Ecente and Aragut were driven off the flagship by the soldiers. Standing on the edge of the harbor and looking up at the majestic and huge battleship, there was a deep helplessness and endless despair on his face.

This time, it's bad luck.

Alagut sighed and said solemnly: "Li Zhen is unrivaled in diplomatic relations, and he won't give us any chance. Today, there is no other way but to return home. According to Li Zhen's request, he must be Mr. President or Mr. Lincoln to come to China, which is not a simple matter! After I go back, how can I make a difference! ”

"Mr. President is too busy to come to China in person," Ecente said. The only candidate is Lincoln, who is just a man who has been unsuccessful in his repeated campaigns, and he is insignificant, and if Lincoln can overcome the current difficulties by visiting China, he can be allowed to come. I'm worried that Lincoln is coming, can he convince Li Zhen? ”

After a pause, Ecente said again: "Let's go, leave Taiwan as soon as possible, and then return to China to spread the news." The rest of the rest of the developments are beyond our control. ”

The two drifted apart and soon disappeared from sight.

……

Within five days, the US troops were completely withdrawn from Taiwan. Under Li Zhen's control, the situation gradually stabilized, and both production and popular support were running normally again. Zheng Zaoru stood beside Li Zhen and said respectfully: "Lord Wang, all the affairs in Taiwan are resolved, and you can set off and return home." ”

Li Zhen shook his head and said, "There is one more important thing to do!" ”

"What's the matter?" Zheng Zaoru asked.

Li Zhen leaned his hands on the side of the ship, stretched out his hand and pointed at the blue shock, and said: "Taiwan is above the top of the world, rich in resources, and has a superior geographical location, although the current Taiwan is not as prosperous and rich as Fujian, Xiamen, Guangzhou and other places, but it is definitely a treasure land." As long as it is developed reasonably, it will surely develop as quickly as possible and become an economically developed place. Therefore, the ruling situation here needs to be changed, and the current situation should be changed to achieve the purpose that I expected. ”

Zheng Zaoru said: "What does the prince think? ”

Li Zhen's gaze stayed on Zheng Zaoru, and he left for a long time. Immediately, Li Zhen ordered: "Immediately send someone to convey my order, let the officials of all prefectures and departments rush to Kaohsiung, and I will hold a meeting." ”

"Yes!"

Zheng Zaoru agreed, with a slight doubt in his heart.

Li Zhen stared at him, what does this mean? However, Zheng Zaoru didn't come up with a reason for a while, so he directly got off the flagship and returned to the barracks to send soldiers one by one.

At this time, Su Lei came to Zheng Zaoru's side and said with a smile: "Mr. Zheng, there are Japanese people from outside the camp, one of them is named Takasugi Jinsaku, who said that he is a disciple named Yoshida Shoin, and he also brought another person to ask to see the prince. ”

"Let him wait, I will assign the order that the prince wants to issue immediately, and then go to pass it on." Zheng Zaoru knew that Li Zhen hated the Japanese, so he was not in a hurry at all, and passed on all the orders and distributed them to each soldier. ”

"Yes!"

Su Lei turned around and left the camp tent and came to the camp gate.

Zheng Zaoru stood beside Su Lei, his eyes swept away, and he suddenly had a bottom in his heart, and he had already seen who was Takasugi Jinsaku among the two people at the gate of the camp, because Takasugi Jinsaku and the accompanying attendants were dressed very differently, and the positions they stood were also different. Zheng Zaoru didn't show it and asked, "Who is Takasugi Shinsaku?" ”

"It's down there!"

Takasugi Jinsaku took the initiative to stand up and bowed respectfully.

Zheng Zaoru asked, "You came to find the prince, is there anything wrong?" ”

Takasugi Jinsaku bowed his waist slightly and said respectfully: "Some time ago, I read the letter to the kingdom of King Zhennan, and my blood was boiling, I was extremely excited, and I admired a hero like King Zhennan in my heart. King Zhennan, a real man! I would like to invite King Zhennan to go to Japan to give lectures to people with lofty ideals in Japan, so that people with lofty ideals in Japan can broaden their horizons, so that my country can become strong, not to be bullied by foreign countries, and to issue a sonorous and powerful national letter. ”

"Oh, you're very ambitious!"

Zheng Zaoru smiled and said lightly: "Yoo Noda arrived in Nanjing with a delegation and visited the prince several times, wanting to invite the prince to Japan, but the prince never agreed. Now that you're inviting again, it won't be much better. ”

Takasugi Jinsaku looked calm and said firmly: "No matter what the result is, I still hope to see the king of Zhennan, and I ask the lord to pass it on my behalf, and I am very grateful." ”

As he spoke, Takasugi Jinsaku bent down and saluted ninety degrees.

"You wait, I'll report it!"

Zheng Zaoru was not disgusted by the respectful Takasugi Shinsaku, turned around and left the barracks and headed for the flagship. He came to the flagship and said, "Lord Wang, there is a Japanese named Takasugi Shinsaku from outside the barracks, and I want to see you and invite you to Japan. ”

"Shinsaku Takasugi, Japanese?"

Li Zhen frowned and asked, "He is a disciple of Yoshida Shoin, and he also has a fellow senior brother named Ito Hirobumi, right?" ”

When Zheng Zaoru heard this, he was dumbfounded.

He has been following Li Zhen all the time, and he already knows Li Zhen's schedule and rest time, as well as the type of books he reads, and even his preferences. At present, Li Zhen suddenly said the name of Takasugi Shinsaku's teacher, which made Zheng Zaoru feel "demonic" in his heart. The last time Ecente and Aragut came to visit, Li Zhen said the names of the President of the United States and Lincoln, which surprised Ecent, and Zheng Zaoru was also surprised when he heard it. Now, Li Zhen said the name of Takasugi Shinsaku's teacher again, making Zheng Zaoru have something else in his heart that Li Zhen didn't know?

In fact, Li Zhen knew about Yoshida Shoin and Takasugi Shinsaku because Li Zhen read Ito Hirobumi's information.

Hirobumi Ito is a person who should not be forgotten by anyone who has studied history.

Historically, it was Ito Hirobumi who launched the Sino-Japanese War, defeated the Manchu naval divisions, and signed the Treaty of Shimonoseki with Li Hongzhang. Such a person, Li Zhen will never forget it no matter what. Li Zhen learned the details of Ito Hirobumi, and only then did he know Ito Hirobumi's teacher, Yoshida Shoin, and also knew about Takasugi Shinsaku, the pioneer of the Shogun School.

Zheng Zaoru took a deep breath, his expression became more and more respectful, and said: "Lord Wang, I haven't heard of this person Ito Hirobumi, but Yoshida Shoin is indeed Takasugi Shinsaku's teacher. ”

"Okay, that's right."

Li Zhen said: "Call Su Lei!" ”

Zheng Zao paused suddenly, feeling that Li Zhen's thoughts were jumping too fast, and he couldn't keep up, so he hurriedly asked: "Lord Wang, Takasugi Jinsaku is still waiting outside for you to meet, what are you doing with Brigade Commander Su?" ”

Li Zhen said: "Go ahead, I have my own opinions." ”

"Yes!"

Zheng Zao ordered the flagship, and soon returned to the flagship with Su Lei.

Li Zhen said: "Su Lei, the little Japanese people are here again, and the body search is a must." Your person is responsible for this body search, how to deal with it, you can do it yourself, and let the two of them be wronged. ”

Su Lei immediately said: "Don't worry, I have a way." ”

The corners of Zheng Zaoru's mouth twitched, and she secretly sweated for Takasugi Jinsaku in her heart. It is almost impossible for Little Japan to curry favor with Li Zhen, and it will be difficult every time.
