The Soldier of the Ming Dynasty

The affairs of the political affairs department soon set off a huge "storm" in Changsheng island.

The most difficult days of migration have passed. With the gradual completion of the residence, the farming of the fields, the resumption of business and the harvest of dividends have come.

As the saying goes, "everything is inferior, but reading is high.".

But what is the purpose of reading?

At this time, Li Yuanqing actually made public the official position of the political affairs department and made it clear that it would be included in the establishment. There were not too many restrictions on the requirements of the officials themselves. How could the gentry of Zhenjiang origin like Changsheng island be able to sit still?

This is equivalent to Li Yuanqing giving them a ladder to climb the expressway.

However, the gentry of Zhenjiang origin are already like ants on a hot pot -- "fire is on the fire". The "sitting households" of Changsheng Island, especially those with culture, experience and qualification, as well as respected local squires, including a large number of wounded or retired officers and soldiers, are not idle.

Who is willing to let these excellent officials fall into the hands of those Zhenjiang gentry in vain?

For a while, Changsheng island was in a state of crisis, and the undercurrent was surging. Everyone was trying his best to win more support and chips.

But at this time, Li Yuanqing has set foot on the speedboat for Denglai, standing in the bow, enjoying the cold sea breeze in early spring.

Li Yuanqing is in charge of the vicissitudes of Changsheng island.

In fact, it is like a calm lake. It is always calm and seems to be stable, but there is also a serious lack of change. Only when the water molecules constantly produce sound, collision and friction, more power will be generated, thus, more energy will be produced.

And Li Yuanqing firmly controls the military power and the general situation, which means that he puts a thread on them and can lift them up or put them down at any time.

If it's a normal life, Shen yourong's birthday is not "on time" like 60 or 70. In fact, Li Yuanqing doesn't have to come in person.

But by this time, Shen yourong was 68 years old. This veteran who had fought Japanese aggression, helped Korea, and pacified Taiwan, has really not much time.

In addition, with the growing power of the eunuchs, the throne under yuan Keli's buttocks began to be unstable, and the era of Denglai between their brothers had begun to shake.

For the strong yuan Keli, to be honest, Li Yuanqing did not have any favor at all.

However, it is undeniable that although he has a strong bureaucratic atmosphere, he is also quite skillful. To some extent, he is also a benchmark for a generation of literati.

In addition, in the Dongjiang era, Yuan Keli also played a positive role.

As the saying goes, "look at the Buddha's face without looking at the monk's face.".

When he is strong, Li Yuanqing may not lose face directly, but at this time, he is already weak. In this regard, Li Yuanqing must pay more attention to it.

Of course, according to Yuan Keli's temperament, even if he was dismissed, the old man would still be strong

Although Shen yourong is old, his roots are still there. No accident. Even if Shen yourong leaves office, the throne of Denglai commander-in-chief will fall on his descendants.

Although the water army in Denglai can not be compared with Changsheng island and Dongjiang River, the meat is definitely not small

Li Yuanqing suddenly thought of a poem written by Shen yourong, who said, "after flying a general with a sword, he is determined to sweep away demons.".

He may be old or even dazed, but his achievements can never be ignored.

"Cut off the bones and connect the tendons.".

Although the roots of the Shen family have moved to Denglai, their influence in the South can not be underestimated.

In the early spring, the sea was quite calm, and there were not too many rough waves. Five warships escorted Li Yuanqing's boat and drove all the way southeast.

On the deck, the sea breeze is a little cool, but it is not the cold winter thorough bone marrow, a little bit warm, unconsciously, has been integrated into the soft spring.

"Tea, sir."

Looking at the distant sea, a familiar soft voice interrupted Li Yuanqing's thinking. Xiaolian, like a delicate little oriole, appeared beside Li Yuanqing with a cup of hot tea.

Since that day, found that Xiaolian seems to have some less amazing amorous feelings, Li Yuanqing is on the heart, this trip, specially named Xiaolian to accompany.

Xiaolian is still a little girl. Although she was born in a lonely family, she has been serving Zhang yunniang since she was bought by Li Yuanqing. In fact, she is similar to Zhang yunniang in terms of sisters, not to mention the luxury, but basically the same.

According to the conditions of Li Yuanqing's family, I'm afraid that her life is not inferior to that of the ordinary ladies of a large family, and even more than that.

The little girl is at the age of innocence. She is very happy to come out with Li Yuanqing this time.

After all, although her life in the mansion is good, her range of activities is only on the island. At this time, it is early spring. On the sea, feeling the comfortable sea breeze and looking at the blue sea, how can she not be in a good mood?Li Yuanqing took the tea cup with a smile and took a sip. Suddenly, a fresh fragrance permeated his chest and abdomen.

Looking at Xiaolian's delicate pretty face, Li Yuanqing couldn't help laughing, "what's the fifth lady doing there? Is seasickness better? "

On this trip, Li Yuanqing not only took Xiaolian, but also Ren Yinger, the fifth lady, and several of her maidens.

On the one hand, Li Yuanqing always gives Ren's family some face. On the other hand, it's a waste of time to travel alone without a beautiful woman?

However, because this trip is a fast ship, the speed is twice as fast as the normal and stable boat ride. Ren Ying'er is a little weak, and some can not adapt to this rhythm. She has been on the ship for more than a day. She is seasick and has to stay in the cabin to recuperate.

Li Yuanqing's second important use can only be stranded for the time being. Fortunately, there is Xiaolian in front of him.

Where can Xiao Lian think of Li Yuanqing's mind? Busy smile way: "Ye, five madams just went to sleep, already good many, want to come, tomorrow can be all right."

Li Yuanqing smiles and grabs Xiaolian's hand. "The sea wind is strong, and ye is a little tired. Go back to the cabin and rub your head. "

Xiaolian pretty face slightly red, but as a close maid, she has long adapted to the degree of intimate contact with Li Yuanqing, busy and clever smile nodded.

Coming to the cabin, Li Yuanqing lies comfortably on the soft couch. Xiaolian quickly and cleverly lies by Li Yuanqing's side and kneads her head for Li Yuanqing.

Smelling the faint fragrance on her body and feeling the strength of her small hand, Li Yuanqing's spirit soon completely relaxed and quietly thought about the layout after.

According to the general situation of the imperial court at this time, the removal of Shen yourong and Yuan Keli, the elder brothers, was probably inevitable.

Not today, but tomorrow.

Fluctuations in Denglai are also inevitable.

However, Li Yuanqing's shoulders are too small, and the resources in his hands, especially the support from scholars, are too few. It is difficult for him to realize his intention to go to Denglai.

However, in business, there is a series of Shen family lines and the tacit understanding with Yuan Keli before. If we go further, there should be no problem.

In particular, the Dongying oilfield, which now belongs to the central part of Laizhou Prefecture, is determined by Li Yuanqing.

At this time, although Daming had already used crude oil, its use was very simple, far from bringing its "black gold" value into full play.

The most direct and simple one is the bottle type "incendiary bomb".

After careful refining, the kerosene will burn more and more fully. With the familiar use of grenades, pitchers are already familiar with this aspect.

Next, Li Yuanqing also plans to further strengthen the training of pitchers, and even strive to be able to throw "grenades" as a compulsory training subject for soldiers.

Moreover, with a stable source of kerosene, the catapult will also play a greater role, especially in the siege.

At this time, although the income of the private salt trade in Changsheng island is not much, it can still have an amount of 670000 Liang silver a year. If all of it is used to purchase crude oil, even if it can maintain a balance, it is still too luxurious.

Even, Li Yuanqing has heard the news, because Li Yuanqing has purchased a large number of these crude oils, and the rich businessmen in Laizhou government have been plotting to increase the price of crude oil.

How the hell can you bear it?

During this trip, we must try our best to reach a compromise with Yuan Keli, and take these matters into consideration before the next governor of Denglai takes office.

Of course, if you want to do this, the support of the Shen family is indispensable.

At this time, it is about to enter April. According to the previous plan, I am afraid that Mao Wenlong's plot against the old village has begun.

Li Yuanqing's time here is really tense.

Just thinking about it, the boat suddenly shakes, Xiaolian is scared, a cry, instinctively rushed to Li Yuanqing's arms.

Li Yuanqing was also startled. He held Xiaolian's delicate body in his arms and held it steady. He called out loud: "what's going on?"

For a moment, Niu Gensheng's familiar voice came, "general, there is a storm outside, as if it is going to rain heavily."

Li Yuanqing frown not from a frown, will Xiaolian to the side of the bed to sit down, "you wait here, ye go out to have a look."

Xiaolian was a little afraid, and her little hand tightly grasped the finger of Li Yuanqing's big hand, "Ye, you, be careful."

Li Yuanqing couldn't help but smile. He suddenly gave her a kiss on her small face and said to her ear, "wait for him here. I'll be right back

How can Xiaolian not understand Li Yuanqing's mind? Pretty face not from a blush, busy clever nodded.

Although some are not ready, but this day, she has already imagined countless times.

And this moment, in the near future, is likely to become a reality

Thinking, Xiaolian's delicate little face is more and more ruddy, busy and hard to support the bedside eaves.

At this time, the sky outside, lightning and thunder, a gloomy, as if from noon, directly came to the night.But in terms of navigation, Changsheng camp has already had rich experience. Niu Gensheng explained to Li Yuanqing: "general, it should be only heavy rain, not a storm. It won't cause too much trouble."

Li Yuanqing nodded, "slow down and keep a stable navigation. Keep in touch with the convoy at all times. "

"Yes."

As soon as Li Yuanqing entered the cabin, raindrops about the size of beans poured down like beans, and the planks on the ship were cracking.

Looking back at the sky dancing like gods and demons, Li Yuanqing's mood is extremely happy.

Unlike other people, Li Yuanqing has been fond of rainy days since childhood.

At this time, it is not a great beauty to talk about life and ideals with a little beauty like Xiaolian?

Thinking about it, Li Yuanqing smiles and strides towards the cabin.
