"Meet the leader!"

"Don't call me alliance leader from now on." Ding Yunyi, who was standing on the deck, glanced at Fang Fenghuang, who was ordered to come over: "I heard that you have been to Satsuma Domain?"

"Yes, I've been there several times. I once rescued a woman who was in distress at sea, but I didn't expect that she was Ijuin Chizuru, the adopted daughter of the Shimazu family of the Satsuma Domain, so I recognized her and she invited me to visit her several times."

Ding Yunyi said "Oh": "This time I plan to go to Satsuma Domain to have a look. Since you are familiar with it, please stay with me."

"Yes, it is my honor to be by the leader's side."

Ding Yunyi smiled: "Don't just say nice things in front of me. You might have scolded me as the leader of the alliance on weekdays."

Fang Fenghuang smiled at first, and then said hurriedly: "I don't dare, there is no such thing."

This time, Ding Yunyi was still accompanied by only Duan San'er and Fang Fenghuang. He took a cargo ship and entered Satsuma Domain's Kagoshima Tsurumaru Castle without revealing the mountains or water.

It is absolutely unimaginable here and in Taiwan and along the coast of Fujian. The farmers at the port are not like farmers, and the samurai are not like samurai Japanese. When I asked Fang Fenghuang, they were actually soldiers responsible for guarding the port.

No one checked anything carefully, and the inspections were all lax.

Accompanying the alliance leader to Satsuma Domain this time, Fang Fenghuang did not dare to be careless and deliberately changed into men's clothes. Although a woman dressed in men's clothing could be seen with a little attention, the men's clothing was less eye-catching than what Fang Fenghuang had worn in the past.

many.

"Meng..." A voice sounded from behind, and the word "Meng" was spoken. The man hurriedly changed his title: "Mr. Ding!"

Looking back, I saw that it was the second pirate conference.

Ding Yunyi's appreciation for this hard work made him jump from a "pirate" who was so poor that he had to rely on fishing to make a living, to a powerful man. His gratitude to Ding Yunyi cannot be expressed in words.

"Turning the waves?" Ding Yunyi was also a little surprised: "Why are you here?"

Lang Lifan hurriedly said: "I often come here for supplies, but this time I was delayed due to some matters. I originally wanted to leave today. But seeing that the young master is here, I don't dare to neglect, and I came here to meet the young master."

Ding Yunyi asked casually: "What delayed you?"

Langli turned over and looked to the side: "Back to the young master, Satsuma Domain Governor Shimazu Tadashi suddenly passed away due to serious illness. Because the death was so sudden, no candidate for the governor was appointed. Therefore, several sons are eyeing this position...

...Subordinate... I know Hisao Shimazu of the Shimazu family. He heard that I arrived at Tsurumaru Castle this time, so he kept me here for a few days... Oh, I think it was for the sake of the family governor.

It's about..." Ding Yunyi understood immediately: "But what role can you play as a pirate? Doesn't he know your identity?"

"Mr. Ding, there is a tavern ahead. Let's go there and talk." Langli pointed to the front.

Ding Yunyi nodded and followed Langliwan to the tavern. Langliwan ordered some drinks and food, and then whispered: "It is a common thing for pirates to come to Tsurumaru City. Therefore, most of us are like them.

I know, but I don’t take it seriously. The Shimazu family is in a mess right now. It’s a foregone conclusion that Shimazu Tadashi’s second son, Shimazu Mitsuhisa, will succeed him as the family governor. However, Tadashi’s ninth son, Shimazu Hisao, and Mitsuhisa have always had conflicts and refused to do so.

He obeyed. And he was worried that Guangjiu was plotting to kill him, so he discussed with me day and night... It seems that you have the strength." Ding Yunyi smiled: "How did you give him the idea?"

"Young Master, it's funny that I am here today all because of you." Lang Li turned red and said, "I told Shimazu Hisao, he doesn't have the power in his hands, how can I compete with his elder brother? It's better to avoid getting burned than to avoid it.

So... So I suggested that he simply leave Tsurumaru Castle and go somewhere else... Ding Yunyi's heart suddenly moved, and he frowned without saying a word.

As the waves turned, no one, Duan Saner or Fang Fenghuang, dared to disturb them. After a while, Ding Yunyi suddenly said: "You will arrange a meeting between me and that Shimazu Hisao today."

"Meeting with Hisao Shimazu?" Langli Fan was startled and said hurriedly: "Yes, I will make arrangements right away."

"Find me a place to live." Ding Yunyi said while pondering: "Also, don't mention my identity in front of Hisao Shimazu for the time being."

After hastily using some food and wine, he did not dare to delay in the waves. He first settled down the leader and a few people, and then left in a hurry.

Duan San'er has been following Ding Yunyi for a long time, and he understood a little bit when he said that just now: "Do you think that... yes, my thoughts are also known to you?"

A smile appeared on Duan San'er's face: "My lord is the kind of person who is afraid of chaos in the world...get out!" Ding Yunyi kicked him and couldn't help but laugh.

Fang Fenghuang was confused. He really couldn't figure out what they were talking about or why they were laughing.

After more than an hour, Duan Saner led a Japanese man of about thirty years old to the inn. As soon as they met, he said: "Master Ding, this is Hisao of the Shimazu family... Hisao."

, this is Mr. Ding, a big businessman from Fujian."

"I have admired you for a long time." Hisao Shimazu spoke fluent Chinese.

This is not surprising at all. Most of the so-called aristocratic families in Japan have learned Chinese since childhood and are proud to speak fluent Chinese Mandarin.

"Brother Jiuxiong, please sit down." Ding Yunyi smiled and asked him to sit down.

Shimazu Hisao looked respectful: "I just heard what Langli said. Mr. Ding is a famous family in Taiwan. Hisao has always lived in Tsurumaru Castle. He doesn't know much about the outside world, but he wants to come to Langli.

Friends are all great. Jiuxiong is not prepared and cannot entertain Master Ding. Please Master Ding, please punish me."

"Brother Jiu Xiong is so polite." Ding Yunyi smiled lightly: "This time I came here with a ship of goods, and happened to encounter a rough sea. He tried his best to recommend you to me. I said that we are guests from afar, and the master is

I must meet you."

"Arrived with the cargo ship." Hisao Shimazu blinked: "Are you from the old officer Zheng Zhilong?"

The name of Zheng Zhilong is probably unknown to everyone in Japan. He also monopolized trade with Japan. Of course Hisao Shimazu thought of him first.

Ding Yunyi shook his head: "I'm just an idle businessman...Ah, by the way, I heard that your father has passed away, which is really sad. Please accept my condolences."

Hisao Shimazu wiped his eyes, but there was no sadness on his face at all.

Ding Yunyi just said casually: "I heard that Mitsuhisa Shimazu is about to succeed the family governor. This is really a gratifying thing for the Shimazu family... Hisao Shimazu snorted coldly.

Ding Yunyi just pretended not to know anything: "Brother Jiuxiong, did I say something wrong?"

Lang Lifan understood and said to one side: "Master Ding, I'm afraid you don't know that Shimazu Mitsuhisa is a sinister and vicious person and cannot be trusted. Especially since he and Hisao have always had conflicts, and Hisao is very afraid of his brother.

He was so... oh, offended, offended." Ding Yunyi apologized repeatedly, and then just said to himself: "Since you are afraid, why not replace it?"

"What did you say, Mr. Ding?" Hisao Shimazu's face twitched.

"Ah, I'm talking nonsense, nonsense." Ding Yunyi pretended to make a mistake.

"No, I just heard it. What did you mean by 'replacing'!"

Ding Yunyi let out a long sigh: "Now that Brother Jiuxiong has heard it, I have nothing to hide. Originally it was not for me to say this, but we are all friends who have been together for a long time, and you and I hit it off again, so I

I have to say it. I wonder how Shimazu Mitsuhisa will treat you after taking over?"

Hisao Shimazu shook his head in confusion.

Ding Yunyi smiled: "Maybe I'll give you a place to live? Or give you a lot of money every year? I don't think so... I heard that you and Guangjiu don't get along. Don't you think he won't harm you?"

You? You and Guangjiu are both your father's sons. You don't think about how to cheer yourself up, but you only think about escaping from this place. I don't think this is a very appropriate approach. "

"This..." Shimazu Hisao didn't understand what the other party meant for a moment.

Ding Yunyi said sternly: "Are there not many cases of brothers killing each other in history? In their Tang Dynasty, Li Shimin was a great martial artist, but how did he get the position of emperor? A change in the Xuanwu Sect. The achievements of a great man

The emperor... However, everyone thought that the previous prince Li Jiancheng was a villain who only knew how to flatter others. He had no merit in the first place, but in the end he obtained the title of prince by relying on his "despicable means"

Yes, actually not. Li Jiancheng once made many military exploits...including Li Yuanji. He was also one of the planners and important leaders of the highest development policy of the Tang Dynasty. His status was no less than that of Li Shimin. In his early years, he was a great leader.

Most of the military exploits of the Tang Dynasty were attributed to Li Jiancheng and his subordinates, so after the founding of the People's Republic of China, Li Jiancheng was established as the crown prince. In terms of talent, Li Jiancheng was no worse than Li Shimin. However, Li Shimin later became the victor, so Li Jiancheng's character naturally deteriorated.

, and his achievements and prestige at that time naturally disappeared without a trace... Hisao Shimazu thought thoughtfully.

The Japanese admired Emperor Taizong Li Shimin very much, and Ding Yunyi told the story of Li Shimin most convincingly.

Ding Yunyi smiled and said: "It is recorded in the Tang Dynasty that just three days before the Xuanwu Gate Incident, Li Jiancheng invited Li Shimin to his house for a drink. The two had a pleasant conversation. However, after Li Shimin returned to his Qin Prince's house after the banquet, he was poisoned.

He vomited several liters of blood and almost died. This incident was later considered to be irrefutable evidence that Li Jiancheng wanted to kill Li Shimin. But I want to know that the grudge between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin was not a matter of a day or two. Why did Li Shimin

He would go to the banquet so easily, and the two of them drank freely. Besides, didn't Li Jiancheng know that if Li Shimin died of poisoning after attending the banquet, he would not be able to escape suspicion? What's even more strange is that after Li Shimin was poisoned, he vomited several liters of blood.

And three days after almost losing his life, he was able to launch the Xuanwumen Incident and personally shoot Li Jiancheng a hundred steps away. Is this possible? I don’t believe that someone can almost die after vomiting a few liters of blood.

He was able to mount his horse and cross the Yangtze River at a hundred steps... Shimazu Hisao nodded frequently, and Ding Yunyi said slowly: "But this does not prevent Li Shimin from becoming a great emperor. Just as if the position of the governor of the family is given to you, Brother Hisao, you will be the best in the future."

Achievements may not necessarily be inferior to those of your father."

Hisao Shimazu was shocked. Did Mr. Ding mean that he wanted to imitate Li Shimin?

Although I hate my brother and worry about my life all the time, I have never thought about rebellion... I, my strength is not good..." Shimazu

Jiu Xiong muttered: "Besides, I have never thought about becoming a family governor. Mr. Ding, I'm afraid you have misunderstood me... A lack of strength can make up for it, but if you don't have ambition, just pretend that I never said it." Ding Yunyi

He said calmly: "There are just some things that I don't understand very well. Brother Jiu Xiong treats your brother sincerely, will your brother treat you the same way? You and Guang Jiu are at odds with each other. Many people know that, but the person involved has been

Keeping it in the dark? No one can hurt a tiger's heart, and a tiger can do harm to others. I'm worried that Brother Hisao will regret it when the time comes... Hisao Shimazu shuddered, thinking about these words in a daze.

Yes, what if Shimazu Mitsuhisa harms me? I have nothing, no army, no weapons. If this happens, I can only sit back and wait for death.

"I also heard a saying, wealth can be found through danger." Ding Yunyi knew that his words had moved Hisao Shimazu: "If a person doesn't even have the courage to take risks to seek wealth, he can only live in vain.

Live your life. If a person only knows how to accept hardships, no one will shed a tear for him even if he dies."

Shimazu Hisao stood up with a loud "ooh". Duan San'er just thought that he was angry and wanted to harm the adults, so he grabbed the weapon with one hand.

Unexpectedly, Hisao Shimazu looked at Ding Yunyi for a while, but suddenly he knelt down with a plop: "Please teach me, Mr. Ding."

"Brother Hisao, get up." Ding Yunyi helped him up: "The person who saves you is not others, but yourself. Strike first and control others later. This is the eternal truth. If Brother Hisao is determined

, Ding can help you, besides, there are still waves here, a real man lives between heaven and earth, why not have a vigorous fight? "

"A real man lives between heaven and earth, why not have a vigorous fight?" Hisao Shimazu muttered, and then nodded vigorously:

"Yes, I understand, but what should I do specifically?"
