Crowned with Pearls - Chapter 1290
Pang Qingping is a very calm person. After all, he is a senior official of the frontier, and he is used to seeing big scenes. Even if the court is swaying, there is no way to take him easily. , I have seen any scene.
But some things can only be said by the results.
For example, what happened this time is like this. Pang Qingping has thousands of ways, but it is an indisputable fact that these recruits are not up to par, and it is useless if the immortals come.
He sighed helplessly.
Xiao Heng was also a little surprised that was able to force him like this. On the way here, Xiao Heng also discussed with Mr. Cui and the others. Now that he heard Pang Qingping say this, he asked, “Is it a training issue?”
Pang Qingping couldn’t help but smile bitterly: “If it’s just a training issue, that’s fine, but the head coach has changed so much, it’s useless. It’s hard to explain in a word. You can find out when your Highness inspects the barracks.”
Because he knew Xiao Heng’s temperament, Pang Qingping did not arrange any official banquets. He has always been very adaptable in handling affairs. If the envoy who came here was someone else, he would naturally not be stingy about this, but the one who came was Xiao Heng, then these are unnecessary.
However, Sun Yongning also came, and Pang Qingping also specially rectified a banquet reception.
Su Yao has been on the boat for several days, and until now, she still feels swaying, as if she can’t step on the bottom, and she doesn’t want to deal with the ladies in the officialdom. Pang Qingping didn’t arrange these banquets, but it was right in the middle. She let out a sigh of relief.
Xiao Heng knew her very well, and touched her head with a smile: “You have been tired all the way, you should rest first, and I will take you to walk on the street tomorrow. People say that there is heaven in the sky and Suzhou and Hangzhou in the bottom, which can be seen in Hangzhou. How rich and beautiful, since you have come here, of course you have to take a good walk.”
Su Yao agreed with a smile, but she was indeed very sleepy. After she was done grooming, she fell asleep as soon as she touched the bed.
She slept in a daze for an unknown amount of time, when she suddenly heard movement around her, she couldn’t help but open her eyes and sat up.
Xiao Heng was putting on his clothes, and when he heard the words, he said softly, “It’s alright, you continue to sleep, I’ll go out and have a look.”
The lights outside the house were bright, and it seemed that something had happened. Su Yao couldn’t sleep, shook his head and got up, asking, “What’s going on?”
Xiao Heng frowned: “I don’t know yet, I’ll go out and have a look, I just heard what the emergency report is.”
He said, he had already packed up, and when Su Yao also put on the big cloak, he led Su Yao out the door.
When the three provinces and others were all there, Xiao Heng immediately asked, “What happened?”
Three Provinces looked very serious: “Your Highness, I just got news that a group of Japanese pirates plundered hundreds of people in Ningbo, and also killed Liu Suping, the commander of the Japanese military, and Wang Zhong, the censor.”
Xiao Heng’s expression changed.
Su invite also frowned.
This is the first day they came, and such a big thing happened!
Xiao Heng raised his eyebrows and glanced at Su Yao: “You Yao, you go back first, I’m going to the Governor’s Mansion.”
After such a big thing happened, since Xiao Heng has come to Zhejiang, he must take care of it to the end, but now it is late at night, it is obviously not suitable to take Su Ying over there, so he asked Su Ying to stay in the other hall first.
Su responded with an invitation. After Xiao Heng left, he stood there and pondered for a moment, then ordered San Sheng, “Go and find Lord Hou for me, and see if Lord Hou is here now.”
Su Rong came to Zhejiang first. He should know a lot about the situation in Zhejiang. Su invites to ask what the situation in Zhejiang is now.
Why the Japanese pirates are so provocative, they can chase these officers and soldiers of Dazhou everywhere.
It is no wonder that the courtiers have been talking about it. The construction of the navy has been so long, and it has not seen any results. On the contrary, the people of the East are more and more rampant. How can these civil servants bear it.
Three Provinces hurriedly agreed, and went back after a while, whispering to Su Yao, “Concubine Taisun, when the accident happened, Lord Hou was stationed at the side, and I heard that Lord Hou went to chase the gang of Japanese pirates.”
Su invites to think that Su Rong was not seen among the officials who came to greet him before. At that time, she thought that Su Rong was on official business, but she did not expect that Su Rong went to Ningbo for patrol!
She was a little worried for a while.
Those Japanese pirates in Dongying were not afraid of death. Usually, they would fight one against ten. Although she knew that Su Rong’s martial arts were also extremely strong, she still couldn’t help worrying about it.
On the other hand, he remembered the situation on Xiao Heng’s side.
She didn’t sleep all night, and she was relieved when Xiao Heng came back the next morning.
Xiao Heng knew that she hadn’t slept all night when he saw her appearance, and he was a little distressed: “So you don’t have to worry about me, you have been on the road for so long, why don’t you know how to take good care of your body?”
Su Yao gave him a pleading look: “You haven’t come back, how can I sleep? Besides, I heard that my brother also went to Ningbo to chase the Japanese pirates”
Xiao Heng had no way to take her, so he hugged her in his arms to warm her hands, and then said, “The Japanese pirates have already been in Ningbo, you know, after the imperial court banned the sea, several famous names in Dongying They all wrote to ask for the resumption of trade. Didn’t the envoys go to the capital to marry the princess? These Dongying people in Ningbo came at the same time. The mission of the mission in the capital suddenly jumped over the wall and killed more than 70 people in the post house, and then cooperated with the Japanese pirates at sea to kidnap thousands of people!”
Su Yao’s face was even colder: “The matter of the Dongying embassy is not a day or two. They don’t attack sooner or later, but they have to wait until we are here before they openly attack? What’s more, to contact the accomplices at sea, I’m afraid it’s not something that can be done in a day or two, it’s clearly premeditated for a long time! They deliberately gave us a slap in the face.”
Xiao Heng naturally knew that he patted Su Yao’s back soothingly: “Pang Qingping said the same thing, but it’s not worth it, after all, Japanese pirates have always repeated that villains are untrustworthy, but it is our own officers and soldiers. Vulnerable! To be humiliated like this on your own territory is simply shameful!”
is too embarrassing, it is a great shame!
Xiao Heng was extremely dissatisfied with these officers and soldiers, and was also very disappointed with these coastal defenses in Zhejiang.
No wonder that Japanese pirates invade every year, no wonder that Japanese pirates are incessant, the coastal defense is so loose, the officers and soldiers do not want to make progress, how can the people feel at ease? !
He couldn’t help but scold.
Su invite can understand his anger.
