Zhou Xuan got on the big ship, there were ten Fenghua soldiers, as well as Lin Ji and his ten Jin Wuwei to accompany him, and the commander of the more than 100 Qingyuan naval warships escorted by two of the five Qingyuan warriors who were the first to surrender to Zhou Xuan, Chen Kai appointed them as the Zhengqipin Yun cavalry captain, and after the Qingyuan was pacified, he would ask His Majesty the Emperor to raise the reward.

The mighty fleet sailed through the Yizhou Sea, through Zhangzhou to Chaozhou, without encountering any obstruction from the Zhongtian Eight Kingdoms Naval Army, Zhang Sheng must not know that his national teacher died in the thatched pit of the field shop outside Fuzhou City, and he was still waiting for Seng Jingquan to capture the beautiful Tang princess Hao Dongfang Flower Candle, right?

Now that Qingyuan has been destroyed, how can Wu Yue dare to send troops to the Tang State? Chen Kai and Zhou Xuan discussed, when the land of Fujian is stable, the people's hearts are attached, and the navy is skillful, they will play Li Yu and attack Wu Yue from both sides of the sea 6.

As for the Southern Han Dynasty, there are Zhang Sheng's Zhongtian Eight Kingdoms contained, there is no threat to the Tang State, this kind of absurd country will be in chaos sooner or later, when the Tang State's benevolent and righteous army goes south, can the people not eat pot pulp and welcome it? Zhou Xuan went to the Southern Han Dynasty this time, mainly to fight insects, and to observe the situation of the Southern Han government and the opposition by the way.

Zhou Xuan stood on the bow tower, looking at the vast sea and sky, and thought proudly: "In the past, Zhuge Liang was right, and he set the policy of the Three Kingdoms, and my Zhou Qicha was not bad, by the way, is my credit too great?" Wow, buddy will have to keep a low profile in the future. ”

Sailing on the sea, the scenery is magnificent, but it is boring to watch for a long time, without the princess on the side, dancing the Viennese waltz, painting sexy portraits, the journey is much more lonely, fortunately, there are four idiots, two games of chess a day. Always pay attention to the "Snow Lion King" and discuss what level of fierce insects you will encounter, but you are also at ease.

The "Snow Lion King" is carefully recuperated by the four idiots. The size has grown a lot, and the snow-white body of the insect is like carved from ice and snow, and if you look closely, there is a faint cyan in the white.

Zhou Xuan said: "The Snow Lion King is taller, but compared with the adult greenback insect, it is still small, and the weight difference between the insect body when fighting insects is very fatal, generally speaking." A strong cricket is always stronger than a small cricket, just like an adult beating a child, not equal. Encountering a fierce insect above the powerful lieutenant general still makes me worry. ”

In later generations, crickets had to be accurately weighed on electronic scales in advance. The gap is measured in milligrams, similar to the grading system of boxing. But in this era, it is obviously not so delicate, but insect friends know that a big weight cricket is more powerful than a light cricket, so it is a big cricket that plays.

The four idiots said: "Master, don't look at the Snow Lion King, who is not big, but his weight is not light, that is to say, the Snow Lion King is strong, and the meat is stealing." ”

Hearing the four idiots say this, Zhou Xuan couldn't help but look at her chest. It's also strong and sturdy. It is quite incommensurate with the overall thinness of the four idiots.

The four idiots noticed Zhou Xuan's gaze, glared and said, "Where are you looking!" ”

Zhou Xuan saw that there were no outsiders. He laughed in a low voice: "Last time, Cumin said enviously that Mr. Fourth didn't show his flesh, he was actually very strong and sturdy - you said that there was nothing to envy, it was all practiced." ”

The four idiots blushed, "hummed", and went down to the cabin with the black clay pot.

The huge fleet sailed day and night, arrived at the coast of Dongguan County in the Southern Han Dynasty in the early morning of the fifth day of the ninth month, there were already naval ships in the Southern Han Dynasty to intercept them, seeing that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince returned, the naval officers and soldiers were very surprised, the welcoming fleet was three 30 zhang long giant ships when it came out of the port of Xingwangfu, how did they come back and all became small sea ships? Listening to Fei Zhonglang say that he encountered the sea god wind, two of the three big ships sank, the "Lingfei" was also seriously damaged, and more than 1,000 people were buried at the bottom of the sea, and the inner master Gong Chengshu was also killed, and there were no bones.

The officers and men of the Southern Han Navy were all shocked when they heard this.

The snow pig prince is a wide heart and fat body, and he often smiles, and the trip is really an unexpected joy to harvest the pig, the fat and white and sturdy pig is much more beautiful than the princess of the Tang Kingdom who seems to have stepped on stilts, and Zhou Keguan, Zhou Keguan is very strong, the command is determined, got rid of the monk Jingquan, and also won Quanzhou, which really makes the snow pig prince admire, and work hard to add food, and the heart is like a deer!

Chen Yanshou and Fei Qing are both preoccupied and taciturn, and the vacancy of the inner master makes the two of them red-eyed and hot, planning how to win the favor of Liu Jixing and Lu Qiongxian and become this extremely powerful inner master.

The 100 escort warships were moored on the coast of Dongguan to wait for Zhou Xuan's return, and the Snow Pig Prince ordered the Han navy to be hospitalized, and all supplies should be provided by the Han State.

Zhou Xuan and the Snow Pig Prince took the sea boat to the Southern Han Dynasty Navy under the pilot, from the Panyu coast into the river, tracing the river to Xingwangfu, the Snow Pig Prince was anxious to participate in the Five Kingdoms insect war, mobilized a large number of people to pull fiber, and arrived at the Xingwangfu cross-river wharf on the afternoon of the sixth day of September.

On the wharf, the black pressure and red Tongtong, are the ministers of the Han Kingdom who came to greet the Snow Pig Prince, all of them are red and black, the front rows are under the chin, the voice is sharp, these ministers have higher positions, so they have to be castrated, most of the ministers in the back are not castrated, but there are also many castrated in order to seek a high position, these castrated little bureaucrats, not only are they not inferior in front of their colleagues, but they have a faint psychological advantage, castrated is like a stepping stone to a high position, and the soaring is unlimited, So colleagues have to take it easy, don't offend this eunuch.

In a word, in the Han Kingdom, the status of eunuchs was very high.

The snow pig prince was surrounded by hundreds of officials, Zhou Xuan was accompanied by the Han Hongluqing to the pavilion to rest, waiting for the Han Emperor to summon him, originally in order to welcome the arrival of Princess Qingle, especially built Ganquan Palace on the side of Yuexiu Mountain, in order to prepare for Princess Qingle to live temporarily before her wedding, and now Princess Qingle stayed in Quanzhou to recuperate, only came to a two-handed wedding envoy, no dowry or anything, of course, there is no such good treatment, just live in the pavilion.

The embassy post is in the west of the city, Zhou Xuan, four idiots, cumin, Lihu with the golden retriever Lulu, and ten Jinwuwei and ten Fenghua soldiers led by Lin Ji, the general of Zuo Jinwu, a total of only twenty-five people stayed, which is shabby for a wedding envoy who holds the festival, but for Zhou Xuan, he is not sending the princess to the marriage, he is here to fight insects, what do you want to do so pompously!

After eating and bathing. The four idiots said to Zhou Xuan: "Master, I don't know if the third brother and third sister-in-law have arrived?" Said that it was good to meet at the Hanzhu Pavilion on the side of Hualin Garden in Fanfang, west of the city, and I just asked Yicheng. Hualin Garden is not far from here, only four miles away, why don't you go and see it now? ”

Zhou Xuan said: "That's good. "Changed into civilian clothes, took a light robe slowly, took a folding fan, brought the four idiots, Lin Ji and Lihu, and the golden retriever Lulu, and went out of the gate of the pavilion. Go west.

Guangzhou is also known as Panyu, Liu Jixing IV ancestor called the emperor the capital of Panyu, Panyu was renamed Xingwangfu. Xingwangfu was the largest port in the world at that time, with thousands of merchants gathering and ships weaving, and it was a very rich place. But now the local market is quite depressed, and Liu Jixing is extravagant. The excesses and miscellaneous taxes overwhelmed the people, and the Eight Kingdoms of Zhongtian started from this.

Fanfang is the Hu people's settlement area, the black-clothed cannibals, Tianzhu people, Ceylonese people, Japanese people, Silla people...... Nestorians, Jackets, Shamans, and Manichaeans are dressed in strange costumes and have very different customs.

These foreigners are very different from the foreigners of later generations, Zhou Xuan also looked at it strangely, looked at it while walking, passed the Fanfang, and walked on a road where kapok and thorn trees were planted on both sides. Outside a garden. The gate of the garden is guarded by sergeants, but it turns out that the garden here has been turned into an imperial garden. The forest is being built inside, and idle people are not allowed to enter.

There is money to make the ghost grind, stuffed a few taels of silver, Zhou Xuan and others Shi Shiran went in, but after turning around, I didn't see a place called Hanzhu Pavilion, and asked about the craftsmen inside, but said that Hanzhu Pavilion had been demolished a month ago, look at the old site, dig a big pit, I don't know what to build!

Zhou Xuan and the four idiots looked at each other.

The four idiots carefully inspected the old site of Hanzhu Pavilion, and there was no secret mark left by the three idiots, and the three idiots and Lin Ning should not have arrived yet.

Zhou Xuan said: "The third couple left Jinling on the tenth day of the first month of last month, why haven't they arrived yet?" Could it be that you are in trouble in Hangzhou? ”

The four idiots said: "There is Mr. Lin Kui in Hangzhou, what trouble can there be!" ”

Zhou Xuan said: "Could it be that Mr. Lin Kui refuses to come?" Even if Mr. Lin Kui doesn't come, the third couple should have arrived. ”

The four idiots said: "Mr. Lin Kui swore not to take half a step out of the West Lake, and the master can lure him out with the words of Wu Shanqing and Yue Shanqing?" What exactly does that word mean? ”

Zhou Xuanxiao asked: "Did the fourth child hear that Mr. Lin Kui was infatuated with a woman when he was young?" ”

The four idiots blurted out: "How can I not know this, Mr. Lin Kui's idiocy is an idiot." "After saying that, I felt that it was too much to talk.

Zhou Xuan was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized, glanced at Lin Ji not far behind him, and said in a low voice: "It turns out that Mr. Lin Kui is an idiot!" ”

The four idiots were silent.

Zhou Xuan smiled and said: "Mr. Lin Kui, the plum wife and crane, turned out to be a famous idiot, and he assassinated Zhao Kuangyin's idiot, amazing!" ”

The four idiots twisted their eyebrows and said, "Master don't say much, don't mention this matter again." ”

Zhou Xuandao: "I want to ask, who is the woman that Mr. Lin is obsessed with?" ”

The four idiots said: "What is the master asking these for!" ”

Zhou Xuan said: "I just think it's strange, with Mr. Lin Kui's ability, what in the world can stop him from marrying that woman?" Judging from the words of "Sauvignon Blanc", what kind of parting love, tears of king, and tears of concubines should be the two lovers who have no choice but to break up, and it is not a contract between life and death, so what is the reason? Do you know the fourth? I'll ask three questions in exchange for this secret. ”

The four idiots said: "Add another copy of "The Secret Spectrum of the King of Insects". ”

"Ahh Zhou Xuan said: "Fourth, you are really a lion with a big mouth - okay, anyway, my land is yours, my thirty-six peerless Zhenlong questions have been almost set by you, in addition to these three questions, there is only the last question at the bottom of the box, that question, hehe, don't say it, I will record it for you when I have time." ”

The four idiots said with a smug face: "Okay, don't regret it - who is Mr. Lin Kui obsessed with?" Actually, I don't know, after all, I was still young at the time, and the third brother should know, but he didn't say it, I listened to what the fifth brother said-

Zhou Xuan said: "This is strange, the fifth child is younger than you, how can he know?" ”

The fourth idiot smiled: "So, the fifth may be nonsense." ”

Zhou Xuanqing looked at the sky and showed a large number of whites of his eyes: "Okay, even if I lose my blood, I will exchange three rare and exquisite bureaus and a cricket treasure book for a few words of nonsense, let's say - the four idiots walked under a kapok tree, a little far away from the Lin halberd, and then said: "The fifth brother said that Mr. Lin Kui is in love with a singer surnamed Fei, who is said to be beautiful, can write poetry and words, and is a native of Qingcheng in Shudi." ”

Zhou Xuankai used his brain to think, what kind of beauties are there in this Shu Kingdom? I only know that there is a Mrs. Hua Rui who is very beautiful, and Xiao Zhou Hou is the same name, but it seems that her surname is Xu, not Fei, and she is the concubine of Meng Changdi, the lord of Shu.

The sunset melts gold, the sunset is like fire, and the light and shadow in Hualin Garden are uneven.

The four idiots said: "Master, let's go back to the pavilion, if the third brother arrives, they will go to the pavilion to find us." ”

The four people and one dog walked back slowly, and when they passed Fanfang, and there was still more than a mile away from the Wanguo Pavilion Station, they suddenly saw a team of soaps stopping pedestrians to collect taxes, saying that they were night tour taxes, and each person paid a penny.

Zhou Xuan thought it was fun, this tax was fresh, and he had to pay taxes for night tours, so the four idiots paid three pennies.

A soap subordinate pointed to the tiger leading the golden retriever Lulu: "This dog also has to pay taxes, and then pay a penny." ”

Zhou Xuanqi said: "It's just that people pay taxes, why do they even have to pay taxes for dogs?" ”

The soap said: "It's okay if you don't pay taxes, it's a wild dog, take it to slaughter and have a full meal." ”

Lihu was furious, shaking his arms and about to do it.

Zhou Xuan said with a smile: "Follow the customs, follow the customs, fourth, pay the money." Several soap officers collected a penny from the pedestrians one by one and walked away.

Zhou Xuan said: "Very good, even dogs have to pay taxes, why worry about the country is not rich!" ”

A middle-aged man who looked like a craftsman on the side sighed: "This night tour tax only came out today, haven't you heard of it in the past?" ”

Zhou Xuan asked: "Could it be that these soaps are collecting taxes indiscriminately?" ”

The middle-aged craftsman said: "That's not daring, there are a lot of eyes and ears in the palace, the little officials don't dare to collect taxes indiscriminately, it is His Majesty the Emperor who likes to set up a new tax, and there is a new tax every three or five days, a few days ago a tax was set up in and out of the city, all in and out of the city gate, you have to pay a penny, these days the number of people in and out of the city has plummeted, there are really important things to go in and out, His Majesty the Emperor saw that this tax is not fresh, so he came to this night tour tax again, I am afraid that in a few days there will be a talking tax, a penny a day, unless you cut your tongue and don't speak-

Suddenly there was a loud roar, and a whip slammed into the middle-aged craftsman's face, and the skin and flesh suddenly opened, and blood splattered everywhere.

The middle-aged craftsman was drawn to a stumbling and wailing.
