"Swing the car, the Seoul Garrison of the Metropolitan Mansion of the Ming Dynasty." The palace attendants passed orders, and the palace guards, palace maids, and royal servants were busy running around to prepare, after all, the travel of the king of Korea was a great event for this country and for them, the slaves and maids living in the palace.

And the monarch of North Korea, Li Jin, was leaning next to the big candle with the thickness of his arm, with a little nervousness, flipping through the "Three Great Decrees", and then he turned to a certain page, gritted his teeth and said: "Gelding! Too much bullying! Looking up at Queen Yin's sad eyes, Li Yao said hatefully, "Cao only put aside a sentence, he must wear a military uniform, and he felt that this matter was not so simple. Carefully read this order, and sure enough, on the first day of each month, the flag-raising ceremony is not to wear this black combat uniform, but to wear a red military uniform! ”

The queen hurriedly sent her chamberlain to get the military uniform, but asked Li Yao: "In this way, Mr. Rong Cheng has no intention of interfering in the political affairs of North Korea, but the people under Mr. Rongcheng, such as the eunuch Cao, are peeking on the king's inheritance?" Hearing this, Li Yao smiled bitterly, shook his head, and didn't say anything.

It wasn't until Queen Yin asked again that Li Yao sighed: "What does Mr. Rongcheng want North Korea to do?" As long as the words and deeds are respectful, for Mr., who sits on this son is not the same? Cao and Wen Fatzi are different, if they are lonely, this son can arrange for some of them to sit! ”

If Ding Yi listened to him. I'm afraid that I want to praise him for being transparent, and it is indeed impossible for Ding Yi to govern North Korea in person, right? So who is the king and not when is it? But if Cao Jixiang is allowed to be the king of North Korea. Presumably, someone Cao will go to worship God and make a vow right away, right? What did he leave his actual job in the regimental camp and follow Ding Yi for? Isn't that what it's all about? Whether it was Cao Jixiang who deliberately dug a pit for Li Yao, it is unknown. But at least this logic makes sense, if Cao digs a pit, he has interests to gain.

At this time, the fire Red Army dress was brought over, Li Yao hurriedly changed it, and approached the candle flame to carefully look at the order, and then put her mind at ease after confirming that it was correct.

The queen looked to leave. But he persuaded, "Don't you bow early in the morning?" It's not dawn yet! ”

"Do you think Lone is going to the court?" Li Yao asked the queen with a wry smile, and then under the guard of the palace armor, he got into the car and headed for the garrison diagonally opposite the palace. As a monarch to the court, it is natural that after the ministers are in shift, the king Shi Shiran went to the palace to accept the worship, but he is not going to participate in this ceremony as a king, he is the guard regiment of the Ming Metropolitan Governor's Mansion, and the bow and arrow instructor of the special training subject. Fifth-class non-commissioned officer Li Yao!

There is no conspicuous and majestic building in the garrison, a Chinese-style courtyard house, according to the heart, if it is practical. Lian Yunyuan's bunkers, known as the "Great Ming Monument", are far inferior, and they have no defense at all. It's just that on the left side of the door, a rectangular wooden plaque with black characters on a white background was nailed: Seoul Garrison of the Great Metropolitan Mansion of the Ming Dynasty.

There is a flag stand at the door, and a tall flagpole stands. There were two soldiers in red military uniforms, standing like a mountain. Guards on both sides of the flagbase, that's all.

Li Yao's guard of honor and military horses were very large. The guards in front of them were approaching the yellow cordon in front of the flag, about three or five paces away, and still did not intend to stop, preparing to cross over and set up defenses. At this time, a limping Ming soldier shouted to stop them, and ripped off the holster buckle of the pistol at his waist: "Those who commit the great tomorrow will be killed." ”

"Dead lame! It's not good to say this, what are you talking about? "Those palace guards are also rampant on weekdays, this Ming army with some inconvenience on his legs is the wounded Qi Muge, those guards are right, he is a soldier from the grassland, and his tone does have a stiff accent.

The palace guards laughed when they heard this, and they had to say that they couldn't say that they laughed for no reason, a big man of the grassland who even spoke plainly and bluntly, where he said "committing a great tomorrow's might" was really a bit unbearable.

But before they could finish laughing, Li Jin, who rushed out of the sedan chair, had already pulled out his dagger and stabbed it into the guard's heart from behind, and the guard collapsed to the ground and looked at Li Jin, blood gushing out of his mouth, and hissed: "Your Majesty...... Wang ...... "He doesn't understand, his own king, why should he kill him, and do it himself?" As a king, unless he faces a character like Ding Rongcheng, otherwise, even if he kills someone, he won't have to do it himself!

The palace guard took his last breath and couldn't figure it out until he died. And Li Yao also exhaled, fortunately, this guard is still more than a meter away from the yellow line, the reason why he did it himself is because he is afraid that it will be too late, if this guard crosses the yellow line, he doesn't know what will happen, he doesn't want to think about it.

Li Jin is not bloodless, but in front of Ding Yi, who is invincible at all, he has to obey, not for his wife and daughter, not for his heirs, for the king, he is called a lonely widow, he can abandon these things, he has to learn to obey for this thousands of miles of rivers and mountains.

The guards retreated, saluted each other with their wooden grids, and the garrison was so shabby that even the military band could not afford it, so when the morning sun rose, more than 20 Ming soldiers in red military uniforms lined up and roared the military song, and raised the Mingzi battle flag on the flagpole.

"You are temporarily subordinate to the garrison, and the gentleman takes special care of it, saying that he should not give you too much duty except for the big ceremony." Captain Wang of the garrison is a student from Rongcheng Academy and a classmate of Yang Shousui, and to be honest, he is not outstanding, otherwise even if he was wounded in the battle to annihilate the Incheon Metropolitan Protectorate, he would not have been sent here.

However, for the students of the academy, the affection of classmates is there, and he still has a good relationship with Yang Shousui and others. People like Cao Jixiang who can come to things naturally often keep in touch with each other. So Cao Jixiang put forward that request, and Captain Wang felt that it was not easy to refute Director Cao's face, and besides, it would not be too much of a problem to implement, so he said to Li Yao: "So, arrange for you to be on duty once a month, just go to the post at dark at noon on the second day of the first month, guard the battle flag, and you will be in a group with his wooden grid." If you don't want to, you can also refuse, write a report yourself, don't worry, the Metropolitan Governor's Office of the Four Seas is very transparent, and it will be sent directly to the Quanzhou Garrison, and then transferred to Mr., you are a fifth-level non-commissioned officer, and you have the right to submit a report. ”

"No need, no need, I don't dare to ask for it!" Li Yao hurriedly said this, he didn't want to give the dog eunuch or the dead fat man a chance to go to Ding to go forward and talk greedily; I don't want Ding Yi to think that he still has any ideas. He knows very well that he can't think about it, it seems that he has no interest, but in fact, it is the best way to save his life, not to mention, after all, it can be seen that it is the people below who are embarrassing him, and Ding Yi did not deliberately want to do anything against him.

In fact, Li Yao was a little scared by the killing in Jingde Palace that day. Cao Jixiang and Wen Fatzi didn't have the heart to say bad things about Li Yao at this time. They were dying of exhaustion, because the war reparations obtained from Seoul had to be registered, valued, and loaded.

Because there are many antique calligraphy and paintings, when I was in Seoul at that time, it was arbitrarily priced, no matter what Han and Tang Dynasties it was, it was just thirty or fifty taels of silver, and I didn't want to take it back and exchange it for silver! The treasury of North Korea has almost been moved, a full four hundred taels of silver, and Li Yao proposed to pay so much - Jin Shixi said that he would lose two hundred taels, and he also sold all the diplomatic power and military power, as the ruler of North Korea, if he didn't show a little useful ability to Ding Yi, could he really think that the fifth-level non-commissioned officer could make him safe?

And now to formally value these calligraphy and painting antiques, this thing is inexperienced, and only people who have seen it can get things done.

"Sir, do they still have money to buy the goods imported at this time?" Su Jian asked Ding Yi a little worriedly.

Ding Yi looked at the silver boxes that were being loaded on the ship, and said with a smile: "Li Yao has no money, the scholar class and the family still have money, what are you worried about?" "The war reparations are only the first wave, and the second wave is the dumping of goods, a large number of fine glassware, strong and cheap cotton cloth, which will occupy the Korean market; Of course, that's not the case, Ding Yi still has a plan waiting for him.

"Yueqing is going to govern the whole state well." Ding Yi instructed Jin Shixi beside him, "I respect the heirs of the old lords of the six of you as the king, if you do a good job, let him go to Seoul to sit, it's not impossible; If you can't do well with Jeonju as a window city, don't think too much. ”

"The students are taught by the master." Although Jin Shixi was quite unhappy, he still replied honestly to Ding Yixing, and then went down to do his own errand.

Because he only leased Jeonju, about four million taels of silver, Ding Yi did not insist on the original statement that he wanted to lease the entire Jeolla Left Province, but only leased Jeonju for 99 years.

"Start conscription, let the local government send Ding Zhuang to Jeju Island." Ding Yi gave an order to Yang Shousui.

Jeju Island was also planned to be leased, but Li Jin didn't care about the small island, and directly said, "In the Tang Dynasty, it was originally the land of Tamna, a vassal state of China, and North Korea did not dare to take it." Maybe he really thinks so, maybe he wants to please Ding Yi, the people of this era, no more than later generations, are very dismissive of the islands hanging overseas.

In short, Jeju Island has been erected as a stone monument, and there is a joint payment between the Metropolitan Government of the Four Seas and the King of Joseon, which proves that it is the territory of China.

"I hope that these funds can be caught up, and the errand of teaching and governing the river can be done." Ding Yi looked at the fleet full of war reparations and sighed to himself in a low voice.
