Chapter 199 I don't like him
Early the next morning, before dawn, Zhu Zhanchang's fleet of warships left Temasek's harbor first.

Seeing such a scene, Chen Zuli sneered: "Da Ming's grandson, he is really a treacherous person. He just wanted to take advantage of the fisherman, hehe, I, Chen Zuli, didn't think that I could try it out in this life and have the opportunity to be a king, no, In the future, I will also be the emperor."

"Is everyone ready?"

"Big brother, everything is ready, but we haven't found any trace of Sun Wu."

"Didn't find it?" Chen Zuli was a little puzzled.

It stands to reason that Sun Hu is on Temasek Island, how could he not be found?Did he get the news ahead of time and run away?

"Wait." Chen Zuli alerted his subordinates to stop, while he frowned and thought.

But can't think of a reason.

"Brother, are you really not going to do it?" Chen Zuli's men urged.

Chen Zuli thought about it for ten minutes, and at the urging of his subordinates, he clenched his fist and knocked on the table: "Don't worry."

"Sun Hu, the prime minister of the Kingdom of Malacca, endangered the people and threatened the king. Today, we will raise troops to the side of Qingjun." The excuse for raising troops that he had thought of for a long time was shouted out.

It must be said that the excuses that the pirates thought were quite brief.

Countless pirates poured into the streets and alleys one after another, talking about the side of Qing Jun, but seeing which pirates could let go of the people's money, most of them ran into the houses to burn, kill and loot.

This is their usual way of doing things. It is impossible to change in a short time, and Chen Zuli does not have this ability.

You can bring bandits, but not soldiers.

……

Flying Henan Man

The sudden departure in the early morning caused Sun Hu, the Prime Minister of the Malacca Kingdom, who had just arrived on the ship, to be stunned.

"Your Highness, what are you doing?"

Last night, Zhu Zhanchang negotiated with Sun Hu to invite him to his Flying Henan People number because of important matters, and then dragged on for time and kept talking to him about buying Temasek.

He was not allowed to get off the boat even after tossing and chasing, until the early morning, the steam warship was directly activated and took him away.

"Prime Minister Sun, don't panic, sit down and have a cup of morning tea to warm up."

Seeing Zhu Zhanchang's unhurried appearance, Sun Hu felt that Zhu Zhanchang wanted to coerce him to hand over Temasek because the negotiation failed, and there was anger in his eyes. He didn't expect His Royal Highness Zhujiang County to be such a person. .

He sat back at the table with dissatisfaction, and said neither humble nor arrogant: "His Royal Highness Zhujiang County, if you want to threaten my life and ask me to hand over Temasek, then His Highness's calculus may be in vain, and my Sun Wu's life is comparable. Go to Temasek."

Sun Hu's words made Zhu Zhanchang particularly appreciate: "Why does the Prime Minister think of me so much, how can I threaten you, I just want to invite you to see today's Chaoyang together."

"Stop joking, Your Highness, my king is still in Temasek, I'm afraid that the king will not be able to handle things without me in Anli."

"Do you think he is a child?"

Sun Hu said sternly: "The old king has a kindness to me, and I will protect me in everything."

"Tsk tsk, you treat him as a child, but he doesn't treat himself as a child." Zhu Zhanchang motioned for Mu Bin to hand over a letter to Sun Hu.

It was Amway's letter to Chen Zuli, but it was not the original, but an excerpt.

"This letter was sent by King Anli the other day and asked me to give it to Chen Zuli in secret. Of course, the letter has been handwritten to Chen Zuli. This is an excerpt. You don't have to believe it."

Sun Hu opened the letter, and his eyes widened as he read it. He couldn't believe the words in it. Although it was not An Li's words, he and Amway got along day and night, and he understood Amway's way of writing.

"Oh, by the way, King Anri speaks a lot, so he actually knows the content of our conversation. He promised that as long as I don't help Chen Zuli to kill you and help him seize the actual control of the kingdom of Malacca, Temasek will be free of charge. give me."

"So, Your Highness, are you trying to kill me?" Sun Hu laughed miserably, as if he didn't care.

He was entrusted by the old king and assisted Anli, who was less than eight years old at the time, for so many years. Anli was a radical person and had a childish personality, so Sun Hu did not let him govern himself. Lai Sun Hu acted arrogantly, which has exceeded the responsibility of a prime minister. As a king, he was very aggrieved.

When a child grows up, he always has his own ideas. As a young king with some "brilliant talents", Anri is obviously not willing to live under others.

However, his own vision and ability are really limited. It is not that he is not allowed to take charge of the government, but that he has tried some things and dealt with it in a mess. How can Sun Hu be assured of handing over such a country to such a reckless, ambitious but incompetent of the little king.

He was going to let Anri continue to grow for a while, and when he was older, he should be much better off doing things more securely.

But Anri didn't think so.

No young person will feel that something is wrong, that he is incompetent, and only feels that it is caused by external forces. Maybe when others look back in middle age, they will understand their mistakes when they were young, but he can't wait.

Seeing in the letter that Anli was going to join forces with Chen Zuli to kill himself in Temasek, Sun Hu was heartbroken and tore up the letter.

"His Royal Highness Zhujiang County, this must be the king who was tricked by a traitor. Please send me back. I will advise the king."

Sun Hu is still very loyal to the Kingdom of Malacca.

"Prime Minister Sun Hu, the only way to go back at this time is to die."

"I will be able to take Chen Zuli with the soldiers."

"Do you think this letter can be delivered to me, do you not have Anri among your soldiers? Maybe Anri may have a lot of people in positions like generals."

Sun Hu was silent, thought for a moment and asked, "Your Highness, since our king promised to send Temasek to you, why did you bring me on board, which means you saved me in disguise, if you still look at us For the Tribute of the Kingdom of Malacca to Daming over the years, I hope you can send troops to help us.”

"It's tempting for Anri to give me Temasek, but I don't like you kings, and I don't like the company of pirates."

"Pirates are cruel and vicious by nature. They can't believe what they say, let alone make an alliance with them. The same is true of your king, a fool who can sell his own country's land and join forces with pirates."

"Me, I don't like it."

Sun Hu was puzzled: "Then, Your Highness, you not only helped King Anli deliver letters, but also saved me. What is your intention?"

"We Daming hope to get along well with everyone since the sea ban has been imposed. It's just an important place like Temasek. I have to hold it in my hand to feel at ease, but the Kingdom of Malacca is next to Temasek after all. If the ruler of the Kingdom of Malacca is a pirate and a A stupid king, there will be more friction in the future, and he will have to fight a war."

"I have always loved peace. If I don't fight, I won't fight. Of course, if I fight, the grass will be wiped out."

Zhu Zhanchang said here and looked at Sun Hu's doubtful eyes that didn't believe he was a pacifist, smiled slightly, and continued.

"King Anli is unwilling to be subordinate to your regent prime minister, so he does not hesitate to unite with pirates, sell his own national interests, and let the pirates be prime ministers. In the future, Daming will also oppress him. Will he be unwilling to live under Daming's place? Let's join forces with others to stab Daming at a critical moment, of course, you can also say that these are the excuses I made, and the most important reason is that sentence, I don't like Anli."

"So His Highness wants us to kill each other?" Sun Hu asked with a cold face.

"Prime Minister Sun, you are a smart person, don't you understand when I say this?"

Sun Hu laughed at himself: "A bold guess, His Highness doesn't like our king, but he still likes me?"

"Yes." Zhu Zhanchang answered succinctly without hesitation.

Compared with King Anri, it is obvious that Sun Hu is a better collaborator. He has his own principles. After inquiring about him, he also has a good reputation, and his work is stable and reliable. This is a better partner.

Sun Hu was able to sort things out now.

"So Your Highness clearly has a plan to stop Chen Zuli and our king, but Your Highness pushes the boat along the way, allowing the rebellion to appear, and letting Chen Zuli's pirates reveal their conspiracy, forcing me to be the enemy of King Anli, and then Your Highness can compete with snipe and clam, and the fisherman will benefit? "

Zhu Zhanchang did not deny Sun Hu's words.

Sun Hu looked at the young man in front of him again. He looked immature, good-looking, dressed as a weak scholar, holding a fan with a calm demeanor, but everything he did had a purpose. He didn't care whether he fought or not, because it was not his. People, he used all available means, although some were obtained by chance, but everything was moving towards his goal.

His first thought at this time was: it would be great if our King Anri had this talent.

"Da Ming is so strong and prosperous, it should be." Sun Hu said this sentence after a long silence.

"I'll take it as you compliment me."

Zhu Zhanchang looked at the blue sky and white clouds in a good mood, beckoned to Chu Er and said, "Go and call Miss Cao to come out and see the scenery together."

Sun Hu originally thought that Zhu Zhanchang was going to negotiate with him at this time, but Zhu Zhanchang didn't say a word. Sun Hu strode forward: "Your Highness, will you send troops to help if you give Temasek to Daming?"

"Now, I shouldn't have come to negotiate terms with you, but you have to ask me with your terms, if you are willing to send troops. Of course, the longer you delay, the more likely Temasek Island will be occupied by pirates, as well as yours. Little King, do you think a pirate like Chen Zuli is willing to be a prime minister or a king, of course Anli wants to kill you, so it is understandable that you let him die."

"No." Sun Hu lowered his head and said, "To be entrusted by others, to be loyal to others, although he wants to kill me, I can't bear him."

After saying this, Sun Hu thumped and knelt down. Cao Xinyue, who had just walked out, was shocked and hid behind the door to watch.

"I urge His Royal Highness the Prince of Zhujiang County to send troops to rescue the King of Malacca. I would like to give Temasek in return, and half of the silver from the treasury can be returned to His Highness."
