In the wax moon, two pieces of news permeated the sky over the entire Tokyo metropolitan area, and they persisted for a long time.

First, there is about Xiao Zhen, the king of Jin in the east.

After the arrival of the winter monsoon, the sea ships moored in the port of Dongjin Province have set sail and headed for the countries of the South Seas. At this point, the one-year shipping matter is almost over. When His Royal Highness the King of Jin has finished the matter of the capital water supervisor, he should return to the capital by order. But no one expected that the merchant ships going to the Ryukyus would encounter pirates before they went to sea, and as many as five large ships were missing!

This is something that has never happened since Da Zhao opened the sea ban, and the government and the opposition were shocked. If they are all simple civilian ships, the owners of many ships have the backgrounds of major magnates, and the upper echelons have suffered such huge losses, so they are naturally unwilling to give up. Therefore, the emperor sent a long-trained navy to urgently go to various sea outlets. On the side of Dongjin Mansion, Mi Gui, the governor of the naval army, personally led the team, and cooperated with His Royal Highness the King of Jin to command, while searching for the missing merchants, while pursuing this group of daring pirates and clearing the route.

In fact, those pirates have long disappeared into the vast sea after a big robbery, where can they still find people, and where can they recover their losses? However, this is a declaration of force, but also a gesture, which mainly plays the role of deterrence and threat, indicating that the imperial court will never let the rogue on the sea go unpunished. Be smart, don't provoke again in the future. At the same time, this is also to familiarize the naval army that only knew about inland river warfare with the sea routes, and in the future, to deal with such emergencies, after all, a charter is needed.

For this reason, Xiao Zhen, the king of Jin, who should have returned to Tokyo a long time ago, was tripped and delayed his return.

The second is about Shui Shi Qiao, the leader of the Cao Gang in the south.

The wife of the Cao Gang, the rare beauty Qiu who had run the Mercy Society, wanted to return to her hometown before the Chinese New Year and keep filial piety for her mother-in-law, but something happened in a place two or three days away from home.

It was about eighty miles outside Ningcheng, and one day the cook on the ship was careless and caught fire in the bilge of the main ship. It had to be docked in a natural river harbor urgently. Because of the mountains on both sides, there are no large towns nearby, only a few small villages. But even if it is secluded, after all, it is located in the border of the south of the Yangtze River, and it has always been rich and quiet, but there are mountain bandits in the middle of the night. The Cao Gang's guards were not well prepared, and their belongings were looted, and many people were killed or wounded. The worst thing is that the wife of the helper and the personal maid were brutally killed, and their bodies were thrown into the river. Two days later, it was fished up. Already unrecognizable.

The emperor is furious! It is important to know that the south of the Yangtze River is the land of fish and rice, and the tax accounts for more than 40% of the country. Jiangnan is not peaceful, which means that the foundation of the country is unstable. Besides, the sister-in-law of the future princess also said that she would kill if she killed, this ...... This law and order is too bad! Isn't it too lawless? The most "pitiful" is Shui Shiqiao, who lost his mother a few years ago, and Guan lost his wife in recent years, and his "grief" is so much that he can't help himself. The emperor was sympathetic and specially approved him to return to his hometown to handle the funeral. also posthumously sealed the Qiu grade, which can be regarded as a posthumous decline.

Since the Great Zhao Kingdom changed to the Yuan Qicheng and Xiao Zuo Yuji, it can be regarded as the four seas have been leveled. The people live and work in peace and contentment. Now that two pieces of news came suddenly, even the most sluggish ordinary people realized that the Great Zhao Kingdom was not a country like an iron bucket!

In such a slightly unsettling atmosphere. Liuli still stays in the water house with peace of mind and stays at home. First, he was still in the filial piety period, and secondly, the "elder brother" who was in charge of the family was also gone. Naturally, the Spring Festival will not be overcome, but will fall quietly. No one could have imagined that all of this had a great deal to do with her little woman. At least, Qiu Shuanghua is dead, so he has to squeeze out some "value". So she and Shui Shi Qiao urgently adjusted their plans, and came to a trick. No, it's the West Lead.

Shui Shi Qiao said that he was a funeral, but in fact, he took Qiu Shuanghua's head to his mother's spirit to pay tribute in person. Of course, it was necessary to secretly arrange the Cao Gang to secretly go to the northwest and defect to the Huo Jiajun, which was secretly reorganized. Among them, Tang Chun, who is bent on making contributions, is also included. I only pity Ling Hongdie, for the sake of the future of my father-in-law, I have to be forced to separate. According to their expectations, there will be big movements in the imperial court after the year, and they will naturally have to deal with it. So Shuishi Qiao can take the opportunity to get rid of the trouble of being confined to the capital and respond in the middle.

As for the pirates, Liuli didn't know about it in advance, but later got a letter from Xiao Shiyi, and knew that it was Xiao Shiyi's handwriting. Xiao Shiyi did this, naturally, not to add gambling to his imperial uncle, nor to rob the idea of nothing in his eyes, there must be a greater purpose.

And his foundation in Linshan County, which was originally close to the Northeast Seaport, had secretly developed seaways and shipping routes long before Xiao Zuo opened the sea ban. Outsiders see him as an idle prince, who is lustful and doesn't care about anything. In fact, the small imperial courts of Baekje, Silla, and Goguryeo, which bordered Imsan County, were all secretly funded by him. He also skillfully took advantage of the situation and war of the three kingdoms, pinched the economic lifeline of the three kingdoms in his hands, and also mastered their soldiers as his own mercenaries! Army, no matter how small the Three Kingdoms are, there are millions of soldiers combined!

What is this called in modern times? It is called the financial oligarchy, the invisible behind-the-scenes person, holding the gold yuan in his hands, manipulating the seemingly beautiful head of state, manipulating everything about the country, turning his hands into clouds and covering his hands into rain.

Liuli didn't know about these things before, but with the understanding of Xiao Shiyi's strength, Xiao Shiyi no longer hid his strength from her, and she finally realized that this man was really terrible.

From the age of thirteen to twenty-five, what a decade of forbearance and scheming! Up to now, he has military and financial resources, and because of the operation of Taohuatan, he has also mastered political power. If he wants to subvert the world, he doesn't just talk big, he really has a chance. In fact, Xiao Zuo's Imperial Throne Hall has been infiltrated by Xiao Shiyi to the point that it can be shaken at any time.

"Sister, that defeated subordinate who has fought with you for many years but has never won a battle, the villain who has to use despicable means to vent his anger on the Huo family, the so-called man who I despise even as a woman, soon, I will teach him another lesson for my sister. This will be the last time he will have no chance to turn over. Sister, don't forget to wait for him at the gates of hell and see him once again kneel and prostrate past your eyes. "As usual, when there is too much pressure on my heart, and I can't solve it, Liuli will speak to Huo Honglian's tablet.

"Ordinary people are kept in the dark, but the ministers and magnates with a bit of brains, and the one on the throne, don't know? Jiangnan, especially Ningcheng, although there are mountains, but there are only enough to see the beautiful scenery, not even a small stream of rogues, where are the mountain bandits? It was so fierce that even the main ship of the Cao gang dared to rob it. Murder and looting? Xiao Zuo will soon find out that it was done by Tatars who entered the country disguised as Han Chinese. Liuli smiled sarcastically, "Maybe, he will be suspicious, not so easy to be gullible, but with the movement made by Li Doudou in the northwest, with his personality, he should be like thunder, right?" ”

"Sister, ...... you say" Liuli knelt on the futon, looked up at the tablet, and looked at the clear three words Huo Honglian. Suddenly recalled that when he was six years old, looking at his sister on the horse, he always felt that the sun was shining and warmed his heart, "I used to be a barbarian with a low voice, and suddenly one day not only stole and ate what was behind him, but actually dared to go deep into the hinterland of Da Zhao and stab him in the heart, he will definitely not tolerate it anymore." There's going to be a fight, right? This "he" naturally refers to the current saint Xiao Zuo, "My sister said: Xing, the people are bitter." Lose. The people are bitter. My sister took the initiative to cut the domain, not to fall in love with a man and vow to marry her, not because the Huo family had no men in the future. As a woman, you are powerless to hold up the heavens in the northwest. You don't want civil strife, you don't want the people to experience war again. So. If I knew that I avenged my sister and didn't care about the life and death of the people, my sister would blame me, be sad and sad, and feel that I didn't teach me well. But this time I provoked the border war, not only for my sister, but also for the people of the northwest! ”

There was silence for a moment, and a resolute look appeared on her face, "Since my sister cut the feudal domain on her own and left Ning'an County, the Tatars kept their agreement after signing the alliance with Xiao Zuo under the city, and never sent troops to attack my Dazhao border. The people of Dazhao are all said that Xiao Zuo is heroic and strategic, and the barbarians are afraid of my Dazhao, there is no Huo family to guard it, and the northwest is as peaceful as ever. But the bitterness of the northwest border, how can other people know about it! Yes, the Tatar army is not coming, but the bandits on the border are getting worse and worse, and they are more cruel and shameless than the enemy army! Plundering every year, stepping on horses every year, the border people have only one bitter word. But are those horse thieves really just thieves? They, apparently, are pretended to be Tatars! In terms of equipment and combat effectiveness, how can they be ordinary bandits? This matter is obviously Xiao Zuo's sweetness to the Tatars! Just because of the behind-the-scenes transactions more than ten years ago! Banditry? Hmph, speaking of which, Da Zhao's side is much better. And Zhao Jun didn't care about suppressing bandits and handed them over to the local yamen, and it was much more convenient for the Tatars. Maybe Xiao Zuo is an expedient measure, just wait for the great Zhao force to cultivate, and this problem will eventually be solved. But he sat on the dragon chair, where could he care about the life and death of the people! Obviously, you can fight! But for the sake of the dragon position, he was unwilling to use capable people to strengthen the army. Compared to his power, everything has to give way. My sister is right, such a man has no mind and vision, and he is not worthy of being the lord of the world! Then, I will help him make a decision and let him take the initiative to fight, and he must fight! In this way, the disaster in the northwest will be solved, so that the border people can live and work in peace and contentment, and they can also take the opportunity to make the Huo Jiajun change its face, rise secretly, and defend the side. ”

Speaking of this, Liuli took a deep breath, only to feel that her heart was confided, and her chest was comfortable, as if she had seen the vast land in the northwest. But in the blink of an eye, he stepped down his face again, and even his back, which had been straight, collapsed, and said with difficulty, "But...... But...... What should Xiao Shiyi do? Of course, these things were planned by me and Shi together, and they were also carried out by the elite of the Cao Gang and the remnants of the Huo Family's army, but without that person's response at sea, without him telling me that the time is right now, the effect may not be so good. After that, the direction of the wind in the direction of the wind also depends on his connections...... According to my plan, I originally had to wait for more than ten years after I married Xiao Zhen, because although the Cao Gang is powerful, its foundation is too shallow...... He...... It also contributed to this, so that I didn't have to put myself in it. But in this way, I owe him a great favor, and I don't know what to pay back. ”

Liuli stammered, not realizing that her face was also slightly red, "He said he liked me...... Sister, what should I do? I love stones, but he ...... that day That...... When I think about it later, I don't think much ...... I hate him like this. Then, my sister has to forgive me for being too bad in heart because ...... I might take advantage of him. If you use other people's true feelings, you will be punished, right? ”
