Just when everyone thought that Zhu Fan would listen to Zhou Xin's advice, Zhu Fan shook his head again and said:

"This king knows the loyalty of the captain, but now is not the time to fight with his life."

"Zhou Qianhu don't mention this matter again, wait for the sailors with peace of mind, and bring those Tan people back."

Seeing that Zhou Xin was about to speak.

Zhu Fan was the first to say: "Compared with the life of the captain, the task of this king to subdue the Tan people is nothing. ”

"Even if you fail today, you can still try tomorrow, and there will always be a day when the misunderstanding will be resolved."

"But if they lose their lives because of this, how can the king explain to their wives and children?"

Zhu Fan said what he said for the sake of his subordinates.

Immediately, the dozen or so lieutenants who could speak Tanmin dialect were moved to tears.

A lieutenant who had just grown a beard preemptively asked Zhu Fan for his life:

"His Royal Highness King Qin is so sympathetic to us and others, how can my generation be a coward and afraid of death?"

"I'll go back now and communicate with those Tan people for His Royal Highness King Qin, and there are brothers who are willing to go with me?"

As soon as these words came out, the remaining lieutenants immediately rushed to take the lead.

Zhu Fan had no choice but to agree to everyone's request.

But he still made a guarantee, saying: "Regardless of whether this communication can be successful or not, you can all be rewarded with fifty taels of silver, and the king will also write down the merits of promotion for you." ”

With this promise, these lieutenants are even more courageous.

In the end, it was decided by drawing lots that those people would communicate with the Tan people.

Those men stayed on the ship to act as interpreters for the Tan people who had brought them back.

"His Royal Highness King Qin is growing up very fast!"

The middle-aged man who had been standing in the dark, dressed as palace guards, watched Zhu Fan cleanly dispose of Li Hu, who had tried to make trouble several times.

In a few words, he asked the dozen or so lieutenants to help him communicate with the Tan people.

I couldn't help but praise my companion next to me.

The tall guard nodded when he heard this: "Yes, if it was before, His Royal Highness the King of Qin couldn't say it, he would have killed that Li Hu with a sword." ”

"Even if we help deal with the finishing touches, I'm afraid it won't be possible to mobilize these captains."

"This time, what His Majesty ordered to announce the decree to the Tan people, I guess it will not be done."

The middle-aged guard thought for a moment about the picture painted by his companion.

Nodding and said: "Now His Royal Highness King Qin can restrain the anger in his heart, and he has not only discovered the talent of Zhou Xin, but also collected the hearts of more than a dozen captains. ”

"I can only say that Mr. Lin Che is really a great talent, I don't know why His Majesty didn't put him in the court."

Hearing Lin Che's name, the tall guard suddenly grimaced and reminded solemnly: "Shen Yan, Mr. Name, how can you mention it?" ”

"As for what Your Majesty thinks, it's not something that we little guards can comment on1"

seems to feel that his words are a little too hurtful to the face of his companions.

The tall guard softened his tone and said, "We can't take care of the big guys' affairs. ”

"But as long as we protect His Royal Highness King Qin, we will tell His Majesty about his growth.

"This is already a lot of credit, maybe in the future, I will have the opportunity to listen to Mr. Lin's teachings."

The middle-aged guard realized that he had broken his promise.

Then he conscientiously carried out the task of secretly protecting Zhu Zhang.

Zhu Fan didn't know that his move just now had been highly praised by the palace guards.

The sailors who had just been sent out just now tied their hands and feet with ropes and swam them under the treasure ship.

The people on the ship, with ropes, hoisted the sailors and tanmen to the deck.

Zhu Fan did not go to check the situation of the Tan people, but looked at several sailors.

After discovering that there were no fewer of them, and no one was injured.

He praised them for their watery nature, and then asked them what they wanted.

It's a pity that the sailors' answers are still not thought through.

Zhu Fan didn't urge them, but instead set his eyes on the angry Tan people.

Zhu Fan looked at these Tan people who had been living on the boat all year round, their skin was tanned by the scorching sun, and there were some people with lap legs.

He instructed the lieutenant who remained, "I say, you translate." ”

After getting a response.

Zhu Fan said directly to the point: "This king is the king of Qin of the Ming Dynasty, and he has no ill will towards you. ”

"I came this time to read to you the emperor's decree."

"The Tan people are also my Chinese people, and they should have the same status as Shinong, and they can live ashore at will in the future, and they will never be oppressed by the land people again."

The school captain who acted as the translator was afraid that the people would not understand, so he translated Zhu Zhang's words word by word with the most accurate words.

It's a pity that after their words fell for a long time.

These captured Tan people not only did not have a painful and weeping thanksgiving.

The look of vigilance in his eyes became more and more intense.

Zhu Fan originally wanted to ask if the captains had made a mistake in translation.

But when he saw the Tan people, their hands and feet tied with cowhide bands.

Without saying a word, he squatted down and helped the other party untie the rope.

Zhou Xin almost frightened his soul after seeing this scene, and hurriedly stopped: "Your Highness, these Tan people are wild and untamable, don't..."

However, before Zhou Xin could finish speaking, Zhu Fan untied the rope buckles on the hands and feet of the Tan people in front of him.

Immediately afterwards, he used an unguarded posture to turn his back to the freed Tan people, and helped the others untie the ropes.

Zhou Xin obviously captured the moment when this Tan people regained their freedom.

I clearly wanted to reach out and grab Zhu Rong's neck.

It's just that he saw the other captains, and he didn't know when he pulled out the embroidered spring knife.

Eventually, he took it back and stretched out half of his arm.

Zhu Fan didn't seem to be aware of the danger, or these so-called dangers were within his expectations.

After untying the ropes from the last of the bunkers, he said to them again: "Well, my king, no, I repeat again that I have no ill will towards you. ”

"You don't care who I am, you just need to know that no one will dare to bully you because of your identity from now on."

The interpreter repeated the words, but there was still no response from the Tan people.

Just when Zhu Fan doubted whether the heart-to-heart strategy that Lin Che taught him was useful.

The Tan Min, who had tried to attack him just now, suddenly spit out a few words quickly.

Zhu Fan couldn't understand, so he had to look at the captain in charge of translation.

But the other party had a sad face, as if he didn't know whether to know whether to or not, and translated what this person said.

Zhu Fan was patient and made a guarantee: "Even if you translate, no matter what he says, it's none of your business, if someone wants to ask the guilt afterwards, let him arrest me first." ”

Such a promise of responsibility suddenly made the captain in charge of translation no longer have any scruples.

He hurriedly said: "This Tan people said that they don't need His Majesty's mercy. ”

Zhu Fan listened to the question marks on his head, and couldn't understand the meaning of these words for a while.
