"I'm afraid that Gao will not stay in Jiangnan for too long. He will leave within a month or two at most."
"Brother Fang, I don't know what you are going to do next. Should you continue to stay here, or follow me to Bianliang, Tokyo?"
As soon as Gao Zhang finished speaking, Fang La replied without hesitation.
"In the end, I will listen to Duke Zhuangyuan."
"That's all, you should continue to stay here. Remember, Navy Master, you must hold it firmly in your hand."
"If anyone wants to use the water division, you should contact the wise manager of the Suzhou Weaving Factory as soon as possible, and he will tell me."
"In addition, the Suzhou Shipyard's 5,000-material ship has reached the final stage of construction."
"You try to recruit more sailors who know how to sail on the ocean, whether they are from the Song Dynasty, or those from Persia and the Great Cannibals."
"Then start trying to sail far. Don't worry about the northern route now. We will wait until Fuso Kingdom completely controls the entire Japanese island."
“But they should be able to take the southern route first, as there are many island countries in the south.
Firstly, it was just for trade, and secondly, it was just for them to find suitable islands along the way and prepare for future ocean voyages. "
After Gao Zhang finished his instructions, Fang La saluted Gao Zhang again.
"At the end of the day, I have something to ask of you, and I ask for your permission."
"Tell me, what's the matter?"
"The last general dog, Fang Hao, is now ten years old. He has been studying and practicing martial arts since he was a child, but he has never been taught by a famous teacher..."
Gao Zhang raised his eyebrows and immediately heard the smell. Fang La wanted his ten-year-old son to worship him as his teacher and take him to Bianliang, Tokyo.
Gao Zhang wanted to refuse, but Fang Baihua behind him also tried to persuade him at this time, hoping that Gao Zhang could accept her eldest nephew.
In this case, Gao Zhang no longer declined politely, but just told Fang La that if he wanted his son to follow him to Bianliang, Tokyo, it was best to come as soon as possible.
It just so happened that the boy was allowed to be a companion with Li Zhongtong. With these real children, Gao Zhang felt that he really couldn't talk to them.
I still prefer to have in-depth communication and chat with a long-legged lady like Fang Baihua.
#####
But what Gao Zhang didn't expect was that the news that he was leaving Suzhou had just come out in Suzhou, and it caused quite a disturbance.
Starting from the next day, some gentry elders came to ask if Gao Xuanfu really wanted to leave Suzhou.
After that, more and more people came spontaneously to petition to stay, and the government office was completely blocked.
Even if Gao Zhang went out in person to persuade the people to leave, it wouldn't be long before the people would automatically gather here again.
This made Gao Zhang moved, but also a little helpless.
At this moment, the officials in Bianliang, Tokyo, were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths when they saw the news from the Imperial City Division.
“For ten consecutive days, I couldn’t find a chance to leave the Zhizhou Mansion, and in the end I had someone falsely spread the news.
It was said that Duke Zhuangyuan had already left by boat, and when the people rushed to the dock, he quickly left Suzhou City. "
"In order to serve as an official and be supported by all the people, Xiao Gao has really lived up to my expectations for him."
"What the officials said is very true, and I also feel that it is fortunate that the Number One Scholar has an official to guide him and resolve his doubts. Otherwise, no matter how smart the Number One Scholar is, he would never be able to do what he is today."
"He made so many achievements in Jiangnan. He not only quelled the rebellion, but also knew how to manage civil affairs.
In just a few years, Suzhou was able to wipe out the impact of Zhu's Rebellion, and the land and taxes were as good as before. "
"You should speak out well on my behalf. Not only did you burn the capital of the Japanese king with surprise troops, but you also made the Japanese king who dared to call himself emperor in front of me die of fear."
"When he returns to Bianliang, Tokyo, I will definitely give Xiao Gao a big surprise."
"Surprise?" Yang Jian raised his head in astonishment.
Some people don't understand what kind of surprise the official family can bring to this champion.
The official Zhao Ji smiled mysteriously, turned his head, and looked at the portrait Xiao Gaojin presented to him.
At this moment, there is another eye-catching seal on the portrait, which is the seal of longevity and longevity made by Xiao Gao.
Lu Mengzheng, the number one scholar during the reign of Emperor Taizong, spent six years being promoted to the position of Zuo Jianyi doctor, participating in political affairs, and becoming a consul.
And since Xiao Gao became an official until now, his outstanding political achievements are definitely far superior to that of Lu Mengzheng.
Therefore, when he returns to Bianliang, Tokyo from Jiangnan, he will definitely give this child a big surprise.
After thinking for a long time, the confused official received Yang Jian's reminder that he had decided to go to Yuqing Zhaoying Palace to practice today, and he must not delay this matter.
Anyway, it will take some time for Xiao Gao to return to Tokyo, so think about it slowly and don't be in a hurry.
#####
Official Zhao Ji slowly opened his eyes. After a full hour of cultivation, he felt that his whole body seemed to be much more refreshed.
Seeing that Xu Zhichang, Zuo Daolu (a Taoist official in the Song Dynasty) who was in front of him to teach him how to cultivate, was sitting in front of him and did not leave, he couldn't help but speak.
"Although I have often meditated and practiced Qi these days, I have always found it difficult to make any progress. I don't know if I have encountered a bottleneck on this road..."
Xu Zhichang looked at this faint king who obviously didn't have enough sleep and must have spent the night wandering around somewhere last night.
It's a pity that there are many things that cannot be said directly. If you say it directly, it will be useless.
The officials will also think that he is incompetent, so they will find reasons to deal with him.
Xu Zhichang, who had been in Zuo Daolu's position for many years, smiled enigmatically and then began to explain.
"In the official family, those who practice Taoism are most afraid of self-doubt. The Taoist teachings are intended to be profound, and they should be balanced and practiced every day..."
Xu Zhichang's words naturally contain a warning, but it depends on whether the other party is willing to understand it.
What's more, this Xu Zhichang was originally a Taoist priest with quite advanced Taoist cultivation. These words left the official Zhao Ji speechless.
However, the official Zhao Ji was still a little unwilling to give up. He always wondered if it was the Taoist priests currently in Yuqing Zhaoying Palace that could only allow him to advance to this point.
I'm afraid I'll need a better Taoist leader to guide me on the next road.
"Taoist Master Xu, as Zuo Daolu, I wonder if any Taoist priest with magical powers and mystical powers will visit the Gyeonggi area these days?"
Hearing the official's question, Xu Zhichang's eyelids twitched and he began to rack his brains to consider whether there was any Taoist official whose level of appreciation he had.
Seeing Xu Zhichang frowning and thinking hard for a long time without saying anything, the official Zhao Ji was a little disappointed, but he still encouraged Xu Zhichang.
Let him continue to be optimistic about Yuqing Zhaoying Palace. If there is a Taoist priest with miraculous methods, remember to inform him and let him come and see for himself.
After Xu Zhichang respectfully sent the official Zhao Ji out of the Yuqing Zhaoying Palace, he let out a deep breath and shook his head.
At almost the same moment, a Lin Taoist priest who came from the Shu region stood outside Bianliang City in Tokyo.
Looking at this tall city, I can't help but be filled with pride...
I’ll rest now and continue working hard during the day. Please vote for me.
