????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of Zheng Zhaozuo said, but they are arguing over how far to give in.
As a result, the discussion lasted until late at night, and no one came up with Ding Mao. In the end, we had to reluctantly decide to let Shang Hongde and Zheng Zhaozuo serve as representatives to labor in order to find out the tone of the Ming Dynasty.
I heard that the king was tired a long time ago, so I was sure.
When they came out of the palace, it was still stormy outside. The two princes went to Shuri Castle, while the Zheng family and his son returned to Kume Village and parted ways outside the torii gate.
By this time, the Zheng family had already arrived with their carriage. In such stormy weather, riding in a sedan chair was definitely not as comfortable as a carriage.
The father and son got into the carriage, and hot soup and snacks were prepared in the carriage.
After eating snacks and drinking soup, the cold and hungry father and son finally regained some strength.
"Why did my father stop me just now and not let the child explain?" Zheng Zong finally couldn't help but asked: "Then Mr. Zhao is clearly sowing discord!"
"You are bleeding from the Ming Dynasty. Can you clear the suspicion if you explain it?" Zheng Zhaozuo held the tea cup, feeling the warmth from his palms, and said faintly: "Even if you can clear it, you really have to go out in this fast wind." When it rains, do you want to have nothing to do with Ming Dynasty, which protects us from wind and rain?"
"The Jiangnan Group cannot represent the Ming Dynasty." Zheng He was still a little angry. He was a passionate young man who was born and raised here, so he naturally had no good impression of the invaders.
"They can represent the Ming Dynasty!" Zheng Zhaozuo suddenly said with a stern look: "Are you confused? When did the government, navy and navy arrive in Ryukyu, but the Jiangnan Group's fleet has already arrived. Who do you think can represent the Ming Dynasty better?!"
"This" Zheng Hao looked at his father in shock. This was an angle he had never thought of.
"Have you not learned a lesson from this incident?" Zheng Zhaozuo said in a deep voice: "We have clearly found out that the culprit is Weng Jisong. But the king still blatantly favors the Weng family for the sake of the overall situation. What does this mean? ? Outsiders are outsiders after all. No matter how good our acting is, if something happens, it will be us who are sacrificed!"
¡°¡¡± Zheng Hao nodded silently. After the incident, he was under tremendous pressure. Not only did the people at Jiangnan Commercial Station blame him, the king also immediately dismissed his Naha official position, and he has not yet been reinstated.
"So don't betray your bloodline and always stand with the Ming Dynasty." Zheng Zhaozuo said with a sneer: "Those selfish and short-sighted guys in Shuri City deserve to be punished!"
"What if the king files a petition against the emperor in the future? Ryukyu is a country without conquests. The imperial court may punish the Jiangnan Group" Zheng Hao was still worried.
"They have no chance." Zheng Zhaozuo said lightly: "This is our value to Mr. Zhao!"
There was another thunderous sound outside the car, and the white electric light made Zheng Zhaozuo's old face look particularly ferocious.
??~~
Two days later, the storm subsided on the sea, and the Zheng family and his son, monk Hongde, took Laojun's fleet northward.
With a favorable wind, we soon arrived at Amami Bay.
The southbound fleet is still in Amami Bay. Originally, Mr. Zhao planned to go south to Naha Port, but the sudden typhoon disrupted his plan, so he had to take shelter first.
Fortunately, Amami Bay is an excellent haven and the fleet was unscathed.
The police officers temporarily set up a camp in the lee of the shore, and finally everyone was fine. However, everyone was very nervous due to the typhoon defense for several consecutive days, so they did not set off immediately after the weather cleared, but rested in place for two days before proceeding.
In the Age of Discovery, whether in combat or navigation, one must have enough patience.
The labor fleet was stopped by a guarded speedboat at the mouth of the bay. The police officers prohibited them from entering the port according to regulations, so they only used a speedboat to transport the Zheng family and his son, monk Hongde, to the camp. As for the labor supplies, there will naturally be ships to receive them
On the temporary dock, Tang Baolu received the news and came out to greet the three people with a smile.
He and Zheng Zou had become brothers and warmly invited them to his place for tea.
Shang Hongde didn't want to waste words with a businessman, so he declined, saying that he was in a hurry to see the king and really didn't want to have tea.
"Okay, you take him to see King Shang Yuan." Tang Baolu asked someone to take him away first.
"Let's go." Seeing that the Zheng family and his son were still chatting and laughing with Tang Baolu, Shang Hongde urged.
"You can just go by yourself." Tang Baolu waved his hand impatiently.
Zheng Zhaozuo smiled apologetically at Shang Hongde.
Shang Hong Dexin said okay, he will send me away when he comes, so I won¡¯t go! He came here to monitor the Zheng family and his son to prevent them from betraying the country.
He also stood still and said with a smile: "Then I'm not in a hurry. I'm thirsty."?As long as each family has hostages in the hands of Jiangnan Group, they all have to flatter the Zheng family for one day.
"Second, as compensation, Naha Port and ten miles of land will be permanently transferred to Jiangnan Group. We will establish a Daming City here, and Zhongshan people can come and go freely, but Daming City will be fully managed by the city hall affiliated to Jiangnan Group and will not Bound by the laws of Zhongshan State." Tang Baolu raised his second finger and changed the topic:
"Of course, if Brother Zheng is interested, Brother Zheng can still serve as the mayor of Daming City, and the tax revenue can also be appropriately shared with Zhongshan State. As the young master often said, if we have money, we can make it together."
"That's great" Zheng Hao breathed a sigh of relief again, this way the backlash will be much smaller. He quickly changed his words and said, "Oh no, I mean I'll think about it."
"It should be." Tang Baolu raised a third finger and said: "Third, Zhongshan Kingdom will carry out reforms, remove all traces of Japanese influence, and conduct thorough Chineseization. Of course, Ryukyu's local traditions can be preserved, but after all Which ones belong to Japan and which ones belong to the mainland, I have to take the trouble of Shibo and the compatriots in Kume Village to identify them."
"Okay, I totally agree!" Zheng Zhaozuo said excitedly: "I have long been disgusted with the nondescript national customs and folk customs. If we rectify the source, it will benefit the future!"
"Fourth, in order to improve the overall quality of the Zhongshan Kingdom. All nobles who have not reached official age must go to schools run by the Jiangnan Group in Daming City." Tang Baolu finally raised his fourth finger and grinned: "Why? So, our young master is a very good person, right?" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
