not bullied you, right? We have all sent back to the Japanese in Ryukyu. In addition, the Tugala Islands and Osumi Islands in the north of Ryukyu are also all belonging to Ryukyu. Ryukyu.
People should immigrate as soon as possible,” said Wang Yuze.
"My dear Shang Tai thanked God for his kindness. If the Heavenly Dynasty had not defeated Japan, Xiao Wang would have died of old age in Japan. The great kindness of the Heavenly Dynasty, I, Shang Tai and the Ryukyu subjects, will never forget this forever!" Shang Tai knelt down on the ground again,
He said gratefully.
Ryukyu was originally a small country and had always been a vassal state of China. However, after the Opium War, Japan began to annex Ryukyu. After twenty or thirty years, it completely swallowed Ryukyu, which led to the later generations of Okinawa Prefecture, Japan.
But now, the Japanese no longer have this opportunity. Not only did they spit out Ryukyu, but they also took on many of their own places. Although Ryukyu is a small country and its products are not rich, its strategic position is quite important. Ryukyu and
Taiwan, plus the island chain formed by Japan, in later generations, completely locked the Chinese Navy in the near sea and could not enter the Western Pacific. Now, Wang Yuze first took the initiative to take Ryukyu in his hands, and Naba Port is natural again.
The deep water port can be used as a base for the navy and is very effective for the Chinese Navy to go out of the Western Pacific.
"Ryukyu is a vassal state of China. Of course, China will not watch Ryukyu be bullied. Before, the Chinese artifacts were covered with dust, which made Ryukyu wronged. I promise that this will never happen again. Let's do it alone. I will invest in it.
One million yuan is used to rebuild Ryukyu." Wang Yuze said. King Shangtai of Ryukyu was already poor and jingling sounded. When he returned to Ryukyu, it was probably difficult to hold on. Wang Yuze gave him one million, so he could live
A good day last time.
"I thanked Your Majesty for your kindness!" Shang Tai was so grateful that he was unparalleled. After returning from Japan, he didn't even have a good piece of clothing, and his life was extremely difficult. Even the clothes he wore were provided by the inn.
.
"In addition, I heard from the people of the Navy that Naha Port is a natural good port. The Navy wants to rent a piece of land in Naha to build a military base for the training of the Chinese Navy. I don't know what the King of Ryukyu wants to do.
How?” Wang Yuze asked.
"Back to Your Majesty, the Heavenly Kingdom can respect the land of Ryukyu. The Heavenly Kingdom can just use it. Xiao Wang is very happy." Shang Tai said hurriedly. He is still worried now, if the Japanese call again in the future
If so, what should he do? If there is a Zhong** team stationed, he will be able to rest assured. So, Wang Yuzeyi proposed it, and Shang Tai agreed without saying a word.
"Let's do this, there will be a piece of land in Naha Port, the Navy Concession, and will pay Ryukyu 200,000 yuan a year from now on!" Wang Yuze said.
"Everything is up to Your Majesty!" Shang Tai said happily. Two hundred thousand yuan was a huge sum of money, enough for him to live a worry-free life.
The Joseon King Lee Hee, who was beside him, saw Wang Yuze rewarded Shang Tai with one million yuan, and was envious. Now North Korea has been plundered by Japan and has long been poor. Even if he is the king, his life is very difficult.
.But, Wang Yuze didn't speak, and he didn't want to say much.
"Your Majesty, our North Korea's Busan Port is also a natural port, and it is close to Japan. If the Celestial Navy can station here, it will be the best for the Celestial Navy to prevent Japan!" Queen Min spoke. If the Chinese Navy was in charge, it would be the best for the Celestial Navy to prevent Japan!"
If they stay in Busan again, they will not only get a loan, but more importantly, their safety will be guaranteed from now on! This can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
"Busan Port? I haven't heard from the Admiralty Department about this. If I ask them when I have time, let's talk about it!" Wang Yuze said. In fact, Wang Yuze, the port of Busan Port, knew that it was indeed a good port in Northeast Asia, and it also guarded the Korean Strait.
Strategic location is also very important. However, as Queen Min said, Japan is too close to Busan Port. Once a war begins, it will become Japan's primary target of attack and Japan's target of landing in North Korea. Unless the Chinese Navy deploys here
Heavy troops, otherwise they would not be able to confront Japan. Therefore, Wang Yuze does not want to develop the Busan Port for the time being. Compared with Busan Port, Wang Yuze attaches more importance to Jeju Island. Jeju Island is not only beautiful in scenery, but also located in the center of the Korean Strait and has a good port.
.If you can occupy Jeju Island, you can completely block the Korean Strait. Wang Yuze also wants to control Jeju Island, but it is not renting it, but completely occupying it. Of course, you can also buy the island from North Korea.
Seeing that Wang Yuze did not agree immediately, Queen Min was a little disappointed, but she couldn't say anything more.
Next, the banquet began. King Lee Hee of Korea and King Sang-tae of Ryukyu both toasted Wang Yuze frequently, and Wang Yuze was also here. Even Queen Min toasted Wang Yuze a few glasses of wine. Originally, Wang Yuze's alcohol tolerance was not very good, so this time it was even more
She was a little fluttering. In addition, Queen Min seemed to be trying to seduce Wang Yuze, and she even hid a few charming glances at Wang Yuze during the meal, which made Wang Yuze feel like a cat was scratching her.
