The troubled times in Fuso are over.
General Toyotomi established the shogunate and ordered Fuso with the rank of general to conquer barbarians. As the situation in Fuso stabilized, fewer and fewer people fled to sea to become pirates.
The Liaodong Navy would also attack pirates from time to time.
The sea is relatively safe at the moment.
Besides, even when piracy was at its most rampant. [Mutsuchi Daimyo] The banner of the Kyogoku family is also very easy to use. There were very few pirates who would attack Kyogoku's house without any foresight.
And now.
Something big must have happened.
The businessmen present smelled a strange smell almost at the same time. Who can move freely on the sea, which one is not a human spirit?
Their intuition is often accurate.
As these dozens of ships docked. The richly dressed Fuso nobles got off the boat.
Most of these Fuso nobles were in shock. Afterwards came down a large number of Fuso warriors.
Immediately, these Fuso nobles were surrounded by Fuso warriors.
Not long after, the government officials responsible for maintaining order in the port got the news and came to negotiate with the Kyogoku family. The two sides talked for a while.
The yamen servants did not dare to neglect and led the way ahead. Lead the Fuso people to Jinghai County.
Not all the Fuso people got off the ship. Many Fuso warriors and sailors stayed on the ship, cleaning up the blood stains and repairing the warship.
After the Fuso nobles left, the port became noisy.
"This is after a bloody battle. Those Fuso nobles should be the head of the Kyogoku family. There may also be family governors. This is an escape for the whole family. The only one in Fuso who can do such a thing now is General Toyotomi, right?"
"It's not necessarily the Toyotomi family, there are some powerful big names who can do this kind of thing. But no matter what, the Kyogoku family is definitely doomed."
"No matter who is dealing with the Toyotomi family, it is normal. The direct daughter of the Toyotomi family established a navy of ten thousand households in Liaodong with Ryukyu people as the main body. And Ryukyu is now called Okinawa, no matter Toyotomi Neither the family nor the daimyo currently in charge of Okinawa will give up this piece of fat. The collusion between the Kyogoku family and the Ryukyu people is a very dangerous thing in itself."
"Let's ignore Fuso's messy things. Before that, the Kyogoku family had a deep entanglement with the Fuhan General's Mansion. They can do a lot of business that ordinary businessmen can't. Now the Kyogoku family has become like this, and they are no longer a family. Domination. Then don’t we, ordinary businessmen, have an opportunity?"
"That's right. The Kyogoku family has such a huge business among Fuso, Chu, Liaodong, and Goguryeo. Now that this big tree has fallen, we can definitely get a share of the pie."
The merchants in the port each have their own ideas. Many businessmen showed greedy expressions. They looked at the Kyogoku family's warship as if it were a piece of fat meat and wanted to pounce on it and bite it immediately.
Get a piece of the pie.
The Kyogoku family is extremely powerful on the road of maritime trade. When it is powerful, everyone is naturally in awe of it.
But when it fell into the mortal world, it was not much different from the defeated dog on the roadside.
This incident quickly alarmed Lu Sheng, the prefect of Guangchuan.
This time the Kyogoku family landed in Liaodong's population. Although they purchased many properties in Liaodong, they could not accommodate so many people at one time.
Lu Sheng successfully settled the members of the Kyogoku family.
the other side. He sent someone to escort the people who came to Jingji's house to Jiang County.
This matter was a big one and he couldn't make the decision.
...........
Jiang County.
As the seat of the small court of General Fu Han's Mansion. It is actually the capital of the country "Yan".
As Wu Nian's power grew, it naturally became more and more prosperous.
For example, this time Wu Nian pacified Guangyang Mansion. Some wealthy and powerful local tycoons in Guangyang Mansion discussed with the government and sent their children to the Imperial College and Sunzi Prison to study.
These didn't come alone, they brought some slaves. And money.
Jiang County naturally prospered accordingly.
There are also specialties from Guangyang Prefecture, such as wild ginseng, pearls, etc.
The prosperity of this city has far exceeded that of the generals of Liaodong.
Fu Han General's Mansion. backyard.
The ladies sat together in a group to bask in the sun, surrounded by nannies, maids, and young men and young ladies running around.
It has been almost a year since Wu Nian left for this expedition. His third son Wu Ting, fourth son Wu Yong, and fifth son Wu Shuang are all five years old.
They are only two years apart from their second brother Wu Yu, eldest sister Wu Wuyang, and second sister Wu Huazhuang. The six of them are at a lively and active age, and the backyard is often bustled with excitement because of them.
"Ruyan. Guangyang Mansion has been pacified. But why hasn't brother come back yet?" Liu Xiang turned around and asked Wang Ruyan.
They look forward to the stars and the moon all day long, hoping that the war will end soon. Wu Nianhao came home and reunited his family.
The war has been over for several months now, but Wu Nian hasn't come back yet.
Thinking of this, Liu Xiang pouted.
"Maybe there's something else going on." Wang Ruyan shook his head, and then sighed.
"Hey." Mrs. Chen also sighed. For a while, sighs and sighs could be heard one after another in the backyard.
Woman. There are really not many people who think about the career of being a king. They hoped that Wu Nian would come back safely and stay longer.
Unfortunately.
This wish is not easy to come true.
but.
Liu Xiang raised her head and looked at the little carrots running around, with a happy smile on her face.
Although brother is not at home.
But looking at these little carrot heads growing up safely and healthily can somewhat ease the feeling of missing them.

forecourt.
As the territory increased, so did the number of officials needed. The huge Fuhan General's Mansion was also a little crowded.
Inside Liu Zhixing's office.
Liu Zhixing felt his back was a little sore, so he told the official next to him, got up and left the office, and went to the tea room next to him to drink tea.
There were many officials drinking tea in the tea room, talking to each other. Seeing Liu Zhixing coming in, they all lowered their voices.
Suddenly, an official broke in from outside. After looking around, he walked towards Liu Zhixing.
"Sir, Kitahara Sosuke, a retainer of the Kyogoku family, would like to see you."
Liu Zhixing looked at the half cup of tea left in his hand, then looked up at the official's face and asked, "Is it urgent?"
"It seems very urgent." The official nodded.
Liu Zhixing immediately put down the tea cup and walked out of the tea room, followed the corridor and entered a room.
Liu Zhixing and Kitahara Sosuke were very familiar with each other. He nodded gently towards each other and went straight to the main seat to sit down. Kithara Sosuke didn't say anything nonsense. He stood up and bowed and said, "Nagashi-sama. The Toyotomi family has destroyed the Kyogoku family."
"What did you say?" Liu Zhixing couldn't help but look up at Kithara Sosuke in astonishment.
Kitahara Sosuke took a deep breath, bent down again and said, "Nagashi-sama. The Kyogoku family was wiped out by the Toyotomi family."
Liu Zhixing heard clearly this time and couldn't help but fell silent.
