On the warship, Lu Wenheng cautiously said to Sun Yueling: "Your Excellency...... That Xu Xinsu, Xu Xinsu's whereabouts in the naval battle are unknown, and I don't know if he is dead or alive? ”

Sun Yueling's heart sank suddenly when he heard this, Xu Xinsu was originally a felony handed over to them by the Dutch according to the agreement, and he had been kept on the ship under the care of the soaps, and he originally took this guy to Fuzhou, and he was to testify against Yu Zhigao, but unexpectedly, his whereabouts were unknown, and he couldn't help but say: "How can it be missing?" Isn't he always under the watchful eye of your people? Didn't you take him with you when you abandoned the ship and fled? ”

Lu Wenheng sighed: "This ...... Originally, everyone took him with them, but unexpectedly...... Unexpectedly, after his sworn brother Yang Tianlu arrived, the situation in the field immediately got out of control, and finally when we counted the number of people, it was ...... only to find that Xu Xinsu was gone. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

With a "bang", Sun Yueling slammed his fist on the table and said angrily: "What are you doing, you can't even take care of a prisoner?" "I was extremely angry in my heart, this guy must have been rescued by Yang Tianlu and escaped from him again. It's a pity that he spent countless efforts and countless efforts to finally get back from the Dutch, and let him escape again.

Without Xu Xinsu's confession, what can he use to testify against Yu Zhigao, is it just his one-sided words? Yu Zhigao is not a simple person, but a senior member of the Fujian military, and he also has a lot of power in the DPRK and China, and he can deal with such a local dignitary with a deep background, if there is no sufficient evidence, he can do it.

The more Sun Yueling thought about it, the more heartache he felt, regretting his negligence, and did not fix the supply of this guy as soon as possible, but planned to interrogate him carefully after arriving in Fuzhou.

Lu Wenheng was reprimanded by Sun Yueling, and it was difficult to vent the fire in his heart, so he scolded Wang Mengxiong: "You foolish martial artist, why did you appear late?" What did you do earlier, to leave the envoys behind? Did you know that we were imprisoned by the Dutch and almost died at Fort Geranza! ”

Wang Mengxiong's face was full of panic, and he hurriedly knelt on the deck, kowtowed to them, and said: "Lord Sun, Lord Lu, the subordinates are guilty, and the subordinates are guilty, but there is a reason for the incident, and I hope that a few adults will listen to the details of their subordinates!" ”

Lu Wenheng was angry, pointed at him and scolded: "This official must report your retreat from battle and dereliction of duty in the guards to the imperial court, and let the imperial court punish you for your crimes......"

Sun Yueling stretched out his hand to stop him and said, "What is going wrong, you hurry up." ”

Wang Mengxiong looked frightened, and hurriedly explained why he appeared here and now.

It turned out that Wang Mengxiong received a message from Chen Wenlian, the commander of the naval division, to Sun Yueling, saying that in order to negotiate fairly with the Dutch, the envoys asked their three warships to anchor from Erkun to Penghu Island to wait, and they could not act until they received Sun Yueling's order again.

Wang Mengxiong didn't have him at that time, so he led three warships to Penghu. After the fleet docked at Penghu Island for a period of time, it still did not receive Sun Yueling's next instructions, Wang Mengxiong was suddenly a little suspicious, so he found Chen Wenlian to learn more about the situation. When Chen Wenlian answered him, his words flickered and were unknown, and Wang Mengxiong was even more suspicious in his heart, feeling that he might have been deceived by Chen Wenlian.

Unexpectedly, the next development was simply beyond his expectations, Chen Wenlian saw that his lies were about to be revealed, and actually launched some cronies and soldiers to mutiny, and almost killed him. After Wang Mengxiong escaped from Chen Wenlian, he immediately organized people to suppress it, and finally, under his leadership, finally put down Chen Wenlian's group of rebels. It's just that after such a delay, a lot of time has passed, and I don't know what the situation of the entire envoy group in Taiwan is.

Wang Mengxiong was worried that Sun Daren, who was in Taiwan, was in an unbearable situation, so he hurriedly prepared three warships, and on this day he came at full speed towards Taiwan.

After Wang Mengxiong finished speaking, he kowtowed again and said: "Lord Sun, my subordinates were really deceived by Chen Wenlian, I don't know that the adults are in prison...... The subordinates are loyal to the adults, and I hope the adults will see it......"

Hearing him say this, Sun Yueling finally understood the ins and outs of the matter, sighed, helped him up, and said: "Those who don't know are not guilty, you can quell the rebellion, kill thieves and save people, and you can be regarded as fulfilling your duties and fulfilling your mission!" ”

"Lord Xie, Lord Xie!" Wang Mengxiong heard that Sun Yueling would not condemn him, so he hurriedly hugged his fists at Sun Yueling, and his gratitude was overflowing.

At twilight, the fleet finally arrived at Penghu Island.

Daming had a flood soldier stationed on Penghu Island, and after knowing that the envoy group had returned here, the flood soldier commander hurriedly brought people to greet him. So, they settled down on Penghu Island that night, planning to return to Fujian early tomorrow morning.

In the temporary barracks of the flood soldiers, Sun Yueling, Zheng Yiguan, Yan Ke and others sat around Yan Siqi's bed, their expressions were extremely sad.

On the contrary, Yan Siqi was dressed in a green robe, his expression was upset, he looked at them and said, "Why do you all look at me like this, as if I am already dead." ”

Sun Yueling smiled reluctantly and said, "Brother Yan, why don't you go to Fujian with me, I will definitely look for famous doctors and good people to treat your injuries!" ”

Yan Siqi shook his head and said: "It's useless, I was hit hard by Zheng Huhuan and the man in black, and the injuries have invaded all the vital points in the heart, and now, just by relying on a breath of true qi to protect the heart vein, I am afraid that I will not be able to save Yan Mou now, even if Da Luo Immortal is alive, I am afraid that he will not be able to save Yan Mou......" Then he smiled and said, "Yan Mou has less than a month left, and now even a strong man without martial arts can easily take my life......"

Before he could finish his words, Yan Ke began to cry again, and his eyes were already red and swollen.

"Ke'er, don't cry......" Yan Siqi stretched out his hand to take Yan Ke's hand, and comforted, "Your father and I have been through half a life, experienced countless times, and have long put life and death aside, and now that I can fight for the Ming Dynasty, it can be regarded as a complete merit, you should be happy for your father to ......" Although he said this, his eyes were still foggy, obviously he couldn't rest assured of this only baby daughter.

Yan Ke finally couldn't help it, and cried on his shoulder: "Daddy, no, you won't leave us......"

Sun Yueling did not give up, and continued to persuade: "Brother Yan, there are many capable people in the rivers and lakes, even if I, Sun Yueling, have to find someone who can cure your internal injuries even if I walk all over the three mountains and five lakes, I don't believe that you can't be treated......"

Yan Siqi raised his hand and interrupted him: "Life is like a white gap, who can avoid death?" Although half of my life is short, I look at the world and are unbridled, who in the world does not hear my name of 'Dragon in the East China Sea'? It doesn't matter if I die today, in life, I have reached the most intense peak, and now I am suddenly gone when the light is shining, and my deeds can be passed on forever above the rivers and lakes, and they will not be extinguished! After a pause, he continued, "If I want to survive like a dying sick man, look at people's faces, and look up to people to continue my life, then I might as well die!" ”

Sun Yueling felt a pain in his heart when he heard this, Yan Siqi was so strong, he would rather die than endure the painful bed life even if someone could heal him and rely on decoction to continue his life.

Zheng Yiguan said bitterly: "Big brother, do you really want to go back to Taiwan and not go to Fujian to seek medical treatment with adults?" ”

Yan Siqi patted him on the shoulder, stood up, and said proudly: "Yes, I want to spend the rest of my days in my own hands." To be honest, although I have been in Taiwan for so long, many places have not been visited properly. Now, I can finally let go of everything and live a comfortable life in the mountains and rivers. ”

"Daddy......" Yan Ke's tears fell again, and he couldn't cry.

Yan Siqi lowered his head, hugged Yan Ke's head tightly with both hands, and said softly: "Ke'er, now Dad is most worried about you, after Dad is gone, you must take good care of yourself, don't be as reckless as before, whenever there is a big event, you must ask Uncle Sun to make decisions for you, listen to Uncle Sun's words, don't go your own way, remember?" ”

Yan Ke nodded and said sadly: "Ke'er remembered ......"

Yan Siqi looked around at everyone and said, "You all go out, I still have something to say to Master Sun." ”

When everyone heard this, they all got up and left, leaving only Sun Yueling alone.

"Brother Yan has anything to explain, Sun Mou must do his best!" Sun Yueling looked at Yan Siqi, whose face was as white as paper, not like the ever-heroic Yan Siqi, and felt a faint pain in his heart. If it weren't for the fact that he and Dongfang Shengping had gone to the decisive battle, maybe Yan Siqi wouldn't have been like this, and now it's too late to regret it, so he can only try his best to fulfill his unfulfilled wish.

Yan Siqi looked at Sun Yueling, suddenly sighed, and said: "The only thing that Yan can't give up in his heart is the creation of half of the grand business. To tell the truth, it is Siqi's lifelong wish to move people and open a platform across the sea, and now this wish has been half completed with the full support of adults. Speaking of this, he paused and said, "What Yan is worried about is that after Yan goes, the Twenty-Eight Righteous Dragons will be leaderless, and they will inevitably fall into a mess, and they will no longer be able to maintain unity, and they will inevitably be invaded by the Dutch, and this cross-sea opening will be destroyed after all!" ”

Sun Yueling was surprised for a while, and couldn't help asking: "Why did Brother Yan say this, can't Ling Yan inherit the great cause after your death?" I will definitely give her full support in controlling the Twenty-Eight Righteousness. Although he was familiar with many of the people in the Twenty-Eight Senses, he did not know much about their internal situation, so he could only answer like this.

Yan Siqi smiled bitterly and sighed: "My lord, you only know one thing, but you don't know the other!" ”

Looking at Sun Yueling's puzzled expression, Yan Siqi continued: "Although my brothers of the Twenty-Eight Righteousness seem to be of the same mind, I know that they actually have their own thoughts, and they have gradually evolved into three forces, each of which is constrained and does not obey each other. Seeing that Sun Yueling was listening carefully, he continued, "The strongest force among them is headed by Li Kuiqi, who has the highest martial arts, and accounts for almost half of the twenty-eight righteousness; The second is the old brothers in the Twenty-Eight Righteousness led by Chen Xinji, although their strength is not low, but they have always been at odds with Li Kuiqi, and they have always been at odds with each other, and they have always dared not compete under my suppression...... "sighed and said: "If I am no longer there, I am afraid that no one will be able to suppress them, and they will inevitably fight each other, and there will be no peace!" ”

It is really a scripture that is difficult to read, Sun Yueling frowned tightly and asked, "What about the third force?" ”

Yan Siqi sat down next to Sun Yueling and said slowly: "This third force is the new force led by the little girl Yan Ke, which is also caused by Siqi's support for the little girl, and in recent years, she has been constantly encouraged to recruit manpower and be bold and ......" Speaking of this, looking at Sun Yueling's eyes, he said, "Don't hide it from the adult, Siqi originally instructed the little girl to take over the burden and slowly train her to become Yan's successor, but unexpectedly, the sky was unsatisfactory, and now the business has not been successful, and Yan has been unable to operate ......"

sighed heavily, and said: "Even if Yan Mou preserved the little girl as the leader of the Twenty-Eight Righteousness before he died, Li Kuiqi was bound to be unconvinced, and he would definitely lead the crowd to fight with the little girl, and the little girl was weak, even if she got the support of Chen Xinji, she might not be Li Kuiqi's opponent." Twenty-eight righteousness fighting each other desperately is not what Yan wants to see, as a result, the Han forces in Taiwan will inevitably fall into civil strife, which will only cheapen the Dutch in Taiwan. Therefore, Yan is really entangled in his heart, and he can't rest assured......"

Sun Yueling was silent for a while when he heard this, if the truth is really as Yan Siqi said, then it is indeed what he does not want to see, Beigang is in chaos, and the town of Gelanza will definitely follow suit, and if this continues, Taiwan will inevitably fall back into the control of the Dutch, all his efforts will be in vain, and those reclamation teams that crossed the sea to open Taiwan will definitely suffer from the pond fish, and there will be no good ending.

I couldn't help but sigh: "This is a tricky problem......

Yan Siqi said again: "My lord, it's not that Siqi is selfish, and he has to pass on the position of leader to the little girl, but looking at the twenty-eight righteousness, there is no more suitable candidate than the little girl." Li Kuiqi is a rigid and domineering person, if he is in charge of the Twenty-Eight Righteousness, his heart may not be sincere to cooperate with the imperial court, he will inevitably change day by day, but drag down the adults; As for Chen Xinji, Shi Daxuan and others, they are loyal and peaceful, and have no opinions, and may be bewitched by the Dutch; However, the little girl is quite a bit of a backbone, hearty, and deeply trusted by adults, so if the little girl takes over the twenty-eight righteousness, she will definitely continue to follow the strategy of the adults, serve the Ming Dynasty, and keep the peace of the party......"

Sun Yueling nodded and said, "What you said is right, in fact, I also support Ling Yan in my heart to take power and lead the twenty-eight righteousness." Yan Ke is not only generous, but also very kind and sincere, the key is that he also listens to the words of the government, and he can also relax in his heart if such a person takes over Yan Siqi's maritime trade business.
