Princess Dening sat under the parasol at the bow of the boat, lying on the deck chair enjoying the sea view in the distance, and tasted the juice with ice cubes from time to time, which made her breathe a long sigh of relief, she was busy in the deep-water port for more than a year, and finally renovated the deep-water port, and the operation of the port was finally normal, she and her husband Wang Shiyue could finally go back to Guangzhou to rest for a few days, and then decide when to return to the capital.

"The lady really enjoys it, but the poor husband has to stay in the stuffy cabin to deal with affairs, and I don't know how much sweat has flowed." At this moment, Wang Shiyue came out of the cabin sweating profusely, and when he saw his wife with a look of enjoyment, he couldn't help but complain a little at the moment, this is the top deck of the ship, and only the couple and the personal maids around them live, so their husband and wife have become a little casual in their conversation.

"Giggles, this is not a method I came up with, but the third brother's letter accidentally mentioned, I tried it according to what he said, and sure enough, I found it very comfortable, speaking of which everyone admires the third brother's talent, but I think his talent in enjoyment is really unmatched." Princess Dening smiled when she heard her husband's words, she and Zhao Yan have been in constant correspondence, this is not to say that the relationship between their sister and brother is extremely good, but Shu'er is with Zhao Yan, so Princess Dening wants to know her son's situation at any time.

"It turned out to be the third brother, so it's no wonder." Wang Shiyue also learned Zhao Yan's talent to know how to enjoy, and he also showed a sudden realization expression at the moment, but then he suddenly sighed and said, "Lady, although the third brother has nothing to say in other aspects, he is too good at calculating people, we could have returned to Beijing more than a year ago, because he recommended us to take care of Jiaozhi's affairs." As a result, I have been busy until now before I have time to return to Guangzhou, and I don't know when I want to return to the capital. ”

Hearing her husband's complaint, Princess Dening smiled slightly: "The third brother and the father have no choice, they want to choose an envoy from the court, but unfortunately those officials don't know anything about the situation in the south at all, and they don't know anything about the sea." If they come to negotiate, I'm afraid that at most Jiaozhi will lose some money, just so we know this, and here in Guangzhou, so it is normal for the third brother and his father to think of us, and it can also be seen from this incident that the court attaches great importance to the husband, isn't the husband also very happy? ”

"I ...... How can I have? When Wang Shiyue heard this, he immediately opened his mouth to quibble, but his sparkling eyes already showed that he was lying. Speaking of Wang Shiyue, although he is not as keen on fame and fortune as Wang Xu, he is a man. There is always a dream of making a contribution, because the identity of the colt was limited in the past, so he could not participate too much in the affairs of the court, but this time the court not only handed over the heavy task of negotiation to him, but also asked him to supervise the construction of the deep-water port, which can be described as extremely trusting, so for more than a year, he also felt very happy. Especially seeing the prosperous appearance of the deep-water port made him feel a sense of accomplishment. Even when he returned to Guangzhou this time, he also brought with him a lot of government affairs of the deep-water port, which shows his feelings for the deep-water port.

Princess Dening was naturally very clear about her husband's thoughts, and now she couldn't help but feel funny when she saw him stumbling and not wanting to admit it, but she didn't make fun of him anymore, but said with a smile: "Since my husband feels that it is stuffy in the cabin. Then it is better to move official business to the deck, blowing the sea breeze and drinking ice juice, it will feel much more comfortable. ”

"yes, I didn't think of that!" When Wang Shiyue heard his wife's reminder, he couldn't help but pat his head excitedly and said, and immediately ordered the maid to move her things out. At the same time, he was also a little annoyed, if he had thought of this method, he would not have had to sweat profusely in the cabin before.

"Hey, lady, look at this information sent by the people of the Imperial City Division!" Not long after Wang Shiyue sat down to deal with affairs, he suddenly picked up a thick piece of information and sent it to Princess Dening and said, this is a piece of information sent by the Imperial City Division lurking in Jiaozhi, which details some of the domestic developments in Jiaozhi.

Princess Dening took the information and looked at it, and then threw down the intelligence report with some disdain: "It seems that the lesson given to Li Rizun last time was not enough, so that he was still a thief to us, and tried to recover the deep-water port day and night, and this time he colluded with Champa, I am very curious how these two old enemies formed an alliance?" ”

The information sent by the people of the Imperial City Division introduced in great detail some of Jiaozhi's recent activities, the most important of which was that Jiaozhi secretly formed an alliance with Champong, speaking of which, soon after the Great Song Dynasty defeated Jiaozhi and forced Jiaozhi to cede land and pay compensation, the rumors that the Great Song Dynasty wanted to annex the entire Southeast Peninsula began to circulate among the small countries of the entire Southeast Peninsula, although this rumor could not withstand scrutiny at all, but it was spread by some well-intentioned people, among which Jiaozhi played a great role in promoting.

With the rumors of the Great Song Dynasty's annexation of the Southeast Peninsula, it also made the small countries on the Southeast Peninsula very panicked, so they were looking for ways to protect themselves, some of the small countries began to desperately show favor to the Great Song Dynasty, and from time to time they would send envoys to the Great Song Dynasty to visit Zhao Shu with gifts, by the way to express their loyalty to the Great Song Dynasty, and there were also some small countries advocating alliances with each other, as long as their strength was strong enough, then the Great Song Dynasty would not dare to act lightly, among which Jiaozhi was also the main country advocating alliances.

Originally, Jiaozhi used to wage war against the surrounding countries at every turn, and almost offended the surrounding countries, so no one responded to the alliance provided by Jiaozhi at first, and the Great Song Dynasty only regarded it as a joke and didn't take it to heart, but I didn't expect that this time Zhancheng didn't know what went crazy, and actually formed an alliance with their old enemy, you must know that the national capital of Zhancheng was looted by Jiaozhi a few years ago, and a considerable part of the spoils taken away by Guo Kui's army from Thang Long Mansion was the wealth of the original Zhancheng.

Wang Shiyue was familiar with the Duke of Bidening on the other side of the city, and when he heard his wife's words, he couldn't help but smile and said: "The lady doesn't know, the city of Zhancheng has already begun to decline, especially before the attack on the national capital by Jiaozhi, which greatly damaged the strength of the king of Zhancheng, and the powerful elders and officials from all over the country took this opportunity to stand on their own, and the entire Zhancheng can be said to have fallen into a state of fragmentation, so I guess that this time the alliance with Jiaozhi is only a certain force in the city, and the people of the Imperial City Division do not understand the situation of the city. That's why they mistakenly thought that the entire Champa would form an alliance with Cochin. ”

"I see, I said that there has long been an endless situation between Champa and Jiaozhi, how can it be reconciled lightly, but I didn't expect it to be an anti-thief within Champa and Jiaozhi Alliance, speaking of which Li Rizun is really falling more and more, a dignified Jiaozhi king actually wants to form an alliance with an enemy country, and he is not afraid of being laughed at by others." Princess Dening said abruptly at this time, and by the way, she expressed her contempt for Li Rizun.

"Hehe, didn't the third brother say that there are no eternal friends between countries, only eternal benefits, this sentence is also true in reverse, Li Rizun has always been proud and arrogant, but he was almost destroyed by our Great Song Dynasty, he must be very unwilling in his heart, so in order to save face, it is understandable that he formed an alliance with his original enemy." Wang Shiyue also talked eloquently about the situation around Jiaozhi, obviously full of confidence in his analysis.

"Hey, I didn't expect my husband to be so clear about the situation on the Southeast Peninsula, it seems that it is too aggrieved to let my husband be a colt." Princess Dening saw her husband's confident appearance, and couldn't help but laugh at the moment.

"Hehe, the lady will laugh, my little ability is all trained by the lady, speaking of which, as long as I am doing maritime business now, who doesn't know the name of the Queen of Nanyang?" Wang Shiyue smiled and replied with a smile when he heard this. The so-called Queen of Nanyang, is the nickname given by the maritime merchants to Princess Dening, she is in charge of the operation of the Great Song Dynasty Sea Trade Bank, a word can decide the life and death of countless merchants, it can be said that the power is huge, plus Princess Dening acted decisively, quite a man's style, so she was called the queen by the people of good things, and because the sea trade line is mainly in the Nanyang court trade, so there is the name of the Queen of the South Seas.

"Giggles, if I am the queen of Nanyang, then I will be the husband of the king, but I heard that there are indeed queens in some tribes in Nanyang, and a queen has to accept a lot of princesses, I am still the princess of the Great Song Dynasty, and the husband said how many princes I have to accept to be worthy of my identity?" Princess Dening heard her husband tease her with the title of queen, but now she joked again.

"Okay, you dare to be half-hearted for your husband, and see that I don't serve the family!" Wang Shiyue pounced on Princess Dening to fight together, speaking of which they are both almost thirty people, but neither of them is a dull person, but they often quarrel and joke, so it is common to fight and make trouble, and the maids around are not strange.

The quarrel between Princess Dening and his wife did not affect the navigation of the ship, and now it happened to be a tailwind, so the speed of the voyage was very fast, and they finally arrived in Guangzhou again after a few days, but as soon as their ship entered the port of Guangzhou, they immediately heard the whole dock discussing a very shocking matter, and this matter was related to the Rakshasa army.

What Princess Dening didn't expect was that when they heard about it, they were about to go to Guangzhou Zhizhou to inquire about the situation, but they didn't expect someone on the dock to suddenly shout "a lot of boats", and when Princess Dening and his wife turned their heads, they found that a very large fleet appeared on the sea in the distance, which seemed to cover the sky and the sun, almost covering the entire sea, and looking at the direction they were heading, the target was the Guangzhou Port where they were located.
