Get pregnant soon, and beauties will have many happy pregnancies

Mrs. Tu took the antidote and left, glaring at Tu Guangjun fiercely before leaving.

"You were demoted to Lingnan, and I came all the way here to serve you, take care of your mother-in-law, and take care of household affairs for the sake of our marriage. I have worked hard for most of my life. Now that the storehouse has been robbed, the first person you suspect is me! You and I have been married for twenty years, but there is not even an ounce of trust in each other."

"Since you trust that Xiao woman and leave everything with her, just let her come in and serve you from now on. I'm too lazy to serve her anymore!"

Tu Guangjun didn't understand why his wife, who had always been gentle and virtuous, suddenly changed her appearance. Not only was she selfish and jealous, she even dared to speak ill of him. She was simply crazy!

Women are so narrow-minded. When the Tu family was in danger, she only thought about the dispute within the inner house. She could have asked for a few more antidotes, but this woman only asked for two. She did not have the kindness of a legitimate mother at all.

Tu Guangjun was upset. He thought that South China City was under his control, but now he found that he couldn't even control his own mansion.

The palace was robbed, the treasury was robbed, and the secret room was empty. How many people did Ji Liao have lurking around him, and how many people in Huanan City were loyal to Ji Liao? When did Ji Liao start planning this?

Ji Liao came all the way from Cangzhou. Was it to drive away the bandits or to seize Lingzhou? How many cities in Lingzhou had fallen into Ji Liao's hands? And as the prefect, he didn't notice anything unusual.

The more Tu Guangjun thought about it, the more frightened he became. Ji Liao had already set up a tight net and there was no way for him to escape. His only option now was to cooperate with the Canglong Gang.

"I can support you in building your navy, and I can also help you prepare food, purchase horses and weapons. Lingzhou has military expenses every year, and it is reasonable for me to do these things, and it will not arouse any suspicion."

"But there is one thing I don't understand, Ji Liao, what exactly do you want to do? If you want to rebel, you should have rebelled in the North. You should stay in the North and don't come back. Even the gods can't do anything to you. It won't be difficult for you to establish yourself as a king."

"But you came back, your life hanging by a thread. I don't know what kind of shit luck you had. The emperor didn't kill you, but exiled you to Lingnan. You went to Lingnan to rebel, and spent so much time and effort to plan and deploy. Isn't it a waste of time and effort?"

Ji Liao sighed, "Master Tu is right. If I had been like Master Tu earlier, abandoning propriety, integrity, loyalty, filial piety, chastity and righteousness, and rebelling in the North, it would have been much easier."

"We are not rebelling at the moment. We are just like Master Tu, occupying Lingnan as a wealthy idler. Master Tu, please don't slander Ji. Lianxinggang is a place of exile. Ji came here to be exiled honestly."

"Master Tu is writing a memorial to the court, right? Regarding the battle in Lingnan, instead of saying that the mob and the pirates colluded, it would be better to write that Master Tu was wise and brave, reorganized the military households in Lingnan, stopped the pirates, and drove the Bulu people out of Lingzhou. Wouldn't it make Master Tu appear more meritorious?"

Tu Guangjun was too lazy to ask Ji Liao how he knew the contents of the memorial. There must be Ji Liao's people in his mansion. Ji Liao even knew everything in his study.

He did think about taking credit for this achievement, but it was difficult to write a memorial, and he did not have any Bru prisoners or spoils of war, so it was difficult to fool people.

The memorial submitted did not reach the emperor directly. If there was any problem found, Duke Yue would take the opportunity to make trouble and he might lose his official position.

He could only write about the seriousness of the situation. After all, it was all the mob's fault. If the emperor took it seriously, he could just send troops to wipe out the Canglong Gang. If he didn't take it seriously, then Lingnan would have suffered such a disaster, and next year they would have to pay less taxes to the capital. In short, it would be a win-win for him.

Ji Yunhuan knew what Tu Guangjun was thinking. They had already forced Tu Guangjun onto the boat, so they had to give him some benefits.

Give a slap in the face and a red date, and Tu Guangjun will never go against them again.

"A Yuan, haven't all the Bulu people we sent to do hard labor died yet? Send a batch of captives to the capital to let those people in the court know about Lord Tu's achievements."

"The Bulu people hastily withdrew from Lianxing Port, leaving behind a lot of things. The weapons must have been ours, and the valuable ones were sold off. As for those worthless wooden lumps, which seemed to be carved with their gods, we gave them a new coat of paint and sent them to Luoyang as trophies. This was enough to fool the emperor."

Lin Yuan nodded and immediately ordered one of his men to go back and deliver the letter. After all, they were worthless things and would just take up space if they were kept. He didn't feel bad about giving them to the dog emperor.

Ji Yunhuan smiled and said, "Master Tu is very talented in writing. He will surely write a memorial that will move people to tears. The emperor will be impressed by your loyalty and bravery and will surely reward you. Maybe you will be promoted soon."

"My Lord, let's open three trading ports in Lingnan to earn more money from foreign countries. Our merchant caravans will also have naval escorts when they go out to sea, so we don't have to worry about pirates. Foreign ships can only stop at our ports and pay taxes before they can enter the port. If we encounter smugglers, they will all be confiscated!"

"I know that everyone here is doing overseas business to some extent. We don't have to be sneaky anymore, and we don't have to worry about being robbed or killed at sea. Wouldn't it be great if we could all earn money from foreign countries peacefully?"

The eyes of several wealthy businessmen lit up when they heard this. If they really had a naval escort and could open up their business, they would definitely make more money than they do now.

The injured guard in the reception hall was carried out, and the guards outside also dispersed. Many seats were added in the hall. Officials, bandits, wealthy businessmen, and former generals gathered together and began to plan the future of Lingzhou.

They may have done it for their own selfish interests, in order to get a bigger share of the pie from the newly opened port, but Lingzhou did indeed move towards a new starting point from that moment on.

In October, the imperial court's reward came.

The emperor praised Tu Guangjun's achievements in the imperial edict, but he did not give him any actual benefits. Not to mention gold and silver, he did not even give him a piece of cloth. He only gave him a symbolic plaque.

Perhaps the emperor felt that the reward was too meagre and couldn't save face, so he generously rewarded Tu Guangjun's relatives. He gave Tu Guangjun's wife and mother imperial edicts, but only gave them a gold-plated badge that allowed them to enter the palace, but they didn't even receive any auspicious clothes.

After receiving Tu Guangjun's tribute, Grand Tutor Jiang made some moves in the court, which led to the imperial decree promoting Tu Guangjun.

Tu Guangjun also served as the governor, in charge of Cangzhou, Lingzhou and Jiazhou. These three places were very remote and had never had a governor before. The emperor was so poor that he had no reward to give, so he promoted Tu Guangjun.

Tu Guangjun was so happy that he went crazy. He thought he would waste his whole life in Lingnan, but he didn't expect that he could be promoted to the next level. Half of the Tu family mansion had been allocated to the Canglong Gang. Tu Guangjun ran over excitedly and bowed to Ji Liao.

"I was too narrow-minded before. As long as you can accomplish something, you will be promoted. General, just go ahead and do it. I will rely on you from now on."
