Time Travel: I am the idle king Li Shen and Li Shimin in the Tang Dynasty
Chapter 456 Japanese Complaint
"Oh? There is such a thing?" Li Shimin looked surprised after hearing this, and then asked Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji:
"Your three provinces have received relevant memorials. Why don't I know about this?"
The two looked at each other, and Fang Xuanling stood up first and said:
"Your Majesty, I have not received such a memorial. How dare I hide it from Your Majesty?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have not received any relevant memorials, not even any news."
Changsun Wuji also said.
Then Gao Shilian and other important officials all shook their heads and said they had never received it.
"Messenger from Japan, where did your news come from? Why don't we, the Tang Dynasty, have this news?" Li Shimin looked at Inugami Mita.
"Your Majesty the Emperor, the foreign ministers are absolutely telling the truth. We have already lost many people and things. We, the Japanese Kingdom, sincerely request His Majesty the Emperor to uphold justice.
The navy of the Tang Dynasty was famous all over the world, and it was easy to destroy small bandits. "
Inugami Mita Shu flattered him and said, no matter what, they must have no choice.
And according to their court analysis, this matter is likely to be related to the Tang Dynasty court, and the pirate group is definitely from the Tang Dynasty.
Because their Japanese pirates would not rob Japanese ships.
"Destroying the pirates is indeed not a difficult task for us in the Tang Dynasty, but Ambassador of Japan, you must first find out where these people are.
Since we in the Tang Dynasty have not received the news, let us say that this group of people should not be in the Tang Dynasty. You don't want our navy from the Tang Dynasty to go to your country to help you fight pirates. "
The person who spoke was Yuchi Jingde, and he was also someone who knew what was going on.
"This..." Inugami Mita was speechless for a moment. Indeed, the pirates had been intercepting the country between Japan and Silla. Now that they want to come to the Tang Dynasty, they have to take the southern route.
This route is extremely dangerous, despite the short distance.
"Your Majesty, our Cui family's goods have also been robbed and people are missing." Just when Inugami Santian was thinking about what to say, Yushi Cui Renzhi stood up and said.
"Our Wang family also has them."
"Our Lu family's ship was also robbed."
"Our Zheng family also has them."
After Cui Renzhi said that, everyone in Qiwangli except the Li family stood up and said that they also had robbed goods.
A cold light flashed across Li Shimin's eyes, but there was no change on his face.
As a follower of Li Shimin for so many years, Changsun Wuji saw that Li Shimin was unhappy, so he said as a pioneer:
"Since so many of your families have been robbed, why didn't you report it early so that the navy could go and suppress it? Your family didn't report it. What's the reason? I would like to know what exactly you are transporting. I'm very curious about this. "
Several people were stunned by what Changsun Wuji said, but Cui Renzhi soon said:
"Changsun Pushe, what our Cui family transports is just some porcelain. Although it is not worth much in the Tang Dynasty, it is extremely valuable when transported to Japan."
"Yes, what we transport are porcelain and other specialties of the Tang Dynasty." Several people echoed.
"Then if that's the case, why don't you report it to the official or the court?" Changsun Wuji continued to ask with a smile.
"Well, that's because our porcelain is not very valuable, so we don't bother the court." Cui Renzhi was speechless,
They were transporting grain, but His Majesty ordered the grain to be embargoed to Goguryeo. Even if they said it was shipped to Japan, no one would believe it.
There is no shortage of food in Japan, and it is too far and the cost is too high.
"Haha, Cui Yushi, don't you think what you said is inconsistent? Just now you said it was priceless, and now you say it's worthless.
I now wonder what exactly you are transporting? "
After hearing Cui Renzhi's words, Changsun Wuji laughed twice and made the family members speechless with just one sentence.
In the end Cui Inzhi could only say:
"Changsun Pushe, even if we don't pursue him, this pirate is still domineering and vicious at sea.
As a vassal state of Japan, we, the Tang Dynasty, should help them and show our dignity as the suzerain state. After all, the Japanese country often came to pay tribute. "
"It doesn't matter. As long as you say you are here to pay tribute, no one will rob you."
Yuchi Jingde, the number two hob cutter, interjected:
"Ok?"
The eyes of all the ministers in the main hall moved to Yuchi Jingde, including members of the aristocratic family, Japanese dog Sanda Shu and others.
"What does E Guo Gong mean by this? Does E Guo Gong know the origin of this group of people?" Cui Renzhi caught the subtext of Yuchi Jingde's words.
Yuchi Jingde was stunned, and he said this casually. He did not expect it to be like this. He could clearly feel the sharp gaze of Li Shimin sitting above him.
If you answer poorly, you will most likely be punished.
But the meat on the hob is the meat on the hob, and the answer was so reasonable:
"How can I know the origin of that group of people? What I mean is that they dare not rob our Tang Dynasty's tribute ship, otherwise our Datang navy will wipe them all out."
Yuchi Jingde spoke so righteously and with such indignation that no one knew whether it was true or not.
"Alright, envoy from Japan, since your country is a vassal state of the Tang Dynasty, our country will help you. I will immediately issue an order to search for the whereabouts of this group of pirates.
When spring comes next year, the Tang Dynasty navy will go to the offshore to encircle and suppress all bandits. Ensure the safety of this maritime route. "
Li Shimin was afraid that Yuchi Jingde would say something else, so he quickly interrupted their conversation.
"Thank you, His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty." Inugami Mita Shu thanked him immediately.
However, Li Shimin continued:
"Since your Japanese country is a vassal state of our Tang Dynasty, you should know the rules. Our Tang Dynasty is currently marching eastward to conquer Goguryeo. You should know what can and cannot be carried in Chang'an for so long.
Go back and tell your king that a vassal state will behave like a vassal state. "
The last words Li Shimin said were actually a warning to the Japanese country.
Inugami Mita Shu had been in the Tang Dynasty for so many years, so of course he could understand the meaning, so he quickly expressed his loyalty and said:
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, the Emperor. We, the Japanese nation, will always obey the orders of the Tang Dynasty and will not dare to cross the Lei Chi."
No matter what, the beautiful words must be said first.
"Well, I believe in your sincerity." Li Shimin nodded, but he knew in his heart that everyone was doing it for profit.
Just when Li Shimin was about to go to court, his disciple Lu Chengqing stood up and said:
"Your Majesty, I heard that the imperial court has issued a salt and iron monopoly license to Prince Ji's Mansion. I submitted a memorial the day before yesterday, but Your Majesty did not give any instructions. I wonder if Your Majesty can see it."
Li Shimin's thoughts came true. In the past few days, not only Lu Chengqing was the only one to submit memorials, but also aristocratic families and some nobles.
There were no less than [-] letters, and Li Shimin kept them in the mail, but he knew that this matter would definitely be difficult to deal with.
"Your three provinces have received relevant memorials. Why don't I know about this?"
The two looked at each other, and Fang Xuanling stood up first and said:
"Your Majesty, I have not received such a memorial. How dare I hide it from Your Majesty?"
"Yes, Your Majesty, I have not received any relevant memorials, not even any news."
