Daming finally decided to do it, but "decided to do it" and "do it" were not completely synchronized. At this time, all the soldiers and horses are not yet in place, and the food and salaries are being raised and transported.The most important thing is that Li Rusong, the supreme commander, has not rushed back from the front line. Without him, the battle cannot be fought. All these preparations take time. Shen Weijing made an agreement with President Xiaoxi at the beginning of September that there would be a reply within fifty days—that is, on October 20th.Daming wanted to procrastinate on purpose, so the several requests put forward by President Xiaoxi were directly rejected during the court discussion.Since we are going to send troops to fight them, what are we talking about!

But the Japanese and North Koreans are more realistic.Xiaoxi waited eagerly in Pyongyang, and the North Koreans were counting the days with their fingers anxiously.On October 20th, the 50th day was over, but Shen Weijing's figure had not yet arrived, so Xiaoxi became a little anxious. He has heard the wind that Kato Kiyomasa in the north has sent a letter to King Li Yan in Uiju, saying that as long as North Korea is willing to surrender, he will release the two princes and make a permanent alliance.With Kato's move, it was obvious that he was trying to steal business from him.If Kato takes the lead in negotiating peace, he will overwhelm himself!

But in his own rear, the trend of rebels has not abated, and Li sun-shin is rampant. There are even rumors in Japan that Ukita Hideka, Mori Terumoto and others died in North Korea. In a hurry, Xiaoxi led his men out of the city for a few laps, and sent a message to the North Koreans: "If Shen Weijing doesn't come, we will fight to the Yalu River." Song Yingchang was busy in Shanhaiguan at this time.He calculated the progress, and he might have to wait another month or two, so he called Shen Weijing over and told him to go to Pyongyang City again and drag it on for a while.Shen Weijing led the way and traveled day and night, arriving at the border of the Yalu River on the seventh day of November.This is the third time he has entered North Korea.In addition to negotiating peace, he also shouldered another mission, which was to investigate how many troops the Japanese army had in Pyongyang.

After arriving at the border, Shen Weijing did not rush to Pyongyang immediately.He knows negotiating skills, the bigger the picture, the easier it is to awe the other party, and he will be underestimated if he rushes over in a hurry.So, he stayed in Yizhou, first sent an entourage named Lou Guoan to Pyongyang, and first exchanged Shen Jiawang who was raised in the Japanese pirates' den. When Lou Guoan arrived in Pyongyang, he first proposed to see the safety of the hostages.President Xiaoxi brought Shen Jiawang out, and Lou Guoan took a look and found that this buddy... was fat.It turned out that when Shen Jiawang was a hostage in Pyongyang City, he was paid quite generously. President Xiaonishi served him with good wine and meat every day. Except for two guards who were always inseparable, there was no other inconvenience.

Seeing the arrival of Shen Weijing's representative, President Xiaoxi feels relieved, it seems that the people in Daming did not break their promise, they were just late.He rewarded Lou Guoan with silver, and also gave Shen Jiawang a Japanese sword.Before Shen Jiawang left, President Xiaonishi asked when would Shen Guerrilla arrive at your family?Shen Jiawang replied: "It's almost winter now, the days are short and the nights are long. Besides, my master Shen is old and can only walk fifty miles a day. He will arrive around November 20th." President Xiaoxi nodded and wrote a letter: "Tell your master to come quickly, we are all waiting." Shen Jiawang packed the letter and walked out of Pyongyang City, suddenly found that something was wrong.

From the Datong Gate in the east to the Tongtong Gate in the west, there are Japanese soldiers standing everywhere, with bright armor and flags like forests.During the few months Shen Jiawang stayed in Pyongyang, he thought he had a rough idea of ​​the details of the Japanese army. Now when he looked around, he found that more than half of the soldiers did not recognize the flags—obviously they were troops assembled in Pyongyang from elsewhere. President Xiaoxi grinned and patted Shen Jiawang on the shoulder: "I heard that the North Koreans brought in tens of thousands of horses, and you Shen Guerrilla brought over a hundred thousand people from Daming. If you want peace talks, it's fine; if you want war, I also I will accompany you!"

It seems that the Japanese are not lacking in discernment, and have already doubted the sincerity of Ming's peace talks. After receiving Shen Jiawang's report, Shen Weijing showed no signs of fear.Others advised him to be careful, but he said he was fine nonchalantly.Shen Weijing is so calm because he came to North Korea this time and brought something carefully wrapped in yellow furoshiki.As long as there is such a thing, not only can he save his life, but he can also successfully complete the procrastination mission. Shen Weijing was not frightened, but the North Korean monarchs and ministers were frightened to the point of shit.On November 15th, Shen Weijing slowly crossed the Yalu River all the way. When the Koreans heard about it, they became extremely anxious.It took them a lot of effort to persuade Daming to send troops. How could a bastard's peace talks ruin all of this—not to mention the terms of the peace talks, which were entirely based on the premise of sacrificing North Korea's interests.

Therefore, when Shen Weijing was on his way to Yizhou, North Korean envoys also rushed to Liaodong in wave after wave, complaining to Yang Shaoxun, Song Yingchang, the censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and everyone who could. With such a state of mind, the North Koreans' attitude towards Shen Weijing was almost hostile.Shen Weijing arrived in Yizhou on November 17th, and the reception official at the post house lazily threw him a jar of sour wine and several broken bowls. Shen Weijing was so angry that he threw his chopsticks on the ground, turned and left. At the same time, the envoys who went to Liaodong reported one after another, saying that Liaodong was indifferent and ignored North Korea's complaints.Yin Geunshou received the report, pondered it carefully, and realized a little bit-the North Korean ministers are concerned about it, but they are chaotic.He hurriedly reported to Li Yan that Shen Guerrilla came this time, probably to paralyze the enemy, tricking them into releasing the two princes before attacking Pyongyang.

Li Yan didn't trust this old liar at all, so he asked the enemy why he let him go after hearing him?Yin Genshou himself had no idea, so he had to answer vaguely that Tianchao knew Japanese affairs well, and I couldn't guess what mystery was hidden in it.Li Yan pouted, not believing it. When meeting Shen Weijing, Li Yan was not polite at all, and immediately questioned: "I heard that you are here for peace talks? We have a deep hatred with Japan, how can the Celestial Dynasty make peace with such a clown?" What kind of person is Shen Weijing? Can be intimidated by a mere Korean king, and immediately replied: "I made an appointment with the Japanese for a 50-day truce, but it was not for them. It was because North Korea was in the rainy season, the roads were muddy, and there were paddy fields everywhere, which was not conducive to marching. Only when the paddy fields are dry and the autumn coolness is finished, can we enter the army. I went to negotiate purely to deceive you two princes back, and then lead the army to attack."

His answer was reasonable, and Li Yan relaxed a little, and then asked some questions about the military situation in succession.Shen Weijing answered fluently, and when he was excited, he choked his neck and said: "A high-ranking official like me should have spent his old age at home, but now he goes to the meeting alone and is not afraid of life and death. Why? Isn't it all for the benefit of your country? Lord Shi (Shi Xing) can’t eat well or sleep well every day because of you, and I’m here to repay him!” This wonderful speech completely convinced the North Korean monarchs and ministers, and no one questioned his purpose of the peace talks.Li Yan was very ashamed of misunderstanding Shen Weijing, so he sent someone to send him a batch of information on North Korean spies planted in Pyongyang, hoping to help him on his trip to Pyongyang.He also severely punished the post office officials who neglected Shen Weijing.

After Shen Weijing left Uiju, within a few days, the Koreans began to panic again.Because Marshal Jin Mingyuan reported back from the front line that Shen Weijing behaved very strangely, and even Liu Chenglong didn't see him, so he went straight to Pyongyang City.When he entered Pyongyang, more than a hundred Japanese soldiers opened the door and welcomed him in, looking very intimate. At this time, someone said, seeing Shen Weijing on the road, carrying a yellow fur skin, inseparable, could it be the imperial edict written by Emperor Ming to Xingxing Xiaoxi?Everyone guessed what was in the fur skin.Some people also said that Shi Xing was the main battler, how could he send Shen Weijing to negotiate peace.Some people even suggested that it is better to take advantage of the enemy's relaxation of vigilance and kill the army to take advantage of the situation to seize the city-this is to kill Shen Weijing on purpose. Hearing the foolishness of the ministers, what kind of thoughts does Shen Weijing have, Li Yan is not at ease again. Shen Weijing didn't care what the North Koreans thought. He wandered all the way and arrived in Pyongyang on the 25th.That night the Japanese invited him to a meal at Fushanwon near Pyongyang and entered the city the next day. President Xiaoxi was very happy to see Shen Weijing coming, he quickly opened the gate of the city, entertained him graciously, and sent his guards to carry him into the city, his attitude was quite different from the last time he entered the city surrounded by white knives.It's just that there are soldiers and generals parading everywhere, ambush for murder.Shen Weijing didn't change his countenance and heartbeat, chatting and laughing with Xiaoxi, while secretly counting the number of soldiers in the city - he later estimated that the total number of troops in Pyongyang City was about 14,000 to 20,000, which was the same as that of the main force of the First Army. About the same, very accurate.In contrast, the North Koreans have fought against Xiaoxi countless times, and they are still confused about the enemy's strength. They are not as shrewd as Shen Weijing, a big liar. Sitting in a circle on both sides, the Japanese side is Yukio Konishi, Zong Yoshitomo, Yi Tiao, Xuan Su, Zong Yi, or the five-member team from the last negotiation.President Xiaoxi asked, what is Tianchao's opinion on the request made last time? Shen Weijing calmly took out the yellow fur skin from his bosom, took out a document, and handed it to President Xiaoxi.Captain Xiaoxi took it over, inspected it, and found that the head covering was the Guanfang of the Beijing Ministry of War and the imprint of Shi Xing. It's a counterfeit product, this time the administrative level is much more decent. President Xiaoxi didn't understand Chinese, so he asked Monk Xuansu to translate for him.After listening to Xuansu read, he couldn't close his mouth from laughing.This Ministry of War document reads: "We already know Japan's difficulties. It turns out that you raised your troops just to pay tribute to the Celestial Dynasty. It is all because of North Korea's treachery that led to the war between the two countries. Now that it is all a misunderstanding, you should hurry up. Return the land and the two princes to North Korea, and just find another way to pay tribute.” This reply letter is quite cunning, with hidden mysteries in its writing.It didn't agree to any of Xiaoxi's two requests, but it seemed to have answered both.The banner of Japan is to pay tribute, no problem, if you change the route, you may not necessarily pass through North Korea, such a light sentence will pry away the foundation of Japan's excuse.As for Xiaoxi's plan to divide the Datong River into governance, it was not mentioned in the document at all. Instead, the return of the land and the prince was regarded as a prerequisite for paying tribute. The seven twists and turns turned an issue of armistice into an issue of tribute, and took the bargaining chips of the Japanese for their own use.Only people like Shi Xing and Song Yingchang who have experienced the officialdom of the Ming Dynasty can play this exquisite technique of Tai Chi with ease. President Xiaoxi was really confused, and he didn't come back to it for a long time.His subordinates, Zong Yizhi and Yi Tiao, are semi-literate. Although Xuansu and Zong Yi are very familiar with Han culture, they can't learn this kind of mysterious push-hands skills without more than ten years of immersion in the officialdom. Several people got together to discuss it, and President Xiaoxi said to Shen Weijing in a bit of embarrassment: "The two princes are both in the hands of Kato Kiyomasa, I can't decide this matter." Shen Weijing immediately replied: "Then you What can I do?" President Xiaoxi thought for a while, and replied: "Give back Pyongyang City to you, and divide the Datong River into governance. I can make up my mind about this matter." Shen Weijing shook his head like a rattle: "No, no, no. If we can’t talk about peace like this, we’d better go back and wait for the war.” President Xiaoxi was very anxious, and said a little coyly: "Ping'an Road is my defense zone, and I can make the decision. But the other roads in North Korea are guarded by other generals, and they don't listen to me." This sentence hit Shen Weijing's heart: "Speaking of which, since you can't decide these two conditions, then go back and report to Shangfeng. Let's discuss after your plan is finalized." In a word, he kicked the ball back. President Konishi has to repay Hideyoshi Ukita’s family and elders in Seoul, and then Seoul has to repay Hideyoshi in Nagoya. This will take at least a month.With this one month, the Ming army can basically be ready-the most amazing thing is that Shen Weijing also made President Xiaoxi and others feel that the responsibility for delaying the negotiation is not the Ming side, but the Japanese side. Seeing that his goal of delaying time had been achieved, Shen Weijing decided to let it go as soon as it was good, and not to push the Japanese too hard.So the two sides took a step back. The guilty President Xiaonishi decided to return Pyongyang City to Daming first, and the Japanese army retreated to the east of the Datong River. Other terms will be discussed after Hideyoshi is informed; First persuade the court to do the canonization of Hideyoshi to show sincerity. Finally, the guests and guests agreed that on January 7, the 21st year of Wanli, the special envoy of the Ming Dynasty would wait at the Suning Pavilion north of Pyongyang to hand over the Japanese army.When President Xiaoxi asked him who the imperial envoy would send, Shen Weijing's answer was full of black humor and very comedic, and he replied sternly: "Li Rusong." This time he will go to Annan Daitian Xunhun for a week. It is said that the network there is very developed, but the schedule is very tight, so in the next week, I will try to keep the speed of one update per day. Please forgive me for any inconvenience. .As an apology, I'll be a little more today! Finally, the guests and guests agreed that on January 7, the 21st year of Wanli, the special envoy of the Ming Dynasty would wait at the Suning Pavilion north of Pyongyang to hand over the Japanese army.When President Xiaoxi asked him who the imperial envoy would send, Shen Weijing's answer was full of black humor and very comedic, and he replied sternly: "Li Rusong." His answer is basically honest, not completely lying.Later, Li Rusong did come to the Suning Pavilion in January, but what he brought was not a guard of honor, but tens of thousands of soldiers and various cannons. Thus, the second Sino-Japanese negotiation ended successfully in a friendly and enthusiastic atmosphere.Shen Weijing left and returned to Yizhou on December 3rd.The North Korean rulers and ministers were panicking, seeing him coming back, they grabbed him desperately and asked him how the talk was going, whether Daming would send troops or not.Shen Weijing was annoyed by the questioning, and shouted: "The order I received is to negotiate, don't ask me about other matters, ask Song Yingchang!" Then he turned and left. His words made the North Koreans even more afraid.When they saw that Ming was standing still in Liaodong, they were afraid that this negotiation was for real, that the south of the Datong River would be ceded to Japan, and they were all flustered.Li Yan didn't even think about it, the army was assembled, how could it be possible not to fight? This is not the first time this bunch of confused monarchs and ministers have been confused.They fought the Japanese for a year, and they didn't even know how many enemies there were. Some guessed it was 80,000, some guessed it was 320,000, and some even guessed that there were only 900 people in Pyongyang.Such ignorant people don't understand the art of war or the situation. It is so difficult to expect them to rationally understand Daming's layout and intentions, so that even Comrade Shen Weijing, a charlatan and chatterbox, doesn't want to talk nonsense with them anymore. Li Yan had a discussion with his subordinates, and he felt that it would not work if he went on like this. If he was not killed by the Japanese, he would have to be scared to death by himself.Still have to ask the meaning of the above.Han Yingyin, the judge of Gongcao, had been an envoy to Ming Dynasty before and had rich experience in defending false accusations. Li Yan sent him to Liaodong to meet Song Yingchang and ask him what happened. Han Yingyin found Song Yingchang's Yamen and strongly demanded an interview.Song Yingchang looked helpless. Since he entered the town of Liaodong, the Koreans asked to meet each other every day, and wrote letters one after another. No matter how they said it, they didn't believe it, not to mention they were terrified. It was too difficult to serve.So he said to Han Yingyin that I had said Che Rulu many times, and I took the trouble to write it clearly in the letter, so go back.Tomorrow I will send 5,000 troops across the river, half of them will be stationed in Dingzhou, and the other half will be stationed in Yizhou. Is this the head office? Han Yingyin asked when the army will move?Song Yingchang replied that I am just a strategist, and the main force will have to wait for Li Zongbing to move.That's four or five days.It will definitely be dispatched this month, I beg you, just don't ask, okay? Han Yingyin was still stubborn and refused to leave, and finally mentioned that Shen Guerrilla went to Pyongyang to negotiate, did you know... Song Yingchang's face changed when he heard this, and he gave him a hard look: "This is not something you should ask!" Added a sentence: "I was ordered to fight against Japanese pirates, and I don't know anything else." Thanks to the "Records of the Li Dynasty" left by the Koreans, the details of these conversations were left behind, so that we can fully understand the state of mind of several interlocutors at that time. Han Yingyin is anxious, painful and a little rogue; while Song Yingchang is helpless with a hint of impatience and a bit of vigilance. Song Yingchang had never liked Shen Weijing - not only him, but everyone had never liked this boastful liar. The officialdom of the Ming Dynasty has its own set of internal rules, and the promotion and promotion of civil and military officials all follow the rules—and Shen Weijing is a rascal in the market, without any fame, and has not made an inch of merit. Appearing, he has to be awarded the post of guerrilla general, but he is still acting as an envoy of a country, representing Ming Dynasty to fight against other countries, this is really unacceptable.The description of this person in Chinese historical materials is not good, and it is also a manifestation of such emotions. Shi Xing didn't know why, but when other officials mentioned this person, they all lost face and felt that they were "represented". Moreover, the work Shen Weijing was engaged in was not glorious in the eyes of Ming officials.It is too embarrassing to talk about such things. Even if it is a fake peace talk to delay time, if it is made public, it will be impeached by those officials and cause big trouble.Therefore, Shen Weijing's peace talks were only circulated among some high-level officials, and neither lower-level officials nor military officers had heard of them. When Han Yingyin mentioned this name, Song Yingchang pushed back extremely sensitively, not allowing him to continue talking.These North Koreans talk too much, he must have thought so in his heart at that time. North Korea's doubts about Shen Weijing were not dispelled until December 8 by Zheng Kunshou who returned from Beijing.After Zheng Kunshou returned to Yizhou, he told Li Yan about the dispute between China and North Korea about sending troops and the whole process of decision-making, and Li Yan understood the twists and turns.Zheng Kunshou also took out the transcript of Xue Fan's report, and extracted a passage that mentioned Shen Weijing's peace talks: "The guerrilla Shen Weijing was desperate, and he rode alone to speak for about 50 days. He slowed down his invasion and waited for our soldiers to arrive. However, I believe that This technique fools him, and he knows that he is not fooling me with this technique." Shen Weijing could not believe it, but Xue Fan was a great benefactor of North Korea, but he had to believe it. Soon Han Yingyin in Liaodong also sent back news that he had found a heavyweight in the military in Liaodong: General Youxie, Deputy Commander Zhang Shijue.Zhang Shijue had already heard the notoriety of these people's entanglements, so he told him straightforwardly: Li Rusong's army has arrived in Liaodong, and he will definitely send troops within fifteen days.He also said that you are wrong to blame Shen Weijing, we are planning to use the name of peace talks to lure the enemy out, and then gather and wipe them out. At this point, Li Yan's doubts were all gone.Shen Weijing's previous weird behaviors have all been reasonably explained.The North Koreans also comforted themselves that Shen Guerrilla was unwilling to tell us the truth because he was afraid that we would leak military information. If Shen Weijing heard it, he would definitely call out Bang Tianqu.He had already told the North Koreans his true intentions, who told them not to listen! Just when everything seemed to disappear, things suddenly changed. On December 13th, Li Yan chatted with the ministers, talked about Shen Weijing, and still praised Shen Weijing's strategy is really good.While talking, Han Yingyin stepped in, sweating profusely, holding a document in his hand. Li Yan opened it and was a little dazed.This document was issued by Zhang Shijue, who had just praised Shen Weijing the day before yesterday. It reminded the North Korean side that Shen Weijing had been arrested, and asked them to closely monitor and prevent Shen Weijing's entourage from entering Pyongyang. Li Yan couldn't figure it out, wasn't this a strategy set by Daming, why did he become a sinner again now? The document mentions Shen Weijing’s crimes mainly in three points: first, leaking military information to the Japanese pirates; Governor Konishi tore up the treaty and captured Zhonghe Tucheng near Pyongyang. These three charges are very far-fetched.The first charge has no basis, but Shen Weijing has brought back a lot of information on the Japanese pirates; the second charge is unfounded, although Shen Weijing has no Liaodong people around him, but the Beijing Ministry of War clearly sent Lou Guoan to accompany him; the third charge is even more serious. Well, when Chief Konishi captured Zhonghe Tucheng, Shen Weijing hadn't even entered Pyongyang, let alone peace talks. Why did the Liaodong generals who were still defending Shen Weijing suddenly turn their faces faster than turning the book? What Li Yan didn't know was that an extremely sudden sinking movement was erupting in the territory of Liaodong at this time. Li Rusong's younger brother, Li Rubai, recruited North Korean envoys to investigate Shen Weijing's economic problems in depth, and asked him carefully where the silver and cloth brought into North Korea had gone, and whether he had committed any violations of discipline.He also secretly showed two secret letters to the North Korean envoys.These two secret letters came from Shi Xing and Song Yingchang, and the contents inside were similar: Shen Weijing's peace negotiation with the Japanese pirates was his own nonsense.Daming concentrated on the crusade without any other thoughts. The envoy was shocked and wanted to copy the contents of the letter to the king, but Li Rubai refused. On December 17th, Daming's attitude became clearer. Li Rusong clearly pointed out in Liaoyang: "Shen Weijing, that old liar, is not trustworthy at all. I have never trusted him at all." It is said that when Shen Weijing went to meet the famous admiral, he was ordered to tie him up and almost push him out. Beheaded directly. It is worth pondering that Song Yingchang, who was also in Liaoyang, was ill at the time. He summoned the North Korean envoy to the sickbed and whispered in his ear, "What Shen Weijing did was Shi Shangshu's idea. I didn't know it. I was in Guangning before. I told him at the time that if the Japanese were willing to return all their territory, it would be a good idea for peace talks. As long as there is an inch of land that has not been restored, they should not make concessions. After he came back, he actually said that he was willing to rule the Datong River with the Japanese. I was very angry when I heard it, and directly detained him." In a message sent to North Korea later, Song Yingchang blatantly stated: If the guerrilla Shen Weijing went to Japan and threatened, "Pyongyang will be with China, not with North Korea"...it is absolutely unreasonable." Shen Weijing's crime was completely confirmed. . Almost in an instant, Shen Weijing became a prisoner who was shouted and beaten by everyone, from a heroic negotiator to a traitor who hurt the feelings of the Chinese and North Korean people. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the collective face change of these senior officials only means one thing: Unload the mill and kill the donkey. After all, negotiating with the Japanese is a disgraceful thing.Now that the purpose of delaying time has been achieved, the peace talks themselves have become a sensitive and taboo topic.If someone finds out about this relationship, even if a few insiders make it clear, it will still cause a lot of trouble.In particular, the Koreans made troubles in Liaodong again and again, asking these officials repeatedly about the peace talks, and it was hard to guarantee that any wrong words would reach the ears of the imperial censor as evidence of settlement after autumn. Daming would never admit that he had any intention of negotiating, so the peace talks need to be interpreted as a personal illegal act, so finding a scapegoat to explain to the North Korean allies seems logical. The officials of the Ming Dynasty were all in groups, and dealing with a loyal official without authorization would chill the hearts of the entire bureaucracy.However, when dealing with Shen Weijing, there is no such pressure at all. He is just a street rascal, the kind of garbage that scholar-bureaucrats despise the most, so let him die, it is not a pity at all.Thus, the agreement between Shen Weijing and Xiao Xixing to rule the Great Harmony changed from a plan to delay the army to a ready-made crime. From the very beginning when Shi Xing found Shen Weijing, he had made up his mind to throw out this unidentified abandoned child when necessary, and let him bear all the responsibilities.Although Shen Weijing is a great liar, he did not underestimate the cruelty and heartlessness of politicians. In many treatises on the Imchen War, researchers believe that Shen Weijing's peace negotiation activities during this period were a manifestation of the Ming court's peace advocates. As the date of Li Rusong's entry into the court approached, such peace negotiations became unnecessary. That's why he died.In fact, Shen Weijing's peace talks were aimed at delaying time from the very beginning, and he never deviated from this goal, and the officials of Ming Dynasty knew it well. Fortunately, the Koreans themselves were not at ease, and they went to Liaodong again and again to inquire, and recorded the process in detail in the "Records of the Li Dynasty", so that future generations can clearly see how a negotiator changed from a hero to a negotiator. Notorious traitor. What happened to Shen Weijing himself was worse than his reputation. After he returned to Liaodong from Pyongyang, he went to see Li Rusong according to the rules.In order to strengthen the morale of the army and show his stand for the war to the end, Li Rusong deliberately formed a large formation and called all his staff over.Shen Weijing stepped forward and told about his experience in Pyongyang. Li Rusong was furious, slapped the table and cursed him as a spy and a traitor, and ordered his soldiers to tie him up and push him out to sacrifice the flag. At this moment of life and death, a person shouted: "Keep people under the sword!" Li Rusong looked back and found that the person who shouted was his aide Li Yingshi.Li Yingshi is Matteo Ricci's personal disciple, an orthodox Catholic, and he is acting as the mastermind under Li Rusong's tent at this time. Li Rusong was a little puzzled, Li Yingshi had no friendship with Shen Weijing, how could he speak for him?Li Yingshi smiled slightly, and said something to Li Rusong's ear: "It's a strange plan to respect the seal of the Japanese and attack them secretly." Shen Weijing had agreed with President Xiaoxi that Li Rusong would go to Pyongyang to be canonized in the first month of the 21st month of Wanli.Li Yingshi thought this was a good opportunity for the Ming army to pretend to be a canonized team and open the city gates when the Japanese army lost their vigilance, and Pyongyang could go down with a drum. Upon hearing this, Li Rusong agreed with his beard and ordered Shen Weijing not to be killed for the time being, but to put him in a prison car and set out to cross Liao with the army. I believe that Shen Weijing's heart at this time must be full of fear for the rest of his life after the catastrophe.After going through hell, Shen Weijing was completely awakened. He realized a cruel fact: as an abandoned child, he had no way out.If he wants to survive, he has to keep proving that he is still valuable, and he can't stop. In the subsequent series of peace talks, Shen Weijing made many weird choices that ordinary people could not understand, and showed many absurd behaviors that could not be explained by common sense, which puzzled researchers.All these actions can find the answer from Shen Weijing at this moment. From now on, Shen Weijing must try his best to prove that his existence is still worthwhile, otherwise he will die.
