Outlaws of the Marsh

Chapter 210 Yizi (addition 110 for friend "Wenzheng Tianxia")

...

Li Yan and Liang Shan's army arrived as soon as it got dark.

Li Yan saw with his own eyes that all the troops he brought had settled down, so he followed Qiao Daoqing and others who came to pick him up into Licheng City.

Although it was already past Haishi, Li Yan did not go to rest, but called the relevant people to a meeting, and announced two decisions: "First, search all the official properties in Licheng City, including the family properties of Korean officials, All were seized and confiscated, and sent back to Jeju Island by Li Jun and other naval forces. Second, the homes of all the nobles were searched, and all the slaves were liberated, but they resisted, shot to death, and then ransacked the house.”

After hearing these two orders from Li Yan, the faces of Li Jishen, Jin Fuzhe, Zheng Zhichang and other Koreans all became ugly!
None of these people was shrewd. After listening to this order from Li Yan, how could they not understand that Li Yan had already made a choice—a choice that was greatly detrimental to them and their family?

Zheng Zhichang, with a thick bandage wrapped around his head, stood up and bowed to Li Yan, and then said: "I am willing to serve as an envoy to promote the eternal good of Jeju Island and Korea, and please suspend these two orders!"

Jin Fuzhe also said: "I am also willing to be an envoy, and the king can ask for any conditions!"

Li Yan looked at Zheng Zhichang and Jin Fuzhe and said indifferently: "Don't hurt you Goryeo, can your king give me the conditions I want?"

"This……"

How could Li Yan, a later generation who has been bombarded by historical novels for many years, not understand that the alliance under the city is more effective than any messenger?

Not only Li Yan understood, but also two smart people, Zheng Zhichang and Jin Fuzhe.

The problem is, if Li Yan is not stopped now, when Li Yan's order is promulgated, blood will flow into rivers in Korea!
It's not a big deal for them.

You know, with Li Yan's order, those slaves who have no hope will definitely jump up and respond.

And the nobles are used to slaves being their private property, and it is very important private property, how can they let go easily?

Both sides will fight until one side completely defeats the other.

And by that time, Goryeo must be seriously injured.

Zheng Zhichang wanted to say something more, but one of the ten stiff people sitting at the end was an ugly and burly boy who stood up abruptly, and then shouted excitedly: "Wulinen..." and shouted for a while. There are a lot of Korean words that Li Yan can't understand.

These ten people are servant soldiers who Li Yan asked Cao Zheng and others to pick out outstanding performance. He plans to promote them as models and give hope to other slave soldiers. This burly young man is one of them. According to Cao Zheng, he is called "Ugly" , without a surname, and don't know what the ancestral surname is, killed two Goryeo soldiers, very brave.

Cao Zheng came over to translate for Li Yan and said: "Chou said, should we serve you nobles for generations to come, should we be beaten and scolded by you for generations to come, not enough to eat, not to wear clothes?" Nuan, why, why, I am not convinced, I must change these things, even if it means death."

Zheng Zhichang didn't even look at Chou, let alone talk to Chou, as if even the slightest interaction with Chou was an insult to himself.

This is the irreconcilable contradiction between the noble and the humble in Goryeo, and it is also Li Yan's greatest opportunity.

Li Yandao: "Please invite Mr. Zheng, Mr. Jin and others out."

As soon as Li Yan's words fell, Ruan Xiaoqi led a few guards in, and then snatched out Zheng Zhichang, Jin Fuzhe and other Koreans who refused to surrender for the time being.

Li Yan didn't kill Zheng Zhichang and Jin Fuzhe because they were still useful, but that didn't mean they could act presumptuously in front of Li Yan. Ruan Xiaoqi, who had been with Li Yan the longest, knew Li Yan's attitude best. Therefore, Ruan Xiaoqi was not at all polite to Zheng Zhichang and the others.

But Li Yan pretended not to see Ruan Xiaoqi's impoliteness, but looked at Chou and praised: "You are very nice and brave."

As soon as Li Yan's words fell, a short and thin young man suddenly knelt down and kowtowed, and said, "Please don't abandon us, Your Majesty is our patron saint bestowed by the gods, and we are willing to accept all your guidance!"

This short and thin young man is called "Qi". He used to be a private servant of a declining wealthy family. He was beaten half to death for peeking at the mistress taking a bath, and then he was sold. He can speak Chinese, and he has always behaved like that. Very positive, and then brought in by Qiao Daoqing.

Sun Gongsheng, who has always felt that his talent has not been brought into play, his eyes lit up when he heard what the chess said, and then he looked at Qiao Daoqing.

Seeing Sun Gongsheng's gaze, Qiao Daoqing nodded.

The two came to an agreement.

Li Yan lifted the chess piece up, and then said: "I came to this world to do justice for the heavens, don't worry, I will definitely liberate slaves and servants like you."

Sun Jing's eyes moved, and she said: "I think these two boys are very good, why don't you adopt them as foster sons?"

Hearing Sun Jing's suggestion, Qi was so excited that his whole body was shaking!
Those who don't understand Chinese are very confused and don't know what they are talking about!
(The reason why Chou was able to understand what Zheng Zhichang said just now was because Qi whispered the translation for Chou.)
Li Yan, who likes to read historical novels, is not unaware that adopting sons is a very effective way to win people's hearts. For example, Li Keyong in the late Tang Dynasty had more than 100 adoptive sons. Among them, the most famous Thirteen Taibao were all capable of fighting , Guan Ping, Guan Yu's adopted son, was loyal and filial, and finally died together with Guan Yu. Zhu Yuanzhang adopted more than 20 adopted sons. Li Wenzhong, Mu Ying, Ping An, Xu Sima, etc. all made great contributions to Zhu Yuanzhang.

It can be seen that the youngest of these two teenagers is 27 or [-], and thinking that he is only [-], Li Yan can't help but feel a little bored!
Taking a deep breath, Li Yan smiled and said, "Would you two be my adopted son?"

Qi kowtowed to Li Yan without saying a word, and at the same time said affectionately: "Father!"

Hearing this father, Li Yan's face twitched!
Li Yan thought: "It's good to get used to it, it's good to get used to it, and you will have to do things often in the future."

Li Yanchong nodded and said: "Okay." Then he looked at Chou and asked: "What about you?"

Qi hurriedly pulled Chou, made Chou kneel down, and whispered something to Chou at the same time.

After Chou Tingqi finished speaking, he quickly knelt down, then gave Li Yan three real kowtows, and shouted: "Aboji!"

Although he could guess what Qi and Chou meant, it was really awkward not understanding. Li Yan thought, "Should I sleep with two teachers too...to learn Korean?"

Suppressing the distracting thoughts in his heart, Li Yan helped Chou and Qi up, and then said lovingly: "From now on, you will be called Li Chou and Li Qi, and you will be my foster sons."

After finishing speaking, Li Yan asked Wang Dingliu to take two exquisite beam swords from Li Yan's collection (in fact, they were used as gifts).

Not long after, Wang Dingliu brought two beams, one long and one short. Li Yan gave the long one to Li Chou and the short one to Li Qi. deal.
