Chapter 117: What I Want to Confirm
"That guy relied on his sister and became the commissioner of Nagasaki. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ InfoAnd we, the subordinates of the former Taiko Highness, although we have not been deprived of our power and position, have to suffer from Fujihiro and his newly appointed so-called 'Tokugawa-sama cronies' all day long. β
Speaking of which, Wait An was a little angry. Quan Deng expressed his understanding:
"I see, no wonder you don't feel comfortable talking about it......"
"That's right. Really! Tokugawa-sama didn't care about this man. β
I always feel that the atmosphere in the room has suddenly changed to the feeling of a professional who complains about work with colleagues and friends......
Of course, as an acting official, it is also measured to complain. He quickly stopped complaining and began to ask why Quanden had come to him:
"Huo An, you came to see me today, you shouldn't just come to tell me that you're still alive, right?"
"Hmm. I've come here because I have something very important. β
Jeon didn't hide it. Because I was meant to talk about big things.
"Something important?"
"Yes. It's really a very important thing. β
Waiting for Ann to blink, he didn't know what was particularly important to find him with this old friend with a serious expression now.
Quan Deng stood up, and after making sure that there was no one outside, he returned to his place, approached Waitan, and asked in a whisper in his ear and with unusual solemnity:
ββ¦β¦ Antonio, are you still loyal to the Toyotomi family? β
ββ¦β¦οΌοΌοΌβ
For Quan Deng's straightforward statement, Wait An Ke was taken aback.
"Hey...... Hoan, you're ......"
After thinking for a while, he cautiously stepped forward and asked with a somewhat nervous expression:
ββ¦β¦ Hoan, I've heard that Ukita-sama has unfortunately passed away. Could it be that you hated the Tokugawa family because of this, so you chose to serve the Toyotomi family again? β
In fact, the Xiu family is not dead.
Although Jeon Deng thought so, he didn't tell Wait An about it for the time being, but took advantage of this emotion a little.
"yes. The death of the Hideya family is inseparable from the Tokugawa family...... I've long hated the Tokugawa family......"
"I know, I know that Hoan is very loyal to Ukita-sama...... So calm down first! β
Panickedly, he was a little nervous to appease Quandeng's waiter.
"Alas...... You and I, the subordinates of the former Toyotomi, are not doing well now...... You're having a bad life, and I'm having a bad time......"
It seems that the mood of Jeon Deng just now has brought out some of the negative feelings of the Tokugawa family in Waitan.
ββ¦β¦ So, are you really serving the Toyotomi family now? β
"yes. You and I are old friends, so I don't plan to sell Guanzi. In a word, Antonio, would you like to secretly assist the Toyotomi family? β
"Covert assistance?"
After Ann heard this word, she chewed the gold candy in her mouth a little nervously,
ββ¦β¦ How is the secret assistance method? β
Wait An is also a smart person, and this is what he wants to know the most.
ββ¦β¦ First, it provides information on the trade between the daimyo of Kyushu and Nagasaki; Second, to provide channels for overseas trade. β
Jeon Deng said the two most important requests that Xiuguang had given him.
"Wow, that's how it looks...... Sure enough, the Toyotomi family hasn't given up yet......"
After listening to this, Ann thoughtfully cupped her cheek, and then said:
"But that's really dangerous for me."
"Danger is danger, but the reward is definitely not bad."
The second half of the sentence is Xiuguang's original words.
In fact, there is no need for Quan Deng to speak, and Wait An also knows that the return must be rich. He's just choosing between danger and reward.
And, he still has things he wants to know:
"By the way, Huo An, let me ask you beforehand, are you serving Lord Xiulai?"
"Nope. I'm serving Hidemitsu-sama. β
"Xiuguang...... My lord? β
paused, and waited for An to not react for a while, who this was,
"Ahh Could it be the fourth man, Lord Yoshimatsumaru? β
"Exactly."
"Wait, Joan, the ...... Isn't it still a child? β
"yes."
For Quan Deng's answer without any denial, he waited for An to support his forehead.
ββ¦β¦ So, Huo An, why don't you serve a child if you don't serve Hideyori-sama or other Toyotomi family elders? β
"Antonio, you can't just look at the surface."
Jeon Deng smiled,
ββ¦β¦ This time I came to you, and I was asked by this Hidemitsu-sama. β
"What?!"
As a matter of course, An put on a surprised expression. Indeed, believing that a child can do such a thing is not something that the average person can immediately understand. What's more, now Waitan's impression of Xiuguang is still in infancy.
He rolled his eyes and asked:
"Huo An, what kind of person is this Lord Xiuguang?"
That's what he wants to know most right now.
What kind of person the lord is usually determines the final outcome. So Wait Ann chose to ask about this.
Quan Deng paused, thought for a moment, and then spoke:
"I'm not very good at judging people...... Why don't I tell you what Lord Xiu Jia says about Lord Xiuguang? β
"Don't, don't! Forget about Ukita-sama! You don't know the loyalty of that adult, as long as it is a member of the Toyotomi family, he will have infinite loyalty and praise. β¦β¦ Wait, Ukita-sama's evaluation? β
waited for Ann to find the key part of Quan Deng's words at this time,
"Wait, didn't Ukita-sama pass away? HeβHow did he know Hidemitsu-sama? β
He looked at Jeon Deng with a suspicious expression. And Quan Deng smiled:
"Antonio, you just looked like you wanted to test Hidemitsu-sama's abilities?"
"Oh, you've seen through it."
"I don't dare to judge anyone. So let's talk about events. β
"Events? What did that kid do? β
"Yes. Didn't you just ask, why did the Xiu family know the Xiuguang family, and then you can still make an evaluation? β
"Hey, hey, hey, it's ......"
Hearing Quan Deng's words, Wait An seemed to have guessed the general outline of the matter.
"Don't say what I'm going to say next, Antonio. β¦β¦ Lord Xiujia, ostensibly died in Kuno Temple. But in fact, the Hidemitsu-sama was rescued by the Hidemitsu-sama who managed to save them. β
ββ¦β¦ Wow?! β
I had already guessed that after hearing what had happened, Ann was still shocked.
"Hoan, why didn't you tell me about Ukita-sama's death earlier......"
"If I told you earlier, wouldn't it have been amazing?"
"Yes, yes, that's true...... Amazing. What are the details of what happened? β
"You have to ask Lord Xiuguang or Lord Xiujia in person. I'm just a liaison person. β
"Hmmm......"
Wait An touched her chin slightly, thought for a while, and then asked:
"Huo An, can I see this Xiuguang-sama with my own eyes?"
His eyes were slightly condensed, and there seemed to be some kind of adventure in them.
"I want to see with my own eyes whether this person is a lord worthy of my wait."
