A Timely Wife

Both Li Ruosong and Chengdong learned about the affairs in the capital through the way of Prince Zhong. In recent years, Jinghaiwei has developed rapidly and steadily. Their ideas, the hearts of the He family are scattered, the owner of the family has no virtue and talent, no matter whether it is a direct branch or a side branch, they are not very convinced. In addition, I don’t know where the news came from, saying that General He is the current head of the family. He was killed. The He family has been very troubled in the past few years. Even if they want to clean up Li Ruosong and the others, they are powerless.

The pirates have been wiped out in the past few years. Lin Tianheng is restless. There is no battle to fight at sea, so he ran to destroy the pirates' stronghold. It is not a big island country. Lin Tianheng brought twenty ships Eight thousand soldiers passed by the ship, and the island country was wiped out in less than half a year. It took two months to transport the gold, silver, treasures and prisoners of war from the island country.

The maritime trade route is open, Li Ruosong is not the kind of person who gives fruit to others to eat, and he will not destroy the pirates and become a pirate himself. After discussing with Brigadier Zhou, Li Ruosong directly under Jinghaiwei A port has been built on the seaside under its jurisdiction, the kind of port that looks high-end and elegant at first glance. The pier is very beautifully built. Li Guanshi is in charge of the pier management. In recent years, Feng Bao has been able to take over the business of the caravan. Being transferred to the pier, after all, no one would dare to put this position here unless he was a confidant.

In addition to Li Guanshi, Zhou Jinyan was also placed here to study with Li Guanshi. Their caravan brought back dozens of blond foreign devils from overseas the year before last. There are also those who are proficient in business management. Chengdong specifically told Feng Bao to let their overseas caravans pay attention to the talents brought back. These people were forced to learn Dachu dialect when they were on board, and they drifted at sea for more than half a year. After learning the Chu dialect, these foreign devils were able to stutter and chat with people when the people in the caravan were almost overwhelmed.

It’s not that these overseas people don’t know Dachu, on the contrary, Dachu’s wealth is famous overseas, and it’s not like they didn’t think of bringing a fleet to Dachu to rob, but the people who came before didn’t die of sepsis On the boat, it was gone forever, and slowly, the other side also rested their minds, among other things, it would be better to solve the sepsis first and then consider the matter of invading Dachu.

Septicemia is caused by the fact that there are no vegetables and fruits at sea, and long-term lack of vitamins leads to the occurrence of this disease. Often there are more than 200 crew members on a ship, and no more than 60 people can survive to Dachu.

But Da Chu’s fleet has never had such troubles. Every time Feng Bao takes a caravan to sea, 700 people go and 700 people return. Every time I bring a lot of beans on board, I eat bean sprouts whenever I have nothing to do on the boat, not to mention the god-defying fetish of tea. Basically, the problem of bean sprouts and a few cups of tea per day is solved.

But the people of Dachu didn’t know that they brought beans on board because they thought that there were no vegetables on board, so they sent some bean sprouts to eat as vegetables. Drinking tea is a habit of Dachu people. It is possible for them to not eat meat for a day, but not to drink tea for a day, so It is said that before the Dachu people noticed, they had perfectly avoided the terminal illness and sepsis that terrified these foreigners, which can be regarded as unintentional.

Jinghaiwei has developed rapidly in the past few years. If you come to Jinghaiwei to see it now, you will definitely be shocked. If people from later generations see it, you will think that this is not an ancient capital, but a modern prefecture-level city. , except that there are no high-rise buildings on the asphalt road, but this neat building complex, the flat concrete road with a standard six-lane width, if it weren't for the clothes, some people would believe that they are in modern times.

In Jinghaiwei's mansion, Li Ruosong held a letter in his hand, pondered for a long time, and said to the person standing behind him: "Zize, go and tell General Zhou to come over, and there are several other battalion commanders, how about that?" , don’t come here, go to the meeting hall.”

Wang Zize saluted and replied, "Yes."

After Wang Zize left, Cheng Dong led Cheng Li and Li Cheng out of the small study room. The two little guys were already four years old, just at the age of fun. When they saw Li Ruosong, they shook off Cheng Dong's hand and walked Little Short Legs ran up to Li Ruosong, hugged Li Ruosong's legs one by one and shouted repeatedly: "Daddy, Daddy, hug."

Li Ruosong's serious expression just now disappeared without a trace. He bent down, stretched out two hands, hugged Li Cheng and Cheng Li, and asked, "Did you study hard just now?"

The two little fellows nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, Daddy even praised us for being smart."

Li Ruosong asked again: "Then did you have a good meal?"

"Yes, yes, I ate a big bowl of egg custard and a big bowl of rice, and so did my brother, right, brother?"

After Li Cheng finished speaking, he turned to look at Cheng Li.

Cheng Li nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, and said, "Yes, yes, yes, what my brother said is right."

Li Ruosong laughed. The two little guys grew up and became smarter. Li Cheng is the elder brother. He has a somewhat detached personality, but he is very protective of his younger brother. Li is Li Cheng's little follower. Li Cheng said things but he didn't say things. It may be because of the twins. Whether they eat or sleep, these two little things are together. The little guy is sleeping separately, the problem is that as long as Chengdong shows any intention of separating the two brothers, they will stare at you with big watery eyes without blinking, Chengdong's face is cold and his heart is hot People who say that this is the last time and it’s useless to watch it next time, in fact, they have given up in their hearts and continue to argue with these two children. They often say that there will be no next time and next time they will continue to be these four Character.

Li Cheng was hugged by Li Ruosong for a while, and felt that Li Ruosong's hug was uncomfortable, so he kicked his two short legs and wanted to get down, but Li Ruosong was struggling to hold him, so he just put the two little fat guys on the ground, look What do they want to do.

After Cheng Li got off the ground, he turned around and hugged Li Ruosong's calf, raised his head and asked, "Father, is there a letter from Beijing?"

Li Cheng ran to Cheng Dong's side, leaned against his father, didn't speak, just looked up at his father just like his younger brother.

Li Ruosong raised his eyebrows and asked, "How do you know it's from Beijing? Who told you? Your father?"

Cheng Li pouted and said, "That's not true, Dad doesn't tell us anything."

"Then how did you know? You guessed it?" Li Ruosong continued to ask.

Cheng Li glanced at Li Cheng, saw his little brother nodding at him, and then said: "Every time Dad receives a letter from Beijing, his expression is very bad, his eyes are squinted, his eyebrows are drooping, and his mouth will sag. He squeezed tightly, his hands were very hard, his eyes were very fierce, and he could tell that his father was angry at a glance. Every time Jingli wrote to him, he always had this expression. No need for others to tell, my brother and I knew it was over just by looking at it Cheng Li wrinkled his nose and said to Li Cheng: "Brother, am I right? "

Li Chengcheng nodded his head in a decent manner, and replied: "My brother is right."

Cheng Li was praised by his brother, and his little face burst into a smile. He stopped pestering his father, ran to Li Cheng, hugged his brother's neck and said, "I like my brother the most."

Li Cheng also hugged him and said, "I like my younger brother the most."

The appearance of the two brothers loving each other made Chengdong dumbfounded. The two children had a good relationship since they were young. The way he gets along with Li Ruoshan doesn't look like a person who will be sticky with his brothers, but when it comes to these two little brothers, sometimes the sticky Chengdong thinks it's too much, and it can be described by four words: can't bear to look directly at him .

But Li Ruosong didn't think there was anything strange about it. He became a father for the first time and had never seen other children. He didn't think there was anything special about his two babies. After hearing Cheng Li's words, he found it very interesting He never knew that he had such an expression when he read the letter.

"That's right, you observed carefully, Fulang, Prince Zhong said that he will not ascend the throne. The throne is reserved for Ruoshan. The deposed prince has already been sent to us. He is afraid that he will not be able to protect this child. It's not peaceful. Chu Jing is too close to the north. If the north really sends troops south, it may be difficult to keep Chu Jing. Moreover, according to what Prince Zhong said, he didn't even think about keeping it. Now he's sending the deposed prince here. It is probably to leave a retreat for Da Chuduo." Li Ruosong frowned and said with a serious expression.

Chengdong pondered for a while, and said, "If our arsenal works in a hurry here, we should be able to get more cannons in red and send them to Chujing, which may save the situation."

Li Ruosong shook his head and said: "It's too late, the Mohe tribe has conquered Fengguo, the capital of Fengguo is Fengdu Dingdu, the country's name is Dahe, I don't know who they contacted, the red-clothed cannon and the others There are also, and there are a lot of them. Although the bird guns are not as good as our rifles, there are a lot of them. They are just busy building the country now, and they haven't had time to clean us up. It's dangerous."

Chengdong was a little surprised. In the past few years, he had only devoted himself to military manufacturing. He didn't know what the outside world was like now. Hearing what Li Ruosong said, Chengdong was taken aback. It's enough to surprise them, and the content of this letter probably won't be much better.

Thinking of Da Chu's current situation, Cheng Dong wanted to stroke his forehead. He is just a very ordinary commoner. How did he get here step by step? If he could, he really didn't want to think about so many complicated things.
