Chapter 522 Three Flavors
This night is destined to be a sleepless night for many people.
A suspension bridge was placed on the wall by Taohua Creek, and a team of sixty people rushed out of the suspension bridge.
A big red lantern lit up on the wall. Under the lantern, Li Jingsi's twelve golden hairpins were patrolling in a very stylish manner, wearing vine armor, holding a long halberd, carrying a bow and arrow.
A large number of people rushed out of the Huo family courtyard in Guangling City, and they walked quietly through the streets and alleys.
Coincidentally, not long after the Li family army entered the north city gate and turned to the west city, the three hundred guards of the Huo family happened to come out from the north city gate.
The two teams only had half a stick of incense to pass by.
When Li Xiaohua and sixty people rushed to the southeast corner of the west city, the thirty guards of the Shen family were also heading to the northwest corner of the west city under the leadership of Butler Ye.
Backyard of Guangling Prefecture.
Liu Zhuo’s study room.
A lamp, a pot of tea, two people sit opposite each other.
Sitting opposite him was the eldest young master of Zhongli Mansion, the judicial officers and military officers Zhongli Qiuyang.
He took a leisurely look and poured a cup of tea for Zhongli Qiuyang and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Sometimes, I really don't understand you boy."
"With your ability, you are more than enough to take charge of Guangling Naval Master, but why don't you go?"
"Judicials and military affairs... If such a small seventh-rank official becomes the admiral of the Guangling Naval Commander, he will be a third-rank official. Let's talk about what you think?"
Zhongli Qiuyang picked up the teacup and blew it, and smiled and said, "You are not at ease!"
"Just like the ghostly appearance of Guangling Water Master now, even if I have three heads and six arms, I will not be able to turn the sky."
He took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, sighed, and said, "Actually, it's mainly because I'm not rich. Last year, I went to Linshui and had a long chat with Jiang Xia'er all night."
"Jiang Xia'er has been in charge of Guangling Naval Command for eight years. He said that was the eight years he regretted the most afflicting one in his life!"
"He wrote to the Ministry of War countless times, but he rarely received a response from the Ministry of War."
"The dock in Linshui Port has long been abandoned, and the warships that can still be used barely have changed from 266 when they were once glorious to 72 now."
"There is no silver to maintain those warships, and there is no silver to build new warships. Even the sailors have dropped sharply from the 120,000 formerly to the 26,000 current ones."
Zhongli Qiuyang shook his head and laughed at himself: "The gods can't change even if they go. Instead of falling into the quagmire, I still think it's good for me to participate in the military."
Liu Zhuo also smiled bitterly, "I heard that in the face of the threat from Mobei, the emperor sent envoys to Jiuyin City and reached a marriage agreement with Yuwen Feng?"
"This matter was actually brought up by Princess Sulin."
"Oh? Princess Sulin... Gao Yi!"
"Gao Yi is so stupid! I don't believe that Princess Sulin would be so stupid!"
Zhongli Qiuyang looked angry, "There must be someone instructing me behind this!"
"I'm so sorry, this is a very shame! The country of Daning is now in exchange for a temporary peace with a princess..."
Liu Zhuo reached out to interrupt Zhongli Qiuyang's words and smiled bitterly: "Something is the case, that's the case. If we don't talk about this... If you don't go back to sleep, are you worried about Li Chenan?"
Speaking of Li Chenan, Zhongli Qiuyang's anger gradually disappeared, and he took another sip of tea, "I'm just curious. The current situation is that the Huo and Shen families deal with him one... Who would win?"

His son Cai Qizhi jumped up in surprise, "Father...!"
Cai Zhengyao turned around and smiled slightly, "Let's go home."
"Find a day to chat with Li Chenan for your father, and you will go to his side to do things!"
