The four hundred and twentieth chapters have not yet arrived at the time of peace and enjoyment(2/2)

Butler Luo outside agreed respectfully, spread the gift list and chanted:

"Two pounds of golden rosary frost, five pairs of black rhinoceros horns, one piece of Indian white tiger skin, fifteen pounds of ambergris, two large bells inlaid with gold, two diamond-inlaid with thousands of miles mirrors. Three pairs of Western fire guns, fifty first-class Japanese knives... Two stunning 16-year-old girls in the Western Franchise, five stunning girls in the South China Boni, and five stunning girls in the East China…"

What I said before was a good thing, it was indeed a variety of precious specialties and toys, but later what I reported made Li Meng stunned. The girls at the banquet looked at each other in front of each other.

The old eunuch Liu Fulai, who was sitting in the head, suppressed his smile and poured himself a glass of wine with ease. When the enemy was facing the enemy, Li Meng sat on the horse and looked motionless, and he was calm and composed. He entered the official house alone and killed the bully's inspection. He was calm and calm, as if nothing had happened.

Such calmness and cultivation of temperament, at this time, I couldn't help but have an attack. Listening to the posture of Butler Luo outside, there might be some stunning girls behind me. Li Hong kept asking this and that "what is a stunning girl?" The people sitting around the table all looked strange. I don't know how to answer.

Li Meng stood up, slapped the table heavily, and shouted:

"What a mess, don't think about it anymore. The Zheng family's bastards colluded with the Tartars and became traitors. Now we are in Shandong's victory, and we are back to do something. All these things are back. Shandong is not short of these things!"

In the inner house, these family servants rarely see Li Meng getting such a big temper. Butler Luo outside was stunned for a moment and dared not speak.

Li Meng stood there, looking at the woman and child in the room who were frightened by him, and suddenly felt ridiculous and ridiculous. What is the meaning of this fire?

The four female relatives looked at this and that strangely. The first one was Mu Yunyao, who could not hold back, covered her mouth and laughed out loud. With her head on, everyone in the room laughed out loud. For a moment, they laughed. On the contrary, Li Hong was scared just now and was about to cry with his mouth flat. Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room changed, and everyone laughed again. The child could change his emotions so quickly, so he just laughed and cried.

The room was crying and laughing, and it was a mess for a moment. Yan Ruoran hurriedly went over to comfort Li Hong, sat in the upper head, Liu Fulai smiled and said to Gu Hengbo:

"Let Butler Luo stop kneeling outside anymore. All the things and medicinal materials and items sent by the Zheng family are accepted by the accounting room. Everyone will find a yard to live in, and wait for the arrangements between the master and his wife."

Gu Hengbo got up and agreed, and ordered Butler Luo to leave through the door. Li Meng saw Li Hong crying loudly, walked over to comfort him a few times, but didn't know what to say. The women couldn't help laughing. Li Meng opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but felt that he didn't have the strength to speak, and finally laughed.

Yan Ruoran, Mu Yunyao, Gu Hengbo and Liu Rushi, these four women are indeed the best, but they know better than ordinary people whether Li Meng is lustful or not.

If Yan Ruoran had not urged him, I'm afraid Li Meng and Mu Yunyao are still brother-sister now, let alone Gu Hengbo and Liu Rushi. Li Meng is indeed a good husband, but he values ​​careers more than the enjoyment of his family. Sometimes, several female relatives chat in private and laugh at themselves, saying that others marrying first-class officials are pampered, but our husband treats the sisters as the men of the Jinyiwei and the East Factory.

Of course, the idea of ​​these women is just a happy self-deprecation.

Seeing that Li Meng, who had always been calm and majestic, was so embarrassed, the female relatives were so embarrassed, and they felt it was very interesting. This was the laughter that was carried away.

However, according to the people of the world, a warrior, and a vulgar warrior who forced Gu Hengbo and Liu Rushi back in Nanjing City, was of course lustful and sent Chen Yuanyuan to his preferences. Zheng Zhilong is a great hero in Fujian, Guangdong and South China. Although there are no beautiful women in Qinhuai who can win in quantity and have a wide variety, this is another kind of favors.

Li Meng felt embarrassed and embarrassed for a moment, but after thinking it through, he felt that this matter was nothing big, it was nothing more than a joke.

Over the years in Shandong, who can fully understand and see clearly? Let outsiders go to the trap. The old eunuch Liu Fulai had finished eating and said with a smile:

"During the day, our family gave these two girls' houses to Li Meng. I didn't expect that they would cause you so much trouble in the future. The literati of Jiangnan hated you to the core at that time!"

After saying that, he laughed, Gu Hengbo and Liu Rushi looked at each other, stood up from the chair, and gave Liu Fu a gentle and graceful salute. Liu Rushi said respectfully:

"If the old man had not had the righteous deeds of that day, how could we have the blessings of our sisters today? The old man's great kindness and virtue will be remembered and unforgettable forever."

Li Hong had already stopped crying and leaned against Liu Fulai and listened to the people around him curiously. When Liu Fulai heard the thanks from the two girls, he felt relieved, but he didn't say anything else. He pinched Li Hong's face beside him, making the child giggle.

"If so, half of these gifts are nourishing and nourishing the body, we and my uncle should have given them to my uncle. Yun Yao is still pregnant and her body is weak. Those girls, first surround themselves in the yard outside the mansion and find an opportunity to return the Zheng family!"

He had already said hello in advance. After dinner, Sun Chuanting was about to discuss matters. After Liu Fu came to have dinner, he sat aside. Several female family members took their children to the inner house. The slaves quickly cleaned up the table. Sun Chuanting had been waiting outside for a while. When he came in, he was holding a wooden board in his hand.

After entering the house, he greeted Li Meng and Liu Fu. After the servants retreated, Sun Chuanting took off the iron mask. The lights in the house were bright. He directly pulled out a large drawing from the plywood and put it on the dining table to unfold it. He took out another volume and looked at it carefully.

After Liu Fulai and Li Meng gathered, Sun Chuanting gave a tip on the map:

"Shandong would rather let go of one prefecture than the two. The south of Zhending Prefecture is exactly the barrier to the Hejian Prefecture. As long as two battalions are arranged at one place in Zaoqiang or Nangong County, the enemy can prevent the enemy from attacking the confluence from the northwest."

Before Li Meng could speak, Liu Fulai next to him was holding a magnifying glass imported from the West. He squinted his eyes and watched the place where Sun Chuanting was guiding him, and said in the jack:

"Although the minister offered a lot during the day, the Daming Mansion didn't even need to pay attention to it. At that time, Henan and Guangning Mansions are in my hands. If Daming Mansions are enclosed in it, they will be my belongings."

The two talked for a few words, but found that Li Meng had not spoken. They were a little strange. When they looked over carefully, they found that Li Meng was there with a calm face and didn't know what to think.

The quiet place in the room made Li Meng react. He looked up and looked inquiring and said:

"I thought the court was full of mediocre people, but today I talked to Wei Lequan, but I thought this person was a talent. Even though I pretended to be crazy and stupid for half a day, what I said was very reasonable!"

Liu Fulai and Sun Chuanting looked at each other, and Liu Fulai said with a smile:

"Since you think you are a talent, you have to come to Shandong to use it. The court made such a big concession, and it would not be inconsistent with your wishes on this person!"

Li Meng smiled and continued:

"It's not this, but what this person talked about now. It is said that the foundation of the strong enemy outside the pass has not been damaged, and the thieves in the Central Plains are becoming more and more powerful. These two forces, our Jiaozhou camp and they are both in the same power and fire. They are mortal enemies at any time. In one day, our Jiaozhou camp will not exist safely. The most urgent task is not to expand the territory, but to completely defeat these two strong enemies and eliminate disasters!"

When Liu Fulai and Sun Chuanting heard Li Meng's judgment, they felt horrified. Think about it carefully since December to the present, the army of Shandong and Jiaozhou have been somewhat obsessed with the atmosphere. The so-called arrogant soldiers are exactly this type, but the power in Shandong is still in those places and has not expanded much.

Even with the weakest Ming court, it was just bargaining. The real core was still Shandong, so what could be arrogant and complacent?

As the leader, Li Meng was the first to think of this, which could be regarded as the Jiaozhou Camp being pulled back from the brink of potential danger. Although the two of them thought it was right, Sun Chuanting hesitated and suggested:

"Looking at the world, the thieves, the Tartars, and the court, only the court is the weakest, but this court has the orthodox status. It is easy to start and then difficult, and it erodes the territorial population of the court, invades the great power, and is sufficient. At that time, attack the weak with strong force, and the Tartars will naturally not be worth mentioning!"

After saying this, Sun Chuanting smiled and said self-deprecatingly:

"Eating and robbing, this puts us on an unjust standpoint."

"The years are getting better and better. If the harvest comes, people will be calm and the Ming court will gradually recover. It will be inconvenient to take action at that time."

Liu Fulai also added along the way, Li Meng stood up slowly, shook his head and said:

"What can I do with such incompetent courts even if the year is good? They are just native chickens, tiles, and candids. However, the Tartars outside the pass are my biggest concerns, and I can't be at ease if I don't eliminate them!"

Seeing Li Meng's firmness, Sun Chuanting and Liu Fulai no longer argued and replied solemnly:

"The major policies and guidelines of Shandong must naturally be based on your Shandong lord's meaning."

Li Meng walked to the map, placed his hand on the Hejianfu location, as if he was stroking the map, and lined up the land to the northeast, and said solemnly:
Chapter completed!
