Chapter 650: Death is the only way through the ages. Survival in death is truly a hero.

Since the Ningbo Shipping Department tried to impose a sea ban, Ningbo has naturally become a lively place in the south of the Yangtze River. Every winter, a large number of businessmen gather here waiting for the right trade wind to go to sea; and every summer, there are many ships

When we sailed back, we were loaded with porcelain and silk.

Wait, most of them brought spices and gems with them when they came back, but the materials used for ballast were different. Those who sailed to the West mostly used the same wood produced on the Western islands as Zheng He's fleet, while those who sailed to the East used wood from the same islands.

I like all kinds of copperware and even various Song Dynasty copper coins.

It is already the end of October, which is naturally a good time to go to sea. For veterans who know the sea charts, this is the time to set sail. Due to the large number of sea ships, many businessmen set off early these days to several ports in Fujian

After docking for supplies, Yang Fan sailed southward again, so the dock was bustling all day long.

The most important reason is that no one knows when the sea ban will happen again, so seize the opportunity to earn a vote.

Near noon, a fully loaded six-masted sailboat slowly sailed away from a small dock in Fujian. The entire ship was built by old Fujian shipbuilders at no expense, using the best materials and hiring skilled workers.

Shipman and sailor. Xiang Da Nai is at the helm.

He was a famous smuggler under the Yang family in the past, but he was scared out of his wits when the imperial court exterminated the Japanese, so he simply stopped. But after all, he was not used to staying on land in the past two years, so he heard that someone had offered a high price.

, so he came over.

Although he was used to being gangsters in the past, he was very greedy for this cargo, but he was greatly surprised by the guards accompanying the ship owner. These people were all tall and muscular men, and they walked and spoke with a few words.

in the army

Aura, the person in the dream specifically hinted that there were many people behind the captain, so he did not dare to underestimate that person. When he only chatted with the boatmen and sailors, he would still quietly call him lame a few times, as if this could show his past.

The majesty comes.

In this way, the ship sailed slowly on the sea for several days. At noon that day, Boss Xiang personally led people to deliver food to the cabin. As soon as he entered the door, he heard the lame man and the other two people pointing at a picture and arguing about something.

He stood and listened for a while, ready to go

Reality really didn't understand, so he glanced at the only young girl in the room a few times, and then retreated in dismay. He noticed that there was a door in the cabin that was tightly locked with an iron lock, and he couldn't help but pick a

He raised his eyebrows, then shrugged and exited.

When we first left Ningbo, the people from the Shipping Department just boarded the ship and had a casual look without any detailed investigation. This shows that it cannot be prohibited private goods. Even if someone is really kidnapped, they don't care about him. If this is the case

The owner of the ship sailed for a while and prepared to throw the people inside into the sea. This was a common activity. He saw more than one or two things while making a living at sea.

In the locked cabin of the ship, a man was sitting there blankly. When he first found out that he had been kidnapped, Fang Rui was very anxious and worried that others were trying to pry something out of him.

Only when he was gagged and moved by car and boat did he gradually change his original attitude.

No matter who the other party is, it is easy to find a secret place to torture him, and it will never take so much trouble. However, this time after the ship docked and set sail again, no one used a cloth to choke his mouth.

, and did not plug his ears with cotton, he could hear everything around him clearly.

This is actually on the sea! This is actually a ship heading to the Western Ocean!

The discussion among the people outside gradually became sparse, and finally disappeared completely. Immediately afterwards, he heard a rustling sound coming from the door, and then the closed door slowly opened.

Remembering that unless he was locked up, he would always be blindfolded by a black cloth. He couldn't help but squint his eyes. When he saw the person coming in with a cane, he took a breath and understood.

own situation.

Others may not know Liu Da, but he was beside Zhu Zhantan, the crown prince of Han Dynasty at that time. Even though he was not very trusted, he knew about Zhang Yue's actions in Qingzhou, and even saw this craftsman's work in Zihedian Village with his own eyes.

Those plows. However, he didn't expect that this middle-aged man who could barely walk on his own would now have a glowing face. If he hadn't still been limping, he would hardly have recognized that he was the same person back then.

Over the years, Liu Da had no worries about food or clothing. He spent all his time on the things he loved most. He was naturally at ease. He seemed to be ten years younger and in high spirits. He looked at Fang Rui carefully for a while.

, he smiled and said: "It seems that Mr. Fang recognizes me. That's good, it saves me a lot of trouble. You should know who brought you here now, and there is another sentence that I asked me to pass on to you - well

, the agency was too clever in its calculations, and it cost you your life."

Upon hearing this, Fang Rui's expression suddenly changed, and he snorted angrily: "Why is he so conceited? This is how the emperor conquered the world in the past. How could he know that His Highness the King of Han is not the second emperor?"

These words were already extremely treasonous, but Liu Da's expression only changed slightly, and then he took two steps forward with a cane, sat down on a wooden box, and called out again: "Xi'er, don't leave."

Eavesdropping outside, just come in freely if you want to listen! It’s been so many years, but you still can’t change this problem!”

Seeing someone coming in at the door, Fang Rui couldn't help but be a little alert. When he found out that it was a neat and pretty woman wearing a bright red brocade cardigan, a smoky gray silk skirt, and a green-patterned silver hairpin on her head, she was heartbroken.

Have a rest. However, even though he knew that even if he went back now, everything would be over, his naturally strong personality still made him unwilling to suffer verbal losses.

"If you want to send a message back, then please tell Zhang Yue that he will not always win. Feng shui in this world always takes turns, and luck will not always be on his side!"

Xi'er eavesdropped on a few words outside, and then heard Fang Rui's rude remarks. She was immediately annoyed and immediately sneered: "Young Master Fang is so boastful. How dare you think that you are unlucky because you can't beat others? Even if you are

I was really unlucky in the past. Who said that grasping luck is not a skill? If you lose, you lose. There is nothing else to say. What’s the point of making excuses for yourself! What do you think of that King of Han? I am from Qingzhou.

But I don’t think he is a talented person! Besides, now that the new king has ascended the throne, what else can the King of Han do?”

She has followed Liu Da and taken care of a lot of things for him in the past few years, and the two of them have always been like father and daughter. Although she has seen a lot of the market and has met a few good men, she has always been an unmarried woman. Those who climb high branches

She has now kept her intention deep in her heart. She usually just warned herself to be cautious and to be taciturn in front of others, but now she has returned to her original bold and aggressive nature.

"Besides, if you want to learn from the late emperor, you can't just learn a superficial lesson. What's the use of just learning from the late emperor's rage? In the past twenty years, I haven't seen the King of Han win a battle, nor have I seen any famous generals under his command, let alone

The emperor once praised him, but instead he kept blaming him, and he almost lost his title. Just talking about the people of Shandong, who respects him from the bottom of his heart? "

"Okay, okay, Xi'er, please stop saying a few words! Bring in the food and drinks from outside so that Young Master Fang can use some!" This was the first time in so many years that Liu Da heard Xi'er speak so bluntly, and he quickly interrupted.

He looked at her and gave another order, then turned to Fang Rui, "Master Fang, I don't understand the big things outside, and I don't want to argue with you about any big principles. I just want to say that since Mr. Zhang did this, it is

It is said that he has the corresponding confidence. Over the years, he has really not missed it. It is too short-sighted to focus on one place all day long. Now that you have gone to sea, let's take a good look at the vast sea and sky!"

Fang Rui was so angry at Xi'er's words just now, but as soon as he heard such calm and convincing words, his expression gradually changed. Indeed, many times, Zhang Yue was always the final winner.

Being able to control luck is also a skill. This is actually true, but he does not believe that he is always the one who is wrong...

"Hey, it's time to eat!"

Xi'er, who came in carrying a boxwood tray, walked in angrily, placed the rice bowl and vegetables heavily on the wooden box next to Fang Rui, and said coldly: "Don't play any tricks, we're on board

But they are all well-trained guards, and even the ship workers and sailors will not listen to your nonsense. On this ship, you can live well as long as you stay safe. It is also easy to seek death. Just jump down from the window.

That's all. Although you can see the shore here, don't think you can swim back..."

Liu Da, who originally wanted to give some more advice, heard that Xi'er was still so merciless, so he didn't know what to say, so he could only step forward and pull the person out, and then closed the door ajar. But he was left here alone.

Fang Rui did not touch the food, but stared at the ship window that could only allow one person to enter or exit.

When he was just locked here, he once looked out of the window. At that time, he thought about asking for help, but he never thought about seeking death. After so many years, no matter how difficult it was, he never thought about it. Death is the last word. Death is the only way through the ages. Death is worse than living. If his life is gone, what else can he do?

The sea is calm and the sky is vast, and the grassland in winter is also vast, but large tracts of grassland are already covered with snow. The season of autumn and horse fat has passed, and now comes the chilling winter and the overwhelming wind.

Snow and the biting cold. Whether it is a large tribe or a small tribe, this means that a season of life and death is coming.

"Master Wan, the distinguished King Shunning hopes that you will stay for a while."

A tall man wearing a brown-red Mongolian robe bent deeply, with an unchanging smile on his face: "The two leaders you want to see, King Xianyi and King Anle, are already on their way here. You don't need to

Don't take the wrong path again. Besides, it's the season of heavy snowstorms on the grassland, and your subordinates are unfamiliar with the place, so it's better to wait here."

Ever since he arrived at the Churo Ross Headquarters, Wanshijie had spent most of his time dealing with this man, and had only seen him having sex once. In that hasty meeting, he was keenly aware of the murderous intent in the man, and he had already felt it in his heart.

As I guessed, hearing that the man was still procrastinating, he frowned and said bluntly: "In this case, I want to see King Shunning."

"King Shuning is ill." The man's face froze, and then he said politely, "As long as King Shuning improves, I will take you to see him immediately. Now I ask Mr. Wan to wait a few more days."

Seeing this person leave the tent without looking back after he finished speaking, Wan Shijie felt a surge of anger rushing into his head. He wanted to go forward and grab the person back for careful interrogation. However, when he thought that he was now under the nose of others,

Bottom, he immediately put aside these annoyances and sat down to think carefully.

The three tribes of Wala are said to be of the same spirit, but they have always been at odds with each other. What's more, based on what they saw and heard along the way, Tuo Huan's ambitions are obvious. However, if Tuo Huan is not here, then

, is he fighting a war with the Tatars, or does he want to take advantage of this opportunity to unify the three tribes of Oara first, and then pursue other plans?

At this moment, the thick curtain was suddenly opened, and a strong wind suddenly rolled in. Wansijie, who was caught off guard, was choked by the cold wind and couldn't help but sneeze several times. When he saw the person at the door,

Full of irritation, he changed his expression to a calm one. Unlike Zhang Yue, this was the first time he walked with an eunuch, and he was also a boring gourd-like eunuch. Therefore, he couldn't help but feel strange when he saw this guy walking in.

.

"Eunuch Cheng, what can I tell you?"

Since he was sent out, Cheng Jiu knew that he was almost finished. Going to Wala as an envoy was completely different from going to Xuanfu. Moreover, Lu Feng had Zhang Qian in the capital as a backup at that time, but he had nothing. So, he

He rarely spoke during the trip, but he kept paying attention to various signs and hoped to return safely. The imperial court usually sent envoys mainly to middle-ranking officials, but this time, I am afraid he can command them.

, that is, the little eunuch who was singled out to follow him.

"Master Wan, do you want to go back in glory, or do you want to go back and die?"

This is a very nonsense statement, so even Wan Shijie, who usually likes to joke, did not answer easily this time. Instead, after staring at Cheng Jiu carefully for a while, he calmly uttered five words: "You

This is nonsense!”

"Tuohuan is not here. He is negotiating with Xianyi King Taiping and Anle King Tupolo, and is encouraging them to send troops to Arutai. It cost me a lot to ask about this." Cheng Jiu's face turned a little pale.

, but still gritted his teeth and said, "Tohuan is sending people to hold us back now, probably because he wants to delay the situation. When the overall situation is decided, he will send envoys back with us to negotiate terms with the court."

After hearing such words, Wan Shijie was stunned: "Then what else do you say about life and death? Do you want to curse yourself?"

"But Tu Huan might want to kill us envoys. When Arutai is defeated in the future, he will blame the other two people. He wants to unify the entire Mongolia..."

"Silly words!" Wan Shijie interrupted Cheng Jiu angrily without thinking, clapped his hands again and stood up, "It's natural to do things like killing people and framing people, but they have to get rid of it.

He will only attack the leaders of those two groups by himself, because if the imperial court sends troops, the other two groups will be greatly depleted in strength and will completely break with him. At most, he will only be able to drink a few sips of soup! Eunuch Cheng, you

He has been immersed in conspiracies for too long! He is delaying time to deal with Arutai, it is the smoke released by others. The first thing Tuohuan has to do now is to unify the three tribes of Wala!"

After saying that, he ignored the stunned Cheng Jiu, opened the tent and walked straight out. When he saw a tall and upright figure walking around in the heavy snow, he called out. When the man came over in a hurry, he

Then he said in a deep voice: "Shi Heng, tell the others to be more vigilant these days. Don't you often wrestle with those Mongolians? Try to find out the whereabouts of King Xianyi and King Anle!"

Shi Heng followed Wan Shijie's words these days and hung out with the Mongolian men. He won the respect of many people with his strength and ability. But at this time, he was confused: "Sir, why don't we try to return to Beijing?"
