Chapter 475 Brothers and Cousins

Chapter 475 Brothers and Cousins ​​(Fill~)

At the old lady's birthday banquet in Anping Hou Mansion, Second Highness Li Yu replaced the emperor to celebrate the old lady's birthday.

At the birthday banquet, the Tianhuang nobleman "fell in love at first sight" with the young daughter of the Marquis of Anping. Later, with His Majesty's permission, the two families entered into a marriage according to etiquette.

Because the marriage was bestowed by the emperor, it is unlikely that any accidents will happen, and the royal family also has the clan and the Ministry of Rites to preside over the marriage, so the marriage was set on the twelfth day of the first lunar month in the ninth year of Hongde.

That is, in about two months.

The Marquis of Anping is the number one general in the imperial court, with a big family and a great career, and Li Yu is the emperor's younger brother, the two are well-matched, the news of their marriage was published in the new issue of the mansion newspaper, and spread throughout Jiankang , It became a good story for a time.

After all, everyone likes to watch this kind of "love at first sight" drama.

Just as Jiankang City was preparing to hold a wedding, Shen Yi's work of suppressing bandits was also going smoothly.

At the beginning of November in the eighth year of Hongde, Japanese pirates once again harassed the coastal areas of Fujian.

The anti-Japanese army at this time were basically qualified soldiers who had been trained for several months, and some veterans already had rich anti-Japanese experience, as well as professional anti-Japanese tools like wolf whisks.

More importantly, because Shen Yi has a firearms workshop in his hand, the anti-Japanese army is also equipped with firearms at the moment. Although artillery is not practical when facing Japanese pirates, some earthen bombs are still useful when facing Japanese pirates. Very useful.

With the blessing of various advantages, Ling Su and Xue Wei defeated the Japanese pirates in Fuzhou and Quanzhou respectively, and wiped out the captive Japanese pirates, totaling more than [-] people.

In mid-November, Ling Su and Xue Wei, each escorting a group of Japanese pirates, went to Fuzhou Mansion to meet the imperial envoy.

At this time, Shen Yi himself also came to Fuzhou Mansion.

To be precise, he commanded these two battles remotely from Fuzhou City.

Because from grasping the enemy's movements to cutting off the enemy's back route, it was Shen Yi's Di Bao Division who provided important information. Among them, the Di Bao Division's internal response played a very critical role.

On the way of the two anti-Japanese troops escorting the Japanese pirates to Fuzhou Mansion, Shen Yi was sitting in a restaurant in Fuzhou City, drinking with the imperial envoys.

At this time, both of them were smiling.

Li Mu held up his wine glass, toasted Shen Yi, and said with a smile: "Thanks to Ziheng's strategizing, with these two big victories, this year will be easier for you and me."

Shen Yi touched Li Mu, smiled and said: "This big victory can be said to boost morale. From now on, our anti-Japanese army will completely become the nemesis of Japanese pirates, and no one will fight against the Japanese again." The Japanese pirates have a little bit of fear."

At this moment, Shen Yi was naturally happy in his heart.

He left Jiankang in April and worked outside for more than half a year, and now the hard work of half a year has finally paid off.

Li Mu smiled and said: "The next thing is the coastal area of ​​Guangdong. Let's fight a good battle on the coastal area of ​​Guangdong. From now on, Japanese pirates will no longer wantonly harass the coastal area like before."

"Um…"

Shen Yi also toasted Li Mu, and said with a smile: "By next spring, our warships will be launched, and then it will be time to attack and defend the aliens. Maybe the prince can go out to sea by boat and chase a few Japanese pirates for fun." .”

Li Mu laughed, and then sighed with some emotion: "To be honest, I really want to kill a few Japanese pirates myself, but these are all military exploits..."

"I won't touch it."

He looked up at Shen Yi, and said softly: "It's useless for me to take these credits, I'd better leave them all to you, Ziheng."

"If Ziheng can wipe out the Japanese pirates that have plagued Chen Haibin for decades in two or three years, it will be a great help to you."

Speaking of this, Li Mu looked at Shen Yi's expression with a bit of envy: "Maybe, in another six or seven years, Ziheng will be able to climb to the position of Minister of the Ministry of War."

"At that time, Ziheng, you were the youngest servant of the Six Departments."

Ministers are different from other Beijing officials.

Because the officials of the six departments must have some professional skills. For example, the criminal department must be able to recite the law, and even be able to settle cases, the household department must be able to settle accounts, and the Ministry of Industry... must be able to do civil engineering.

And the Ministry of War...it doesn't have to be able to command and fight, but it must be military.

Because it is a bit professional, the officials of the six departments, especially those who have made certain achievements in their duties, are generally promoted in the headquarters. Only when they reach the rank of minister or minister can they be promoted to Zhongshu. Or transfer to another department.

Like Shen Yi, the new head of the Ministry of War immediately shines in the coastal anti-Japanese cause, which means that he has the "potential" to be a member of the Ministry of War and will continue to be promoted in the Ministry of War in the future.

However, it is a bit too exaggerated to be the Minister of the Ministry of War in six or seven years.

After all, the Jingcha only happens once every three years. Even if Shen Yi climbs up one level every three years, it will take him 12 years to become the Minister of the Ministry of War according to the calculation of the principal, Yuanwailang, doctor, and servant.

Regarding Li Mu's "flattery", Shen Yi just smiled dumbly and didn't take it to heart.

After the two had a conversation, Shen Yi remembered the business and said, "By the way, my son, I will ask you for leave after I meet Ling Su and the others in Fuzhou Mansion in two days."

"A leave of absence?"

Li Muxian was a little surprised: "It's not yet the twelfth lunar month, and you're going back to Beijing?"

After saying this, Li Mu thought of something and slapped his forehead: "Yes, your wife is about to give birth."

As he said that, the Jin Shizi cupped his hands at Shen Yi, and said with a smile: "Congratulations to Ziheng in advance, hug a big fat son."

Master Shen narrowed his eyes and smiled, "That's more congratulations for having a fat girl."

Li Mu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "That's right, I also like girls more, but it's a pity that there are only two sons in the family, and I haven't embraced a daughter yet."

After saying this, the two married people clinked another glass with smiles on their faces.

After drinking for three rounds, Li Mu seemed to have drunk too much. He looked at Shen Yi in a drunken way, and exhaled a strong breath of alcohol.

"Have you heard? Your Majesty bestowed a marriage on the young girl of the Anping Marquis Mansion..."

Shen Yi frowned and didn't speak.

This matter was published in the mansion newspaper, so it is impossible for him, the former secretary of the mansion newspaper, not to know about it.

Seeing that Shen Yi didn't speak, Li Mu drank a glass of wine on his own, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty married the Zhao family's daughter to his own brother..."

Shen Yi continued to remain silent, then toasted Li Mu with a toast, and said softly: "This is mostly to show favor to the Zhao family. It is also a matter of glory for the Zhao family to have a princess."

"Ho..."

Li Mu didn't know if he was drunk, but he sneered. He lowered his head and took another sip of wine, and said, "If you want to win over the Zhao family, then you should give Princess Liyang to the son of the Zhao family. court…"

Princess Liyang is the younger sister of His Majesty, and the younger sister of the same mother.

His Majesty is naturally reluctant to let his younger sister out.

Shen Yi stretched out his hand and patted Li Mu's shoulder, sighed softly: "My lord, you drank too much."

Li Mu raised his head and glanced at Shen Yi with a drunken eye, then he stood up and let out a mouthful of alcohol.

"If this is the case with brothers, what are cousins?"

 I had a terrible headache last night, I couldn’t write, and I moved again during the day, so it’s been delayed until now, sorry sorry!
