Chapter 284: The Qing Guys

"What is this?"

Zhao Tianyou said seriously: "Mr. Mu, you keep this painting by your side, but you can't give it to others to see, there will be a lot of people in contact with officials in Quanzhou, whether it is antiques or jade, businessmen see the most." （）

You have to ask them about such objects slowly, and after seeing the real thing or the portrait, you have to confirm where the object has fallen, and then notify me as soon as possible to complete the task. ”

When Mu Chenglin heard this, he felt that what Zhao Tianyou said seemed to have some truth, and the words of the official were indeed helpful for finding these items, but this official was a little too big and too easy.

At this time, after Jingchen Shitai finished chanting, he held a hot water for boiling tea to add water to the two people who were talking, and glanced at the picture in Mu Chenglin's hand.

"Huh?"

The turquoise blue eyes stared at the jasper ring, and his face changed, as if he thought of something terrible, the distorted muscles on his face began to tremble, and a thin bead of sweat appeared on his tender white forehead.

"Master, do you recognize this ring?"

Zhao Tianyou was overjoyed, and if he showed this expression and wanted to say that he didn't know him, it would be a pure lie, but he didn't expect that Mu Chenglin, the official, had already found a trace of something before he took office.

"This is the ring of the murderer demon king in the north, he said that this ring has magic power, and it can collect the souls of those who have been killed by him, so that he can sleep in his palace with peace of mind."

Zhao Tianyou said: "North? Who is it? ”

"The ninth king of the Capetian dynasty, who also led the army to invade and occupy our homeland, he launched wars everywhere, bullied and occupied the territory of those good peoples, killed the warriors who dared to resist him, and his subordinates called him Saint Louis."

The news was so useful that Saint-Louis, a famous king in French history, was a model among the monarchs of medieval France and all of Europe, and was nicknamed "the perfect monster". In medieval Europe, to be an exemplary monarch was to have at least the following qualifications: devout Christianity, participation in the Crusades, impartiality in the administration of justice, etc., and he had all of the above.

He did not hesitate to donate money to the Congregation and became a member of the Franciscan Order. At times, he even washed the feet of his disciples in imitation of Jesus, and personally washed the feet of the blind in the workhouse. But his piety also brought damage to France, and he strictly forbade the spread of paganism, set up burning grounds and inquisitions, treated Jews especially harshly, burned their scriptures, and forced them to wear Jewish symbols.

His devotion was also evident in his enthusiasm for the Crusades, in which he took part in the Seventh and Eighth Crusades, and his favorite thing to do was to conquer his goal, and he died of illness on the way back from his last expedition.

Zhao Tianyou had read a brief history of France in the army training, and naturally had a little impression of this perfect French king, but in the name of Louis, everyone in China knew that it was indeed Louis XIII, but it was not a king but red wine.

"Surely his ring? Have you seen it? ”

Jingchen's mood eased slightly, his hands folded in front of his chest, and he recited the Buddha's name a few times.

"Yes, this ring is true, it is the ring of Saint Louis, I once saw a portrait of him, this ring on his hand."

Zhao Tianyou nodded, and then asked, "Trouble master, haven't you seen that painting for a long time, and where did you see it?" ”

"It's been twenty and twenty years, and if that painting is kept, then it should be in the hands of that man in the capital of the Northern Yuan. It was brought back by General Guo Kan's expedition to Europe, and I was also one of the trophies brought back. ”

Guo Kannai was a legendary figure among the Han generals under Kublai Khan, who fought countless battles and defeated enemies in his life, leaving behind a record of breaking more than 180 cities along the way. It's a pity that Zhao Tianyou came late, he had already died of illness in Ninghai in 1277, and he had no chance to fight Zhao Tianyou.

This involves Jingchen's emotional entanglement, Zhao Tianyou could see that Mu Chenglin wanted to speak and stopped, so he knew that today's meeting should be over, so he immediately got up and said goodbye, and did not forget to tell Mu Chenglin before leaving.

"Mu Lao, don't forget the foreign language I taught you, you must say it to Mrs. Shi in a while."

Quanzhou's politics and business are relatively stable, after Mu Chenglin was invited out of the mountain, the holy decree of the Xinhui could not be reached for a while, so Zhao Tianyou was orally appointed by Zhao Tianyou to temporarily serve as the acting governor of Quanzhou, of course, no one will put forward any opinions.

Zhao Tianyou's arrangement like this made Wei Yue breathe a sigh of relief, after all, he was just a person, although he was knowledgeable and courageous, but he couldn't escape the shackles of fame and fortune later, if he continued to be in charge of power alone, the final outcome would definitely not be too good.

Once Mu Chenglin's official position is appointed, anyone can see that he is Zhao Tianyou's personal person, and with Zhao Tianyou's name, this position of Zhizhou can also be done steadily, and other local forces will also look up to it.

In this way, Wei can concentrate on managing the port and continue to develop and build more deep-water terminals to accommodate the tenfold increase in the number of merchant ships that Zhao Tianyou said. Let him be in charge of the city is Zhao Tianyou's greatest trust, if the government affairs of the soldiers and horses are in his charge again, he can bear it, and his subordinates will have to kill him, he doesn't want to be the second Pu Shougeng.

Zhao Tianyou's days in Quanzhou were very relaxed, and when he got the news of the ring, he felt that the trip was worthwhile, and then he took Da Fat and Sangou to walk the streets and alleys all day long, ready to eat all the food in Quanzhou and drink all the flower wine of Shili Xiangfang.

"My general, be kind! Big fat eats a lot of brains and stupid, he won't think about it, but my Sangou is a strong guy, looking at so many beauties and can't do it, the general wants to suffocate the two of us! Zhao Tianyou, who has only drunk flower wine and watched singing and dancing for two consecutive days, but never stayed overnight, was finally strongly protested by Sangou.

Zhao Tianyou patted his head and said: "Oh, if you don't say that I forgot about this, I have to tell you about the family, which girl do you like?" ”

"My lord, let's go back to Guangzhou to talk about it, the big fat is not a child, he has slept with the girls in Xiangfang. Now I'm alone, I don't know what a woman tastes like, how pitiful, general, you can go with me. ”

Zhao Tianyou felt bitter in his heart, and said in his heart, how do you know my suffering, I am a pure boy in this world.

"Okay, isn't this a trivial matter, treat you two tonight, go to the bustard to arrange it for you, have a good time!"

Sangou smiled and said: "My general, you are really a living Bodhisattva, I will ask the old bustard to arrange a young man for you, you are also happy!" ”

"Fuck off, let's play!"

Silk and bamboo musical instruments are endless, and the delicate female voice sings up and down, Zhao Tianyou sits at the table, drinking wine cup by cup.

"Squeak!" As soon as the doorshaft rang, a thin woman in white came in, and after turning around and closing the door, Xiao Xiaobu moved to Zhao Tianyou and knelt down, bowing her head and saying nothing.
