Chapter 1210: A Distinguished Guest from the Tang Dynasty
It is true that the king of Japan had friendship with Silla and Baekje, and it is also true that he received the gold seal and purple ribbon from the Han Dynasty and Cao Wei.
But in fact, these are just the means used by the Japanese country to rule the four continents of Japan. To put it bluntly...
Silla, Baekje, Han Dynasty, and Tang Dynasty are all just tool men. This can be seen from the way the king of Japan calls himself...
Emperor!
Using these two words, one can imagine the attitude of the Japanese state towards the Han people who canonized it.
Of course, the head of the Japanese kingdom who was first canonized in the Eastern Han Dynasty, and the Queen Himihu who was canonized during the Cao Wei period still had a sense of awe for the Kingdom of China. But as time went on...
In any case, Bhimiya has a general consciousness, but he does not have the ability to live forever.
Even if China's classics and history are so well preserved and so much emphasis is placed on education, there will be a saying that "a gentleman will be killed after five generations." Of course, it is impossible for Himihu to ensure that his children and grandchildren understand the overall situation of the world and the dangerous points in the situation.
As time went on, the concept of "Shenzhou Shangguo"...has long since become just a noun.
How can I have any respect for China?
But now...
The news that the Tang army defeated Silla and Baekje was a blockbuster.
On the first day of the day, the Japanese people were shocked and horrified.
In particular, the news brought by the pirates even included some details of the strategic battle. The Tang State did not specifically attack Silla and Baekje, but swept through another big country adjacent to Silla and Baekje, and then smoothly defeated them.
Silla and Baekje!
As for the size and strength of this other big country, the Japanese people really know it, because they also have contacts with the royal families of Silla and Baekje. According to them, this neighboring big country called Goguryeo, at least
If we can defeat Silla and Baekje together, we can increase that by five times.
...and this statement also takes into account the big talk made by the royal families of Silla and Baekje. Then...based on this possibility, if we guess, the power of that big country is probably ten times that of Silla and Baekje.
times.
Such a powerful country was actually destroyed, and after it was destroyed, it still had the power to wipe out Silla and Baekje. This news was so exciting that it shocked the Japanese country for a hundred years.
And now this situation...
For the Japanese country, it was very dangerous.
The reason why Japan had more contact with Silla and Baekje was that people from the two countries, whether it was the royal family or the military and civilians, felt inexplicably closer to each other.
Secondly, it is also because the distance is really close, and there are many high-quality ports in Silla and Baekje, so ship transportation is relatively simple.
So……
As the emperor of the Japanese country, he couldn't help but think about it.
The Tang State was so powerful that it occupied the coastlines of Silla and Baekje, all ports, and even ships.
So next step...
Doesn’t this mean we will be on the Japanese side?
So how should we explain the title of the emperor...
Although the Japanese kingdom has progressed over time and has long since ignored Higangami, which had little actual exchanges with it, the problem now is that they may come at any time, and it is no longer possible for them to call themselves emperors. They cannot call themselves emperors, so that's fine.
, the problem is a more serious one: if the Tang State has any plans for Japan...
How should Japan respond?
After all, since he claims to be the emperor, of course the one who gets beaten up and beaten up cannot be an Ezo...
Fortunately, the Japanese emperor soon received a report from his retainers - this time it was not gossip about pirates.
The royal families of Silla and Baekje, which had occupied their home country, came to seek refuge!
Of course, the retainers also reported in detail the situation of the Silla royal family and the Baekje royal family. At present, these two people are in very miserable condition.
And after getting this news...
The Japanese emperor's head was so big.
These two groups were wiped out after their own families were wiped out, and yet they came to seek refuge with them. Is this because they were afraid that the Tang Army would not come over to take over?
"What should I do..."
I was originally worried about the title of the emperor - even if I change my name to King of Japan, I am afraid that sooner or later the Tang army will find out that someone here claims to be the emperor, and sooner or later they will have to launch an army to hold them accountable - now Silla and Baekje have appeared.
The royal family came to seek refuge.
Isn’t this an extra sin? Isn’t it because we, the Japanese country, will not die quickly enough?
However, at this moment, a minister noticed that His Majesty the Emperor was worried and stepped forward and said,
"Your Majesty, for the current plan, whether it is the issue of the emperor's title or the relationship between the royal family of Silla and Baekje and us, we need to solve it. If we make any mistake, I'm afraid..."
As he spoke, the minister did not dare to say more. He looked at the emperor carefully and shook his head gently.
The Emperor of Japan couldn't help but get angry when he saw the minister like this. How dare you say, "I don't know?"
If you keep talking like this again, it will help me.
But Qi returned to Qi, and the Emperor of Japan was helpless except for becoming more worried and overwhelmed.
However, it seemed that the minister just now broke the deadlock. A humble and timid minister said, "Your Majesty, how about we... give the royal family of Silla and Baekje to the Tang Dynasty as a gift?"
When the minister said this, the Japanese emperor suddenly showed surprise and looked at the minister with wide eyes.
The minister was immediately frightened when the emperor saw this, and thought he had said something wrong. But...
Afterwards, the Emperor of Japan's eyes changed, but his mind began to move quickly.
"yes……"
"Now that our country, Japan, is guilty of both crimes, it is probably impossible to get rid of these two crimes at the same time and seek forgiveness from the Tang Dynasty. But..."
"If the royal family of Silla and Baekje...yes, selected beautiful women as gifts to the Tang Dynasty, wouldn't this be equivalent to paying off the sin of claiming to be emperor...?"
Thinking of this, the Emperor of Japan's expression froze, and then he burst out laughing, overjoyed!
This idea is simply genius, killing two birds with one stone!
After laughing excitedly, the leader of the Japanese kingdom said to the timid minister just now, "You are right! Come and reward him with gold! Hahahahahaha..."
"That's right...someone is coming!"
When the leader of the Japanese kingdom gave an order, two short and stocky men wearing strange bamboo armor came forward, together with all the civil servants, and saluted, "Your Majesty, I am here!" "I am here!"
"Listen to me and bring me the royal families of Silla and Baekje!"
"hey-hey……"
The leader of the Japanese Kingdom looked excited at this moment, "I want to personally select a gift for Datang! By the way..."
As he spoke, the face of the leader of the Japanese kingdom suddenly darkened, "You guys, please remember not to call me your majesty again in the future. I will only be the king of Japan in the future. You all understand!"
"If there are distinguished guests from the Tang Dynasty, you must insist no matter what, the emperor and the like are just ordinary people shouting for no reason. Do you understand?"
"Your Majesty..."
"Um?"
All the ministers looked horrified and nervous: "Your Majesty! We will understand!"
