Chapter 66: Confusing

"Brother, who did you provoke, why did you mess with this?" Zhao Yang exclaimed in horror.

Wu Dinghou said: "This is just my speculation, not necessarily true. But nephew, you don't happen to be connected to the coastal tycoons, do you? ”

Besides, he shook his head: "No, I lived in Suzhou, and later married in Nanjing, and I have nothing to do with the coast." ”

"Then there is no reason, the emperor must be so reliant on you, you think about it, maybe some of your relatives, or, your mother's family?" Wuding Hou Dao.

"Uncle, really no, I haven't even been to the beach. But I think of one thing, but it has nothing to do with the opening of the sea ban? Besides, he scratched his head.

"What's the matter?" Wu Dinghou asked.

"That's the case, when I was about to get married, the Zheng family in Fuzhou suddenly came to stir up the situation, and took the doll marriage contract that my father-in-law had with them in the early years, and wanted to break us up. However, they were finally blown away by the Duke of Wei, and it seems that they also suffered a curse, and the three generations of the Zheng family were almost dead. ”

Besides, of course, it will not be said that the death of those people in the Zheng family is due to Xiaojun's generosity, even if it is with Wudinghou, it can only be determined that it is a curse.

"We've heard about it, my sister mentioned it in her letter to the family, and we were worried about you at the time." Zhao Yang said.

"Only these connections?" Wuding Hou Dao.

Besides, he thought about it and nodded.

"That's even more unreasonable, you must know that the plan that the emperor asked us to do this time was aimed at Yuegang, Zhangzhou, Fujian. The Zheng family was indeed greatly injured in that incident, but if you go to their territory, you will suffer their crazy revenge, not to mention 5,000 people, even 50,000 people will not be able to stand on their feet for a long time, and 5,000 people will have to be swallowed by them even if they have bones. "The more Wu Dinghou thought about it, the more wrong it became.

"That is, the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake, the Zheng family is not the head snake, even now in Fujian is still a wealthy family. If the emperor really sent you there, wouldn't he kill you by the hands of the Zheng family? Zhao Yang was even more confused.

"It won't be like that, the emperor is surrounded by capable people, and there are a thousand ways to make a person disappear silently, and there is no need to spend so much money at all. The emperor did not hesitate to spend a lot of silver, and then borrowed a knife to kill? It doesn't make sense, it doesn't make sense at all. Marquis Wuding shook his head again and again.

"That's right, in that kind of place, five thousand people are only enough to protect Brother Guo himself, and they can't stay for a long time, they can only enter and come out quickly. If the emperor wants to send someone to protect the open port, it must be nailed there like a nail. Zhao Yan was also confused.

"No wonder Zhang Juzheng and Gao Gong didn't tell you about the opening of the sea ban, they probably couldn't figure out the links here like me, so they didn't tell you." Wuding Hou Dao.

Besides, he shook his head and said: "I don't want to, anyway, if I want to go to the beach to die, I have to pass the emperor's pass first, let's solve the problem in front of me first." ”

"Also, at least going to the beach to die is a matter of the future." Zhao Yang said.

"Crow's beak." Wu Dinghou glared at his son fiercely, so frightened that Zhao Yang stuck out his tongue and stopped talking.

In a secret room deep in a mansion in the city, there was no candlelight, no daylight, and only a few voices echoed in the dark space.

"He wants five thousand? No, I won't give anyone here. An old voice said.

"Brother, the son only wants 5,000 people, but I boast about Haikou, I want 50,000 people, why don't you give me some face." Another hoarse voice said.

"Face? Is this a matter of face? He wants 5,000 today, 10,000 tomorrow, and maybe 50,000 in the end, what does he want people for? Using our people to serve the court, doesn't he know that we are mortal enemies of the court? The old voice said angrily.

"I don't want to give it either, but Childe said that if you don't give it, you will turn your face, if we are sloppy, he will turn his face, and if we mix sand, he will also turn his face, what do you say?" The hoarse voice smiled wryly.

"Turn your face and turn your face! We have protected their family for several generations, I don't know how much it has been paid, he can still say something to turn his face, such a person is not guaranteed. The old voice said.

"Not guaranteed? What if something does happen to him, don't you know the seriousness of the consequences? The hoarse voice was furious.

"If something really happens, what should we do, why do we have to get a master now? Why can't we make our own decisions? The old voice said.

"Make your own decisions? If Childe wasn't there, no one would be able to bring everyone together, and then the organization would fall apart, have you ever thought about that? ”

"I don't have to think about the result, I'd rather be a chicken head than an oxtail, and if we split up, we will be separated, and we will be strong enough after the separation, there is no reason to be afraid." The old voice said.

"Strong enough? Is it compared with the imperial court, or compared with the ancestor protector faction, or compared with the overseas royal organization? You don't want to protect the son, the overseas king's organization wants to be like this, now the old man and the princess are in their hands, if they get the son again, we all have to bow down. In addition, there are still many people in the organization who are loyal to his family, I don't believe you can investigate it yourself, why? It's not for the sake of being loyal to His Majesty Emperor Jianwen back then. ”

"Yes, if Emperor Jianwen is alive, it will be no problem for me to be loyal, but why do we have to be loyal to the Kuang family?"

"That's because His Majesty Emperor Jianwen has an edict: if he is not there, everyone must be as loyal to the people of the Kuang family as they are to him, as well as to the descendants of the Kuang family." The hoarse voice said solemnly.

"I don't care what you say, anyway, I will not leave anyone this time, if you are willing to come out, you can come out of your part of the force." The old voice snorted coldly.

Suddenly, a voice suddenly sounded in the dark room: "Those who dare to discuss the edict of His Majesty Emperor Jianwen will die, and those who dare to disobey His Majesty's edict will die." ”

"No, my lord, my subordinates are not ......" The old man's voice suddenly became young and panicked.

Then the sound stopped abruptly as if it had been cut by scissors.

"Your Excellency, are you here too?" The hoarse voice said in fear.

There was no echo in the air, and after a long time, the chamber opened, and a man came out, dragging a corpse.

In Fusi, Beizhen, Liu Shouyou still crossed his two feet and lay on his back on the Taishi chair.

"That kid didn't come today?" He asked.

"Didn't come, sir."

"I guess I begged grandpa to tell grandma, this errand is tricky." Liu Shouyou said leisurely.

The more he thought about it, the more he admired the emperor's clever calculations, of course, he knew that this was not only the emperor's idea, but also a mysterious national teacher behind the emperor, which was more important than Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng, but unfortunately he had not been able to figure out the origin of this national teacher.

Besides, when he came out of Wudinghou's house, he didn't go to the sixth guard yamen of Jinyi, but went home directly.

Now he is one step closer to the truth, he has been trying to find out the emperor's true intentions, and now it seems that it is very close, but there are still some details that need to be further confirmed.

Through the analysis of Marquis Wuding, it can be basically determined that the emperor wants to use Yuegang in Zhangzhou, Fujian Province as an open port, so Bacheng will send him to be stationed there, nailed there like a nail, and protect the Yuegang base for the imperial court.

Otherwise, why give him five naval warships?

Ships can repel pirates in order to protect the security of the harbor. Why set up a Divine Machine Battalion? In order to protect the port on the shore, only by protecting the port can overseas trade be carried out smoothly, and the silver imported from overseas can be landed and not robbed by the coastal tycoons.

As for overseas trade routes, even the Salt Gang knew that if he bought an overseas trade channel with a lot of money, the information of the imperial court would not be inferior to that of the Salt Gang, so he naturally used his influence to get a safe overseas trade channel.

If he can gain a foothold in Fujian, it will mean that the local heroes have bowed their heads, and the safe passage from Fujian to the interior will naturally be unimpeded.

He understands the difficulties of the imperial court, it is not that the Japanese can not be defeated, but they cannot be destroyed at all, as Zhao Yan said, they can go ashore to harass, retreat can go to the sea and fly far away, and then make a comeback after the officials and troops retreat. In this way, the imperial court was exhausted, and the gains outweighed the losses, so it could only give up the interests of the coast and the income from overseas trade.

The Wako are not ordinary pirates, but are armed by wealthy coastal clans, and the famous Eight Families of the Pirate Alliance are the base camp of the Wakos.

The imperial court asked him to train 5,000 people, but it was just to protect himself, and if he wanted to stay for a long time, he had to get the full support of overseas monarch organizations, and even the Qinwang faction in the interior sent a steady stream of manpower and material resources. In this way, it is not a pity to die, and living is equivalent to using all your strength to work for the court in vain, and the emperor's abacus is too shrewd.

Although it is reasonable to think like this, doesn't the emperor know that he can't mobilize these two organizations at all? Further, if he really knows his own details, how can the emperor still tolerate it? Isn't that a paradox?

All kinds of questions were stirred up in his mind, and he couldn't straighten it out, but one thing he knew was that the personnel still had to be recruited, and the sixth guard of Jinyi had to be built, otherwise, he wouldn't have to worry about Fujian's affairs.

"How's it going today?" Back at home, Xiao Nier came up and asked.

"It's still the same."

Besides, he was lying in his bedroom in the outer house, thinking about these things in the clouds. The bedroom in the inner house was occupied by the little girl, and he was not allowed to enter, so he had to rest in the outer house. Where is this, what is this, and the son, he has to live in a foreign house in his own home.

"Didn't you go to the Yamen office today?" Xiao Nier asked.

"How do you know?" Besides, I thought Xiao Nier was worried about him something.

"Because you're not that cold today, and you're yelling for wine before you come back." Xiao Nier laughed.

Oh, besides, I just remembered that I had drunk the least of today's drinks in the past few days, could it be that that ghost place really has so much weird power? One day, I have to find a feng shui gentleman to see if there is something wrong with the location of the sixth guard, but don't choose a congenitally unfavorable place to build an army.
