"Father, don't worry!"

King Han knelt down on one knee and said solemnly, "Erchen's expedition this time will never dishonor the two generations of Longwei of his father and Hong Wuye. ”

"Vow to sweep all the tribes of Mobei, capture Arutai alive, and return to the dynasty to dedicate to my father!"

"Second brother, your ambition is commendable."

The crown prince patted King Han on the shoulder and said with a smile, "This time, you led the army to the north, and the ordnance, food, and other materials were all adjusted by the foolish brother. ”

"You just have to rest assured to fight the enemy, and the rest of the things are up to the eldest brother."

"You have to hurry today, so let's drink a few glasses first."

"On the day of your triumphant return, the foolish brother will set up a wine for you again!"

"Good!"

King Han clinked glasses with Emperor Yongle and the crown prince and drank them all.

And King Zhao stood aside, but he always bowed his head and remained silent, without saying a word.

At this moment, the appearance of his father and eldest brother making him feel a little disgusting.

Obviously, late last night, the two of them were still plotting in the palace.

Discuss how the second brother will bring heavy troops out of the division this time, and how to control it.

and also ordered himself to select thirty henchmen from the Qing Cangwei and place them in the army as eyeliner.

But today, he has put on such a picture of father's kindness and filial piety, brotherhood and brotherhood.

King Zhao couldn't understand why his father, who was once so heroic, became so suspicious.

Why is the eldest brother who was benevolent and righteous at the beginning so ruthless to his brother.

"Third brother, come."

The crown prince waved his hand and said with a smile, "Your second brother is about to go on an expedition, don't you give him a glass of wine?" ”

King Zhao had no choice but to step forward and barely squeeze out a smile, "Second brother, junior brother wishes you a hundred victories and success." ”

"Hahaha, third child, borrow your auspicious words."

King Han and King Zhao clinked glasses and drank, grinning, "Second brother, this time, we must completely sweep away the Tartars, so that the Lieqian Border Pass will no longer suffer from barbarians!" ”

Emperor Yongle suddenly remembered something, and asked with a smile: "Xu'er, why don't you see Yuan'er?" ”

"Yuan'er is a sincere and filial person, you led the army to fight today, won't he come to see him off?"

"Father asked."

King Han smiled helplessly, "Before dawn today, Yuan'er went to Liaocheng." ”

"It's my dad who sent him away."

"Why did Yuan'er go to Liaocheng again?"

Emperor Yongle frowned slightly and didn't say anything more.

Seeing that the atmosphere was a little silent, King Han hugged his fists and said, "Father, eldest brother, the minister will go there." ”

"Within half a year, the son will capture Arutai and return to his father!"

Emperor Yongle and the others stood with their backs to watch the army go out of the city.

When the King of Han led his troops away, Emperor Yongle slowly spoke, "Sui'er, Yuan'er went to Liaocheng, why didn't anyone report to me?" ”

"This ......"

King Zhao knelt down on one knee and said apologetically: "Father, it's all the negligence of his sons. ”

"Some time ago, Yuan'er went to Tianzhu, and Erchen withdrew all the Qingcang guards placed beside him."

"I didn't expect that he had just returned two days ago, and he went to Liaocheng non-stop."

"In the future, I have to send someone to monitor and ask my father to forgive me."

"Third brother, as the commander of the Qingcang Guard, you must be meticulous at all times."

The crown prince reprimanded: "The person that my father wants to monitor must have his reasons. ”

"If Yuan'er did something unseemly this time, but his father was kept in the dark, would you be responsible?"

King Zhao nodded helplessly, "What the eldest brother taught me is that the younger brother will send someone to chase after Liaocheng." ”

When he turned to leave, he couldn't help but be full of righteous indignation and angry at the bullfight.

"Obviously, the second brother only went out for the country on the front foot, putting his personal life and death out of the way."

"Father and eldest brother actually said such ruthless words to Yuan'er on their back feet."

"Second brother, I really don't feel worth it for you......"

……

In the early morning, the sky was just getting dark.

Lu Yuan had already arrived in Liaocheng on the Apocalypse.

With the performance of the Apocalypse, it only takes two days to get from Lieqian to Tianzhu.

From the Imperial City and Liaocheng, it was only half an hour's effort.

On this trip, Lu Yuan brought Ushima and Lingju.

With Lingju by his side, he is naturally a top-level combat force to ensure his safety.

And Ushima has just come to Lieqian, and he is not familiar with life.

Lu Yuan planned to take her to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the prosperous era in Liaocheng.

also let Princess Xiaoma know what kind of strength her man has.

The Apocalypse docked at the dock, and Wu Yue and others were still rushing to build a new ship overnight.

The crew all set sail, and the mixed river dragon also started to work.

Seeing Lu Yuan standing on the deck, everyone put down the work in their hands one after another, and said respectfully, "I've seen the prince of the world!" ”

"Everyone, you're welcome."

Lu Yuan waved his hand and said with a smile, "This trip to Tianzhu can be called smooth sailing." ”

"Old Ni, this is all your credit."

Looking at Wu Shima beside Lu Yuan, Wu Yue and the others had a somewhat complicated face.

I didn't expect the prince to come back from Tianzhu Country to such a beauty.

It's a bit too smooth, isn't it?

Ma Baocai and others followed Tianzhu for more than a month, so they naturally went back to report safety to their families.

Lu Yuan first talked with Wu Yue and others and listened to their reports on the progress of the second ship.

"Lord Shizi, the progress of this second ship is even faster than we imagined."

"Now there are only a few details that need to be adjusted, and it will be completed in about half a month."

"Good!"

Lu Yuan smiled happily and nodded, "Master Wu, you are really a rare talent!" ”

"All the officials of the Ministry of Works, as well as the fireworkers, will go to the county government later, and each person will receive twenty taels."

"Count me Lu Yuan, please have a drink, brothers!"

"Thank you, Lord Shizi."

Wu Yue sighed, his face a little embarrassed.

Lu Yuan saw that he had something unspeakable, so he smiled and said, "Master Wu, something happened, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”

Wu Yue smiled bitterly and said, "Lord Shizi, after building this second ship, we will say goodbye to you and return to the imperial city." ”

"Why?"

Lu Yuan frowned, "Are you not happy in Liaocheng?" ”

"The prince treats me like a mountain, and even his family members are brought for us, how can we not be happy?"

Wu Yue sighed, "It's just that a few days ago, the emperor sent an envoy, saying that the palace was going to build a new palace and urgently needed manpower. ”

"Tell all our officials of the Ministry of Works who have stayed abroad to return to the Imperial City within a month to take up their duties, otherwise they will be punished for the crime of disobeying the order."

"Although we really want to continue to serve the prince, we can't disobey the king's order."

"I still hope that the prince of the world will have mercy on the lives of our family."

Listening to Wu Yue's words, Lu Yuan fell into a short silence.

Then he waved his hand and grinned, "Master Wu, what do you mean by this?" ”

"Could it be that I, Lu Yuan, am so ignorant, will I still be forced to stay with you?"

"The emperor's will is the mandate of heaven, don't say it's you, even I don't dare to disobey."

"Since the court needs someone to serve, then you can go back."

"After half a month, I will give you a tray, and then set up a banquet to see you off."

"Thank you!"

Wu Yue nodded emphatically and said gratefully, "The ability of the lower officials to serve the prince is really a blessing from the cultivation of three lives." ”

"When the fortifications of the imperial court are completed, the lower officials will definitely return to Liaocheng and continue to help the prince build a ship!"

"That'...... I went first to consult with the brothers about the details of the shipbuilding. ”

Seeing Wu Yue turn around and leave, Lu Yuan couldn't help but sigh slightly.

"Hopefully, there's still this chance."

He stayed in the imperial city for two days, and saw no sign of a new temple to be built.

Even if a new temple is really built, it will only be a work of strength, not technology.

Just send an official of the Ministry of Works and hire three to five hundred pyrotechnics to do the work.

Why did you deliberately recall the more than 100 people who stayed in your Liaocheng?

There is probably only one reason.

The emperor did not allow himself to continue to build new ships.

But Lu Yuan didn't know whether this was someone slandering him or the emperor's own thoughts.

If it's the former, it's easy to do, just kill the traitor who slandered him.

But if it's the latter, it's a bit of a problem......

Lu Yuan scratched his ears and cheeks for a while, and his heart was extremely anxious.

Mixed Jianglong walked over from the side and said with relief, "Lord Shizi, don't be too angry. ”

"The way of the emperor is like this, no matter how much you favor the emperor's relatives and relatives, it is impossible to let them overly support the army and respect themselves."

"You can have two huge ships like this, and you can almost match the combat effectiveness of a sailor battalion in Lieqian."

"How can the emperor let you continue to build endlessly, so that you have the ability to subvert the Fierce Dry Water Army?"

"I understand this."

Lu Yuan nodded, and said helplessly, "Old Dragon, it's really unpredictable." ”

"Originally, I wanted to ask you to be a water warfare instructor and train thousands of skilled crew members for me."

"But now, I can only have two ships in a short period of time, so I don't need so many people."

Mingjiang Long was silent for a moment, and said with a light smile, "I understand what the prince means. ”

"Since Liaocheng doesn't need me, then I'll go."

"Where are you going?"

Lu Yuan asked with interest, "Don't forget, you are the pirate leader who has been executed. ”

"Out of Liaocheng, the entire Lieqian is monitored by Qing Cangwei everywhere."

"If one of the guards sees you, your life will be gone."

Mixed Jianglong resolutely said: "This, there is no need to worry about the prince. ”

"Long was wrongly loved by the prince, he was able to save a life, and spent two months in Liaocheng, and he was already content."

"In the future, life and death will be good and bad, and Long will come and go by himself."

After saying that, Chaojiang Long flicked his sleeves and turned around to leave.

"Stop."

Lu Yuan took a sip of the wine bowl on the table, and said lightly, "What, Master Wu and they are about to leave, and you, General Long, also plan to abandon me, and turn me into a loner?" ”

Mingjiang Long's figure was stunned, and his face was confused, "Didn't the prince want to drive me away?" ”

"You're going to chase you if I'm risking a lot to keep me, and I'll chase you?"

Lu Yuan grinned, "Even if you want to leave, I won't let anyone go." ”

"Sit down and drink!"

Mingjiang Long's heart warmed, sat opposite Lu Yuan, and poured himself a bowl of wine.

After three or five bowls of wine, he couldn't help but ask, "Lord Shizi, since there is no need to train more crew members at the moment." ”

"So what do I do next?"

"That's a good question."

Lu Yuan touched his chin and smiled mysteriously, "Old Dragon, what do you think is the most important thing about the two armies fighting?" ”

"Nature is for the bravery of the generals."

Mixed Jianglong said without thinking, "One soldier bears, and one bear." ”

"No matter how strong an army is, it must be led by a brave general to be fearless of the world!"

Lu Yuan smiled and shook his head, "There is some truth in that, but I don't think so." ”

Mingjiang Long looked suspicious: "What does the prince of the world mean......?" ”

"Although I haven't fought much, I've heard a phrase before."

Lu Yuan said solemnly, "That is, knowing yourself and knowing your opponent, you will not be defeated in a hundred battles." ”

"The battle between the two armies, as an important matter, is intelligence!"

"Not bad."

Mingjiang Long thought for a moment and nodded convincingly.

"If you can have an elite secret guard, you can find out the enemy's intelligence in every battle, and it is indeed better than 100,000 troops."

"Lie Qian fought with the barbarians on all sides, and the reason why he was able to gain the upper hand was largely due to Qing Cangwei."

Lu Yuan grinned, "This is the new task I want to give you." ”

"In a few days, I will recruit a group of smart and bold talents for you."

"You will personally train them in secret, and train them all to be even better than Qing Cangwei's secret guard talents!"

"This ......"

Mingjiang Long hesitated for a moment, and said with a wry smile, "Lord Shizi, I used to be the governor of the navy, and the training of crew members is my specialty. ”

"But I'm not good at training dark guards, let alone training better than Qing Cangwei......"

"It doesn't matter, you won't, I can teach you."

Lu Yuan was unhurried and took out a stack of paper from his arms.

These pieces of paper are the contents that I copied from "Eyeliner".

"Just memorize all of this, and you'll be the first best Secret Guard."

Mingjianglong was slightly stunned, and then took it and read it carefully.

But after only two pages, he was shocked and his eyes widened in disbelief.

"Oh my God, this ......"

"Lord Shizi, have you stolen Qing Cangwei's training methods and purposes?"

"Can Qing Cangwei have such strict training and such professional teaching?"

Lu Yuan waved his hand disapprovingly, and said with a straight face, "Old Dragon, this group of talents is extremely important to us. ”

"It may even be related to my net worth and life."

"You must first count the above content, and make yourself an elite agent who is proficient in reconnaissance, counter-reconnaissance, undercover, and assassination."

"However, take those people I picked out well, and teach them all to be existences that can compete with Qing Cangwei!"

"Thanks to the trust of the prince, Long will definitely complete the task!"

Mixed Jianglong nodded heavily, hesitated slightly, and asked cautiously, "Lord Shizi, can I ask." ”

"You first built the Sailor Warship, and then you trained these dead guards."

"Are you accumulating strength and preparing to overthrow the fierce dry?"

"What?"

Lu Yuan was slightly stunned, and suddenly couldn't cry or laugh.

"Old Dragon, are you crazy?"

"I am the prince of the Lieqian Dynasty, a good saint grandson under the emperor's knees."

"If I overturn Liegan, won't I have nothing?"

"No matter how stupid we are, we can't rebel ourselves, right?" (End of chapter)
