Chapter 116: Overseas Temptation II
Tagawa's single name is a "pine" character.
The Tagawa clan's father was a member of the Hirado clan. That is, a samurai.
And when Zheng Zhilong was fighting in Japan, it was the end of the Warring States period in Japan, the samurai of this era. There are also some remnants of the Warring States period. As the only daughter of a samurai, although the Tagawa clan shows tenderness like water, he is not a person without ideas in his heart.
If she didn't have a position, she wouldn't have put Zheng Chenggong with Zheng Chenggong's younger brother, Tagawa Saemon in Japan.
Moreover, Zheng Chenggong is very filial to his mother because he gets together less and separates more because of his mother, after the Tagawa family took over from Japan, Zheng Chenggong is very filial to his mother, and many times, he doesn't listen to other people's words, but Zheng Chenggong will still think about his mother's words.
I don't know what Zheng Hongkui said to his sister-in-law, in short, Tian Chuan Song ordered someone to call Zheng Chenggong over.
Tagawa Matsu's residence in Heian Castle does not show a hint of Japanese style, and it looks like the room of an ordinary Han woman.
This is not only the reason for following the local customs, but also a sense of inferiority. Tagawa Matsu tried to dress up like a Han Chinese woman, so that everyone forgot the fact that she was born in Japan.
As soon as Zheng Chenggong entered his mother's room, he smelled a smell of sandalwood, and he knew that Tian Chuansong was chanting for Zheng Zhilong again.
Among the major events in the world, Zheng Zhilong's death has been a long time ago, but for Tian Chuansong, this matter may never be overcome.
"Mother," Zheng Chenggong saluted Tian Chuansong.
"Sit down." Tian Chuansong got up from the futon, and Zheng Chenggong hurriedly took a few steps forward and supported him.
Zheng Chenggong was brought from Japan by Zheng Zhilong since he was a child, and he didn't stay with Tagawa Matsu for long, so it was quite strange for their mother and son to get along with each other.
There seems to be a sense of restraint.
"Today, your fourth uncle came to me." Tagawa Matsu said.
Zheng Chenggong heard the sound of the strings and knew the meaning of elegance, and was about to speak, but was interrupted by Tian Chuansong and said: "My son is also a man, I never care about what you do." However, since your fourth uncle said it, I have to say something to you. ”
Zheng Chenggong said: "Mother, you speak. ”
Tagawa Matsu smiled slightly and said, "I remember when I was a child, I told you about the three highnesses of the Oda Palace, the Toyotomi Palace, and the Tokugawa Palace, right?" ”
Zheng Chenggong seemed to think of something, smiled slightly, and said, "The child still remembers." ”
From this point, it can be seen that Tagawa Matsu has some Japanese characteristics, if it is Chinese, he will never call Oda Nobunaga, Toyotomi Hideyoshi, Tokugawa Ieyasu, what is the temple. And when Zheng Chenggong left Tian Chuansong, he was only seven or eight years old.
For such a young child, Tagawa Matsu will talk about this
The matter of fighting and killing can be seen in the samurai temperament.
Tian Chuansong said: "Do you think, among these three, who is the most talented?" ”
Zheng Chenggong thought about it, but what he was thinking was not what Tagawa Matsu said when he was a child. The Zheng family has a business in Japan, and there are many Japanese samurai among the Zheng family's sailors. Zheng Chenggong still has to grasp the current situation in Japan, and now it is not far from the era of the three of them.
The final aftermath of Japan's Warring States period, the Osaka Summer Battle, was only fifty years ago.
It's hard for Zheng Chenggong to think about it.
Zheng Chenggong pondered for a moment and said, "It should be Oda Nobunaga." ”
Tagawa Matsu said: "Secondly? ”
Zheng Chenggong said: "Toyotomi Hideyoshi. It seems that just such an evaluation is a bit unsatisfying, and explains: "Oda Nobunaga is a genius, but Toyotomi Hideyoshi has never been free from the influence of Oda Nobunaga in his life, so naturally he waits for it." ”
Tagawa Matsu said, "Then why is the current shogunate owned by the Tokugawa family?" ”
Zheng Chenggong's heart moved, and he had vaguely guessed what Tian Chuansong wanted to say. Sure enough, Tian Chuansong said: "You have a strong temperament, but sometimes you can't call it a mistake when you take a step back, Lao Ziyun: Weakness is better than strength." You know all these roads, I won't say more, but you should also go to see your fourth uncle, after your father left, he has always supported you, and you must not chill the hearts of the elders. ”
Zheng Chenggong said: "The child understands. ”
Tian Chuansong said: "You don't keep you, go about your business." ”
"Yes." After Zheng Chenggong saluted, he slowly retreated.
After he left Tian Chuansong's courtyard, he sighed slightly and said, "Go to the fourth uncle." ”
Zheng Hongkui was already waiting for Zheng Chenggong.
Zheng Chenggong and Zheng Hongkui retreated, and Zheng Chenggong immediately bowed to Zheng Hongkui and said, "My nephew has acted recklessly, please forgive the fourth uncle." ”
"Well said, well said." Zheng Hongkui helped Zheng Chenggong up and said: "Among the juniors of the Zheng family, either they don't have long brains, or they are just businessmen, I have long known that the person who can make the Zheng family's business prosperous is you." ”
Zheng Chenggong said: "My nephew doesn't dare to be. ”
Zheng Hongkui said: "Da Mu, don't think that the defeat of Nanjing is a big deal, the losses are all the newly recruited soldiers in the past two years, my Zheng family's old team is still there, this land of Fujian is still there, and naturally there will be a comeback." ”
"And you are defeated in this battle, otherwise both parties will not come to my Zheng family."
When Zheng Chenggong heard this, he said: "Please forgive my nephew for being rude, my father is not in the same place, and my nephew doesn't want to see the people of the Hong family in Ping'an City." ”
In such a situation, the Qing court would not let go of the Zheng family, and the person they sent was selected by Hong Chengchou, for a very simple reason
Shan is a native of Fujian, and he knows the situation in Fujian best.
Zheng Hongkui said: "Okay, good, the revenge of the eldest brother is also my revenge, naturally I can't help but revenge, but you always have to say your thoughts, so can I support you?" ”
Zheng Hongkui naturally didn't say anything about not avenging Zheng Zhilong, after all, the Zheng family was pulled up by Zheng Zhilong, and several of Zheng Zhilong's brothers were pulled up by the eldest brother, and it was not much worse to say that the eldest brother was like a father. It's just that Zheng Hongkui wants to leave some leeway for the Zheng family.
Even if he looked down on Hong Chengchou for 100,000, he kept Hong Chengchou's messenger.
Of course, Zheng Hongkui didn't want to do such a thing, he just knew where Hong Chengchou's people were hiding and where they were hiding.
Zheng Chenggong said: "Zhang Xuan gave his nephew a way out. Immediately, Zheng Chenggong told Zheng Hongkui about Zhang Xuan's plan to seal the country overseas, Zheng Hongkui's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he said: "Your Majesty has a deep affection for my Zheng family. ”
As soon as Zheng Chenggong heard it, he knew that Zheng Hongkui had already entered the set. He immediately knew that Zhang Xuan was painting cakes, and I was afraid that many people in the Zheng family would not be able to resist it.
Zheng Hongkui said: "Nephew, do you want to agree to come down?" ”
Zheng Chenggong said: "Your Majesty is so mindful, and my nephew can't be ignorant. Naturally willing to drive for His Majesty. Zheng Chenggong said this, but he had other ideas in his heart. Even overseas, Zheng Chenggong never wants to be confined to one or two islands.
Now the Qing army cannot be defeated in one day or two. This period of time is Zheng Chenggong's opportunity, even if he is a bearded guest. You can't just be an island owner, at least you have to be a South Sea overlord.
"Zhang Xuan can be the emperor on land, can't I be the emperor on the sea?" Zheng Chenggong said secretly in his heart.
When Zheng Hongkui heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart and said, "How are you going to show your intentions?" ”
Zheng Chenggong heard that Zheng Hongkui seemed to have something to say, and said, "What does the fourth uncle mean?" ”
Zheng Hongkui flicked his beard slightly, and said: "It just so happens that I have a good idea here, have you heard that Your Majesty is going to ascend the throne?" ”
Zheng Chenggong said: "What does the fourth uncle mean to persuade in? ”
Zheng Hongkui said: "Exactly, I heard that Guo Yushi said that Your Majesty is ready for everything, just waiting for your persuasion." In this matter, we must not lose the hope of Your Majesty. ”
Zheng Chenggong said: "My nephew understands. ”
Since Zheng Chenggong decided, he acted quite quickly, and immediately summoned Chen Ding, asked Chen Ding to write a letter of persuasion, and made Chen Ding a messenger. Take the risk of walking the Yangtze River waterway. Now the Qing army has begun to establish the Yangtze River Naval Division, although it is a little immature, but the Yangtze River, after all, is their territory.
The Yangtze River waterway has become unsafe, which is why Guo Zhiqi ventured from Zhejiang to Fujian.
For Zhang Xuan, this east wind is coming.
