Chapter Thirty-Seven: Taking the Red Embedded City

The idea is there, but it's not yet time to come out with it. Even in the face of Qiaoyin, he couldn't tell everything, did he tell Qiaoyin that the Ming Dynasty would die in less than two hundred years, and it would be ruled by the current Jurchen descendants? At that time, all the Han people had to keep their sons and become slaves of the Manchus?

Even if he is willing to say it, even if Qiaoyin worships him more, I am afraid that he will not believe it. Even so, it's better to say more, it's better to follow your own ideas.

"Yin'er, I know what you're worried about? But don't you see that the young master has nothing to do now? And I have made them ready to leave the black dock, waiting for them to find a new place to live, then there will be no leakage, young master, I will be safe. ”

"Young Master knows what Yin'er is worried about? I just thought of such a way to take them in because I saw that those people were pitiful. In fact, Yin'er also saw that the people of the Black Pier, whether they are men, women or children, who are not happy and happy, presumably this kind of life is something they didn't dare to think about before. And young master, I helped them achieve it, isn't this also a great merit? ”

"Yin'er. You don't have to think about it so much, people live for a lifetime, and danger is everywhere. If you go out and are accidentally hit by a stone or struck by lightning, you will sometimes choke to death when you drink water. Life is short, and it really seems like a passing cloud. And now that we are fortunate enough to come to this world, of course, we have to do as much as we like to do, so that we can live in vain, right? ”

"Also, the young master can promise that as long as we are not in danger, these people will only operate at sea and will not appear by our side. Do you think that works? ”

While persuading, Yang Chendong gently stroked Qiaoyin's back, reaching the ends of his hair, until he finally held his cheek and looked at it seriously.

"Really? They are just operating at sea and will not affect the young master? Qiaoyin was originally just worried about Yang Chendong, she was afraid that because of these actions, others would know about them, and then the court would punish the young master, in that case, it would be tantamount to her ruinedness, if that was the case, there was no point in her life.

What's more, Qiaoyin thinks that she is the young master's personal ring, and when she sees that some things will be dangerous, then she must stand up and remind her, which is her obligation and responsibility.

Now Yang Chendong said that there was no intention of "rebellion", as long as there was no danger, those people would only stay at sea and operate, and he became happy at the moment.

"Of course, what did the young master deceive Yin'er." Yang Chendong saw that people were persuaded, and his mood became happy, so he stretched out his finger and scraped the bridge of Qiaoyin's nose.

Qiao Yin also found out that he was so close to the young master, and immediately turned red, and after feeling the bridge of his nose being scraped lightly, he lost a look and said, "The young master is good or bad." ”

At this moment, Qiaoyin is so coquettish, coupled with her already good appearance, and the good food and sleep in the past two years, her body has already grown up and become "plump and full", all of which caused Yang Chendong's heart to wave, and even his body began to have some reactions.

"Ahem." In order to avoid his embarrassment, the most important thing is that he thinks that his body is only seventeen years old, and some things are still too early to do, and he should wait, otherwise it will be bad for his health. This forcibly suppressed the excitement in his heart, tilted his head, and said with a sleepy look, "That voice, the young master is tired, and he wants to sleep for a while." ”

Qiao Yin had already noticed the tent erected high below Yang Chendong. She was already eighteen years old, she had already known something from the mouth of the old mother of the Yang family's old house, and her face immediately turned red, and her heart was full of joy, because this proved her charm, but she did say with concern, "Young master, if you are tired, go to sleep quickly, and when it is time to eat, I will ask Humang to stop and call you." ”

"Okay, okay." Yang Chendong felt very uncomfortable at this moment, because he was a little out of shape in front of Qiaoyin. How to say that he is also a human being in two lives, and his mental age is in his forties, which really shouldn't be.

I didn't know how to deal with the embarrassment in front of me, so he simply tilted his head and really went to sleep for a while.

......

June 1447. The seizure of the property of the British public Zhang Futian occurred.

The eunuch Xining once wanted to occupy the British Duke Zhang Futian's house, but Zhang Fu refused. Xining's brother Xisheng led the slave to beat the wife of the auxiliary family, causing her to become impregnated and die. Zhang Fu sued Yingzong, and Yingzong was the original brother of Youxining and was enslaved on the side. Later, Xining instructed the magistrate of Qingxian County to falsely accuse Zhang Fu of encroaching on 20 hectares of people's land, and in June, he ordered Zhang Fu to return the land to the people, and Zhang Fu had to submit to the execution.

The dignified old minister of the Four Dynasties, the hero in the Battle of Jingjing, led the army to the south to conquer Annam, destroyed the Hu Dynasty, and made countless military achievements in the three northern expeditions, but in his later years, he still couldn't avoid being bullied.

This represents the enormity of the eunuch's power. In this way, many old ministers were chilled, but in order not to be affected by the pond fish, no one dared to stand up and say a few fair words. When the news came out, it reached Yang Chendong's ears, making him sigh.

From this incident, he seems to have seen what will happen to him in the future. Waiting for Ding Wei to become an official in Beijing, he had to deal with eunuchs, how could he do what others wanted at that time, if he was really offended, who knew if the same thing would happen to him? If this is the case, wouldn't it be like the English prince to swallow his anger?

has made so many contributions, and is an old minister of several dynasties, in terms of qualifications and qualifications, it is enough, but he still can't get rid of the fate of being bullied, which is equivalent to sounding the alarm for Yang Chendong, making him firmly believe that it is important to retain a sufficient armed force.

......

After January, good news came from the Black Wharf, after careful planning, Kaohsiung and Leng Song joined forces, combined land and water, and finally successfully took Chichicheng seven days ago and controlled the situation there.

The person who delivered the news also sent some reconstruction plans and drawings about the Red Embedded City, and they only waited for the sixth young master to agree to start implementing them.

Holding the map of the defense city of Chichicheng, Yang Chendong did not sleep all night, and took half a morning to improve the drawings again, and also marked the construction addresses of each factory, and then wrote a letter to Kaohsiung and Leng Song, congratulating them on their victory in the first battle, and also warning them not to be proud, but to expand the land cards and forces little by little in the way of assimilation according to the previous plan. At the same time, it is also necessary to do a good job of blockading the entire Ryukyu Island, and it is necessary to ensure that you can only enter and not exit, and you must not leak out what happened there, especially to the Ming Dynasty.

For the sake of safety, Yang Chendong's way of contacting people is carried out in the situation of secret letters, that is, writing in sugar water.

Sugar water is a carbohydrate, that is, organic matter, which is colorless when written on paper, but when it is roasted with fire, the organic matter is carbonized and blackened, showing black. In fact, all organic matter burns blackened.

This set of techniques is very simple to say, but no one knew about it at the time, and it is guaranteed that no one will know what is written on it even if the letter is dropped.

The Red Castle was captured, and the Black Pier began to move. Most of the factories and private and military camps will be demolished, leaving only a few small houses for ordinary communication. That way, even if someone finds out there, it's fine. Yang Chendong can finally sleep peacefully.

Since the establishment of the Black Wharf, Yang Chendong has been cautious. Although Kaohsiung has said more than once, the geographical location of the Black Pier is very remote and destined to be difficult to detect. But there is a possibility of being discovered, which is also a matter of necessity.

This also made him not have a day of real rest. Now, the Black Pier has moved, so that the stone hanging high in his heart has completely fallen, which also indicates the official end of a series of seaside layouts in the early stage.

The next step is to prepare the layout of the Beijing Division. For this matter, Yang Chendong found the old housekeeper Yang Hai again, and asked him to go to Beijing to find a good place in the suburbs, at least covering an area of between 1,000 and 2,000 acres, and he wanted to make a Yangjiazhuang in the north.

There are two reasons for this.

One is that he wants to grow potatoes, a high-yield grain that is not well known, so naturally he must be tested first.

In fact, there is nothing to try, Yang Chendong is just giving others a visual impact, fighting for a better reputation for himself, and even a better official position.

Second, and most importantly, he needed a relatively safe place. He didn't want to live in the Jingshi, so if there was any danger, he was afraid that it would be too late to react, and the time would be insufficient. And living directly outside the capital division, he has more security, and with the name of potato, it is naturally difficult for others to accuse him of something.

In short, Yang Chendong has been on guard, he will definitely not be like Zhang Fu, who is bullied and refuses to fight back.

People say that rabbits bite when they are in a hurry. As for whether Yang Chendong will bite someone, how anxious he will be and what kind of force he will be forced to.

With the seeds of potatoes and some farmers in Yangjiazhuang now, Yang Hai's housekeeper began his journey north, this time he will stay there until the sixth young master goes to Jingshi, he will hand over the position of housekeeper to his son Yang Neng, and then return to the old mansion of Jianning Mansion to live for a long time.

This was also agreed by Yang Chendong, and this time Yang Hai also brought his son Yang Neng, just to teach him what a good housekeeper should do.

It seems that everything is going well, Yang Chendong is only waiting for the coming year, as soon as Ding's worry period is over, he is about to enter the Beijing Division, to see the prosperity and victory there, when an unfamiliar guest suddenly came outside the old mansion.
