Kung fu is good. Just when Zhou Yan was about to be unbearable, Li Ang let go of Zhou Yan at this time and did not dare to have any disrespectful thoughts towards him, but the thoughts held by Da Sima and his brother were in vain, Zhou Yan did not reflect on himself because of this, in his opinion, losing to his brother-in-law is not a shameful thing, not to mention that his brother-in-law is also recognized by the government and the opposition as the first general of Daqin, and he was praised by him for his good kung fu.

"I've seen Big Brother." Zhou Yan was direct, but his greeting was a little too close, but it made Li Ang stunned, not only Li Ang, but also Da Sima and Zhou Rui were also a little surprised, but it was the first time they saw this arrogant kid put down his body and call people big brother, and he shouted so hotly, it really made them a little confused, but Aunt Sun cast an approving look from the side, she felt that her little son was very clever, it seemed that his marriage didn't have to worry too much about her, thinking of this, Aunt Sun pulled Qingzhi and said more kindly.

After everyone sat down, during the banquet, Zhou Yan, who was already convinced of Li Ang, showed his own skills to curry favor with Li Ang, the brother-in-law who had been recognized by him. Da Sima took a moment, only to know from Aunt Sun that his young son had fallen in love with Li Ang's little sister Qingzhi, and frowned, Da Sima couldn't help but ask Aunt Sun, "When will they get better?" How I don't know. ”

"What's good or not." Aunt Sun saw that Da Sima said something ugly, so she couldn't help glaring at him before saying, "At the beginning of the year, our kid came back and met Qingzhi, so he liked it." Qingzhi still doesn't know? "Aunt Sun is still very precious to Qingzhi, her goddaughter.

"You mean. Our kid is unrequited. Looking at his young son, Da Sima pouted and said, he didn't expect that his young son, who had killed him before and refused to get married, would actually change his sex. I have a fancy for myself, but it's okay, if this family business can be formed, it can be regarded as a good thing.

For Zhou Yan's sudden flattery of himself, Li Ang felt a little abnormal, but he couldn't see it so much for a while. Just talked and laughed freely, because he suddenly remembered that those of his own horses who entered the fleet seemed to be in the West Sea Fleet, and he had to have a good relationship with the people who were in charge of the West Sea Fleet, so that his own horses could get more benefits. In this way, the two also talked happily with each other, and while talking, Zhou Yan talked about things at sea, and said that the Great Qin fleet actually controlled all the shipping lanes of this era. Even if the Romans had a strong navy, their fleet did not dare to sail out of the Inland Sea and the Mediterranean, and compete with Daqin for the golden shipping route of the Maritime Silk Road. It was divided into the Seven Sea Fleet, of which the Inland Sea Fleet was stationed in Jerusalem. There are almost sixty percent of the size of the Roman navy, and Daqin's warships have always been ahead of Rome, coupled with long-term control of the waterway, if the Roman fleet dares to go out of the Inland Sea and the Mediterranean, it is basically no different from looking for death, and in the Seven Seas Fleet, except for the Inland Sea Fleet, which is stationed in the Inland Sea, the rest of the Six Seas Fleet are all escorting Daqin's merchant fleet to the west of the Sea, in other words, although the Chamber of Commerce in Jiangnan bears more than seventy percent of the military expenses of the Great Qin Fleet every year, but what they get is the personal escort of the Great Qin Fleet, Although there are many pirates in the waterway, no one dares to provoke the Great Qin fleet, of course, those private fleets are not in the name of the major chambers of commerce in Jiangnan, and the fleets of other countries are not so lucky, they can not get the protection of the Great Qin fleet, only to face those murderous pirates.

As the deputy commander of the West Sea Fleet, Zhou Yan is actually the master of this fleet, his only boss in the fleet is over sixty years old, basically just staying in Yangzhou, and those chamber of commerce leaders strive for the maximum benefit of the annual military spending, and he takes care of the affairs at sea. In the past five years, countless pirates have died at his hands, and among the pirates, as long as the Great Qin West Sea Fleet is mentioned, the only thought of these self-proclaimed pirates is how far to run.

"Are you going to kill the pirates, too?" Listening to Zhou Yan talk about his encirclement and suppression of pirates at sea, Li Ang frowned, he still remembered that Zhou Yan had mentioned just now that the Great Qin fleet was mainly to escort them, as long as the pirates did not come to provoke them, the fleet would turn a blind eye and close one eye, and would not go to them for trouble.

"Hmm." Seeing Li Ang's inquiry, Zhou Yan replied, as if he knew Li Ang's question, he immediately explained, "In the maritime trade between our Great Qin and foreign countries, only sixty percent of the bulk trade is escorted by our fleet, and the remaining forty percent of the trade still depends on those small and medium-sized fleets, if the pirates make too much trouble, we are naturally obliged to encircle and suppress those guys, of course, in addition, if there are recruits in the fleet to report, according to the custom, we must also take them out to sea to fight pirates and practice their courage."

Here Zhou Yan said proudly to Li Ang, "This rule was thought up by Zhou Yu. ”

"If I have the chance, I really want to go to sea and see it." Listening to Zhou Yan talk about things at sea, Qing Zhi was a little interested, and suddenly said on the side. Seeing her speak, Zhou Yan's interest became higher and higher, seeing that he was so attentive to his sister, Li Ang immediately understood, no wonder this kid flattered himself, it turned out that he had taken a fancy to his sister, but Li Ang didn't say anything, just after gossiping for a while, he got up with Da Sima and the chief to see the excitement of Qixi Festival.

Seeing that there was no one's chance, Li Ang walked to his sister's side, looked at Zhou Yan, who was looking at him not far away, and asked in a low voice, "Qingzhi, tell my brother, what do you think of him?" He could see that Zhou Zhi was interested in Qingzhi, and Qingzhi had reached the age of being able to marry, and in the past few months, many families had expressed to him that they wanted to marry him, but he didn't want Qingzhi to be unhappy for the rest of his life because of marriage, he cared more about Qingzhi's own intentions.

—

"Yes, it's a nice person." Qing Zhi was a little strange about Li Ang's question, at the beginning of the year, she knew Zhou Yan, and felt that this somewhat swarthy young man was somewhat similar to her brother, and she had a good feeling in her heart.

"Nothing." Li Ang smiled, and then beckoned to Zhou Yan, "Zizong, come over for a moment." His words fell, and Zhou Yan had already run over, still a little apprehensive in his heart, "Big brother, what's the matter?" Looking at his strong brother-in-law, he was a little nervous.

"Later, you will accompany Qingzhi to see the excitement." Li Ang looked at Zhou Yan, who was a little uneasy, hugged his shoulder, then put his head to his ear, and said in a low voice, "I'm just such a sister, so I won't give her to others casually, if you want me to approve, you have to make Qingzhi satisfied with you first, then I will consider it!" ”

"Big brother, don't worry, I won't let Qingzhi down." Listening to Li Ang's words, Zhou Yan's heart relaxed, for him, Li Ang said this to him, which was tantamount to hinting to him that the next thing would depend on him to work hard.

"That kid is going to trouble you in the future." After Zhou Yan left, Da Sima walked to Li Ang's side, "I, as a father, have seen him bow to people for the first time, so I think he is serious about Qingzhi, you have to give him a chance." ”

Seeing Da Sima say this, Li Ang couldn't help but secretly say in his heart, 'The hearts of parents in the world are always the same!' He nodded, "I'll give him the opportunity, but it's up to him whether he can grasp it or not." ”

"I understand this." Da Sima didn't say much, he knew what kind of person Li Ang was, he would never care about the benefits of marriage, as long as Qing Zhi was unwilling, even if the emperor wanted to marry this family business, I'm afraid he wouldn't agree, but Da Sima was not worried, he still had a little confidence in his son, after all, he married Aunt Sun, who was the envy of all the children of the Chang'an family.

Da Sima and Aunt Sun took Zhou Rui to say goodbye first, for them, such a lively Qixi Festival is not suitable for them, similarly, the chief and Guo Nu also resigned, the reason for the chief is the same as Da Sima, and Guo Nu is the same as Zhou Rui, the affairs of the military hall keep them busy, but the chief is to keep his granddaughter.

"Xianghua is my uncle's heart, you know." Before leaving, Guo Nu and Li Ang said, "Cunxiao is a good child, my uncle and I like him very much, you have to pay more attention to this matter." After saying that, he patted Li Ang on the shoulder and left.

"Cun Xiao, give me the scene." Li Ang turned his head to look at Li Cunxiao, who was holding his son, took the eldest son from his hand and said, "You go to accompany Xianghua." ”

"Father-in-law, I, this?" Li Cunxiao was stunned, he didn't expect Li Ang to let him accompany the chief's granddaughter, although he also liked the eldest lady who didn't have a temper, but in his heart, he still regarded Li Ang's family as his most important.

"You're not too young, it's time to marry a daughter-in-law." Li Ang looked at the honest righteous son in front of him, and said in a deep voice, "Xianghua is a good girl, you can't fail him, if you dare to fail him, your father-in-law will expel you from the house." For Li Cunxiao, Li Ang can only use this kind of intimidation-like order to make him accept it, otherwise, with his emotional dullness, he doesn't have to expect him to take care of his family affairs when he dies of old age.

"Yes, father-in-law." When Li Cunxiao heard the words "expulsion from the house", he couldn't help but shudder, and hurriedly answered loudly, and then ran to the front quickly, and saw that Li Ang shook his head, this kid is really not worry-free!
