Chapter 775: Journey

After Gongsun Lan left, Li Jing sat quietly for a long time, looking at the white winter sun in front of the courtyard.

I don't know what Wang Guiniang reacted after marrying Yu Youniang. Of course, she might not feel sad or sad on her face, and she would even have a generous appearance. But he knew that this would deeply hurt her. It was almost a year since Yu Youniang was young and regarded as a princess, but she ate vegetarian food and worshipped Buddha and did not care about the world at all. The couple had been together for a little time and had never had sex in the past year. In the past, Guiniang always worked very hard and wanted to give birth to a legitimate son for the Li family. But this year, she had already stopped this idea.

Maybe Wang Guiniang will be sad, but not too sad. After all, she seemed to have known that this day would eventually come.

The most unwilling woman in the family to accept this fact is Wang Wanjun. This woman, who is extremely beautiful but has a very wise mind, has been turned to the busyness of taking charge of the Hou House and raising several sons after Li Jing hit her several times. Wang Guiniang has no son and is not very keen on managing the Hou House, but she has taken over the Hou House completely. Moreover, she has given birth to three sons in a row, the eldest son is the eldest son of the Li family. Without a legitimate son, this eldest son is equivalent to the prince of the Qin king and has a noble status. Now that she is only a few years old, she has been named Prince Lanling by the emperor.

Originally, seeing that Wang Guiniang was almost a monk, Wang Wanjun became the wife of the Li family housekeeper, and his son might become the prince in the future. But now Li Jing suddenly wanted to marry Yu Youniang, and was a wife rather than a concubine, which was pressed on her head at once. And once Yu Youniang gave birth to a son in the future, he would be the legitimate son. No matter whether Wang Wanjun's son is the eldest son, there are many differences between legitimate and illegitimate in such an era.

According to the Tang Dynasty, concubines cannot be wives. No matter what the wife dies, concubines are concubines. If they regard concubines as wives, men and women will be exiled. Therefore, it can be said that Wang Wan's son will never become a legitimate son in his life. Yu Youniang will enter the Li family and will have the greatest influence on Wang Wanjun.

But if you think about it carefully, Wang Chenjun is not only beautiful but also smart. Although she also has a strong support from her parents, she should know what she can do and what she can’t do. Even if Wang Pu is the Minister of War, even if Wang Pu comes from the top family of the Wang family in Taiyuan, Hedong, if Wang Wanjun dares to do something extraordinary, she should know that the Wang family will inevitably be uprooted.

Wang Wanjun would never be happy, this is conceivable. Li Jing felt that she should remind her to keep her rationality. Besides, Yu Youniang was not Wang Guiniang. Although Wang Guiniang was stingy before, she was born a little cold after all. When she got along with famous daughters like Wang Wanjun, she couldn't help but lose her morale. However, Yu Youniang was born into a top wealthy family, and her family's power was even far superior to that of the Wang family.

After Yu Youniang officially married, Li Jing felt that the power of the royal palace should be transferred to Youniang, and then Xiao Yulou and Zhang Hui were asked to help. In this way, she should be able to suppress it. Although she was unwilling to face these trivial things, if the house was uneasy, something would happen sooner or later, and Li Jing had to make arrangements early.

In history, there were many heroic emperors who ended up in a harem restlessness, which led to the precedent of accidents in succession, which eventually led to the destruction of the entire hard-built dynasty.

When Li Jing left the hall, the front yard of the royal palace was silent and dark. The entire inner city of Yanjing was the Qin Prince's Mansion. Although it was called the palace on the surface, it was actually a large inner city building complex. Li Rang even proposed to change the inner city into a palace. However, it was rejected by Li Jing. Yesterday, the Secretariat requested to build a new palace in the north of Youzhou City. Li Jing originally planned to oppose it, but everyone agreed. After all, the power of the Qin vassal state is constantly expanding, and Li Jing's status can be a palace that represents identity and prestige, so in the end this matter was put on the agenda.

However, within a year or two, the new palace cannot be built immediately, and Li Jing still has to use this inner city as the royal palace.

Zhao Jiang and his brothers Liu Zhijun have been waiting in another flower hall for a long time.

"See the King!" Liu Zhijun and the brothers Liu Zhongfeng immediately bowed and bowed to their knees when they saw Li Jing coming, and were very respectful. However, Li Jing noticed that compared with Liu Zhijun's respect, Liu Zhongfeng was obviously a little interesting. While kneeling, he quietly looked up at Li Jing, which happened to meet Li Jing's gaze.

Li Jing smiled slightly, not caring about it.

"I heard that Xixian is still less than thirty at the moment?"

Liu Zhijun quickly replied: "I live for twenty-eight years after my humble duty."

"Oh, I am just twenty-eight years old this year, so we are the same age. No wonder I will always feel friendly when I see you." Li Jing said gently.

Liu Zhijun did not expect that if Li Jing, the King of Qin who was famous all over the world, could not help but feel a lot more relaxed.

Li Jing stepped forward and pulled Liu Zhijun to sit aside, carefully looked at the general of Xuzhou who was called the deep mansion in Zeng Yuanyu's memorial. He seemed to be quite tall from Li Jing, and he was about 1.85 meters tall. When he stood there, he was full of the temperament of a soldier, standing like a pine tree sitting like a bell. His voice was bright and his voice was thick. He also had a tiger-backed and wolf-waisted waist, long arms, thick legs, thick eyebrows and big eyes, sword-eyed eyebrows and starry eyes, wide mouth and nose augmented, making people want to call a handsome and handsome man when they saw it.

What Li Jing admired even more was Liu Zhijun's ability. Before he arrived, the Supervision Office had already submitted Liu Zhijun's detailed background. He was brave and could drive a strong bow of 300 kilograms. Although he was from Xuzhou, he had good horsemanship. He could fight ten by horse riding and shooting at the right time. Moreover, he was not only powerful at the right time, but also had the ability to fight water. He could charge and make suggestions on the camp. He was completely an all-round general, and he was still young and only twenty-five years old.

And he has a good family background, a descendant of the Liu family of Xuzhou, and is a man of Wen and Wu.

However, he also had some bad comments, that is, this man was very strict in governing the army and dealing with military laws at every turn. He was brave in fighting, but he was fierce in fighting, and was even more fierce in fighting. He suffered great casualties in wars, and he liked to kill prisoners. Even if the other party was willing to surrender, he would have to kill a few surrendered soldiers before leaving behind a few surrendered soldiers. However, he could share the joys and sorrows with his soldiers, be generous and generous to his subordinates, and give them clear rewards. He often distributed the rewards he received to his soldiers. Therefore, he was very supportive of his subordinates.

This is a tiger general. Although it has many shortcomings, it is generally a tiger general who can fight and lead troops.

"Xixian, I know you are a powerful general, but some soldiers also report that you have a hot temper. But in general, a small man is not hidden from the great talent. A tiger general like you is the talent I need. In this way, I decided to reorganize the more than a thousand influence army that Xuzhou surrenders, with them as the main one. With five thousand troops and a new army, you will be the leader. The military name is Liewu, and the Liewu army will temporarily garrison the reorganization and training outside Youzhou City, and I will also grant you the title of Taoist commander."

Zhao Jiang said on the side: "Congratulations to General Liu, and from now on, I will call General Liu Kaidao."

Liu Zhijun was also very surprised. He and Zhang Yun were both generals of Xuzhou. After Zhang Yun surrendered, he became the leader of the Shenwu Army. Now he not only became the leader of the Liewu Army, but also had to be appointed as the commander of the Kaidao. This obviously shows that the King of Qin values ​​him more. This is not a real position. It is a similar position to the rank of the escort, which is similar to the escort of the escort. However, a title that is not low completely means that the King of Qin values ​​it.

Liu Zhijun thanked him loudly, and Li Jing waved his hand to signal him to get up. Then he turned his eyes to Liu Zhongfeng who had been secretly looking at him, "Tell me, what do you want? Tell me, maybe I can help you achieve it." He smiled at Liu Zhongfeng. After the war in Xuzhou, Liu Zhongfeng took the lead in donating a lot of food and grass to the Jianghuai Qin army on behalf of the Liu family. He also led his fleet to transport food and supplies for the Qin army and help repair Xuzhou. He performed well and had a great impact. Therefore, Li Jing would meet him this time.

"Really?" Liu Zhongfeng said excitedly, his eyes shining, "If I make a wish, can the King of Qin help me realize it?"

"Of course, it must be within the scope of my ability." Li Jing smiled. He naturally knew that although Liu Zhongfeng seemed young, he might immediately take out family food to work in the army after the war in Xuzhou, and took the lead in setting an example. He even led his fleet to help the Qin army transport food, grass and supplies. This fully shows that this is not a stupid person, on the contrary, he is an extremely smart person. For such a person, Li Jing doesn't have to worry about him saying anything too much.

Sure enough, Liu Zhongfeng bowed and bowed: "I have a request below to ask the King of Qin to agree. I want to buy sea boats from the King of Qin, form an ocean-going caravan, buy goods from Dengzhou and go to the extremely far Taixi country to trade."

"Hahaha!" Li Jing laughed. Liu Zhongfeng was indeed a clear-headed person. "Well, I'm sure. You can take my handbook to the shipyard in Dengzhou to buy the sea boat you want, and there are discounts. In addition, you can also buy the goods you want in any port of my Qinfan. In addition, I will allow you to purchase a batch of weapons within the specified quantity to protect the trade."

After a pause, Li Jing said again: "To commend you for your doings in Xuzhou, I will now specially grant you the title of commander of opening the sea. In the future, if you walk on the sea, as long as you hold this banner, you will definitely have unexpected benefits."

Now, Liu Zhongfeng, who had just maintained his calmness, could not help but be moved.

Li Jing specially approved the handwritten letter to him, which only allowed him to easily purchase sea ships and sea goods. But if he had this title, he would have become a official Qinfan businessman who was under the banner of the King of Qin. It is conceivable that the convenience and safety it could bring.

With the official background given by the King of Qin, there is nothing to worry about when the supply stops along the way from the north to Jiaozhou. One official title and one flag are better than ten thousand taels of gold.

Li Jing was drunk at this time and was extremely tired.

"Work hard, there is great potential in the sea! Maybe one day, you will become a legendary maritime merchant, and your name will become a legend that countless people have praised! If one day, will you still remember today?"

"Will my name become a legend?" Liu Zhongfeng's young face was filled with shock and yearning, and he murmured: "If there really is one day, this legend will always obey the King of Qin!"

Maybe, Liu Zhongfeng! But Li Jing believes that even if Liu Zhongfeng can really become a legendary maritime businessman one day, at that time, Li Jing will make Liu Zhongfeng still maintain his awe of him today!
