Returning to the Ming Dynasty as a Corrupt Emperor

Transmigrated to the Great Ming Dynasty, I became Emperor Zhu Youxiao, the Carpenter Emperor. Well then, I'll hide behind the scenes; I'll take the blame, and you all go die.

Chapter 651: Dragon and Tiger Brothers

Fang Zhenghua looked at Zheng Zhilong, nodded and said, "Okay." They got off the boat together.

At the dock, the news had already spread back, and many people were watching, seemingly hesitant about Fang Zhenghua's arrival. In this regard, everyone was like this.

Fang Zhenghua and Zheng Zhilong stayed at the dock for a while when someone came over from a distance.

The leader was a burly man with a big beard and a knife on his waist.

After seeing Zheng Zhilong, the bearded man immediately smiled brightly and said, "Brother."

Zheng Zhilong smiled and introduced Fang Zhenghua: "Eunuch, this is my younger brother Zheng Zhihu."

After sizing Zheng Zhihu up and down, Fang Zhenghua smiled and said, "He is indeed a brave man. If he were to join the army, he would definitely be a fierce general on the battlefield."

After hearing this, Zheng Zhilong smiled, stretched out his hand and beckoned his brother, saying, "Come and meet Eunuch Fang."

Walking up to Fang Zhenghua, Zheng Zhihu clasped his fists and said, "Greetings, Eunuch Fang."

Although Zheng Zhihu didn't know what had happened and why his elder brother brought back a eunuch, he still respected his brother very much.

Over the years, my family has been growing bigger and bigger under the leadership of my eldest brother, and now we can be said to be a leader overseas.

Zheng Zhihu has deep trust in his elder brother; although he doesn't know why his elder brother does this, he is still willing to believe him.

"Brother, did your trip go smoothly?" Zheng Zhihu asked Zheng Zhilong with a smile.

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Zheng Zhilong waved his hand and said, "We have a big thing to do next. If we succeed in this, it will guarantee our family endless wealth and prosperity."

Zheng Zhihu looked at his elder brother and nodded somewhat confusedly.

But if Big Brother says there is a big deal, then it must be a big deal, and it has always been like this.

Zheng Zhihu said, "Let's go, let's go back."

A group of people left the dock and soon arrived in front of a very large mansion.

This is Zheng Zhilong's house.

Back then, when Zheng Zhilong was traveling in Japan, he was noticed by Matsuura. Matsuura gave him a piece of land to build a new house at Chirigahama of Kawachiura near Hirado (now Chirigahama of Matsuura County, Nagasaki Prefecture), and introduced him to Matsu Tagawa, the daughter of Tagawa Yuhuang, a retainer of Hirado clan, for marriage.

This kind of house was built on the basis of the original residence, and Zheng Zhilong's wife is still here.

After the group walked in, the room became lively.

Zheng Zhilong ordered his men to prepare wine and food, and at the same time said to Fang Zhenghua beside him, "Eunuch, you must be tired from the journey. Why don't you go take a bath and rest first? I will host a reception for you in the evening."

After hearing this, Fang Zhenghua nodded and said with a smile, "That's fine."

He also understood that Zheng Zhilong needed time and a private space to explain things to his brother and confidants.

Fang Zhenghua naturally didn't say anything and just left.

"Thank you, eunuch." Zheng Zhilong quickly agreed and breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing his elder brother's expression, Zheng Zhihu quickly approached him and asked, "Brother, what's going on? How did you end up hanging out with someone from the Ming court, and a eunuch at that? We don't have good relations with the court, and none of those officials are good people."

Glancing at his brother, Zheng Zhilong said helplessly, "That's not right. I came back this time for something, but there's another piece of news I can tell you first. It's quite important."

"Brother, you speak." Zheng Zhihu nodded, his face became serious, looking at Zheng Zhilong waiting for him to speak.

Zheng Zhilong did not hide the truth from his brother and said, "There is going to be a war here."

"What?" Zheng Zhihu stood up in disbelief and looked at Zheng Zhilong and said, "Who dares to attack here? Is the Japanese shogunate going to turn against us?"

In Zheng Zhihu's opinion, they had no enemies in this area. The Koreans were no match for them at all and could only be beaten to a pulp by them.

The only thing they fear is the Japanese shogunate. In recent years, everyone has not been getting along very harmoniously, and they are not united, so problems can easily arise.

In recent years, Zheng Zhilong moved the base away from here with this intention, so as to avoid being swallowed up by the Japanese.

Are the Japanese going to resort to force?

But the relocation has not been completed yet, how can Zheng Zhihu not be anxious.

"Sit down. Why are you making so much noise?" Zheng Zhilong said unhappily to Zheng Zhihu.

Although he had sat down, Zheng Zhihu was still a little anxious. He looked at Zheng Zhilong and asked directly, "Brother, you can't do this. It's already this time. Don't act like you're facing a catastrophe and remain calm."

"Let's just do what we have to do. We have to get things done. If we want to run, we should gather our men immediately, grab our belongings, and evacuate first. We'll come back and settle the score with these old guys later."

"If you're not going to run and are ready to fight, then tell the brothers that we should strike first. Take Hirado Island first, and then we can talk about it later. When the time comes, we can kill all the Japanese. It's better for us brothers to occupy the island directly, because the other Japanese can't fly over from the sea."

"Will you listen to me?" Zheng Zhilong glared at his brother and said unhappily, "Is it that easy? I wish it were as easy as you say. This time, it's not Japan that wants to attack us, but the Ming and Korean coalition forces that want to attack Japan, and we're the first place where the war will start."

"The Ming and Korean coalition forces are attacking Japan?" Zheng Zhihu said in disbelief, "Are they crazy?"
