Aimlessly, Chu Li walked back to the Rouge Building. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info It's fate.

Fate? Chu Li didn't believe it himself. This is clearly the old pervert under the Nine Springs who lured him over. What's the use of asking for so much silver for a man? If you don't go to the Qinglou to be chic, do you want to keep the porridge shed?

With a snap, a hand slapped on Chu Li's shoulder, which scared Chu Li.

"Is that you?" Chu Li turned around and found that it was the white-faced young student who was dressed as an officer and soldier in Duan Mansion just now, and at this time he had already changed into a blue-blue Cheng Ziyi, and there was an extra folding fan in his hand.

"Do we know each other?" It's still those two sentences, but the role has been changed.

"I thought you knew me!"

"If I knew you, the girl in the rouge building would know you!"

"I don't know what Brother Tai is called!" Chu Li's face flushed, and he hurriedly diverted the topic.

"Under Tang Mu!" The white-faced Xiaosheng hugged his fists, and Chu Li was suddenly taken aback.

Is he Tang Mu?

Who is Tang Mu?

Jianghu people call the two holy sons, the grandson of Tang Yun, a great genius in Jiangnan, and his surname is Tang Mu. The so-called two saints, refers to the saint of calligraphy and the saint of painting, according to legend, this Tang Mu calligraphy can be less than the former dynasty calligraphy saint Wang Yi, the painting work is not inferior to the former painting saint Wu Daoxuan, in terms of talent is not inferior to the ancestor Tang Yun, and even said that it is more than that. For this Tang Mu, the rumors on the rivers and lakes can be described as mixed, but in the mouth of the master, this person is a rare genius in the world, and the reason may be because this Tang Mu's hobbies are the same as that of the old pervert.

"Dare to ask my brother's name!" Tang Mu clenched his fists.

"In Xia Chuli!"

"Brother Chu, can you enjoy the light?"

"Brother Tang is polite!"

The Chen Family Wine House is a tavern located in the depths of the alley, the tavern is divided into two floors, the upper and lower rooms are scattered. The wine and food here, both in taste and appearance, are many times stronger than the Xianwei Building, which specializes in pig food.

"Dare to ask Brother Chu, but is Lord Duan's old friend?" Tang Mu helped Chu Li pour a full glass of wine, and the first question was straight to the point.

"I don't know anyone from Duanfu."

"Oh? Then why did you save the child? ”

"Even if the father is guilty, what does it have to do with the child? Could it be that Brother Tang, you, are you a friend of Lord Duan? ”

"Definitely. Like you, I don't know him. ”

"Could it be that the adult, is that adult really a wronged Qing official?" At this moment, Chu Li suddenly remembered the doll's words: "My father is a Qing official, you can't kill me." ”

In Chu Li's impression, from ancient times to the present, whenever a loyal minister is in trouble, a righteous hero will always jump out halfway to help him, maybe this Tang Mu is the same as himself, and he is also uneven?

"Yes. Duan Guangli is well-known for his incorruptibility in the court. ”

"Brother Tang's righteous deeds, I admire them!" Chu Li picked up the wine glass and subconsciously sighed, "Alas! Corrupt officials are rampant, and loyal ministers are suffering! What kind of world is this? ”

"Who do you say is a loyal servant?"

"Of course it's that Lord Duan!" Chu Li thought he had heard it wrong, "This is what you said, Brother Tang!" ”

"I only said that he was a Qing official." Tang Mu smiled, "Loyal ministers and Qing officials, Brother Chu, you have to distinguish between them!" ”

"Listen to the teachings!"

"Brother Chu has heard of the Dragon Tiger Ship?"

Chu Li shook his head.

"The Dragon and Tiger Ship is a giant ship built by the imperial court at the cost of millions of taels of silver, but unfortunately, it was robbed by pirates not long ago!"

"Pirates?" Inexplicably, Chu Li remembered the four mysterious Guangnan people again.

A year ago, two 22-door dragon and tiger giant ships of the South China Sea Naval Division, which had just been launched, disappeared during a visit to the South Seas, and everyone thought that these two ships had encountered a rare storm, because this ship was more than 47 zhang long, 17 feet wide, nine masts and 12 sails, the anchor weighed 2,100 catties, each side was equipped with 22 divine fire iron cannons, each ship had 150 sailors, 400 sailors, and 70 miscellaneous craftsmen.

The reason why it is called the Dragon and Tiger Ship is not only related to the ship, but also related to the naval combat tactics newly invented by the sailors. Dragon and Tiger ships are in pairs when they go into battle, each ship is equipped with a thousand pounds of iron head ramming angles, if the enemy ship encounters, the two ships will be caught in the enemy ship, a blow can produce double the damage effect on the enemy ship, and can make the enemy ship on both sides of the enemy left and right to care; It is also possible for two ships to ram the enemy ship from the flanks at the same time, and both sides are injured at the same time, which is a taboo in naval warfare.

The designer of this ship is the shipbuilding master Yang Hongdian, and the inventor of this tactic is Yang Hongdian's younger brother, Yang Hongge, the governor of the South China Sea Naval Division. It can be said that fighting tigers is brothers.

Four months later, a Nanyang merchant ship that had been robbed of a grain of rice ran aground off the coast of the Southern Central Plains, and the fishermen rescued a few Nanyang merchants from the ship, who were so thin that they were only skinned and bones.

A few days later, the merchants went to the Yamen to beat drums and complain, claiming that they had been robbed by pirates, and the entire shipload of cloth and 15,000 taels of silver from the Central Plains were looted.

This kind of paper is received by the coastal yamen every year. The officials in the yamen had long been numb to these Nanyang profiteers who were better at Chinese than themselves, but the confessions of these merchants made the old man, who had never been shaken, almost slip from his chair to under the table. According to the description of the merchants, the pirate ship that hijacked them was the Dragon and Tiger Ship that disappeared inexplicably not long ago.

A six-hundred-mile urgent document containing the confessions of the merchants was sent to the capital from the coast, and then Long Yan was furious.

The Dragon and Tiger ship was sent to the South Seas to promote the prestige of our country, but it was robbed by pirates, and the shame was simply thrown overseas.

After that, the imperial court received no less than ten such confessions from the coast of the South and Central Plains, and the fact that the sailors plundered the pirates by the giant ships was confirmed.

The ancients, the wrath of the Son of Heaven, ambushed millions of corpses, thousands of miles of red land. If the emperor is angry, there must be a place to vent, among them, the Yang family brothers, who have a direct relationship with the giant ship, have become a punching bag: Yang Hongdian, the eldest brother of the designer of the giant ship, has an army of 3,000 miles; The younger brother Yang Hongge was dismissed, went to Hainingbo to be titled, and handed over to the Criminal Department for trial of his dereliction of duty, and as a result, Yang Hongge was found to have embezzled more than 300,000 taels of silver and beheaded, his family property was confiscated, and his family was charged 3,500 miles.

In this way, things get bigger.

What is the concept of 300,000 taels of silver? The daily expenses of the entire harem for a year are only 100,000 taels. The prefect of the four grades does not eat or drink, and he has to save for a thousand years on his own.

"Could it be that Duan Fu has been implicated?"

"Exactly! The saint is convinced that it is impossible for a mere governor of the navy to embezzle so much silver and still hide from the world, and there must be his henchmen in the court to cover up his crimes! ”

"That henchman, is Duan Guangli?"

"No, there are no henchmen."

"What does Brother Tang mean?"

"It's only 300,000 taels, where can I use the henchmen?" Tang Mu smiled, "But the saint said that there is, that is, there is!" There is more than one person in the court who is looking forward to Duan Guangli's head! How can you miss this opportunity? ”

"Is it not incorruptible, so hated?" Hearing this, Chu Li was also stunned.

If there are corrupt officials on the left and right, it is normal for Qing officials to be excluded, but because people are not corrupt, they kill their entire family, which is a bit too vicious.

"Wrong! The reason he was hated was because he had an account book! ”

"Ledger? What ledger? ”

"If 300,000 taels of silver is enough to cut off the head and rob the family, his account book will be enough to raze half of the nine clans of the imperial court!" Tang Mu's expression suddenly became mysterious.

Chu Li didn't speak, but the clothes all over his body were suddenly sweaty. It seems that he was inadvertently involved in a big turmoil that was 10,000 times more troublesome than the big man yesterday.

"Somebody dreams of destroying that account, and somebody dreams of getting it. And these two kinds of people want Duan Guangli's life! ”

"What kind of person are you?" Chu Li looked at Tang Mu coldly, and suddenly felt that this person was definitely not as simple as he thought.

"I'm the one who doesn't want to see you die."

"What does this have to do with me? I'm just taking that kid out of town! ”

"Kid?" Tang Mu smiled, "That's the account book!" ”
