Gao Ming's waist card has two, a prince fish charm, which represents the identity of Gao Ming's prince, and he naturally can't give this waist card to Liu Bing.

The other token is a gold-plated token with "riding" written on one side, which represents his identity as the commander of the thousand cavalry guards, and the token that Gao Ming gave to Liu Bing is this one!

Liu Bing naturally knew this token, so when Gao Ming stuffed the token into his, he was stunned.

"This ...... It's ......"

Seeing Liu Bing's shocked and puzzled look, Gao Ming immediately laughed.

"Don't be surprised, this token is the token of the commander of the Thousand Cavalry Guard!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Liu Bing suddenly felt even more strange, and he hurriedly arched towards Gao Ming.

"Your Royal Highness the Prince, why did you give this token to the old slave?"

Looking at Liu Bing's puzzled look, Gao Ming immediately raised his eyebrows at him.

"If I don't give you this token, how can you drive the Dingyuan away?"

Dingyuan is the name that Gao Ming gave to the steamship.

After returning from Goguryeo, Gao Ming had the word "Dingyuan" painted on this ship, which means that as long as there is this ship, no matter how far away the enemy is, he can take it to pacify.

The importance of Dingyuan to Gao Ming, and even to the entire Tang Dynasty, is very clear in the hearts of the Manchu Dynasty.

Of course, Liu Bing also knew, so when he heard that Gao Ming planned to give him the Dingyuan, he fell into shock again.

"Uh...... His Royal Highness the Prince, this must not be, this is the ...... of Dingyuan"

"Okay, you don't have to say more!"

Seeing that Liu Bing was about to refuse again, Gao Ming immediately swung towards him and interrupted him.

"I've already said before, everything I gave you is not for you, but for the smooth finding of corn, with this steamship, it must be much smoother!"

Gao Ming's delivery of the steamship to Liu Bing was deliberate.

Datang's current national strength is not enough to equip a large fleet with steam, so the expedition fleet that followed Liu Bing to find corn this time is mainly based on sails and manpower.

Compared with these ships, the Dingyuan steamship can be called a "hanging" existence.

With a dual steam drive, it is super powerful, and it is also free from the influence of the weather, plus the ship is equipped with twenty cannons and fifty excellent guns, and the attack power is extremely powerful.

Gao Ming speculated that in this era, there should be no role at sea that can give the Yuan a tough role, so equipping the entire expedition fleet with the Dingyuan can greatly ensure the safety of the entire fleet.

Liu Bing lives in the deep palace all the year round, although he has a lot of experience in intrigue and politics, but he lacks the overall situation, so Gao Ming can only explain to him in a commanding tone.

"The Dingyuan is one of the important guarantees for the success of this expedition, and his importance is no less than that of a compass, a telescope, and bean sprouts, so you don't need to say more, and I have sent two people as your deputies."

Speaking of this, Gao Ming immediately clapped his hands twice, and suddenly, two guards in armor walked over, and then knelt down on one knee towards Gao Ming.

"The last general has seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

Looking at the two burly guards, Gao Ming immediately nodded.

"Well, get up!"

"Yes!"

After the two of them got up, Gao Ming turned his head to Liu Bing.

"Lao Liu, these two people are my henchmen, and their martial arts are super strong, they are outstanding leaders in the Thousand Cavalry Guards, this time to go to sea, the two of them are your deputies, okay, you get to know each other!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the two guards walked out with the scarred Chinese characters on their faces, and then arched towards Liu Bing.

"Gonggong Liu, my name is Shishi, and I am the commander of the thousand horsemen of the right cavalry!"

As soon as Shishi's words fell, another kanji also stepped forward.

"Gonggong Liu, I'm a crow, and I'm also the commander of the thousand horsemen of the right cavalry guard, I'm lucky!"

Hearing the words of the two, Liu Bing immediately looked at Gao Ming.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, their names ......"

Although Liu Bing's words were not finished, Gao Ming also understood what he meant, so he immediately laughed.

"I know what you think, but the names of the two of them are like this, it's not that they're hiding anything from you, you don't have to care."

Hearing Gao Ming say this, Liu Bing had no choice but to nod.

"Yes, the old slave understands!"

Seeing Liu Bing nodding, Gao Ming set his eyes on the stone and the crow.

"Stone, crow, I will hand over the Dingyuan to you, and Liu Bing's safety will also be handed over to you, don't let me down!"

Hearing Gao Ming's words, the two of them hugged their fists towards him again.

"Yes!"

The two of them only used one word to answer Gao Ming, but looking at their expressions, Gao Ming knew that this one word was enough.

He smiled again and nodded, then waved towards the two of them.

"Alright, you guys go down and prepare, and we'll set off in the next day!"

"Yes!"

The two said yes again, and then turned to leave.

After they left, Gao Ming turned around and patted Liu Bing's shoulder.

"Lao Liu, you also go down and prepare, the eunuchs of the entire palace, take everything you can take away, and if you can't take it away, give them a sum of money and let them go out of the palace to make a living."

Hearing Gao Ming's words, Liu Bing knew that the history of the eunuchs of the Tang Dynasty was coming to an end.

However, this result was also expected by him, because it was he who contributed to this result.

Therefore, as soon as Gao Ming's words fell, he immediately nodded.

"The old slave knows, and the old slave will go to do it immediately after he goes back, but there is no need to give the money, and now in Datang, it is still very simple to find a bowl of rice to eat."

"Hahahaha!"

Hearing Liu Bing's words, Gao Ming couldn't help laughing.

"I love to hear what you say, but this money still has to be given, this is their severance pay, this money will be given according to the number of years in the palace, those who have been in the palace for less than a year will be given ten dollars, and those who have been in the palace for more than one year will be given the same amount of money for each more year, and they can't be allowed to suffer this knife in vain, right? Haha......"

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is merciful, the old slave has thanked His Highness on behalf of these little cubs!"

As he spoke, Liu Bing knelt down towards Gao Ming again, and then kowtowed to him respectfully.

Seeing this scene, Gao Ming smiled and helped Liu Bing up.

"I won't use this in front of me, Lao Liu, how many eunuchs are there in the palace now?"

"Back to His Royal Highness the Prince, there are less than 4,000 people in total, and more than 1,000 of them are little cubs who have been in the palace for less than a year, Your Highness, you can take 40,000 yuan, as for the remaining hundreds of people, the old slave plans to take them with him, so there is no need to give them money."

"Hmm!"

Hearing Liu Bing's words, Gao Ming immediately nodded.

"I naturally won't give them money for the people you took away, because when you find the corn and come back, you will get far more than these dozens of dollars, believe me, even those martial officials will envy you when the time comes!"

"Hmm!"

As soon as Gao Ming's words fell, Liu Bing suddenly nodded heavily.

"The old slave believes in His Royal Highness the Prince! Always believe! ”

Looking at Liu Bing's determined expression, Gao Ming smiled again and patted him on the shoulder.

"Okay, go and prepare, I'm waiting for your good news, Four Treasures Eunuch Liu Bing!"

"Yes!"
