Dajin, Xianmen Pass, Xianmen Palace.
On this day, Zhuge Weidao, who had just seen off Lin Zexu, returned to his residence in Xianmen Pass. Before he could relax with Nalandili, his young apprentice Sushun sent him a handwritten letter from Emperor Daoguang. , let him enter the palace immediately.
Zhuge Weidao did not dare to neglect... After all, the Kingdom of Jin has been thrust into war by him. The swearing-in meeting for printing in the south has been held, eight brigades of the Eighth Banners New Army have been assembled, and the leading troops have already marched towards Samarkand. At this time, he has to work harder!
So Zhuge Weidao could only let Nalandili wait at home, and he went to Xianmen Palace with Xiao Sushun.
This Xianmen Palace is called "Palace", but it is actually a larger house. How big is it? The area is larger than Zhuge Weidao's house in Goulan Hutong, Beijing, but not as big as his Xishan villa outside Beijing... So Zhuge Weidao followed Sushun in and within a few doorways, he heard Daoguang. The emperor laughed.
"Okay, okay, King Pingxi, you win again. You are truly worthy of being the number one Batulu in my country today!"
Then there was a very rough voice: "Hahaha, the emperor has given me a reward. This slave is just a little more powerful than others."
What? King Pingxi?
Zhuge Weidao was standing outside a large hall and heard Daoguang inside seeming to be talking to someone like King Pingxi. He was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Xiao Sushun, "Xiao Shunzi, is King Pingxi a descendant of Wu Sangui? "
"Yes!" Xiao Sushun nodded, "Whose descendant could it be?"
Yes, if the descendants of King Pingnan should be named Shang.
As far as Zhuge Weidao knows, there is no San Francisco Rebellion in this timeline. The old traitor Wu Sangui was sent by Kangxi to Shandong to resist King Wuzhong when King Zhuge Wuzhong went north to Beijing. As a result, he was defeated and died miserably. corpse. When the news reached Beijing, Emperor Kangxi cried and fainted on the spot. After being revived, he wrote a poem called "Crying in Sacrifice to King Pingxi Zhonglie".
In short, Wu Sangui was beaten as a loyal martyr by Zhuge Zhongshan, but his descendants should be saved. I just didn’t expect that the title of King Pingxi could still be hereditary until now!
At this time, Sushun said again: "Teacher, the current king of Pingxi has a fax, his character is Zhenghong, he is a minister of the bodyguard, he is always knowledgeable...his martial arts skills are unparalleled, and he is unstoppable, so you have to be careful! "
Shuda is the official who teaches the prince martial arts, equivalent to the palace instructor, and Zong Shuda is the chief instructor... This martial arts should be very high!
"Why should I be careful?" Zhuge Weidao didn't understand for a moment and looked at Sushun blankly.
Sushun smiled and said: "Teacher, I ordered our ancestor King Wu Zhong to kill King Pingxi Zhonglie... The revenge of killing our ancestors!"
When Zhuge Weidao heard this, he felt a little guilty, but he still glared at Sushun.
At this moment, a white eunuch came out of the main hall. When he saw Zhuge Weidao and Su Shun, he bowed to him, and then spoke in fluent Chinese: "Mr. Zhuge, Mr. Su Liu, the emperor invites you to enter the palace."
After saying that, he made another gesture of respecting guests, bowed his waist and said, "Please come with me."
Zhuge Weidao adjusted his yellow mantle and followed him in - he is now the general adviser of the navy of Dajin, and can be regarded as an official of Dajin. But there is no official staff, just a non-staff member. Therefore, he was not officially appointed as an official, but was given a yellow mantle, so that everyone he met could be considered to be on the same level or more than half the level.
Entering the main hall, Zhuge Weidao saw at a glance a muscular man standing there with his upper body bare, and smirking at the three strong men in short coats and trousers lying on the floor - it looked like he had just There was a one-on-three wrestling match!
Daoguang was sitting on a soft couch, and there were two mixed-race orchids who were no less than Nalandili waiting on him. Seeing Zhuge Weidao and Sushun coming in, Daoguang smiled and waved to them, "Master Dao, Xiao Shunzi, come here quickly... Master Dao, you and I don't need to be polite. Come on, Bring a chair to Zhuge Daozi. Daozi, sit down and talk."
"Brother Daoguang, I would rather obey orders than be respectful."
Daoguang and Daozi are both born with the word "Dao", so they have begun to call themselves brothers and brothers these days. Daoguang called Zhuge "Dao's disciple" when he was a Taoist, and Zhuge was called "Daoguang's eldest brother" when Zhuge was a Taoist - this is the meaning of "Daoguang", it seems close! Moreover, the two of them were really able to become relatives, and they both accepted fairies from the Nalan family!
Seeing Zhuge sitting down for Tao, Daoguang smiled and said as a muscular man: "Disciple of Tao, he is Wu Zhenzhen. After Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, he is also the king of Pingxi."
"I have admired you for a long time, I have admired you for a long time." Zhuge Weidao smiled and clasped his fists. I looked at Wu Zhenfa again - his face was full of flesh, and his big beard looked a bit like a steel needle!
Wu Zhenzhen didn't seem to have any intention of avenging his ancestors, and he smiled and cupped his hands: "Mr. Daozi, I have admired you for a long time."
Daoguang smiled and said: "King Pingxi, I have arranged a good job for you. You will work with Daozi."
"Your Majesty, what good job do you want to give this servant?" Wu Zhenzhen asked with a smile.
Daoguang smiled and said: "Shang Shu of the Admiralty Department!"
"What?" Wu Zhenzhen was stunned, "Your Majesty, are you talking about the Navy Department?"
Daoguang smiled and said: "Yes, King Pingxi, I just want you to be the Minister of the Navy."
"But I, Dajin, don't have a navy!"
Daoguang said: "It will be there soon! You are the Minister of the Navy, and Daozi is the general advisor sent by the Ming Dynasty to help us build the navy... Then you can select hundreds of warriors from my guard camp to accompany you. Join the navy together so that I, Dajin, can have a navy."
"Yes, but there is no sea in the Kingdom of Jin!" Wu Zhenzhen was still not willing to be a navy - how could you be a navy without a sea?
Daoguang smiled and asked Zhuge Weidao: "My disciple, tell me, can we build a navy without the sea?"
Zhuge Weidao smiled and nodded: "Yes! Brother Daoguang, your Eight Banners soldiers of Dajin are called heavenly soldiers. Can they go to heaven?"
"That's right!" Daoguang nodded with a smile, "Heavenly soldiers cannot go to the sky, and the navy does not necessarily have to go to the sea! King Pingxi, do you think this is true?"
Wu Zhenzhen thought about it and thought it made sense, but he was still unwilling to accept it. "Your Majesty, this servant only has brute strength and courage. He can charge into battle, but he can't be a navy..."
Daoguang turned to Zhuge Weidao and asked: "Daozi, how do you want to be a navy?"
Zhuge Weidao looked at Wu Zhenfa and asked with a smile: "My lord, are you brave?"
"Big!" Wu Zhenfa nodded and patted his chest, "I can be Batulu!"
"Then...are you afraid of heights?" Zhuge Weidao asked again.
"Afraid of heights?" Wu Zhenzhen said sincerely: "Do you have to stand very high to be a navy?"
"I'm not afraid." Although he didn't understand the relationship between the navy and fear of heights, Wu Zhenfa still answered truthfully, "I'm not afraid of heights!"
"As long as you are not afraid of heights!" Zhuge Weidao said to Daoguang, "Brother Daoguang, I think he can be a good navy."
"That's good," Daoguang said with a smile, "King Pingxi, from now on you will be the Minister of the Admiralty of Dajin... Do your best and don't disgrace the reputation of your ancestors!"
As soon as Daoguang mentioned "ancestor", Zhuge Daozi's heart tightened. Look at this Wu Zhenzhen - well, he is at least 1.9 meters tall, and his arms are so thick that they can almost catch up with the thighs of ordinary people. He weighs at least two hundred kilograms, right? It’s not easy to direct!
"Brother Daoguang," Zhuge Weidao said, "the training and use of troops are all about order and prohibition... After all, I am a foreign minister and have no prestige in the Jin army. Why don't you give me the Shangfang sword?"
After hearing the words "Shang Fang Bao Jian", Wu Zhenzhen felt a chill on the back of his head, and he couldn't help but take a few steps back...
Daoguang glanced at the fiercest man under his command, and then smiled and said to Zhuge Weidao: "Brother Dao, I don't have Shangfang's sword in Dajin. Let's do this. I'll lend you a Jubilong sword. If anyone doesn't obey your command, you can kill him first and then tell him."
"Your Majesty, isn't this appropriate..." Wu Zhenzhen became anxious upon hearing this.
Daoguang actually felt that it was inappropriate, but now he really wanted Zhuge to be the Dao, so he had to hold back a little and went back to add: "But you can't kill more than one, you can only kill one!"
Zhuge Weidao looked at Wu Zhenfa and said with a smile: "One is enough, one is enough... King Pingxi, don't you think so?"
