Mrs. Rebirth

Lu Zheng tapped on the table lightly, and issued several orders in a row. The first is to stop the trade with Huo Luo, the second is to investigate the spies of other countries in the whole central area, and the third is to strengthen the coastal defense. Into the state of readiness.

Although the Dayang Navy has only been established recently, it is not considered a strong soldier, but it also depends on who the opponent is. Huo Luo is a small country with frequent trade exchanges with Dayang, and Lu Zheng has a lot of information.

As soon as Yin promised to go down and deploy, he heard Lu Zheng continue to say: "Wait a minute, transfer the [-] national defense troops on the outskirts of Kyoto to northern Xinjiang!"

"Are you worried that Beijiang will take advantage of it?"

"It's not that I'm worried, but I suspect that this incident has something to do with Beidi." All right, how could the Huoluo Kingdom suddenly want to be an enemy of Dayang?It was still after the war between Dayang and Beidi ended.

"My subordinate understands."

Lu Zheng looked at him, "After the matter is explained, take a break, and I will go find you!"

Yin paused for a moment, but still responded very seriously. Before Lu Zheng arrived, he was tense. Now that the master has arrived, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Lu Zheng walked out of the yamen and headed towards the port. Although he knew that he had searched everything within a radius of tens of miles, he was always unwilling to search for it himself.

The guards behind him followed quietly, not daring to step forward to disturb him at all, and the aura exuded from Lu Zheng's body made the people of Cangzhou who were curious about him dare not approach him.

Luo Xiaoliu insisted on following him even though he was sick. It was fine if he couldn't get out of bed two days ago, but today Master Lu came, and he wanted to go with him no matter what.

When they arrived at the river port, there were many boats coming in and out. Many people gave up after finding no one for a few days. Although there was wages as long as there was work, everyone had already decided that Zuo Shaoqing could not be alive.

The brothers from the Youcao Gang recognized Lu Zheng, and immediately brought people to greet him. Under pressure, they invited Lu Zheng to board the boat, and drove all the way to the accident site according to his instructions.

Lu Zheng stood at the bow of the boat, watching the river closely against the icy river wind, for fear of suddenly seeing floating objects.

"Master, this section of the river has been salvaged, and the hidden guards have ordered everyone to expand the area downstream."

"Ah."

That guard was one of the ones who followed Zuo Shaoqing to the south. Out of the twenty guards, there were only eight left, and these eight were suffering every day, eroded by huge guilt.

Lu Zheng is not an unreasonable person, the punishment that should be received is natural, but the most important thing at the moment is to find someone, and other things can be postponed.

The boat sailed for a long time, and the two sides became more and more desolate. Occasionally, they would pass one or two small villages. Every time they passed, the guard would explain which places had been searched carefully.

Lu Zheng couldn't help thinking: Could Zuo Shaoqing be in one of them?Maybe he was just too hurt to move, maybe that family just didn't know the news...

"Master, the little one was rescued by the people of that village," Luo Xiaoliu pointed to a village with only a dozen households and said, "According to the villagers, when they found me, there was only one person, and they didn't see the third master." .”

Lu Zheng followed his instructions, and then observed the surrounding terrain. Except for a shoal, there was no place where people could get caught.

Zuo Shaoqing was poisoned at the time, and he knew that kind of poison. It was harmless to life, but it would make people immobilized for three days. Just imagine, how could a person who couldn't move in the water survive unless he was lucky enough to be washed ashore? alive?

Luo Xiaoliu hurriedly explained: "The third master had already forced out some of the poison at that time, although his whole body is weak, but nothing will happen!"

Lu Zheng didn't say a word. Of course he believed that Zuo Shaoqing would be fine. He touched his throbbing chest, firmly believing that that person must be living well somewhere he didn't know.

After staying on the boat for three days, there was still no news from Zuo Shaoqing. Even Luo Xiaoliu wondered if the third master was swallowed into the belly of a fish?Otherwise, how could there be no one alive but no dead body?

Zuo Shaoqing sneezed and touched his calf which was fixed by the bamboo board, wondering if his leg would be crooked by the barefoot doctor in the village.

In this small village that is almost isolated from the rest of the world, he can't even pass on the news. He can only stare at the river in a daze all day long, waiting for the river to rise.

Because of his outstanding appearance and temperament, the greatest joy of the villagers here every day is to go to the river to peek at him, and then several people gather together to make up one after another poignant and bizarre stories for Zuo Shaoqing.

Lin Su would tell him these stories as jokes every night when he came back, and then asked, "Is it true?"

Zuo Shaoqing thought to herself: Why eloped with the girl and accidentally fell into the river, why the girl's belly became big and the other family threw her into the river, why went to Beijing to rush for an exam and met a bandit, and would rather die than surrender and commit suicide by jumping into the river. It's so mundane.

"Hey..." The setting sun set on the top of the mountain, and the last ray of sunlight reflected the beautiful clouds in the western sky. Zuo Shaoqing stood up on crutches and moved back to Lin Su's house step by step.

Lu Zheng's patience was exhausted with each day of disappointment, his complexion became worse and worse, and no one dared to stand within three meters, because the strong sense of oppression made it hard to breathe.

After the fifth day, Lu Zheng stopped searching, locked himself in the study for half a day, and then was taken out letter by letter.

As long as the counties and counties passing by the Cangzhou River, Lu Zheng sent letters one by one, requesting these counties and counties to search for Zuo Shaoqing's whereabouts in his own name.

Although this is against the rules, for the sake of Lord Zhen Guo, few officials refused.

Immediately afterwards, a thick memorial was urgently sent to the capital for eight hundred miles, and it appeared on Zhan Yuanfeng's court case in just three days.

There was only one thing written in Lu Zheng's memorial, which was to ask for the navy to go to Huo Luo Kingdom, and attached a detailed plan and the necessity of this trip.

Lu Zheng didn't mention Zuo Shaoqing a word in the memorial, and he completely started from the perspective of the people's livelihood of the Dayang Society and his determination to go to war.

Zhan Yuanfeng didn't say a word after reading it, and passed the memorial to the ministers, "Tell me what you think."

All the ministers in the DPRK and China have already learned that Zuo Shaoqing's whereabouts are unknown, but few people know that the culprit is Huo Luo Nation, but they can somewhat guess from the fact that Lu Zheng is looking for Huo Luo Nation's troubles instead of looking for someone.

The first person who stood up to oppose was actually Shang Shoufu, "Your Majesty, I think that Zhen Guogong's move is inappropriate. Although the opponent's strength is not strong, our Dayang Navy has just been established, and there are still deficiencies in various aspects. If you rashly Going overseas, even if you win, it will be a miserable victory!"

He believed that it was impossible for Lu Zheng not to know this. The only thing that could explain it was that Lord Lu was really angry and wanted to avenge Zuo Shaoqing.

With Shang Xianyang taking the lead, the rest of the ministers followed suit one after another. Dayang spent a huge amount of money on the navy, which should be a period of steady development. If he went out at this time, very few would be able to come back alive in the end. Everyone felt that This thing did more harm than good.

Moreover, Dayang and Huoluo Kingdom are separated by the sea, and there is no land bordering them. Compared with Beidi, who is staring at him, Huoluo Kingdom is much more harmless.

Zhan Yuanfeng sighed, everyone understands this truth, but Lu Zheng still played, apparently dizzy from anger.

Zhan Yuanfeng was also very worried about Zuo Shaoqing's disappearance. He knew how important Zuo Shaoqing was to Lu Zheng. If something happened to him, he didn't know what Lu Zheng would do.

He picked up the ink pen, rewrote the word "rejection" after the memorial, and ordered people to send it to Cangzhou as soon as possible.

Several ministers lowered their heads, and if they looked carefully, they could vaguely see that the corners of some people's mouths curled up slightly. I am afraid that some people will wait for Lu Zheng to resist and disrespect, and insist on going his own way. Even if the crime is suppressed, even the Duke of Zhen is powerless.

That night, Zhan Yuanfeng was reviewing the memorial when he saw the secret guard coming in holding a box, "Your Majesty, this is the secret memorial urgently submitted by Duke Zhen."

Zhan Yuanfeng's heart moved, and he couldn't wait to see what Lu Zheng said after he stepped back. After reading it word by word, Zhan Yuanfeng's eyes changed from the initial seriousness to a slight smile.

"It turns out that Lu Zheng came up with this idea!" Zhan Yuanfeng read the melody twice, and after making sure that there was nothing missing, he threw it into the brazier, watched it turn into ashes, and made a decision in his heart.

Putting the rest of the unreviewed memorials aside, Zhan Yuanfeng wrote an imperial decree with his own hand, sealed it in a box, and asked the hidden guards to secretly send it to Cangzhou, and then he wrote another imperial decree with a pen. Put it aside and prepare to announce it tomorrow morning.

Sitting alone in the dormitory, Zhan Yuanfeng thought of the relationship between Lu Zheng and Zuo Shaoqing, and wondered if he could find such a person in his life, who could live for him, die for him, and risk the world for him. big deal...
