In Mingxiang Teahouse, Hou Xuan ordered a pot of good Maojian. The scholar opposite smiled and said, "It smells so fragrant. This must be the Maojian in Ganzhou before the rain. One leaf and two tips are bright in color, clean, elegant in fragrance, fresh, and good tea!"

Hou Xuanyan didn't have much research on tea and asked, "What's your name?"

Although the scholar's face was quiet, he felt a little unhappy. This tone was like a superior asking his subordinate, which made him feel quite uncomfortable.

However, Hou Xuanyan has become accustomed to this way of speaking and cannot change it for a while, and there is no need to change it. Speaking of which, except for the girl in his arms, everyone in the world is indeed his subordinates.

"Don't ask whether you name or surname when you meet, and gather a cup of tea with your soulmate. When I walk out of this door, I may not meet again, so I won't be able to add anything to it." The scholar drank tea with serene pleasure. Although he was arrogant, he was reluctant to leave this excellent tea. He couldn't afford it.

Hou Xuanyan laughed silently. After thinking carefully, he understood the whole story. Saran smiled and said, "You don't want to say it, but I want to say my name. Listen, my name is Hou Xuanyan, from Jiading, Songjiang Prefecture."

With a crisp sound, the teacup in the scholar's hand fell to the ground, his face froze.

"Prince Yue... Prince Yue? Caomin pays homage to the prince."

Hou Xuanyan laughed and said, "Can you tell me your name now?"

The scholar was a little embarrassed and said with a smirk: "It is already an honor for the people who are willing to ask. Xiao Ke's surname is Yao and his name is Qisheng, and he is from Kuaiji, Zhejiang."

Hou Xuanyan pondered and thought about it, but he had a little impression of him, but he couldn't remember who he was. The longer he came to this dynasty, the more he had forgotten about the past, and only those historical trends were still clearly remembered.

In fact, Yao Qisheng is a very mischievous person and likes to stand up for justice the most. When he was traveling to Tongzhou in his twenties, he was insulted by local tyrants. Yao Qisheng lobbled the Qing army and claimed that he was willing to use his family wealth to serve as a military force, so he tricked a Tongzhou magistrate. After taking office, he killed the rich man first, then abandoned his official position and fled, and made a fuss.

After resigning from office, he leisurely traveled in Xiaoshan. When he saw two Qing soldiers insulting the girl, he stepped forward and pretended to persuade him, seized the sword and killed the soldiers, rescued the woman and sent it back to his house.

Later, he became the magistrate of Xiangshan, Guangdong through the imperial examination. He was wrong again. He ignored Kang Mazi's order to lock the country and opened the maritime ban without authorization. He led everyone to become rich. He was sentenced to "opening the maritime ban without arbitrariness and affair with Australian barbarians" and was dismissed and sentenced to death. Later, he was amnesty and made a living in Guangdong. Later, he was unwilling to be lonely, so he became a high-ranking official and took Shi Lang to defeat Taiwan. The Zheng family has never been a good thing. People in the world think they were lonely ministers of the Ming Dynasty and loyal ministers and generals. However, their descendants repeatedly claimed to surrender and wanted to be a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, just like Japan and Korea, to separate from China.

It would be okay to really go out to fight against the Qing Dynasty. It would be a bit disgusting for them to be subordinates of the Qing Dynasty. The bloodline of pirates has not been washed away after several generations.

Yao Qisheng not only went to the officialdom several times, but also made a great fortune, and it was also very interesting to marry a wife. Once he saw a girl named He who rolled up her sleeves and raised her stone mortar with bare hands, which was so shocked that his chin fell off. At that time, the stone mortar was not used to pound garlic in his hand, but to grind rice. One was probably as heavy as a millstone... When Yao Qisheng saw it, he was shocked and immediately came to propose marriage and married home as his wife.

Seeing that he was brave and resourceful to save people this time, Hou Xuanyan became more cautious in his talent. Now the court is too short of people. A governor of the Maraja kept his beloved general Wu Yi overseas. That was a duke who could stay outside the South China Sea for a long time and stay away from the prosperity of the Jiangnan Jingshi. Japan, Taiwan, and Jingbei all needed talents to stand on their own.

Generally, people like Yao Qisheng who are very confused are often arrogant because of their talent. They must have achievements that can shock him and those who can be respected by him can suppress him. Hou Xuanyan is undoubtedly such a person. He has made such extraordinary achievements at a young age. He has never found such great achievements to the Han people in search of history. Who in this era has never heard of those bloody battles in the Northern Expedition that make people excited?

Now it is the second year of Jingyou, 1649. Hou Xuanyan is worthy of a person in China who is worth three hundred years later in history.

Hou Xuanyan went straight to the point and asked, "I think you are a good young man. I want to promote you to be an official, are you willing?"

Yao Qisheng pondered for a moment and became embarrassed. He had already seen the infinite potential of doing business after opening the sea. This was an era destined to produce many legendary and wealthy people, but he also wanted to follow the people he respected and make achievements.

Seeing that he was hesitant, Hou Xuanyan whispered: "Yao Qisheng, what do you think is an official?"

Yao Qisheng was cautious in his words and actions. After a while, he said: "Those who do these two things are the ones who seek welfare for the people and eliminate disadvantages for the court."

"You are chivalrous and can stand up for trouble. Do you feel a little happy after success?"

"yes."

"You are so happy that you are just helping each person and a family, but being an official can help thousands of people. How happy it is to be respected and praised by others at that time!" After Hou Xuan finished speaking, Yao Qisheng's eyes lit up and he immediately agreed.

Hou Xuanyan laughed secretly and said, "Now that Manraga has just been conquered by me, and has set up a governor's office. Wu Yi, the Duke of Ding of the State of China, is in charge of the charge. I will now appoint you as the fifth-rank Wude General, go to Songjiang to follow the navy to Manraga, and learn hard with Wu Yi. If you have achievements in the future, you will be transferred back to the capital."

Most people are definitely reluctant to hear that they send to the Corner of the South China Sea, but Yao Qisheng is an exception. He is born to like challenges and does not like dullness. When he heard this, he could go to sea to that distant place, and he couldn't help but be happy.

"As the prince knows the favor of his favor, he must be loyal and wise to repay the prince."

The two of them had been talking for a long time, and Jingyou looked unhappy in Hou Xuanyan's arms. The difference between this morning court was not much different, and it was very different from the lively moment before.

The childish voice came: "Father, I want to go out to play."

Hou Xuanyan was awarded the title of regent of the emperor's father, which was the morning court today, and outsiders still don't know about it.

After hearing this, Yao Qisheng was shocked and suspicious. Hou Xuanyan explained: "This is Your Majesty of the current dynasty. This morning, I have declared the imperial edict. I am honored as the regent of the emperor's father."

Yao Qisheng's face was calm, but there was no waves, but his heart was already like a mirror. He stood up and saluted the little emperor. Jing You's most annoying was this trick. He said with an extremely impatient expression on routine work: "Flat."

After saying that, he turned around, raised his little face, and pouted, "I want to go out to play, I want to go out to play!"

Hou Xuanyan was frightened, slapped her little butt gently, and said, "I want to talk to me when I leave the palace, and I won't take you out if I say it wrong."

When Xiao Jingyou heard this, he nodded quickly and said, "I know, I know... I want to go out for fun."

Hou Xuanyan then said to the stunned Yao Qisheng: "Okay, you go to the Ministry of War tomorrow morning. After I go back, I will explain to the Ministry of War that you can go to Songjiang after you get the official position."

Yao Qisheng stood up and left. Hou Xuanyan looked downstairs, sighed, and continued parading in the streets with the restless little emperor.
