After the military meeting, Li Zhongyi brought Zhou Daozhong from the ship, and some things had to be explained, so as not to make mistakes in Zhou Daozhong.

"Brother Zhongping, Zhang Yongde, Zhang Baoyi is about to take over as the pacification envoy of Goryeo." Li Zhongyi picked up the tea cup and gently blew the noodle soup with the tea leaves, but he didn't look at Zhou Daozhong.

Zhou Daozhong is not a stupid person, because he has many contacts with some important ministers in the court, smuggling Goryeo maids, Korean ginseng and Goryeo native products, he even knew the news that Zhang Yongde was coming to pick peaches before Li Zhongyi.

"Enxiang, the last general said something from the bottom of his heart, before following you, the future of the last general is bleak, and dealing with some craftsmen or peddlers and pawns who are engaged in miscellaneous labor all day long, even if he can make some money, it is extremely limited." When Zhou Daozhong spoke, he did not deliberately avoid Li Zhongyi's gaze, and looked very calm, "Don't hide your kindness, Fan Xianggong and Zhang Baoyi secretly sent people to win over the last general." The last general should be damned, there should not be a selfish desire to look forward to the future, and he did not refuse their solicitation on the spot. ”

After Li Zhongyi heard this, he couldn't help but smile slightly, Zhou Zhongping had followed him for so many years, but he also touched his temper.

In front of Li Zhongyi, as long as you are willing to tell the truth, with Li Xianggong's mind, you will never care if you say that you don't care.

If in front of Li Zhongyi, he pushes back and deceives, Li Zhongyi is definitely not a good gentleman who does not dare to be ruthless.

"Eun Xiang, there will be a request at the end, please grant it." Perhaps it was because he found that Li Zhongyi had not squeaked, and Zhou Dao Center tightened his head, and hurriedly put out the ideas planned in advance, "Don't hide it from Enxiang, some unscrupulous officers and soldiers of the Navy Division are indeed very infamous, and the last general asks Enxiang to send more capable calmers and military judges to be stationed in the Navy Division to clean up the portal and get rid of the black sheep." ”

Li Zhongyi curled the corners of his mouth slightly, and smiled faintly, this Zhou Daozhong is a wonderful person, at this juncture, asking him to send someone to supervise the water master is equivalent to expressing his loyal attitude.

However, at this juncture, if Li Zhongyi really sent more officers and mixed into the water division, it would be tantamount to telling Zhou Daozhong in disguise that Li Xianggong did not particularly trust him.

Facing the tentative balloon sent by Zhou Daozhong, Li Zhongyi smiled, waved his hand calmly and said, "Zhongping, I can trust you, and there is no need to mention the matter of sending people." ”

Zhou Daozhong secretly breathed a sigh of relief, he was really a little worried, in case Li Zhongyi pushed the boat down the river and inserted a lot of Li Jiajun's manpower, then he was really a little tricky.

Among the sailors, the level of official positions and the amount of benefits are actually a one-to-one correspondence. If Li Zhongyi's people are allowed to intervene horizontally, whether it is the power of the open or the benefits of the covert, it will definitely damage the vested interests of Zhou Daozhong's subordinates.

At the moment when Zhang Yongde was about to pick peaches, Li Zhongyi would stimulate Zhou Daozhong's old subordinates at this time unless his brain was in water.

To tell the truth, among the sailors, there are already a lot of people arranged by Li Zhongyi, but most of these people are in technical positions.

For example, in more technical jobs such as helmsmen, sailors, lookout posts, and lever operators, almost all of them have assistants sent in by Li Zhongyi.

For Li Zhongyi's arrangement, Zhou Daozhong can be completely understood and tolerated, after all, his big backer is Li Xianggong. Then, the sailor must obey Li Zhongyi's arrangement in some aspects, and it is impossible to be an outright emperor of the soil.

"Enxiang, you should send some brothers from the Judge Advocate General's Department on board, to tell the truth, the smuggling behavior within the sailors is becoming more and more rampant, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to control it in the future." Zhou Daozhong was very pleased with Li Zhongyi's magnanimity, but he was still a little uneasy, and wanted to test Li Zhongyi's true attitude further.

Li Zhongyi's heart is like a mirror, how can Zhou Daozhong, who has relied on him in the middle of the way, be loyal to him and the protégés trained by the martial arts hall?

Unlike the Yulin Four Guards under Li Zhongyi's direct jurisdiction, the sailor was just a temporary follower of Li Zhongyi's dispatch by the edict, and in essence, at most he was a guest army to help transport it.

Previously, Li Zhongyi was almost assassinated on the Licheng River, and Zhou Daozhong was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, because Fan Zhen and Zhang Yongde did not have Corporal Lixian's wooing him.

Today, the sailors, who were vital to the Goryeo Kingdom, have been highly valued by the imperial court, Fan Zhen and Zhang Yongde, and Zhou Daozhong's value has also risen sharply.

It's just that the truth of the facts is very clear in the center of Zhou Dao, if Li Zhongyi is really destroyed, he Zhou Zhongping will definitely be at the mercy of the important ministers of the court like a child without his own mother.

Now, no matter how much benefit Fan Quality gives to Zhou Daozhong, in the future, after Zhou Daozhong loses his big backer, Fan Zhen only needs to purse his lips and take it back doublely.

Li Zhongyi can see that Zhou Daozhong is a person who understands, and he will never be confused in the face of major events. However, Zhou Daozhong still has the genes of a warlord on his body, and he takes the control of the sailor very seriously, and he doesn't want Li Zhongyi to interfere too deeply.

In fact, Li Zhongyi didn't plan to meddle too much in the affairs of the water master. In the final analysis, the current sailors are just the masters of inland rivers, and if they really want to cross the ocean to conquer overseas colonies, they must build large sea ships that are truly suitable for naval warfare.

Li Zhongyi patted Zhou Daozhong's shoulder affectionately, and after a gentle reassurance, Zhou Daozhong's originally slightly hesitant mentality became extremely firm.

"Please relax, the last general is not a fool, it is precisely because of your promotion that the last general has today's glory." When Zhou Daozhong was parting, he suddenly knelt on his knees and kowtowed three times, "The minister swears to follow the lord to the death, even if he is broken, he has no regrets." ”

After sending Zhou Daozhong away, Li Zhongyi just returned to the study when he received a handwritten letter from Yang Lie.

"Confused!"

"Stupid as a pig!"

Li Zhongyi was furious, and he was furious, and he was furious in front of Han Xianglan for the first time in history.

At first, Li Zhongyi thought it was just a simple military report, but he didn't expect that it was Chu Xiong of the First Army's throat reprimanding team, because he wanted to keep Yang Xiaoyi, who had made miraculous achievements, in the throat reprimanding team and train him as a successor.

"If you don't reward your merits, how can you govern the army? How can the soldiers be convinced? The more Li Zhongyi thought about it, the more he thought about it, the more he felt Chu Xiong's contemptible, and the more he pondered it, the more angry he became, and in the end, he roared like thunder.

In Han Xianglan's impression, no matter how difficult things Li Zhongyi encountered, he always had a calm demeanor, and he rarely felt so angry and out of shape.

"Come on, pass my handwritten message to Li Yanqing, and order him to personally take people, go to Yuguan quickly, and arrest Chuxiong for Lao Tzu." Once Li Zhongyi opened the ring, it was rude words, "The turtle son's almost broke Lao Tzu's tiger general, can he afford to pay for his surname Chu?" ”

", what are you doing? Don't you have long ears? If you don't grind the ink, Lao Tzu will burst your chrysanthemum. ”

Just when Han Xianglan was distracted, Li Zhongyi called her three times in a row, but there was no response, and the result was tragic, and the artillery fire was transferred to her.

Han Xianglan trembled with fright, the slender jade wrist that was grinding the ink shook in a wavy shape, and the fingertips pinching the inkstone were like playing a pipa, trembling endlessly.

Li Zhongyi glared at Han Xianglan viciously, and didn't bother to pay attention to her for the time being, he picked up his pen and wrote an order on the snow-white new paper.

If Han Xianglan hadn't been frightened, she would definitely peek at the truth on the paper: Li Zhongyi was angry, and he actually demoted his most proud protégé Yang Lie by three levels, temporarily inspected the head of Yuguan, and made meritorious contributions to see the after-effects.

After the emergency military order was issued, Li Zhongyi stood by the window with a gloomy face and did not say a word for a long time.

Han Xianglan was so scared that she would die, but she was afraid that Li Zhongyi, who was in anger, would reward someone casually, or be kicked out of the study and degraded to serve Ye Xiaolan.

If she was really sent to serve Ye Xiaolan, who was pregnant and raising her baby, it would be a nightmare for Han Xianglan.

Just when Han Xianglan wanted to put on her wings, wanting to avoid Li Zhongyi's ears and eyes, and flew out of the disaster of the study unconsciously, Li Zhongyi suddenly walked up to her, raised his hand and pinched her delicate and graceful jaw, ", what are you doing?" Tell him to go down and bring food and drink. ”

Han Xianglan nodded hurriedly, took a small step and ran out of the room, looking for the chef in the small kitchen.

After getting through the extreme panic, Han Xianglan had an idea, carefully instructed the chef to deal with the dishes and drinks, and ran to find Li Yunxiao.

After Li Yunxiao heard the news, she couldn't help but froze, looked at Han Xianglan stupidly, and couldn't say a word for a long time.

I don't know how long it took, Li Yunxiao suddenly slapped her thigh, beckoned Han Xianglan to her, and whispered to her: "Master's mood is obviously very bad, this situation is extremely rare, if you let Master hold back, God knows what will happen?" Since the lord ordered the wine and food, hehe, doesn't the lord often say that the drunk lies on the knees of the beauty? It's better to find a few more beauties, accompany the master, scatter your heart, and have fun, and then the anger will naturally disappear, do you understand? ”

Han Xianglan saw that Li Yunxiao's gaze kept revolving around her, and then her gaze drifted to the west of the backyard, she pondered for a while, and she understood in her heart.

A few days ago, the Khitan princess Yelu was just secretly received by Li Yunxiao to Kaijing, and she happened to live on the west side of the back house.

"Well, I know you're a smart woman, and now it's not as good as it used to be, and it's not easy for me to show up over there. Find a few maidservants and find an opportunity to put Jeruvashi to sleep...... Hold it to the master's side again...... Got it? ”

"This ...... Will this work? That's the Khitan princess, Ye really touched her...... It is tantamount to rebellion ......" Han Xianglan thought that Li Yunxiao would let her, a righteous study maid, accompany Li Zhongyi to drink, and then serve the pillow naturally, but she didn't think that Li Yunxiao actually hit Yelu's idea.

"Xiao Xiang'er, I often say that you are a smart person, I think, he is as stupid as a donkey." Li Yunxiao pursed her lips and taught Han Xianglan angrily, "With your knowledge, don't you know that people in the temple can't help themselves." If you don't become the emperor in the future, our old subordinates and you, the maid and maid in the room with the word Li engraved on their foreheads, will all be finished together, there will be absolutely no good end, where is there a way out? ”

"The Khitans have a lot of blood debts, so why not let their beautiful princesses repay a little flesh debt?" Li Yunxiao saw that Han Xianglan was still a little hesitant, so she put on a smiling face and said, "Aunt Ye was not favored before, but since she became a grandmother, not only did she get pregnant quickly, but she will be ...... in the future."

Han Xianglan pondered carefully, and understood in an instant, she was worried that she couldn't find a chance to get close to Li Zhongyi, but she didn't expect that Li Yunxiao actually came up with this kind of bad trick in order to tempt her to help do bad things.

Why not?
