As a salted fish, I was forced to become the teacher of all ages

Da Zhao's title is really hard to get, some people never have that chance in their whole life, and although He Qing hasn't got it yet, at least he has the qualification to get the title, He Qing dare not forget this kindness.

What's more, in terms of life, He Qing must spend most of his time outside in the future.As for the so-called people in the court who are good at handling things, his only backer in the court is Huamanlou. In this way, does he dare to monopolize the achievement of finding Frangji this time?

Therefore, this backstab from half of the direct descendant was true and completely broke Huamanlou's defense.

Elder Zeng Ge nodded and continued: "Because of this, Your Majesty, regarding which countries we can make good friends with, who to help, who to fight, and what things are useful to my Great Zhao, Uncle Xishan has to come up with a charter. Where to build strongholds and supply points also needs to be considered by Xishan Boduo."

"That's right." Elder Fan Ge answered again: "Your Majesty, the establishment of overseas strongholds and supply points can actually be considered as a priority. For example, Sinhala can be used as a supply point along the way. Generally speaking, you don’t need a lot of manpower to do this. The Ningbo and Fuzhou navy are enough. If necessary, the Qiongzhou and Tianjin navy can also go to sea for the reason of Pingwa, and take turns to get used to ocean voyages... Specific matters It still needs to be dispatched by Uncle Xishan, and the old minister doesn't know much, so I won't go into details."

Huamanlou: You don't know much and you're talking nonsense!

These two bad old men are very bad, they keep saying that they don't understand this, and then they start arranging work for Huamanlou in an upright manner, but Huamanlou can't even think of words to refute, who made him talk so cheap in the past How about digging a hole for yourself?Who made him really know more than others?

As soon as Fan Ge's old words fell, Ying Guogong, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly said: "Everyone, everyone seems to have set their sights on the New World just now, but have you forgotten that there is another place that is also good?"

"Yes!" Rong Guogong patted his thigh: "Isn't there an Oceania here! You can also use this place to practice ocean sailing!"

According to the serious history, apart from the aborigines on the island, the Tasmanians, the people who first landed in Oceania according to historical records were really Chinese people in 1432.Europeans had never thought of the existence of the "unknown southern continent" before the sixteenth century, and most of the people in Kangaroo Country were immigrants from British bandits.

In other words, Oceania is currently considered a land of no man.

So why did everyone keep talking about the New World and not Oceania?

It's very simple. If you don't pay more attention to the New World, the land will be occupied by countries such as Franz, and there is a lot of arable land available in the New World, right?But Oceania has not been robbed yet, and according to Hua Manlou, [-]% of Oceania is a desert and semi-desert area, and more than [-]% of the area is arid and semi-arid. Most of the central areas are not suitable for living...

People are really not very interested in this kind of place where there is no way to grow the land.

But from time to time, since it is impossible to develop to the New World immediately, why not take this land first?And sailors also need to exercise, and they can also bring back local products from the Spice Islands, and accumulate the ability to deal with the aborigines by the way. It's a good thing!

So when Ying Guogong mentioned it, everyone immediately reacted, and began to talk about how to develop Oceania. After discussing for a while...

Ning Guogong stroked his beard and smiled: "Send which navy division to Huamanlou first to watch over the overall situation, and we all need to cooperate fully."

Hua Man Lou: ...

It seems that the admiral of the navy is Lingsun, right?What's the matter with you yelling at me?

And even though Oceania doesn't look like a good place, it's still an achievement after winning it. You old guys will definitely arrange for your nephews to make political achievements...

How about you fight to see who goes first?

Before Hua Manlou could finish his slander, Emperor Guangxing turned his head to look at him and said, "Most of the things we said today are up to you. If you have any requests, you can say them now."

Hua Manlou wept and struggled to death: "Father, my son is still a child, and I can't bear such a heavy responsibility..."

"Okay, that's it." Emperor Guangxing ignored Huamanlou's moans and said, "Huamanlou accepts the order!"

"Uh... Erchen is here."

"Jar is the Marquis of Xishan, the admiral of the Great Zhao Navy, the Commandant of Qingche, the general of Zhenguo, and the son of Yin is the Captain of Riding. Afterwards, the official order will be sent to your house." Emperor Guangxing stood up and walked to Huaman Lou kicked him lightly in front of him, and then said calmly: "It is not appropriate to establish a foreign affairs office yet. You can take over as the admiral of the navy first. In short... go and work for me."

"My son...obey the order."

621. Have you found the reason?

This was the longest meeting that Huamanlou had experienced after crossing, and when he came out of the palace in a daze, it was almost dark.

"Sin!"

As soon as she left the palace gate, Huamanlou couldn't help beating her chest and feet, with tears in her eyes.

Today's wave, there is a high probability that Emperor Guangxing and those old guys teamed up to trick him, and he couldn't resist in the end-in fact, leaving this matter to other people is considered a promotion and salary increase to start life It has reached its peak, and the clue can be seen from the connotation of Emperor Guangxing's imperial seal.

Let’s talk about Fenghou first. This part not only includes the achievements since the Liaodong Army besieged the city, but also the achievements suppressed before that—after all, in theory, the peak of Huamanlou should be Zhao Ren’s generation, not Emperor Guangxing. In this generation, Emperor Guangxing has always consciously pressed Huamanlou, and when Zhao Ren came to power, Huamanlou would naturally climb to the top one step at a time.

But the situation is different now. For one thing, Huamanlou’s contribution cannot be overwhelmed. If he is not promoted, many people will gossip, which will affect Emperor Guangxing’s reputation—just like Yu Shaobao in the Ming Dynasty. After the siege, many people criticized him for not being knighted.

Secondly, the maritime affairs really need to spend a lot of money to deal with, but this matter is not enough for a Xishan Guard Commander to be awarded an official position-you are a Guard Commander as a full-time officer, and you are not even as good as the three battalions. Who cares about you?So Emperor Guangxing gave him the navy that was originally established by Huamanlou, which was much more important.

Although the navy was still under his command before, it was obvious that there was a separate floor, but now that the name is justified, it means that Huamanlou has officially become the big boss of the Guangxing Dynasty.Admiral of the Navy, Commander-in-Chief of the Great Zhao Navy, is this enough?

In this way, you are a boss, so you are embarrassed not to work, right?

So this group of old things shamelessly burdened him with shamelessness—of course, it’s also one aspect that they don’t understand maritime affairs, but it’s impossible to say that they don’t have the slightest clue, so out of nowhere Hua Manlou behind the imperial study room heard Fan Ge say congratulations with a smile on his face, and almost couldn't help spitting at him: This old guy is the most hateful, always pretending to be innocent and making up for the knife at the most subtle moments...

Mr. Zeng Ge is at least making it clear that the chariots and horses are justified and well-founded, okay?

As for the Captain Shangqingche and General Zhenguo given by Emperor Guangxing, it is customary, and Enyin’s son is compensation for Huamanlou. After all, the extra maritime government office given to him this time belongs to the three no-units with no position, no establishment, and no salary. , not even an office...

In short, the idea of ​​the old mille-feuille cake is the same as before, and Huamanlou wants to cry in pain.

Fortunately, there are many things that Huamanlou does not need to take care of deliberately. The general framework for many things is already in place. Now it is only necessary to set the general direction. At worst, he can find someone to do things for him, otherwise Huamanlou Definitely begging for bones on the spot - what a joke, the young master is still busy carrying on the family line!

When I got back to the door of the house, it was already completely dark, and as expected, there was a small figure sitting at the door.When she saw Hua ManLou's carriage coming in from a distance, she immediately stood up and greeted her happily as before: "Master!"

The moment she saw Qin'er, Hua Manlou smiled sincerely: "I'm finally back!"

……

While Hua Manlou was here to heal his wounded little heart, the palace was full of chaos.

"Stop for me!"

"Don't stand!"

"Nizi, today you are doomed!"

There were outsiders present before, and there were more important matters, so Emperor Guangxing did not act in a hurry.And when the group of people left and took Zhao Ren to greet the Queen Mother and Queen, it was time to settle the matter.

Zhao Ren was not stupid, he saw Emperor Guangxing sacrificed the cane and then ran away. The two chased and stopped all the way from the Palace of Compassion and Tranquility to the Palace of Fengtian. It was as if a sports meeting was held in the palace, and the atmosphere was extremely joyous.

"Father, even if you want to kill me, you have to give me a chance to distinguish?"

After all, Zhao Ren was young, with good physical strength, and played around outside from time to time, so running wildly for a while was no problem, but Emperor Guangxing was exhausted.

At this moment, he didn't know where he lost the cane, and he couldn't chase after him. He could only support his knees with his hands and pant heavily. Xu Dacheng, who had been running with Emperor Guangxing, was not much better, but he still worked hard. Supporting the former, for fear that Emperor Guangxing would fall and bump into him, the hard work looked more and more sad.

Hearing Zhao Ren want to explain, Emperor Guangxing gasped and said, "Okay...Okay! I'll give you a chance to quibble, and I'd like to hear what you have to say!"

Don't give it a chance, it won't work, Shuzi is too good at running, he can't catch up.

Zhao Ren cleared his throat with a cough, and then said, "Father, aside from other things, the rebel army was already approaching the city when I rushed to Lanzhou Mansion, but how many soldiers are available for Lanzhou Mansion? Five thousand! Ruoerchen If you don’t want to think of a way, how can you get the rebels back?”

"Hanging the ancestral tablet on the top of the city, is it reasonable for you?" Emperor Guangxing shouted angrily: "The dynasty governs the world with benevolence and filial piety..."

"Then what about the common people?" Zhao Ren interrupted Emperor Guangxing directly: "So I should watch the soldiers die in battle, the Lanzhou Mansion be destroyed, and the common people be slaughtered?"

These words made Emperor Guangxing speechless for a moment.

Zhao Ren continued: "Father, the sons and ministers are not disrespectful to the ancestors. The purpose of inviting the ancestors is to let them see how unscrupulous the future generations are. How dare they collude with other races to rebel! So compared with Uncle Wang , Erchen...does it make sense?"

The reasoning seems to be correct, but for some reason, Emperor Guangxing always felt that his blood pressure soared when he heard it: "You still have reason? Okay, capital crime is inevitable, life crime is inevitable, stop for me!"

Zhao Renyi gritted his teeth and stomped his feet: "Father, you... okay, I will admit to being beaten up, and my father will wait for my son to finish talking about all the things I saw in Lanzhou Mansion this time!"

In fact, if it wasn't for discussing overseas affairs today, Zhao Ren would probably have to talk to Emperor Guangxing first after he came back.

"Fart your fart!" Emperor Guangxing said a rare foul word.

Zhao Ren was speechless for a while, and then he sat down slowly on the ground of Fengtian Hall: "All the idlers get out! Xu Banban, bring some cushions, I have a long talk."

Xu Dacheng looked at Emperor Guangxing when he heard the words, and left after seeing him nodding.

Zhao Ren sorted out his thoughts for a while, and then said: "Father, what I want to talk about this time starts from the tax debate with Huamanlou that day. At that time, Huamanlou asked his ministers: Great Zhao is rich, and the people are extravagant. The wind is blowing up, and the arable land is getting more and more, but why are the taxes getting less and less?"

Emperor Guangxing, who thought that Zhao Ren was going to mess around, was taken aback for a moment, but then he sat down on the ground slowly, and asked without answering, "Have you found the reason?"

"I guess I found it." Zhao Ren sighed: "And after I found it, my son is really very angry..."

(Don't worry, the hole dug will of course be filled. Isn't this just the end of the meeting?)

622. Let's use our own means

In recent days, Zhao Ren has been honest and honest, at most he was fighting with Jin'er along the way, and he didn't act like a monster at all, so that Hua Manlou completely ignored his temper - this stinky brother is the worst Don't worry, what he wants to do is more troublesome than opening the sea and going to the New World, and he will definitely pull Hua Manlou into the pit together.

But at the moment Huamanlou didn't realize it, he was completely relaxed and was enjoying the feeding of his little daughter-in-law.

When the young master came home, the family naturally wanted to celebrate. The old housekeeper set up a large table of food. At this moment, he was standing next to Huamanlou, wiping tears and chattering about family affairs—the old man was really frightened this time. Now, the master and the young master are both on the battlefield. What if something happens, what can the family do?

When the meal was over, the old man was still complaining that Huamanlou hadn't worshiped his ancestors for three years, and in the end, Qin'er, who couldn't stand it any longer, drove him away: "No winks, are you living like a dog?"Don't you know that Xiaobie is better than a newlywed!

After Qin'er left, the three of them who followed Huamanlou to Lanzhou Mansion also had a tacit understanding, even though Qi Wanrong made a "huh" before leaving, in order to laugh at the two sitting in the room. Dressed up the whole afternoon, the woman with watery eyes at this moment.

The old housekeeper is not the only one who is frightened?

When Huamanlou left, the situation in Lanzhou Mansion was really not optimistic. Before the news came back, the atmosphere in the mansion was extremely depressing. In the dead of night, both of them couldn't help crying, fearing that Huamanlou would not come back.

Wen Liang and Qiaoqiao hadn't seen each other for several months, and both Wen Liang and Qiao Qiao looked a little relieved, even when they were eating, they couldn't bear to leave Huamanlou's eyes, as if he disappeared in the blink of an eye.

So Huamanlou didn't want to be hypocritical anymore. After everyone else had gone out, he looked at Wen Liang with a shy face, and then at Qiaoqiao with hazy eyes. ?”

"Bah." Wen Liang spat, but in the end she didn't refuse decisively, after all, in this era... Cough, it's very common, and she has a body that gets tired easily... But Qiaoqiao always likes to play tricks with Huamanlou , where is she not willing?

So, the three of them fought for the landlord in the middle of the night, and the fight was so hearty that Huamanlou lost hundreds of millions...

The fairy is delicate and fleshy, and her heart is drunk with Bi Luoyin.The deep affection not only leads to the Taoyuan meeting, but also the Xi Shi willow leaves and frowns.

The spring in the cave grows a square inch of land, and the flowers and butterflies love each other in spring.It is difficult to distinguish between you and me, God-given and human beings match human beings.

(Hey, why is there a poem here?)

……

Early the next morning, while Hua Manlou was still sleeping soundly, someone from the palace arrived, bringing the official canonization decree, a full set of ceremonial guards for the marquis, and a carriage specially for the royal family.

If someone else encounters this, they will probably get up in the early morning to take a shower, burn incense and change clothes, maybe they will pay respects to their ancestors to comfort their spirits in the sky, but Huamanlou doesn't take it seriously at all. After waiting for half an hour, after receiving the decree, they told Emperor Guangxing that he would rest at home for three days, and said to the little Huangmen who had brought the message to Zhao Ren with a mocking face, telling him to tell the prince to accept the reformation. ...

The old housekeeper who helped set up the incense table was about to have a heart attack after hearing what his young master said.

Just after noon, people who came to give gifts and invite banquets came.

"It's no wonder these people are trying their best to get promoted, and it's no wonder why promotion has to be talked about together with getting rich..." Hua Manlou looked at all kinds of gifts, flipped through the gift list, and clicked his tongue: "How much money is this?" what?"

When Huamanlou was promoted before, there were not many people who gave gifts. At most, some subordinates and some people who had a good relationship with him came to congratulate, but this is different from the past. Send someone to give something, even if there was a quarrel in the past, it will be like this, officialdom...

Wen Liang, who was numb in the night, was tired of Hua Manlou's side at the moment, she glanced at those things and said with a smile: "It's not much, it doesn't exceed 20 taels of silver."

Hua Manlou laughed: "After all, it is the daughter of Ge Laofu, who has such a broad vision! Tell me, how much has your father been greedy for ink in recent years? Why don't you go back to your mother's house and steal his yellow and white brochures, and we will report him to the police?" Your Majesty may say that there is still a large reward..."

Wen Liang slapped Huamanlou: "What are you talking about, this is not enough for half a month's income for you, Marquis of Xishan, right?"

Hua Manlou chuckled: "That is to say, I have no place to spend my money. Recently, money has become more and more like dung, but why do they use dung to disgust me?"

Wen Liang was amused by Hua Manlou's strange words, but when he was about to speak, Hua Manlou handed over a gift list: "Look, especially this person, this is not only disgusting, it's an insult."

Wen Liang took it over, glanced at it, and then focused his eyes: "Liu Chao, the left servant of the Ministry of Officials? Why did he send so much?"

"Really?" Hua Manlou squinted his eyes, playing with the taste: "You really invited me to play in Suyunxuan, it is said that the Liuyun girl there is excellent in both sex and art... Don't look at me like that, Qi Pengfei said, I It's life and death with gambling and drugs."

"You..." Wen Liang was disrupted by Hua Manlou, and he couldn't laugh or cry: "Don't make trouble, why did Liu Chao invite you?"

Hua Manlou led Wen Liang to the study room, told about what happened in Lanzhou Mansion, and then said: "Xu understands that the way I was placed in Lanzhou Mansion made me very angry, so he wants to kneel down and beg for my forgiveness?"

Wen Liang straightened her hair, frowned and said: "This person is bold, evil-minded, and ruthless. This time I invite you may not be because of fear of reconciliation. What are you going to do?"

Hua Manlou shrugged: "How about letting it dry first? There are too many people entertaining me today, so what kind of onion is he?"

Wen Liang smiled and said: "It's fine to leave it alone, as you are, you should have a little temper, and judging by his attitude, I think he will never give up without success once."

With a good wife at home, Hua Manlou didn't even bother to think about it, and asked, "Then what should we do next?"

"Then it depends on what you think. Some people will choose to trade with the other party when encountering this kind of thing, that is, you give up pursuing this matter in exchange for something in his hands or support on a certain matter; Some people will choose to declare war head-on, and bring things out... Oh, don't make trouble." Wen Liang patted Hua Manlou's mischievous paws, and said angrily, "Do you want someone to give you advice?"

Hua Manlou shrugged: "Then what do you think I should do?"

Wen Liang said: "You didn't get any evidence for the burning of the palace, and now you can't help him even if you expose the matter, so you can ask him to do something for you, if he doesn't want to tear his face, he will generally agree , and then slowly grab his pigtails. In fact... He invited you to the banquet this time, most likely because of this deal."

"And if you feel that you can't swallow this breath..." Wen Liang patted Hua Manlou's hand again, gave him a sideways look and said, "Then each will use his own methods."

633. Are you kidding me?

Each means something...

Hua Manlou was overjoyed upon hearing this.

Wen Liang asked strangely: "What are you laughing at? Is there something wrong with what I said?"
