914 The Ming Kingdom was arrogant and unreasonable
To tell the truth, Sun Chuanting really didn't expect that these two Xiyi would make a request, and it was a request that they had refused before. Suddenly, he was a little angry, but his face remained unchanged, just with a cold face, and asked coldly: "Are you trying to blackmail this official?" ”
As soon as they heard this, Ai Bige and Tang Ruowang were shocked when they heard this, and immediately flatly denied it.
"No, no, no, the most honorable Lord Zhongcheng, you misunderstood, this is just a business, a business!"
"Lord Zhongcheng, God testifies, there is no intention of coercion!"
In fact, they just thought that Ming Guo wanted the opportunity for their fleet to escort the ship, and put forward a good condition, to put it mildly, it meant to be coerced, but they didn't dare to say it directly in front of Sun Chuanting.
Sun Chuanting looked at them coldly, and before he could speak, Ai Bige took the initiative to say again: "If your country finds it inconvenient for the fleet of the Contempt to dock here, although the Contempt country regrets it, it can also be understood. For the sake of escorting the convoy by the contempt, it is also okay for the current Taiwan to be left to the fleet of the contempt country! ”
This is his real purpose, because the Ming government had said before that Taiwan also belonged to the Ming Kingdom, and the Dutch fleet was not allowed to stay, just as it was stationed in the Penghu Islands.
When John Tang on the side heard this, he immediately expressed his heart's expectation: "God will not embarrass Lord Zhongcheng, as long as he is allowed to preach within the scope of Lord Zhongcheng's rule, my fleet will definitely escort your ships free of charge!" ”
Seeing them talking about the conditions self-righteously, Sun Chuanting was furious in his heart, and suddenly slapped the table, "snapped", and immediately startled the two Xiyi below, and saw him stand up, pointed at them with his finger and said: "Wait for Xiyi, you are rude, and you dare to come to bargain with this official." Look in the mirror, and you are worthy? ”
At this point, he shouted, "Come on, blast them out!" ”
When the guards on the side heard this, they immediately stepped forward and scolded them for leaving.
Before Sun Chuanting turned around and entered the back office, he coldly dropped a sentence and said: "If you come to my Daming, you have to abide by the rules of my Daming, and you have to bargain!" ”
Although it was mentioned in the emperor's will, it was said that if these Xiyi agreed to escort them, they could agree to some conditions. But in Sun Chuanting's opinion, let them escort, the other party is just a matter of convenience, and he even dared to come to bargain with Daming, and said that those things are all the emperor's will, which is not allowed.
If you say yes, won't you look incompetent! Therefore, he didn't want to talk to these Xiyi at all! As long as these Xiyi still want to do business with Daming, they must listen to Daming!
Besides, the two were bombed outside the Governor's Mansion, and when they looked back at the Governor's Mansion guarded by the soldiers, they were a little disappointed. But after the two of them glanced at each other, they both snorted and parted ways.
Abig returned to his lodgings and sighed helplessly. The high-ranking officials of the Ming Kingdom are quite unreasonable, and there is really no way at all. The task assigned by His Excellency the Governor cannot be completed, and it seems that there is one more thing to escort, which is really ......
Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a move in his heart, remembering the brocade guard he had seen before, who seemed to be more reasonable, do you want to find him and discuss it again?
While he was thinking about this, someone suddenly came, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was someone from the fleet, which surprised him a little.
The people who came were a little mysterious, although they said well, few people here in the Ming Kingdom could understand it, but he still looked out very cautiously, checked the movement, and then closed the door very cautiously.
When Abigor saw it, he couldn't help but be a little surprised, and he didn't know why he was so mysterious.
"Your Excellency the Governor has an order, the Ming Kingdom is arrogant and unreasonable, and it is difficult for many parties......"
Before this man's words were finished, Ai Bige interrupted in surprise: "Hey, just after this has passed, His Excellency the Governor knows that the Ming Kingdom is embarrassing us again?" ”
The man was stunned for a moment, felt wrong, and asked what the situation was.
As soon as Abge spoke, he strengthened the thoughts of the visitor, and immediately whispered: "Your Excellency the Governor has an order, and you must teach Ming Guo a lesson, so that they can know the strength of our Dutch fleet. You can't stay any longer, pack your things and get ready to leave! ”
Ai Bige also felt the same way, since he set out from the mainland, he has not suffered any anger, and whoever wants to disobey will be taught a lesson with guns. On Mingguo's side, there were small setbacks in the past, and I originally wanted to do business well, but I was always bullied, since this is the case, then I will fight again.
At this time, in Taiping Port, in the lobby of the Fujian Navy Counselor's Mansion, Zheng Zhilong was sitting in the main seat, and the brothers below were telling him about the matter.
"Big brother, the twenty big boats and forty-two small boats on my side have already arrived!" Zheng Zhibao stood casually and bowed his hand.
When Zheng Zhilong saw it, he couldn't help but feel worried, and said "um".
When Zheng Zhibao heard it, he was a little helpless, so he had to correct his attitude, clenched his fists again, and officially said it again.
This time, Zheng Zhilong nodded and said: "We are all generals of the court now, we should have a minimum of etiquette, there are no rules, even if we go out, we will not be rude when we see others, understand?" ”
It's the eldest brother and the official, what else can I do, Zheng Zhibao had to honestly agree.
Then Zheng Zhihu stepped forward to tell him, with a precedent, plus he had been to the north and participated in the war against the captives with the imperial army, but he was also used to this kind of formal official rules.
And one of the people standing next to him looked at this coldly, and seemed a little unhappy. However, when he saw Zheng Zhilong's gaze sweeping over, he restrained this demeanor again.
When he stepped forward to make a statement, Liu Jinsheng next to Zheng Zhilong suddenly snorted coldly, and he was very harsh in this hall. But the man didn't react, so he didn't hear it, and still told him about what was going on.
Zheng Zhilong turned his head and glanced at Liu Jinsheng, a little dissatisfied, but he didn't say anything. He naturally knew that Liu Jinsheng must hate him very much, after all, in the battle with Li Kuiqi back then, if Zhong Bin hadn't been co-opted by himself, it would have been possible for Li Kuiqi to win.
"Brother Zhong doesn't have to be polite, you and my brother, in front of my own family, don't talk about these false courtesies!" Zheng Zhilong waited for him to finish speaking, and said with a smile.
Zhong Bin listened, and secretly said hypocrisy in his heart, but on the surface, he took out what Zheng Zhilong had just said about Zheng Zhibao, saying that he also had to abide by something.
When Zheng Zhilong heard this, he was no longer reluctant, but just smiled and asked about Zhong Bin's situation, expressing his concern and friendliness, which seemed to be a response to Liu Jinsheng's snort.
Then, one by one, the others also came out to tell them how many ships they had brought to assemble. They all know that looking at this, they are afraid that there will be a big war.
