Xu Linger suddenly remembered Han Xiaoyu's words, and immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, so she followed Guo Yi out of the door. 【Fengyun Reading Network. 】

Luo Aping hurriedly chased after her and asked, "Two sisters, a light meal has been arranged at home and the guest room has been cleaned up, what is so important?" ”

Guo Yi stopped and replied with an uneasy expression: "My sister doesn't know, there are two other people who came with us, I'm worried that they have contacted the prince at this moment." ”

"Contact the prince? Although the minions of this dead eunuch are everywhere, as far as Xiaomei knows, not many people have seen him over the years......" After hesitating for a moment, Luo Aping asked in surprise: "Sister, who are you brought?" What are they capable of seeing this dead eunuch? ”

Xu Ling'er smiled and said, "Ah Ping, don't be surprised to say it. ”

"Two sisters, who is this person you are talking about?" Luo Aping asked anxiously.

"Huang Bingwen!"

After listening to Guo Yi's words, I saw Luo Aping suddenly tremble, so Guo Yi took her hand and said: "Please sister, don't worry, in fact, I'm not worried about Huang Bingwen, but mainly worried about Jingming, afraid that he will use the token of Dongchang to take the initiative to contact Wang Gonggong." ”

originally thought that Huang Bingwen had died a long time ago, but when he heard that he was in Ryukyu at this moment, Luo Aping couldn't help but be surprised, and he didn't know what errand they were going to do this time......

"Please sister, don't be nervous, Huang Bingwen is no longer the criminal officer in charge of Dongchang, and now he has become a beggar and has broken a leg, and his backer in the court has also fallen......"

After listening to Xu Ling'er's explanation, Luo Aping asked curiously: "It seems that Huang Bingwen has fallen into Pingyang, so what is there to worry about the Jingming Daoist?" We all know that he is an impatient man, and sometimes he may be more reckless, could it be that he wants to lure the snake out of D and kill the prince? ”

Guo Yi, who looked solemn, replied: "Huang Bingwen inadvertently told a secret, Xuande Zhenren, who had served the emperor in the palace, and Feng Bao, the head of the big eunuch in charge of the East and West Second Factory, is said to have a good relationship, Jingming, this kid is thick and fine, seems to be reckless, but in fact, he is very scheming, I heard that he has long been dissatisfied with the Elder of the Moon Sky, and he hates it even more for going to the ocean and Xuanhua to the four seas, it is difficult to say what kind of thing he will do after learning this secret?" If he had already contacted the prince at this time, then what would this dog eunuch do? It is impossible to judge now. Sister, don't hesitate, we have to go back and have a look. ”

"Yes, before we came to Ryukyu this time, Han Xiaoyu asked me to pay attention to Jingming." Xu Ling'er echoed.

"So, what are you doing with pure light?" Luo Aping asked puzzled.

Xu Ling'er suddenly found that Guo Yi's face turned red at this time, as if he had verified Han Xiaoyu's words, and hurriedly explained: "Even if we don't bring him here, he himself will secretly come to us, who can stop him?" ”

So, Guo Yi hurriedly diverted the topic: "Ah Ping, I heard you say that after the death of the old shopkeeper, the prince tried to occupy this property, could it be said that the business still has his share?" ”

Luo Aping nodded and replied: "I learned from Brother Wen Tao that back then, my brother-in-law Lin Feng, with the help of my father, first established a foothold in Ryukyu and opened this shochu shop, but for some reason he couldn't do it, so he went to Japan to re-C the old business, and handed over this liquor shop to his uncle, the old shopkeeper hoped to do business, and secretly befriended this mysterious prince, it is said that the two of them had made a contract, but no one had seen it, therefore, according to this statement, This winery does have a share of the prince's share. ”

"When the old shopkeeper was alive, did he have any dealings with the prince?" Xu Ling'er asked.

"Actually, after all, the prince lives in the palace all the year round, and according to my father-in-law, I have never seen the two of them have interacted. However, as the two sisters said, it is indeed not easy for the old shopkeeper to start a business, and there are thousands of sake shops in Shuri Castle, but our sake shop is the only one, which should be stained with the light of other people's princes. Luo Aping replied.

Guo Yi finally solved the mystery in his heart and sighed: "Everything in the world is really one thing descending from one thing, so it verifies the reason why Lin Feng does not dare to return to Ryukyu easily." ”

"What my sister said is that as long as my brother-in-law comes to Ryukyu, the prince will definitely try to put him to death. Therefore, as soon as the old shopkeeper passed away, he sent someone to the door on the grounds that Ma Wu was a foreign surname, and wanted to take back this shochu shop and drive away our villagers. The three of them chatted while walking, and unconsciously arrived outside the Lin Mansion.

At this moment, Guo Yi thought to himself: If the prince attaches great importance to this industry, how can he give up easily just because Wen Tao has a dispute with him?

At this time, Xu Ling'er asked, "Ah Ping, has the prince ever come to trouble again?" ”

Luo Aping pondered for a moment and replied: "It is said that the dead eunuch was defeated in the infighting in the palace, maybe he was too busy to take care of himself, so he can only say that he has no time for the time being. ”

"What do you mean by that?" Guo Yi hurriedly asked.

"The old prince of Shang Yuan has two sons, the eldest son Shang Kangbo is not a son-in-law, nor was he born to Queen Ma, the current king Yongwang Chitose is the second son born to Queen Ma. After the death of the old prince, it is said that the prince secretly supported Shang Comber to succeed to the throne, which caused a tragic infighting in the palace, but in the end it was the second son who took the throne. At that time, it also happened to meet the death of Emperor Longqing, King Shang Yong ascended the throne for more than a year, because he could not get the canonization of the imperial court, there were rumors that the prince and Shang Kangbo conspired to restore, and soon, Shang Kangbo escaped from the palace, although Queen Ma gradually grasped the real power, because of the cowardice of the prince has the background of the East Factory, still cast a mouse taboo. ”

It is certain that the Ryukyu Imperial Palace had spies from the East Factory; So whether it is a prince or not, no one can say clearly in the past.

At this time, I couldn't help but think of the "monsters" on the Diaoyu Islands, and Xu Ling'er asked, "Ah Ping, where did Shang Comber flee?" ”

"It is said that Shang Combo's life and death are still unknown." Ah Ping replied.

Guo Yi sneered and reminded: "Sister, have you forgotten?" Huang Bingwen didn't say that on the way back from Ryukyu, the canonization envoy took a few strange people and hid them in the Mazu Temple on the Diaoyu Islands. ”

Luo Aping suddenly realized, "In this way, it was the imperial court envoy who took him away." In the past, the old J giant, the dog eunuch who lived in the palace, with his plausible and confusing identity, was like a fish in water in the Ryukyu Kingdom and behaved misbehaps, if Huang Bingwen could expose his true face, I believe he would not be able to jump for a few days. ”

Xu Ling'er judged: "Now it is certain that the strange man on the Diaoyu Islands must be Shang Kangbo, and the prince was worried that the matter would be revealed, so he borrowed a knife to kill people!" ”

Guo Yi nodded and replied: "Yes, I'm afraid that Wang Gonggong never dreamed that Huang Bingwen would come back alive!" ”

At this time, the family of the Lin Mansion prepared a carriage, and Ah Ping sent them out of the door and advised: "The two sisters must be more careful. ”

The driver got on the official road at a gallop and headed straight for Shuri Castle.

On the carriage, Xu Ling'er asked: "Sister, since the prince got rid of Shang Kangbo with the help of pirates, will he kill Jingming and Huang Bingwen?" ”

"We should have asked for that flag just now." Guo Yi replied, "If they had contacted the prince, they might not have killed them in Shuri Castle, but it was possible to trick them into going treasure hunting again and let them die at sea." ”

"Sister, do you think there will be Xu Hai's treasure D under the Mazu Temple? I can't see it, it's like a tomb. Xu Linger said.

The two returned to the National Post House and found that Jingming and Huang Bingwen were not there, and they inquired with the guys to find out that Jingming had left a message: they said that they would go to sea to do errands, and they would come back in two days.

The porter of the post house confirmed that as soon as Guo Yi and Xu Ling'er left, the little Taoist priest went out with a flag, and after a while, a group of sailors from Naha Port came and took the lame man away.

Considering that Jingming was very likely to be used by the prince, Guo Yi couldn't help but be angry, she hurriedly returned to the guest room, found the note written by the old prince of Chengguo to the vassal state, picked up her brocade guard's waist card, and was about to enter the Ryukyu palace to find King Shangyong.

"Sister, I remember you once said that you can't easily disturb the vassal king unless you have to, is it appropriate for us to do this?" Xu Ling'er asked.

"Then go directly to the prince and the dog thief and confront him face to face." Guo Yi replied.

"If someone from the government can help us find Jingming and Huang Bingwen, find out what the hell are the two of them doing, and then confront the prince and princess......"

"Sister, you don't have to say it anymore, I have my own measure." In fact, Guo Yi knew that she had accompanied Wang Chong to run errands many times, one of them was red-faced and the other was white-faced, and she offended almost those bureaucrats in the Ryukyu Kingdom, at this moment, I am afraid that it is too late for them to see the jokes, and who can help her?

So, Guo Yi took Xu Ling'er to the Ryukyu Palace, explained his intention to the foreman of the Praetorian Guard, and a little eunuch went to the palace to report. They waited outside the palace for several hours before a word came out of the palace, and told them very tactfully that because the old prince of Chengguo had already passed away, this note was no longer counted.

I couldn't figure out what King Shang Yong meant, or if the prince was fooling them, and the two had no choice, so they returned to the post house very disappointed, and someone led them into the big restaurant of the post house, where Luo Aping had already prepared a banquet.

I wanted to ask Ma Wu to help deal with the conditions proposed by Yushiba Hideyoshi and let the two Ying souls return to their hometown as soon as possible, but I don't know when Ma Wu, who went to the West to do business, will come back?

At the banquet, although Luo Aping was very enthusiastic, in the face of the table full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, the maids and servants kept helping everyone serve dishes, but Guo Yi and Xu Ling'er, who had not eaten for a day, had no appetite.

During the banquet, Luo Aping asked about Su'er and Rong'er, and Xu Ling'er, who was very worried, avoided the topic of Li Rusong as much as possible, and told Su'er and Rong'er's life experiences again......

Su'er and Rong'er knew Luo Aping's true identity, but they didn't have a trace of hostility towards her, under the protection of the two of them, she lived a few days of carefree life, recalling these days in Liaodong, Ah Ping, who was full of guilt, couldn't help but sigh for the fate of her father Luo Wenlong.

"Ah Ping, have you heard of any treasures buried by Xu Hai on the Diaoyu Islands?" Guo Yi asked suddenly.

Hearing this, Luo Aping couldn't help but be shocked, as a fellow villager of the pirate leader Xu Hai, his father Luo Wenlong was ordered by Hu Zongxian, the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, to send him overseas to persuade Xu Hai, he fell down under the pomegranate skirt of Xu Hai's wife, the famous prostitute Wang Cuiqiao in Jinling, and privately colluded with her to persuade Xu Hai, which was considered to have completed the task assigned to him by the imperial court.

It is said that after Xu Hai's death, Luo Wenlong proposed to marry Wang Cuiqiao as his wife, but was sternly rejected by Hu Zongxian, resulting in the desperate Wang Cuiqiao committing suicide.

The past was unbearable, and the atmosphere suddenly became dull.

Xu Ling'er said: "Please sister, don't mind, we suspect that Jingming and Huang Bingwen were bewitched by the prince, and it is very likely that they went to the Diaoyu Islands to hunt for treasures." ”

After a moment of silence, Luo Aping replied: "Don't hide it from the two sisters, during the exile in Luzon, my sister told me a lot of the past. At that time, after the death of Xu Hai and Wang Cuiqiao, it was my father and my brother-in-law who buried their bodies, and built a Mazu temple on the cemetery. ”

"So, did the Xu Hai couple have any descendants in the Ryukyus or Japan?" Xu Ling'er asked.

"It is said that when Zhao'an was recruited, they had a daughter who was less than a year old, and her whereabouts are now unknown."

The clues are getting clearer and clearer, the prince was liquidated because he was worried about supporting Shang Kangbo, and killed Shang Kangbo with the help of a knife pirate, under the Mazu Temple, it should be the tomb of Xu Hai and Wang Cuiqiao, so, will there really be treasure in the tomb?
