Long nights and many dreams.

The nights in summer are short, but Kong Youde sleeps very well because the boat has already left the sea by night.

He also had a dream at night.

In his dream, he dreamed that he became the founding king.

What is the name of that country?

Zheng State!

That's right, it's Zheng State, because in the Spring and Autumn Period, there was a descendant of the Confucius family surnamed Ji, and he was a descendant of Duke Mu of Zheng. The country built by Kong Youde was of course the "Zheng State".

As for whether he was a descendant of Duke Mu of Zheng, this is not important. What is important is to find a prominent ancestor for yourself.

Only with a prominent ancestor can he become the founding king.

Become an emperor!

Kong Youde, who was in high spirits, walked out of the cabin. He looked at the sea and the fleet around him. There were fifty ships, and there were tens of thousands of soldiers on the ship. Zheng State is really powerful!

There are only soldiers but no women, it doesn't matter. When it comes to Papua, you can directly steal local women as your wife and concubines when you go to the place. Papua is located on an island further east of Timor Island. That island is very large, even so large that it will be mistaken for a continent. Kong Youde once heard Dutch merchants mention that island, which is rarely visited by people, and only savages live on the island. Not to mention that he leads tens of thousands of troops, even if he only leads a few hundred troops, he can build a foundation on that island.

By that time, he would be the emperor of "Da Zheng". No, he could not be the emperor, he would be the king of the country and the emperor. If he annoyed the Ming Dynasty, it would be a bad thing.

The world is so big, it is true, but the Ming Dynasty is too powerful and holds grudges. Without decades, they will definitely not forget the grudges they had back then.

"When I die, when our son and grandson become the king, then the Ming Dynasty will almost forget the old things. At that time, Zheng State can go to the Ming Dynasty openly to pay tribute!"

Of course, at that time, we will definitely send envoys to the Ming Dynasty to apologize and apologize. Anyway, you can be a grandson as you can. What's the point of being a grandson for a few days? As long as the Ming Dynasty forgives it, Zheng State will be a legitimate Zheng State. With the recognition of the Ming Dynasty's father, the Kong family can enjoy the glory and wealth of generations.

This...how great!

This day is beautiful.

It's beautiful to think about it. If it can be realized, it's really God's blessing.

When he was thinking so in his heart, his eyes turned to the distance, he unexpectedly discovered that there was a shadow of land in the distance.

I have been out of the sea overnight, so I shouldn’t be able to see the land!

Now I not only see it, but what's going on?

While he was wondering, a short and sturdy man with dark face came over.

"Matsuda, you're here."

The person who came was Nobuichi Matsuda, Kong Youde's coat slave, who had always been deeply trusted. However, today he seemed different from usual. When he came with one hand on his back, he did not kneel in front of Kong Youde and did not greet him.

Why did this dog slave forget the rules?

Just when Kong Youde was a little dissatisfied with Matsuda Nobuichi forgot the rules, the hand he was carrying had turned around. It was not empty, but a double-barrel short gun.

Two black muzzles pointed at Prince Kong Youde Kong's forehead!

In an instant, Kong Youde was stunned. What is this for? Without saying anything, he directly hit the forehead with a short gun. What is this for?

"Matsuda! You, what are you doing?"

Kong Youde screamed in a hurry, and what made him even more lying was that the people around him seemed to have not seen this scene and had no reaction at all. Not only did the sailors, but even his slaves stood there, watching the master being pushed against his forehead by the slaves with a short gun.

"master."

Matsuda smiled:

"Master, there is a saying in the Tang Dynasty: "Home and wife are birds in the same forest, and they fly away when the disaster comes." This is true for both husband and wife, and you and I are just master slaves. Don't blame me, if you don't do it, go with me if you don't do it!"

Kong Youde, who forced himself to calm down, snorted.

"A walk? Where to go?"

Kong Youde smiled and said:

"Of course I'm going to Xiaguan to see the crown prince."

The Crown Prince in Xiaguan is finished!

In an instant, Kong Youde's heart was cold. Matsuda Nobuichi, a damn slave, must use his head as a confession, and he will turn against the Ming Dynasty and hand him over to Zhu Hezhen to the Ming Dynasty. What other good ending can he have?

"What if I don't go?"

Gripping his teeth, Kong Youde closed his eyes and said.

"Matsuda, if you have the ability, just fire the gun! No matter what I say, I will be a soldier for a lifetime. Can you still be afraid of you, a traitor?"

"The prince is indeed a good man!"

With a smile, Matsuda Shinichi winked at the left and right, and immediately two people went up and grabbed Kong Youde's wrist and even put his waist knife down.

Although he was tough and said, Kong Youde did not resist. It was not that he did not resist, but that he knew that resistance had no meaning. Why did the people around him not move? It must have been him who bought it.

This traitor!

It’s all my fault for not knowing people!

Seeing that Kong Youde allowed himself to subdue, Matsuda put away the musket and said to Kong Youde with a smile:

"Prince Kong, you offended me, but you don't have to worry. The young people just want to use you as a stepping stone. With you, the young people will go to Xiaguan and show their faces to the crown prince. At that time, the young people will definitely remember the prince's favor!"

grace?

If you use my head as a sign of a name, can you still press it back if your head is chopped?

I am dead, you remember that my kindness is useless!

No one remembers my kindness for these bastards? When I reached this point, I was all watching this dog slave bully his master.

Kong Youde, who had betrayed the Ming Dynasty, finally tasted the taste of being betrayed. He thought that his head was actually bleeding from these dog slaves! But he still had to work hard to win the interests of the Qing Dynasty. He was a loyal slave of the Qing Dynasty! So he said calmly:

"It's okay for me to go to Xiaguan. You have to take my head as a letter of honor. But I'll ask myself that I'm not bad to you over the past few years. If you want wealth and prosperity, I understand. As the saying goes, people don't care for themselves, and heaven will be punished by the earth. But for so many years, we still have some feelings. Prince, you just want my head. But you have to leave me behind. Prince, I can go there, but Tingxun cannot go. Akita, for so many years, he treats you as a brother. After leaving someone for the Kong family, even if you go underground, Prince, I will remember your kindness."

Looking at Akita with a gaze, Kong Youde's eyes were full of prayers. They could not both die in this place.

"Prince, the young man knows that you have been very good at treating the young man for so many years. So..."

Akita sighed and said emotionally.

"How can you bear to separate your flesh and blood? How good is the whole family together? Do you think this is the reason?"

"I'm your uncle's Akita..."

Kong Youde cursed with a wide eyes wide open and relaxed.

"You ungrateful dog bastard, can you forget the kindness I have been to you for so many years?"

Facing Kong Youde's furious furious, Akita just laughed.

"Of course I remember your kindness, so I have to repay you like this."

Say it, Akita said.

"Go, go to Xiaguan!"
