At the headquarters of the Phi Dao Jiebai Trading Company, Tang Baocheng is reading a list......

Tang Baocheng is worried about the list of upcoming envoys to North Korea, this is his fourth mission to North Korea, in early October he went to North Korea to negotiate, and finally solved the food problem of the Ming soldiers bordering the border with North Korea, Li Liang promised to send chestnut rice to help, in mid-October he sent another mission to North Korea, in his efforts and Lushun, under the deterrence of Phi Dao's armed forces, the North Korean side finally set up a Tong City in Xuanchuan, a large number of tea, liquor and other materials continue to change hands through Xuanchuan to Houjin, the mutual market has benefited North Korea and Phi Dao a lot, According to the information of the Department of Foreign Affairs, the special service team led by Lao Cannon raided Jeju Island at the end of October with the cooperation of the Ming army on Phi Island, broke through the defense of the North Korean side, and recaptured the family of Li Hui, the prince of Huizhang, Liushi and Zhaorong Zheng, who were under house arrest, and the other concubines were Zhaoyi Hong (father: Hong Mai), Zhaoyi Yin (father: Yin Hongye, who was given death anyway), Shuyi Xu (father: Xu Ju), Shuyi Yuan (father: Yuan Shoushen), Shuyi Quan (father: Quan Yuqing), Zhaorong Ren (father: Ren Mengzheng), Shuyuan Xin (father: Xin Jinjing), Shuyuan Shen abolished Shuyuan Jinjie, etc., as well as the deposed son Li Ji (from Princess Huizhang), concubine (from Shuyi Yin) and some other children.

Seeing these rescued lists, although Tang Baocheng was not very interested in Ma Ziqiang, he couldn't help but praise: "Well done!" ”

It's nothing to control Guanghaijun in his hands, the key is to arrest his gang of harems as well. Behind these concubines stood all the valve families of North Korea, and they were severely suppressed after Li Liang came to power, but the hundred-legged insects died but did not stiffen. These repressions did not cause fundamental harm to the entrenched aristocracy and wealthy families, they just hibernate and waited for the opportunity, and controlling these concubines in their hands was equivalent to controlling the vast majority of the opposition in North Korea, and Tang Baocheng could not help but admire the foresight of the adults.

"What?" Cai Changshun, who was buried in the first batch of documents, looked up at Tang Baocheng, who was happy, and asked.

"See for yourself," Tang Baocheng handed over the documents marked with top secret

In the middle of the ring, Cai Changshun put down the document, rubbed his eyes and said, "Didn't this old cannon sue our Foreign Affairs Department in front of adults?" Why don't you seem to care? Doesn't match your personality? ”

Tang Baocheng laughed and said, "How can I have such a little chicken belly? ”

The two laughed for a while. Tang Baocheng said again: "It's not so much that the old cannon sues us, it's better to say that he doesn't understand something and wants to take this opportunity to get an answer from the adults." ”

Cai Changshun said in surprise: "Oh? Is it? ”

Tang Baocheng nodded: "Lao Pao has never gone to private school." He didn't know that adults had taught us similar things, do you remember the lesson (the moral logic behind murder) that adults took? ”

Cai Changshun nodded and recalled for a moment, and then asked suspiciously: "Ah, I still remember some." But is this comparable to what happened to Yu Xueyong's family? ”

Tang Baocheng said solemnly: "Of course there is." Yu Xueyong's family is no different from the sailor who was eaten by a show of hands, but with the premise that Yu Xueyong will participate in the southern plunder, at least it makes this murder seem more just......"

Cai Changshun fell into a silent memory, and only after half a sound did he say: "It's a pity that the adults didn't give us an answer back then, what is justice and what is fairness?" ”

Tang Baocheng thought for a while and replied: "There is no absolutely correct answer at all, and you don't have to think about those virtual things, for us." The most important thing is to do what we think is right out of our duty. As for the old cannon, it is not without meaning for the adults to arrange for him to leave the army and let him lead the special service team, presumably he will face many difficult choices, right? Like the choices we faced at the beginning? ”

Cai Changshun smiled slightly and said sarcastically: "Don't you often say that adults have the Foreign Intelligence Department, and they have to set up a separate special service team, is it obviously because the Foreign Intelligence Department is the only one and is not at ease?" Why are you trying to defend Master Ma today? ”

Tang Baocheng was stunned and said: "The reason why noble morality is noble is not to look at its effect, but because it itself is noble, just like Guanghaijun's matter, if we want our Foreign Affairs Department to do it, we may be able to complete the task, but the result may not be able to be successfully completed like this, this is what I admire Master Ma." ”

Cai Changshun nodded and asked with concern, "When will you leave?" My brother and sister are both six months old, right? It's a pity that you didn't go back to debriefing and visiting this time. ”

Tang Baocheng's expression was slightly dazed, and he said after a while: "I have to wait for two days, and when the trade personnel who presided over the negotiations from the Ministry of Commerce and Trade arrive, they will set off, and there are 900 catties of good ginseng, 5,000 catties of high-grade wine, 800 horses of green cloth, etc., you must prepare them as soon as possible, so as not to be in a hurry temporarily." ”

Cai Changshun said: "What is the bottom line of the adults this time?" ”

Tang Baocheng laughed: "This time the adults have a great appetite, what ceded Jeju Island, three hundred turtle boats, six hundred craftsmen of all kinds, and what grain, pig iron, silk sand, mercury, etc., in short, Li Liang can't vomit blood this time, who made him not even look at Guanghaijun?" ”

"What conditions do you expect Li Qi to make? The adults have repeatedly explained that the DPRK is a rogue state, and this time such a large-scale business delegation will go to the talks, and it is necessary to be careful to prepare for the DPRK side to turn its face. Cai Changshun said with concern

Tang Baocheng shook his head and said: "Li Liang's set of protests, condemnations and the like are of no use to me, the rogue country will use hooligan means to deal with it, I am ready to give advice to the adults, and hand over Guanghaijun's Zhaoyi Yin family and concubine to Li Liang in exchange." This time, I also plan to contact Li Hao, the prince of Fenglin, who has a high demand for succession......"

Hearing Tang Baocheng's idea of beating Li Liang's son, Cai Changshun was startled, and said repeatedly: "You shouldn't be holding the Fenglin Lord hostage, right?" In the event of a defeat, North Korea may completely fall to the back of the gold, is this not a joke? ”

Tang Bao became a so-called smile and said, "I said it just now. To deal with hooligans, you have to use hooligan methods, and you think that every time I go to North Korea, I am warmly welcomed by them. Li Kun is also respectful to me, Tang Baocheng is even more precedented, why? It's me Tang Bao who has grown three heads and six arms, is it the vicious means of our Foreign Intelligence Department? No, the reason why North Korea is willing to give in is because our Lushun has won victories in the war against the Houjin, and has military strength as a backing, even if it is an idiot who goes to North Korea, he will be treated as a guest, I only hope that there will be no bad news from Yangguanbao when I go to North Korea. Otherwise, I, Tang Baocheng, might have only participated in the Li Dynasty feast yesterday, and the next day my head would have been hung up. ”

During this time, Cai Changshun also heard a lot about Li Chao's rogue style, and nodded with deep sympathy: "That's true." ”

Tang Baocheng said again: "So." This time I'm going to observe Li Liang's heir, and listen to his thoughts, if he has some affection for my Lushun, then it will be easy to do. I'm thinking. Why don't you just kill Li Kun? Wouldn't it be better to let the Lord of Fenglin succeed to the throne in advance? ”

Syllable!

The book in Cai Changshun's hand fell on the table suddenly, and he stammered: "It turns out that you want to go further, but, but how old is Fenglin Dajun now?" ”

Tang Baocheng said: "In the sixth year of the Apocalypse, Li Hao was named the Prince of Fenglin, and he was just seventeen years old this year, the same year as me, and he was not young, and the responsibility should also be assumed." ”

Seeing Cai Changshun's shocked look. Tang Baocheng laughed: "Don't worry, even if the Lord of Fenglin doesn't go to the Tao." Isn't there also his elder brother Zhaoxian's son Li Jun and younger brother Linping Dajun Li Jun? I'm going to take this opportunity to look at each one and see which one is more incompetent. ”

Cai Changshun thought for a while and said, "Do adults know this idea?" ”

Tang Baocheng nodded: "Not yet, when the envoy to North Korea returns, I will submit a detailed plan to the adults for approval, by the way, has the Dongjiang side been informed of the envoy to North Korea?" ”

Cai Changshun shook his head: "Not yet"

Tang Baocheng nodded: "Then I'll go in person, the envoy to North Korea can't do it without them to support the scene, you go and receive the envoy of North Korea,"

"By the way?" Seeing that Tang Baocheng was about to leave, Cai Changshun hurriedly stopped him, and in Tang Baocheng's questioning expression, Cai Changshun suddenly said with a little twist: "This time, well, this time the Ministry of Commerce and Trade sent someone to come over to negotiate with you, you see, do you think Miss Xiao from the Ministry of Commerce and Trade will come over in person to preside?" ”

"Miss Xiao? Xiao Yulan? Tang Baocheng was a little inexplicable, seeing Cai Changshun's flushed face, he suddenly realized: "It turns out that you are in love, no, you are in a crush, and it is not right, you are in unrequited love, our Lushun is a daughter who is loved by thousands of people, Xiao Yulan?" I said Changshun, looking at your usual appearance of a decent man and a gentleman, it turns out that you are hiding deep enough? Even I don't know? ”

Cai Changshun's face was full of embarrassment, and he said: "Originally, I originally filled in the volunteer of the Ministry of Commerce, who would have thought that I would be transferred here?" ”

Tang Baocheng became interested, grabbed the chair and pulled it away, and stared at Cai Changshun, who was even more flustered, and tried his best to avoid his interrogation.

"Miss Xiao has been miserable since she was a child, you know?" Tang Baocheng said suddenly

Cai Changshun nodded: "Anton Wei's people know, but I don't care, if you really like it, why care?" That's not her fault. ”

Tang Baocheng sighed and sneered: "It turns out that Lord Cai of our Foreign Affairs Department is so affectionate and admired, but Xiao Yulan is regarded as a sister by adults, I heard that if you want to propose marriage to the Xiao family, you have to nod your head, what do you think?" ”

Cai Changshun shook his head and said blankly: "I don't know ...... either"

Seeing Cai Changshun's depressed appearance, Tang Baocheng said cautiously: "What about Xiao Yulan?" What is her attitude? ”

Cai Changshun continued to shake his head, Tang Baocheng slapped the table violently, startling Cai Changshun, Tang Baocheng said: "It turns out that you are just unrequited love?" It's no wonder. ”

Cai Changshun stammered: "What? What do you mean? ”

Tang Baocheng didn't answer, got up and left directly, Cai Changshun was furious and scolded: "Tang Baocheng, you explain it to me!" ”

Tang Baocheng's head flashed out from behind the door and said, "No need for unrequited love, Xiao Yulan already has a sweetheart!" ”

Cai Changshun sat back on the stool as if he had been struck by lightning, and muttered, "How can this be?" Miss Xiao has a sweetheart? How did I not know? ”

After a while, Tang Baocheng quietly sat back opposite Cai Changshun, who still maintained that lost his soul.

"Who is it?" Cai Changshun suddenly sat up straight and asked, "Who is Miss Xiao's sweetheart?" You must know, right? ”

Tang Baocheng nodded with a smile: "I know, of course I know, but I advise you, your rival is not easy to deal with?" That guy is in the third phase, eighteen years old, he is already an official to the battalion commander, and the most important thing is that I heard that Miss Xiao feels good about him, so I waited for the deadline promised by the adults personally, and when Miss Xiao was eighteen years old, he came to the door to propose marriage. ”

"Zheng San Province!" Cai Changshun read out a name weakly, and at the same time, some situations in Zheng San Province also appeared in his mind, Zheng San Province, the commander of the Qingfan Battalion, made great contributions when he harassed behind enemy lines in Fuzhou, and was promoted to the high position of the commander of the full battalion by an adult before the age of eighteen.

Tang Baocheng sighed, patted Cai Changshun on the shoulder and comforted: "Let's do it and cherish it, Miss Xiao has a heart, you don't have much chance, besides, that Zheng Sansheng is not only a high and powerful person, but also looks like a......"

"How do you know?" Cai Changshun regained his senses a little, and immediately thought of this, he said with some panic: "Baocheng? Are you still spying on insiders? ”

"Nope"

Tang Baocheng hurriedly shook his head and flatly denied it: "Absolutely not, the whereabouts and funds of the personnel of the Foreign Intelligence Department are under your control, don't you know?" Last time, I followed your advice and evacuated Wang Xiaoqi in a hurry. ”

Cai Changshun sighed and said in a deep voice: "Baocheng, it would be more natural if you continued to stare at me when you were lying, it doesn't matter if Miss Xiao has a sweetheart or not, but you, Baocheng, if you continue to act so boldly, one day, something will finally happen?" ”

At this moment, two long and one short knocks suddenly came to mind outside the door, and the two quickly recovered from their embarrassment, Tang Baocheng said to the door: "Come in, is it Qiu Yong?" ”

Peng, the door was opened, Wang Xiaoqi ran in in a hurry, he ran while muttering loudly: "Urgent report, Lushun urgent report!" ”

"See what you look like?" Cai Changshun saw Wang Xiaoqi's startled appearance and reprimanded.

Wang Xiaoqi was a little unconvinced, Tang Baocheng got up and took the secret letter, and said to Cai Changshun: "You can't blame Xiaoqi, this is the highest-level chicken feather letter in Lushun, our Foreign Intelligence Department has not received this kind of secret letter, I'm afraid something big will happen in Lushun." ”

Cai Changshun looked at the secret letter in Tang Baocheng's hand, and there were three thick chicken feathers in the fire paint!

"Xiao Qi, you go and settle the messenger first" Tang Baocheng waved his hand to let Xiao Qi out, and when the door was closed, he took the letter knife with some trembling trembling, and spat out again, before cutting open the envelope and taking out the secret letter inside.

"Qi Shaobao's new book, fast!" Tang Baocheng stretched out his hand towards Cai Changshun.

Cai Changshun took out Ji Xiaoxin's book from a large pile of mother books in a panic and handed it to Tang Baocheng, his heart rose to his throat, what happened to Lushun? Could it be the Battle of Yangguan Fort? Cai Changshun didn't even dare to think about it......

After half a ring, Tang Baocheng exhaled and said to Cai Changshun: "Two news, one good news and one bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" (To be continued......)
