~~~~~~

When Chen Yougen and Chen Zihua met Li Yuanqing, Li Yuanqing was sitting in the thatched shed, drinking a pot of wine and eating a piece of dry biscuit and pickles with great relish.

The main reason is that the rain has not stopped, and it is very difficult to find dry firewood in the jungle. Even Li Yuanqing can only take it easy at this time.

"Li Shuai, I, Old Chen, am kowtowing to you! Hey! I, Old Chen, won't say anything unnecessary! From now on, as long as you have errands to do, Li Shuai, I, Chen Yougen, will never give up!"

Chen Yougen knelt on the ground respectfully and kowtowed several times to Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing smiled hurriedly and helped Chen Yougen up: "Master Chen, how do you make this great gift? Please get up quickly. There are no mutton pancakes this morning. I wonder if Master Chen can eat five of these dry pancakes?"

At this time, Chen Yougen also remembered the joke Li Yuanqing made to him the day before yesterday. At that time, he just regarded it as a joke, but he never thought that just two days later, everything would have become a reality!

Not only did he save his precious son, he didn't even spend a penny.

"Li Shuai, look at what you said. You have helped me, Old Chen, so much. How can I, Old Chen, have the nerve to eat your pancakes again? When we go back to Brunei, I, Old Chen, will have a big drink to thank Li Shuai for his kindness."

!”

Li Yuanqing laughed loudly: "Master Chen, don't be in a hurry. After breakfast, pack up, and then we'll go back."

Chen Yougen also laughed, but just as he was about to sit down, he suddenly found that his precious son, Chen Zihua, was still standing beside him in a daze.

Chen Yougen hurriedly gave him a hand, "Hua'er, why don't you kowtow to Li Shuai quickly and thank him for saving his life?"

"Uh? Oh!"

Only then did Chen Zihua react, and he knelt on the ground respectfully and kowtowed several times to Li Yuanqing.

Li Yuanqing smiled and said, "Master Chen, you are not an outsider. Let's sit down and have some breakfast together."

"Thank you Li Shuai."

Chen Zihua smiled awkwardly and quickly picked up a piece of dry biscuit and took a bite, but he couldn't swallow it.

After a moment, he couldn't help but rush out and vomited loudly. He almost wanted to spit out the bitter water from his gallbladder.

Chen Yougen was startled. He thought his precious son had suffered some internal injuries, so he hurried forward to check. Li Yuanqing also hurriedly followed.

The Chen family is now a key chess piece in his hand, and he is also afraid that something will go wrong with Chen Zihua.

Soon, the military doctor came over, checked Chen Zihua, and respectfully reported to Li Yuanqing and Chen Yougen: "General, Mr. Chen, Mr. Chen is fine, he is just a little weak. Go back and eat some greasy food, take a good rest and you will be fine."

Chen You basically wanted to have a good chat with Li Yuanqing and deepen their relationship when he came, but when he saw the state of his precious son, he couldn't eat any more. He hurriedly confessed to Li Yuanqing and took Chen Zihua down to rest.

After a simple breakfast, Li Yuanqing took a look around. At this time, his sons had almost tidied up the battlefield, and the Chen family's money was also loaded onto the ship.

Li Yuanqing waved his hand, and the fleet began to return to Brunei in sequence.

However, when they came out, there were only a dozen Ming warships. When they went back, the team almost doubled, with eight Spanish main battleships, a dozen medium-sized warships, and rows of black muzzles, pattering.

The raindrops were particularly dark and deep.

At this time, on the big boat on the side of Li Yuanqing's boat, Chen Yougen personally took care of his precious son Chen Zihua and lay him down in the cabin. Seeing that Chen Zihua's complexion had improved a lot, he couldn't help but said: "Hua'er, what's going on?

Are you in good health? How could you lose face in front of Li Shuai?"

Chen Zihua was a little speechless: "Dad~~, in this place, you guys can really eat it! As soon as I saw the corpses in the bay, I wanted to vomit! Let alone eating..."

Chen Yougen couldn't help but smile: "Isn't it just a few corpses? So what's going on? Hua'er, you've reached the peak of your age! You're a real man! What? Can't you bear even this little thing?"

"Dad, this... this is not something that the child cannot bear. The main thing is that this is Li Yuanqing. When the child sees him, for some reason, the child feels uncomfortable?"

Hearing that Chen Zihua dared to call Li Yuanqing by his first name, Chen Yougen couldn't help but frown, "Hua'er, Li Shuai has been very kind to my Chen family, you can't be disrespectful to Li Shuai!"

"Dad! How can I be disrespectful to him? He, he is just a mud-legged person! A dignified general actually eats dry biscuits or pickles, and he is not afraid of spreading the word and making people laugh! Really..."

"you-----!"

Chen Yougen couldn't help but be furious. He never expected that his precious son, whom he had always been proud of, could actually say such a thing.

"Hua'er, what's going on with you? How can you comment on Li Shuai's reputation? Do you know that without Li Shuai, you would still be in the hands of Executioner Jack!"

Chen Zihua also saw that his father seemed to be really angry, and said hurriedly: "Dad, it's just talk. By the way, where is Master Ma, why haven't you seen him?"

Seeing his precious son like this, Chen Yougen couldn't help but sigh deeply in his heart.

Ordinarily, Li Yuanqing is not much older than Chen Zihua!

But~~, such a comparison is simply...

However, Chen Zihua also successfully attracted Chen Yougen's attention. Chen Yougen glanced at him and said: "Li Shuai has something to do with Master Ma. Master Ma is now going to Li Shuai's boat."

"Dad, he, what does he have to do with Master Ma? The child is in trouble now, but it's thanks to Master Ma! Doesn't Li Yuanqing want to hurt him?"

"you……"

Chen Yougen couldn't help but take a breath of air-conditioning. He also discovered now that his precious son seemed to have an abnormal mood when he heard Li Yuanqing.

However, Chen Yougen's scheming was not revealed immediately, saying: "Master Ma is just a scholar, why did Li Shuai hurt him?"

Chen Zihua breathed a sigh of relief and said quickly: "Dad, this time Li Yuanqing helped us, we, we should give him money as a thank you gift, right? Dad, how much do you plan to give him?"

Chen Yougen's pupils suddenly dilated, but after a moment, he returned to normal and said: "Li Shuai has helped us so much, so it is appropriate to give us a thank you gift! I want to give all of these million taels to Li Shuai.

It can be said that our Chen family has done our best to Li Shuai and Ming Dynasty!"

"ah?"

Chen Zihua couldn't help being shocked, "Dad, this, this one million taels of silver is given to Li Yuanqing? Dad! This is one million taels of silver! Our Chen family may not be able to earn this amount after working for a year! You

This this……"

Chen Yougen had caught something at this time, and suddenly smiled and said: "Hua'er, you and Master Ma had a good chat yesterday! By the way, what did you talk about?"

"Ah? Oh, dad, it's nothing, nothing. It's just that Master Ma said that dad, you have been worrying so much about your child these days..."

…………

At noon, the fleet successfully arrived at the private dock in Brunei rented by Li Yuanqing.

Because they were smoked by cow dung, and there were still many corpses and debris in these Spanish main battleships, which had not been cleaned up, and some damaged areas also needed to be repaired, these Spanish main battleships were pulled directly as soon as they returned to the port.

Entered the simple shipyard and repaired it.

After getting off the ship, he reported the news to the shore. Li Yuanqing ordered his soldiers to prepare a banquet at the Imperial Concubine House. After a while, he would entertain a group of Chinese businessmen from Brunei, including representatives of the Dutch and Portuguese in Brunei.

This is a bit similar to the press conference of later generations, officially announcing to the public that the Changsheng Camp has wiped out Executioner Jack's fleet.

However, before that, Li Yuanqing returned to the Brunei Pier to meet with his wives and concubines to assure them that they were safe. In addition, there was a small problem that he needed to communicate with Chen Yougen and his son.

After visiting his wife and concubines at the dock, Li Yuanqing met Chen Yougen and his son at the temporary base at the dock.

When Li Yuanqing took out the confessions of Master Ma and Executioner Jack, Chen Yougen's face turned pale.

Chen Zihua was also a little stupid.

For a moment, he shouted hysterically: "Dad, this, this is impossible! This is impossible! Master Ma is such a far-sighted person, he has been with our Chen family for more than ten years, and he is our fellow villager.

How, how could you possibly betray our Chen family?"

"Shut up! You evildoer!"

Chen Yougen suddenly kicked Chen Zihua hard, "Li Shuai, I, Chen Yougen, have a great reputation all my life, why, how did I end up with such a useless evil! The face of our ancestors of the Chen family will be completely ruined by this evil."

It’s over!”

At this time, Li Yuanqing also saw the clues to some things, and said with a faint smile: "Master Chen, Master Chen is still young. He doesn't know the sinister nature of people's hearts. It is human nature to take some detours. You don't have to be too harsh on him! You are young.

Man, there is still a long way to go!"

When he heard that Li Yuanqing, who was only a few years older than him, actually said this, Chen Zihua couldn't bear his anger anymore. He couldn't help but said angrily: "I, Chen Zihua, don't ask you to catch mice - fake mercy! Humph!"

!The reason why you saved me was just for the money of our Chen family! What’s the difference between you and Jack, the executioner? They only bully honest people like our Chen family!"

"You----! You're such a bastard, you're really pissing me off, you're pissing me off!"

Chen Yougen didn't expect that his precious son, who had always been shrewd, would be so incompetent in terms of emotions. His previous shrewdness was just for show!

"I'll beat you to death! I'll beat you to death!"

Chen Yougen was also overwhelmed with anger. Right in front of Li Yuanqing, he grabbed his precious son and started punching and kicking him.

Chen Zihua hurriedly dodged and shouted: "Dad! Dad! You must not be confused! You have to keep your eyes open on this matter!"

Li Yuanqing's eyes couldn't help but narrow slightly.

He also didn't expect that the eldest young master of the Chen family, who had killed and injured more than a hundred brothers and risked his life to rescue him, would be such a thing!

This is really weird!

It’s typical that after being sold, you still have to help others count the money.

However, with Li Yuanqing's identity, competing with a stupid kid is really killing the chicken with a knife and losing his identity.

After a moment, he sneered and said: "Master Chen, if Master Chen doesn't believe it, call the executioner Jack and Master Ma together and confront them face to face. Wouldn't the matter become clear?"

Chen Yougen has already fully understood the trick. Master Ma must have brainwashed his stupid son last night. How dare he ask them to confront him?

Doesn’t that mean you don’t believe Li Yuanqing?

He hurriedly said: "Li Shuai, how did this happen? This evil obstacle has really wasted so many years of my hard work! Evil obstacle, why don't you kneel down and apologize to Li Shuai!"

"Apologise? Why should I apologize? Dad! If you don't do anything wrong, don't be afraid of the devil calling you! If you have the guts, ask Li Yuanqing to call the executioner Jack and Master Ma to confront each other!"

Chen Zihua scratched his neck, almost like a martyr about to go to the execution ground.
