"What a beautiful view on the sea." Masarara was wearing a Ming Guonao body given by Wang Hai, standing on the deck of a modified Ming Guo Haicang ship, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way. Behind him were Masarara's three close servants, Masana Kinisha, Hidemasato Akimoto and Shigemasato Yoshida. The three of them wore Ming Guo's garments, dressed as if they were servants.

Why did Zhengliang appear here? This starts three days ago. At that time, Wang Hai came to seek help from the Luo family. Zhengliang took the opportunity to express his intention to cooperate. Of course, Wang Hai was reluctant to ask for it, but also pointed out that he had a partner in the middle of Ming Dynasty, hoping that Zhengliang could send personnel to the Ming Dynasty with him so that he could continue to discuss cooperation. There was only one meaning, and he agreed to the Luo family, but he was just a small boss and needed the big boss' consent.

Zhengliang immediately said that he would go there in person. As soon as Zhengliang made this decision, not only Wang Hai was surprised, but even the members of the Luo family persuaded each other. Dongxiang Heiji came to persuade him every day. Zhengliang had to use the advantages and disadvantages of the three-inch verbal remarks again and explained the pros and cons to the members.

First of all, although our family has become the number one tycoon on the Higashimatsuura Peninsula, there is still a gap compared to the many families, let alone compared with the famous name of a country. It is imperative to develop trade with Ming and obtain various materials from it. Secondly, the situation around the Luo family is in a stable state, which brings convenience for the head of the family to travel. As long as everyone does their jobs according to Zhengliang's arrangements, then there will be no worries during Zhengliang's absence. Finally, Zhengliang's trip will be as short as half a month, and as slow as one month, the time is still allowed. Besides, who else can speak fluent Ming Mandarin in addition to the head of the family?

So, after a bargaining, the retainers finally agreed to Zhengliang's trip. The price was that Zhengliang had to return to the territory within one month, and followed several bodyguards behind him. Speaking of bodyguards, the most suitable job in the territory is Hunatongzhu. According to the force value, Hunatongzhu has at least 80. Unfortunately, he still has the important task of supervising the navy. So he had to give up. Since Hunatongzhu could not do it, that

He was able to settle for the second best and chose Akimoto Hidemasa and Yoshida Shigemasa, who had temporarily lowered their military strength, were still a suitable candidate. However, after learning about it, Masato Kinoshita was quit. He was depressed and recuperated at home for a while, and had not been able to fulfill his duties as a servant of the head of the family, which made him feel very uneasy, so he insisted on following him and even knelt outside the mansion to beg. In desperation, Masaro had to agree.

After arranging everything about the territory, on October 22, 2019, Masarara announced that she would detour to the Chosho Temple near Nogao Village to pray for the harvest for the territory for the next year. Then, under the escort of everyone, she boarded the merchant ship that Wang Hai was docked in Banya Bay. So Masarara just now enjoyed the sea scenery.

"Hahaha, His Highness Masayoshi is really in great interest." At this time, a loud laugh came from the other side of the deck.

Zheng Liang looked at it. It was the navigator of this ship, Song Wei.

"Brother Song Wei came out to give me some advice on the route?" Zhengliang replied.

"Hahaha, Your Highness Masayoro, these sailors don't need to be guided before they enter the depths of the sea," Song Wei said with a smile.

"Oh? Since that's the case, can Brother Song Wei come out to appreciate the beautiful scenery?" Zhengliang said.

"No. I'm here to pay tribute to my brother who died in the nearby waters," Song Wei replied sadly.

"The person has gone west, Brother Song Wei, please don't be too sad." Zhengliang comforted him. I think the experience of the navigation leader Wang Hai "winds over" from Wang Zhi was extremely miserable.

His father is Song Suqing.

Who is Song Suqing? Song Suqing's original name was Zhu Jiao. He learned singing since childhood. Later, he was loved by Japanese merchants. Because his uncle Zhu Cheng had a business with the merchant Yu Shigoro in 1496, but he was unable to deliver the goods on time. So he sold him to Yu Shigoro to pay off his debts. Yu Shigoro brought Zhu Jiao to the Rimoto and changed his name to Song Suqing. He became a retainer of the Hosokawa clan in the Muromachi shogunate, and engaged in trade activities with the Ming Dynasty.

Originally, the Mingri trade was sent by the Muromachi shogun to the Ming Dynasty in the name of "Ri Ben King", but after the Yoshien Rebellion, the power of the general declined, and the power of the Kinagan was controlled by the Hosokawa clan and the Ouchi clan respectively. The Mingri trade fell into the hands of the Hosokawa clan and the Ouchi clan. The Hosokawa clan held the shogun hostage and formed an alliance with the Sakai merchant; the Ouchi clan formed an alliance with the Hosokawa clan. Song Suqing supported the Hosokawa clan.

In 1510, the Hosokawa clan and the Ouchi clan jointly sent ships to the Ming Dynasty under the name of "Ri Ben Wang Yoshisuke", to support the Ouchi clan and as the envoy. At that time, the Ouchi clan sent two ships and the Hosokawa clan sent one. However, the Hosokawa Takako was unwilling to be at a disadvantage in the Ming Dynasty trade, so they secretly sent Song Suqing to the Ming Dynasty trade first, giving the powerful eunuch Liu Jin, a thousand taels of gold and given flying fish clothes to the flying fish suit. This was unprecedented.

In 1523, Yoshihiko Ouchi used the Kendo Sect as the Takashima as the Takashima and sent the Ming Dynasty again to send the Ai Ship. After learning about this, Takako Hosokawa also used Resaso Luanoka as the Takashima and Suqing as the deputy envoy to send the Ai Ship to the Ming Dynasty. The Ouchi clan held the Kanfu during the Masato period, while the Hosokawa clan held the Kanfu during the Hiroji period. The Kanfu clan held the Kanfu clan was expired and invalid.

Song Suqing's Hosukawa fleet arrived in Ningbo's Maritime Division later than Kendo Sose's Ouchi fleet. However, Song Suqing had already secretly bribed the eunuch of the Maitime Division, and was inspected first. This aroused strong dissatisfaction from Kendo Sose. When the Maitime Division was entertaining guests in the guest hall, the Hosukawa messenger sat on the top of the Ouchi envoy. Therefore, Zongshu raised troops to rebel in anger, led the Ouchi convoy to burn the Hosukawa fleet, attacked the guest hotel, Dongku and other places, killed Luanoka Ruisa, and Song Suqing fled to Shaoxing. Zongshu burned and killed the Ming Dynasty's official army and robbed the Zhejiang commander Liu Jin, who was going to suppress the enemy, kidnapped the commander Yuan Feng, and robbed his ship to the sea. This is the famous Ningbo Rebellion.

Afterwards, Song Suqing was thrown into prison, and one of the ships set up by the Qiandaozong encountered a storm at the sea and drifted into Korea. They were surrounded and suppressed by the Korean government troops. They captured Nakalin and Wanggudoro and 33 others in the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty sent them to Zhejiang to confront Song Suqing and found that the Hosokawa clan's consent was fake, so they were sentenced to death. Other captured members of the Ouchi clan's fleet were also sentenced to death. But soon they all died in the prison.

After this incident, the Ming Dynasty abolished the position of Grand Supervisor of the Maritime Bureau, reduced the scale of trade with the Riben, and led to a surge in the number of Japanese pirates.

After Song Suqing died, as the two sons who stayed in Riben, Song Wei and Song Wei's brothers were taken care of by the Hosokawa clan. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. With the decline of the Hosokawa clan, the two brothers Song Wei were forced to leave home and wander around, and later became pirates. They had heard their father talk about the customs and figures of the Ming Dynasty since they were young, and they had long wanted to see the beautiful scenes of the Ming Dynasty and become pirates waiting for the opportunity to cross the sea to the Ming Dynasty. This is the only way these two brothers thought of.

The struggle is cruel. Before the two brothers could see the glory of the Ming Dynasty, Song Wei's brother was injured and fell into the sea and died in a conflict between pirates. Song Wei was so sad that he was captured by his opponent and brought to the pirate ship as a slave before he escaped. Later, he fled in a pirate conflict. By chance, he actually drifted to Ming Kingdom and was rescued by an old sailor in Wang Zhi's fleet. After that, he lived in Wang Zhi's fleet until the old sailor died of illness and did not leave.

This time, Wang Zhi planned to defect to the merchant of Riben, but Song Wei was indeed unwilling to be the lackey of Riben, so under Wang Hai's persuasion, he resolutely defected to Wang Hai and became the pilot of the merchant ship of Wang Hai.

Today is the deceased of Song Wei's dead brother, and here happens to be the near where his brother fell into the sea. Now, Song Wei is planning to pay homage to his dead brother. He took out several incense, lit it on the strings of the boat, then lowered his head and recited it silently, and then took out sake to sprinkle it into the sea. This is the way for ordinary pirates to pay tribute. Everything is simple, and only hopes that those who die will not be lonely in the depths of the sea, and even give a glass of warm wine to drive away the chills at the bottom of the sea.

After watching for a while, Zhengliang quietly led everyone back to the cabin. At this time, he happened to meet Wang Hai who was about to come out and find Zhengliang.

In a corner of the boat warehouse, the two sat opposite each other.

"You mean you might encounter pirates?" said Zhengliang.

"Yes. Because this time there was a distinguished guest named Zhengliang on the boat, I had to tell you calmly. This time our route was to come out of Xuanjie Beach, go east along the sea, and then arrive at Hangzhou Bay in Ming Kingdom, dock from there, and enter Shaoxing Prefecture, where we are our destination," said Wang Hai.

"Where did the pirates come from?" Zhengliang was more concerned about this. After all, no one wants to meet pirates.

"Before entering Hangzhou Bay, we will pass through some small islands, where pirates often appear," said Wang Hai. "If it goes well, we will pass there without any danger, otherwise we will have to settle down."

Zhengliang thought about it and found that what Wang Hai was talking about was the sea area near the Zhoushan Islands after ri, where there were indeed many small islands. Due to the lack of supervision, these places have become paradises for pirates.

"Does the Ming Navy care about it?" Zhengliang asked. Calculate the time, those famous historical anti-Japanese celebrities have not yet taken office.

"Haha, Your Highness. It's already great that the Ming navy can ensure the stability of Hangzhou Bay," said Wang Hai, "They prefer to charge the fees for passing ships in Hangzhou Bay."

Zhengliang understood as soon as he heard this, it was not that the Ming Dynasty navy had no strength, but that there was no profit to be profitable. They were too lazy to go out to the sea and breeze and rain. They were too lazy to move, so we ships would be in trouble. Of course, this cannot be blamed on the Ming Dynasty navy. After all, the Ming Dynasty has implemented a policy of banning the sea. Once it meets the Ming Dynasty navy, there is only the possibility of being arrested.
