Liu Ming stood outside the city gate, watching the intersection of the two Pearl Rivers, and saw many giant ships anchored on the nearby river surface.
The weather is very good, and it is sunny for several consecutive days. Guangzhou Prefecture is very hot, and it is completely impossible to feel that this is the climate in autumn in August.
The ships on the water in the distance were shrouded in the scorching afternoon sun, which seemed to be even more gorgeous.
At this time, he heard the military general Tang Jing beside him speak, and Tang Jing said in his voice: As Liu Envoy, you can go south and go to the Zhujiangkou Camp by yourself to listen to the meaning of the Central Army.What are the plans of the Central Army?
So Liu Ming put away his gaze from afar and turned to look at Tang Jing.Suddenly, a sip of wine came to my face, which was very unpleasant.
The civil and military officials who came to Guangzhou Prefecture to repair ships went to the banquet today, which was an entertainment banquet set up by the Guangzhou prefect.
Tang Jing and others all drank alcohol, but only Liu Ming did not drink it because the medicine officer prescribed him had not finished taking the medicine, so he advised him not to drink or be tired.
Liu Ming looked back at the guards who were far away, and said quietly: Why did I leave Beijing and send me? General Tang knew about it?Now, I am a regular servant, and only care about diplomatic relations, the fleet has nothing to do with my official position.I shouldn't care about things, so I'm too lazy to ask about them, so as not to attract people's annoyance.
Tang Jing smiled and suddenly slapped Liu Ming on the shoulder with a palm.
He may have drunk alcohol and slapped Liu Ming's body into a slight slander.
Tang Jing said: For some reason, I can talk to Liu Jun quite well.You speak really, without so many twists.
Liu Ming looked at Tang Jing with a strange mood.
The person in front of me was still the same as before, but because Liu Ming remembered his calmness and decisiveness in the storm, he had a different vision when he looked at him again.
No matter whether it is civil or military, where are there many twists and turns?Liu Ming said casually.
Tang Jing approached and whispered: Have you seen the Jinyiwei?That is what we know, and what we are guarding against is the collusion between soldiers in the army.What we don’t know is that we are guarding against military power. Some of us, the generals with military power, do not speak like Liu Envoy.
Liu Ming nodded quietly and did not continue the topic.
He said: According to the arrangements of the imperial court, the fleet must arrive at Zhenla Kingdom before the twelfth lunar month at the latest.Now, I wonder how long it will take for these damaged ships to stay in Guangzhou Prefecture, so I am afraid that I will not be able to continue my trip?
Tang Jing thought for a while, shook his head and said: If it’s time, it’s time.It's only early August, and there are still four months left to the twelfth lunar month.It will not take too long to repair these ships; those warships that cannot be repaired for a while and have to enter the dock have already gone to the harbor managed by the left and middle thousand households of Yongning Wei.
I see.Liu Ming said.
Tang Jing burped and said: It's still early, let's go find a restaurant and have a few more drinks.
Liu Ming said: I can’t drink for the time being.
Tang Jing slapped his head: Liu Jun said yes.It would be better to listen to the doctor, so I won’t persuade him.
Liu Ming said again: But we can go and have tea.There is a singing girl in the teahouse who can sing songs and accompany guests.
Tang Jing immediately said happily: This method is good. I will follow Liu Jun Fengya for a while and treat it as sobering up.
Liu Ming said: What kind of elegance? Tang Jing should also know that the little girls in those places sing lyrics of stealing people and having fun.
The two of them laughed teasingly, and Tang Jing said cheerfully: I went to Chen Dashang to discuss matters last time, and some people were worried about morale.Didn’t I say that in the big tent, I would like to find a prosperous port to let my brothers have wine and kiln sisters, so that nothing will happen.
Liu Ming smiled and said: General Tang’s words are reasonable, but his words are rough but not rough.He paused and asked again, "Are there any prosperous ports after Guangzhou Port?"What is the Songtai Vilar Port in Annan Country?
Tang Jing shook his head without hesitation and said: Songtai is not good. The city newly built by the Ming Dynasty's official army is almost all soldiers of the garrison.I have to go to Da Nang, Chameng Kingdom. It is said that it has been a prosperous port since the Tang Dynasty. What are the wine and meat?It's just that the little mother looks a little darker.
Liu Ming couldn't help laughing and said: General Tang has a good understanding.However, in terms of status, Da Nang has now returned to Annan.
While the two of them were chatting and laughing, they turned around and walked towards the city.The official carriage that had sent them back to the camp had returned.They had to walk back to the city.
The group was not familiar with Guangzhou City, so they carried the crowded streets and alleys.
On an old and quaint street, a noisy and lively teahouse attracted the attention of Liu Ming and others, and the sound of silk and bamboo was faintly heard from it.
So the two looked at each other and walked in.
As soon as I entered the hall, the musician's sound of blowing and pulling suddenly became louder. On a stage, a woman with makeup on her was singing.
He probably sang a Southern Song, and even Liu Ming couldn't tell which script it was, and he couldn't even understand the lyrics. He sang in Cantonese dialect.
However, the woman's voice sounded like a faint sound.
The two of them found a place with a screen slightly blocked by the seat.When the waiter came to serve tea, Liu Ming ordered a few plates of snacks.Liu Ming asked: Is there any girl singing a song alone?
The waiter understood that they were talking about official words, so he said enthusiastically: The upstairs room.
Tang Jing said: The tea has been served, let’s sit here for a while.
The waiter turned his head and said: It’s so ruthless!
After two of them drank two sips of tea, Liu Ming also turned his direction slightly, looking at the actors on the stage, wanting to hear what she was singing.
After a while, the waiter brought the snacks. Liu Ming turned around and said a simple word to the waiter and sent him away.
At this time, Tang Jing's voice said: My grandfather is an illiterate farmer.
When he heard Tang Jing suddenly talk about his own affairs, Liu Ming guessed that it was because he also told Tang Jing about his family affairs.So Tang Jing regarded him as a friend, and it was indeed not easy for civil officials and generals.
Tang Jing's expression was incompatible with the faint sound floating in the air.
He lowered his eyes and seemed to be recalling, and then said: At the beginning of the founding of the Ming Dynasty, my father defected to the government army and fought abroad all year round. At that time, I grew up with my grandfather.
Liu Ming nodded and said: We are all the same.Those whose ancestors went from wealth in the Yuan Dynasty to the Ming Dynasty were afraid they would not need the imperial examination.
Tang Jing said: I still remember asking my grandfather before, what kind of life is a good day? Grandpa said that he would eat rice and fat after finishing his work.
The two of them laughed together.
Tang Jing said: My grandfather was honest and unwilling to go far and did not dare to do anything out of the ordinary. He faced the loess and his back to the sky every day, digging food in the ground.As long as it is not a place of war, life in the countryside will be stable.But I knew since I was a child that I was not like my grandfather at all and could not stand the way of living day after day.
Liu Ming asked curiously: Is the position of General Tang’s guard commander? He is hereditary?
Tang Jing nodded and said: Yes, I am even more lucky to be an official in the navy.Maybe I have been in the lifeless countryside and have been depressed for too long, but now I want to go out to sea, see various places, and experience different things.I think it’s very interesting that others think the sea is miserable.
Liu Ming said: Everyone has their own ambitions.Mr. Wuliu is concerned about the pastoral countryside, and General Tang is determined to be in the world.If the official resigns and returns to his hometown in the future, he will write a biography for General Tang.
Tang Jing was excited when he heard this: It’s true that I want to leave my name in history?Ha, come and have a drink, one word is certain.He picked up the tea cup and soon realized that the thing in the cup was just a clean tea.
Liu Ming cooperated with a smile, raised his glass and said: General Tang is different from ordinary people, and he does have a headline of writing.
Tang Jing said: At first, I paid attention to Envoy Liu and came up to make friends and chat. I thought you were a fellow disciple.Haven't you taken the initiative to go on a mission many times?
Liu Ming shook his head and said: General Tang wants experience, and I want results.
Tang Jing laughed and said: Haha, this statement is interesting.
Liu Ming thought about it and said in a deep voice: I went to sea this time because my family violated the law. The emperor may want me to avoid the limelight and work hard to go back to convince the public.But at the beginning, I did take the initiative to come.
Tang Jing pondered: For your cousin Chen Zhang?
Liu Ming nodded: If a person dies, he must not return, but he must find the envoy for him.It’s late at night and when I think of the past, I can also ask for peace of mind.
Tang Jing bowed, leaned his head a little to the table, and said: The emperor can personally arrange for Liu Envoy Liu, a good thing that only the heroes in the imperial court can have, what are you worried about in the career path?
Liu Ming said calmly: People in the scholars are different from military generals and nobles.
Tang Jing was thinking about something.
The two continued to chat for a while and had some desserts.When Dr. Tea came to add tea, Liu Ming proposed to go to the upstairs private room.
It was Liu Ming's idea to propose going to the city to have tea, so he would be the owner according to the rules.If you agree to have a little girl sing a song to accompany her, you can't let it go, so that General Tang can't help but avoid him from thinking that he is stingy.
When they arrived at the private room, Liu Ming asked the waiter to find two little ladies, one sings and the other, and specifically mentioned that they should be beautiful.
After saying that, Liu Ming put a small stack of new copper coins into Xiao Er's hand.
With a martial artist like Tang Jing and in such a teahouse, Liu Ming knew in his heart that it doesn’t matter whether the little girl he found sang well. The key is to be handsome.
This private room is thoughtful and there is a small room inside.After listening to the song, it seems that I can do something else.It's just that there's no wine, it seems like there's less atmosphere...
A few days later, the Zhujiangkou Daying sent people to Guangzhou Prefecture and summoned the navy commander and above military generals, as well as some civil officials and eunuchs who accompanied the army, and immediately went to the Daying to discuss matters.
So Liu Ming and Tang Jing both left Guangzhou, rode their horses south on the post road, and went to the official shop at the post station to get ready-made.
As expected, Shangfeng said it was just a matter of deliberation, but it was just announcing the decision to everyone.
The eunuch Wang Jinghong had the king's order and Chen Xuan had the seal and military power. According to the emperor's recent approval and authorization, they could directly decide whether the navy will stay or leave.
The central army ordered the naval fleet to set sail again within August and continue to move south to complete the unfinished strategy.
The weather is very good, and it is sunny for several consecutive days. Guangzhou Prefecture is very hot, and it is completely impossible to feel that this is the climate in autumn in August.
The ships on the water in the distance were shrouded in the scorching afternoon sun, which seemed to be even more gorgeous.
