Section 48 The Expanding Yun Family
That's right, far away is actually the biggest protection of the far island, it is almost impossible to hide from the Yun family, the Hou family, and the Feng family on the sea, and the navigation industry of the Tang Dynasty is almost supported by these three families, whether they intentionally or unintentionally, the strict control of the sea has been formed, and such control will not change because of the intervention of the forces on the shore, and the people who go to the sea subconsciously want to cut off the connection between themselves and the land.
Nowadays, there are many people who go to the sea, and they have gradually gained a preliminary understanding of the ocean, which is that the ocean is the last place that can bring huge wealth.
There are many rumors, the most famous is the rumor of the Pirate King, the bearded guest crisscrossed the seas, invincible, was repeatedly surrounded and suppressed by Yun Ye but resurrected again and again, I heard that he robbed another rich kingdom in the Great Food Sea, and plundered the wealth accumulated by people for hundreds of years, but on the way back, he encountered the powerful Lingnan fleet, and had to flee in panic, and finally burrowed into the Devil's Sea with nowhere to escape, and has never been seen again.
Someone swore that he had seen the ship, and it was dangling on the edge of the Devil's Sea, but there was no one on it, and it seemed to be weaving between the reefs under the control of ghosts.
It is also said that as long as the moon is full, you can see the ship rising and falling with the swells on the sea, and the sails on the ship are already tattered, but there are women singing on it, and the pirate king and bearded guest did not disappear because he was lost, but met the kraken, and was bewitched by the beautiful kraken, and kept the boat on the sea again and again until he became a skeleton......
If you collect such legends in Guangzhou, you can collect hundreds of different versions, and in all of them, one thing has never changed, and that is that the Pirate King's fortune still exists......
The Yun family didn't believe in this, and came forward to refute the rumors, but it was said that the Yun family was unpredictable. Preparing to monopolize the Pirate King's property, there are many people who have taken the greatest risk and sailed into the Devil's Sea and have not been heard from since.
This time it was different, a wooden board with a golden beast's head floated out of the Devil's Sea, after being identified by some old sailors who had seen the bearded man. Confirm that this winged tiger head is the symbol of the bearded guest.
Then the sea boiled again, and countless people began to go out to sea in boats, and the braver dared to rush down to the sea with a small sampan, and rushed into the raging waves with an incomparable thirst for money.
In Li Rong's study, Shopkeeper Liu closed his eyes and recuperated, Li Rong looked at the letterhead in his hand, put the letterhead into the envelope again and asked Shopkeeper Liu: "Grandpa Liu, you have seen the bearded guest." Do you think this flying tiger head is real or fake? ”
Shopkeeper Liu opened his eyes and said with a smile: "Back then, the bearded guest was captured by a mountain goat and hung on the sail by others, and the old marquis saved him because of Li Jing's face, and after treating the injuries on his body, he gave him a set of tools, a widow, and exiled to an island with high waves. I want him to spend his whole life on the island.
Unexpectedly, the bearded guest was able to get out of the island and build a great reputation with his bare hands. Invincible in the sea area, saying that he has accumulated a little wealth, I am afraid that there is, the old man and the bearded guest have dealt with him several times after this, and they were all ordered by the old marquis to meet him and warn him not to cross the strait without authorization. Otherwise, there will be no mercy!
What kind of golden flying tiger head, that's a joke, even the sails on the bearded guest's ship are broken things that have been mended and repaired, how can those luxurious decorations come from, and it is not credible to spread false rumors.
Little Marquis. Our family doesn't need to find any pirate king treasures, the bearded guest needs to pay tribute to our family when he is alive, his little wealth does not need to be remembered, money is the most important thing in our family, the old man estimates, someone wants to disturb the sea and make waves, hehe, the strength of the sea decides a qiē, and look at it, wait for the mastermind to surface, our family is not too late to do it, once it is done, it will be completely into hell, the sea is shot down by Hou Ye, how can others be touched! ”
Li Rong is the real county king, but the old people of the Yun family stubbornly call him the little marquis, Li Rong himself also likes this title, whether it is in Yongzhou or Guangzhou, you can easily distinguish from the title that those are old people and those are new.
"Grandpa Liu, there is a very interesting rumor, saying that on the sea in the west, there are also the descendants of my Yun family who are claiming to be kings and hegemons, is it possible that in addition to Xiao Shou and Xiao Huan, I have other brothers?"
Shopkeeper Liu laughed, Li Rong who laughed a little twisted, seeing that Li Rong was a little ashamed, Shopkeeper Liu said: "It's just rumors, our family is just your three brothers, once I heard Hou Ye say that he and your mother are a bad fate in the previous life, entangled in this life, so there is you."
Are there fewer beautiful women in the house? Hou Ye has only five ladies in his life, and all the children will only come from these five ladies, Hou Ye's cleanliness is famous in Chang'an, although the rumors are very unbearable, but how can we not know, so ah, if you meet the so-called Yun family Miao on the sea in the future, although the killer is. ”
Li Rong smiled and said: "I always feel wrong, those people seem to be very familiar with the Yun family, do you remember that four years ago there was a letterhead from the sea, which reminded my father to pay attention to the siege on all sides, and also said that the pattern of the world's attack on Tang has been formed, and the result was that he was right, three months later, my Datang was already in a crisis, and my father had to go to the desert to fight, who do you think this person will be?" ”
Shopkeeper Liu shook his head in confusion and said: "These old people are also thinking about this matter, but they can't figure it out, but Hou Ye doesn't seem to feel strange, so the old man thinks that Hou Ye knows who this person is, but it's just inconvenient to say."
In fact, if the high mountain goat does not die, the whole thing will have a turnaround, in the so-called bloody night incident of the Lingnan Sailor, Hou Ye laid down a mortal killing situation, the high mountain goat had no way to escape, the whole ship was blown to pieces, the emperor searched the sea for a long time, only saw the broken wooden planks, did not find a few living people, according to the confession of those people said that the high mountain goat was dead.
Alas, if the little marquis wants to know the truth of the matter, he might as well send a letter to the old marquis to ask for clarification. By the way, ask about your marriage with Xiaoyuan, the princess means that you want to marry at the age of sixteen, but you were reprimanded by Hou Ye, the children of the Yun family are all married at the age of eighteen, and they are not one year younger, you will be eighteen years old next year, or get married early, and the old man can also give an explanation to Hou Ye. ”
Li Rong was annoyed when he mentioned this, what kind of family is it, the Feng family has now put its main purpose in Yazhou, such a big island is now about to become the Feng family's private territory, and there are already rumors of the Feng family's territory of two thousand miles.
Gaozhou, Luozhou, Chunzhou, plus Yazhou, Danzhou, Zhenzhou on that big island, the rumors of two thousand miles are true, the population of the Feng family is huge, although two were killed by his father, but there are still twenty-eight sons scattered in Lingnan as officials. If he put aside his relationship with Feng Yuan, Li Rong would have already made a move on Chunzhou, which was closest to him.
"Little Marquis, this is a marriage, the original situation is not like this, our family is weak in Lingnan, the Feng family is strong, in order to ensure the safety of Yongzhou, we are not good to conflict with the Feng family, now Feng Ang is too old to be a director, the master of the Feng family is now your father-in-law Zhidai, the master of the sea is Zhiyong, it is not a bad thing to occupy a big island, that island is similar to a distant island, it can only be based on it but not developed, it can be described as a dead land.
The Feng family is now putting all their energy on the sea, so it's okay, they will hand over the affairs on land to you sooner or later, as long as you and Xiaoyuan give birth to children and grandchildren, this matter will be carried out immediately, and I dare not say that the forces in Chunzhou are going to be handed over as a dowry. ”
The master and servant kept talking, and before they knew it, it was twilight, and Li Anlan generally didn't like to move now, and always stayed in Yongzhou, which was her home, so she was the most comfortable.
Lingnan was still hot in September, Li Anlan sat in the gazebo and leisurely fanned the cool breeze with a fan, thinking of the letter from Yun Ye, he couldn't help but scold fiercely.
Half of the pen and ink was used to say that the situation of the girl was used, and half of the pen and ink was used to ask the situation of the son, and when it was time to greet himself, he said, don't steal people!
Damn, you yourself are a concubine, and you hug left and right, but you gave a ban to the old lady, I just don't know what to do. However, through this sentence, it can also be seen that this dead man also knows that the old lady is lonely?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sneer, except for being a little lonely, I was living a good life, Li Rong was going to get married during the New Year, whether it was the Yun family or the Feng family, they were very much looking forward to a successful marriage, and the dead man would come at that time.
In the end, the Yun family's affairs in Lingnan were handed over to Rong'er, and the handover was extremely happy, and the cautious Xin Yue was probably about to be angry to death, right? The dead man was simply generous in this matter.
As long as the wedding is successful, the royal family will be able to meddle in Lingnan affairs justifiably, and the Xuanjia army stuck on the Meiling Ancient Road will also be able to return to Chang'an.
The wasp got on the Yun family's Sea Fish battleship, saying that it was a battleship, but in fact, it was also a modified merchant ship, and the real warships of the Lingnan fleet were still not comparable, and last night I discussed with my boss for a night, and decided that the wasp would go to a distant island, even if it took two years on the incident, it would not hesitate, and it could not be counted if I didn't see it with my own eyes, this is the iron law of the capital water supervisor.
The sails on the Chang'an water system are like clouds, endless, there is still no way to compare with the harbor in front of them, first of all, in the shape of the ship, the sea ships are very short, the sails are very huge, the river boats are generally taller, but the whole hull is not comparable to the sea ships, I did not see the majestic posture of the Emperor at sea, and the wasp felt very regretful. (To be continued......)
