"Having lost his patron, Taira no Moritaka's future is uncertain."
"But he still has ample military strength at his disposal."
"If you were Taira no Tadamori, what would you do?"
Zhao Xiaozhong thought for a moment and said:
"Execute the powerful ministers and send envoys to the Ming Dynasty,"
"Welcome back Toba Japanese King!"
Zhang Jun laughed and said, "If we don't fight a battle in Iwami Province,"
"Tadamori Taira can definitely do it."
"But he suffered heavy losses in Iwami Province,"
"Moreover, his prestige within the army has plummeted,"
"Their strength has been greatly diminished ever since."
"Fujiwara no Tadashi, together with the monks,"
"If they start fighting,"
"It's really hard to predict who will win or lose."
"Ugh!"
Zhang Jun sighed, "The outcome can be decided quickly."
"Of course, there's nothing to say."
"If the fight becomes evenly matched,"
"It will inevitably involve the local areas as well."
"Through mutual exploitation and competition, local powerful families can seize territory and grow stronger,"
"Wouldn't they all become feudal lords?"
Zhao Xiaozhong said with a serious expression:
"If that's the case, the Japanese soldiers will actually become even more formidable,"
"It's impossible for it to collapse so easily as it does now."
"This matter requires extra caution,"
"We cannot allow Japan to dominate the world."
"We must keep the country in constant chaos."
As the two were talking,
Zhao Xiaozhong's personal guards knocked on the door:
"Brother, the Japanese have sent two noble ladies."
"I heard they all originated from the Fujiwara clan."
"No, no, send them all back!"
Zhao Xiaozhong waved his hands repeatedly.
He watched a song and dance performance a couple of days ago.
I was startled by that terrifying outfit.
The two Fujiwara noblewomen were sent back.
But this greatly frightened Fujiwara no Tadashi.
He personally came over that very night to inquire where the service had been inadequate.
Annoyed by Zhao Xiaozhong's questions, he simply said:
"Your noblewoman from Japan,"
"It looks absolutely terrifying,"
"They all look like female ghosts,"
"If I woke up in the middle of the night and bumped into it, I would be scared to death."
Seeing the Ming general's disdainful look,
Fujiwara no Tadashi felt somewhat inferior: "Women from this humble country cannot compare to those from the Celestial Empire in appearance."
Zhao Xiaozhong waved his hand and said, "It has nothing to do with appearance."
I was referring to makeup.
"She was a commoner woman from Japan."
"She's much prettier than a noblewoman."
"Teeth stained black look especially bad,"
“Even shaving off a small tuft of eyebrows looks bad.”
Fujiwara Tadashi, however, said, "This is an imitation of Tang Dynasty makeup."
"How could it be ugly?"
Zhang Jun remarked, "I have never heard of Tang Dynasty women considering black teeth as a sign of beauty."
"Furthermore, it is now the Ming Dynasty,"
"It is no longer the Tang Dynasty."
“You Japanese should always respect the Ming Dynasty.”
"Yes!"
Fujiwara no Tadashi replied respectfully.
Driven by a desire to admire the strong,
The Ming Dynasty envoys and soldiers
Having only stayed in Heian-kyo for a few days,
Some nobles had already begun to imitate it.
First, the hat.
Clothes are hard to change.
Changing your hat is easy.
Zhao Yuan disliked the long-winged black gauze hats of the Song Dynasty.
They thought that thing was inefficient.
Therefore, officials were required to wear cross-winged black gauze hats.
Cross-winged black gauze hat,
It simply involves clipping the two hat wings together at the back of the head.
Chapter 3251 The Hat with Wings
During the Northern Song Dynasty,
Many officials do this for the sake of convenience in their daily activities.
In fact, he often wears a black gauze hat with crossed wings in private.
In order to demonstrate their status, the clerks...
I also want to wear one of those hats with wings.
Despite the overstepping of his authority, he still wore a black gauze hat with crossed wings.
With a single command from His Majesty Zhao…
Officials followed suit.
But officials and clerks must be distinguished.
Otherwise, how can one demonstrate their official status?
So the officials voluntarily untied their crossed wings.
It's been shortened and is hanging down the back of my head.
Zhang Jun wore this kind of hat when he was sent on a diplomatic mission to Japan.
The nobles of Heian-kyo followed suit.
Counterfeit products began to appear within a few days.
Fujiwara no Tadashi left in a humble and condescending manner.
I went home and started thinking.
He went too far as a powerful minister.
To betray the emperor and humiliate the nation
There will inevitably be many people who are dissatisfied.
Moreover, although Minamoto no Yoshimi could be won over...
Taira no Tadamori, however, was definitely going to cause trouble.
I must find a way to enhance my prestige!
After suppressing Taira no Tadamori,
Fujiwara no Tadashi prepared to send an envoy to the Ming Dynasty.
They raised the banner of revitalizing the nation to the outside world.
In fact, it was to strengthen ties with the Ming Dynasty court.
The Ming army was stationed in Iwami Province, Tsushima Island, and Sado Island.
As long as Fujiwara no Tadashi pretends to have the support of the Ming Dynasty,
Japanese nobles, monks, samurai, and powerful clans, fearing the Ming army,
They dared not openly defy Fujiwara no Tadashi's rule.
Meanwhile, the process of selecting "envoys to the Ming Dynasty" also took place.
It was also a process of winning over nobles, monks, and warriors.
We must obey Fujiwara no Tadashi.
Only then will they have a chance to be selected to go to the Ming Dynasty!
Those纨绔子弟 (sons of wealthy and powerful families) from the main branch of the Fujiwara Hokuke family,
There will be legitimate jobs available in the future.
That is, to learn and promote the various fashions of the Ming Dynasty.
Let "Ming style" become a trend.
Heian-kyo must be very proud of this.
They regarded the direct descendants of the Fujiwara Hokuke family as disseminators of Ming Dynasty culture.
Don't underestimate the power of simply creating a cultural and fashion trend.
This is actually a matter of discourse power.
Fujiwara no Tadashi became increasingly smug.
This invasion by the Ming Dynasty,
It was like a blessing from the gods for him.
