"King Qin, I just received a message from Wenzhou that the Zheng family's fleet is going north."

"Okay, Zheng Zhilong has finally taken the bait." Qin Mu threw the piece in his hand and asked, "How many troops did the Zheng family send this time?" How many warships are there? Led by whom? When to go? Have you found out all about it? ”

Yan Gaofei clenched his fists and replied: "Back to the King of Qin, this time the Zheng family dispatched a total of 20,000 troops, one hundred and seventeen large and small warships, led by Zheng Zhilong himself, and when the news came back, the fleet was gathering in Fuzhou. Also, according to the information revealed by Neiying, Zheng Jun was also assembling in Kinmen, and the specific number of troops was unknown, and the purpose of the assembly was unknown for the time being. ”

Qin Mu was a little surprised when he heard this, even if Zheng Zhilong learned that Great Qin had sent a naval protection mission to Japan, it seemed that he should not have sent so many warships and troops, and it was led by Zheng Zhilong himself.

This reaction seems to be too big, if something is abnormal, it will be a demon, Qin Mu was vigilant in his heart, and there are still troops gathering in Jinmen, what is this for? In addition to Daqin, does Zheng Zhilong plan to start a war with anyone at the same time?

"Are these messages coming back reliable? Zheng Zhilong really wants to personally lead more than 20,000 people to the north? ”

"King Qin, this news came from a battalion of the Zheng family that we bought, and our own people have also checked in Fuzhou Port, and the Zheng family has indeed gathered no less than 20,000 men and horses, and the number of warships is not much different, so it can be judged that this news is still credible."

If the news is correct, then Zheng Zhilong's purpose is worth scrutinizing, and he will probably have to deal with more than just the missions and business groups going to Japan.

Qin Mu first thought that Zheng Zhilong might be coming at himself, and then at the East China Sea Fleet and the North Sea Fleet. But if it is on the sea, Zheng Zhilong must believe that he can win.

"Immediately send an order to Cao Weijun, the prefect of Ningbo, to speed up the loading progress, let the caravan's mission go to sea as soon as possible, and at the same time order Di Zhongxing to act immediately."

"Yes, King Qin."

"Wait, send a ship to Gu Rong, send a ship to strictly inspect the waters around Shuangyu Port, and prohibit all ships from approaching Shuangyu Port. When the fleet set out, all the fishing boats encountered and merchant ships should be detained first, to prevent the whereabouts of the fleet from leaking, and tell Gu Rong and Di Zhongxing that Zheng Zhilong probably wanted to swallow them in one bite and let them strengthen their preparations for war, and let them be careful of the praying mantis catching cicadas, and the yellow finch behind. ”

"Yes. King Qin. ”

As soon as Yan Gaofei left, Qin Mu urgently recruited Gu Junen, Yang Shen, Jin Lei and other accompanying officials to make detailed arrangements. Now the garrison of Ningbo Mansion is only 4,000 people, and the 2,000 Janissaries accompanied by Qin Mu in Calais. The total is six thousand;

If Zheng Zhilong suddenly came to attack Ningbo, it would still be very dangerous, and he must be prepared in advance, and the garrisons in Hangzhou, Taizhou and other places must be prepared in advance to reinforce Ningbo. As soon as the police are called, they will come to the rescue immediately.

However, it is not appropriate to make any big moves on land now, so as not to startle the snakes.

Qin Mu really hoped that Zheng Zhilong would attack Ningbo. If he really dares to come to Ningbo, under the combined attack of land and water, Daqin's chance of victory will reach at least eighty percent.

After arranging everything, Qin Mu discussed it with everyone again and again, to see where there were any negligences, and did not break up until he was sure that there was nothing missing.

Early the next morning, the caravan and the embassy composed of thirteen ships, led by Qiu Bingzhang, the left of the Imperial Palace, set off in a majestic manner.

Qin Mu also personally went to Sanjiangkou to see him off, and many people also went to the wharf to watch, whether this time can knock on the door of Japan and open the trade route from Ningbo to Japan is very important to the prosperity of Ningbo, and the people of Ningbo are very concerned about this matter.

This is not only for businessmen to benefit from this, but also for the poor and white, who can easily find a job on the dock in the future.

In the past, the pirate leader Wang Zhi engaged in smuggling trade in Shuangyu Port, and the people in Ningbo not only did not reject it, but regarded Shuangyu Port as their food and clothing.

Based on this understanding, this time the King of Qin came to Ningbo, immediately planned to set up a city and a ship, and also sent an embassy to open up Japanese trade, and the people of Ningbo were enthusiastically supported from top to bottom.

Facing the people who were eagerly looking forward to it, Qin Mu was a little ashamed, this so-called envoy to Japan was just a bait.

However, the city ship division is indeed about to be set up, once the Zheng family can be defeated, the merchant ships of the South Seas can also come, and they finally have an explanation for the people of Ningbo.

After sending off the mission and the caravan, for Qin Mu, all that was left was an annoying wait. Fortunately, as soon as he returned to the Autumn Dew Garden, Yan Gaofei had good news that Zheng Zhilong went north, and it was estimated that it would take four days to reach Zhoushan from Fuzhou.

Four days, there are still four days, for Great Qin, this will be an extremely critical naval battle, and Qin Mu himself is now unable to do anything, and the rest is up to them.

Li Xiangjun saw that he had eaten little at lunch, and after eating, he turned around again, looking a little irritable, she made a cup of tea, brought it up and said gently: "King Qin, sit down and have a cup of tea, does King Qin have anything to talk to the slaves?" ”

"What's the matter? It's nothing to do with me. ”

"Since there is nothing to do, why is King Qin so anxious?"

"Yes, it's nothing to do with me, why am I so anxious?" Qin Mu's muttering to himself made Li Xiangjun cover his mouth and chuckle.

Qin Mu frowned, he had also experienced the battle of more than 200,000 people, and he was not so irritable at that time, why was he so anxious about this battle of the sailors? He reflected on it and felt that the problem was "nothing to do with himself".

I am used to the feeling of mastering everything, but because I am not good at naval warfare, after laying a good bait this time, I will have nothing to do with myself, and I can't grasp the victory or defeat by myself, I have to take care of them.

It is precisely because things are out of my control that I am so anxious.

To be honest, Qin Mu didn't like this feeling and was very unhappy.

But he also knows that he must accept this feeling and learn to release the anxiety in his heart, otherwise, as the king of a country, there are so many things, and if he is so anxious every day, I am afraid that he will not live to be forty years old, which is definitely not an exaggeration;

Throughout the emperors of all dynasties, there are very few long-lived ones, and it is very common to choke on farts at the age of thirty or forty, and some people say that the emperor has too many women, so his life is short.

This view is absolutely unscientific.

In ancient times, which minister was not a group of wives and concubines, and the emperor had many women, for a man, is there a difference between ten wives and concubines and ten thousand? The difference is not much, at least the number of intercourse will not vary much because of the number of wives and concubines.

The biggest reason why the emperor has a short life should be that he is under too much pressure and has too many worries.

For the sake of his own life, Qin Mu took a few deep breaths, and then said, "Xiangjun, come, help this king rub his temples, I want to live a long life." ”

Li Xiangjun stared at Mingming because of his strange reaction, and the cherry mouth was half-open, and the surprised little look was extremely cute. Qin Mu: "Poof! He kissed her for a while, and then lay down on the sandalwood carved dripping bed, "Xiangjun, don't be stunned, come on." ”

Li Xiangjun pursed the kissed cherry lips and chuckled: "King Qin, are you okay?" ”

"Okay, there's nothing to do, I said it, there is nothing to do with this king."

"That's good."

She added some spices to the cloisonné three-legged elephant trunk incense burner, then rolled up her cuffs, took off a pair of gilt water ripple bracelets on her wrists, and then sat on the edge of the bed to help Qin Mu massage her head.

"King Qin, Nunu went to see it yesterday, Lord Sima found more than a dozen engraving workshops, and then handed over the rare books of Tianyi Pavilion to them in batches for engraving, and the progress was very fast."

Li Xiangjun's voice is soft, clear and gentle like water waves flowing slowly, listening to it is just the same enjoyment. Qin Mu closed his eyes and enjoyed her massage.

"By the way, how many rare books need to be engraved and sorted out?"

"How can it be so fast, but there must be a lot, and now that six thousand volumes have been selected, it is estimated that there are still a lot."

"Hiss" Qin Mu suddenly felt like a toothache, "Do you have so many volumes to print?" No, no, this is the king's inner treasury to pay for it, and now the king's underwear is afraid that it will not be guaranteed. ”

"Hee-hee"

"You're still laughing, poor Qiao'er, you're still growing your body, and you probably have to eat pancakes to survive in the future."

Li Xiangjun couldn't laugh even more now, and his hands were soft. The body odor on her body is also getting stronger. She thought for a while and said, "King Qin, if you feel sorry for Neiku"

"It's panties."

"That's right, the slave is talking about the inner library!"

"Alas, forget it, let's say, what plan do you have to keep this king's underwear."

"King Qin, the slave is saying, if you are really afraid that our Xiang Concubine Niangniang will eat pancakes to live, it is better to let the engraving workshop print a few more copies of each book, these books are rare and rare books on the market, after they are printed, the reader must be rushing to buy them, so isn't this money earned back?"

"Yes, yes, Xiangjun has a good idea, pass on Han Zanzhou quickly, let him do this matter quickly."

Not to mention, Qin Mu really immediately summoned Han Zanzhou and said: "Old Han, you go and take a look, let the engraving workshop print more rare books of Tianyi Pavilion, remember, after the book is printed, except for leaving two volumes per volume for the Hanlin Academy, the rest are ours, you privately find someone to contact the bookseller, take it to Hangzhou, Beijing, and Wuchang to sell, and give the cost of engraving to the king to earn back." ”

"Yes, King Qin." This is a beautiful difference, Han Zan Zhou happily handled it.

Li Xiangjun smiled skillfully and looked forward to it, as long as Qin Mu was happy, she would be happy.

Qin Mu hugged her and said with a smile: "Xiangjun, how do you want this king to reward you?" In this way, change the king to give you a massage."

Li Xiangjun protected her crisp breasts and exclaimed: "Don't"
