Chapter 681 I want to discuss a deal with His Highness King Xuan
Dongming Ziyu seemed to have just met Qu Xiaohan, a handsome guy, and said calmly: "King Nanyun Han, I don't know why you are here?"
Qu Xiaohan smiled lightly and said: "I have brought food here and want to negotiate a deal with His Highness King Xuan."
He said the word "I am King" in a clear and simple way, but it could not be ignored.
He was telling King Xuan that his current status was equal to that of King Xuan.
Dongming Ziyu narrowed his eyes dangerously, "Business?"
Shangguan Ruoli could faintly feel the smell of gunpowder and stood up hurriedly: "Since you have something serious to talk about, I'll stay out of the way."
"No need!" Dongming Ziyu and Qu Xiaohan stopped at the same time.
"I will take you back to your room first!" Dongming Ziyu put his arm around her waist, and then asked Mo: "Have someone take King Nanyun Han to the front study to wait!"
After saying that, as if declaring sovereignty, he held Shangguan Ruoli's waist with one hand and her swollen belly with the other, and walked out of the small hall.
Qu Xiaohan looked at their loving backs and showed a disdainful smile: Childish!
Well, he admitted that although Dongming Ziyu's behavior was childish, it made him feel very uncomfortable.
In the past, Shangguan Ruoli was first the prince's fiancée, and later was accused of being married to Dongming Ziyu. He was of low status and only guarded her silently in his heart. He never dared to have her.
However, now that his status is the same as Dongming Ziyu's, his state of mind is also different.
Mo Wen said with a smile: "Your Highness, King Han, please come with me."
Qu Xiaohan smiled and nodded, "Don't ask your father-in-law if you have anything to do."
"I don't dare, please!" Mo Wen turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation without being humble or overbearing.
Qu Xiaohan threw up his sleeves and put his hands behind his back, walking away like a dragon and a tiger.
Over there, Dongming Ziyu helped Shangguan Ruoli back to the room without saying a word and did not ask Qu Xiaohan about his purpose of coming.
"Ahem, um..." Shangguan Ruoli knew that his big iceberg was jealous, so he explained honestly: "He wants the manufacturing technology of firecrackers and artillery."
Dongming Ziyu said softly: "I guessed that the appearance of artillery at the border would definitely attract the attention of all forces, but I didn't expect that he would be the first to come."
Shangguan Ruoli raised his eyebrows, "Who do you think it could be? Nanyun Lengyue?"
His tone and eyes were strange, full of jealousy and warning.
"Pfft!" Dongming Ziyu laughed, pinched her little nose, and said dotingly: "Don't have random thoughts in your little head!"
"Your Majesty, Nanyun Lengyue wants to see you!" Mo Xiang's words came at the right time.
Shangguan Ruoli almost tripped over the high threshold, but luckily Dongming Ziyu supported her.
Shangguan Ruoli's smile was distorted, and he gritted his teeth and said: "That sexy fox is really here!"
Dongming Ziyu was amused by her little way of protecting her food. He lowered his head and kissed her pouty red lips hard, "Okay, my king's people, my king's heart."
It’s all yours!”
Shangguan Ruoli curled his lips, "I know very well that you are straight, but that ladyboy is not necessarily straight."
"What does shemale mean?" Dongming Ziyu carefully helped her sit on the soft platform and humbly asked for advice.
Shangguan Ruoli rolled his eyes and said, "It's just a hermaphrodite, two chairs."
"You, if Nanyun Lengyue knew that you commented on him like this, he would probably vomit blood." Dongming Ziyu placed a cushion on her lower back to make her lean more comfortable.
"Nanyun Lengyue has the Japanese pirates' guns and Japanese prisoners in his hands. He should have come for the artillery." Shangguan Ruoli leaned on the cushion and honestly confessed: "I have already told Qu Xiaohan that we sank the pirate ship before.
The location.”
"Well," Dongming Ziyu responded lightly, opened the closet, took out his clothes, and began to change, "I will not promise anything to Nanyun Lengyue, but Qu Xiaohan's people may not be watched by anyone.
, whether Nanyun Lengyue will get the artillery is beyond my control."
Even if you can't get artillery from here, it is not difficult to gather manpower to grab a cannon from the Japanese pirate ship or from the Dongming border pass.
Shangguan Ruoli said with a smile: "I'm just telling you that you make a decision based on your own considerations."
She knew that he told her this because he did not want to have any conflicts with her because of outsiders, and a lot of the unhappiness caused by Nan Yun Leng Yue disappeared in her heart.
Naturally, Dongming Ziyu would not exchange the technology of blunderbuss and artillery for anything. He only said that the matter was of great importance and that he could not make the decision. He would ask Emperor Dongming for orders before giving a reply.
Naturally, Qu Xiaohan would not transport the food he brought back, so he settled for the next best thing and asked Dongming's newly built navy to join Nanyun's navy to fight against the Japanese pirates.
Dongming Ziyu would not refuse Qu Xiaohan's food. Anyway, there are still two Japanese pirate warships missing, so it is not impossible to cooperate with Nanyun.
Anyway, as long as we see traces of Japanese pirate warships, we will not let them go no matter what.
Shangguan Ruoli met Qu Xiaohan once, and Dongming Ziyu was so jealous that he never let her out of the backyard again.
A few days later, after sending away Qu Xiaohan and Nanyun Lengyue, Dongming Ziyu pursued and suppressed the two Japanese pirate warships. At the same time, he built ships and cannons, built treasure islands, and trained the navy...
At the same time, numerous papers to impeach Dongming Ziyu for forcing him to buy grain arrived in the capital, but were suppressed by Emperor Dongming himself.
After being the emperor for more than 20 years, Emperor Dongming's mind was still clear at critical moments.
He knew that the ship carrying military rations had been burned, and he also knew that Dongming Ziyu was out of rations.
When the army is short of food and grass, it is allowed to requisition food on the spot. Is it possible that he is allowed to watch his army starve to death?
This time Dongming Ziyu went on an expedition and the food was almost exhausted. He was almost unable to help. The only thing that could solve the problem for Dongming Ziyu was this memorial.
This excerpt is too exaggerated. Why disturb the people? How could his army still fight without disturbing the people? Why didn't he even dare to fart when being robbed by Japanese pirates?
I just don’t know what it means!
Emperor Dongming issued an edict, angrily reprimanding local officials for their incompetence in fighting Japanese pirates and their failure to supervise food and grass management, and demoted them all.
In the eyes of Emperor Dongming, Dongming Ziyu did not complain to the court about poverty and asked for food. He easily obtained a treasure island and expanded the territory of Dongming. This was enough to offset the mistake of forced purchase. Besides, he did not give them money.
? It’s not a free grab?
He named the treasure island Yizhou and sent it to the magistrate to take office. According to the report from the magistrate of Yizhou, the island has spring-like weather all year round, abundant resources, and a warm climate. Rice can be harvested twice a year. Moreover, it is the center of fishing boats traveling between the East China Sea and the South China Sea.
A necessary place to pass through, the geographical location is important both in military and commercial terms.
With Dongming having such a good place, Emperor Dongming no longer had any temper towards Dongming Ziyu.
But now that Dongming Ziyu's family is the dominant one in the court, he must cultivate another party or several forces to check and balance Dongming Ziyu.
The fifth prince and the tenth prince are two brothers who are close to Dongming Ziyu. The sixth prince is from a low background and his mother's family is weak. The eighth and ninth princes are still young, so only the seventh prince can be considered.
