Banzhou is full of joy, first there is an old consolation to marry a daughter, and then there is a small consolation to make hereditary, nine seedlings and Banzhou native village to celebrate, Chen Shuai, who is not fond of alcohol, was poured into seven meat and eight vegetarians.

It's not that the Banzhou people poured him, in fact, the officials of the Banzhou Propaganda Department were very reserved in drinking with him, thanks to the generals under him, even if Deng Zilong led the troops south, there was still a group of old troops he brought from the north to the south to follow, which can be regarded as allowing these big-bellied men to find a place where they could drink freely, and they all drank without hindrance.

There is no door, naturally there is no cave house, Chen Mu stayed in Banzhou for a few days, with the girl and dowry to marry, and Yang Yinglong, Yang Zhaolong and other relatives, all the way back to Guangdong, they want to go to Chen Mu's mansion in Nanyang Weigang, and go to Qingyuan to worship the ancestors within three months to be considered a real marriage.

The girl's name is Yang Qingluan, and she waited for Chen Mu for two whole years, and she didn't say a word or even meet in Banzhou, and only when she was leaving, she saw Yang Qingluan with a red hijab, and she went south by boat in a sedan chair.

The dowry is a hundred boats.

The local betel nut in Chen Mu's dowry only means, but the local product in the dowry does not mean it, it is completely native.

Twelve handmaidens and twelve warriors, with all the necessary utensils except the bed, were filled with ten boats, and the rest were silver, wood, lead, and cedar boards.

Yue Laozi Yang Lie talked with him for half a night on the eve of his departure from Banzhou, and never talked about marriage from beginning to end, talking about his future and the future of Banzhou.

Unlike when he left Jingshi, on the day Chen Mu returned to Guangzhou Mansion, all the Qinglou were closed.

When hundreds of small boats sailed into the Pearl River, the warships on both sides of the strait saluted, and several flower boats stopped on the shore were merged into the send-off fleet under the leadership of the Yanguifang boat, but what Chen Mu didn't expect was that the person standing on the bow of the Yanguifang was none other than Yan Qingyao, who returned to Guangcheng with the army first.

Halfway around the city along the river, at the mouth of the Pearl River, a huge ship docked on the shore, along the way the family lined up a neat array and put the bird gun thump, and people shouted in the smoke of gunpowder, "Please Chen Shuai board!" ”

Chen Mu saw his Chihai.

Take such a large gunboat as a wedding ship?

Yan Qingyao jumped off the painting boat with his skirt, and calmly picked up Yang Qingluan, who was covered with a red hijab, from the boat, and said to Chen Mu: "Just hand over the bride to the slave family, the military master go to the big ship, Governor Yin and Zhang Butang are waiting there." ”

Yin Zhengmao?

What is he waiting to do here, it's not that Chen Mu didn't invite Yin Zhengmao, Chen Mu, a provincial parent official, specially invited him. Needless to say, Zhang Han was a noble man who carried Chen Mu, and he had to bow to Old Man Zhang a few times in the marriage, but he didn't understand what these two old men were waiting to do here.

There is also a cannon ship docked at the mouth of the Pearl River, not only one in Chihai, but at least two fleets with it, and all sailors on board, which is not very much like getting married.

Before he walked a few steps, the people who were watching were separated from a path, Bai Yuanjie led a group of people forward, Bai Qi and others held a pair of armor, Bai Yuanjie smiled and saluted, and said: "Nanyang Wei commanded the Guangdong Governor Bai to meet the Guangdong Military Affairs Co-ordinator, the Right Governor of the Nanyang Military Government, the Maritime Prime Minister Nanyang Chen!" ”

After saying that, Bai Yuanjie smiled and said: "Chen Shuai's name is really long, so it's hard to remember...... Please Chen Shuai wear armor, if you can't get the enemy ships on the ocean, you can't rely on gunboats in the past. ”

"It's not Brother Bai, what's going on, and you're still fighting?" Chen Mumeng circled, stretched out his arm to let him wear armor, and wondered: "No one told me!" ”

Bai Yuanjie pursed his lips and smiled, glanced at the mouth of the river, and said: "How can the battle be stopped, the Xiyi was expelled earlier, and some of them came again in the spring, and they sank a few ships in the coastal sea, they are afraid, but they are often still wandering in the Lingding Ocean, wanting to explore my reality." The sea is not very peaceful, and it is still necessary to rely on gunboats to open the way. ”

"What's more, there is also the Governor's Department, Chen Chaojue has already led the fleet to patrol." Bai Yuanjie shook his head and sighed: "I knew that I should have built you a big mansion in Qingyuan, I didn't think so much about it at the time, and the house was in Nanyang Port, which is good, and I have to open the way with a gunboat when I go home!" ”

Chen Mu shook his head and smiled bitterly, this is a sin of his own making, the bitter fruit can only be eaten by himself, buckle the iron arm, Chen Mu asked: "Didn't seal the zero Dingyang?" ”

"What I didn't expect, who knew that Xiyi sent someone again yesterday, saying that their governor in Luzon wanted to reconcile with us, and it was a Han who came, and after being captured, he went to the court, saying that the courtier would compensate them five hundred taels of silver, and asked for some cattle and sheep and fresh water, and was taken away."

It's child's play.

is completely different from the posture Chen Mu saw, the layout of the Pearl River Estuary in Guangzhou Mansion is completely based on a big battle, and he can go to Luzon for an expedition to seal the port with two fleets alone, "How can you say the same as guarding against the Japanese invaders." ”

"It's a wolf." Bai Yuanjie smiled lightly, the Japanese in their mouths meant pirates, "Bacheng just ran to this side and the ship had no food or water, so he wanted to say something, and said while walking." ”

After putting on their armor, Chen Mu and Bai Yuanjie walked to the shore of the boarding ship, and then they understood what was going on.

Xiyi came with five large and small ships, which should be pirates, and wanted to come to grab a big game, but they were defeated by Chen Lan before they reached the shore, sank one prisoner, and the remaining three ran away. There was a captive who said that he was an envoy of the governor of Luzon in Spain, blackmailing silver and water, and then today another boat appeared on the coast, robbing half of the people on the shore, but fortunately, the beacon fire along the coast spread early and did not hurt anyone.

As for such a big battle, it was not for Haikou, but completely to protect the officials of the two Guangxi who participated in the marriage.

Because from Guangzhou to Nanyang Port, there is a sea area in between, and no one wants an accident.

"By the way, I heard that you asked for the next edict from Your Majesty, what edict?"

Approaching the shore, Bai Yuanjie asked what he had been thinking about for a long time.

"The edict is useless now." Chen Mu shook his head and smiled, patted his chest and said, "When you land in Luzon, this edict will have a great effect." Chen not only asked for the next edict from the imperial court, but also invited a royal dragon flag and a four-character sail, guess what? ”

"It's not going to be for heaven." Bai Yuanjie didn't bother to guess, chuckled, and nudged Chen Mudao: "Anyway, you have to say sooner or later, the governor is waiting there, go quickly." ”

For the way of heaven, Bai Yuanjie also dared to think.

Chen Mu shook his head and took a few steps forward, and said to Yin Zhengmao and Zhang Han: "I've been waiting for a long time in the Governor's Department, junior Chen Mu, meet Yin Junmen and Zhang Butang." ”

"It's good that General Chen is here, Zhang Butang said to the old man for a long time that you are good, you won the heart of Zhang Butang back then, and you can't be missing for the affairs of Liangguang. Today is the general's big day, don't say much, Zhang Butang, let's board the ship. ”

Zhang Han stroked his beard with a relieved expression when he looked at his junior Jackie Chan, "What the military gate said is, board the ship." ”

They boarded the Chihai Sea from a small boat, the noose twisted the anchor, the butterfly sail rose one after another, Chen Mu looked at the red dyed canvas, and the corners of his mouth were hooked.

He asked for the four words of the imperial pen, and the heavenly empire is boundless.
