The daily life of the science master's book-wearing group

Chapter 446 The First Military Parade

The time went back to five days ago, Laizhou Prefecture.

Fu Chengfeng led the soldiers of the Firearms Battalion to surround the last batch of killers who wanted to come to kill them, and then arrested them. After getting the confession, they immediately sent a letter to Tianjin to inform Tianjin that they could do it.

Li Zhao immediately led his troops to surround the mansions of the four major families.

But they got through the door without much trouble.

As expected, the mansions of the four major families have long been empty.

In fact, as early as the emperor's eldest grandson's birthday banquet failed, they began to prepare to transfer property and escape.

Ning Yuan said unwillingly: "Your Highness, I'll go after him!"

Li Zhao waved his hand and said with a smile: "No need, Wan Quan and Zeng Maozhi have already been separated and waited halfway."

Ning Yuan thought for a while, and then said: "The gold and silver that can be taken away is limited after all, and the subordinates will inform several big silver houses that the deposits of these four houses cannot be exchanged. Once someone comes to exchange the gold and silver of these four houses, it will be reported to the court immediately. !"

Li Zhao waved his hand leisurely again: "Let Lin Wanfu talk about it half a month ago."

A glimmer of darkness flashed across Ning Yuan's eyes, and he clasped his fists and said respectfully: "This subordinate will lead people to search the mansion."

Li Zhao nodded, walked leisurely into the mansion of the Zhen family with carved beams and painted buildings, and while admiring the spacious and beautiful garden, he said to Ning Yuan: "These mansions plus other courtyards are worth a lot of money. There is also the Grange Shop... Haha, it’s good. I don’t need to be too extreme, and I don’t need to kill them all, right?”

Ning Yuan lowered his eyes and said, "Your Highness is merciful!"

Li Zhao laughed and said, "Go and do your work." He stood on the central axis of the mansion, looked at the screen wall in front of him, raised his chin slightly, and the contempt of the victor burst out in his eyes.

Bypass the screen wall, pass through two yards, and finally arrive at the Chung Cheng Hall.

The old lady of the Zhen family, wearing a brown Taoist gown with golden longevity characters and dark flower patterns, was sitting on the main seat, with his loyal old servant beside him.

The two of them didn't bow down when they saw Li Zhao, Li Zhao was not only not annoyed, but also nodded to the old man and said with a smile, "I heard that the Patriarch of the Zhen family is a great person, but seeing him today, I have learned a lot."

The old lady of the Zhen family said calmly, "His Majesty has a great reputation, but an old tree that is about to die will soon turn into dust, so it is not worth mentioning."

Li Zhao laughed, lifted up his robe and sat down on the lower seat, with an indescribably unrestrained and uninhibited air in every gesture, as if he didn't care where he was sitting at all.

Because no matter where he sits, that is the real superior position.

Old Master Zhen looked at Li Zhao with admiration in his eyes, and said with a smile, "I've heard that His Majesty's dragon and phoenix appearance is an incomparable talent, and I saw it today as it is."

Li Zhao laughed loudly, but there was a bit of coldness in the laughter. He reached out his hand and nodded to the old man, and said, "The old man must have something to say when he is waiting here. This king is kind, I will give you a chance, let's say it." .”

The old lady Zhen's seemingly cloudy eyes suddenly burst into a bright light, he stared at Li Zhao's eyes firmly and said: "Your Highness is so outstanding, and he is the eldest son of the Empress Yuan, why didn't His Majesty make His Highness the crown prince? "

Li Zhao raised his head again and laughed loudly. The laughter was too relaxed and indifferent.

"Why, the old man stayed here to make a deal with me? Then tell me quickly, you old bones, you still think you are useful. Then the king will see, what else do you have that the king can see It's eye-catching." He shook his head, finally stopped laughing until his trembling body, leaned back on the back of the Grand Master's chair, and stared at Old Man Zhen jokingly with an expression like he was watching a show.

The old lady Zhen was stimulated by the contempt in Li Zhao's eyes, and suddenly coughed violently, and an abnormal flush appeared on his face covered with age spots.

"The old man said slowly, the matter is now, the king is not in a hurry."

"Your Highness! Before I show my hole cards, I want to ask His Highness for a guarantee that I will spare the lives of my descendants of the Zhen family!" Old Master Zhen's tone was urgent, but Li Zhao still looked relaxed.

"Old man, you say you are a dying tree, but you are not. You are just a vine that can only survive if you cling to a big tree. Don't take yourself too seriously."

"Your Highness! Your Majesty hasn't appointed His Majesty the crown prince yet. You can read the history books to see how many eldest sons have died tragically at the hands of their own fathers! There are still younger concubines in the harem, don’t you want to leave a way out for yourself? Your Highness! As long as you are willing to leave behind a few descendants of the old man and leave an incense for my Zhen family, the old man and the descendants of the Zhen family are willing to follow His Majesty’s lead !Your Highness, the poor should not chase after you, the besieged masters must be quelled, you still have the concubine and the young prince, you don’t want anything to happen to them, do you? Your Highness King Jin!!”

Before the old man finished speaking, he heard a bang, and the mahogany tea table in Li Zhao's hand unexpectedly cracked.

Old Mrs. Zhen was still able to hold on, but the old servant beside him was trembling all over, his face pale with fright.

In fact, when the old man said that "the descendants of the Zhen family are willing to follow His Majesty's lead", Li Zhao was a little moved, but this old man should never, never should have mentioned the concubine, the child, and even less. Talk to Li Zhao in a threatening tone.

Li Zhao hates people threatening him the most!
He was like an enraged wolf king, with a fierce look in his eyes and a dangerous aura exuding from his whole body.

"Do you know what you are like to Da Zhou? Like the blood-sucking locusts. This king pulled you out of Da Zhou Dynasty, but still expects me to save your life? Let you continue to grow up, and then suck your blood." Da Zhou's blood?"

"How dare you threaten me with my concubine! Hahaha! Old man Zhen, why would I want to raise a dog that can bite people!"

After finishing speaking, he gave Lin Wanfu beside him a look, lifted his robe and walked out.

Lin Wanfu sighed secretly.

It was probably because the Patriarch of the Zhen family heard that the eldest prince loved his royal concubine very much, and thought it was His Highness's weakness, but he didn't want to touch the blue dragon's reverse scale.

When the real dragon got angry, he laid down millions of corpses.

This Zhen family, I am afraid that the three clans will not be able to keep it.

East China Sea, Suzhou, near Liujiagang.

The boats of the four major families thought that if they set off half a month earlier, they would surely be able to escape, but in the distance, the son of the Lu family who was on the leading boat suddenly took down the binoculars, his face was pale and his eyes were frightened, and he pointed at a person behind the boat. An inconspicuous black spot, lips tremblingly asked: "That is... what is that?"

Hearing this, the crew all looked towards the black spot.

The housekeeper of the Wei family frowned, grabbed his clairvoyant, and looked at the black spot he was pointing at. When he finally saw what the black spot was, he was terrified and trembling all over.

Ghost ship!
It's a ghost ship!

It's over, they're over!
Lu's parents' son's legs went limp, and he fell directly to the ground.

Seeing that they looked like they were going to be caught without a fight, the Uncle Fan's family immediately became angry: "Get up! Cheer up! Let's go ashore, let's go ashore now! We don't need anything, let's go ashore and hide first!"

Lu's eldest son and the housekeeper of the Wei family seemed indifferent, slumped on the ground with ashen faces.

"Aren't you going to leave?"

Lu's eldest son shook his head: "Uncle Fan, you weren't in Tianjin at that time, you never saw him, you couldn't escape."

"What do you mean?"

"Uncle Fan, let's do it like this for our Lu family. If you want to escape, you can escape by yourself. I still have a wife and children. The court will never spare even a few children."

"You...you want to give all this in your hand?" The Fan family looked at Lu's eldest son in disbelief, filled with anger about being betrayed.

"Uncle Fan, they are all belongings outside the body. As long as there is still life, why worry about not being able to make a comeback in the future?"

"Stupid! Extremely stupid!" He pointed at Lu's eldest son and cursed, "Your grandfather is considered a man, and your father is even more of a man! Unbelievable, you gave birth to such a soft-boned thing!"

He was still waiting to scold, but several nephews of the Fan family suddenly barged in and shouted: "Father (uncle), let's go ashore and escape! It's too late!"

The Lu family's son raised his eyes, looked at the members of the Fan family, and suddenly smiled strangely.

Uncle Fan's family felt cold all over his body, but he didn't have time to think about it, he led the people and left in a small boat.

Lu's eldest son stood up at this moment, looked at Guanjia Wei and said, "Butler Wei, Grandpa said before that that His Royal Highness is very wise and close to a monster, with a cruel personality and vicious means, and must not be provoked. It's me Young and energetic, I am rash and impulsive, but I can't just watch the whole family die tragically! Steward Wei, you go back and tell the old lady, just say that I, Lu Yudong, are sorry for her old man, and that even if it is for her granddaughter, I can't persuade her. Think about it."

……

When the three ghost craft boats led by Fu Chengfeng came up to them, they saw that the boat stopped at the same place, as if waiting for them.

Looking through the binoculars again, the deck was covered in blood.

"Is this... a thief before us?" the lieutenant asked doubtfully.

Fu Chengfeng raised his eyebrows slightly: "Let someone go up and have a look first, I'm afraid there may be a trap."

The selected sailors boarded the boat with the spirit of death squads, but only saw Lu's eldest son kneeling and shouting loudly, holding a wooden box in his hand:
"Lu Yudong, the grandson of Fang's family, has killed all the traitors! The Lu family is willing to donate all their wealth and the treasures of the four families of Lu, Zhen, Fan, and Wei to serve as cattle for His Royal Highness." Horse, even if I am a dog, I am willing! I just ask His Highness to spare my wife and children, and Lu Yudong will definitely thank you!"

The sailors looked at each other in dismay, so they had to quickly send someone to inform General Fu. As for the master Fan's family who had landed on shore, Wan Quan led his people to wait there...

Three days later, Li Zhao obtained from Lu Yudong a box of lists of various coastal ship merchants who had previously communicated with important ministers in the court and China, as well as some letters.

Li Zhao looked through the list and saw the densely packed names on it, and felt the blood vessels on his forehead pulsating.

It's amazing.

This big week looked prosperous, but it was a brocade dress full of lice holes.

In order to let his father have a happy birthday, he planned to wait until after the Longevity Festival before handing over the list to his father for review.

How to deal with these people will have to wait until I discuss it with my father.

In this way, the burning of the shipyard came to an end temporarily, and Li Zhao arrived in the capital the night before the Longevity Festival.

I climbed into bed in the middle of the night again, and the little beauty I hadn’t seen for more than half a month was lying quietly in front of me with my back to me. Thinking of her fragrant and soft body, I felt my heart beating wildly. , as if falling into the warm current of spring, floating up and down, it seems that just drowning in it for a lifetime is the bliss of the world.

Just as he stretched out his wolf paws to do something to the sleeping beauty with his mind full of filth, in a blink of an eye he saw a chubby little piggy being held in his wife's arms, awake in the middle of the night.

Father and son looked at each other, wide-eyed and small-eyed.

Li Zhao put on an angry expression, the little guy immediately closed his eyes, buried his face in his mother's arms, and didn't look at his father.

Gee!
This annoying little bastard!
-
On the day of Wanshou Festival, celebrations will be held in all the prefectures and cities of Dazhou, and the capital is even more lively as if it is Chinese New Year.

Colorful lanterns were hung in every household, flowers of various colors were placed on both sides of the Royal Street, and five-color silks and satins were hung on the door eaves by the street, and there was a happy look everywhere.

Hawkers from all over the country rushed to the capital to do business, and theater troupes and jugglers also showed their housekeeping skills in order to reward money.

On the street, the sound of hawking, horse bells, footsteps, noise, and cheers came and went.

A stage was set up on the square where Caishikou used to kill people.

Today, I will not play the well-known drama, but the story of how the Tartars ran amok in the Central Plains, burned, killed and looted, and how the border soldiers drove them out of the Great Wall.

And in a square at the south gate of the imperial city, the story of how the Japanese pirates burned, killed, looted, raped women in the eastern coastal area, and how they were finally chased by the navy led by His Majesty the Emperor.

This matter is still under the supervision of the inner palace. For these two stage plays, Eunuch Tan even made models of cannons, muskets and ghost craft ships.

The non-physical performance of traditional drama is certainly wonderful, but with the addition of props, the people watched it more vividly and lively.

After singing, there will be a military parade.

It's just that this time the military parade will not be held at the military camp outside the city, but will be held at Yujie instead according to Song Qingyue's proposal.

The entire team is composed of several square formations, namely the cavalry formation, the infantry formation of the Beijing Daying Battalion, the navy formation of the Beiyang Navy, the Jinyiwei formation, followed by the musket formation of the Firearms Battalion, and finally the artillery formation. Finale.

There are drummers working hard and rhythmically in front, middle and back of the team to beat the drums.

A group of princes and lords accompanied the emperor, empress and a dozen or so high-ranking harem concubines to stand on the palace wall of the palace, waiting to see the phalanxes approaching from the Royal Street.

In order to appear more lively, noble families with some reputation in Beijing, as well as civil servant families with a rank of three or more in the imperial court, were allowed to bring small benches to accompany the emperor to watch the military parade under the palace wall.

Everyone on the palace wall has been excited since hearing the drumbeat.

Li Zhao hugged the child by his father's side. The three generations of grandparents and grandchildren kept their eyes wide open, full of anticipation. Song Qingyue was the only one.

At the latest, Li Zhao is simply a beast!The son is still there, so he messes around.

And in terms of the scale of today's military parade, compared to the National Day military parade in the previous life, it's like a play.

Because of hasty preparations and insufficient steps, the last thirty or so cannons pulled by carts are more crudely called than the armored vehicles, Dongfeng Global Express, various radars, tanks, and anti-missile systems in the previous life. People can't get excited.

Ah, it's a pity that I don't know music, otherwise I'd be able to figure out the march.

What a dull parade without Radesky and Iron Torrent.Song Qingyue was probably the only one in the whole capital who thought so.

Those soldiers who were selected to participate in the Longevity Day military parade were even more excited!

Song Qingyue was worried that the common people were afraid of the soldiers, so she specially arranged to meet the veterans in the alley in advance, and came to be cheering extras.

Someone took the lead, and the atmosphere suddenly rose.

Coupled with the foreshadowing of the previous drama, wherever they went, they were warmly cheered by the people.

Even if the movements were not so neat, everyone stood upright, raised their chins, and their hearts were filled with an unprecedented sense of pride!

Seeing the spirit of the soldiers, the emperor stood up excitedly, and applauded along with the beating of the drums.

Song Qingyue stood aside, laughed and applauded, very good, very good, a complete success!
