Tokugawa Iemitsu is definitely not a good character to be with. Even if he is afraid now, after calming down, he thinks about how to learn all this instead of surrendering.

Ren Yizhen and Miao Shoumo repeatedly confirmed this and agreed with each other's view on the fact that Tokugawa Ieguru is ill-behaved.

At the same time, the two agreed with Emperor Chongzhen's previous statement that he wanted to flatten Japan. If they were not eliminated early, they would cause great trouble in the future.

As for now, the most urgent task is to let this kid see what the Ming Navy is. I don’t know why His Majesty the Emperor changed the navy to the navy, but it was so angry that he heard it.

Zheng Zhihu, who was unhappy because Tagawa Jiro Emon failed to go to the Ming Dynasty with his sister-in-law, had long been unhappy with the boy from the Tokugawa family.

This time, even if dry firewood hits fire, pheasant meets perverts.

After Ren Yizhen and Miao Shoumo discussed with Zheng Zhihu, the three of them decided to give the prodigal boy a little color on the whale matter first.

After the ship left Japan, Zheng Zhilong began to order his men, heading towards Denglai while paying attention to whether there were any whales on the sea.

As a result, the blessing of not being severe at this time, shortly after leaving Japan, there were several whales alone.

Ren Yizhen was a little anxious and said to Zheng Zhihu while Tokugawa Ie-kun was not present: "Why not hurry up? I'll be able to go to Lai tomorrow afternoon?"

Zheng Zhihu, who was extremely unhappy in his heart, said, "Yes, but that's tomorrow afternoon, not this afternoon. Now that so many whales are killed, how can you get them back? Take a step back, even if you get them back, it will probably be foul."

After hearing this, Ren Yizhen gave up the idea of ​​letting Zheng Zhilong get a few whales first to enjoy it.

At noon the next day, the fleet once again discovered a group of whales.

Zheng Zhihu was excited and ordered repeatedly: "Go, go into the cabin and shout out the angels and the little Japanese man. I'll eat whale meat for lunch and dock in the afternoon!"

As the personal soldiers went to call for people, Zheng Zhihu ordered again: "I'm not afraid of waste today. When they come, they will first use cannons and then shoot fish and arrows!"

Most of the people in the fleet under Zheng Zhihu were originally pirates who had been scrambling at sea with the Zheng brothers. They had a great grudge against the Japanese. This time they had the opportunity to scare the Japanese shorts, and they were even more excited.

After waiting for everyone to arrive on the deck, Zheng Zhihu said, "We will be able to dock in the afternoon. We can't go to the supply empty-handed, it's not very appropriate. We have to bring some souvenirs.

Just so happens that there is a group of whales here, so you have to get a few of them, so that the people in Denglai can also try them out."

At this time, Japan was not without whaling, and whether it was whale meat or other fish meat, it was the mainstream food in Japan at this time. As the saying goes, eating the mountains and the sea, the Japanese who had been fighting for many years were all Chinese.

No matter which group of Chinese people it is, they are not something that the untouchables can afford.

Whaling is also a big deal for the Japanese slaves at this time. After all, the whale is placed there. No matter how small the whale is, it is much larger than the Japanese slaves' ship. If you accidentally get the ship overturned and drowned.

Zheng Zhihu's fleet had no such concerns at all.

The size of the world is the best blessed ship, especially the blessed ship that was later renovated and equipped with dozens of artillery guns. It is not too easy to deal with a whale group. If it is replaced with a Japanese short-sized ship, except to set fire after getting close, it is basically impossible to get a blessed ship.

Even so, you have to be careful not to be knocked over by the lucky ship.

After Zheng Zhihu, who was deliberately scary, the string window on the left side of the lucky ship was opened first, and more than twenty cannons installed were extended out.

With a command, a rumbling sound came out, like thunder.

After a close call, the giant crossbow, which seemed to be siegeing a city at the bow and stern of the ship, opened its bowstrings. After a creaking sound, it dragged a long rope toward the location of the whale group with a whoosh.

There are six such giant crossbows on the bow and stern, and there are four on the deck. The one on the left also shot the giant crossbows out.

After the shaking caused by the cannon and arrows stopped, the whales that survived the whales were already scattered, and a red blood appeared on the sea surface.

If you look at this sea surface closer, it makes people think that the sea water is red.

As the order to close the net was issued, the long rope carried by the shot crossbow arrow began to shrink back little by little.

Before shooting out a total of eight crossbows, there were six of them empty. Only a crossbow arrow on the bow and a deck shot the whale, and the rest fell to nothing.

There are about a dozen whales floating on the sea.

After ordering the messengers to carry a whale on their accompanying ships, Zheng Zhihu pretended to be regretful: "What's the use of these prodigal boys doing so many? You said you couldn't take them away, so you just threw them away!"

After saying that, they picked up Zheng Fusong, who was also running to the deck, and the two of them started playing, but left Ren Yizhen and others aside.

Ren Yizhen laughed and said, "Have Jiaguang ever seen such a scene?"

Tokugawa Iemitsu, who was still a little dissatisfied, had a trace of fear flashed in his eyes at this moment, and he bowed: "Go back to my uncle, my nephew has lived in the main island for a long time, and I have never seen such a scene."

Ren Yizhen said: "It's okay, I'll get used to it when I see it a few times. I know how to catch this whale. In the future, you can bring the Japanese people to a good life."

Tokugawa Iemitsu first spoke, thanked Zheng Zhihu and Ren Yizhen politely, and then returned to the cabin to rest.

Tokugawa Iemitsu also knew the purpose of this group of people. To put it bluntly, I would like to first see how hard the Ming Dynasty's fist was, and let myself consider it. Don't create any bullshit battles or other Japanese riots in the future.

But the conscience of the world, Tokugawa Ie-gwang originally planned to stay in the country, so he didn't plan to play these messy things with you, okay?

Before it is completely unified with the country, we will never be enemies of the Ming Dynasty!

Tokugawa Iemitsu made a secret decision in his heart.

Ren Yizhen on the deck gestured to Zheng Zhihu and said, "General Zheng is doing a pretty job, this little dwarf may not be scared."

Zheng Zhihu, who was holding Zheng Fusong, laughed and said, "It's better to be scared to death. Oh my god, why dare you to let the Japanese girl go to the Central Plains and leave my little nephew on the broken island and suffer!"

Ren Yizhen smiled and said, "This may not be a good thing. Think about it, this Kyushu Island will be from the Ming Dynasty in the future, right? What is the difference between letting your nephew live on Kyushu Island and Daming?"

Zheng Zhihu then said hatefully: "It's better to take away all the short islands and feed them fish in the sea. It's annoying to see!"

Ren Yizhen did not answer the conversation anymore, but just took Zheng Fusong from Zheng Zhihu's arms and started teasing her.

Damn, you drove all the Japanese slaves into the sea to feed fish. Who will I sell my longevity cream?

That's his mother!

When he arrived at Ningbo and asked the Japanese to complete the trade first, Ren Yizhen met Zheng Zhilong and asked Zheng Zhilong not to know whether it was good or bad. Emperor Chongzhen asked Zheng Zhilong's eldest son to enter Beijing when he was seven years old. Emperor Chongzhen would take him by his side to train him.

This is what Zheng Zhilong is confused about.

Is the emperor worried about himself? He wants to treat his son as a hostage?

Zheng Zhilong, who felt that he couldn't figure it out, simply called Zheng Zhifeng. This guy had studied and had a good brain.

After listening to Zheng Zhilong's description, Zheng Zhifeng carefully said: "It shouldn't be, at least your Majesty shouldn't have this idea now.

Otherwise, our brothers would have been dealt with long ago. Not many others, how many of our brothers are now interested in the court? How many of them were secretly infiltrated and bribed by the Jinyiwei?"

Zheng Zhilong had nothing to say. He knew what Zheng Zhifeng said, and there must be many people who were on the side of the court. Even if he raised the anti-flag flag now, he was afraid that there were only a few responders.

Especially now that the entire South China Sea Fleet has fully equipped with cannons and muskets, although traditional swords and other things are also used, the proportion of firearms is several times higher than before.

The consequence of replacing firearms is that the combat effectiveness of the South China Sea Fleet is countless times stronger than before, but accordingly, its dependence on logistics has increased countless times.

At least after the ammunition supply was cut off, the entire South China Sea Fleet would be almost the same even if it was not a living target.

But now the court has no idea of ​​controlling supplies at all. The ammunition is replenished in time every time, and the amount is large and the amount is sufficient.

From this point of view, what Zheng Zhifeng said is not suspicious is valid.

But why did you ask your son to go to the capital? How did His Majesty the Emperor know about his eldest son?

Zheng Zhifeng continued: "Anyway, no matter what, the eldest brother can accompany his nephew for two years. It is actually a good thing to let him go to Beijing after two years. At least, he has the title of a disciple of the emperor."

Zheng Zhilong said: "That's for sure. How can those poor people with the title of Emperor's disciple be compared with the children raised by His Majesty themselves? These are the real Emperor's disciples!"

Just as he finished proud, Zheng Zhilong said bitterly again: "But I am still worried that this is the way His Majesty can check and balance us. This little child has become a proton. I am a father, hey!"

Zheng Zhifeng thought for a while, but smiled and said, "Brother is really a mystery to the authorities. If you don't say anything else, do you have the intention to rebel now?"

Zheng Zhilong jumped up in fear when he heard this. Then he remembered that there was no one on the boat, and there was nothing to worry about. He glared at Zheng Zhifeng and said, "That's a big deal! What a good life now. Except for Liu Xiang, the grandchildren on the sea, who are ignorant of death, should not look up to our brothers at a high glance?

And didn’t the military supervisor of our fleet say that if our brothers died for the country’s war, they will not only be able to enter the Martyrs’ Temple to enjoy the incense of eternal times, but also benefit from the family.”

After sighing, Zheng Zhilong continued, "If it were the past, this Daming seems unstable. There is no good idea for the Tartars in Liaodong to be so rampant. Instead, they have lost their territory again and again. The officials from the court are busy corruption and not doing serious business.

But since His Majesty ascended the throne, you can see what the Tartars in Liaodong have been harmed now.

The last time I went to Dongjiang to give Mao Wenlong some whale meat, the Dongjiang army, tsk, it was really a bird gun to replace cannons.

I heard from Mao Wenlong that they were all given the heads of Jiannu.

Besides, the imperial court has many first-rank senior officials and second-rank senior officials who have been cut down, and the people have lived a better life.

If we rebel again at this time, there is no chance! We should just think about fulfilling our loyalty to the country!"

Zheng Zhifeng then smiled and said, "That's the reason. We don't plan to rebel or something anyway. What's the difference between whether my nephew goes to the capital?"

After a pause, Zheng Zhifeng lowered his voice and said, "In my opinion, Your Majesty may be preparing for the Eastern Palace."

When Zheng Zhilong heard this, he was shocked and angry and said, "What nonsense! Your Majesty is now in full swing in spring and autumn, why do you need to plan for the Eastern Palace?"

Zheng Zhifeng said: "No matter how young your Majesty is, you must have a son here sooner or later, but look at what the nobles are like now?

In addition to the British Duke, how many other good ones are there? When Xu Da Chang Yuchun was founded, how many more are there in the Ming Dynasty?

Our Majesty takes ten steps, probably because he thinks that the person who is easy to use now may not listen to the words of the Eastern Palace in the future. What if someone is not good at fighting and then turns to the civil servant, wouldn’t your Majesty be worse?

I guess if it weren't for this, Your Majesty might not have had this idea. To put it bluntly, my nephew should be the backup plan left by Your Majesty to the Eastern Palace."

Zheng Zhilong was about to nod his head in agreement, but suddenly said, "What a backhand, the prince of the Ming Dynasty has not yet established, Your Majesty wants to keep a backhand?"

Zheng Zhilong’s words were actually a polite statement. To put it bluntly, Emperor Chongzhen now doesn’t even have a son, so he has become a crown prince? I’ve thought too much about it.

Zheng Zhifeng said, "There is a princess now in the Ming Dynasty! What does this mean? After a few years, will this prince still have a matter of time?"

After saying that, Zheng Zhifeng said terrified again: "What if His Majesty looks forward to his nephew, Princess Daming..."

Zheng Zhilong said: "Don't you fart, is it a good man who does something like Princess Shang? At that time, you cannot lead the army and fight or fight, and officials with real power cannot do it. There is a big meaning in life!"

Zheng Zhifeng opposed, "You haven't seen your Majesty's actions after ascending the throne? Basically, they are heading towards the path of a strong man, and the relatives may not have no chance to make a comeback in the future. Besides, who can tell the truth about what happened in the future?"

After saying that, Zheng Zhifeng sneered again: "Do you think those officials don't want to make trouble for Your Majesty now, and even let Your Majesty fall into the water like Emperor Zhengde and the late emperor?

It’s not that I don’t want to, but that I don’t dare! Your Majesty has the power of the military, who dares?
Chapter completed!
