Daming: Stealing Chen Yuanyuan at the beginning

Chapter 216 You Can Have Pride, Don't Have Arrogance
Although there were turmoil in Jiaxing Mansion, Li Cunming did not lead troops to support, but went all the way south from Hangzhou Mansion to Ningbo Mansion.

Jiaxing Mansion is located in the north of Hangzhou Bay, and Ningbo Mansion is located in the south of Hangzhou Bay, facing each other across the sea.The Zhoushan Islands are just in the sea to the east of Hangzhou Bay, which can not only attack Jiaxing Prefecture, but also threaten Ningbo Prefecture.

Li Cunming's strategic intentions were very clear. Qi Dazhuang and Ren Qi guarded Jiaxing Mansion, while he led the army to occupy Ningbo Mansion.

As a result, the north and the south formed a joint attack, which completely prevented Zheng Zhibao's army from landing from Hangzhou Bay, and could only hide on the island.

Li Cunming's [-] troops deployed troops along Kuaiji, Shangyu, Yuyao, Ningbo, and Zhenhai, and firmly controlled the south bank of Hangzhou Bay to prevent deadlock.

Li Cunming decided to sit in Yuyao himself and take command from the center.On the way from Shangyu to Yuyao, Emperor Luanjia encountered a heavy rain and stopped at Linshanwei temporarily.

The heavy rain was torrential, and the water mist filled the space between the sky and the earth. The whiteness was like a dense net, boundlessly netting the whole world.

In the big tent of the Chinese army, Xia Wanchun and Chen Yuanyuan played chess, and Li Cunming browsed the map.Only the endless sound of wind and rain is left in the ears, and occasionally there is a soft sound of falling, which is quiet and warm.

"Hey, Miss Yuanyuan, you've regretted playing the game!" Xia Wanchun suddenly called out.

"Master Xiaoxia, I regret the chess, it's just that I didn't grasp the chess piece for a while, it fell down, and I just rearranged the position."

"Sister Yuanyuan, you are bullying me for being young, aren't you?"

The two started arguing, and Chen Yuanyuan called out, "Your Majesty, come and judge!"

Li Cunming didn't even raise his head, waved his hands and said: "Chen Yuanyuan, you are beautiful, you have the final say!"

Chen Yuanyuan chuckled, winked at Xia Wanchun triumphantly, clapped his hands and said, "I won! Ah, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, and it's all drifting into the tent."

She walked to the entrance of the tent, and suddenly worried: "Yao Qisheng is locked in a cage, exposed, he must be drowned, will he get sick?"

"You're quite kind!" Li Cunming straightened his body and stretched his waist, "Let him soak, I want to see how long he can be tough?"

Chen Yuanyuan pursed her lips and said, "Official Yao Qisheng is indeed guilty of avenging his personal revenge. His Majesty wants to kill him and punish him. Even though it is the order, why torture him like this?"

"What do you know!" Li Cunming glared at Chen Yuanyuan and said with a smile, "You don't know something. Yao Qisheng is too arrogant. He is just like the smelly and hard stone in the latrine. You don't believe it, right? Well, who of you can make him bow his head? If you admit your mistake, I will reward you heavily."

Chen Yuanyuan and Xia Wanchun glanced at each other, becoming interested.Anyway, I am idle, so I might as well find something to do.

The two put on coir raincoats and bamboo hats, and each held an oil-paper umbrella, went out of the camp, braved the wind and rain and walked to the cage in the open space.

Yao Qisheng stood in the cramped cage with shackles and shackles. His whole body was soaked in the rain, and the rainwater dripped down his face like a stream.The rain was hitting his face, and he couldn't open his eyes, and his head drooped.

"Yao Qisheng, the emperor asked you, can you be convicted?" Xia Wanchun said loudly.

Yao Qisheng raised his head with difficulty, shook the raindrops off his face, and said weakly, "I'm guilty..."

Chen Yuanyuan said: "It's good to know the crime..."

Before she could finish speaking, Yao Qisheng said, "But I'm not wrong!"

"What, you have admitted that you are guilty, why do you say you are right?" Chen Yuanyuan was puzzled.

"Officials avenge their personal revenge and kill someone. If they break the law, they are naturally guilty. But if a man has a grudge, he must avenge it. He will not be spoiled by a villain, and he will be happy with his revenge. What's wrong?"

Chen Yuanyuan was at a loss for words, Xia Wanchun said: "As an official of the Ming Dynasty, how can you act on your will, like a wild man in the world?"

"Can't an official take revenge?" Yao Qisheng asked rhetorically.

Xia Wanchun had a headache and said, "Is it cool to stand in the heavy rain?"

"It's great! It's raining heavily. It washes away the dust and makes my heart feel clear. Why don't you feel happy?"

"Is it good to be hungry?"

"Unhappy, quite unhappy!"

Xia Wanchun smiled and said: "Okay, you are finally upset. Your Majesty said, when you are happy enough, when will I give you food. Wait, we will bring you drinks and food."

Unexpectedly, Yao Qisheng said: "No need, after drinking and eating, I feel good again, and I have to continue to starve, so just let me starve to the end!"

hiss!
Chen Yuanyuan and Xia Wanchun breathed cold air, thinking that this Yao Qisheng was too difficult to deal with.The two of them were silent and returned to the camp dejectedly.

Seeing their faces, Li Cunming understood, and said with a smile, "How is it, is it smelly and hard?"

"It's not only smelly and hard, it's simply unreasonable!" Chen Yuanyuan exclaimed angrily.

Xia Wanchun took off his cloak and asked, "Your Majesty, I can see that you don't want to ask about Yao Qisheng's crimes, and even admire him very much. But why don't you stop talking and give him a chance?"

Li Cunming said: "I really love talents, and I want to reuse Yao Qisheng. But you have experienced it yourself. This person is too bad-tempered and too arrogant. If I don't frustrate his spirit, how dare he entrust him with important tasks? He is obviously abusive. If you kill someone, you still don’t know you’re wrong, if you act so recklessly and recklessly, if you hold a lot of power but still go your own way, maybe it will ruin the big thing.”

"People, you can have pride, but you can't have arrogance! Yan Junshi is proud, and I appreciate it, but Yao Qisheng is more arrogant and stubborn. I can't get used to him."

Xia Wanchun said: "Your Majesty is right, but how can I subdue him?"

Li Cunming spread his hands and said: "I don't have a good solution for now, just leave him alone."

"Don't freeze him to death and starve him to death, be careful." Chen Yuanyuan reminded.

Li Cunming smiled and said: "Don't worry, Yao Qisheng is a man with great ambitions. Deep down in his heart, he longs to make contributions and leave his name in history. How could such a person die so easily? He cherishes his life more than anyone else!"

As soon as the words fell, Yao Qisheng shouted at the top of his voice: "Your Majesty, I've had enough fun. Have you had a good time? I want to eat, and I want to change into clean clothes!"

Chen Yuanyuan sneered and said, "I'm convinced!"

"It's not that simple, he's disgusting me. But I'm magnanimous, I don't care about him, go, give him food."

Xia Wanchun and Chen Yuanyuan called a few eunuchs, took the steaming food, and went to the cage again.

The eunuchs held up umbrellas to shelter Yao Qisheng from the wind and rain, and someone fed him.Yao Qisheng ate it in a hurry and hiccupped.

Xia Wanchun took the opportunity to ask: "Yao Qisheng, do you know your mistake?"

"Burp, I'm so full, so good!" Yao Qisheng was satisfied and grinned, "What's wrong?"

"Hey, stubborn donkey!" Chen Yuanyuan stomped.

"I'm done, I'm done, I have nothing to do with you!" Xia Wanchun cupped his hands, turned around and left, never to talk to Yao Qisheng again.
