Daming Junior Scholar

He Jia'an just smiled, picked up the mat and said with a smile: "It's just the habit of the Eastern Japanese, and it's not a big deal. I'm used to kneeling at ordinary times, even when I eat, I have to kneel, full of slavishness."

After finishing speaking, He Jiaan sat down on the mat like Cao Yuan, turned his head and smiled at Cao Yuan: "This is our Daming's territory, where there are so many sayings, you can sit however you want."

"Yes, Mr. He is right. Let's sit however we want."

The two sat down with one buttocks, leaving only Yang Tinghe with an embarrassed face, neither sitting nor kneeling. After hesitating for a while, he sighed softly, following the example of the two, Sit down directly.

The side door was opened again, and this time two women walked in carrying a long table, put it down in front of the three people, and then retreated.

Until then, Yang Tinghe smiled and said: "It seems that Mr. He has seen a lot these years, and even the customs of the Eastern Japanese people are very clear. Indeed, we are still not used to this way of kneeling. How can we sit like this?" Take it easy."

"Sit on your knees?" It was the first time Cao Yuan heard of this method, and after He Jiaan demonstrated it for him, he couldn't help but snorted coldly: "These Japanese people will come up with these strange things, someday they will get angry Lao Tzu, just kill them all."

Of course, the last sentence was just a joke, no one meant it seriously, and then the dishes here were served like water.

It was no different from what He Jiaan thought. Although there were many dishes on the plate, there were only a few things inside. It was not a problem to put it on the banquet of literati like Yang Tinghe, but when it was placed in front of myself and Cao Yuan, I thought It is really not an easy task to rely on these things to eat enough.

After eating a few mouthfuls of light fish, Cao Yuan spat out the fish in one gulp, and said angrily: "These Eastern Japanese are really deceiving people, how dare they even serve this uncooked fish? Just teach them a lesson."

Yang Tinghe groaned secretly in his heart. If he knew that he would not bring Cao Yuan here, even if he could just find a restaurant on the street and order him a few big fish and meat, he would be satisfied.

It’s just that it’s too late to regret it now, but He Jia’an on the side explained with a smile: “Master Cao, this thing is called sashimi, and Dongwo is located in the sea. Eat, I’m tired of eating cooked ones, now I’ll start eating raw ones, it’s okay for us to eat some occasionally, but don’t overeat.”

"Why?" Cao Yuan blinked and asked curiously.

"This meat has not been subjected to high temperature, so it is easy to have bugs in it." After He Jiaan finished speaking, he didn't care much, picked up a piece, and stuffed it into his mouth.

Seeing that He Jiaan ate it all, Cao Yuan was not far behind. He picked up a piece like He Jiaan, and then stuffed it into his mouth. But let alone, after knowing that this thing can be eaten raw, he fell in love with it. With this smell, I picked up a few pieces in a row before stopping my chopsticks.

Until then, Yang Tinghe finally asked curiously: "Lord He, if King Ning really turns against him, how sure are you that you can defeat him before he crosses the Yangtze River?"

Chapter 1427 The Heart of the Bodhisattva

After a pause, He Jiaan couldn't help but smiled wryly: "Master Yang is also a person who has been on the battlefield. Things on the battlefield are changing rapidly. No matter which side is absolutely sure, he can win easily. Just like Master Yang once mentioned the battle with King Ning today. , but has Mr. Yang thought about it, if King Ning takes the first step to occupy the natural danger of the Yangtze River, what should we do? How many counties in the south of the Yangtze River have been rebelled by King Ning? Maybe before my army starts, Xiao The small Paju has already been besieged by the army, even if I am willing to fight, I may not be their opponent."

What He Jiaan said was true and false, Yang Tinghe felt that what He Jiaan said made sense for a while, and nodded humbly: "Master He is very reasonable. It seems that we should not underestimate King Ning. After such a Years of painstaking efforts, plus Zhang Yong giving the Fran cannon to the other party in vain, I am afraid that King Ning's strength is quite strong."

Thinking of the powerful Fran cannon also falling into King Ning's hands, Yang Tinghe and Cao Yuan, who thought they would definitely be able to capture it, were also silent. After the room was quiet for a while, Cao Yuan asked curiously: " Master He, do you think King Ning will hand over Zhu Yi?"

"This...it's hard to say." He Jiaan shook his head, and then said with a smile: "Actually, there are two sides to this incident. Either King Ning will hand over his son, and his son will become a hostage in our hands. If he wants to rebel again, he will definitely die." If there is fear, if King Ning does not make friends, then there is only one result. He must rebel immediately. At that time, we will take advantage of the time, location, and harmony. As long as we can force King Ning to fight on the Yangtze River, then we will There is an [-]% certainty of victory."

"It's so high?" Yang Tinghe was also taken aback. King Ning had a Fran cannon in his hand, and when they really fought each other, it was only half a catty.

He Jiaan nodded, and then said with a smile: "To be honest, my lords, in fact, as early as a year ago, I had already started to make arrangements for this situation. First of all, I had already arranged many large Francophones along the banks of the Yangtze River. Cannons, these cannons are far superior to the one obtained by King Ning in terms of range and power. In addition, I am still building a warship suitable for fast movement on the river in the shipyard. The four Franco cannons are extremely powerful when used to block the river."

After listening to it, both Yang Tinghe and Cao Yuan were shocked. They never thought that He Jiaan had already guessed that King Ning had the intention of disobedience, and had already made preparations. He Jiaan was driven away from Nanchang. If he had been working under King Ning, it would be his turn to worry now.

No matter what, as long as He Jiaan has the confidence to stop King Ning's army to the south of the Yangtze River, it will be a victory for everyone. After Yang Tinghe and Cao Yuan relaxed, they poured He Jiaan wine. Here it is, forgive him for not daring not to drink it.

After He Jiaan stayed in Beijing for a few more days, he finally came to Xie Qinhu, who came to Beijing. After everyone met again, they got closer to each other. After He Jiaan thanked Zhengde, he finally took everyone away again. The capital.

Looking back at the majestic fortified city disappearing from his sight, what He Jiaan was thinking about was whether the order to sail to the west would still be effective after Zhang Yong died. If Zhengde forgot, should he remind him? Woolen cloth?

At the same time, the three eunuchs also arrived in Nanchang. Unlike every time they went out of Beijing to announce the decree, this time the three of them felt a little uneasy. If King Ning was dissatisfied with the order of the Long Live Lord and turned his face, the three of them would be the targets of Liwei.

One side is Lord Long Live, and the other side is King Ning. Neither side can be offended by him. Going back, isn't this errand easy?

After the three of them entered Nanchang City, they walked all the way to King Benning's mansion. When the imperial decree arrived at the gate, King Ning was also taken aback. How did the edict arrive?

After hastily setting up the incense table, he brought his concubine and son to the courtyard. After paying respects and greetings, the little eunuch took out the imperial decree and read it from beginning to end. Then King Ning was stunned.

I heard it right, how can I properly let Zhu Yi go to Beijing?

This is really too obvious, it is clearly to let Zhu Yi go to Beijing as a proton, could there be any news leaked out, let Zhengde know his plan?

While King Ning was thinking hard here, the little eunuch who had just announced the decree reminded with a smile: "My lord, it's time to accept the decree."

"Eh? Oh, okay, okay." After three greetings in a row, King Ning took over the imperial decree, and then said with a smile: "The three father-in-laws have worked hard all the way, but something happened suddenly, and this king has to pack the luggage for the little one. The father-in-law will stay here first, and he will be able to leave for Beijing in about three or two days."

Two or three days of work can be waited.

After the three thanked them, they still reminded: "Your Highness, you must remember the time. There was a deadline in the palace when the servants came. If the servants can't go back by then, they will be beheaded."

"Don't worry, father-in-law. It will take three days at most, or two days at least. I will definitely be ready to send the child to Beijing."

"The slave will thank the prince first."

After finishing speaking, the three father-in-laws were taken down by the housekeeper to rest. Only then did Zhu Yi rush over and said worriedly: "Father, I can't go to Beijing. If I do, I will die."

"Shut up." King Ning glared at him, frowned and said, "What if you don't go? Resisting the decree and not obeying it is a serious crime of beheading. Maybe our family will be implicated by you."

"Father, what should I do? The emperor made it clear that he wanted me to be a hostage."

"I know." King Ning was also helpless, hesitated for a while and ordered: "Well, you go and find Mr. Wang first, and we will discuss it before making a plan."

Zhu Yi left in a hurry, and he now knew that all his hopes had already rested on Wang Lun. If he agreed with his father's plan, then he would definitely not be able to escape this trip to the capital.

When Zhu Yi found Wang Lun, Wang Lun was practicing calligraphy with a relaxed expression on his face. Since he came back from Paju, he seemed to have seen through all the fame and fortune in the past, and he didn't care at all. Among the green mountains and green waters, I also regained the open mind of the past. When I heard the door ringing, I couldn't help but look up, and then said with a smile: "The little prince has long said that he wants to practice calligraphy with me. Why, today so free?"

If I can stay, let alone practicing calligraphy, I will listen to you if I want to practice anything. Zhu Yi hurriedly came to Wang Lun, grabbed his hand and begged: "Mr. please help me!" I."

"Eh? What happened? The little prince said slowly." Wang Lun looked at Zhu Yi with a surprised expression.

"It's like this..." Then Zhu Yi learned from Wang Lun what the decree was just announced from beginning to end. Show mercy and save my life, don't let me go to the capital to die."

"Well, that's how it is." After Wang Lun heard this, he nodded slowly, and then said with a smile: "Please hurry up, my little prince. If you can't go, I will try not to let you go."

Chapter 1428 Self-sacrifice

In a short time, Wang Lun had already appeared in front of King Ning.

King Ning raised his head and glanced at Zhu Yi, who had a much more relaxed face, and then at Wang Lun. He somewhat understood in his heart that Zhu Yi must have just begged Wang Lun to speak well for him.

You silly boy, do you know that if you have to stay, you have to rebel immediately as a father. For me who has just suffered a blow, there are still many things that are not ready, and the lost manpower must be recruited. It will take a long time to recast the lost Franco cannon.

Therefore, in order not to attract Zhengde's attention, a certain sacrifice must be made.

In fact, he had already thought up an idea in his heart, but his face didn't show it. King Ning smiled and cupped his hands and let Wang Lun sit down on the seat. At this moment, he smiled and said what he had just announced. With a wry smile on his face, he said: "The lonely king really doesn't know what to do, please teach me, sir."

Wang Lun secretly smiled, he has known King Ning for so many years, can't he see if he has any thoughts in his heart?The more complicated the expression on his face, the more it means that he has made up his mind and just wants to say it through his own mouth.

In the past, I naturally would not refuse this kind of thing, and I was even a little complacent in my heart, thinking that this was the reason why King Ning valued me, but since I was released by the He family, my state of mind has also changed a lot , When encountering this kind of thing again, there will be some subtle changes in my heart, and I will not take Ning Wang's words seriously.

Thinking of this, Wang Lun pretended not to see what King Ning meant, hesitated for a while and analyzed: "Actually, it is not difficult to make a choice. The reason why the emperor wants the little prince to come to Beijing is nothing more than two possibilities. The first is that I have heard the rumors, but I don’t know whether it is true or not, so I want to use the method of house arrest to test the prince. The second is that the emperor has realized that we are going to rebel, but there is no definite evidence. To prove this point, so I came up with this method, no matter which method, as long as the prince chooses to let the little prince stay in Nanchang, there is only one possibility."
