Yan Qi enjoyed the beauty's fragrant body, feeling refreshed and as happy as a god.
But Tokugawa Chenghiko was hiding in the cabin and sulking.
This feeling is so frustrating.
Tokugawa Seuhiko felt that he was a coward.
It's ten minutes into the night.
Yoshitomo Takeda left Yan Qi's gentle hometown and came back to return his life to Tokugawa Seihiko.
Tokugawa Seuhiko deliberately left no bodyguard and summoned Takeda Yoshitomo: "How was your discussion with Yan Qi?"
Takeda Yoshitomo said: "I have agreed on a time with Yan Qi. After the ceremony tomorrow, we will immediately start negotiations on the South China Sea trade issue."
Tokugawa Chenghiko felt relieved after hearing this.
At the same time, he turned around, leaving Yoshitomo Takeda with a defenseless back.
There were no guards around.
Yoshitomo Takeda looked at Tokugawa Seuhiko's back alone, the flying knife hidden in his sleeve ready to move.
If Yan Qimian hadn't told him not to carry out the assassination, the flying knife in his sleeve would have penetrated Tokugawa Seihiko's back.
Yoshitomo Takeda also discovered the tricks of Tokugawa Seuhiko.
Tokugawa Seuhiko didn't even have a bodyguard around him, which was absolutely abnormal.
Could it be that Tokugawa Seihiko deliberately showed flaws comparable to those of an elementary school student to lure me into killing him?
This guy is indeed far from an ordinary tycoon. For the sake of the rule of the Tokugawa Shogunate, he is willing to die and suppress the Takeda family and the Thirty-six Zaibatsu.
As expected, Mr. Yan was given the hint.
Tokugawa Seuhiko clearly exposed his flaws deliberately.
Otherwise, why wouldn't there be a single bodyguard around him?
Yoshitomo Takeda thought of this and calmed down: "Master Ying, if there is nothing else, I will go back and rest first."
"oh."
Tokugawa Seihiko didn't look back, he stood there in silence for a long time, and finally said: "Master Takeda, please rest early so that you can deal with tomorrow's negotiations with Yan Qi."
"yes!"
Yoshitomo Takeda slowly withdrew.
When Takeda Yoshitomo closed the door, Tokugawa Chenghiko suddenly turned his head, took three steps and two steps at a time, walked to the window, opened the curtain, and looked sharply at Takeda Yoshitomo's exquisite body.
"It was such a good opportunity, but she didn't kill me."
"What on earth was she thinking?"
"The Takeda family hates me so much that they should kill me."
"But why doesn't she act?"
"Could it be that Yoshitomo Takeda was not involved in the South China Sea trade issue?"
Tokugawa Chenghiko gritted his teeth and was puzzled.
He has a very high level of strategic thinking.
Based on the principle of who benefits, who decides the plan, Tokugawa Seuhiko has always suspected that Takeda Yoshitomo is also involved in the game of South China Sea trade issues.
In fact, Yoshitomo Takeda may be the mastermind behind the scenes.
The Thirty-six Zaibatsu were nothing more than a gun used by Yoshitomo Takeda.
In particular, Yoshitomo Takeda once served as an envoy to China.
Maybe, there is an ulterior friendship between Yan Qi and Takeda Yoshitomo.
Tokugawa Seuhiko was in distress.
The South China Sea trade issue cannot be resolved, Tokugawa Taiyasu is still imprisoned by Yan Qi, and Ryukyu Island has been separated.
Yizhou Island also became Yan Qi's possession.
All problems have no solution.
You can see it, but you can't understand it.
The only way Tokugawa Seuhiko thought of was to use his own death to firmly control Takeda Yoshitomo and the Thirty-Six Zaibatsu.
If Yoshitomo Takeda dares to attack him secretly, the Tokugawa Shogunate will have the moral high ground, the Takeda family will become a despised assassin, and the Thirty-six Zaibatsu will become Yoshitomo Takeda's accomplice.
If it really reaches that point, the Tokugawa shogunate will make a huge comeback and firmly control the hearts and minds of the Japanese people, and economic and people's livelihood issues will become less important.
The only price you pay is your own life.
But it can
This was evidence that allowed the Tokugawa shogunate to firmly control the Japanese state.
For this reason, Tokugawa Chenghiko did not hesitate to die.
He did not bring any personal guards and summoned Yoshitomo Takeda alone, just to give Yoshitomo Takeda a perfect opportunity to assassinate him.
Although Tokugawa Seuhiko was unwilling to give in, he was also ready to die.
The Bushido spirit of the Tokugawa Shogunate was brought into full play by him.
But unexpectedly, Yoshitomo Takeda didn't take action.
This surprised Tokugawa Seihiko.
On the one hand, he saved his life. There is a hint of surprise.
On the other hand, he felt a huge headache.
Because, as long as he does not die, the South China Sea trade issue will become a big stone weighing on the chest of the Tokugawa shogunate.
Breathing is as difficult as Mount Tai.
"Why!"
Tokugawa Seuhiko sighed heavily.
He really couldn't understand why Yoshitomo Takeda hated himself so much, why didn't he cut himself in the back?
Could it be that she really had no intention of killing herself?
Absolutely impossible!
Tokugawa Chenghiko shook his head vigorously.
Or maybe Takeda Yoshitomo thinks more deeply than himself and knows that assassinating him will have more troublesome consequences?
impossible!
Tokugawa Chenghiko shook his head vigorously.
He does not think that Yoshitomo Takeda's political wisdom will be higher than his own.
"Forget it, I can only take one step, one step."
"It's not scary that Yoshitomo Takeda takes over. What's scary is that Tokugawa Taiyasu can't be saved."
He was extremely distressed.
I didn't sleep well that night either.
In the dream, Yan Qi turned into a colorful tiger and pounced on him.
Tokugawa Seuhiko was so frightened that he howled and screamed.
Woke up in a sweat.
…
The next day!
Tokugawa Chenghiko and Takeda Yoshitomo, along with representatives of the Thirty-six Zaibatsu, rushed to the Yamen to negotiate with Yan Qi.
Yan Qi is now the real King of Ryukyu.
Wherever he was, he also moved from the post house to the yamen.
"Lord Yan!"
Tokugawa Chenghiko handed over to Yanqi: "Today, after the ceremony, let's start negotiations on South China Sea trade issues. Of course, Lord Takeda will be in charge of our negotiations."
Yoshitomo Takeda bowed slightly: "Master Yan, thank you for your trust."
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Yan Qidao: "The negotiation is so urgent, I haven't calmed down yet."
Tokugawa Seuhiko was anxious: "It has been delayed for a long time and cannot be delayed any longer."
"Oh well."
Yan Qidao: "Since Mr. Takeda has come forward to negotiate, I have to give him face and let the negotiation be held as scheduled. But..."
Yan Qi hesitated deliberately.
Tokugawa Seihiko panicked: "But what?"
Yan Qi smiled strangely: "I have just become the King of Ryukyu. I want to visit the more than 70 surrounding islands and express condolences to the people of Ryukyu. Otherwise, wouldn't my title of King of Ryukyu be in name only?"
"So, An Qing should be solely responsible for trade issues in the South China Sea."
"An Qing?"
Hearing this, Tokugawa Chenghiko couldn't help but frown.
An Qing stood up and said generously, "Sir Takeda, you can discuss the South China Sea trade issue directly with me."
Before Yoshitomo Takeda could speak, Tokugawa Seuhiko became anxious: "You? Can you afford the responsibility?"
An Qing said: "I am the Prime Minister of Dahua. Do you think I can take responsibility?"
"Ah? Prime Minister Dahua?"
Tokugawa Seuhiko was shocked: "How is that possible?"
An Qing said: "Master Takeda can be the first minister of Japan's Taizongguan, why can't I be the prime minister of Dahua?"
"this……"
An Qing's soft eyes bloomed with a light that cannot be underestimated, and she said calmly: "
Mr. Yan has important things to do. He traveled to the Ryukyu Islands and observed the sentiments of the people. He had no time to worry about other trivial matters. "
"I am responsible for such trivial matters as South China Sea trade issues."
"Tokugawa Seihiko, if you are willing to talk, then I will act as ordered and start formal negotiations. If you don't want to talk, then please leave Ryukyu. I have important things to do, so I can't force you to stay."
"Hey, this..."
Tokugawa Seihiko didn't expect An Qing to be so strong yet strong at the same time.
These words made Tokugawa Seihiko roll his eyes.
