The wind in Busan in spring is strong, and the temperature difference between day and night is very large. Days of dryness and dust have cast a gray veil over the coastal city.

This unique climatic phenomenon in Busan caused the old illness of the Korean prince Shun Hejun, who had been pampered and frail in the royal capital city since childhood, relapsed. Shun Hejun has suffered from severe asthma since childhood, and relapses whenever he encounters abnormal weather.

Since coming to Busan with the Japanese army, Shun Ho-kun has been a little uncomfortable with the weather in Busan. The dry sand caused his asthma to recur, and he had to lie in bed every day with a violent cough, difficulty sleeping at night, and heavy night sweats accompanied by high fever.

Governor Konishi was worried that Shunhe-kun would have an accident, and ordered the military doctor to treat him carefully.

After taking a few doses of medicine prescribed by the military doctor, Shun Hejun's condition not only did not improve, but had a tendency to worsen.

After Shen Weijing saw Shun Hejun's condition, he hurried to Governor Konishi's residence to discuss with Governor Konishi how to deal with the dying Korean prince.

"Brother, I think this sixth prince of North Korea is in critical condition!" As soon as he took his seat, Shen Weijing said to President Konishi, who was sitting opposite him.

"Yes, I didn't expect him to be so frail at such a young age." Konishi Yukicho sighed.

"If this death is in our hands, it will be difficult for North Korea to explain." After this period of life in the Japanese camp, Shen Weijing has gradually integrated into the social circle of Konishi Yukinaga, or in other words, he has unconsciously put himself on the side of the Japanese people who are opposed to North Korea.

"Who's to say it's not. After Kato-kun captured the two princes, the reason why everyone didn't let them go was to make the most of them. Now, Daming and we have reached a preliminary consensus, and I am looking forward to the next negotiations. As one of the considerations in negotiating peace, I don't want any surprises between the two princes. ”

"Then just let them go back. Anyway, the king of Joseon has canonized the third prince Gwanghaejun as the prince of the prison country, and the two wretches in front of him are not of much use. You see, these two people have so many people waiting on them, in addition to wasting our food every day. ”

Shen Weijing strongly persuaded Konishi to release him, but he actually had his own plans. First of all, when he set out from Kaesong to Wangjing to negotiate peace, Shen Weijing accepted bribes from Liu Chenglong and Li Shanhai, promising them to rescue the two princes. Shun Hejun was seriously ill, and Shen Weijing felt that this was an opportunity to save people;

Secondly, Shen Weijing, who is greedy for money and lustful, is still thinking about the North Korean palace maid who Li Shanhai sent to his mouth but did not eat. If he took this opportunity to rescue the two princes back to Wang Jing, he would have the capital to ask Li Shanhai and Liu Chenglong for beauties and treasures again.

"I sometimes wonder what these two princes are of use to us. It would be unrealistic to say that there is no use value at all. But if we die at our hands, not only will we lose the only remaining use value, but we will also be very likely to provoke the anger of the enemy. If this happens, it will be more than worth the loss. It seems that President Konishi did not completely disagree with Shen Weijing's request to release him.

"Then let it go."

"Brother doesn't know, letting the two princes go back is not something that you and I can solve, it has to be agreed by Taige."

"Then hurry up and ask for instructions. Anyway, you don't have much to do in the Busan area now, so wouldn't it be nice to just do it? ”

"This ...... Allow me, then, to ask the three armies for advice on this matter. ”

"It's better to hurry. You don't see the dying form of tuberculosis. If it's too late, we'll die if we don't get it right. If that were the case, he would be a piece of dead pork, worthless. ”

"Good. I'll report this to the three corps tomorrow. ”

"Okay, man. I wait for your good news. ”

Three days later, Governor Konishi informed Shen that the three military commissioners had agreed to send him to accompany Shen Weijing and two other Ming envoys to Nagoya to meet Toyotomi Hideyoshi to discuss the release of the two Joseon princes and the next step in the peace talks. At the same time, Governor Konishi also told Shen Weijing that Lord Taiko had just been pleased with his son, and in this case, Lord Taiko was very likely to agree to the release of the two Korean princes.

After getting the news of Governor Konishi, Shen Weijing was in a happy mood, and he carefully prepared a gift for Toyotomi Hideyoshi, just waiting for the moment to leave a little earlier.

On a sunny day, Shen Weijing, Xu Yiyi, Xie Yongzi, Konishi Yukinaga, Jing Zhe Xuansu, Kato Michiko and fifty accompanying escorts set off from Busan Pura by boat and crossed the sea to meet Toyotomi Hideyoshi in the Wa country.

After several days of sea voyage, Shen Weijing, Konishi Yukicho and his party arrived at Tsushima Island.

The Shimamori of Tsushima, who had received the news in advance, was already waiting on the shore to greet him.

After landing, the Tsushima Island Keeper General Ming Envoy and Konishi Yukicho and his party welcomed the Shima Keeper Mansion and held a banquet to warmly entertain the guests who came from far away.

Eating the special food of Tsushima Island and watching the dancing of Kabuki Miaoman, Shen Weijing completely forgot the fatigue of the journey.

"Brother, these dancing girls are good, tsk, look at that figure, that face, that little mouth!" In order to prevent Michiko Kato, who was sitting not far away, from hearing it, Shen Weijing put his mouth close to the ear of Konishi Yukinaga, who was sitting next to him, and whispered.

"Brother, brother, I said, if you have the chance, I will definitely find you a few Japanese girls to play with. Don't worry, I remember what I said. When the banquet is over, I will take you to a good place, and the girls there will be excited. Along the way, Konishi Yukiko had already seen that there was a special relationship between Michiko Kato and Shen Weijing, so he also leaned on Shen Weijing's shoulder and whispered.

"My brother still understands me. Brother, I'll give you a drink. After listening to President Konishi's words, Shen Weijing couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

Michiko Kato looked at Shen Weijing and President Konishi and muttered something in a low voice, she seemed to have guessed the content of the conversation between the two, and glared at Shen Weijing viciously.

Shen Weijing saw the cold eyes cast at him by Michiko Kato, and he was immediately frightened and shrunk his neck. He lowered his head and ate and drank his head.

The reception does not end until the evening. Xu Yiyi and Xie Yongzi were already very drunk, and they were helped into the post house to rest by the men of Tsushimashima Mamoru Shimamori. Shen Weijing, accompanied by Governor Konishi, secretly came to Suqing Port, which was located a few hundred meters southeast of the post house.

Standing on the dock, Konishi waved to a large wooden boat not far from the port, and then said to Shen Weijing: "Brother, I will let you enjoy the different scenery on our Falklands flower boat today." ”

"We also have flower boats in Suzhou and Hangzhou in the Ming Dynasty. Generally we call it a painting boat. ”

"I haven't seen it in your country, but in our country, Kabuki performances and services can only be truly appreciated by going to this kind of flower boat. Kabuki here offers not only cabaret performances, but also special services. You know, dude. ”

"Well, that's good."

"Aren't you just a good mouthful? Hey. ”

"Brother, understand me. Hey, hey, hey. ”

Looking at the slowly approaching flower boat, Shen Weijing was already a little helpless.

While the two were talking, the flower boat had already docked to the shore.

Only then did Shen Weijing see clearly that the cruise ship was about 15 meters long and about 4 meters wide. The whole boat is lit up. At the bow of the ship stands a four-corner pavilion with flying eaves and corners, exquisite and exquisite, and the beauty leaning, the vermilion lacquer column, and the colorful brocade paintings on the column all give people a warm and warm feeling.

The carved balustrade at the stern echoes the cherry blossom paintings on the cabins and the carvings of the turtles on the bow.

In addition to the exquisite carvings and flower windows, the whole flower boat also looks beautiful. In particular, the tall cocked carp tail shape stern gives people a gorgeous and wealthy feeling.

From the cabin came the melodious singing and noisy shouts of tourists.

"Two guest officers, please come on the fast boat." A middle-aged woman in a kimono, slightly chubby, and smiling on her face stood on top of the boat and warmly invited Shen Weijing and Konishi Yukicho to board the ship.

"Business is good." Yukicho Konishi boarded the flower boat and said to the middle-aged woman.

"It's not thanks to the care of the guests. Are the two guest officers drinking, listening to songs and dancing, or bathing and flirting? ”

"Brother, look ......"

"I don't drink alcohol anymore. If I drink it again, I won't be able to do anything. Just go straight to the point. ”

"Okay, let's find two beautiful girls for my brother, and accompany him to the private room of the cabin to have fun."

"What about you, brother?"

"I'm old and my health is no longer good, so I won't go down to play with you. I'll just drink a glass of sake on it alone and watch the song and dance. ”

"This guest officer, our girls here are young and beautiful, and you are satisfied."

"Hurry up and call them over, and let my brother pick two."

"Good, good. Girls, come here, come here. With the shouts of the middle-aged man, seven or eight young women dressed in fancy clothes ran out of it.

"Brother, pick two."

"Well, good, good. You, you, just the two of you. ”

"The guest officer is really a good eye, Yuka Sato and Izumo Zyko are some of the best girls in us.

"Alright, no nonsense. Take this brother of mine down quickly. ”

"Good, good. But ......"

"Your money is indispensable. Here you go. Konishi took out a piece of silver from his bosom and handed it to the middle-aged woman.

"Ouch! At first glance, the guest officer is a rich and powerful person, and he is so generous. You two will have to wait well for this guest officer's brother tonight. Go ahead, lead this guest officer to the guest room. ”

"Brother, let you break the bank."

"Say what. As long as the brother has a good time, this little money is nothing. Go ahead and have fun. ”

"Guest, please."

"The guest officer is really a talent."

Embraced by the two stunners, Yuka Sato and Izumo Zygoko, Shen Weijing walked towards the cabin.

Seeing Shen Weijing walking softly in the cabin by two beauties, President Konishi asked the middle-aged woman to find a quiet seat for himself and sit down, and ordered a glass of sake. While sipping sake, he looked out the window of the ship at the beautiful night view of the sea of Tsushima Island.
