[Plane] History of the struggle of the lords

Reached the island after two days.

At noon when the sun was the most venomous, a lush green island slowly appeared at the end of the water surface that seemed to have never changed in front of it.Seen from a distance, there are often migratory birds flying over the island, coupled with the dense forest on the island, which is almost the most ideal shooting location for the natural science columns of later generations.

After the appearance of this island, you can see other small islands scattered around the island one after another. Although they are not as big as the island that you can see at a glance, they all look pretty good.The merchant ship veered a bit and turned around towards another part of the island. Standing at the zenith, Wen Run pointed to the place where the channel would pass just now and said: "There are a lot of reefs over there. When I first came back, if there were not many Lun and the others have rich experience and avoided the past, I am afraid that the tattered merchant ship hit may not even return."

The closer you get, the more eye-catching the beauty of the island is. The huge winding beach is actually clear and clean white. A rather long wooden pier hastily been built directly on the sea surface. There are a few shadowy people looking at the pier. , and soon there was only one left, and the rest ran away.

Before Wen Le could figure out what this meant, he saw a few people who had left not long ago running back quickly. Behind them, a group of men dressed in heavy clothes came up, and the leader was a bearded man with disheveled hair. He took off his clothes while running, and happily waved the robe in his hand to the sky under Wen Le's dumbfounded gaze, and shouted at the same time: "Big brother!!!! Big brother!!!!!! Brother!!!!!!"

"..." Wen Le struggled for a while, then turned to Wen Run and asked, "Could this be Lian'er?"

This image is quite incongruous with a nickname like a child, but even though Wen Run is extremely awkward, he still can't unconscionably say that he doesn't recognize this person, so he can only sigh and answer with his forehead: "Obviously I His beard wasn't that long when he left..."

While talking, the boat approached the shore, Wen Lian gave a cheer, and threw the clothes in his hands far away, and the men who were also wearing the same clothes behind him rushed towards the clothes, as if they were such precious things Like a baby in my arms.

Wen Lian ran towards the boat while screaming, because he was too far away, Wen Le couldn't see clearly the expression on his beard.But soon there was a sound of footsteps stepping on the deck, and the next moment appeared in the direction of the stairs, and it was close to the zenith within a few strokes.

Wen Lian's voice was thicker and more powerful than when he was in Fuchun. When he yelled, the decibel made Wen Le's mind a little dazed: "Brother!!! ,Oh my god……"

The screaming stopped abruptly in the next second, Wen Lian maintained an exaggerated expression on his face and stood stupidly at the entrance of the Zenith, staring at the direction of Wen Le and Wen Run, and then stammered after a while: "Two ...Second brother?"

Wen Le frowned, and smiled very gently: "At least you can recognize me."

Wen Lian was too shy to come here. The second brother always paid more attention to cultivating his manners than the eldest brother, and sometimes he was punished to copy books when he didn't do well. He was most afraid of copying books.

Carefully looking at Wen Le's face from the corner of his eye, he really couldn't figure out what Wen Le's real mood was from this smiling expression, but he knew that if he didn't say hello now, he would be tossed for a while To make matters worse, I had no choice but to pluck up the courage to come forward to please La Wenle's hand, and said: "Second brother, my brother is in this remote place, and I miss you for a moment."

Wen Le pulled his beard with a cold face: "I miss you too, why don't you come all the way here for a while. You have changed more than I imagined, and you almost scared your brother and me to death just now. "

Wen Lian took a bitter look at Wen Run, and got a firm and disgusted shaking of the head, so he could only sob in his heart and promise, "It's just that I haven't had time to take care of it recently, if my second brother doesn't like it, I'll shave him off tonight... ..."

Wen Le sighed, stepped forward to hug him and kissed the fluffy face that was almost unrecognizable, and knocked his head resentfully: "I have learned from your elder brother for so long, why do I still have the slightest sense of sight?" Haven’t cultivated it? Your hair is originally curly. If it was straight, someone with a beard and a delicate beard would look better. If you dress up like this, no one will believe that you are the master of my Hou’s mansion. It’s better than Fu Chuncai The butcher who sells pig head meat in the farm is even thicker, do you want to change your career to butcher pigs or prepare to become a bandit?"

Wen Lian was kissed with a blushing face. He lowered his head and touched the back of his head, and said with some embarrassment, "It's so serious..."

"Go down, I'll watch him clean it up later," Wen Run pulled Wen Le's arm, "Get off the boat and get something delicious, you've lost a lot of weight these days."

Wen Lian immediately forgot what happened just now, and jumped high: "Oh! I said why the second brother is so thin and out of shape, I ordered people to kill chickens, pigs and sheep, and make a fresh big meal for the second brother. feast!"

Wen Le hurriedly stopped him, this carnivore might do bad things with good intentions: "Get more vegetables, the ones that are in season will be enough, don't worry about killing chickens and sheep."

Wen Lian was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the second brother, and ran away quickly with a serious face. Wen Le stared at his back, and sighed helplessly after a long time: "Why hasn't he changed at all?"

"You'll grow up," Wen Run walked with his arms around him, and couldn't help laughing out loud, "I don't think you look like a second brother, but a father. Married a daughter-in-law Lian'er will naturally mature, who hasn't come here like this?"

Wen Le rolled his eyes and praised him: "What you said is that I raised him as a son, and you are his mother."

Wen Run frowned, stopped, lowered his head slightly to stare at him, and moved his face closer and closer.

It wasn't until the tip of his nose touched the tip of his nose that he narrowed his eyes, and he put his hand on Wen Le's buttocks ambiguously and squeezed it gently: "If he wants to call us that, I don't have any objections as a brother. Do you want to mention to him at dinner that we will live as a family of three on this island in the future?"

In Wen Le's mind, the big and thick Wen Lian was holding a colorful lollipop, holding a wet pacifier in his hand, winking at him shyly and shouting "Abba", but Yong'er, who was only as high as his knees, stood there with a calm expression on his face. The side just nodded, Wen Lian's beard fluttered in the wind, and Wen Le couldn't help but burst out laughing.

……

Everything on the island was very different from what Wen Le had imagined. Not long after disembarking from the boat, he found a very high flood embankment not far from the beach. The lush trees on this flood embankment formed an The terrain is hilly, and a fairly wide road has been flattened underground. When they reached the embankment, there was a convoy waiting to meet them on the side of the road. After avoiding the cover of the lush trees, Wen Le discovered that although the island is small, the inside is Don't be fooled.

The coast is quite lively, along the entire circle of the road you can see densely built houses, and those men and women who look like local residents in sackcloth and straw sandals are busy with their own affairs, and they are somewhat familiar with the road spontaneously. They went to the pier to carry the goods, and some of them drove the ox carts in a hurry. These people were very respectful when they saw Wen Run, and both men and women would stop and bow to this side before leaving.

"The people who live here are the original residents of the island at the time, and the people who came from Fuchun live on the other side." Wen Run helped Wen Le onto the horse and explained: "There is also a market over there, and the cattle were driven just now. Many people who drive on the road are going to the market to exchange goods. Gold and silver things are not circulated here. If you have rice, fruits, meat and eggs, you can basically exchange for a lot of things. I didn’t plan to promote it here Gold and silver flow, and now they are left to their own devices."

Wen Le nodded, thought for a while but then said: "This is not a long-term solution."

"The gold mine will be dug out one day, and it can be changed in the future." Wen Run obviously understood Wen Le's concerns, he smiled and answered with confidence.

It took a lot of time to drive from one end of the small island to the other. When Wen Le, who was bumping in the carriage, began to feel uncomfortable again, he had arrived at the place he should have reached.

Wen Le got out of the carriage in a hurry, and before he could take a breath, he was shocked by what he saw for two seconds.

Originally, according to his thinking, this island is at best only excellent in minerals. After all, he is in the sea with no one to rely on. It is not a bad thing to live in a clean and generous house this time. Who knows that the occupant in front of him The mansion, which is huge on the ground and stretches for a very spectacular distance with vermilion walls, is actually no less than the Fuchunhou Mansion at first glance!

Wen Le frowned, tilted his head and thought about it carefully, only to realize that this is not what Fuchunhou's Mansion looks like?

The high walls, gates, plaques, and even the lion standing proudly at the entrance of the courtyard, although there are inevitably some discrepancies in details, but after a general look, it is really impossible to pick out the place that is inferior to the Hou's Mansion!

He suddenly turned his head and stared at Wen Run in surprise, how did this guy build such a house on this island?

Wen Run got off the carriage with a smile, and it was clear at a glance what Wen Le was thinking, but he didn't say anything, instead pretending to be ignorant, he spread his hands to Wen Le and said, "How?"

Wen Le pointed to the gate of the house, and then pointed to the direction of Fu Chun, who was coming by the boat, and couldn't hide his surprise: "How did you make it like this?"

Wen Run seemed to be very pleased with his expression, but he didn't answer. After ordering the groom to drive the carriage away, he stepped forward to hold Wen Le's hand and walked in: "It's probably not as delicate as Fuchun's, But I especially carefully ordered people to fix the house we live in, which is definitely not worse than your main house."

As soon as you enter the mansion, there are neatly arranged garden decorations, rockery and flowing water, and the decoration is more atmospheric than the Hou's mansion in Fuchunnei. People walking around in it obviously become very cautious when they see Wen Run , almost all dodged far away, but the necessary etiquette was still done.The further you walk in, the more careless the details of the house startled Wen Le. He didn't remember that the merchant ship sailing from Fuchun had ever carried these things. How do you do all this?

After entering the inner courtyard, Wen Lian's loud voice became clear again. Wen Le heard him yelling "Have you cleaned it up?" Good housekeeper, can't help but have some black lines.

He came back to his senses, pulled his warm hand, and asked him, "Do you want to visit the local chief?"

"Chief?" Wen Run's expression was blank for a moment, and then as if he just realized it, he pursed his lips and said, "No need to go, that tribe has been disbanded long ago."

"When did it happen?" Wen Le only heard the news. The tribe had to change their chief or merge into other tribes, or they would be wiped out. How could they be disbanded for no reason?

Wen Run smiled at him: "I thought it was not important when I came last time, so I didn't tell you. Go in, take a shower and then have lunch. After so many days of being tired all the way, You need to rest well."

Wen Le had no choice but to be fooled by him, but he still remembered that Wen Run was not telling the truth. After taking a bath and eating, and taking advantage of Wen Run's work on the island when he was not in the house, he pulled Talk warmly.

Wen Lian seemed to be terribly afraid that Wen Le would talk about his beard, so he sat very well. When he talked about the tribe on the island, he was taken aback for a moment, then stared suspiciously into Wen Le's eyes and asked, "Brother didn't tell the second brother?" Brother you?"

Wen Le grinned maliciously at him.

However, Wen Lian did not have the usual exaggerated reaction, but rubbed his hands hesitantly. After Wen Le's repeated questioning, he lowered his head and whispered: "The tribes on the island gathered together last time and suddenly attacked with iron spears. In our fleet, several good players were killed in the team, and the eldest brother ordered them all to be arrested and sent to Lindao... I haven't seen those people since then, and I think... they shouldn't be alive."

Wen Le was there as stupid as if he had been struck by lightning, no wonder he wanted to hide it from him. If the previous him knew about this matter, he would definitely quarrel with Wen Run severely.

But now he doesn't have so much leisure time, and he thinks differently from before. If in the past, he would probably think that Wen Run is a bastard who is insensitive and treats human life like nothing because of this matter, but now what he thinks in his heart What he thought about was whether Wen Run ruled out all dissidents, whether it was just as simple as mining.

Wen Run on the island is just like Wen Le in Fuchun. When he landed on the shore, he got busy without touching the ground. When the sun was about to set, he rushed home in a hurry, and he was accompanied by many black people. The tall and strong man looked like he was reporting to work.Wen Le didn't recognize these people at first, but then suddenly realized that this wasn't Wu Yi Wu San Wu Shiliu who was suntanned?Some of Wen Run's capable generals had been incorporated into the guards by Wen Le since he saw the light, while the other part Wen Run left behind, Wen Le hadn't seen for a long time.It turned out that he came to the island and played a role like Mai Lingtong.

Wen Le had a problem with them before, but now that they met, the other party was also quite surprised why he was on the island, and the volume of reporting work to Wen Run suddenly became smaller. After hesitating for a long time, some things that should be said The matter probably swallowed back to his stomach, and he left directly.

Wen Run helplessly comforted Wen Le and said: "That's how they are, don't take it personally. These people have followed me for many years. If it is not necessary, I can't be harsh on them at present. When I get familiar with them in the future, they will always will change attitudes.”

"Did this group of people be given to you by the crown prince? Or the king of the county?"

Wen Run knew that Wen Le was not angry, and smiled gratefully: "It was given by the prince."

Then it's no wonder that the people who come out of the prince's subordinates are the ones who are not arrogant and arrogant. They probably regard Wen Run as the son of the dragon in their hearts, and their background in the Wen family is indeed high in their eyes.

He sighed, didn't intend to say this, and directly changed the subject: "Why didn't you tell me about the tribal turmoil on the island?"

Wen Run was taken aback, thought of something at random, and frowned helplessly: "Did Lian'er tell you?"

Wen Le was noncommittal.

Wen Run was a little embarrassed to be stared at by him, and after a long silence, he said softly: "It's okay to tell you, I'm just worried that you will misunderstand me. More than 130 people in the tribe held up spears to snatch the goods from our merchant ship , their spears were stained with venom, I didn't know it at first, I only ordered the caravan to defend, but unexpectedly killed them in vain. I was so angry at that time, I killed many, and trapped all the living ones on Lindao. Seeing that they are still ambitious and intending to take revenge, I was worried that the night would be long and the dream would be more, so I used explosives to kill them all..."

"Just like that? Just because they snatched merchant ships?" Instead of taking advantage of the situation, did they come across an opportunity?

Wen Run nodded, but his face became stiff from his direct gaze, and finally he could only sigh and bow his head in surrender: "I want to raise soldiers."

"Raising soldiers?" Wen Le laughed out loud as soon as he flipped his head. It turned out that he had guessed rightly. He directly touched a cup in his hand and smashed it angrily. He stood up and cursed coldly, "You fucking Did you discuss it with me before making a decision!? If I don’t ask, will you never tell me for the rest of your life?”

"Don't be like this..." Wen Run was so worried, he knew that Wen Le would lose his temper so he didn't say anything, but he couldn't hide it from him, so he could only hold his hand and explained: "I'll bring you here Island, I just want to tell you... I just don't know how to bring it up."

Wen Le didn't believe it, and just sneered: "I've never been able to play with you."

"Why am I playing with you!" Wen Run was in a hurry, and hurriedly saw him pulling towards her arms, but Wen Le's attitude was unusually stubborn, so she could only explain hastily: "I'm just worried about your wild thoughts, look at you Now that I know it, is it half different from my guess? What do you think I am raising soldiers for?"

Wen Le lowered his head and choked up speechlessly, almost not wanting to look at him.

He really didn't want to guess what Wen Run raised his soldiers for, and arranged everything privately and carefully on this island thousands of miles away from Fuchun.He has only come to the island for the third time, and he has developed to the point where there are almost no shortcomings. Was he planning everything from the beginning?

Where did he get so many resources from a fixed merchant ship every time he came back?Could it be that another route was opened up behind his back?

I could only hear Wen Run continue to speak: "The current situation in Dadu is treacherous, and the emperor seems to be in a stable state, but you don't know what he has in mind when admonishing the county king. At the beginning, he and the prince were mixed with honey, and he betrayed the prince for the new emperor in a blink of an eye. I'm just worried that he won't be able to keep his word, and suddenly betray my life experience to the emperor. The emperor is determined not to tolerate me surviving, if he has an army, what will you do?"

Wen Le made sense when he thought about it. He is a more rational person, and when he felt that what the other party said seemed reasonable, he immediately let go of his anger, and after thinking about it, he replied: "If it's only for this, why do you need to hide it from me?"

Just then Wen Run thought that he had at least guessed this, but then he was dumbfounded: "I was afraid that you would get angry so I kept it from you. Don't you think I want to covet your minerals?"

Wen Le was a little guilty, he really thought so at first.

Wen Run immediately became unhappy: "What kind of heart do I have for you, you should understand something, am I the kind of person who values ​​things outside of me?"

"You make sense!" Wen Le frowned, "If you are really afraid that I will misunderstand, then don't hide from me such imaginative things! If I don't know you, I won't ask you today , but return safely to Fuchun and prepare to deal with you! Can my detonator fire be hidden from you?"

Wen Run pinched his nose, and said in a low voice, "I was just in a hurry, it really hurts that you thought of me like that just now."

"That's my fault, and you're not right. You should have discussed it with me from the beginning. If you had mentioned our relationship at the beginning, I wouldn't have thought so much about it." Wen Le apologized readily, Still not very happy, he remembered the question just now, and immediately asked again, "I don't remember that the merchant ships that came to the pirates ever transported these from the island. Could it be that you brought craftsmen without telling me?"

Wen Run said: "That's not true. Not all the ships of the pirates who were sent back to Fuchun were destroyed. I took some to Fuchun, and the rest went north to several docks in Fuzhou. Things come from those places."

"It was hidden from me again."

Wen Run immediately had nothing to do. He lowered his head and let him complain for a moment, then suddenly whispered: "Why didn't you hide something from me?"

Wen Le jumped up with a swipe like a cat whose tail has been stepped on, and his voice was high-pitched: "Do you want to settle the old score!?"

Wen Run hated himself for being cheap, but the uneasiness that had been deeply buried in his heart suddenly became active because of his attitude. He could hardly control the complaint in his heart. He stared sideways at Wen Le and said, "I believe in you, then I have never asked. You taught me the Yi language of Duolun and the others. I have nothing to say to them. The starch powder for road construction in Fuchun, the black cloth you threw on the roof, and you have so many jewels for no reason. , I know everything, and I also understand that you should not tell me something."

Wen Le didn't know what to think of, and his face suddenly turned pale. Maybe it was the mall or warehouse that he had been reluctant to use more out of secrecy?Even his face and soul are completely different from those in Dadu.In short, he shut his mouth, and suddenly realized that he also had some reservations, and he was completely guilty.
