Chapter 155: The Sports Day (2) - Return
The East Gate, where the sun first rises, symbolizes the authority of the Son of Heaven. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 Therefore, the East Gate is also the tallest and most domineering of the four gates.
But at the moment, the East City Gate does not show the slightest majestic and domineering appearance. The walls are full of potholes of varying depths, as if they have been splashed with sulfur and acid. The two bronze doors were also densely filled with holes, like leaky sieves.
The whole thing looks like it's going to collapse at any moment.
Outside the city gate, a group of Xishan Dynasty officials tied with straw ropes, presented wooden boxes, kneeling and begging. They used the heads of the Ruan clan to make a name for themselves, begging for a way out.
You must know that these people are all loyal ministers of the Xishan Dynasty. But at the moment of crisis, his true nature was exposed. The killer surrendered, wagged his tail and begged for his life.
Such a villain's face makes Liu Weiguo very ashamed.
But what they did was extremely beneficial to the Ming Dynasty. It not only reduced the casualties of the soldiers, but also prevented people from rebelling under the influence of the Nguyen clan. So Liu Weiguo still accepted their surrender.
However, ninety percent of each person's family property must be taken out as money to buy a life. And people also have to follow the Ming Dynasty and move to Nanyang. At present, Daming has no good arrangements for them, so he has to take them away.
As for the wooden boxes containing human heads, they were thrown into the fire pit by Liu Weiguo and burned. After all, the Ming Dynasty is a country established by modern people and has the most basic civilized ethics. Like the practice of counting military merits by head, it was abandoned by the Ming Dynasty at the beginning.
At this point, the Vietnam War was declared to be over.
So more than 10,000 mercenaries were transformed into porters. Together with the recruited Vietnamese people, the city of Hue was emptied. Especially in the inner city, because it is the place where the emperor lived, there are many valuable things. Tens of thousands of people moved together for five days in a row. From the ivory chopsticks used for eating, to the mahogany furniture used for furnishings, they were all swept away by the Ming Dynasty. Only the empty shelves and the old, weak, sick and disabled who would die on the boat were left.
Hue City has become a completely empty city.
At the same time, Liu Weiguo sent some soldiers to the north to meet the Miao people who went south. Then, as an outsider, he watched the war situation in Vietnam. If there are no accidents, Nguyen Phuc Anh will be able to pacify the entire territory of Vietnam by the end of the year at the latest.
When everything is almost done, Da Ming will pick Ruan Fuying's peaches again. Pushed Nguyen Phuc Dang to the top and indirectly controlled Vietnam.
Then, Vietnam's strategy will be completed.
When a merchant ship laden with immigrants and gold and silver treasures left the port of Hue and headed for the South Seas. Daming proper, the capital of Mingjing City, Hope District.
A steam-iron ship slowly approached the dock with thick black smoke and a shrill whistle. On the hull of the ship, there are also two large characters engraved 'Governor'.
This is the steamboat that Nanfeng specially modified for him in the shipyard of Daming when he went to Nanyang. Originally, it was a 'Mingdezu' class ship, but for his safety, it was converted into a private steamboat.
It was named 'Governor'.
At this time, on the deck, two little hairy children, a man and a woman, were running giggling.
"Come on! Come after me! Nam Hee smiled at the little boy behind him as he ran.
It was a dark-skinned boy about the same age as Nam Hee. But the body size is fatter than Nanxi. So when I run, I'm always out of breath. Suddenly, one didn't pay attention and fell.
"Babble! Little guts, are you alright? Seeing that the little boy had fallen, Nanxi hurriedly ran over and asked with concern.
But before he could think about it, the little boy suddenly grabbed Nanxi's little hand, and said with a smile: "I caught you!" ”。
It turned out to be a trick!
"Let go! Let go! Hum! You're cheating! Nam Hee shook the boy's hand vigorously. But her strength was too small to break it at all.
The boy stared at the porcelain doll-like Nam Hee, rolled his eyes, and made a condition.
"As long as you call me Xiao Ruan in the future, don't call me Xiao Guts, I will let you go.". He knew that being cowardly was about the same as being timid, and as a boy, he was extremely reluctant to accept it.
But his real name is Nguyen Phuc Dan. Nan Xi took care of himself and gave him this nickname.
"Alright! Xiao Ruan", Nan Xi saw this, and his tone softened. But as soon as Nguyen Phuc Dang let go of his hand, Nam Hee stuck out his tongue at him, grimaced, and shouted, "Little guts! ”。
As soon as he finished speaking, he ran away.
This scene happened to be seen by Zhang Yang, who went up to the deck. After the Nanyang policy was decided, he took Nanfeng's letter and set off back to Daming. I am going to try to persuade the ministers to pass this proposal at the Cabinet meeting.
Of course, he also knew that this errand was not an easy task. So along the way, I was always depressed and worried. At this time, looking at Nanxi and Ruan Phuc's timid and unsuspecting appearances, he was instantly infected by this innocence. My heart also brightened.
In the cabinet, the biggest resistance should be Mu Chun. He is the most anti-war, so he is the most difficult to deal with. In that case, we have to deal with the other ministers first. However, it would be best if the president could support him. He used to follow Yang Chong as a co-pilot and knew Yang Chong's personality. Although he is very easy to speak, he also has his own principles and opinions. In many things, he has his own ideas, and he is not a person who can easily say and move.
Thinking of this, the worries that had just been suppressed rushed out again.
At this time, a soft female voice suddenly sounded in my ears. Just listened: "Director Zhang, it's all back to Daming, why are you still sad?" ”。
As soon as Wang Yanran's figure turned, she jumped in front of Zhang Yang.
With the opening of the Games imminent, the host of the event is also in demand. But there are very few hosts in Daming. Although a group of people have been trained, the time is too short to host such a big event.
So Wang Yanran was invited back by her best friend Sister Fuliu.
Although in modern times, sports meetings are a very common thing. But in the eighteenth century, it was extremely rare. In addition, Nanfeng is busy with official business, so he has little time to accompany them. Wang Yanran agreed to come down and went back to Daming to help. also let Nanxi open his eyes and see for a long time.
"Nothing! Just looking at Xiaoxi and Ruan Fudan's child, I remembered my childhood! Zhang Yang looked at the dock that was getting closer and closer, and explained casually.
His words are right, this Ruan Fudan and Nanxi can really play. made Zhang Xiao and the others all joke, guessing whether Nanfeng would marry Ruan Fuying as a son and daughter.
This gust of wind somehow blew into Ruan Fuying's ears. So much so that he also wrote a special letter, secretly admonishing the nurse who took care of Ruan Phuc Dang, so that his son could have more contact with Nan Xi. And sent a bunch of gifts to Nanfeng, asking about the cigarette family?
As a result, the gift was accepted by Nanfeng. But the proposal was directly ignored.
In any case, Nan Feng would not make a private decision for Nan Xi for life. After all, the relationship between two children is playmates, how can it rise to marriage? As a mother, Wang Yanran is also very opposed to this proposal.
But Ruan Fudan, this kid, remembered his father's words. It's like Nam-hee's heel, fart, and worm, wherever he goes. Now they have returned to Daming together.
