******************

Under the guidance of Tai Shi Ci, Liu Cun visited Tai Shi Ci's mother with the gift of his son and nephew, with a respectful and thoughtful expression, which made Tai Shi Ci's mother and son sincerely frightened for a while, and then saw a group of dragon spirits and fierce guards offering many gifts, and immediately stunned on the spot, wanting to be speechless.

Mrs. Taishi never dreamed that Liu Cun, who was praised by all the people, was so young, so humble and polite, until Liu Cun looked at the swaddling clothes in his daughter-in-law's arms with a smile after seeing the ceremony, and the old lady Taishi reacted, respectfully invited Liu Cun to sit down, told Liu Cun that her grandson had just turned half a year old, and then asked with interest: "I heard that the envoy was happy with Lin'er in March last year?" ”

Liu Cun smiled embarrassedly at the moment: "It's been almost ten months, before the little nephew left home, the little guy just grew two front teeth, and I wanted to reach into his little mouth several times to try to see if he could bite me, but his mother didn't let him die, hehe!" ”

Everyone was stunned, Qin Yi, who was standing on the side, couldn't help but let out a "poof", and cheerful laughter suddenly sounded in the hall, and the original restrained atmosphere relaxed.

Liu Cun smiled at Tai Shici and said: "No wonder Ziyi is so old-fashioned, it turns out that he has a child, congratulations!" I remember that two hours before my child was born, I received the news and immediately rushed back to my house in Zhushan from Xiahe City. Until I heard the child's first cry and was not at ease, the wife who had seen nothing was relieved, and the moment I picked up the child who had not opened my eyes, I suddenly felt like a dream, and all kinds of feelings came to my heart. ”

Tai Shici suddenly discovered, what kind of celebrity is Liu Cun who is high up in the people? is simply a peer partner around him, and Fu Min, who accompanied him on the side, also felt the same way.

The old lady Taishi nodded frequently, thought about it for a long time, and asked Liu Cun with a pleasant face: "Please forgive the women who took the liberty of making you come from afar, is it a business trip or a visit to friends?" ”

Liu Cun replied truthfully: "It's okay to say it's a business trip, and it's not bad to say it's a visit to friends, but there is only one purpose, that is, to see Ziyi!" The little nephew knows that it is very abrupt and contrary to etiquette to come uninvited, but he is eager to seek talent and can't control himself, so please forgive the old lady! ”

Old Madam Taishi immediately understood, and after thinking about it, she asked curiously: "The dog is young and stubborn, has nothing to do, and his reputation is not more than a hundred miles, how did you know about the dog?" ”

Liu Cun replied respectfully: "Ziyi's reputation has long been spread all over the world, Donglai Taishou Cai is known for his lofty vision and discernment, and he also has a love for Ziyi, Chengyang County, where the little nephew is located, is connected to the mountains and rivers of Donglai County, how can he not know Ziyi's reputation?" Moreover, the fleet of the Langya Chamber of Commerce is berthed twice a month in Longkou Port in the north of the county, in exchange for local graphite, golden sand, lead and zinc, pig iron and other specialties, all the shipwrights and escort officers and soldiers are familiar with Ziyi's heroic and filial piety name, Ziyi's name has already been passed to my Langya army! ”

Old Madam Taishi was dumbfounded when she heard this, and Tai Shici herself was very shocked, and couldn't help but ask: "The huge sea ship that stops at Longkou for one or two days every month turns out to be owned by the navy under the command of the king?" ”

"Almost, the Langya Navy was originally the escort of the Langya Chamber of Commerce fleet, responsible for the waterway safety of the Langya Chamber of Commerce, before only running back and forth between Langya and Xuzhou, and later increased the route from Langya to Bohai County, Jizhou, since the official formation of the army in the early autumn of last year, they have been to the east of the sea Sanhan and Liaodong, a month ago, two larger 500-ton ocean-going cargo ships launched sea trials, from Langya set off and turned into a mountain corner, sailed through Penglai against the north wind, and sailed directly to the sea off the right Beiping that has been frozen, and the day before New Year's Day to complete the sea trial, Smoothly returned to Huangdao Port, the base camp of the navy. At present, there are only 2,000 officers and soldiers in the Langya Navy, in addition to daily training, it is to escort the fleet of the Langya Chamber of Commerce, and it is estimated that in another month, they will cross the sea again to escort the fleet of the Chamber of Commerce to Sanhan and Liaodong trade. Liu Cun deliberately said very carefully, he knew how powerful these contents were to Tai Shici.

Tai Shi Ci was deeply shocked, and Fu Min beside him was also full of longing.

Liu Cun turned to Tai Shici's mother: "Old lady, the Langya Navy has made a great contribution, for more than a year, Langya County alone has placed 150,000 displaced people who had to leave their homes because of the Yellow Turban Rebellion and the drought and locust plague, most of them are my Qingzhou fathers and villagers, 150,000 people's daily food and clothes are all transported from Xuzhou and Jizhou by the Langya fleet and navy day and night, and among the 2,000 sailors and soldiers, more than 1,800 are young children selected from the displaced people. They know very well that their fathers and fellow villagers are waiting for them, so every officer and soldier is very diligent, and they know how heavy the burden is on their bodies, so no matter how hard and tired they are, no one has ever complained, as their commander, I am grateful to them like all the fathers and villagers. ”

The old lady Taishi was extremely moved, stood up and saluted Liu Cun again, Liu Cun hurriedly got up and saluted back, he knew that the thin but dignified and generous woman in front of him was not only a respectable mother, but also an extraordinary woman who was knowledgeable, shrewd, calm and extremely far-sighted.

Old Mrs. Taishi invited Liu Cun to sit down, turned to her son and asked lovingly: "Ci'er, you have grown up, you can make your own decisions, no matter how you decide, my mother will support you." ”

Tai Shici's eyes were slightly red, he turned to Liu Cungong to salute respectfully, raised his head and asked solemnly: "Do you want Xiaomin to enter the Langya Water Army?" ”

Liu Cun was happy in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face: "No! I think Ziyi can better display his talent when he enters the infantry cavalry, if Ziyi does not give up, how about temporarily wronging Ziyi to serve as a cavalry candidate of Yangcheng County? As long as you are familiar with the affairs of the army, learn the legal code of the army, and lead the cavalry under your command to train hard for a year and a half, you will be able to take charge of yourself with the talent of Ziyi. ”

Tai Shi Ci was terrified: "This ...... Envoy, the position is too high, I can't bear it below, and I don't have any experience in the army! ”

Liu Cun motioned to Qin Yi to come over: "This is my personal guard battalion waiting for Qin Yi, let him tell Ziyi and Xiaohe about the situation of our army." ”

Qin Yi immediately puffed up his chest: "Our army has 24,000 troops, except for 2,000 naval troops and 2,000 personal guards, the rest are infantry cavalry troops, including 18,000 infantry and 4,000 cavalry, the supreme commander of each army is Lord Taishou, the commander of the army is Lord Wang Qi, the deputy lieutenant is Lord Ji Wei, and the rest of the county captains and military officers are between the ages of eighteen and twenty-eight. One is Yan Shen, a 24-year-old lieutenant of Dong'an County, and the other is Zhai Yue, a 20-year-old lieutenant of Dongwu County. ”

Tai Shici and Fu Min had a monstrous wave in their hearts, they never dreamed that there were so many troops under Liu Cun's command, the generals were so young, and the results were so brilliant.
