Chapter 580: Nothing else, just not short of money

Wang Qian really didn't need to take silver from those below, because he was making money himself now. Just the tickets for the Suiyuan post road made Wang Qian's assets multiply several times. Now Young Master Wang earned more than old Wang. For a few thousand taels of silver, it wasn't worth it.

Zhu Zhu Yijun's meaning was very clear. Even if he really took it, not letting this Li Ducai enter the capital alive would be it. But the imperial favor of Wang Qian and Wang Wang Chonggu would disappear, and even at an appropriate time, a reason would be found to make Wang Wang Chonggu and his son retire. Wang Wang Chonggu was targeted by the censors every day, so finding a reason was simple.

If Wang Wang Chonggu and Wang Qian really took it, not letting Li Ducai enter the capital was for the stability of the imperial court. The reason why they were allowed to leave afterwards was because this silver should not have been taken. Zhu Zhu Yijun gave so much, just not wanting them to solicit bribes from below; it was silver that should not have been taken.

The court officials knew Zhu Zhu Yijun's way of doing things very well: once, twice, but not a third time. Zhu Zhu Yijun had already given two chances: one was directly not letting Li Ducai enter the capital, and the other was reminding Wang Wang Chonggu that his family members also had the possibility of making such mistakes.

Once Li Ducai enters the capital, he has to go to court. Going to court means getting on the scale. Some things, once on the scale, a thousand catties cannot stop it.

But Wang Wang Chonggu made a guarantee in front of the Emperor that he could get on the scale, open his stomach and let His Majesty see how many bowls of powder he had eaten.

Li Ducai arrived in the capital smoothly on the seventh day of the first lunar month of the twelfth year of Emperor Wanli. Originally, Li Li Yougong was prepared to do dirty work. This was also the reason why Ling Governor Ling Yunyi was a bit dissatisfied. Once it involved high-ranking officials in the court, they would die inexplicably during the process of entering the capital, and could not be punished according to the law. This was too cheap for Li Ducai.

But Li Ducai entered the capital, so Ling Governor Ling Yunyi's last bit of dissatisfaction disappeared and he became even more satisfied, because no matter what the investigation results were, Li Ducai had to enter the Dissection Institute!

The Dissection Institute, the Yama Palace in the human world, and the Ming Emperor was a living Yama.

The benevolent Son of Heaven was His Majesty, and the living Yama was also His Majesty. This was very contradictory, but the benevolent Son of Heaven was for the people of the Ming Dynasty, and the living Yama was for the lawless. This was very reasonable.

Li Ducai entered the capital smoothly, and all eyes in the capital were focused on Li Ducai. This was the public, under the eyes of everyone.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, that Wang Qian pulled two silver carts to outside Guangningmen. At the city gate, waiting for Li Ducai, it has already been surrounded by three layers inside and three layers outside!" A young eunuch ran in hurriedly, telling His Majesty that there was excitement to watch!

"Quick, prepare the carriage for Guangningmen, tell me in detail what the situation is!" As soon as Zhu Zhu Yijun heard there was excitement to watch, he finished approving the memorials and prepared to go watch the excitement, and asked for the details.

Wang Qian was dissatisfied with Li Ducai's biting, and he had not been having a good time these days, so he pulled two silver carts, prepared a total of 34,000 taels of silver, and prepared to smash Li Ducai. Biting him, Wang Qian, was fine, but who was he looking down on? A hundred taels of silver, and he wanted to make him, Wang Qian, an umbrella?

Didn't these vermin embezzle 34,000 taels? Just scatter so much silver and let Li Ducai take a good look!

"Wang Qian's behavior looks quite stupid. After all, the white silver was thrown out like this, but in fact, he thought about it carefully. This is moving a tree to establish trust. Such an absurd act actually lets the whole world know that their Wang family is not short of money. Don't bite their Wang family for this little silver." On the way to Guangningmen, Zhu Zhu Yijun seriously analyzed Wang Qian's motivation.

Playboy? Zhu Zhu Yijun didn't think so. Wang Qian was able to pass the Ming Jinshi examination after all, his brain was very bright.

"Your Majesty, is it possible that Young Master Wang is just venting his anger? He didn't think about so much at all?" Feng Bao tentatively said: "In my opinion, looking at Wang Qian's usual behavior, he didn't think about so much at all. He was just angry, so he did this."

Feng Bao believed that Wang Qian would not think about things like moving a tree to establish trust at all. He was just venting his anger. As the second richest young master in the capital, being humiliated like this, and Wang Qian was not the low-key sons of Zhang Zhang Juzheng's family, nor was he the kind of deep-thinking character.

"You are right, he probably didn't think about so much..." Zhu Zhu Yijun thought about it. He probably thought too much. This Wang Qian probably didn't think about the influence at all. This behavior was purely to vent his anger.

Zhu Zhu Yijun arrived at Guangningmen. It was really three layers inside and three layers outside, all people. He wanted to watch the excitement, but he couldn't squeeze in. But Zhao Zhao Mengyou, who was responsible for clearing the street, had already occupied the highest position in the nearby restaurant for His Majesty, and even the telescope was set up.

"Did you pay?" Zhu Zhu Yijun went to the top floor and asked Zhao Zhao Mengyou if he had paid.

"Imperial property." Feng Bao said hurriedly: "The restaurants and inns in front of the gates of the capital are all properties of the Inner Office."

"That's very good." Zhu Zhu Yijun nodded with satisfaction and sat by the window, looking at the street.

Regarding the Ming Emperor's love for watching excitement, Zhang Zhang Juzheng believed that the clearing of streets, occupying roads, and occupying seats by the guards were not disturbances to the people. His Majesty had only this little hobby. If His Majesty was not allowed to watch the excitement, that would be harsh. Zhang Zhang Juzheng's requirement for this was only to protect the Emperor's safety.

Wang Qian brought seven henchmen, all of whom were retainers of their Wang family. Besides these henchmen, there were playboys of the capital, sons of major officials, descendants of military nobles, and children of wealthy families in the West City, all of whom were Wang Qian's fox friends and dog companions, regulars at the Taibai Restaurant.

Wang Qian stood in front of the Guangningmen, and the henchmen moved the silver boxes from the cart one by one.

"He is indeed just venting his anger." Zhu Zhu Yijun saw this scene and said to Feng Bao with a bitter smile: "I thought too much."

Wang Qian's behavior was not for moving a tree to establish trust, not to prevent people in the world from biting their family, but purely to smash people with silver, for the sake of face. Looking at those fox friends and dog companions that Wang Qian didn't usually care much about, one could see it.

When Li Li Yougong rode a tall horse and pulled the prisoner cart out of Guangningmen, seeing the scene in front of him, he felt a little dizzy. He was pulling the defendant into the capital properly. What was Wang Qian doing? It would be more appropriate to do it on the road. What was the situation with setting up this formation in front of Guangningmen?

"Wang Qian! You are so bold! Make way!" Li Li Yougong pressed his hand on the hilt of his sword and said sternly: "Daring to block the imperial mission, does your father know!"

Li Li Yougong thought Wang Qian was here to block the gate and not let Li Ducai enter the capital. Li Li Yougong's first consideration was to complete the imperial mission.

"Great Eunuch Li, I am not blocking the imperial mission. Since this thief Li Ducai says he knows me, I will confront him face to face. I want to see how his hundred taels of silver bribed me!" Wang Qian took a step forward, his face flushed, and shouted loudly.

Li Li Yougong was stunned, and then understood Wang Qian's intention. He looked a little embarrassed.

Zhu Zhu Yijun heard Wang Qian's roar from afar. That soaring resentment was simply too strong. One could say he was incompetent, relied on his family to eat, and was so majestic because of his father, but one could not say he was poor. He was quite capable of making money himself.

Zhu Zhu Yijun sent a young eunuch to tell Li Li Yougong what the situation was.

Li Li Yougong then knew that His Majesty had also come to watch the excitement. He immediately turned over and dismounted, whispered a few words to the young eunuch, and then cleared his throat and said: "Since Young Master Wang wants to prove his innocence, please feel free. But let's say it first, I want the person alive, and he has to be sent to the Northern Town Fusi Southern Yamen for trial."

"Good!" Wang Qian shouted sternly: "Li Ducai! Which one is Li Ducai! Get out here!"

There were more than a dozen prisoner carts, all of whom were defendants involved in the Junior Grand Secretary Wang bribery case. Wang Qian didn't know Li Ducai at all, so he could only shout like this.

A prisoner cart was pulled up. Wang Qian greeted a group of playboys to come forward. A henchman took two steps forward, grabbed Li Ducai by the collar, and pulled him to the edge of the prisoner cart, his face almost embedded in the pillar of the prisoner cart.

"Open your dog eyes and take a good look. Among these young masters, which one is Young Master Wang?" The henchman grinned and asked.

There was excitement to watch at Guangningmen, and it was full of people three layers inside and three layers outside. These young masters in front of the prisoner cart were all dressed the same, in silk and satin, wearing green and purple, and each holding a rosewood folding fan in their hands, looking very stylish. Each of them was either rich or noble.

Li Ducai distinguished for a long time and finally confirmed that he had been deceived, because the Wang Qian he knew was not among them.

"I don't know." Li Ducai said in a daze. In fact, when Ling Governor Ling Yunyi said that he couldn't see Wang Qian even with silver, he already knew that he had been cheated 80% of the time.

Wang Qian took three steps forward, pointed at himself and said: "I am Wang Qian. If you become a ghost and want to take revenge on me, recognize my face clearly, don't find the wrong door."

"Open!"

Wang Qian waved his hand, and several henchmen opened the silver boxes. Inside were rows of imperial silver coins wrapped in red silk cloth, not silver taels. Imperial silver coins had stronger circulation than silver, which meant they were more valuable. Dozens of silver boxes were opened, and the white silver coins shone brightly in the sun.

"Whoa!" Zhu Zhu Yijun took his eyes off the telescope, pointed below and said: "Young Master Wang is generous!"

34,000 taels of silver, a total of 2,125 catties of silver, was placed in front of everyone.

"You said I raised a concubine named Zhao. My wife almost scratched me to death when she went home that day!" Wang Qian grabbed a handful of silver coins and threw them out fiercely!

"You said I corresponded with you and asked for 140 taels of silver from you for the New Year! You made me a laughing stock!" Wang Qian grabbed another handful of silver coins and threw them out, shouting angrily while throwing.

Wang Qian was laughed at. Everyone has a circle. When people in Wang Qian's circle used this as a topic of conversation, Wang Qian was laughed at. The inquiries from elders like uncles and aunts, and fox friends and dog companions were one thing, especially Zhang Zhang Juzheng's eldest son, the Five Classics Doctor Zhang Zhang Siwen, who asked about this matter inadvertently when paying New Year visits.

Wang Qian wished he could crawl into a crack in the ground!

Wang Qian actually envied the friendship between Jiao Hong and Zhang Zhang Siwen. They had once fought for their research topics, but they were still good friends. Exploring the boundaries of human cognition is a very romantic thing. Wang Qian had also studied mathematics, but in the end, he could not enter the Academy of Things.

Zhang Zhang Siwen's inquiry directly caused Wang Qian to break his defense completely.

"I let you speak, I let you slander me! Do you know how I spent these few days! Do you know! Didn't you embezzle 34,000 taels of silver? Today I will smash it all to you!"

"Smash it for me!"

Wang Qian waved his hand, and the henchmen and fox friends and dog companions all took silver from the silver boxes and threw them at Li Ducai. The scene immediately became lively.

Bai Yin coins worth one tael each really couldn't kill anyone, but there were so many silver coins. 34,000 taels of silver directly drowned Li Ducai. He couldn't die, but it was painful.

"Your Majesty, received news, Junior Grand Secretary Wang is taking the carriage on the post road and returning to the capital from the West Mountain Coal Bureau quickly!" A young eunuch ran up to the building hurriedly and told His Majesty the new situation.

"Ah? Junior Grand Secretary Wang also knows? Good, good, good, investigate again and report again, hahaha!" Zhu Zhu Yijun said happily. All the resentment after the New Year's work was gone. In this New Year's excitement, there was also the drama of Wang Wang Chonggu teaching his son, which Zhu Zhu Yijun never expected.

Soon, Wang Wang Chonggu's carriage appeared outside Guangningmen. At this time, the 34,000 taels of silver had not been smashed yet, and Wang Wang Chonggu jumped off the carriage.

"Rebellious son, what are you making a fuss about!" Wang Wang Chonggu said extremely angrily: "Are you crazy!"

"Dad, he humiliated me!" Wang Qian didn't run this time, stood stubbornly in place, pointed at Li Ducai and said very aggrievedly.

Wang Wang Chonggu looked at the silver coins scattered all over the ground and sighed: "Forget it, you smash it."

These days, Wang Qian was indeed very aggrieved. Wang Wang Chonggu only had this one son. Wang Qian becoming like this had a lot to do with Wang Wang Chonggu's doting and indulgence. Wang Wang Chonggu was an old fox who was deep in calculation. He immediately saw that behind his son's absurd behavior, he could draw a line. In the future, with such a small amount of silver, there would be no need to bite their family.

Their family was really very rich, so it wasn't worth it.

"The old fox is still more shrewd!" Zhu Zhu Yijun felt a little pity that he didn't see the scene of Wang Wang Chonggu teaching his son with a Seven-Star Ring-Headed Sword. Wang Wang Chonggu thought more than Wang Qian. The original intention of this indulgence was to prove his innocence. Nothing else, just not short of money.

Soon, Wang Wang Xiyuan, the Vice Prefect of Shuntian Prefecture, brought Southern Yamen runners to the scene to maintain order and separate the crowd.

Wang Qian scattered the silver, and it was all over the ground. The Southern Yamen runners of Shuntian Prefecture still had to clean it up.

"Everyone on the scene, divide it equally." Wang Wang Chonggu waved his hand, kicked Wang Qian, pushed Wang Qian onto the carriage, and left with his people.

Wang Wang Xiyuan looked at the mess on the ground, sighed, let the Southern Yamen runners separate them. There were thousands of people on the scene. Wang Wang Xiyuan distributed the silver coins according to the number of people, and the scene was in chaos.

"Forget it, I won't go to collect it." When Zhu Zhu Yijun left, he said to Feng Bao: "Li Li Yougong is a person on the scene, he also has to collect a share."

If Wang Wang Chonggu didn't say to divide it equally, these 34,000 taels would all belong to Li Li Yougong. But Wang Wang Chonggu said to divide it equally, so it could only be divided equally. Zhu Zhu Yijun watched from afar, so naturally he couldn't take it, but Li Li Yougong could.

"I obey the decree." Feng Bao said with a smile.

The Northern Town Fusi Southern Yamen took over the defendant. After understanding this situation, the Northern Town Fusi Southern Yamen began to investigate on the second day of the first lunar month. After careful investigation, they arrested three Wang Qians and four Wang Chongyis, all of whom were brokers who used the name of Wang Wang Chonggu's family to swindle everywhere.

Things became very clear here. Li Ducai's bribery was not sent to Wang Qian's hands.

Li Ducai was sent into the Dissection Institute. The Dissection Institute was not as terrifying as outsiders thought. It was always kept clean, and not every experiment required consumables. The Dissection Institute raised many white mice and monkeys. Many times, complete experiments were done on animals before experimenting on humans.

Specimens were extremely precious consumables. Living specimens were more valuable to the Dissection Institute. The Dissection Institute also saved as much as possible. Of course, for those who were locked into the Dissection Institute, it was better to be cut with a knife. Because in the Dissection Institute, one never knew when death would come. The time waiting for death was the most difficult to endure. Suicide was not allowed, because suicide would be made into a specimen.

Zhu Zhu Yijun specifically issued a decree to Henan, telling Ling Governor Ling Yunyi that Li Ducai had been sent to the Dissection Institute.

The case of Ling Governor Ling Yunyi killing 238 people in Henan, which shocked the Ming Dynasty, came to an end, and another major case was in full swing, which was the Jiangnan Mill Case, the seventeen prominent families.

Luo Inspector Luo Bingliang Bingliang, the Southern Southern Yamen's Embroidered Uniform Guard Commander, was in charge of this case and had already begun to raid the homes of the seventeen prominent families.

During the investigation, Luo Inspector Luo Bingliang Bingliang discovered a very terrifying thing. These seventeen prominent families, their driving up of grain prices, might not be the main crime, driving up grain prices had to stand aside, but colluding with Japanese pirates.

When Luo Inspector Luo Bingliang Bingliang raided the homes, he found that the silver of these prominent families was all Japanese silver, which aroused Luo Inspector Luo Bingliang Bingliang's suspicion.

Among the methods of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, there was a method specifically for auditing the silver road, investigating the case by judging the flow and origin of silver. Luo Inspector Luo Bingliang Bingliang was a master of this, leading several thousand-household officers to pursue this direction, and finally discovered the ironclad evidence of their collusion with Japanese pirates.

"The Embroidered Uniform Guard will find out that they colluded with Japanese pirates. Did you expect this, sir?" Zhu Zhu Yijun looked at Luo Inspector Luo Bingliang Bingliang's report and then at Zhang Zhang Juzheng, who was drinking tea in the Imperial Study, and asked suspiciously.

When the Mill Case came out, Zhang Zhang Juzheng advocated killing, and the opinions of Wang Wang Chonggu and others were extremely consistent, all were killing.

"They will definitely find out, Your Majesty. In those years, the Japanese pirate chaos in the southeast was very complicated." Zhang Zhang Juzheng nodded. He advocated killing and raiding homes from the beginning because he knew that they would definitely find the words "colluding with Japanese pirates." How many cases in Jiangnan had there been? Going around and around, in the end, they would all go around to the words "colluding with Japanese pirates."

"Therefore, banning the sea is the pain of breaking the palm." Zhang Zhang Juzheng reaffirmed his support for opening the sea. There were too many things he wanted to do. Relying on himself alone, it was completely impossible to do it. Since His Majesty started with sweet potatoes and vigorously opened the sea, the Ming Dynasty had benefited a lot from opening the sea.

He was just the Senior Grand Secretary, even if he had once been regent, he was still the Senior Grand Secretary, not the Emperor. In which direction the Ming Dynasty ship sailed, this history of the Ming Dynasty, in the end, had to be responsible to history by His Majesty himself.

Any glory, shame, rise, and fall were concentrated on His Majesty. When discussing it later, it would also be the decision and influence of the Emperor Wanli Emperor. This was the inevitability of the high concentration of imperial power in the Ming Dynasty. The greater the power, the greater the responsibility.

"The seventeen articles signed between the Ming Dynasty and Japan have already begun to be implemented." Zhang Zhang Juzheng came to Tonghe Palace, not to talk about the Jiangnan Mill Case. Since the Jiangnan Mill Case could be poked in front of the Emperor, the local struggle had basically ended. In fact, it was mainly for the Emperor to be the referee.

This case was reported by the Ministry of Revenue.

And what Zhang Zhang Juzheng wanted to talk about was the "Treaty on Prohibiting Sea Pirates," which was commonly known as the seventeen articles among the people. These seventeen articles, in every aspect, needed the Ming Dynasty to urge the Antu Shogunate to implement them.

"Now it seems that Oda Nobunaga really has no choice. On one hand, the Mori family is pressing step by step with the various daimyo of Japan, and on the other hand, the internal ghosts are coveting his life. He can only rely on the Ming Dynasty, because the Ming Dynasty is the Celestial Empire and has a very good reputation." Zhang Zhang Juzheng said with some annoyance: "It seems that when Oda City entered the Ming Dynasty, we asked for too little."

"Oda Nobunaga is obviously very clear that the Nagasaki Row Capital Division of the Ming Dynasty stationed in Sakai City will not protect him, so he organized a personal guard himself. This personal guard is composed entirely of Ming desperadoes and Korean Hwarang."

Zhang Zhang Juzheng talked about the situation in Japan.

The Ming Dynasty's Nagasaki Row Capital Division in Osaka Bay was nominally protective but would not take action. It all had to rely on Oda Nobunaga himself. Oda Nobunaga no longer trusted the Japanese at all, so he had to resort to external forces. Nominally, he borrowed the name of the Ming Dynasty to realize the transformation from the people of the world to the Antu Shogunate. In reality, Oda Nobunaga's personal guards were responsible for protection by Ming and Korean desperadoes.

"This batch of desperadoes from the Ming Dynasty and Korea, totaling 3,000 people, gave the Mori family a hard lesson when they were formed. These 3,000 people raided the Ishiyama Hongan-ji Temple, killed all the monk soldiers of the Ishiyama Hongan-ji Temple, and left." Zhang Zhang Juzheng talked about the specific role of this surprise force.

These personal guards were not only for protection but also responsible for fighting.

Zhu Zhu Yijun opened the map and finished reading the report. This surprise attack had more symbolic significance than actual significance, because there was no way to occupy it for a long time. They could only kill to vent their anger, and the fire burned the Ishiyama Hongan-ji Temple to the ground. Ishiyama Hongan-ji Temple was not Honno-ji Temple. Ishiyama Hongan-ji Temple was in Ishiyama, Settsu Province, where the headquarters of the Ikko-ikki was located. Headquarters meant the base camp.

The Ikko-ikki was less of a Buddhist temple and more of a Sengoku daimyo. Their grievances with Oda Nobunaga were very long. It was the Ikko-ikki, known as the Buddhist Kingdom on Earth, that defined Oda Nobunaga as the Great Demon King of Owari.

Now that Oda Nobunaga had completely destroyed it, it was also a hard slap in the face of Mori Terumoto.

"In other words, the Ming Dynasty clearly did not have any actual actions, but Oda Nobunaga still used the prestige of the seventeen articles to do many things, got rid of the predicament before his eyes, internally, he didn't need to worry too much about his safety, externally, he won a game, which can be considered as entering a confrontation situation." Zhu Zhu Yijun looked at the map of Japan, his face solemn.

"This Oda Nobunaga is a character, still quite powerful."

Under this intense turmoil, when people's hearts were suspicious, Oda Nobunaga used the surrender to the Ming Dynasty as the basic cohesive force, completed a great victory, and stabilized the situation.

"No, now is the most dangerous time for Oda Nobunaga." Zhang Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said: "Your Majesty, the theory of contradictions talks about the intensification of contradictions. Oda Nobunaga seems to have gotten rid of the crisis, but in fact, now is the precursor to the intensification of contradictions to the point of arms. The darkest moment before dawn."

"Internally, those retainers whom Oda Nobunaga trusted very much before are now excluded from the center of power. Externally, Mori Terumoto ate such a big slap in the face and is definitely dissatisfied. He will definitely contact the retainers under Oda Nobunaga."

"The most dangerous moment has arrived. There will definitely be an extremely intense conflict recently, an intensification of life-and-death contradictions. It will be difficult for him to hide this time."

"Oh? Why does sir think Oda Nobunaga can't hide this time?" Zhu Zhu Yijun asked curiously.

"Your Majesty, guarding against day and night, it is hard to guard against internal thieves. The root of the internal thief is one sentence: don't fear the rise of thoughts, only fear the late realization. Oda Nobunaga only realized that there was an internal thief after his third son died. It was already too late." Zhang Zhang Juzheng finished speaking and looked to the side. Zhu Zhu Yijun followed this gaze and saw a person standing where his gaze reached, Feng Bao.

Feng Bao immediately broke his defense! Talking about things is talking about things, why use him as an example! His eyes widened, he wanted to speak but stopped, and in the end, he didn't say anything.

In the case of Wang Wang Jinglong assassinating the King and killing the driver, Feng Bao was cleaned up severely. It was Feng Bao's dereliction of duty that allowed Wang Wang Jinglong to run to the Qianqing Palace. Feng Bao was really a bit floating at that time, and even because of Empress Dowager Li's trust, he shook his lips and drummed his tongue, magnified Empress Dowager Li's anxiety, and stirred up trouble. This was the internal thief.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng said to the Emperor that for things like internal thieves, don't fear the rise of thoughts. People have many thoughts, and it is normal to move one's heart. But fear the late realization. That is truly late. If the realization is late, these internal thieves are widespread, not individual.

At the beginning, Feng Bao kowtowed in the Qianqing Palace and almost kowtowed himself to death. Such a big lesson, instead, made Feng Bao walk very steadily now.

"Oda Nobunaga will definitely die?" Zhu Zhu Yijun asked tentatively.

Zhang Zhang Juzheng nodded and said: "I think so."

Zhu Zhu Yijun nodded and said: "Sir, how about making a bet? I bet Oda Nobunaga will definitely die."

"I bet... no, Your Majesty, I said Oda Nobunaga will definitely die, Your Majesty took it, do I bet he can live?" Zhang Zhang Juzheng didn't finish his sentence and was directly stunned. This Emperor's bet walked the path of others, leaving himself with nowhere to go?

"Haha." Zhu Zhu Yijun shook his head and said: "Just joking, sir, what does sir think the Ming Dynasty should do?"

"Nothing needs to be done." Zhang Zhang Juzheng said very firmly: "No matter who is in charge of Japan, these seventeen articles must be recognized. If they don't recognize them, beat them until they recognize them."

"Sir's words are reasonable, sir is domineering!" Zhu Zhu Yijun then realized that the Ming Dynasty really didn't need to do anything.

In fact, Oda Nobunaga was also prepared. After sending his sister, whom he felt most sorry for, to the Ming Dynasty, he was ready to fight.

"We must also learn lessons from Japan. At any time, things like betting on national destiny must be avoided as much as possible, because nine out of ten bets are lost, and one jumps into the river. Betting on national destiny will definitely lose. Like gamblers in a gambling house, gamblers will lose everything in the end." Zhang Zhang Juzheng talked about Japan, naturally talking about the situation, and also talking about lessons.

Betting on national destiny, once or twice, it's fine if you lose, you learn a lesson if you lose, but if you win, you will only keep adding stakes, and finally lose all your family wealth. ===== CHAPTER 581 =====
