The return of the imperial fleet caused a long-lasting boom in Nanjing.

During the two-year voyage, Zheng He, Wang Jinghong and Hou Xian's fleet visited many islands in the Western Ocean, and traveled south along Fujian, passing through the city of Cham and Siam, and visited Kajil, Ceylon, Kochi, Guli and other countries from the sea for the first time, perfecting the nautical charts, and at the same time establishing friendship and trade with the southwestern states of India in the 15th century.

Most of the time, both parties can be mutually beneficial and friendly, and each side will take what they need. The fleet received spice gems and grain and wood. The monarchs and commoners of Fanbang were very happy when they got the products of the Ming Dynasty.

A few very individual people, such as the king of Ceylon Mountain, Arekunal, were greedy and insufficient, and tried in vain to hit the stone with an egg, challenge the majesty of the Ming Dynasty, and take advantage of the fleet, Zheng He naturally would not be polite. There is only one sentence to describe its fate, stealing chickens does not lead to rice.

When Gonggong Zheng was in a bad mood, or the officers and soldiers of the escort fleet were not in a good mood, such as the generation of Alekunal, they couldn't pick up the rice, so they were directly ordered to stay, and their homes were copied as "losses" for the fleet.

In the spring of the sixth year of Yongle, Zheng He's fleet left Guli and set sail again. The crew used the Guò Star Map and Sinan to identify the direction and find the overseas mainland that Meng said.

During the voyage, the ship encountered several sea-wind-storms, and several merchant ships were damaged, but fortunately, there were few casualties.

The wind and storm stopped, and he happened to encounter a big food merchant ship, and took the opportunity to find two uninhabited islands, one of which can be used as a natural harbor, and the treasure ship can also dock. Since the situation on the island could not be determined, and the purpose of the trip was otherwise, Zheng He ordered the scribes to mark the charts one by one, discussed with the officials of the same ship, and decided not to send people to the island for the time being. Whether or not to set up a harbor for garrisoning troops on the island can be left to Beijing after returning to Beijing, and the decision will be made by the Son of Heaven.

After Chen Zuyi's incident, Zheng He hated pirates.

Ordered the fleet to pass by, and in case of pirates, follow a principle: those who offend the power of heaven will be destroyed. Those who flee from the wind, catch up and destroy.

Through the interrogation of the captives, the fleet found several pirate treasure spots. Due to the narrowness of the bay, the treasure ships could not pass through Guò, and the two ships went back and forth three or four times before the pirates' treasures were removed.

If it was replaced by the original Gonggong Zheng in history, there was a chance that nine out of ten would not do such a thing as robbing pirates.

Helplessly, the Yongle Dynasty airborne a Xingningbo, the history of the Ming Dynasty, the history of Zheng He's fleet, will eventually be fanned to another track by butterfly wings.

"You can't do loss-making transactions, and you can't pick and choose to do low-profit transactions."

"There is no profit, you must squeeze out the profit!"

"The gold and silver treasures that are delivered to the door, do not be in vain."

"Pirates are not good, and what we do is really doing the right thing for heaven."

The scribe wrote like a fly, recording all kinds of feats of Zheng Gonggong, not forgetting to use the Spring and Autumn penmanship to beautify it as much as possible.

On the royal view, always polish it.

Zheng Gonggong changed his concept, broadcasting kindness became grace and power, sending money became making money, and whoever was not polite to the fleet would be even more unkind to him. If you encounter another Java Island-kill-person-robber-robber-event, there will be no more opportunities to send money to redeem your life.

Sixty thousand taels of gold?

600,000 taels are destroyed!

The Daming fleet is like a giant beast on the sea, riding the wind and waves all the way, and completely making a name for itself at sea.

Whether it is the Ottoman Empire across the Eurasian continent or the Europa countries hanging from the tail of the Middle Ages, they must accept the reality that the golden capital described by Marco Polo's guerrilla has changed its new owner. The mighty Emperor commands one of the most powerful powers in the world and has the most powerful fleet in the world.

The Huns have long been history, and the Mongolian iron cavalry has no longer been famous in the last century.

After the death of Timur the Cripple, the empire he founded was in decline. The Golden Horde was torn apart, and legitimacy was gradually replaced by the White Horde.

The huge Ming Empire stood in the east, vast and rich. There are fine porcelain silks, and the food is delicious. The people there are civilized and elegant, and they are well versed in etiquette. In the presence of this great kingdom, the kings and queens of Europa were like rich men farming in the countryside.

No, compared to the wealth of the Ming Empire, the king and queen who borrowed from the merchants could not even be called the rich man of the land.

With the two voyages of Zheng He's fleet, various legends about the Ming Dynasty have become more and more.

Even if Zheng He's fleet had never visited Europe, even if it was dictated by only a very small number of sailors, and there was no lack of exaggeration in the description, even the royal family and nobles were convinced.

The abundance and magic of the Ming Dynasty are extremely desirable, and even triggered a craze for Europeans to find new shipping routes in advance. The forerunners are still Portugal and Spain.

I'm afraid that even Meng didn't expect this.

It's just that no matter how long in advance, the advantage is on the side of Daming.

The wealth of the Ming Dynasty was enough to support the fleet to complete many ocean voyages. The support of Emperor Yongle provided the necessary conditions for the fleet to discover new routes.

When it comes to shipbuilding and firearms technology, the current Europa is even more out of the picture.

With such a favorable time, place and people, it is not possible to catch up with the West and Portugal and crush the European explorers into slag.

Without him, there is no face.

By the time the fleet arrived in Fujian, some of the merchant ships had already left on their own.

Arriving at the port of Ningbo, the sea ships mixed with elements of the Chinese Wuhe clan unloaded their goods one after another, waiting for the governments to arrange vehicles to pull them up.

A scene of queuing up to withdraw money was staged again.

Ten years later, the size of the fleet is still very large.

Just because there were too many overseas envoys accompanying them, there were no less than 20 sea ships dedicated to loading tribute.

In addition, a large number of gold, silver, spices, and exotic beasts, wood brought back from overseas, and medicinal herbs and crops confessed by Meng Tedi, it took two days for the team to enter the city alone.

Sun-dusk - When the city gate is closed and the drawbridge is lowered, the teams that have not yet entered the city can only collectively set up tents under the city gate for the night.

The winter rain in Nanjing in December fell with snowflakes, and the damp and cold air soaked into the bone marrow, which tested people's physical quality and willpower.

The Son of Heaven was still on the way, and the officials of the Nanjing Sixth Department and the Honglu Temple did not dare to break the rules and opened the city gate at night without authorization. But if you freeze people out of the way, especially many foreign envoys, spread it out, it will really hinder the external image of the Ming Dynasty.

After discussing overnight, Honglu Temple and Guanglu Temple worked overtime, shouted through the city, and then put down the hanging basket and sent hot water and meals to the people outside the city, so that the night passed safely.

The next day, the team continued into the city.

The number of people is too large, and the Nanjing Huitong Hall really can't stay, so it can only be arranged to the inn in the city. Rao is like this, and there are no less than a dozen Fanbang people who praised loudly, "Such a house is even more exquisite than the king's palace!" ”

Due to the arrival of a large number of envoys from Fanbang, throughout December, the city of Nanjing once again set off a shopping frenzy.

Zhu Di was still on the way to respond to the sky, the envoys couldn't worship the lord, and there was nothing to do in the hall and inn all day long, eating and sleeping, waking up and eating, and the only entertainment activity was shopping and shopping.

Porcelain, buy!

Silk, buy!

Yarn silk, buy!

Tea, must buy! Purchase limit? It's okay, buy one or two too!

There were even envoys who took a fancy to the town house beast in front of an official house on the street, and pondered all day long to buy it and bring it back to China as a gift to the king.

But can the town house beast be sold?

The two sides could not get along, and their anger surged, and they rolled up their arms and sleeves, almost causing an international dispute.

In the end, Ying Tianfu and Honglu Temple sent people to mediate, introduced two craftsmen to the envoys, carved the town house beast for him, and comforted the officials who were approached, and the matter was resolved.

Among the envoys of the various states, especially those with brown and red complexions and feathers on their heads are the most wealthy.

Buy two buns and throw gold, he is not a tyrant, who is a tyrant?

There is a gossip in the city that these people live overseas, where the mountains are high and the forests are dense, and poisonous insects and beasts are everywhere. The people do not know how to educate, and the man only wears a sackcloth around his waist and a few leaves--shaking-shame.

"My uncle's brother is a boat man, and he really sees that the patterns on the faces and bodies of these people are not painted, but drawn with knives. Also, they sacrificed to the gods and ancestors, but they were not six animals and rice, they were all living people! ”

"Drink!" Everyone gasped, "Is this true? ”

"What else can I do with you? My uncle's brother can make a good soup cake, and he has the blue eyes of the prince, and he is a fellow villager with the interpreter on the ship, and he happened to be connected to the distant sect. It is said that the general translation told him that these people are sacrificed, not one or two, but hundreds or thousands! Worship the sun god, saying that the more heads there are, the more devout they are......"

"How can such a barbarian enter the capital of my dynasty!" A man in his thirties, dressed in a Confucian shirt, rose up angrily and said loudly, "Emasculation misleads the country!" ”

"I'm talking about this," the guy who delivered the news plucked out his ears and blew off a little earwax from his little fingertip, "don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, and don't talk nonsense." You're so happy, you cause trouble, and you're tired of others! ”

"That's right! If you don't want to hear it, just leave! ”

Rusheng's face turned blue, and his fingers trembled and pointed at everyone, "Good, good!" The shaft is not enough and conspiracy! “

"Phew!" The guy snorted, "A bottle is less than half a bottle!" Master has never done learning, and he has heard storytelling, do you think this is appropriate for use here? I advise you, it's better to study more if you have this skill, maybe you can be admitted to a show talent and eat rice in the imperial court. No, I remember, you haven't even passed the house test. How many times has this been? ”

Rumble!

Everyone burst into laughter, and Confucian Sheng's face turned red, covered his face with his sleeves, turned around and walked away, and he didn't have the face to stay any longer. Several people at the same table were embarrassed, and they left in a hurry after the meeting.

In the year of establishment, he was almost not confused, but he didn't even pass the exam as a child, so it's no wonder that he was ridiculed.

How about readers?

Repeatedly tried, the four bodies are not diligent, and the empty will drop the book bag, in the eyes of ordinary people, there is no difference between a waste-thing.

At the feet of the Son of Heaven, there are still few readers?

If you can't study, follow the example of Chaozhong Xingningbo, abandon your pen and follow Rong, and break out of the world!

I don't want to be motivated, but I still want others to be a Buddha-master, it's pure daydream!

In the corner of the teahouse, a man in a blue round-necked robe and a black horn belt got up and beckoned his men to meet the account.

Leaving the teahouse, I went to the street to buy a box of snacks. My wife is pregnant, and I always think about the snacks of this family.

Standing at the corner of the street, the man stroked the scar on his forehead, and he couldn't help but be touched.

I think that at the beginning, he was just a useless scholar, not much different from the person who hid his face just now. Later, due to the loss of his face, he cut off the road to the imperial examination and became a clerk in the sixth department. Grateful for Xingningbo's life-saving grace, he secretly delivered a message.

I thought that the matter was done in a confidential manner, and the cause and effect were over. I don't want to, some time ago, the officials actually issued a document, in addition to his official status, he was elected as an official, and he could go to Jiaxing County, Yingtianfu to serve as a historian after the year.

The ceremony is not in the stream, but for the scribes, it is tantamount to a fish leaping into the dragon gate. Since then, he has been an official.

Why is there this opportunity, thinking about it, there is only one possibility, Xingningbo. If there was no Xingningbo secretly helping, the post of Jiaxing County Dian Shi would not have been his turn anyway.

"Cause of the result."

He did not hand over the post to the door, but only wrote it down in his heart, and in the coming day, he would let future generations remember the great kindness of his uncle.

If there is no uncle, there is no family.

"The Li family is upright, kind and lovely, and nothing is moral."

This is the family motto he set up, which will be recorded in the family motto in the future, and it has achieved that after the Meng family, the Ming Dynasty has cultivated and studied the family of goodness, which has lasted for hundreds of years.

It rained in Nanjing for a whole month.

At the end of December, it was another rainy day.

The sky was cloudy, gloomy and not bright.

The sound of rain was intensive, and occasionally a few hailstones fell, and the defenders of the city were still drenched in clothes and hats. Fortunately, the hail is not big, otherwise, even if you are hit by a military stick, you have to hide for a while.

In the heavy rain, three fast horses suddenly broke out.

Immediately, the knight whipped hard, his hat was blown away by the wind, and the hem of his coat was raised, revealing his soaked scarlet jacket and black platform soap boots.

More than ten meters away from the city, the knight suddenly grabbed the reins and took out the horn.

The low sound of the horn cut through the rain curtain and alarmed the defenders of Xuanwu Gate.

A thousand households went to the city to check, only to see three cavalry straight to the city gate, but did not enter the city, but said loudly: "The holy car is fifteen miles away, and hundreds of officials in the city are welcome!" ”

The Son of Heaven returns to Luan?

Qianhu didn't dare to slack off, hurriedly went down the city wall, personally checked the waist card and documents of the cavalry, confirmed that it was correct, and immediately said in a loud voice: "Quick, send someone to inform the palace, and then send a letter to the yamen on duty, and the holy car will return to Beijing, on the way, fifteen miles away from the city!" ”

"Obey!"

After taking the token, several of the defenders turned on their horses and galloped away.

The three messengers dismounted, took the hot soup from the defenders, and gulped it down. The cheeks, which were pale from the cold, finally had some blood.

The commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the officials of Ying Tianfu Hall were the first to arrive.

Soldiers and officials braved the rain to clear the road.

When the officials of various ministries learned the news, whether they were on duty or not, they immediately changed into official clothes, abandoned the car and rode on horses, and galloped outside the Xuanwu Gate.

Hearing the flying news in the palace, Queen Xu put on a lot of makeup and took a car to the outside of the city to greet her.

The envoys of the various states in the hall listened to the Honglu Temple prelude to tell the holy driver to return to Beijing, and immediately dressed up and rushed to Xuanwu Gate in the rain.

Hearing the movement, the people of Nanjing put on their robes, held up paper umbrellas, and walked out of their homes.

From the Xuanwu Gate to the Inner City Gate, until the Palace Gate, the streets are full of people waiting for the driver.

The iron ruler wielded by the official and the water and fire stick in the hands of the military were completely unseen by the people. No matter how cold the rain is, it can't extinguish it, and everyone's hearts are hot.

First peace in the south, and then victory over Tatar.

Expand the territory, prestige in the sea, and all countries come to the court. What do you think of non-martial arts?

The imperial fleet brought back a large number of overseas crops and grains, and the Son of Heaven was worried that the people had no food. The Son of Heaven insisted on moving the capital, and he guarded the country for thousands of people.

Huanghuang Daming, the son of heaven.

Born in this land, when it is prosperous, it is the luck of the people, the luck of the family, and the luck of the country!

The queen Anche went out from Fengtianmen, and the colorful flower board of the car pavilion was hit by the rain, making a burst of crisp sounds.

Queen Xu was dressed in a big red dress, wearing a double phoenix and dragon crown, and sat upright. Dignified and elegant but not lacking in heroism, in the eyes of the people, like the Nine Heavens Xuannu.

The rain is getting lighter.

When the queen drove out of the city, the hundred officials stood in order, and the envoys of various countries were also arranged by the officials of Honglu Temple, and a loud elephant suddenly came from a distance.

At the horizon, the standard-bearer Wei Shengsheng Jingwei opened the road, and the Yirong Wei branch was on both sides.

The flag of the Son of Heaven, the five-element flag, the Taichang flag, and the bright colors are particularly eye-catching in the drizzle.

Two rare white elephants, shaking their trunks, took open steps, pulled the jade chariot of the Son of Heaven, and slowly appeared in front of everyone.

At this time, the rain suddenly stopped, the dark clouds dispersed, and the winter sky cleared, sprinkling a colorful glow.

In front of the pavilion, the two pillars are pasted with gold and ascending dragons like - desire - vacant.

The wonder suddenly appeared, and everyone was shocked. For a moment, it was as if I had lost my words.

Zhu Di pushed open the pavilion door, frowning slightly.

In the convoy behind him, there was a sudden sound of long live mountain calls. In front of the city gate, everyone returned to their senses, and they didn't care about the ground and didn't do it, so they bowed their heads and bowed.

"Long live my emperor!"

The sound of a tsunami spread, and the most brutal overseas envoys couldn't help but weaken. When he suddenly realized, he had bowed down with others and shouted long live.

Zhu Di was satisfied and smiled.

"Flat!"

Behind him, Meng hung his head, his expression was difficult to describe.

It's a loud voice, yes.

Can the dignified son of heaven, in front of the ministers and the envoys of the Fanbang, hold up a loudspeaker and shout?

Well, on the bright side, this can also prove that Daming science and technology are progressing and ahead of the times.

However, if any national player uses this as a blueprint to draw a "picture of the return of the Son of Heaven" to future generations...... Uncle Meng got up silently and told himself not to think too much, it hurts his brain cells too much.

The Son of Heaven entered the city, and there was another sound of long live from the mountains.

Meng followed behind the holy car, his gaze swept over the ranks of envoys, and suddenly fixed on a certain place, and his eyes lit up in an instant.

Brownish-red skin, black hair, muscular and strong, head-tusk-feathered, Indian?

Isn't it, Zheng He's fleet found the American continent?

Bang-bang!

The sound of firecrackers and the blooming of fireworks.

The corners of Uncle Meng's mouth are grinning to the root of his ears, the eunuch of the three guarantees, he is really powerful and domineering! A thumbs up is a must!

Vasco da Gama and Columbus can rest wherever it is cool.

The ocean of this era is destined to belong to the Ming Dynasty!
