Return to Ming Dynasty as Prince: Two hundred and seventy-one, I found the treasure

Seeing Yang Ling's stinky face, Cheng Qiyun blinked her eyes and smiled: "What's the matter with your lord?"

Yang Ling touched his nose and said: "Is this count as Wang Zhaojun going out of the confinement and making a kiss?"

Cheng Qiyun endured a smile and said, "No... forget it? If you count it, it's also a step back."

Cheng Qiyun laughed as soon as she finished speaking, unrestrained and unpretentious, laughing very happily. Yang Ling has never seen her laugh so openly in front of her, her voice is extremely clear, and Yang Ling finally couldn't help laughing.

The soldier and maid at the door probed their probes in surprise, and then quickly retracted.

Yang Ling smiled, sat back in the chair, and gave Cheng Qiyun a meaningful look: "The'best strategy' of Chengda military division is not advisable. You, although there are so many scheming ideas, some ideas still can't escape a woman. The shackles of the government, that is, the state affairs and family affairs are mixed together. It is not clear. Besides the decent court, it is the official individual. For this purpose... it is also a gentleman. Look at it, is it not a gentleman?"

Cheng Qiyun wrinkled her nose playfully, stroked her forehead for a moment, then rolled her eyes and said slyly: "Then...there is only treacherous, two-pronged approach..."

"Oh? what do you say?" Yang Ling gave her suspiciously.

Cheng Qiyun talked to him in a low voice, Yang Ling listened to it for a while, and said with a smile: "It seems that I don't want to hear any honest plan from you, hehe, give it a try Right..."

※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※※Adni speaks Chinese, but he does not know Hanyu, which is not surprising Most of the Han Chinese who smuggled and run boats, or even went to work as sailors on Western boats, are illiterate. She is already very wise in learning Chinese so fluently in just two years of communication.

Yang Ling still has a lot of official documents to be processed every day, but now that Cheng Qiyun has arrived, many things can be done by Cheng Qiyun. All important official duties were sent to the Yang Ling study by the various ministries and offices. After reading the Yang Ling, the ones that had to be handled by themselves were left behind, and the rest were transferred to the Qiyun study. This work was handed over to Adeni.

In this case, Adeni was competent and happy, and Adeni was obviously tired of the life of staying in the boudoir all day without leaving the door. Once she got a job, even the simplest things, Let her whole person become energetic. The eyes were bright and full of energy.

When Yang Ling gathers officials from various ministries and departments of military, government, taxation, criminal work and local ethnic minorities to discuss political, military, administrative, taxation, employment and other issues, Adni will listen carefully as long as she is there. Be very careful.

Especially when Yang Ling talks about many more advanced and scientific theories and concepts that are beyond the current era, it makes Adeni even more fascinating. He seemed extremely admired. When there were only two people in the room, Yang Ling was reading the official document, and Adeni was just swaying her feather fan and serving tea.

"Well, I didn't expect such a trivial matter as the Ryukyu garrison, and the response would be such a big response. Great Ming is the first time to send troops to a foreign country. The surrounding small countries have responded strongly. Some hope to follow this example. Please Great Ming to garrison for safety, and some I was extremely nervous, worried that the court would interfere too much with them." Yang Ling said, pointing to a secret report from the factory guard.

Adeni already knows the relationship between Ryukyu’s geographic location and Great Ming and other countries, and she smiled playfully: “That’s natural. The more powerful the country, the less willing it is to be controlled by others. In fact, Great Ming The surrounding small countries have been established for at least a century and have a complete system. It is enough to submit to the vassal. Great Ming has such a strong national power and a large population. Why not develop further and open up colonial territories?"

"Colonization?" Yang Ling was startled.

Adni said: "Yes, many places do not have a unified country. They are loose tribal organizations that occupy vast lands and are easy to conquer. Take these places and set up governors, even if you don’t use them as looting. For the purpose, as long as it is used as its own raw material producing area and sales market, it will also generate huge wealth for the country."

Yang Ling thought about it, shook his head and smiled: "Impossible. We Han Chinese have passed on for thousands of years and have formed a unified national concept. We don't want to expand our minds outside the sentence. We can gradually change people's consciousness by opening seas and trading. , But in terms of the political system, the court will not allow an independent and powerful armed force to exist outside the central government, far beyond the limits of the world."

Adni frowned slightly: The Han people's thinking is really strange. No one in her country will consider this issue. It seems that what is acceptable in the West may not work in the East.

But Adeni was not convinced, she thought about it, and then said: "If... the wealth generated in these places is enough to make the court tempted, and there is no need for the court to send heavy troops to Ryukyu, which consumes a lot of money and manpower. , These places can still be included in the rule of the empire, will the emperor not allow it?"

Yang Ling straightened up and said with interest: "Go on, what do you mean?"

Adeni said with confidence: "I just said that there are many places where there are only many loose tribes, and they are extremely backward. With the weapons and equipment of the Ming army, a small number of troops can conquer. These places have nothing to do with the court. , Can now be incorporated into the empire’s territory, provide a lot of wealth, and dump the products produced. I don’t think there is any effective emperor who has such a short-sighted vision and will be indifferent to it..."

Yang Ling nodded and said, "So what about continuous rule? Since there is a vast land, obviously it can't be maintained by a small number of troops in this area. How to ensure the private order there, formulate relevant laws, and transport a large number of Materials, collect taxes and rule?"

Adenie seemed to be interrupted by his cross-examination, frowning unhappily, and a little ecstatic: "My lord, it is very impolite to interrupt a lady."

After all, she is young, although she has knowledge, but no city, she has forgotten the identity of the other party when she debated. She never thought that in Great Ming, it would be extremely rude for a woman to interrupt a man at will.

Yang Ling didn't think so, he raised his eyebrows, nodded amused, and quickly closed his mouth and listened to her.

Adni thought for a while, and continued: "As for worrying about sending a large number of expeditionary troops, the ends of the world, like self-reliance as a king, will eventually be backlashed. This situation will not happen. First of all, as long as the central government is strong. With unification, it is difficult for the colony to resist. After all, its existence depends on the central government, and independence requires many conditions, which can be described as difficult. Secondly, because there was no strong and unified government in those places. There is no need for a large army. A 1,000-man Great Ming army is enough to conquer the poorly equipped tribes with artillery and swords. Is the empire even afraid of a 1,000-man team? In the future, you can recruit native officials and local officials. Hiring soldiers, hiring foreigners to obey their own army. My country does this. In this way, the supreme ruler of the place belongs to Great Ming. But they are a minority and rely on the power of the empire to conquer the local area . There is no guts to rebel. And the governor can change every three years, which does not give him the opportunity to build a private arm that is absolutely obedient to individuals. The local natives are frightened by the empire’s force, and many of their people are employed by the empire. It is also difficult to organize effective resistance as a benefit-sharer. You must know that they did not have a country before, and as long as they are not treated harshly, it is difficult to have a common belief to form a powerful anti-government organization."

She talked about the rise, she pulled a chair forgot, sat opposite Yang Ling, and continued: "Perhaps, they will have the strength to resist in a few hundred years, but what does it matter? Come as the current emperor. Said that he only sent one thousand households, and a place that did not belong to him will provide his court with allegiance for hundreds of years and provide hundreds of years of wealth. Even if it is abandoned one day, there will be no loss to Great Ming." /

Yang Ling was shocked. He squeezed his chin and thought for a while, then he laughed and said, "It seems that there is some truth. Now there is Tatar in the north of Great Ming Great Ming and Japanese pirates in the south. The navy is also more powerful, familiar with the countries far and near, marching and fighting at sea, all conditions are ripe, I will speak to your majesty."

Adney pursed her lips and stood up triumphantly, not paying attention to the flashing look in Yang Ling's eyes at all, bringing out a meaningful smile.

Yang Ling often read the official documents, picking up the main points and listening to her. At first, Adeni still pretended to be ignorant. I don’t know if a good person who has always been regarded as honest and simple pretends to be the easiest to make people feel. Being blinded in unsuspecting circumstances.

Yang Ling initially only asked her skillfully how these things were handled in her country, and only asked her to state the facts of the country’s operations, so that even if she confided, it would not be inconsistent with the identity of a village girl, let alone Ah De Ni is very accustomed to women's participation in political affairs.

With reluctant confession and proper narration, she refuted some of the opinions expressed by Yang Ling as'unbearable', and angrily refuted, being driven step by step by Yang Ling, the opponent who is familiar with the psychology of others and the most adept at debating, she improved without a trace. Adeni said more and more about her own opinions, and she didn't realize that what she had expressed was no longer consistent with her identity.

Although Adeni is very knowledgeable, she is an eighteen-year-old girl who knows so much about the cunning of officialdom. What's more, this Eastern country has existed for thousands of years. Its officialdom is far more complicated than her small country which is less than Great Ming. Even if Yang Ling is a newcomer in this officialdom, it is easy to deal with her.

This is not the first time that Yang Ling has discussed political affairs with her. She is also unknowingly accustomed to this kind of status as an internal staff member, and she is quite contented with the ingenuity that can be seen from her.

Yang Ling heard her talk and talked very well, and often had unique insights, so when encountering some difficult questions, they casually talked to her and listened to her. The two of them expressed what they had seen each other, and sometimes they lost their minds in the conversation, and even became blushing. .

At this moment, Adeni is like a eager child who has completely forgotten her status as a slave girl. She pulls a chair to the opposite side of Yang Ling. She starts to mention facts and bases, regardless of politics. The military engineers talked endlessly and didn't realize the jokes and funny eyes of Yang Ling.

After all, Yang Ling comes from modern times, and her ideology is a hundred years more advanced than her, and sometimes Adeni is speechless. After thinking about it carefully, she will frankly admit that Yang Ling is right, this kind of frank character is very attractive.

But the consciousness of being too advanced was unrealistic under the circumstances and conditions at the time. Sometimes Yang Ling thought it was right now when it came up with an idea, and Adoni proposed several things necessary to realize it. When the basic material conditions and consciousness requirements came, she asked about Yang Ling. Every time Adeni raised her eyebrows, she was proud of her expression, her expression was indescribably charming.

Unconsciously, the two became familiar. The relationship between each other is not like an adult and a maid, but like a boss and a female staff member in the house, very easy-going and harmonious. As a foreigner who lives alone in a foreign country, has no pros and no friends, even though Adeni is so independent and self-reliant, his emotional dependence on Yang Ling is still growing.

This is the great eastern empire described in Marco Polo's Travels. After wandering on its ocean for more than two years, he finally set foot on its land as a slave.

Fortunately, this place is more civilized than the world described by Marco Polo. The adults here did not regard the slave women as personal items that can be disposed of at will. He... the lord of the Eastern Marquis, respects me very much. He has profound knowledge and honorable education.

She quietly glanced at Yang Ling, Yang Ling wore a silk waistcoat on her shirtless. Is looking at a document intently. Thick, jet-black hair, that stout bridge of nose. There is also that smooth-lined face pet, focused and energetic eyes, quietly touching the feelings of the Adeni girl.

This is the most handsome oriental man I have ever seen, and he talks witty. In my homeland, I will never go back again. Will he be a man with me in my life? Perhaps, for a female slave, there is nothing happier than this, after all, he is such an excellent man.

The governor commanding an army of 100,000, my God, all the old and weak women and children in my country have a population of only one million. His governor’s six provinces are six times larger than our kingdom.

Adni’s dream once was that a handsome knight could come to her on a tall horse, kneel on one knee, kiss her hand gently, and then take her back to her own Manor and castle. Although it is not the imaginary scene now, he should be the prince destined to belong to him.

Wandering thousands of miles, a young girl was tossing and turning around among the wolves until she was so lucky to meet him. Isn’t it God’s will? This kind of relationship is really crazy. There is no dance party, no banquet, no date under the moonlight, and no roses she picked for herself. She will become his woman, and... I seem to really fall in love with him. Him.

Adeni’s heart throbbed like a deer. When she grew up so big, she really never had a man in her heart, because she began to learn the etiquette of nobles and ladies since she was five. Talk and dance.

She also needs to learn fencing, horse riding, and shooting. She has the best teachers in the country in language, history, and philosophy. She is fluent in Latin, Greek, French, Spanish and Italian.

She is Agarve’s arrogant, the most popular lady in the Portuguese upper class. I don’t know how many handsome riders, young barons, and viscounts circle her pomegranate skirt, treating her as the noblest princess. , But now she has become a slave girl.

Adni sighed lightly. She noticed that Yang Ling's eyebrows were also locked, and there was uncontrollable anger on her face. The hand holding the official document was shaking slightly, and he couldn't help stopping the fan in his hand, and asked with concern: "My lord, what happened?"

Yang Ling did not talk to her about the contents of the official document as before, and even looked at her with a trace of disgust and hatred. Adeni took a step back in surprise. Yang Ling lowered her eyes and suppressed her anger forcibly. After a while, she said coldly: "Give the official document to Master Cheng and ask her to read it right away."

Adeni obediently did not ask any more, and agreed to accept the document, and hurriedly walked to the door, listening to Yang Ling calling: "Wait, uh... If the adult's place is not too busy, ask her to read it. I will see me after I have written the official document."

"Leaving, sir." Adeni promised in a panic, and quickly slipped away.

In Cheng Qiyun's room, there are two officials in green robes who seem to be talking to her on business. Adeni has always been afraid of Cheng Qiyun's eyes that seem to know everything. She may not have the profound knowledge and know-how of her own, but her understanding of human nature and her thorough understanding of the human heart often makes Adeni feel invisible in front of her, so she often unconsciously Avoiding Cheng Qiyun.

After repeating Yang Ling's words, Adeni exited the room silently. Yang Ling had never spoken to her in such a cold tone, and her eyes would look disgusting. If Yang Ling had treated her as a slave girl who gave and asked her from the beginning, and never respected her, she might not care about Yang Ling's attitude so much, but now she is sad.

As soon as Adeni walked out, she heard Cheng Qiyun scream: "Beast!"

Adni was startled, she couldn't help stopping her footsteps, and seeing no one outside the door, she flashed to the side quietly, holding the grape rack to listen. I only heard an official in the room ask in surprise: "Sir, what happened?"

Cheng Qiyun seemed to be still angry, and scolded: "The Franco pirates full of thorns took advantage of me to gather troops to wipe out the Japanese pirates, occupy Tuen Mun Island, attack Dongguan County, and rob women and children. Those She humiliates women and eats children raw. What a group of demons!"

Adeni's horror: Did the Francois pirate attack the Ming court? She knew that these pirates from her own country were ferocious and insulted those small countries along the way. Killing is even more commonplace, but for her pirate ship, because she has never figured out the true strength of this pet empire, she is afraid of Great Ming, and she rarely provokes Ming Dynasty. I don’t know how many pirates are full of thorns. People, dare to attack the Great Ming mainland directly.

But when it comes to eating raw children, Adeni feels aggrieved in her heart. The Ming people have always regarded them as wild people, but they don’t know that they come all the way to the east, and they are always worried that the natives of countries with weird looks and clothes will be cannibals. Fan. The pirate ship where she is on employs Great Ming people. Those people often say that they have wronged the barbarians in the past when they talk and laugh. Seeing their appearances are strange, folks say that they are from a country of cannibalism, and they also eloquently say that they are the best to eat children. The child is often steamed in an iron pot steamer to perspire, and then brushed with an iron brush to remove the bitter skin. At this time, the child is still alive, and then the child is opened to the stomach and cooked. It made Adeni disgust.

But she didn’t dare to go back and argue, because those abducted women would inevitably be humiliated and eventually sold as slaves in India or the West with the children. This is the main purpose of pirates abducting and trafficking in people, and it’s full What can she justify for the crime? No wonder Master Yang looked at himself with such eyes, it turned out to be for this reason.

Adeni feels even more wronged. Their country is not like Great Ming, where the country is small and many, and there are many races. Because of their different religious beliefs, they can't fight each other at all times. Therefore, the aristocracy pays the most attention to family groups, and there is no such strong sense of nationality and ethnic group as the current Ming Dynasty people. So she would not feel cordial just because the pirates were Francois, nor would she feel that she should be held responsible for the pirates who were born with Francis.

Although Adeni thinks this way, she also knows that the Orientals don’t think so, otherwise there would be no such thing as the incomprehensible and impossible existence of the ancestors in their criminal law. This is caused by things With the legal foundation of different ideologies precipitated by Fang Qian's social system, Adeni had to return to the Yang Ling room sullenly.

On this day, Yang Ling was extremely indifferent to her. The attitude of all the servants and public servants in the mansion toward her has also quietly changed. As a human who needs a group life, she has gradually adapted to this place. The environment and atmosphere, this indifference that was abandoned by everyone, made Adeni become depressed and unable to eat dinner.

On the second day, Adeni took care of Yang Ling even more, serving tea, handing water, and fanning handkerchiefs, but Yang Ling was very polite to her when she was busy, but she lost her former cordiality, and she was almost Xi Qian At that time, Cheng Qiyun suddenly hurried to the room and said with joy: "My lord, Francois..."

She only noticed that Adni was here, and said to her hurriedly: "Adni, you leave first, I have important things to talk to adults."

Adni silently bowed, and quietly stepped out. She turned the door and walked a few steps along the corridor. As soon as she got out of sight in the door, she stepped over the railing, tiptoedly sneaked to the bottom of the window and squatted down with her skirt. It is full of vines, and inside is where the Yang Ling desk is placed. If Cheng Qiyun wants to talk to an adult on official business, she should hear her best here.

She heard Cheng Qiyun mentioned Franck Ji. She had been left out in the cold for the past two days. Because of this matter, how she would be dealt with in the future would probably be tied to this matter. How could she not be concerned?

Adeni squatted under the window, only listening to Yang Ling asking: "What news?"

Just listen to Cheng Qiyun said: "My lord, my secret agent pretends to be a trader, and has contacted the Great Ming people on the Franchi pirate ship. They are righteous to them, and they have paid a lot of money. They have promised today Escape the pirate ship by boat at night, if it is convenient to carry a small Franco cannon, it does not matter if it is inconvenient, they already know how to make and use that kind of gun. Just describe it with our artillery craftsmen by drawing shadows and graphics Ready to be made.

"Okay! Great!" Yang Ling said excitedly: "Arrange heavy troops to respond, and make sure that these sailors go ashore safely. Although our warships and artillery can deal with this gang of pirates who are inexhaustible, but the firepower is still slightly worse For one thing, if you are familiar with the structure and power of their artillery, it will be much easier to win. Hahaha..."

Adni was surprised: "It turns out that my lord sent a spy to buy the sailors on the pirate ship. To steal the privacy of the artillery. He...he asked me that day if I was familiar with Western artillery. Was it also for this reason? I... I thought he had doubts about my identity..."

Adney was thinking. Just heard Cheng Qiyun said again: "My lord, you already know that Adeni knows how to use swordsmanship and muskets. Is it possible for a civic girl to understand these things? A slave who was abducted? The body is naturally possible, but the pirate ship came to Great Ming and allowed her to stay on the ship for two years before selling it. How is this possible? Now we are going to fight against the Franco Robot, she is the Franco Robot, stay with the adults It’s too dangerous."

Adenie almost yelled: "What does it have to do with me that those pirates are killed? Despicable, she is trying to drive me away from the adults."

Just listen to the hesitant voice of Yang Ling: "I see... Adeni has a pure temperament and a kind heart, not like a malicious person. Besides, those pirates do a lot of evil, she is also a victim of pirates, how can she doubt her? ?"

Adni's heart warmed, and a warm stream of gratitude and happiness flooded all over her body.

I heard Cheng Qiyun snorted coldly: "My lord, since she is good at guns and swords, how can she be completely ignorant of artillery? The lord asked her that day, why did she hide her from the lord? She was taken captive by pirates. Why should I hide my true identity from the adults? Adults are tied to the safety of the six provinces. The so-called daughter of a daughter is not sitting down. The humble position is responsible for the adult’s safety. How can a life experience become a mystery and possibly to an adult People who are in danger stay with the adults? Please think twice."

Adni bit her lip, and she was secretly annoyed in her heart: This woman must be jealous, she has long seen that she likes adults, but she didn't expect to frame me. My identity is indeed special, but I... never thought of harming adults , I dare not say who I am.

There was a moment of silence in the room, only listening to Yang Ling's voice in a deep and authentic voice: "So...what are you going to do with her?"

As soon as I heard these words, Adeni was like a basin of cold water pouring down, she dropped her head in despair, two teardrops gently dripped on the emerald green grass leaves, only to hear the beauty in the room. The voice said coldly: "She is just an unidentified woman sent by a pirate. Where else can she be placed? It's better to kill it."

Adeni shook her body, only listening to Yang Ling anxiously: "No!"

Cheng Qiyun immediately said again: "Then...sell it into the brothel brothel."

Adni bit her lips and almost bleeds: "Women! Sure enough, only women are the real enemies of women. Jealousy is like a glass of poisonous wine, making them vicious like snakes and scorpions!"

"No!" Yang Ling stopped again, and he sighed: "Oh! I really hope Adeni is a trustworthy person, but unfortunately we are now at war with Franco Robot, and her identity is unknown. It’s really not suitable in this military secret place. No matter, I... I will ask her again if I still refuse to be honest with me... She is an alien woman who can’t survive, so help her find a woman who is willing to be a foreigner. Yes, marry her."

Adni’s complicating tears trickled down, Fang Zhongcheng Qiyun stood opposite Yang Ling, raised her eyebrows, and silently lip-synched to him: “My lord, you are also, more and more Evil, la."

Yang Ling also lip-synched to answer: "I learned from you." Then the two of them looked at each other and smiled.

Cheng Qiyun has been away for a long time, and Adeni slowly moved away the window, stood up with her numb thigh, staggered back to the door, and stood there for a long time.

Yang Ling was flipping through a bunch of official documents and did not notice her presence. Adeni bit her lip and struggled for a long time. Finally, she had the courage and raised her head and said: "My lord!"

Yang Ling turned around in amazement, saw that it was her, and nodded: "Adney? Come in."

After he finished talking, he turned his head, suddenly felt a little weird, and turned his head to look at Adeni~IndoMTL.com~ This twenty-year-old exotic girl is still dressed in the Great Ming woman’s costume, but The smile that was always humble and even a little cowardly disappeared.

She is dressed in women's clothing, but she stands upright, exuding a reserved, noble, elegant, and confident temperament. It seems...somewhat tragic to go to the execution ground. On her peaceful and exotic face, due to tension and seriousness, her delicate and red lips are tightly pressed together, her bright and moving eyes, and her straight nose are full of vigor and heroism.

Yang Ling frowned, wondering: "Adney, what's the matter with you?"

Adeni made a full-fledged expression, she took a sharp breath, and then stepped into the door with one foot, her feet "slapped", her chest was raised, and she stood upright, and said a bunch of weird words. .

Yang Ling did not understand. He put down the Chinese in his hand, stood up and was about to ask, Adeni had repeated it in Chinese.

She looked at Yang Ling and said word by word: "Captain of the Royal Portuguese Navy, Instructor of the Maritime School of San Francisco, Baron Yali Adeni, see Great Ming Imperial Envoy Governor, Your Excellency Yang Ling ."
