Yang Su and the others didn't know how to speak, and they were a little embarrassed for a while, but fortunately, the middle-aged monk was used to seeing big scenes, and he arched his hand, "Yao Guangxiao has seen two, according to the crew, the two are immortals?"

There is no way to claim to be an immortal, the two of them carry a bunch of munitions, wearing strange costumes that are completely inconsistent with the trend of this era, and the hairstyle is also completely non-mainstream in this era, no matter what they claim, it will cause all kinds of suspicions and speculations, but it is the easiest to disguise themselves as immortals, anyway, no one has ever seen immortals in this era, and Yang Pingfan, a freak, also has the ability to disguise himself as an immortal.

Yang Pingfan was stunned on the side, Yao Guangxiao, the black-clothed prime minister, Yao Guangxiao, didn't he accompany the Yongle Emperor in Nanjing, why did he follow Zheng He to Nanyang.

Su Yu next to her was neither humble nor arrogant, she put her hand on her waist and made a blessing, her posture was elegant and standard, "Yes, this immortal is Mazu, this is the general of the East China Sea Dragon King, Haotian God Zhier and others went to the West, and the road was treacherous, so I sent the two of us to temper our hearts and help each other." ”

Mazu, that is the god that the majority of people on the southeast coast believe in, especially the sea crew, but also regard Mazu as the guardian saint of the sea, in order to cover up the fact that Yang Liang and the two people came to cover up their own secret fishing, they have long publicized the two of them are immortals everywhere, and now the crew in the cabin saw Su Yu's graceful and solemn appearance, and they had already believed it for 6-7 points, and then heard Su Yu say it himself, and suddenly boiled, and couldn't help but bow his head and worship, Yao Guangxiao coughed twice before stopping.

"Since the girl claims to be an immortal, can she have a certificate?" Yao Guangxiao's tone was full of suspicion, Su Yu knew that this black-clothed prime minister who instigated the four elders of the Zhu family to rebel and finally succeeded was very extensive, and he had touched Confucianism, Taoism, and interpretation, and he didn't believe in strange powers, and it was a little difficult to fool him with a few words, so he set his eyes on Yang Pingfan, the meaning of that look was very clear, and within three seconds, he believed that the two of us were immortals who went down to inspect the people.

Yang Pingfan sighed, walked to the hatch, looked into the distance, and said to Yao Guangxiao after a while, "Someone on the ship in the distance is pushing pai gow, and the one who won said that the money he earned tonight was enough for him to marry Cui'e." ”

Yao Guangxiao was stunned for a moment, there was indeed a warship shining with stars and candles in the distance that Yang Pingfan was pointing to, but the distance was at least three miles away, on the periphery of the fleet, could this person really have the ability to clairvoyance and ears?

He commanded the little colonel next to him, and after a while, a clipper boat sailed towards the warship, according to the ancient saying, the little colonel came back with a few people after about two pillars of incense, saying that these small flags were gambling on the warship, Yao Guangxiao asked Yang Pingfan's words, and a few people thought that they were being stared at by the Jinyi guards who were placed, and they were suddenly trembling with fright, and they recognized everything.

Yao Guangxiao shook his brows, could it really be that Mazu Niangniang and his guards clairvoyance Shunfeng ear descended to earth? But I heard that clairvoyance Shunfeng ear is two people, when did it become one?

Of course, it is impossible to fool the black-clothed prime minister with this kind of trick, Yang Pingfan told the news of the typhoon found in the east during the day, and there was an uproar, you must know that even in ancient times without satellites, the old fishermen can judge the direction of the weather from the clues based on experience, now is not the season when typhoons are raging, but there is a typhoon inexplicably, if what Yang Pingfan said is true, the consequence is that the fleet will suffer a catastrophe.

But Yang Pingfan's words can't be taken seriously, many of the sailors in the fleet are recruited from the old fishermen, and they are very sensitive to this, so he bowed to Yang Liang and the others, this time he was a lot respectful, and said some scenes, to the effect that the greeting was not thoughtful, please forgive me, it is getting late, please move to the treasure boat to rest, tomorrow is making the adult personally interview the two immortals.

The two of them were respectful and obedient, and then moved to the treasure ship, which was indeed as recorded with nine masts, forty-four feet long and eighteen feet wide, and it was not a problem to run on it. Yang Pingfan quietly pulled Su Yu and asked, "Didn't Yao Guangxiao become the prime minister in Nanjing?

Su Yu said, "It's the seventh year of Yongle, that is the third time Zheng He went to the West, they set sail from Taicang Liujiagang, not only Yao Guangxiao followed, Fei Xin, Ma Huan and others also came together, they will arrive in Vietnam, Malaysia, India and other places, on the way back to visit Mount Ceylon, which is today's Sri Lanka, considering that they are anchored in the Zhongsha Islands, oh, now Shixing Shitang, that should be to complete the visit to Champa and prepare to go to Java and Boni." ”

While talking, the two of them went to each cabin under the guidance of the entourage, and Yang Pingfan was stunned to find that there were maids serving.

It's no wonder that Yang Pingfan was surprised, after all, in ancient times, women were not allowed to board ships except for special passenger ships.

That is, the so-called "there are women with you, and the navigation is not good". In the eyes of the ancients, women were too heavy with yin energy, and it was very unlucky for them to be on the boat. The so-called yin qi is too heavy, of course, nonsense, the real reason is that the physiological characteristics of women are not suitable for long-term boarding, and the other is that the boat is a closed space, and the existence of women can easily detonate the accumulated male hormones and cause accidents.

However, there are exceptions to everything, such as Zheng He's fleet to the West.

According to historical records, Zheng He's fleet included a total of 27,670 Western officials, banner soldiers, warriors, wrestlers, generals, peoples, compradors, scholars, and generals: 868 officers and 26,822 soldiers. He made seven eunuchs, ten young eunuchs, and five eunuchs. There are 53 internal envoys, 1 member of the household department, 2 commanders, 93 commanders, 140 members of 1000 households, 43 members of 100 households, 1 member of the teaching, 1 member of the Yin and Yang officials, 2 sherens, 1 Yu Ding, and 180 medical officers and healers.

Among them, there are some women in the army.

One is tailoring.

You must know that Zheng He went to the West, and there were more than 20,000 officers and sailors, which is equivalent to an army. These more than 20,000 people wear cloth socks and shoes, and a pair of shoes often break down in less than a month, and the clothes on the ship are also easy to break, so it is necessary to equip special women to sew and make clothes, shoes and socks, otherwise, every time they go to the West, it will take several years, just to prepare clothes, shoes, socks and quilts for these more than 20,000 people, it will have to fill several sea ships.

The other is a midwife.

It is understandable to use women as tailors, after all, generally speaking, women are more suitable for needlework than men, but Zheng He went to the West, and the vast majority of the officers and soldiers and crew members in the fleet were men, so what did the midwives do?
