Huang Xigon came to the capital again with Wang Yu's funeral sent to the capital, he took the catamaran express ship from Nanjing to Shanghai, then took the flying clipper to Tianjin by sea, and finally turned to the river boat to come to the capital again. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info although the boat changed twice, it was several days less time-consuming than taking the canal.

The delegation that came from the south to mourn Wu Sangui arrived in the capital to catch up with Wu Sangui's funeral.

As soon as Wu Yingqi saw Huang Xigon, he asked: "My father ascended to heaven, and your king of the south is also the grandson-in-law of my father, why didn't you not see the prince come in person, but even the niece of the domain?" ”

Wu Shifan, who was standing on the side, was unhappy when he heard Wu Yingqi say the word "this domain", but on the surface he didn't have a seizure, but he just said secretly in his heart: Didn't Emperor Yongle seize the throne of his nephew Emperor Jianwen back then? Looks like I've got to be careful that my uncle is! Although it is only a battle for the throne, but the Son of Heaven is coerced to order the world, this throne is not much different from the throne, and my uncle will inevitably take risks.

Huang Xigon stretched to Wu Yingqi: "Little prince, the king of the south wants to send troops to Nanyang, and he also has to supervise the production of weapons, and now is the day to prepare to send troops, and he really can't get out." The princess is pregnant and should be avoided, so she cannot come. ”

Wu Yingqi asked puzzledly: "Send troops to Nanyang?" This Nanyang is not under your control? The name is already called Nanyang Company, why do you still want to send troops to fight? ”

"Nanyang is not the territory of Nanwang's family, there is still a big Buddha Lang Jiren castle in Nanyang today, and the countries of Taixi are also ready to move, coveting Nanyang. The king of the south is determined to be in the sea, and the castle of the Taixi people in the south sea is like a nail embedded in the sea area of our Daming, threatening the safety of our shipping line at any time. What's more, the big Buddha Lang machine man also slaughtered the Han people in Manila, and the king of Nan was determined to avenge the Han people and pull out the nails of the Taixi people, so he was ready to send troops to Nanyang. Huang Xigon replied.

"The king of the south is bent on opening up the territory for my Han people, and never cares about personal interests, which is really admirable!" Wu Yingqi complimented his mouth, but secretly said in his heart: Shouldn't it be a trick? deliberately said that he wanted to send troops to the south, but in fact he wanted to go north? Want to let your guard down? No way!

That night, Wu Yingqi took advantage of the end of the banquet and called Wu Shifan to his study to talk.

"Shifan's nephew, now my father has left our uncle and nephew, and left the Wu family army to drive west. My father is gone, and the king of the south is eyeing him! Who doesn't know the wolf ambition of this thief? It's simply Sima Zhao's heart! Wu Yingqi said earnestly to his nephew Wu Shifan.

Wu Shifan asked, "Isn't the king of the south going to conquer the South Seas?" Want to attack Manila and avenge the Han Chinese? His ambition is the sea, and his mind is not on us. ”

"Hahaha!" Wu Yingqi looked up to the sky and laughed, "This is called Darkness Chen Cang!" Do you think he will really put aside the orthodoxy of the Jingshi and the Central Plains, but go to that overseas wild land? Hum! He wanted our brothers to relax their vigilance so that they could send troops to the Northern Expedition! Don't forget that this thief sailor is powerful, he pretends to lead the army south, and he can go north by sea and land from Tianjin! If we don't take precautions, this army of thieves will come over, and our uncle and nephew will be able to stop him? ”

Although Wu Shifan was wary of his uncle Wu Yingqi, considering Wang Yu's threat, he subconsciously nodded and frowned slightly: "Uncle, we are all members of the Wu family, and we must be consistent with the outside world." ”

Wu Yingqi smiled: "Not bad! In the current situation, our uncle and nephew should be united, and we can't give the thief a chance! ”

"However, that thief has a strong army and excellent weapons, if he brazenly sends troops to rebel, with the combined strength of your uncle and my little nephew, I'm afraid they will not be opponents, right?" Wu Shifan asked worriedly.

"If this thief dares to send a rebel army to attack Jingshi, then he is a disloyal and unrighteous person! Not only the civil and military officials of the capital, but also the gentry of the Northland, and even the scholars of Jiangnan will not be on his side! If this thief is unknown, even if he has excellent weapons, but he has lost the hearts of the people, and no one will give him his life, this thief will definitely be defeated! But if our uncle and nephew are infighting, they just make an excuse for this thief! Wu Yingqi said.

In fact, it is impossible for Wu Yingqi himself to understand so many political struggles, many words were taught by Wang Shirong, and some civil officials who surrendered from the Manchu Qing Dynasty taught him.

More than 300 miles away in the port of Tianjin, a fleet of six flying clippers sailed into the Haihe River. Although the Qiongzhou army had withdrawn from Tianjin, there was no Wu army stationed along the Haihe River from Dagukou in Tianjin to Tianjin City. According to the agreement between Wang and Wu, the grain came by sea, and the route from Dagukou to Tianjin City was unimpeded.

The fleet anchored in Tianjin, and these ships not only transported sacks of grain and gold and silver treasures sent to the capital by paying taxes from the south, but what surprised the soldiers and civilians of Tianjin was that these ships actually came with their own porters. The ship stopped at the wharf, and the porters disembarked with gold, silver, treasure, and grain.

"Who are they?" A guy who opened a shop on the edge of the Haihe Wharf in Tianjin asked puzzled.

I saw that although these porters were also yellow-skinned and black-haired, and the clothes they wore were also short beats of Han coolies, and their hair was tied on their heads, their complexion was a little burnt, their skin was darker, their noses were flat, and their cheekbones were more prominent.

"Is it Nanban?" Even the shopkeeper didn't know who these people were.

"Not like that!" A well-informed businessman said, "The old man has been to Guizhou, Yunnan and other places, and has also been to Annam, Burma and Siam. ”

An official in a bright red official robe walked out of the boat, followed by dozens of young people dressed as Confucian scholars. The people on the dock looked intently, but saw that the official was Han Chinese, but his students were the same as the porters, all of them were barbarians with flat noses, protruding cheekbones, and darker complexions, but these barbarians were wearing Confucian shirts and square scarves, as if they were Han students.

"Huh? Isn't this Jackie Chan? A businessman from Shanxi suddenly exclaimed.

"Exactly! The old man has been wandering overseas for many years, and he has finally returned! Yu Chenglong laughed.

Three days later, when he was in the last dynasty, Huang Xigon took the initiative to play a fold, saying that the king of the south wanted to open up territory for China, not only to let the Ming Dynasty restore the majesty of the Han and Tang dynasties, but also to go far to the Han and Tang dynasties, open up overseas wild lands, and educate overseas barbarian savages.

"Turning barbarians into Han Chinese?" Yongli laughed, "It's the first time I've heard of it, if you believe that those southern barbarians can be educated into Han Chinese, it is better to believe that they can be educated into Tartars!" ”
