The identity of the direct son - Xu I's prosperous world

In mid-February, another major event that shocked the government and the public took place in Fuzhou.

It was Xie Zhengyao, the ship envoy and admiral of Fuzhou after the opening of the port, who seized the goods of a merchant named Jiang Liang for inspection, and did not return the goods to Jiang Liang for a long time, which meant that Jiang Liang's gifts were not enough. This Jiang Liang is the subordinate of Xu Tiehu, a well-known pirate. They have been doing smuggling business and robbing other people's ships. This time they encountered such a problem when doing business normally, so they were very upset. The conflict with Xie Zhengyao became bigger.

No one expected that a typhoon would come suddenly in spring, and Fuzhou Port was not well protected. Jiang Liang's cargo ship was blown away by the typhoon and hit the reef. All the good cargo was gone.

Where Jiang Liang could suffer, he called on his brothers who were both peasants and pirates to rob Fuzhou directly, and then robbed several ships of the imperial court.

This is the beginning and end of the Fuzhou incident in January.

But this matter is not over, because after this incident, the court naturally sent people to chase it down. Jiang Liang still felt angry when he robbed the court's ship, and his boss Xu Tiehu had never eaten such a thing. Unfortunately, in mid-February, thousands of people landed directly at Fuzhou Port and burned, killed and looted Fuzhou. The officers and soldiers stationed in Fuzhou were caught off guard, and hundreds of people were killed. was killed at home.

In addition to Xie Zhengyao, two thousand households and one hundred household were also killed in this chaos.

Xu Tiehu and his group of pirates not only burned, killed and looted the Fuzhou government, but also robbed several nearby places, and then swaggered back to the sea. missing.

That's about it.

Although the pirates were very serious before, they were always intruded by small groups. This was the first time that the pirates were so aggressive.

Such a thing, how can it not shake the ruling and opposition parties.

Because Lord Ji is a powerful port-opening faction, he has been besieged by the Forbidden Sea faction all the time. Lord Ji was indeed very busy a while ago, so he didn't have time to visit Ji Heng at all.

This time, such a big event happened again, that's why he came to this other courtyard of Jiheng in the south of the city.

When Master Ji arrived, Ji Heng was wearing a blue robe and sitting on a chair in the bedroom reading a book. Like the emperor, Mrs. Xu felt that Ji Heng was a little too indifferent to the child, so she asked the nanny to put the child's cradle in Ji Heng's room. In the bedroom, let her also stay on the chair in the bedroom to watch the child, and Xu Shi also sat next to him, wanting Ji Heng to pay more attention to the child.

Because Ji Heng didn't abide by the one-month period before and went to take a bath, there was another quarrel between Xu and Ji Heng, and Ji Heng was scolded bloody, and Ji Heng just lay low, as if being drenched in water Like a dead Persian cat, it nestled pitifully on the bed, with its head hanging down and not saying a word.

The more Mrs. Xu saw him like this, the more she kept talking, saying to Ji Heng, "Look, you are just like this in front of me. How much you listened to me when you were young, and when you grow up, you have been admitted to fame. Now that you are the number one scholar, you have left your mother behind, and you don’t listen to me anymore. Whatever I say, you know how to pretend to be pitiful, and you don’t say a word.”

What could Ji Heng say, so he raised his head and looked at Xu Shi helplessly and pitifully. Xu Shi was completely at a loss now, so he could only say, "I can't do anything with you. You can do whatever you want." How about it?"

Naturally, Ji Heng couldn't do whatever he wanted, so he changed the subject, "Is there any letter from uncle, what happened to Qilang."

Mrs. Xu really put away the fierceness before, calmed down, and said, "Because you wrote several letters to ask Qilang, your uncle told him about it, saying that he was sent to sea, and there is no such thing as a year or a half. , will not come back."

Ji Heng was very surprised, "He has never been out to sea, so he was sent out to sea, so nothing will happen."

Mrs. Xu also sighed, and said, "Your uncle must want to train and train him, or if he is married, it's shameless to argue with your uncle at home, and he will be put on a boat. Once the boat goes to sea, What can Shichiro do?"

Ji Heng frowned and said, "Qilang is still a child at heart. Is it too much for my uncle to do this? Besides, he just got married and went to sea, and his wife is waiting at home."

Xu laughed when he heard Ji Heng say this, "He is still a child at heart? He is two years older than you. And his wife, I only found out later, it is said that she is not a simple person. I am afraid it is her this time." Escorting the boat."

Ji Heng felt surprised, "Didn't it mean that women can't upload to the sea?"

Xu said, "Although that's the case, it's not the case."

Ji Heng thought of Xu Qilang's unscrupulous and bold temper, and married a powerful daughter-in-law, and he was afraid that he would be punished to death, so he said, "Didn't you say that the daughter of the Song family is very gentle and virtuous?"

Mrs. Xu snorted and said, "It was your uncle who lied to your aunt, or your aunt wrote to me to complain, so I know it's not the case. Song Zhisheng is a maritime merchant who is stronger than your uncle. It is said that he is overseas There are also several islands, because they have never been able to give birth to sons. There is such a daughter who has been raised as a son since she was a child. They all obey him. Qilang has a good temper and has no temper. After marrying such a daughter-in-law, I am afraid that he will be controlled by her in the future. I really don’t know what your uncle is thinking, how could Qilang marry such a daughter-in-law .”

Ji Heng fell silent, but thought of many other things.

Because of Xu Qilang's matter, Xu also forgot to continue scolding Ji Heng.

Since Ji Heng had taken a bath before, Xu couldn't continue to stop him afterwards, so Ji Heng had to take a bath every three to five days. Fortunately, he was recuperating well and nothing happened.

When Mr. Ji arrived, the maid went in to report first. Mrs. Xu didn't expect Mr. Ji to come at this time, so she got up from the chair and asked the maid to invite Mr. Ji to come in.

Mrs. Ji entered the house. Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Ji are husband and wife, but they haven't seen each other for half a month. Mrs. Ji thinks that Mrs. Xu left the house alone and just guarding her son is very irresponsible, but she doesn't want to have a relationship with Mrs. Xu. I was upset, so when the hatchback saw it, they both asked carefully.

Mrs. Ji said, "Madam is doing well these days."

There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his tone, a bit like teasing.

Xu didn't care as much as he did, and said, "It's not good to have a grandson to hug. On the contrary, master, you must be too busy recently. The grandson has been born for more than half a month, and I haven't seen you come to see it."

Mr. Ji stopped getting entangled with Mrs. Xu on these matters. Ji Heng got up from his chair and said to Mr. Ji, "Father, you are here."

Lord Ji looked at Ji Heng, and saw that Ji Heng was wearing a blue brocade robe, but his hair was not tied up and wearing a crown, but simply tied up and draped over his back, which naturally seemed too casual and unrestrained, without a sense of solemnity.

However, after Ji Heng gave birth, he did not become a woman. Instead, he appeared more mature, with a handsome air on top of his Tsinghua elegance.

Lord Ji was relieved now, if he hadn't come to see Ji Heng, he was afraid of seeing Ji Heng turned into a woman.

Master Ji said, "I've been too busy recently, so I haven't been able to spare time."

Saying that, he looked at the shaker again.

The nanny next to the crib was surnamed Rong. She was a woman in her early twenties. She was not very beautiful, but she felt very gentle and graceful. It was such a person that the emperor could rest assured to be a nanny for his children. There is no capital to attract Ji Heng's attention.

The nanny got up and bowed to Master Ji, who then said, "This is... Your Highness, right?"

The nanny said, "Go back to your lord, that's right."

Master Ji went to the cradle, and Mrs. Xu followed.

The little guy was sleeping soundly on the rocker, and everyone talked and didn't wake him up. It was probably because Ji Heng was well raised when he was pregnant, and the child was in good health. been sick.

Master Ji saw a little baby who looked very similar to Ji Heng. He was white and tender, with pale features on his face, but he looked like Ji Heng at a glance.

Xu reminded in a low voice, "He's asleep, don't wake him up."

The Xu family is now putting his grandson first, and even Ji Heng has to stand aside.

Master Ji also became more cautious, and took another look at Ji Heng who was standing beside him with a blank face, probably thinking that this child was really born by Ji Heng, it was a little unbelievable.

Master Ji looked at the child for a while, then said to Ji Heng, "Heng'er, I have something to discuss with you as a father."

Ji Heng thought it was impossible for Mr. Ji to just come and see the child, so he asked Mrs. Xu and the nanny to carry the child to the next room, while he sat down with Mr. Ji to talk about things.

Master Ji didn't beat around the bush, so he just told what happened in Fuzhou.

Then he said, "This kind of thing happened because Fuzhou was opened as a port. Now, [-]% of the people in the court want to close the newly opened port. Even the emperor is very embarrassed about this."

Ji Heng said, "Specific matters should be dealt with in detail. My son is locked in this room now, and he doesn't know enough about the southeast coastal defense in detail, so it's really hard to talk about it. However, there is no doubt about one thing, absolutely not because of this matter. The matter is banned by the sea. However, we must not tolerate the pirates. Those who dare to plunder so much and treat the government as nothing will be severely punished. The most important issue now is the strategy of combating pirates. The emperor wants to change his appointment General?"

Ji Daren said, "The emperor did not transfer General Xu to lead the military affairs of Fujian and Zhejiang, but appointed Wang Bingzhi, the right servant of the Ministry of War, as the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang to fight against pirates. The Zhao family Zhao Zhili recruited soldiers and horses in Fujian. He has made great contributions in small-scale battles. This time, Xu Tiehu caused chaos near Fuzhou. Because he did not have time to help Fuzhou, some ministers in the court said that he would be punished, but I don’t think the emperor had this intention. Add Zhao Zhili as the commander of the capital, and assist Wang Bingzhi to deal with the Fujian and Zhejiang pirates."

Ji Heng said, "My son wants to go to the southeast in April. I told my father once before. This time, the time has been set. When my son goes to the southeast and understands the specifics, he will be able to help his father."

Master Ji was a little surprised. Although he knew that Ji Heng wanted to leave Beijing, he didn't expect the time to be set so early.

Master Ji said humanely, "Where is the emperor, how to say it."

Ji Heng said, "The emperor will let his son go."

Lord Ji said again, "Your Highness, have you asked how the emperor will arrange it?"

Ji Heng said indifferently, "It's up to him to arrange whatever the emperor wants."

Master Ji said, "The emperor cares about your opinion very much. Since he is the prince, the emperor will definitely take him back to the palace. If he wants to raise it for other concubines, he might as well give it to your third sister."

Ji Heng knew Lord Ji would have this intention, so he immediately said, "In this matter, my son has no right to interfere with the emperor. At the beginning, my son and the emperor agreed that the children will belong to him when the time comes, but he wants to let me go out of Beijing. If you want to leave Beijing, you will naturally be unable to say anything about the child."

Mr. Ji was a little surprised. Seeing that Ji Heng didn't want to talk about it, he couldn't get entangled in this topic anymore.

When Mr. Ji was about to leave, Ji Heng said, "Anyway, father, you have to hold on. Opening a port is beneficial for thousands of years, so you can't back down because of temporary difficulties."

Master Ji nodded and didn't say much, but reminded Ji Heng, "If your mother is free, let her go home."

After Master Ji finished speaking, he felt a little uncomfortable, so he hurried away.
