When he walked out of the capital, Li Xiao had a feeling of liberation. Finally, there is no need to deal with those extremely smart bureaucrats in the capital, and Li Xiao feels that his brain cells are obviously not enough these days in the capital.

It's all old foxes! There have been several times, as long as I made a mistake, I guess I would be buried in the capital. Although he was happy in the capital, the murderous intent hidden in it was indeed terrifying. It is no exaggeration to say that this trip belongs to nine deaths!

However, when Ao Canghai and Xu Xianchun were separated, they were inseparable, and they actually shed a few tears. Maybe the cadres of the judicial system have a love affair, but Li Xiao looks like a huge back mountain.

It is difficult to understand the friendship between Ao Canghai and Xu Xianchun, Xu Xianchun can be regarded as an absolute villain in the history books. belongs to the kind of people who are so bad that they are bubbling, Yang Lian was nailed to death by him with a big red-hot nail into his head.

However, what Li Xiao saw Xu Xianchun was more real than in the history books, this guy was philistine, greedy, and good at using power for personal gain. With all of this, it seems far-fetched to say that he is a villain, as most officials have been like this in those days.

You are a leader or a corrupt official, your colleagues are corrupt officials, and your subordinates are fucking corrupt officials. In this environment, if you are not greedy or possessive, you are simply going against the entire bureaucracy. In this excellent corrupt official collective, people who are too alternative can't get along!

At the same time as being sick, this guy seems to have another kind of personality.

Speak of righteousness and credibility! The specific performance is to collect money and do things, and will never eat money twice. As long as it's a buddy's business, it's definitely a knife in both sides. If there is difficulty, it will be done, and if there is no difficulty, it will be done.

Such a contradictory personality exists harmoniously in a body. Li Xiao now feels very confused, the good people in the history books are all that virtue, and the bad people in the history books are this virtue. The stupid emperor is actually a black-bellied man, what is a loyal minister, and what is a traitor. Now Li Xiao can't figure it out!

This trip to the capital, what touched Li Xiao the most was subversion. All historical understandings were subverted during this trip to Beijing. There is nothing about justice, justice, or morality that is entangled in officialdom. There is only one eternal relationship in officialdom, and that is interests.

For the sake of profit, the bad bubbling Cui Chengxiu can cooperate with Wang Wenyan, who is so good that he bursts the pulp. For the sake of interests, Wei Zhongxian can actually launch a charge against the entire civilian-bureaucratic group.

"What do you kid think?" Ao Canghai saw Li Xiao's appearance and pushed it.

"Nothing! Sometimes, it's really not clear what is a good guy and what is a bad guy. In front of you is Tianjin Wei! In order to get on the ship as soon as possible, Li Xiao chose Tianjin Wei to get on the ship. The distance from Beijing to Tianjin Wei is much closer than to Shanhaiguan. And Tianjin Wei also has a seaport, which is still a good deep-water port. Li Xiaoren was still in the capital, so he sent someone to Shanhaiguan to let Liu Laoliu transfer to Tianjin Wei.

"Your head is a lot, what is a good person? What is good to you is a good person, what is a bad person? What is bad for you is the bad person. Think about this, think about that, and use it for a ball. I know you don't like Xu Xianchun, but I don't think Lao Ao is good.

This man has a bad heart, but he is right for whom. I still have nothing to say to us, as for playing bad thoughts on others, don't worry about it. There are so many people in the world, can you manage it? ”

Being good to yourself is a good person, and being bad to yourself is a bad person. Ao Ye's values are very simple, but they are so effective! These things in the world of the family and the country have never existed in Ao Ye's dictionary.

said that it was close to Tianjin Wei, but in fact it was three days away. Li Xiao estimated that the disappearance of Governor Zhu should not have been discovered yet, and it was his own world to board the sea ship. Li Xiao vowed never to go to the capital again, that place is too complicated, and he still has a long way to go if he wants to be a political novice.

"Big boss, are we going to Shandong or back to the island?" Liu Laoliu stood behind Li Xiao with his waist hunched. Since he was repaired by Li Xiao because of cowardice, this guy seems to have wilted a lot, and the whole person doesn't seem to have any spirit.

"Lao Liu! You are the old brother I brought to the island from Liaodong, and the guns are flying on the battlefield. Everyone has it when they are cowardly, but you can't! You're the captain and the big guys are looking at you. If I don't dispose of you, then how can I bring this soldier with me in the future? In the future, we will have more and more transport ships here, and it is better for you to drive a transport ship. ”

"Knowing that the big boss, I was instigated when Lao Liu was dying. You don't have anything to say about it, it's rare to trust me. If you didn't say it, Lao Liu, the boatman, will definitely drive it for you. If there is a war in the future, you will look at Lao Liu. If I lose face, how can I earn it back. ”

"In that case, let's go to Shandong. By the way, did you stay on the boat at Shanhaiguan? There are still thousands of people in Manye, if you keep a few small sampans, you know Manye's temper. ”

"How could it! Just bring these two ships, and leave the rest to Master Man. The people who sail the boat are looking for reliable ones, so you can rest assured! ”

Starting from Tianjin Wei, Li Xiao went directly to Laizhou. It had been said in advance that Chen Fu was waiting for him in Laizhou.

When they arrived at the sea of Laizhou, Chen Fu's boat came up. It's still the same festive face, but with a little more wrinkles. When people reach age, these wrinkles are added one by one. As long as it grows, it will be difficult to calm down.

"Hahaha! I know that you kid is not simple, and you actually made such a big move in the capital. My Admiral will hold a banquet in Laizhou to give you a pick-up! Chen Fu squinted his eyes with a smile and slapped Li Xiao's shoulder fiercely.

"How good is this, by the way, Lord Shen is here. Our Lord Mao is also here, and we always want to let Master Mao meet my maternal uncle. ”

"It's coming! Here it comes! Not only Lord Shen came, but also Sun Yuanhua, the governor of Denglai, came. Master Sun is very curious about you, and he is clamoring to see you. ”

Chen Fu hugged Li Xiao very affectionately and came to a big hug. When people are not paying attention, he whispers, "Go to the bow of the boat and talk." ”

"Old Chen, this is my first time in Laizhou, can you introduce me to the scenery of Laizhou?" Li Xiao pulled Chen Fu to the bow of the boat very enthusiastically, and at the same time gestured to Ao Canghai.

"Brothers, my lord has brought some souvenirs from the capital to the Admiral. A few of you will go to the cabin with me to have a look, and then arrange for someone to unload the cargo. There are several things that are very expensive, you have to look carefully, it would be a pity to break them. Seeing that the servant behind Chen Fu wanted to follow, Ao Canghai immediately walked over and pulled the person back.

I heard that it was a gift for Chen Hailong, and these people had no choice but to follow Ao Canghai down the cabin.

"What's going on?" Li Xiao was a little dazed, and he didn't understand what Chen Fu was doing.

"Hey! What to say! My family is a little taboo about you, you have developed too fast in the past few years. In fact, this is not a big deal, and the position of the old man can still be maintained. The old man only asked you if you offended someone in the capital. ”

"What's wrong?"

"My family Admiral still wanted to have a good talk with you yesterday, if you don't interfere with the interests of the Chen family, forget it. But last night, two people came to the capital. It's very mysterious, and the adults in my family have changed. I want to kill you and Lord Mao during today's reception banquet! ”

"Someone from the capital?" Li Xiao's head was running rapidly, and he offended a few people in the capital. Li Sancai was so angry with him that he vomited blood, and the two sons of Yushi Huang Zunsu were abolished by him.

After thinking about it, Huang Zunsu didn't have the power to direct Chen Hailong. Then this person is about to come out, either Zhao Nanxing or Li Sancai. These two old bastards have always worn a pair of pants, and they are big bosses in the Donglin Party. Many times, Shoufu Ye Xianggao also has to respect the two of them!

"Thank you Chen Lao Gaoyi, Li Xiao believes in your words! It's just that Li Xiao still has to ask, why? "Chen Fu is the old steward of Chen Hailong's family for two generations, why did he tell himself this?

"Hey......! During the Chinese New Year, my old brother brought a letter. Speaking of the things on your island, the old man really yearns for your island. Don't tell you what you said, this Chen family is also intrigued. Although I, Chen Fu, am the chief steward, I am still a minion. As long as the master wants to pick it up, he can clean me up with a word. No matter how much I have accumulated, no matter how much my children and grandchildren prosper. It's just the master's minions!

I, Chen Fu, am old, and I don't want to live this kind of intrigue anymore. One day, I will be able to live a carefree life on your island like my old brother. Then the old man has no regrets in this life! ”

"The door of Phi Island is always open to Chen Lao. Feel free to bring your family to Koh Phi whenever you wish. You can rest assured, everything will be supported by me. To put it bluntly, Chen Fu just doesn't want future generations to carry the status of a minion. The fisherman can remove his status as a craftsman by going to Phi Island, and he Chen Fu can naturally get rid of his slavery by going to Phi Island.

"It's good to have your words, my brother's affairs are ahead, I believe what you say." Chen Fu grabbed Li Xiao's hand and shook it hard.

"Governor Sun Yuanhua of Denglai is in Laizhou, you can go and ask him to preside. Although my admiral is rampant, he also has to give the governor face. ”

"Old Chen, don't worry, I, Li Xiao, will go to the Nahongmen banquet for a while tonight. When you go ashore, you quietly gather your family, and if things change, go straight to the dock and board the boat. ”

"This ......! My Admiral has ......! ”

"Don't worry, I have a solution. You can return to your Admiral as normal! Li Xiao's mysterious smile made Chen Fu a little confused.

Could it be that this thug brother has other trump cards?

It was getting dark, and the boats on the pier were slightly undulating with the waves. Li Xiao and Ao Canghai walked off the warship with more than a dozen guards, mounted their warhorses and walked towards Chen Hailong's mansion. Along the way, there were not only people to guide the way, but also soldiers to escort them behind.

Soon, under the guidance of the officers and soldiers, Li Xiao came to Chen Hailong's mansion. The mansion of the Admiral of Shandong Navy is really unusual, and the copper nails that stretch across the five elements shine in the lamplight. Look up a black plaque to build the Jinghai Marquis Mansion.

In front of the door, there were two rows of tall officers and soldiers, each holding a tiger's head and waist knife and a nail. The old housekeeper Chen Fu stood at the door, and when he saw Li Xiao coming, he hurriedly saluted.

"Brother Xiao, my family has been waiting inside for a long time, please!" Chen Fu made a gesture of please, and Li Xiao smiled at Chen Fu and walked in. The guards behind him tried to follow in, but were stopped by the guards in front of the door.

"Wait here!" Li Xiao commanded and walked inside with Ao Canghai.

When I entered the middle gate and came to the hall, I saw Chen Hailong standing at the door of the hall in a brocade civilian dress. Seeing Li Xiao and Ao Canghai walking in under the guidance of Chen Fu, they immediately greeted them.

"The two of you are invited, I haven't seen you for a long time. Why didn't you see Lord Mao? ”

"Huh! My Lord Mao was a little seasick, and he couldn't get off the boat, so he could only come to the banquet on behalf of Lord Mao. Please forgive me, Lord Admiral! ”

"Oh, I see, this strong man is ......!" Chen Hailong had never seen Ao Canghai, and when he saw Ao Canghai's fierce face, he couldn't help but look up and down.

"This is the captain of Zhaoxin personally appointed by His Majesty, and his surname is Ao Canghai. Ao Ye! This is the Admiral Chen I mentioned to you! Li Xiao enthusiastically introduced the two people.

"Mark Ao Canghai, I've seen Lord Admiral." Ao Canghai clumsily stepped forward to salute!

"Huh! At first glance, he is a good man who can kill Tartars, please inside! Inside please! Chen Hailong smiled and made a gesture of please.

The three of them entered the hall, where a tiger-skin chair was placed in the middle of the hall. There were two rows of tables on each side, and Li Xiao and Ao Canghai were seated under Chen Hailong. Judging from the seats, this is taking Li Xiao as a guest.

"You may be seated! It's a pity that Master Mao can't come! These are Chen's subordinates, and I will introduce them to you later. They are all good men floating on the sea! ”

"My lord entrusted Li to bring some small gifts to the Admiral." After Li Xiao finished speaking, he waved his hand at Ao Canghai, and Ao Canghai immediately flattened the box he had been carrying.

"Oh, Lord Mao also brought me a gift. There is labor! There is labor! "Hearing that there were gifts, Chen Hailong was very interested. I couldn't see clearly by the light, so I had to go down the steps to get closer.

The box opened, revealing a few black objects inside.

Li Xiao took one in his hand and smiled at Chen Hailong: "We don't have anything good on the island, but this firearm is quite sharp." This grenade, in particular, is simply a weapon for melee jumpers. This time, our Lord Mao sent 200 pieces, this is a sample, please take a look. ”

"Oh! What a good thing! "Chen Hailong has long known that the firearms in Phi Dao are sharp. When I saw it today, I was immediately excited. Soldiers! Much more interested in weapons than in women!

Li Xiao took out a grenade and stuffed it into Chen Hailong's hand, pointed to the grenade and introduced: "Lord Admiral, look at this ring, just pull this ring, and then throw it out." This thing is going to explode! Even if it's in the water, it will explode. ”

"Can you explode in the water?" Chen Hailong asked with a glare.

"Of course!"
