Chapter 192 Persecution
"Phi Island? Huanglong?" Wen Tiren thought for a while, shook his head and said, "What does this matter have to do with Pidao and Huanglong? Could this sailor be of any use? Stop Kong Youde? Eh! Not good." Wen Tiren seemed to have thought of it What, his complexion changed drastically.

"Elder Ge." The book office took a cautious look at Wen Tiren.

"Huang Zhong, how many years have you been in the cabinet?" Wen Tiren glanced at the book office and asked pleasantly.

"It's been five years." Huang Zhong said softly with his head down.His voice was extremely flat, and he could not see any expression when he lowered his head.It seems that these five years are like one day.

"Others have been released for two or three years. Don't you want to?" Wen Tiren looked at Huang Zhong in front of him and shook his head. At any time, officialdom needs someone above him. Undoubtedly, there is no one above Huang Zhong. Or, in other words, this Huang Zhong doesn't know how to be a human being, otherwise, someone might have recommended him a long time ago to be a county magistrate or something.

"Please tell the elders." Although Huang Zhong is rather dull and not good at flattering people, he is a secretary of the cabinet after all, and he is also a smart person, so he quickly bowed down.

"Very good." Seeing this, Wen Tiren nodded, and said: "The emperor asked me to do one thing, but the court is busy with official duties, so you can run errands for the old man. After you come back this time, the old man will naturally promote you."

"Your official understands, please tell the old man." Huang Zhong was stunned for a moment, and quickly nodded.

"Very good." Wen Tiren grabbed the brush on one side and started to write. He stopped in the middle of writing, thought for a moment, and then said, "You start from Tianjin Wei immediately, take a boat and pass the sea, and go to the boarding station. Zhouzhou, wait for Li Xin, the commander of Yunzhong, and when you see Li Xin, tell him to be careful of Huanglong, the commander of Pidao."

"Huanglong?" As the secretary of the cabinet, Huang Zhong naturally knew who this Huanglong was, and even more so, what the general soldier of Pidao did.All of a sudden he hesitated.

In the third year of Chongzhen, Ming general Liu Xingzhi accepted Huang Taiji's surrender and secretly prepared to defect to Houjin again.At that time, because his brother Liu Xingzuo died in battle and died for the country, the court suspected that Liu Xingzuo had faked his death and defected to the Empress Jin instead of receiving a pension.The two were usually at odds, so at this time, they took advantage of the sacrifice of Liu Xingzuo to design to kill 11 people including Chen Jisheng, raised their troops to rebel, and killed and looted everywhere.When the Ming Dynasty heard about the change, they sent Zhou Wenyu, the deputy commander in chief, to the island to appease them.Liu Xingzhi accepted appeasement, and the rebellion gradually subsided.In May, Huang Long, the general of Jinzhou, was appointed as the governor of the former general who conquered captives, guarding Denglai and Dongjiang, and stationed in Phi Island.The situation in Dongjiang temporarily stabilized.Huanglong also became the chief soldier of Pidao.The navy under his command crosses the sea, even Jiannu has to be careful.Of course, at this time, the deterrent power of the Pidao Navy is far inferior to that of Mao Wenlong.But no matter what, Pidao is Pidao, Wen Tiren asked Huang Zhong to tell Li Xin to be careful of Pidao and Huanglong, which made Huang Zhong feel a little suspicious, and after the suspicious, he was afraid.He found himself in the middle of the struggle between the first assistant and the second assistant, which made him embarrassed.

"What? You don't want to?" Wen Tiren asked coldly with a cold light in his eyes.

"I don't dare, I will do it now." Huang Zhong trembled, his face turned pale with fright, and he cupped his hands and said.

"Go! Don't worry, your benefits are indispensable." Wen Tiren nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand.Before leaving, I did not forget to draw a big cake.

"Yes." Huang Zhong stepped back quickly.

"Hmph, Zhou Yanru, you want Huang Long to deal with Li Xin, but you don't know what the emperor is thinking at the moment, it's really sad!" Wen Tiren looked at Huang Zhong's leaving figure, and there was a smug look on Wen Tiren's face.It has to be said that Wen Tiren is a smart master, and he can immediately judge what Zhou Yanru is thinking from the slightest clue of what Zhou Yanru said.Li Xin is about to arrive in Dengzhou, where he can go ashore, either to attack the rebels, or to provide disaster relief.No matter what, he will leave Shandong in the end, Shandong is not his base camp.He is going back to the grassland.If you want to go back to the grassland, you can go by land and go back to Yunzhong through the Zhili and Xuanfu areas, and the other way is to take the sea and go back to your base camp through the Jinzhou area.Does Li Xin dare to go overland now?I'm afraid it won't work if you give him ten guts. In this way, he can only go by sea, so Zhou Yanru came up with the theory of Pidao. , Those who can escape on land, but at sea, a few shells pass by, that is death. I am afraid that no one can say anything if they are buried in the sea, even Li Xin's 10,000+ army.The sea is mysterious, or swept by strong winds.All kinds of excuses are enough to deal with those Qiu Ba in the cloud. When Li Xin dies, not only the threat of Zhou Yanru will disappear, but also the threat of the 10,000+ elite soldiers in the cloud to the court will disappear. It can be said that if Zhou Yanru's move is successful It is tantamount to helping the court solve a big problem and making a great contribution.

But if Zhou Yanru succeeds, it means that he is out of luck for being warm and benevolent.Zhou Yanru made such great achievements, and his position in the court was stable. Even Emperor Chongzhen couldn't do anything to him.How could Zhou Yanru, who had stabilized his position, allow his political opponents to remain in the court!Therefore, with this in mind, Wen Tiren must not let Zhou Yanru's calculation succeed.

In fact, it was exactly as Wen Tiren imagined. After Zhou Yanru heard that Li Xin was in Shandong, his first reaction was to get rid of Li Xin. He could see Chongzhen's attitude clearly. If he didn't act, he would leave the court by himself. It's a matter of time, Wen Tiren, an ambitious guy, won't make it easy for him, if he can save the holy family, he must make a contribution to let Chongzhen know that he is still useful.What bothers Chongzhen the most at the moment, one is building slaves, the other is civil strife, and the third is Li Xin.Zhou Yanru didn't have the ability to deal with Jiannu, and Zhou Yanru couldn't deal with civil strife, but he didn't have the ability to deal with Li Xin before, but now the opportunity has come.Then Huanglong.As long as Huanglong can kill Li Xin at sea, Zhou Yanru will win.Can Huanglong kill Li Xin at sea?From Zhou Yanru's point of view, it is absolutely possible. The sea is different from the land. Li Xin runs across the grasslands, but it is absolutely impossible to run across the sea.In addition, Li Xin had few soldiers and no one to guard him. Killing Li Xin was like killing a chicken.

Zhou Yanru also knew that this was the last chance to kill Li Xin. Once Li Xin returned to the grassland, Zhou Yanru would have no chance to deal with Li Xin again.So he did not hesitate to issue an order to get rid of Li Xin at the risk of being considered by Chongzhen as colluding with foreign generals.

In the vast sea, nearly a thousand giant ships sail on it, stretching for hundreds of miles, with the grain ship in the middle, and the Gu Sanmazi battleship around, and some pirates are seen along the way. It is not surprising to see so many giant ships. If you dare to act recklessly, run away.On the contrary, Gu Sanmazi was proud for a long time.Because it is near the sea, from Wusongkou to now, there is no loss at all.

"Mr. Zhang, I have made some progress this time." On the big ship in the middle, Zhang Cai and Li Xin sat across the table, and a pair of broken chess was placed on it. Li Xin was smiling, holding a white chess piece in his hand. Yunzi said with a smile.

"Hmph! So what, isn't it still a failure?" Zhang Cai looked disdainful, but in his heart he lamented Li Xin's wisdom. From Wusongkou to now, most of them are in boring moments. Cai because there were not many books in the cabin, and after being bored, although he hated Li Xin, at the invitation of Li Xin, he still played chess to pass the boring time.However, he soon discovered that Li Xin, who was invincible on the battlefield, was actually a stinky chess player. Now he found a happy place, and he would abuse Li Xin two or three times a day.What I didn't expect was that every time Li Xin was defeated, he was not ashamed, but proud. Once he made progress, he would be proud for several days, which made Zhang Cai admire Li Xin's shamelessness.

"Ahem! Sir, you see that Dengzhou is ahead. I don't know why the master taught me?" Li Xin touched Yunzi with a smile and said.

"Teach you?" Zhang Cai looked at Li Xin with wide eyes, but he didn't understand why Li Xin said this. Did he really think that he would serve him?

"If you want to distribute nearly one million shi of grain to the victims in Shandong, you must have a regulation. If you want to go to war immediately, I will naturally be the one to charge forward, but to appease the people and govern the territory, people like Mr. Zhang are needed. If you let me wait for such a vulgar person to release relief, I am afraid that I am doing bad things with good intentions. I have nothing to do with my reputation, but this disaster victim? Mr. Zhang, what do you think?" Li Xin said casually.

"Are you threatening me?" Zhang Cai was annoyed when he heard this, one Buddha was born into heaven, and two Buddhas were born into the world.He couldn't help standing up and pointing at Li Xin and said.

"If you think so, sir, there is nothing I can do." Li Xinxin started, looking like a dead pig not afraid of boiling water, and said: "As long as these grains can be owned by the people of Shandong, what if I use some means?"

"You." Zhang Cai trembled with anger after hearing Li Xin's shameless words. Finally, he tossed the sleeves of his robe, turned around and left.

After a while, the fragrant wind blew past, and I saw Dong Xiaowan walking up with a cup of fragrant tea in his hand, with a graceful figure, but he lost a lot of weight recently.

"You are not resting in the cabin, what are you doing here?" Li Xin showed a trace of pity on his face when he saw this, he reached out to take the tea, but hugged Dong Xiaowan in his arms.

Dong Xiaowan glanced around anxiously, her face flushed slightly, but she was also full of joy, obviously enjoying Li Xin's intimacy.Finally raised his head and said, "Brother Li, that Mr. Zhang is a great talent, why did Brother Li force him? When I was sitting with Mrs. Zhang just now, I saw him complaining about Brother Li non-stop?"

"He is a great talent, but such a person is not willing to be used by me. If I don't force him, how can he give advice for me?" Li Xin said while stroking Dong Xiaowan's small head.
