Borrow the day to change the day

After Zheng Zhilong finished speaking, seeing Ren Kejian Ichiro staring at him blankly, he couldn't help laughing and said: "The new Dutch governor Putmans knew that he was captured by my Ming Dynasty on the spot and beheaded at the entrance of Caishi in the capital for public display."

Ren Ke Jianichiro was hit again, it was impossible for Zheng Zhilong to make such a joke with him, it must be true.

He immediately remembered the demeanor of the Ming army that he saw in the capital of the Ming Kingdom that day, and suddenly realized that the Ming army he saw back then was not the strongest army in the Ming Kingdom.The governor Putmans who was able to defeat the Dutch and capture them alive must be more powerful than the Ming army.And another conclusion can be drawn from another aspect, the navy of the Ming army is also very powerful.

Thinking of this, Hitoko Kenichiro decided to report this new discovery to Tokugawa Hidetada and Tokugawa Iemitsu as soon as possible.

It took him a while before he came back to his senses, and continued to lead Zheng Zhilong to the embassy.

They walked through the town of Shitamachi where civilians lived, and walked in the Yamanote area.It is lined with trees and has a beautiful environment. It is the political center of Edo Castle.The residential area of ​​the daimyo and the banner, that is, the residential area of ​​the senior samurai, and the embassy are all in this area.

When he was about to arrive at the embassy, ​​Ren Kejian Ichiro couldn't help but asked, "Yiguan, why are you here as an imperial envoy this time?"

Zheng Zhilong spit out two words lightly: "Buy the island."

"What? Buy an island?" Renke Jianichiro suspected that he had heard wrong.

Zheng Zhilong looked at him, looked at his face full of doubts, and repeated again: "It is to buy the island. In order to respect General Tokugawa, that's why I, Da Ming, paid for the land of Ezo."

This time I heard it clearly, and Renke Jianichiro asked again: "The Ezo land is far away from Daming, and it is a barren land, why buy it?"

"For the purpose of exiling and building captives." After Zheng Zhilong replied, looking at Ren Ke Jianichiro's expression, he realized that today was the first time he saw this old acquaintance's expression full of shock, and it was a continuous shock expression that made his heart ache. My heart is very enjoyable.

Needless to say, Renke Jianichiro once again made Zheng Zhilong fulfill his wish, and he stammered to confirm: "Exile, exile Jianlu?"

You must know that the Liaodong land of Ming Dynasty has been occupied by Jianlu for a long time. Last year, they even sent envoys to invite Japan to ally with them and jointly deal with Ming Dynasty.At that time, the envoy of Jianlu explained how the country was so weak and how it was bullied by their big gold.Now, in the blink of an eye, Jianlu will be exiled by the Ming Kingdom!

"Yes, exile Jianlu." Zheng Zhilong said again with satisfaction.

Ren Ke Jianichiro believed that he heard correctly what Zheng Zhilong said this time, and secretly thought it was dangerous.If he had agreed to Jianlu's request for an alliance last year and had really shown hostility to the Ming Dynasty or sent troops to the Ming Dynasty, I don't know if Japan would be wiped out, but the Tokugawa shogunate would definitely be in trouble.

In the blink of an eye, the Ming country punched Jianlu and kicked the Netherlands, one country against two opponents, and it was so easy, really, really too powerful!

But immediately Renke Jianichiro had a new question: "Da Ming is so powerful, why did you let you roam the sea?"

Zheng Zhilong didn't expect him to ask such a question, so he was slightly taken aback before answering him: "Because of Zhongxinghou!"

During Zheng Zhilong's time in the capital, he already had a deep understanding of Daming's transformation, knowing that all of this was made stronger by the appearance of one person, Zhongxinghou.

"Marquis of Zhongxing?" Renke Jianichiro had vaguely heard of this name.

"You don't need to worry about it. Now I, Ming Dynasty, have taken a fancy to the land of Ezo in order to exile many Jianren. But because the Matsumae clan built a castle there, and in order to respect the shogun, I decided to pay for it." Zheng Zhilong was a little displeased. If you get impatient, tell Ren Ke Jianichiro directly, this is the business.

Seeing that Kenichiro Hitoko heard what he said, he said "Oh", and then said again: "I am very familiar with Japan, so don't use any excuses to fool me, arrange for me to meet the two Tokugawa generals as soon as possible. Convey the meaning of my Daming."

Of course Renke Jianichiro knew that Zheng Zhilong was familiar with Japan, so he said repeatedly: "Okay, I will report to the general right away."

Zheng Zhilong thought for a while, and then said to Ren Kejianichiro: "I want to remind you of one thing, please tell the shogun that the Matsumae clan built a castle in Ezo, and was named the owner of Ezo by the emperor. I have a good relationship with Toyotomi Hideyoshi, understand?"

Renke Jianichiro can be regarded as Tokugawa Hidetada's confidant, so he naturally knew the meaning behind Zheng Zhilong's reminder, he nodded knowingly and said: "Okay, I will definitely convey it to my general."

At this time, a group of people had already reached the gate of the embassy, ​​and the two ended their conversation.

After Renke Jianichiro arranged for Zheng Zhilong to stay, he said goodbye to Zheng Zhilong, "I'm going to report to the two generals right now, I should have news soon."

"Okay, let's go." Zheng Zhilong said while waving his hand.

Renke Jianichiro bowed to Zheng Zhilong before turning around to leave.

But when he turned around and saw Jin Yiwei standing on one side, he suddenly remembered something, and turned his head to remind Zheng Zhilong: "Officer, be careful of the fire."

Zheng Zhilong was stunned for a moment by his nonsensical words, then he immediately came to his senses and said with a smile: "Could it be that you also hid the envoy of Jianlu, and I'm afraid that I will learn to be an imperial envoy and burn it again? "

When Renke Jianichiro heard this, he quickly waved his hands and said, "Where, where is there any Jianlu envoy, don't worry."

Then bowed again, and then hurriedly exited the embassy, ​​so as not to say the wrong thing again.

The sun slowly slanted to the west from the top of the head. In the center of Yamanote, there was a very large house in the middle, and there was a house that was built of cement.There were only two people inside, and they were listening to Kenichiro Renko's report.

After listening to Renko Kenichiro's report, Tokugawa Hidetada and Tokugawa Iemitsu were speechless for a long time. Every news that Renko Kenichiro reported was very important information.

After digesting the news, Tokugawa Hidetada began to teach his son a lesson, showing his foresight.

Tokugawa Iemitsu admired Jiang for being old and hot. If it weren't for his father, it would be hard to say whether his rule would still be stable.

None of those big names are fuel-efficient lamps, and now they have entered a critical period of the Tokugawa shogunate's rule, so don't dare to be surprised.

As for the purchase of Ezo Island proposed by the imperial envoy of the Ming Dynasty, there is nothing to discuss.That kind of wild land, the Ming Dynasty wanted it, and it just gave it to it.In this way, it can also be tested whether Matsumae Fan is loyal to him.

Based on this idea, the Tokugawa shogunate quickly met with Zheng Zhilong, and the two sides discussed the price of the sale, and the deal was quickly concluded.

Zheng Zhilong was originally a businessman, he not only bought Ezodi with a boatload of different glass products he brought, but also exchanged a lot of sulfur back to Daming.

He went home once before leaving, planning to take his wife and children back to the capital.

The Tokugawa shogunate mobilized troops to prevent the Matsumae domain from resisting the demolition, so it was busy.
