Quanzhou Port, ships in and out, sails like a forest, businessmen from outside the city gather, Fanyi Hu people, can be seen everywhere.

It has been more than two years since the fleet went to the West, but since then, the private fleet has been going to the sea one after another, and trade with the countries of the South Seas has become more and more frequent.

As Zheng He's fleet passed, more and more countries got the news of the opening of trade in the Ming Dynasty, and they came to the Ming Dynasty to do business, and now the farthest fleet is from the Red Sea region.

I heard that Zheng He's fleet had already passed through there and sailed to a more distant place, and the way further forward was not even to those countries around the Red Sea, where the sky was deleted

On this day, the port was still as busy as usual, with Persians, Arabs, Indians, and merchant ships from the South Seas coming in and out, when suddenly, I don't know who was the first to spot an unseen fleet in the distance, and soon the news spread like the wind.

The people on the wharf stopped what they were doing, the sailors climbed the high masts, and the merchants stood on the high places and put their canopies in their hands to watch from afar.

The ship obscured the sky and the sun, and there was no edge in sight.

At the forefront, there was a huge treasure ship, with a golden dragon hanging high on the bow, although the flag was a little worn, but the dragon was still shining gold.

On the dock, an official of the city shipping department looked at the fleet, which was composed of countless ships of various kinds and specifications, getting closer and closer, and suddenly reacted, and he screamed: "The fleet is back!" Our ocean-going fleet is back! Hurry up and report to the prefect, our Ming fleet...... I'm back~hydrazine~"

This sound is like the Yongle bell in Beijing's Lucheng, a ringing, it ripples in the vast land for a long time, drifting to the three mountains and five mountains, floating to the five lakes and four seas.

At sea, the fast horse ship is like an arrow.

On land, ride fast for hundreds of miles and walk like flying.

After two years and three months, the Ming fleet has returned from the horizon!

This news spread all the way along with the fast horse boat and the eight-hundred-mile stagecoach.

Beijing Lucheng, the new imperial capital of the Ming Dynasty.

The news of the return of the fleet made Zhu Di, who had already shown his old appearance, laugh loudly, and the laughter echoed in the Jinluan Hall for a long time.

His fleet is back.

His fleet brought envoys from fifty or sixty countries in Europe, Africa, the Arab world, and the Indian Ocean world, including England, the Franks, Portugal, Spain, Hungary, Germany, Venice, and the Holy Roman Empire, as well as emissaries from the Pope, the supreme ruler of the West.

His fleet returned, bringing with him African elephants, African lions, leopards, camel birds, parrots, peacocks, and countless other rare birds and beasts, and even a unicorn, which had the body of a deer, the tail of a cow, the forehead of a wolf, and the hooves of a horse!

Two thousand years ago, this auspicious rui appeared in front of a woman named Yan Zhengzai, and later this woman gave birth to the Holy Master of the Holy of Holiness, and two thousand years later, it appeared again!

His fleet of Yongle the Great returned, bringing back mountains of precious stones, pearls, gold, silver, sandalwood, wood, spices, tin, and cardamom, the pigments needed to improve porcelain, and many flowers and plants that the Ming Dynasty did not have, as well as seeds of grains and vegetables unique to the West.

Zhu Di's old and powerful voice echoed in the Golden Palace: "Ministry of Rites, immediately start preparing to receive envoys from various countries!" There is also a lot of ears, that is, the first New Year after the official relocation of the capital to Beijing, the United wants to spend a different Spring Festival with all the countries and subjects of the world! ”

Hangzhou Port, Zheng He on the ship.

Xia Xun said to Zheng He: "My recital has been approved by the Holy Lord, and His Majesty promised me to return to Jinling first, and then go to Beijing with my family." My father-in-law and I will say goodbye here. ”

Zheng He said with a smile: "When I was in Quanzhou, I heard from the officials that after the emperor moved the capital to Beijing, the officials and their families who were in office were the first to move away, and the second group were the emperor's relatives and princes.

Master Daoyan has passed away, and Guogong is the only one of the six princes of Jingnan, and the first person in the rank and file among the meritorious heroes of the dynasty.

In addition, Mrs. Zun is the wife and sister of the former queen, and she is also among the best among the royal relatives, and she should have moved to Beijing early, but because she waited for your return, Mrs. has been postponed to this day. The virtuous couple is deeply gracious and enviable! ”

Xia Xun smiled slightly, and arched his hand: "Father-in-law has a good journey." ”

Zheng He also arched his hand and said: "Take care of the country." ”

A light cart drove quickly on the path, and dozens of horses accompanied it on the left and right, and the horses were brisk, and there were samurai sitting on the horse. In the car, Fei Hewei whispered to Xia Xun: "Most of the people in Qianlong who are not strong-willed and unwilling to travel far away have been transferred to the northwest for fear that they will be aware of the secrets, and those who can't be transferred have been cleared!" ”

Xia Xun nodded and asked, "How is the matter with Shuangyuwei?" ”

On the other side, Xin Lei grinned: "We barely interfered, and the East Zhejiang Water Master did everything for us." As soon as the main force of the Shuangyu Guard was transferred, the remaining old and weak soldiers were all useless, and after the Shuangyu Guard was fully taken over by the East Zhejiang Naval Division, it cut off the financial road of the officers and soldiers of the Shuangyu Guard and their families, and they had a very hard time in the past two years. ”

Fei Hewei said: "I heard that the officers and soldiers who came back from the ocean have made a fortune? Hehe, so what, the bullying of their families is not solved by money. Besides, the eastern Zhejiang Navy Division has already occupied Shuangyuwei, and will never spit out this piece of fat, and now they have operated through the military, and all the Shuangyuwei have been transferred to Tianjin to garrison and settle down, and their whole family will leave, and they are even more complaining, so there should be no difficulty. ”

Xin Lei said gloomily: "It doesn't matter if someone really has a moth, our ghost ...... "......"

Xia Xun waved his hand lightly, and Xin Lei immediately stopped. Don't talk about it.

After the flying dragon there is a hidden dragon, and after the hidden dragon there is a lilong, what kind of dragon is a lilong?

Song Ciyun: "Once returned to the car to carry together, neither tiger nor bear." The rapids retreated bravely, and the dragon lay at the bottom of the abyss. ”

Lying at the bottom of the abyss, it should be the rarest dragon to see.

Xia Xun was silent for a moment, gently pushed the hand in front of him over, and ordered: "In this box, there are the three jade seals that were lost, ask Ju Yubin to arrange it properly, hide it in the ownerless lonely grave, and then reveal it to Yu Hu Tan to know, be careful, don't make a mistake!" ”

"Yes!"

The two figures quickly flashed away from the light cart, and in a moment's time, several light horses left the group and disappeared into the trees at the foot of the mountain.

The sun has slanted to the west, and a place is golden.

Jinling, Jinyi Weinan Town Fusi.

"Big brother!"

Liu Yujue looked at Xia Xun with tears in her eyes: "I haven't seen you for more than two years, my eldest brother has lost weight." ”

Xia Xun smiled and said: "Fortunately, the wind and waves have tempered me, and I feel stronger." How long are you going to stay in Nanjing? ”

Liu Yujue said: "Lord Saihazhi has been staying in Beijing, and this side has to be handed over to me to deal with the aftermath." I won't go until the last group of officials has migrated. ”

Xia Xun nodded, his eyes flickered, and there was an indescribable taste: "Hmm! I'm going to leave a little son first, then our brothers will be separated. ”

Liu Yujue said with a smile: "I believe that it will only take three or two months, and when the spring of the next year begins, I will pass, and I won't have much time." When the eldest brother came back, I was supposed to go to see you, but you came to see me first, and went shopping...... After sending so many things, my brother was so upset that he couldn't go. ”

Xia Xun smiled and said, "Yes, I didn't go when you got married." If I don't send you, I want to send my younger siblings, right? ”

Liu Yujue's expression darkened for a moment, and he hurriedly said again: "I thanked the eldest brother on her behalf." ”

"Your own brother, you're welcome!"

Xia Xun smiled, groaned slightly, turned around and slowly pulled out a scroll of paintings from the pile of gift boxes, held it with both hands, and said softly to Liu Yujue: "Brother, this painting was given to me by Lord Luo, and it was the day Lord Luo committed suicide, do you remember?" ”

Liu Yujue's mind was in a trance for a moment, and he seemed to have returned to the night of swords and swords all of a sudden.

That night, Lord Luo committed suicide!

That night, Xiao Qianyue committed suicide!

That night, Jinling City changed its flail for another day......

Although there has only been one man in his heart from beginning to end, in this life, the only one who has possessed his body is another man.

And that man inherited this painting to this man, two men, one is the man who took away his body, the other is the man who took away his heart, through this inheritance, when holding this painting, he has a feeling that the body and the mind, the spirit and the body are fused.

He didn't open it, he knew that this painting was "Brocade Companion Riding Dictionary", he had seen it in Lord Luo's room more than once, and he had also carefully brushed the dust on it on behalf of Lord Luo, at that time everyone knew that this was Lord Luo's treasure, except for him, no one dared to touch it, everything on the picture, he was most familiar with.

He looked at Xia Xun and said sneeringly: "Big brother, why did you give it to me?" ”

"Because ......"

A strange smile bloomed on Xia Xun's face: "You should know that the eldest brother is now famous, and I am the only one left to achieve great results." Over the years, I have been busy all the time, and I am afraid that I will seal the knife and enjoy it with peace of mind.

Lord Luo passed this painting to me in the hope that I could continue to carry it forward. But I'm ashamed, I didn't do it, Jinyiwei was made into a miasma by Ji Gang, he was finally ambushed, Saihazhi has a straightforward and honest temperament, and he is in charge of Jinyiwei, and he has to rely on a person like you who is as careful as a hair!

I give you this painting, and I also give you Lord Luo's last wish. Although I have been against Lord Luo for so long, he has always been the person I admire the most! ”

Liu Yujue nodded, clenched the painting, looked deeply into Xia Xun's eyes, and said in a low voice: "I understand!" My eldest brother entrusted me with this mission, and I will definitely try to do it well! ”

Xia Xun smiled and stretched out his hand and patted him lightly on the shoulder, meaning wW
