The boat carried the people home and sailed towards Yangsan.

Diao Gui and Diao Chun brothers of the Navy Department personally operated the oars for Zhao Yue's boat.

This ship is not big, and there are only three passengers on board: Zhao Yue, He Xuantong, and Kui San.

Zhao Yue stood at the bow of the boat, scanning the changes in the water for several months, then looked up at the gloomy sky, stretched out his hand to catch a few snowflakes that fell from the stars but were swept by the cold wind on the berth, and sighed to He Xuantong, who was accompanying him: "Time flies, the cold winter is coming, and the year will pass again." ”

He Xuantong smiled and said, "Yes." The years are ruthless, changing the world, looking back, the vicissitudes of life. Fortunately, we have had a gratifying harvest this year, and we have not wasted the most precious time. ”

This is naturally not Zhao Yue's Liangshan, but the pirate empire behind Liangshan.

This year's fight in exchange for tens of millions of people and the wealth of almost the entire East Asian continent is completely an incredible miracle, and even Zhao Yue himself can't help but feel that all this is not so real every time he thinks about it, as if in a sweet dream.

This incident also reflects the backwardness of this era from the side, and it also vividly proves that the once powerful Liao State and the once prosperous Song State are both gold and jade, and they are all in ruin, and they are decaying to the extent of unbearable. It is strange that such a big country, which has lost its sharpness and enterprising spirit, will not be eliminated by the ruthless times and will not be quietly annihilated by time.

He Xuantong stood beside Zhao Yue this time, and his previous feelings were very different, and his gaze at Zhao Yue unconsciously brought deep awe, and he no longer had the indifferent detachment of a monk.

Because, the person who swept the Three Kingdoms and almost subverted the situation in the big countries in the East was the inconspicuous young man in front of him.

What kind of strong hand is this hidden in the depths?!

What wisdom, courage and strength does it take?!

The people in the Pirate Empire all said that Zhao Yue, the Prince of Imperial Treasure, was a god, the true god of the present world, maybe Zhao Yue was really a mortal god, otherwise how could he have such great power?

He Xuantong couldn't help but appreciate his luck more deeply.

I was lucky to meet this god-like and mysterious boy and went to Liangshan.

If it weren't for this, a Taoist priest like him, who had some ability, would be at a loss in such an unpredictable situation, and he would not know that he would fall into a disaster, and his fate could be imagined.

In Liangshan, what he got was not only the status and respect he gained by living a peaceful and calm life and playing that role, but also the opportunity to participate in changing the world and an unimaginably infinitely better future.

His name, accompanied by Zhao Yue's deeds, will surely be passed down to future generations and even through the ages....... It's not that he has become an immortal, and the Tao is also a heroic spirit that lives forever in heaven and earth...... He is a Taoist priest, and he attaches the most importance to this kind of thing, so he will always be excited and unable to sleep all night.

After admiring the scenery for a while, Zhao Yue said: "I'm afraid this winter will be a heavy snow year. I am afraid that the area of the frozen water pool will not be small, and it will be a hindrance, and the ice thickness is a hidden danger. ”

He Xuantong understood what Zhao Yue meant, nodded and said, "Your Highness doesn't have to worry. Shuibo was renovated by the Taohuashan robbers, and the shallow water area that was easy to freeze in the surrounding key areas was gone. The natural barrier area of the reeds is more labyrinth and difficult to break through, and the invisible dark sentry card hidden in the highlands of the reeds, if those with ill intentions want to take advantage of the convenience of the big winter ice to touch the water and sneak into Liangshan to spy on my reality, hum"

Zhao Yue smiled: This old Taoist is definitely a professional talent to engage in these organs and gossip arrays.

"What's the news about the new government around us? What's going on? ”

He Xuantong smiled when he heard this: "There really is." His Royal Highness doesn't mention it, but the poor road also has to talk about it. It's kind of interesting. ”

"Oh?"

"Tell me about it."

"Hehe, after the robbers of Peach Blossom Mountain made trouble in Liangshan, the court was forced by the eldest prince, and the official mansions around us were reshuffled. Those filthy officials and soldiers who are obsessed with money will either be transferred to the border to drink the northwest wind and eat sand, or they will be transferred to Qingzhou to take the risk of robbers in such a dangerous way. The new prefect of Jeju Prefecture was transferred by Murong Lao'er, the prefect of Qingzhou, which was something that His Highness had before he went to Mount Tai to fight, and His Highness knew. But who is the new Jeju Soldier and Horse Commander, Your Highness might as well guess? ”

Zhao Yue became interested and looked at He Xuantong.

He Xuantong said with a smile: "Poor Dao gives His Highness a wake-up call." That person likes to laugh the most, always has a smiling face, and once had a 'friendship' with the eldest son. ”

As soon as Zhao Yue heard this, a figure immediately appeared in his mind, and blurted out: "Is it him?" Wang Huan? ”

"Yes, it is after the lineage of the founding lord Wang, Wang Huan."

The man's smile was like it was on his face. Hi also laughs. Angry laughs. It is a smiling face when calculating people. It's the same smiling face when the killer stabs the knife. This person is interesting, with his outdated knowledge and methods, he is not worthy of being our Liangshan's opponent, but he is indeed an interesting scourge. Poor Road has traveled the world for nearly 20 years, and has almost traveled all over the Great Song Dynasty, but it is also the first time to see such a person in the world. In any case, this person is also a talent. This kind of heart must be insidious and outstanding, and it cannot be underestimated. ”

Zhao Yue recognized He Xuantong's best art of observing people, and he also deeply agreed with this kind of commentary on Wang Huan's arguments.

Wang Huan is a military bastard from a high-ranking general's family, and he is very bluffing in military affairs but has no outstanding military talents, but he is definitely a good player in playing political mixed officialdom....... In this era, he has all the psychological qualities and skills required to be an official, and he is excellent in many all-rounds.

Zhao Yue is clear: At the beginning, the eldest brother was transferred from the central government to his hometown as an official, and he was appointed as the governor of Cangzhou, and it was this Wang Huan who served as the commander of Cangzhou's soldiers and horses, responsible for cooperating with the Zhizhou army to guard the Cangzhou border pass, and at the same time, he was secretly ordered by the emperor and some traitors in the court to be responsible for controlling the army and firmly monitoring the eldest brother. This guy has an extraordinary noble family background as a backer, has the support of the emperor and some important members of the imperial court, and he is a super oily bureaucrat and vicious military attache with a lot of eyes, very scheming and thick-skinned, if it weren't for the eldest brother's extraordinary skills, the solid and strong support of his hometown from intelligence to network economy, and the biggest advantage of being favored by the emperor and placing some high hopes on him at that time, it is not so easy to rectify Wang Huan's honesty, and it is impossible to force Wang Huan to consciously transfer out of Cangzhou, and not to be a stumbling block. This person is not the material for success, he is definitely a master of bad things, and he is definitely more than ruined...... In this late Song Dynasty, there were too many bureaucrats like Wang Huan, but no matter how many there were, Wang Huan was definitely the best among them......

This person didn't do anything in Cangzhou at the beginning, but he was stained with Zhao Gonglian's light, and he also made meritorious contributions to Liao, so he automatically applied for transfer, and Gao Sheng returned to Tokyo to enjoy his fortune.

But this is not enmity, but hatred.

Wang Huan was promoted decently, and he returned to Tokyo, where he wanted to stay the most, as a military attaché, but he was ashamed to stay and had no face before he consciously left Cangzhou.

This alone is a great enmity.

What's more: he failed to complete the monitoring task secretly assigned to him by the emperor and the ministers, and also showed his incompetence and decay in the process of strengthening the army in Cangzhou....... Embroidered pillows and straw-wrapped paper tigers disappointed the blind emperor Zhao Ji and those powerful ministers...... Wang Huan returned to Beijing and there was no real sweetness to enjoy. The official rank is high, but there is almost no real power and oil and water, which is equivalent to hanging up like a loose official who enjoys treatment, and this hanging is until the emperor needs him to deal with Liangshan again......

This hatred is even greater. From this, it is conceivable that Wang Huan became the prisoner of Jeju soldiers and horses, what his attitude towards Liangshan would be.

He Xuantong sneered: "The imperial court transferred Wang Huan here, on the pretext that he and the eldest prince used to be colleagues with tacit understanding between the civil and military forces of the upper and lower levels, and they were old, and they became the military governor of Jeju who has jurisdiction over Liangshan, and they will treat our Liangshan correctly and kindly." Zhao Ji, tsk, I don't know if I'm too smart, or if I'm taking us for fools. “
