Two soldiers helped Miss Yun out of the cabin. When they walked past Xiao Qin, Xiao Qin stretched out his hand to untie her acupuncture points.
Xiao Qin looked at Miss Yun, a complicated look flashed in her eyes, as if there was a glimmer of water, she hesitated to speak, but finally nodded and smiled.
"Yun'er, I'm sorry for you. When you find a good home in the future, stop thinking about the unhappy things in the past and live a good life."
This affectionate confession, coupled with his magnificent beauty, can really make women all over the world bow. It's a pity that Miss Yun only glanced at him.
"If Xiao Wuji wasn't standing next to you right now, I might still be a little sad.
I exchanged my life for yours, I don't owe you anything anymore. But what you owe me has still not been repaid and will never be repaid.
But don’t worry, I won’t let you pay it back, and I don’t want to see you again in the future!
As you said, I have a good home. I didn't have the qualifications or ability to love the people who love me before, but now that I have, I will never let go again. "
Miss Yun stepped onto the bow of Mao Haifeng's boat, stood next to Mao Haifeng, and looked at Mao Haifeng tenderly. Like a cloud that has been drifting in the wind for a long time, it finally stops on the mountain peak.
Mao Haifeng was extremely excited, but he couldn't express it in front of many people, so he just took Miss Yun's hand and whispered.
"This is all thanks to Mr. Xiao. He helped me test my words so I could find you!"
Miss Yun's eyes were looking at the boat facing each other far away. Xiao Feng was standing on the bow, his white robe fluttering in the sea breeze, smiling as if it was yesterday.
That was the way he walked into Chunyan Tower for the first time, and that was the way he stood downstairs and looked up at himself.
That was the way he talked to himself when he was tracking down the emissary, and that was the way he was open-minded when he let him go in the Mule and Horse Alley.
Miss Yun lowered her head and held Mao Haifeng's hand tightly.
She knows that the best in the world will never belong to her; and what belongs to her is the best in the world.
Xiao Feng waved: "Xiao Wuji, let someone tie you up! Then you come to my side. Once you get on the boat, your master can leave."
Xiao Wuji snorted coldly and let the soldiers tie him up. He strode onto the lowered springboard and stepped onto Xiao Feng's boat step by step. He stood with his hands behind his back, his beard and hair flying, very Xu Jinjiang.
Xiao Feng waved his hand: "Get out of the way and let the boat go. Brother Qin, remember, I am a man of my word. Next time you trade with me, don't be so mother-in-law!"
Although Xiao Qin already believed that Xiao Feng was a man of his word, he was still in a daze when the patrol boat gave way and the cargo ship rushed out of the encirclement.
Is this kid really this kind of person?
It is true that he has some womanly kindness, but I always feel that he is not such a pedantic person? Otherwise, how could he possibly defeat Yan Shifan?
It wasn't until the boat was far away that Xiao Qin suddenly realized: "That's it! This kid is playing Huarong Dao!"
The dead man who escaped from death was puzzled: "Mr. Xiao Qin, what is Huarong Road?"
Xiao Qin sneered: "Everyone in the world thinks that sending Guan Yu to guard Huarong Road was Zhuge Liang's biggest failure. If Zhang Fei and Guan Yu were exchanged, Cao Cao would be dead.
But they didn't know that Liu Bei was too weak at the time. If he really killed Cao Cao, Soochow would kill Liu Bei and take back Jingzhou. "
The dead man blinked: "Sir, are you saying that Xiao Feng let you go on purpose to support the bandits' self-respect?"
Xiao Qin frowned, why is this word so awkward to use on herself? But he had no better words to use, so he pinched his nose and nodded.
"What did Xiao Feng rely on to get started? If he only relied on measuring calligraphy and deceiving the emperor to practice Taoism, then he would be the second Tao Zhongwen at most.
But what is he now? Listen to his long list of titles! He now holds power in both the government and the public, relying on his great military exploits to fight for the Ming Dynasty!
Reject the Mongolian cavalry in the north, pacify the Japanese pirates in the south, reclaim the land of Guandong, establish a school to destroy the Gu Miao territory, and disintegrate the White Lotus Holy Sect!
It is these that established his current position in the Ming court! This established his powerful position!
Now these things have calmed down. I heard that Xu Jie, the chief minister of the cabinet, has been thinking of ways to reduce Xiao Feng's influence. If Xiao Feng lets me go, he will let go of a flame!
As long as I am here, Ming Dynasty will not be really safe, and Xiao Feng will always be able to hold power and suppress those scholars who want to mess with him! "
At this time, Xiao Wuji stood on the bow of the boat, glaring at Xiao Feng. Seeing that Xiao Qin's boat had gone away, he sneered.
"If you want to kill or chop him into pieces, come quickly and give me pleasure. I heard that Wu Wu also died in your hands, so I thought he deserved his death."
Xiao Feng shook his head: "I won't kill you yet, so you don't have to commit suicide. Just wait patiently. Maybe Xiao Qin's conscience will find out and she can come back to save you."
Xiao Wuji was stunned: "If you don't kill me, why are you keeping me?"
Xiao Feng nodded: "On a national tour, you are now a popular idol, a third-level superstar, and a character in a song. You have to make a show to be convincing."
That night, Mao Haifeng begged Wang Zhi to ask Mr. Xiao to be a matchmaker. Wang Zhi was angry and funny, feeling that his son had no idea.
"Do you really think Mr. Xiao is addicted to being a matchmaker? He acted as a matchmaker for Gu Yuer and Ke Zifan. Firstly, they are blood relatives, and secondly, they represent the imperial court to care for Miao territory.
What kind of onion are you? Don't talk about you. Even if I become a father... of course it's impossible. In short, don't think about it.
I know what you are thinking. You feel that Miss Yun is following you because you are afraid of wronging her, so you want her to marry in the most honorable way. But everything must be done in moderation!
Well, let's show off my old face to my father and ask Governor Hu to be a matchmaker. This is already a great honor, and Miss Yun will definitely be satisfied. "
Mao Haifeng thought about it and nodded in agreement. Then he expressed his doubts to Wang Zhi.
"Father, Mr. Xiao had already rescued Miss Yun, and Xiao Wuji had been caught. Why didn't he take the opportunity to kill Xiao Qin?
Although Mr. Xiao is true to his word, Xiao Qin is the leader of the White Lotus Rebellion after all. Is it too pedantic to be trustworthy with such a person? No, is it too benevolent? "
Wang Zhi pondered for a moment: "Haifeng, remember, never say this again in the future.
Mr. Xiao has a deep scheming mind that I have never seen before in my life. What he does cannot be explained by words such as pedantry or benevolence.
It is not easy to keep this matter secret. After all, there are hundreds of people on the six boats. Maybe the news has already spread. But what others say is other people's business, but you can't say it anymore.
Based on my knowledge, I can only think of "nurturing the bandits to respect themselves". I expected that Hu Zongxian would also think so, let alone the people in the court.
From what I know about Mr. Xiao, he is by no means a self-respecting person who supports bandits.
If he wants to tell us what the profound meaning is, he will tell us. If he doesn't want to, we don't need to ask! "
At this time in the Governor's Mansion, Hu Zongxian looked at Xiao Feng who was exchanging cups with Yu Dayou. He endured it again and again, and finally plucked up the courage to speak.
"Brother Xiao, if you let Xiao Qin go this time, there will definitely be people in the court who are dissatisfied. Even if they don't dare to impeach you openly, they will definitely talk about your self-respect for raising bandits.
I thought that in order to save a girl Yun and win Mao Haifeng's heart, this matter... would be too costly.
If Brother Xiao doesn't want to break his promise, I'll take action! The sea journey to Japan is far away. If we send our fastest ship, we may not be able to catch up with Xiao Qin! "
Xiao Feng put down his wine glass and looked at Hu Zongxian with a smile: "Actually, you guessed it right. I am indeed 'raising bandits,' but not for 'self-respect.'"
As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned. In the silence, an indistinct roar and scream came from the night sky.
"Bitch, you two bitches, I shouldn't have spared your lives in the first place! Ah, bitch!"
Everyone was startled, Yu Dayou stood up abruptly, Xiao Feng grabbed him, smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Don't be nervous, it's your second wife and Miss Yun. They came to me in the afternoon and said they wanted to visit Xiao Wuji in prison.
I asked the two of them to promise not to hurt Xiao Wuji's life and not to ruin Xiao Wuji's face. I also expected him to go on tour and prove it to the women of the White Lotus Sect.
Don't worry, Xiao Wuji is wearing iron shackles and has a ball gag in his mouth. He can't bite his tongue, hit his head, run away, or die. "
Everyone was puzzled: "What does it mean to put a ball in your mouth? Isn't it because you are afraid of someone biting your tongue and killing yourself? Isn't it just knocking out the teeth?"
Xiao Feng shook his head: "It's too barbaric. Knocking out the teeth will cause infection, which can easily kill people. It would be more civilized to put a ball in the mouth. I drew the pattern for Miss Yun to do it."
No one knew what this thing looked like. At this time, the painting girl ran in from outside with a pale face and poured herself a glass of wine first.
"That's too cruel! General Yu, your wife is just fine, she's not easy to mess with.
Yun'er looked gentle and gentle when she was in Chunyan Tower, but she was ruthless enough. "
Xiao Feng smiled: "You can't die, right?"
The painting girl nodded: "I'm sure I won't die. I'm only greeting you with my fingers and toes.
But it looked really painful. I think if it hadn't been for the ball in his mouth, Xiao Wuji would have bitten his tongue and committed suicide. "
At this point, the painting girl suddenly blushed, glanced at Hu Zongxian ambiguously, whispered a few words into his ear, and turned back to the inner hall.
Hu Zongxian blushed, coughed twice, pretended as if nothing had happened, and continued to ask Xiao Feng curiously.
"Brother Xiao's words are unpredictable and profound. Can you explain a few things clearly?"
Xiao Feng poured a glass of wine and looked at Xu Wei: "Mr. Xu Wei, a genius in the world, do you know what I mean?"
Xu Wei drank a glass of wine, pondered for a moment, and suddenly slammed the table.
"Raising bandits without respecting yourself, sir, are you just trying to drive away tigers and devour wolves?"
Hu Zongxian was stunned: "Brother Xu's intention is to let Xiao Qin, a tiger, eat the Japanese wolves? Can Xiao Qin do it?"
Xu Wei nodded repeatedly: "Xiao Qin is not an incompetent person. Before Lord Xiao entered the court, he made arrangements everywhere, waiting for the opportunity to cause trouble.
If Lord Xiao had not eradicated the White Lotus Sect, defeated Yan Shifan, and calmed down several hidden dangers in the surrounding areas in the past two years, the Ming Dynasty would have been more chaotic than that.
This person went to Japan and had Yan Shifan's money as his foundation. The Japanese are profit-seeking, cruel and ill-informed, so it is possible for them to unify Japan. "
Hu Zongxian nodded hesitantly: "But if that's true, after Xiao Qin unified Japan, he would definitely counterattack the Ming Dynasty. Will driving tigers and devouring wolves turn into raising tigers?"
Xiao Feng smiled: "Japan is too far away from the Ming Dynasty. The Ming Dynasty Navy has not yet taken shape, and if it goes to the opponent's home court, it will suffer heavy losses in a fight.
Therefore, we cannot take action against Japan in a short period of time. But the hungry wolf in Japan will never have enough to eat.
There is another way to completely eliminate this hidden danger beside the bed.
The Japanese island cannot be sunk, but the population of Japanese pirates is limited. The people who come to Ming Dynasty now are all defeated soldiers from various battles. They can't kill all of them but only a few.
If they wait for Japan to unify itself, they will not dare to attack the Ming Dynasty for a while.
When they dare to attack, it will probably be hundreds of years later. It is hard to say how powerful Japan will become by then.
But if Xiao Qin unified Japan, he would definitely attack the Ming Dynasty impatiently. There is no way, he is just so confident and obsessed.
At that time, we will eliminate the main force of the Japanese pirates in one fell swoop on our home court, and then set sail to take down Japan, which has been hollowed out. "
Everyone was silent, all frightened by Xiao Feng's evil plan. It took a long time before Xu Wei drank a glass of wine.
"Sir, the Japanese pirates are certainly hateful, but they are just some of Japan's defeated samurai and ronin. From what Wang Zhi said, they don't mean anything by Japan.
For thousands of years, Japan has always been in awe of China (the word "China" came into existence three thousand years ago, so there is no need to make a mistake).
Moreover, Japan is far away from China's waters. Even if the Ming Dynasty included it in its territory, transportation would be poor and travel would be expensive, and it would seem to be of little use.
I don’t know why you hate Japan so much that you don’t hesitate to taint yourself and let Xiao Qin go in the name of supporting the invaders, just to destroy Japan in the future? "
Xiao Feng was silent for a long time, so that everyone felt that Xu Wei might have said the wrong thing, and they all looked at Xu Wei nervously, and Xu Wei was also pounding in his heart.
"It's hard for you to understand why I want to destroy Japan. This is written in the heavenly book I read in my dream.
Don't look down on the Japanese. Compared with the disasters caused by the Japanese, the thousands of years of fighting and fighting in this land can be laughed off.
If Japan is not destroyed, it will become a serious problem for China! "
Xiao Feng acted like a hooligan and brought out the Immortal Dream and the Heavenly Book. This truth immediately blocked everyone's mouths and they could only nod in agreement.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit heavy, Xiao Feng raised his glass and smiled.
"Besides, if I drive this tiger away, it will swallow more than just a wolf. Although destroying Japan is the main goal, Japan also has its uses. You will know when the time comes."
Everyone was so smart that they didn't dare to ask any more questions. They knew that Xiao Feng was willing to say so much to them, and he completely regarded them as his own.
But there are some things that must be hidden in the heart. Even if it is one of our own, we cannot say that this is the city. Everyone understands.
Xiao Feng stretched out: "I'm sleepy, so I went to sleep. By the way, Lao Hu, you should take it easy at night.
He is old and has never practiced martial arts, so he is no match for Mao Haifeng and Yu Dayou. "
No one understood what he meant. Yu Dayou scratched his head and looked at Xiao Feng in confusion.
Only Hu Zongxian's face was red, he sent Xiao Feng and others away with a haha, and couldn't wait to run into the back hall.
The lighting in the bedroom was very dim and ambiguous. The painting girl held a small ball in her hand and smiled brightly at Hu Zongxian.
"Yun'er made four in total and bitten one for Xiao Wuji. Rouge Bao and Yun'er and I each kept one. Can I bite it for you to see?"
Hu Zongxian nodded repeatedly. The painting girl bit the ball gently, put her hands behind her back, and looked at him sadly.
Hu Zongxian's breathing suddenly became heavy, and Xiao Feng's warning to him to take it easy was thrown out of the sky together with his coat and underwear.
As expected, Xiao Feng did not act as a matchmaker for Mao Haifeng, but asked Hu Zongxian to be a matchmaker. But when worshiping heaven and earth, Miss Yun was a little embarrassed because she didn't have her parents in the hall.
The ancients believed that the more perfect the ceremony of worshiping heaven and earth, the better. Every aspect should not be sloppy, as it will affect the happiness of the couple throughout their lives in the future.
I remember that when Xiao Feng got married, although he had no parents, he at least had the Xiuchun Dao left by Xiao Wannian to make a cameo appearance.
But Miss Yun had been wandering for many years, and Bai Lian was rebellious. Even if her relatives were not dead, they had already lost contact with her, and they didn't even have any relics.
Miss Yun didn't care much, but Mao Haifeng always felt that the ceremony was not perfect. He also lost his parents, but he had a foster father after all, but Miss Yun had nothing. She must be very sad.
Seeing Mao Haifeng's embarrassment, Xiao Feng said with a smile: "What's the problem? There are many highly respected people in the hall. If Miss Yun likes anyone, you might as well consider him as your adoptive father."
When everyone saw Xiao Feng's words, they all thought it was very reasonable, and couldn't help but turn their attention to the candidate who seemed to have the potential to be a godfather.
For example, Hu Zongxian, Xu Wei, and even Xu Hai are also qualified.
Miss Yun shook her head: "This is not good. Although I have abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, after all, I used to be a member of the White Lotus Sect, and my status is low. People are not willing to accept anyone as my foster father. It is a low status."
Xiao Feng smiled and said: "Don't worry about this. The imperial court has pardoned the White Lotus Sect. You have no blood debt on your body and you are free. No one would have such thoughts."
Everyone knew that Xiao Feng had contributed a lot to this marriage. Being able to be Miss Yun's godfather not only gave Mao Haifeng and Wang Zhi face, but also pleased Xiao Feng. Who would disagree? They all nodded at the moment.
Mao Haifeng also whispered to Miss Yun, but Miss Yun looked at everyone timidly: "Do I really want to accept whoever I want to be my adoptive father, and everyone will not dislike me?"
Everyone nodded again and again to express their confirmation. Girl, you dare to recognize your godfather. If you recognize your godfather, don't look back.
Miss Yun walked up to Xiao Feng with a smile and bowed down Yingying.
"Yun'er is willing to worship Master Xiao as his adoptive father. Please don't dislike me, Master Xiao."
The entire hall was silent, and Xiao Feng and his friends were stunned. What's going on?
It would be so... so interesting to see a bunch of guys with wrinkled faces and beards asking for a pretty boy to be their godfather!
Everyone burst into laughter and expressed that they recognized this adoptive father very well. Xiao Feng waved his hands repeatedly, indicating that this matter was inappropriate.
Miss Yun bit her lip, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Master Xiao, I know that it would be fine if I were an ordinary person, but those present are all important officials of the court. Being my adoptive father will affect my future.
If adults are like this, how can I bear to embarrass others? They didn't dare not agree because of the face of the adults, but they disliked me in their hearts. Wouldn't it be even more painful? "
Xiao Feng looked at Miss Yun kneeling on the ground and smelled the familiar fragrance of tea lingering around him.
He suddenly understood that he must be worthy of his adopted father today.
