Hearing that Xu Kun's merchant ship was in Naha Port, Zhang Gou'er, who was very excited, blurted out "Uncle Yue......

He vaguely remembered that he and Chen Yuanhua, Songpu Xinchang and Songpu Xinsheng were arrested by Jinling Jinyiwei as a widow and put into the three alleys, after Huang Bingwen released them, he sent them to Cuihualou for recreation, and happened to meet Xu Ajiao, who was abducted and trafficked for escaping marriage, just when Gillian was about to be humiliated, Zhang Gouer stepped forward and escaped from Fireworks Willow Lane with her. [No pop-ups. 】

Seeing that a large group of thugs were about to chase after him, he happened to meet Zhu Hui and Song He, who were monitoring Cuihualou, and the two did not hesitate to help, rescued Zhang Gou'er and Xu Ajiao, and took them to the Eagle Peak Temple in Bailuzhou, where they happened to meet Wang Shizhen and Wu Chengen in the lay forest, under the advocacy of these two old gentlemen, Zhu Hui, Song He and Zhang Gou'er worshiped as brothers of the opposite sex, and worshiped the elder of the moon sky as a teacher, and formulated a long-cherished wish to cross the ocean and Xuanhua the four seas, and wanted to compete with Westerners.

Xu Ajiao was sent to live in the Thousand Buddha Nunnery of Qixia Mountain for a period of time, because she couldn't stand the boring days, she was sent back to Songjiang Mansion by Zhu Hui, at that time, Zhang Gouer was doing business here, and Gillian often met, and privately made a lifelong decision.

Whenever Gillian cried and asked when her father would come back, Zhang Gou'er comforted her, but always secretly regretted that Xu Kun was taken to Yiqi Island by him and Lin Feng......

Thinking of this, Zhang Gou'er was surprised and delighted, and didn't know how to face Xu Kun, the quasi-father-in-law?

When Ma Liangbi heard that he was Xu Kun's son-in-law, he immediately smiled and asked, "Dare to ask this little general's surname?" ”

"Surnamed Zhang ......" is going to say that he is called a dog, I am afraid that he is a little embarrassed, and found that Ma Liangbi was still looking at himself with his beard, and hurriedly lowered his head.

"Ahh It turned out to be General Zhang. Ma Liangbi sighed with emotion and praised: "The virtuous son-in-law of Xu Ge's hometown is really talented!" ”

Xu Ling'er smiled and said, "Lord Xiangguo, then do as you say, and hand over your son-in-law to Xu Kun to take care of, so that everyone is very relieved." Now please write a letter, and we will send someone to your son-in-law, so that he can immediately follow Xu Kun's merchant ship to Songjiang Mansion. ”

Ma Liangbi hurriedly waved his hand and replied, "No, the old man still has something to say......

Guo Yi said calmly: "Lord Xiangguo, please have something to say." ”

"I heard that Xu Kun was kidnapped to Japan, after he went home, he broke his heart for his daughter C, and broke through the threshold of the old mansion of the pavilion, and there was no girl from his family who could meet him, so far he stayed in the boudoir, and Xu Kun learned that the dog is not high or low, and he has not married yet, so he wants to marry our Ma family as a good Qin and Jin dynasty......"

Before Ma Liangbi finished speaking, Guo Yi and Xu Linger were all taken aback, and Zhang Gou'er, who was red-faced and red-eared, almost jumped up, eager to beat Ma Liangbi.

"Lord Xiangguo, have you seen Xu Kun?" Xu Ling'er asked.

Ma Liangbi, who was smiling and not smiling, was quite proud: "I've seen it." ”

"Is your marriage finalized?" Xu Ling'er then asked.

"Is this?" Ma Liangbi turned around and glanced at Zhang Gou'er, as if he was specifically angry with him, and deliberately replied loudly: "Anyway, our Ma family is also the prince of Ryukyu, and the old man is the minister of the dynasty, and the Xu family, hehe, of course, can't ask for it." ”

"Hehe, the Prime Minister doesn't know, during the period when Xu Kun was kidnapped to Japan as a slave, Xu Ajiao had already made a lifelong agreement with Zhang Gongzi, and Xu Kun was rescued by our sisters and returned to China, didn't he tell you?" Xu Ling'er asked.

Ma Liangbi's eyes immediately widened, and he hurriedly bowed down to salute: "Please forgive the old man for having no eyes, I don't know what the identities of the two girls are?" ”

Xu Ling'er replied: "Please Xiangguo, when rescuing Xu Kun, we were the vanguard officers of the Oda clan, and the three thousand musketeers defeated Takeda Katsuyori's 100,000 iron cavalry on the battlefield of Nagashino, and saved Xu Kun in front of the battle; Envoy to Ryukyu, we are the brocade guards of the imperial court, what other questions do you have? ”

It's really unbelievable, their two special identities have been verified in the mouths of Chen Ping and Xu Kun, the representatives of Shuri, respectively, if they really turned their faces with them just now, maybe they were really kidnapped and sent to Japan......

Thinking of this, Ma Liangbi couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and hurriedly bowed his head to apologize: "Sin, sin!" Those who don't know are not to blame, after the old man returns home, he will immediately cancel the marriage contract with the Xu family. ”

I almost fell for this old guy again, and I talked to him for a long time, and I haven't figured out the transaction between him and Oda Nobunaga, Guo Yi and the others are so angry that they are choked.

Ma Liangbi, who was neatly dressed, straightened his clothes and said: "Guo Qianhu, the hour is not early, the old man will return home, first dissolve the marriage contract of the Xu family, and the dog will not have to go to Songjiang Mansion, let the old man think of a way out for him again, please rest well tonight, please go to the cold house tomorrow to discuss again." With that, he turned around and walked out.

Zhang Gou'er stopped Ma Liangbi with a sword in his hand......

At this time, Ma Liangbi smiled slightly, nodded and said: "General Zhang, don't blame those who don't know, please forgive General Zhang!" The old man has to go home quickly to cancel the marriage, please rest assured. ”

"Please stay with the Prime Minister, seeing that the sun is in the west, everyone has not eaten yet, the officials have eaten and drunk all day, and now they are staggering one by one, even if you want to leave, I'm afraid there is not even a person who carries a sedan chair, the house has already arranged a dinner, and it is not too late to eat and leave." Xu Linger persuaded.

"People are iron and rice are steel, and if you don't eat a meal, you will be hungry and panic, or not, the old man will take this opportunity to make amends to you." Ma Liangbi replied.

At this time, a maid came to make tea for Ma Liangbi, and after tossing for such a day, she was already dry and exhausted, and she tasted a mouthful of fragrant tea......

When he went out, Zhang Gou'er arranged for three villagers to guard Ma Liangbi, and scolded angrily: "I've never seen such a slippery thing!" ”

"He doesn't cry when he doesn't see the coffin, and it's not easy to force him to comply." Xu Linger sighed.

The three of them came to the living room together, and after some discussion, they decided to send Zhang Gou'er to find the hornet's nest, Xu Ling'er went to the palace to see Concubine Zheng's mother, and Guo Yi went to Naha Port to find the Ma brothers to help contact Xu Kun.

The worried Luo sisters hid for a day, and now they began to arrange a dinner party, and took out nearly a thousand taels of silver and handed it to Zhang Gou'er, who came forward to stabilize Ma Liangbi's followers.

The officials and bodyguards who came with Ma Liangbi were all drunk, but the master didn't dare to drink more, and sometimes went to the gate of the mansion to investigate, and the townsmen who pretended to be Ming soldiers sent him out on the grounds of discussing matters in the mansion, and he was already upset, and he didn't know how long he had to wait......

It was nearly dusk, dozens of village warriors pretending to be Ming soldiers followed Zhang Gou'er out of the mansion, and the master, who was wandering outside the mansion gate, hurriedly stepped forward to inquire about Ma Liangbi's news.

Zhang Gou'er gave him two gold ingots, and then, to the bodyguards and officials each issued fifty taels of silver, when they knew that the Lord Xiangguo was discussing "military affairs" and urgently writing documents, they did not dare to ask more, that night, they were placed in the wine house to live.

After Zhang Gou'er settled them, the master was still not at ease, and quietly followed out and asked, "May I ask this little general, what are you talking about?" ”

Zhang Gou'er replied with a serious expression: "I think you have also heard that the Westerners on Luzon Island are killing my Ming subjects, and they have reached the point of madness. ”

The master couldn't help nodding when he heard this, and was sent back to the inn by Zhang Gou'er.

At this time, someone brought three horses, Zhang Gou'er, Guo Yi and Xu Ling'er flew on the horses and walked out of the village like smoke.

Zhang Gou'er entered Shuri Castle and came to the Prime Minister's Mansion to find Ma Gongzi, and the family asked him to wait outside the door, and after looking for a long time in the mansion, he came out and said that Gongzi was not at home.

With such a large Shuri Castle, he didn't know where to find the hornet's nest, and Zhang Gou'er was so anxious that he suddenly remembered the geisha house and decided to try his luck.

The lanterns were hung high in front of the geisha hall, and the guests were like clouds, looking for fans to inquire, and sure enough, Ma Gongzi had been playing here for a day.

Knowing that this was Ma Gongzi's best friend, a girl was very enthusiastic and immediately brought him into the private room.

The drunken hornet's nest saw that it was Zhang Gou'er coming, and his mind suddenly cleared up a lot, and he immediately beat the girl next to him away, and asked in a low voice, "Is there any news of Su Ba?" ”

Zhang Gou'er, who looked solemn, nodded and replied, "Childe, it's not good, come with me." ”

The hornet's nest was shocked, and immediately vomited on the ground, shaking his head and asking, "Out, what's wrong?" ”

At this time, Zhang Gou'er handed over the letter left by Su Ba, and Ma Gongzi read it and scolded angrily:

"I guessed that this fucking Konishi is a liar! It's really hard for Brother Suhachi, I'll write him a letter later, and ask him to continue looking for reliable people in the Hirado Domain, and if those liars dare to come to Ryukyu again, I'll skin them alive! ”

"Childe, the treasure hunt will be discussed in the long run......"

Before the dog could finish speaking, the hornet's nest was silent: "What did you say?" Could it be that you conspired with the beggar Su Ba to deceive me? ”

Zhang Gou'er suddenly showed a helpless expression, took out Ma Liangbi's confession, and sighed: "Alas, it's really hard to explain, please take a look for yourself, people are not as good as heaven, Lord Lingzun sold you in order to save your life." ”

The panicked hornet's nest looked carefully in the candlelight to confirm that it was his father's handwriting and monogram.

In this confession, in order to get rid of responsibility, Ma Liangbi told in detail the relationship between the prince, his son Ma Feng, the elder Shi Zheng Zhen and his adopted daughter, and put the release of the pirate Lin Feng in Korea on the heads of Zheng Zhen and the prince, as for the treasure hunting and trafficking in arquebuses in Japan, it was all done behind his back, as for what Ma Feng later colluded with Concubine Niangniang, the Ma brothers and others, he had no idea before.

After reading it carefully, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said in a panic: "As the saying goes, tiger poison does not eat children, I really didn't expect my father to be so vicious, how did you get this confession?" "Ma Gongzi.

"Don't say anything, come with me!" Zhang Gou'er replied.

"Good brother, if you don't say it, I'd rather die in the Ryukyus." The hornet's nest said with tears in her eyes.

"Do you want to save Concubine Zheng, do you still want to continue the treasure hunt?" Zhang Gou'er asked.

The hornet's nest wiped away her tears and replied, "Since my foolish father has confessed, where else can I flee?" ”

"Childe, yesterday your father held a birthday banquet, have you seen Guo Qianhu, the secret envoy of the brocade guard?" Zhang Gou'er asked.

"Yes, could it be that she hurt my father and concubine?" The hornet's nest was a bit suspicious.

Zhang Gou'er replied seriously: "Guo Qianhu originally came to arrest your father, and you have seen the reason because he let go of a pirate leader in Korea, but unexpectedly, your father betrayed you and the concubine in his confession in order to clear his responsibility." To tell you the truth, when Guo Qianhu got this testimony, he was also surprised, and in order not to bring a scandal to the royal family, he ordered to take you away immediately. ”

Hearing this, the hornet's nest suddenly became vigilant and asked, "What is the relationship between you and Guo Qianhu?" ”

"Presumably, Gongzi should know, what did Ling Zun do this morning, why didn't the Ma brothers raid the Lin family's soju shop last night? To tell you the truth, Guo Qianhu and the Ma brothers are both doing things for the imperial court, and they originally figured it out, so they sent me to bring you a letter, let's go, it's too late if you don't leave. Zhang Gou'er persuaded.

"And what about my dad? Why are you so kind to give me a letter? The hornet's nest asked nervously.

Zhang Gou'er replied calmly: "You haven't understood it yet? Ling Zun has no responsibility except for negligence, Guo Qianhu is to protect Concubine Niangniang, let you return the treasure map to her, try not to bring scandal to the royal family, so I ordered you to persuade you to leave the Ryukyus, as for the treasure hunt, it will be a long time coming. ”

At this time, the hornet's nest changed its previous arrogance and domineering, held Zhang Gou'er's hands, and said excitedly: "Good brother, the future is long, please rest assured, brother, I will not lose your share, but I have to take the treasure map away." ”

Zhang Gou'er knew that the treasure map was fake, and he was no longer reluctant, and asked, "Childe, if you leave Ryukyu, where are you going to go?" ”

Ma Gongzi thought about it carefully and replied cautiously: "I really haven't thought about it." ”

"I heard Ling Zun say, you seem to be engaged to the Xu family in Songjiang Mansion, I wonder if you are willing to go to the Xu family to hide for a few days?" Zhang Gou'er asked.

It is in line with the meaning of the hornet's nest, as long as he can keep his father's position, the treasure map is still in his hands, take this opportunity to go to Songjiang Mansion to get married, and in the future with the help of the Xu family's financial resources to find treasures, why not?

Thinking of this, the hornet's nest nodded decisively and replied, "Just according to the words of the brothers." ”

"Alright, I'll go to Naha Port right away and help you get on with the ship." Zhang Gou'er said that he was about to leave.

"Good brother, there's no need, the Xu family's merchant ship is in Naha Port, I'll go directly to Xu Kun tomorrow morning." The hornet's nest seems to feel wrong, what's the problem? I couldn't think clearly, I looked down and saw Su Ba's letter, and I was immediately furious, and gritted my teeth and said: "Good brother, if Governor Konishi's dog thing comes again, you will skin them for me!" ”

Zhang Gou'er nodded seriously and replied, "I will definitely live up to my son's entrustment." ”

Putting away the confession, the hornet's nest held the dog's hands tightly, and said emotionally: "Thanks to the good brother today, I will wait to make a fortune with my brother and me in the future!" ”

Zhang Gou'er hurriedly let go of Ma Gongzi's hand, snatched the confession, and replied, "You can take the treasure map with you, and you have to keep this confession." ”

"In that case, why bother holding my short?" The hornet's nest asked dissatisfied.

"Childe, it's not that I'm going to take it, this confession was secretly asked by Guo Qianhu to show you, if Ling Zun knows, I don't know how to attack, why don't you understand it when it comes to this?"

"Could it be that my father wants me to die?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense? If not, why would he write such a confession? ”
