In later generations, the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, which was commonly known as the Grand Canal, only less than half of it could play some role after the Song Dynasty crossed to the south, and from Lin'an Mansion through Guantang and Yuxi Zhushui into Taihu Lake, and then turned around to the west, and crossed Jingxi through Lishui to enter the territory of Jiankang Mansion. Although this waterway is more detoured than the land route on the first line of Dusong Pass, it is better than all boating water, and it is most suitable for bulk freight and personnel and family members.

Not only that, because of the defense of the two Huai, which was the fundamental point of the founding of the Southern Song Dynasty, with the money and grain supplied by most of the country, with this canal, it was able to operate freely. It is no exaggeration to call it the lifeline of the imperial court, carrying all kinds of goods, carrying all kinds of goods.

Not far from the side of a long convoy of cargo ships with flat bottoms, several tall brigs were very eye-catching, and the old Artemisia Gong, who had been sailing on this canal for a long time, only skimmed it and knew that these were all official ships from Beijing. In addition to the two ships full of sergeants, they were guarding the high-ranking officials who were about to take up their posts, so they did not need the orders of the detainees, and gave way to the river far away and let them go first.

It's just that the old Artemisia may not be literate, but the officials who escort the ship recognize the lanterns hanging on the high mast, and each string has a word written on it. After reading it once, the official covered his mouth with his hand, and in a short sentence he revealed the identity of this person, who was the messenger of the Heavenly Family, and he was the so-called "minister of the Qin Mission" in later generations.

At this moment, it is the height of summer, the warblers on both sides of the river are red and willow green, it is the best time in the south of the Yangtze River, if it is usual, boating on the Lishui River, it is a good place to watch the scenery by the river of Yanxia Consumer Office. Huang Yong, who used the military department as a consolation envoy, had no intention of appreciating it at all, his eyes looked along both sides of the river and took it back, this is already the territory of Jiankang Mansion, and the fleet has just passed the border of Liyang County.

His heart is a little bored, since entering the realm, what he saw along the way is not what he thought in his heart, according to the military report, the Tartar did not go deep into the realm, but just passed through the county town of Liyang, almost an empty city, the people are returning one after another, the original county Zhao Huai died in the silver tree, there is only one county in the county Yali in the civil service, now it is nearly May, if the seedlings are not replenished in time, this year's harvest will be completely empty, and the next year can only rely on the imperial court to live.

Looking at the banks of the Lishui River, except for the occasional figure of a few people, most of the fields are empty. If he didn't know that they had won a battle, he would have wanted to write a seal to impeach the second meritorious person in the Jiankang Mansion, but he could only think about it, such a hero, unless he died himself, who could move him now.

The speed of the entire fleet also made him very dissatisfied, although he wanted to put on his wings and fly to Jiankang, but now he could only drive on the water like this. Because the mission of their group was not only to check the results of the battle with the condolences of the imperial court, but also to send the family members of Wang Lixin, the late Jianghuai ambassador, to Jiankang safely, the most important of which was the wife of the Wang family who had just been named the lady of Shouchun County by the Empress Dowager.

Huang Yong knew that this was just a routine seal, with Wang Lixin's military exploits and the death of the king, it was a due righteousness from the mercy and mercy, at least it was a high gift from one of the three orphans plus the knighthood of the Duke of the Kingdom. In this way, as a widow, the Wang family will also rise with the tide, and it is logical that she will become the first-class lady of the country among the foreign women, compared to herself, a waiter from the third grade, it is already more than a little bit higher.

The so-called wife and shadow son, just like that, but Huang Yong learned from his colleague Chen Yizhong that in the testament that Wang Lixin put on his deathbed, he pushed away the shadow of his own son, and instead helped Liu Yu, who no one was familiar with, to add an official, and he still wanted a handsome minister all the way, this son is only thirty years, how can He De be from this high position?

Since ancient times, the things on the good news cannot be trusted, which is also the main mission of their line, of course, it is not to say that this victory is to be denied, but the princes of the court and the government hall are thinking that they must have a number in their hearts. If it's just about the same, then it's going to pass with one eye closed, and you can't chill the hearts of the front-line soldiers, but if it's too much fiction and reality, then

Just thinking about it, the fleet had already sailed into a town, and without being reminded, Huang Yong could also see that the waterway was diverging from the official road ahead, and the big ship stopped at the nearest pier, and when the sergeant accompanying the ship set up the board, Huang Yong pushed away the entourage who wanted to support him, and walked straight down from the board.

"Old boatman, may I ask, where is this place?" Because he was on the boat just now, he was not wearing an official uniform, he was dressed like an ordinary gentleman in a green shirt, and walked to the side of a fishing boat that was making nets.

"The official forgives the sin, the old man is rude, this is Nandu Town, if you want to go to Jiankang, you have to take the official road, you can go to Lishui County in about a day, if there is a boat there, you can sail straight into the city. Further from here is Shijiu Lake, looking at the officials like this, they don't go there. The old boatman still has the vision, and he can see at a glance that this is not an ordinary person, and there is more respect between his words.

"My husband has good eyesight, and he is going to Jiankang City, but he looks at the sparsely populated area near the left, isn't it a scourge of the Tartars? The fields were deserted, but the people had gone. Huang Yong pointed in the direction of the surroundings and smiled disapprovingly, continuing to wrap his words.

"The officials came from elsewhere, and the Tartars came to attack the day before yesterday, and the government posted a notice telling the old men to flee elsewhere, and not leave a grain of rice for them to do harm, so you can't see anyone now, and now the Tartars have withdrawn, and after a while, they will naturally all return." The old boatman did not doubt him, and told him 1510.

"You said that the government wanted you to abandon the land and flee? Do you know what level of government it is? Huang Yong keenly grasped the key point, his eyes became a little burning, and he didn't feel sharp between the words, but this was not mentioned in the military newspaper, when it was about to fight, there were many expedient measures, but in the end it was not excessive, so I had to say it separately.

"This is the official is embarrassed by the little old man, everyone is illiterate, where do you know which government posted it, if the official is interested, you might as well go to the town to find the chief to ask. The little old man and others still have to go fishing, and the family is waiting for food, so they will not delay the official's trip, and forgive the sin. When the old boatman finished speaking, he did not wait for him to answer, but hurriedly untied the rope and opened the fishing boat and sailed out.

Huang Yong watched the small fishing boat disappear quickly into the river, patted the dust on his body, stood thoughtfully for a while, and then turned and walked in the direction of his fleet. Near the dock, several large ships were disembarking, and he saw the two deputy envoys standing together at a glance, so he quickened his pace.

"Go to a few people to see if there is a post station in the town, if not, stay at the inn in the town, and wait for Mrs. Wang and other dependents, and don't slack off. Send a few more people, with certain documents, and hurry to Jiankang Mansion, and they will prepare a boat to pick up people in Lishui County. After some discussion with the two deputy envoys in the same company, Huang Yong quickly gave an order.

When the news of the imperial court envoy reached Jiankang City, Hu Sansheng and others searched the whole city and did not find where Liu Yu was, and after discussing with Yuan Hong and others, they decided not to care about him anymore, and directly mobilized several large ships from outside the city, along the Qinhuai River all the way to the south, and took the envoy first.

At this moment, Liu Yu, who was nowhere to be found, was already lying in the hotel private room in Jinling blowing the air conditioner. Wearing a short-sleeved T-shirt and big trousers, he leaned on the sofa very ungracefully, and looked boredly at a few pieces of paper in his hand, which were typed out by Su Wei, and the paper was printed with the financial statements sent by the imperial capital headquarters, listing the company's income and expenditure in the past few months.

Su Wei took the order from the hotel from the waiter, pushed the car into the room, and as soon as she entered the door, she found that her boss's eyes were half-closed, and the paper in her hand had not changed since she went out, Su Wei shook her head helplessly, and the boss who was so dissatisfied with her company estimated that she couldn't find a few in the whole of China.

In terms of performance, the report sent by the headquarters is still acceptable, and in just a few months, the company's business dealings with Africa have been very successful. Now, the company has become the general distributor of Liberian rosewood and other specialties in China, and the profit in just a few months has been hundreds of thousands, but these watches are actually hypnotic tunes in the eyes of the boss.

"You're impatient, do you want me to read it to you?" Su Wei took the pieces of paper from Liu Yu's hand, the latter immediately opened his eyes, Liu Yu knew his virtue, and smiled embarrassedly, he didn't pay attention to the development of the company, but he knew that it was already on track, so he didn't want to worry too much, as for how much he earned, it was just some numbers, he didn't want these.

While eating the meal that Su Wei pushed in, while listening to her read the thing on it, Liu Yu was still a little absent-minded, his mind was still in that time and space, and what to do next, he was a little uncertain. Su Wei slowly read the contents of those few pieces of paper, and when she looked up, the boss didn't say anything about eating at all, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

"By the way, there has been some progress in the thing you said last time, do you want to take a look at it first?" Su Wei sighed secretly, put down the paper in her hand and said, what she said was the plan sent to Zheng Haoyun to do, the preliminary idea had been sent to her mailbox, and the other party asked her to confirm whether it would work before she could carry out the next step.

"Oh, tell me about it." When Liu Yu heard her words, he raised his head, obviously more interested than just now. Su Wei opened the laptop on the side, entered his mailbox, clicked on the email sent, and read the content on it, Liu Yu nodded frequently when he listened, and even forgot to eat.

"Probably these places, each has its own advantages and disadvantages, how to choose, you have to make your own decision." Su Wei finished reading it in one bite, these awkward ancient place names made her very difficult, she was also a college student, but she felt like she didn't understand anything, what the boss wanted to do, no one in the company knew, she didn't have curiosity, but it was not illegal to work for others, and she didn't want to talk so much.

"If it were you, where would you choose?" Liu Yu went through it in his mind and felt that it made sense, so he asked casually.

"I don't know, but let me choose, I think it's good here." Su Wei pointed to a place name, Liu Yu leaned over to take a look, he didn't expect it to be this place, he was a little silent for a while, Wang Lixin paved the way for him, but he still had to work hard, and things might not be as they thought.
