Shen Liangqiu groaned slightly, and finally shook his head and said: "Master Hou, General Xin, forgive the humble general for being rude, the coffin of the Grand Governor, no one can move it today." ”

Qi Ning frowned and said, "General Shen, what do you mean by this?" General Xin represents the old marquis, and now that the governor is leaving, General Xin will replace the old marquis to see him for the last time, which should also be human nature, right? ”

"Master Hou, although the humble general is the general of the Grand Governor, he is like a brother." Shen Liangqiu's expression was grim: "The so-called deceased is the greatest, the Metropolitan Governor has already gone, and I, as a brother, must not let anyone disturb his peace." ”

"General Shen, it's not that we're rude." Qi Ning's face also turned cold: "When the Metropolitan Governor was buried, General Xin had not yet arrived in the East China Sea, so it can't be said that General Xin didn't want to see the Metropolitan Governor, right?" ”

Xin Ci's face also turned cold, and he said lightly: "Not to mention that the old marquis misses the Dadu Governor, Xin also watched the Dadu Governor grow up, and to say something offensive, he also regarded the Dadu as his own child." Seeing this last side of Xin today, isn't it too much? Staring at Shen Liangqiu, he said coldly: "Liangqiu, I know the friendship between you and the Grand Duke, but when you think of brotherhood, you can't ignore the feelings of others?" ”

Qi Ning said: "General Xin, General Shen said that he was worried about delaying time, so we don't need to say much, in order not to miss the hour, now open the coffin immediately, you take a look, that is, Ben Hou will accompany you to go over to see the Metropolitan Governor for the last time." After speaking, he was about to go to the side of the ship, Xin Ci turned around and followed, Shen Liangqiu's figure flashed, he actually stopped in front, shook his head and said: "Master Hou, General Xin, today is to be convicted, and he must keep the peace of the governor of the capital." ”

Qi Ning and Xin Ci glanced at each other, both frowning, and Shen Liangqiu said with a straight face: "After the burial, it is for peace, and the two of you want to open the coffin now, absolutely not." If the Governor of Dadu Quanxia has knowledge and knows that you are going to open the coffin but I am indifferent, then when I see the Governor of Dadu under Jiuquan in the future, I will not be able to explain. If the two of you really want to open the coffin, then please issue a holy decree, or have a handwritten letter from the old marquis, otherwise..... Forgiveness will not be able to obey fate! ”

Xin Ci sneered, put his hands behind his back, stared at Shen Liangqiu's eyes and said, "Shen Liangqiu, what the hell are you doing?" Asking for a holy decree? What do you mean? ”

"The lowly general who should have said it has already been said." Shen Liangqiu did not back down, his eyes were sharp: "The Metropolitan Governor treated the soldiers like brothers before his death, and now we must not watch the Metropolitan Governor be offended and ignore them." Xiang Qi Ning arched his hand and said: "If the Hou Ye wants to punish the crime, wait until the Dadu Governor is buried in the sea, and the humble general will be willing to accept the crime!" ”

Shen Liangqiu's voice was behind, and the officers and soldiers of the navy on the side couldn't help but take a step forward.

Xin Ci's expression was calm, but Qi Ning was also unfazed, but Chen Ting and other officials all changed color slightly.

Shen Liangqiu's sentence of "treat the soldiers as if they were brothers" pulled the officers and soldiers of the sailor division on the ship over, which meant to tell the officers and soldiers of the sailor present that now the coffin of the governor of the capital is going to be opened, and you must not turn a blind eye.

Although Shen Liangqiu said that after the sea burial, he was left to Qi Ning's disposal, but in the eyes of people who don't know the truth, Shen Liangqiu stepped forward in order to protect the coffin of the Shentai Burning Lin from being disturbed, but he was a good man who valued love and righteousness.

Qi Ning sighed: "General Shen is really affectionate and righteous to the Metropolitan Governor. ”

"The lowly generals don't dare, but the Metropolitan Governor treated the lowly generals deeply and righteously during his lifetime, and the lowly generals can only do this last thing for him now." Shen Liangqiu's expression was gloomy, and there was even a trace of sadness between his eyebrows: "If Master Hou can fulfill his mind, he will be grateful." ”

Qi Ning nodded and said, "General Shen has such intentions, but it is this Hou abrupt." ”

"Don't dare! Shen Liangqiu hurriedly said.

Qi Ning walked back to the bow of the boat, looked at the lucky boat, looked up at the sky again, and said: "Since this is the case, let's not delay, how to carry out the sea burial ceremony, General Shen will follow the rules." ”

Chen Ting and the others thought that Shen Liangqiu would cause a storm if they prevented Xin Ci from boarding the blessing ship, but they were relieved to see that Qi Ning was reasonable.

Everyone came to participate in the sea burial ceremony, hoping that the funeral would go smoothly and that they would be able to return to shore as soon as possible.

Shen Liangqiu also seemed to be relieved, arched his hand to Qi Ning, and was about to give orders, but at this moment, he heard someone shouting loudly: "There is a boat coming, there is a boat coming!" The people followed the sound, but the sound came from the lookout on the mast.

The lookout is the highest place for warships, and whenever a warship goes to sea, there must be someone on the lookout to observe the situation at sea.

Shen Liangqiu's face was cold, today's sea burial in Taitai, except for the ships for the funeral, all the warships of the East China Sea Division are moored at the dock, and this is a military restricted area, and the fishermen who fish at sea do not dare to approach this sea area, and the sudden appearance of ships at this time is naturally not trivial.

"To the southeast, approaching this side, there's only one ship." The sailor above said loudly.

Shen Liangqiu had already said in a loud voice: "The whole ship is on alert!" ”

As soon as he gave the order, the sound of thumping footsteps sounded on the deck, the officers and men of the navy were well-trained and in their positions, and the warship in front also sounded the horn, apparently to warn that an unknown ship had been found here.

"Master Hou, please enter the cabin first!" Shen Liangqiu said with a straight face: "Wait until the situation is clarified, and then report to you." ”

Chen Ting and other civil officials were really a little flustered at this time, most of these officials were going to sea for the first time, but they had long known that the sea bandits were arrogant, although it was only thirty miles away from the coast, but after all, there were some roads, if there were really sea bandits attacking, the situation would be extremely troublesome.

Chen Ting and the others were about to go to the cabin, but Qi Ning had already said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, it's just an unknown ship, you are at a loss?" ”

Jin Yihou reprimanded, and the officials present were suddenly a little embarrassed.

The two escort warships dispatched this time, which were the main warships of the East China Sea Division, would never be at a disadvantage even if they encountered three or five sea bandit ships.

"General, a white flag has been hung on the opposite side!" The soldier above said: "There are still words written on the white flag, but now I can't see what is written?" ”

Everyone present knew that once the enemy army hung up the white flag, it meant to surrender.

Now a strange ship came, and the white flag was hoisted from afar, and everyone present really didn't know what kind of medicine was being sold in the other party's gourd.

The East China Sea army was in full array, the sword was unsheathed and the bow was wound, and the ship in the distance gradually approached, and after a while, the spies at the lookout shouted downward: "Report, it seems that the other party's flag is ..... There is a word 'injustice' written on it! ”

"Wrong?" Chen Ting was surprised: "What does that mean?" ”

"General, the people on the ship are all wearing mourning clothes!" The spy said, "There are not many of them, and they don't seem to be hostile. ”

Qi Ning also walked to the side of the ship at this time, and dozens of officials behind him were all looking over there, and Shen Liangqiu was also standing beside Qi Ning, with a frosty face and eyes like knives, staring at the ship.

There was silence in all directions, and Qi Ning finally said: "General Shen, the other party does not seem to be hostile, and if the order goes on, no one is allowed to do it without Benhou's orders." ”

"The humble will be ordered!"

A moment later, the ship had approached, and at this time, everyone on Qi Ning's side could even see the situation on the opposite boat clearly, and saw several people standing on the bow of the opposite boat, all of them were really dressed in white mourning clothes, and on the mast of the ship, there was a white flag fluttering, and on it was actually a blood-red word "injustice", which was red in the sun.

"Who's coming?" Shen Liangqiu raised his mid-air and said sharply: "This is the training place of the East China Sea Army, and there has long been a ban, if an irrelevant ship trespasses without permission, the military law will do it." ”

A person on the bow of the boat opposite said in a loud voice: "Is Jinyi waiting on the boat?" The grass people have great grievances and ask for revenge! ”

Chen Ting, the assassin of the East China Sea, stood beside Qi Ning, took two steps forward when he heard this, and said loudly: "If you have a grievance, you went to the government to submit a complaint, why did you come here to complain?" Today is ..... What nonsense! ”

He is a civil official, and he can't live in the middle of the air, but fortunately, the distance between the two ships is not too far, and the wind direction is along the opposite side, Chen Ting shouted at the throat, and the other side seemed to understand Chen Ting's words, and said loudly: "This grievance is too big, even if the East China Sea Thorn Mansion is afraid, it can't be the master." ”

Chen Ting's face suddenly became a little ugly.

Although he has no right to interfere with the East China Sea Master, on the ground of the East China Sea, he is a big official, and the other side even said that the grievances of the East China Sea Assassin Mansion cannot even call the shots, which is equivalent to slapping him in front of everyone, which makes Chen Ting really a little annoyed.

Qi Ning put his hands behind his back and said in a loud voice: "Ben Hou is Jinyi Hou, what grievances do you have to complain to Ben Hou here?" If there is a real grievance, go to the Assassin Mansion tomorrow, and Ben Hou will wait for you there. ”

"Master Hou, if you miss today, I'm afraid that you won't have a chance to avenge your grievances in the future." The person on the other side was full of anger, and his voice came, and everyone present heard it clearly: "And the murderer is at the scene today, and the victim is also at the scene, so it is a good time to solve the case." ”

Shen Liangqiu sneered: "Master Hou has already spoken, and he still wants to mess around here?" When the case is decided, is it up to you to order, step back immediately, otherwise no wonder Ben will not be polite. ”

Qi Ning said: "General Shen, the other party should also know that this is a forbidden area, knowing this, but still causing trouble, it seems that there is really a big grievance." ”

"Master Hou, the hour is coming, if you deal with this matter at this time, you will have to delay the funeral of the Grand Duke." Shen Liangqiu said: "The humble general is invited to pass the hour, if you miss the hour, it is really unlucky." ”

Qi Ning bowed his head slightly, and said over there: "You said that the murderer was at the scene, who is the murderer?" ”

"Master Hou, the murderer is by your side right now." The opposite side said loudly: "Shen Liangqiu, the deputy general of the East China Sea Division, is a wolf-hearted dog-lung, insidious and vicious, this person will take revenge, set up a poisonous plan to kill people, and today he will destroy the corpse and destroy the traces, and the grass people want to sue this person!" ”
