Chapter 652 Tian Chuansong's doubts
"You have to know that my wife is a Japanese, and it's great for me to be a shogun."
After hearing this, Zheng Zhihu's eyes suddenly lit up and his face became excited.
He turned to look at Zheng Zhilong and asked in disbelief: "Brother, do you want to be a shogun?"
"Is there anything wrong?" Zheng Zhilong spread his hands and said, "There is no more suitable person than me, right? I am from Daming, and I have a status and identity in Hirado Island. I can get their support. Why can't I make some progress in this regard?"
"Is there anything wrong with being a shogun? As long as the Ming Dynasty is willing to support me, it is certainly OK, and I believe that the Ming Dynasty will be willing to support me." Zheng Zhilong said with a smile: "At that time, our family will be truly prosperous."
Zheng Zhihu believes that if he can really do that, he will be successful.
Although my family is very developed and the fleet is huge, everyone knows that wandering on the sea is like duckweed, and it is easy to be killed without a foundation.
It is different to be a foreign shogun. Some people have money and territory, and there is support from the Ming Dynasty court behind it. Maybe one day, my family will have a day of founding a country.
Thinking of this, it’s impossible not to be excited. Zheng Zhihu was very excited and looked at Zheng Zhilong and asked, “Brother, what am I going to do?”
"Nothing needs to be done." Zheng Zhilong shook his head and said, "What we have to do now is to wait quietly and cooperate with the Ming officials to do things well. Let's talk about other things later. This war has not started yet, so we should not participate too much."
"Okay, I understand." Zheng Zhihu nodded and said, "Do you need to prepare some gifts for that eunuch? Didn't it mean that eunuchs like money?"
"Let's talk about this matter when I go over." Zheng Zhilong shook his head and said.
Compared to the Ming army, Zheng Zhilong was not worried at all. He was not afraid that if he could not do this, he would die on Hirado Island because it was impossible, so he had the ability to escape here.
Although it is not necessarily possible to overturn it, it is no problem to escape.
On the other side, Matsuura Dairo was sitting on a chair, looking at his subordinates in front of him and asked, "You said, Zheng Zhilong is back, and there is also an official from the Ming Dynasty?"
"Yes, lord." The subordinate said quickly: "The news just sent by the dock."
Matsuura Dairo was helpless and was silent for a moment and said, "Don't say anything, don't do anything, send someone to stare at them, don't alert the snake, do you understand?"
His subordinates quickly said, "I understand."
He waved his hand, and after his subordinates left, Matsuura Dairo sat down.
He also had some doubts, really didn't know what Zheng Zhilong asked the people from the Ming Dynasty to do.
You know, I am not that good here. The Japanese pirates were talking about them back then. They have been doing business for many years, fighting and fighting, and they have always been like this. But the Ming Dynasty has never been to Japan, let alone Hirado Island. This time, Zheng Zhilong brought people back, which is definitely not an ordinary person.
Matsuura Dairo was not that worried. He was the lord of the Hirado clan and did not believe that anyone could do anything to him on his territory, even Zheng Zhilong.
But I still have a worry. After all, my relationship with Zheng Zhilong has not been that good in the past two years. As Zheng Zhilong becomes stronger and stronger, there are more and more conflicts.
However, Zheng Zhilong has been slowly changing, and everyone can be said to be together and parting well, and their relationship is also good. So Matsuura Dairo doesn't really believe what Zheng Zhilong will do.
At this time, Zheng Zhilong and Zheng Zhihu finished discussing. Zheng Zhilong came to the backyard and met his wife Tian Chuansong.
Seeing Zheng Zhilong coming back, Tian Chuansong bowed slightly and said respectfully: "You are back."
Zheng Zhilong nodded, walked to Tian Chuansong, reached out to support her, looked up and down and said, "It looks good. Have you lived a comfortable life recently?"
"It's okay." Takawa Matsu nodded and said.
"Where is my son?" Zheng Zhilong asked.
"Practice martial arts in the back," said Takawa Matsu.
"Then let's go and have a look." Zheng Zhilong nodded, reached out and pulled Tian Chuansong to walk back. The couple went to see their son together.
Fang Zhenghua sat on the chair with a expressionless face, reaching out to hit the table.
"Father-in-law, isn't it good for us to wait like this?" A guard whispered beside Fang Zhenghua, "Are you supposed to do something? I always feel that Zheng Zhilong has bad intentions."
He turned his head and looked at the guard Zhang Zhao, who was in his thirties. He was from the Royal Army and was sent by Zhu Youxiao to Founder.
It is said that Zhang Zhao's men are very famous among the personal army and have performed many tasks. It is unknown what kind of tasks they are, but they must be masters.
"Don't be anxious." Fang Zhenghua looked at Zhang Zhao and said with a smile: "What can he do if he has a good intention? It's just killing us, so what's the benefit of him?"
"After doing things, people always seek benefits. They won't do things that don't work. Don't worry, even if things can't be done this time, our safety will not be problematic. Needless to say, Zheng Zhilong will definitely not let us get into trouble. So we should eat and drink."
"You can't do this." Zhang Zhao shook his head directly and said with a firm face: "I'll take people out to check it out tonight."
"It's better not to alert the snake." Fang Zhenghua said helplessly: "Once the surprise attack is alert, it will cause trouble for the next thing."
"But if I don't look at it, I feel unsure." Zhang Zhao said helplessly: "Once something happens, we can't leave. I want to touch the situation of their guards first and see where there is a ship. If there is an emergency, we can grab the ship and leave directly."
"No need." Fang Zhenghua said: "We just wait here, and they will send us away respectfully in the end. Don't worry."
Seeing that Zhang Zhao was still about to speak, Fang Zheng's face sank, stared at him and said, "Do as I said."
"But what should I do if there is really danger? Your Majesty wants me to protect my father-in-law's safety." Zhang Zhao stared at his eyes, as if he had no intention of listening to Fang Zhenghua's words, and continued to stammer his neck.
"I am not afraid of death for the sake of the Ming Dynasty." Fang Zhenghua was helpless. Although he wanted to beat Zhang Zhao, it was not possible. This person was not under his control.
If he really dares to hit Zhang Zhao, that would be a big deal. So he could only persuade him.
These people are really hard to deal with when they are stubborn.
Zhang Zhao looked at Fang Zhenghua and continued with his neck in his arms, "But my task is to protect my father-in-law's safety."
"Don't worry, I'm very safe." Fang Zhenghua stared at Zhang Zhao and said, "If you say that again, I'll ask them to send you back, and you don't have to follow me."
Zhang Zhao's face instantly flushed and he was helpless. In the end, he could only say in a muffled voice: "I will definitely report to the above after I go back."
"Okay," Fang Zheng smiled immediately and said, "We will go with you at that time."
After the two finished talking, they didn't stay for long, and someone came to invite them soon.
The welcome dinner is ready, and Fang Zhenghua can go over for dinner.
When he arrived in front, there were plenty of food and drinks. Zheng Zhilong even invited his wife Tian Chuansong to accompany him.
The meal was eaten by the host and both sides talked about a friendly atmosphere.
After dinner, Fang Zhenghua was sent back.
After the person was sent back, Zheng Zhilong also accompanied his wife to the back.
After the two sat down, Tian Chuansong brought water to wash Zheng Zhilong's feet. This was something they had been doing for so many years.
"Is this eunuch from the Ming Dynasty very not easy?" Tian Chuansong asked while rubbing Zheng Zhilong's feet, raising his head and asking.
The Takawa family can be regarded as the property of the Matsuura family and the owner of Hirado Island.
Takawa Matsu grew up on Hirado Island. His father died early. He followed his mother to remarry a blacksmith in Fujian and later to Zheng Zhilong.
Tian Chuansong has been very sensible since childhood, and when he grows up, he is even more sensitive and has a very accurate judgment on everything.
In Zheng Zhilong's attitude towards Fang Zhenghua, Tian Chuanmatsu could see that. After all, Zheng Zhilong's strength has increased sharply in recent years and he doesn't have to give anyone too much face. He is even now moving out of Hirado Island to go out and work alone.
Under such circumstances, Zheng Zhilong was actually very polite to the eunuch of the Ming Dynasty. How could Tian Chuansong not be curious?
"The eunuch who is very favored by the Emperor of Ming Dynasty." Zheng Zhilong said slowly: "You can speak with the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. This time when you come here, he is the special envoy of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty."
"What are you talking about?" Tian Chuansong looked up at Zheng Zhilong and asked.
"They want to fight Japan." Zheng Zhilong said directly without hiding his wife: "The fleet has arrived outside. If it weren't for me, they might have started the war."
Tian Chuansong's hands shivered, and subconsciously grabbed Zheng Zhilong's feet and asked, "Is this true?"
"Of course it's true." Zheng Zhilong said with a wry smile: "While halfway, I met their fleet, but was defeated, lost more than 60 warships, and I was captured by them. If it weren't for the Ming Dynasty, I would have lost my life now."
"Then what do they want you to do?" Tian Chuansong looked at Zheng Zhilong and said with a little fear in his tone: "Do you want to be a guide? Or do you want you to work with them inside and outside?"
For Takawa Matsu, this is her home, and Hirado belongs to their home. If Zheng Zhilong and the Ming people attack Hirado together, Takawa Matsu may not have chosen any way.
Her expression was very serious, and she stared at Zheng Zhilong with a burning gaze, hoping that he could give herself an answer.
Even the hands holding Zheng Zhilong's feet began to exert force unconsciously.
