72 Big Shots

Fortunately or unfortunately, the succession of the new king of the Ryukyu Kingdom came to an end, and after careful calculation, Hongtang and Wu Daofu's department, although they did not exert much effort in this incident, they also gained a lot.

King Shangfeng did not succeed for a long time, and after taking care of the Shuri Wangcheng preliminarily, he did not let Wu Daofu and Zhao Xingdou wait for a long time, and first sent Shang Zhong to the door, and spent a lot of money to obtain more than ten warships captured by Zhao Xingdou, and merged them into the command of Wu Daofu's sailors.

Although Shang Zhong was the confidant of the former King Shangning, he should not have been reused by the new king, but who made him friendly with Hongtang's subordinates and had a lot of dealings, so he was also reused by King Shangfeng, relieved of the responsibility of the imperial guard, and got an official body in the Ministry of Rites, responsible for dealing with Hongtang and Wu Daofu.

King Shangfeng is also smart, first of all, he bought the useless warship in the hands of Zhao Xingdou at a high price, which can be regarded as showing his sincerity like Zhao Xingdou Hongtang, but secondly, he also used the warship he had just purchased to hand over to Wu Daofu to prove to him his intention to rebuild the Ryukyu sailors.

This seems to have cost more than 10,000 taels of gold at once, which was a lot of money in the Ryukyu treasury at this time, but the benefits it brought outweighed the cost of the gold and silver itself.

Of course, as a commemoration for the sacrifice of the Hongtang soldiers and the sailor soldiers in the Amami Walled City, King Shangfeng spent tens of thousands of taels of silver, but he also showed more sincerity.

Subsequently, after the army assisted by Wu Shu and the army under the command of Zhao Xingdou changed guards, Zhao Xingdou's remaining whale department had more than 1,000 people and the ashes of hundreds of soldiers who died in battle, and at the same time took the rewards and benefits obtained from the Ryukyu Kingdom in this year, and returned to Huludao in a mighty manner.

This is one of the tasks given to Wu Shu by the Bengang team before leaving, originally as early as half a year ago, Lu Kui should have brought people to change guards with Zhao Xingdou's department, but most of the Hongtang Whale Department was ambushed by the Laike tribe in the snow-capped mountain range, losing most of the manpower, but Zhao Xingdou could only take these two thousand soldiers to hang overseas alone for nearly a year.

After a long time, although Hongtang's rules are deep and strict, in fact, most of the soldiers in Zhao Xingdou's department are homesick, and they have already complained.

However, it was said that the war on the Ryukyu side was over, and among the Beijing divisions thousands of miles away, Li Tianyang and them could be regarded as having gained a lot, at least the purpose of coming to Beijing this time was that they had achieved one or two.

Because of Lu Gui's connection, after Li Tianyang and Shi Yuanya got in touch, Li Tianyang didn't forget to continue to move around these days, but the other party was inconspicuous, so Li Tianyang couldn't figure out what Shi Yuanya's attitude was towards him.

It's not that I haven't made up my mind, and then I have to find other ways to climb the relationship between the DPRK and China, but this time Li Tianyang carries the silver money, in addition to his own expenses and taking care of the group of indigenous buns around him, most of the rest is also spent on Lu Gui and Shi Yuanya, every time I ask to see, I always have to carry a lot of gifts to come to the door, even if Li Tianyang consciously brings enough money, but compared to the expensive prices in Beijing, it is really a little stretched now.

However, the final result did not disappoint Li Tianyang, and after consciously snubbing Li Tianyang for almost a while, one day more than ten days later, Shi Yuanya's old servant Lao Xiao came to the door with an invitation, which made Li Tianyang overjoyed.

The meeting gift is naturally indispensable, and Li Tianyang has no guide, this time Shi Yuanya invited in addition to him, there is another person, an old man with the same beard on his face and a sharp voice, Li Tianyang can distinguish this person at a glance is the same as Shi Yuanya, he is a eunuch.

Eunuchs are not eunuchs, in Li Tianyang's eyes at this time, it doesn't matter much, he cares a little bit about it the most, but it is the identity of this person, the character who can be treated so carefully by Shi Yuanya, I'm afraid this old man is also an extraordinary person!

The situation in the Beijing division is actually not peaceful now, the "Six Gentlemen" tragedy in mid-August has just come to an end, and it is also the peak of Wei Zhongxian's life at this time, and the Donglin Party is completely planted in the hands of this illiterate father-in-law.

"Come on, Lao Li, let me introduce you, this young talent is a nephew I have befriended these days, and he also has something to do with the old Lu Tou who went to Ying Tianfu to raise him, surnamed Li Mingtianyang!" On the seat, perhaps out of Li Tianyang's diligent filial piety over the years, when Li Tianyang finished his salute, Shi Yuanya pointed to Li Tianyang and introduced it kindly.

"Yo yo yo, I said that you Lao Shi is okay to ask me for some food, it turns out that you are looking for me to have a relationship, I want to see which talent it is, can let you, the old guy, help?" Shi Yuanya's father-in-law, who was called Lao Li, laughed, turned his head and looked at Li Tianyang carefully, and saw that he was neither humble nor arrogant, but he couldn't help but nod and praise: "It's a good little guy!" ”

"That's, you don't know, don't look at the young man in the social circle, it's also a hero in the vast sea!" Shi Yuanya is also the head of the jaw, and when it comes to people's eyesight, those who can do it in their position naturally have extraordinary vision, although it is only a few rough glances, the old friend next to him can already see the abnormality of Li Tianyang.

However, Li Tianyang, until now, he still doesn't know who this father-in-law who Shi Yuanya calls an old friend, so he inevitably doesn't dare to speak out, and it's not easy to interject, so he can only sit silently on the side and watch the two chat.

It wasn't until Shi Yuanya and they chatted for a long time that Li Tianyang noticed the name of this father-in-law from the clues they chatted, but when Li Tianyang knew the name of this father-in-law, he was both surprised and happy in his heart, it turned out that this old man who seemed to be inconspicuous was one of the most important henchmen at the current nine thousand years old, Li Yongzhen, who was regarded as his right-hand man by Wei Zhongxian!

It is rumored that today's saints do not like to review and read the pieces, but only like the flow of strange and obscene skills, so the review of the chapters and other national events fell into the hands of Wei Zhongxian, a eunuch, which is also the reason why the Donglin Party has been fighting against Wei Zhongxian so far, but has been in defeat.

And Wei Zhongxian, although he is quite respected by the Emperor of the Apocalypse, but his family background was not good before he entered the palace, but he has never learned writing, and most of the things that review the chapters and change the cabinet votes are also from Li Yongzhen and Wang Tiqian, who have learned some articles and ink.

Therefore, although Shi Yuanya can also be regarded as a member of Wei Zhongxian's eunuch faction, compared to Li Yongzhen, who is the celebrant and the pen eunuch in front of Li Tianyang at this moment, it can be regarded as a small thing!
