    Fuzhou, Fujian.

    Chen Ji, the son of a sea merchant, greeted Lin Wenyuan to disembark at the pier, and asked in a low voice, "Brother Kuidou, how is Nanjing?"

    Lin Wenyuan said excitedly: "It's done, His Majesty really supports Haimao."

    "That's good, that's good!" Chen Ji clenched his fists.

    It is absolutely impossible for Japan's Tokugawa shogunate to fully open its seaports to China.  It is absolutely impossible for the shogunate Tokugawa Iemitsu to contact the Nanjing court on his own initiative.

    Lin Wenyuan, or in other words, the Fujian maritime merchant who pushed Lin Wenyuan to work, is bold and fooling around!

    ? They first reached a consensus with Matsudaira Nobutsuna that Matsudaira Nobutsuna will take care of the Tokugawa shogunate, and Fujian Mariners will go to Nanjing to take care of Zhao Han.

    If the Tokugawa shogunate is compared to the imperial court, then Matsudaira Nobutsuna is similar to the shogunate prime minister.

    Behind Matsudaira Nobutsuna, there are still many pro-shogunate feudal lords, as well as Confucianism and Shintoism forces in Japan.

    The rebellion caused by Amakusa Shiro was not completely subsided until this year!

    Amakusa Shiro was just the beginning. Due to the poor performance of the shogunate army, a large number of local lords who did not believe in Christianity also joined the war against the rule of the shogunate. Almost the lords of Kyushu were fighting for independence.

    Last year, the shogunate mobilized an army of 220,000, and the troops invaded Kyushu in two ways, with the assistance of the Dutch fleet. The main combat target was the rebel forces of the Shimadzu domain.

    By the end of this year, almost all of Kyushu's daimyos had been eliminated.

    After learning from the pain, Tokugawa Iemitsu decided to change his ruling policy and ordered Matsudaira Nobutsuna to take the lead in researching policies with scholars.

    ? Fujian Maritime Merchants learned of Zhao Han's attitude, and immediately sailed to Japan on a sea ship to pass the news to Matsudaira Nobutsuna.

    ? Matsudaira Nobutsuna then met Tokugawa Iemitsu and bowed to present a reform plan.

    Tokugawa Iemitsu did not read and check it himself, but asked: "Tell me about the main ones."

    Matsudaira Nobuta replied: "It is impossible to completely close the country. In the previous battle, the Shimadzu Army had a large number of Western-style artillery, and the firepower was even more fierce than that of the Shogunate Army. Therefore, after collective discussion among the Shogunate ministers, they believed that  Set up a trade zone. Foreign businessmen are not allowed to trade with local daimyo, but they can trade with the shogunate."

    This policy of opening up a large number of ports has been successfully passed in history, but it was rejected after a period of implementation.

    Japan is closed to the outside world, and religious chaos is only one of the reasons.

    ? In the early days of the Tokugawa shogunate's rule, the feudal vassals were encouraged to open ports for trade, the reason being that it could enhance Japan's strength.  Gradually, the shoguns discovered that sea trade had strengthened the power of the vassals, which was not conducive to centralized rule.

    Therefore, a semi-trade port was established in Nagasaki, the territory directly under the shogunate.

    Chinese and Dutch merchants are only allowed to trade with the shogunate, not with vassals everywhere!

    ?In Tokugawa Iemitsu's later years, the country was locked, opened, and locked again, and the policy was changed repeatedly. Everything was based on maintaining the rule of the shogunate.

    Tokugawa Iemitsu was noncommittal and asked, "What else?"

    Matsudaira Nobuta continued: "The reasons for the rebellion between the daimyo and the common people are very complicated. Ministers and scholars believe that they should be educated. You can learn from China's experience and set up schools locally. The shogunate should provide money for the schools so that  The samurai received education from an early age, knew the truth of loyalty to the emperor, and knew the truth of supporting the shogunate. In addition to using Confucianism to deal with Western religions, they also need to use Japanese Shinto to deal with Western religions. Some schools can be merged with shrines, and Confucianism and Shinto can be integrated. Destroyed by red hair  Buddhist temples, the original population of the temple, marriage registration, these rights and responsibilities can be transferred to the shrine."

    Tokugawa Iemitsu finally cheered up: "This method is very good."

    This is how Bushido thought was formed!

    Matsudaira Nobuzuna also said: "The entire Kyushu no longer has daimyo. In the future, Kyushu will be directly under the jurisdiction of the shogunate, and the shogunate will select officials to serve in Kyushu."

    Tokugawa Iemitsu became more and more satisfied: "You are all pillars of the country and can formulate very good national policies."

    Matsudaira Nobuzuna continued: "China's Ming court has been wiped out by the rebels"

    "What? Did the mighty Ming come to an end? Who is the new emperor of China?" Tokugawa Iemitsu was shocked. This was the first time he had heard of it.

    Matsudaira Nobuzuna replied: "In the new China, there are three emperors. One is the Datong Emperor Zhao Han, the second is the Dashun Emperor Li Zicheng, and the third is the Qing Emperor Fulin. In fact, there are two more, both of whom are the Ming clan who fled.  One has been destroyed, and the other is in Yunnan."

    Tokugawa Iemitsu said with emotion: "China has entered the Three Kingdoms era again. Tell me about these emperors."

    Matsudaira Nobuta said in detail: "Datong Emperor Zhao Han, the capital is in China.?.  Befriending China will only make the shogunate more stable.  You can first send envoys to China to contact the Emperor of Datong.  As a gesture of goodwill, several ports can be opened to Chinese businessmen first.  "

    This suggestion represents the interests of many people.

    Daimyo who are close to the shogunate, officials of the shogunate, Japanese Confucian scholars, and those Chinese maritime merchants.  They connected with each other and planned together for a long time, nothing more than fooling Zhao Han and Tokugawa Iemitsu to expand trade.

    As for Japanese Shintoism, it is still relatively weak at this time, and needs to be integrated and developed together with Japanese Confucian scholars.

    It is the religious chaos in the past few years that has led to the decline of Buddhist power in Japan.

    Especially in coastal areas, Christians burned down a large number of temples - Shinto shrines, because there was no incense and no influence, and even the rebel Christians didn't bother to burn them.

    After thinking carefully, Iemitsu Tokugawa said: "Send an envoy to Nanjing first. ?
