Chapter 1248 Unpredictable Hong Bao, the Lucky Second Sister Shi
Thanks to the book friends: the rewards of "heart" ni confusion"!
Sparks exploded from the bonfire from time to time, Fang Xing took a sip of wine, stared at the bonfire and asked, "What do you want to know?"
Hong Bao picked up the barbecue, took a vulgar bite, swallowed it and said, "A man doesn't belong to yin and yang without that. Is there anything worse in this world?"
"Of course there is."
Hong Bao shook his head and said, "You don't understand. Life in the palace is not good for those who have lost their roots, especially those who can't read big characters, and they have no hope of getting ahead."
"Our family was able to study under the grace of His Majesty back then, and only then did we realize that people should not live like this, so our family worked hard to make progress, and forgot the knife that we suffered. Gradually, we really forgot."
Hong Bao was obviously lost in memory, and said in a tone almost dreamlike: "After our family went out to sea with the fleet, we realized how big the world is. We are like frogs in a well, and your Majesty does not dislike our family as a survivor of punishment." , entrusted with a heavy responsibility, our family will naturally repay it desperately, Xing Hebo, you should understand this?"
"You are studying Confucianism, that's right."
Fang Xing felt that Confucianism also had many shining points, but it was a pity that it was not a practical study.
"Yes." Hong Bao said: "Uncle Xinghe and the Confucianists are also bold when confronting Maimang. Our family admires it. Then we want to ask Uncle Xinghe for advice. After seeing your recent behavior, our family is too domineering."
"Is it wrong to be domineering to foreigners?"
"Wrong."
Hong Bao said firmly: "Treat these vassals with both soft and hard measures. Does Xing He Bo think so?"
"En." This Fang Xing agreed, and he said, "Are you saying that I am too tough on Champa and Java, will it affect His Highness' future actions?"
Hong Bao didn't speak, Fang Xing said: "What do you want His Highness to be like? Or do you think you can take the position that affects the government?"
"Xing Hebo!"
Fang Xing's words were too harsh, and he pushed Hong Bao into a corner.
He also didn't expect Fang Xing to be unafraid of himself.
"Uncle Xinghe, be careful with your words!"
Hong Bao didn't panic,
He just said indifferently: "The rest of our family said that our family rebelled, that's just a joke."
"Our family has been floating on the sea for these years, it has been very hard."
Hong Bao said sincerely: "But our family still wants to continue to float. If we don't go out to sea, our family can't sleep well at night. So... our family doesn't hope that one day Daming will become a public enemy overseas."
This is an eunuch who doesn't want to leave the ocean, but can't see clearly about Ming's future ocean policy, so he takes the opportunity to deceive Fang Xing.
Fang Xing thought it was funny, so he said, "That was before, do you understand? After Daming wiped out those enemies in the northern grassland, where will the target go?"
Hong Bao was surprised: "Could it be coming this way?"
Hong Bao thought that what Zhu Zhanji said to appease the people earlier was just a formality, and Zheng He and he did not miss this kind of formality.
In fact, it is flickering!
"What do you say?"
Fang Xing said expressionlessly: "You know too much, Ben is considering whether to kill someone to silence him."
But Hong Bao got up abruptly, and asked impatiently: "Uncle Xinghe, is this His Majesty's intention, or... just, our family knows."
Seeing Hong Bao striding towards Zhu Zhanji, Fang Xing couldn't help shaking his head and laughing.
Containment!
Fang Xing shook his head, this mutual restraint made it difficult for Hong Bao and Zheng He to talk about such matters.
But Zhu Zhanji is facing a choice at this time.
Shi Jinqing was drinking with him, and he was quite discouraged about his body during the conversation, so he wanted to ask Zhu Zhanji to designate the next generation of comfort envoys, so as not to be caught off guard.
Zhu Zhanji smiled, and asked Shi Jinqing what he thought after listening.
"Your Highness, minister... minister... the second sister of the minister's daughter, she is loyal to Daming and acts considerately."
After speaking, he felt uneasy. After all, there was no precedent for a woman to be an official in Daming.
Zhu Zhanji smiled, glanced at Second Sister Shi in front of him, and asked, "Java invaded, what should you do?"
This is for consideration, that is to say, Zhu Zhanji doesn't mind a woman serving as a comfort envoy in the old port.
Shi Jinqing was overjoyed, and hurriedly winked at Second Sister Shi.
Second Sister Shi thought for a while, and said calmly: "Your Highness, the Javanese people are brave, but they are only fighting privately, and when they gather together, they are like loose sand."
This woman is interesting, Zhu Zhanji nodded secretly in his heart.
The private fight is fierce, and it is scattered.
This vision is good!
If the Javanese can unite, it is a strong enemy!
Second Sister Shi continued: "In Old Port, as long as there are men, they practice regularly. If there are lazy ones, they only need to talk about being tortured and killed by the Javanese in the past. Few of them can sit still."
This is a good way to warn the people with painful lessons.
"Hold on." Second Sister Shi said calmly: "If the reinforcements don't arrive, you'll be vain and slavish, even if you give up the old port. return."
Zhu Zhanji waved his hand, and Shi Jinqing shouted, "Second sister, step back."
After Second Sister Shi left, Zhu Zhanji said, "Not bad!"
Shi Jinqing was overjoyed, and was about to thank you immediately, but Zhu Zhanji added: "After returning to Beijing, I will leave it to the emperor to decide."
"Thank you Your Highness!"
Shi Jinqing knew that this was a procedure, but he had great hopes.
Zhu Zhanji got up, and Hong Bao hurriedly accompanied him.
"what you want to say?"
After Zhu Zhanji drank some wine, his senses were very keen, and he noticed that Hong Bao was hesitant to speak.
Hong Bao accompanied Zhu Zhanji to the pier and said, "Your Highness, if you need someone to guard here, I am willing to stay."
Zhu Zhanji said casually: "No need, Zheng He is not old yet, and you are not old either. Why, feel that you can't compete with Wang Jinghong, are you discouraged?"
When Fang Xing who came with him heard this, he realized that he had guessed Hong Bao's meaning completely wrong.
Hong Bao nodded apologetically at Fang Xing, and then said, "Your Highness, subject..."
"In the future, it is impossible for Ming Dynasty to have only one fleet!"
Hong Bao was overjoyed by Zhu Zhanji's words, and then left knowingly.
"Their mentality is different from ordinary people, and they are more competitive. And... Hong Bao has his own plans in it, you don't have to pay attention to it."
Zhu Zhanji explained Hong Bao's situation in one sentence, and then said: "Second Sister Shi is a good candidate. I plan to strongly recommend it to Grandpa Huang when I go back. I think Grandpa Huang will not object."
Fang Xing nodded and said: "If Second Sister Shi can serve as a consolation envoy, it means that the court has given the Shi family a great face."
Zhu Zhanji said what he hadn't said: "Shi Jinqing is a smart man. When Daming wanted to pay attention to this side, he put Shi Jisun down and let the second sister Shi take the lead. This is to show the loyalty of the Shi family. Since there is loyalty, then Daming will naturally not treat the Shi family badly."
It is indeed a great honor for Second Sister Shi to serve as a consolation envoy, but after Second Sister Shi goes, the chief executive of Old Port will have nothing to do with the Shi family.
"Have the Javanese started yet?"
"Almost, just one spark away."
Fang Xing remembered what he had done, and couldn't help laughing... For mobile phone users, please visit m.. to read, for a better reading experience.
