Chapter 819 The Fallen City
In the city of Chikuzen Kunisuya County, groups of heavy infantrymen of the Ming Army were marching in formation, not moving very fast. On the seemingly deserted road, the neat footsteps of the Ming army came and went one after another, making a lot of noise.
The soldiers' uniforms and armors are complete, and such attire is incomparable even in Japan and among the samurai class. The sparse passers-by who couldn't tell the situation suddenly encountered such a group of people, knelt down on the roadside to avoid the way, not daring to come forward to provoke them.
The Ming army did not arrest the samurai officials in the city; so Ouchi Sheng did not make any mistakes and did not go to see Yao Fang without permission.
He stood some distance away from the road, silently watching the Ming army's appearance, thinking about something without saying a word.
Ouchi Katsu did not participate in the great battle that took place in the Hakata area. He and some sa

Before Liu Ming arrived in Kyoto, Muromachi-dono had already received the letter from the Ming army, and the contents of the letter were also known to Muromachi-dono and his subordinates.More than a month passed, but Ashikaga Yoshimochi and others did not respond. It was because they were in a dilemma and had no choice.In June, the Sanjo-bo residence was lush with vegetation. The chirping of cicadas and summer insects seemed to reflect Ashikaga Yoshimochi's state of mind. Even if he closed the door to visitors, he could not find a moment of peace.The sun has already set, but it will be even more lively in the evening. Perhaps only in the second half of the night will there be no disturbance here.Ashikaga Yoshimochi sat on the observation deck in the backyard, gazing at the clouds in the sky, the houses and the plants for a long time, attempting to comprehend a solution from Neo-Confucianism, psychology, or Zen Buddhism, but it seemed all in vain.
Game of the Throne Chapter 821 Peace Treaty
Muromachi finally agreed to the peace proposal. The two sides decided to sign the treaty in Yamashiro Province in the "Kinai" area and hold a ceremony to enthrone the Japanese king.The Ming Empire seemed to have already decided to do this, and they were well prepared. Liu Ming, the Ming envoy, claimed that they only needed to wait a few days and send someone back to Hakata Bay to invite Zhou Quan, the "official envoy to Japan," to hold the ceremony. This was because the gold book and seal of Japan were in the hands of the eunuch Zhou Quan.After some preparations, both sides led their troops to Yamashiro Province, which was located south of Kyoto, and the ceremony took place in front of Ishiki Hachimangu Shrine.Outside the shrine, a camp-like area was formed with silk cloth. There was a platform on the top, and the Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimochi was on the platform. Below, officials from the Ming Dynasty delegation and Japanese civil and military nobles from t
Game of the Throne Chapter 822 The Hidden Truth
Eunuch Zhou Quan and a large group of people have left Yamashiro Province and are at the Yodogawa Pier in Naniwa-kyo.The Muromachi-dono Shogun, Ashikaga Yoshimochi, was assassinated. When the news was being passed to the Kinki countries, someone came to tell the Ming envoys. The situation suddenly became tense. In addition to the eunuchs and civil officials in the delegation, the guards were of a lower rank, so several civil officials and eunuchs discussed countermeasures at the dock.There seemed to be some debate among the delegation members about what to do next.Everyone did not board the ship immediately and leave this dangerous place; the reason was that the person who came to reveal the news was the envoy of Uesugi Zenhide, a retainer of the Kanto Kanrei who had taken the lead in contacting the Ming army last time.But the guarding general didn't care about that. He did not participate in military decision-making and was busy performing his own
Game of the Throne Chapter 823 Autumn Moon
When the news of the signing of the Treaty of Yamashiro and the assassination of Ashikaga Yoshimochi reached Kyushu Island, Ouchi Morimitsu was inevitably sad despite his joy.Ouchi Morimitsu's sadness was due to his sympathy for the assassinated Shogun Ashikaga Yoshimochi. People often judge heroes by their success or failure, but Ouchi Morimitsu believed that Yoshimochi, who was abandoned by all forces, could have governed Japan well.Even a wise man like Ashikaga Yoshimochi, who can see the situation clearly, may not necessarily have a solution.Ouchi Morimitsu recalled that when he went to Kyoto before the war, he met Yoshimune, Yoshimochi's brother. Ouchi Morimitsu felt a little abrupt when he suddenly saw Yoshimune. Only now did he realize that General Yoshimochi seemed to have realized the consequences of today a long time ago. Yoshimochi wanted Yoshimune to be his successor and to get the support of some powerful guardians.General Yoshimochi h

The capital of the Ming Dynasty was still hot in early autumn. People stood by the river, feeling the breeze from the river, and finally felt a little cool.Gao Xianning, the Minister of the Dali Temple, and his men were waiting at the Longjiang Port dock for the boxes from a large ship to be unloaded one after another. They carefully took out six improved six-wheeled hourglasses from the cotton-filled boxes. There were already two hourglasses on the dock.This large ship also departed from Longjiang Port, sailed along the Yangtze River to the Sichuan Provincial Administration, then went north along the Tuojiang River and observed the sun's shadow in Zizhou; then it sailed back to the capital along the original route.When Gao Xianning went forward to observe, he found that the scales of the six hourglasses were all different; compared with the two hourglasses placed in Longjiang Port, none of them were the same.A look of disappointment immediately ap

In late July, Sheng Yong's memorial finally reached the capital. However, there was no surprise news such as "discovery of a large silver mine", but there was some surprise. The Muromachi shogun Ashikaga Yoshimochi was assassinated, and the Ming court was likely to re-ennoble a man named Ashikaga Yoshitsugu as the King of Japan, with additional conditions.In addition to the Japanese, those who later entered Beijing included the Ming official Liu Ming and the official army's guard team.They took a boat from Hakata Bay and came to the capital by sea, so they entered the city from the Outer Jinchuan Gate and headed towards the imperial city in the southeast direction.The bridges south of the Imperial College were bustling with people in the afternoon. People were attracted by the group of people and gathered on the side of the road to watch.Among the crowd was Jinyiwei Northern Pacification Envoy Du Erlang, who was also on his way to the imperial city

A few rays of sunset glow froze on the horizon, seeming to merge into one with the quiet yellow tiles and red walls on the ground.In the Shufei Palace of the West Six Palaces, there was no dust on the brick and stone floor, which must have been swept every day; but there were still many dead leaves on the ground. When Zhu Gaoxu stepped on the dead leaves, he could clearly hear the sound of "crackling".On the road ahead, Du Qianrui finally came to greet him with a group of followers. She reached out to brush her hair, adjusted her makeup, and then knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, I am late to welcome you. Please forgive me.""No thanks." Zhu Gaoxu said casually, reaching out to hold her arm.Du Qianrui stood up straight and said, "I was in the kitchen just now. I didn't know the time well, so I'm in a hurry now."Zhu Gaoxu asked, "You still cook for us yourself?""Your Majesty, aren't you praising my craftsmanship? You are telling the t
