    ?The parties concerned kept the conversation that night secret, and later generations could only rely on guesswork to invent various versions.  Whether the third son of the Shen family killed his ancestors, and whether Shen Mo used the topic to avoid the succession of his father and son, is also the top of the five mysteries that have lingered behind Shen Mo for a long time, and it has supported many historians.  However, at that time, this was still an unknown secret, just like the ocean-going ship sailing slowly on the East China Sea, not attracting attention in the billowing smoke and dust rolled up by the wheels of history.

    This three-story sea ship 'Ningbo' is one of the ten super passenger ships under the Royal Second Escort Company. Its operating route is from Da Nang, the 14th Chief Secretary of Ming Dynasty, the Chief Envoy of Annan, to Asia.  The largest port city, Nanzhili Shanghai Prefecture.  This is also recognized as a golden passenger route, so the parent company has equipped it with the largest and most luxurious sea-going ships.  Different from the previous practice of focusing on freight and not considering the comfort of the passengers, the builder of this sea-going ship put all its strength on creating a luxurious and comfortable space.  It has a luxurious restaurant spanning three decks, and ten first-class cabins are independent two-story suites with fine wood paneling, high-end furniture and other high-end decorations suitable for the ship.  The floor was covered with expensive Persian rugs, and the wooden tables and chairs were too heavy to lift.

    Even the forty high-class cabins are all independent suites, and the bathrooms are also separate. The decoration is not as luxurious as the first-class cabins, but it is also much more luxurious and comfortable than the top cabins on other ships.  These fifty luxury cabins, together with the restaurant, Chu Pavilion, casino, stage, and gymnasium for distinguished guests, occupy the three floors above the deck, and its spaciousness and comfort can be imagined.  Of course, the cost of the boat is several times higher than that of other boats, but it is still hard to get a ticket. Usually, it needs to be booked several months in advance to make the trip.

    It is said that the lowest deck is the ordinary cabin, with 20 cabins per room, which is no different from other ships, and of course the ticket price is also cheap.  Most of the passengers are immigrants who plan to build a new life in the Indochina Peninsula, or immigrants who return to their hometowns to visit relatives, small businessmen, etc., but the bottom floor is not connected to the upper three floors, so neither side can feel the existence of the other.

    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

    The reason why Ningbo is so popular is that it breaks the relatively closed environment of boarding and expands the activity space of passengers to public areas such as restaurants and gambling halls. This not only makes the journey no longer boring, but also brings people  Created an excellent networking opportunity To be successful, you must first cultivate your network.  Passengers in the first class and premium class are either rich or expensive, and the last one is the big shopkeeper of a multinational company. It is not easy to see them on weekdays, but during this half-month journey, everyone can see each other without looking up, which can be described as the golden distance  Chance.  Therefore, no matter how high the price is, some people are willing to pay the bill.

    The journey is long, and people really need partners. They meet each other day and night, and it is easy to get closer. After a few days of sailing, the passengers get to know each other well.  Playing songs every night, never tired of it.

    This day coincides with the sixteenth day of the winter moon, and the yellow-orange full moon hangs over the sea, reflecting the vast expanse of blue waves, which naturally gives people an excuse to have a feast.  Today's host is Lu Xianggong, who lives in Tianzi No. A. He is a close descendant of the Lu family in the west of Zhejiang.  Industries are spread all over the island, and the business scope ranges from spices and medicinal materials to sugar rice, from raw silk timber to gemstone mines, which can be said to be all-encompassing.  Moreover, he also married the sister of the king of Siam as his wife, and became the businessman of Siam, the largest country in Central South China.

    However, what everyone on board valued the most was not his status as Siamese uncle, but his status as a child of the Lu family.  It has been nearly twenty years since the Yan family was expelled, and the Lu family was added to the Nine Great Families.  Although it is a backward among the Nine Great Masters, it is one of the Southeast Nine Great Masters after all!

    ?The nine great masters in the southeast seem to have nothing in the hearts of ordinary people.  But in the hearts of the upper-middle-level officials, gentry, and wealthy businessmen, they are absolutely superior.  There is a popular saying in the gentry class, which is "the surname north of the Huaihe River is Zhu, and the surname south of the Huaihe River is Shen."  ¡¯ This Shen is naturally the elder Shen Ge who has been missing for many years, and no matter how powerful the elder Shen Ge is, he cannot control the southeast by himself. He realizes his will through the nine great masters.

    When Shen Ge disappeared, the prestige of the southeast naturally fell into the hands of the Nine Families. It is said that the Nine Families have a very secret council, which is an organization that coordinates and unifies the opinions of the Nine Families.  This council is the highest power in the southeast. No one dares to disobey the decisions it makes, and what it wants to do will definitely be done.  Even the border governors of the southeastern provinces, the first thing they do when they take office is to bow to the pier. If they don¡¯t fall into the eyes of the nine masters, they¡¯d better go directly to the Shu and resign, otherwise the end will be ugly.

    the"Sure enough, brother Yutian can't be troubled."

    Brother Yutian shook his head and said with a smile: "I'm old, I can't change my mind."

    ?The next two couldn't answer, so they obediently accepted the punishment, and the third thin man said to him: "Zang Wuzhong, just in case, the wind is like a dancer. Fangfeng!"

    "Good!" People cheered one after another: "Li Yuanwai is worthy of being a Jinshi, and his knowledge is solid."

    Member Li smiled modestly and said: "I'm ashamed, I'm about to return all the four books to the sage Confucius." He was a Jinshi in Fujian in the fifth year of Longqing.  It's a poor county, and even if you were killed, you couldn't complete the task, so you simply hung up the crown and went back to your hometown, and started to manage goods like Tao Zhugong.  Twenty years ago, this must have been a big news, but in the southeast today, there is nothing unusual about it. Abandoning Confucianism is the norm. "An Ping Le Dao" is no longer the personality concept of scholars.  Scholars who can become rich in business will also be looked up to.  Of course, old-fashioned people will still sigh: "The world is going downhill."

    Li Yuanwai finished the conversation, and there was a fat headed and big-eared Boss Hu below. Everyone was waiting to see his jokes, but he laughed and said: "If you don't know, you don't know. Mother ordered it. Know your mother." After speaking, he confessed: "  It happened to be right."

    "I told you to escape a catastrophe." Everyone laughed.

    After a round, half of the people came up and half of them drank.  It's time for Brother Yutian to issue an order, he smiled and said: "Then use the Four Books to guess the riddle. I will come up with one first, 'born to be able to speak', and type a sentence from the "Four Books."

    "I'll drink directly!" The next one surrendered directly, and then said to his own: "Brother Sima, you can drink together too."

    "I have it!" Brother Sima had a flash of inspiration, and said excitedly, "But 'Zi Silu'?"

    "How do you say it?" Everyone asked with a smile.

    "It's strange that you don't speak, isn't it strange that this person is 'born to be able to speak'?" Brother Sima said proudly.

    Many people shouted Miao, Lu Xianggong couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of tea, coughed quickly, and covered it up.

    "Isn't it right?" Brother Sima said with wide eyes.

    "It can also be explained." Brother Yutian smiled.

    "This mystery is too convincing," the young man behind him couldn't help laughing and said, "'Born to speak' is the 'Zi Chan Day', how is it better than yours?" The voice was as beautiful as a silver bell.

    Brother Sima thought about it, and said with a naive smile: "It's much stronger." He wanted to drink as a fine, but was spared by Brother Yutian and said, "Just say something."

    However, when the young man got in trouble, he still messed up the order and couldn't go on, so everyone clamored to punish him.  All the people here are sharp-minded people, and they have already seen that this young man is a woman, but they insisted on dressing up as a man, so they took the opportunity to make things difficult for her.

    "Anyone who says disorderly orders will definitely accept punishment." The young man didn't bother them and said, "I can still counterattack." The meaning of counterattack is that she challenges the whole table alone. If she wins, everyone at the table will drink.  If she loses, she drinks the whole table by herself¡ª¡ª
