I have always resisted the humiliation imposed on me by the Ming people, but given that Kyoto had fallen under the control of the Ming team at that time, and the important officials in the court were all stationed by the Ming people, and even my imperial guards were composed of the Ming people's army, my resistance was meaningless.

Therefore, I chose to endure.

However, my tolerance made the Ming people more and more capable.

A few days after the Ming team entered the city, the Ming people did not come to see me. At that time, I thought that the commander of the Ming army might have been busy with the war with Xiuzhong and neglected me. Until Pingji suddenly came to Zichen Hall and took out a pile of thick documents and said to me: "This is some agreement jointly organized by me, Mr. Hu and Commander of the Imperial Army. Please approve it."

When I saw this agreement, I became angry and accused Pingji: "Why did you sign these with the Ming people behind my back? Do you know the Ertue? Do other ministers in the court know?"

"Please don't talk to me in this tone. These are the things we had discussed with the Imperial Army earlier," said Heiki coldly, "Mr. Nijo knows it."

"Erzhao knows? Why haven't I heard him say it? Even if he knows, you must tell me before signing it!" I said with a strong anger at that time.

"Actually, this is Lord Er Tiao's advice, saying that some people around His Majesty are afraid that they will not understand the overall situation, which will affect the prosperity of China and Japan."

Hei Yoshi's words made me really crazy, and I couldn't help but scold him, "Bastard! Who is the head of the court now? Are you ministers, or the Emperor of I, or the general of the Congyi who fled back to Edo!"

"How dare you? These agreements are really expedient measures. If Your Majesty wants to rely on them, how can you not use conditions? This was originally a fait accompli, and another treaty can be signed in the future, stipulating how many years to recover the rights."

Pingji said it was actually right. The rights that the Ming Dynasty wanted in the agreement were originally something they had already obtained.

The latest agreements are actually concentrated on people's livelihood.

For example, the imperial court would entrust all the roads, harbors, waterways, mines and markets in Kyoto to manage.

Since I rely on the major policy of the Ming team restored, how can I not pay the price?

The reason is simple, but even though I understand it, I cannot help but feel annoyed.

I am annoyed that Pingji and Ertou, two of my confidant officials, were too arbitrary and wanted to trade my country with the Ming people. I also used my excessive blackmail from the Chinese people. I only had a few days to pay back my major policies, but I lost all my financial power, military power, and even the right to appoint officials.

"Please use the seal of your Majesty!"

Pekini's tone and cold face brought me back to reality. I knew that if I didn't use a seal, perhaps the so-called ruling guards outside would rush in and force me to use a seal. Therefore, I compromised.

After using the seal, Pingji took away the treaties. My favorite female official, Jiazi, who gave birth to a son and a daughter, followed him in. I told her about the matter. After hearing this, Jiazi immediately said angrily: "The ministers of the inner court are so inappropriate. They are completing their service for the Ming people, and they are no longer the ministers of Your Majesty!"

"Now the road is ready!"

I said dejectedly, if I had known that things would have been like this, I might as well follow Xiuzhong.

"Maybe it's not the case, so wait for other news."

Jiazi persuaded me that other news naturally pointed out the war between the ** team and Xiuzhong army. It was said that the ** team did not have much force, and perhaps they would fail in the subsequent war. In that case, I might have the opportunity to really stand up and call on the subjects, and the Ming people must also give me the respect I deserve.

Jiazi asked me one thing, that is, why the commander of the Ming people did not march to meet me, and did the Emperor of the Ming people really issue an order to enthrone me as the king of Japan?

I actually do not resist the change of the name of governing. Compared with the Ming Dynasty, Japan is really a small country, and I am very satisfied that I can be the king.

Jiazi was worried that the Ming people's attitude was very strange now, and would they have the idea of ​​abolishing me and establishing a new emperor.

I'm a little scared.

Jiazi gave me an idea, saying that I had to send someone to comfort the Ming team and take this opportunity to give the Ming people a good impression of the commander. In addition, the jewelry in the palace can be taken out to reward the Ming team, so that the Ming people will not have other ideas when they go back and forth.

I deeply agree with it and found Yoshida, my former servant Masaki and others, and asked them to go to the upper level of the Ming** team through their Chinese friends.

Yoshida asked me clearly if it could give Mingguo more benefits.

After hesitating, I agreed.

I think, anyway, those benefits are all in the hands of the Ming people, so what's the point of whether I give them or not?

In this way, Yoshida and Masaki found some Japanese generals from the Akira team, such as Yukiji Yamamoto, Taro Oda, etc.

After proposing that all the mining resources in Japan could be managed by the Ming Kingdom, especially after Ishimi Yinshan presented them alone to the commander of the Ming Kingdom as a gift, these Japanese generals of the Ming team agreed to make suggestions to their commander on my behalf and put forward some of my requests.

The commander of the Ming Dynasty quickly replied, and he promised that he would never abolish my ruling position and to guarantee that I would be enthroned by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, which made me feel relieved.

I still understand the principle of keeping the green mountains and not afraid of burning firewood.

However, the subsequent conditions proposed by the commander of the Ming Dynasty made me deeply worried. He actually asked me to reorganize the Kyoto court and establish the Kyoto government, and call it the New Japan, so as to distinguish it from Tokugawa's old Japan.

The new Japanese country will establish a cabinet, and the officials of the cabinet and various ministries will be nominated by the Ming Dynasty, completely depriving my officials of the appointment and removal power.

Moreover, what is most infuriating is that the Ming people actually wanted to place officials in my palace. The Hu Taijun, who had asked me to sign twenty-one articles, became my "supervisor" which really made me feel desperate.

I can't accept it. What a bastard, what a bastard, the cabinet minister, what a bastard, the minister of supervision, is even worse than the Tokugawa family!

I asked Yoshida and the others to fight for me, and I could not accept all the requests from the Ming people, even if I gave me a little power.

A few days later, Yoshida told me excitedly that good news came from the Ming Dynasty Commander's Base Camp. Some generals in the Ming** team sympathized with me, were dissatisfied with the base camp's attitude towards me, and expressed their willingness to support some of my demands.

Moreover, there are rumors that the commander of the ** team was under pressure from the domestic court, and their court asked the army to return to China immediately.

Ah, if the Ming commander who was very bad to me and was more cunning than Xiuzhong, I would likely have real freedom.
Chapter completed!
