Chapter 162 The Love between Li Hongji and Mrs. Gao
Three hundred and twenty artillery pieces bombarded the sea for an hour.
Then, in the evening, the heavy rain stopped.
Many people say that even the might of God must submit to His Majesty's authority. Yun Zhao himself knows that the precipitation brought by the typhoon is difficult to sustain, and it should stop after raining for a whole day and night.
Although Yang Xiong knew that there must be something fishy, as a native of the Ming Dynasty, he still respected the power of heaven and earth, and imperial power, in his eyes, was also a kind of power of heaven.
Most of Guangzhou is soaked in water, and even the air is humid.
The gray sky is full of water vapor. Occasionally there is thunder and the air shakes, and the water droplets floating in the air will quickly condense into raindrops and fall to the ground.
This is even more true in the room. There is already heavy mist on the glass, and Qian Duoduo's thin silk clothes have been tightly wrapped around her body. She is curvy and beautiful, but has a bad temper. .
At this time, Guangzhou has completely turned into a water world.
This makes people uncomfortable. If you want to keep the house dry, you must ventilate it. The moisture in the air is too heavy, and ventilation will not work. If you use fire to bake it - in the hot city of Guangzhou , doing so is purely self-destructive.
The emperor came to Guangzhou during the season that is least suitable for human habitation.
As a last resort, Yun Zhao had no choice but to take a group of people to live at the seaside. At this moment, only the seaside could look refreshing because of the sea breeze.
Qian Duoduo had never seen the sea before, and Feng Ying was very disappointed with the sea in front of him.
Indeed, the seaside without the blue sky, beach, coconut trees, seagulls, sea boats, and clear water is really disappointing.
Due to the typhoon, the beach was full of garbage, and the coconut trees were swaying. The leaves of the palm trees were torn and they stood like beggars on the beach.
The sea water is still turbulent, mixed with white foam, and the garbage in the sea is sent to the coast over and over again.
Many women wearing sackcloth and wearing filial piety are calling for ghosts at the beach with their young children. They walk on the beach over and over again, hoping that their beloved ones who have wandered into the sea can return safely.
Qian Duoduo saw that these women and orphans were pitiful, so he ordered the construction of a Mazu temple in Baiyun Mountain. He also allocated funds to build the Minggu Garden inside the Mazu temple, which is homophonic for orphans, specifically to provide relief to those who had lost their source of livelihood. of loneliness.
At Yang Xiong's request, Yun Zhao decreed to confer Mazu as "the Holy Mother of the Wonderful Spirits who protect the country and protect the people, Ying Hongren and Puji Tianfei", and specially allocated funds to establish a maritime rescue team equipped with giant iron-clad soldiers. One ship, two schooners, with a rated crew of four hundred.
After these things were done, the sea became calm.
In fact, it was not because of these things that it became calm. , even if Yun Zhao does nothing, the result will be the same, but it is completely different in people's hearts.
When the tide went out, a giant whale was left on the beach.
In the shallow sea not far away, there used to be a giant whale whining there constantly, and would come to the beach when the tide was high. The fishermen said that this was a whale couple.
Once one of the loving couple's wings breaks, the fate of the other will not be so good. Sure enough, when the tide goes out, the other whale is reluctant to leave his partner, so he also runs aground.
This kind of giant whale could not be seen in Guangzhou originally. This kind of giant whale can only be seen off the coast of Taiwan. Now, he has really appeared in Guangzhou and also appeared in Yunzhao. Within view of the villa.
"Damn Li Hongji, even if he dies, he won't let me feel at ease!"
Yun Zhao has completely entered into the content of his own story.
He even thought that the dead whale was Li Hongji, and the whale that was still alive should be Li Hongji's wife, Mrs. Gao.
Not only Yun Zhao saw it this way, but also Yang Xiong. In the end, Guangzhou and all the officials brought by Yun Zhao agreed with this view.
Because the whole thing is too miraculous and cannot be arranged by man, it can only be classified as the will of God.
The whale, which looked as huge as two hills, came to Guangzhou Bay, which had never come before, and appeared directly in the emperor's field of vision. Coupled with the wind and rain that had just subsided, It’s hard not to believe it.
As a result, there is a lot of room for discussion about Yun Zhao's previous order not to allow Madam Gao to lead the remaining giant bandits back to the Ming Dynasty.
Another whale, although fishermen kept pouring water on him to save him, he still died. At this time, everyone hoped that the emperor could forgive the descendants of the giant pirates who were no different from the savages. .
Yun Zhao is still as stone-hearted.
Until a whale's belly exploded, causing an earth-shattering incident and scattering its internal organs everywhere, under the leadership of Yang Xiong, hundreds of officials came forward one after another, hoping that the emperor could pardon Madam Gao. A group of people eliminated the last trace of hostility in the Ming Dynasty.
If you kill people with no more than a nod, people will blow themselves up and plead. If you persist, there will really be no benefit at all.
Yunzhao could even imagine that if he did not issue a decree of pardon, after another whale began to ejaculate and explode himself, he would definitely wear a ruthless hat on his head.
As a last resort, Yunzhao issued a decree to pardon Mrs. Gao and her party, allowing them to return south, but they could only settle in North Korea and were not allowed to set foot in the Daimyo homeland for the rest of their lives...
This It was Yun Zhao's last insistence.
The bodies of the two giant whales were finally dragged into the deep sea by the steamship with long steel cables. Then, it was time for the whales to fall. The sea nourished their huge bodies. , in the end it has to be given back to the sea.
Yun Zhao was very satisfied with the result. Although Li Hongji’s end was miserable,However, he also provided endless creative materials for those literati in the Ming Dynasty who liked to write dramas.
Yun Zhao could imagine that in such a big drama, he would definitely play a role similar to Erlang Shen in "Agarwood Splits the Mountain to Save His Mother".
Since beating up Yang Xiong, more and more official children of the Lantian Dynasty have gone to sea. After all, wealth comes from the sea, and the pursuit of wealth is also one of human nature.
That’s it.
Yun Zhao’s purpose of driving the jackals, tigers and leopards to the sea was finally achieved.
The Ming Dynasty has become a relatively clean land.
From now on, it will operate and develop on its own according to new rules. Although it is a little slower, Yun Zhao believes that this does not matter. As long as it starts to develop, the voyage of the Ming Dynasty's giant ship will not stop. step.
The autumn wind in the Central Plains has come, and a thick stack of files has been piled on Yun Zhao's desk.
There are 1,421 prisoners to be executed this year.
As long as Yun Zhao makes a cross with a red pen, these people's heads will fall to the ground. There is no second possibility.
Zhang Guozhu wrote in a memorial that he hoped the emperor could pardon a few of them to show that God was kind to people. Yun Zhao felt that this was false.
Follow the official account: Book Friends Base Camp, follow and you will get cash and coins!
Forgiving the evildoers is an injustice to those victims.
The law is the law. Since the Department of Punishment and the Ministry of Law have approved it, it will be implemented. There is no need for him to let a few bad guys go just to show mercy.
A group of people and others asked Qian because the Queen was about to give birth. In order for the future prince to be born smoothly, pardoning a few people would bring blessings to the child.
Yun Zhao doesn’t believe this.
The reason why he believed that Li Hongji turned into a whale some time ago was entirely because he wanted to believe it. As for other things, he still didn't believe it.
Fundamentally speaking, Yun Zhao has never been a likable person, and he does not want everyone to like him.
The emperor issued the Autumn Jue Order, which was a symbol of power and could not be traded.
Yun Zhao had no way to verify the cases of these people one by one, but he must know those people were executed. The list was very long, and Yun Zhao did not see any familiar or impressive names. This is A heart-warming good thing.
So, when he picked up the ink pen and put a big red X on the list, these criminals were dead.
Yun Zhao's work became easier and easier, but his secretarial staff became larger and larger. After arriving in Guangzhou, the number of secretaries increased from 277 to 529.
Their divisions into industries are becoming more and more detailed, and their views on things are becoming more and more detailed.
As long as Yun Zhao wanted to know something, or wanted to know something about a certain place or a certain army, Li Guocheng would quickly find relevant personnel and tell the emperor what he wanted to know.Clearly.
Once something goes wrong, or something goes wrong with a certain army in a certain place, these people will quickly report it to the emperor.
The purpose of Li Guocheng establishing this team is to facilitate the emperor to govern the world no matter where he is, or to look after the world that belongs to him.
Guangzhou started building railways as early as three years ago. However, there are not many railways here. It has just begun. Yun Zhao was very satisfied after checking the railways. At least, this time the wind disaster, floods, railways It plays a big role in transportation.
According to Yang Xiong’s report, within ten years, Guangzhou’s railway network will form a network within its jurisdiction. After Nanchang Prefecture’s railway network is also formed, it will connect the two places and eventually connect the whole country.
At that time, not only the railways will be connected, but even the telegraphs will be connected. From then on, once the four capitals of Lantian are connected, the Lantian Dynasty will quickly enter a new era.
Now, all you have to do is wait slowly, expect slowly, and wait for all the flowers you planted to bloom.
When the time entered September, Qian Duoduo gave birth to the second princess of the Lantian Dynasty, Yun Duo, at the Baiyun Mountain Palace.
Qian Duoduo was very disappointed that he did not give birth to a prince, but Feng Ying secretly rejoiced and kept telling Qian Duoduo how good his daughter was.
This made Qian Duoduo even more furious.
But Yun Zhao liked his daughter very much. From the day the child was born, Yun Zhao abandoned all the majesty of the emperor, so that when Yang Xiong paid homage to the emperor, he had to wait for the emperor to look at his daughter. After falling asleep, it was his turn as an important minister.
