"You mean?" Jin Yingji's sea-wave-like soft eyes opened in an instant, and she was reminded by Qin Lin that she thought of that serious problem.

Qin Lin nodded solemnly and slowly said the reason.

Any crime has a motive, in Qin Lin's view, there is no so-called "motive crime" in this world, even if it is a psychopathic murderer who chooses the victim at will, he also has the motive to pursue perverted pleasure and vent his violent emotions in his heart.

Attributing to the murder of Mao Haifeng, it is concluded that Shimazu Kotorimaru and Iga Kiqing may have two motives: first, they framed the envoy Qin Lin and his party to destroy the Zhaofu and create conditions for the Shimazu family to annex the Wufeng maritime merchants; Secondly, it is to make the maritime department suspicious of the contemporary Wufeng ship owner Jin Yingji, so as to facilitate Ye Ma to take the opportunity to seize power.

But judging from what happened after the incident, it was not easy to frame the crime on Qin Lin and his party, because although Mao Haifeng refused to appease him, he also hated the Shimazu family, and he almost fought with Ye Ma, who wanted to take refuge in him, several times, Ye Ma and the two envoys of the Shimazu family were also suspicious, and even more suspicious.

The development of the facts is also like this, Mao Haifeng, who has good martial arts, died, and many people suspected Iga Ghost Qing.

Shimazu Kotorimaru's behavior of entering the wooden house after Mao Haifeng's death and slashing with his knife to make a noise was also entirely to create an alibi for Iga Ghost Qing, not to "blame Qin Lin".

This shows that even if the other party has the idea of blaming the other, it will not be the main motive.

Huo Chonglou had already washed his hands and came back, and when he heard the conversation between Qin Lin and Jin Yingji, he couldn't help but ask, "Chief Qin, can the other party still take the opportunity to help Ye Ma take the position?" ”

Qin Lin smiled, let's take a look at the Shimazu family's plan to let Ye Ma seize power.

In fact, it was already very clear just now, although Mao Haifeng's old brother was instigated and had some doubts about Jin Yingji, but he did not fall into Ye Ma's camp - obviously they and Ye Ma were even more disagreeable, Ye Ma could incite suspicion, but he could not win people's hearts.

It is impossible for the envoys of the Shimazu family not to see this, only the Ye Ma family is willing to take refuge in them among the five peak maritime merchants, and the current Wufeng ship owner Jin Yingji and the most powerful Mao Haifeng all sneer at them.

In this case, the best outcome of killing Mao Haifeng is to make everyone doubt endlessly, and to achieve the goal of "the failure of the Ming State to appease the Ming Kingdom", which is far from the original intention of their trip to "coerce and induce the Wufeng maritime merchants to take refuge in the Shimazu family".

So why did the two devils do this, killing Mao Haifeng in the lair of the Wufeng Maritime Merchant is not a small risk!

What is it that makes them so impatient to take the risk?

It definitely won't be because of Qin Lin's arrival, although the Ming Kingdom's appeasement has brought uncertainties to the Shimazu family's conspiracy, but Qin Lin only has more than a dozen followers and does not put any realistic pressure on the other party, so the Shimazu family doesn't need to be in such a hurry at all.

Since the reason is not in the Ming Dynasty to appease the envoys, it can only be on the side of the Shimazu family.

The Shimazu family was no match for Goho's maritime merchants at sea, but Shimazu Yoshihisa launched an ambitious plan to dominate Kyushu on land, and last year Otogawa defeated his greatest enemy, the Otomo family, and has already claimed supremacy on the tiny island of Kyushu.

Since Quan Zhengyin was ordered to come to the Central Plains to find Qin Lin, the two envoys have been in Hirado for more than half a month, and they must have seen the situation clearly.

So how will the ambitious head of the Shimazu family, Shimazu Yoshihisa, choose?

Although the strength of the Wufeng maritime merchants is not as good as before, it is still not something that the Shimazu family can defeat at sea, but on land, the situation is completely reversed.

"And the most critical point," Qin Lin said eloquently, his eyes flashing with sparks of wisdom: "Why is Iga Oniqing in a hurry to kill Shimazu Kotorimaru?" Extinguish! He knew that his companions could not keep a secret under torture - so what secrets did they have to defend with their lives? ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this, on the one hand, they were impressed by Qin Lin's interlocking analysis, and on the other hand, they thought of the reason why the envoy of the Shimazu family was so desperate:

In order to annex the five maritime merchants, the army of the Shimazu family had been attacked by land, and at this time, Iga Kiqing and Kotorimaru found that Mao Haifeng's attitude towards the Ming Dynasty's appeasement had been loosened, and they were afraid that the maritime merchants would make the decision to abandon Hirado Port and return to the coastal islands of the mainland, so they had to risk killing Mao Haifeng and delaying time.

In the final analysis, the purpose of creating an alibi for Iga and allowing Ye Ma to incite the maritime brothers to suspect Qin Lin and Kan Sakurahime was also to create obstacles to the detection and delay the detection time, so that the maritime merchants would not have time to consider whether to accept the appeasement and leave Hirado, so that they could be dragged until the arrival of the Shimazu family's army!

Iga Ghost Qing has to kill Kotorimaru in a desperate situation, which just proves this inference!

For a while, everyone was a little flustered, and there have been great changes in the last day, Mao Haifeng was killed, Ye Ma fell, and only the young Jin Yingji was left in the backbone.

Qin Lin nodded encouragingly towards Jin Yingji, the Wufeng shipowner's face was solemn, and he said awe-inspiringly: "My father chose Matsuura Hirado Port to survive, just because it was difficult to gain a foothold on the southeast coast of my mother state, and now that the imperial court has appeased me and named me the chief of Yingzhou Tusi, what else is there to be nostalgic for in Hirado?" Everyone, immediately pack up your belongings, set sail, and go home! ”

Go home? Go home!

Overseas travelers of the Chinese nation, who does not have a nostalgia for their hometown in their hearts? Fallen leaves return to the roots, foxes die on the head of the hill, grass, trees, birds and beasts are still like this, not to mention people!

"Although Liang Yuan is not a place to stay for a long time, it seems that this Hirado Port is no longer available," the three respected old maritime merchants under the command of Mao Haifeng slammed towards Jin Yingji: "Let's go and pack up our belongings, where will the Wufeng maritime merchants go in the future, but it depends on the instructions of the shipowner." ”

Knowing that these old uncles of the same generation as Wang Zhi had surrendered, Jin Yingji pursed her lips and smiled, but soon thought of the tragic death of her brother-in-law Mao Haifeng and the forced abandonment of Hirado Port, which had been in business for many years, and her heart was a little gloomy.

Suddenly, she felt that her left hand was held in the palm of her hand, and instinctively shrank back, and found that it was Qin Lin, Jin Yingji's cheeks were slightly flushed, so she also held it with him, only to feel that the palm that was blown cold by the sea breeze in the middle of the night had the warmth of his palm, which was strangely comfortable.

"Now is not the time to sigh," Qin Lin attached to her ear and said in a low voice: "Chief Jin should take out the courage of the owner of the Five Peaks, quickly cut through the mess, and quickly solve the matter!" ”

Qin Lin was too close, Jin Yingji's ears were hot, although he had pretended to be bewitching and charming in front of Qin Lin before, it was just another plan or a joke, at this time, he whispered so in his ear, and his heart was slightly divided, and his smooth and white ears were a little red.

After all, he was the contemporary Wufeng ship owner, and Jin Yingji quickly gathered her mind and scratched Qin Lin's palm, and her little hand slipped out of his palm like a swimming fish.

Hurriedly walking to the steps in front of the Mazu Temple, Jin Yingji calmly gave one order after another.

First of all, Ye Ma was escorted up, and asked if he knew about the conspiracy of the Shimazu family, of course this guy was playing tricks to the death, Jin Sakurahime had a frosty face, and couldn't help but say that he immediately ordered him to be beheaded, and Takeo Kameban swung it down, and Ye Ma immediately beheaded him.

The old subordinates of Ye Ma and his family shuddered when they saw this, and they didn't know what kind of fate they would have, but they didn't know that Jin Yingji turned over and smiled like a flower, and said loudly: "The first evil has been ambushed, but Ye Ma is willing to be the lackey of the Shimazu family, and everyone is blinded by him!" ”

Hearing this, Ye Ma's old buddies breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this fate was saved, and secretly grateful to Jin Yingji for her magnanimity - now that Ye Ma's family has completely collapsed, life and death are all decided by Jin Yingji.

The female One Piece looked solemn again, and said sharply: "In the future, you should take this as a warning, and you must not eat inside and outside, otherwise today's fate of Ye Ma will be the end of the traitor tomorrow!" ”

The old guys had just escaped death, and when they heard these two sentences, they all turned over and bowed down: "In the future, we will only see the owner of the Wufeng ship, and we dare not have two hearts. ”

People who walk on the sea believe in Mazu the most, and they swear to the Mazu temple that they will never be violated, otherwise Mazu will not come to the rescue when they encounter wind and waves, and the people who close the boat will be buried in the belly of the fish, so not only the people who make the oath themselves dare not violate the oath slightly, but they must also supervise each other in the same boat and the same party, lest the people who violate the oath be unlucky.

Although Ye Ma's old men swore an oath, they couldn't be the leader, and Jin Yingji immediately assigned his own men to take over their ships.

Who packed up their things, who helped the old and weak, women and children, who checked the sails and rigging of the ship, and who was responsible for the transfer of the Mazu icon and the ancestral tablet...... Jin Yingji was dispatched one by one, and it seemed orderly, and more than 30,000 people, including their families, and hundreds of Wufeng maritime merchants of all sizes and ships, all obeyed the order, like an arm.

On the steps of the high Mazu Temple, the lights shine brilliantly, as the saying goes, the beauty under the lamp is better than the usual three points, only to see the golden cherry blossom Ji originally slightly pale melon seed face, because of the shouting and giving the order and slightly red, even more than usual 12 points more charming, wearing a sea tiger down black big coat, originally heroic and sassy, partial life is still wearing pajamas, in the heroic style and sharp air with a little beauty spring sleep at the beginning of the lazy coquettish, the neckline is a piece of snow skin white and tender like mutton fat, so that people see the heart shake.

Of course, the maritime merchants and sailors didn't dare to look up, and at this moment, Jin Yingji, the second-generation Wufeng ship owner, was really not far from Mazu Niangniang in their minds.

Only Qin Lin, who was standing a little farther away, smiled evilly and took a full look at the beauty.

Well, since you've already had skin kisses in Tianxiang Pavilion, it doesn't seem rude to just look at it, right?

Jin Yingji noticed this guy's voyeurism and glared at him fiercely, but Qin Lin reciprocated with a harmless smile, and the female One Piece could only pat her forehead lazily, and she was helpless to take him.
