Chapter 820
Li Xiao's advice to Sun Chengzong is to leave the chapter in the middle and not send it!
The best way to deal with this kind of recital, which is clearly politically intriguing, is to ignore it. It doesn't matter if you take it home and burn it on the table legs, just don't take it seriously.
For this kind of thing, of course Sun Chengzong, who is old and has become a refiner, knows how to deal with it. He came to Li Xiao to ask about this, maybe there was only one purpose. That is, he also wanted to test whether Li Xiao had any plans to be the emperor now.
The Ming Dynasty has not had an emperor for five years, and since Emperor Chongzhen, the term Emperor Zhu has slowly faded out of people's sight. The country cannot be without a king for a day, this famous saying imprinted in the hearts of the people is slowly losing its effectiveness.
If someone still says that the kingdom cannot be without a king for a day, someone will immediately come out to refute it. Now that the throne has been vacant for five years, isn't there nothing to do?
If the man does not know his face, he will say such nonsense that the heavens will bring calamity. An old man would come over and spit in his face. The queen asked him how old he was, and he knew if he knew what Daming looked like twenty years ago.
The warlords were fighting and the people were not making a living, the Tartars were invading unscrupulously in the north, and Wei Zhongxian in the court was like a mustard killing loyal ministers. What did the common people eat at that time? Guanyin soil, Niangniang incense.
The child eats and cannot digest it, and his belly is as big as a drum, and his head is as big as a gong. The people who starve to death every year can't be counted. As long as there is a big flood in Henan, the victims are like locusts who come out to flee the famine.
But now? Eat three meals a day, and it's all dry. The handsome Liao soldiers always won battles outside, and the invincible Tartars all shrank in Liaodong to farm and herd sheep.
Talking nonsense with your eyes open, are you fucking blind or blind?
Li Xiao is not worried about any political turmoil in the country, with the gradual maturity of a generation of young people, the living space of the Donglin Party has been further squeezed. No one learns things like the Four Books and the Five Classics, and children only read two subjects in school, teaching literacy in Chinese and computing in mathematics.
The Four Books and the Five Classics are gone, and no one mentions the extremely difficult philosophical questions of the study of the mind. Everything is going in a pragmatic direction.
Children who can calculate how much wheat their family produces in a year are far more popular than those who can recite poetry. The common people are the purest group of people, and they only like those who can bring them a comfortable and prosperous life. Emperor Taizu said well, sticks can't defeat the laws of economy. Whoever thinks about life all day long, it's Hitler.
The Donglin Party has no market now, and there will be no market in the future. They are a political force and academic faction that is gradually withdrawing from the stage of history, and all Li Xiao has to do is wait for them to die. I am only thirty-three years old this year, and my physical condition is not bad, so I can afford to wait for time.
Gu Dazhong also knew his situation, so he would desperately come out and make a fuss. If Li Xiaozhen cut them down, it would be a matter of what they wanted, and no matter what, it would be regarded as a name in history.
Lao Tzu doesn't care about you, and he doesn't even arrest you. Just let you watch, the old and pedantic Donglin Party gradually rotted in the eyes of the world, and finally disappeared.
As for them inciting the people to rebel, Li Xiao was even more unbelievable.
The people of China are the best people, and they will only rebel when they can't survive. In the peaceful days when there is food, meat to eat, and wine to drink, who will rebel when his brain is convulsive.
Is a rebellion without the participation of the people worthy of rebellion? Speaking of the great sky, it is worthy of being called a war.
Li Xiao did not go to Tianjin to take a boat, and followed Ao Ye south. He's going to wait for Master Man and the other person to come back!
Although Li Hao is young, he is also a member of the Li family. Over the years, he has traveled the world, and he can be regarded as quite experienced. Or transfer him back and show yourself this home.
Li Xiao did not doubt the loyalty of Master Man, and he did not doubt Cao Wenzhao's loyalty. Sun Chengzong and Zhang Huangyan are his staunch political allies, and as long as these people are there, Daming will have no problems.
Li Xiao stayed in the capital for more than 20 days, and frequently summoned many people. When Li Hao came back, Li Xiao knew that it was time for him to go.
With the addition of the latest ten ironclad ships, the Ming Navy already has enough ships to blockade the west coast of India.
The shipyards built over the years have finally come to fruition. As ships get bigger, sailboats rarely drift at sea. The 1st Division of Ao Canghai went to India on a 50,000-ton cargo ship. It was parked on the dock, it was really as high as a mountain, and it was awe-inspiring to look at.
Li Xiao needs to follow the last group of warships to the island of Ceylon. It is now the stronghold of the confrontation between the Ming and India, with daily freighters arriving on the island of Ceylon. By transporting goods as high as mountains to shore, the efficiency of sea transportation is brought into full play.
According to the agreement between Luzhu and Queen Zhangxi and Tiepu Sultan, supplies are smuggled into India every day. Mr. Wu is already feeling the pressure as more and more states refuse to pay taxes to Mumbai.
At this time, Wu Sangui could only verbally intimidate these states, because all his soldiers were forced to confront the Ming army and guard against the landing of the Ming army at any time. He did not have the strength to destroy so many nations.
"Big brother, you've been running around outside all year round, and there's no time to stop." Li Hao followed behind Li Xiao and looked listless when he walked. The railway to Shuzhong, and the last section of the railway have not been inspected clearly, but he was urgently recalled by his eldest brother.
I don't know if those people will be able to find a correct path after they leave. The railway from Hanzhong to Shuzhong needs to pass through countless steep sections.
Along the way, many bridges need to be built. Looking at the steep terrain, Li Hao knew that there must be dead people to build such roads, and there are many of them.
Sometimes, if you explore more accurately, you will lose a lot of deaths. Li Hao knew that there must be a foreigner in the construction of these dangerous road sections. But he still feels that human life is just this time, and if it is gone, it is really gone.
"What you said last night is actually a bit petty! If you build the wrong tunnel, you will die, and if you build a bridge that is too steep, you will die. But do you know that if something happens in the capital, how many people will die?
If you look at the bustle in front of you, you don't want these scenes to become devastated and full of fireworks. Help me take care of my home and don't let those people in the Donglin Party make trouble. This is your responsibility as a descendant of the Li family! Li Xiao said solemnly, and Li Hao had no choice but to do so. For him, the words of the eldest brother are holy decrees.
The carriage in which the brothers were riding was moving fast on the road. The tall buildings on the side of the road were quickly left behind. On the road to Tongzhou Railway Station, there are soldiers guarding every two meters.
"Knowing the eldest brother, I will take care of the family." Li Hao also knows the meaning of staying in the capital. In fact, as long as there is still one person in the Li family in the capital, no one in the Ming Dynasty will dare to make a mistake.
"Don't meddle in any government affairs, that's the world of the old foxes, you're too young......!" Li Xiao was talking, and suddenly he felt that the world was spinning.
His mouth and nose were filled with hot gases, and the carriage he was riding in seemed to be somersaulting. Li Xiao and Li Hao have become Lantern Festivals rolling in the carriage.
Outside it was already a mess, and countless people were running and shouting. Screams, swearing, whistles, footsteps mingled. Although Li Xiao's whole body was crushed by the broken carriage and could not move, it was still easy to lose sight of his eyes and ears.
"Fourth, how are you? Fourth! Fourth? Li Xiao saw Li Hao beside him, with blood on his head, and his head drooped and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead. There was a white flower on the shoulder, and if you looked closely, it was an ear.
His body was pressed by the carriage, and no matter how hard Li Xiao struggled, he couldn't break free.
At this time, gunshots rang out outside. Li Xiao was agitated, and the struggle became more and more intense. But no matter what, he couldn't lift a carriage. A bullet passed through the carriage and grazed Li Xiao's head and went out again. In terms of power, the shooting distance was close.
There was a lot of chaos outside for a long time, and then it slowly stopped.
The carriage was lifted up, and Shunzi dragged Li Xiao's armpits to drag Li Xiao out. Then he slapped Li Xiao on his body to see if there were any injuries.
"Fuck me alone, get the fourth child out, he's hurt." Li Xiao gritted his teeth with hatred and pushed Shunzi away.
Not far from the carriage, there was a mutilated corpse. The upper body is almost blown up, and the two legs of the lower body are still intact. There were people running around all around, and many guards were holding heavy shields to protect Li Xiaotuan.
There were constantly soldiers, shooting at the rooftops. At this time, if anyone accidentally puts his face in front of the window, he will definitely be greeted warmly by the bullet. The people in the guard regiment are not so particular, and his self-blame is to protect Li Xiao's safety. Now that someone has blown up Li Xiao's car, this face is a big loss.
Another bullet flew in and pierced through a layer of protective steel, but failed to penetrate the armor worn by the guards.
The chaotic gunfire rang out again, and through the gap in the protective steel plate, Li Xiao saw that the windows of a house facing the street were shattered.
"Handsome! The fourth master will get it out immediately, I don't know how many gunmen there are here, you hurry up. Shunzi didn't care so much at this time, and ordered the two soldiers to press Li Xiao on a stretcher and carry him away.
He was ambushed, and Li Xiao already understood. Someone jumped from a building facing the street with the help of a bomb, killing his own driver and the pack horse pulling the cart. Of course, it would be better if you could blow yourself up.
Unfortunately, after the man landed with the bomb on his back, his leg was broken. The bone stubble is pierced from the calf, and the look makes my heart tremble.
Of course, this is only the first step, and there will be many gunmen who will continue to shoot Li Xiao's car. The goal is much smaller, but the message is getting more accurate. Many gunmen fired at Li Xiao's car, and there was always a bullet that hit Li Xiao. As long as Li Xiao is killed, there will be many people who will be satisfied.
If you think about it with your ass, this is what the Donglin Party did. Whoever let Li Xiao not fall into their evil deeds, even a huge political turmoil carefully concocted by them was quietly resolved by Li Xiao. The secret piece was handed over, but it did not reach the queen mother in the palace, but fell into the hands of Li Yongfang.
When Li Yongfang was arresting people, he didn't expect this kind of thing to happen.
Li Xiao was sent to the army hospital as soon as possible, and when Junzi checked it, he found that Li Xiao's arm was cut open by shrapnel, and he was bleeding a lot, and his heavy tweed coat was soaked.
"Let's go and see how the fourth child is doing." The doctor treated Li Xiao's wound, this kind of wound is simple and simple, but it can be said that it will be very troublesome.
The first thing to see is whether the bullet has broken the bone, and the second is whether the bullet will cause infection.
"If you go back to Dashuai, you can rest assured that the fourth master is fine, but his leg is injured." Junko reported on the side.
"Hurt your leg? Take me to see it. Li Xiao remembered that when he was in the carriage, Li Hao seemed to be unconscious, and he called a few times, but he didn't answer himself.
"Handsome ......!" Shunzi still wanted to obstruct it, but when he saw Li Xiao's wolf-like eyes, he immediately took a step back in fright.
"Take me!" Li Xiao roared, and the people around him were like quails.
An unlucky nurse was caught, and Li Xiao walked into Li Hao's ward with his half-bandaged arm.
Li Hao was lying on the hospital bed, and a nurse was wiping his head with an alcohol cotton ball. There were already a lot of bloody alcohol cotton balls on the ground, and there were still alcohol cotton balls being thrown on the ground.
"How's he doing?" Li Xiao grabbed a doctor in a white coat and a mask.
"Dashuai!" The doctor was caught by Li Xiao and was stunned at first. When he turned around, he immediately shouted nervously.
It's okay now, everyone stopped what they were doing and gave Li Xiao a salute.
"Hurry up and save people, you tell me, how is my brother?" Li Xiao waved his hand irritably, and then grabbed the doctor's arm.
"The fourth master's head was hit by something in the carriage, and he bled a lot. However, this was not the most serious injury, when the bomb exploded, several pieces of shrapnel hit the fourth master's leg.
After our examination, it was confirmed that the fourth master's leg bone had been broken into four sections. If the recovery is not good, it is likely to ....... ”
"What will be?" Li Xiao shouted sharply.
"You may not be able to stand up." Startled by Li Xiao's loud drink, the doctor answered Li Xiao's question in fear. I don't have time to think about other things, this is the handsome man of the capital. The army of millions of tigers and wolves under the command of the Liao army can be called a shock.
"Dog's day! Dog day! Li Xiao was so angry that he kicked over the cart full of medical equipment. A lot of medical equipment and medicines were knocked over the ground.
"You listen to Lao Tzu, you must save my brother. If my brother can't wake up, don't even think about waking up. Li Xiao was a little angry, and pointed at the officer in charge and roared.
"No! Promise! I will definitely work hard, I will work hard! The doctor was shocked by Li Xiao's domineering spirit, and immediately replied in a hurry.
