When Qin Qian saw that Su Tang wanted to use his own big ship, he immediately reminded her that Su Tang's ship was a long-distance voyage. It took a long time to move, required a lot of sailors, and was not suitable for offshore navigation.
This kind of offshore ship is in a hurry to travel, so only large merchants like the Qin family have reserves and can be ready to set off as quickly as possible.
Time is urgent now. Seeing Tan Qian's help, Su Tang will not refuse, "Thank you very much!"
"Why are you being polite to me? Then get ready and I'll make arrangements right away!" Tan Qian said to Su Tang, then turned around and went out to make arrangements.
Su Tang asked Jiang Nian and Su Lan to pack their plain clothes and come out. Luo Xingchen also followed. She had a special status and arranged everything by herself. When it was done, she came back to find Su Tang.
When she entered, she saw Su Tang writing a letter. She had just finished writing "You are here" when she entered.
"Well, I'll go with you." Luo Xingchen was worried about Su Tang, but he was even more worried that something might happen to Duke Pei suddenly. The situation in the capital might be more dangerous than they thought. Pei Xuan is probably the only one who can understand the situation in the capital at the moment.
"You can't go with me." Su Tang could tell at a glance what Luo Xingchen was thinking. After hearing her request, he directly refused.
When Luo Xingchen heard this, he immediately refused, "Why, I think..."
"I understand what you are worried about, and I am worried too. However, it is the end of spring and the beginning of summer. You and I both know very well that Japanese pirate nuisance mostly occurs in winter.
Just because they live on a small island without enough arable land and food, they come out to plunder. This is not the time for Japanese pirates to be active. At most, there will be small waves of activity.
Without a large-scale war, a general who has experienced hundreds of battles can be killed in battle? "
Su Tang asked his servants to guard the outside and looked into Luo Xingchen's eyes. He said it very straightforwardly. Duke Pei was not a fool. His influence in the army was so great that the old emperor was afraid that his great achievements would overwhelm the emperor. He was transferred from the northwest border to the capital and made an idle Duke.
But the army was unwilling to do so. They had always had objections, and the old emperor couldn't suppress him, so he replaced the old emperor with a new string, and sent Duke Pei to the coast to fight against the Japanese.
Anyone who has read a little will understand that land battles and naval battles are two different things. Duke Pei is obviously good at land battles, but the old emperor brought him to the coast and said that he had no evil intentions. Who would believe it.
After that, they even set their sights on Pei Xuan, the only son of Duke Pei. If Pei Xuan hadn't been ignorant at first, then learned to be smart and pretended to be a fool, and then was tricked by Su Tang into a reputation as a psychopath, I'm afraid that Duke Pei would still be alive. Pei Xuan has already died. In fact, Pei Xuan almost died before.
As a result, Pei Xuan is now doing well and working in the army, and his reputation as crazy has not affected his appeal in the army. Su Tang doesn't know what happened in the capital, but the death of Duke Pei is definitely not that simple. , and the situation in the capital is definitely complicated and dangerous now.
Although Luo Xingchen didn't say it, she and Murong Zhao had been communicating with each other for a year or two. Although they were in the name of friends, they both knew in their hearts whether they were friends or not. Whether they could succeed or not was a matter of the future. , Su Tang didn’t dare to say anything.
But under the current situation, it is impossible for Luo Xingchen not to worry about things in the capital. Su Tang can understand why he wants to go with her to see Pei Xuan to find out more, because she herself is actually worried.
