My Pen Pal Zhu Yuanzhang

Chapter 166 Mao Xiang was frightened
After visiting the market town and seeing all kinds of new things, Zhu Yuanzhang took Daoyan to the shipyard.

When Daoyan saw the magnificent steamship appear in front of him, he was completely dumbfounded. He originally thought that Mao Xiang was bragging, but now, he was completely convinced.

Although it took him some time to digest many new things, it also made him more determined in the path he wanted to take.

Such a vibrant Ming Dynasty cannot allow anyone to interfere, especially the Japanese invaders!

Before going on a diplomatic mission to Japan, he had something more important to do, which was to learn Japanese!

After sending Daoyan back to Tianjie Temple, on the way to sending Zhu Yuanzhang back to the palace, Mao Xiang couldn't help but ask:
“Your Majesty, although this monk Daoyan is far more intelligent and courageous than ordinary people, the mission to Japan is of great importance. In my humble opinion, we must find someone who is proficient in the art of diplomacy in order to complete this arduous mission.

Why did Your Majesty only send him to Japan as an envoy? "

Zhu Yuanzhang looked at Mao Xiang and said something that made him break out in a cold sweat.

"It was a strange man who took a fancy to him!"

"Strange man?" Mao Xiang was shocked as if struck by lightning, and suddenly turned pale with fright, and swallowed back all the words in his heart.

If it was the strange man who took a liking to Daoyan, then it meant that the one who wanted to arrest Daoyan and put him in prison was not His Majesty, but the strange man!
The more Mao Xiang thought about it, the more terrified he felt. Could it be that the strange man had already calculated a year ago that the Japanese pirates would plunder Shaoxing Prefecture and that Japan would send envoys to the Ming Dynasty?

This step-by-step planning is even more amazing than that of Liu Ji, and can be called the Guiguzi of the Ming Dynasty!
Your Majesty has the help of extraordinary people, so there is no need to worry about not being able to win every battle. Don’t you see that the northern barbarians who have troubled the Central Plains for thousands of years have now been driven to some corner of the country.

What are those mere Japanese invaders? In front of this strange man, they are just little chickens that can be easily controlled!

We have a great man in the Ming Dynasty, so there is no need to worry that our Ming Dynasty will not last forever.

Suddenly, he thought again, he didn't know how this old man, the strange man, viewed him, a small commander of the Jinyiwei?

If he says a bad word about me in Your Majesty's ear, my God, wouldn't my life be in danger?

The more Mao Xiang thought about it, the more terrified he felt. From now on, he must respect the extraordinary people from the bottom of his heart. By the way, isn't it a trend among the people to worship extraordinary people at home? He should also make a golden statue for the extraordinary people and worship it every day!
As for Daoyan, since the strange man said he could do it, he would do it, no matter how difficult it was!

Zhu Yuanzhang saw that Mao Xiang looked both scared and conflicted and found it very amusing and couldn't help laughing.

Looking at his expression, we know that the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard is having wild thoughts again. But it doesn't matter this way. Let him scare himself. We don't need to explain too much. This is called the way to control subordinates.

Seeing that His Majesty was laughing happily, Mao Xiang also started to laugh foolishly.

After returning to the palace, it was already afternoon, and before he had a chance to rest, another official from the Honglu Temple came to report that envoys from the Northern and Southern Dynasties of Japan were crying in the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites, expressing their special desire to meet the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhu Yuanzhang's good mood was immediately half-killed, and he only replied with one sentence, asking them to wait. As for the reason, let the masters of the Honglu Temple and the Ministry of Rites figure it out themselves.

After sending away the officials from the Honglu Temple, he began to write back to Li Han. "Old Li, I feel a little heavy-hearted when writing this letter to you.

I have watched all the videos you sent me. After watching them, my heart felt like there was an incomparably huge mountain pressing down on it, making it hard to breathe.

When I was communicating with you before, I thought that the invasion of China by Western powers was the darkest moment for China. Unexpectedly, it was just the beginning.

We never expected that the Japanese invaders would be so cruel and shameless to the point of appalling. Their deeds are too numerous to list and count. We wish we could completely destroy them right now, but even if we wipe out these beasts from this world, it would be difficult to dispel the hatred in our hearts!

Therefore, for the future of the Ming Dynasty and for the descendants of China, we must completely break the backbone of Japan, even if it means destroying their country and race!

And not only Japan, but also England and others, we also want to eliminate them in the bud.

Just like us, after watching the video, the obsession in Monk Daoyan's heart was completely broken.

But there is no construction without destruction. At this time, he has set a new goal, just like us. For the sake of future generations of the Ming Dynasty, Japan must be destroyed!
There are so many things we want to do, but they cannot be accomplished overnight.

The strategy proposed at the end of the video is really eye-opening and amazing!
We want to combine it with the future development direction of the Ming Dynasty and develop steadily so that we can be invincible.

Among them, I think the most commendable is the phrase of uniting all forces that can be united. I think that if the entire Ming Dynasty, from top to bottom, can unite as one and work together, the Ming Dynasty will not be afraid of any invading enemy and will always be invincible!

We believe that if we can make Daoyan change his mind and work sincerely for the Ming Dynasty, we will unite Daoyan's strength.

Throughout history, we have witnessed the rise and fall of dynasties. Why is it that at the end of each dynasty, even if it is still strong, it still perishes?

We think that a big part of the reason is that people's morale is broken, like a pile of loose sand. Once the enemy comes, they will be defeated thousands of miles away.

When the new dynasty was first established, it was invincible because of the unity of the people!
The fourteen years of the Anti-Japanese War were truly the darkest time for China. During that difficult period, although countless heroic figures emerged, there were also many despicable traitors.

If there had not been traitors, China's war of resistance would probably not have been so difficult, right?
This leads to another question: why are there so many traitors in China?
For example, Zhonghang Shuo during the reign of Emperor Wen of Han was dissatisfied with being sent to marry the Xiongnu, so he rebelled and became the think tank of the Xiongnu Khan. He made many plans to deal with the Han Dynasty.

It is also like Qin Hui in the Southern Song Dynasty, who murdered the famous general Yue Fei on trumped-up charges, making it impossible for the Southern Song Dynasty to recover the north, making "Man Jiang Hong" the swan song of the Song Dynasty, and making the Jingkang Shame an eternal shame for the Song Dynasty!

In our Ming Dynasty, there are even more scums who collude with the Japanese pirates and act as traitors. Instead of feeling ashamed of it, they take it as an honor.

Their behavior is so bad that it is disgusting!
There are countless such national scums in Chinese history. It is really sad to talk about them in detail. There may be many reasons for them, but why there are so many traitors is something we cannot understand.

I want to unite all the people in the Ming Dynasty, from high officials to ordinary people, to work together for the development of the Ming Dynasty. How can we avoid the emergence of traitors? I hope you can help me, Mr. Li. I will be very grateful!"
