Capital Datang

Chapter 249 Something Happened to Keelung

When he was still in Keelung, Li Yin was ready to recognize his relatives, because according to his guess, the other party was either his uncle or his cousin.And after meeting today, it was as expected, but what he didn't expect was that the other party turned out to be a person who had already been recorded as dead in the history books.

Although Li Min was surprised by this uncle who appeared out of nowhere, Li Min was quite acceptable. After all, the other party's explanation was indeed reasonable, and he was so familiar with Concubine Yang, so he could be sure that the other party was the uncle in history. Yang Wei, the king of Qi in the Sui Dynasty, was also his and Li Ke's uncle.

It's just that what Li Yin didn't expect was that his unlucky uncle was terminally ill, and he spent so much effort to lure him here, firstly to test his ability, and secondly, to entrust him with the affairs behind him. and Li Ke.

Since they are all a family, there is nothing to say, besides, they also gave their brothers all the power they have managed for decades, which is an extremely rich gift.In addition, Yang Hao himself also has a natural affinity, and his speech is full of open-mindedness, which makes people feel good about him. Therefore, no matter from which point of view, Li Ke and Li Min are very fond of Yang Hao. This uncle was very enthusiastic, but the thought of the other party's death was not long, which also made their hearts a little sad.

Li Ke and Li Min chatted with Yang Huan's father and daughter for almost a whole day, mainly about trivial matters in life. For example, Yang Huan asked the most about the health of his mother, Empress Xiao, and how did she eat?In addition, there are Concubine Yang and some situations about Xiao Shengping.It's just that what makes Li Yin feel strange is that his uncle seems to have missed a person who should be asked the most.Capital Datang 249

"Uncle, you asked about the situation of the concubine mother and grandmother, but why didn't you ask your cousin?" Yang Yan is an open-minded person, so Li Yin has no scruples, and can ask whatever comes to mind.

The cousin he was talking about was actually Zai Yang's son Yang Zhengdao.At that time, everyone thought that Yang Hao was dead. Fortunately, one of his concubines was pregnant and gave birth to a baby boy. This is Yang Zhengdao. He returned to Chang'an with Empress Xiao, and was appointed as the Minister of Sanqi for Yuanwai by Li Shimin.Ordinarily, as a father, what Yang Hao should ask most is the situation of his son, but now Yang Hao has not mentioned a word?

Unexpectedly, after hearing Li Yin's words, Yang Yan showed a wry smile, and said something that stunned both Li Yin and Li Ke: "That man is not my son at all!"

"What? This...how is this possible?" Li Yin and Li Ke didn't expect to hear such a powerful answer again, and they suddenly exclaimed loudly.

Seeing the surprised expressions of the two, Yang Yan shook his head with a smile. Although his two nephews are both dragons and phoenixes, after all, they have experienced so little that they can't figure out the joints, so he pointed out. : "Nothing is impossible. Since I, Yang Hao, was not killed by Yu Wenhuaji, then Yang Zhengdao may be a fake. Although I don't know where the queen mother found that child, but in that kind of " In the troubled times, she needs a descendant of the Yang family in her hands, as a guarantee for her life."

Yang Hao's words can be said to have revealed the truth in one word, and it also made Li Ke and Li Min all feel a sense of enlightenment. Indeed, in the era when all heroes were at the same time, after her husband was killed, Queen Xiao, a woman, if she did not If she had a little capital, she would have been killed by someone long ago, and Yang Zhengdao, the nominal posthumous son of Yang Wei, is undoubtedly her biggest political capital. This is used as an excuse to interfere in the affairs of the Central Plains.

So, no wonder Empress Xiao is closer to my grandson than to Yang Zhengdao's own grandson. It turns out that guy is a counterfeit. Just a life-saving gold medal!Thinking of this, Li Yin couldn't help secretly admiring his old grandmother who had experienced many vicissitudes.

With the deepening of understanding, Li Ke, Li Yin and this uncle Yang Yan chatted more and more speculatively. From family affairs to state affairs, they could talk about almost everything, especially for Li Yin who voluntarily gave up the throne. In exchange for Li Shimin's full support for the outward development, Yang Hao applauded even more.

He didn't stay on Liuqiu Island all these years. Before he got sick, he often went out to sea by boat. He traveled almost all the seas in Southeast Asia, and even reached Tianzhu as far as he could.After seeing these overseas lands, he suddenly discovered that the overseas lands are not poorer than the mainland, on the contrary, there are many places that are even richer than the mainland, such as some large islands south of Java, where the natives hardly use Working hard, there are edible fruits everywhere in the forest, and there are inexhaustible fish in the sea. These naturally growing plants and animals are enough to ensure that they will not go hungry all year round.

Compared with these places, the land of the Central Plains can be described as barren. The hard-working people have been busy for a year, but they can barely eat enough. If there is a flood or drought, it is common for people to starve to death, and sometimes it will happen. The human tragedy of changing children and eating.

In addition, Yang Hao said with emotion that he also found a large island in the south of Java that is very suitable for living, and he also sent some people to clean up the natives on it. Bringing all the people to move to that big island, it is estimated that it will not be needed now, and it will be given to the two brothers Li Yin together at that time.

Li Yin and the others didn't end the conversation until the sun was setting. Compared with the tension in the morning, it became very harmonious now. He sat down there and had dinner with Brother Li Yin by the way, and then left.

And early the next morning, Li Yin asked Lu Qing to take over the other party's territory with someone.This is also what Yang Hao asked for yesterday. After all, he is already a person waiting to die, and he only has a ten-year-old daughter under his knees, so he cannot inherit his seat at all. Besides, Li Ke and Li Ke are the closest If you don't give these two nephews to them, who else can you give them to?

Speaking of which, the power in Yang Hao's hands is really not small. The number of residents under his jurisdiction is as high as more than [-], of which more than [-] troops can be mobilized. Of course, these more than [-] people can only be used for a while. As the standing force, there are only more than [-] people as the core force.

These 2000 people are directly in the hands of Yang Hao. He is also one of his confidantes who command these 40 people. This person is named Zhu Meng. He is in his [-]s this year. It was thanks to this person that he fought his way out desperately, and even almost lost his life in order to protect Yang Hao. He could be said to be the person Yang Hao trusted most.

In addition, this Zhu Meng also has a lot of background. His father's name is Zhu Kuan, and this name may not be known much, but Yang Guang sent people to Liuqiu Dadao and Liuqiu Islands farther away three times, of which the first two times They are all led by this Zhu Kuan. It can be said that he is No. 1 among the officials of the Central Plains Dynasty leading to Southeast Asia.It is also because of Zhu Kuan that when Yang Wei was desperate, Zhu Meng, Zhu Kuan's son, suggested that he come to Liuqiu in order to develop slowly, and finally he has the situation today.It can be said that Zhu Meng is not only Yang Wei's confidant, but also his number one hero.

In addition, apart from Zhu Meng, there is another important person under Yang Hao, whose surname is Chen Minggong, who has the same name and surname as the counselor who abandoned Cao Cao during the Three Kingdoms period and later assisted Lu Bu, but it is a coincidence, Although separated by hundreds of years, these two people with the same name and surname are rare resourceful people.The plan to attract Li Yin came from him and Yang Yan, and the real executor was Chen Gong. In addition, since Yang Yan fell ill, Chen Gong was helping him to deal with the people's livelihood and other political affairs. He has never made any mistakes, so he is a rare administrative talent.

In addition, compared to Zhu Meng, Chen Gong is not only younger, but also has a bigger background.His father's name was Chen Leng, who was originally a general of the former Sui Dynasty. When Yang Guang sent someone to Liuqiu for the third time, it was this Chen Leng who led the soldiers.Moreover, compared with Zhu Kuan who led the team the previous two times, Chen Leng had a higher position. He not only paid homage to Dr. Guanglu, but also bestowed him with the title of Marquis Xin'an.In addition, Chen Ling also clashed with the natives in Liuqiu, not only killed the leader of the other party, but also looted thousands of native men and women to offer to Yang Guang, which was much bigger than Zhu Kuan.

Before and after the "rebellion" in Jiangdu at the end of the Sui Dynasty, Chen Leng also followed Yang Guang all the time, and he was also one of Yang Guang's most trusted officials. "Chaos", it was too late to return to the army. Later, Yu Wenhua and led the army to the north, and Chen Leng returned to Jiangdu, found the body of Yang Guang who had been buried hastily, and re-burdened him. It can be said that this person was one of the few loyal ministers in the late Sui Dynasty. one.It's a pity that he was defeated by Li Zitong later. He wanted to incite Li Zitong's feud Du Fuwei to take revenge, but the goal was achieved, but he was killed by Du Fuwei in the end.Capital Datang 249

Chen Gong is Chen Leng's son, but he was taught by his father since he was a child, and he has deep feelings for the former Sui Dynasty, so he didn't want to be an official in the Tang Dynasty. Later, after his mother passed away, he sold all his family property and took With the money he got, he traveled all over the country, and later, on a whim, he came to Liuqiu, who his father had been on a mission, and met Yang Hao by chance, and the two hit it off naturally. From then on, he became Yang Hao's most important assistant. , Help him manage Tainan and other places in an orderly manner.

Both Chen Gong and Zhu Meng were Yang Min's confidantes, and they both knew about Yang Min's serious illness, and long ago, Yang Min had persuaded them to continue following Li Min, so when Li Min took over Yang Min's power, , these two took the lead in expressing their loyalty, and the others were naturally no problem, so Li Yin easily controlled the entire periphery of Liuqiu Island.

However, before Li Yin could integrate Yang Yan's forces, there was an urgent news from Keelung. After receiving the news, Li Yin and Li Ke were all terrified, and brought the fleet with them Keep rushing to Keelung! (To be continued. !!!
