Volume 1 The Talent of Heaven Coincides with Troubled Times Chapter 35 This is a murderous and unscrupulous island owner
Although Sun Zhaoyuan made up his mind with Emperor Yan, he still returned home worried. On the way, I kept thinking, "This is not an easy errand." Then if Li Yongding wanted to kill Prince De, how could he let me go alone. If Prince De and Li Yongding join forces, I will also be poisoned by Prince De. This chess is dead again. Nuyd, Nuyd, it seems that you will have to kill me in this life. ”
After arriving home, Sun Zhaoyuan asked Yu Yinqiao to pack his luggage. Yu Yin Qiao exclaimed, "What's the matter?" I'm going to run an errand far away. ”
Sun Zhaoyuan thought that if he didn't do well on this errand, he was separated from Yuyin Qiao Tianren forever, and after thinking about it, he still told her the original thing.
Sun Zhaoyuan said: "Qiaoqiao, you also pack your luggage, go back to Yanfu for the time being, and when I come back, you will come back." Otherwise, if you are alone in this huge capital, I can't rest assured. ”
Yu Yin Qiao said: "What kind of bastard are you talking about, I, Yu Yin Qiao, marry a chicken and a dog, and the husband is in danger, I will hide in a safe place alone, let you be in danger alone, I will be married to you, do you think I am such a person?" Everyone else is husband and wife, and they are birds of the same forest, and they fly separately when disaster comes, do you think I am also such a person. ”
Sun Zhaoyuan said: "Don't come nonsense, Qiao Qiao, this is going to the Hanging Island, it is dangerous and abnormal, that Li Yongding is the lord of the Hanging Island, who has been separating overseas, and resisting the Nie Er tribe who is not good at naval warfare with natural dangers, in order to show that he does not share the sky with the Nie Er tribe, he killed the minister of the Nie Er tribe who persuaded him to surrender a few years ago. This time, if Li Yongding wants to take the banner of persuasion to surrender the minister, then I will not come back, I am dead, you are not going to fall into the hands of thieves. ”
Yu Yin Qiao said: "Today I will say that I will say here, even if the hanging island is Longtan Tiger's Den, a sword mountain and a sea of fire, I am willing to accompany you." If you die, why should I live alone? If you want to die, everyone will die together, and there will be a companion on the road. ”
Sun Zhaoyuan felt a warm current in his heart, he knew that Yu Yin Qiao was very good to him, but he didn't expect that she was a person who was willing to accompany him to the sword mountain and the sea of fire. If you want to come to the world, this kind of wife is already very rare.
Sun Zhaoyuan knew that although Yu Yinqiao was a woman, she was also a person who did what she said, so he no longer persuaded her, but just hugged her hard and said, "In this life, I am also worth it." ”
Within a few days, Prince De rode on the road with Sun Zhaoyuan and Yu Yinqiao, accompanied by more than a dozen palace guards.
Prince De said with a smile: "Lord Sun is really interesting, he went out to run an errand for the saint and brought his wife, and he was not afraid that Li Yongding was a womanizer and bullied Mrs. Sun." ”
Before Sun Zhaoyuan could speak, Yu Yinqiao said: "He Li Yongding is the master of an island, and Xiang Spicy is also a person with a face and face, if he bullies a married woman, won't everyone in the world laugh at him, and how to govern the hanging island." I can think clearly as a little woman, how can Li Yongding not think clearly. The prince was too worried. ”
Prince De smiled again: "This time, the saint sent this king to the hanging island, and this king also wanted to bring a family member, but he just wanted to come here to be dangerous and abnormal, and this king didn't want to affect his family, so he only went on the road." I was very pleased to have Sun Shiyu to accompany me on the way. But he didn't want to, Sun Shiyu also brought his wife with him, so at a glance, this king is not at a loss. ”
When Sun Zhaoyuan heard Prince De's words, he said in his heart: "Prince De has lived in Huanhai for a long time, and Emperor Yan's desire to kill him through Li Yongding must have been suspected by him. And why did he send me with him, listen to his intentions, think that he has already guessed, so he said that my husband and wife accompanied him on the road, and he would not lose anything. ”
Sun Zhaoyuan said: "This trip to the Hanging Island is also a gift from the Holy Lord, so that the humble function and Prince De will go together to establish peace and recover the immortal merits of the Hanging Island, and I hope that the prince will treat it well and lead the ministers to take the road of fame in history." Sun Zhaoyuan just pretended not to know Prince De's intentions and covered up the past.
Prince De said: "This king doesn't know whether this road is the road that will go down in history or the road of Huangquan." Let's take a look and meet Li Yongding. If God really opens his eyes and the errand is done, the king hopes that he can live for the rest of his life, even if he goes to take care of the ancestral cemetery, it is a great blessing. ”
Sun Zhaoyuan said in his heart: "Prince De is testing me, if he really succeeds in persuading the hanging island, whether he can return to the dynasty safely." You have committed the felony of treason, and the Holy Lord's failure to execute you Ling Chi is already a matter of benevolence and righteousness to you, and Emperor Yan will not tolerate you. ”
Although Sun Zhaoyuan thought so, he still arched his hand and said: "Why does the prince think so, if the prince really recovers the hanging island, I am afraid that the saint will not reward the prince heavily, how can he let the prince take care of the cemetery." The prince laughed. ”
Prince De said: "I hope so." ”
This matter is not very urgent, the group is not in a hurry, along the way, Prince De in various ways to find out what Emperor Yan's intentions are for him, what intentions, Sun Zhaoyuan has found a way to round the past, without revealing flaws. After walking for about a month, I arrived at the boundary of Wang She Bigui in Nanyu, Jianzhou.
That She Bigui is the weakest of the three kings, but it is also the most arrogant. When the emperor divided the three kings, he actually only gave two pieces of territory, one in Qingqiu Prefecture and one in Xizhou, and She Bigui's grandfather She Xiong and Wu Jingdao were divided into Xizhou. Jianzhou is not densely populated, the products are not rich, and it is often plundered by Li Yongding's naval soldiers on the hanging island, so the power is the weakest among the three kings. And She Bigui has lived in the territory since he was a child, and throughout his life, he has lived a life of self-esteem, never taking others in his eyes, and his attitude is arrogant and abnormal. Even if the Nie Er clan was his sect master, it was only perfunctory, but he didn't look down on the Nie Er clan inside.
As soon as I arrived at the boundary of Shebigui, I saw a group of government officials waiting in the Yingguan Pavilion. Sun Zhaoyuan knew that this was the honor guard of each state to welcome the ministers. It stands to reason that when it comes to Jianzhou, it should be greeted by She Bigui and his subordinate officials, but looking at this honor guard formation, there are not many people, and it is not very like the style of the king of Bian.
Seeing Prince De and Sun Zhaoyuan and his party, an official in his forties came out of the Yingguan Pavilion, Sun Zhaoyuan saw that he was wearing a second-grade official, and he knew that this person was Tang Zhishang, the governor of Jianzhou.
Tang Zhishang led everyone to make a big salute to welcome Prince De and Sun Zhaoyuan and his party.
Prince De was a little displeased, and said, "Lord Tang, why didn't you see Nanyu Wang She Bigui." ”
Tang Zhishang said: "The king of Nanyu is still in Zhangcheng Mansion, saying that he wants to deal with affairs. ”
Prince De said: "What matter can be more important than welcoming Prince Qincha?" ”
Tang Zhishang was usually very dissatisfied with She Bigui, and took the opportunity to take the medicine and said: "Before, Xiaguan sent Prince Mingde to the king of Nanyu to build a state and go to Hanging Island, thinking that the king of Nanyu and the lower officials would greet Prince De together, but he didn't want the king of Nanyu to say: 'He is the prince, and I am also the prince, why does this king want to welcome him, but it is not him, the prince, who came to see this king. Therefore, the lower officials had to come alone to greet Prince De and Sun Shiyu. ”
Prince De had never received such an insult in his life, and immediately said: "This foreign surname is a family dog, not the emperor is benevolent, and he has rewarded She Xiong, the head of the minion, with the title of a frontier prince, and his She family is just an ordinary official, and he can still be a prestige on the head of the prince." Besides, the prince is more than the king of the border, and the title is still two levels higher, and this kind of wild talk can be regarded as a crime of the following. Master Tang, can you take this matter into his account? ”
Tang Zhishang said: "The secret fold has been written, hurry up and whip it, and play it to the saint." ”
Prince De said: "Only in this way can this person's arrogance be shaken." If the Holy Father has any criticism of this rebellion, he must send someone to report it secretly to the king. ”
Sun Zhaoyuan said in his heart: "Prince De is also an old treacherous and cunning, he wants to use Tang Zhishang to secretly play the matter of the King of Nanyu insulting him, and introduce Emperor Yan's attitude towards him, if Emperor Yan ignores this matter, it means that Emperor Yan has murderous intentions towards him in his heart, so he also pretends to be nothing to do with this kind of offense to the emperor's relatives and relatives, if Emperor Yan is angry about this matter, it means that he still has a status in Emperor Yan's heart, and his rebellion must not be exposed." ”
Tang Zhishang said: "The lower officials obey the order." I want to come to Shengshang Zhu Pi and send it on the 20th, at that time, I am afraid that Prince De is already on the hanging island, and the lower officials will arrange for the spies on the hanging island to report to Prince De. ”
Prince De said, "That's very good. Be sure to report in detail. It's just that the hanging island is so far away from the mainland, how can you have a spy to report to this king. ”
Tang Zhishang said: "The prince doesn't know, although Li Yongding occupies the hanging island, all the supplies on the island have to be transported from outside the island, or from the island of Japan, or from Oceania, or from Anbian country, and even smuggled from the coast of the mainland. The secret agent of the lower official was arranged in the passenger ship. It also bought some islanders on the hanging island to help find out information, and it was not easy to be discovered. ”
Prince De said: "In this way, Li Yongding will rely on sea transportation to survive and breathe, if the sea transportation is cut off, then Li Yongding will surrender." ”
Tang Zhishang said: "The truth is true, it's just that I am not good at naval warfare, and there are not many warships, how can I seal the vast sea area." ”
Prince De said: "In this way, Nai Li Yongding is unstoppable." ”
Tang Zhishang said: "That Li Yongding, although the soldiers are strong and strong, and there is also maritime trade to transport them, but he is not a piece of discus. That Li Yongding's position was obtained by killing his brother. Back then, Li Yongqiang successfully captured Hanging Island, Bamboo Island, Jinju Island and many islands along the coast, and resisted stubbornly based on the superiority of naval warfare. I looked at the ocean and sighed, but I couldn't do anything. But I didn't want to, but the hanging island had its own infighting. Li Yongding is Li Yongqiang's eldest son, and his mother is Li Yongqiang's main wife, Dong, Li Yongqiang also attaches great importance to this son, and arranged for him to lead the army to guard Zhudao and Jinju Island, and ordered the daughter of Tang Xianyue, the daughter of Tang Xianyue, who is dignified in appearance and docile personality, is a beautiful girl, but this Li Yongding, let the beauty go, but to hook up with his fourth brother and nurse, and gave birth to an illegitimate child. Tang Xianyue was angry at his actions, and scolded Li Yongqiang in a book: 'If you have a son like this, how can you govern the country? Li Yongqiang was furious and ordered his brother Li Tai to go to Zhudao to kill Dong, Li Yongding, Li Yongding's son and nurse. Li Tai didn't dare, but just killed the nurse and the illegitimate child. It didn't take long for Li Yongqiang to die of anger. Seeing that Li Yongqiang was gone, the people of the Hanging Island supported Li Yongding's brother as the lord of the Hanging Island. Li Yongding was not convinced, so he led the army to kill back to the main island of Hanging Island, killed a group of people, etc., and then won Hanging Island. After this chaos, the power of the hanging island was much less than before, the number of soldiers was reduced by half, and because Li Yongding's brother was a key figure in the trade economy of the hanging island, the trade between the hanging island and the island was much less. Now is the time of weakness. It's just that Li Yongding, who can do the thing of killing his brother and uncle, is very ruthless, Prince De and Sun Shi read about the hanging island, but they must be careful and pay attention to everything. ”
Prince De and Sun Zhaoyuan said, "Lord Xie Tang reminds."
