Chapter 272: This Woman, My Master Bought It!
Can Li Luo, as Daru Huachi in Ninghai Prefecture, directly play to the Yuan Court and invite himself to participate in the expedition?
No. That not only fails to achieve the goal, but also attracts people's attention. Because the Yuan Dynasty sent out the generals to fight with great power, not only did they not accept the orders of the foreign monarchs', but they also had a lot of power in the selection of generals. The imperial court can veto the list of generals, but without the general's recommendation, it is almost impossible to be his general.
Otherwise, if the battle is lost, who is it?
According to the practice of the Yuan court, when a general goes on an expedition, he can recommend generals above the fifth rank and below the third rank, and report to the Privy Council for review and appointment. Kim Fangqing is the marshal of the Goryeo expedition to Japan, of course, he has this qualification.
Since Li Luo was here to seek the military position of a general in the Japanese army, he must have carried a lot of gems as valuable gifts. Not only gave it to Li Sign, but also let Li Sign transfer it to Kim's.
Now is not a prosperous age, gems such a luxury, not easy to sell, Luoning Trading Company's gems, is almost unsold, it is better to use it as a favor.
"My nephew has seen my uncle! I heard that the adult is unpredictable, and the nephew is very worried. Li Luo entered the Li family's city, and directly came to visit Li Qi, who was going home to recuperate, and came up with a warm word, and his expression was extremely concerned.
It has been half a month since Li signed back to Renzhou, and he is purely tired. In order to prepare the food, grass, ordnance and warships needed for the Japanese army, Li Qian has been extremely busy recently, and he has to deal with cumbersome government affairs, so he fell ill.
"Get up. The old man is fine, it's just a little sick, he is almost cured, don't worry about the child. Li Jian put down the scroll in his hand, looked up and down at his nephew, who was becoming more and more calm and steady, and was very satisfied.
Lee, there's one more new beam.
As long as Li Luo does not threaten his eldest son Li Zhiyu's future position as the head of the family, he is very willing to support this smart and capable nephew.
"You're going home today, but it's for the sake of the Japanese country?" Li Qi asked with a smile.
Li Luo knew that Li Jian's character was "Luodong Jiangshui", so he should try to follow him as much as possible.
"My lord is really an unpredictable prophet, my nephew came home to visit my lord, and secondly, he did come to recruit for military duty. It's just that now that the adult is in slightly ill health, it seems that the nephew has no filial piety. β
Li Qian waved his hand and said: "As long as you fight for the Li family, you will be filial to the old man." These foreign words will never be mentioned again. β
Li Luo said obediently: "My nephew, as a disciple of the Li family, should win glory for my Li family." β
He said this, but he was secretly amused in his heart. Of course I want to fight for the Li family, but it's not the Renzhou Li family.
Li Qi nodded, "This matter, the old man has already done it." Since I am your adult, of course I will take the initiative to arrange these things for you. β
What the? Li Luo was very surprised. Has the Li signature been completed? He had mentioned this to Li Sign, but he thought that Li Sign didn't attach much importance to it, and if he wanted to achieve his goal, he needed to make another trip himself.
Who knows, Li has already done it?
"My lord, this ......" Li Luo was also a little speechless.
Li signed: "Five days ago, Shangluo Gongjin Fangqing came to visit. The old man has asked him to recommend you as a general of the Japanese army. He promised the old man that he would recommend you as the general of Zhengsipin Zhaowei, lead the guard army to the post of Yu Hou, and lead the Jianghua Naval Division and Xiangyong to follow him to the east. β
Li Luo was a little excited in his heart. The Protector is waiting, okay.
Protector Yu Hou is a fourth-rank military attachΓ©, and his rank is enough. More importantly, the escort Yu Hou is not only a general, but also a general, leading a partial division, with the main force of the Chinese army, and does not walk with the main force of the Chinese army, and has a certain degree of command autonomy.
It can be said that the military protector Yu Hou is the most suitable military position for Li Luo. He had only mentioned it to Li Qian once before, but he didn't expect Li Qi to forget it.
Li Qian said again: "However, don't be happy yet. As the head coach of Goryeo, although Sannak Gong has the qualifications to recommend generals, whether it is approved depends on the above. Of course, the king would not reject Shangluo Gong's recommendation. You are the queen again, and the queen will speak for you. It's just that in the end, the list of all generals still has to be reported to the Privy Council of the Yuan Court. β
The personnel power of the military attache in the Yuan Dynasty was not in the military department, but in the Privy Council. The Privy Council of the Yuan Court had a very strict grasp of the personnel power of military generals, which was regarded as an ancient version of political trial. The army of this crusade was as high as 200,000, and there were at least dozens of middle-level generals of the fourth grade, but each candidate had to be reviewed by the Privy Council. The Koreans were better, especially the Han generals, and the censorship was even stricter.
Li Luo said: "Your Excellency, rest assured, the Privy Council envoy is the prince, although he doesn't care about the affairs of the court, but presumably the Privy Council also knows that his nephew is a 'princeling', and this face should be given." β
He was not worried about the Privy Council. As soon as his resume is reported, the Privy Council will naturally find out about his "relationship" with the Prince. Anyway, a four-rank military general with thousands of soldiers and horses, and he is not a Han Chinese, so there is no need to refute Jin Fangqing's face for this.
Li Qian stroked his beard and nodded: "That's good." Anyway, the old man can only help you half, and the other half is on your own. β
Li Luo picked up an apple, peeled it and handed it to Li Qi, "My lord, my nephew has one more thing to do about the expedition......
Li Qi took the apple, "You can't talk about Xiang Yong's armor and weapons, right?" When this matter is finalized and you are sure that you can go to war, the old man will naturally complete the armor and weapons of the village warriors. β
Li Luo couldn't help but secretly praise Li Qian for his shrewdness, and said: "It's really wise and unprecedented, it's just about the armor." β
Is Li Luo really short of armor and weapons now? To be honest, at least the soldiers and horses under his command can already be dressed in armor.
On Jianghua's side, the sailor is an elite officer and army in Goryeo, and he already has armor. As for Xiang Yong, Li Qian had already approved 500 armors before, and also seized thousands of Han Gong's armors, plus those made in Haidong and obtained from the military map, and this time Pu Shougeng was captured, and there were more than 10,000 pairs.
However, as long as there is an opportunity to ask for armor and weapons, Li Luo will definitely not give up. Which careerist would be disgusted with more armor and weapons?
While the uncle and nephew were discussing, suddenly Li Huizhi, the concubine of Li Sign, came in and said: "My lord, Zhen Liangxiu is about to be sold, she is a first-order retainer after all, and my mother asked me to ask what my lord meant." β
Li Luo's heart moved, Zhen Liangxiu, isn't it Zhen Shangyuan? She is the old minister of the Li family, and she is also Li Jian's nursing sister back then, what did she do to be sold?
In Li Luo's impression, Zhen Shangyuan is very smart, loyal to the Li family, and very good to himself.
"Fourth sister, what did this Zhen Liangxiu do?" Li Luo couldn't help but ask.
Li Hui asked: "It's ridiculous, she is also an old man in the house, she is a monk, isn't she decent among the slaves?" But her hands and feet were not clean, and she was guarding and stealing from herself. This time I only sold her, and I already had a face. β
Li Qian said coldly: "This slave is really bold, and the master's things dare to steal, which is bad for my Li family." It is said that she should be killed to set an example, and for the sake of her many years of service, she will be sent to Renzhou Nu City. β
Li Hui asked: "What the adults said is, then send it away." Hmph, I don't want to be a decent slave in the Li family, but I want to be sold to a small family as a cheap slave, I really deserve it. β
That's what it's going to sell.
Li Luo felt a little unbearable in his heart, Zhen Shangyuan gave him a good impression, originally this time he lived in 'Lanchi Xiyuan' again, and he wanted to meet this aunt.
Would such a smart person as Zhen Shangyuan steal the things of the lord? Li Luo was very skeptical.
Li Luo said: "I thought this person was a smart and polite person, but I didn't expect it to be so unbearable. β
Li Hui said with a smile: "It's also a little interesting to say." This Zhen Liangxiu was about to be sold, but he didn't cry or make trouble, but was very calm, it was time to accept his fate. β
Li Luo saw that this "fourth sister" was at a good age, but her heart was so cold, and she didn't have the slightest idea of forgiveness.
Li Luo also had no intention of living in the Li family city anymore, and after meeting the "aunt" Jin family and a few "cousins", he left gifts and left the Li family town under the pretext of being busy with official business.
Ironically, when he left the Li family's city, among the "brothers and sisters", there was still only this "fourth sister" who he thought was cold-hearted to send him off, and he was still a little real to him.
Oh man, it's too complicated. Li signed yes, and so did Li Huiqian.
When Li Luo went back, he passed through Renzhou City, thought about it, and entered the city and came to the "slave city" in the east of the city.
There were thousands of slaves being sold in Renzhou Slave City at this time, and Li Luo searched for a while before he found a familiar face.
It was a slave girl dressed in white, and it was Zhen Shangyuan. Of course, she is no longer a Shangyuan.
Zhen Dongxiu was a first-order retainer in the top gate lord mansion before, although he was a slave, his living treatment was much better than that of ordinary people. Therefore, even if she is down now, she still has a good bearing, and her expression is very calm, and there is no sadness and despair.
"Hmph, although this old woman looks good, she is an old woman after all, where can she be worth ten times? I've seen the sky go through six times. A mean-looking man pointed at Zhen Dongxiu and said to the slave traders.
The slave trader had just taken over Zhen Dongxiu from the Li family, and he didn't spend a penny of money, which was a gift from the Li family. The Li family sold Zhen Dongxiu, of course, not to sell slaves for money, but to punish.
"You're not right." The slave trader said, "She's a slave from the Li family, understand?" Before the change, you weren't even qualified to touch it? Got it? She can read and count, you know? β
The mean guest snorted, "I know, I know a fart!" I just know that she's an old woman, and she can't make me happy. β
The slave trader squinted his eyes and smiled, "Brother, you don't understand this." At her age, she knows how to serve men best...... And she's not old, she looks like she's in her early thirties, and she is also a big beauty for more than ten years. Look at her ......"
Zhen Shangyuan listened to the foul words of the two men, and his originally plain expression suddenly turned red, and his eyes finally showed a look of shame and sadness.
"This woman, my master bought it! Ten runs! Hurry up and hand over the deed! Suddenly, a young man wearing leather armor and carrying a straight knife at his waist said proudly, and with a wave of his hand, he threw out a silver ingot weighing ten taels.
"You see it's real, this is a white hammer worth twenty yuan, it's really cheap, you pickled dog! Find ten dollars with me! β
The slave trader took the silver and immediately said, "Oh, your master is really a good eye, Smecta, it must be a nobleman, Smecta!" β
