Takasugi Shinsaku had so much suffering in his heart that he couldn't express it.
The three soldiers in the camp were simply gangsters and bastards. He had already taken off his clothes and was completely naked. However, the three soldiers actually stood in front of him and carefully examined him. They even touched him all over. What? No detail was missed, especially after his body was exposed and he was despised by the three of them, which made Takasugi Shinsaku even more painful.
In response, Takasugi Shinsaku could only swallow it.
The attendant followed Takasugi Shinsaku, feeling secretly sad and completely hurt.
This different kind of treatment made both of them feel extremely uncomfortable.
Su Lei watched the words and guessed what happened to the two people. He was happy in his heart and led the two of them towards the flagship in large strides. After boarding the flagship, Su Lei quickly led the two of them to Li Zhen and saluted: " Your Majesty, Takasugi Shinsaku is here." He winked and smiled, and Li Zhen knew that Takasugi Shinsaku must have received "friendly" treatment.
"sit."
Li Zhen waved his hand and motioned for Takasugi Shinsaku to sit down.
Takasugi Shinsaku bowed respectfully and then carefully sat down. His attendant stood behind him, his head slightly lowered, his eyes and nose looking at his heart, without saying a word.
Li Zhen said: "You want to see me, what's the matter with me?"
Takasugi Shinsaku immediately straightened his body and said seriously: "Your Majesty, I have an unkind request. I would like to ask you to go to Japan and open a road to self-improvement for Japanese people with lofty ideals."
There was hope in his eyes, and he was eager to invite Li Zhen to go.
Li Zhen smiled lightly and said unhurriedly: "Before you met me, Noda Yoo had already arrived in Nanjing to meet me. Noda Yoo also hoped that I would go to Japan to open a road to self-improvement for the people of the shogunate. You guys They all come to me, how should I choose? Why should I choose you? To put it more vulgarly, why should I help Japan?"
Takasugi Shinsaku was well prepared and said in an orderly manner: "The Qing Dynasty and Japan are separated by a river and are neighbors. There is an old saying in China that distant relatives are not as good as close neighbors. With the development of Japan, it can serve as a barrier to the east of the Qing Dynasty and ensure the Qing Dynasty. Not affected, this is the neighbor the Qing Dynasty has made good."
After a pause, Takasugi Shinsaku continued: "The officials of the shogunate have rigid ideas, and their relationships are even more complicated, with countless powerful families involved. If you help them, it will definitely be a waste of wisdom, because you have given them opportunities, but But they are busy fighting for power and profit without thinking. I think that you helping us is the best choice."
After finishing speaking, Takasugi Shinsaku looked at Li Zhen expectantly, his heart pounding non-stop.
Everything depends on Li Zhen's words.
Li Zhen continued: "The truth is like this, it's quite right."
Takasugi Shinzuo said: "My lord, have you agreed?"
"well……"
Suddenly, Li Zhen sighed, shook his head and sighed.
Takasugi Shinsaku immediately said: "My lord, why are you sighing?"
Li Zhen said: "When I was in Nanjing, Noda Yoo paid a visit to the king and stated that the Japanese royal family was willing to marry the eldest princess, and also gave Noda Yoo's two younger sisters. Noda was so kind, which made me a little embarrassed."
Takasugi Shinsaku cursed secretly in his heart, he didn't expect Noda to be so cruel.
The princess of the royal family actually married Li Zhen. Takasugi Shinsaku had met the eldest princess of the royal family. She was absolutely beautiful and gentle as water. She was the object of Takasugi Shinsaku's admiration. Unexpectedly, she would marry Li Zhen.
For a time, Takasugi Shinsaku's anger towards Noda filled his chest.
Japan's development and strength cannot be achieved through women.
However, Noda Yoo used the eldest princess of the royal family to gain Li Zhen's trust, which made Takasugi Shinsaku very angry. Anyone with wisdom understands that the woman married off is insignificant and will never affect the political situation. At most, it will only be short-lived. Peace, and the eldest princess will certainly not be able to influence Li Zhen's decision.
This move by Noda Yoo was a big failure.
However, even if Takasugi Shinsaku disagrees, the matter of the eldest princess marrying Li Zhen is still a big problem. Takasugi Shinsaku is stumped. His eyes keep rolling, thinking of ways to persuade Li Zhen. At this time, Takasugi Shinsaku is behind him. The attendant bent down and whispered a few words in Takasugi Shinsaku's ear.
Suddenly, Takasugi Shinsaku's eyes lit up.
With strong confidence on his face, he said: "Your Majesty, cooperation requires the word 'sincerity'. Only by being frank can long-term cooperation be achieved. Noda Yoo gave two sisters to the Prince, but there is one thing that the Prince does not know. ."
"Oh, what's the matter?" Li Zhen asked.
Takasugi Shinsaku said: "Noda Yoo is a scum. He had an affair with one of his sisters and raped his sister early. This matter is known to everyone. If the prince does not believe it, he can send someone to verify it. , If what I tell is a lie, Your Majesty does not need to cooperate with our rebels, because it is not worth it. Noda Yoo's character is like this, and the shogunate is also a male thief and a female prostitute. Your Majesty, there is no benefit at all from cooperating with them, and it is a waste of command, so Please, Your Majesty, cooperate with us."
After hearing this, Li Zhen's heart skipped a beat.
Damn, I almost picked up a second-hand item.
This Noda Yoo is really shameless, even willing to give up his own woman. However, it is impossible for Li Zhen to deny Noda Yoo just because of Takasugi Shinsaku's words, because Li Zhen doesn't care about princesses or sisters. These are very important to Li Zhen. There is no temptation for Li Zhen. What Li Zhen cares about is what he can get from it and how much benefit he can get.
Li Zhen leaned back on the back of the chair, put his left hand on the armrest, and put his right hand on his knees. He closed his eyes slightly and pondered about the shogunate and the overthrow of the shogunate. Li Zhen really didn't want to go to Japan, but the fighting between the two sides was getting increasingly fierce. , this allowed Li Zhen to see an opportunity. Li Zhen wanted to make the fight between the two sides more intense and consume Japan's vitality.
After a long time, Li Zhen opened his eyes and had already thought of a countermeasure in his mind.
Takasugi Shinsaku looked expectant, waiting for Li Zhen to speak.
Li Zhengang was about to speak, but Zheng Zaoru hurried over and whispered something in Li Zhen's ear. After hearing this, Li Zhen's eyes were filled with expectation, and the smile on his face became brighter, and he said: "Invite people up. "
"yes."
Zheng Zaoru turned around and left, and quickly got off the battleship.
Li Zhen's eyes fell on Takasugi Shinsaku and said: "Your acquaintance is here."
"acquaintance."
Hearing this, Takasugi Shinsaku was stunned for a moment. Immediately, Takasugi Shinsaku's expression changed drastically, because the only person who could be considered an acquaintance by Li Zhenguan was Noda Yoo. Obviously, Noda Yoo followed the envoy to Kaohsiung, Taiwan and couldn't wait. He wanted to see Li Zhen. At this moment, Takasugi Shinsaku felt a strong sense of crisis in his heart.
Li Zhen has not made his position clear yet, which makes Takasugi Shinsaku even more embarrassed.
Takasugi Shinsaku probed: "Your Majesty, is this Noda?"
"Smart." Li Zhen chuckled and praised: "The person who came is indeed Noda Yoo. It seems that he has received the news about the end of the Taiwan War and rushed over to finalize the result."
Takasugi Shinsaku looked serious and began to think about how to defeat Noda.
