The Reborn Wife is Farming
Chapter 886
Steward Xia's face was full of tears, "My lord, he doesn't know how to drink water. The slave asked people to hurry up and report to the lord, but when he went out, Yu Cheng and his men stopped him and sent troops to surround our house, saying They want to protect us, but they don’t allow us to pass on information.”
Mu Yangling was furious, slapped his palm, and the table next to him was instantly dismembered, "Zhou Zhou is a side branch of the Zhou family, so what's the relationship between him and Yu Cheng?"
Housekeeper Xia knew that Mu Yangling was asking why they were colluding, so he hurriedly said: "Back to the princess, as soon as something happened to the prince, General Zhou sent people to search for it at sea. Those who surrounded us were the officers and soldiers of the government office, and there were no naval divisions."
In other words, Zhou Zhou and Yu Cheng are not of the same mind.
Mu Yangling's mood finally improved, she said: "I know about this matter, you can step back for now."
"Yes." Steward Xia bowed and stepped back.
At this time, the port was in chaos. Zhou Zhou's naval division did not come back, but there were also a large number of troops stationed in Guangdong. Zhou Zhou moved quickly, and he only pulled 5,000 people out and surrounded the port in an instant.
The place where a few foreigners lived was also surrounded. Before their swords were pulled out, they were aligned by rows of archers, and they didn't dare to move rashly.
The foreigners blushed and said, "Protest, I want to protest solemnly, I want to see your Master Yu!"
Zhou Zhou came in from the outside and said with a sneer, "Master Yu? You won't be able to see Master Yu now, but you can only see this general. I'm here to inform you that your ship has been requisitioned by us. Anyone who knows you will let you go quickly." The crew should disembark, otherwise it will be bad if my men attack and damage the cargo."
"You are breaking the law. This is our property. Why do you expropriate it? I want to see your Master Yu."
A foreigner directly drew his sword and said, "You are destroying the diplomatic relations between the two countries. Are you going to make our country an enemy?"
"Diplomatic relations?" Zhou Zhou replied to them with the words of the princess, and asked: "Has our Daqi established diplomatic relations with your country? Besides, this port belongs to our Daqi. You dock here for supplies and business. But they don't pay any business taxes..."
"Commander Zhou," Fei Bai interrupted him, walked in quickly, leaned into his ear and whispered, "Your Highness said, even though we are robbing their boat, we still have to take advantage of it."
Zhou Zhou was dumbfounded, and asked in a low voice, "Well, how does this make sense?"
"Pirates are rampant along the coast of Guangdong. We have been looted within five miles of our retreat, not to mention merchant ships. These foreigners will be clean if they can come and go freely at sea? Didn't you report that there are pirates from Japan and Westerners? That is to say, they colluded with the pirates to frame our Duke Anguo of Daqi. Do you know who Duke Anguo is? He is the life-and-death brother of the Holy Lord and the prince. Now the Duke is alive and dead. The suspicion on them cannot be washed away. We are willing to use it now. Their boat was to save their lives." Fei Bai was well-known by Qi Haoran, and he was very shameless, and said: "If something happens to the Duke, not only you, but also these foreigners will have to be buried with him. In short, you should know the reason. Let them give up the ship willingly."
Zhou Zhou looked at Fei Bai and thought to himself, are all the dignitaries above so shameless?
Zhou Zhou turned his head to look at the foreigner who was watching them, swallowed hard, and Fei Bai whispered in his ear, "General Zhou thinks what the prince said is wrong?" Fei Bai said with a cold tone, "If you want to say this I don’t even believe that people have nothing to do with pirates, but when did you see them being robbed?”
Zhou Zhou said: "But they have cannons on board, it's normal for those pirates not to dare."
"But the goods on their ships are worth tens of thousands of gold, and my Daqi is backed by the mainland, and I have countless soldiers and good generals. They came to rob us, and dare not rob the Westerners who don't know where their homeland is?" Fei Bai said in an old way. : "Listen to the prince, that's right, you only need to ask for it straightforwardly, and you don't need to act like a bandit."
Back then when they were in the Northland, they used to rob big households in the Kingdom of Jin from time to time. The robbers were well aware of their mentality. If anyone in the army knew the robbers best, it was the prince.
Aren't pirates just robbers? The same reason.
Zhou Zhou twitched the corners of his mouth, thinking that the princess ordered him to do this?
He looked back at a few foreigners, coughed lightly, raised his head and chest, looked at them deeply, and went forward...
At this time, Qi Haoran was half leaning on the bed drinking water. He just broke out in sweat, and suddenly felt light and strong, and his brain power returned to normal. Then he recalled Mu Yangling's order and hurriedly called Fei Bai When he came in to make up for the blind sheep, he was not worried about a few foreigners, but thought that Zijin would have to do business with foreigners after he came back. It would not be good for him to offend everyone all at once.
Moreover, he would be impeached if he robbed a foreigner's ship and spread it to Beijing, so he had to find an upright reason. Qi Haoran almost didn't think much about letting the foreigner and the pirates collude.
At this time, he was preaching to Mu Yangling, "If you want to rob people, you have to do it with confidence. Why do you ask Zhou Zhou to talk nonsense with them? Go straight in and kill them all. Just charge him with collusion with bandits. If it’s not possible, there will be someone to defend a few foreigners? Now I have to wipe your ass.”
"Is it wrong for me not to kill people?" Mu Yangling rolled his eyes, handed him a meatloaf, and said, "Since you're better, get up and deal with things."
Qi Haoran nodded, took the meatloaf and finished it in three or two bites. He had just recovered from a serious illness and was very hungry.
After filling his stomach and washing off the sweat from his body, Qi Haoran strode forward. Mu Yangling was slightly relieved seeing his resolute back. Qi Haoran's recovery is undoubtedly the best for them.
But Yu Cheng and the others felt that a disaster was coming. They thought that the concubine was powerful enough, and they reprimanded them and told them to grab the boat. But when they looked at the prince again, they understood why they could become husband and wife.
Mu Yangling just robbed the ship anyway, Qi Haoran even robbed the other party's crew, and asked foreigners to guide them. The euphemistic name is: take the blame and make meritorious service.
Guangdong maritime merchants have not been out at sea for a long time, and their understanding of the sea area is limited to twenty years ago, and they are all sailors who stayed before. Not to mention their experience, Qi Haoran does not trust the memory of these twenty years alone.
Foreigners' ships often travel between the Western Ocean and the Guangdong waters, and they will go to Fuzhou after docking in the Guangdong waters. It can be said that their understanding of this sea area is no less than that of the Guangdong navy.
The navy only fights against pirates near the coast, not even involved in Southeast Asia. Qi Haoran really can't count on them if he wants to find Fan Zijin, so he wants to recruit even foreigners. Their lives are in his hands, and he is not afraid that they will be disobedient.
Businessmen are after profits, such people cherish their lives, Qi Haoran is not afraid of their tricks.
But Zhou Zhou failed to learn Qi Haoran's shamelessness, and he couldn't even talk to foreigners about boats, let alone people.
Qi Haoran was so angry that he directly ordered the foreigner to be tied up. Yu Cheng wanted to dissuade him, but Qi Haoran suppressed him with just one look. Qi Haoran asked softly: "I remember that Yu Zhizhou is from southern Fujian? But my family is small?" Received Guangzhou?"
Yu Cheng was stunned, took a step back, bent slightly and said, "Yes."
