There are always endless words to say and endless poems to write under the moonlight. People who love each other always feel that time flies by when they are together. Unknowingly, a hint of fish belly white appears at the intersection of the sea and the sky in the distance. Unknown seabirds appeared in the only light, like shadow puppets, very smart and cute.
Unknowingly, the two of them had been staying at the beach for half the night, and the greedy birds had come out to look for food. There was no fatigue in her beautiful face. Zhang Jingjun stood up from Wang Busui's arms and stretched. Although he was reluctant to give up, he was still alive. In addition to love, there are other things, and everyone will not live just for love. "Brother Immortal, it's almost dawn, and I have to go back,"
Reluctant to look away from Zhang Jingjun's proud body, Wang Busheng was also reluctant to let go, "Well, let's go back. Grandpa found out and will inevitably nag him."
Wang Busheng, who was celebrating the Chinese New Year, didn't want Zhang Luzi to show up in front of his house with a big knife. After all, the country is helpless when the elderly commit crimes. Moreover, Wang Busheng didn't want to ruin the reunion day because of himself.
His eyes were on Wang Busheng for a long time and he didn't want to leave. "My family is very busy during the New Year. I don't know when we can meet again."
After rubbing Zhang Jingjun's flawless face, Wang Bushit kissed him and said, "Fool, it's not a separation of life and death. We can't see each other these days, so we can contact him by phone."
Making a phone call gesture with his hand, Wang Bushu pointed to the sea in the distance, "Even if you are on the other side of the sea, just make a phone call and it may take some time, but I will definitely appear in front of you."
"Well," Zhang Jingjun winked playfully, "Although the phone bill is expensive, our love is even more expensive."
However, a few seconds passed without seeing Wang Bushit answering her words, so Zhang Jingjun looked up and saw Wang Bushit looking forward, his eyes not leaving for a long time, not knowing what was going on. Zhang Jingjun looked in the direction Wang Bushit was looking, and saw only the sea and the sky in the distance. Black spots appeared one after another in the connecting places. After a short time, the black spots gradually became larger.
Zhang Jingjun was a little confused, "It's strange, whose ship came back from the sea in such a cold winter."
Although the Zhang family does not have merchant ships that go to sea, the town is owned by the public, so Zhang Jingjun also knows a little about overseas business.
If it hadn't been for the rising sun, Wang BuShu wouldn't have discovered these returning ships on this still-not-very-bright morning. He knew very little about the maritime trade of the Ming Empire, and only read about it in novels from his previous life. I have seen that the result of seclusion is that the number of people who often go to sea privately will only increase. Although the two Ming Dynasties are somewhat different, because of the people in power, the Ming Empire is superior in maritime trade issues.
“Do you still have to take time to do business overseas?” I remember that in my previous life, ocean trade could be done anytime and anywhere.
It changes with time, and there are reasons why the sea was banned in the Ming Dynasty. It is said that Zhu Yuanzhang established the Ming Dynasty. When the country was first established, the foundation was not solid, and the four seas had not yet surrendered. There were still some remnants of separatist forces such as Fang Guozhen and Zhang Shicheng still living in the corner of the sea. People's houses are robbed of goods and property, and in coastal areas, "no matter how old you are, you will not be harmed by it." In addition, the pirates along the coast launched attacks at the same time, destroying farmers, merchants, and maritime merchants. Many of them entered the sea as pirates. In the tenth year of Hongwu, Hu Weiyong secretly colluded with the Japanese pirates and planned to commit rebellion. All these pose threats to the new Ming regime. Therefore, Zhu Yuanzhang said with fear: "The sea can connect foreign countries, so we try to ban their exchanges."
However, by the Jiajing period, the sea ban had become ineffective. It was not until the rebellious period that the sea ban was tightened again. The reason was that the rebellious bureaucrats wanted to do exclusive business. If the sea ban was relaxed, everyone would be eligible to go to the sea. How could they still do it? He could earn money happily, and the reason why the Ming Empire continued to implement this maritime ban policy that was beneficial and harmless was because Zhu Xiluo felt that he was a descendant of Lao Zhu, so he naturally wanted to learn from Lao Zhu, Taizu The Gao Emperor implemented a sea ban, and naturally he also had to implement it, including the farming system for soldiers. The farming system was generally good, but what Zhu Xiluo did not expect was that the farming system of the Ming Empire collapsed hundreds of years earlier than the previous Ming Dynasty. Basically, things changed as soon as it was implemented. The difference is that the land is not in the hands of the military generals, but in the hands of the local parents.
Because of the huge overseas interests, the current maritime ban of the Ming Empire is in name only. However, due to strength, there are still only a few people who are able to do business overseas. And because piracy is rampant, many maritime merchants will choose to go to sea together for safety reasons.
"Brother Immortal doesn't know. Because the power of sea-going ships mostly uses wind power, spring and autumn are the peak periods for trade every day. In seasons like winter, few businessmen choose to go to sea for business. Moreover, our Ming Empire views the Chinese New Year on It's very heavy, and the merchant ships have already returned."
"Now that all the Ming Empire's ships are back, whose ships belong to them?" Wang Busui was a little confused.
While Wang Busheng was talking to Zhang Jingjun, the ships in the distance became clearer and clearer. They saw the fleet of ships arranged in a pointed shape, heading towards the coast.
"Brother Immortal, something seems wrong." Zhang Jingjun looked at the approaching fleet, "The ships are moving so fast, there should be no cargo on board, and my merchants from the Ming Empire rarely come back with empty ships."
"No, it's pirates." Wang Busheng finally remembered what he had reminded coldly yesterday. The Japanese pirates attacked six guard posts along our coast: Jinghaiwei, Chengshanwei, Weihaiwei, Lingshanwei, Aoshanwei, and Zhenhaiwei. There were numerous casualties among officials and civilians. .
"Go and warn Zhang Jingjun." Without waiting for Zhang Jingjun's response, Wang Busui hurriedly picked her up and ran towards home.
Fortunately, the snack workshop was built not far from the beach. In a few breaths, Wang Bu died and ran back to the Wang family mansion.
It's still dark at the moment, and everyone who has worked hard all night to stay up late has just fallen asleep.
Leng Bingbing had just undressed and lay down when the door was kicked open suddenly. Leng Bingbing was about to take out the soft sword in his hand, and then saw his husband-in-law running in with a woman on his shoulders.
Leng Bingbing's head was full of doubts. She could understand that her husband appeared in her bedroom early in the morning. After all, it had been more than half a year and her husband had not made a move yet, and it was very hard to endure. At this beginning of the year, let's do something to benefit herself. The matter of descendants is also very meaningful. What does it mean to just carry a woman? Could it be that my husband pities me and can't bear to flog me for the first time more than twice. I have found an emergency person, but this woman is coming from the right way. Well, they couldn't have been robbed, right? The "Laws of the Ming Dynasty" stipulates that those who plunder and sell people will be sentenced to one hundred years' imprisonment and exiled for three thousand miles; There is also a clear record in the Empire's "Protection of Women's Rights and Interests" that those who plunder the daughters of good families will be beheaded at the market and their property will be transferred to the national treasury. My father-in-law was literate at the age of three, read all ancient books at the age of four, could compose poems at the age of five, and knew five things. A hundred years, I know five hundred years, I shouldn't be guilty of anything that violates the laws of the Ming Empire. Leng Bingbing has considered so much in a short period of time.
"Oh, shameless Wang Bu Die, he has no clothes on." A woman's voice came from behind Leng Bingbing.
There is only one person in the snack shop who dares to call Wang Immortal like this, and that is Jing Hao, the sole heir to the immortal medicine miracle doctor. In ancient times when entertainment was extremely scarce, people who celebrated the Chinese New Year naturally played cards. Last night, Leng Bing Jing Hao and Da Ming A little green little green classmates, fighting landlords until late at night, so no one left.
Then a small green shadow appeared behind Jinghao,
"Master, where did you snatch this woman from during the Chinese New Year?"
Well, fortunately, I had the foresight to make the beds of the largest size, otherwise it might not be possible to sleep so many people at the same time.
The three of them all looked at Wang Busheng. You know the ancient women's pajamas, plus the modern heating tools and air conditioners in the room, so the clothes they wore were very thin, and it seemed that the clothes they wore were only visible to everyone. clothes, because Wang Busheng had clearly seen the butterfly pattern on Leng Bingbing's chest, as well as Xiaolu and Jinghao's newly developed Wangzai buns that still had a lot of room for improvement.
If it were normal times, Wang Busui would sit down and pour himself a cup of tea, then tell them about the disadvantages of staying up late to play cards, and casually suggest the correct way to dress at night, but at this moment Wang Busui was not in that mood at all.
Putting down Zhang Jingjun, he hurriedly shouted, "Hurry up and get dressed."
"Isn't that right?" Jinghao and Xiaolu refused. Although they didn't say anything coldly, they were a little unhappy with Wang Busheng's request. It was also appropriate to get more sleep during the Chinese New Year.
Without waiting for Wang Busui to explain, Zhang Jingjun, who had just been put down, spoke first, "Leng Bingbing, it's bad, the Japanese pirates are attacking."
"Miss Zhang Er" saw the person clearly and Leng Bingbing shouted in surprise. Leng Bingbing knew that her husband went out last night, but she didn't expect that Zhang Jingjun would appear in front of her for the first time in this way.
"Sister Leng, you still don't want to listen to my brother and put on your clothes first." Zhang Jingjun also had no time to reminisce with her future sisters, so she hurriedly urged her.
"The Japanese pirates are coming, you read that right," Xiao Lu was shocked by the news and sat up. She didn't even notice that the clothes on her shoulders slipped down, revealing a large area of white snow.
"Of course not. It's not Japanese pirates who are celebrating the New Year, but maritime merchants." Wang Bushi stopped explaining, "Sister Leng, you go to Songjiang Mansion to report the news, Xiaolu, take Jinghao and Xiaohong with Jingjun and hide in the British Government Mansion, sister Leng, you also go to the British Government Mansion to hide after reporting the news."
Leng Bingbing is good at martial arts and can move faster. As for letting everyone hide in the British Duke's Mansion, Wang Bushit also considered it. Although Songjiang Mansion was on guard, Wang Bushit didn't believe in military ministers like Xiong Yingxiong, and although the British Duke no longer had They were personally armed, but the ruthless behavior of these people made Wang Bushit feel that the British government was safer than the prefect's yamen.
"What about you?" Leng Bingbing and Zhang Jingjun asked at the same time, and then they looked at each other in unison.
"I'm going to wake everyone up and then I'll go find you." They are all family members, and Wang Busheng does not want to abandon anyone.
Before Wang Bushi finished speaking, Leng Bingbing and the others had already started to get up and get dressed. They had no time to appreciate the beautiful scene. "Don't bring anything with you. Let's go separate ways."
"Mr., please be careful."
Wang Busui nodded and ran out of the door. He kicked open everyone's door, and soon everyone in the Wang family mansion was called up. Everyone gathered together, and then Wang Busui lit the beacon tower.
In order to defend against Japanese invaders, beacon towers were installed at coastal guards. After all, his snack workshop was right on the seaside, so Wang Busheng was prepared. Beacons were the fastest way for the Ming Empire to spread enemy information. Originally, Wang Busheng also wanted to If Leng Bingbing was not allowed to take the risk and go directly to the British government for safety, he would just light a beacon. However, Wang Busheng was worried that everyone would have a holiday during the Chinese New Year, so he asked Leng Bingbing to go there just to be sure.
I carefully counted the number of people, for fear of missing one person, Liu Mei, Dai Zi, Feng Ru, Huang Luzhuang, Li Ergou, Ge Da, Ge Er, Baimao, Heigou, Boss Wang and a few others who did not go home for the New Year. Snack shop employees,
"Everyone will follow me for a while, don't worry about anything, just run towards the city."
I originally thought that the Japanese pirates were far away from me, but who knew that he would appear in front of me soon, and everyone was frightened, including Wang Busheng.
However, before Wang Busui ran out the door, he heard the rapid footsteps outside. Seeing this, Wang Busui signaled everyone to be quiet, then Xiaoxiao came to the corner and quietly exposed his head.
