What Li Ling and the others didn't know was that the person in charge of the Ouchi clan's mansion was not the governor of the Ouchi clan, but the younger brother of the governor.

Two years ago, the Governor Ouchi Yoshiko lived in Kyoto as the shogunate governor and the guardian of Yamashiro.

The current Ouchi clan is all headed by his younger brother Yoshihito Ouchi.

Hizen Province has always been jointly managed by the Guardian Shoji and Ouchi clans and the Guardian Chiba clan.

The strength of the other two is far inferior to that of the Ouchi clan. When the family governor left, he was very relieved, and with the strength of the other two families, he should not have bad intentions for the Ouchi clan.

Otherwise, if the Ouchi clan becomes aware of the conspiracy, they will wipe out the other two families with a thunderbolt.

Ouchi has such self-confidence and such strength!

Originally, his brother paved the way for Ouchi Yoshihito, and he should have easily become a substitute governor, but things were not satisfactory.

Yoshihito Ouchi is in trouble now, and it's big trouble!

The two families of the Shaoji clan and the Chiba clan jointly requested the Ouchi clan to send troops to exterminate the Ming army. In the eyes of the two families, this is an opportunity given by God to the Hizen Kingdom, as long as they seize it, the rise of the three families is just around the corner!

The Ming army was not as powerful as rumored, they only defeated a few pirates, and whether their combat effectiveness was really strong was still between the two.

The forces of the Japanese who are active on the sea are all weak, and the forces of more than 1,000 people are already the best among them, how can such a force compete with the army of Hizen Province?

The Ming Dynasty ruled the world with benevolence and righteousness, and they have implemented the sea ban for more than 100 years.

The people of the world will not agree, and those who are high in the sky will not agree, sooner or later, they will rise up and rebel and use the power in their hands to defend the rules left by their ancestors.

The Ming army is not to be feared, and an army that may be transferred at any time is even less fearful.

The Ming army, which others avoided, was just a piece of fat that could be devoured at any time in the eyes of the Chiba clan and the Shaoji clan.

If you move a little slowly, the fat will be eaten by other people.

Toei is more than just Hizen country.

Especially the governor of the Chiba clan, who once patted his chest and assured Ouchi Yoshihito that he had received clear news.

The Ming people have already begun to oppose the sea ban, and perhaps it will not be long before the Ming army will triumph, and they will withdraw from the entire sea area.

The vast sea frontier is still the world of Dongying people!

Whether to join the other two families in the crusade against the Ming army is a question.

If the Ouchi family participates in the war, the consequences will be unimaginable if they fail, and I am afraid that the family will completely lose its position in Hizen Province and even the entire Toei.

If you don't participate, you will inevitably be charged with being afraid, and more importantly, if the other two defeat the Ming army, the situation will change. At that time, Ouchi's advantage over the other two will be gone.

Yoshihito Ouchi believes that even his brother will be in trouble here, because it is too difficult to choose!

"Master, master, something is wrong, the envoys of the Ming Kingdom are here, and they still have official documents, saying that they want to see you!" The guards guarding the door were a little helpless.

Now the old man's temper is very bad, he shouldn't have come to touch this moldy head, but the guards are a little worried, if he doesn't come to inform, he will be found in the future, he will suffer a heavier punishment.

"Didn't I say that? Don't trouble me with small things, I have to think calmly these days and don't see outsiders." Yoshihito Ouchi impatiently reprimanded the doorman, and in the middle of his words, he suddenly understood: "What did you say? The messenger of the Ming Dynasty, what is the matter with him coming to our Ouchi family? ”。

"Quick, quick, invite the messenger to the study!" Ouchi Yoshihito was a little excited when he spoke, he was really sleepy, and God actually sent him a pillow!

Just in time to ask him about the next move of the Ming army.

When Li Ling and Ouchi Yoshihito met, the other party made a very rude request to him, he wanted to check the holy decree and official documents that Li Ling carried.

As soon as Song Lu heard that Ouchi Yoshihito had asked to check the holy decree in Li Ling's hand. His heart immediately sank.

Their father and son originally wanted to help Li Ling gain the trust of the Ouchi clan, but they didn't expect that their kindness would help them, and once Ouchi Yoshihito learned that they didn't have a holy decree in their hands at all, his trick would be exposed, and it would be difficult to escape at that time.

For a while, where did he go to get a false decree?

Forging a holy decree is a crime that will kill the head, and their father and son have never thought of it!

"Yes, yes, General Ouchi better check it carefully!". Li Ling smiled and took out a holy decree from his near pocket.

Ouchi Yoshihito let go of the official document, and he took the holy decree presented by Li Ling in his hand and played with it repeatedly.

He had seen the holy decree of the Ming Kingdom, although it was only a copy.

Ouchi Yoshihito clearly remembered that the seal on it was exactly the same as what he saw. There is no doubt that this decree is true!

He actually really had a holy decree, Ouchi Yoshihito was completely relieved at this time, and he asked in an extremely humble tone: "Sure enough, it is the envoy of the kingdom, I don't know what your envoy thinks about the lifting of the sea ban?" I don't know when your country's army/team will leave our waters? ”。

Ouchi Yoshihito looked at Li Ling with an eager gaze, and his breathing became a little short.

It's greasy!

Why is this person so concerned about the situation of the Ming army, does he think.

With his intuition, Li Ling discovered the flaw, and he said quietly: "The situation in the country is very complicated, although His Majesty the Emperor has issued an order to lift the sea ban, but the cabinet has different opinions, both factions are trying to persuade each other, presumably there will be results soon, but you don't need to worry, no matter what the result is, the Ming army will evacuate soon, we are only targeting the Japanese Kou, and we have no intention of making enemies with friends!" ”。

Li Ling told Ouchi Yoshihito in an extremely affirmative tone that as an envoy of the Ming Kingdom, he did not support the continued lifting of the sea ban.

Yoshihito Ouchi's eyes occasionally had a gleam. He seems to be decisive.

The two chatted for a long time, but Li Ling never had a chance to mention the purchase of the wharf.

After Li Ling and the others left, Ouchi Yoshihito kept whispering: "The envoy of the Ming Kingdom, can I believe it?" ”。

Early the next morning, he sent his henchmen to the sea to investigate the situation of the Ming army, and he would not decide on a matter that was important to the entire family based on Li Ling's words.

It seems that his own fleet is being targeted. The first thing Li Ling did when he left the Ouchi Mansion was to send Xiaoba back to the sea, so that the soldiers of the warship could be ready for battle at any time.
