Chapter 408 High-spirited

In He Qiaoyuan's view, if the emperor changed his mind and agreed to impose a sea ban under the influence of the new chief minister, he should have officially conveyed the imperial edict and announced it to the world.

However, this time the messenger angel only visited in a private capacity, which made He Qiaoyuan very worried. It wasn't that he was afraid that the emperor would punish him. Anyway, he didn't have many years to live, so what else could he do with just such an old bone? What he cares about is whether he can see the light of day before he dies after worrying about the sea ban for so many years.

If the sea ban can be lifted, it will have a great impact on the Fujian people. Many people will have an extra way of living and an additional source of money. Going further, the sea ban will also be beneficial to the court. only……

He Qiaoyuan couldn't help but sigh when he thought of this. No one dares to take responsibility for the establishment of a maritime ban for fear of affecting their official career. Those individuals are all short-sighted and short-sighted!

He sighed, and at the same time he also expected that there would be no good news this time. He was probably here to remind himself tactfully not to cause trouble to the court, right?

"Go, meet the guests in the lobby!" After He Qiaoyuan ordered the housekeeper, although he had no expectations, he still tidied up his appearance and went to the lobby.

What he didn't expect was that as soon as the messenger angel saw his appearance, he immediately stood up from his seat, with a smile on his face, and bowed respectfully: "I am here to pay homage to the old master on the order of the master! "

This attitude stunned He Qiaoyuan. After he came to his senses, he asked curiously: "I wonder who your master is?"

"He is the current chief minister." After the messenger answered, he immediately took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it with both hands, "Here is a letter written by the master, please read it!"

When He Qiaoyuan heard this, he seemed to have thought of something and became excited. The hands that went to pick up the letter were trembling slightly. Won’t the wish I’ve had for many years come true?

After getting the letter, he quickly opened it and read it without bothering to call the messenger angel. After a while, the hand holding the letter began to tremble more and more. His gaze moved from right to left until he reached the end of the letter. Then he immediately turned around and read it again from left to right. After reading it three times in a row, he raised his head and stared blankly at the angel who was delivering the message. He seemed to be still... I can't believe this is true!

Opening the sea ban, opening the sea ban, after many efforts on his part, and after changing the chief minister, the emperor finally changed his previous attitude and greatly appreciated the opening of the sea ban. This is really a great joy, it is really a great joy. !

"Sir, won't you reply to this letter?" Seeing that he was in a daze, the messenger angel reminded him in a low voice with a smile.

When he said this, He Qiaoyuan came to his senses, nodded immediately, and said repeatedly: "Back, back, right away!"

After saying that, he turned around and left, preparing to go to the study to write a reply. However, after walking a few steps, he came back to his senses. He immediately turned around and smiled awkwardly at the messenger angel, and then loudly called for the butler to come and serve the guests.

When he was about to turn around and leave again, the angel who delivered the message spoke again, reminding him in a low voice: "When I first came here, I heard that Zheng Zhilong, the coastal defense guerrilla, was leading the navy to go to Annan for work!"

He Qiaoyuan's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he turned to look at the angel who was delivering the message. He was even more happy when he saw him nodding his head to confirm. When he turned around again, his steps were brisk, as if he was many years younger.

He Qiaoyuan actually knew everything about Wen Tiren's letter asking about the difficulties of establishing a maritime ban. The biggest difficulty is that the imperial court does not have a strong naval force. Nowadays, Zheng Zhilong's family is the only one on the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty.

When he wrote the memorial before, the sea was almost dominated by three pillars. Therefore, in his memorial, he chose Zheng Zhilong as the representative of the imperial court, probably because Zheng Zhilong was a better person than Li Kuiqi, and Hongyi was impossible to consider.

But at the moment, he is optimistic that Zheng Zhilong's family will become the biggest obstacle to the establishment of a maritime ban. Because in the future, who will benefit the most from the establishment of a sea ban? There is no doubt that it is Zheng Zhilong who controls the sea.

At this time, before he had time to think about how to solve this biggest problem, he heard that Zheng Zhilong was ordered to go to Annan. It seems that the imperial court also expected to transfer him so that it would be easier for him to launch a sea ban!

When he walked to the study and sat down, picking up a brush in one hand to write, there was only one person left in He Qiaoyuan's mind, and that was Xiong Wencan, the current governor of Fujian. If possible, it would be best if the court could transfer this person.

After thinking about the wording for a while, He Qiaoyuan immediately started writing "shushuashushushushuashuashu", showing three pages of stationery, which he wrote in one breath. After reading it through again, I dried the ink, was stunned again, and finally put it away carefully.

When everything was done, He Qiaoyuan's heart suddenly calmed down for some reason. He was no longer in a hurry, and sat on the Taishi chair, leaning back and staring at the letter on the table. After a while, he stood up calmly with a firm face, picked up the letter on the table, and walked out slowly and steadily.

After the letter was handed over to the angel who carried the message, He Qiaoyuan said confidently: "Tell the chief minister and the emperor that although I am old, I am still young, so if I do this, I will definitely be able to do it!"

There was such a strong confidence in his words that the messenger angel was stunned, and then he was filled with admiration.

Soon, big moves began to take place in Fujian, but whether it was the mobilization of the navy or He Qiaoyuan's preliminary activities, these did not affect the slightest bit in Shanxi.

At this time, Wu Xiang, the commander-in-chief and uncle of Datong in Shanxi Province, was in high spirits, holding a whip in hand, and surrounded by generals, strategizing for a decisive victory thousands of miles away.

"Report, our troops have defeated the bandits and returned to their base. We are pursuing the remaining troops."

"Report, our troops defeated the bandits of King Sao Di and beheaded more than 300 people."

"Report, our troops defeated the bandit king Chuang's troops and beheaded more than 400 of them."

"..."

When Wu Xiang heard the continuous victories, he laughed happily and said: "The combat power of these bandits cannot be compared with the Jianlu. Our army is in a state of disastrous strength. It seems that these bandits in Jin will be defeated soon!"

"Your Majesty is so powerful that the thieves will flee immediately upon hearing your siren's flag!" The trusted generals nearby laughed and flattered him.

Wu Xiang laughed loudly, stroking his beard and said, "It seems that the fortunes of our Wu family have turned out well. Not only has my son been promoted to the rank of commander-in-chief, but my own officer has also been granted a title with ease. Now we are getting good news one after another, and we can make great achievements. You think, if the emperor just I'm glad, if I want to be granted the title of Marquis by Lun Gong, is it because I was promoted too quickly and should I decline it?"

"Sir, your merits are real and you deserve to be granted the title of Marquis!"

"Yes, the bandits are poisoning the Jin Dynasty. As soon as the Lord arrives, he will destroy them independently. With such a great achievement, it is time for him to be granted the title of Marquis!"

"..."

"Hahaha..." Wu Xiang was very happy and immediately drove his horse and whipped his horse and said, "Let's go and see the soldiers' achievements!"
