Chapter 926 Honoring the Regent

  Dadonghai, Luhuitou.

  Standing on the terrace of the villa on the top of Luhuitou Peninsula and looking to the north, you can clearly see the confluence of the East and West Rivers in Linchuan, forming a Y shape.

  Before the navy came, the slang fishing village here was called Sanya Village. After Qin Lang came, he changed his name to Sanya.

   Niu Jianhu came to say goodbye.

   "Saburo really won't go to Linyi to meet your old lover?"

   "I'm a Lingnan manager, what's the matter with going to a foreign country?" Qin Lang woke up naturally after falling asleep, holding a cup of coffee.

  Add milk, add sugar.

  Niu Jianhu thought it was something good at first, but after taking a sip, he vomited for a long time, "What the **** is this, why is it so bad?"

"coffee."

   "What the hell?"

   “It’s just a refreshing drink ground from coffee beans.”

   "If the beans are ground, that's soy milk, but soy milk doesn't taste like this."

  Qin Lang chuckled. Although coffee is ground from coffee beans, it is quite different from soy milk. The biggest difference is that the beans used in soy milk belong to the fruit in the pod, while the beans of coffee beans actually belong to the fruit stone. In addition, the grinding method is also different. Soy milk is ground and then brewed, and coffee is roasted and then ground and brewed.

   "I think they are all the same, and soy milk tastes better than this." Niu Jianhu still insisted.

The coffee thing was just an experiment of Qin Lang's accidental interest, because he accidentally discovered that there were these things on the ships of the sea merchants. These things should be brought by the sea merchants from the Indonesian archipelago, or they may be European seafarers. brought from Africa.

  They also regarded these coffee beans as spices, thinking that they could make a fortune in Datang, but after they were shipped to Lingnan, they were cold. After Qin Lang found out by accident, he was a little interested and bought them all on a whim, anyway, he bought them at a deal price. That hapless Hu businessman was so happy that he thought he had finally met someone who had been taken advantage of by him, so he rushed to make a move.

  After Qin Lang bought it, he studied it and found that these coffee beans were quite good. He used to drink coffee sometimes when he was writing, but he couldn't say he liked it more than he understood it.

   I tried to think about it, and the taste is okay.

   It's a little familiar from the previous life.

   It's just that after he recommended it to people around him, no one liked it.

  People who like to drink tea, those who are not used to the bitter taste, and those who don't even like tea, don't like this thing even more.

  So Qin Lang kept drinking for himself.

   This kind of thing is really not good to drink at first, but it contains caffeine, which is more addictive than tea. If you get used to drinking it, you won’t be refreshed if you don’t drink a cup in the morning.

   "I still like to drink, is there any wine?"

   "What do you drink early in the morning?"

   Niu saw the tiger but ignored him, went into the house to find a bottle of wine and poured himself a glass.

   "Your old lover is going smoothly in Linyi now, I have to hurry up and go there, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to catch up with the soup."

Fan Lin went back to Linyi and pulled up the tiger skin to make a big banner. It was very smooth in Linyi. The banner of Datang was very useful. Of course, the navy's battle flag and the mercenaries holding the navy's battle flag ,Better results.

"I heard that your old lover is very good at taking advantage of the situation. Not only does she use the title given to her by the saint every day, but she even copies countless letters of the canonized edict given to her by the saint, and then posts them everywhere to publicize them, and even deliberately makes them People spread the word about your relationship, and she even made you the regent of Linyi."

   "What the hell?" Qin Lang almost scalded his mouth.

   "The Regent of Linyi."

  Qin Lang smashed his tongue, "Rumours?"

"Linyi's rumors are flying all over the sky now, but in fact, there is no wind without waves. It was Fan Lin who canonized it herself, and it was sealed in front of many people in Datang and Linyi. Now you are the real Linyi Regent. "

  "The ministers of Linyi have given the title to the queen, Jaya Isanavarman, the queen named you the regent of Linyi, and then personally gave you the title Shili Mahamaravarman II!"

   "Do you know the meaning of these two titles?"

  Qin Lang shook his head, "I only know that there is a Varman in the title of King Linyi, which seems to mean armor?"

Niu Jianhu said proudly, "It turns out that there are still things in this world that you don't know. This Linyi country believes in religion and worships Buddhism, so the kings of all dynasties used Sanskrit names, and their monarchs used Varman as the title of the monarch, which means all territories. The meaning of the lord, the original meaning is indeed armor, so it is sometimes called the guardian of Linyi.

  The titles of kings are generally composed of titles and titles.

  For example, Jaya in the Queen’s title means victory, your Shili means sage, and Maha means greatness.

   "Then why do you call me Moro II?"

"This is a great compliment to you, because the founding king of Linyi, Qulian, is the guy who killed the county magistrate and rebelled, and finally established the Linyi Kingdom. His title is It is Shri Mahamara. So honoring you as Shari Mahamara II is a big deal."

  Saint·Great·Moro·Lord of all territories·Guardian of Linyi.

  This title is really cool, although Qin Lang always thinks of Motorola when he hears it.

   It's just that no one else is in Linyi, so what is the guardian of Linyi, the regent? Isn't this nonsense?

  Niu Jianhu smiled and said, "I can't help it."

   "What do you mean?" Qin Lang saw him smiling. The old cow patted him on the shoulder, "Sanlang, I have always regarded you as a brother, you and I should stop pretending, the queen's belly is getting bigger, and I can't bear it anymore, everyone wants to know the father of the queen's child Who is it, can they continue to cover it up? It is at such a critical moment that the queen has no choice but to make the biological father of the child public."

   "That person is you!"

  Qin Lang was silent.

   "Why do I seem to be the last one in the world to know?"

"Impossible." The old cow shook his head, "Actually, it's all made public now, and you don't need to hide it anymore. It's nothing, actually. It's okay for you to have such a romantic affair with the queen of Linyi. It’s nothing, it’s still a good story in the South China Sea now, the young Duke Wei of the Tang Dynasty met the beautiful exiled Princess Linyi, fell in love at last, and then Duke Wei sent troops to help Princess Linyi return home and restore her country, what a good story.”

   "But I really don't know. When we separated, didn't you hear that she was pregnant?"

"It must be yours. My people wrote me a letter from Linyi, saying clearly, the belly month, counting the time, it was conceived before returning to Linyi. Are you together every day?"

"The child will be born in a few months. The identity of the child's father is still very important. Now everyone knows that it is you, Duke Wei of the Tang Dynasty. Everyone in Lin Yi is very satisfied, and even the queen has more supporters. There are many. So it is normal to give the father of the future prince of Linyi a regent and the title of guardian. If you have a great father, you will naturally have a great son!"

  Qin Lang always felt a bit dumbfounded.

   Unexpectedly, there is another son?

  He didn't suspect that the child was not his own, but since Fan Lin was pregnant long ago, why didn't he tell him all the time, instead, he became the last one to know.

   The matter of the regent king is a bit wrong. After all, he is the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty. Now the letter from the regent king is unclear. Wouldn't it be Qin Lang's selfish desire for the Tang Dynasty to restore the Linyi royal family?

   Fan Lin did have selfish intentions in this matter, but there was nothing to blame.

   "Why don't you go to Linyi with me? Anyway, it's still cold in Guangzhou, and it's no fun to bask in the sun here every day. Go to Linyi to see your old lover, and wait for the baby to be born?"

  Qin Lang can imagine that Chang'an City must have known about these things by now. Hou Junji and Wei Zheng are probably writing their own bullets.

   At this time, Qin Lang still ran to Linyi, this is not giving someone a handle.

   Shaking his head, "Let's forget it, just go and take a look for me."

   "What are you looking at, does the child look like you?"

"It's for you to keep an eye on whether Datang's interests have been damaged. We, Datang, sent troops this time to help the Linyi vassal to restore the country. Naturally, we have to guarantee our interests. The Queen promised our concession, as well as the trade tariff agreement and so on. Now that you have gone, talk to the queen, you can consider a bay in the concession not far to the north of Linyipu, and use it as a naval base for the South China Sea Navy, where we can garrison, rest, and replenish."

  Qin Lang directly told Niu Jianhu the location of Da Nang in later generations, and asked him to talk about this place.

   "garrison?"

"The garrison is good for us and Linyi. With the Tang Navy fleet stationed there, no matter how many, as long as the Tang flag is flying, it will be a strong backing for Linyi, and it will have a strong deterrent effect on those who rebel. At the same time, we have a base there, which can further enhance the ability of the Nanyang Navy to patrol and **** the South China Sea. It will be of great help in combating smuggling and piracy, and it will also be of great help to our Datang's business and concession interests in Linyi. Assure."

Niu Jianhu curled his lips, "I think Sanlang, you are still thinking about your old lover, using our Tang Dynasty sailor as a gift for your old lover. No, maybe you are thinking about your son. "

  Qin Lang snorted, "I haven't given birth yet, who knows if it's a boy or a girl? Besides, I'm all for the public, for Datang."

   "I really don't want to go, have you considered it?"

   "I'll take your boat to Jiaozhou and meet Mr. Li."

   "It's all in Jiaozhou, why not just go south."

   "No."

Niu Jianhu gave Qin Lang an idea, "If you feel that it is inconvenient to go abroad, there is actually a solution. You can use the name of patrolling southern Xinjiang. After arriving in Jiaozhou, go south to Hengshan. By then, it will be far away from Linyipu. It's only a few hundred miles, and no one will know if you go there quietly. If you don't think it's inconvenient, you can just call the Queen over to meet at that time. It's a few hundred miles by sea, and it only takes a day or two at sea, which is very fast. "
