Xia Xun looked at this lively scene, just smiled slightly, and glanced at Xu Hu, Xu Hu understood, hurriedly handed over the official robe to his son, and followed Xia Xun away.
On the coast, the waves surged up one after another, constantly washing the coast, and Xia Xun and Xu Hu walked away slowly along the long coastline.
"Xu Dusi, there are a few things that I still have to tell you.
Although there will be a chance to say it later, I think it would be better to remind you first. ” "Please speak" Now that he has officially become a member of the imperial court, Xu Hu's attitude towards Xia Xun is more respectful than before.
Xu Hu is much more delicate than his subordinates with rough surnames, this young man in front of him is not only Guogong, they are Xia Xun's recruitment, and they have a very deep relationship with each other, from then on, Xia Xun is their big backer in the court, this dual identity, how can Xu Hu not respect him.
Xia Xun took a long breath of the sea breeze with some fishy smell and said, "This first one is your trafficking and smuggling.
Shuangyu only has a guard station, there are no civil officials, this is a good thing, you can maintain your freedom to the greatest extent, however, you have to remember, you can't be too arrogant, smuggling is to make a living, it is a last resort, but don't think that you will be an official in the future, you can do whatever you want. ” Xia Xun's expression became serious: "Before coming here, I also mentioned these things to the emperor, of course, what I said was more vague, in the emperor's mind, you are just a small fight, to earn food for the family, I would not have thought that you have such a large scale, so the emperor did not go to his heart, nor did he mention the strict prohibition." ” He stared at Xu Hu again and said: "I know that the imperial court bans the sea, and the coastal people are unwilling, from Guangdong to Liaodong, from the South China Sea to the East China Sea and the Yellow Sea, there is smuggling, if you don't do it, others will do it, and the ban is unstoppable."
That's why I want to use sparse methods, to be able to manage and control, which is better than free development.
That's why I'm fighting for your chance. ” Xu Hu said gratefully: "Yes, Guogong understands the situation here, counting all the old and young, with a population of seventy or eighty thousand, if we just rely on military salaries, we can't afford to feed so many people, and we can't grow land on this island." ” Xia Xun said "um", and said: "I know, not only the coastal people are secretly smuggling, but the coastal officials have always acquiesced and connived at your smuggling for the sake of political performance, for the people's livelihood, and in order to be able to afford the taxes collected by the imperial court.
Looking at it from another angle, it's nothing, how can you not eat the sea by the sea, and it doesn't make sense to put such a cornucopia and a cash cow and abandon it.
However, after all, this is not allowed by the imperial court, although you are the officers and soldiers stationed in Shuangyu from now on, and the people in the coastal local government are actually very careful, but it doesn't matter if you smuggle when you are a thief, you smuggle when you are a soldier, once you are caught by someone and report impeachment, then" Xu Hu also became serious: "I understand my humble duties. ” Xia Xun smiled: "You are an understanding person, you can understand a little, and I don't need to say too much."
You can handle this matter yourself, if you are really stabbed by someone and have real evidence, I will not be able to save you. ” "Yes" "The second one is the Wokou."
Xia Xun's expression also became serious: "To be a pirate is to fight and kill as a profession, and to be a soldier is also to fight and kill as a profession."
The biggest difference between the two is that what to fight pirates only needs to be for himself, and as a soldier, he must be responsible, from now on, you are here to protect, and it is no longer just you and your family that are guarding, you are a soldier of the Ming Dynasty, and you must protect the people of the Ming Dynasty.
I know that you are not afraid to fight against the Japanese people, but what I am worried about is that you or your subordinates, although they are wearing official robes, they are not in the right position, you must know that military law is ruthless, if the foreign enemy invades and the defenders do not retreat, do nothing, and sit idly by and watch the people suffer, the consequences are different from those of you as pirates.
If any of the island owners do this, you may scold him for being greedy for life and afraid of death, and for not being righteous, and break off relations with him, and if you become a soldier, whoever does this will have to take a human head and sacrifice the flag."
"Humble Understanding" "The third" Xia Xun stood still, pondered for a moment, and said: "In the past, you were pirates after all, but now you are an army of reading power, whether it is in the army or in the officialdom, there are always some mountain factions, and there must be a process of understanding and accepting you as an outsider, other guards and even your bosses."
You can't expect to get their approval right away.
Perhaps, there will be people who will make things difficult for you, and even exclude and suppress you, I hope you can bear with it, because this is also human nature, just now you were the people they were arresting, and suddenly you became your own people, and everyone has to have a process.
To contempt, to confirm hostility with military exploits, to accept with sincerity" "Guogong rest assured, since Xu Hu agreed to accept Zhao'an, he has also considered this."
"Well, you, of course I'm relieved, but those leaders under you, now they only think of the scenery, they won't realize this, I'm afraid that if something really happens, you will be instigated by them, once you betray the court and want to turn back, it will be difficult."
"Yes" Xia Xun smiled: "Hehe, of course, I don't want you to blindly endure it."
I've never agreed with the bullshit truth that forbearance turns gold, if people live without a little blood, then what kind of strength do they have to live, but they can't fight their temper, just a little bit.
If there is really a problem that cannot be solved, send someone to Beijing to find me. ” This time, Xu Hu was really moved, Xia Xun first won such a high official position for him, and then deliberately solved his worries for him, and now he can think about him so carefully, with Xia Xun's current status, do you need to be so enveloped by him If Xu Hu was a little close to Xia Xun at first, it was because the old gang leader's daughter had a close relationship with him, and later he was respectful to him and stammered because he wanted to climb this backer, but now because of these words, he is willing to follow him with all his heart.
Xu Hu said solemnly: "Guogong, please rest assured, with your words today, Xu Hu will never do anything to be sorry for you."
If something unforeseen really happens, Xu Hu will definitely listen to Guogong's words, and will never do anything decisive to come to our men on the rivers and lakes, spit is a nail, and never break his word" Xia Xun nodded happily, he could see that what Xu Hu said was psychological.
Zhu Di sounded a wake-up call to the heroes in time, and he is now ringing the alarm bell to Xu Hu in time, which is indeed out of love.
Xia Xun said: "Okay, here, you are the landlord, tonight's feast, I want you to come to Zhang Luo, I won't pull you to let go, you go to work, tonight, let's have two drinks." ” The two looked at each other and smiled, Xu Hu hugged his fist at him, and turned to leave.
Seeing that the time was still early, Xia Xun went back to his residence, as soon as he entered the yard, he saw Si Xun and Si Yang playing in the courtyard, under Xia Xun's endless gift offensive and Su Ying, thank you, Ziqi, Xiao Di and several people bombarded in turn, the two little girls have already recognized their father, especially Si Xun, after all, he is young and easy to accept, Si Yang is still a little shy and shy when he sees Xia Xun, but Si Xun has been very affectionate when he sees him.
As soon as he saw Xia Xun coming in, Si Xun immediately ran over with open arms and called sweetly: "Daddy hug" "Oh, my sweetheart" Xia Xun picked her up, kissed her on the cheek like a red apple, and looked at him with a handful of eyes, wanting to get close to the shy eldest girl, and happily walked into the house with one in one hand.
"Xianggong" Thank you for coming up, taking the little one from his arms, and entering the house together, coaxing the children for a while, letting them play while playing, thank you and said: "Xianggong, we are going back to Jinling tomorrow, for a while, I have to go to Giethoorn Island first, the eldest brother is still there, I have consulted him in advance, he doesn't want to go back, there are some things I have to arrange with the eldest brother, I am afraid that I will not be able to come back tonight." ” Xia Xun's Hidden Dragon Secret Spy Training Base is located on Giethoorn Island, Xia Xun naturally understood what she meant by the so-called arrangement, so he smiled and said: "Okay, you go, Xianggong is going to rest tonight." ” Thank you couldn't help but blush when she heard this, gave him a white look, and said coquettishly: "I thought you were beaten with iron, and it wasn't enough to catch people, hmph, you also have times when you can't do it."
Xia Xun stretched his waist and said to her: "Ye dare to ignore your father-in-law, it's still early, come, you see if this master is okay, don't run" Xia Xun stretched out his hand and didn't grab it, Xie Xian's slender waist flashed out with a twist, smiled cardably, turned back to him and grimaced: "I'm sorry, this girl is about to leave, go find your Mrs.
Ying, my lord." ” With a string of silver bell-like laughter, thank you for the slim waist, and the land of the country and the people will go.
After a few days and nights, in fact, Xia Xun was also a little tired, just joking with his beloved wife, seeing her leave, Xia Xun laughed, also stood up, just stepped out of the room, and was about to get tired of his daughter for a while, when he saw Peng Ziqi standing in her room, quietly waving to himself.
Xia Xun looked at her sneaky appearance, didn't know what was secret, saw that there was no one left and right, jumped into her room with an arrow step, and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter?"
"Xianggong" The tail note was curling, there was a strange feeling, there was a strange and dignified Peng Nuxia how to speak in this tone, Xia Xun was wary: "Hmm" "It's over" "Oh" "Oh what" Peng Ziqi's eyes widened, happy and angry: "Do you understand?"
"Understood, understood" Xia Xun nodded hurriedly, and suddenly exclaimed halfway through: "Ah understood" Peng Ziqi bit his lip lightly, his hot eyes glanced at him, rippling: "Tonight, you are mine" “” "What's the matter, reluctantly" Peng Ziqi stiffened his pretty face.
Xia Xun hurriedly said: "No, no, no, for my little lady Qiqi, I did my best for my husband, and then I died."
"That's pretty much it."
Peng Ziqi laughed "card", grabbed him and said, "Okay, let's not pester you first, let's go see Sister Ying, she doesn't seem to want to go with us." ” To be continued:
