"Since there has been heaven and earth, there have been kings and ministers! I, the Holy Son of Heaven, treat all of you with benevolence and righteousness. Do you dare to betray a great favor and lose the courtesy of the monarch and ministers? If the Son of Heaven is angry, he will send a partial general, and the 100,000 teachers will be punished by heaven, which is as easy as covering his hands. Why don't you think about it. He dared to be stubborn and disobedient to the country of Er, and to bring about his own destruction......"

On the main hall of the King Palace of Ceylon, Zheng He walked around in front of the throne and scolded loudly!

At the foot of the stairs, Alekunaer, his wife, sons, daughters, and concubines were all bound and bowed down, and their faces were as white as earth.

The ministers of culture and military affairs of Ceylon all prostrate on the ground, silent as cicadas.

It's not that they don't want to escape, but the speed at which the Ming army captured the palace was too fast, and then they took control of the four cities, and only sent two hundred soldiers to each city gate, and they were impregnable, and the whole royal city did not have any decent resistance at all, but when attacking the palace, they encountered a little symbolic resistance.

After Zheng He took Chen Zuyi, he always wanted to give the Nanyang and Western countries an impression of charity and peace, but the tree wanted to be quiet and the wind did not stop, and now he had to depose his king again and abolish it again. Chen Zuyi, who was trapped in the bilge of the big ship, would soon be able to usher in a partner.

On the beach, Zhang Xitong was seeing off Xia Xun.

Because of Xia Xun's identity on this trip, there was no big move, and there were very few people who were alarmed, Zheng He's actions in the Ceylon royal palace also played a role in covering him, at this moment, everyone's attention was on the royal city, who would pay attention to a fleet quietly leaving.

"Since the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, for the first time, the prestige of my Ming Dynasty has spread 100,000 miles in all directions, Zhuyi dare not disagree, and if you don't accept it, you will hit it, haha, majestic, majestic......"

Zhang Xitong laughed a few times, and then said: "However, Guogong, let's make Limi Sura the king in Manraka, and in Bolin State, we first arrested Chen Zuyi, and then set up Shi Jinqing, and in the Ceylon Mountains, we arrested Alekunaer, and set up his distant nephew Yebanana as the acting king. If you go further west, you can't fight again! ”

Xia Xun said innocently: "If you use a knife or a gun, am I willing?" It's they themselves who don't know the depths! These frogs at the bottom of the well, Yelang is arrogant, you can't just show your kindness, you have to have a big stick in one hand, a sweetness in the other, obedient to give some sweetness, disobedient is a stick! ”

Looking at Zhang Xitong's worried face, Xia Xunfu smiled again and said, "I have a secret mission to do this time, so of course I won't cause trouble." Don't worry, when I go to Kezhi and Guli, I will be calm and quiet, and I will never leave a mess behind, waiting for you to clean up! ”

Zhang Xitong said happily: "Although the lower officials don't want Western countries to think that China is belligerent, they are also worried about the danger of national security. Now that there is the sentence of the national prince, then the lower officials will be relieved. ”

Some of the most trusted officers and soldiers were selected from the Shuangyu Guard, changed into civilian uniforms, unloaded artillery and other heavy weapons, and rode seven large ships, riding the wind and waves, and submerged in the depths of the sea.

After leaving Guli, Xia Xun's fleet first arrived at Little Gülen and then to Kezhi.

In these two places, when he had just docked and landed, Xia Xun was still worried that his ship did not indicate any nationality or identity, and the crew and sailors were all dressed in civilian uniforms and were armed.

Unexpectedly, no one cared about this at all, no one cared whether they were soldiers or bandits, and no matter where they came from, all they cared about was what goods they brought.

In this era, ocean-going fleets have their own armaments, and most ocean-going fleets are pirates, although not professional pirates, so no one in the port cares who you really are, of course, this is also because no pirate has ever been a pirate after entering the port.

This made Xia Xun feel very relieved, and when they came, they also loaded some Chinese goods, silk, tea, porcelain, etc., which are very popular goods among the locals.

The port here is half and half between the locals and half of the Arabs, and many Arabs not only do business here, but also have roots here, and they have a lot of influence in the local ports, and some of the ports have even been completely managed and operated by them, and the locals can only be hired by them.

Xia Xun's fleet was anchored in an Arab-run port.

An Arab in charge of the wharf welcomed them by saying that there were merchants from all over the world, if not all over the world, who spoke at least 80 languages.

During the period when Xia Xun's fleet was anchored here, they dumped a large amount of Chinese goods, and bought a large number of spices and Indian gems, and when they left the port, merchants from all over the world, who spoke more than 80 languages, bought some Chinese goods to a greater or lesser extent.

At this time, Chinese goods are a symbol of taste, grade, quality and trend, and can be used as hard currency in countries around the world.

After staying in Kezhi for five days, Xia Xun continued his journey, and the next stop was Guli.

Xia Xun also conducted a secret investigation when he was in Xiao Gelan and Kezhi, and the Arabs, who had great power and were very hospitable in the local area, had helped his generous Oriental friend to conduct an investigation, but he did not find some clues of Emperor Jianwen locally, so Xia Xun set his sights on Guli again.

Located at the southwestern tip of the Indian peninsula, Guri has long been declared a free port where people of any country, any region, and any status can freely anchor their ships to replenish fresh water and food.

So, over the centuries, the port has not been controlled by the merchandise-gifted Arabs like Kochi and Little Gülen, but it has prospered just as much. However, because of the overly liberal management here, the environment and law and order are more chaotic than those of Cochin and Little Glenn, and the docks are full of stinky fish and shrimp and thieves and pickpockets.

As soon as the fleet entered the harbor, a fat and black-toothed man with a white cloth wrapped in a fat robe boarded the ship with a pair of fat feet, and greeted the people on the ship with a smile: "Hello, guests from afar......

The locals are willing to exchange precious stones, pearls, corals, pepper, sumac, and other goods for whatever they want. When they saw the fine porcelain and gorgeous silk of the ship, the tooth man's eyes shone brightly.

It is very cumbersome to calculate the value of the exchanged goods by bartering directly and having a general equivalent.

Shuangyuwei has dominated the trade in the East China Sea over the years, and has also cultivated some of his own people who are specifically responsible for business, when these people sit behind the table, crackling and fiddling with the abacus beads, the Indian tooth man with a thick white cloth wrapped around his head will use his hands and feet to carry out mental arithmetic, and the speed and accuracy are no worse than the abacus.

When Xia Xun saw it, he was very curious, wondering if most of the numbers were not whole numbers, and the number of digits had increased to millions and millions, whether their twenty toes would still be enough.

Xia Xun didn't stay on the boat for too long, and soon he took Fei Yinglun ashore, and Su Ying and Tang Sai'er were also with him. They just went ashore to see the scenery and didn't go far, so they didn't ask anyone to follow.

The scenery here is very pristine and beautiful, and it has not been spoiled by the constant flow of travel.

The coconut grove alley, blue and green, bright and deep, is like a quiet watercolor painting, and the canoe gently rows through the river, creating layers of ripples.

Next to the huge banana tree, a woman wearing a headscarf and a nose ring walked by with a jug on her head, and when her big deep and charming eyes glanced over, although she was just looking at it curiously, there was a smell of seduction, which made Su Ying always a little worried, when the master returned to the ship, he wouldn't take an Indian woman back, right?

Xia Xun didn't pay attention to the wonderful scenery of people and things, he and Fei Yinglun walked in front, talking as they walked.

Three elephants came in front of him, lined up in a row, the man riding on the elephant had an orange scarf around his neck, his dark upper body was naked, and he was wearing a pair of orange pants, and he was as lazy as the elephant below.

Xia Xun gave way to the side of the road, continued to listen to Fei Yinglun's introduction, and the interpreter led a horse, and walked beside him dutifully translating. The elephant turned to the side of the fork, temporarily separating them from Su Ying and Sai'er.

Xia Xun didn't care, he was standing on the side of the road, the roadside was drying with a big wooden fishing net, the sunlight reflected the grid-like shadows on his face, his expression was very focused.

"Their king here is called Zamorim, which means the ruler of the sea and the mountains, very, very rich."

Fei Yinglun licked his lips greedily: "I heard that he has infinite wealth......"

Xia Xun said: "Okay, okay, what I want to know is, do you have any friends here?" I'm inquiring about someone's whereabouts, maybe I can ask him for help? ”

A different color flashed in Fei Yinglun's eyes, and he said, "My lord, I look at you...... It doesn't seem to care about looting at all, but there is a great interest in some people from the East! ”

Xia Xun said lightly: "Nonsense! Shall we plunder on this shore? We are pirates, not bandits. Along the way, the port is relatively dense, and it is not convenient for us to start, continue to go west, there should be a chance. I'm telling you, I'm looking for people from the East, and they're a great fortune, you know? ”

Fei Yinglun sighed and hurriedly asked, "Could it be that these people have a batch of huge treasures?" ”

Xia Xun smiled and said, "Not bad! They were originally our people, but in the first ......, all the treasures we have obtained over the years have been hidden by them, if I can find them and ask the whereabouts of the treasures, hehe, I will reward you with a large sum of money, and I will give you a boat! ”

Saying this, Fei Yinglun's eyes suddenly showed a blazing light, and what he was thinking about for a while was to get a boat again, but a sturdy and durable pirate ship was very expensive, if Xia Xun could really give him a boat......

Fei Yinglun asked excitedly, "Mr. Xia, is what you said true?" ”

Xia Xun said: "I have always valued my commitment. ”

"Good! Good! ”、

Fei Yinglun was overjoyed, he already suspected that Xia Xun was not a pirate, and he didn't believe what treasures Xia Xun said that those Easterners who were in the West hid anything, but after getting along for so long, he believed in Xia Xun's personality, if he could find the group of Orientals that Xia Xun was looking for, he believed that Xia Xun would definitely fulfill his promise and give him a big boat.

Fei Yinglun said excitedly: "I know the big boss here, he is the minister who manages the affairs of King Guli, and I used to sell a lot of looted property to him. Mr. Xia can prepare a few valuable gifts, I will take you to meet him, he will be happy to help. ”

Xia Xun said happily: "This is very good, Ying'er ......"

Xia Xun turned his head and called, turned his head to look, and suddenly changed color!

Su Ying and Tang Sai'er have disappeared.
