Empress of the Ming Dynasty and Princess Zhaohua of Chu, any identity is enough to crush the Ning family and the Quanzhou County Governor Hu Yicai. Although Ning Zhiwen said that Quanzhou is full of words, he also knew very well that if he offended the real emperor and nobles, he would really be like playing. Although he was not as powerful as other places, he would really retreat to the sea to escape from the end of the world? He was old, and the comfortable life on land and the luxurious life had long become his habits. How could he take any path unless he had no choice?

As for Hu Yicai, let alone. Although he was a county magistrate, this official was really nothing to Princess Zhaohua?

"Why did Princess Zhaohua return to Chu State at this time?" Ning Zhiwen asked suspiciously.

"It's probably for the war between Qi and Chu!" Hu Yicai whispered: "The war between Da Chu is not good at the moment. Since Chu Ming is a relative of his marriage, he will definitely not sit idly by."

Ning Zhiwen nodded, thinking that he could only explain this way. They had known about the northwest of Qi, and a unit of Ming Dynasty even helped Wu Teng of Xinning attack the Lingchuan of Qi.

"Brother Ning, I have to go back to the government office immediately and call all the officials to go to the dock to greet him." Hu Yicai bowed and said, "You can't slack off, you have to invite some gentry and nobles with me."

"I know this, Brother Hu can rest assured." Ning Zhiwen nodded. Although it was rumored that Princess Zhaohua was incompatible with Emperor Chu, she was not close to each other and wanted to be in the State of Chu. Such a person could not afford to offend him.

Now that Chu Qi is fighting, the situation of Chu State is not good, but even if Chu State has a big problem, this is still the queen of the Ming Dynasty. If she really offended her, there will be endless troubles. Ning Zhiwen doesn't want to be targeted by the queen of a country.

Hu Yicai left in a hurry, but Ning Zhiwen did not rush to go out immediately. Instead, he sat there and pondered for a while before calling his eldest son Ning Zefeng.

"Zefeng, have all the guests there been settled?" Ning Zhiwen looked at his eldest son, who was in his early thirties, and was quite calm. His authority among the Ning clan was getting stronger.

"Father, how can I have any guests?" Ning Zefeng bowed respectfully and answered my question.

Ning Zhiwen looked at his eldest son with some sarcastic sarcasm and said slowly: "Zefeng, do you think that being a father is already stupid? Or do you think that a gentleman can deceive him?"

Ning Zefeng was shocked. This was a very harsh accusation. I was really unhappy. I was not as good as having sex when I cleaned up myself. He immediately knelt down.

"Father, the child dare not deceive his father." He lowered his head.

"Don't forget, you are still in charge of the Ning family." Ning Zhiwen stood up and said angrily: "Don't think you didn't know the little moves you made. Do you think you could hide them from everyone? Don't forget that the inner guard of the Great Chu is not a vegetarian. If your small moves are known to others, they will be to confiscate the house and exterminate the clan, especially at this time. Do you know that the great manager has quietly killed three people?"

With a swish, Ning Zefeng's cold sweat suddenly appeared, he raised his head in horror and looked at his father: "Father."

Ning Zhiwen snorted: "The State of Chu has not yet perished? The war between Qi and Chu has changed rapidly, and now the State of Ming has been mixed in again. You don't know yet. The Empress of the Ming Dynasty and Princess Zhaohua of the Great Chu have arrived at Quanzhou Port. There are some people from Qi in your house. Do you think the sky is perfect? ​​If you don't want to know, don't do it yourself. Do you think you can really cover the sky with your hands in Quanzhou?"

"Father, the child knows that he is guilty." Ning Zefeng touched the ground with his forehead, "But the child is also considering Ning. Now that the Emperor of Chu is trapped in Luzhou, Qi State, and is about to be defeated. It is hard to say whether he can save his life. Once Qi State wins and destroys Chu State, the Zhou State, the status quo of the Bozhou State of Qi State will rise sharply. My son just wants to find a way out for Ning."

"If I hadn't considered this, I would have been rude to you!" Ning Zhiwen took a breath and sat down, "Hide those people well, and never let go of any rumors. Wait until Princess Zhaohua leaves before sending them away."

"Son understand."

Ning Zhiwen looked at Ning Zefeng, who was sweating, and waved his hand in dismay, signaling him to leave. Looking at his son's departure, Ning Zefeng's face slowly calmed down.

Is the youngest son Ning Zeyuan dead or alive? He knew the actions of the eldest son during this period, and he knew the battle between the two sons even more clearly. But the Ning family needs a brave, ruthless person with great skills and intelligence to ensure their prosperity. The good baby cannot suppress the Ning family's subordinates. For the Ning family, a grazing guy comes to the stage, which is a catastrophe for Ning family.

So, he sat down and watched his two sons fight openly and secretly.

However, this time, the eldest son's actions crossed the line a little. He tried every means to weaken Ning Zeyuan's strength to go out to sea. Is he going to destroy his only brother at sea?

Ning Zhiwen's face was gloomy and sunny.

"Master!" he called in a low voice.

The chief manager immediately appeared at the door of the quiet room and stepped in, "Master, what are the instructions?"

"Give me my post and invite everyone in Quanzhou City to go to the dock to welcome Princess Zhaohua's carriage." He ordered.

"Yes, Master."

At the port terminal of Quanzhou Port, the huge Taiping ship had entered the port. In contrast to the Taiping ship, the ships that were originally docked in the port immediately became small spots. At this time, the Taiping ship had already exposed its fangs without any concealment. The felt cloth covered with thunder fire and crossbow machines had been pulled away, revealing their hideous faces. Eight thunder fires and dozens of crossbow machines made all those who knew the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the knowledge of the experience of the people.

Looking at the huge hull of Taiping Ship, the terrifying weapons on the hull, and the majestic warriors on the deck, many people secretly savored it in their hearts. Unless Master Ning brought out the things at home, the Quanzhou Navy would be crushed!

Even if the Quanzhou Navy has many ships, can a hundred small sampans together threaten a huge warship?

The Taiping ship was quietly stopped in the port. On the mast, there were the Sun and Moon Flags of the Ming Dynasty and the Fire Phoenix Flags of the State of Chu. Although they had anchored, there was no springboard. The warriors on the ship had been standing silently like sculptures for a long time, but there was still no one moving. The entire port was silent except for the sound of waves hitting the embankment.

The Taiping Ship has put too much pressure on them.

Zhou Li stood with a helmet and armor, and a knife stood at the bow of the boat. His one-eye shone brightly. Once he was developed, he returned home with a rich and elegant clothes. Now he felt very much. Many years ago, he was driven out of the Quanzhou Navy and lost all his official positions and titles. He hid in a small fishing village in Quanzhou and lived in a panic. Later, he had to surrender to Master Ning because he had to surrender. However, in the Ning family, his Ning position was just a dog-legged and a senior thug. It has to be said that more than two years ago, it should be said that three years ago, and his departure was an extremely wise decision. The navy responsible for a country was somewhat comparable to his previous status in the Ning family. What's more, the monarch he surrendered to was a wise ruler with ambitions and a sky-like mind. Such a person is worthy of his life to serve him.

The sound of horse hooves came from a distance. Zhou Li smiled slightly. Quanzhou Prefecture was still moving very quickly. Soon, a team of cavalry appeared in his eyes. Behind the cavalry was a black infantry team. It was able to assemble troops so quickly to reach the port on the first day of the Lunar New Year. This shows that the army of Da Chu still has considerable combat effectiveness.

The soldiers rushed into the port and lined up and deployed defenses under the command of the officers. In a short time, they completed the control of the port and isolated all irrelevant people.

As soon as these were finished, more carriages appeared in Zhou Li's vision. The carriage that he arrived first moved a roll of red carpet and spread it from a distance to the Taiping ship. The carriage that arrived later was parked at the edge of the red carpet, and walked down from above, Quanzhou officials dressed in official uniforms, and even further behind, the gentry and powerful living in Quanzhou also walked off the carriage and lined up one by one.

Quanzhou is indeed a very efficient city! Zhou Li sighed in his heart, this was the case in the past, and a few years have passed, but it is still the case now. Zhou Li, who is deeply aware of the inside story here, is very clear that all this is not because of how powerful the government is, but because there is a Ning family here.

"I, Hu Yicai, the governor of Quanzhou County, led the county officials to see Princess Zhaohua!" Hu Yicai knelt on the red carpet and gave a great gift to the Taiping ship. He only called Min Ruoxi the title of Princess Zhaohua in Da Chu, of course because this time Min Ruoxi returned to Chu, but the center of Da Chu did not receive the other party's letter, so of course he could not call the other party the Empress.

A moment later, a somewhat cold voice rang on the boat: "Your Highness, Princess Xuan Quanzhou County Magistrate Hu Yicai Jin."

As the words came to an end, a rumbling sound rang out and a huge springboard was put down from the ship.

Hu Yicai got up, tidy up his clothes, looked back at Ning Zhiwen a little far away, and walked towards the Taiping Ship.

Ning Zhiwen is the de facto boss of Quanzhou, but in such an occasion, he can only stay away from other nobles in Quanzhou. It is okay to go beyond the government and do something secretly, but if he appears in public, it is unwise. Especially if he shows this in front of the royal family, he is even more demanding to die.
