Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    The bathing area is only separated from the bowl by a curtain.  But it is precisely because of such a curtain that everything inside is blocked, and not even a trace of cool air can enter.

    Under the guidance of the Japanese bather, Li Xiang and the others opened the curtain and walked in, their eyes instantly brightened.

    ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

    A huge hot wave rushed towards my face, and at the same time, moist white steam rolled over me.

    A large deep pit was dug in the bathing area, and then pieces of wooden boards were used to build a pool, so it could carry a lot of hot water and be used as a bathing pool.

    On the other side, there is a simple shower.

    It was actually not difficult for Zhao Hongyu to build this bathroom.

    It is enough to let the Japanese do the construction, and there is no technical content in this.  As for the shower heads and bathing pools, you can just buy them directly in the virtual world without any trouble at all.

    The boiler that boils water outside is also scrapped goods obtained from the virtual world. After all, the goods purchased from Chen Zhenbang's brother-in-law are basically such goods, and Zhao Hongyu is used to it.

    Before his own investment in scientific research institutions produces anything, it is inevitable that Chen Zhenbang and his brother-in-law will exploit him.

    As long as you get used to it, it will be fine.

    ?????????????????????????? Even these things purchased, in the virtual world, are rags that are about to be scrapped.  But in this day and age, it is also something with a high technological content.

    And it¡¯s the only one.

    "Everyone, come and take a dip. The water temperature is good now."

    Zhao Hongyu, who came in earlier than Li Xiang and the others, had already sat in the pool to take a dip.

    And the water in this pool has been changed and the pool has been cleaned, so there is no problem at all.

    Li Xiang and the others responded to Zhao Hongyu¡¯s call and entered the pool one by one.

    Phew!

    It¡¯s so comfortable!

    When they slowly sat down in the water, they couldn't help but admire it.

    At this moment, there is still heavy snow falling outside, and the temperature is already very low.

    But here, they can't feel the cold at all.

    Humid and high-temperature water vapor was billowing in the bathroom, and the sergeant who had gone to buy a bath towel walked in.

    This guy was holding a pile of bath towels in his hands, and behind him were a number of warriors who were shirtless and wearing only a pair of flat boxer briefs. These warriors were holding a lot of towels in their hands.  Eat.

    After giving the bath towel to the Japanese bather, the sergeant came behind Zhao Hongyu.

    "Your Highness, I have brought some guards. After all, His Highness's identity is extraordinary. We'd better be careful." Zhao Hongyu would not have any objections to this arrangement. After all, it was also a good intention.  So he nodded and said he had no problem with it.

    Besides, the guards who are waiting around will not disturb me.

    Therefore, there is no need to refuse at all.

    Afterwards, the sergeant said to Zhao Hongyu: "My subordinates saw that His Highness was a little bored while taking a bath, so he asked someone to bring some snacks so that His Highness could eat casually while taking a bath."

    "I'm interested." Zhao Hongyu thanked him.

    The sergeant then clapped his hands, and the guards he brought in placed some snacks beside the pool so that Zhao Hongyu could easily get them by raising his hand.

    Of course, the sergeant not only prepared these snacks for Zhao Hongyu, but also for Li Xiang and the others.

    You can¡¯t be too strict about this matter, otherwise you will be looked down upon by others.

    There are many types of snacks, all of which are Cantonese-style snacks, similar to morning tea.

    At the same time, I also got some low-alcohol wine to go with these snacks.

    "You all serve carefully, this is our Crown Prince. If the service is good, your reward will be indispensable, and don't neglect those distinguished guests."

    These Japanese bathers didn¡¯t know Zhao Hongyu¡¯s identity yet, so the sergeant reminded them.

    When they heard that among the people who came to take a bath this time, there was actually the Crown Prince of the Song Empire, these Japanese bathers suddenly became a little frightened.

    "After all, they are ordinary people. Even if they see a low-level samurai master, they will kneel on the roadside.  How often had they met someone with the status of the Crown Prince?

    ForTo us, the crown prince is like a god.

    However, after the initial panic, these Japanese bathers became excited again.

    The reason is very simple, because the sergeant said that as long as these people are served well, they will inevitably get some benefits.

    The crown prince¡¯s reward must be quite large, right?

    Well, their idea is very simple, as long as there are benefits, it will be fine.

    So, when the sergeant finished his instructions and retreated, these Japanese bathers put out all their efforts to serve Zhao Hongyu and the others.

    While taking a bath, leisurely eating snacks and slowly sipping a sip of wine, there was someone behind me squeezing my shoulders, not lightly but moderately. This was very comfortable.

    Li Xiang and the others had never enjoyed it like this before, and they were immediately addicted to it.

    Li Xiang was sitting next to Zhao Hongyu. He picked up a piece of steamed ribs with chopsticks and put it into his mouth, then took a sip of wine.  Then he closed his eyes, looking like he was enjoying himself.

    "Old Li, you go back tomorrow and bring everyone on Amami Island to Nagasaki. Now that you are the naval admiral of Kyushu, you can't let your brothers continue to suffer."

    Since I was idle anyway, Zhao Hongyu and Li Xiang started chatting.

    Li Xiang slowly put down the wine glass, and the Japanese bather behind him quickly and carefully filled it up, and then continued to massage his shoulders slowly.

    "What His Highness said is that I will go back tomorrow to pick up my brothers and family members." Li Xiang nodded. He also felt that now that the matter has been settled, he can't live here by himself and let those  The brothers must still be on tenterhooks on Amami Island.

    "But Your Highness, we have left Amami Island. Should we send some garrison troops there?" Li Xiang suddenly remembered this matter.

    Amami Island¡¯s geographical location is very special. It can be said to be the main thoroughfare in southern Kyushu, controlling the sea lanes leading to the south.  Zheng Zhilong has been peeping there, but he hasn't taken action yet.

    ¡°It would be a pity in Li Xiang¡¯s opinion to abandon Amami Island this time.

    "Once Amami Island falls into Zheng Zhilong's hands, Zheng Zhilong's power will expand again, and his troops will be directed towards Kyushu.

    Although there is another five islands to the south of Kyushu, these five islands are already the last barrier to Kyushu.

    But anyone who knows something about military affairs knows that it is most correct if defense points can be established on the periphery.

    "Well, I won't worry about this matter. You are the naval admiral of Kyushu now. So you can handle this matter yourself. However, if the troops are stationed on Amami Island, they may have to communicate with the infantry.  Okay, so you are quite busy."

    Zhao Hongyu doesn¡¯t object much to the proposal of garrisoning troops on Amami Island.

    As long as it is a proposal that is beneficial to his side, Zhao Hongyu will not object. This can be regarded as one of Zhao Hongyu's advantages.

    With Zhao Hongyu¡¯s words, Li Xiang¡¯s heart settled down.

    "Your Highness, in fact, Naha in the southern part of Amami Island was also under my control before, but it was captured by Zheng Zhilong last year." After thinking about it, Li Xiang decided to tell Zhao Hongyu about Naha.  matter.

    After all, Naha is the gateway to the southern tip of Japan, and it is also very important to Kyushu.

    It¡¯s impossible for Li Xiang not to know this.

    Although Zhao Hongyu came from another time and space, he also knew the importance of Naha very well.

    "Has Naha fallen into Zheng Zhilong's hands?"

    Hearing what Li Xiang said, Zhao Hongyu frowned slightly.

    Because he knew the importance of Naha, Zhao Hongyu could not take it lightly.

    With Naha as a stronghold, Zheng Zhilong can be said to have driven a nail in the Japanese side.

    In the future, if he likes, he can attack Kyushu and invade Kyushu waters at any time in a short period of time.

    So, this issue must be treated with caution.

    "Yes, Zheng Zhilong fought a naval battle with us last year and captured Naha forcefully." Speaking of last year's battlefield naval battle, Li Xiang's expression suddenly became sad.

    "It was this naval battle that caused me heavy losses. Moreover, even Mrs. Wang and the others became slaves of the Dutch, which really makes me feel distressed when I think about it. Fortunately, Mrs. Wang and the others were lucky enough to meet Your Highness, otherwise  ¡­¡±

    Although Li Xiang did not say the next words, Zhao HongYu also knew what this meant.

    ¡° If Zhao Hongyu hadn¡¯t been there at the time, Master Wang and the others would have definitely not ended up easy.

    Even Liu Dashen couldn¡¯t even reach America, and he would be tortured to death on the way.

    When he rescued them, Liu Dashen only had half his life left.

    Zhao Hongyu is very clear about this.

    "Zheng Zhilong and I used all our strength in that naval battle. Originally, I thought that Zheng Zhilong and I were equally matched and could handle it, but who knew that Zheng Zhilong had colluded with the Nanman people and used his identity to bribe the Dengzhou Navy Commander  Soldiers, several people joined forces to attack my family, and defeated me like this."

    Li Xiang picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp, with a hint of resentment on her sad face.

    Yes, it¡¯s not surprising that Li Xiang was so resentful about this, because he suffered heavy losses in that naval battle.

    "This matter has passed, and we have to move forward. Zheng Zhilong is just a small person in my eyes. You don't need to take it to heart. I promise that as long as you follow me for three years, we will be stronger in three years."  More than Zheng Zhilong. It is never too late for a gentleman to take revenge after ten years. You have the chance to take revenge."

    Zhao Hongyu comforted Li Xiang.

    After hearing Zhao Hongyu's words of comfort, Li Xiang thanked him a few times, and then said: "Thank you for your highness, but Li Xiang is not ignorant of current affairs. Now that Li Xiang has followed your highness, he has become a member of the Song Empire.  The people of Kyushu, the Admiral of the Navy, so many things have to be considered for the empire."

    "The matter between Zheng Zhilong and I is a grudge between dead people. Public and private matters cannot be confused. As long as Li Xiang does not infringe on our Jiuzhou's interests in the future, I will not have any conflict with him."

    Li Xiang¡¯s words not only expressed her loyalty to Zhao Hongyu, but also expressed her attitude to Zhao Hongyu. At the same time, she also told Zhao Hongyu that she was not the kind of person who does not distinguish between public and private matters.

    Zhao Hongyu picked up the wine glass and raised it to Li Xiang.

    "Don't worry too much. I have no intention of testing you. In fact, I think Zheng Zhilong will not let go of this opportunity. Is it possible that he will not take the initiative to invade our Jiuzhou?" Zhao Hongyu has already pointed out.  Li Xiang said.  "I think Zheng Zhilong will definitely come to test us, so we have plenty of opportunities to show him how powerful he is."

    "Naha must be taken back, because that place is very important to Kyushu. But I won't worry about this issue, you can handle it." Zhao Hongyu drank the wine in the glass in his hand.

    "Remember, you are mine, and your hatred is my hatred. Our experience in America tells us that only by giving a tooth for a tooth and an eye for an eye can others know how powerful you are."

    Li Xiang was very moved.

    You know, he came here only when he was desperate.

    And in this process, he still has some selfishness.

    But instead of blaming him, the crown prince happily accepted him and gave him a very important official position.  At the same time, he was also asked to command those elite battleships.

    With such trust, it is impossible for Li Xiang not to be moved.

    Especially today, he heard a meaning from the crown prince's words, that is, the crown prince would stand up for him and deal with Li Xiang.

    In fact, this can be regarded as a means to subdue him.

    But even so, Li Xiang was very grateful.

    In Li Xiang's heart, the thought that a scholar would die for his confidant came into his mind.

    In fact, Li Xiang didn¡¯t know that Zhao Hongyu wanted to deal with Li Xiang just to control the shipping lanes in Southeast Asia.

    This has nothing to do with revenge for Li Xiang.

    ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????mbps out out of focus??

    It is impossible to say that he is afraid of himself now.

    Even if Zheng Zhilong knew that Li Xiang had turned to him, he would not be afraid.

    And there is a high possibility that Zheng Zhilong will take the opportunity to attack Kyushu to see if he can make Kyushu his own.

    After all, the fact that Kyushu was ceded to the Japanese court cannot be concealed.

    When the news spreads, the only one who is staring at Jiuzhou and has the ability to peek is Zheng Zhilong.

    In other words, sooner or later, he and Zheng Zhilong will have a conflict.

    ??Zheng Zhilong doesn¡¯t know how powerful he is.Nowadays, you will definitely come to look for trouble.

    Under such circumstances, there is nothing wrong with making a promise to Li Xiang, right?

    It¡¯s just that Li Xiang doesn¡¯t know it himself.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
