Chapter 632: Winter is Coming
Glancing up at Qi Jin, Yu Zhigao laughed loudly, waved his hand, and said, "Brother, you guessed wrong this time!" I'm not trying to be greedy, now that the emperor values me, I won't do anything like that. Back then, my father worked hard for the Ming Dynasty, just because he couldn't be an official, so I don't need to say the result, right? ”
Silently poured a glass of wine for Yu Zhigao, but Qi Jin did not speak. Back then, his uncle and Yu Zhigao's father both made great contributions to Daming, but the end was not very good. I was okay, but Yu Zhigao was greatly affected by this incident, and the whole person became a little extreme.
"Brother Fool thought about it at that time, I will never learn from my father in this life, I want to live my life well. But the appearance of the emperor has changed me, and I can't help but work hard for the emperor. I still remember the glass of wine that the emperor gave me at the beginning, and the sentence that I couldn't stand my father. With this sentence, even if I, Yu Zhigao, sell my life to the emperor, even if I die on the battlefield, I Yu Zhigao will have no regrets in this life! Yu Zhigao may have drunk a little too much, although his words were bold, but the expression on his face was unusually sad, and he muttered: "It's a pity, my father didn't live to wait for this day!" ”
Drinking the wine in the cup in one gulp, Qi Jin said with a smile: "They didn't see it, we saw it!" The next time you go to the grave, you can talk about it. ”
"I also need to say that after I got the news, I immediately told me about it in front of my father's tablet. I don't think he'll be happy to see his face, though. With a smile on his face again, Yu Zhigao continued: "The emperor said that there are many things that we will do in the future, and they are all opportunities to make money." Just cleaning up pirates will make us rich, that's really money! And this is a reward from the emperor, we take it with peace of mind, and our good days are coming! ”
Shaking his head helplessly, Yu Zhigao's obsession with money seems to have no way to change. But that's not a bad thing. As long as it is through good means, what's the harm of making some money?
The two of them drank until the middle of the moon, and staggered back into the cabin, where the moonlight shone on the sea. It's like the Milky Way in the sky, which makes people dizzy.
Time passed quickly unconsciously, and in a blink of an eye, it was October of the fifth year of the Apocalypse, and the weather had gradually turned colder. People also began to add clothes, and Nan Juyi sat in the lobby, covered with a big hat, frowning slightly. Calculating the time, the Holy Decree should have returned at this time, could there be some accident?
These days, Nan Juyi has been following the situation in the Taiwan Strait, and the Spaniards and the Dutch have already clashed several times. However, the scale is not large, and they are obviously testing each other. Winter is coming, and I'm afraid they'll stop too. However, Nan Juyi can already predict that on the sea after the beginning of spring, there will definitely be a rumbling of cannons.
"Your Excellency. My lord, an angel is coming! The servants of the yamen ran in from outside, shouting loudly and panting all the way.
Standing up suddenly, Nan Juyi's face flashed with excitement, it's coming, it's finally here! Place the stool on the stool. After tidying up his official uniform, Nan Juyi strode out. As soon as he walked to the door, Nan Juyi saw someone rushing in and divided into two teams. Flying fish suit, Xiuchun knife, is the person of Jinyiwei!
Then a eunuch walked in. Behind him was followed by a military attache of the third rank of Jinyi Wei, which made Nan Juyi stunned. This person is actually the commander of the Jinyi Guard? I really didn't expect to come back with such a person.
In the Jinyi Guard, the hereditary Jinyi Guard's commander grabbed a handful, which was not unusual at all. The key depends on the previous authority, Luo Sigong is in charge of the brocade clothes. This is the real commander of the Jinyi Guard. Although the person in front of him was also the commander of the Jinyi Guard, Nan Juyi didn't take it to heart.
"Which one is Nan Juyi, the governor of Fujian?" Although he saw Nan Juyi, the eunuch still raised his head high, looked like no one in his eyes, and asked in a sharp voice.
This is already an old rule, Nan Juyi naturally didn't care, bent down respectfully, and said: "This official is Nan Juyi, the governor of Fujian!" ”
The eunuch nodded, took the holy decree from the hand of the brocade-clothed guard general on the side, and said expressionlessly: "Nan Juyi, take the decree!" ”
"Minister Fujian Governor Nan Juyi received the order, long live my emperor, long live, long live!" Nan Juyi hurriedly knelt on the ground, although the expression on his face did not change, but his heart was about to reach his throat!
"Fengtian carried the emperor, and the edict said: Nan Juyi, the governor of Fujian, is solid about the king's affairs, does not shirk, and I am very relieved. He was crowned Nan Juyi as the right attendant of the Ministry of War, in charge of the Fujian military, and comprehensively handled the Penghu affairs. Do your best to live up to my expectations and protect the whole country! The eunuch gently unfolded the holy decree, read it aloud, and finally handed it over to Nan Juyi.
Sure enough, sure enough! The emperor really didn't let himself down, Nan Juyi trembled and took the holy decree, and said loudly: "Chen Nan Juyi received the decree and thanked him, long live my emperor, long live, long live, long live!" ”
"Hurry up! It's cold on the ground! After handing over the holy decree to Nan Juyi, the eunuch's face suddenly changed, and he went to support Nan Juyi with a smile like a flower, with a flattering smile on his face.
"My father-in-law is polite, I don't know what this father-in-law is called? It's been a long journey! Nan Juyi was naturally no stranger to these, and after standing up, he smiled and talked to the eunuch.
The eunuch glanced back at the Jinyi guard behind him, and then said with a smile: "Don't ask Lord Nan, our family is just the emperor's slave, our family name is Liu, you can just call me Xiao Liuzi!" ”
"My father-in-law is polite, looking at my father-in-law's age, it must be the famous Chen Lin Chen's father-in-law, right?" Nan Juyi still had a smile on his face, but his eyes shrank slightly, he didn't expect the Emperor of the Apocalypse to send Chen Lin here!
You must know that to pass on such a will, eunuchs don't have to be too statusy, but this time Chen Lin was indeed sent, it seems that the Emperor of the Apocalypse has another errand!
"I don't deserve such a compliment from Lord Nan, our family is following the emperor's will this time, and we are also begging for food under Lord Nan's hands. Our family is young and ignorant, so if there is anything that can't be reached, Nanda people will take care of it more. The smile on Chen Lin's face became even brighter, obviously very cold to Nan Juyi's compliment.
nodded slowly, sure enough, this is the prison sent by the emperor. However, this is also a rule, when foreign ministers fight, there must be internal ministers as supervisors. He reached out and took a plate on the side, which was covered with red silk, but it was a plate of silver.
"Father-in-law, this is the rule, please smile!" Nan Juyi did not shy away from it at all, this is the rule of officialdom, you must reward the eunuch who passed the decree, this money is not good.
"Nan-sama, you're too polite, then our family will accept it!" Chen Lin agreed with a smile, and a little eunuch walked up and took the plate. Glancing at Nan Juyi, Chen Lin continued: "Lord Nan, let me introduce to you, this is Zhang Dake, the commander of the Nanjing Jinyi Guard, who was sent by the emperor this time. They are responsible for tracking the gaps, and as for how to do it, we don't bother to ask. ”
Nan Juyi nodded, Chen Lin was able to say this to himself, it was already his own silver that played a role. Nodding at Zhang Dake, neither of them spoke.
"Father-in-law, let's go in and talk about it!" Nan Juyi quickly turned his gaze to Chen Lin's body, smiled and made a gesture of please.
When they arrived at the meeting room, everyone sat down, Chen Lin once again took out a document from his arms, handed it to Nan Juyi, and said with a smile: "Nan Daren, this is a document from the Military Aircraft Department, please take a look at Nan Daren." ”
I didn't expect that there were still paperwork in the Military Aircraft Department, but after all, there was going to be a war, so there was no need to make a fuss. After receiving the paperwork, Nan Juyi looked at it, and the joy on his face became stronger and stronger.
In this document, the affairs of the Spaniards and the Portuguese are detailed, and the affairs of the navy are also discussed. roughly pointed out a direction for Nan Juyi, so that Nan Juyi had a more comprehensive understanding of the attitude of the Emperor of the Apocalypse.
"Father-in-law, tonight, the subordinates of the government will pick up the wind for the father-in-law, I hope the father-in-law will not shirk!" If it was an ordinary eunuch, Nan Juyi would naturally not do this. But the eunuchs of the prison army are different, and they must have a good relationship with the eunuchs of the prison army, which is known to everyone who leads the army.
"If there is Lord Laonan, then our family will be ashamed!" Chen Lin smiled and did not say no.
Since that day, the entire Fuzhou Yamen has been busy, preparing all day long.
In Hong Kong, Taiwan, in Zheng Zhilong's meeting hall, Zheng Zhilong sat on a chair expressionlessly, looking at his two younger brothers, as well as Chen Zhongji.
"Big brother, why are we wading into this troubled water? Even if we don't participate, the Spaniards and the Dutch will fight, the younger brother doesn't understand! Zheng Zhihu looked at Zheng Zhilong and put forward meaning to his eldest brother. In fact, since he got Zheng Zhilong's promise to attack the Spaniards with the Dutch, Zheng Zhihu didn't figure it out.
Turning his gaze to Chen Zhongji, Zheng Zhilong said with a smile: "Zhihu, this stupid guy can't understand, I don't know if Brother Chen can understand?" ”
"The purpose of the big boss is very simple, this time we want to expel all the Spaniards and Dutch, and we will dominate the Taiwan Strait." Chen Zhongji looked at Zheng Zhihu and said softly.
Zheng Zhihu on the side didn't understand even more, and Zheng Zhibao on the side glanced at each other, and said with a little worry: "Big brother, our strength is okay to deal with one of them, if you want to pay attention to these two, I'm afraid it's not enough!" What's more, there is also the imperial court next to us, I still don't think it's appropriate! ”
"Well, if you don't understand, you don't need to understand! Do what I say, and that's it! Zheng Zhilong obviously had no interest in explaining, turned around and walked out.
