Chapter 825 With ulterior motives (third update)

As soon as Liu Guoneng heard His Majesty's order, he quickly stopped Changle's guarding action, jumped off his horse, walked to Aibi Pavilion and stood in front of him, waved his hand and said: "Untie!"

When the Changle guard heard this, he was a little stunned. Just now he saw that Liu Shen was not polite to these Hongyi. Why did he want to loosen his bonds again in the blink of an eye? Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at the guard who had just bitten his ear with Liu Guoneng.

Not all Jin Yiwei wear flying fish suits and embroidered spring knives. Ma San had just arrived, and he was far away in Fuzhou, let alone one. Therefore, the current attire was that of Liu Guoneng's personal guard, which was convenient for him.

"Untie, do you hear that?" Liu Guoneng saw Changle's guard was stunned, so he couldn't help but increase his tone and said a little impatiently.

Changle's guard came to his senses and quickly stepped forward to loosen his bonds. His men also tied up other Hongyi.

Liu Guoneng tried his best to adjust his mentality, suppressing his contempt and dissatisfaction with these barbarians in his heart, and trying his best to soften his tone and asked Hong Yi, who knew Ming Dynasty Mandarin in front of him, "Tell me, it's okay to go ashore. Why did you come back halfway and accuse me, Daming, I will listen to the truth!"

Aibi Ge was a little stunned. The general was so aggressive just now that he even whipped himself. Why did he change his attitude and become so reasonable in the blink of an eye? When he heard the question, he opened his mouth to speak, but suddenly found that the words he heard seemed difficult to say. Those in the government did not seem to explicitly say that the Ming governor was going to betray his promise and do something to his side.

"Huh? Why don't you have anything to say?" Liu Guoneng suppressed his temper and asked again. If this wasn't the emperor's intention, he wouldn't bother to say a word to these ghosts.

Aibi Ge was urged by him, and she quickly said: "Why did you lead so many troops to the port? Do you have ulterior motives and want to attack us? Tell me?"

When Liu Guoneng heard this, he led the army and rushed over. He was worried about these red barbarians and wanted to strengthen the defense of Taiping Port. However, if he said this, it would still arouse Hongyi's suspicion, and it seemed to be somewhat inconsistent with the meaning conveyed by the emperor.

Thinking this way, he couldn't help but froze, not knowing how to reply.

At this moment, Ma San suddenly shouted: "This is the land of my Ming Dynasty. Do I still need to report to you Hongyi about the mobilization of my Ming army? Do you think this is a colony of your Dutch?"

As soon as these words came out, Aibi Ge was immediately speechless. Indeed, this is their territory, and they can do whatever they want, so what can happen? Of course, if this is a Dutch colony, then of course it must be reported. To mobilize the army without permission is to rebel!

Liu Guoneng was shocked when he heard this, and he couldn't help but glance at Ma San. He naturally understood Ma San. It was true that he had worked as a government servant before, but more often than not he lived for the sake of food, and even became a pirate. How could someone like him say such a thing?

Thinking like this, he suddenly realized something was wrong. People on his side called these ghost-like people Hongyi, but just now Ma San called them Dutch. Thinking of this, he suddenly realized that he was probably inseparable. This sentence was said by the emperor, so it's no wonder!

Aibi Ge was speechless, and wanted to talk about the news about Sun Zhongcheng. But similarly, those things seemed to be the internal affairs of the Ming Dynasty, so how could she be qualified to make irresponsible remarks?

Seeing him like this, Liu Guoneng was happy, and his mood improved a lot: "I am suspicious! If you really want to be like this, why do you come to do business with me, Ming Dynasty? Since you are here, you must abide by Ming Dynasty's rules, so everything Everything is fine! As long as the robbers come, I, the Ming Dynasty, will not be lenient!"

Hearing this, Aibi Ge couldn't help but think back to what happened in the past. It seemed that they came to do business, but the Ming Dynasty did not agree, so the fleet at that time went to occupy Penghu, built a city and plundered the sea. Then the Ming Dynasty sent troops to attack, during which it did use treacherous means to deceive the envoys to the shore and then turned ruthless. But this time, in compliance with the previous agreement of the governor of the Ming Dynasty, grain was transported from Nanyang for trade.

Thinking of this, Aibi Ge felt that she might be too nervous this time.

Liu Guoneng looked at his expression and basically guessed what he was thinking, so he said to him: "I will send someone to send you to see Mr. Zhongcheng again."

After he finished speaking, he pointed to the sea and said: "Besides, if they continue to show hostility like this, if something happens, I won't be able to blame Daming!"

For these Dutch people, they really didn’t want their finally successful trade with the Ming Dynasty to go to waste, so Abigail nodded and agreed repeatedly with a smile: “Yes, yes!”

After a pause, he hesitated for a while, then looked at Liu Guoneng and asked: "General, can you send someone to go with me to explain something to the Governor? I don't know why the fleet is like this. It stands to reason. He said, I haven’t even boarded the ship, so I can’t figure out why this is happening?”

When Liu Guoneng heard this, he frowned. There seems to be something fishy about this matter. These envoys were caught on the shore and did not have time to send the message to the ship. Why did those warships also react like this? Is it because they were all red barbarians and had the same idea in advance?

While he was thinking about it, he suddenly saw Ma San coming over and whispering: "Your Majesty has a decree for the general to go there in person to show his sincerity. Those Dutch people don't dare to do anything to the general. They have come thousands of miles away. The main thing is I’m here to ask for money.”

When Liu Guoneng heard this, he had no choice. He glanced at Ma San who shrank back, then turned to Aibi Ge and said, "I will go with you in person, how about it?"

"No!" Upon hearing this, Changle's guard quickly dissuaded Aibi Ge before he could speak, "The thoughts of these Hongyi are unpredictable. What if..."

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Liu Guoneng, who said righteously: "Why not? This is the land of my Ming Dynasty, and it is the place I am responsible for guarding. I want to see it, really If you have ulterior motives, who could it be?"

After hearing this, Aibi Ge quickly promised: "No, no, there is no ulterior motive, it's just a misunderstanding. I guarantee with my life that nothing will happen!"

Seeing this, the Changle garrison could only admire General Liu's courage. No wonder he rose from a rogue in the north to become a general in the Ming Dynasty! Only Ma San knew that Liu Guoneng had no choice! Regardless of whether he wants it or not, he has to go!

So, a small bow boat carried Aibi Ge, Liu Guoneng, and Ma San to the Dutch flagship on the sea.

On the deck, the Dutch fleet commander, Hans Putmans, who took office early due to the butterfly effect, looked at the few people climbing up the ladder with some confusion.

There are still 9 due.
