The emperor said to Ye Gucheng: "Toyotomi Hideyoshi tried to occupy Korea without his own strength, and after being defeated, he wanted to sue for peace, but he did not understand the language. I know that Master's maritime trade is very prosperous, but I wonder if I know their truth and truth, and if there is such a person to recommend to me?"

Ye Gucheng frowned, when the emperor was still the prince of Pingnan, he knew that he had maritime trade, to be honest, it was not legal. After ascending the throne and becoming emperor, he also turned a blind eye and allowed himself to continue trading, never mentioning this matter. If it were a different person, it might have been raided a long time ago, and now what does it mean to suddenly mention it?

Ye Gucheng said, "I only go south, never east, and I don't know them."

It is a felony to be a Japanese person, and it is true that he has never done business with the Japanese.

The emperor said, "Master doesn't need to be careful, I just lack such talents now."

Ye Gucheng's brows furrowed even tighter, this was not believing in himself.

Ye Gucheng said lightly: "I don't have much heart, it's the emperor who has too much heart."

The emperor's face darkened instantly, but he quickly recovered, and said, "In that case, I will find someone else. After so many years of rampant Japanese language, it is not difficult to find someone who can speak Japanese language. It is rare for Master to come to the capital, so it is better to stay longer. In the past few days, the state affairs have been busy, so I asked Jin Jiuling to entertain Master."

Ye Gucheng nodded and said, "The emperor is polite."

Six doors are always head-hunting, Jin Jiuling can be described as calling for wind and rain in the capital, and he is a celebrity in front of the emperor, but he is very humble in front of Ye Gucheng.

Jin Jiuling said: "The small country of Wa dares to covet my land of China, which is really beyond my strength."

Ye Gucheng nodded, noncommittal.

Ye Gucheng is very clear about this war, not only is it clear, but he is also involved in it, but no one knows.

An important reason why Toyotomi Hideyoshi was willing to negotiate peace was that his naval division was severely damaged by the Korean naval division, lost the right to control the sea, cut off its military rations, and was unable to increase its troops, which gave the Ming army the opportunity to further assemble.

The world only saw the famous Korean general Yi Sun-sin and his "turtle boat" exerting great might, but they did not know that Ye Gucheng sent his own "water ghost" team, equivalent to the Marine Corps, to help the Korean sailors in the shadows. It's just that no one knows that there is such a team participating in the battle.

In fact, there was no total annihilation of the invading Japanese army, and they suffered heavy losses, far from a big victory. At the same time, the peace talks also made it so that this aid to the DPRK would not be exchanged for the DPRK's gratitude, but would only be left with complaints.

Jin Jiuling continued: "In the past few years, there has been a lot of war, the Ningxia rebellion has just subsided, North Korea has come to ask for help, and at the beginning of the year, there was also a conflict on the Banju side. Although we have won, in fact, our losses are also very large, otherwise we would not have been able to agree to Fuso's request for peace, and Your Majesty has worked hard for these things."

Ye Gucheng still has no words, the emperor should have worked hard for the country, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight, and no one forces you to be the emperor.

It's just that Jin Jiuling is a six-door catcher, neither a general nor a Jinyi guard, and it is a bit exaggerated to talk about this to himself.

Jin Jiuling saw that Ye Gucheng still didn't react, and continued: "Now that the plague of the Japanese has been basically eliminated, Your Majesty intends to open the sea, increase trade, and increase taxes."

Ye Gucheng suddenly became excited, as if he understood what the emperor meant.

The so-called "Japanese pirates" were nothing more than Japanese samurai hired by smuggling syndicates to act as thugs. The famous Da Kou Wang Zhi and Xu Hai are actually Chinese, and most of the smuggling syndicates are also Chinese, and the Japanese are a minority, and it is only because these Japanese samurai are particularly cruel that they regard them as the main body.

But these are not the point, the point is that the current Ye Gucheng is actually a smuggling group, so the emperor suddenly mentioned his maritime trade, which may have a deeper meaning.

Ye Gucheng saw Jin Jiuling's caution, his eyes were full of contemplation, and he asked, "Did the emperor say something to you?"

Jin Jiuling's eyes rolled and said, "Your Majesty doesn't have any special instructions, I just feel a little different."

Ye Gucheng knew that this person was exquisite, and he was out of reach when he was figuring out the holy will, and said, "Let's just say it."

The relationship between Jin Jiuling and Ye Gucheng is different from ordinary people, and he is still in the middle

"Life and death charms", so there is no evasion.

Jin Jiuling thought about the wording and said, "The war in North Korea has been suspended, but the two countries are at war, and it is not easy to negotiate peace. Your Majesty knows that the city lord is prosperous in trade and has a lot of talents, so it is normal for him to want to turn to the city lord for help."

Ye Gucheng said coldly, "Let's talk about the point."

Jin Jiuling paused and said, "I am towards the Forbidden Sea, and the trade of the city lord is too conspicuous, especially after the recent cooperation with Huo Xiu. Huo Xiu, this old man, is insatiable and has gone a little too far."

Ye Gucheng drew a question mark in his heart: "Is Huo Xiu going too far?"

Ye Gucheng asked, "Did the emperor talk about this?"

Jin Jiuling shook his head and said, "No, this is just my personal opinion, this is not appropriate."

Ye Gucheng was silent for a moment and said, "If the emperor takes a fancy to my fleet, or even maritime trade, I can give it to him."

"Ahh

Jin Jiuling was shocked, how much wealth this is, he can't say clearly, in short, even a rich man like Huo Xiu is greedy, and he will give it away?

With Jin Jiuling's intelligence, he didn't know how to answer. He was a greedy man for money, and he really couldn't understand what Ye Gucheng meant by this move.

Jin Jiuling has asked countless people, from the emperor and the general, to the peddler and pawn, there is nothing that he can't see through, the only exception is Ye Gucheng.

Ye Gucheng has done a lot of things, but he never saw what he was asking for.

plotting to usurp the throne, from the dragon's work, but since the emperor ascended the throne, Ye Gucheng has become more estranged from the emperor, and the emperor does not summon and never takes the initiative to meet. And like the Taiping Wangzi, the difficulties can be imagined, but Ye Gucheng agreed without thinking about it, not to mention the hardships and dangers after it was done, he didn't even return to his life in person, but just passed on a message.

The only thing that a normal person does is smuggling, and finally he has the desire that a human being, but he has to let it out so easily: "Is he sincere?"

Ye Gucheng paused and said, "As for Huo Xiu's part, I suggest not to move, after all, it was I who promised him, and it can be regarded as saving face for me."

Jin Jiuling hurriedly interrupted Ye Gucheng's words, he didn't have the right to talk to him about this kind of thing: "City Lord, this kind of thing is not something I can decide."

But at this time, Jin Jiuling believed that Ye Gucheng was sincere.

Jin Jiuling was originally just because of the "life and death talisman" in his body, he was afraid that Ye Gucheng and the emperor would turn their faces, and it would be uncomfortable for him to be caught in the middle, so he had to slightly reveal some of the results of his observations, but he didn't expect Ye Gucheng to give up such a big piece of cake directly.
