The calamity that had just sprouted was suppressed by old shopkeeper. Not only was it suppressed, in the end, the old shopkeeper even threw out a secret he had kept hidden for over a year in his heart. Xiao Letian was the secret dragon.

Everyone was shocked. Actually, everyone present had occasionally dreamed that one day Xiao Letian would reach the top and then become a king to pay his respects or something. However, most of these were just jokes made after drinking, after Xiao Letian's small lesson, the new army officers no longer believed much in the legends of the Middle Age.

But today, Fan Lian had thrown a heavy bomb at everyone. He knew that the brothers in the warehouse today were definitely trustworthy, and not only were these people promoted by Xiao Letian, their families and relatives were also living under the protection of the Discipline Hall's Wang Huaiyuan. There was no need to doubt their loyalty at all.

Since there was no worry about leaking information, the old shopkeeper smashed out the theory of hidden dragons that Ceng Guofan and Xiao Letian had once discussed. "You think I'm joking? Do you think I'm bragging to my young master? Do you think that I am just there to stabilize your morale? "

"Wrong, extremely wrong, those words were not from me, the person who said those words is a famous person in the continent, you all should have heard that he is Ceng Guofan!"

With a boom, all the officers present exploded. "Ceng Titou? Our mortal enemies? " Many of the officers were Heaven veterans, so they subconsciously adopted a hostile attitude.

"Be quiet!" Forgot your identities? You are now the new army of the Prime Minister. Those of you from the past have already died, throw all your grudges into the ocean, and other than following orders, don't think about anything else that you don't need. "

Liang Kun scolded them honestly, and each of them went on to listen to old shopkeeper's lecture.

"Brothers, I know that many of you have grudges with Ceng Guofan, but let the grudges go. This Ceng Titou is really talented, you must be convinced of this point! To be able to write a book like the《 Ice Mirror》, how can you not be a talent? "

Although Ceng Guofan was an enemy, there was no doubt about this person's ability.

"That night, I also did not know why Ceng Guofan's warning net had only let me go. Perhaps, he knew of my relationship with Xiao Letian. "It was on that day that I heard the word 'Hidden Dragon' …"

"What is a dragon? How many kinds of dragons were there? I'm not sure about this, nor did Great Marshal Zeng explain it clearly, but at least I know the difference between a dragon and a real dragon … In the imperial court of the Beijing, in the capital city of the Heavenly Kingdom, all those sitting on the throne room were True Dragons. Even if it was only for a day, he is still a True Dragon … "

"But the Hidden Dragon is ever-changing, according to the description of my Young Master and Ceng Guofan, anything that can affect the course of our national destiny, is a hidden dragon. Ceng Guofan is one, and my Young Master Xiao Letian is one as well."

Although Fan Lian had read before, he could not be considered a scholar. He could only roughly recount the details of the secret conversation he had that day.

"Our Prime Minister is a hidden dragon …" This is way too high and mighty... Didn't we become shrimp soldiers and crab generals by following Prime Minister? "

"That makes sense. What he said makes sense …" So Cao Cao is a hidden dragon? "Yes, yes, yes. There is nothing wrong with those shockingly powerful officials in history, and they are even more powerful than the emperor. If they aren't hidden dragons, then what is they?"

"That's right, maybe it's because of bad luck, that Hidden Dragon did not have the chance to turn into a True Dragon … There is another possibility, and that is that the hidden dragon is not willing to become the True Dragon. He would rather suffer grievances to protect the Essence of a country, just like how Grandpa Yue did! "

The more they talked, the more excited they became. In the end, they were close to counting when Xiao Letian would ascend the throne.

At this time, nothing happened to the old shopkeeper, he and Liang Kun looked at each other, and moved towards the corner to whisper in each other's ears.

"old shopkeeper, is this how you treat yourself? Although this helped to stabilize the morale of the troops, it would bring them quite a bit of trouble in the future! Even if they were all loyal ministers of the Prime Minister, it was hard to avoid someone getting drunk and talking or talking in their sleep to reveal this secret … "When the time comes, the news will spread to the other side of the road …"

"Ai …" If the Ryukyu were to be lost, even if we do not leak the secrets of Xiao Letian, it would not be much better. Since we are already forced to this point, I really cannot think of any kind of stable plan … "

At this moment, a burst of cheers came from the warehouse, "Right, you're right, the Prime Minister is a hidden dragon. How could a hidden dragon die so easily? How much more important is left for the Prime Minister to do? How could the Prime Minister die under the blade of a nameless soldier?"

"Long live! Long live the Prime Minister! " In the end, these dozens of people actually started shouting out like crazy, scaring the soldiers who were standing on guard around them into trembling.

It was impossible for Liang Kun and Fan Lian to deceive the Ryukyu officials for a secret meeting like this, but they had no way to change anything. The new army in the Ryukyu right now was not something they could go against.

Shang Tai sat next to the crackling bonfire, expressionlessly listening to Jin Changsen's report on his spy. The warm summer night had made the young king's heart turn cold.

"Your Majesty! You are going to make a decision. We don't have any intention to harm you, but we must guard against you! Only the heavens will know why these new army officers are gathered together discussing such outrageous matters! " Jin Changsen advised sincerely.

At this time, even Lin Yuanmiao, who was always so close to Xiao Letian, hesitated. "Brother Jin, your thoughts are too pessimistic, shouldn't we be in a situation now? The new army is His Majesty's new army, do you think they would dare to cause trouble? "

"Foolish! Of course, the Prime Minister Xiao has everything, but we do not know if the Prime Minister is dead or alive, do you know if these unruly and unruly young master soldiers have a fit of anger? " Jin Changsen's words left Lin Yuanmiao speechless.

Just then, Shang Tai spoke softly, "Defensive heart? Jin Qing, tell me, how should I defend against it? What kind of defense do we have? "

Jin Changsen looked at the darkness around him coldly and suddenly said in a low voice, "This depends on how we discuss it tomorrow. This subject does not dare to guarantee anything, but we definitely have a plan in our hearts … If what Gong Cheng said is all true, then we can definitely rely on the French army to protect us in the future! "

"What?" Do you, Jin Changsen, want to betray the nation? You want to cooperate with the French in the massacre of so many people? " Cai Mao's low voice came from the darkness, followed by the tired General's figure that appeared beside the bonfire.

"Your Majesty, your subject can use his head to guarantee that the new army will not betray, they are soldiers personally trained by the Prime Minister, you have heard of those little lessons before, the Prime Minister has always opposed the bloody change of dynasty, Prime Minister Xiao is definitely not Cao Cao Cao!"

Jin Changsen waved at Cai Mao with a bitter face: "Don't shout, don't shout. When did I say that the prime minister was going to rebel? What I am afraid of is that there will be a few fanatics in the new army, if we were to disrupt the peace talks, how many people will die in Ryukyu? "

"Besides, I didn't say I was going to surrender to the French right now. My, Jin Changsen's, ancestral home of the Ryukyu, how can I possibly harm the Ryukyu? The weak nations have no diplomacy. Back then, in order to survive, we could bear the hardships of the Japanese's rule, but can't we do the same in front of the foreigners today? "

Jin Changsen's words could be said to be loud and clear, as blood oozed out even after falling to the ground. The surrounding Ryukyu officials all turned red from listening to his words, but no one could refute him.

How could the fate of a weak nation be under his control? In this world, there was not so much discontent or discontent, and under the threat of life and death, it was better to just say it out loud to vent his anger.

Jin Changsen was not a capitulationist, he was just a politician who believed in power, living in his eyes was more important to his moral dignity, there was no such word as' shame 'in his political dictionary, continuing the task at the top of Ryukyu was more important than anything else.

"Sigh …" Cai Mao, the toughest of the Ryukyu's ministers also sighed deeply in the end as he had no choice but to lower his head.

It was a sleepless night, the discussions around tomorrow were countless people making preparations, Gong Cheng who was at sea was not sleeping either, drinking his bitter tea and staring at Na Ba, his mouth like a madman.

"Why isn't it chaotic yet? It was already the latter half of the night, why wasn't he in a mess? Damn it, has this group of heaven's remnants improved? He could actually hold it back? How is that possible? "

Who is Fan Lian? The tough bones of Jin Shang were known to be extremely protective, and for the sake of his daughter, he was able to fall out with his big brother … Who was Liang Kun? The remnants of heaven! He can hide it from others, but he can't hide it from me. Will he lower his head to me? "

"As for the other officers of the new army, had been practicing until he was like a proud rooster. He hasn't lost a single time since he became a soldier, and yet so many of them had died, how could they die?"

This was the first time Gong Cheng realized that the situation was already out of his control. His originally looping and looping plan had strangely loosened up by a bit, making him, who was a little crazy, feel very uncomfortable.

The water dog understood its master very well, so it smiled apologetically and said, "Master, don't worry, when I delivered the letter, Liang Kun was already extremely angry and had started scolding Cai Mao and the others. Both sides were almost about to fight … Now that there is no fire, maybe both sides are trying to build up their anger, and are suspecting that this kind of thing cannot be suppressed. The longer the fight goes on, the more serious it becomes! "

"Aiyo?" You brat, you've grown up! I really didn't train you for nothing... When the Ryukyu falls into my hands, I'll let you be a great general. I'll let you choose whether it's the army or the navy. "

If I were to become a slave, I would need to become a water army. Back then, I was scolded quite a few times by the sea cuttlefish, if I became an honorable water army now, wouldn't those people in the past be angered to death?

The water dog flattered Gong Cheng with a smile and poured a cup of tea for him. "Water Army is great, I can still help Master do some business later on.

"Hahaha, this brat's mouth is so sweet. I'll do it like this …" Master, I'll go sleep for a while. You keep an eye on that tyrant, if there's any movement, just call me! "

The water dog continued to attack. Master, please rest well. This servant will guarantee your safety! "
