The two sat on the beach for a while. Yun Xiao was drowsy and was drowsy. The last second he was still muttering to him. The next second he leaned against his shoulder and started to feel relieved. Xiao Qianye hugged her and wanted to find a place to rest. After walking a few steps, he accidentally saw General Xuanwu walking towards this direction alone. It was already late at night. He was still wearing a military uniform and didn't even have time to take off his weapons. He politely saluted and made a gesture of invitation. He spoke with a full breath of cheerfulness: "Young Pavilion Master came from Snow City overnight. I just received a hummingbird message in the morning. You will be here in the evening. Are you using Kunlun Mountain's sword-controlling technique? It's so fast!"

Somewhat unexpectedly, the middle-aged man with dark skin and masculinity in front of him would talk to him in such a familiar tone. Xiao Qianye nodded subconsciously, then put one hand on his shoulder and patted him hard, staring at his white hair that was completely disproportionate to his face, frowned and muttering: "Looking so young, why did you turn white? Haha, I heard the marshal mention you, it's really better to meet!"

Shocked by the other party's excessive enthusiasm, Xiao Qianye smiled awkwardly and embarrassedly, with a lot of thoughts. Feiyuan's original three armies were each performing their own duties. Although they would return to the imperial capital to attend the New Year banquet held by the emperor at the end of the year, the generals of each army were really not very familiar with each other. Especially for young people like him who were trained in the Central Plains, it was difficult for him to chat with the older generation of soldiers. So now he frowned and thought for a while, but he couldn't remember whether he had really met General Xuan Wu. He was a general of the East China Sea. He was originally Changqing's subordinate. After the other party was transferred to Bei'ancheng as the naval marshal, he was promoted to the new garrison in the East China Sea.

Changqing's subordinate... Thinking of that person, Xiao Qianye couldn't help but twitch his tongue. His personality seemed to be a little bit similar. Unlike the secret competition between the military cabinet and the former imperial guards for many years, the navy was relatively independent and had almost never participated in the struggle for power between the two armies.

Xuan Wu looked at the woman who was awakened by himself just after falling asleep, and then he quickly lowered his tone and waved his hand embarrassedly: "Miss Yun? I heard the marshal mention you, and he said you were so fierce that he almost threw him into the mouth of the sea demon!"

Yun Xiao was too lazy to talk, and rolled her eyes at him. Xuan Wu smiled secretly and pointed to the direction of the military camp: "Go and rest first, but you came too suddenly, I was not prepared for anything."

Back at the Naval Camp in the East China Sea, Xiao Qianye put down Yun Xiao and returned to the front hall. Xuan Wu drank a cup of freshly built tea, lit the candlelight and carefully flipped through the documents on the table. Xiao Qianye reminded lightly: "It's so late, won't the general go to rest?"

"I can't sleep." Xuan Wu rubbed his forehead and waved his hand, sighing, "A month ago, the Navy and the Three-Winged Bird shot down a mechanical phoenix. The thing suddenly broke its wings and lost balance before it fell into the sea. However, before it fell, we had already fought with it for a long time. Countless shells, hidden arrows and venom rushed out of the big guy. Not only did it seriously pollute the coast, but there were many dangerous parts scattered on the sea. During this period, we also took turns to salvage day and night. The sea had been closed for a month and affected the lives of fishermen. If it was not open, the people should have opinions."

Xiao Qianye remembered the cordon at the beach and nodded and replied: "It's indeed dangerous. The parts of the mechanical phoenix bird are scattered near Chuanze Peak. The three-winged bird has been searching for a month. I heard that I have also found many artillery that have not yet been detonated. The general must be careful. Those things have been modified and are more dangerous than the weapons we have seen."

"It's really an unheard of killing weapon." Xuan Wu lowered his head and sighed, with a complex light flashing in his eyes. "I joined the army at the age of sixteen and have been drifting in the East China Sea for thirty years. I have seen many of your three-winged birds, but this is the first time I have seen that cold machine. It's really amazing. No wonder Your Majesty wants to open the harbor to welcome guests from all over the world. If you keep so firm, Feiyuan will become the frog in the well, and will sooner or later be eaten by a stronger force."

"Ha, the general can see clearly." Xiao Qianye smiled silently. Over the past period of time, he actually heard many different voices, especially those who had long been accustomed to everything, who were mostly unwilling to make changes. He has always questioned or even opposed the policy of opening up the Emperor of Heaven. Fortunately, Mingxi is a decisive and decisive person, so he can use his own strength to promote the integration of the isolated island of Feiyuan into a broader world.

Xuanwu paused, and he coughed lightly and suddenly said, "Shao Pavilion Master, the battle with the mechanical phoenix that day caught up with the storm in the East China Sea. Although the weather may have affected the performance of the machinery, the bad weather actually made it more difficult for our soldiers to operate. To be honest, the thing suddenly fell off. Rather than saying that the weather was beautiful, I think someone should have secretly helped."

Xiao Qianye frowned and did not respond. Such a subtle change in expression was accurately seen by the experienced veteran. He suddenly realized and breathed a sigh of relief. He did not continue to pick up the topic. He found a reason to talk to himself, and said with a smile: "Can it be that the gods can't stand it anymore? After all, Feiyuan has finally been able to end his hardships and end his hardships. He can't tolerate these bastards doing things for nothing."

He still didn't say anything. Xuan Wu raised his eyebrows and changed the topic meaningfully, and threw him a booklet. Xiao Qianye took it strangely and found that there were dense information about some merchants and ships on it. Before he could speak, Xuan Wu took the initiative to say: "This was sent by Jingge. The five years of pilot opening of the West Coast has indeed driven the economy to recover in the whole country. Although the climate in the East China Sea is slightly more complex and more variable than the West Sea, it is more abundant in materials. In addition, the number of merchants is dozens of times that of Yangchuan when approaching the major cities of Dongming. Therefore, Jingge plans to open a new external port in the East China Sea starting next year. This is the information they have compiled."

Although he didn't understand the real purpose of Xuan Wu telling him about these things, Xiao Qianye still looked through them patiently and asked seriously: "Do you have any concerns?"

Xuan Wu smiled jokingly, then immediately straightened his back and said seriously with an extremely serious expression: "Don't the young master know the style of Jing Pavilion? The last time the storm and the Ji'ao incident in the Sun and Rain, and the recent mountain city of Juao, which was not a big trouble they neglected? I heard that even the Master of Jing Pavilion was assassinated, right? Frankly speaking, there are many fishermen living here for generations in the East China Sea, and many newly relocated aliens. I naturally do not oppose the opening of the new harbor, but I just hope that it will not affect their lives too much. This time, a considerable number of merchant lists compiled by Jing Pavilion were moved from the back of the giant ao. I would like to ask the Master of Shao to help me take a look."

Xiao Qianye pinched the pages of paper in his hand and felt that his shoulder weighed a thousand pounds. Seeing that he hadn't replied for a long time, Xuan Wu grabbed his head a little embarrassedly and muttered: "Hey, I know that the military palace has been busy for the past few years. It was not your responsibility for this matter. I just, but... I really can't believe in the group of bastards who are jealous of money at Jing Pavilion!"

Xiao Qianye laughed out loud and looked at the tall but delicate man with a different look: "Okay, I'll find someone to investigate, General."

Xuan Wu breathed a sigh of relief, as if a matter of concern had finally fallen. Then he realized that it was already the middle of the night. He quickly put away the materials on the table and smiled honestly: "Young Master, go and rest quickly. Hummingbird sent a message saying that you don't plan to use warships to escort them. He just notified President Luo of Tianlu Trading Company to borrow their merchant ships. Now he has arranged people to prepare. It is estimated that the ships around the world will be able to dock tomorrow night. If you need anything else, just tell me."

"Thank you." Xiao Qianye bowed his head and got up and returned to the room behind. Yun Xiao had already woken up. She put it on the window and looked at Hai in a daze. When she saw him coming back, she immediately came to her senses. Xiao Qianye touched her head and said in a low voice, "Why don't you sleep?"

Yun Xiao pulled him down and checked him up, down, left and right several times, came over and asked nervously, "He didn't make things difficult for you, right?"

"Why did he make things difficult for me?" Xiao Qianye looked at Yun Xiao strangely, and then looked at him up and down, left and right again. Yun Xiao snorted coldly, his mind full of Changqing's sarcastic face, and said angrily, "He is Changqing's subordinate! Everyone says that the upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked, and it's so angry that I think about it!"

Xiao Qianye suddenly realized "Oh" and said to himself: "Zhangqing was brought out by his adoptive father, so it's not that bad."

Before he finished speaking, he felt a sharp gaze falling on his body. Just as he raised his eyes, he was startled by Yun Xiao's expression, and changed his words by nature: "Compared with his adoptive father, he is indeed not good."

"Hmph." Yun Xiao grinned dissatisfied, "If I see him again, I really want to throw him to feed the sea demon! Be careful, don't be fooled by others again."

"Ha, it's not that exaggerating." Xiao Qianye smiled and shook Yun Xiao's head and sighed, "You really underestimate others. Xuanwu is already the highest-level general on the East Coast. He came back from a cruise on such a night. He didn't rest for a moment. He also gave me a piece of materials to help see if there was any problem."

Yun Xiao listened in disbelief, took a few pieces of paper handed over by Xiao Qianye, and muttered unyieldingly: "No way! It's said that dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, mouse's son can dig holes, he is Changqing's subordinate, is he so kind?"

Xiao Qianye poked Yun Xiao's forehead and smiled and reminded: "He is Changqing's subordinate, not Changqing's son!"

Yun Xiao looked at the papers several times over and over again. He really couldn't believe that Changqing had such a honest and honest subordinate. Xiao Qianye pulled the paper from her: "It's rare that he has this kind of heart. The East Coast is about to open to the public. A group of new merchants will soon be moved in. He doesn't take the opportunity to make money, but he cares about the safety of the indigenous residents. Just for this, probably few high-ranking officials can do it, right? But I really don't know these things very well. I will leave them to my elder brother to check them carefully when I get home."

"Wait..." Yun Xiao snatched it back, as if he had seen some words that he cared about. He thought the light was too dark and turned into a ball of flame to light up. She was so shocked that she opened her mouth for a long time without saying anything. She immediately pulled him and pointed to a name and said, "Shijue Yao Village, why does this name sound so familiar? It doesn't have anything to do with the Shijue Valley in Changbai Mountain, Central Plains?"

Xiao Qianye frowned and said, "Tianjue Medicine Village is also a seller of medicine. Is this a coincidence?"

"Xie Chaoxiu is also a drug seller." Yun Xiao reminded in a low voice, always feeling that there is a line that is not easy to detect. Xiao Qianye thought for a moment and spoke slowly, "Anyway, there is no clue now. Since he bumped into it so by chance, I'd better just detain the person and investigate it first."

He instructed Yun Xiao for a few words and immediately pushed the door out again.
