It's hard to love a concubine

Chapter 152

Going back to comfort Wanfu, Wanfu's heart has long been hardened like that, and he can deny his relatives. He waited for Xiang'er to coax him for a long time, and then he showed a smile. .

The emperor has been discussing matters with the ministers in the front. In fact, in Qian Xiyao's view, they are discussing the matter of Xinyang Hou. Qian Xiyao thinks about it and is quite embarrassed. The youngest daughter died tragically in front, and the father died in the back. Fresh life It just disappeared, it really is impermanent.

While sleeping at night, the emperor suddenly asked Qian Xiyao what she thought of the sea ban.

In fact, the death of Marquis Xinyang was really related to the sea ban.

When it comes to sea bans, Qian Xiyao thinks of modern history of humiliation, the Opium War, the Eight-Power Allied Forces, etc., vivid in her mind, the more she thinks about it, the more resentful she becomes, but who doesn't feel resentful when she thinks of this national humiliation, the fatuous Qing government The policy of closing the door to the country will destroy a country.

Maritime trade, what a good industry that is, has been strangled like this.

When she was watching a movie, she really wanted to go up and ask the Empress Dowager Cixi by the neck, is there cotton thread in your mind, cotton thread!
Even though she was so excited, Qian Xiyao still knew her own weight, she didn't dare to talk nonsense, and said politely, "Your Majesty suddenly asked about this?"

The emperor hugged Qian Xiyao even more tightly, but Qian Xiyao didn't speak. He thought of the death of Xinyanghou, and he felt very depressed. When Xinyanghou was found, he was already dead, with a knife stuck in his chest. Many people said that It was the pirate Xia Zhen who did it, and only he had the ability to sneak into the governor's mansion so quietly and kill a third-rank official.

Xia Zhen originally engaged in sea trade in private. Although the imperial court banned it, it was like leeks planted on the ground. After one crop after another, there was no way to get rid of it. After all, the word "profitable" is not a simple word That's all, and the business at sea is still the temptation of the rich.

This Xia Zhen used to be a juren, but then he took this road of no return for some reason, waiting to be exposed, and finally took a boat to go to sea, but after a few years he became a figure like the overlord of the sea, not only Dongying The guest of honor from the country is the leader of the 36 nearby islands, and nearly a thousand people follow him.

This person has been making troubles on the shore all year round, leading pirates to burn, kill and plunder villages and do all kinds of evil. He has accumulated a lot of wealth and has the title of a wealthy country.

He and the governor of Zhejiang and Fujian, Xinyanghou, have been fighting wits and courage for no less than two years. This year, he finally couldn't bear it anymore, and he still killed Xinyanghou.

The emperor sent Deng Qiquan to investigate the case quickly, but he felt heavy in his heart. Marquis Xinyang was a rare general, and it would be a pity to die.

He is gone, who will I use to replace him?

The emperor hugged Qian Xiyao tightly and didn't speak. Qian Xiyao thought that she probably didn't need her answer at this time, all she needed was a considerate and pillow-like woman, so she had to keep it in her heart for Hai Jin. His thoughts were suppressed, and he lay obediently in the emperor's arms.

After something like this happened, it was naturally impossible to enjoy the scenery and have fun. The team hurried on and quickly entered Hangzhou, where there is heaven in the sky and Suzhou and Hangzhou in the bottom.
