Chapter 1004: A Spring Breeze and a Leaf Boat
The mighty fleet went straight down the Yangtze River, and at the mouth of the sea, it joined the 48 warships of the Shuangyu Guard, which had been ordered to assemble here, and formed a huge and incomparable fleet, turning towards the South China Sea.
The entire formation of this fleet is the outpost, the left and right front camps, the left and right outposts protruding from the entire fleet queue, and finally the back post that is divided into the left and right goose wings, and the middle position is the largest treasure ship and countless merchant ships, and the formation is like a giant turtle carrying the sacred mountain.
Descending from the air, the entire fleet was blackened and rolled out for several square kilometers, such a scene resembled the giant mixed fleet at sea during World War II, but at that time, the United States, Britain, Germany, Japan and other countries all had such naval fleets, but now it is the only one, and there is no other semicolon.
"Wading more than 100,000 miles, watching the whale waves in the sky, the vast and boundless, or the smoke of the Ming, or the wind and waves of Cui Wei. Looking at the Zhuyi region, it is separated by mist and mist. And my clouds sail high, day and night stars, wading into the turbulent ......"
In the early morning, Zhang Xitong, the right attendant of the Ministry of Rites, stood at the bow of the boat, looking down at the sea, and couldn't help but be poetic, and Zheng He next to him couldn't help but smile faintly when he heard it. Zhang Shilang's mood, when he first took a giant ship and sailed into the sea, he also felt the same way. However, the magnificence and magnificence of the sea can only be experienced by those who have just set foot on the sea.
Zheng He smiled and thought to himself, "Wait!" When the waves are like mountains, the boats are like fallen leaves, and when they sail for months, looking around and boring, this Master Zhang knows that sailing is far from being as poetic and picturesque as he imagined. ”
It was still dawn, but those who went to sea for the first time got up early in the morning, waiting to see the red sun leap out of the sea. The crew is busy nervously, and the navigation methods used in the navigation of the Ming Dynasty are mainly the navigation compass and the method of crossing the ocean and pulling the stars.
At this point, the helmsman is keeping the ship's tail facing Polaris, and the navigator uses the star-pulling plate to measure the latitude and horizon of the North Pole, and after obtaining the initial data, they will be able to maintain a full day and night of due south navigation before making another Beidou measurement. At this time, they had not yet mastered the accurate calculation of longitude, and the determination of latitude was not based on the equator, but on the basis of stars such as the North Star, but it was enough for them to get to where they wanted to be north of the equator with astonishing accuracy.
The waves are surging, the square bow is designed with a seawater channel on both sides, the waves are surging, it will be poured into the channel, when the bow sinks and rises, the water will be discharged from both sides, this method solves the problem of the ship's turbulence very well, so the boat is very stable on the sea, so that Zhao Zijin, the first time to take a big boat to the sea, also rarely feel uncomfortable.
Xia Xun was in the other boat, not all the officials knew that the auxiliary prince was also in the team that went to the West, except for the envoy Zheng He, the deputy envoy Zhang Xitong, and the commander of Shuangyu Wei Xu Hu, there were only Zhou Man, Hong Bao, Zhou Wen, Yang Qing and other major eunuchs and civil officials.
There are many officials on the main ship, so in order to keep it secret, Xia Xun lives on the battleship of Shuangyuwei, and Zhang Xitong also lives on another big ship, but he gets up early and gets up early in the morning to watch the ears, but in order to get closer to Zheng He, he rushed to Zheng He's big ship.
His concubine Youmeng had just gotten up at the moment.
There is a dream without a surname, no name, since he was a child is a Qinglou grew up, was a famous red courtesan in Beijing, Zhang Xitong returned to Nanjing from Liaodong, after being promoted to a member of the Ministry of Rites, his colleagues held a banquet to celebrate, invited him to spend a boat to drink, and at a glance, this ransomed for her, and since then she has been her own concubine. Zhang Xitong doted on this Mrs. Ru very much, and this time she went to the West, she was the only concubine he took with him.
Youmeng opened his eyes, his eyes were a little confused, and it took a while to wake up. Suddenly realizing that he was still on the ship at this moment, and that he was at sea at this moment, he couldn't help but lift his thin jacket, jump up with joy, run to the window barefoot, and open the window to look out.
A fresh sea breeze blew in her face, ruffled her hair, the sound of the waves was endless, and she sighed a few times in a dream, and then turned around unsatisfied. The window was on the porthole, so that no one could see it, and Youmeng turned around lazily, ready to call Yahuan in and wait for her to freshen up and put on her makeup.
Last night, I lingered with the old man for half a night, and at this time she was really enough to see, her lower body was not an inch, but she just put on a dirty clothes, and the dirty clothes were fat and hung down to the buttocks, so only a pair of white beautiful legs were exposed below. Fang's chest is halfway through, and her long black hair is half-hidden on her snowy and plump chest, and the graceful taste has a magnified effect through this spring shirt.
Youmeng walked to the table and sat down, picked up the horn comb, and just combed his hair twice in front of the bronze mirror on the table, when he suddenly screamed, threw the comb and jumped up, covered his chest and shrunk to the corner, and exclaimed, "Who are you?" ”
Tang Sai'er, dressed as a boy in a green coat and a small hat, sneaked into the room quietly and had been hiding for a while.
She found that it was not easy to hide on this ship compared to when she was in the army, and that time she was terrified, only to kill someone, and wanted to escape, and she could endure any hardship, but this time it was different, telling her not to change her clothes all day, not to wash for a few days, not to groom and dress up, to eat only leftovers of tea, and to sleep in the corner, of course she did not want to.
But she had secretly heard the sailors on the ship say that it was not really out to sea now, and she would go to Guangzhou next, if Xia Xun found her at this time, it would inevitably be escorted ashore and sent back, so it was not the time for her to let Xia Xun know. So she sneaked into the room where she had dreams, wanting to see what she could use.
She didn't prevent the dream surnamed Niang, but she was careless for a while, and didn't notice the angle that the bronze mirror could reflect, and was looked at by the dream girl who was dressing in the mirror, and saw a shadow sneaking behind in the back, this scare was really extraordinary, and for a while, the flower was discolored, and a heart was beating non-stop.
"Shh
Tang Sai'er was also taken aback by her, and quickly pointed to her lips and whispered, "Silence!" Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you. ”
There is a dream girl who looks at her, a teenager at the age of thirteen or fourteen, although he is dressed as a person in a green coat and a small hat, but he has red lips and white teeth, beautiful eyebrows and big eyes, clear and beautiful, charming and beautiful, such a rare and beautiful young man, it is simply unheard of, unseen.
Youmeng girl looked her up and down a few times, and then went timidly, faintly giving up an indescribable feeling, and couldn't help but slightly straighten up her full and attractive breasts, feigned anger, and said coquettishly: "You little guy, which adult is from the house, why are you so rude, breaking into my sister's bedroom?" If I go out, won't I have someone kill you? ”
"I ...... I ......"
Tang Sai'er laughed dryly, her eyes purring for a while, but she couldn't think of an excuse.
At this moment, there was a knock on the hatch, and the little maid called outside: "Madame, ma'am, what's wrong with you?" ”
A dream girl glanced at Tang Sai'er, and saw that she looked helpless, so that people fell in love with her when they saw her, and couldn't help but feel protective in their hearts, and hurriedly said: "It's nothing, I had a nightmare, and I woke up scared!" ”
After taking away the little girl's ring, Youmeng glanced at Tang Sai'er with a smile, and said, "Tell my sister honestly, what are you doing sneaking into someone's room?" ”
The sea is crossing, and the sun is rising in the east.
The red sun suddenly jumped out of the sea level, and thousands of red lights suddenly spread across the entire sea, and even the big ship was bathed in a red light.
Xia Xun stood firmly on the deck of the bow with his bare feet, his legs squatting slightly, his hands in front of the dantian like hugging a round wave, and he was slowly spitting out. There is a long gap between his breath and breath, but it never gives people a feeling.
The hull of the ship jolted gently, and the sea breeze with a faint smell of sea made his clothes flutter gently, but his whole body was completely relaxed, as if the whole thing had melted into the world.
Su Ying stood quietly on the side of the boat, watching her Lang Jun practice.
I believe that among the more than 30,000 people in the entire fleet, there are few people who are more familiar with the sea than her, here, she is like a fish in water, and she can integrate into it faster than anyone else, but Xia Xun can also adapt to life on the water so quickly, without even the slightest discomfort, which makes her quite admirable and strange.
She can adapt to life in the ocean, but God knows how long it will take her to adapt to life on land and to live as a grandmother in Jinling. But what about Xia Xun? Whether it is land, sea, desert, or grassland, it seems that no matter where he goes, he can integrate into it as quickly as possible and adapt to life there. He is as tough as a weed, and any environment will be conquered by him.
Slowly exhaling a breath of turbidity, Xia Xun slowly straightened up, he stretched his body a few times, stepped on the deck, and looked forward with his hands on the bow. The blue water was torn open by the bow of the boat, and the white waves were constantly disillusioned and revived, and several dolphins seemed to find it very interesting, and they fearlessly chased the waves on the bow of the boat, tirelessly running in front of the big boat.
Above the bow of the ship, many seabirds chirped and circled, and it was not very far from the land, far away, and the looming land could be seen, but on such a morning when the visibility was excellent, it looked like a fog and was not very clear.
Su Ying walked to his side lightly and stood still with him.
Xia Xun didn't look back, but knew that she was by his side, and after a long time, Xia Xun said, "What are you thinking?" ”
Su Ying said softly: "I like it here, every time I come here, I feel physically and mentally happy, and I don't need to worry about so many ......" Since I followed you, I have lived in the Guogong Mansion for many years, but I ...... Or more adapted to days like this. ”
Xia Xun laughed lowly: "The nature of a savage regards the wealthy family as a cage!" Actually, it's not just you, thank you, Azusa Qi, Ogi, Sakura, they are all the same, in fact...... In her bones, Ming'er is also such a character, and she doesn't like that kind of restraint either, but she ...... She can't help but carry a heavier burden than you. Our family, in fact, is all like this. ”
Su Ying couldn't help laughing: "That's it, it's not a family, if you don't enter a family, if you don't have the same uninhibited temperament as you in your bones, how can you walk together!" ”
Xia Xun gently shook her hand: "Don't worry, when we come back from the West, I will take you to that place, where we can live as we like." ”
"Hmm!" Su Ying agreed softly, like a little girl who knew how to do things for the first time.
She was full of curiosity about the place that Xianggong said, but she didn't ask much, no matter how bold and uninhibited she was, she couldn't get out of this era, marry a chicken and follow a chicken, and Xianggong said that where to go, then she would go wherever she went.
Xia Xun held her hand, faced the sea, and groaned: "
A spring breeze and a leaf boat.
A cocoon and a light hook.
The flowers are full of Nagisa, and the wine is full of Ou.
Freedom in the midst of thousands of waves! ”
