Thirty-eighth chapter eleven

Zhao De lowered his head and took a bite of tea, and asked him, "You are Wang Ren."

"Ah!" Wang Ren stood up from his seat in shock, bowed to him inappropriately, and replied respectfully: "It's the villain..."

"Well..." Zhao De put down the tea bowl, waved his hand to signal him to sit down, and smiled and said, "I heard that you are General Wang's adopted son. I wonder if the general is still healthy when he comes in?"

Wang Ren did not dare to sit down, so he stood there carefully and replied: "Yes, if you have any help, your Majesty will worry. The adoptive father, who eats rice and 10 kilograms of meat, is still able to wear heavy armor, cross a fierce horse, drives a bow of two stones, and swings a hundred kilograms of iron spear, which is quite as brave as Lian Po at that time. Therefore, he often thinks about fighting in the Central Plains and serving the country. After coming to the island, he never mentioned the events of the past to outsiders. However, when he was talking privately at home, he always talked about the past with us, and was grateful to Taizu for his kindness for his knowledge.

As for tears, I couldn't help myself. I always praised Your Majesty's divine literature, holy and martial arts, and I had the legacy of Taizu. It was a blessing for my country in the Song Dynasty to get this wise king. I regretted the incident of my collision with the emperor back then. I only regretted that he was arrogant and narrow-minded at that time, which caused a huge disaster. Now that Qin horses are rampant, they offend our territory and kill our people, it is the troublesome autumn. The adoptive father has nothing to do with his weapons and is trapped in an isolated island overseas and has no use for national affairs. He is really ashamed of Your Majesty and the people."

"Well, I should be stronger and stronger. I would rather change my old head. I will be poorer and stronger, and I will not lose my ambition. General Wang is indeed General Fu Bo from my Jiangnan." Zhao De nodded and praised: "Your Majesty was also wrong when he was in Liancheng. When he was the prince, he was not very experienced in the world and was young and vigorous, so he did not know how to be humble and tolerant. The general who fought on the battlefield has always been a rough and bold temperament, and his words are understandable. Your Majesty had a big conflict with General Wang because of his verbal disagreement. It was really inelegant. General Wang was afraid of being punished by the court because of his priest. He hung a seal and sealed gold, changed his name and surname, gathered at the island, and became a mountain king. He had no choice but to do it. The court also knew the difficulties and never punished him because of this matter."

When Wang Ren heard his words, he wondered in his heart: "Who is this? How dare you say the emperor's right? Could it be that this young man is even more powerful than the one who is today? Don't look at him as a young man, he is actually a man with great power. He is really not a good person."

Zhao De spoke very softly and did not show any sharpness at all, which made Wang Ren gradually relax. He also dared to ask him: "Dare you ask this young master's name, what is his current position?"

Zhao De smiled and said, "Hey, I dare not take it as a noble name. I just use the false name of my ancestors to be a poor official here. It's okay if you don't ask!"

Seeing that he refused to tell the truth, Wang Ren was inconvenient to ask more questions, but he became more convinced that this person must be a storm who could call the wind and rain in the officialdom of the Song Dynasty. He was even closer to him now, and said: "Now that the transformation of Leizhou Island has unexpectedly led to the country turning into a ruin, and the people have suffered a lot of suffering. All the families on the island said that the Song Dynasty was the decree of heaven, and our rebellion against the will of Song was against heaven, so we were punished by this heaven. In order to prevent the people of Leizhou from being punished by heaven again, our adoptive father specially sent me here to present a letter of surrender, asking the court to pardon our sins and give orders to the court to sue us."

Although Wang Ren's words were somewhat idealistic and mysterious, Zhao De could be more helpful than drinking Mao Feng in Huangshan. He clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Those who know the times are heroes. General Wang and the heads of the families of Leizhou can follow the heavens and respond to the people, accept land and surrender, so that the creatures in this area can avoid the disaster of war and enjoy the joy of the king and the people of the Song Dynasty. This is a great deed of great merits!"

Wang Ren hurriedly agreed: "What the Lord said is very true. My all over and over the Emperor of Leizhou is like a prodigal son looking forward to his mother, and he hopes for a long time of drought. Please send a recruit to the island quickly to the people of Leizhou to avoid the hope of the people of Leizhou..."

Zhao De nodded and said, "I also know the civil strife in Leizhou in the past few days. Each family is killed by one another, and it is terrible. Eight years since General Wang landed on the island, all families on Leizhou have no talent for governing the government, which has caused all industries to wither and people's livelihood to decline. Now I have suffered this disaster again. It's really a rainy night. I believe that the livelihood on the island is now extremely difficult. If you all want to bow down and surrender to the Heavenly Dynasty, I will report to the Emperor Ming, ask the Emperor to issue an order, and order the Second Road to Xinlu to allocate gold, silk, grain and rice to Leizhou as soon as possible to solve this urgent need."

"Thank you, sir, please..." Wang Ren stood there, nodded and said thanks, but suddenly the fifth girl came out of his mind and thought to himself: "If the imperial court goes to Leizhou to recruit peace, the fifth girl's affairs will be so big on the island, how can it be covered up?" He also knew that the fifth girl was colluding with the pirates of Leizhou as the imperial court's imperial decree. According to the laws of the Song Dynasty, the bandits were going to be beheaded. I didn't know whether to say it or not, so I was stunned for a moment.

Zhao De noticed that his expression was strange and was in trouble, but he was not inconvenient to ask him, and said, "Miss Hai is doing well recently?"

"Ah? OK, okay, very good..." Wang Ren suddenly came to his senses and nodded vigorously and said, "This civil strife in Leizhou was thanks to Miss Hai coming to the island and rushing among the families, so that everyone could stop the war and form a bloody alliance, which was considered to have eliminated this demonic disaster. She had great merits for the people of Leizhou. However, because the people of Leizhou did not forget their old grievances, they all had resentment for what she did to save her enemies. Her family's ancestral tombs were dug up by the people on the island, and she couldn't stay on the island, so she had to run to Liancheng to clear the land and grow vegetables."

"So that's why." Zhao De smiled, "I wondered how this little girl was so good. How could she go to Liancheng to open up land and grow vegetables? It turned out that she suffered a huge grievance in her hometown. She was so angry that she shook her hands and ignored her."

Wang Ren asked, "How come this adult recognizes Miss Hai?"

"Ha, who doesn't know Miss Hai's name is in the capital?" Zhao De laughed, "Beat the Tartars, pull the edict, and scold the emperor. She has made all the good things happen. Who in the capital doesn't tell her?"

Wang Ren also laughed with him and said, "Miss Hai has had such a temper since she was a child. She has been following her adoptive father on the island for many years and has drunk a lot of ink, but she can't change her temper... Even the fifth girl in Rongxing Mansion, such a overlord-like figure, would respect her three points."

"What?" Zhao De couldn't help frowning again and said, "Miss Five...has she also got involved in Leizhou's recruitment?"
