After Zheng Fusong finished speaking, he left with a few girls, he was willing to help Li Zhaoji get out and take revenge, but he knew better how to protect himself and how to explain afterwards.

After Zheng Fusong left, Li Zhaoji said to Zheng Hongkui: "Fourth Master Zheng, I bother you to send your servants and send another table of banquets, everyone has made enough trouble, and they should eat some, otherwise how can they withstand this night?"

It would be better if there were more singing and dancing, wouldn't we continue to play music and dance? ”

Zheng Hongkui naturally couldn't refuse Li Zhaoji, and after a while, the flower hall was cleaned up, and a new table was opened, Li Zhaokui put the box aside, feasted on it, and kept persuading Shen Youlong and Zheng Hongkui to also eat some wine and food.

"Li Zhaoji, how long are you going to make trouble?" After a long time, when Li Zhaoji was burping, Lin Cha, who was kneeling on the ground, asked loudly.

"Yo, forget, forget, and Mr. Lin, oops, it's really damned, Mr. Lin hurry up." Li Zhaoji's words were full of guilt, but he didn't really forget Lin Cha, just now he ate and drank there, and all the bones he gnawed out were thrown to Lin Cha who was kneeling on the ground, this was a deliberate humiliation of him, but Lin Cha didn't dare to attack.

Now that the humiliation is over, Yang Yandi appeared in the flower hall, he came to Li Zhaoji's side, and said to him: "Big shopkeeper, the sixth master is ready." Zheng Gongzi helped us get out, and the local garrison didn't react.

That Mr. Zhao asked me to give you a message, no matter what, don't hurt the dog officer here. It's better to save face so that you have room for the future. ”

Li Zhaoji nodded slightly, handed the box to Yang Yandi, and said, "Yandi, you are behind me." ”

Yang Yandi nodded, Li Zhaoji put down his chopsticks, and said, "Okay, my people and my boat are free, now we can talk happily." ”

When Li Zhaoji said this, he gave Chen Ping a look, signaling that he could no longer pretend to be dead, and whether he could lurk in the local yamen in Guangdong depended on today.

"Li Zhaoji, what are you going to do with us?" Zheng Hongkui asked.

Li Zhaoji said: "When you are full and have drunk enough, how about going out for a walk?" ”

Chen Ping hurriedly protected Shen Youlong behind him and said, "Li Zhaoji, you don't want to come here, Governor Shen, you dare to hijack it?" Now that you are safe, leave immediately, and if you act recklessly, I am afraid that your life will not be guaranteed. ”

Li Zhaoji laughed and said, "I forgot about you." At the beginning, he had a problem with Lao Tzu on Wailingding Island, and now he still dares to be presumptuous here. Yandi, beat, fight to death. ”

Yang Yandi stepped forward, rolled up his sleeves and pressed Chen Ping to the ground, and smashed his face with a fist, Chen Ping also resisted, the two hit one side, Chen Ping took Yang Yandi's hand and said: "Yang Er, your kid has a little personal grudge, damn, the communiqué has a personal vendetta." ”

Yang Yandi smiled and said, "I'm avenging Ah Shun, didn't you also be ruthless when you beat him at the yamen." ”

"Your uncle's ......." Chen Ping scolded and was punched in the jaw by Yang Yandi.

Although the fight was very bad, Yang Yandi had a lot of hands on his hands, that is, a little flesh wound, but Shen Youlong didn't understand this, so this bitter meat trick was quite perfect.

"Okay, don't fight again, the old man will go with you, let's say, where to go?" Shen Youlong asked.

Li Zhaoji greeted Yang Yandi: "Yandi, tie up Zheng Siye and Lin Zongbing, as for Lord Shen, there is no need." ”

After a short time, the two were tied up and dragged to the carriage outside the hall, and Li Zhaoji said: "Go to the military prison, first release the English red hair, Lord Shen, I bother you to write a military order, so that my people can drive away two foreign ships." This is what you promised early, so you shouldn't be out of the equation at this point. ”

Shen Youlong was detained by Li Zhaoji at this time, where did he still have the capital to bargain with him, so he immediately agreed.

Military prison.

Even in the semi-underground military prison, Duke could sense what was happening outside.

The noise woke him up, and he crawled to the cell door, and looked out desperately through the crack, which was so small that he could not see anything, except for the jumbled sound of speech, which he could not understand.

The English have been imprisoned here for three days, and have been neighbors with fleas and rats for three days, and life has been very miserable.

The cell boss would give two meals a day, the same in the morning and in the evening, the difference was in the variety of pickles.

Duke remembered what his escort had said to him: If you dare to hide a word, the general will let me hang you on a wooden pole and use a knife to cut off your flesh little by little until you are reduced to a skeleton.

That sentence completely shocked Duke, and he said everything he knew, the only thing that constrained him was that he was not proficient enough in Portuguese, otherwise he could have spoken more. It's just a pity that the only language that the two sides can communicate with is this.

"Don't look at it, it'll be fine today." A voice came from the depths of the cell, it was Aaron's.

After William's death in the conflict on the shores of Sin'an, Aaron and Duke became the only two leaders of the English people, and the two were imprisoned together.

"How do you know, do you hear the voices outside, I think they might execute us," Duke said. ”

"No, the people here have a tradition that before killing, they will let the prisoner eat a good meal, and today we still eat multigrain rice and pickles, so we will not die today." Aaron seemed to have some knowledge of the culture of the East and said calmly.

Seeing that Duke didn't believe it and was still walking around on the ground, he said, "Even if you are worried, what can you do, when they want to kill you, you will die too, do you still have a chance to resist?" ”

"I'll resist." Duke shook his fist and said, "If I knew I was going to die, then I would kill anyone I saw, I couldn't die in vain." ”

Aaron smiled faintly: "This must have been given to you by William's idiot, but as a result, he died first." ”

"I will not allow you to insult His Excellency William." Duke instinctively drew his knife, but there was nothing at his waist, and he pounced on Aaron and grabbed him by the neck.

Aaron desperately pushed Duke away, but he couldn't push it away, the two scuffled together, and it wasn't until Aaron cried out that Duke let go, he didn't want to provoke the guards outside, because he would be beaten fat.

"If you don't have the guts, I'll plug your mouth with mud if you cry again." Duke threatened.

"You pariah, can you be like me, if you die, you die, and I ........." Aaron said unconvinced.

Duke was not from a small background, his father was the captain of an adventure ship, and the reason why William would promote him was because his father used to fight alongside William. But Aaron, he is different, he is the illegitimate son of an English nobleman, although he does not have a title and estate inheritance, because he has been loved by his father since childhood, he is no different from the nobles in terms of education and wealth.

He is the commercial commissioner of the British East India Company, and belongs to the human master.

The two of them said without saying a word, and the day gradually dawned, but Aaron cried endlessly, complaining about God's injustice and accusing the barbarism of the Ming court, but he did not dare to complain about William anymore, because he was afraid that Duke would beat him again.

At this moment, there was a stumble of footsteps outside, and Duke pounced again, covered Aaron's mouth, and whispered, "Someone is coming." ”

Aaron was also vigilant: "It's not time to eat, do you want to be interrogated again?" ”

There was a sound of unlocking outside the door, and then four soldiers walked in, and two of them took one and escorted them out, and the two passed through empty cells, where there were many English people, but now there were no one.

The group came to a stone house, and after entering, they could see seven or eight people sitting or standing inside, because the sky was just dawn and the light was insufficient, so that the two of them could not see the faces inside.

A man pointed to the table and said to Aaron and Duke in Portuguese, "Eat!" ”

On the table is a large plate of cooked cuts, a roasted duck, and a large basket of pancakes, each with an enticing aroma.

Duke and Aaron's faces were as dead as ashes, and they both remembered what Aaron had said last night about the Eastern tradition of giving prisoners a good meal before cutting off their heads.

Aaron was paralyzed to the ground in fright, but Duke's heart was crossed, he grabbed the meat and stuffed it into his mouth, he ate while looking at the people around him, through the light from the window, his eyes swept over Shen Youlong and the others, and finally fixed on Lin Cha.

Looking at the clothes, he knew that everyone here had an identity, but Lin Cha was the only one he was sure of, because it was this man's men who threatened him in the first place and gave himself destruction and persecution for the next three days.

Duke knew that he was dead, and he wanted revenge, and he wanted to kill one of them before he died, and if there was only one, it would be Lincha.

Duke kept stuffing meat and patties into his mouth, he used his chopsticks as a fork, and inserted pieces of pancakes into his mouth, and just as he was eating happily, he suddenly burst out and pounced on Lincha, grabbed him by the hair, pulled it back, forced him to tilt his head, and then the chopsticks were inserted directly into his nostrils.

If it is inserted this time, it will definitely be inserted into the back of the head, and Lin Cha will die on the spot.

Fortunately, Lin Cha reacted quickly, turned to one side, dodged the fatal blow, and the chopsticks only pierced his nostrils and bled out.

Yang Yandi, who was in charge of guarding these people, saw Duke suddenly hurt someone, kicked him to the ground, and ordered someone to tie him up.

"Kill him, I'm going to kill this demon." Duke roared loudly until someone removed his jaw.

When Li Zhaoji walked into the stone house, all he saw was chaos in front of him, Duke was screaming and resisting, Aaron was peeing his pants in fright, and Lin Cha, blood flowing from his fingers.
