Wang Yue really wanted to pry Zhu Houxi's skull open to see if it contained bean juice!

Don't bring such hurtful people.

He calculated the time correctly, spent a lot of thought, and did not hesitate to let his father take action himself. It took so many forces and countless sums of money to intercept the world's first round-the-world fleet.

Wang Yue didn't want to do this, but what could he do, Daming's navigation skills had fallen behind, and his knowledge of astronomy and geography was about to be surpassed by the barbarians.

If you let this fleet go back, soon Xiyi will rush to the ocean, open the Age of Discovery, quickly accumulate wealth, and stride forward, maybe it will not threaten the Ming Dynasty for the time being, but sooner or later, it will bring killing and blood!

Wang Yue really stood at the height of all mankind to stop the barbaric colonial era, and of course, it was more important to buy some time for the Ming Dynasty.

It doesn't take much, just ten or eight years is enough.

Settle Yang Ting and these old stubborns, reproduce the glory of Zheng He's fleet, and firmly control the sea in his own hands...... God is pitiful, Wang Yue is really bent on seeking the country, all for your Zhu Houxi's country, and he has no other meaning.

How do you know that Zhu Houxi turned out to be an elm head, you want to be angry with me!

"Your Majesty, they have circled the earth! Half a circle! It's unprecedented, anyway! ”

"Earth? What Earth? Which place is called the earth? "Zhu Houxi is still in condition.

Wang Yue was helpless, "Your Majesty, the place where we live is the earth!" ”

"Nonsense!" Zhu Houxi was angry, "This is Da Ming!" It's the Central Plains, Huaxia Shenzhou, when is it called the earth? Xiao Fugui, have you lost your heart and gone crazy? ”

"Nope!" Wang Yue also said loudly: "Beyond the Ming Dynasty, there is a vast land, an even more vast sea, the land and the sea are connected, and they are all on a huge sphere. ”

Zhu Houxi frowned, thought for a long time, and laughed: "Isn't this what Hun Tian said?" It's also worth your shouting? ”

Wang Yue was so anxious that he grabbed his hair, "Your Majesty, Hun Tian said that it is a hypothesis to be precise, and it has not been confirmed. ”

Zhu Houxi smiled even more happily, and said disdainfully: "The sky is big, how can you confirm it?" ”

"These Xiyi have confirmed! We're on top of a round sphere! ”

"Ahh

Zhu Houxi finally understood a little.

In fact, the imagination of the ancients is still very rich, and through long-term observation, the so-called theory of the round sky and the place does not rule people's minds.

Like the Hun Tian Theory, which is very close to the astronomy of later generations, Zhu Houxi has heard Mr. talk about it, and he remembers it very firmly.

But the problem is that the Hun Tian theory is just an assumption, and there is no strong evidence to support it.

Circumnavigating the world is really embracing the earth under your feet, and for the first time, standing at the height of the earth, to look at the living planet.

Don't underestimate the upheaval brought about by circumnavigating the globe.

It is precisely because of the completion of the circumnavigation that Xiyi knows that the world is a sphere, and the area of the ocean far exceeds that of the land, and if he masters the sea route, he will master the wealth. They do business globally, earn wealth, and then stand at the height of global needs to develop technology, design business models, conduct scientific exploration and research, and transform and upgrade society......

From the beginning of knowing the earth under his feet, Xiyi began to throw off the East in terms of knowledge......

"Your Majesty, we have been overtaken by a group of barbarians!"

Wang Yue reluctantly said the reality.

The occupants never seemed to understand, and the whole person was in a state of emptiness...... Isn't this nonsense! When will the barbarians surpass the kingdom?

The kingdom of God is all-encompassing, the kingdom of ceremonies is a state of etiquette, everything in the kingdom of the kingdom is far beyond the barbarians, how can it be surpassed by the barbarians? Wang Yue is crazy!

But Zhu Houxi's thoughts didn't last long, and a logbook was sent to Zhu Houxi.

The ghost-like text on it is incomprehensible to Zhu Houxi.

But those charts still have a vague glimpse of something.

"Xiao Fugui, do you mean that they have been to these places, and we don't know anything about it?" Zhu Houxi couldn't believe it.

Wang Yue said helplessly: "That's true! ”

Zhu Houxi was stunned for a while, and said unconvinced: "Then what if they scribbled it?" How can you think they're right? These barbarians have no faith, and it's not unusual for them to make up stories to deceive people, right? ”

In the face of the stubborn Zhu Houxi, it is necessary to come up with enough solid evidence, and it is precisely in Wang Yue's hands that he has it!

"Your Majesty, this is after the Admiral Siyi Pavilion sorted out the files, and also found out some records of going to the West back then, and reluctantly redrew the approximate sea chart, after all, the original one is gone, and the Three Treasures Eunuch will not deceive people!"

Wang Yue put together the charts of the two sides.

Magellan's circumnavigation of the world was from Europe, across the Atlantic, through the Americas, the Pacific Ocean, to Asia, and back.

Wang Yue intercepted, and they only completed two-thirds of the whole process.

And the remaining one-third is exactly the place where Zheng He went back then, comparing them one by one, Zhu Houxi was surprised to find that the two were like a complete piece of paper, torn in half, and spliced together at the moment, they roughly matched.

The little emperor's forehead was sweating, he looked at Wang Yue stupidly, and said stupidly: "How come, so so?" We are a kingdom! ”

Zhu Houxi is crazy, if he loses the war, he can still say that he is barbaric and barbaric, he doesn't want to die, he is unparalleled in riding and shooting, how can people compare with beasts...... But at the level of knowledge, the barbarian's understanding of this world is even better than that of the Ming Dynasty.

This cannot be tolerated in any case!

"What's going on, what's going on?"

Zhu Houxi snorted and roared.

Wang Yue shrugged his shoulders and said helplessly: "Of course, I have to ask those people, why did you stop going to the West back then!" ”

Zhu Houxi gritted his teeth tightly, his little face turned pale with anger, and he squeezed out a sentence from between his teeth, "Go back to the palace and pass those adults into the palace!" ”

……

University scholars Mao Ji, Jiang Mian, and Jia Yong, as well as Yang Yiqing, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, Wang Yangming, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Lin Jun, the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, were all invited.

They faced the map on the table and fell into deep thought.

Wang Yangming's eyes lit up, revealing a look of surprise, it turned out that this is the world of life, what is it like this? After living for 50 years, I know the truth for the first time, and I really live to learn all the time!

Compared with Wang Yangming, who is immersed in the exploration of knowledge, the others have their own thoughts.

The corners of Jia Yong's mouth turned up, and he was secretly happy in his heart, look, our master has the ability, just get a few Xiyi, and burn the fire of the Son of Heaven.

According to this trend, Mao Ji will not be able to do it for a few days, and he will get out sooner or later...... If they all roll, will I, Jia Yong, be the first assistant?

Motosuke! Motosuke!

Oops!

How nice these two words are! If you can enjoy the taste of Shousuke, even if it is a thunderbolt immediately, it will be worth it! He was still thinking about it, and Zhu Houxi had already begun to scold.

"Face! Our Daming was slapped in the face! It was me in the face! We've been outnumbered by the barbarians! Is there a shame in it? Zhu Houxi stood up angrily, walked to the front of the map, pointed and scolded angrily: "Look, look!" When the eunuchs of Sanbao went to the West, they explored so much, but there were many more places for people to go than us. The dignified kingdom can't even compare to the barbarians, and his face is gloomy! ”

The little emperor roared angrily, and the ministers stared at each other.

"I ask you, why did you stop going to the West in the first place? I also heard that even the accurate nautical chart data is gone, and this is still Wang Yue in the Siyi Pavilion, sorting out the files, and it took a lot of effort to draw it. What the hell is going on with my courtiers? Old Mao Ge, during the palace examination, didn't you still say that you were conscientious and did not derelict your duties? ”

Mao Ji cried, he was so aggrieved.

"Your Majesty, this, this matter really has nothing to do with the old minister! Stop going to the West, that is the meaning of several auxiliary ministers during the orthodox years. As for the charts, it seems that Zhong Xuangong kept something wrong, but Zhong Xuangong died in the eleventh year of Zhengde, which, no one expected, a group of Xiyi did not stay at home, ran out and sailed around, they were really a group of outlaws. The old minister thought that he didn't have to meet them in general......"

The more Zhu Houxi listened, the more angry he became, and his brain hurt so much that he was angry.

Stopping going to the West is what the "Sanyang" did at the beginning of the country, and this guy is still regarded as a virtuous minister, bullshit! They are all mice-eyed people!

is especially hateful, and that Liu Daxia, the culprit who destroyed the charts, actually got the title of Taibao, nicknamed Zhongxuan!

He's a fart!

Zhu Houxi simply wanted to pull Liu Daxia out of the grave, crush it into foam and burn it to ashes, and throw it outside the Zhengyang Gate, so that the people could step on it every day, then he would be relieved!

"I don't want to hear whose sin it is...... I just want to ask you, now that the barbarians have explored the four seas and seen the footprints, they have far surpassed the Ming Dynasty, you say, what should I do? ”

Zhu Houxi set his eyes on Mao Ji. After deducting Yang Tinghe, he is the oldest cabinet minister, in charge of the affairs of this court, and holds great power.

In the face of backward reality, how to catch up?

Zhu Houxi asked, but Mao Ji was extremely entangled at the moment, should he continue to go to the West? This time, I'm afraid I have to go further and spend more...... This, this can't work! Absolutely not!

Mao Ji thought for a moment, and finally came up with a wonderful solution, "Your Majesty, the old minister thinks that this barbarian statement is not credible at all, and he can't make a big deal for the sake of such a few people's words, and he will work hard and lose money...... The old minister's intention was that it was better to put them to death, and then order that no one who knew about this matter should be allowed to spread the word, that is. ”
