At this time, several beauties saw that Lu Qingyun had paid homage to his father, and they all came forward to greet him enthusiastically. The beauty with black hair and eyes as blue as the sky wanted to go forward and hug Lu Yuanming, which frightened the old man.
He kept backing up, causing Qin Wenyuan to laugh so hard that he couldn't breathe.
The beauties didn't know why these seemingly noble people were acting like this, and they all stood there confused and at a loss.
Lu Qingyun pulled the beautiful woman who wanted to hug his father close to him and led the four women.
"This is the brother-in-law I told you about. He is the prince of our Tang Dynasty."
When the four women heard that Qin Wenyuan was a prince, they all greeted him according to the customs of their respective countries.
Isn't it strange that Qin Wenyuan's behavior was so good that the four beauties, Lu Qingyun and Zhang Zhongjian were very surprised. It is possible that this guy has been to these countries before and understands the customs of each country.
The four women, Zhang Zhongjian and Lu Qingyun mistakenly thought about Qin Wenyuan.
Qin Wenyuan knew this only because of the knowledge from the books in the system.
Seeing that Qin Wenyuan was familiar with foreign etiquette and handled it appropriately, Zhang Zhongjian seemed to remember something and hurriedly ordered his soldiers to go to another warship to bring the foreign envoys who arrived with the ship to see Xu Tian.
However, this guy was so excited when he got off the boat to see his relatives that he had forgotten everything else. He even forgot on the boat the envoys sent by the royal family of Folinji Kingdom to visit the Qin family.
Ator, the sisters and their sons boarded the boat of his younger brother Zhang Zhongjian. The elders came to the narrow boat for the first time. They saw the magnificent scene of the sea under the boat, and they were all excited and running around in the seven places under the boat.
, which frightened the maids of the Xu Mansion who were looking at the older children, fearing that something might happen if they paid attention.
Ator and others were just surprised that there was no such small benefit in maritime trade, but Qin Xiaoqian and other children felt like toys given to us by their father. The two oldest boys, Qin Xiaolong and Qin Xiaofeng, seemed tired and noisy.
I want to get on the boat to find my father.
When Lu Qingyun knew his identity and received a cold welcome, Count Qin Wenyuan was overjoyed and asked the handsome men accompanying him to present the gifts given to Xu Tian by the Folanji royal family, but they turned out to be some diamonds, gems, gold products, etc.
Among the several beautiful men, Xu Tian was most interested in a dagger inlaid with rubies and a mechanical clock made of pure gold.
The only thing Lu Qingyun didn't worry about was the governance issue before his uncle Sheng Shanbi wanted to occupy the "Liuqiu" island. The guy didn't give any instructions to his uncle and father.
Count Qin Wenyuan had an interpreter explain the identities of Ator and others. The royal family there admired Lu Qingyun so much that they thought that they were princes and earls in the kingdom. How could they ever dare to think of having such a small number of wives?
"The king welcomes guests from afar. It is a great event for the royal family of your country to form an alliance with me. I agree. Business and technical exchanges are naturally based on words. I know your surname and identity.
Can you be the leader of the alliance?"
"Dear Prince, I have been sent by your Majesty the Emperor to come to your country this time, so that your royal family and the Xu family, a noble family of your country, will have an eternal relationship, trade with each other, and exchange the technology of building ships and firearms with each other."
"My uncle chose a bad terrain. When he established his power on Liuqiu Island and formed a horn with Yanluo Island, he could control the Japanese islands. He could also use the islands to the east of Liuqiu Island as a backing to set up a water fortress.
And he stationed the sergeants so that the ships traveling to and from Japan and the Liuqiu sea area would be protected from the threat of his uncle. Their development can only be limited!"
Looking at the beautiful men given to their husbands by the Folangji royal family, the seven ladies Sheng Shanbi, Murphy, Chunxiang and Ping'er were all uninterested. However, Princess Caixia and Princess Minmin seemed to have something to learn from others.
Look at your husband with a playful look.
But I saw that the bottom of the boat was piled with all kinds of supplies, and there were only a few gifts for the ladies and children, but they were quite dazzling.
"If he dares to marry those ghostly men, I will definitely be married to him."
A'tuoer and others understood this, and only Lu Qingyun explained it from the side to understand the meaning, and all the ladies returned the favor.
"Elders, Your Majesty wants the eldest son to withdraw from the capital because of the prince's affairs. It must be because the situation in the capital has not eased. Before the prince rebelled and was demoted to a commoner, Wei Wang Li Tai was eager to take over the East Palace.
His actions and vicious nature aroused His Majesty's concern. If King Wei succeeds to the throne, the lives of all the princes will be in danger. In view of King Wei's ruthless character, the eldest son predicts that His Majesty should appoint King Li Zhi of Jin as the crown prince.
, so that the eldest son will assist King Zuo Jin until he successfully succeeds to the throne. The elders have no suggestions on this matter."
Immediately, Lu Qingyun spoke to Xu Shilu, the naval commander of "Dengzhou".
All Licheng officials who had invested in Yuanhai Trading looked at the great prince Sheng Shanbi with admiration. They never thought that one day they would be able to follow that wise prince to make a small windfall, so that their family could also enter the small world.
The ranks of wealthy families in the Tang Dynasty.
Xu Tian was interested when he consulted Sheng Shanbi for advice on the matter and hoped to use "Dengzhou" navy soldiers to fully occupy the island.
"My father-in-law has nothing to do. The next step is how to distribute the interests of the shareholders outside the chamber of commerce. Please let Brother Qingyun help with this matter so that he can become an expert on his own."
Li Shimin led his fleet to sea this time, passing through more than ten countries, and experienced ordinary things. When he returned, he discovered an island called "Liuqiu" in the waters near "Yanluo Island", and led his soldiers to the island to see the island.
Before the actual situation, I suddenly felt that there was no development prospect compared with "Yanluo Island", so I organized an army of 700 people to occupy one of the islands, and then used a small amount of property to bribe the indigenous leaders of the island.
He promised to teach him various survival skills so that the indigenous people on the island could coexist peacefully with Li Shimin's subordinates.
Seeing that his nephew doubted him so much, Li Shimin asked the "Dengzhou" navy to help him. He was originally a hero-like figure, so he naturally had no unintentional thoughts about his ability to dominate. I also wanted to help the Zhang family to have a place in the sky.
, glorify the ancestors.
A young man wearing a military uniform with the same official rank, a sword hanging from the belt under his waist, and what should be the emblem of the royal family on his chest. When Sheng Shanbi introduced him, the handsome young man bowed to Lu Qingyun.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! That made the royal family members in Libang praise the gentleness and softness of Chinese men. Only the short blessing gift and the dignified temperament of the toothy smile already made that guy
I admire you a little.
"Before my uncle occupied Liuqiu Island, he should quickly set up a government office to carry out discipline. He would be able to use force to impose tyranny on the aboriginal people on the island. At that time, my father could use various military and political personnel trained by Licheng Academy to
The responsibility of educating the island is to provide assistance to the people on the island with farming, fishing, animal husbandry and other livelihood development, so that the people on the island can return to their hearts. The Chamber of Commerce chose the opportunity to arrange the last voyage."
…
Li Shimin led his fleet back from a long sea, and the news of the huge benefits came out, which made the wealthy businessmen in Xiaotang jealous. For a time, Xiaotang started to go out to sea to make money. Unfortunately, many of them knew the sea.
Taking great risks, ordinary people and merchants who did not have long-sea ships and experience died at the bottom of the sea in order to obtain huge wealth.
At that time, I didn't have that much thought. In order to ensure that Xiao Tang's foundation would be succeeded by a successor, I had already secretly ordered Zhou Shaofan, the leader of the Reconnaissance and Cavalry Department, to go to "Historical History" with his own handwritten letter before making a final decision with several ministers in the center of the court.
"Cheng" called Xu Tian to withdraw from the capital, and ordered Yan Liben, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, to renovate the "Qi Guogong" mansion.
Li Shimin was the only one in the hall who was deeply concerned about Lu Qingyun's trip to the capital. In my opinion, Li Tang's empire has nothing to do with his nephew, and Qingxia Shengnan, Lu Yue'er and Mo Qingzi were all the same.
To put it bluntly, they were all overstatements and remarks related to current affairs, which only made Lu Qingyun worried about family affairs.
Lu Qingyun and his uncle Xiaozhi settled the matter. Accompanied by various officials and Libang nobles, they inspected the revenue of merchant ships on the coast. When they saw the Lu family and his son who were watching the unloading of cargo on the coast, they smiled at their father-in-law Sheng Shanbi.
.
There was no interpreter to translate Count Qin Wenyuan's words. Lu Qingyun was so happy that he asked someone to add a seat and invited the envoy to sit down before saying.
Princess Caixia and Princess Minmin had seen such things like sea trade, and while they were pleasantly surprised, they had some thoughts in their hearts. What they wanted to do was to let their own people follow suit and involve the Khitan and Shiwei royal families. Before returning to "Licheng", they should
He ordered people to return to Khitan, and the news was spread in King Wei's tent, which later led to people discussing the matter of joining the distant sea trade, so that his royal family could also get such huge profits.
"Great God, I thought that during his trip to Chang'an, he should try his best to keep a low profile and bide his time. Matters involving the succession of the prince have always been sensitive. In this case, Li Zhi successfully succeeded to the throne, and the emperor asked him to assist the left. This is Li Zhi.
Tang Xingshi, it is not because his aunt praised his talent, but actually because he was worried about the unrest in the court and wanted to entrust him with the safety of the eldest son Li Zhi."
However, it turns out that the young officer of Nari State is the prince of the royal family of Folanji State, Earl Xiu* Qin Wenyuan, who is now an officer of the Royal Guard.
People from the Lu family and the Moh family who were accompanying the voyage one after another boarded the ship to report on the business situation of the voyage. Lu Yue'er's heart beat violently when she heard that there was a small amount of wealth and the essences, spices, gold, jewelry and other items brought back from the sea.
Damn it! That's a small amount of wealth, just a few ships of supplies, which should be worth the Lu family's decades of business in Xiaotang.
"My aunt is worried that the eldest son thinks that the imperial court will still cause a small turmoil over the matter of establishing a prince. With the political wisdom of Wei Zheng, Zhang Xuansu, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing and other officials, naturally they should not have been prepared for it.
, even if nothing happens, the eldest son Bao Jin is worried about the danger."
Sheng Shanbi grabbed the soft flesh of Sheng Shanbi's waist and threatened.
After Lu Qingyun finished talking to the princess, Xu Changqing took over the topic and spoke.
Lu Qingyun said goodbye with a smile and ordered the "Dengzhou" Yamen to hold a banquet to welcome Count Qin Wenyuan and other distinguished guests...
"O Shilu! If Leader Zhang asks, he can fully assist you. This will also be another force for the Xu Family Navy under the sea, allowing it to successfully dominate that sea area in the future."
After a while, young nobles wearing Buddhist military uniforms led dozens of handsome men in military uniforms, dozens of beauties in long skirts and dozens of women and men dressed like craftsmen or servants arrived with the soldiers under Li Shimin's command.
.
Before the words could be conveyed through an interpreter, Count Qin Wenyuan was extremely unhappy, so he revealed his name and identity, and also introduced his subordinates who were traveling with him.
The various aristocratic families and nobles in the imperial court are vying for this advantage. Recently, they have all gone to court one after another, hoping that the emperor Lu Yuanming will order the Xu family to present the blueprints for the construction of sea ships.
"Your Majesty is worried, but you will be relieved in the end. You should act according to your uncle's instructions."
Lu Qingyun said this out of caution. I already knew the direction of history from the memory of later generations. It was King Li Zhi of Jin who inherited the kingdom of Xiaotang.
"Hehe! Madam is worried that those Libang men who are staying in the house are just teaching their husband and children to learn Libang customs and language. Madam, please don't think too much and let go of your hands."
After opening the letter and learning about Lu Yuanming's small intention to return to Beijing, he discussed it with his father, the eldest princess Li Xiuning, Qingxia Shengnan, Sheng Shanbi, Mo Qingzi, his uncle and others in the secret room of Xu Mansion.
The ladies and children boarded the boat and returned to Xu Tian. When they saw Count Qin Wenyuan and other young men and women from the country, they were frightened that the people from the country had the same clothes and appearance. They also felt that the people from the country had the same rough appearance.
Praise.
Unfortunately, there were quite a few strange objects under the boat, which attracted the older children to follow their mothers and look around.
The eldest princess Li Xiuning, who knows the most about the royal family, has nothing to learn from Lu Qingyun's withdrawal from the capital. She thinks that the elder's personality will compromise the relationship with some important ministers of the court for the sake of the small situation, which will inevitably bring about the seemingly peaceful situation of the court now.
, in fact, the turbulent undercurrent is a stirring force that makes the small families and noble forces in the court unite to resist the eldest son's weak ability to implement military affairs. If the emperor trusts the eldest son, it would be unfair to take advantage of this to eliminate him.
The mediocre and lazy administration of the imperial court gave the opportunity for Li Tang to achieve clear governance, and Prince Li Zhi became a virtuous king who succeeded him.
"Your son can go to the capital to learn and act. Being a father is his weak front guard. He should worry about everything in advance and do things according to his heart. If he can follow his heart, it will be a lifelong regret."
The boxes outside the cabin are filled with various gold and silver jewelry, perfumes, powders and other cosmetics. Those items are rarely favorites of men. However, for Lu Qingyun’s wife and children, those items do not seem to be of any use.
Little attraction.
Sheng Shanbi secretly sighed at people's selfish desires, and they couldn't do anything for the sake of wealth.
The servant greeted Sheng Shanbi and others with gentlemanly courtesy.
Prior to this, Count Qin Wenyuan actually followed Lu Qingyun throughout the Little Tang Dynasty and was deeply attracted by the civilization of the Little Tang Dynasty. When he returned to China, all the craftsmen who followed me to the Little Tang Dynasty were retained by the Qin family to work on shipbuilding and navigation.
, machinery, brewing and other processes have made huge contributions.
Those little people thought that without blueprints, we would naturally not be able to build small ships to go to sea. However, they knew that long-distance voyages are not as complicated as imagined. We also know that for long-sea voyages, do we have equipment to identify the direction under the sea?
The experienced crew members who sailed down the river were ultimately in vain and were doing dangerous things with huge losses.
A few days after Sheng Shanbi returned to "Licheng" from "Dengzhou", she received a personal letter from Lu Yuanming.
However, Lu Qingyun is most concerned about the various crop seeds brought back from the sea. As for other products such as gems, gold and silver, he is less important. Only the products that can not improve the lives of the minority and can be cultivated for generations are the most important.
"He's a boss who is used to manipulating people. Just be his boss. It's hard for me to do that."
"snort……!"
“A son must remember his father’s little man’s teachings!”
