Chapter 153: Living in the Moment, Why Not Be Greedy?

Luo Bingliang looked at those powerful men who were flushed and applauded for Zeng Guang, and suddenly a trace of enlightenment rose.

Zeng Guang is not a master, everyone including the powerful people know that Zeng Guang just knows what the powerful people want to hear, which is why he can go around peddling and peddling those reasonable.

The powerful people are not missing a string in their heads, the powerful people just need recognition, and someone has to tell them personally, you are doing the right thing, you are doing well, and you will continue to do it.

Everyone is just taking what they need, Zeng Guang needs money to maintain his so-called lectures, and the powerful people need someone to say what they dare not say in their hearts.

Zeng Guang collected the cash, and the folds on his face were all laughing, and he didn't have the sense of detachment of the worldly master before.

And Luo Bingliang continued to wander around the painting boat, looking at the various states of the world.

The women were in pain but forced to laugh, the high-rollers were extraordinarily arrogant, spilling wine all over the floor, but they didn't say anything about mercy, this was a ship of twisted desires, it was so beautiful, and so ugly.

Many of the Goryeo Hie have begun to slowly accept and enjoy this depravity and sinking, gulping down the wine and picking up the only fig leaf on their bodies, not caring who is behind them, just enjoying the indulgence and pleasure of this moment.

Maybe for these Gao Liji, there is no difference between the people behind them and the dogs, their lives seem to be like this, Congliang is an unattainable dream for the prostitutes of the Ming Dynasty, and for Gao Liji, it is not even a dream, since the day they were raised to become Gao Liji, they are destined to die without anyone caring.

Live in the moment, why not be greedy?

The sun has set, the sea is golden, under the rippling golden waves, occasionally there will be fish jumping out of the water, and then smashing heavily in the water, leaving a golden splash, the painting boat in the wind blowing, slowly moving forward, scratching the water waves, leaving ripples, this scene is beautiful.

A woman walked to Luo Bingliang's side, held her hair, and said with a smile: "The afterglow of the sunset is strongly colored, the clouds are half a day and the sky is red, what a beautiful sunset." ”

Luo Bingliang frowned and looked at the woman beside him, and said suspiciously: "Shouldn't you go to accompany the high roller?" ”

This woman, Luo Bingliang knows, the leader of this ship, belongs to the kind of woman who plays a tune when she is interested, has no interest, and does not come out of the room for a day, is a famous top brand in the entire Jiangnan, and does not accept customers, this kind of non-acceptance is to be sold at a price.

Some cheap bones still like this style, the higher they are, the more obsessed they are.

In fact, the main thing is to look at the price, the leader and the following glamorous goods are not the same way, the top brand of this Qinglou, I want to make enough money to marry, husband and children.

"Where do they have the dignity of a military master?" Oiran said with a smile, "Where did the military master come from?" The owner specially told me, don't put that high shelf, serve well, and you will have a lifetime of glory and wealth. ”

"Don't inquire about things you shouldn't worry about." Luo Bingliang said calmly: "It's not a person all the way. ”

Oiran didn't care very much, let the sea breeze blow his sleeves, adjusted his angle, let himself be the most beautiful, and showed Luo Bingliang before he continued: "When this is on the boat, is the military master so pure-hearted? Look at them, like livestock mating. What a dirty scene, I want to take advantage of the military master's way to go ashore, is the military master willing to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade to take a hand? ”

"I should be a piece of jade, a jade that hasn't been carved yet."

Luo Bingliang sneered and said: "Don't, Sun Keyi bought you from the tooth shop for a lot of silver, I don't have so much silver, redeem your body, why should I go." ”

Luo Bingliang left after speaking, without any attachment.

It is true that the Ti Qi who followed him on the boat are all henchmen, even if Luo Bingliang does something, the henchmen will not say it, let alone Sun Keyi, everyone maintains a tacit understanding.

On this ship of depravity, the desires in the heart will be infinitely magnified, but Luo Bingliang doesn't eat this set, if he takes Sun Keyi's woman, he will have to appease Sun Keyi, and in the future, Sun's tax, will it be checked or not?

Yuan Fu of the Ming Dynasty repeatedly told the little emperor many times, what is the disadvantage of bribery, what is the disadvantage of appeasement, Luo Bingliang, as a horseman, knowingly committed a crime, and death may be a luxury, and even the son of His Majesty as a sparring partner.

His child is only thirteen years old, and he is already the second best in the world in the youth group.

Luo Bingliang, as a father, can't pit his son outside because of the lower half of his body, right? Therefore, Sun's taxes have to be checked, so he can't stretch out this hand.

Oiran sorted out her clothes a little embarrassed, pretending to be pitiful, it didn't seem to be of any use to this military master, she looked at Luo Bingliang's back, sighed heavily, and looked at the sea, she still had to be on this fallen ship, continue to sink, but I don't know if she still has the strength to save enough money to redeem herself.

Luo Bingliang has been looking for any other henchmen besides Zeng Guang, but the price of this painting boat is too expensive, and there is no one except Zeng Guang, after the ship docked at Yuegang, Zeng Guang disappeared into the crowd of people as quickly as possible.

Zeng Guang is very good at hiding, but Luo Bingliang is even more able to find it.

In a corner where no one was around, Luo Bingliang grabbed Zeng Guang, threw him into the hydrofoil spaceship, and escorted him to Beijing.

The dignified soul hooker, can you still make the cooked Zeng Guang fly away with wings?

As a horseman, Luo Bingliang always completes his tasks in the fastest time, so as to get a little favor and atone for Luo Sigong's lack of deference.

When Luo Bingliang was in Beijing, he said to his son more than once, "It's the emperor, if something happens, the whole family will die!"

But Luo Sigong is a donkey, the emperor asked him to make a dead hand, and he really made a dead hand.

Luo Bingliang was in Yuegang, and met Luo Gongchen, the governor of the Metropolitan Salary Hall and coastal defense, and then learned a lot of interesting things under Luo Gongchen's introduction.

For example, He Xinyin was lecturing in Fujian before, he came from Songjiang Mansion, and after lecturing in Fujian, he returned to his hometown of Ji'an, Jiangxi, and was almost caught by Pan Jitao, so he fled to Huguang.

After Luo Bingliang saw the coastal defense inspection of the Penghu Inspection Division, he learned an astonishing news, that is, Jilong Island is very large and has many trees, which is very suitable for shipbuilding.

There are many people in the Ming Dynasty, there are many firewood needed, and it is a very common thing to get paid for logging, firewood, rice, oil and salt, firewood is the head, when firewood is the main fuel for life, in fact, there are not too many trees that can be used for shipbuilding in southern Fujian, and there are also in those places that are not good for logging.

And now, less than a hundred miles away from the Penghu Inspection Division, Jilong Island is very large, there are many trees, and the sextant observation sent by the imperial court can clearly see that the southernmost point of Jilong Island has a ground angle of 22 Β°, and the northernmost point of the North Pole is 25.4 Β°

Zhangzhou is 24.6 degrees and Nanping is 24.5 degrees, which means that in the distance between north and south, there are at least 800 li of land, and these 800 li land has the timber needed for shipbuilding at present.

"It's hard." Luo Bingliang sighed a little emotionally, his trip to the painting boat, there was some confusion, that is, the decree of the imperial court, whether it is telling the truth or a lie, doing good or bad things, will be regarded as telling a lie and doing bad things, any decree, the powerful people, and even most of the people, are the first to oppose it.

For example, the hydrofoil sailboats of the Penghu Inspection Division have surveyed the big island in the southeast, and if the imperial court recruits the people, it will be a disaster that exhausts the people's strength.

For example, it is obviously more conducive to the clean-up and encroachment of the small people, and it does not get widespread support in Nanya, and the clean-up, clean-up and encroachment, and return of land are completely to give the small people a chance to breathe, but the people seem to have decided that taking refuge in the right to take refuge is the more correct answer.

It's hard to do things.

"No matter how hard it is, you have to do it, right?" Luo Gongchen was extremely optimistic.

There are so many people who have lost their land, since the Ming Dynasty does not give a way to live, then go to find a place to get a new way to live, from Fujian to Jilong Island, it only takes a day's water journey, and there are large plains suitable for farming.

Logging is a very tiring thing, but it is also a very tiring thing to live in Daming.

"Perhaps." Luo Bingliang was a little confused.

At this time, at the southernmost end of the Ming Dynasty, in the Luzon Governor's Mansion on Daming Street, Manila, Luzon, there was a fierce quarrel, and Luo Lian from Tessie impassionedly opposed a resolution of the Ming Governor Yin Zhengmao, and Yin Zhengmao leaned back in his chair and looked at Luo Lian.

This is the seat of the governor of Luzon, and it is also the seat of the former king of Luzon, and Yin Zhengmao sat on it as a Ming Dynasty Surabaya Bo and a martial artist.

"I think it's better for you not to execute the officials of the Spanish Viceroyalty of Luzon, whether it's the commander-in-chief GaudΓ­ or the viceroy Francisco, doing so will make both sides very embarrassed, and if you keep these prisoners, you can exchange more chips." Lorien opposes Yin Zhengmao's execution of Francisco, the Spanish governor who had been captured during the previous Battle of Manila.

Luo Lian stretched out a hand and said, "I know that Daming is strong enough in the far east, but what about the other side of the Pacific Ocean, to Tessie?" If Francesco and GaudΓ­ were returned to Spain, King Felipe II would be grateful to the Ming for giving him enough respect, which was very important to the king, and it would also allow the Ming ocean-going ships to obtain a safer trade environment. ”

"I don't think there is any need for the Governor and the generals to be afraid of an opponent who has already been defeated."

"You have a point." Yin Zhengmao was persuaded by Luo Lian, nodded and said: "I agree with you, but it depends on how much Felipe II is willing to pay for this face." ”

The captives can be returned, but they must have enough chips, this is the idea of Yin Zhengmao, who has no money, it is difficult for him to do things.

As the de facto king of Luzon, he had great discretion in the affairs of Luzon, and this discretion included the disposal of prisoners of war.

"Always full of wisdom and cunning Orientals." Luo Lian breathed a sigh of relief, Luo Lian herself is also a captive, but a captive completely belonging to Deng Zilong, of course Luo Lian has to speak from the perspective of a captive.

From the perspective of the Ming Dynasty, the overseas Fanyi of the Hongmao Fan captured the vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, Luzon, and now they are defeated by the Ming Dynasty, so the anti-chieftain Gaodi and the governor should be beheaded to show the public as an example, in history, the Ming Dynasty did this.

And this time, before beheading, Yin Zhengmao wanted to listen to Luo Lian's thoughts, completely considering the possible impact of killing Gao Di and Francisco, and it was best not to affect the galleon trade of Da Ming and Hongmaofan.

Silver is one of the core driving forces of Daming's current whip method.

Yin Zhengmao didn't know about Taixi, or he wanted to know that in Taixi, the consequences of the execution of the governor of Luzon by another country would have an impact, and whether it would affect the business and trade between the Ming Dynasty and the red hairy fan.

Then the next step is the exchange of interests, and Francisco should be able to sell it for a good price.

Yin Zhengmao thought for a while and said, "The Franco-Rang people should completely withdraw from Luzon, including Cebu Islands and Mindanao. ”

Lorien thought for a moment and said: "This may require armed struggle, we Tessie is like this, if you are strong, you can listen to you speak well, so that Felipe II has to accept the fact that Spain has completely lost its influence in Tessie." ”

"Where has my man gone, he hasn't been seen for more than ten days."

Luo Li'an has not seen Deng Zilong for more than ten days, fifteen days to be exact, Luo Li is faintly worried in her peace of mind, worried that something bad will happen to Deng Zilong, at sea, there are too many accidents, storms, natives, diseases, and all kinds of animals are synonymous with death.

Lorien was convinced that she could not find a better home than Deng Zilong, and she was even more convinced that Felipe II would not pay any ransom for herself.

So Deng Zilong is everything to Luo Lian.

"He has something to do, he is a general of the Ming Dynasty." Yin Zhengmao did not specifically explain.

It wasn't until dusk that the three-masted deck giant ship of Manila appeared in the sunset on the horizon, and the barge sailed out of the harbor and began to tow, and the oars on the ship were also constantly rowing into the port of Manila.

The ship was full of traces of battle, the smell of gunpowder had not dissipated, there was blood everywhere, there seemed to be a fierce fight, the flanks of the ship were even damaged in a few places, the sail of the mast at the stern had been burned out of a big hole, and on board, there were busy soldiers.

Deng Zilong jumped off the trestle, he was not injured, but the battle made him a little tired.

"These red-haired fans do have two brushes, but only two, and the Sebu Camp Fort on Cebu Island was still taken by us." Deng Zilong saw Yin Zhengmao and said with a smile on his face.

Yin Zhengmao looked at Deng Zilong and was sure that he was not injured, before he asked with a solemn face, "What about the casualties?" ”

"Fourteen brothers were killed and twenty-six wounded." Deng Zilong's face was also full of solemnity, this casualty was already very high, because in the Cebu Saibu Camp Fort, there were less than 240 Hongmaofan, but there were more than 6,000 Luzon soldiers, these Luzon soldiers were weak, but they still caused some trouble to the siege of the Ming army.

When Yin Zhengmao heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's better than I expected, after all, it's landing on the island." ”

Deng Zilong said with a smile: "The process of landing on the island is far easier than we expected, the enemy's elite is too few, and they all rely on these 6,000 Luzon soldiers to deploy defenses, but they don't even have the idea of firing three arrows into the sky, and when they see our people, they directly disperse in a hurry." ”

Deng Zilong has not been in Manila for more than ten days, completely because he went on a mission to capture the Sebu Camp Fort on Cebu Island.

The whole of Luzon is divided into three parts: Luzon Main Island, which is across the sea from Chicken Coop Island, and a little south, Cebu Island, which is made up of hundreds of islands, and Mindanao in the south.

The heart of the entire Cebu Islands is the Sebu Camp Fort on the island of Cebu.

A year ago, Deng Zilong tried to replicate the tactics of the Manila Islands, captured the thief first, and led a thousand people to directly raid the Saibu Camp Fort, but he didn't even see the shore, so he was blocked, and then Deng Zilong changed his style of play and began to peel off the cocoon, cleaning up the surrounding pirate lair little by little, and finally wiped out the red hair in the Saibu Camp Fort.

The whole process lasted a whole year.

And the commander-in-chief is the Luzon general soldier Ying Bo Zhang Yuanxun, after the victory in Manila, the Ming army also produced some light enemy intentions, produced a kind of red-haired fan but such arrogant thinking, after suffering a loss, Luzon's southern soldiers actively adjusted, it took a whole year, and finally gnawed down the camp fort on Cebu Island.

It is of great significance to take the lock heart of the Cebu Islands, which means that the Luzon sailors have basically taken shape, and it represents that the Luzon sailors have changed from passive defense to active offensive in the war with Hongmaofan for Luzon.

In the past, Hongmaofan took advantage of the characteristics of many islands and reefs in the Cebu Islands to attack everywhere and harass the Ming army, but now, it is the turn of the Ming army to occupy this geographical advantage and attack and intercept the Hongmaofan in Mindanao.

This kind of active transformation on the battlefield is also very hard, and even the only three-masted splint giant ship is scarred.

After a year-long campaign, the ship was already in tatters.

Deng Zilong also looked at the scarred splint giant ship and shook his head and said: "This broken ship is indeed a warship, but it is not very easy to use, the flexibility is really too poor, if it is close to the enemy's endless boats, surrounded, coupled with fire attacks, I am afraid it will be difficult to win, and the shortcomings of the original building ship are the same." ”

"We need better ships."

Yin Zhengmao stood up straight and said quite precisely: "The first five-masted ship to go to sea will be handed over to the Ming army in Luzon. ”

Ying Yangbo Zhang Yuanxun had just come to the trestle and asked uncertainly, "What did you say?" Could you please say it again? ”

Yin Zhengmao said with great certainty: "This is what I determined with the imperial court when you were in the war, for this reason Yu Shuai also personally wrote a letter, scolding me, the first sea-crossing ship of Songjiang Shipyard in Songjiang Town was not handed over to Songjiang Zhenbing for use, if we are defeated in Luzon, Yu Shuai will avenge us!" ”

Hearing this, Zhang Yuanxun looked at Yin Zhengmao and said incredulously: "Don't you also say that you are not a relative of the emperor of the homeless people?" ”

Yin Zhengmao said unconvinced: "No." ”

"Don't you have a granddaughter in Beijing? It is not too much different from His Majesty's age, it is better to lobby Yuan Fu, even if it is to be a concubine, then Yin Butang is also a dignified and upright royal relative, otherwise the court is so holy that it is somewhat uncomfortable. Zhang Yuanxun moved his hands and feet to relieve the dizziness of getting off the boat.

The first five-masted ship to cross the ocean, absorbing the experience of warships from Taixi, improved from the sealed boat, the five-masted and 21-sail battleship, after delivery, was given priority to the Luzon army, which is a beautiful thing.

It is strange that the general soldiers of Songjiang Town have no opinion.

"Be cautious, after Yongle, there will be no nobles in the harem of the Ming Dynasty." Yin Zhengmao said with a solemn face.

When Zhang Yuanxun heard this, he also asked curiously: "It's also a strange thing to say, Empress Renxiao of the Yongle Dynasty, Empress Xu, but Xu Da's eldest daughter, after arriving in the Renzong Dynasty, why is there no queen in the harem?" ”

"There is little talk about the affairs of heaven." Yin Zhengmao still refused to say, he actually knew the reason.

What he said was actually inaccurate, after Yongle, there are still nobles in the Ming harem.

Emperor Renzong of the Ming Dynasty had a noble concubine in the harem, Concubine Zhang, who was the granddaughter of Zhang Yu, the king of Zhongwu in Hejian, the daughter of Zhang Fu, the British Gong, and the niece of Zhaoyi Guifei of Ming Chengzu.

This concubine Zhang is also the last noble queen in the harem of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhang Fu was unable to go to court during the orthodox years and his daughter's embarrassing position in the palace, which had something to do with it.

In the early years of orthodoxy, Renzong's Yuan with Chengxiao Empress Zhang was respected as the Empress Dowager, Yingzong was young, the Empress Dowager was regent, Zhang Fu's daughter married Renzong, and Renzong's Yuan was worthy of the country, if there was no conflict, it would be strange.

This is not that women are jealous, but that Zhang Fu's daughter at that time had a substantial threat to the position of Empress Chengxiao Zhang.

It is not difficult to understand that there is only one queen in the Yongle Dynasty, that is, Queen Xu, the eldest daughter of Xu Da, and as the middle and late Yongle period, the Xuande period, and the orthodox period, above all the nobles, is the British Gong Zhang Fu himself.

Emperor Yongle chose Concubine Zhang into Renzong's harem, what exactly does it mean, it is self-evident.

Emperor Renzong died violently after ten months on the throne, and Concubine Jing Zhang did not give birth to a child, and it is reasonable for the Empress Dowager to be dissatisfied with Zhang Fu.

During the orthodox years, Zhang Fu, as an auxiliary minister, could not go to the court, and as a nobleman, he was bullied into the house by the slave Xining of the Son of Heaven, so he could only swallow his anger.

If it is a family matter, it will be a trouble, but this matter has become a state matter, and Zhang Fu's decline represents the formal formation of the wind power of the Ming Dynasty.

When the Ming Emperor was in court, he once asked Wan Shihe, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, when did the Ming Dynasty start to control the military generals and supervise the army? Or our Ming Dynasty military supervision system, since when?

Wan Shihe said that it was from the second year of orthodoxy, when Wang Ji killed the commander of the capital to make An Jing, and the civil officials had the power to kill and seize the military attachΓ©s.

Wan Shihe actually showed his attitude of serious study very early, at least he was able to trace the root cause of the Ming Dynasty's revival of the civil and military generals and the control of the military generals, and traced back to the source.

Even if it is far away in Luzon, this is a slide that cannot be touched, Yin Zhengmao will not express his position at will, after all, he is now Surabaya Bo, and he is now one of the martial artists.

A Wen Jinshi was awarded the title of martial artist, which is somewhat weird, but Yin Zhengmao likes to personally lead the troops to kill the enemy, and the painting style is not so weird.

"If you don't get drunk today, you won't return, reward the three armies, Your Majesty asked Chen Lan to send five bottles of sweet potatoes from Jingshi, and we will drink it today." Yin Zhengmao diverted the topic and talked about rewards.

Zhang Yuanxun asked with a smile: "Isn't the name of that wine called Guojiao?" You guys drink, I'm afraid that the red hair will counterattack, keep an eye on the point, in case Liang Shouyu asks for help from Cebu Island, I will lead the army to support, drink and make mistakes, we have no way back, it is better to jump into the sea if defeated, and if we return from defeat, the officials of the court will eat us alive. ”

Deng Zilong looked at Luo Lian who was standing at the end of the trestle, that is, a somewhat big-headed, gentle township hero mound.

Deng Zilong walked over, looked at Luo Lian with a calm face and said with a smile: "Angry? ”

"No, after all, you're going to fight the red hair, and you're going to fight, of course you don't have to tell me." Luo Li'an shook her head and said, Luo Li'an has red hair, if you talk about red hair, she is the most typical red-haired fan, as the general of the Ming Dynasty, Deng Zilong fights, so naturally there is no need to explain to Luo Li'an.

Deng Zilong didn't need to tell Luo Li'an about the task, Luo Li'an had never asked for this, of course she had requirements for Deng Zilong, but it was a woman's request.

"You are the master, I am the slave, why do you want to explain to me where you go, I don't even have a child, what qualifications do you have to know the life and death of the master." Luo Lian's words carried a strong resentment, and this resentment was the child's problem.

Although the in-depth communication between the two is very frequent, Deng Zilong withdraws at a critical moment every time, resulting in Luo Lian never having children, and Luo Lian is really a little depressed.

That's why she calls herself Hongmaofan.

Speaking of which, Luo Lian was a little helpless, and even more interested, in Tessie she suffered a lot of sins because of this red hair, and when she arrived in Daming, she was still red-haired.

"Oh, it's born, it's a big deal!" Deng Zilong also said indifferently: "Isn't it just being poked twice in the back?" ”

Deng Zilong's situation is more special, his Yuan wife Meng Wanli died in the second year, at that time Deng Zilong was fighting in Guangzhou, and he didn't care about the matter of the stepfamily, and his father told him a family affair, and he was the daughter of the Wang family, a big family in Nanchang.

Deng Zilong actually doesn't like everyone's girlfriends very much, and he has not had time to go back to marry his stepfamily because of the war.

If Luo Lian didn't have a child, everyone met in Pingshui, just play, the sky is high and the sea is wide, and if you don't see each other again, it's just a good memory, if Luo Lian gives birth to a child, then wouldn't Deng Zilong want to give Luo Lian a name?

Deng Zilong was a little hesitant before, but a manly man, since he was teased at the beginning, there is no reason to be irresponsible.

So Deng Zilong didn't bother to care, everything was just as fate would have been.

"Really?!" Luo Lian's eyes immediately became surprised, and she said with a smile: "Go, follow me into the house." ”

Asking for a monthly pass, woo!!!!!
