    w "Leader, I found it, I found it."

    The golden-winged eagle came out excitedly holding a box.

    Hai Nixiong took it, then held his breath, with a nervous expression on his face, and his hands actually trembled a little, and he slowly opened the box.

    At this time, Captain Andres closed his eyes in despair.

    The box was opened, and a coquettish light burst out of the box.

    Hai Nixiong¡¯s trembling hands took out a necklace, and hanging on the necklace was a dazzling and huge diamond.

    "Sangxi, Sangxi." Hai Nixiong muttered these two words.

    Captain Andres¡¯s face turned pale.

    Yes, this is the "Sancy" diamond, which has been preserved by the family of King Philip of Spain for nearly a hundred years.

    This huge diamond was first discovered by a slave from the Eastern Mughal Empire.

    Legend has it that after this slave picked up this huge diamond in the famous Golconda mine, he wanted to use this diamond to change his life and gain freedom, so he raised his T-shaped pickaxe and hit the thigh hard when no one was paying attention.  Blood flowed profusely.  The slave endured great pain and hid the diamond deep in the wound, and used leaves as a bandage to wrap the wound. He found a seagoing sailor and was ready to exchange for his freedom. After the sailor saw the huge diamond, he wished he could get it immediately.  Be prepared to risk everything.  The sailor and the slave quickly reached an agreement, and the sailor hid the slave in the jute in the cabin without telling the captain.

    When the ship sailed into the sea, the sailors brought food to the slaves at night. While they were eating, they killed the slaves with daggers and threw the victims into the sea. The ship docked behind Madras.  The sailor sold the diamond to the British governor of the city, Sir Peter, for 20,000 pounds.

    Later, Sir Peter went bankrupt, and the diamond moved to many places, and finally fell into the hands of King Philip II of Spain.

    The current King of Spain, Philip IV, for some unknown reason, needed someone to bring the diamond and his personal letter to the Spanish Governor in Luzon, Hurtado de Cocuera.

    In view of the current rampant pirates on the sea, in order to ensure nothing goes wrong, Philip IV handed over this glorious task to the loyal Andres.  But no one thought of it.  Captain Andres's ship was still looted

    These pirates have never used such large-scale plunder in the past, and behaved very politely, but this time it was completely different.  And as soon as they boarded the ship.  The target is very clear, it is the "Sancy" diamond. Obviously they have already obtained the information.

    The "throat" was robbed.  How should I explain to His Majesty the King?  Captain Andres closed his eyes in pain

    Holding the "Sangxi" diamond in his hand, Hai Nixiong was filled with admiration, "Oh my God, this is really God's masterpiece."  Although the Ming Dynasty did not pay much attention to diamonds, these pirates who had been dealing with the Thai people for many years knew very well the extraordinary value of diamonds.

    Now that "Sangsi" has fallen into his own hands, once this diamond is dedicated to the leader of the alliance, the leader of the alliance will definitely be very happy.

    After carefully putting away "Sangxi", Hainixiong found that there was another letter in the box. He took it out, but he was a little embarrassed.  Although these years of piracy taught him the language of Dry Rusi.  But being able to speak and being able to see are different.  The letter was so full of dry cursive that he couldn't understand a single word.

    Fortunately, there was a golden-winged eagle who could understand it, so Hai Nixiong handed the letter into the hands of the golden-winged eagle.

    The golden-winged eagle looked at it carefully, and his expression suddenly changed.  He got closer to Hai Nixiong and whispered in his ear for a long time. Hai Nixiong's expression suddenly changed: "Really?"

    "Really!" The golden-winged eagle nodded firmly.

    Then.  The two people's eyes fell on the bold little girl Julianna.

    Juliana was a little scared by them and didn't know what they wanted to do.

    "Take her with you." Hai Nixiong pointed to Juliana: "Send him to the leader immediately, along with the 'Sancy' diamond and this letter from Philip IV."

    "What to do with these people?" Golden-winged Eagle pointed at the nobles and ladies who were shivering with fear.

    "This matter is a bit big." Hai Nixiong was silent for a while: "Logically speaking, we shouldn't do anything, but this little girl resisted us and insulted us, thus breaking the rules of the sea. From now on  Start. Every one of them is our hostage!"

    This is just an excuse for the sea mud bear.

    As he said, this matter was really big, not only the letter, but also the little girl Juliana.  There are no sea mud bearsSo bold to let anyone here go.  Otherwise, no one can tell what will happen.

    "Fetch me Simond." After hearing what happened, Ding Yunyi said thoughtfully, holding the "Sancy" diamond and the letter in his hand.

    The golden-winged eagle saw the leader of the alliance for the first time and felt a little uneasy.  Although these pirates had long heard of the reputation of the leader of the Pirate Alliance, they never expected that the leader was such a young person.

    He once heard Hainixiong tell various legendary stories about the leader. Like all the pirates in the Pirate Alliance, the Golden-winged Eagle's heart was filled with infinite admiration for the leader.

    "It's not that I don't trust you, Golden-winged Eagle." Ding Yunyi said slowly: "But this matter is very big. I have to find someone who is proficient in dried wax silk script to translate it carefully for me. See if there is anything in it.  What goes wrong.¡±

    "Yes, I know." The golden-winged eagle said quickly.

    Ding Yunyi's brows were tightly locked together, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, Simond hurried in. Ding Yunyi didn't say much and handed him the letter in his hand: "Translate the words above  Listen to me and remember to translate every word clearly."

    Simond received the letter: "This is written by King Philip IV of Spain to Hurtado de Cocuera, the Spanish Governor in Luzon, aha. Governor Cocuera is also an old friend of ours.  ? God! Philip IV said in the letter that in view of the current rampant pirates, the safety of Spanish merchant ships could not be guaranteed at all, so he asked Governor Cocuera to conduct a crusade to completely annihilate these pirates. However, this is not the real purpose.  The purpose was to launch a surprise attack on the Ming Dynasty's Taiwan in the middle of the march under the guise of conquering pirates."

    Ding Yunyi sneered.  OK, since the defeat of the four-nation combined fleet.  Whether they are Hongyi, Ganrasi or Folangji people, they are all doing business with Taiwan honestly, and no one dares to act rashly.  But that damn King Philip IV of Spain actually had Taiwan¡¯s brains on his mind?

    "Philip IV said in a letter to Governor Cocuera. According to what he learned from the merchants, the pirates were backed by that big shot in Taiwan, ah, that is, you, the Lord Mayor." Simond  Then he said: "To completely solve the piracy problem, we must drive you away from Taiwan and control Taiwan in the hands of the Spanish."

    "Do you think Governor Cocuera will do what Philip IV asked him to do if he gets this letter?" Ding Yunyi asked calmly.

    "No, it's completely impossible." Simond replied without any hesitation: "Philip IV didn't understand the situation in Luzon at all. He always believed that the Spanish fleet was the most powerful in the world. But he didn't know that at all.  Knowing what a powerful enemy his order would make Governor Cocuera face, Philip IV was crazy, but Governor Cocuera was not crazy.¡±

    Ding Yunyi smiled.

    Yes, I have been dealing with Cocuera for so many years. Cocuera fully knows what kind of enemy he will face if he does what the king said.

    Simond turned the page of the letter, and his face changed color instantly: "What? This. This is impossible! God, Mr. Zongzhen, do you know what happened? He entrusted Mr. Andres, the captain of the Angel, to  Take this letter, a 'Sancy' diamond, and a little girl. Do you know who this little girl is? Her name is Juliana. God, I really can't believe this.  As it happened, she was the illegitimate daughter of Philip IV."

    Ding Yunyi smiled. In fact, Hai Nixiong had already told him about this matter.

    Philip IV, the king of the Spanish Habsburg dynasty, had an affair with a maid and gave birth to a daughter. This was something that embarrassed the Habsburg dynasty. A majestic king actually had an affair with a maid.  Pass!

    What¡¯s even more embarrassing for Philip IV is that although he is the king, he has a fierce and fierce wife.

    After the Queen found out about this, she was uncharacteristically not making a fuss with His Majesty the King.  Just when the king thought everything was calm, his daughter mysteriously disappeared.

    The anxious king sent people to search for almost a year before he discovered that his daughter had been sent by the queen to a small fishing village in the Caribbean called Cologne. Although the king wanted to take his daughter back, he did not have the opportunity because of the queen.  courage.

    And then bad news came. The owner of that family and his father both died in a shipwreck, so the girl of unknown origin was raised by her stepmother's sister, a woman named Maggie.

    But it is said that the Maggie woman was very cruel. She had no idea that this girl named Julianna would actually be the king's daughter, so she was very unkind to Julianna.?Julianna's life is worse than that of a mouse.

    Philip IV was very distressed, so he entrusted his crony, the Duke of Ipdala, to handle the matter, and begged the Duke to greatly improve his daughter's life.

    The Duke thought for a long time and thought that the only way to avoid the Queen's eyes and ears was to send Juliana to Luzon, another confidant of His Majesty the King, Cocuera.

    Philip IV agreed to this suggestion and gave full authority to handle the matter to the Duke of Ipdala. At the same time, he repeatedly stated that the queen would not be discovered under any circumstances, and that Juliana would not be allowed to know until she was twenty years old.  She is the king's daughter, so as not to bring unnecessary disaster to her.

    Iptala thought for a long time, and finally thought of someone who could handle this difficult matter for him: his loyal servant Hans!

    God bless, Hans and Juliana have known each other a long time ago, so this provides the most convenient conditions for Hans to get close to Juliana again.

    Hans pretended to meet Juliana accidentally, told him that he was working on the "Angel", and then hinted through various channels that Julianna could quietly board the "Angel", and Julianna was indeed tempted.  At the same time, Andres, the captain of the "Angel", also received the same order from the Duke.

    This is also the main reason why Captain Andres did not give her any substantial punishment after the uninvited guest Julianna on the "Angel" was caught by the crew.

    Of course, Andres didn't know that this little girl would actually be the king's daughter. The order he received was to deliver Juliana and His Majesty the King's personal letter, as well as the "Sancy" diamond, to the Spanish Governor in Luzon.  Mr. Cocuera.

    The "Sancy" diamond was a gift from Philip IV to Juliana on her twentieth birthday.  When Juliana's twentieth birthday comes, Governor Cocuera will give the diamond to Juliana and tell her about her life experience.

    Everything was calculated, but neither Philip nor Ipudala expected that the "Angel" would be robbed by pirates.  In fact, in order to cope with this situation, Ipudala deliberately placed many valuable treasures on the "Angel", and repeatedly resisted Captain Andres to give these treasures to the pirates once they discovered them.

    But what I never expected was that the pirates didn't care about the treasures at all. The only thing they cared about was the "Sancy" diamond.

    "However, the pirates also did not expect that they had obtained the "Sancy" diamond, but they had gained such a significant harvest inexplicably. This could be regarded as God's own arrangements.

    After listening to Simond read out all the contents of the letter, Ding Yunyi pondered for a long time and then said: "Bring me the little girl Juliana."

    In fact, Juliana is no longer a little girl. She is already eighteen years old this year. She seems to have no connection with the word "little girl" at all. However, it seems that Philip still likes to call his little daughter this way in his letters.

    When they saw Juliana, everyone couldn't help but exclaimed, she was so beautiful.

    A pair of big blue eyes as clear and pure as the sea water, long golden curly hair that shines like the sun born on the sea, a face that is as fair and delicate as a pearl, and a tall, soft, slender figure that is as graceful as a legendary mermaid.  All of this combined on Juliana looks so perfect!  To be continued.  If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for recommendations and monthly votes.
