As soon as Liu Mingzhi's seemingly questioning voice fell, Sakai Hoshino's eyes suddenly turned resentful when he looked at Young Master Liu.
Sensing Sakai Hoshino's resentful gaze, Liu Mingzhi's expression was startled. He didn't know what this woman meant when she suddenly looked at him like this.
"Hoshino, are you okay? Just say what you need to say. Why are you looking at me like that?"
When Sakai Hoshino heard Young Master Liu's questioning words, the look of resentment in his pretty eyes became more obvious. He wrinkled his nose angrily. Sakai Hoshino's eyes were filled with resentment, as if Young Master Liu had done something to him.
It's like I'm sorry for her.
"It's not all because of you, Mr. Liu."
"Because of me, Hoshino, where did you start talking about this?
Hoshino, you must know that your Japanese country is separated from my Dalong by a vast ocean. I am already in my early forties this year, but I have never set foot in your Japanese country. What can I do to affect your Sakai family?
I wonder if there is any misunderstanding in this?"
Sakai Hoshino shook his head with a very firm expression: "There is no misunderstanding, it's just because of you, Mr. Liu."
"Hey, Hoshino, what you said is a bit too decisive, isn't it?
Then Hoshino, you should explain to me carefully what is it about me that caused your brother to face this difficulty."
Just as Sakai Hoshino was about to say something, Liu Mingzhi suddenly walked toward the door while swinging the folding fan.
"Hoshino, I'm a little tired from standing at the window all the time. Let's go out and walk around in the yard, and talk as we go."
Liu Mingzhi is the master of Dalong's world. He has said so, and Sakai Hoshino can only do as he pleases.
What's more, I still have others to ask for!
Sakai Hoshino looked at Liu Mingzhi who had already walked out of the room, and hurriedly ran after him.
"Mr. Liu, please slow down and wait for Hoshino!"
"There's only so much space in the yard, can I still run away?"
After Liu Mingzhi walked into the courtyard, he started to wander around the small courtyard happily. He looked sideways at Sakai Hoshino who was following him and asked softly: "Hoshino, tell me, because I
What brought your brother to this situation?"
Sakai Hoshino picked a leaf from the branch and turned it gently in his hand: "Mr. Liu, a few years ago our Sakai family's envoy and the Japanese royal family's envoy went to Dalong together. Liu
Jun, do you still remember?
No, Liu-kun, you will definitely not forget it, you yourself told Hoshino about this just now!"
"Well, of course I remember, what next?"
"Mr. Liu, what did you do after our two delegations went to Dalong to pay homage to you, His Majesty the Emperor Dalong?"
Young Master Liu paused for a moment, thought for a moment, and seemed to have understood the meaning of what Sakai Hoshino said earlier.
Sakai Hoshino said that the difficulty Sakai Kazuko faced was because of himself, and most likely because of the incident in which he sold weapons to both Japanese missions.
I vaguely remember that in addition to Japan, Goguryeo, Annan, Siam... and other countries seemed to have sold them a lot of military equipment that the imperial court had eliminated.
Thinking of this, the embarrassment on Mr. Liu's face flashed away. If Sakai Hoshino didn't mention it again, he would have almost forgotten this matter.
Although Liu Mingzhi had completely guessed the cause and effect, he could only pretend to be confused.
Although Sakai Hoshino certainly didn't dare to say anything to complain about himself, and he wasn't afraid of what she would say, he still wanted to save face after all.
Of course, Liu Mingzhi still hopes that this kind of thing should not be mentioned.
Thinking of this, Young Master Liu pretended to be confused and looked at Sakai Hoshino who was silently playing with the leaves.
"I just received their worshipers at the Qinzheng Hall in the palace as normal, and I didn't do much else?"
Sakai Hoshino looked at Liu Mingzhi's confused look and couldn't help but feel a little helpless in her heart. She didn't know whether Liu Mingzhi was pretending to be confused or if he had really forgotten about selling him to the royal family, Dairyongbei.
Already.
After hesitating in his heart for a long time, Sakai Hoshino decided to tell the matter.
After all, this is the root of the whole thing.
"Mr. Liu."
"Huh? What's wrong?"
"Mr. Liu, if Hoshino says something that shouldn't be said later, don't be angry with Hoshino."
Young Master Liu glanced at Sakai Hoshino's curvy, graceful figure, and smiled narrowly.
"No problem, we are good friends, and as friends we should be honest with each other.
Although we haven't seen each other for many years, who made us old friends? Naturally, I still hope that you, Hoshino, can be honest with me."
"Really? Liu Jun, are you sure you won't be angry?"
"a man of his words."
"Xingye knows that Mr. Liu, you are the most... the most..."
Sakai Hoshino was thinking about praising Liu Mingzhi when he suddenly felt that something was wrong with the way he looked at her.
Sakai Hoshino didn't know why, so he carefully recalled what Liu Dashao had said before.
Be honest?
Is the candid meeting that Liu Jun mentioned just now the candid meeting that he understands?
Could it be that Liu Jun wanted to?
These four words came to mind, making Sakai Hoshino's heart tremble involuntarily, and the blush that had just faded on her pretty face suddenly returned to her face.
"Mr. Liu, you are bullying Hoshino."
"Hey, Hoshino, you can eat whatever you want, but you can't talk nonsense. When did this young master bully you?"
"You...you...Liu Jun, what you just said was clearly bullying Hoshino.
You must know that I have never slacked off in learning Dalong's Chinese over the past ten years, and the idiom you just said is not what Hoshino understands at all."
"The words I said are correct and true to the original meaning. Then Hoshino, can you tell me what you mean?"
"You are talking about asking Hoshino to take off his clothes... Bah, Mr. Liu, you are so bad. Anyway, you are just bullying Hoshino."
"Okay, okay, whatever Hoshino says, it's okay. I don't want to argue with you anymore. Isn't it okay?"
When Sakai Hoshino heard Mr. Liu's words, he suddenly felt very angry. How could Mr. Liu's words mean that he was wrong?
He wanted to have a debate with Liu Mingzhi, but when he thought about business, Sakai Hoshino had no choice but to suppress the matter of Young Master Liu teasing him deep in his heart.
"Mr. Liu, since you said you won't be angry, then Hoshino will say so."
"Well, tell me."
"Mr. Liu, after you received the royal envoy back then, did you sell them Dalong's sophisticated military equipment?"
When Liu Mingzhi heard Sakai Hoshino directly ask about the original incident, he knew that it was impossible to continue to pretend to be confused.
Looking sideways at Sakai Hoshino's instinctively pouting red lips, Young Master Liu nodded with a smile.
