Chapter 167: Song Wuxin

After listening to Ye Mengding's relays of Chen Xinshu's "determination", I couldn't help but be stunned, what does this mean?

"All the officials on my Fujian Road are willing to follow the emperor and rejuvenate our dynasty."

Is Chen Xinshu expressing his determination?

Since I ascended the throne, although the local officials of the thirteen roads of the country say long live, they are actually waiting in their hearts, what changes will occur between the imperial power, the prime power, and the rear power? These old oilmen in the officialdom know very well that standing in line is the first priority for officials.

"Mr. Ye, what do you think?"

Ye Mengding recalled the next process and said: "Judging from the situation at the time, Chen Xinshu and Shi Hongsheng did not say it in advance, and Shi Hongsheng and Zhang Song, who accompanied the guest, also showed surprise after hearing Chen Xinshu's words. Childe, let me first tell you about the attitude of Fujian Road officialdom, on the surface, Fujian Road belongs to the Houquan faction, but the attitude of the real principal, that is, the Chen family, has always been ambiguous, but one thing I think is certain, the Chen family is deeply rooted in Fujian Road, two years ago, when Jia Rudao was preparing to implement the public land law, he chose Liangzhejiang Road and Fujian Road as a pilot, but due to the extreme lack of cooperation of Fujian Road officials, Jia Rudao had no choice, and finally gave up the implementation of the public land law on Fujian Road. It can also be seen from this point that the Chen family does not buy the account of the prime minister's rights. It is said that it is biased towards the rear power, only because Shi Hongsheng once won the appreciation of the queen mother, and as for the imperial power, there is not much friendship between the first emperor and the Chen family. ”

Speaking of this, Ye Mengding stopped, thought for a moment before continuing: "Childe, I think there is such a possibility. ”

"What is possible?"

"The strength shown by Gongzi after he ascended the throne made Chen Xinshu feel that the future situation in the DPRK and China would be completely different from that of the first emperor, and this time I suddenly appeared in the name of Qincha, which made him feel a little uneasy, so Chen Xinshu wanted to make a choice earlier to obtain the greatest benefits."

"Isn't he afraid of being on the wrong side?"

"I'm afraid, he will definitely be afraid, but when it's time to play, he won't hesitate."

I smiled: "Mr. Ye, do all the officials in my court think like this?" ”

"Well, well, most of them." Ye Mengding wiped his sweat and said with a sigh of relief.

"Well, this is also the normal feeling of officials."

"Childe Shengming." Ye Mengding said.

"Mr. Ye, it's not too early, you should go back and rest early, and continue to interrogate and investigate, maybe Fujian Road will be involved."

"Yes, Childe, I'll retire first."

"Well, Lan Yu, you send Mr. Ye."

After Ye Mengding left, I kept tapping lightly on the table with my fingers, for most of the year, I always focused on the court, and ignored the place, the magistrates of the thirteen roads of the Great Song Dynasty did not attract my attention, if these people oppose the imperial power together, even if I can handle the imperial court, my decree will still not be able to be implemented below.

In later generations, even if it is the most free and brightest country on the earth, every time the president is changed, the position of governor of each state will try to arrange for cronies who can implement the president's decree to be filled, so as to ensure that the instructions are uploaded and issued. I didn't pay attention to it, it seems that I still lack experience, but fortunately, on this trip to Fujian Road, Chen Xinshu's "determination" reminded me.

At the same time, I am also glad that Song Duzong, who I crossed over, was the only heir to the imperial power at the end of the Song Dynasty, not like many emperors, who had to go through killing my brother and father and going through hardships to ascend to the throne, so I only need to use yang schemes, and I don't have to play conspiracy, otherwise, I may be killed before I am mature.

Does the message that Chen Xinshu asked Ye Mengding to pass on to me really shows that he chose imperial power? If so, just let him come to me directly, and get the surname done at once, if not, then what will be his purpose?

"Brother, we're back." Fang Ling said excitedly.

"Ling'er, look at what time it is." I pretended to be angry.

Fang Ling didn't pay attention to my appearance at all, sat down and said, "Brother, good news. ”

"Is there any news of Gao's descendants?"

"Of course, Miss Ben is out of the horse and has her hands on it."

"yes, that's going to have to be rewarded."

Fang Ling hurriedly said, "Brother, what's the reward?" ”

"Whatever you say, as long as my brother can do it, it's fine."

"That's what you said, don't cheat."

"As soon as your brother and I open their golden mouth, how can they be cheating?"

"Chrysostom again?" Fang Ling laughed and said, "This is not the capital, you can just blow it." I'll tell you about this reward when I think about it. ”

"Okay, no problem."

"A gentleman's words, the horse is difficult to chase, and you are not allowed to regret it."

"When does my brother stop talking?"

"That's right. Brother, today's situation is like this. ”

I poured a cup of tea and handed it to Fang Lingdao, "Ling'er, drink a cup of tea first and speak slowly." ”

"Yes. That Song Wuxin is indeed like a heartless person, except for being obsessed with shipbuilding, he is very indifferent to everything else. When I told him that there was a man named Huyan Gongzi who knew how to seal the water cabin, he couldn't wait to come and see you. ”

"Ling'er, I just know the name."

"I don't care about this, people, I found it for you, it's up to you now." Fang Ling added, "Who called my brother a god-man! ”

I laughed and said, "A god-man is also a man, unless I am a man-god." ”

"What a human god, a god man, my brother is a god anyway."

"Hehe, I won't fight with you for this, Ling'er, is Song Wuxin a descendant of Gao Shang?"

"I don't know about this, Song Wuxin said that he didn't tell me, he could only tell people who knew the water sealing cabin method, but I think even if he wasn't, he was related to the Shenzhou Giant Ship."

"Well, what about the others, are they coming with you?"

"No, it was very late, and this old Mr. Song didn't know how to ride a horse, so I agreed with him that I would bring him to the city tomorrow morning and meet you."

I shook my head and said, "Don't use it here, let's go to the boat workshop together tomorrow morning, then Song Wuxin has a lot of drawings at home, and it's not convenient to bring them, so it's better to visit." ”

"It's okay, it shows our sincerity even more."

"Yes, what about Wen Zhang, the three of them?"

"These three people, as soon as they came back, they fell asleep, saying that they were tired to death."

Since leaving Lin'an, the sky is clear every day, and the weather in Fuzhou is even hotter than Lin'an. In the summer, it's better to rain comfortably.

Out of the east gate of Fuzhou, and then go east for about 30 miles to the Chuanfangji.

Although the place is small, there are many forks in the road, for my road blindness, I really don't remember at all, fortunately, Fang Ling Wenzhang has a very good memory, and he came to the northwest corner of the shipyard set after seven turns and eight turns.

"Brother, that's it ahead."

"Well, let's go."

Song Wuxin had already cleaned up and was waiting for Fang Ling to pick it up. As soon as the door opened, Song Wuxin said, "Little girl, let's go." ”

"Mr. Song, no need, I'll bring someone here."

Song Wuxin looked at the few of us and said, "May I ask who is it?" ”

I took two steps forward and said, "Mr. Song, I am Huyan." ”

"Son Huyan?" Song Wuxin glanced at me carefully and said, "Dare to ask Gongzi how expensive Geng is this year?" ”

"Hehe, five out of twenty." I know that Song Wuxin thinks I'm too young, Zhao Yu is 25 years old, I'm also in my twenties, and I'm in my fifties together, so naturally I won't be much younger than Song Wuxin.

"Mr. Song, this is the son of Huyan, do you think he is too young?" Fang Ling smiled, "This is called ambition is not old, old man, isn't it?" ”

Song Wuxin couldn't help but be a little embarrassed when he saw Fang Ling exposing his intentions, so he had to smile and say, "Childe, please come in, talk in the house." ”

As Fang Ling relayed what the shopkeeper said, the house was messy, and there were drawings everywhere.

Song Wuxin led me and Fang Ling into a hut inside, and said, "Son, the old man's humble house is shabby, please forgive me for my neglect." ”

I heard that Song Wuxin's words did not mean to be polite, and I knew that he doubted my shipbuilding ability because of my age, so I didn't care at the moment and said, "It's okay." ”

"The old man's house is messy, and the son can do it at will."

I casually found a vacant seat, and after sitting down, I directly talked about the water sealing cabin method and the foot pulley group method that I had listened to from Quanjue and others.

The more Song Wuxin listened, the more excited he became, and he kept muttering, "Ah, it's still like this, why didn't I think of it?" ”

Of course, I can't explain why, but after I finished speaking, I gave full play to my strengths and talked about the physical knowledge related to shipbuilding, such as buoyancy, structure, and materials science, which made Song Wuxin listen to it fascinated.

"Xiao Yi, go and pour two glasses of water for Gongzi Huyan and Miss Fang."
