Chapter 783: It's Back~!
"Hey, Renbiao, you're here too~?"
With a strong internal force to open the way, Li Zexuan and the three finally came to the front of the crowd, but they met an old acquaintance, who else could it be if it wasn't Wang Renbiao?
"Hehe, it's Xiao Xuan~! I also just received the news in the morning, but fortunately I had nothing to do, so I came over to take a look~! ”
Wang Renbiao smiled, looked at Li Zexuan and said,
"Oh, by the way, Renbiao, I forgot to ask you before, did the fleet find the kind of rubber I told you earlier on the South Seas?"
A few days ago, he asked Wang Renbiao to help find out the news, but he only cared about Meng Youliang's situation, but forgot about his own business.
When Wang Renbiao heard this, he looked stunned, then shook his head and said: "I don't know this yet, I just asked people to help find out the news of the fleet before, and I didn't ask about the harvest of my fleet. ”
Li Zexuan was speechless for a moment, and said in his heart that Wang Renbiao's heart is really big, and he doesn't care about his own business at all, and this attitude of treating money like dung is comparable to what he has.
"Okay, then we can only wait for a while, and the fleet will come back and look at it again~!"
Li Zexuan said helplessly.
"Huh~! Look, the fleet is coming~! The flotilla is coming~! ”
At this moment, a mast finally appeared on the surface of the Bahe River, and then the figure of a huge building boat slowly surfaced, exposed to everyone's field of vision. I don't know who discovered this phenomenon and shouted loudly, and the crowd on the dock suddenly boiled.
"It's finally here~! It's finally here! ”
"It's been almost five months at sea, and the fleet is finally back~! God willing, the child's father must be fine~! ”
The people watched the more and more boats appearing on the Bahe River, and one by one they began to talk to each other excitedly, most of them praying for the safety of their families.
"Five months, now it's really a few happy and a few sad~!"
Li Zexuan had already led Lan'er to stand in front of the crowd at this time, he looked at the dense boats on the river, sighed, and said with a complicated mood.
The details of the battle in which the fleet was attacked at sea were not said by Wang Renbiao last time, but Li Zexuan later got more detailed information from Li Chengqian, of course, the source of the intelligence must have something to do with Li Er.
Therefore, he knew very well that the fleet was not without casualties this time, not to mention that on the sea route to the South Seas countries, the crew members who were taken away by storms and diseases, just the sneak attack of the pirates that night, caused the fleet to lose 28 soldiers and 12 people. This means a war that will make forty Tang people die in the sea, and there will be no corpses! Let forty originally happy families become shattered in an instant!
I don't know how many tears will be provoked by then?
"Woo~!"
With the passage of time, more than 1,500 merchant ships that had gone south to trade five months ago all appeared in everyone's field of vision, and the ship was in the center of the building, remembering the desolate horn sound, and then all the ships behind began to anchor and lower their canvases, and slowly docked.
"I'm home~! We're finally home~! ”
On a merchant ship, Meng Youliang stood on the deck and held on to the railing, looking at the grand scene of the crowds on the shore, he sighed in his heart, this time he went to sea, and he was almost separated from his family forever.
There is far more than one person who has the same idea as him, whether it is the civilian man on the civilian merchant ship or the sailor soldiers on the official ship, looking at the dock close at hand, everyone can't suppress the joy in their hearts. Near-hometown timidity, near-hometown timidity, they will be able to go home soon, what could be more important than that?
"Lord Wang, you can go ashore~!"
The main ship had already docked at this time, and someone had already laid the planks, and then Wu Di came to Li Xiaogong and said with his fists clenched.
"Well, this king is coming~!"
After a while, Li Xiaogong took the lead in getting off the main building boat with a group of guards, and Li Zexuan greeted him, arched his hands and said with a smile:
"Congratulations on the triumphant return of the prince~! I haven't seen you for a long time, don't come to harm's way~! ”
Li Xiaogong smiled heartily, came over and patted Li Zexuan's shoulder, and said, "This king is in good health~!" Count the days, Guozijian should have started school now, why are you still free to come? ”
Before he left, he entrusted his son to Li Zexuan to teach, at that time, Li Zexuan was still the secretary of Guozijian and had not fallen out with Kong Yingda, so Li Xiaogong's memory still stayed in the time when Li Zexuan was teaching in Guozijian, and he didn't know anything about the current Yanhuang Academy.
"Lord Wang, the little nephew is no longer in the Guozijian now. More than three months ago, I resigned from my position as the director of the Guozijian and opened my own academy, and now Huairen is also in my academy. ”
Li Zexuan knew that Li Xiaogong said this because he wanted to know about his son Li Huairen's situation, so he said it briefly.
"What~? Xiao Xuan, are you not in Guozijian anymore? Did something happen in between? ”
Li Xiaogong asked just now, he really wanted to find out the news of his son, but he didn't expect to ask such a thing that shocked him.
"It's a long story, I'll talk about it with the prince in the future."
You knew yesterday that this was not the place to speak, so you said to Li Xiaogong.
"Your Majesty has arrived~!"
While they were talking, on the official road west of the wharf, there was another group of people, and everyone hurriedly turned around when they heard the sound of "Your Majesty has arrived", and after seeing the bright yellow clothes in front of the crowd, they saluted one after another: "See Your Majesty~!" ”
The same place, the same loud voice, people can't help but think of the departure ceremony that Li Er held here when the fleet went to sea five months ago.
Li Er followed the passage where the crowd got out of the way, and came to the most edge of the dock, not far from Li Xiaogong, and then she paused, turned to look at the dense crowd, and said, "Flat~!" ”
The people were able to stand up with the soldiers on the ship.
Li Er looked at Li Xiaogong and said, "Xiaogong, you've worked hard all the way~!" ”
Li Xiaogong hurriedly arched his hand and said: "Your Majesty's words are serious, the minister is for the country and the people, and it is the duty of the minister to share the worries for His Majesty, not to mention hard work~!" ”
Li Er nodded, then looked at the endless boats on the river, and asked slowly: "Are all our Datang sea ships back~?" ”
Li Xiaogong said solemnly: "Back to Your Majesty, the 1,587 ships brought by the old minister, except for one that burned at sea, all the rest returned safely~!" And the thirty-two small countries in the South Seas have sent a fleet of envoys to come back with their ministers to worship the Tang Dynasty and His Majesty~! ”
