"Kunxing...... My little princess...... I became a mother, too. Liu Hong gradually muttered, immediately grinned, and casually took out a silver ticket of one hundred taels from his waist.

"Lao Gu takes it, and those who see it have a share! This king went back first, and Gai Ming'er came over to drink the happy wine! Liu Hong gradually stuffed the silver ticket into Gu Jia's hand, and walked as he walked.

"You two also take it, and the king is happy today! Hahaha! ”

……

It was almost past the unitary time, from the lecture hall to the Xishan Villa, Liu Hongjian almost hummed the song all the way, this is his fourth child.

He was only twenty-five years old, and in later generations he was still struggling to save money in the steel jungle to buy a house, buy a car, marry a daughter-in-law, and save a bride price, but now he has two sons, two daughters, and the eldest is almost four years old.

He no longer has to worry about the bride price of the garage, nor does he have to worry about his son's future outlet, his silver and his children are two hundred years ahead of the starting line of their peers.

When I entered the house, there were lights still on everywhere in the house, and the maids running in and out were particularly lively.

"Husband, you're finally here, why are you not at home every time you give birth, and Sister Jiu'er is crying!" Yang Xue saw Liu Hong coming in a hurry, and pulled him into the house to complain.

Giving birth to a child is a big deal, for a woman at this time, it is tantamount to walking before the ghost door closes, with Sun Xiuxiu in front and her in the back, every time she gives birth to a child, Liu Hongchuan is busy working outside.

"It's wrong for the husband, it's wrong for the husband, Xiao Jiu, I've wronged you!" Liu Honggradually had the heart to listen to his second wife's complaints, he was now full of children and his little princess, and as soon as he arrived at the bedside, he held Kunxing's hand.

The sweat on Kunxing's forehead had not subsided, and he looked at Liu Hongjian with a tired face and a smile.

"Husband, Kun Xing gave birth to a boy for you, you can name him." Kun Xing felt Liu Hong's concern and said with a slight smile.

"Ling Feng, Ling Yu, Ling Xue...... The fourth child is called Lingyun, my son has Lingyun's ambition, and he will become a great weapon in the future! Liu Hong gradually held Kun Xing's hand and kissed it.

"Husband, look at the sweat on your head, wipe it quickly!" Sun Xiuxiu took out a handkerchief and handed it to Liu Hong.

"Xiuxiu, go to the account room to pay the silver, and everyone in the house will be rewarded with one hundred taels each!" Liu Hong gradually took the handkerchief and wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said to Sun Xiuxiu.

This has become a common practice in the county king's mansion, and the same is true for Sun Xiuxiu and Yang Xueshi, the county king's mansion is not short of money, and Liu Hongjian is never ambiguous, so that the county king's mansion is very conscientious.

Sun Xiuxiu answered and went to the account room with Yang Xue, and Li Xiangjun and Dong Xiaowan sat on the side in the room to take care of it.

The two daughters are both from the water towns in the south of the Yangtze River, and it is the first time to spend the winter in the capital, and they are extremely uncomfortable, although it is already about to start spring, the two daughters still have a hand stove for each person, and the body is dressed thickly with three layers inside and three layers outside, so that it is impossible to see that Li Xiangjun has been four months pregnant.

"Seeing that you are all good, in your husband's heart, you will be down-to-earth, and when your husband is busy with the affairs of the court, he will definitely take you to travel all over the world and see the wonders of this world."

Liu Hong gradually looked at Kun Xing, then at Li Xiangjun and Dong Xiaowan, and said something for no reason.

But immediately after speaking, he was a little depressed, he said this sentence to Sun Xiuxiu four years ago, and said to Yang Xue three years ago, and now a few years have passed, and he is still busy every day.

The so-called wandering around the world is still just a dream.

"Husband, that's working for state affairs, and the people all over the world are thinking about Husband's goodness!" Dong Xiaowan put down the hand stove, and walked over to pinch Liu Hong's shoulder.

"Alas, when the child is full moon, I'm afraid that my husband will go away again." Liu Hong gradually sighed, family affairs, national affairs, world affairs, everything is concerned, this is easy to say, but it can only feel heavy when it is done.

"Where are you going?" Kun Xing said softly, and the hand that was gradually held by Liu Hong tightened.

"Go to Dongying! The husband will come back as soon as possible! Liu Hong said gently.

……

On the eighth day of the first month of March, the Dutch fleet marched north to Ningbo Province, and the local officials were not well prepared, causing the Dutch to land here, killing more than 2,340 civilians.

Although the Dutch were immediately expelled by the garrison of Shaoxing Prefecture, Zhu Cihong was still furious, not only beheading Zhang Shouman, the prefect of Ningbo, but also implicating hundreds of officials, large and small.

On 16 March, the Dutch fleet arrived off the coast of Weihaiwei in Shandong Province and sent ships to provoke around Liugong Island, intending to force the Beiyang Naval Division to go out of the base for a decisive battle.

In the evening of the same day, Han Yu, the deputy assistant of the cabinet, visited the palace of the county king.

"Lord Wang, there is a word under the door that I don't know whether to say or not." Han Yu is well maintained, although he is in his early sixties, he is still in good spirits.

"If this king says that it is not appropriate to talk about it, don't you feel uncomfortable holding it in your heart, say it, this king listens." Liu Hong gradually knew that Han Yu must have come because of the recent provocation by the Netherlands, and urged.

"A foreign country is coming, the coastal intrusion has been more than two months, the people in various coastal areas are panicked all day long, and the notes handed by officials from all over the country have been harsh on the cabinet and the prince, you should know about this matter, right?"

Han Yu naturally didn't bring Zhu Cihong with him, but only talked about the cabinet and Liu Hongji.

"Of course this king knows, hasn't it all been discussed? The Ming Dynasty is currently good at defending but not attacking. Liu Hong gradually frowned.

Throughout the ages, the common people are the most blindly obedient, they may be kind, they may be simple, but when they are really the enemy, they will immediately be the first to question, questioning the inaction of the government, questioning the failure of the court to take responsibility, and putting them in danger.

They don't think about long-term plans, they don't care who has done something for them, and they even forget the life-saving food that the court sent them when they were cold and starving.

This is the masses, this is all beings, this is human nature.

He didn't have the heart to explain to the people why the Beiyang Navy Division refused to send troops, he couldn't explain it clearly for everyone, this is probably the loneliness of the superiors, the more wise the person, the more lonely the heart.

"The subordinates know that what the prince is thinking about is all for the overall situation, but now, the subordinates still hope that the prince can lead the army to attack!" Han Yu said anxiously.

Even if he knew that the Beiyang Naval Division might not be the opponent of the Dutch fleet at the moment, the attack at this time represented the righteousness and the shouts of the people, so as to keep the reputation of the king of Anguo - the patron saint of the Ming Dynasty and their patron saint.

Instead of just cowering in Liugong Island, let rumors spread and abuse all over the streets, so that the reputation that the king of De'an County had worked hard for many years was ruined.

He thinks that this is not worth it, and the court and the emperor also have the idea of attacking, which is not the responsibility of the king of Anguo alone.

"Hehe, Old Han, I know what you're thinking, and I know that you are for the good of this king, but maybe you are too worried, this king doesn't care about those reputations at all." Liu Hong smiled slightly.

Although he and Han Yu are both understanding people, they have different concepts, in order to cater to the voice of the people, they put tens of thousands of officers and soldiers of the Beiyang Naval Division in danger, and ignore the efforts of him and his uncle in the past two years, he can't do this.

As for fame, it was already left behind by him when he wantonly raided his house, and he didn't care what the officials thought of him, and he didn't care what the people thought of him.

All beings are confused and drift with the tide, and the world is alone, there must always be someone to defend something and illuminate something for future generations.

Love what I love, do what I do, listen to my heart, and don't ask anything.

The most important thing is that he doesn't care! It's a big deal, can't you do it?
