The legend of the king of crossing

Chapter 167 Song Wuxin

After listening to Ye Mengding's recitation of Chen Xinshu's "determination", I couldn't help being stunned. What does this mean?

"All my officials on Fujian Road are willing to follow the emperor to rejuvenate our dynasty."

Is Chen Xinshu expressing his determination?

After I ascended the throne, although the local officials of the Thirteenth Road all over the country proclaimed long live, they were actually waiting and watching in their hearts, what would happen to the imperial power, prime minister power, and post-power?These veterans in the officialdom know very well that standing in the team is the most important thing in being an official.

"Mr. Ye, what do you think?"

Ye Mengding recalled the process and said: "Judging from the situation at that time, Chen Xinshu and Shi Hongsheng didn't say anything beforehand. Shi Hongsheng and Zhang Song, who accompanied the guest, also showed surprise after hearing Chen Xinshu's words. My son, I First, let me tell you about the attitude of the officialdom on Fujian Road. On the surface, Fujian Road belongs to the post-power faction, but the attitude of the real principals, that is, the Chen family, has always been ambiguous, but one thing I think is certain , the Chen family is deeply rooted on Fujian Road. Two years ago, when Jia Sidao was preparing to implement the public land law, he chose Liangzhe Road and Fujian Road as pilot projects. So he gave up implementing the public land law on Fujian Road. From this point, it can be seen that the Chen family does not buy the account of the power of the prime minister. It is said that it is biased towards the power of the rear, only because Shi Hongsheng was once deeply appreciated by the queen mother. As for the imperial power, There is not much friendship between the late emperor and the Chen family."

Speaking of this, Ye Mengding stopped, and after thinking for a while, he continued: "My lord, I think there is such a possibility."

"What is possible?"

"The strength shown by the young master after he ascended the throne made Chen Xinshu feel that the future situation in the court will be completely different from that of the first emperor. This time I suddenly appeared in the name of an imperial envoy, which made him feel a little uneasy, so Chen Xinshu wanted to go to the court earlier. Make a choice for maximum benefit."

"Then isn't he afraid of standing on the wrong team?"

"I'm afraid, he will be afraid, but when it's time to play, he won't hesitate."

I smiled: "Mr. Ye, do all my court officials think like this?"

"This, this, most of them are." Ye Mengding wiped off his sweat, hesitating.

"Well, this is also the normal feeling of an official."

"Young Master Shengming." Ye Mengding said.

"Mr. Ye, it's getting late, you should go back to rest earlier, continue the trial tomorrow, continue to investigate, maybe Fujian Road will be involved."

"Yes, son, I will take my leave first."

"Well, Lan Yu, you send Mr. Ye off."

After Ye Mengding left, I kept tapping on the table with my fingers. For more than half a year, I have always focused on the court and ignored the local officials. These people are against the imperial power together, even if I can handle the imperial court, my decrees still cannot be implemented below.

In future generations, even in the country known as the freest and most democratic country on earth, every time the president changes, the post of governor of each state will try his best to appoint cronies who can implement the president's decrees, so as to ensure that the order is uploaded and issued, otherwise it will be like the first emperor. No matter how good the policy is, it will go out of shape at the bottom, forming a situation where there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom.But I didn't pay attention to it. It seems that I am still inexperienced, but fortunately, during this trip to Fujian Road, Chen Xinshu's "determination" reminded me.

At the same time, I am also fortunate that the Song Duzong I became through time travel was the only heir to the imperial power at the end of the Song Dynasty, unlike many emperors who had to go through hardships to ascend to the throne after killing brothers and fathers. There is no need to play tricks, otherwise, I may be killed before I mature.

Does the message that Chen Xinshu asked Ye Mengding to pass on to me really mean that he chose imperial power?If it is, then let him come to see me directly and get it done at once. If not, what is his purpose?

"Brother, we're back." Fang Ling said excitedly.

"Ling'er, let's see what time it is." I pretended to be angry.

Fang Ling ignored my appearance at all, sat down and said, "Brother, good news."

"Any news about Gao's descendants?"

"Of course, Miss Ben will go out and grab her hand."

"Really, that should be well rewarded."

Fang Ling hurriedly said, "Brother, what reward do you have?"

"You can say whatever you want, as long as you can do it, you can do it."

"That's what you said, don't be fooled."

"Once your brother and I opened our golden mouth, how could we play a fool?"

"Open the golden mouth again?" Fang Ling laughed loudly, "This is not the capital, so you can just blow it up. This reward, I will tell you when I think about it."

"Okay, no problem."

"One word from a gentleman is hard to follow, don't go back on your word."

"When did my brother stop talking?"

"That's true. Brother, today's situation is like this."

I poured a cup of tea, handed it to Fang Ling and said, "Linger, drink a cup of tea first, and speak slowly."

"En. Song Wuxin is indeed like a person without heart. Except for being obsessed with shipbuilding, he is very indifferent to other things. When I told him that there is a man named Mr. Huyan who knows the method of water sealing cabin, he couldn't wait to come to see him. you."

"Ling'er, that's all I know of the name."

"I don't care about that, man, I found it for you, and it's up to you next time." Fang Ling added, "Who said my brother is a god!"

I laughed and said, "Gods are also people, unless I am a god."

"What kind of person is a god, a god-man, anyway, my brother is a god."

"Hehe, I won't argue with you about this anymore, Ling'er, is Song Wuxin a descendant of Gao Shang?"

"I don't know about this either. Song Wuxin said that he wouldn't tell me. He could only tell someone who knows the water-tight cabin method. However, I think that even if he is not, he is still related to the Shenzhou giant ship."

"Well, what about others, did they come with you?"

"No, it was already late at that time, and Mr. Song doesn't know how to ride a horse. I made an agreement with him that I will bring him to the city tomorrow morning to meet you."

I shook my head and said, "Don't come here, let's go to Chuanfangji together tomorrow morning. Song Wuxin's house has a lot of blueprints, and it's inconvenient to bring them. It's better to visit."

"That's fine, this will show our sincerity even more."

"Yes, where are the three of Wen Zhang and the others?"

"These three fell asleep as soon as they came back, saying they were exhausted."

Since leaving Lin'an, the sky has been clear every day, and the weather in Fuzhou is even hotter than Lin'an.In summer, rain is more comfortable.

Go out of the east gate of Fuzhou, and then go eastward for about [-] li to arrive at Chuanfangji.

Although the place is small, there are many forks in the market. For me, who is blind, I really don't remember anything. Fortunately, Fang Lingwenzhang has a good memory, and after turning seven or eight times, he came to the northwest corner of Chuanfangji.

"Brother, it's just ahead."

"Well, let's go."

Song Wuxin had already tidied up and was waiting for Fang Ling to pick her up.As soon as the door opened, Song Wuxin said, "Little girl, let's go."

"Mr. Song, there's no need, I've brought him here."

Song Wuxin looked at the few of us and said, "Who is that?"

I took two steps forward and said, "Mr. Song, I am Hu Yan."

"Mr. Huyan?" Song Wuxin took a careful look at me and said, "Dare to ask how noble you are this year?"

"Hehe, I'm twenty to five." I know Song Wuxin thinks I'm too young, Zhao Xuan is 25 years old, and I'm in my 20s, and together they're in my fifties, so naturally I won't be much younger than Song Wuxin.

"Mr. Song, this is Mr. Huyan. Do you think he is too young?" Fang Ling said with a smile.

Seeing that Fang Ling exposed his intentions, Song Wuxin couldn't help being a little embarrassed, so he could only smile and said, "My lord, please come in, let's talk in the room."

Just as Fang Lingzhuan told the waiter from the shop, the room was in a mess and there were blueprints everywhere.

Song Wuxin led Fang Ling and me into a hut inside, and said, "My lord, the old man's house is simple and shabby, please forgive me for being negligent."

I heard that Song Wuxin's words were not meant to be polite, and knew that he doubted my shipbuilding ability because of my age, so I didn't care and said, "It doesn't matter."

"The old man's house is messy, so you can do as you please."

I found an empty seat at random, and after sitting down, I directly said the water-sealed cabin method and the foot-pulley method that I had heard from Quanjue and others.

The more Song Wuxin listened, the more excited she became, and she kept muttering, "Ah, it's still possible, why didn't I think of it?"

Of course, I can't explain why. After I finished speaking, I gave full play to my strengths and explained the physical knowledge related to shipbuilding, such as buoyancy, structure, and material science. Song Wuxin couldn't hear it like this. Fascinated.

"Xiao Yi, go and pour two glasses of water for Mr. Huyan and Miss Fang."
