Chapter 44 Jewelry
Minduluo Island fell into darkness at night. Looking south from the balcony of the Military Palace, the jungle seemed to be out of sight at night, and light shone in the distance in the deep forest. The gold mine near the Military Palace was still working.
The sky was full of stars, and the salty smell of the coast was also cool. He pressed the window lattice and looked at Chen Mu's shoulder in the distance with a thin cloak. He did not look back, but just raised his hand to hold the person over his chest, gently covering his palms on the slightly raised abdomen in his arms, and drooped his head and smelled the breath of the other person's neck.
After a long time, he said, "When the child was born, I might be in Myanmar."
Yan Qingyao did not look up, and was a mother. His eyebrows and eyes were stretched out and he showed more gentleness. He just said in a faint voice: "My words come true, saying that Jun Ye wants to show his power overseas, no wonder others. Jun Ye, when you go to war, I want to go back to Guangzhou and go to the Buddhist temple to pray for the soldiers."
Chen Mu's eyes narrowed into crescent moons, and his expression was not moved but sweet in his heart. He shook his head in surprise on his face, and then he looked up at Yan Qingyao's puzzled eyes and shook his head solemnly: "Never do it."
"The True Lord of Dragon and Tiger is a Taoist god. He does all the work of embracing the believers. His peers are enemies. You can't let the Buddha know the news that we are going to go to war."
Chen Mu said very serious blasphemous words, which made Yan Qingyao laugh and said, "If I go to worship the True Lord of Dragon and Tiger, I guess he will not work."
"Ling, the True Lord of Dragon and Tiger has shown his saints. I ask you if you want a black bead necklace or a white bead ring, which one do you want?"
"laugh!"
Yan Qingyao burst out laughing, his eyes rolled slightly, and said, "I told the True Lord of Longhu in my heart. God knows it, then do you know?"
Outside the window, the moonlight shone on the wind and danced in the black hair. Chen Mu looked at Yan Qingyao without saying anything, and then he opened his hands funnyly after a while, "The True Lord of Longhu knows, but I don't know."
Then he touched his arms, and the flint lightly ignited the red candle on the wall. He held out a sandalwood box with his right hand and grinned, "I don't know, so they all."
Under the erratic candlelight, carved butterflies and flowers are lying quietly in the sandalwood box, hollowed-out silver-inlaid jade peach heart black bead necklace, hollowed-out gold-inlaid jade distraction white bead necklace, silver-drawn flower magpies black bead rings, golden silk peony white bead rings.
"Last year, I sent the pearls to Beijing and asked the 24th Yamen Yinzuo Yuqian to secretly beat them. Do you like it?" Chen Mu pretended to be pursed and said, "I like it very much. It looks so beautiful. I have been prepared for the New Year for almost a year and I can't bear to give it to you."
"Yuqian Workshop!" Yan Qingyao was happy. Seeing the two pairs of jewelry, he couldn't put it down. He suddenly looked up and stared at him, "I did it last year, and Jun Ye kept holding it?"
Chen Mu was serious, raised his chin and looked at the ring and necklace reluctantly, and pointed and said, "That's right. Look at this jewelry, the royal workshop is different. There are many craftsmen in the world who know more about craftsmanship, but there is no such design outside the palace... What should I do with my mouth? I'll tease you."
"The first time I did this, although it was not a steal, and I had to deal with it, and the gold, silver and jade beads were all our own, but it was a violation of the rules to make things in the imperial workshop. I was afraid of being pursued by the palace, which was more afraid of being killed in wars."
Sailor-Saidou-Mr., whose face is thicker than the city wall, never hides his cowardice in front of his family, and said, "I've been waiting for almost a year, and the gold is almost melted. Seeing that Xu Jue is still staying in the commander's seat, I guess it's okay."
Yan Qingyao understood, his eyes were full of doubts. Xu Jue was asked to do the matter. Then something happened was Xu Jue. Why are you so afraid of doing?
"Be careful to make the ten thousand-year-old ship." The famous Nanyang Chen Shuai was secretly happy for his cleverness in asking someone to make jewelry and said, "People cannot always do good things, and it is very tiring to save the world all day long. Doing these things will be exciting!"
Yan Qingyao looked at the jewelry, said helplessly, and looked at Chen Mu, with care and mental retardation written on his face.
"Didn't Jun Ye say he wouldn't fight with Myanmar? He heard from Sweet Sauce that he had all the sons of the Liu family left. When Liu Ge'er came, he was arrogant and went back without saying a word." The joy of the new jewelry could not stop the worries of the war. Yan Qingyao said: "Why do you have to fight and go to the battle in person."
“Run run?”
Chen Mu chuckled and shook his head, "I didn't squeeze Liu Xiaodao. Do you know the Western Yi doctors, who have feet hurt, chopped feet and chopped heads. Local officials in the court looked arrogant when treating chieftains, but in fact they were just petty spirits. If this spirit does not change, it would be useless for me to build a large territory for the court."
"How great is a nation to have the courage to punish even if it is far away, and the heroic spirit of Tian Khan? Even if the country is destroyed, this temperament will be hidden for decades or hundreds of years, but it will not disappear. The T-junction in Beijing is for the purpose of the Mongolian cavalry after the city is broken, so as to stop them - we live in a world changed by war, and war will definitely change the next world."
"I said Liu Xian said that Liu Xian wanted them to be more cautious, not that I didn't respect them. On the contrary, I respect them very much, but I don't want them to know."
"That piece of land has been fighting with us for thousands of years, and is much stronger than my previous opponents, the Japanese pirates, Portuguese and Western pirates, and fighting against them will kill people."
"It is because I want to die that I have to go out to the war myself."
"But, just like Guam, if you recruit Lin Manjue and return, General Chen and Deng are here, they can win."
Even if everyone in the world doubts Chen Mu's combat ability, Yan Qingyao would not doubt it. She just worried: "The military master does not have to go out to the battle in person. Shouldn't the military mansion be able to plan?"
Chen Mu looked out the window. There was still light in the mansion not far from the military government office. He held Yan Qingyao and pointed to Gao Gong's mansion, saying, "You are old and lack sleep. Look, the old man is not sleeping yet. There are people in the military government planning."
"If I want to change that land, I must understand it. There is no other way to truly understand it. I can only see it with my own eyes. If I don't understand it, there is no way to change it. There is the largest land and the most land outside the Ming Dynasty, the prestigious Chameng rice, the sea estuary facing the Indian Ocean, which can support millions of people."
"What's more, I can't push young people to the battlefield, but I sit behind myself, reading the battle report word by word. Could it be that you would marry someone like this?"
Yan Qingyao nodded without hesitation. In fact, she knew in her heart that all dissuasion before the war was futile, but she still wanted to try it. She said, "I am willing."
This made Chen Mu pause before he could see it, and then stuttered and said, "I, I always thought you married me because I was brave, but I didn't expect it was because I was handsome, alas."
Yan Qingyao was silent.
After a long time, she raised her head again and said, "Mr. Jun, I believe that you will definitely win without the blessing of the Buddha."
"Why?"
"Mang Yinglong's weapons are not good, and he can't hurt you, especially his face."
Chen Mu put his hands into Yan Qingyao's room, smiled with satisfaction, and said, "Okay, if you are really willing to worship, I will order the construction of two Mazu Temples in Beigang tomorrow morning. If I am on the sea, you will worship the Empress. When the news of the landing comes back, you will worship the cannons behind the Empress. They are my good friends."
Chen Mu, who closed the window, finally breathed the night breeze, and looked at Beigang with relief.
If the army is defeated, the thirty-six cannon temples will form a shore defense fortification that can preserve this overseas gold mine island for the Ming Dynasty and allow his children to be born safely.
