Chapter 277 Aiding Korea and Fighting the Japanese (14) is not as important as you
"Kafi Princess." Gao Pragmatic suddenly turned around and said, "If I ask you to go to Edo, do you dare?"
Narita Kai was obviously unprepared for his question. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted and said: "It's just Edo, why don't I dare? Even Kyoto and Osaka, I dare to go."
At this point, she paused for a moment and said with a puzzled expression: "But, what are you going to do in Edo? If you are talking about marriage with the Tokugawa family, it seems that I should not be the one to take part in this matter."
That's true. She herself is a concubine, but now she has to go all the way back to Japan to help her husband negotiate a marriage. What kind of thing is that? It's extremely awkward no matter how you look at it, and it's even more inconsistent with etiquette.
Gao Pragmatic said: "You are not only going to Edo. In fact, before going to Edo, you have to go to Yusheng Castle with great fanfare. Of course, on the surface, you are just returning to your hometown to visit relatives, but in fact, you are going to go to Edo with a big fanfare.
Tokugawa Ieyasu reached some cooperation intentions..."
"Intention to cooperate?" Liu Xin is lucky to have her as a Chinese teacher now. Words like "intention to cooperate" with a strong later style are not unfamiliar to her, but precisely because this word is quite ambiguous like Japanese, she suddenly
I think Gao Wu is telling the truth.
Fortunately, there are no outsiders here, and Gao is pragmatic and is not afraid to speak clearly. He immediately smiled and said: "Yes, what I said is exactly the intention of cooperation... intention."
The word "intention" was once again made clear and strengthened. Narita Kai couldn't see it yet. He was stunned for a while, and then thought about it and said: "The master's intention is to make it seem that I have agreed on something, but it cannot be made clear."
Once it’s finalized, it won’t even be possible to form paper evidence, right?”
Gao Pingshi laughed, then turned to Liu Xin and said, "Secretary-General teaches well."
But Liu Xin waved her hands repeatedly and said, "No, it's just the Third Lady Bingxue who is smart. I don't have any credit for it. If the Marquis wants to praise the Third Lady, he should praise himself."
Gao Pragmatic then said to Kafei: "You are probably right. What I want you to do is to delay and delay the hostile military action that the Tokugawa family may launch against Tamana and Misaki."
Kaiji didn't look particularly happy, but was a little puzzled and said: "Do you want to send troops for reinforcements? However, Tokugawa Zuofu may not be able to see this! He is an old fox, and he rarely makes decisions easily.
Especially for big things, he often thinks about them for a long time and calculates everything before making a decision."
"You can rest assured that I have a clear and profound understanding of Tokugawa Ieyasu, and my decisions are also very prudent. There is no place to look down on him." Gao Jingshi slightly restrained his smile and said seriously: "Since you have seen it,
It's quite deep, so I might as well tell you clearly: No matter how sincere you are here, Tokugawa Ieyasu will know that you are there to delay him."
Ji Feiji was shocked: "Really? That concubine..."
"You want to ask, if that's the case, then what else are you going to do?" Gao Pragmatic laughed and said confidently: "Tokugawa Ieyasu can see your intention of going here, but he will definitely be fooled - not because of our scheme.
Gao Shen made him fall into the trap by mistake, but it was because he urgently needed to be 'delayed' at the moment."
Kafihime was so confused that she didn't react for a while, but Liu Xin understood and suddenly said: "Oh, I know what you mean. You mean that Tokugawa Ieyasu himself doesn't actually want to have a war with us, just because of Toyotomi Hideyoshi's
He had to do this if he was forced to do so, so once he had the opportunity and an excuse to do business, he would rather "fall into the trap" and lose face, but also show Toyotomi Hideyoshi as if he had been delayed for time, so that Toyotomi Hideyoshi believed that it was not the case.
Is he feeling betrayal in his heart?"
When she said this, Kaiji also suddenly realized it, and followed the train of thought and analyzed: "Master, if Tokugawa Zuofu is really as the secretary-general analyzed, then if I really go to Edo, he will not only entertain me warmly
, and may even send people to actively advise Toyotomi Taige, so that Taige also believes that the Beiyang Sea Trade Alliance is a purely commercial organization and will not participate in the war between the two countries... I just don’t know if Taige will believe it.
"
Gao Pragmatic smiled and said: "Whether Toyotomi Hideyoshi believes it or not does not depend on whether Tokugawa Ieyasu's rhetoric is fanciful or full of loopholes, but only on whether I need to make him believe it."
Ji Feiji said in surprise: "Is there any reason why I don't need him to believe me?"
Gao pragmatically spread his hands and said, "How about you analyze it?"
Kaiji immediately realized that this was a test from her master, and it was very likely that whether she could successfully pass the test would determine whether she would have the opportunity to go on a "mission".
To be fair, Ji Feiji is not really interested in "going on an envoy", but Gao Pragmatic's initial guess is more accurate: she does have the intention to command the defense of Yusheng City. However, she does know that with her status, she does not
She is suitable to do this, so her previous answer to Gao Pragmatic was not insincere, and may even be a little too true.
However, although she was much more interested in commanding operations than going on an envoy, she clearly realized that she could not give up this great opportunity.
As she stayed in the Gaofu for a longer period of time, some characteristics of the Gaofu that were different from other large families became more and more obvious. One of the biggest characteristics was Gao's pragmatic attitude towards the women in the mansion.
Unlike other family heads who would like to lock their women in their rooms without stepping out, Gao Pingshi places no restrictions on his wife Huang Zhiting. Not only does he let her lead the troops in the war, but he also lets her sit in charge on his behalf.
The countries in southern Xinjiang with a radius of thousands of miles.
Even though Ji Feiji had heard about the power of the Ministry of Internal Affairs many times, and maybe Huang Zhiting's every move was observed and recorded by people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, she still felt very shocked that Gao Pragmatic could give his wife such great freedom and power.
.
After all, even in Japan, where female governors are allowed to exist, it is rare to hear that in a family where the male governor is the master, the wife actually holds such huge real power. And the performance of another woman in the Gaofu further highlights Gao's pragmatism.
Attitude: This woman is naturally Liu Xin.
As the Secretary-General of the Jinghua Secretariat, Liu Xin can be said to be the most pragmatic and formal chief of staff. There is no need to explain how important the responsibilities and powers of the chief of staff are, just like the relationship between the top leader and the office director in the modern Red Dynasty government agencies.
It must be intimate. The director's daily attitude must also represent the attitude of the leader to a large extent. It may be a bit excessive to say that he is the shadow of the leader, but it is probably not much different.
Gao Pragmatic can hand over such an important position to a woman, which shows how unique his master's employment style is. At the same time, what is even more special is Liu Xin's usual style, especially when she faces Gao Pragmatic
of style.
Unlike Mongoose, who is somewhat ignorant of worldly affairs, Kaihime, as an outstanding warrior of the Narita family, knows many things. Among them, there are not only things such as understanding and coordinating family relationships (under the daimyo political structure), combat command, swordsmanship, etc.
Serious talents such as horsemanship and horsemanship, and even how to serve your husband in the future.
Because of this, she was able to see some things during the time she entered the Gaofu. For example, Liu Xin's high status in the Gaofu was not just because she had an elder brother who was deeply trusted by Gao Pragmatic, but it was also not because
What kind of personal relationship does she have with Gao Pragmatic? She thinks that she has such a status mainly because of her personal ability - time travel and rebirth. Of course she cannot know.
In this way, Ji Feiji will naturally think that if she wants to improve her status in the eyes of the master, the most important thing is probably not to be a husband and raise children, but to show her talents and give full play to her talents so that she can do more important things.
Help him.
Kaiji thinks that her most obvious talent is fighting, so her thinking always revolves around commanding wars. Unfortunately, Gao Pragmatic seems to think that the current situation in Kanto is not dangerous, and she can calmly plan her plans and take advantage of them as she sees fit.
, the result was that she was given a political mission instead of a military mission.
Even judging from what he just said, as long as he is willing to accept this political task, it is almost a task that is bound to succeed and does not pose too many challenges.
Kaiji has a sense of crisis and thinks that this may be a sign that the master does not trust her ability enough. But she also knows clearly that refusing the task under such circumstances is absolutely impossible and will only lead to disgust and disappointment.
, then it’s all over.
The only correct thing to do at this time is to accept the task without hesitation, and to do everything possible to not only complete the task itself properly, but also to create unexpected surprises and achieve certain effects that even the master did not expect.
Right now, if you want to take on this task, you must first answer the test questions that the master asked at this time.
Because it was of great importance to her, Kaiji did not dare to answer easily. Instead, she thought about it carefully, then opened her lips and spoke eloquently: "I dare to guess that the master should be interested in Toyotomi Taikaku's wisdom."
I have some understanding and know that he is not that easy to be fooled. Therefore, even if Tokugawa Zuofu uses the excuse of being deceived by the Maritime Trade Alliance in the future and fails to capture the jade rope in time, Misaki and the Second Castle, Toyotomi Taikaku may not really believe it.
.
In other words, no matter how good Tokugawa Zuofu's excuses are, and no matter how convincing he is of being deceived, Toyotomi Taikoo will not believe him, but I have a way to make him believe that these things are true."
"How can I make him believe in Tokugawa Ieyasu?" Gao pragmatically interjected and asked.
"Of course I cooperated with Zuofu to act for him." Kaiji looked at Gao pragmatically with her beautiful eyes: "Although I don't know how many secret chess the Sea Trade Alliance has set up in Kanto, and even in Japan as a whole, it must be enough.
I will use it to sing a good show for Taige."
Gao Jingshi nodded slightly and said: "With the little information you have, it's understandable that you can't guess the specific arrangements. However, there is no rush on these matters. I can tell you slowly later. You can continue to analyze first."
"Yes, sir." Although Kahihime was born as a Samurai Hime, she indeed has the traditional docility of Japanese women. She immediately changed the subject in accordance with the high and pragmatic requirements and said: "Although I have such ability, I don't necessarily need to be like this.
Do it, because I don’t want Toyotomi Taikaku to be persuaded by Tokugawa Zuofu to maintain peaceful relations with the Maritime Trade Alliance."
"Isn't it good to maintain peaceful relations?" Gao Pragmatic interrupted again and asked with a chuckle: "Peaceful relations can ensure that the sea trade alliance continues to maintain trade with Japan, and then benefit from such trade in the long term."
"If the master is just the person involved in the Sea Trade Alliance, then this conclusion may be correct, but the master's identity is more than that." A gleam flashed in Jia Feiji's beautiful eyes, and she said slowly: "The master is the Nanning Marquis of the Ming Dynasty.
, and is about to become the youngest pavilion elder in the Ming Dynasty, my ideal is not just to earn some gold and silver in Japan."
Gao Pragmatic didn't comment, just smiled and said: "Continue talking."
"Yes, sir." Kafei Ji changed the topic again and said: "Since my primary identity is an important minister of the Ming Dynasty, when the two countries are at war, the thing I need to worry about most is probably making His Majesty the Emperor suspicious——
For example, I doubt in my mind whether your interests in Japan are more important or the victory of Ming Dynasty.
The most direct and simple way for His Majesty the Emperor to dispel such doubts is for the Maritime Trade Alliance to conflict with Toyotomi Taikaku. The more intense the conflict, the better. It is best to go to war directly! This means that the master does not want Toyotomi Taikou to fight.
The fundamental reason why Omitaka was persuaded by Tokugawa Zuofu."
Gao Pragmatic nodded slightly in approval, but then said: "Since I was preparing for war, how do you explain why I sent you to delay Tokugawa Ieyasu?"
"Sir, this issue has been discussed before." Kaiji said: "Sir, what I mean is that although we have to fight, it is best to fight later, and it is best to make Toyotomi Taikoo more suspicious of Tokugawa Zuofu through this incident.
loyalty, or even simply provoke a conflict between the two of them. In this way, the two of them cannot form a joint force, and even if the Maritime Trade Alliance goes to war with Japan, the pressure it will face will be much less."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Gao Pragmatic laughed, turned to Liu Xin and asked: "Secretary-General, what do you think of Ji Feiji's answer?"
"It's not for my staff to evaluate the Third Madam's answer." That's what Liu Xin said, but she continued: "But I also agree with the Third Madam's views."
Gao Pragmatic nodded and turned to Kafei Ji: "Let me summarize it for you: What I want is for the Maritime Trade Alliance and Japan to go to war in name only, but in fact not to start a full-scale war for the time being. At the same time, if we can still
It would be even better to provoke conflicts between Toyotomi and Tokugawa."
Ji Feiji said obediently: "Yes, it is as simple and clear as the master said."
Gao Pragmatic laughed and said: "Okay, this is what you have to do next."
"Yes, sir, I will definitely take care of it." Ji Feiji replied.
Gao pragmatic looked at her and asked, "What do you need?"
Faced with this problem, Kaiji hesitated for a moment and said: "It requires full cooperation from the Kanto side, including some secret chess..."
Gao Pragmatic waved his hand: "The Secretary-General will give you the list later, and all the forces of the Maritime Trade Alliance in Japan will cooperate with your actions."
Ji Fei said gratefully: "Thank you for trusting me, I will do my best."
"Pay attention to safety." Gao Pragmatic nodded and said: "Jia Fei, remember, since you are already a member of my Gao family, although the things in Japan are not small, they are not as important as you together."
