Daiyu from the Red Mansion is also arguing with people today

Daiyu was tired last night.

She felt that her body was even more tired than when she and Wang Tingyu and his men attacked Shenjing City.

When she woke up, she was already on a carriage heading to Tianjin Pier.

"Your Majesty, are we really going to abandon our parents and go to sea?"

Wang Tingyao pinched Daiyu's face and said, "Why call me Your Majesty? Call me Ah Yao!"

At the same time, he was secretly happy in his heart. After being married for several years, his wife's face was still so soft and tender. He really wanted to pinch it again.

Thinking of Daiyu's previous question, Wang Tingyao said, "Why take them with you? You have always wanted to travel around the world. Now that the world is beginning to settle down, it is a good time to travel.

We don't know how many years it will take for us to come back. We have been idle all the time, and no one will pay attention to us if we don't show up.

But it was different for my parents. If they didn't show up for a long time, the court officials would inevitably suspect that my brother was following the example of the late emperor and secretly getting rid of the emperor.

How can they follow us out to sea? "

Daiyu sat up and still felt a little sore in her lower back, so she took two pillows and placed them under her waist.

Seeing this, Wang Tingyao smiled innocently and rubbed her waist.

"You're going to sea now? Don't you need to tell His Majesty and your parents about this so they can prepare?"

Wang Tingyao increased the strength of his hands and comforted her, "Don't think I don't know that you have been planning to go to sea for a long time. If it weren't for helping my brother to ascend to the throne, we would have set off long ago.

Don't worry, I've sent my parents to the farm. By the time they see the note I left, we'll already be at sea!"

"Humph, you're sensible. What about my father?"

Wang Tingyao froze, his heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself: It's over! He forgot to tell his father-in-law!

He smiled awkwardly and tried to smooth things over: "It's okay. I'll just write a letter to my father-in-law when I get to the post station in Tianjin. We used to go out like this often before. He won't blame us!"

He said it lightly.

Indeed, before they came back, they could not see anyone. In the short term, Wang Tingyao would not be scolded by his father-in-law, but it was hard to say what would happen after he came back.

Daiyu spared Wang Tingyao because he apologized carefully. After all, Daiyu would not be the one to be scolded when she returned.

In the past ten years, Daiyu has traveled across most of the country. She only gave up on those places that were extremely harsh and rarely visited, because she really couldn't go there.

Wang Tingyao stayed by her side all the time after the wedding and didn't care about the fame he had gained through imperial examinations.

This willful behavior made Lin Ruhai very angry, but Wang Tingyao coaxed his father-in-law with just one sentence: "I took the imperial examination just to prove that I am worthy of Yu'er. I don't want to be an official!"

Which father-in-law would not be moved by a son-in-law who holds his daughter in the palm of his hand and does not do anything wrong!

Lin Ruhai was so easily coaxed into smiling by Wang Tingyao that he could not be more satisfied with this son-in-law.

Daiyu felt a mischievous pleasure when she thought of the "big gifts" she had prepared for Yingchun (Qin Yan) and Wang Tingyu in her house near Tongzhou Wharf.

"I wonder how happy my sister and brother-in-law will be when they receive the gifts we send them!"

Wang Tingyao knew that most of the rare treasures that Daiyu had collected from various places over the years, especially the treasures from the previous dynasty found in silk books, were placed by her in the secret room of this house at Tongzhou Wharf.

Only a few of the things she particularly liked and some gold and silver for their travels were left.

These were Daiyu's own property, and Wang Tingyao had no objection to how she wanted to deal with them.

Compared to the enjoyment of the two of them, the newly settled Xin Dynasty needed these properties and books more.

The group played while traveling, and before they knew it, seven days had passed and they finally arrived at Tianjin Wharf.

The inn across from the pier still stood, but after the war, there were many knife marks on the columns at the entrance.

The two of them revisited the old place and had a lot of feelings.

The top floor of the inn had already been booked by Wang Tingyao.

He took Daiyu to the window, which was the place where he first saw Daiyu.

"Look! I was just standing here, peeking for a while, and you seemed to have sensed it and looked up."

Daiyu stared at him with her beautiful eyes: "No wonder I felt a shadow moving, it turned out to be you, the little thief, peeking at me!"

Wang Tingyao hugged Daiyu and whispered in her ear: "You are the thief, the thief who stole my heart."

As expected, they got up late again the next day.

Daiyu hurriedly called the maid to come in and help her change clothes. Daiyu threw Wang Tingyao's clothes in his face in annoyance and scolded him: "Get up! Hurry up and put on your clothes, the maid will be in soon!"

Wang Tingyao then jumped off the bed, walked behind Daiyu, and wanted to help her put on her clothes.

"Since we're going out to have fun, we should do whatever makes us feel comfortable. Isn't it normal to get up late?"

Daiyu pouted and glared at Wang Tingyao without any killing power, complaining unhappily: "It's okay to get up late, but you asked for water several times last night and got up late in the morning. How will those maids and servants look at us!"

Wang Tingyao didn't care: "Love between husband and wife is natural!"

As he said this, he shamelessly continued to help Daiyu tie her ties. However, the more he helped, the more tangled she became, and one of her ties even became a knot!

Daiyu was so angry that she stomped her feet. She picked up Wang Tingyao's clothes, threw them at him, and then pushed him out.

"Go away! You're only making things worse!"

Wang Tingyao was pushed out of the room by Daiyu, and the door almost hit him in the face. He touched his forehead and turned to walk towards the opposite room.

Also accompanying them on this trip were Lan Rui, Qing He, Lin Ji and Yu Ziru.

Xueyan and Zijuan had already been promoted to managing aunts and stayed in Xiaoyao Palace in Shenjing City; Baishao and Qiukui, together with Huang Yongjin, were in charge of Dai's Escort Agency.

Luoluo, Danru and Qingwen got married when they reached the age of eighteen.

When the battle for supremacy was getting fierce, Daiyu released the three families to join the army. Now, like Zhai Yunxiao, they have become the commanders of the city guards and have a bright future.

Qing He, on the other hand, had been ambushed after the final battle, and her internal injuries have yet to fully heal.

Fortunately, Daiyu and her companions had a very flexible schedule, and Qinghe only thought that she had temporarily lost her martial arts skills and was a little weak, and would not delay Daiyu's travel plans.

Since they were traveling with Yu Zilu, nothing serious would happen, and Daiyu just let Qinghe do as she pleased.

Speaking of which, just as Daiyu had guessed before, Qinghe was indeed Yu Ziru's long-lost daughter.

When his wife and daughter were sent to his uncle's house, his wife remarried soon after, and Qinghe was secretly sent to a matchmaker, and later met by Daiyu.

It can be said that Qinghe and Yu Ziru are destined to meet again here at Daiyu's place.

Daiyu and Wang Tingyao finished their breakfast in the room. Daiyu reminded Wang Tingyao several times not to make trouble, and he finished his breakfast honestly and did not miss the auspicious time for departure.

Wang Tingyao pulled Daiyu downstairs with a smug smile on his face: "I don't believe in these things. Any time is a good time to marry you!"

Daiyu blushed, and she quickly glanced at the people in the hall, then quietly pinched Wang Tingyao's waist and said, "There are outsiders here, stop talking nonsense!"

Wang Tingyao felt pain but dared not cry out. He could only clear his throat and whispered in Daiyu's ear: "I'll do as you say! Once we're on the boat and there's only our people around, I'll start to talk nonsense!"

Daiyu didn't intend to pay attention to him. She broke free from his hand and walked to Lingji: "How is it, is everything ready?"

"To answer the princess, everything is ready!"

"Then let's set off!"

After Daiyu and her group left, everyone in the inn began to whisper.

"That's King Xiaoyao and his princess, right? Where are they going?"

"Don't you see all the big ships parked at the port? The last time I saw so many big ships was when they came to Beijing to defend the emperor!"

"Are they going to go out to sea?"

"I heard that when the capital was captured by those bandits, some young princes and grandchildren were secretly sent away by the palace masters. They are not going out to sea this time to look for those princes and grandchildren, are they?"

"It's really possible!"

"Hush - you guys are risking your lives! How dare you talk about such things casually! Be careful or you'll get into trouble! Just go away, just go away!"

The waiter came out to disperse the gossiping crowd. He looked out the door with lingering fear, fearing that the Xiaoyao King and his wife would come back to punish them.

"Wife, you heard what was said just now!"

As soon as Daiyu got on the carriage, she began to yawn.

She closed her eyes and said slowly, "I heard it. Don't worry about them. Just assume they are right. We can use this as an excuse to go out and play. When we come back, my brother-in-law won't blame us!"

When Wang Tingyu was mentioned, Wang Tingyao couldn't help but secretly shrink his neck. He held Daiyu's hand and begged, "Wife, if my brother scolds me, you must protect me!"

Daiyu was amused by him and didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I know!"

Today, in addition to the canal wharf, Tianjin also has a newly built sea transport wharf, which is extremely lively.

Daiyu looked at the scene in front of her and could not help but feel a lot of emotion. This was where she once led the navy ashore.

It used to be a simple fishing port, but now it has been expanded into such a large dock in just a few months.

At that time, Wang Tingyu started the rebellion with the troops of the four major military governors in the south of the Yangtze River, while the five major military governors in the southwest controlled by Daiyu and the Shaanxi military governors controlled by He Conggang (He Zhengyang's father) responded one after another and jointly supported the king.

The rebels set up numerous checkpoints in the three major military prefectures of Huguang, Henan and Shanxi in an attempt to prevent the troops who were sent to support the emperor from reaching the capital.

However, no one expected that a surprise force would suddenly appear in Ruzhou, the heartland of Henan Dusi, and attack from both inside and outside together with He Conggang's troops, and forcibly open a passage leading directly to Beiping Dusi.

In the southwest where Daiyu was, warships had already been prepared and provided support directly from the sea, arriving at the city of Shenjing at the same time as Wang Tingyu.

In the waters near Shanhaiguan, many warships were anchored, each with 18 improved red cannons, all aimed at the troops on the shore to prevent any accidents.

At this moment, the warships docked at Tianjin Maritime Terminal are part of that batch of warships.

After the new emperor ascended the throne, most of the warships were handed over by Daiyu to Wang Tingyu in exchange for the southwest as a bargaining chip for the fiefdom of King Xiaoyao.

This decision naturally caused criticism in the court.

Some court officials felt that the fief was too large, and that Princess Xiaoyao had been working in the southwest for more than a decade, and there was a suspicion that she was planning to declare herself emperor.

However, Wang Tingyu directly and mercilessly refuted these voices at the grand court meeting.

He said frankly that if there was any court official who could control the actual military power of a military commander like Daiyu and make outstanding military achievements for the dynasty, he would be willing to give that piece of land as a fief and reward it.

As soon as these words were spoken, all the civil and military officials in the court fell silent.

The reason why Daiyu dared to do that was entirely because of the special situation at that time.

As the sun and the moon competed for glory, the dynasty's control over the southwest became increasingly weak, and Jiaozhi almost slipped out of its control.

If Daiyu had not acted in time to turn the tide, the Jiaozhi Chengxuan Administration would probably have been out of the dynasty's territory.

Nowadays, where else can you find such a favorable combination of time, place and people!

Daiyu didn't know that the news of her presenting the treasure was publicized by Wang Tingyu.

The noble families then understood that the stolen property was later intercepted by Daiyu when the bandits started the riot. After the new emperor ascended the throne, she presented it to the emperor.

But they were unable to stand up and ask the emperor to return them, and could only swallow this loss.

Daiyu would never tell those aristocratic families that those so-called bandits were actually Daiyu's people in disguise.

She had long disliked those aristocratic families. Seeing that their assets had been emptied out and they would have no choice but to work hard for the new dynasty and accumulate wealth again, she felt extremely happy.

The shipbuilding technology of this dynasty was already very advanced. In the early years, there were fleets going south to do business. The Wang family made their fortune by relying on this.

Now, with the help of the information in the system, Daiyu has improved the shipbuilding technology and even started to develop ironclad ships.

It’s just a short period of time, and no breakthrough results have been achieved yet.

I believe that when she travels to the West and sees how their industry and culture have developed, when Daiyu comes back, the craftsmen of this dynasty will definitely bring her many surprises!

Daiyu and Wang Tingyao stood on the bow deck and looked at the people on the dock who were no bigger than fingers.

She looked at Wang Tingyao with a smile, and suddenly took out a piece of paper from her sleeve.

"Ayao, it's time for us to learn foreign languages!"

"No way, wife! We have just got on the boat!"

"Haha! Ah Yao, don't run!"
