When I returned to Jiang's house and asked, I realized that Jiang Jiulang had not come back yet. Yu Ren was not in a hurry, he knew that today was the day of Li Ying's engagement, and guessed that this Jiang Jiulang might have gone to drink.

Sure enough, in the middle of the night, Jiang Jiulang returned. Judging by the way he looked, he seemed to have drunk more than he had last night.

Ergou and two little girls helped Jiang Jiulang to his room. Yu Ren has been following him, seeing Jiang Jiulang drunk like this, he really has no tricks. I wanted to ask him what he said today, how did he do with gathering friends to save people? But seeing him like this, Yu Ren could only shake his head and leave.

Early the next morning, Yu Ren got up early, he came to Jiang Jiulang's room first, and asked the little girl who was waiting outside, "Is your young master awake?" ”

"I'm afraid it's still early! The young master drank so much last night, and if he didn't sleep until he was upright, he was afraid that he wouldn't get up. ”

When Yu Ren heard this, he was about to turn around and leave in disappointment, when he suddenly saw the door knocking, Jiang Jiulang rushed out from inside, and grabbed Yu Ren's shoulders. He was barefoot, and his pajamas had not yet been changed, apparently just getting out of bed.

"Brother Li, you haven't left yet! It's so good, it's so good! This time, I'm all up to you. ”

Yu Ren hugged Jiang Jiulang and asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Jiang Jiulang glanced at Yahuan who was standing aside, "You go out first!" I don't need you to serve here. I don't call you, you just look at the yard from afar. Let no one let them into the courtyard without my permission. ”

The little girl agreed and turned away.

Jiang Jiulang invited Yu Ren into the room and quickly closed the door.

"What the hell is going on?" Yu Ren asked.

"It's hard to put into words!" Jiang Jiulang said and sighed softly.

"After hearing your words yesterday, I hurried to find those old friends. When these people saw me, they were all very polite. But when they heard that I wanted to ask them to help save the eldest lady from home, they all changed their faces in fright, and they were busy looking for all kinds of excuses to prevaricate.

Brother of life and death! It was such a disappointment to me. ”

When Jiang Jiulang said this, he suddenly knelt down in front of Yu Ren, "Brother Li, I'll rely on you now." ”

Yu Ren pretended to be a difficult way, "Without the help of others, just rely on the strength of you and me, I'm afraid it will be difficult to get things done!" ”

"No, no, no! I've thought about it. As long as Brother Li is willing to help, I will find a way to lure that Zheng Zhilong out, and then you will give him a surprise attack. This Zheng Zhilong, I know very well that although his stretch of hand is not bad, it is definitely not your opponent.

As long as we kill this Zheng Zhilong, then the master wants to force the eldest lady to marry him, and there is no way. This trick is called a salary draw from the bottom of the kettle, how about it? ”

Yu Ren lowered his head and pondered for a moment. "Good is good. I'm afraid it's not so easy to do! This Zheng Zhilong is obviously wary of you, if you invite him to go somewhere, he may not go. Even if we go, we will bring many people with us, so how do we start? ”

"I've thought about this for a long time. I'm not going to ask him in my own name. I know that this Zheng Zhilong has a good friend in Hirado, the daughter of a Japanese official. This matter is very secret, and few people know about it. I told my father about this, and asked him to tell the master, and let the master send someone to investigate. But my father's reply when he came back to me was that the master sent someone to check, and that woman and Zheng Zhilong only knew each other, and there was no deep friendship, let alone adultery.

But I once saw Zheng Zhilong have a private meeting with this woman with my own eyes. The relationship between Zheng Zhilong and this woman is very private, and no one knows about his brothers. Therefore, I plan to send someone to ask Zheng Zhilong out in the name of this woman. I think Zheng Zhilong will definitely come, and he won't bring any of his subordinates. ”

Yu Ren listened to Jiang Jiulang's words before nodding slightly. "Good. Then I'll help you once. It's just, what should we do after we kill this Zheng Zhilong? Will his brothers and his other six sworn brothers spare us? ”

"Well, you can rest assured. As long as Zheng Zhilong dies, their gang will no longer have the support of the master. As long as there is no support from the master, with their rabble, I, Jiang Jiulang, have not taken it into account. ”

Yu Ren did not object again. The two of them discussed the details of the matter, and went their separate ways.

That night, Zheng Zhilong, who was learning to take care of the affairs of the Li family with the managers of the Li family in the Li Mansion, suddenly received a letter.

Zheng Zhilong didn't care, but after opening it and looking at it, his face immediately changed. He only hurriedly said to the two managers, "I suddenly have something to deal with, so let's do it yourself!" ”

The two managers knew that he was now the prospective son-in-law of the Li family, so they naturally didn't dare to ask him more.

When Zheng Zhilong went outside, he hurriedly asked the subordinate of the Li Mansion who had sent the letter in. "Who sent this letter?"

"It was sent by a little beggar."

"What about people?"

"After delivering the letter, he left."

Zheng Zhilong hurried to the door, but there was still the shadow of a beggar.

Sending Zhilong took the letter and found a place where there was no one, and read the letter carefully. Seeing that it was indeed the handwriting of the person he was familiar with, he was relieved. Although there was a faint meaning of coercion in the letter, Zheng Zhilong knew this woman too well. As long as she is coaxed with a few words, she is guaranteed to be able to obey her words and be down-to-earth.

Zheng Zhilong walked out of Hirado Castle with confidence and came to Sanzhen Temple three miles outside the city. It is a temple in a relatively remote location. The temple is small in size and there are not many pilgrims. Zheng Zhilong has been dating this Japanese woman here since he discovered this place.

This woman's name is Reiko Nishijima, and the two met a year ago when they were offering incense here, and since then the two have fallen in love at first sight and can't extricate themselves.

But two months ago, when Zheng Zhilong learned that Li Dan had taken a fancy to him and intended to marry his daughter to him. Zheng Zhilong resolutely broke off the relationship with this Nishijima Reiko. But after that, due to the entanglement of Reiko Nishijima, the two met twice.

Because Zheng Zhilong was afraid that she would make her relationship with him public, he had to coax her. And this Miss Nishijima is also very easy to deceive, every time Zheng Zhilong says, she will believe it. She has always believed that after Zheng Zhilong marries Miss Li, he will come to marry her as a concubine.

She doesn't have too high expectations, as long as Zheng Zhilong can accept her as a concubine.

This time, Zheng Zhilong believes that he can still solve the problem easily. He walked into the Sanzhen Temple with great confidence.

Here, Zheng Zhilong has a separate Zen room. He bought it for five taels of silver a month for incense money. Walking into the temple, Zheng Zhilong went straight to his meditation room at the back of the temple.

The door to the meditation room is closed. Zheng Zhilong tapped twice on the door. The door opened. Sure enough, Miss Nishijima was already waiting for him here.

Zheng Zhilong flashed into the door and closed the door again.

He was about to use his gentle tricks, preparing to hold Miss Nishijima in his arms for a while in order to appease her displeasure. But suddenly a sharp sword came out from the side and put it on his neck.

Zheng Zhilong was suddenly conspired by this, and couldn't help but be taken aback. But he still forced his composure and said, "Which brother is making such a joke with the younger brother?" ”

"Who is kidding you. Zheng Zhilong, today you will let you know the result of knowing that this toad wants to eat swan meat. It is up to you to marry our young lady. Nor do you look at yourself in a mirror. With the appearance you look like, are you worthy of our young lady? ”

Zheng Zhilong was under the eaves at this time and had to bow his head. He had already recognized that the person who spoke was the son of the head of the Li Mansion Jiang, Jiang Jiulang. For this Jiang Jiulang, he already knew that this person was dissatisfied with him. However, he also knew that Jiang Jiulang was already a waste now, so he didn't take him to heart.

Although Jiang Jiulang had been spreading rumors about him outside, he knew that Li Dan would not believe it, so he went with him. After all, his father is the current chief administrator of the Li Mansion, and he can't offend him for the time being. As for the street interception and killing operation a few days ago, the others were not arranged by him at all. It was the result of the two reckless men under his command who made their own claims. Afterwards, they were afraid that they would be scolded for failing the matter, so they didn't tell Zheng Zhilong.

When Zheng Zhilong heard Jiang Jiulang's voice, he was much more relieved. He believed that Jiang Jiulang would not kill him. After all, his current identity has been recognized by Li Dan, and he believes that even if Jiang Fuxiang's father and son are no longer satisfied with themselves, they will never risk being punished by Li Dan to kill themselves.

So, Zheng Zhilong said, "It turned out to be Brother Jiang!" Someone must have deliberately stirred up a relationship between our brothers. There must be some misunderstanding between us, Brother Jiang must not believe the words of others! I, Zheng Zhilong, dare to swear to the sky, I have never done anything to be sorry for you, Brother Jiang! ”

Jiang Jiulang sneered, "You still dare to say this." You said that you have never done anything to be sorry for me, so who sent the two people who wanted to kill me in Xicheng the night before? ”
