Chapter 181 My Ou Qing is back!
The twenty-eight chambers of commerce from Nanzhili, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, and Huguang did not expect that there would be so many benefits to being among the imperial navy.
Ice layer?
How many rounds of gunpowder can that thing withstand? !
The captain of the canal patrol wants to make some money?
Do you want to see what flag the leader is waving?
Minister of the Honglu Temple, Editor of the Hanlin Academy, and Deputy Censor of Jiangxi!
Look at the flags of the dozen or so ships behind.
Half of them were the Poyang Lake navy, and half were the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
If you want to make some money, ask the navy and the Jinyiwei first if they agree!
Water bandits?
Do you want to experience the feeling of being shot into a sieve by a musket?
Many business owners looked at the large ship in the front and couldn't help but have an idea in their minds, although the European and Lu warriors later approached them again to discuss the matter of gilding Laojun's body.
A lot of money was spent, but everyone knows in their hearts that it was worth it!
Unfortunately, this kind of thing is hard to come by.
Otherwise, they really want to follow the European and Chinese warriors for a few more times. Doesn’t Laojun want a golden body?
Plate Him!
Once a year is fine.
Happy times are always short, and that damn ice layer cannot stop Lord Ou from returning to Beijing.
We actually managed to complete the entire canal from Jining to Tianjin, which is so long.
There is also a river from Tianjin to the capital, which is also covered with thick ice, although gunpowder can be used to clear the way.
But.
This kind of behavior always gave people a sense of déjà vu that would trigger the Nine Clans Match 3, so Ou Zanghua decided to leave the ship in Tianjin Port and have it guarded by the Poyang Lake Navy and the Embroidered Uniform Guard.
He took a small group of people back to the capital to report the situation to Emperor Zhengde.
Sitting in the carriage, Ou Zanghua was holding a hand warmer in his hand, with Liu Qing and Qu Feiyan sitting next to him.
"Sister Qingqing, last January, Master and I met the Beggars' Sect disciples in Tianjin."
Qu Feiyan opened the window a little, pointed outside and said, "Look, that's the inn we stayed in. Although we only stayed there for one night, it was a very thrilling experience!"
Seeing Qu Feiyan's expression that said "please ask me something", Liu Qing followed her and asked with a smile, "What's so thrilling?"
"Hehe. We witnessed the great battle between the leader of the Cao Gang and the leader of the Beggar Gang!" Qu Feiyan spoke of the competition with great excitement. Liu Qing nodded from time to time, seeming to be very interested.
Qu Feiyan asked in confusion, "Sister Qingqing, why aren't you surprised at all? The leader of the Beggars' Sect almost lost!"
"Because before you said that, I had already described this matter in detail in my letter home." Ou Zanghua said with a smile as he flipped through the book.
"Yes!"
Qu Feiyan reacted and pouted, "You two can't tease me for no reason!"
"That's not the case," Liu Qing hugged Qu Feiyan and comforted her, "We all like Feiyan very much!"
Ou Zanghua noticed that Qu Feiyan was looking at him. He looked up and met her gaze, then smiled and nodded.
Qu Feiyan's face turned red and she quickly looked away.
The group returned to the capital city chatting and laughing. Under the guidance of Xiang Danian, Mu Gaoong parked the carriage in front of the Ou residence.
After Ou Zanghua got out of the car, he reached out and helped Liu Qing down.
Then he took his wife's hand and walked into the yard, introducing the layout of the place to her.
Liu Qing, however, didn't pay much attention to the yard. She stared at her husband who was full of vigor and vitality, and was reluctant to look away.
Her husband was indeed the most handsome man in the world, and she could never get tired of looking at him.
But just as they were introducing the backyard, Xiang Danian walked in and bowed, saying, "Big Brother, Uncle Zuo and Mr. Feng are here."
"I see. Take them to the living room. I'll be there in a minute." Ou Zanghua nodded and pulled Liu Qing inside. "Qingqing, look, that room is what I prepared for you."
"I understand! My husband, please go and receive Uncle Zuo and Mr. Feng first. Feiyan and I will just take a walk around." Liu Qing smiled and pushed her husband, asking him to go and do his business first.
Qu Feiyan nodded and said, "Young Master, go quickly! I am much more familiar with the backyard than you are. Many of the furniture and potted plants were purchased by me!"
"You are so smart!" Ou Zanghua pointed at Qu Feiyan, said goodbye to Liu Qing, and then turned and walked towards the living room.
Cong Buqi and Cheng Buyu were also there. They were a little confused when they saw Feng Buping, who was dressed neatly and had neatly groomed hair and beard.
If this guy hadn't carried a sword with him, the two of them would have almost failed to recognize him.
No,
Brother, how did you transform from a down-and-out knight into a noble man in the capital? !
Faced with the sharp looks from his two junior fellow apprentices, Feng Buping couldn't hold himself back.
When the three brothers were living in seclusion in the mountains, who cared about their own image?
But Alliance Leader Zuo said that if you want to be the leader of a sect, you must have some grace.
Otherwise, standing together with Yue Buqun, one is as poor as the Nine-Pocket Elder of the Beggars' Sect, and the other is gentle, elegant and kind. Anyone would choose to deal with the kind person.
At this time, Ou Zanghua came out. Zuo Lengchan, Feng Ping and others immediately stood up, bowed and said, "Greetings, Lord Ou!"
"Uncle Zuo, Mr. Feng."
Ou Zanghua bowed in return, and seeing the rosy complexion of the two, he smiled and greeted, "How are you two?"
"Thank you Lord Ou for your concern. We two are living comfortably in the capital." Zuo Lengchan smiled and then reported the situation to Ou Zanghua.
When Ou Zanghua heard that the Minister of Public Administration Wang Xian personally presented a memorial to him, he felt a little emotional. Were these ministers of the Zhengde Dynasty traumatized by Liu Jin?
There is a feeling that "as long as you are a eunuch, you are a good official who is honest and upright."
At the same time, in the Leopard House in the capital, Emperor Zhengde sat by a stove, watching the Hui people roasting a whole lamb not far away. He had eaten this dish before. It was not burnt or mushy, crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, golden in color, not smelling fishy or stinky, and extremely mellow.
I remembered it today, so I asked my godson Qian Ning to find the best whole roast lamb chef in Beijing to make this dish.
Qian Ning had a white face, a long beard, a broad back, eyes like bells, a tall head and big ears. At first glance, he looked like a man who could fight well.
"Your Majesty, mutton is warm in nature, but after being grilled over charcoal, it becomes hot in nature. After eating mutton, it is best to drink a cup of chrysanthemum tea to dissipate heat and clear the liver!" Qian Ning recommended with a smile on his face, standing next to Emperor Zhengde.
"You are thoughtful, kid!" After hearing this, Emperor Zhengde took the chrysanthemum tea from Qian Ning with a smile.
At this time, Zhang Yong came in from outside, bowed and said, "Your Majesty, the East Factory sent a message just now that Lord Ou is returning to Beijing today."
"Oh?"
Emperor Zhengde's eyes lit up, and he handed the chrysanthemum tea back, saying happily: "My Ou Qing is finally back! Zhang Banban, go and make arrangements. When Ou Qing returns to Beijing, please come to me first."
At this point, Emperor Zhengde glanced outside the door and saw that it was getting late, so he changed his words and said, "Forget it, it's getting late today, let Ou Qing come over tomorrow morning!"
"According to the order!"
Zhang Yong responded, and then said cheerfully: "Your Majesty's deep love for Lord Ou makes this old servant a little jealous."
"Hahaha, what is there to be jealous of, you idiot?"
Emperor Zhengde laughed and said, "Ou Qing is my disciple, a pillar of the country that I personally trained. How can you compare with him?"
"Your Majesty is right."
Zhang Yong bent his waist and said with a smile on his face: "I was mistaken. Being able to accompany Your Majesty is the blessing that I have cultivated for several lifetimes!"
Qian Ning, who was standing by, heard the conversation between the two and became alert. Ou Zanghua was so important to His Majesty, it would be best not to offend him.
