His Majesty Meow Raises Fish [Rebirth]

During this year, there were not no large merchant ships in the port of Laiyiwei, but they were all caravans traveling between Jizhou and Jingzhou.

Although not all the merchant ships in Qingzhou were destroyed in the maritime accident, they waited quietly in the dock for a long time. If people's frightened hearts could not settle down, these ships would never see the light of day again.

During this year, Qingzhou Laiyiwei's Shibo Department lost its chief, and it was still in operation, and there was also tax revenue, but compared with the situation in previous years, it was still much depressed.

It was a very important signal that Qingzhou's fleet left Laiyiwei on this day.

This marks that the haze brought about by maritime affairs and turmoil has finally stopped hindering Qingzhou's maritime trade with other countries.

Many people believed that the arrival of Prince Jing would bring a difference to the Laiyi Peninsula, but they did not expect that the day of the difference would come so soon.

Prince Jing has only been in Laiyiwei for a few months, and there have been such changes, which is surprising.

But the first to benefit is the Chen family, which has been favored by Prince Jing recently.

The Laiyi Navy was ordered to escort its caravan all the way to the border waters agreed by the two countries, which is equivalent to protecting the fleet as much as possible.

In fact, what they didn't know was that apart from the Laiyi Navy, there was also Qi Jing leading the Demon Suppressing Battalion to accompany the Chen family's caravan to avoid any danger.

Although the mermaid tribe had to raise their cubs in spring and summer, most of them would not dare to provoke the Kyushu people at will, but in order to prevent it from happening, Qi Jing went out in person.

Because for Laiyiwei, the Chen family's caravan is too important to be lost.

Qi Jing must ensure that this fleet can leave well and come back well, so that the Chen family can make a lot of money through this sea trade, so that others can be envied and jealous.

With the Chen family's ability and heritage of standing in Laiyiwei for so many years, I understand that it is impossible for a small male servant to make Prince Jing treat his family so differently, so it is not impossible to see what Prince Jing wants to plan.

But even though they were very clear about Prince Jing's intention to get close to the Chen family, they had to bite this bait.

In the past, because there was such a powerful Lord of the Eastern Territory as Prince Feng, and the Yao family and the Chen family did not deal with each other, in order to survive in the Laiyi Peninsula, the Chen family made a lot of compromises.

Marrying with other families in exchange for a little trust and connection, making concessions or even sacrifices in front of the overall interests of the camp, and doing everything possible to maintain the unity and fusion of this force...

The Chen family no longer wanted to live through such a cautious life.

Huge benefits are right in front of you. If you don't fight or grab just to maintain the previous relationship, you can only pick up what others don't want.Of course, being too prominent and easily arousing the attention and jealousy of others is a risk.

If trees stand tall in the forest, the wind will destroy them; if piled on the shore, the current will be turbulent... Everyone understands this truth.

But also look at the surrounding environment and your own situation.

From the Chen family's point of view, although Prince Jing has his own plans, he is not a person like Prince Feng.

The aristocratic families in the Laiyi Peninsula have heard about the character of the Seventh Prince. Coupled with the frequent contacts in the past two months, they have a deeper understanding of Qi Jing.

If Prince Jing is insidious and cunning, then of course the Chen family would not dare to conspire with him, let alone be such a prominent rafter.

But it was because Prince Jing was different from Qi Feng, which gave the Chen family more confidence - at least at present, this His Highness is not the master who will kill donkeys and cross rivers to tear down bridges.

If Prince Jing wants to divide the family in Laiyi Peninsula, he must get close to some people and alienate some people.

As the current owner of the Eastern Realm, his close family can obviously have more advantages, while his distant family, in this division of interests, it is inevitable that they will not be able to please.

Since in the end, some people get benefits and some people don't get benefits, there will always be conflicts and injustices, so why can't the Chen family seize the opportunity and directly grab the biggest and best piece of meat?

Having made such a decision, the Chen family naturally couldn't waste the great opportunity. They and Prince Jing will act together in this big show of your love and my wish, so that the entire Laiyiwei family can see that someone has already set sail first.

……

Before the Chen family's merchant ship left Qingzhou, the people of the Laiyi Peninsula spontaneously went to the seaside to light water lanterns to pray for blessings in the middle of July.

It was the first time Qi Jing saw countless lotus lanterns floating on the vast endless sea in the night, resembling bright stars.

The lotus lanterns floating far away are people mourning for their relatives who died in the maritime accident, and they are actually expressing the expectations of the people of Laiyi Peninsula for a better future.

Qi Jing, who was touched during that blessing, decided to speed up, and then hit it off with the Chen family, and soon created a grand occasion for thousands of people to watch the Chen family's merchant ships go to sea.

Both His Majesty and the Crown Prince are very concerned about Prince Jing, and are also very concerned about the restoration of maritime trade between the Laiyi Peninsula and other countries. They are very happy to learn that Qi Jing's plan has made progress.

Qi Jing only talked about official business in the booklet, but he also wrote about the Laiyi Palace in the secret letter to the palace, so as to reassure the father and the others.

When the emperor's letter mentioned that he hoped that Qi Jing and Xiao Shiyi could return to Beijing for a temporary stay during the Moon Worship Festival, Qi Jing thought about it and decided to go back.

On the one hand, he really misses his father, grandmother, and brother, and on the other hand, he also needs an image in Laiyiwei that is very favored by the emperor and the prince.

This image is not the foundation for Qi Jing to settle down, but it can protect him and help him accomplish some things better.

It will take at least three to four months for the merchant ships of the Chen family to go to Jizhou and back. If there is a suitable business in Jizhou, it will take longer, and it may not return until winter.

Now many aristocratic families see that the Chen family has taken the first step, and they can't help but feel anxious.

Those who are timid still want to wait and see, but some people already understand that the original opportunity has been taken by others, and if they don't take action quickly, they will fall even further behind.

Prince Jing doesn't have to be afraid that no one will continue to follow the Chen family, and it's time to return to Beijing for a while.

Qi Jing wanted to return to the capital, so Xiao Shiyi and Xiao Chiyu naturally followed him. This time they no longer took the land route, but returned to the capital with the Demon Suppressing Camp a few days in advance.

The moment he led Xiao Shiyi into the Zichen Palace, he suddenly felt as if he had passed away.

Not to mention what he experienced in his previous life, even the few years he spent in Beijing in this life seems to have been a long time ago... Although there are still his father, grandmother and brother in this palace, but It's not his destination for a long time, which makes people feel emotional.

Xiao Shiyi felt that Brother Seven's footsteps hesitated for a moment, and looked up at Qi Jing.

Qi Jing looked at the little guy's bright and clear eyes, thinking that on Shishi, the little baby was walked in by him at the beginning, and now he can walk in with him by himself, as if it happened in an instant.

But in fact, they have experienced too many things, so many that they can think of many scenes and pictures after counting each one in detail.

The palace servants opened the curtain, Qi Jing and the little prince walked into the emperor's study, and heard a familiar voice.

"It's finally here."

Qi Jing looked up and saw that it was their second brother, Prince Qi Heng, who was watching them walk in with a smile on his face.

When he saw his father again, his heart was shocked - his father seemed to be more haggard than when he left Tianjing.

The seventh prince brought the little prince to salute his father and brother. The emperor gave him a seat, and the three brothers sat down.

Qi Jun first looked at Lao Qi, then his eyes fell on Eleven, and said softly: "It's grown taller again."

Both the crown prince and Qi Jing knew who the father was talking about, and the crown prince asked, "Did you lose some weight?"

"If you grow taller, you will naturally lose your hair. If you are still like when you were a child, you have to worry." The emperor is not worried. Eleven follows the seventh child, so there is no need to worry at all.

Compared with the people of Jingzhou, the children of the royal family in Jizhou and Qingzhou were taller and taller. When they reached a certain age, their heights would climb upwards, and the clothes they wore in the first year could not be worn in the second year.

Xiao Shiyi's round face has gradually revealed some lines, and after enlightenment, he looks more like a prince.

Although the emperor's complexion is not very good, he is still in good spirits because his two sons have returned to Beijing.

In the early years, he focused on state affairs, neglected the harem, and didn't care enough about the princes. He had an inescapable responsibility for what happened later.

His body was deteriorating, and even his heart was no longer so strong. Sometimes thinking about Lao Qi and Xiao Shi, Qi Jun would regret telling them to leave Beijing too early.

After half a year, looking at the spirited appearance of Lao Qi and Eleven, the emperor was both relieved and worried.

He was happy that Lao Qi was doing well in the Eastern Territory, that Lao Qi was in good health, and that Eleven was growing up, but he was also worried that in the future, Lao Qi would not be able to cope with any situation, but he would be powerless...even he was no longer by their side.

Originally, he wanted to take advantage of Lao Qi's return to listen to the situation of Laiyiwei Haiyun, but when the words came to his lips, he changed again.

"You have handled the matter of Lai Yiwei very well. The queen mother is waiting for you. We will discuss this matter later."

Qi Heng should know the emperor's original plan, but seeing that he didn't ask Lao Qi as planned, he didn't act strange, and he didn't try to remind him.

——When Lao Qi was not in Tianjing, the palace was really deserted...

……

Although the queen mother has Xu Lang by her side, she still misses Qi Jing and Xiao Shi very much.

It was not easy for the two of them to return to Beijing. The Queen Mother and His Majesty let Prince Jing live in the palace and not return to his palace in Beijing.

The queen mother arranged Qi Jing in the side hall of Ci'an Palace, and it is said that she even visited the bedroom in person.

It can be said that it is a great favor for an adult prince to stay in the palace, and he does not live in Dongliu, the former residence of the prince.

Even Qi Jing didn't expect it, so when Chongjiu came to report, Qi Jing knew that the emperor's grandmother had arranged two residences for the brothers.

Eleven has been with Qi Jing for six years and has always lived with Seventh Brother.

In front of Qi Jing, he likes to use the appearance of his ancestors returning to their souls. The small group does not occupy any space at all, so Qi Jing will let Eleven go.

Even if there was an emergency when he needed to avoid the children, he sneaked into the study room when Eleven and little Chiyu were asleep.

Anyway, I couldn't sleep all night at that time, so I just went back to my bedroom early the next morning.

In fact, after Shiyi fell asleep, even if Qi Jing demolished the house, it probably wouldn't wake up.

But right now he was still asleep, and when he heard that he would not share a room with his brother, he immediately became unhappy.

He lay on Qi Jing's lap, pretending to be asleep, except that his eyelashes fluttered a little, and everything else was the same.

Speechless Qi Jing just looked at Xiao Akabane, and saw the little guy quickly closed his eyes and curled up into a ball, looking like he was asleep and please do not disturb.

Qi Jing: "..."

——Is it useful to pretend to sleep like this? !
