Princess Jinhua held the incense in her fingers, bowed to Yu Tongyuan, and looked at the box under the ancestral spiritual seat, which was a bright yellow brocade box.

The brocade box is embroidered with two small characters, Hongwu.

She respectfully and piously picked up the box, this box was given by Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang to the Yu family's Danshu iron coupon, Danshu is written by cinnabar, Danshu iron coupon is Taizu Chrysostom.

Zhu Yuanzhang's royal pen inscription, the content of it has been cooked by her back, word for word, she looked at it for a long time, when can Yu's family room reproduce the glory of Hongwu.

Princess Jinhua glanced at Jiading: "Go and call Yu Zheng and ask him to see me in the back garden." ”

"Big sister." Yu Tongyuan's son, Yu Zheng came over to Princess Jinhua and said, "I heard that Zhen Guogong is coming to Chaohu Lake to select a water master this time?" ”

Princess Jinhua was stunned, the news of this second room is really well-informed, I knew it so quickly, it seems that the second room is prepared.

"Yes, Zhenguo Gong went to me today to talk about this, Brother Zheng don't worry, I will let Zheng'er entertain Zhen Guogong, and Changfang should respond to the imperial court's anti-Japanese guards." Princess Jinhua seemed to see the meaning of the second room, and reminded euphemistically.

Yu Tongyuan's son Yu Zheng didn't want to say more at the moment, after all, the face of the long house was to be given, so he touched his beard and said: "It's so good, it's just that the eldest sister has never been in good health, so it's better to leave the matter of entertaining the prince of Zhenguo to me." ”

How could Princess Jinhua let go of this opportunity to let Changfang regain the glory of the court, so she didn't say anything more, turned around and left the Yu family ancestral hall.

"Uh......h Knock~~"

The horn of the Chaohu Naval Division's fleet sounded, and Cheng Yuan sat in the pavilion, looking at several fleets on the water in the distance.

He knew that this was the fleet of the Yu family's second room, and welcomed him with a horn.

Although he didn't understand, the second room suddenly invited him to a banquet.

But it is also a pleasure to be valued by the second room of the Yu family, which means that he has a few more chances of winning by combining the Yu family's water masters.

Cheng Yuan put his hands behind his back: "You say, how does the long room compare with the fleet of the second room?" ”

Song Jing said: "Guogong, don't you want to send the Yu family's house to the anti-Japanese guards?" Why did you refuse Princess Jinhua again, and now you are asking the second room of the Yu family, and your subordinates really don't understand what you mean. ”

Faced with the inquiries of his subordinates, Cheng Yuan did not answer.

The Yu family has been in business in recent years, and they are very keen on the research of new ships, which is suitable for them to improve their fleet.

It is also conducive to the anti-Japanese guards, and the fleet of the Yu family's house is down.

Yu Tonghai's long house is currently the weakest among the Yu family's water masters, and they need to take credit for consolidating their own family's position in the imperial court and Chaohu water division.

At this time, Cheng Yuan reached out to help, and he was also the easiest to receive the big house into the anti-Japanese guards.

Yu Tongyuan's second room, among the children and grandchildren, is the mainstay of the Chaohu Water Division, with the largest number of people and the largest fleet, which is very strict.

If Cheng Yuan can join the second room of the Yu family into the anti-Japanese guards, he will invisibly help Zhu Di cut a hole in the iron plate of the Yu family, not the teacher of the family, but the teacher of the imperial court.

Yu Tongyuan's third room died at the hands of Zhu Di because of the Battle of Jingnan Baihegou.

If Zhu Di personally orders, the Yu family's sailors will also be dispatched.

But Sanfang always had a pimple in his heart.

Zhu Di also understood this matter that he turned a blind eye because the emperor didn't like others to disobey him, but he needed to consolidate the Yongle Dynasty.

The three rooms of the Yu family are also happy, and the court will not arrange anything, and they will not take the initiative to ask for their lives.

The Yu family has the most experience in sending troops, and has participated in the suppression of Japanese bandits and water bandits, and has special experience in water warfare.

Cheng Yuan held his chin and thought before thinking.

He wanted to integrate Yu Tonghai's juniors, but he wanted to capture the old and make Princess Jinhua think that he would not choose from the long house, but cherished this opportunity even more.

The juniors of Yu Tongyuan, the second room, also invited themselves to a banquet to watch the fleet today in order to perform in front of Zhu Di this time.

The lake breeze is cool, the second room of the Yu family, Yu Tongyuan's son Yu Zheng asked people to set up a board, and immediately led people to the dock to meet Cheng Yuan and said with a smile:

"Zhen Guogong, it's really better to hear than to see, I have long heard that Guogong is famous, and today I am really fortunate to see a real person in the land of Chaohu.

Guogong has worked hard all the way, and he has been busy these days, and today he has time to be lively with Zhen Guogong. ”

Cheng Yuan has never met or had anything to do with Yu Tongyuan's son Yu Zheng, but looking at this posture, he also hurriedly smiled and arched his hand: "Don't dare to be." ”

Chaohu Lake is the old nest of the Yu family, and when you enter Chaohu Lake, it is not a random communication with the imperial court, and it is somewhat impossible to spread the news to the outside world.

But he glanced at Shi Kai and signaled that there were some things that he could tell Zheng He to them, Ji Gang's Jinyi Wei naturally couldn't believe it too much, but Zheng He could believe it.

After getting Shi Kai's affirmation, Cheng Yuan sat down without any scruples.

At the beginning, under Yu Zheng's introduction, he greeted the sailors and soldiers in the second room one by one, Cheng Yuan didn't like to greet him very much, but when he met for the first time, he was too cold, and people would think that he was putting on an official show.

After Cheng Yuan said a few words, he listened to everyone bragging about things, and when he needed to respond, he picked up the wine glass and smiled at everyone.

The Yu family's second room also has a large population, which is more than the long house, but he only needs to know Yu Zheng.

Yu's family room is the water master who thinks it is best to reform and integrate the anti-Japanese guards, so the goal is Yu's family room.

The second room is also good, but it is difficult to change their hearts, they will not be very obedient, and they came here today at the request of the second room, just to use the second room to create a sense of tension for the long room.

Let Princess Jinhua think that she wants to choose a second room.

As for the three rooms, it doesn't matter if you have prejudices about the upstarts in Jingnan, you can have three rooms or not.

After a few glasses of wine, the main course begins to serve.

Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, the Yu family is a duck in the water, of course, eating more seafood, fish, crab and shrimp, porpoise, all made very delicious.

The wine is made from the fruit of Chaohu Lake, and Cheng Yuan tasted a few sips and felt that it was very suitable for his taste.

"The matter of resisting the Japanese defense is well known."

Halfway through eating, Yu Zheng began to get into the middle of the topic.

Cheng Yuan continued: "You all know that last year, in eastern Zhejiang, Shandong coastal and other places, the Ming Dynasty suffered a loss.

If the court suffers a loss, it will not be far off, the key is the people, and the people's confidence in the imperial court's sailors.

Even because of the matter of the sailor, my father was framed by someone, but it was just a trivial matter, thanks to His Majesty's trust in me, I got by.

But about the Japanese Invaders, His Majesty has already stated in the main hall that he will cut down the Japanese Invaders again, so when looking for a sailor who can stand with the Japanese Invaders, the Chaohu Yu family is the most important thing for His Majesty.

It's just that the Japanese are cunning, in order to better resist the coastal Japanese invaders, my father and His Majesty consulted to train the Japanese guards in Chaohu, Taihu Lake and Shandong and other places.

This anti-Japanese guard is not the same as the usual sailor, focusing on the defects of the Japanese, so this time in addition to the water selection, it also brought His Majesty's attention and expectations for the Yu family. ”

The Yu family is proud of their own territory and the strongest among the Daming Water Divisions, but Cheng Yuan and they don't dare to offend, after all, they want to eat on Yongle's territory.

Coupled with Cheng Yuan's words, the Yu family at the table was very happy, no matter who sat on the throne, it was an honor to be valued by the imperial court.

Yu Zheng said: "Zhenguo Gong is polite, His Majesty has also sent a decree on the matter of resisting Japanese guards, and we also want to discuss it with you, but there has been no decision."

Since the Guogong is here, these things will be arranged by the Guogong. ”
