Lu Xiangsheng was furious when he heard this, killed someone, and then came to tell you, this is simply a naked show off and a slap in the face!

However, the so-called stretching out his hand and not hitting the smiling person, and Lu Xiang was promoted to a civil official, his self-cultivation was not bad, he tried to suppress his anger, stared at him, and said coldly: "Speak!" ”

Philot could feel that the Earl of the Ming Kingdom was very angry, and his attitude became more and more respectful, and he hurriedly said: "Dear Earl, a few days ago, we found out that the Ming under our rule had colluded with the local pirates, and after interrogation, we learned that they colluded together to try to rebel. And to such rebels there is no forgiveness as the law of your land. However, we admire your country, so I specially came to inform you so as not to have unnecessary misunderstandings! ”

The word "rebellion" was an absolute taboo in ancient times, and it was not allowed by any official.

However, for Lu Xiangsheng, he has suppressed the rebels, also co-opted the rebels, and even led the rebels to beat the rebels, and lived and died together. Therefore, for the so-called "rebels", he will not be killed with a stick.

Hearing this at this time, Lu Xiangsheng was stunned for a moment, and still shouted coldly: "Why did the Luzon Ming people collude with pirates to rebel, what is the reason, is there any evidence?" ”

This time, it was Filot's turn to be stunned. Because once before, as long as you said this, the officials of the Ming Kingdom said that it was so, so it is no wonder that you would do this.

When he came to his senses, Philot hurriedly took out a letter from his bosom, respectfully handed it with both hands, and at the same time said, "Your Excellency the Count, this is a letter from our Spanish Governor in Luzon, with the signature of His Excellency the Governor of Luzon. ”

Seeing him like this, his own personal guard stepped forward and forwarded the letter to the translator beside Lu Xiangsheng, and then the translator whispered the content of the letter to Lu Xiangsheng.

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he kept suppressing his anger, and seemed to be a little unable to suppress it, and shouted: "How can there be evidence in this letter? It's all your words! What the officer wants is evidence......"

Before he could finish speaking, Anders, the Portuguese leader standing on the side, flashed out and respectfully reminded Lu Xiangsheng: "My lord, I dare to conclude that these Spaniards are lying. The first few times they slaughtered the Ming people in Luzon, they were all greedy for the wealth of the Ming people, and they didn't take the lives of the Ming people seriously at all, and they didn't take the Ming Empire seriously. ”

With such a good opportunity, of course he was going to talk. What's more, this time, he felt that he was telling the truth, and his voice was even louder.

As soon as Filot saw him and heard what he said, he immediately became anxious, and immediately shouted: "You fart!" ”

After finishing speaking, he immediately explained to Lu Xiangsheng respectfully: "Dear Earl, they Portuguese are our Spanish courtiers, but they are rebelling, and they are also rebellious, his words are absolutely slanderous!" ”

Feeling the grim situation of this trip, Filote had unconsciously used his acting skills while talking, pretending to be indignant.

However, not to mention that the emperor has made it clear that Portugal and Portugal are both brotherly states, just this matter, Lu Xiangsheng also has a plan in his heart, and immediately shouted, pointed at Filot with his hand and shouted: "This official already knows that in your Luzon, there have been three massacres of my Ming people alone, and this is the fourth. Don't you tell this official, it's all our Ming people who are arrogant and undisciplined, and they have to collude with pirates every time to try to rebel? ”

Hearing this, Filot's heart sank. This Count of the Ming Kingdom did not care about the rebellion of the Portuguese, but analyzed it in connection with the previous few times, which made it a little difficult for him to distinguish.

Because from the perspective of common sense, it is difficult to explain the rebellion of the Ming people!

Thinking of this, his forehead sweated, and his attitude became more and more respectful, and he bent down and replied: "Dear Earl, you are so clever, and it is true, so we are compelled to kill him." Look, there's still the sincerity of our Governor......"

Speaking of this, he hurriedly took out another letter from his arms and handed it over with both hands.

Lu Xiangsheng saw that he couldn't say anything useful, but he was just blindly stiff-mouthed, and he could roughly conclude the truth of the facts, but when he suddenly heard him say this, as a Confucian disciple who had been cultivated for many years, he still suppressed his anger and waved his hand with a cold face.

The guard stepped forward again to take the letter, and the translator relayed the contents of the letter.

This letter, in the name of the Spanish governor in Luzon, said that in order not to damage the friendship with the Ming Empire, although those Ming people rebelled, they were still willing to compensate some silver, the amount was 10,000 silver dollars. In addition, he also said that as long as the Ming people go to Luzon again, they will be in peace and keep to themselves, then they will give all kinds of preferential treatment.

Before the translator finished speaking, Lu Xiangsheng had already interrupted angrily: "Enough! ”

Then, he stared at Philott and shouted: "From the beginning to the end, this official has not seen any evidence of your so-called Ming people's rebellion!" As far as this official knows, you also used this set of words when you massacred my Ming people for the third time, and now you use it again? Is it easy to be an official? ”

After a pause, his voice was a little higher, and he could see that his anger could not be suppressed, and he shouted again: "Even if my Ming people rebel, so many times, you must have forced him to rebel." Otherwise, when the latecomers hear that you have no scruples about killing people, how will they rebel? In addition, even if my Ming people rebelled, how could you kill them all, why didn't you notify me and let me deal with it? ”

Speaking of this, Lu Xiangsheng sneered and said: "This official is expected to say that Erzhi's statement is a quibble, trying to deceive the official!" Come on! ”

When his guards heard this, they immediately responded in unison: "The subordinates are here!" ”

Feeling Lu Xiangsheng's anger, feeling the hostility of the people around him, and the schadenfreude of the Portuguese, the cold sweat on Filote's forehead could no longer be stopped, and it was dripping down.

But at this time, he didn't bother to wipe it. He really didn't expect that the words that worked well in the past would be useless this time, what went wrong?

Hearing Lu Xiangsheng's words, it seemed that he was going to deal with him, and Philot was anxious, and suddenly said loudly: "Honorable Earl, please keep your senses!" If you do something bad and damage the friendship between your two countries, your emperor will probably be angry! ”

There is no way, now he can only use such rhetoric, using the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom to suppress the Ming official in front of him who is not easy to be moved.

Hearing this, Lu Xiangsheng couldn't help but be even more angry. He didn't expect that this Xiyi would be so hateful and deal with him one by one.

For Emperor Chongzhen, he actually knew very well in his heart that how could the Ming Dynasty have friendship with these Xiyi, and the emperor had already clearly told him that he would compete with these Xiyi to dominate the world.

Therefore, this Philot moved out of Emperor Chongzhen, which angered Lu Xiangsheng even more, but when he was about to speak, suddenly there was a sound of hurried footsteps outside, and soon a personal guard flashed in, clasped his hands into fists, and said to Lu Xiangsheng: "My lord, the Jingshi has come to the angel." ”

When Lu Xiangsheng heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned, because calculating the time, the urgent report he sent about the massacre of the Ming people in Luzon had just arrived in Beijing, why did the holy decree arrive at this time?

He didn't know what was going on, so he had to accept the order as soon as possible, so he ordered his subordinates to watch these Xiyi, and hurriedly went to receive the order.

In the lobby, there were a few Lu Xiangsheng's personal guards guarding it, Anders looked at the anxious Philott, and couldn't help but feel extremely happy, and couldn't help but stepped forward and mocked: "You Spaniards are really stupid, thinking that the Ming Empire is as easy to be deceived by you as the natives of other colonies, and you are playing with them?" Hehe, wait and see, you're going to be out of luck! ”

Hearing him say this, Filot's face couldn't help but be a little ugly, but he was not to be outdone, so he couldn't help but retort: "Don't say anything else, the Emperor of the Ming Kingdom will definitely be very sensitive to rebellion." Those Ming rebelled, which was not only allowed by us Spaniards, but also by the Ming Emperor. How this thing goes, keep your dog's eyes open and look at it. ”

Speaking of this, seeing Anders' undisguised disbelief and schadenfreude, Philott couldn't help but shout at him again: "Also, you Portuguese are also rebellious, and I'm afraid that the Emperor of Ming doesn't know about this matter." If I knew that you were also rebellious, this would never be allowed, at least it would expel you! ”

Hearing this, Anders laughed happily, laughing so much that Philott was a little dumbfounded, he didn't feel that this was a funny thing!

After seeing Anders laugh, he said to him in a show-off tone: "Silly, you don't know yet, then I can tell you that the Ming Emperor not only knows, but also supports our Portugal's cause of resisting your evil Spanish rule, and has formed a brotherly state with our Portugal." Da Ming is a brother, and I am a brother in Portugal. In the future, anyone who dares to bully me Portugal will send troops to protect me. ”

After finishing speaking, he looked at Philot with a smug face, looking at the look of shock that he expected, to be honest, Anders at this time, his heart was very happy.

With the backing of the powerful Ming Empire, from now on, Portugal is still afraid of anything, not only Spain, but also France or something, all of them are not afraid, it is estimated that in a few decades, Portugal can become the hegemon of Europe!

Needless to say, when Filot heard the news, he was stunned for a long time before coming back to his senses. This news was really unexpected to him. If you say, he still has a trace of confidence before. I think that the Ming Navy Division is mainly a large number of people, and as for warships, artillery and so on, they are actually still despised by them.

But now, the relationship between the Portuguese and the Ming Kingdom has been improved to this point, and the warships and artillery of the Ming Kingdom will definitely be greatly improved, and it is likely that they will be on the same level as them.

He was thinking about it, when he suddenly saw Lu Xiangsheng striding in, and when he was about to speak, he heard Lu Xiangsheng shouting: "Come on, take him down!" ”
