She Song

Chapter 278 Where is the groom?

"Oh!"

A cannonball streaked across the Forbidden Army's warship, which made the navy very nervous. However, Emperor Ji Sen did not dare to give in because of his safety. He ordered to continue to double-team and then jumped into the gang to snatch Li Shishi back.

Warning invalid?

Liang Hongyu gave the order again: "Fire!"

The bow gun was calibrated once, and the second shot hit the Song warship directly ahead. The distance of [-] steps on the river was enough to fire ten times.

At the same time, the portholes on both sides opened, and more than twenty artillery pieces poured shells at the enemy ships approaching from both sides.

"Boom!"

With the continuous sound of gunfire, the Xuanwu battleship was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder smoke. The four blocking warships were shattered into pieces under the violent storm, and fireworks rose.

The sailors of the Song Army are not stupid. The Zhenguo Army has installed artillery on the ship. What the hell?

"Plop, pop..." Like dumplings, the Song army collapsed instantly, and the officers and soldiers abandoned the ship and fled for their lives.

Ji Sen on the flagship remained motionless, but without sailors it was impossible to sail and could only drift with the tide, becoming a target for the Xuanwu battleship.

Ji Sen was stubborn, but his men were not stupid. In order to survive, they did not care about their superiors and subordinates. They set up leaders on the left and right and jumped directly into the river.

Liang Hongyu could clearly see the situation on the other side through the telescope. When she saw that the other side had abandoned the ship, she stopped the bombardment, passed through the wreckage of the warship, and headed towards the seaport.

The whole battle process was simple and crude. Even Master Li, who was not familiar with war, could see the disparity in combat power between the two sides. What made her even more emotional was that more than a hundred sailors on the ship strictly followed Liang Hongyu's orders. This was unimaginable in an era when men were superior to women.

Recalling every bit of contact with Han Xiaoyao, whether it was the Shen sisters or Zhuo Dani, she felt that this was a natural thing. Women could not only be officials, but also generals. As a minister, she did not seem to be against the rules. .

The Xuanwu left the estuary and sailed directly north to Tanggu. After the day's sailing, after accompanying the Li family and her daughter ashore, Liang Hongyu said with a smile: "Welcome Minister Li to Yanyun! The management committee's carriage is ready , see you later.”

Looking at the wide dock filled with goods, the busy porters, and the ships coming and going, Master Li felt a sense of security that he had never felt before.

"Thank you, General Liang, for taking care of me all the way! Will you not attend the prince's wedding?"

Liang Hongyu shook her head and said, "My husband has already attended the ceremony in Yanjing. His duty is to patrol the sea area. Please forgive me for sending him far away."

Because the Four Seas Fleet swept across Goryeo and Japan, the Kingdom of Jin also started to think about building naval warships after hearing about it, so the Bohai Bay was not quiet. After Gao Bingwu led the Nanyang Fleet on the expedition, Liang Hongyu was transferred to the Four Seas Fleet to monitor the movements of the Jin Kingdom's navy.

The mother and daughter of the Li family boarded the special car and left, while Liang Hongyu returned to the Xuanwu, and after thinking for a while, ordered: "Fleet assemble, patrol Liaodong!"

She made up her mind that this time she would let the Jurchens have a long memory, see what a giant ship and artillery are, and save what troubles they can make at the critical moment.

Like Li Shishi, many envoys and guests gradually gathered in Yanjing City.

Although he was robbed of his woman, Zhao Ji, who was flexible and flexible, still sent Kang Wang Zhao Gou as the royal representative. The Cai family was naturally the prodigal son Cai You, as well as his old acquaintance Yu Shi Zhongcheng Qin Huizhi.

The Kingdom of Jin sent a semi-official representative represented by Han Qixian. After all, the Wanyan family had to guard the last bit of stubbornness, but Han Qixian was using the name of the Prime Minister of the Jin Kingdom, and Wu Qimai was just covering his ears.

After Li Qianshun was crippled by Zhao Kai, he was also disliked by the Kingdom of Jin. He was even more worried about when Tokyo would retaliate, so he urgently sent an envoy to congratulate him in an attempt to gain a favor.

Needless to say, Wang Kai of Goryeo, the [-] new Goryeo troops were making rapid progress under the training of Zhenguo Army instructors. The Li family had suffered successive defeats and could be completely solved in the near future, so they searched for treasures in the palace and asked Zheng Zhichang to send them to him happily. Yanjing.

The Fujiwara clan of Japan not only sent 10 taels of silver, but also sent a hundred envoys to Yanjing to sincerely study in Yanjing.As for Ryukyu and Penghu, which had surrendered to Yanjing, they also sent the legitimate sons of the rulers to Yanjing. One was to congratulate the king of Zhenbei on his wedding, and the other was to express his attitude as a proton.

People from all over the world came to congratulate, and the occasion was unprecedented. The military and civilians in Yanjing became more confident day by day, and many restaurants and restaurants offered discounts.

The most exaggerated one is Han Kee Department Store, which directly posted a notice: Starting from midnight on the fourth day of May, all Han Kee Department Store stores will offer [-]% off, and this happens every year!

Originally, Han Kee Department Store was cheap and good-quality, but now the price has been reduced by half. From the moment they heard the news, many citizens went to inquire about it in advance, select their favorite products, and wait for the fourth day of May to go shopping.

Don't ask, just asking is the bad taste caused by the pain of Han Xiaoyao's predecessor chopping off his hand!

At the same time, the feedback gift packages from the Zhenbei Palace were also distributed to the residents of Yanjing and the soldiers of the Zhenguo Army.

99 out-of-print wedding commemorative copper coins, a pack of red dates and longans, and a small jar of honey. They are not many things, but the meaning is self-explanatory.

But even this small gift has won the hearts and minds of the military and the people. There are very few high-ranking people who can truly enjoy themselves with the people. Along the way, King Zhenbei's love and benefit to the people have been obvious to all.

When the fourth day of May arrived, the four Hanji Department Stores in Yanjing took the lead in setting off a wave of carnival. Thousands of people stayed up late to wait. After the department store doors opened, they rushed in like a tide, waving Hanji banknotes and buying all kinds of things. commodity.

Thanks to the people-friendly policies of the Yanyun Management Committee and the openness and prosperity of industry and commerce, as long as a normal laborer in Yanjing is willing to endure hardships, he can earn at least two or three dollars a month and save a lot of money in a year. Hanji Department Store's unprecedented discount has completely aroused people's shopping enthusiasm.

In less than an hour, many popular products had "sold out" signs, and the store manager promised to replenish the goods at noon, which could temporarily alleviate the excitement of shoppers.

The rising sun is rising in the east, and Yanjing is ushering in a sunny day.

Minister Li Shishi, who arrived after a long journey, also sat in the car for the first time and browsed the street scene outside the car.

The shops are dazzling, tourists and pedestrians are crowded together, and everyone's face is filled with joy. This city is full of vitality and passion everywhere.

The well-informed mother Li couldn't help but praise her, and even exaggeratedly said that the prosperity of Yanjing is not inferior to that of Tokyo.

that's nice!

When he arrived at the small solitude building assigned to Minister Li, with elegant and unique facilities, Li Yun couldn't help but bite his daughter's ears.

"I'm afraid this prince is not as simple as the ordinary friend you said, right?"

Master Li's face turned red and he said vaguely: "I treat him as an ordinary friend..."

Mother Li rolled her eyes at her daughter and said, "You can make up your mind in the future in the Li family. Mom is old. No matter what happens in the family, you won't see, hear or tell..."

"Mom, how could anyone say that about a daughter?"

Li Yun sighed and said: "We mother and daughter must know the rules when we live under the fence...I'm tired, so I'll go and rest first."

Master Li was sitting at the stone table in the courtyard, deep in thought.

After noon, in the Tingyu Garden, the princesses on the left and right took phoenix chariots and left the city from the east and west gates to the north, amidst the playing and playing of the escort ceremony, and went straight to Weihu Villa.

On the shore of Taiji Lake in the core area of ​​the mountain, at dusk, two red boats picked up the two new princesses wearing red hijabs and sailed towards the island in the middle of the lake, where tonight's wedding was to take place.

Hundreds of important guests arrived at the island in the middle of the lake via a long trestle. However, in the center of the flower-studded stage, except for the witness Sima Old Master and the emcee Yuan Shishi, the groom Han Xiaoyao was nowhere to be seen.

Seeing that the red boat was about to dock, the guests began to wonder, wouldn't the King of Zhenbei put on airs and wait for the bride to come on stage first?
