Chapter 118: Deterrence

Ye Chunqiu suddenly laughed.

Wang Hanzhong thought Ye Chunqiu was happy because of his proactive negotiations, so he laughed and urged: "Master, let's talk about a good price, how about it?"

Ye Chunqiu said slowly, "No need, I'm not interested." Ye Chunqiu looked at Wang Hanzhong with a sarcastic meaning in his eyes, and said, "The seeds you bring now are worthless to me."

Wang Hanzhong's face changed slightly. He was a little boy, and then went to Nanyang to do business. He was philanthropist and cunning. After hearing Ye Chunqiu's answer, he couldn't help but sneer: "Oh, since the prince doesn't want it, then there is nothing to say about me, but..."

He deliberately ejaculated and said, "Mr. Isn't he from Ningbo?"

Ye Chunqiu didn't expect that this person had already found out about his background, but he was too lazy to pay attention to him, so he picked up the teacup: "Please."

Wang Hanzhong laughed and said, "Let me finish the words of the students. Do you know that our Ming Dynasty is a rich place? Historically, wealth must not be exposed. Now that the wealth has been revealed, why don't Folang Ji people think about it? In the future, I'm afraid that more Folang Ji people will come here. They travel thousands of miles to make money. This is the same as the students..." Wang Hanzhong narrowed his eyes and looked at Ye Chunqiu, with a shiny light in his eyes, and then said, "But if you can't make money..."

There is obviously a hidden meaning in this sentence. If you can't get money, then you will be killed.

Wang Hanzhong was not worried about what the Ming court would do to him. As his parents' country, Da Ming knew very well how the nobles in the court followed the so-called "holiday of hospitality", so he felt that he was a little more presumptuous and there was nothing to do with it.

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Ye Chunqiu getting up and approaching him. Ye Chunqiu held his hands behind his back and smiled, "Well? What will happen if he can't get money? Ye still wants to ask for advice."

This young man who was a little childish in front of Wang Hanzhong just now was not low in size. Now, in front of Wang Hanzhong, he inexplicably put a lot of pressure on Wang Hanzhong.

Wang Hanzhong was still a little proud of his expression, but suddenly felt a strong oppression on Ye Chunqiu who was walking in front of him. He wanted to sneer and look at Ye Chunqiu, but found that Ye Chunqiu was also looking at him. These eyes were just clear, but now they were filled with a strong murderous intent. The murderous intent was revealed, not just eyes. Although Ye Chunqiu's body was hidden under the python robe, Wang Hanzhong felt that Ye Chunqiu was like a cheetah ready to go, as if the muscles of his body were tensed.

Wang Hanzhong smelled a trace of danger and was a little panicked. His body shivered coldly and said, "What do you want to do?"

Ye Chunqiu looked at him aggressively: "Didn't you hear what you said just now? What I asked is, what would happen if I couldn't get money?"

"I...I..." Wang Hanzhong subconsciously retreated for a moment, but saw Ye Chunqiu suddenly smile at him. This smile actually had a different charm, politeness, and gave people a feeling that it was inviolable.

Wang Hanzhong immediately shouted, "I am Ambassador Folangji, am the envoy of Governor Alfonso, and are your guest..."

"Get out." Ye Chunqiu's eyes flashed, and he spit out two words from his mouth disdainfully.

Wang Hanzhong had no choice but to look at Ye Chunqiu hatefully and leave in a hurry as if he was a little embarrassed.

However, Ye Chunqiu saw it clearly just now. Although Wang Hanzhong was shocked by his power, murderous intent was clearly seen through Wang Hanzhong's eyes.

Ye Chunqiu sat back on the sofa with a smile, thinking about something in his heart, and his expression became deeper and deeper.

……………………

A few days later, Ye Chunqiu was summoned to the palace again. Ye Chunqiu immediately took a carriage and entered the palace to meet him.

Today, Zhu Houzhao was not in the warm pavilion, but summoned several important officials to discuss military opportunities in the Wenwu Tower.

The Wenwu Tower leaned against the Baohe Hall and was an affiliated hall of the Baohe Hall. At this time, the imperial guards here were tight and with a solemn spirit. When Ye Chunqiu arrived, he found that several cabinet ministers, including the Minister of Personnel Zhang Cai, and the British Duke Zhang Maoren, had arrived.

Zhu Houzhao sat behind the imperial case, with a serious expression, listening to Gu Dayong's report: "The market in Ningbo is very depressed. Many wealthy families have fled inland or moved to Nanjing to live. Now there are rumors everywhere outside, and even the capital is not spared. They are all talking about demon soldiers. The ambassador of the Folang Jiren only said that if the court was willing to let the Folang Jiren open a settlement and communicate with the Ming Dynasty, they could cultivate the friendship between the two countries. If they agreed, they would become brotherly countries with the Ming Dynasty. If they did not agree..."

"Don't say it anymore." Zhu Houzhao said angrily: "Is this Folang Jiren so scary? When the Japanese pirates were causing trouble, the ports were not like this. Now, Guangzhou, Quanzhou, Ningbo, and even Songjiang are all like seeing ghosts..."

Zhu Houzhao's face turned pale, and his eyes looked at Ye Chunqiu. His face calmed down a little, but he swept over the ministers and then said, "What did Duke Wei say there? What's the news in Nanjing?"

"The Duke of Wei means that the court should appoint a governor to coordinate the guards and horses of Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Fujian and Guangdong. Only in this way can we respond at any time, otherwise..."

Zhu Houzhao frowned and said, "What do the cabinet say?"

Zhu Houzhao was in a bad mood. The panic between the government and the country spread too fast and too severely. There were a large number of escapees along the southeast coast. That was fine. Now it is said that even Siam, Luzon, and Annan are a little disinterested.

This world is realistic. When others see the weaknesses and weakness of the Ming Dynasty, they will naturally have other thoughts.

Now, the Folang Jiren sent envoys to apologize on the surface and wished to cultivate the eternal good, but in fact, he was nakedly threatening the Ming court.

If the court does not agree, it means that from now on, the Ming Dynasty will always be subject to a huge threat that will be ten times more harmful than the Japanese pirates in the next few dozens or even hundreds of years. Jiangnan and Lingnan are the places where the Ming Dynasty produces grain. If there are repeated troubles, how can it be?

When Zhu Houzhao asked what the cabinet said, the four cabinet ministers were unable to make up for a moment. This was a change that had not been seen in a thousand years. They had digged their minds and could not think of how to deal with it.
