Xie Di couldn't help but be stunned, the high-ranking officials who others couldn't ask for, didn't want Yue Buqun to abandon it like a piece of cake, and didn't cherish it. Xie Di couldn't help but hurriedly said: "Brother Yue, although the attendant of the Hanlin Academy is only a six-rank official, he is a close minister of the Long Live Lord, and he can always see the Long Live Lord." If you are lucky, it is also possible to become the first assistant of the cabinet of the Ming Dynasty within more than ten years. Brother Yue, don't look down on this position. ”

Yue Buqun waved his hand and said, "Even if you immediately give the foolish brother as the first assistant, the foolish brother is unwilling." Seeing that Xie Di was about to speak again, Yue Buqun turned around and asked, "By the way, why don't you see the young lady?" Oh, she is also nineteen years old this year, could it be that she is married?"

Xie Di couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and said, "Since she returned home three years ago, she has been sullen. Either I practiced boxing and swords at home, or I went to the beach to practice the piano. He had a cold face all day long, didn't say or smile, and didn't have much to say to my brother. The old father and mother persuaded themselves, but they didn't answer, and they really didn't know what the young lady really thought in her heart. In April last year, someone finally came to the door to propose, but I didn't want the matchmaker to be half dead by the young lady's blow, and everyone was so scared that everyone didn't dare to come to the door. Now she is still practicing at the beach and has not returned. By the way, the young lady has always respected Brother Yue, can Brother Yue help explain and persuade her, and see what she is thinking in her heart?

Yue Buqun agreed, thinking secretly in his heart, could it be that Ning Zhongze's premonition back then was right, this Xie Youniang liked herself, but because she had not arrived at Xie Mansion in the past three years, she became lonely. Yue Buqun touched his old face, except for the five willows and short beards, he was still as young as ten years ago. Yue Buqun couldn't help but laugh at himself, stinky and beautiful died. It's just that I'm destined to fail her in this life.

At present, he stayed in Xie Mansion, and did not see Xie Youniang return until the evening. After Yue Buqun had dinner, he sat cross-legged in the room to practice qi. I don't know how long it took, I heard footsteps coming this way, the footsteps were light, the skills were not shallow, and it was estimated that there was a first-class level, it seemed that Xie Youniang was here. Xie Youniang lingered outside the window and couldn't enter, Yue Buqun knew in his heart, and he didn't know what to say for a while, so he had to go with her.

I don't know how long it was, but I suddenly heard a knock outside the window. Yue Buqun asked, "Who is out there and what is the matter?" ”

Xie Youniang whispered softly: "The little girl Xie Youniang, this year's nineteen years old, thin and beautiful, good-looking, graceful temperament, should have been married to a lover early, but unfortunately the living beings in Jiangnan are inactive, not enough to match the young lady." He is a man of great knowledge, profound wisdom, and great spirit, and is a heroic and chivalrous man. The little woman has always admired Mr. Yu, and now she wants to go to Mr. and accompany him to explore the world and play the rivers and lakes. I wonder what Mr. thinks?"

Yue Buqun couldn't help frowning after hearing this, Xie Youniang was imitating the red breeze and running at night. It's a pity that he is not that Li Jing, no one has a real learning, and there is no other person's genius qualifications, so he thought for a while before saying: "The girl is everyone's lady, the young lady of the official family, and her identity is not comparable to that of a courtesan and a dancer.

After a pause, he said: "Besides, Yue already has a good wife in his family, and he doesn't want to marry again." Yue is thirty-seven this year, twice as old as the girl, and she can be described as red-faced and white-haired, which is very unworthy. As soon as I learned it, the girl had poor knowledge. Yue's gold and jade are outside, ruined in it, his stomach is empty, his words are nothing, and he is of no great use to the country and the people. And his character is despicable and shameless, hypocritical and false, always conspiring and calculating, and doing all the deeds of villains. I really don't deserve the girl's love. Yue is just a toad in the pond, but the girl is a Honghu in the pond, Honghu is nostalgic for the pond, and naturally thinks that the toad is the best. When you spread your wings and fly high in the future, you will know how short-sighted you were at the beginning. This is a lifelong event for a girl, and it should not be decided lightly. ”

Xie Youniang couldn't help but be stunned when she heard this, Yue Buqun's answer was completely inconsistent with her original thoughts, and she stood for a long time before stumbling away. Yue Buqun couldn't bear it, but he had reached this age, and he had long since lost the unrealistic idea of having three wives and four concubines when he was young. To have two good wives in this life is already very satisfying.

Early the next morning, Yue Buqun lied that there was something important to do, and left in a hurry after saying goodbye to Xie Di. Yue Buqun really didn't dare to see Xie Youniang's face again, there was no reason, but he just felt sorry for others. Anyway, Xie Youniang doesn't know her exact address, as long as she doesn't come to Yuyao anymore, presumably Xie Youniang's mind will gradually fade, and in a few years, she will find another lover to marry.

Then it was to go south to Guangdong, and the people of the Five Virtues Sect took root in Guangzhou, and after nearly three years of development, Guangzhou City has become the world of the Five Virtues. The Huang family's fleet was more than double as before, with nearly 2,000 sailors, who naturally became followers of the Five Virtues. Huang Anjie also joined the church at the same time. He became the assistant of the Water Master of the Five Virtues Sect and the deputy district of the Diocese of Guangdong, specializing in maritime affairs.

Huang Anjie's martial arts cultivation has a second-rate top grade, and his skills have also reached the second rate middle grade. Although he lost Bai Xiaoyun, Huang Anjie also gave Yue Buqun a lot of comfort. After Yue Buqun asked Huang Anjie to buy off the government at all levels in Guangdong, he bought the future Hong Kong and Macao at a low price as the private islands of the Five Virtues Sect. At this time, the two places were still a place where birds did not poop, and it was difficult to plant, only a few small fishing villages, and the price was not high.

Immediately after the Five Virtues Sect settled in, the construction of the wharf, the construction of the Maritime Trade College, houses, warehouses and fortifications began. Prepare to train the captains, sailors and sailors of the Five Virtues Sect. Yue Buqun thought about Zheng He's nautical charts when he went to the West a hundred years ago, and it seems that they were destroyed by Liu Daxia, the minister of the dynasty, and decided to go to Beijing at the moment, peek at the memory and copy it out, as a textbook for the future of the Maritime Trade College of the Five Virtues.

On the second day, he went to the capital, secretly bought off a few small officials of the Ministry of War with a lot of money, and mixed into the treasury of the Ministry of War, inspecting and remembering the Western charts and materials accumulated by Zheng He. Under Yue Buqun's super memory, it took more than ten days to memorize all the relevant information charts. Originally, he was going to go down to Guangdong again, but an idea from before made Yue Buqun stay for a few days and go to see the famous untouchable area in the capital.

Most of the eunuchs here can't enter the palace, eunuchs who don't have a skill, and eunuchs who have no power to tie the chicken. In broad daylight near the end of the year, Yue Buqun didn't feel the slightest joy and warmth, and only felt that he had entered the impermanent ghost realm of a human world. Everywhere there are walking dead, numb, eunuchs of the same size as ghosts.

If such people enter the palace and take power, God knows what kind of evil things they will do? It's just that these eunuchs can be blamed for the chaos in the world after tomorrow? No, without this backward feudal society and the decadent civil and official clique, the world would be peaceful, and there would be no possibility for the eunuchs to survive at all.
