Chapter 1111 I'm actually hoping for some rebels!

"Shouldn't we deal with the mess left by the Pu family remnants?"

"We can't ignore the situation in Yizhou either."

Yang Shaofeng smiled and presented Zhu Biao with the bill: "Especially these officials and gentry in Jiangnan, their messy affairs need to be dealt with even more, right?"

"For example, the Japanese pirates and sea pirates."

"That is, the Dengzhou fleet set up, and those short and ugly Japanese soldiers steamed thousands of Japanese pirates alive in Dengzhou Prefecture."

"Otherwise, what do you think the coastal areas of Jiangnan would become?"

Yang Shaofeng clicked his tongue and said sarcastically, "Most likely it's because the pirate problem is very serious, the people are struggling to make a living, and the court is busy fighting the Hu Yuan, so it can't spare the time to deal with the pirates. There's no other way but to ban the sea for now."

"Of course, it's hard to say how long this 'prevention' will last or when the sea ban will be lifted."

"What if Hu Yuan is dead but doesn't actually die?"

"What if Hu Yuan is actually able to buy what they want from the Dengzhou market?"

"I have never heard of anyone in the world who cannot buy anything with money."

"Take this mess of Nuerhuo, for example."

"I once heard a wise man say that when you find a fragrant maiden in your house, it means that you have hidden countless fragrant maidens in your house."

"If even an insignificant family like the Yang family dares to engage in the practices of the slave firemen, I don't believe that the high-ranking officials and gentry in Jiangnan wouldn't dare to do the same."

"Another thing is that Kong Xixue and Kong Xilu will be arriving in Quanzhou soon, and the matter of revising the Analects cannot be delayed."

"..."

Yang Shaofeng kept making sarcastic remarks, while Zhu Biao was completely bewildered.

These individual, messy things are better kept separate from each other; when they're all put together, they're enough to give you a terrible headache.

So, did I just lose my mind and provoke my brother-in-law?

……

The joys and sorrows of human life are not shared.

While Zhu Biao was suffering from a terrible headache, Li Mingchen and Chang Sheng were laughing so hard their faces were practically rolling on the floor.

"They've finally rebelled!"

Li Mingchen paced back and forth, his face full of excitement. "I thought these officials and gentry were all cowards, but I didn't expect them to have some backbone!"

Chang Sheng, holding a teacup, chuckled twice and then echoed, "Yeah, it wasn't easy. We finally forced these bastards to rebel."

At this point, Chang Sheng's face showed a hint of pride: "The key is that my brother-in-law and your master are not here. We are the only ones to share the spoils among the rebels. Anyone else can share the spoils among the rebels."

Li Mingchen unconsciously replied, "That's right," but then stopped and looked up at Chang Sheng: "What do you mean, 'just the two of us to share'? I'm the Fujian Inspector, and you're the Penghu Inspector. How could it be your turn?"

Chang Sheng was stunned for a moment, then said with a dark face, "Do you want to take it all for yourself?"

Li Mingchen sneered, pointed to himself, and then to Chang Sheng: "I am the Fujian Inspector, and you are the Penghu Inspector."

"It is my duty to quell the rebellion of the officials and gentry in Fujian."

"You'll only be involved if there's a rebellion in Yizhou, understand?"

Chang Sheng's face darkened even more. He snorted coldly and said angrily, "Do you want to hear what nonsense you're spouting?"

“If we’re talking about official rank, we’re both patrol inspectors. This task of suppressing the rebellion should have been my brother’s, not ours.”

"Let's get things done while my brother doesn't know, and we can each get some credit for it."

"You want to get rid of me and take it all for yourself? Then don't blame me for exposing you to the authorities!"

Li Mingchen's eyes darted around, and he said, "Then how about this, we'll divide the responsibilities according to jurisdiction: the land will be mine, and the sea will be yours."

Chang Sheng flew into a rage, pointing at Li Mingchen and shouting, "Do you think I don't know my place?!"

Seeing that he couldn't fool him, Li Mingchen simply changed his approach: "How about this, I'll handle the suppression of the rebellion, and I'll add your name as the Penghu Inspector later, so it'll count as a contribution, how about that?"

Chang Sheng snorted coldly and said, "Not so good!"

Seeing the two getting angrier and angrier as they argued, Li Qi, who happened to be in Tongan County to see if he could get some freebies, suddenly perked up.

"The rules of the martial world, no, the rules of our Great Ming Dynasty," Li Qi confidently convinced Li Mingchen and Chang Sheng: "If you can't reason with them, just fight. Whoever wins is right. That's how it's always been in the court."

"If you ask me, there's no point in you two arguing like this. Why don't you just take action and decide the winner before Mao-ge gets the news?"

"By the way, no matter who wins between you two, you have to leave me some of the rebels you capture. Yizhou is short of people."

"..."

Li Mingchen and Chang Sheng didn't believe a word of Li Qi's nonsense.

If such a ridiculous rule really existed in the Ming Dynasty court, the first person to be beaten to death would probably be the Duke of Han.

However, when they thought about how their soldiers were eager for battle merits, and considering that the two of them would not get anywhere by arguing, Li Mingchen and Chang Sheng suddenly had the idea of ​​"why not fight first and then talk about it"

Then, Chang Sheng threw a punch at Li Mingchen and shouted, "Either we each have half, or it's all mine. It can't all be yours!"

Li Mingchen blocked Chang Sheng's fist and angrily said, "What do you mean, 'this junk' is yours!"

"I just told you, I'll kill the people and you'll take the credit, it's your own fault for not wanting to do it!"

"I've fought so many wars over the years, and I've never seen such a fool as you!"

Chang Sheng dodged Li Mingchen's punch, then kicked Li Mingchen with his back leg, cursing, "I can kill him myself, I don't need you to let me!"

"Besides, you've been playing for so many years?"

"How old are you, Krupp, this year?"

"Have you been fighting for as long as I have?"

Li Qi watched Li Mingchen and Chang Sheng with a smile, occasionally encouraging them: "Brother Sheng, steal his peaches!"

Krupp attacked his lower body!

"Push! Use your strength!"

"If you two can't decide a winner soon, Mao Ge'er and the others will be here!"

"..."

Li Qi's reckless actions fueled the fire, and Li Mingchen and Chang Sheng gradually developed a real rage.

Li Mingchen threw a punch at Chang Sheng's head. Chang Sheng raised his arm to block, but Li Mingchen used the momentum to change his move and smashed his right elbow directly into Chang Sheng's head.

"This humble servant may not be able to defeat Chang Mao, but he can certainly defeat you, Chang Sheng?"

"You still dare to call me 'Master'? You didn't beat me enough!"

"If I let you handle the case with those murderers from the Penghu Patrol and Inspection Division, how am I supposed to explain it to my men!"

"...Listen to me, take your soldiers and go back to Penghu. Just help Brother Qi catch some savages and that's it!"

Chang Sheng blocked Li Mingchen's elbow strike, and while kicking Li Mingchen, he shouted, "Go ahead and do it! Anyway, I get a share of this!"

Li Qi shouted loudly, "There are no savages in Yizhou! I'm actually hoping for some rebels!"
