Ling'er was afraid that Ryonzo Konishi and others would come to the door again, so she stayed at the Busan Port Inn very carefully.

As soon as it was dawn, Ling'er packed her bags and prepared to go to another pier to ask if there were any merchant ships bound for Hirado or Hakata (present-day Fukuoka).

Just as he was about to get up, there was a sudden knock on the door, and Ling'er immediately pulled out his sword and asked, "Who is it?" ”

"Benefactor, it's me." A Japanese voice replied, "I'm Yajiro, has the benefactor forgotten me?" ”

Ling'er still didn't open the door, and continued to ask, "Yajiro, why are you here?" ”

"I was entrusted by Prince Wenjing to be in charge of trading in Korea, and when I heard that my benefactor had arrived in Busan, I hurried here early in the morning, and I have already arranged for you a merchant ship to go to Hirado." Yajiro replied.

Looking out through the crack in the door, I saw Yajiro holding a large jar in one hand and wiping the sweat on his forehead with the other, standing at the door with his head bowed respectfully, and Ling'er opened the door.

Yajiro bowed deeply and said, "Benefactor, I haven't seen him for seven years, and the villain and Kiyohime pray for their benefactor every day......"

Ling'er let Yajiro into the guest room, and when Yajiro came in, he put the jar on the table, took out a large bowl and spoon from his bag, and busily served the soup out of the jar.

"Benefactor, late yesterday night, I heard that you came to Busan, Qingji and I were so happy that we didn't sleep all night, we planned to stay here for a few days, and I heard that you were leaving early in the morning, Qingji stewed chicken soup for you all night, hurry up and drink it while it's hot." Yajiro said and brought the chicken soup to Ling'er.

Ling'er had been observing Yajiro and didn't speak, but when she saw that Yajiro was respectful and handed over the hot chicken soup, she smiled and said, "Thank you!" Yajiro, though, I've already had breakfast. ”

Yajiro looked very disappointed, put the chicken soup back on the table, and sighed: "Alas, it's all Kiyohime, I and Kiyohime should have come to visit our benefactor last night, Kiyohime said that I don't want me to disturb your rest, let me come over early in the morning to surprise you." ”

"Yajiro, how did you know I was coming to Busan?" Ling'er asked.

"Yes, I was told by Lord Silonzo Koshi, who came to my house late last night and said he saw you on the docks." Yajiro replied.

Sure enough, he didn't guess wrong, it was Xiao Nishilonzo who told him, so what kind of heart did Xiao Nishironzo have?

Although she knew that Yajiro had been doing business with Wen Jing, Ling'er was still doubly careful and asked, "Yajiro, how long have you been in North Korea?" ”

"Hehe, it's been more than two years, you don't know yet, Young Master Wen Jing and Chen Shen's shopkeeper in Sakai Town have split up, I have also made a fortune with Young Master Wen Jing over the years, and I married Qing Ji Ming Media to Jinai Town, and now this bastard of Chaya Shiro Jiro no longer dares to underestimate me, haha......"

"Kiyohime also came to North Korea with you?" Ling'er asked.

"Yes, yes, Kiyohime came here to help, she has been missing the child at home lately, so she is just in time to let Kiyohime accompany you back to Japan, she is now waiting at the dock." Yajiro replied.

Accompanied by Qing Ji, Ling'er put some snacks and asked, "Whose merchant ship is it on?" ”

"The lord of Hirado Castle, Matsuura Takanobu's family, arrived in Hirado, where Kiyohime's brother, Chaya Shiro Jiro's family's business, was received and sent back to the town safely. Young Master Wenjing's house is lively now, there are a lot of merchants and mages from your Ming Kingdom, and a mage said, I, Yajiro, can also become a samurai in the future, hehe, in a few days, I will also go back, please ask the old mage to help me choose a nice surname, otherwise, how can I be a samurai? Haha......"

"Is Ronzo Konishi gone?" Ling'er asked.

Yajiro replied: "Mr. Konishi's ship left before dawn, and I originally wanted to ask you to take the merchant ship of Mr. Konishi's family, but I asked Mr. Konishi that they were going to stay on Tsushima Island for a day, so I contacted Mr. Matsuura's ship and asked Kiyohime to accompany you."

"Since Miss Kiyohime is already waiting at the docks, let's hurry up and go." Ling'er said, then packed her bags, retired from the guest room, and went to the Busan Port Pier with Yajiro.

Out of the inn, Yajiro very respectfully invited Ling'er to get on the horse, holding the reins of the horse in one hand and a large jar of chicken soup in the other hand.

Ling'er judged that this Japanese woman was Kiyohime, so she got off the horse, looked at Yajiro, and said with a smile: "You are really blessed!" ”

"Hehe, it's not thanks to the benefactor, if I still go to the ferry terminal in Nagato in Chikuzen, how can I marry the noble Miss Kiyohime!" Yajiro laughed.

Qing Ji ran to Ling'er's approach, moved her hands to her left chest, pressed her right hand on the back of her left hand, stretched her right leg back, bent her left leg at the knee, bowed her head and said: "Slave Qing Ji to meet her benefactor, Miss Xu Ling'er, I can't go to greet my benefactor in person, please bear with me." ”

Ling'er hurriedly returned the salute and said with a smile: "Miss Qingji has worked hard. ”

"Is it all arranged?" Yajiro asked.

"It's all arranged, Mr. Matsuura has boarded the ship, let's hurry up." Kiyohime replied.

Ling'er and Kiyohime boarded the merchant ship, and as soon as the two of them found a place to sit down in the cabin, they saw Yajiro nodding and talking endlessly at a big man, as if asking him to entertain Kiyohime and Ling'er all the way.

Ling'er felt that the big man seemed to be a little familiar, and she couldn't remember where she had seen it for a while.

When Yajiro was about to get off the boat, he handed the jar of chicken soup into the hands of the big man.

The boat was crowded, and Yajiro waved to Rei'er and Kiyohime and got off the boat.

The big man carried the jar of chicken soup, squeezed through the crowd, came to Ling'er and Qingji, glanced at Ling'er, widened his eyes, and spilled all the hot chicken soup on his legs with a trembling hand.

Qing Ji covered her mouth for fear of screaming, and Ling'er saw clearly that this was one of the two widows who had been arrested by Huang Bingwen, and she was also very shocked, and couldn't help but hold the hilt of the sword......

The big man didn't care about the pain in his legs, took a step forward, clasped his fists with both hands, and said: "Please forgive me Matsuura Nobuyama has no eyes, I don't know that the benefactor has arrived, please forgive me!" ”

Ling'er hurriedly stood up and said, "It turned out to be Mr. Matsuura Nobuyasa, it's been a long time." ”

"Please ask the benefactor and Miss Kiyohime to rest in the front cabin." Matsuura Nobuyasa was still carrying the jar, limping and leading the two into the front cabin, and sent his men to bring two comfortable backrests.

After Ling'er and Kiyohime sat down, Matsuura Nobuyama gave Ling'er a thumbs up.

Qing Ji had heard a lot of legendary stories about Xu Ling'er, but she didn't expect to be so respected by Matsuura Shinmasa, and sighed: "Miss Ling'er is really an amazing character!" ”

"Mr. Xinchang is praising Lord Hai Rui, the governor of the Ming Dynasty." Ling'er smiled, looked at Matsuura Nobuya, and asked, "Hehe, may I ask Mr. Matsuura Nobuya, is that so?" ”

"Of course, Lord Hai Jui is the best official in the world I have ever seen!" Matsuura Nobuyama said, clasped his fists at the sea outside, and asked, "May I ask my benefactor, where is Lord Hai Rui going now after he left Nanjing?" ”

"Haida is now retiring due to illness and has returned to his hometown in Qiongshan." Ling'er replied.

Matsuura Nobuyama looked a little depressed, lowered his head and was silent for a while, and suddenly shouted: "If there is Lord Hai, Chen Yuanhua and my younger brother Nobuyuma will definitely not have an accident." The officials of the Ming Dynasty were like wolves, corrupt and perverted the law, and were mercenary......"

"Okay, okay, the officials of the Ming Dynasty are not so unbearable, Mr. Matsuura Nobuyasa, I also feel sorry for Brother Ling and Chen Yuanhua! But things in the world often have what kind of cause and what kind of effect they have. Ling'er persuaded.

"That's also the fault of your Ming court, if it weren't for the Ming Dynasty's ban on the sea, how could so many people of the Ming Dynasty go overseas as thieves, I see that the Ming people account for no less than seventy percent of the Japanese people in your mouth!"

Listening to Matsuura Nobuya's words, the more excited he became, Ling'er persuaded again: "Everyone sweeps the snow in front of the door and cares about the frost on the tiles of others." There are gods three feet above the ground, and it is enough to abide by one's conscience. ”

Matsuura Nobumasa heard the meaning of Ling'er's words, and in those days, Hirado, Iki and Tsushima were known as "Mishima Wako" by the world. The pirate Wang Zhi and others of the Ming court were entrenched in the Hirado Domain and were protected by the Matsuura family, but at that time, Nobuya was still young.

Xinchang of course remembered that after being arrested by Huang Bingwen from Cuihualou for the second time, he was detained in three alleys outside the Xi'an Gate in Nanjing, if it were not for Hai Rui's Shi Shiyong and others to rescue him, Hai Rui sent Zhu Hui and Xu Ling'er to verify his identity, and learned that he was not a pirate or a widow, but a real businessman, Hai Rui did not abuse himself, let alone extort money, but deliberately protected it, so he was grateful to Hai Rui, Xu Ling'er, Zhu Hui and others.

I also remembered that after Hai Jui left office in Nanjing, Chen Yuanhua and Matsuura Nobumori were immediately arrested and executed as widows......

Thinking of this, Matsuura Nobumasa shed tears, looked at the sea from afar, and exclaimed, "Oh my God, why don't you bless a good person like Lord Hai!" ”

Seeing that Matsuura Nobuyama worshiped Hai Rui so much, Ling'er was also quite moved, and said: "Hai people regard the world as the public, clean and self-loving, and great love is boundless, and he is a real disciple of Confucius, the descendant of Yasheng, and he knows the sufferings of the people, and the people are precious, the society is secondary, and the monarch is the light ......."

Matsuura Nobuyama shook his head again, looked up to the sky and asked in a low voice: "There are gods three feet above the ground, hehe, my younger brothers Xinsheng and Chen Yuanhua are both honest and responsible businessmen, so why doesn't God favor these kind and good people?" ”

Ling'er also stood up, looked at the endless sea outside, and was also dazed, lowering her head and being silent.

Qing Ji looked at Ling'er and said, "Master Tokugawa Ieyasu often taught us retainers to be disgusted with the filthy land and to seek the pure land. That's what was written on the old man's flag. ”

Listening to Qing Ji's words, Ling'er raised her head slightly, walking through this vast sea, she didn't know how many ups and downs she had to face, yes, why didn't God specialize in caring for good people! In front of him, his generous and loving father, Elder Yuekong, Nanguangfang Wentao, and Western missionary Mark ......

Ling'er thought for a long time, and said loudly: "Evil is rewarded with evil, and good is rewarded with good. People are good, although blessings have not come, disasters have been far away; People are evil, although the disaster has not come, the blessing has been far away. Let the wicked become wicked, which is the greatest punishment from God for them, please Mr. Xinchang stop dwelling. ”

There was silence in the front cabin, flocks of seagulls swept by outside, and merchant ships were jolting on the rough sea, slowly sailing towards the depths of the sea......
