After the fleet arrived at Yanhuang Port, it docked on the right side of the port, and the stewards of the port came to connect immediately, and the stewards in charge of cargo on the ship were also familiar with many special stewards of the port, and they arranged for the handling of the goods themselves. , Storage.

There are more than 20 people, including King Chengjun, King Chunjun, Thirteen Baylor, and officials and guards who came with them. Xiazhou officials will arrange for them. Lu Fei and You Hua will bring them to the government office building. This task will be considered complete. .

Although the current population of Yanhuang Port is only 10, the official staffing is complete. Like the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, although it is useless for the time being, there are also two officials, but they have not dealt with other countries yet, so usually Deal with rich businessmen from all walks of life in Yanhuang Port.

These two officials, one surnamed Luo and the other surnamed Zhao, immediately arranged for King Cheng and his party to stay in after taking over the task. The upstairs and downstairs of the inn are relatively deserted, and there are not many guests.

After Lord Luo and Lord Zhao placed Chengjun King and the others here, they immediately went back to the government building to apply. How should the imperial brother's mission from the Qing Dynasty be treated?

When Yun Yao and Li Xie came back from the outside, someone sent by Lu Fei informed them in advance that the Qing Emperor's elder brother had sent a mission.

Master Luo and Master Zhao came upstairs to ask for instructions, Li Xie nodded and said: "Since we are here, we should treat them as distinguished guests. My wife and I are very busy and don't have time to entertain them all the time. Master Luo and Master Zhao, you are so kind to entertain them." By the way, they will arrange a banquet at the inn tomorrow night, and my wife, the second master, and I will take care of them."

Of course, not only Li Xie, Yunyao and Yinfeng attended the banquet, but also other officials, the two adults Luo and Zhao would naturally accompany them, and some officials in important positions on Xiazhou's side, there were more than a dozen people on the other side, There should be more than a dozen people on Xia Zhou's side, so that they seem to value each other, but they won't fall into the lower ranks.

At the inn, King Cheng and others spread out on the bed after they settled down.You can imagine that after sailing at sea for a month, their feet did not touch the ground, and they were floating every day. After disembarking at the port, they still felt that their feet were light when they walked.

Almost fell asleep and woke up, it was already dusk, and the setting sun was shining across half of the sky.King Cheng and others went shopping after dinner.

Many people in the square are enjoying the shade, there are many kites floating in the sky, and the smiles on the faces of the children are very bright. Whether they are adults or children, there are constant laughter.

For the old-fashioned and dogmatic scholar Chengjun Wang, he looked at the men and women on the street, especially women, not to mention showing their faces for the time being, to make a living, women also have to do things, but those women flirt with men, isn't that Immoral?

The guide arranged by Lord Zhao and Lord Luo was the second child of the inn. He talked endlessly about the beauties in Xiazhou, but he didn't notice the displeasure on King Cheng's face.But even if you noticed it, you wouldn't care, just like Madam said, if a girl does her own thing well, so what if she talks a few words to a man?There is neither breasts, waist, buttocks, thighs, what is it?

Shisan poked Yinyou, and said in a low voice: "Brother Seven, Yanhuanggang gives me a better feeling than Beijing and Guangzhou. It's a completely different feeling. What exactly is it? I can't describe it."

Yinyou was thoughtful, he had the most opportunities to travel around the Qing Dynasty, and he had the most intuitive experience. Compared with Yanhuang Port at this time, the obvious difference made him fall into deep thought.

"Energetic!" After a while, Yinyou said: "Look at these people, they walk with their heads up and their chests upright, even if they see officials in official uniforms and top hats, they don't show any fear on their faces."

And there is no ban on shaving your head here. Men have all sorts of strange hairstyles. Some have their heads shaved, some have short hair that reaches the ears, some pile up on their heads like weeds, and some have colorful decorations on their heads. .

Shisan suddenly realized, raised his eyes, what he saw made him feel novel, he couldn't help thinking to himself, Fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law are really amazing!Just looking at it like this, he felt countless joys in his heart, not to mention the people living here.

Xiao Er happened to be talking about Xia Zhou’s official guidelines, among which officials were not allowed to take needles from the people, not to insult the people, etc. In the beginning, some officials did not abide by the rules and were severely punished, fired, etc., but it took only two or three months. , No matter the top or bottom, it will look brand new.At that time, Yun Yao put in a lot of effort to clear up the atmosphere.

No matter what opinions the old antiques from the Qing Dynasty had, they could only hold it in their hearts. This was Xiazhou, Yanhuang Port, and it was not their turn to point fingers.

As the night deepened, there were fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street. King Cheng and others returned to the inn one after another. Everyone didn't speak, and went back to their rooms to rest obediently.

The next day, Chengjun Wang and the others walked in a different direction, and happened to walk to the school area, because it was summer, and Xiazhou was going to have summer vacation, so the school was preparing for the final exam, and the students were looking forward to the next summer vacation, I was also thinking about the upcoming final exam. If I failed the exam, I would not be able to explain to my parents when I went back, and I would not be happy during the summer vacation.

The guide Xiaoer also introduced the history of the establishment of the school eloquently. Although it is not long, the school is the cradle of cultivating talents, which is one of the most valued places.

After seeing the school, the arsenal, and the various troops, I had lunch at a small restaurant on the street at noon, and continued to walk in the afternoon. It was not until before You hour that King Cheng and others returned to the inn.

After a while, Lixie, Yunyao, Yinreng, and officials from Xiazhou all came. Among the officials, there were three indigenous patriarchs from Xiazhou. Contact and communication with the government.

Yinfeng now also has a position as a person in charge of the new city and village. This is very complicated and requires great patience and communication skills. After the completion of the new city and village, he will be able to fully integrate into Xiazhou. It's so popular.

No matter the Chengjun King or the officials of Honglu Temple on the Qing side were a little uncomfortable at this clean-up banquet, but the officials on Xiazhou's side were full of enthusiasm.

Yinzhi, Yinyou, and Yinxiang were received by Lixie, Yunyao, and Yinreng. They had a private room alone, and the other envoys of the Qing Dynasty were entertained by officials from Xiazhou. The wine table culture in China has a long history, and there is no barrier. It cannot be broken after a toast.

Not to mention that Mr. Zhao and others were friendly with the Qing officials, Lixie's private room was quite quiet at first.However, although everyone's identities are somewhat different now, the initial identities are the same: they are born of the same father, so according to the order of seniority, Yinzhi, Yinyou, and Yinxiang first greeted Yinfeng, followed by brothers and younger brothers. After calling out, it's easy to speak.

"Fourth brother, you're still hiding it!" Yin Zhi insisted on toasting Li Xie with the wine glass, and said pointedly.

Li Xie returned a glass of wine and said, "Thank you for the compliment, third brother." Then he drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

Yinzhi was a little annoyed, he didn't praise the fourth child, he was just mocking him, he actually climbed the pole?He was embarrassed to explain exactly what he meant, then continued to pour a glass of wine, turned to talk to Yinfeng.

"Second brother, congratulations on your new life." Yin Zhi's words made Yun Yao, Li Xie and Yin Reng a little speechless, but they didn't care about it.

Yinfeng smiled and said: "It is indeed a new life, third child, Xiazhou is still short of people, especially people like you who have read poetry and books, are you interested in coming to Xiazhou?"

Yinyou and Yinxiang couldn't help being startled, the second brother has changed a lot.

After Yinreng and Yinzhi talked, Lixie turned to look at Yinyou and Yinxiang, and said, "Seventh brother, Huang Ama was angry at me for taking away my second brother?"

Yinyou shook his head, then toasted Li Xie and Yunyao a glass of wine, and then said: "Fourth brother and fourth sister-in-law are safe and sound. I don't know how Huang Ama will react. Huang Ama told the matter about the fourth brother and second brother Our brothers then sent me to Guangzhou to station at the naval bases on Xiangshan Island and Shenfeng Island."

The task Huang Ama assigned him was to wait for the rabbit, and then he did it.

Li Xie nodded: "What instructions does Huang Ama have? When you return to Daqing, help me bring a letter to Huang Ama, and I will tell him, old man, don't worry about me." There are also hypocritical pleas.

Yinyou was speechless and a little confused. Is the relationship between the fourth brother and Huang Ama so straightforward?

Yun Yao greeted Yinxiang to eat, and smiled and bewitched: "Do you want to stay in Xiazhou? Thirteenth brother should like to lead troops to fight. Xiazhou is developing very fast and there are many opportunities."

Yin Xiangmu ate vegetables in a daze, swallowed the food in his mouth, and then said: "How does fourth sister-in-law know that I want to lead the army to fight?"

Yun Yao smiled and said, "I'm an expert in facial recognition, and my thirteenth brother looks like a soldier."

Yinxiang looked at Yunyao in disbelief, the fourth sister-in-law is an authentic Eight Banners noble daughter, she knows the so-called magic stick of the Han people?But when he thought about it again, he couldn't help being a little dumbfounded. Fourth sister-in-law's ability to support Xia Zhou's sky is enough to show her discerning gaze.

"I like to lead troops to fight, but..." He doesn't care what he wants now, how can he convince others?When he goes back this time, even if he rolls around Sapo, he will ask Huang Ama to agree to join the army.

The brothers were having a good time, when they heard the sound of arguing from the private room next door, and the sound became louder and louder, causing Li Xie and the others to stop talking for a while.

After listening quietly for a while, several people couldn't help being dumbfounded.

It seems that the officials from the Qing Dynasty and Xiazhou's side had a quarrel. Because of the atmosphere on Xiazhou's side, the officials from the Qing Dynasty agreed that it was immoral, and of course the officials from Xiazhou's side quit. They also objected to the strategy concerning women, thinking that it violated ethics, but after four years, men and women have adapted very well, women are capable, and men can devote themselves to their future. What's wrong?Now that the officials of the Qing Dynasty criticize their Xiazhou style, they naturally have to defend themselves.

Jiu Zhuang was cowardly, and the officials on both sides tore off the mask on their faces. It was like five hundred ducks arguing.But fortunately, we are all gentlemen, and we can drink two glasses of wine at most.

Since they don't know how to be violent, then Yunyao doesn't care about them and continues to gossip with Yinxiang and the others.When the banquet was at Haishi, the officials on both sides were still in a daze. Yunyao asked the sergeant to send them back home, and then invited Yinxiang and the others to go to Xia Ning Street at any time during these days in Yanhuanggang. Feel free to entertain them.

The next day, the three of Yinzhi visited the Guerjia family with gifts, and the Guerjia family had already heard what Yinrong said, so she was ready to entertain guests.Originally, the five children were supposed to ask for leave to entertain three uncles who came from afar, but the school was taking final exams, so how could they ask for leave?

The Guerjia family asked about the people and things in the capital. People and things were all about the Guerjia family. When she left last year, there was no time to say goodbye to her parents.

The three of Yinzhi didn't stay for long, and left after half an hour, but Guarjia asked them to bring a letter to her parents, which was easy for Yinzhi and the others, so naturally they agreed.

Afterwards, the Qing Mission stayed in Yanhuang Port for nearly a month. Hou Yong and the newly promoted general Wen Song led the team back to the Qing, and the Qing Mission left with them. Li Xie and Yin Reng asked them to bring some The local products from Xiazhou were given to Kangxi and Concubine De, and Guerjia and Li Jia naturally also entrusted letters and gifts to their parents.

It was mid-March back to the Qing Dynasty, and Yinzhi and the others could not catch up with Kangxi's birthday anyway, and after drifting on the sea for so long, Yinzhi and the others didn't want to take a boat anymore, so they had to go by land.

In the new continent of Xiazhou, Lixie's actions could not be concealed from the courtiers. It is conceivable that what Kangxi said in the court hall caused a sensation.After the court meeting was over, Guarjiahuashan, Ulanara Feiyangu and Li Jiashu Deku entered the imperial study one after another, faltering and asking if their daughter was accompanying her son-in-law in Xiazhou?how have you been?

Kangxi only knew that he was in Xiazhou with his fourth and second sons. As for how things were going, he had no way of knowing. When the third, seventh, and thirteenth sons returned to Beijing, they would naturally know.

Wait and wait, Kangxi’s 51st birthday passed. Last year was Kangxi’s [-]th birthday. It should be a big event, but when it happened with Suo’etu and the prince, Kangxi’s [-]th birthday passed quietly. This year It was a bit more lively than last year.

It also coincided with the draft, and Concubine Ning took a fancy to a beautiful girl who was very easy to give birth to for her son, so she asked the emperor to give her son a princess, and Kangxi agreed immediately.When Concubine Ning reminded him about the draft, he suddenly remembered that he still had three sons who were not married, so he hurriedly took a look at the list of showgirls, and found that there were a few noble families who happened to be assigned to his three sons.

Yinzhi and his party arrived in the capital on April [-]th, and immediately went to the palace to face the saint. Kangxi also couldn't wait to learn about the situation in Xiazhou from his three sons and several officials.

When they came out of the imperial study room, Yin Zhi and others all looked tired, the officials could go out of the palace and go back to the mansion to rest, and they had to go to the harem to pay respects to the queen mother, concubine mother and others.

This naturally caused a stir and added a lot of talking points to the harem.

Concubine De took the letter and gift from Yinxiang, she couldn't help being a little dazed, she had heard before that her eldest son ruled over the other side of the sea.

She didn't know how she should feel, she shook her hands twice, took the letter and stuffed it into her sleeve, then smiled and told the maid to open the package one by one.

Yinxiang doesn't care what Concubine De's reaction is, he is really tired, and now he wants to go back to where Elder Brother sleeps in the dark, who dares to wake him up, who is he in a hurry with in the future!

The letter Li Xie wrote to Concubine De was just an ordinary letter of greeting, only three to five lines, explaining that he and his wife had settled down in Xiazhou, and that they would return to the Qing Dynasty when they had time to greet her and ask her to take care of her health.

Concubine De looked out of the window, dazed.

The fifth princess and the seventh princess stepped into the gate of the Yonghe Palace with red faces. In terms of age, the fifth princess is already 21 years old, and the seventh princess is also 17 years old. The two older princesses in the royal family are still unmarried. The daughter is looking for a good son-in-law, but she has concerns about her daughter's fate, so she has to plan slowly.

Kangxi intends to marry the fifth princess into Tong's family, but he is not good at cheating his family. He secretly told his uncle about the fifth princess. How could Tong Guowei dare to agree? Although his grandson is not a villain, all men are a bit promiscuous. , if one day the grandson couldn't help it, stole some incense outside, and died suddenly in an instant, wouldn't he have to cry to death?

In the past few years, Kangxi has inspected many noble children of the Manchu and Han Eight Banners, but unfortunately he has not found a satisfactory candidate.So Kangxi and Concubine De did not prohibit the two sisters from entering and leaving the palace, and they were free to play outside the palace. If they could find each other by themselves, or if someone had a soft spot for them, that would be great.

It seems that this year has had an effect. The sisters have met many young talents in Manchu and Han. Knowing that they are princesses, there are many people who show love to them.

"Emiang, what are these?" The Seventh Princess sharply saw some strange decorations in the palace, rolled her eyes, and said in surprise: "It is the third brother, the seventh brother, and the thirteenth brother who have returned? Did you get fourth brother's gift?"

Concubine De restrained her mind, and smiled gently: "That's right, you girl can turn your head so fast."

In the imperial study room, Kangxi was staring at the two unopened letters in front of him, wandering away. He decided to read these two letters alone after Yinzhi and the others left.

The one on the left is the letter written by the second child, and the one on the right is the letter written by the fourth child. He was wavering at the moment, and it took him a long time to stretch out his right hand and open the letter written by the fourth child.

Li Xie has always been straightforward, he is too lazy to play tricks with Kangxi, the first sentence at the beginning of the letter is to express his gratitude to Kangxi, because Kangxi is not angry about his concealment and the matter of taking Yinreng away, followed by Xia Zhou's introduction, which is enough Three full pages.

After Kangxi read it, he was satisfied. This was the first time that the fourth son had written so much content.Then he stared at the letter on the left again, as if he was a little afraid to open it.

In fact, Yinfeng is really reborn now, and he has also deeply reflected on his past self. Because he is the prince, his words and deeds are often criticized.In this letter to Kangxi, one is to review himself, and the other is that he no longer hates or hates Kangxi, and then the scenery, experience, and feelings along the way.

After Kangxi saw it, his expression was both crying and laughing, and he secretly wiped the moisture from the corners of his eyes.Then Kangxi pondered for a whole afternoon. The problem between father and son was not only the problem of the son, but also the problem of his father. In fact, he should also review it.

After Yinzhi and the rest had a good rest, the brothers and courtiers came to visit one after another. The courtiers who handed over the greeting cards arranged their own time for the reception. Repeat a third time.

Yinhu just wanted to make sure that Xiazhou was the Australia he knew. After hearing about an animal called a kangaroo from Yinzhi and Yinyou, he was completely sure that it was indeed the Australia in his memory, and now it has become Xia Zhou.

Yinzhen sat at the side sullenly, he had been planning how to get back the position from the fourth brother, but he went overseas to become the king and hegemony, he was still not as good as the fourth brother, he was very reconciled.

Yin Feng, who was far away on Fusang Island, received a letter from the capital. After knowing that his fourth brother was starting a new life on the other side of the sea, he couldn't help laughing out loud.In the past, he was the one who got the picture. The world is so vast, why should he be obsessed with the small sky in the capital?The more than a year of free and easy days on Fusang Island made Yin Yan linger and forget to return. He decided that he would stay on Fusang Island and not leave. Then he would train the navy a lot and continue to explore the east of the ocean. Maybe there is still a piece of land there.

Since then, the Qing Dynasty and Xiazhou have exchanged their needs, and the trade between the two sides has developed rapidly. The population of Xiazhou has grown rapidly. In the 44th year of Kangxi, the population finally reached 50. The village continues to expand the city to the east. 50 does not include indigenous tribes who did not join in building a better home.

As for the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi didn’t take those people away from Xia Zhou at first, because the population of the Qing Dynasty was 8000 million, and the loss of 10,000+ people was insignificant. For his son, doesn't it mean that it still belongs to him?

However, if the population continues to be lost in this way for a long time, it is really not good.Kangxi pondered for a long time, and then ordered the Ministry of Households to count the population of the Qing Dynasty.About half a year later, when the Ministry of Household Statistics was completed and the population was reported, Kangxi couldn't help being surprised, but in four years, there were another 500 million people.Kangxi has counted the population for 40 years, and it would be less than 500 million. This time the count is 9000 million, so the number of people taken away by the fourth child is still a very small number after all!

Xiazhou, Xuanyuan City.

Yanhuang Port is the largest city in Xiazhou, so Xuanyuan City, which is under construction, is the second largest city. It is two hundred miles away from Yanhuang Port. There is also a small town in fifty miles, named after the mythical beasts in Chinese mythology, such as Xuanwu, Suzaku, Qinglong, Baihu, Qilin and so on.

The addresses of these cities were determined after Lixie and Yunyao's strict actuarial calculations. With their proficiency in wind, water and gossip, these cities have a certain ability to resist natural disasters, such as floods, winds and so on.Of course it's only relative, if there is an unpredictable earthquake under the land on Xiazhou's side, I'm afraid that no matter how proficient in gossip, the formations arranged by Mr. Feng Shui will be useless.

At this moment, both Yunyao and Lixie are in charge of building the city at Xuanyuan City, while Lixie is surveying the route, and Yunyao is receiving the indigenous tribes who want to settle in Xuanyuan City.

On the land of Xiazhou, the indigenous population should actually be 100 million. However, the tribes are scattered and there is no chance of joining them together.But after they joined Yunyao and the others in their beautiful dream of building a broad road, they were able to be restrained by Yunyao and the others.

Now is the time for the summer vacation. Yinfeng has been running around in various cities for the past two years. Leading the children to run around with Yinfeng.As for Li Jia's and Lin's, they don't even think about Yinreng, the former prince of the Qing Dynasty, they have already found another goal in life.

Now Yinfeng is also in Xuanyuan City, so the Guerjia family brought the children to him, the children are very happy, every holiday can go to different places for vacation, and they can see different scenery.

As for what Li Xie told Yinreng about the heir at the beginning, Yinreng didn't tell Guarjia about this matter, and although he was looking forward to it, but now he puts his career first, so the matter of having a child is really only a matter of choice. By fate.

After Yun Yao finished the negotiation with the indigenous tribe, she walked out of the meeting room, and saw the children of the second brother's family wandering around.Five children, the eldest is the eldest daughter Hongxin, who is already 12 years old. She is in the sixth grade at school and will be promoted to the senior grade next semester.The youngest is the youngest son, Hongchen, who is just over seven years old and will enter the second grade next semester.

Seeing Yunyao, the five of Hongxin trotted forward, and Yunyao asked them where their mother had gone.The children all replied that their mother had gone to find their father. They were older children, so they stopped making trouble and asked their parents to spend more time with each other.

Yunyao couldn't help laughing: "Little ghost!" So Yunyao took the five children to play for a rare leisure.

Three days later, Yunyao signed an agreement with the indigenous tribe, Lixie's route survey work was over, and they both returned to Yanhuang Port, while Yinfeng stayed in Xuanyuan City to preside over the overall situation.

Thanks to the efforts of many people, Xiazhou has developed rapidly. The economy and population are the fastest growing. The slowest scientific research and education are gradually on the right track and have entered a steady development.
