Chapter 17 The Ship
Chen Mu, who returned to the Nanyang Military Palace, kept wondering why Yu Dayou called Li Zhu Ship Li Lou Ship many times before leaving?
"Duke Gao, Li Zhu and Li Lou, are you so easy to hear it wrong?"
Chen Mu was a little worried and decided to turn around and send a doctor to Yu Dayou. When people get old, they will have symptoms such as auditory hallucinations, weakness, and memory errors.
Thinking of this, Chen Mu looked at Gao Gong with some suspicion. This old man is older.
Gao Gong has been busy for several days. After the New Year, the Nanyang Military Office is preparing for the upcoming expedition of Magui across the strait to Amelica. In order to prevent various situations that may arise, whether it is disease, war or sea risks, the temple must be clear.
"Li Zhu and Li Lou? How could you hear it wrong? This is the same person."
Gao Gong looked up in surprise, put down the wolf's pen, turned his eyes from the right side of his eyes to the left corner, then looked up at Chen Mu, and asked, "Is this a joke again, Mr. Xiao Shuai?"
"one person?"
Chen Mu's face was a little stiff, and he licked his lips and asked, "Isn't Li Zhu an ancient divine beast?"
"What kind of divine beast? That's a person. Huangdi lost the Xuanzhu and asked Li Zhu to find it. His eyes had the ability to see the Xuanzhu for Huangdi." Gao Gong curled up his sleeves and said, "Zhuang Zhou of the Zhou Dynasty called Li Zhu Li Lou, so this person had two names. It's impossible to know what he was called today, but when people mention these two names, they know it was him."
"So that's it. I've been taught by the younger generation." Chen Mu nodded and smiled: "You must read more in the future."
"Chen Shuai doesn't have to study anymore. If you want to study, you have time. Now you are the most powerful minister. I'd better wait for you to have descendants and let him study more. If I'm here, it's okay to accept a disciple." Gao Gong said, his old face slightly, "I won't teach him to be as ignorant as his father."
Chen Mu curled his lips, knowing that it was just a joke whether it was Xiao Shuai or ignorant. He knew in his heart that the ministers in Nanyang would inevitably feel like they were secretly bewitched.
It is already a good situation to be able to make a few harmless jokes with a sharp tongue.
After laughing, Gao Gong asked, "Why did Shuai Chen suddenly mention this?"
"God Gao will know in two months that the Nanyang Guard has built a large sky lantern, which can release people to heaven, and is supplemented by telegrams, which can make people know the situation twenty or thirty miles away. Whether at sea or on land, intersecting and gathering troops to break through, these tactics will be easier in the future."
Gao Gong raised his eyebrows and did not take into account the sky lanterns to carry people to heaven. He knew that Chen Mu was always doing this, and he was cautious enough that he would not use it without insurance. He just squinted his eyes and asked, "Does Chen Shuai want to let the Magui fleet of Tanyamoriga use this?"
Chen Mu nodded and said, "Yes, the long voyage by sea is a slight mistake. We do not have the accurate chart to Yamelica. Once we are unable to return by trek, it will be an unbearable loss."
"Westerns use outlaws as explorers, and they all use small boats to fight the wind and waves with courage. Our flag officers have such courage. I can let them fight with their lives. They can, but I can't."
Chen Mu's lips curled up, and he showed a satisfied expression and said, "The court has swayed the three treasures to travel to Southeast Asia. Chen also needs to promote his talents to help Ma Gui succeed."
Gao Gong nodded. He knew what it meant if he could not see the land on the sea. Even if he just went south from Jilong Island to Luzon Island, this sea route that was familiar to the Nanyang Banner Army was no longer familiar with, and the sailors on the ship would still feel irritable and suspicious in the last few days of the land approaching.
As for how hopeless the sea can bring to people for a long time, Lin Ba, who fought in Guam, knows best.
Gao Gong sighed deeply from his throat. Chen Mu is good everywhere. In addition to sometimes being like a reckless man who has never read a book, it is also very uncomfortable to say whatever he thinks and says.
Shouldn’t ordinary people keep this kind of thought in their hearts and not say it out?
"So Chen Shuai named the Big Sky Lantern Li Zhu, and others called it Li Lou?"
Chen Mu nodded, patted Gao Gong's seat in his study and sat down, "It's almost the same as what Gao Gong said. It's a boat. I named the big ship that was equipped with sky lanterns Li Zhu, which is equivalent to the level of the ship, like Chihai; it's not everyone else, it's Yu Shuai. When he mentioned this, he would say Li Lou."
Hearing Chen Mu say this, Gao Gong raised his eyebrows and glanced at Chen Mugao, and asked seriously: "Where did Chen Shuai hear this name?"
Gao Gong didn't believe that Chen Mu could have such depth and took out the names of ancient characters from ancient books thousands of years ago, and even didn't know whether the owner of the name was a human or a beast.
Chen Mu turned his head and looked out the window. Lifu and the flag army in the distance from the island were building a new Nanyang Military Palace. He would not tell Gao Gong that he heard Xu Wei's words. Juyongguan on his face remained silent when he was lying, saying, "I'll get something occasionally."
"Shishuai Yu is serious after all, and he is mentioning Chen Shuai. It's better not to have Zhu in his name."
Chen Mu frowned, thought for a while, and whispered: "Has he committed a taboo?"
"That's not. The national dynasty is written in the Ming Dynasty. Taizu is generous and has no taboos. Since then, the second character of the emperor's name is avoided, only Emperor Chengzu's single word is avoided." Gao Gong shook his head and said, "There is no taboos for recent sounds. Since Emperor Taizu, the only thing he has avoided pigs is because of the zodiac sign of Wuzong. Emperor Taizu also wrote couplets for the pig slaughter, which is to split the path of life and death with both hands and cut off the root of right and wrong with one knife."
"If you want to avoid this, you have to use the cinnabar that kills pigs and kills them to commit suicide."
"But Yu Shuai is right. He is a general who was insulted and demoted seven times, and was imprisoned by Yin and imprisoned. It is normal to be cautious than Chen Shuai." Gao Gong shook his head slowly and said, "Since ancient times, there are many people who were guilty of words. Most of them were caused by disasters. If you really want to do it, what name does Chen Shuai give the warship? So what if you do your private armoured soldiers?"
It's really good to say that if someone else wants to say this, Chen Mu smiled. Gao Gong has been a prime minister in the cabinet for a long time, and his momentum is very different when he says this, which makes his heart beat twice.
Next, before Gao Gong could react, Chen Mu had already pulled the table and ink, and wrote more than ten words. He strode to the door and slapped the guards and said, "Prepare the letter and enter the post office and send it to the commander Bai Jingchen of Guangdong."
Gao Gong looked at Chen Mu sitting back on the chair without blinking, and sighed: "Shishou Chen was anxious and didn't have to pretend to be a letter. Who can understand without ten years of friendship?"
"It's okay, Brother Jingchen can understand eight points."
"Changji hasn't come back to the capital yet, I miss him very much." Chen Mu shook his head, and then said to Gao Gong: "If you don't talk about these things, you should have finished the Kuwu Island Banner Army, and the preparations are almost the same. When the ship arrives, they can set off."
"Outs ship?"
