However, although Wei Huo was very angry with Zhang Yanfang, he was even more afraid to reveal it when he met Zhang Yanfang: Zhang Yanfang's letter can determine the emperor's handling opinion, what if he participates in his own book. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Therefore, Wei Huo's attitude was very calm when he met Zhang Yanfang, neither too flattering nor domineering, but just reviewed himself: "Zhang Tiju, I was still reckless at the beginning, what Your Majesty did, I would never have imagined." ”

"In the future, it seems that I will have to discuss such a matter with Zhang Tiju."

Zhang Yanfang, who didn't know that Wei Huo guessed that he was on the secret fold, felt very strange about Wei Huo's attitude, and also felt very strange about what he said: "You weren't like this before?" Why is it that His Majesty does not speak like this just because of a matter that he did in the same way as you? ’

But Zhang Yanfang is still mixed in the officialdom, and he is not very familiar with Wei Huo, so naturally he can't ask him why his attitude has changed so much, but he just said: "Since this is the case, then do it according to Your Majesty's will." ”

"Now these pirates are locked up in my prison in Shanghu County, but in the future, I will let them make meritorious contributions in the sailors. Wei commanded the affairs, I haven't dealt much with Jin Shanwei, Wei commanding the affairs, you are also a military general, and in the past with Jin Shanwei in Songjiang Mansion, there is always a friendship, or you and I went to the prison, Qingzhuang was temporarily guarded by Lord Wei, and waited until Commander Zhang returned from the capital and handed it over to him. ”

"For the rest of the women and children, I will be resettled in Shanghu County." They still know that Zhang Xiaodong is going to the capital, although they don't know why Yunxi would let him go to the capital.

Although Zhang Yanfang only asked Wei Huo to transfer these former pirates to Zhang Xiaodong out of convenience, he didn't think about any deep-seated things, but Wei Huo was very happy because it meant that Zhang Yanfang didn't want to take all the credit in his hands, but was still willing to share some of the profits to others.

Zhang Yanfang ordered to bring out several leaders of Li Jiqian and these people to the lobby, sat in the place of the county magistrate, and added chairs to Wei Huo and Han Guang next to him, waiting to bring Li Jiqian and them out.

=======================================================

Li Jiqian has been in prison for several days. He himself actually thinks that the environment in the prison is okay, except that he can't get sun, everything else is not too bad.

The things he worries most about these days are his sister and wife. As the leader of the pirates, he was held in solitary confinement, and he had no idea what was going on with the others. What's more, men and women are separated from each other, and it is even more impossible for him to know.

He was lying in prison at this time, thinking to himself, 'I probably can't escape a dead word, it's just the difference between beheading or Ling Chi.' I just don't know what will happen to these brothers. ’

It's all my troubled and casual guesses, otherwise it wouldn't have come to this. ……’

He was thinking about it when suddenly an officer opened his cell door and said to him, "Li Jiqian, my lord wants to see you." "There are no other words.

Li Jiqian slowly stood up. Because he is the number one serious offender and knows martial arts, he has shackles on his hands and feet. And he hasn't been fed for the past few days, and he doesn't have the strength in his hands, so it's not easy to stand up.

Impatient, the officer at the door walked in and dragged him up and led him up to the lobby.

When he arrived at the lobby, Li Jiqian glanced around and saw the three Ming officials he had seen before: Zhang Yanfang from the Shanghai City Bo Si, Wei Huo, who commanded the secretary and concurrently served as the middle of the thousand households, and Han Guang, the thousand households in the back office.

In a few moments, the other pirate leaders were brought to the top of the lobby. Li Jiqian thought: 'Is this going to be executed now?' Shouldn't it? Even if it is sentenced to death, there is no reason to kill people in the first month. ’

He was thinking wildly when he heard Zhang Yanfang say above: "......, it was originally a heinous crime and should be executed." But the Holy Grace is not only willing to surround your life, but also willing to let you suffer from your sins and make meritorious contributions. ”

"Holy Heaven's grace, send you to serve in Jinshanwei. You must know Your Majesty's kindness, and you will make meritorious contributions in the future. ……”

Zhang Yanfang didn't hear what Li Jiqian said after that, he only knew that he didn't have to die; Not only do you not have to die, but you can continue to move at sea instead of being exiled to the deep mountains and old forests.

Zhang Yanfang has spent more than 30 years at sea, and he has a lot of feelings for the sea, although it is estimated that he will be used for surveillance, but it is also at sea!

Zhang Yanfang knelt down and thanked him, and then Zhang Yanfang continued to say that for their specific disposal, their families were all placed in Shanghu County, etc. In the end, Zhang Yanfang said: "There are still people overseas who have not come to Shanghu County, right?" Now we can recruit everyone else. ”

"According to Your Majesty's will, those pirates who have not been caught surrender can be regarded as taking the initiative to surrender, and they can join the Daming Navy Master in a dignified manner, and they will not be more meritorious than you."

The little boss Hua Xiong said: "Who knows if you are scolding us, wait until we call all the overseas brothers and then turn your face and deny people." ”

Wei Huo said: "Bastard! This is His Majesty's decree! How could Your Majesty go back on his word? ”

Li Jiqian also saw the holy decree at this time, so he waved his hand to stop Hua Xiong's next words. Huaxiong was born overseas and doesn't know much about the situation in the Central Plains, but Li Jiqian can know that the emperor will not take back the things that have officially issued the holy decree, the so-called Chrysostom Yuyan.

Anyway, I won't regret such a trivial matter. For the emperor, the lives of dozens or hundreds of pirates were just a trivial matter, and it was not worth losing the emperor's reputation. Li Jiqian still remembers what he told him about Zhang Shicheng when his father was still there, it was just a warlord who divided one side, and now that the Ming Dynasty has unified the Central Plains, he will not go back on his word.

Then the little minions below were also brought out to talk about it. Of course, the little minions are very happy, they don't have to die or be exiled, how can they not be happy? Many of these little minions actually have little to do with Zhang Shicheng, and they are not like Li Jiqian and others who are a little melancholy, they are all happy.

The family members were also escorted by the officers and announced the incident. Li Jiqian and other people with family members asked for instructions to talk to their family members, and Zhang Yanfang of course agreed, but he also strictly guarded against it.

Li Jiqian couldn't care about anything else, so he immediately rushed over to find his sister Li Sha'er and his wife, and said to his sister first: "How are you in prison?" Did the people in prison bully you? ”

Li Sha'er didn't look very good, but she was in good spirits, and said, "I live with my sister-in-law in prison, but no one comes to bully us. I heard that this Zhang Yanfang Zhang is an official and Qingming, and he also pays attention to prisoners. ”

Li Jiqian didn't pay attention to her later praise for Zhang Yanfang, and he was relieved to hear that his sister was fine. Then he said a few more words to his wife, and was separated by the servants.

Then Zhang Yanfang commanded the women and children to be placed in the houses of the official mansion in the city, and handed over the young and strong to Wei Huo. Wei Huo commanded his soldiers from thousands of households to take them away. Zhang Xiaodong, who was waiting to return from the capital, took these people away; Zhang Xiaodong was also responsible for the surrender of the remnants of the pirates who were still overseas.

=======================================================

On the ninth day of the first month, Zhang Xiaodong arrived in the capital, and then after the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies was recorded, he asked the guards at the gate of the palace to send a message to enter the palace to meet Yunxi. However, the guards guarding the outermost gate of the Imperial City could not see Yun Xi.

Not only did they not see Yun Xi, but they couldn't even see the eunuchs guarding the door of the harem. The outermost guards watching the gate must first find Yun Xi's close guards, such as Yang Feng or Song Liang and others. These close guards then went to find the eunuch who was guarding the gate between the imperial city and the palace city.

These eunuchs guarding the gate between the imperial city and the palace city then found the eunuch of the Qianqing Palace or the close eunuch of Yunxi, and the eunuch of the Qianqing Palace or the close eunuch of Yunxi reported to Yunxi. Yun Xi was able to know about this matter, and then ordered that the person to be met be allowed to come in.

The procedures on this road are very cumbersome, and the area of the traditional Chinese palace is very large, and ordinary people can't get the privilege of riding a horse and riding a sedan chair in the palace, so it generally takes half a day to enter the palace to face the saint at a time.

Therefore, it is a great courtesy for Yunxi to give some ministers the identity of the Zhongshusheren, because with the identity of the Zhongshusheren, you can enter and exit the imperial city without notification, and you can go directly to the Qianqing Gate to let the eunuch who guards the door report, which is much more convenient and trouble-free.

Yun Xi is also playing with his children today, but today he is accompanying Wen Yao. Hearing the report from the eunuch, he hurriedly ordered Zhang Xiaodong to come in, and he was going to the Qianqing Palace.

Of course Baoqin is not happy, she and her son finally had a chance to be alone with Yunxi in the first month, how could they be willing to let Yunxi go? I want to stay for a while. Yun Xi also considered that Zhang Xiaodong came in from Chengtianmen far away, and he couldn't reach the Qianqing Palace for a while, so he stayed for a while before leaving.

Yun Xi came to the Qianqing Palace, and Zhang Xiaodong had not yet arrived at this time. Yun Xi then turned out "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" to watch. Although the plot of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" adapted by Luo Guanzhong himself is basically based on "Three Kingdoms", the level ensures the level of the first version, and Yun Xi is a new story, so he can watch it with relish.

Yun Xi was watching with relish, and suddenly Wang Xi whispered beside him: "Your Majesty, Commander Zhang is here, do you want him to come in?" ”

Yun Xi put down "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" and said, "Let Zhang Xiaodong come in." "I also tidied up my clothes to give people I don't often see each other a solemn feeling.

Zhang Xiaodong then walked in with Wang Xi, and immediately knelt down and saluted after seeing Yun Xi.

Because it was private, Yun Xi waited for him to kowtow and then said, "Let's be polite." ”

Zhang Xiaodong stood up, but he still stood respectfully, his head very low.
