Practical Life in the Red Mansion

Chapter 99 Unpredictable thoughts

Mu Zheng rushed to Fujian in secret, and thunderbolts captured people in the Fujian navy who had connections with the Mu family. But when he took over the navy, he found that the military discipline was lax, the equipment was outdated, and some of the weapons had rusted. The storeroom is full of dust and cannot be used at all.Mu Zheng was in contact with the navy for the first time, and he didn't know how to fight at sea. Moreover, the commanders in the army were all older and more experienced than him. The son and brother who are related.

Mu Zheng didn't dare to show his timidity in front of these people, so he could only bury his head among the military classics, ask old officials, and study geography.On the other hand, write a secret book and pass it to the capital, asking the capital to bring weapons.But the most important thing is how to train his army.Fortunately, with Ding Ru's guidance, and Mu Zheng himself trained with the soldiers, took the lead in everything, never complained about suffering or tiredness, and gradually made people who had prejudice against him agree with him.

When everything was on the right track, they received the news from the scouts that the Japanese pirates attacked on a large scale and had already landed in Qinyu Fort in Funing Prefecture. The prefect of Funing Prefecture requested to send troops to support them.Mu Zheng immediately decided to send troops to Fu'an and Ningde counties, but was stopped by Ding Ru.

According to Ding Ru's meaning, although the Japanese pirates came, they were extremely powerful. Compared with our navy in Fujian, it was a little weak, and it took several times its strength to resist the Japanese pirates. Therefore, few people were sent. If it doesn't work, it won't work, but if there are too many people sent, it will weaken the strength of the Fuzhou government. It would be bad if the Japanese pirates took the opportunity to capture the Fuzhou government. The soldiers and horses mastered by the family are not small.

Mu Zheng said angrily: "Then let the Japanese pirates burn, kill and plunder Funing? What if they capture Funing and take the opportunity to come to Fuzhou, what should they do? Their lips are dead and their teeth are cold."

Ding Ru didn't raise his eyelids and said, "Those Japanese pirates just went back to grab some things in the winter. Even if they come to Fuzhou, they are not afraid. First, we have time to prepare, and second, the soldiers, horses, food and grass will be concentrated."

Mu Zheng said: "Sir, it's easy to say, just grab some things. You used to live in Fujian, so naturally you know that the Japanese pirates have committed countless crimes. Wherever they go, it's like a leech crossing the border. People and things are gone." Mu Zheng's eyes revealed Perseverance: "Even if I put myself in a trap, I can't ignore the suffering of the people."

Only then did Ding Ru look up at Mu Zheng and said, "Duke Xiaoguo thinks that he has the world in mind and is full of pride, but in the eyes of the old man, he is a rotten fool who doesn't know how to adapt, make choices, and judge the situation."

Mu Zheng has never been scolded like this before, he tensed his face, Ding Ru looked at his stubborn appearance and said: "I have lived to this age, and I only know that what I have to get is what I get, especially you, the little prince, as an army The commander should know this even more, what you have to learn is not to care about the gains and losses, but to take the overall situation into consideration."

Mu Zheng was a little loose, and Ding Ru persuaded: "You are the commander and the core of the army. If something happens to you, the army is like loose sand. Who will command this army? This army will kill people like this up and down. ?”

Mu Zheng said: "But this is just my husband's guess..."

"Xiao Guogong wants to say what if the Japanese pirates don't come, what if the Mu family doesn't rebel? But if it were you, would you choose to take advantage of the situation and don't put your chance and life on the other side's kindness."

Mu Zheng sat slumped on the chair, staring at the map, Ding Ru sighed, the older he got, the easier it was to soften his heart, he said: "If the Duke really can't get over this hurdle in his heart, why don't you send a A small force will pass, and the rest will be left to fate."

……

Mu Zhengku sat for the whole night, but on the second day he reluctantly chose not to resist. After the order was issued, he became more silent and the training became more stringent. Ding Ru knew that he was holding his breath in his heart, so he didn't stop him He, but the members of the Mu family couldn't do it anymore. The people in the second room could be regarded as Mu Zheng's second uncle who actually wrote a letter to impeach Mu Zheng. After gaining the military power, he shrank his head and did not come out. He supported the soldiers with self-respect, and sat back and watched the Japanese riots.

Mu Zheng is naturally not worried about the impeachment papers. Although the papers have sinister intentions, because according to Mu Zheng's mind, he wants to accumulate strength, but he must wait for a period of time. If Zheng wins, people will also slander him for colluding with Japanese pirates in order to save his life.It's a pity that this booklet doesn't work for today.

Although he was relieved of Mu Zheng today, he also asked Jin Yiwei to monitor and protect Mu Zheng.

Mu Zheng was dormant in Fujian, but Lin Yang was put on the top of the limelight.

Because when he was still recuperating in the other palace, rumors that Lin Yang was the blood of the prince Xiaomin became turbulent in the capital, and even spread to the other palace. Unlike the last time the rumor was that Lin Yang was jealous and slandered, this time he had to do it for real. Shi Linyang's identity, King Heng, who is in charge of the Zong Ling, specially came to the other palace to meet Jinshang because of this matter.

Jinshang knew that he was furious, the last time it was also a rumor against Lin Yang, and it was found out that it was King Ke's instigation. At that time, he released the rumors probably to test or prove Lin Yang's identity. King Ke followed Jinshang in the early years, More or less sensed that Lin Yang's identity was strange, so he used an absurd rumor to test it out. If the emperor still protected Lin Yang, then Lin Yang's identity could almost be verified.

This ten out of ten may be enough to make the Supreme Emperor want to kill Lin Yang, even if the Supreme Emperor does not kill Lin Yang, but recognizes Lin Yang back according to the emperor's attitude, the emperor misses his relationship with the former prince, but as time goes by, This affection will always fade away. Even if the emperor didn't suspect Lin Yang, the son and grandson, when he was in power, the current heirs would be afraid of Lin Yang.

So the people left behind by King Ke released Lin Yang's life experience. The emperor didn't think of King Ke's Jiuqu thoughts at all at this time.The emperor had already reprimanded Shen Lu before, but now because of the dispute with the Supreme Emperor, the emperor was holding his breath in his heart, and he happened to vent his anger on Shen Lu, instead of lightly relieving Shen Lu, let someone scold him.

After Shen Lv was beaten, he limped to plead guilty with a pale face, the emperor's anger subsided a little and said: "You are in charge of the Jinyiwei, which should be the place with the most information, but you are so incompetent, you are so helpless. into such a passive place."

Shen Lu bowed his head to admit his mistake, and whispered: "Excuse me, I don't think there is any disadvantage in this matter. Lin Yang is of royal blood. It's a pity that the villain is in power and has been living outside. Now this matter is just an opportunity. Restore Lin Yang's blood and background."

The emperor was silent. Thinking about it, now is indeed the most suitable time to mention Lin Yang's life experience. If the Supreme Emperor loses power and King Ke is beheaded, King Heng will not object.Shen Lu lowered his head and waited for the emperor's order, only to hear the emperor say: "I see, you go back first."

Shen Lu bowed his head and said yes, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.

After Shen Lv left, the emperor ordered Dai Quan to go to Lin Yang's side, so that Lin Yang could prepare himself.

Lin Yang sent Dai Quan away with a smile, but his heart was in a mess. The fact that he didn't want to face finally appeared in front of him.From Dai Quan's words, it is not difficult to detect the determination of the emperor's mind, he must take this opportunity to recognize Lin Yang, and only wait for the return to the palace to invent the decree.

There is not much time left for Lin Yang. Lin Yang is walking around the room like a headless fly. Who can persuade the emperor to change his mind? The queen is far away in the capital, and the rest are not enough, and A Taishanghuang, but the Taishanghuang is old and may not be willing to protect himself. When the time comes, the Taishanghuang kills himself because of this, and the loss outweighs the gain.

Just as Lin Yang was scratching his head, Sanqi hurriedly sent a letter, saying that it was sent by someone from Lin Hai. Lin Yang looked at the property name, and it turned out to be Princess Wancheng.

The letter from the Princess Wancheng is very simple, telling the story that the prince is in charge of the country.Yizhong instigated rebellion against the emperor's cronies. It was falsely reported that Yizhong rebelled and held the emperor hostage.At that time, the concubine had already gone, and the princess of Wancheng was his fiancée. In order to preserve the blood of the prince, the queen mother asked the princess of Wancheng to go to the place where the prince was under house arrest late at night and became pregnant with Lin Yang.Later, the prince died, and he chose to take the path that was most unfavorable to him just for the sake of his father-son relationship, but the emperor didn't believe him and committed suicide to prove his innocence.

Lin Yang was shocked when he saw it. Not only he but also others thought that the first prince was killed by the Supreme Emperor, but he didn't expect that he chose to commit suicide.What also makes Lin Yang feel uneasy is that Lin Hai's move is to reveal Lin Yang's life experience, and put the right to choose in Lin Yang's hands.

Lin Yang suddenly thought that Jia Min had given him private money for no reason that year. At that time, they were probably ready to restore Lin Yang's identity. After all, as the eldest son of the Lin family, he didn't need private money and was recognized back. Only the posthumous son of the first prince needs a private house.

Lin Yang made up his mind to take the risk to meet the Supreme Emperor, just because the Supreme Emperor did not kill the crown prince and would still meet him. Instead of waiting for the execution of fate, it is better to take a risk.

Lin Yang did not ask to see the Supreme Emperor without telling the emperor, and when Lin Yang was unexpected, the Supreme Emperor met him soon, as if he had been preparing for a long time and waited for Lin Yang's arrival.Lin Yang knelt down obediently to pay his respects, and the moment the Supreme Emperor saw him, surprise and nostalgia burst into his eyes.

The Supreme Emperor couldn't help sighing and said: "You really look like a person." At this point, Lin Yang said bluntly: "Like Queen Zhaohui?" The Supreme Emperor smiled lightly: "It's not Queen Zhaohui, it's yours. grandmother."

Lin Yang's heart sank, he only guessed that the Supreme Emperor would not kill him, but he did not expect that the Supreme Emperor wanted to recognize him.

The Supreme Emperor asked with great interest: "Why, don't you want to?"
