"Brother, you~, do you really want to do this?" Li Yuanqing looked calmly but sharply into Chen Zhong's eyes.

"Yuan Qing, isn't this, this damn guy forced by that bitch Yuan Manzi? Since he is unkind, then we have no choice but to be unjust!"

Chen Zhong shook his head like a child and punched the table hard with his big hand.

Even though the table was made of fine mahogany, it still made a muffled sound, which shows the strength of Chen Zhong's punch.

As an 'aboriginal' who has been influenced by traditional Confucian culture since childhood and has been in a high position for many years, Chen Zhong naturally knows the consequences of doing so.

If the situation had not truly reached a point where he had no choice, he would naturally not be willing to take this step.

A faint smile slowly appeared on the corner of Li Yuanqing's mouth, "Brother, let me tell you a story."

"story?"

Chen Zhong couldn't help but look at Li Yuanqing in surprise.

Li Yuanqing smiled: "That's right. It's a story. Brother, this story is very simple. If you directly demolish the foundation of an old house that has been in disrepair, it will inevitably cause collapse, and injuries to people are inevitable. But~,

You have to be careful when sewing and mending, although it will still leak some wind and rain, but~, it can cover most of the wind and rain."

"Yuan Qing, this, this is..."

Chen Zhong had vaguely understood what Li Yuanqing meant, but he still missed the mark.

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother, think about it. Even you~~ have to hesitate and consider this kind of thing, but what about the brothers below? That's right! The brothers under our command are all brought out by us, and they work with us

We are all in the same boat. But~, brother, have you ever thought that once things change, we lose our righteousness. Will they still be as devoted to us as they are now?"

At this time, Chen Zhong had completely grasped Li Yuanqing's main plot, and said hurriedly: "Yuanqing, you~, you mean, the Ming Dynasty has not lost its morality at this time?"

Li Yuanqing smiled and nodded, "That's right. Big brother, you are the first to shoot. Although the roots of you and me are solid, but~, they are not as solid as we imagined. Big brother, do you know the reason?"

Chen Zhong took a deep breath of his cigar and already understood what Li Yuanqing meant, "Yuanqing, our current population and land are still too small. Especially, most of our income comes from commerce and maritime trade. But if we go

We can't do this kind of thing by robbing the common people... Indeed, I am still a little too impatient! But, Yuan Qing, can we, can we really get to the last step?"

Although Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong have known each other for ten years, and they are like brothers and sisters, but at this time, this is the first time that Li Yuanqing and Chen Zhong have spoken out about this topic publicly.

Chen Zhong's voice was trembling with his last words.

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "Brother, as big as your heart is, the world will be as broad as it is. If the emperor is benevolent and righteous, the people live and work in peace and contentment, and the world is rich and peaceful, you and I will pacify the Tartars, disarm and return to the fields, and raise hundreds or thousands of darling wives and concubines.

Sitting on tens of thousands of dollars in fertile land is a beautiful thing. But~, brother, if the emperor is unjust and won't tolerate our brothers, how can we still hold our hands and capture them?"

Chen Zhong immediately fully understood Li Yuanqing's meaning, and he couldn't help but nodded heavily, his voice suddenly hoarse, "Yuan Qing, no matter what you choose, I will always stand by your side. Life, we are born together."

.Death~, let’s die together!”

Li Yuanqing laughed loudly: "Brother, if that day comes! I, Li Yuanqing, swear to God that I will protect you, brother, for everlasting glory! Even if we lose, brother, I, Li Yuanqing, can guarantee that I will die in battle. In front of you!"

"Yuanqing..."

Chen Zhong burst into tears. For a moment, he wiped them away with all his strength, but then grabbed Li Yuanqing's lapel and said fiercely: "Yuan Qing, remember, in the future, in front of my brother, I will never allow you to say this." Such words. Even if you really become the emperor, brother, I will never allow you to say such words again! If you really want to die in battle, how can you hide behind your brother? Who wants the lives of our brothers~, Then they have to pay with their lives!!"

Li Yuanqing laughed loudly, but his eyes were a little blurry for a while, and he quickly changed the subject and said: "Brother, okay, why are you talking about these unpleasant things? Even if Yuan Manzi wants to visit Changsheng Island, it is not a big deal that the sky is falling. Our Changsheng Island is a commercial society, and everything is run on a business model. Yuan Manzi is willing to spend money on the island, which is also a good thing for us, isn't it?"

Chen Zhong also calmed down a little at this time and said hurriedly: "Yuan Qing, you, are you really not afraid that Yuan Manzi will find flaws on the island and come to blackmail us?"

Li Yuanqing smiled: "Brother, I'm afraid. I'm afraid too. However, if we are afraid, will Yuan Manzi stop? What he should do will definitely happen! Instead of us being frightened and unhappy, how about~, let's make preparations in advance, Be on guard against his attacks!"

Chen Zhong couldn't help but be overjoyed and said hurriedly: "Yuan Qing, do you have a good idea?"

Li Yuanqing smiled and said: "There is no good way at the moment. However, brother, I have a way to keep us in an invincible position!"

"any solution?"

Chen Zhong said hurriedly.

"Haha. Brother, it's very simple. Let him come in any way, I will only go all the way."

"Well?"

Chen Zhong was stunned for a moment, but found that he couldn't keep up with Li Yuanqing's thinking, and hurriedly said: "Yuan Qing, this is..."

Li Yuanqing did not hide it, and explained with a smile: "Brother, the target of Yuan Manzi's trip is not us, but the Marshal and Dongjiang. He has no reason to pick on us and break up with us at this time. Furthermore, we will serve him with good food and drink. If he really wants to come to the underworld, brothers will know it. Furthermore, Liaoxi, the court, and the emperor are not blind."

Li Yuanqing had actually gotten to the core of Governor Yuan at this time.

The reason why Governor Yuan wanted to stay on Changsheng Island at this time and delay for time is probably to wait for the information from Western Liaoning about his inspection, or talks, to be sent to all parts of Liao.

However, Li Yuanqing could not tell Chen Zhong about this matter at this time.

At this time, hearing that Li Yuanqing was already making plans, Chen Zhong relaxed a little and said hurriedly: "Yuanqing, that's good. You know what's going on, and my brother feels at ease. By the way, I have something else to do." , I have always wanted to ask you. Before, you, how could you dare to say such words to Governor Yuan as 'defend the enemy and stay outside the home'? You~, aren't you afraid of Yuan Manzi's ugly fall?"

"Haha. Brother, why am I not afraid? I am very afraid. However, I have captured one of Yuan Manzi's core."

"Core? What core?"

Chen Zhong looked at Li Yuanqing hurriedly, waiting for Li Yuanqing to answer his questions.

Li Yuanqing smiled faintly: "Brother, you don't know how conceited Yuan Manzi's temper is. Changsheng Island does not have a completely defensive stronghold except various military camps and forts. Yuan Manzi is not stupid, so he can't guess it.

Am I 'bragging'?"

"Well?"

Chen Zhong couldn't help but was stunned for a moment. He simply never dreamed of Li Yuanqing's twists and turns...

For a moment, Chen Zhong couldn't help but laugh and shook his head: "Yuan Qing, you are so stupid. I'm afraid~, this time, Yuan Manzi will have to eat ashes at our feet."

…………

The night is already quite dark.

The gentle sea breeze blows in your face, bringing out the slightest bit of refreshing coolness, but it also makes the leaves nearby rustle.

In the temporary military camp, Governor Yuan stood under a ginkgo tree as thick as a bowl, quietly playing with a string of delicate Buddhist beads in his hand, but there was no trace of sleepiness in his mind.

Today, although he did not enter Changsheng Island City, on the top of Zhongyi Peak, he could see the structure and layout of the entire Changsheng Island City very clearly.

Even though Governor Yuan was very cold towards Li Yuanqing deep down in his heart, he always thought that Li Yuanqing was the most despicable and cunning person, full of the meanness and cunning of the lowest level of people.

Especially Li Yuanqing's words of "defend the enemy and stay outside the home", Governor Yuan almost couldn't hold back at that time.

If he hadn't taken the overall situation into consideration, he would have turned against Li Yuanqing at that time.

‘How dare a humble military attaché dare to discuss important military and state affairs? If word spreads, where will Commander Yuan’s face go?’

But at this time~~, after witnessing the prosperity, order, and even freedom of Changsheng Island with his own eyes, Governor Yuan's heart was filled with... a lot of unspeakable thoughts.

Even though Governor Yuan really didn't want to admit it, at this time, the prosperity of Changsheng Island, especially the booming popularity, had already widened the gap with the Ningyuan City that he supervised and built...

Governor Yuan really couldn't understand. He was a dignified official of the imperial court. He had been familiar with history books since he was a child and had experience in hundreds of schools. In terms of financial resources, Ningyuan City had the support of the entire Ming Dynasty. In terms of manpower, he, Yuan, was in charge of the entire Ji.

The power of the Liao Dynasty, in terms of talents, qualifications, and prestige, no matter what aspect, can Li Yuanqing, a lowly mud-legged person, be compared with Yuan?

But~~, the reality is so cruel.

At this time, Ningyuan City compared with Changsheng Island City...

That is simply the difference between a run-down small town and a luxurious city like the capital or Nanjing.

Even~, even the capital, a luxurious and majestic city like Nanjing, to a large extent, seems... seems to be somewhat less than Changsheng Island.

Because the entire structural layout of Changsheng Island is not blocked by city walls and is completely built according to the natural terrain.

The roads are wide and flat, and even the houses in the city are surrounded by lush green.

It seems~~~, this is not a city, but a huge garden.

Especially ~, although there are no obvious military defense facilities in the entire urban area of ​​Changsheng Island, Governor Yuan is keenly aware that Li Yuanqing used the roads and military camp structures to firmly block several key nodes.

At this time, even though he could not see the scale of Changsheng Island's defense when it faced a real war, Governor Yuan could keenly feel that once there was a sudden war, 80%, 80%!

The reaction speed of Changsheng Island is definitely faster and faster than that of Ningyuan City!

In comparison, Ningyuan City is like a wasteland covered with wild grass and almost no one cares about it. However, here on Changsheng Island, it is a land with fertile grass and fertile fields full of life.

this……

He, Inspector Yuan, is obviously so much better than Li Yuanqing, why~, why is there such a big gap...
