Chapter 157: Meeting Old Bear Again
Seeing that all his little brothers had arrived ashore safely, the boat rowed back, Gao Shixin told Yan Siqi: "Uncle Yan, my cannon casting method has taught your craftsmen. I am going to kill Jiannu and serve the country. I hope you can change your mind next time you meet again! There will be a date in the future!"
After saying that, Gao Shixin put the knife on Yan Siqi's neck and walked onto the deck. Taking advantage of the sailors on the boat's inattention, he suddenly jumped into the sea.
Several sailors picked up the bird guns and were about to fire in the water, but Yan Siqi stopped him: "Don't open the gun! Let him go, this person has no intention of hurting us."
In fact, even if the bird gun fired, it would not be able to hit Gao Shixin who had already dived into the water. He had thought that his water quality was only slightly stronger than that of ordinary people. Last time he saved the saint of the White Lotus Sect, he didn't think that he was very good at water quality. But this time he jumped into the sea, he felt that he had become a dolphin, drilled into the bottom of the water, and swam to the shore in one breath. It was more than a mile from the boat to the shore, but he actually swam there in one breath. It was so magical.
Seeing Gao Shixin drilling out of the shore a mile away, Yan Siqi was also shocked: "The water is so good! It's just a pity that he refused to follow us, but he wanted to go back to serve his hopeless court!"
"Gangmaster, this may be loyal." said a sailor.
"It's foolish loyalty!" Yan Siqi snorted coldly.
Gao Shixin climbed onto the shore and ran quickly to his brothers. He was worried that after he got ashore, the pirates fired fire at him, so he had to leave the beach as soon as possible, and the farther he could get safer.
Soon he ran into the woods, and the brothers walked inside and waited for him to come back.
When he saw his brothers, Gao Shixin bowed to Cai Jiuyi and the others and said, "Brothers, I'm back!"
I checked the things I brought back, including sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, peppers and tomato seeds, as well as more than 100 high-quality bird guns and ammunition I brought back.
"There are all things, take out my clothes and let me change them." said Gao Shixin.
Cai Jiuyi opened Gao Shixin's bag, took out the embroidered spring sword, flying fish suit, wingless black gauze hat and other items, and replaced it with Gao Shixin. After a while, a majestic Jinyiwei Qianhu, wearing a wingless black gauze hat and a big red flying fish suit, appeared in front of him.
After changing his clothes, Gao Shixin raised his hand: "Brothers, let's go! Go to Liaoyang!"
More than 20 people carried thousands of kilograms of things. If there were no car to transport them, I would not know when I would go to Liaoyang by carrying them. But it was okay, not far ahead was Jinzhou Guard.
However, it took only five miles to go, Gao Shixin and the others who carried heavy objects on their backs for a whole hour! If it were normal, it would take only a quarter of an hour to walk five miles.
When he arrived at the Jinzhou Acropolis, Gao Shixin walked up with his Jinyiwei costume, raised his head and shouted, "Brothers inside, please open the door quickly, let us brothers go in and take a rest and drink water."
The door opened, how could these military households in the garrison dare to disrespect the Jinyiwei? Seeing that an Jinyiwei came, they hurriedly opened the city gate and put Gao Shixin and a group of people behind them in.
The hundred-house officers stationed in the city were greeted. The distance was closer. Gao Shixin recognized it. The hundred-house officer was Zhang Pan! It turned out that in the last battle to restore Fushun Pass, Zhang Pan made great contributions. Xiong Tingbi made an exception and promoted Zhang Pan three levels in a row, directly from a soldier to a hundred-house officer.
"Congratulations, brother!" Gao Shixin smiled and patted Zhang Pan on the shoulder.
"So it's Brother, you are here. How could you come up from the south?" Zhang Pan asked curiously.
Gao Shixin explained in detail the story of his return from Fujian on a pirate ship, but he just concealed the reason why he went to Fujian. He did not say that he had gone to Fujian, but said that he went to Zhejiang to work in business and happened to meet pirates. When he came back, he took the pirate ship.
"I wonder if there are big cars here, brother? It's really difficult to carry so many things on our shoulders. If we don't have a car to transport them, I'm afraid we won't be able to walk to Liaoyang for three months.
"Of course there!" Zhang Pan replied quickly, "Brother, you stayed here for lunch today and set off after dinner."
Since it was Zhang Pan's treat, Gao Shixin did not be polite to him, but agreed happily, so he brought a group of starving ghosts to reincarnate little brothers and let go of food at the home of a hundred officers in Jinshanwei.
After lunch, Gao Shixin said goodbye to Zhang Pan.
Zhang Pan sent five big trucks and ten horses to Gao Shixin, and gave them a large bag of food.
After leaving Jinshanwei, Gao Shixin led this small team to Liaoyang.
When he arrived in Liaoyang, Gao Shixin rushed to see Xiong Tingbi who was impeached by the ministers in the court and almost pretended to be a deceased person. After entering the city, he headed straight to the official residence.
At the entrance of the Guadi, Gao Shixin showed the jade waist sign and the guards put him in.
"Sister-in-law Xiong!" When he saw the old Xiong, Gao Shixin saluted him respectfully.
Xiong Tingbi laughed loudly and reached out to help Gao Shixin up: "I heard that my nephew had gone to the south for business, why did he come to me again?"
"The younger generation came back from the south by boat, but they were worried about Mr. Xiong, so they went ashore from Jinzhou and came to Liaodong to visit Mr. Xiong."
"You boy is kind! But you don't have to worry about my safety. I heard that when Your Majesty was seriously ill, he was concerned about the war in Liaodong! All the memorials impeached Xiong were blocked by Your Majesty! "When you caught it, tears appeared in the old Xiong's eyes. He knelt towards the capital, and said in a trembling cry, "Your Majesty, you are as kind as a mountain to me, I can only pacify Liaodong and serve you!"
In the original time and space, after Wanli's death, Xiong Tingbi was squeezed out of Liaodong by Yao Zongwen and the Donglin Party, and the situation in Liaodong quickly deteriorated. This can only be blamed for Zhu Changluo who believed in the Donglin Party too much, so that he only became the emperor for only one month. As a result, the court was completely controlled by the Donglin Party. Even Wei Yan was suppressed by the Donglin Party and was breathless. It was not until the fourth year of the Tianqi period that Nine Thousand Years turned defeat into victory and defeated the Donglin Party to pieces.
Although Gao Shixin had to join the eunuch party because of his cheap uncle Jiu Qiansui, he still believed in his heart that most of the Donglin Party were good people, and bad people were a minority after all, such as Li Sancai, Ye Xianggao, the water was too cold, and Wang Wenyan.
Thinking of Yao Zongwen, Gao Shixin reminded: "Mr. Xiong, I have received internal news. Didn't Zhou Yongchun resign as the governor of Liaodong and go home? The court may send Yao Zongwen to Liaodong. Mr. Xiong, you must not have a quarrel with Yao Zongwen!"
"Bah!" Xiong Tingbi was furious, "Yao Zongwen? Just that greedy guy? If he came to Liaodong, I would not give him any face! Don't think that I don't know about the little thing between him and the Mongols! This thief is extremely bold. It would be fine if you say you are greedy. How many officials in the Ming Dynasty are not greedy? But he also takes the money he should take, and he has no scruples about the money he should not take! If this guy comes to Liaodong, I will ignore him when I am in a good mood; if I am in a bad mood, I will just look at him!"
Gao Shixin was shocked: Old Xiong's hot temper, as long as Wanli is gone, even if Zhang Yong and Jiu Qiansui help, as long as the Tianqi has not yet come to power, anyone will be versatile! Thinking of this, Gao Shixin hurriedly advised: "Stop being angry! The younger generation knows that Mr. Xiong is jealous of evil, but Jiannu has not yet been destroyed, so I hope Mr. Xiong will endure it!"
Xiong Tingbi said angrily: "I can't stand it if I let this rat race be with me!"
Not to mention that era, even in later generations, people like Lao Xiong would not survive in the officialdom for a single episode! At this time, Emperor Wanli would have saved Lao Xiong from death, otherwise he would have died long ago.
Thinking of this, Gao Shixin said to Xiong Tingbi: "Mr. Xiong, I will go back to the capital for a few days first, and I will return to Liaodong to help you in a few days!"
