Chapter 371
After boarding the boat, Zhao Bing could flip through the books, sleep in, and tease the little beauty. He never summoned the court officials once, and the ministers seemed to be happy with this, so it was convenient for everyone to not interfere. But good days are always short. On the 12th day of the first lunar month, a sentry ship reported that a large group of enemy ships appeared on the sea near the northeast of Yashan Island, as if they wanted to enter the inland sea of Yashan from the north. For a moment, the alarm bell rang throughout the bay, and the army was equipped to fight. Six Hideo also sent the court officials to the army to supervise the battle, but he was still in charge of the emperor's boat.
Thinking that he was on the boat and was about to fight, he should always accompany him, so he asked for an interview for the first time. However, the little yellow gate did not lead them to the back cabin, but led him and several courtiers in the guard to the top cabin. 6 Hideo saw that this place was larger than the office area on the second floor. The entire third floor was only simply divided, with a corridor inside the cabin, which was used as a passage on weekdays and could retreat to defend during wartime.
A command room as the captain of the Sheji River is separated in front of it. The captain and deputy captain take turns to serve day and night to manage daily work. The largest part in the middle is the command room of the entire fleet. Even if a hundred people hold meetings, it will not appear crowded. There are offices of clerks and clerks in charge of each case. They can report the situation and convey orders at any time. There are more than ten lounges in the back.
"Your Majesty, the enemy is already in sight. Why is the guardian still not ready for war?" 6 Hideo walked along the way and found that the guardian camp was still on guard as usual, but did not strengthen defense. There was only His Majesty and a few clerks on the third floor. He did not gather to discuss matters at all. After seeing the ceremony, he asked.
"Oh, the enemy can't come today, so why bother to disturb you? It will make everyone feel at ease!" Zhao Bing saw that there were not many people coming, so he let them into a small hall and said as he walked.
"How did your Majesty know that the enemy cannot enter today?" 6 Xiufu followed His Majesty and asked again. He saw blankets in the hall, two long tables were placed casually, several soft couches, futons were placed on the floor, and a few calligraphy and paintings were hung on the wall, which looked like a place for chatting and temporary rest on weekdays.
"Dear friends, please don't be polite, please feel free!" Zhao Bing ordered the little yellow door to serve tea, put on a few plates of snacks and dried fruits, and he chose a comfortable soft couch to sit down.
"Your Majesty, you are really more and more fun. You have made such a comfortable place here!" Liu Fu was not polite. Seeing His Majesty sitting down, he found a comfortable soft couch nearby and sat down and took a piece of snack and said while eating.
"Mr. Liu is a bad person. I dare not take credit for this. Everyone knows that this ship was once Jia Xiang's ship, but was later kidnapped by Liu Shen. Both of them are good people. During the transformation, I saw that this room was pretty good. When I was sailing on the sea, you can take a look at the sea view, drink tea, chat, and stay here." Zhao Bing bowed to Liu Fu and said, meaning that he did not have such a high aesthetic level.
"Your Majesty said it is right. Look at the calligraphy and paintings on the wall are all written by everyone. This painting is also the imperial pen of Emperor Huizong. I think it was hanged by Jia Xiang here back then." Xu Zongren, the Minister of Rites, looked at it and stroked his beard and said.
"It's better that the dried fruits here are better than those in the kitchen hall. Can your majesty give them more rewards? By the way, the betel nuts are almost gone, so I'll give them some together!" Deng Guangjian sat down and grabbed a few dried fruits and ate them.
"If the master wants to eat, he will ask someone to pick it up. What else can you give me rewards?" Zhao Bing said with a smile.
"How dare you be Your Majesty's master? I heard that Your Majesty has started teaching." Deng Guangjian said so sadly after hearing this, it sounded very rude to everyone.
"The master said nothing? You are the minister and refuse to come to the palace to teach, but you blame me!" Zhao Bing blushed and immediately fought back.
"This... I really can't take time when I'm busy with business, but I don't know which book His Majesty's "Four Books" has been read?" Deng Guangjian said embarrassedly, blushing.
"I have read the Four Books twice, and I am now reading the "Tongjian Sutra" and I have read most of the "Six Strategies" arranged by Jiang Yishan, but they are not here, so I can only figure out what I don't understand." Zhao Bing looked at Deng Guangjian resentfully and said.
"Haha, then tomorrow minister will explain the "Five Classics" to Your Majesty and ask Governor Liu to teach the "Tongjian" to Your Majesty. I don't know who is proficient in military tactics!" Deng Guangjian looked at the people in the room and said with a wry smile.
"Don't make fun of me anymore. Ying and his father and Jiang Zongbao are both great talents in the world. How dare I teach Your Majesty!" Liu Fu waved his hands repeatedly.
"Governor Liu is too humble. On that day, Mr. Meng taught His Majesty the Analects of Confucius. Later, when asked, His Majesty could still recite the whole text and explain its meaning, leaving the officials speechless." Deng Guangjian waved his hands repeatedly.
"No wonder Your Majesty is favored by one and the other. Governor Liu and Mr. Deng can get rewards from His Majesty. We can only be in the kitchen hall. It turns out that they are all Your Majesty's masters!" someone said sourly at this time.
"Haha, Wang De packed a pack for all the adults here so that he would not say that I was unfair." Zhao Bing saw that the person who spoke was Liu Dingsun, a Hanlin scholar who had been upset for him that day, and smiled and ordered.
"I thank Your Majesty!" Liu Dingsun thanked the aisle. Perhaps it was because of the different environment, or it was because Deng Guangjian and Liu Fu were chatting with Your Majesty with a relaxed way. Everyone also relaxed and then let go of their reserve and became rude.
"Your Majesty, the enemy must not be slackened at the moment, and we must strengthen our defense." Seeing that everyone was chatting with Your Majesty, they ignored their own problems, 6 Xiufu frowned and mentioned again.
"Don't be nervous about the 6th prince. Zhang Hongfan can't enter the inland sea today. Even if he wants to fight, he has to wait for tomorrow." Zhao Bing turned around and replied when he saw that 6th Xiufu asked again.
"How did Your Majesty know that Zhang Hongfan would not come in?" Seeing that His Majesty was affirmative, Hideo asked again in confusion.
"I believe that there are three waterways to enter Yashan..."
"Your Majesty, as far as I know, only two are there!" 6 Xiufu said after hearing the words of his Majesty.
"No, what Your Majesty said is right. There are three waterways entering and leaving Yashan!" Mao Xiang, the assistant minister of the Ministry of War, interrupted, "In addition to the waterway leading to the outer sea in the south, there are two waterways in the north that can enter Yashan. However, one of the waterways is shallow and can only pass through small boats."
