Chapter 1295: Unlucky Xu Hai (Part 1)

Chapter 1295 Unlucky Xu Hai (Part 1)

When Zhu Pingan sent away the **** who announced the decree, and continued to inspect the construction of the anti-Japanese sentry tower with Liu Dadao and others, the Matsuura family of Hirado daimyo of the Hizen Kingdom in the northwest of the Wa Kingdom across the sea welcomed a guest from the Ming Dynasty. To be precise, it was a hostage from the Ming Dynasty, a monk with an ordinary appearance and a gloomy face.

The monk hostage is Xu Hai. This Xu Hai is not that Xu Hai, he is not Xu Hai, the official minister who came to Jingnan more than ten days to inspect the corruption case of Zhu Pingan's collusion with grain merchants, but the Japanese pirate Xu Hai.

The treatment Xu Hai received in the Matsuura family was not high, and the Matsuura family did not treat him as an honored guest, and the houses they lived in were all the houses of the Matsuura family servants. He is not even allowed to eat fish fillets produced by the island country, and he has no freedom. There are always two samurai from the Matsuura family watching him, which is normal. After all, he is just a hostage now.

The reason why Xu Hai is now a hostage of the Matsuura family actually started with his assassination of One Piece, no, it was King Hui of Jinghai—Wang Zhi.

Xu Hai’s reasons for assassinating Wang Zhi are very complicated. First, the ideas are different. Wang Zhi has always had great expectations for the imperial court, and he intends to recruit peace, to replace Japan's tributary position, to trade with Ming Dynasty, and to monopolize Daming's overseas trade. It is to pursue no-cost business, what kind of trade, doing business still needs costs and risks, how can there be robbery, no capital, and all the profits after robbing. When Wang Zhi restrained the piracy of Japanese pirates under his command, Xu Hai led the Japanese pirates to attack the coast from time to time, and was severely reprimanded by Wang Zhi. Second, dissatisfaction with treatment. Xu Hai has great ambitions and considers himself to be very capable. He heard from his mother that on the night of his birth, his mother dreamed of the Sirius in his arms. Xu Hai often thought to himself that Sirius was in his arms. How could I be a mortal? ! But Wang Zhi didn't give him a status that matched him. Wang Zhi’s subordinates are Wang Qiwuhai. No, they are mainly divided into seven captains. The representative captains are Mao Haifeng and Xu Yuanliang from Zhejiang, Xu Weixue from Anhui, and Ye Zongman from Fujian. Xu Yuanliang and the others, in his opinion, Mao Haifeng only relied on being Wang Zhi's adoptive son, and Xu Yuanliang and others were short-witted, so he asked Wang Zhi many times, expressing his desire to be a captain of the ship. But Wang Zhi never agreed. Third, be instigated by others. His uncle Xu Weixue secretly instigated Xu Hai to assassinate Wang Zhi many times. His uncle Xu Weixue was originally Wang Zhi's entrepreneurial partner. When the stall was small, the cooperation between the two parties was very pleasant, and there was no superiority or inferiority. He just became the captain of Wang Zhixia's ship. Wang Zhi ate meat, and Xu Weixue could only drink soup. Why, everyone is the founder, why you eat meat and I drink soup, why you want to give orders to me and I can only obey, Xu Weixue is unwilling to make profits, and his power is controlled by Wang Zhi alone, and he has been trying to kill Wang Zhi, Replace Wang Zhi's position. Therefore, Xu Weixue secretly instigated Xu Hai to assassinate Wang Zhi many times, so that he could take the opportunity to rise to power.

Of course, freezing to three feet does not happen overnight. There are many other reasons why Xu Hai assassinated Wang Zhi, but the trigger was a woman—a legendary woman—Xu Hai’s woman, Wang Cuiqiao.

Wang Cuiqiao. Gender: Female. Occupation: In the past, he was engaged in the ancient skin and meat business, and he was a famous Jiangnan oiran; now he is Xu Hai's regular wife who brought back eight sedan chairs. Origin: Daughter of an official in the north, her father was an official, and later her father was dismissed because of a crime. She has the heroic spirit of a northern woman, her character is resolute, her actions are straightforward, her appearance and personality are in great contrast, so she is famous by the Qinhuai River, and she was the most famous oiran by the Qinhuai River at that time. Once, when I went to the home of a high-ranking official to do business, I encountered Japanese pirates on the way and was captured alive by the Japanese pirates. The Japanese pirates dedicated Wang Cuiqiao to their leader, Xu Hai. Xu Hai fell in love at first sight with Wang Cuiqiao, who came from a famous family, noble temperament, knowledgeable and reasonable, and had a rough life experience. He married Wang Cuiqiao as his wife in eight sedan chairs. A well-known and well-known oiran, and a rising star in the Japanese pirate world, the combination of the two is not lacking in traffic, and it was a good story in the Japanese pirate circle at that time.

However, Wang Cuiqiao's fame spread so far that it reached the ears of Mao Haifeng, Wang Zhi and others.

The 31st year of Jiajing was Wang Zhi's 50th birthday. Wang Zhi's adopted son Mao Haifeng organized a grand birthday for his adoptive father in Ligang, Zhoushan. Please." Xu Hai's wife, Wang Cuiqiao, sang and danced to add to the fun, and all the Japanese pirates were clamoring, so Xu Hai had no choice but to agree. Wang Cuiqiao deserved to be the king of the Qinhuai River, a song and dance, and a surprise birthday banquet, captivated all the Japanese pirates, even Wang Zhi couldn't help being moved by it, so Wang Cuiqiao went forward to pour wine to celebrate his birthday.

After the birthday banquet on this day, there were rumors in the pirate circle that Wang Zhi intended to accept Wang Cuiqiao as his concubine.

This is the hatred of taking his wife.

Xu Hai had no doubts after hearing this, and felt great hatred in his heart. At the birthday banquet, Wang Zhi asked Wang Cuiqiao to come forward to pour wine, and Xu Hai already secretly hated him. Now he heard that Wang Zhi wanted to accept Wang Cuiqiao as his concubine, and his hatred was even more difficult to appease.

The hatred of killing one's father, the hatred of taking one's wife, these are the hatreds that men cannot share.

Thus, Xu Hai, after his uncle Xu Weixue instigated it again, proceeded to assassinate Wang Zhi.

Nevertheless, Wang Zhi has been licking blood from the edge of a knife to this day, so how can he be easily assassinated? Xu Hai's assassination was discovered by Wang Zhi during the preparation stage, and Wang Zhi got all the stolen goods before the assassination started.

After Xu Hai’s assassination failed, he was almost killed by Wang Zhi. After constant persuasion and pleading by his uncle Xu Weixue, Wang Zhi let Xu Hai go. Later, the news that Xu Weixue once instigated Xu Hai to assassinate Wang Zhi was spread by someone. Xu Weixue was worried that Wang Zhi would retaliate, and he had long been dissatisfied with Wang Zhi's monopoly on profits and power, so he simply took Xu Hai and some Japanese pirates away to meet Wang Zhi. Parted ways and started going it alone.

However, Xu Wei's learning spirit is as high as the sky, but his ability and luck are poor.

After Xu Weixue took Xu Hai out to work alone, he geared up, recruited troops, and prepared to do a big job.

For the first time, Xu Weixue chose Taizhou, Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and was going to grab a fortune.

burn one's boats!

Army attack!

The lion fights the rabbit with all his strength!

Xu Weixue pulled all the troops on board, pierced through three small boats in public, expressed his determination to break the boat to the Japanese pirates under his command, and screamed to boost the morale of the Japanese pirates under his command, Xu Weixue was full of energy.

However, luck was too bad. Xu Weixue encountered a typhoon on the way before reaching the coast of Jiangsu and Zhejiang. Yes, that's right, it was the typhoon, the typhoon that caused heavy rain in the south of the Yangtze River.

When a typhoon came down, Xu Weixue's high spirits were buried in the sea. Of the more than 800 pirate ships, there were only less than 30 left, and almost all the thousands of pirates under his command were buried in the sea.
