After the two merchant ships left the dock for a while, and after confirming that there were no pursuers, Ji Yan and the others decided to surprise and interrogate the prisoners overnight.

Ji Yan, Mei Yuning, Ruan Zhong, Lin Anhe respectively found four bottom water compartments in the cabin, these water compartments are not connected to each other, and they are lined up at the bottom of the ship, which can be loaded or temporarily occupied, if the bottom of the cabin is leaking, one water compartment can not affect the others, at most half of the compartments can be flooded, and it can still ensure that the ship will not sink. Ruan Zhong's glass business does not occupy a large area, so these compartments are basically used by residents, and now they have become temporary interrogation rooms.

They hoped that the interrogation would reveal two things, the first of which was to find out who the leader of the gang was; The second is the origin and whereabouts of the young man who deceived Ruan Zhong and others at that time.

The first one wasn't too difficult, and the leader quickly found out that it was a guy named Hideo. (Before the Meiji Restoration, the Japanese poor class had only first names, no surnames, and only the samurai and aristocratic classes had names and surnames, so Hideo was the full name of this thief.) ）

However, the second one is a bit difficult to do, and the minions don't know the origin and whereabouts of the young man, and they only say that the leader brought it.

So all that remains is a focused interrogation aimed at, focusing on questioning this Hideo.

However, this guy was hard-hearted and resisted interrogation, either without saying a word, or muttering Japanese.

Ji Yan could understand these Japanese words, but after listening to them for a long time, he was either "emperor" or "sacrificed" or something, and there was no clue about the young man.

And the family, in fact, originally planned not to kidnap them, and the original plan was to hand them over to the government of the northern country of Ryukyu Mountain for trial.

Now it's a bit of a dilemma, because the situation at that time forced it, so I also brought the family on the boat.

Before boarding the ship, Ruan Zhong had proposed that the two children be put on Lin Anhe's boat, and the parents and the old woman were on his boat, but they interrogated the three adults and found that they were greedy for money, so as the eyes and ears of the Japanese robbers, they acted every day according to the orders of the Japanese leaders, and did not personally participate in the robbery and other things.

The two children are only six or seven years old, and they are innocent, but what should these three adults do?

The four of them discussed it, and since the wood was already in place, they decided to hand over these situations and the people who were arrested to Zheng and Lord Zheng in Japan, so that he could decide.

After the people had calculated and agreed, they stopped interrogating the captives, but only told their men to guard them.

It's April now, the East China Sea is calm, and the crew and sailors with Nguyen Trung Lam An Hoa and others are all experienced in sea navigation, so the voyage went smoothly along the way, and everyone's mood gradually relaxed a lot.

On this day, Ji Yan was leaning on the fence on the side of the deck and looking into the sea to see if he could find a way to catch some delicious fish and shrimp.

These days, he sees the crew either using fishing rods at night or directly watching the fish go to the net, and every day they catch a lot of fresh seafood, so he doesn't want to eat white food all the time, and wants to try to learn new skills.

In fact, Ji Yan still had one more thing on his mind on the ship, that is, he had always wanted to go to Mei Yuning to ask about Nanzhen Fusi's situation, but when he didn't find a place to be alone, he didn't expect Mei Yuning to find him first.

Mei Yuning approached silently at his feet first, and then patted Ji Yan's shoulder, although he almost slapped Ji Yan into the sea, but for Mei Yuning, this was even if he had said hello to Ji Yan.

Ji Yan was about to complain about whether he was ungrateful now that he was sick.

Then I saw Mei Yuning looking at him carefully as if he was going to buy a live pig in the livestock market.

Mei Yuning looked at him for a lap and said:

"I see that you are a strong body, why haven't you learned some martial arts?"

"Martial arts? How to learn martial arts? ”

"That's it......" Saying that, Mei Yuning put on a posture in front of Ji Yan, and made a few moves, he made a clever move, and his fists were in the wind, obviously he had learned martial arts since he was a child, and he showed Ji Yan everything.

Ji Yan looked at Mei Yuning gesturing there, thinking hard:

"Oh......"

Suddenly, he suddenly realized:

"Oh! This is martial arts, then I have practiced. ”

"Have you practiced? Then why didn't I see you show your hands? What have you studied? Baguazhang? Or is it a long fist? ”

Ji Yan shook his head and said:

"No, I haven't practiced what you said, and the name I've practiced is relatively long."

梅雨宁 says:

"Oh? And this kind of kung fu? You can compare it and I'll see. ”

Ji Yan demonstrated in front of Mei Yuning, only to see him jumping up from time to time, sometimes twisting his waist, and then again

Mei Yuning looked at this strange display of martial arts, at first he could still see one or two, Ji Yan was the first move "White Crane Bright Wings" to start, and then followed by a move "Underwater Fishing for the Moon", this turn Mei Yuning didn't understand too much, this move was incoherent.

If he continued to watch, he was completely dizzy, Ji Yan began to jump, Mei Yuning could only surrender, saying that he was a shallow learner, and he asked curiously:

"What the hell is this?"

Ji Yan accepted the move and said with a smile:

"How? Do you know that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world? Do you want to learn? ”

Mei Yuning patted Ji Yan's shoulder again, and said impatiently:

"Don't grind, say it quickly, what kind of kung fu is this?"

Ji Yan looked at Mei Yuning and said word by word:

"Eighth set of radio gymnastics."

Mei Yuning was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then said with disgust:

"Listen to the name, you know that it is the kung fu of the side door, and the eighth set, is it possible that there is a first set and a second set? Kung fu is for fighting, not for acting, so let's learn two tricks here. ”

When you say it, you have to put on a posture.

Ji Yan replied busily:

"I can only practice this kung fu by myself to strengthen my body, not to compete with others, if you want to compete with others, you should compete with those little brothers of Ruan Zhong."

Mei Yuning knew at this time that Ji Yan was playing with himself, and after this experience in the Ryukyus, the two of them had some understanding of each other's temperament and temperament, and Mei Yuning knew that he was often so unserious in small things, so he didn't bother with him anymore about this "competition".

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ji Yan planned to ask about the situation of Jinyi Weinan Zhenfusi.

Because Liu Xun had said that if Ji Yan's "errand" was done well, the adult was estimated to be able to raise a general flag for himself, so he had a plan and asked: "You are now a captain, right, if I mean if, someone will give you a promotion at this moment." If you want to raise the general flag directly, can you thousands of households do it? If he can do it, what will he look at?"

Mei Yuning didn't understand what Ji Yan wanted to say, and replied seriously:

"He mainly depends on whether I am good or not."

Ji Yan was speechless in the face of this answer full of positive energy, so he changed the question and asked again: "Who is the surname of the leader of your Nanzhen Fusi, that is, the Lord of Qianhu?" How is he on a day-to-day basis? ”

Mei Yuning glanced at her curiously and said:

"Aren't you working as a translator in the Experience Division, dealing with paperwork every day, how can you not even know the names of our thousands of adults?"

Ji Yan thought to himself, when I was in the Division, I was trying to adapt to the life of the Ming Dynasty and my interpreter errand, which was enough for me to drink a pot, so how could I have time to study the personnel arrangements of Jinyiwei.

But of course he couldn't say that, so he touched the back of his head, and said with a somewhat embarrassed smile:

"I only remember the thousands of households in the former Nanzhen Fusi, and then I was busy with official business, so I don't remember the current one."

Then pray that the Jinyi Weinan Town Fusi has changed thousands of households in recent times.

At this time, it was the second year of Yongle, after four years of Jingnan, many official positions have changed, and Jingnan was naturally rewarded for meritorious service, and the old people of the old dynasty, even if they were not eliminated and sentenced, were not welcomed, so Ji Yan said this, and it was not out of nowhere.

Mei Yuning was skeptical, but at this time he didn't understand what medicine was sold in Ji Yan's gourd, so he replied frankly:

"Our Lord Qianhu's name is Zhao Xi, and everyone says that he is a close confidant of our Jinyi Guard's commander Ji Gangji, but there is no evidence for this, maybe it is a rumor."

"Oh......"

This Ji Gang was meritorious at the time of the Jingjing and gained the trust of the emperor, so he was named the commander of the Jinyi Guard.

Ji Yan was about to continue to ask, Ruan Zhong interrupted them, saying that it was time to eat, Ji Yan had no intention of eating at this time, this situation was not common, but Mei Yuning felt a little bothered that he continued to investigate the situation of their Nanzhen Fusi, so he decided to go to dinner. Ji Yan could only silently write down this matter in his heart and leave it for further investigation in the future.

It took less than ten days to sail from Ryukyu to Japan, and the group arrived smoothly in Kagoshima, Japan, to replenish food and water, and the Korean merchants who traded there told them that Zheng He's fleet had passed here two days earlier and went to Osaka, and then it was estimated that they would go overland there to meet the Japanese king in Heiankyo, the capital of Japan, which is now Kyoto.

Because there were a number of Japanese prisoners hidden on the ship, they were cautious when they anchored, but they hurriedly finished replenishing their supplies, inquired about information, and set sail non-stop, and also headed for Osaka.
