    "Master, you can't! There are officers and soldiers everywhere outside now. Master, if you go out, you will be caught. All the master's hard work will be in vain. Our Fang family cannot live without the young master!" Fang Fu said tightly!  He hugged Fang Shihong tightly and refused to let go no matter how hard he struggled.  Kicked Fang Fu to the ground, Fang Shihong hammered and hit Fang Fu with red eyes, his face was soon covered with tears.  I don't know how long it took, but Fang Shihong suddenly fell backwards and fell to the ground.  His face was unusually pale, blood was flowing from the corners of his mouth, but his eyes were wide open.  "Master, Master!" Fang Fu climbed up from the ground and shouted loudly. When he felt that Fang Shihong was still breathing, Fang Fu breathed a sigh of relief.  The cave slowly fell into silence, leaving only Fang Fu's painful "shen yin" sound, and Fang Shihong's heart-rending howls from time to time.  Standing at the door of the palace gate, Emperor Tianqi looked at the gloomy sky outside, feeling a little heavy.  The atmosphere in the entire palace has been very strange in the past few days, just like the mood of Emperor Apocalypse, which affects the mood of the entire palace.  "Your Majesty, it's getting cold, put on this cloak!" Chen Hong walked out from behind, holding a big cloak in his arms, looking at Emperor Tianqi with a little worry, and said cautiously.  It¡¯s October, the weather is slowly getting cooler, and Nanjing already has a winter feel.  The north wind was blowing, and there was already a bone-chilling chill.  Putting the great cloak on his body, Emperor Tianqi looked back at Chen Hong and said in a deep voice: "Has Duke Wei read the book again? Which book is this?" "Back to the emperor. It's the third book!"  The expression on Chen Hong's face slowly faded away.  He said with a serious face.  Nodding slowly, Emperor Tianqi breathed a sigh of relief, seemed to feel a little more relaxed, and said, "Bring it to me and show it to me!" He quickly walked back, and after a while, Chen Hong came back with a copy in his hand.  memorial.  He bowed respectfully to Emperor Tianqi and said: "Your Majesty. This is the memorial of Wei Guogong. Please take a look at it." He reached out to pick up the memorial, and Emperor Tianqi slowly opened it. The content was the same as the previous two times.  It seemed that Wei Guogong also understood. His attitude became more firm and his words became more sincere every time.  Handing the memorial to Chen Hong, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Draw up the decree! Allow Wei Guogong's memorial. Nanjing's military reform asked him to hand it over to Sun Chuanting. After assisting Sun Chuanting, Wei Guogong should move to Beijing!" "Yes, Your Majesty.  !" Chen Hong was not surprised at all. This day has come long ago and everyone has been waiting for this day.  "Let the governors and governors of the seven southern provinces come to Nanjing. I want to meet these people!" Emperor Tianqi looked back at Chen Hong, with a faint smile on his face and said confidently.  Emperor Tianqi tightened his cloak, turned around and walked into the hall, with a faint smile on his face.  It was a comfortable smile.  A seemingly endless smile of comfort.  "Your Majesty, Sir Luo Sigong, Commander of the Royal Guards, would like to see you!" Chen Lin walked in from outside.  Seeing Chen Hong nodding to him, he spoke respectfully.  He frowned slightly, it had been seven days since Nanjing opened the city, but Luo Sigong still couldn't find Fang Shihong and Zhu Yousong.  This made Emperor Tianqi very dissatisfied. He wondered what Luo Sigong had come to do today.  "Let him come in!" After thinking for a moment, Emperor Tianqi ordered Chen Lin.  Not long after, Luo Sigong walked in, picked up his clothes, knelt down on the ground, and said respectfully: "Commander of the Jinyi Guards, Luo Sigong, please see the Emperor!" He waved his hand and motioned Luo Sigong to get up. Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "I don't know.  What happened to Ai Qing? But what happened to Fang Shihong? " "Your Majesty, Fang Shihong has been found, but no one has been arrested yet!" Luo Sigong said with a look of shame on his face, lowering his voice.  "Really? Let me tell you!" Emperor Tianqi didn't have much hope in his heart, so he just told Luo Sigong that I am very dissatisfied now.  Unexpectedly, Luo Sigong really found out the news and asked quickly.  Luo Sigong thought for a moment and said, "Your Majesty, Jin Yiwei's spies have tightly blocked the roads in and out of Nanjing, but there are not enough manpower. Although Mr. Sun cooperates, it is still a drop in the bucket. However, Jin Yiwei's spies have heard some news, and Fang Shihong sat down  The ship went out to sea to find the Japanese pirates! ""Japanese pirates?" Everyone in the Ming Dynasty does not know this name. The harm the Japanese pirates caused to the Ming Dynasty is still fresh in people's minds.  However, Emperor Tianqi knew in his heart that there were no Japanese pirates now, but only pirates. In the words of the Ming Dynasty, they were pirates.  Calculating the time, it seems that Zheng Zhilong and others are about to get up at this time. This is why Emperor Tianqi is so anxious.The reason for establishing the navy.  It can be said that we have fallen behind in overseas colonization now. If we don't catch up, we may not have the opportunity in the future.  Fortunately, it's not too late. After looking at Luo Sigong, Emperor Tianqi said with a hint of ridicule: "Luo Sigong, do I trust you?" "Sincerely, let's replace it with a national scholar!" Luo Sigong quickly said, there can be no questions on this issue.  Without the slightest hesitation, he raised his head and looked at Emperor Tianqi resolutely.  "Then why do you use such words to fool me? Do you really think that I am confused? Fang Shihong went to find the Japanese pirates. What do you think of me? How dare you deceive me like this!" Emperor Tianqi seemed very angry and stared straight at Luo Sigong.  Now Luo Sigong was a little confused, with disbelief on his face. Where did Emperor Tianqi start from saying this?  However, he still knelt on the ground and said loudly: "Your Majesty represents your country as a soldier, and I should repay you as a country's soldier. I dare not deceive the emperor even if I die. My loyalty to the emperor can be seen in the sun and the moon!" "Okay, don't do it!  It's ridiculous to say this. You said that Fang Shihong went to find Japanese pirates. I ask you, are there still Japanese pirates on the coast of Ming Dynasty? " Emperor Tianqi stared at Luo Sigong and said with dissatisfaction on his face.  Hearing Emperor Tianqi¡¯s words, Luo Sigong¡¯s heart sank, and he immediately understood what the problem was.  After thinking for a while, he quickly explained: "Your Majesty, the humble minister made a mistake! Fang Shihong did not go to find the Japanese pirates, but went to sea to become a pirate. Fang Shihong had colluded with the pirates for a long time. Now that Ming Dynasty has no way to survive, he went to sea to become a pirate.  It's a gangster." "You Jin Yiwei are really good at letting someone escape from under your nose!" Emperor Tianqi nodded, agreeing with Luo Sigong's words, but he was still dissatisfied with Luo Sigong's ability to do things.  "Your Majesty, I forgive you, but I am incompetent!" Luo Sigong couldn't shirk it, so he quickly and respectfully admitted his mistake.  After waving his hands, Emperor Tianqi said in a deep voice: "Okay, now that things have reached this point, it is meaningless to say these words. I will give you Jin Yiwei a task. You can handle this matter well. I will not hold you accountable.  "I thank the Emperor for his kindness. No matter what I do, I will try my best to complete it." Luo Sigong was immediately overjoyed. This was the opportunity given by Emperor Tianqi to make up for his mistakes.  However, Luo Sigong also knew in his heart that if things went wrong this time, he would never have a chance again.  "Send the Jin Yiwei people to find out the situation of the pirates. I want to know what forces the pirates have and what the strength of each force is. I also need to find out the entanglements between these pirates and find out which pirate Fang Shihong is in."  , find it for me!" Emperor Tianqi looked at Luo Sigong and asked, "Can it be done?" "This task is not easy, but Luo Sigong knew that he had no choice, but he did not dare to agree to it.  Frowning, he thought for a while and said, "Your Majesty, this matter may not be that easy. Jinyiwei has no spies in this area, so it is necessary to redeploy manpower and rearrange it." Looking at Luo Sigong with satisfaction, Emperor Tianqi nodded with a smile,  Said: "It's like doing something, go ahead! Do this job well, I allow you to recruit people to do this job well. In Jinyiwei, list a thousand overseas households separately, go and do it!"  "Thank you, Your Majesty. I will definitely not disappoint Your Majesty!" Luo Sigong's face immediately put on a happy face and he said respectfully.  "Okay, let's stop talking about these words and do something practical!" Emperor Tianqi was really impatient with such words. He waved his hand and motioned Luo Sigong to go out!  Although he was kicked out by Emperor Tianqi, Luo Sigong's face did not show any signs of depression, but more excitement.  Xiamen, a city started in the 20th year of Hongwu's reign, is known as the gate to the country's edifice, hence the name Xiamen.  Xiamen is under the jurisdiction of Quanzhou Prefecture. After more than two hundred years of development, it has already become a big city.  Although he has experienced troubles from Japanese pirates, he has recovered his strength over the years.  In the east city of Xiamen, there is the Li Mansion, which looks like a wealthy local businessman.  The mansion occupies a large area and is very prosperous.  Many people know that this is the residence of Li Dan, a wealthy businessman in Xiamen.  This morning, two young people came to the door of Li Mansion. The young man in charge was only seventeen or eighteen years old, but he showed the rare shrewdness and ability of young people.  His gaze is also very deep, not at all immature like his peers.  The man behind him is older, muscular, dark-skinned, and has sharp eyes.  The hands are covered with calluses and the fingers are very wide. Anyone who knows the business will definitely be able to tell that this person is a boat person.  Although the imperial court has explicitly prohibited people from privately building ships and going to the sea, going to the sea is actually not a confidential matter.  ¡°Official, I don¡¯t know if Mr. Li is in the mansion or not. I hope our visit will not be in vain!¡± Cheng Yu looked at the gate of Li¡¯s Mansion in front of him, then looked at the young people beside him, and said with a smile.    Both of them looked tired. It was not very comfortable after walking for such a long time.  Zheng Yiguan said with a smile: "My godfather should be at home. He will not go to Japan at this time! Okay, stop talking, let's go in!"
