Reborn as a tyrant in the Ming Dynasty

The snow stopped falling.

The sky is still gray.

"Ha ha…"

A hearty laugh broke the calm here. In the main hall where the Ming Dynasty mission was stationed, Liu Hongxun, who was wearing a crimson official robe, had a strong smile on his face, while Jin Liu, who was sitting next to him, was laughing with him.

"It's just some trivial things, not worth mentioning."

Liu Hongxun smiled, waved his hand towards Jin Liu and said: "I am a minister of the Ming Dynasty. When I went to the DPRK, I followed the emperor's order to express the attitude of the Ming Dynasty. I also wanted to show the determination of the Ming Dynasty. I have done everything I need to do when I go to the DPRK, so no matter how difficult the journey back is, I will return to the DPRK and resume my duties.”

After hearing this, Jin Liu hurriedly followed what Liu Hongxun said: "Mr. Liu Ge is right, but the situation in Liaodong was so dangerous at that time, but Mr. Liu Ge was not afraid of the rampant rebels, whether it was his courage or magnanimity. , they are all role models for our generation!”

"When Xiaguan heard about this, he admired Mr. Liu Ge. Today, under the orders of our king, Xiaguan came to pay homage to Mr. Liu. To be honest, Xiaguan is very excited."

Liu Hongxun kept smiling and listened to what Jin Liu said, but he was filled with anger in his heart!

This Jin Liu came to see him at the mission hall specifically under the order of the King of Korea. Liu Hongxun knew Jin Liu's purpose very well.

What Jin Liu is talking about is when Liu Hongxun first came to North Korea as an envoy. At that time, the King of North Korea was not Li Ju, but the controversial Li Hui!

Although this process was not pleasant, the goal was basically achieved, and the national prestige of the Ming Dynasty was not insulted. However, when Liu Hongxun was about to leave North Korea and embark on the journey back to the Ming Dynasty, a big problem occurred in Liaodong!

Those North Korean ministers and Qingliu who were good friends with Liu Hongxun all persuaded Liu Hongxun to stay in North Korea for a longer period of time and wait until the Liao Bureau became clear before returning to the Ming Dynasty. However, Liu Hongxun sternly refused.

Jin Liu specifically mentioned this matter when he came to the mission hall. His original intention was to praise Liu Hongxun for his courage and magnanimity, and then to draw closer to each other, but Jin Liu made a mistake.

Liu Hongxun loves fame, but he is not like some rotten scholars in the Ming Dynasty. He simply loves fame and wants to make his name famous in history. Deep in Liu Hongxun's heart, he cares more about the Ming Dynasty, especially the national prestige of the Ming Dynasty. ! !

Every time he thought of Liaodong being ravaged by the Jianchu captives, Liu Hongxun felt a surge of anger deep in his heart. Otherwise, he would not have come all the way to North Korea.

What's more, his visit to the DPRK this time represented the Ming Dynasty's canonization of Li Jie. In Liu Hongxun's eyes, even if Li Jie tried to break the law, it was still treason! !

If the Ming Dynasty recognized Li Zhu, in a sense, it would be denying itself, and it would be a regression to the patriarchal etiquette system.

It was something that Zhu Youxiao, the emperor of the Ming Dynasty, said that made Liu Hongxun understand that doing so could promote changes in the Liao Dynasty and solve the practical difficulties faced by the court. This allowed Liu Hongxun to temporarily put aside his persistence and choose to go on an envoy mission. Journey to North Korea!

Ok.

Deep in Liu Hongxun's heart, this mission to North Korea was a journey. If he could not achieve what the emperor planned, he would not leave North Korea! !

Now that you have made a choice, you must do it well.

This is Liu Hongxun.

"How is the King of Joseon's health? Is he feeling better?"

Thinking of this, Liu Hongxun kept a smile on his face and did not continue chatting about Jin Liu. Instead, he asked about Li Zhu's condition with concern.

Although Liu Hongxun knew that King Li Zhu of North Korea was not sick at all, and the reason why he was like this was just to hide from him, but there were some things that he just had to understand in his heart, and there was no need to hold on to him.

"So that the envoy will know that my king's condition is getting better."

Seeing Liu Hongxun asking about this matter, Jin Liu suppressed his smile and bowed to Liu Hongxun: "I can get out of bed now, but the imperial doctor in the palace said that it may take some time to fully recover, but I, the king, think about it." It was a matter of going to court, so I specially sent my subordinates to pay homage to the envoy."

"Body matters."

Liu Hongxun lifted up his robe sleeves and said: "This time I came to North Korea on the order of our Majesty, just to clarify some things with North Korea, which involves the matter of canonization. However, the King of North Korea has not fully recovered yet, so I can wait.”

Ok?

Jin Liu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this. He didn't expect that when he came to visit this time, he would actually hear important news.

Canonization, this is what Li Zhu dreamed of.

As long as they can be canonized by the Ming Dynasty, some of the troubles and problems they faced before can be solved with the canonization of the Ming Dynasty and the development of North Korea.

Anyone who dares to hold on to this matter from now on will be able to take advantage of Li Ju's righteousness to do whatever he wants. Even if Li Hui, who was imprisoned in Ganghwa Island, escapes, Li Ju will definitely not be afraid anymore.

"Is what the envoy said true?"

Jin Liu, who became more and more excited as he thought about it, couldn't help but look at Liu Hongxun to confirm.

This matter was too important. It was related to the foundation of his family as king. Jin Liu did not dare to be careless in the slightest.

After all, before this, Liu Hongxun had not said anything about this. He only wanted North Korea to support the Ming Dynasty in countering the rebellion, to exchange information with the Ming Dynasty, and to temporarily hand over Jeju Island to the Ming Dynasty to counter the rebellion.

If Liu Hongxun could talk about the canonization together when discussing the above matters, then why would Li Zhu pretend to be ill and not see Liu Hongxun?

If he was asked to give up many benefits without getting any benefits at all, Li Zhu would definitely not agree, and he would even be very dissatisfied in his heart.

But with the matter of canonization, everything is not non-negotiable.

"Does Bensuke dare to joke about such an important matter?"

Facing Jin Liu's gaze, Liu Hongxun suppressed his smile and said solemnly with a serious expression.

This made Jin Liu a little nervous.

Through what Liu Hongxun said, it is not difficult for Jin Liu to see Liu Hongxun's dissatisfaction. Everyone knows why Liu Hongxun is dissatisfied.

The reason why Liu Hongxun didn't break out was because he wanted to save face for both of them.

It was precisely because of the thought of this that Jin Liu broke out in cold sweat. This was completely different from what he had thought before coming, so that the rhetoric he had prepared was no longer needed at the moment.

"Let's not talk about this anymore."

Liu Hongxun noticed Jin Liu's embarrassment, reached out to pick up the tea cup next to him, took a sip and said: "Since the King of Joseon's health has improved a lot, I don't mind waiting a few more days."

Liu Hongxun actually hated this kind of back-and-forth conversation, but it was just like this between the two countries. Even if North Korea was a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, brothers would still settle accounts, let alone between countries, so Liu Hongxun had He had a lot of patience to fight with Li Zhu and the others.
