Anti-Qing: I'm actually an honest person

Chapter 157 Zheng Kezang, Your Father Has Rebelled (Three in One)

Prime Minister's House.

Between the beds.

Liu Dapao had just done some favorite things with Xiao Ahqiao, and was about to fall asleep with the softness in his arms, but the beauty didn't have enough fun, and she kept teasing him.

"cannon"

"Ok?"

"After shutting down all the businesses recently, it's so boring. You said I can find something to do well in the city."

Liu Dapao couldn't help complaining: "Are you still bored? I heard He Tieshou said that just before Yao Qisheng set off, you specially brought a jar of good wine to invite him to have dinner with Yu Chenglong. Under the spring wind and rain, these two deadly enemies actually shook hands, hugged and reconciled in front of you, and even gave each other gifts, you have more things to do than Emperor Jiunan, are you still boring?"

"Hee hee, just say, I'm doing a great job."

"Great, great, great, but how did you do it?"

"I have a good relationship with their wives. It's a wives bureau."

"Wait, you have a good relationship with Yao Qisheng's wife. I know that I have never heard of any wife or lady in Chenghai City who has a bad relationship with you. You deserve your name as the number one courtesan of Ming Dynasty, but Yu Chenglong ... Hasn't his wife died long ago?"

"Shouldn't someone renew it after death? It's Longhu Chamber of Commerce, Boss Sun's daughter."

"Why don't I know? Boss Sun's daughter, Boss Sun is two years younger than Yu Chenglong himself."

"Isn't this a matter that hasn't been settled yet, but the two of them are already secretly in love. This young lady of the Sun family is a character who would rather marry a hero concubine than a mediocre wife. Miss Sun took the initiative."

Liu Dapao thought for a while, and said, "You couldn't have arranged this matter."

"I'm not that good, that is, the introduction of building bridges, the place is still done by others."

"Hey~"

Liu Dapao sighed, and was really speechless for a moment.

I want to say that the harem can't do politics, but I can't say it out loud. Besides, people don't really do politics. They just rely on their own favor and spend money like running water all day looking for the ladies and misses in these cities every day. Eating, drinking, drinking, having fun, she has an exquisite temperament, and other ladies and ladies also deliberately please her, so that now she is really a big sister in the whole Chenghai, and her reputation is well-deserved.

There are many things that she doesn't even know about Lei Zhentian, but she is very clear.

As for the concubine, Liu Dapao didn't ask her to be dignified.

But he said, "What do you want to do again?"

"I'm thinking of all the four and seven sisters in the rally... to do a little business."

"Want to help displaced women? Good thing, open a textile factory, or after taking Ningbo, I will open a big one for you in Ningbo?"

"I don't want to open a textile factory. Look at the top ten chambers of commerce who open textile factories everywhere. It's not interesting."

"Why don't you still want to open a brothel? No, let me tell you, sooner or later I have to gradually ban the cancer of brothels. The reason why I didn't ban it directly is because it is better to block it than to sparse it. The general idea must be Wide in and strict out."

This is really useless, and it’s not that Liu Dapao wanted to legalize brothels. After all, the Qing government’s management of brothels was already extremely strict. There are also a bunch of men disguised as women on the market.

"What are you thinking? I want to start a... how should I put it, a matchmaker company?"

"Oh~, a dating agency."

"Basically, to put it simply, it is to organize various gatherings of ladies and young masters in the city, whether it is a man or a woman, try to find the other half you like, isn't this a matter of great merit."

As soon as Liu Dapao heard it, he could hear the little Ah Qiao's ulterior motives: "I'm afraid you don't just want to make friends with the shareholders in the city."

"Wouldn't it be a good thing if it could solve the problem of military officers and soldiers getting married."

Liu Dapao sat up when he heard the words, and whispered to Xiao A: "Then what, I tell you very seriously, I, at least for now, don't have the slightest idea of ​​usurping power and becoming emperor. In the future, my son There is a high probability that he will not take over from me. Even if he wants to take over, it must be approved by all shareholders. This is different from the emperor's selection of a prince in a feudal society. In my eyes, there is no difference between a concubine and a concubine. .”

"You...Although you are a concubine, in my heart you and the Chen family are the same. This battle for fame and position is meaningless, do you know that? Don't have any thoughts that you shouldn't have. This is not a dispute." Empress, you said that you have the support of the brothers from the Tiandihui outside, and you have a lot of connections, how can the Chen family have your prestige? There is no need to extend your hand to the military power, right?"

"Isn't this just to help you, just like this time, Yu Chenglong and Yao Qisheng are about to fight, isn't it because I helped mediate, this is going to fight, in case something else happens someday Are people united to usurp power or embezzle? My aunt is going to build Jinyiwei, so you don’t have a way to deal with it?”

"Your aunt?"

"It's the emperor, you forgot, I am also from the former Ming clan."

"When did you recognize your relatives!"

For a moment, Liu Dapao felt a headache all over his body.

This bitch is too ambitious, she is really not an easy-to-handle little girl.

"There have been official media in all dynasties, so just let me do it. It's a good thing for the people, the country, and you. They are just idle and boring. Back in the day, they were women who didn't let their eyebrows go. Heroes who fight against the Qing Dynasty on their waistbands, as long as they know friends in the world, which one doesn't respectfully call you "big sister", now, when someone is married to you, you hang around among the female relatives all day long, and you can't show your face anymore , Seeing that the former brothers all have their own careers, hey~, pity me, pity me~"

"All right, all right, all right, all right, all right."

She thought to herself, this is indeed a good thing, on the other side of Chen's... She is the main wife, so she can easily be suppressed by this little Ah Qiao.

This doesn't work.

Although Liu Dapao prefers to sleep with Xiao Ahqiao, he still loves the Chen family more in his heart. Besides, he is from a famous family. If people all over the world laugh at my family for being unhealthy, spoiling my concubine and destroying my wife, my reputation will be ruined for the rest of my life. Once it's over.

We have to find a way to strengthen the Chen family.

Why don't you think of something for her that is decent, doesn't need to be publicized, and has influence that can steadily suppress little Ah Qiao's business?
Just as he was thinking this way, he suddenly heard a loud knock on the door outside, which made him jerk and jump up naked.

The conditioned reflex is average, but there is still a little nervous feeling of being caught and raped in bed.

Thinking about it wrong, this is my own little wife, what kind of adulterer is she?

Can't help but say angrily: "Who is it!"

Then Lei Zhentian's voice came from outside and said: "Get up quickly, something has happened."

"What happened?"

"Zheng Jing, kill me."

"what?"

Liu Dapao didn't realize it for a while: "Where did Zheng Jing kill him? Who is he going to fight, La Bu? When did he become so brave?"

"It's not Labu, it's you, and it's calling towards Chenghai."

Liu Dapao was stunned for a while when he heard the action of putting on his trousers, before he asked, "Has he always been this brave?"

Quickly put on clothes and trousers with Xiao Ahqiao, Liu Dapao still thought about smelling the smell of sea oysters in the room, it was not bad, not heavy, so he invited Lei Zhentian in, and asked: "What is it?" Condition?"

"Just received the urgent report from the front, and the batch of supplies sent to Geng Jingzhong, a total of four Mingshen cannons, seven Thor cannons, a thousand Fuming guns, and two thousand replacement bird guns were all given by Zheng Jing. After being robbed, command [-] troops and go straight to Chenghai to kill them."

"Where did he get [-] soldiers?"

"Huang Fangdu of Zhangzhou has surrendered."

"Huang Fangdu? Why did he surrender to Zheng Jing? Out of his mind?"

"Huang Fangdu is Huang Wu's son."

"Huang Wu, is that the traitor of the Zheng family, that bastard who went to Oboi to remonstrate and move to the forbidden sea? Then the Huang family and the Zheng family should be geniuses who don't share each other, right, he is crazy, he voted for Zheng Jing?"

"At this time and at that time, Huang Wu died early after all. Huang Fangdu and Zheng Jing were old acquaintances, and Huang Fangdu was not in the direct line of Geng Jingzhong. I speculate that he should have been distrusted or even excluded by Geng Jingzhong. Moreover, Huang Fangdu actually inherited The title bestowed on Huang Wu by the Qing court."

"What title?"

"Mr. Chenghai."

Liu Dapao was taken aback for a moment, and said: "Why have I been making trouble for a long time, and my Chenghai City is still their fiefdom?"

"Huang Fangdu may not be on the same side as Zheng Jing. I guess he himself has a heart for the Qing court. Since Chenghai is his fiefdom, if you can make great contributions, the Chenghai you built will be his private property. Refund [-] yuan." Bu said, even if he died under the city of Chenghai, with such loyalty and meritorious service, after the Qing court pacified the south, would it be possible for this Chenghai to be distributed to others? Even if he died, there would always be sons who could inherit it. As for the title, I guess, maybe Zheng Jing already has the heart to surrender."

"That's it... but the [-] army wants to capture Chenghai City, is it... something I misunderstood?"

Lei Zhentian couldn't help complaining: "It's an old tradition of the Zheng family. They have never captured the capital of any province, but they always feel that they are particularly good at fighting. However, Feng Zhenhai and the others have already reached Meiling. It is still difficult to return aid, and..."

Liu Dapao rushed to answer for him: "Besides, the inextricable connection between us and Zheng Jing is too close. Among the four battalions in Chenghai City, the two most capable battalions are Jiang Sheng and Zheng Kezang. Curry is out of stock."

"right"

Liu Dapao casually took out a small piece of emerald stone on the table and said casually while fiddling with it: "The current situation is gratifying. If Shang Zhixin and his son are really loyal to their allies, it will be better for them to send reinforcements directly from Guangzhou to rescue them than the old man." It's easier and more direct for Feng and the others to come to me from Meiling, and if the two of you don't come to rescue me, I'm afraid, it may not be easy for Old Feng and the others to come back."

Lei Zhentian frowned and said, "If that's the case, we can only ask for help from Wanwan."

"Will Chen Jinnan send troops to rescue him?"

"he……"

Lei Zhentian was taken aback for a moment, but then he became quite frightened.

"Brother... I'm afraid it's really hard to say, maybe he's going to pretend to be dead again."

"You said that this stone is carved with a thousand-handed Avalokitesvara, does it have any artistic conception?"

"????"

"You said that if I improve the steam engine, can I make a machine tool for wire cutting? In this way, the efficiency of cutting jadeite will be much higher in the future, and even stone gambling can be played. If this thing is exported to Wu Sangui, he will definitely Like it."

"You are really big. At this time, do you still have the heart to study jadeite?"

Just as he was talking, he saw Wu Shun running up the stairs panting, shouting as he ran, "Great joy~ Great joy~"

Running up to see that Liu Dapao's bedroom was open, and Lei Zhentian was there, he was slightly taken aback for a moment.

Liu Dapao had already made up his mind, and said with a smile, "What's wrong?"

"Just now, Wang Ping reported to me that Zheng Jing intends to attack Chenghai City. Great joy!"

Wang Ping is Liu Dapao's newly appointed Zhili assistant, and it is also a nondescript official position, but who let Liu Dapao serve as the governor of Zhili part-time? As for the work of the prefect, if he can receive news, Zheng Jun must have been dispatched to Jiading generation, and Lei Zhentian is not an intelligence system, but the speed is almost the same.

Seeing this, Lei Zhentian couldn't help frowning and said: "Chenghai is empty, but bandit soldiers are approaching the city. Even if we don't take Zheng Jing seriously, how can this be a good thing? Even if we win him, it is our rebellion against the Qing Dynasty." The loss of strength."

"Ah, um...ah, yes, yes, it's not a good thing, it's not a good thing."

However, Lei Zhentian saw that Wu Shuntian was perfunctory him, so he grabbed Wu Shuntian's hand and pulled him to sit down: "No, you have to tell me clearly why this is a good thing."

Seeing that Lao Wu seemed a little embarrassed, Liu Dapao explained for him with a smile: "He was the secretary of the board of directors, and he has been alienated by the capital. The great joy he said was the great joy for the capital, not for the court. Great joy for the world.”

Lei Zhentian frowned and said: "In our imperial court, this seems to be the same thing, and I didn't see that it would be a good thing for capital. Does capital not like peace in the world, but war instead?"

Liu Dapao smiled bitterly after hearing the words: "Sometimes, capital really likes chaos in the world. Because of the advantages of sea trade, West Pacific can buy grain from overseas and then make money by selling grain. This principle is actually the same as we used to The one played by Malacca is the same. At least judging from the actual territory controlled by the imperial court, this mouthful of human blood capital is still worth drinking. It’s another matter, food price is also the focus of my attention and control, and I’m confident that I can control it.”

"However, even if the food factor is put aside, this kind of thing is still a lot of benefits for major shareholders. First of all, the stock market is bound to fluctuate. You know, for major shareholders, as long as the stock price fluctuates greatly, it must be a good thing, which means It’s a great time to cut leeks.”

"Specifically from this incident, we can first create panic, and then create a feeling of common hatred, and then I will lead some major shareholders to sell at a high level, which is the so-called smashing the market. Smashing the market will inevitably bring further Panic, retail investors, small merchants, and shareholders who have no confidence in the company and are not strong enough will sell their stocks, and when the stocks drop to a low level, they can take over and buy them back."

"In the whole process, we not only made money, but also purified the team, and at the same time increased the proportion of shares, three wins."

Lei Zhentian blinked, and asked a soul-pointing question in disbelief: "Soldiers, the major events of the country, life and death, what the hell are you thinking about the ups and downs of stocks? I don't even know." Should I praise you for your big heart, or should I praise you for your courage, Da Pao, if one day you die, I believe you must die because of money."

"I can think of stocks in everything. This is the basic quality of a capitalist. As for, if one day I really die on money, then I can only say that it is the fate of a capitalist."

Lei Zhentian turned his head to Wu Shuntian and said, "Old Wu, you think so too?"

Wu Shuntian shook his head in shock: "That's really not the case. The questions adults think about are always far-reaching and grand. In terms of structure, I must be far behind."

"Then where does your joy come from?"

"I just think that this battle will definitely be won. After we win, Quanzhou, Tingzhou, and even Zhangzhou will definitely belong to us. Geng Jingzhong can't say anything. Not only can we collect more taxes endowment, it can also produce a large amount of sun-dried salt in the coastal areas.”

"Haven't you ever thought that this battle will result in heavy losses, or that it will be difficult to win, or even lose? What if some obstacles prevent Lao Feng and the others from coming back in time?"

When Wu Shuntian heard it, he was even happier: "Shang Kexi will trip us up? That's a great thing, and it means that he has no ambition to fight against the Qing Dynasty at all, so why should we talk to him?" Just send troops to fight him and it’s over. Guangzhou is a good place. Besides, his Shang family has stocks in the company, and the share is not small. Hahaha, after this battle, just take back this part of the stock , and can also short their Guangdong business group.”

Lei Zhentian: "..."

"As for winning or losing, we know exactly how strong Chenghai City is. I'm afraid it would be hard for us to lose. As for the heavy damage, that's a good thing."

"Is it a good thing to suffer heavy losses?"

"Among the four battalions, the Jianguo battalion is the most precious, and it was not trained in the direction of going to the battlefield at all, and most of them have already been taken up by the children of our Tiandihui. The proportion of international students going to the Netherlands has dropped, but it is still the majority.”

"If there were heavy casualties, the Jianguo battalion must have suffered the least damage. The vacancies left by the other three battalions after the casualties could just be supplemented by junior soldiers. If you join them, you won't be able to share stocks. Who can't see this now? The four guards of Chenghai are the old guards of the Tang Dynasty, and they would not be changed by anyone."

Lei Zhentian was a little stupid at the moment, shook his head, and turned to Liu Dapao: "When did Lao Wu go crazy? Why don't you give him back his job, the secretary of the board is almost dead It's so normal."

"Old Wu's thinking is quite comprehensive. This is the second thing I want to say."

"........."

"Well, I may be the one who is abnormal. Since you are all confident and think this is a good thing, then I will go back first. By the way, should I control Zheng Kezang and Jiang Sheng first?"

"No, but you can call them both."

"Row."

Lei Zhentian turned around to leave, but saw Xiao Ah Qiao suddenly said: "Wait a minute."

"Ma'am, what's the matter?"

"Old Lei, you haven't married yet, have you?"

"How did the Xiongnu get married before they were destroyed?"

"Let me introduce one to you. What kind do you like? Let me tell you, I will know whoever has a daughter who has not left the court in this Chenghai city."

Lei Zhentian didn't even know it anymore: "Ma'am, there is going to be a war!"

"The war will not delay your marriage. In the past, we used to put our heads on our belts in the Tiandihui. If you don't want to delay others by getting married, you have to take responsibility. Now that Ming Dynasty has stood up, if you don't marry a wife, you won't have children. Are you worthy of your elderly parents? There are three unfilial ways to have no descendants."

"........."

"What kind do you like? I'll introduce it to you. Is it Xiaojiabiyu's, or is it gentle and cute? Is it good-looking or rich? Or, let me find you a rich widow, Mrs. Zhao from the west of the city." Did you know that her husband just passed away last month and inherited the wealth of the Wan Guan family. There are more than 2000 shares in the company alone. Those who go to their house to propose marriage and sell them have broken the threshold, but people say that they like masculinity and masculinity A man who is not too old is just right for you."

"Farewell."

Lei Zhentian hurriedly cupped his hands and ran away in despair.

Is it... all three of them are abnormal, or am I abnormal?

The thieves are all approaching the city.

But Widow Zhao... Hey, that girl is quite white.

………………

Of course, although Liu Dapao really didn't take this matter to heart, he didn't think about strategy at all, he just thought about how to cut leeks tomorrow, but after a while Zheng Kezang and Jiang Sheng arrived, these two people really panicked .

Seeing Zheng Kezang, Liu Dapao said, "Xiao Zheng, your father is rebellious."

"........."

Zheng Kezang was stunned at the moment, he just felt a big thunder strike on his head, and his head was buzzing, thinking why he didn't kill this old thing with a knife during the coup in Anping City.

Dang even knelt on the ground and swore, "Prime Minister, I didn't know about this beforehand, Prime Minister."

"I know you don't know, and I don't blame you. It's just that he should have entered the territory of Chaozhou now. If I'm not wrong, he will arrive tomorrow morning. This is a surprise attack, and I want to ask what you mean. After all Is that your own father? Do you think you should avoid it for a while, or continue to lead the army to fight, or, I will open the city gate tomorrow morning and let you go back to your father so that you and your father can be reunited."

When Zheng Kezang heard the words, he kowtowed and said: "Returning to the Prime Minister, since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety cannot be combined. Zheng Jing disregarded the overall situation and conspired against him. People from my family, my Zheng family is full of loyalty, there is no such person!"

"If the prime minister still trusts me, Zang is willing to invite himself to be the vanguard on the top of the city tomorrow, stationed in the corner towers outside the city, or go out of the city to invite battle, and vow to kill this Liao!"

"This...isn't very good. After all, it's your own father."

"In front of righteousness, there is no real father! This minister is learning from my grandfather, righteousness kills relatives."
