Chapter 391 Xiaoliuqiu
Seeing that all the officials of all sizes were like this, Li Yu simply made a decision and moved his prince Li Zhongyu out of Jiangning and demoted him to a remote place, which was considered to be stationed in the border.
"My dear ministers, I plan to send the eldest prince to a remote place to cultivate one's own virtue. Is there a suitable place?" Li Yu made up his mind and threw Li Zhongyu away from Jiangning, regardless of it.
"When you go back to your Majesty, the old minister thinks that under the rule of the Baisheng Army, Pingyang County is located in the mountainous area, with pleasant scenery and simple people, so it should be a good place to go." Yan Xu went out of the lien and replied.
Xiao Yi told him this matter, and he was only responsible for saying that the specific result depends on His Majesty.
Pingyang County is basically the farthest place from Jiangning under the Southern Tang Dynasty, close to the border with the Southern Han Dynasty, which is almost considered exile.
Xu Xuan was a little surprised. This was cruel enough that the eldest prince was basically abolished. However, he had no intersection with the eldest prince, so he just kept his promise and there was no need to confront Yan Xu.
"That's it, I will make the eldest prince the King of Pingyang and go to the territory soon." Li Yu was already unbearable, but he thought of getting close to the Southern Han Dynasty. Since he liked the witchcraft method, then stay.
Xiao Yi is waiting outside the hall now. Although he is very glorious now, he is still in the sea after following His Majesty to court. He, a eunuch, cannot participate in the court meeting.
As soon as Li Yu finished speaking, a little eunuch at the door came over. Xiao Yi was overjoyed and said, "It's right."
Tan Qianmo, the governor of Yum Army, just took his own way. He took office last year. As long as he had a letter, there were ways to prevent the eldest prince from reaching his territory. It was common for bandits to get into the wilderness.
"The imperial edict is here! Li Zhongyu received the edict..." In the afternoon, someone went to the eldest prince's yard to announce the edict. This was basically the most efficient time in the entire Southern Tang court.
"King Pingyang, why don't you accept the order to thank me?" The eunuch who passed the order looked at the hunched Li Zhongyu. This was the case in the palace. Just one imperial edict was from the clouds to the underground.
"My son received the order!" Li Zhongyu looked depressed. He didn't know where Pingyang County was.
When he found the location of Pingyang County on the map, he realized how remote this place was, and he didn't know how long it took to arrive.
"Your Majesty said that you have already informed the officials of Qianzhou to immediately start building the royal palace. When you first arrive, the conditions will be a little simpler, but the regulations you should have will not be less." After all, it was his own son, and Li Yu just wanted to throw him away, but he was not really going to be punished by him.
"I want to meet my father." Li Zhongyu was scared. It was normal for some accident on the road to see a small order. If you think about it, you feel that someone is going to harm him.
"Your Majesty said, you can leave the palace by yourself, and there is no need to report. King Pingyang takes care of you, I will go back and report my life first." The eunuch turned around and left the hospital.
Li Zhongyu was anxious. He wanted to see Li Yu, so Jiangning would definitely not be able to stay, but at least he would change to a more prosperous place and be closer to Jiangning, so that his chances of survival would be much greater.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at the gate of the yard, I was stopped by the little eunuch.
"King Pingyang, where are you going?" Xiao Danzi came from behind. He was about to jump over the dragon gate in more than a month. He was so excited when he thought about it.
.The first thing he has now is to look forward to Li Zhongyu and not go wrong.
"Go and worship my mother!" Li Zhongyu turned around and stared at Xiao Danzi. If it weren't for his betrayal, Li Zhongyu wouldn't have been so miserable.
"Your Majesty said that King Pingyang is still in the confinement period, so let's forget it." Xiao Danzi believed it. After all, King Pingyang used to go to worship every day.
"Hmph, do I don't even have to go to Pingyang anymore, I just stay here every day?" Li Zhongyu asked.
"If you go to the territory, you can do it anytime." Xiao Danzi said with a smile, wishing Li Zhongyu would set off now.
"I have to worship my mother every day. This is a filial piety for the Son of Man, and my father cannot stop him. If I cannot worship, I will definitely not go on the way." Li Zhongyu became tempted and did not believe that he would not make any moves.
"Prince, why should I do this? I don't want to be decent?" Xiao Danzi was really worried. The prince was also the one who was released. He could not be treated as a prisoner. If this was spread, their lives would not be enough to die.
"Hmph, if my father asks, I have to say something carefully. If I go to such a remote place and don't take care of someone familiar, I will definitely not be able to adapt." Li Zhongyu's eyes turned, and he had to think of a way. If he is trapped here like this, there must be no way out.
Every day when I go to worship, I can finally leave the courtyard. Maybe I can meet a reliable person on the way and spread the news.
"What does it mean?" Xiao Ranzi had a bad premonition. How could this person be so troublesome?
"Little list, I can't bear to leave you. If I can see my father, I will beg you to go to Pingyang with me. In the future, you will be in charge of this palace." Li Zhongyu had no other way, so he could only scare this person, just to be sure that he would not dare to gamble.
Xiao Danzi felt like he was pinched and his face suddenly lost his spirit. If this person really told His Majesty about this, His Majesty would almost 100% agree. After all, there is no shortage of small eunuchs like him in the palace.
And no matter what, on the day I left the palace, I always meet His Majesty.
"What does the prince mean? You might as well say it clearly." Xiao Danzi took a deep breath and calmed himself down, but he couldn't afford to bet.
"I just want to worship my mother every day and talk to Zhongxuan." After this change, Li Zhongyu grew up a lot, and his words were a little calmer that was not very matched with his age.
"Yes, but let me agree first. If you have other thoughts, even if you accompany you to Pingyang, you will never let you go out of the yard." Xiao Danzi gritted his teeth. If it was just a worship, it would not be impossible.
"Okay, one word is determined." Do your best, leave your destiny, and hopefully, you can pass the message out.
Hundreds of miles away from the East China Sea, the Little Liuqiu Islands are bustling today. A large fleet of more than 100 merchant ships is slowly entering the port. This caravan comes from Hangzhou and stops here for both supplying materials and trade.
The fleet usually only stays here for one day. This island is the largest island in the Little Ryukyu Islands. The leader on the island is the King of Ryukyu. He has hundreds of thousands of people and a guard of thousands of people. When he is in a good position, he can talk to the caravans equally.
The leader of the Nanyue National Caravan, Qian Mufeng, is an authentic royal relative of Nanyue and currently serves as Yue.
The nephew of King Qian Hongchu was smart since childhood and proficient in arithmetic. Later, he learned the language and writing of Japan, and the trade in the East China Sea was gradually handed over to him.
Qian Mufeng did not disappoint. The trade has been smooth over the years, helping the South Vietnamese country to obtain a large amount of money.
The fleet was large, and it took a long time to just rely on the port. In the corner that Qian Mufeng and others did not notice, a fast ship left the port and quickly turned a corner and disappeared.
This fast ship was arranged by Song Wumian, the general of the Southern Tang Navy. He led the fleet to a near Xiaoliuqiu Island, searched for an unmanned island, and parked the fleet here to wait.
This island is only about a mile in radius, because there is no Tamsui, naturally no one lives here.
Song Wumian was standing on the highest mountain on the island at this time, holding a telescope to check. He was looking forward to the appearance of the Clippers every day.
"Dang!" The guard beside him cut off a poisonous snake with one knife. There were no one living on the island, but there were many poisonous snakes. The guard he led was very good at being very good, but he had to be energetic.
"Finally appear, go, go down!" Song Wumian saw from the camera that a clutch ship was transferred from the island of Xiao Liuqiu. The crescent moon on the sail was clearly visible, and it was the clutch he arranged.
The warships that were originally moored in the natural haven on the island raised sails one after another. The entire fleet was divided into two, and the larger one was led by Song Wumian, with twelve warships and eighty armed merchant ships. Turn left and head straight to the port where the merchant ship of the South Vietnam Kingdom is located.
The other fleet was led by Chen He, with four warships and the remaining armed merchant ships, turning straight to the country's origin.
The merchant ship of the South Vietnamese Kingdom must not be the opponent of the warships under Song Wumian, but if you want to wipe out the opponent, you must intercept them from the way you come to prevent the opponent from escaping back to Hangzhou.
When Song Wumian led a huge fleet and appeared on the sea, the people on the island suddenly became excited. Such a huge and beautiful warship was only seen in his life.
Originally, the bustling port was attracted by the arrival of the South Vietnamese caravan.
Qian Mufeng felt that it was not good when he saw the fleet in the distance. This fleet was too strange and had never been heard of before. Although the other party had not shown hostility yet, Qian Mufeng felt that he should be prepared.
Although this fleet has a slightly inferior number of warships than him, each ship is larger in size and its combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated. Now that this fleet appears here, it is definitely not for fishing, it must be for trade, so it is naturally in opposition to them.
"Notify everyone, get on the boat, leave the port, and keep a distance from the other party." Qian Mufeng ordered that although the supply of many ships has not yet ended, he doesn't care about so much.
"In addition, send two clutch ships to ask about the other party's purpose." Qian Mufeng didn't want to argue with the other party. He went to sea to make money by doing business, but he was afraid that the other party would be unkind.
"Sir, such a large fleet comes from nowhere." The staff beside him looked at the oncoming fleet, the strange sails, which had never been seen before.
