"This ...... Is it my Daming country? ”
As Zhao Junchen expected, although it was only a map, it was so detailed and clear, unprecedented in the history of the Ming Dynasty, and the impact on Emperor Deqing was extremely huge, so much so that he even disregarded his identity and personally walked down the imperial steps, came to the blanket depicting the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and lowered his body to look carefully. (If you like this book, please collect it biquge.info) his eyes were blazing, and he seemed to be a little drunk, muttering to himself, what he said, maybe even Emperor Deqing himself didn't know.
Looking at the vast territory of the Ming Dynasty in front of him, Emperor Deqing may have understood for the first time how huge the country he ruled was, and this feeling made him unable to stop.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Zhao Junchen said softly on the side: "This is the Daming Dynasty ruled by Your Majesty, the most powerful, the most prosperous, and the most prosperous country in the world. ”
"Zhao Aiqing, this map of the territory of the Ming Dynasty, I look at it is even more accurate and perfect than the "Ming Mixed One Map", where did you get it?"
After hearing Zhao Junchen's reply, Emperor Deqing came back to his senses and asked Zhao Junchen.
For Emperor Deqing's inquiry, Zhao Junchen had already prepared, and began to make up the story without changing his face: "Your Majesty, when the minister had not yet entered the court as an official, he accidentally got a broken map of the territory of the Ming Dynasty, which was drawn by the Western Romans. ”
As soon as Zhao Junchen was halfway through his words, Emperor Deqing was stunned for a moment and asked, "Rome?" I remember that Matteo Ricci, who came to the court during the Wanli Emperor, was a Roman? ”
Matteo Ricci came to the Ming Dynasty in the Wanli years of the Ming Dynasty, and contributed to the Wanli Emperor the world map such as "Liangyi Xuanlan Map" and "Kunyu Wanguo Quantu", although it was crude, but it still caused a great shock in the Ming Dynasty at that time, and the name of the Romans who were good at drawing maps was also deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the Ming Dynasty at that time. And Zhao Junchen's mention of Rome is also to increase the persuasiveness.
"Exactly. And the chart of the territory that the minister obtained. However, it is more detailed and accurate than the "Kunyu Wanguo Quantu" and other maps that Matteo Ricci transmitted back then. It can be seen that over the years, the means of drawing maps of the Romans have made great progress, even our Ming Maritime Frontier and surrounding countries. It's all so well drawn. ”
Speaking of this, Zhao Junchen looked up. But seeing that everyone in the hall was not touched, just listening to a novel story, he couldn't help frowning slightly.
That's why he's mentioning that today. Although it is all a lie. But there is also a sense of caution, but it is clear that no one in the temple has seen anything more profound in the progress of Westerners in drawing nautical charts.
However, these plans are just handy. Seeing that everyone didn't care, Zhao Junchen was not disappointed. just continued: "At that time, when I saw that sea chart, the minister was thinking, even the people of Yuanyi can draw such a detailed map, how can I be in the Ming Dynasty?" Even the country of Yuanyi has a clear and detailed map of its own country, why can't I have it? Although the territory of my Ming Dynasty is vast, far from being comparable to a small country in Yuanyi, it is even more difficult to draw a perfect map of the territory of the Ming Dynasty, but only in this way can we show the national strength and civilization of our Ming Dynasty. Therefore, since then, the minister began to pay attention to the collection of news from all sides, and borrowed many works of ancestors, such as "Ming Dynasty Unification Chronicles", "Kunyu Wanguo Quantu", "Wanguo Tuzhi" and so on, it took seven years to finally make this Ming Dynasty territory map, and by today's Majesty's birthday, it will be limited to His Majesty. ”
Zhao Junchen said these are naturally lies, "Ming Dynasty Unification Chronicles", "Kunyu Wanguo Quantu", "Wanguo Tuzhi" and other works he naturally has a reference, in order to make this Ming territory map, it is indeed deliberately collected a lot of information, but the real foundation, or Zhao Junchen's memory of the Ming map in his mind.
And this is why Zhao Junchen wants to draw the map of the Ming Dynasty on the blanket, not because it looks expensive and luxurious, but because the blanket is no better than paper sheepskin, which allows Zhao Junchen to deliberately blur out many details of the Ming territory map, after all, for the Ming territory, Zhao Junchen only remembers approximately.
But for this, Emperor Deqing obviously did not doubt it, but just nodded and praised: "Zhao Aiqing has a heart, this territory map is indeed detailed and organized, much clearer and clearer than the territory map currently used in my dynasty." ”
After carefully observing for a while, Emperor Deqing's face flashed with satisfaction, and after reluctantly glancing at the blanket again, he finally returned to the imperial step and sat down, and said in a loud voice: "Hang this map of the territory of the Ming Dynasty in my imperial study, and take care of it carefully, and there will be no mistakes." ”
After the eunuchs carefully rolled up the blankets and moved them away, Emperor Deqing turned his gaze to Zhao Junchen again.
Zhao Junchen's three birthday gifts this year, one is more surprising than the other, and anyone can see the satisfaction of Emperor Deqing.
According to the rules, at this time, Emperor Deqing should speak back to thank and comfort.
And after Emperor Deqing looked at Zhao Junchen for a long time, he just said slowly.
"Junchen, you are very good, and you have won my heart."
There are not too many words, there are not too many praises, but the seriousness in the tone and demeanor can be seen by anyone.
As Emperor Deqing's words fell, everyone in the palace looked at Zhao Junchen with envy and jealousy, and now the shape is clear, with the weight of these three birthday gifts, I am afraid that it will not be long after the birthday ceremony, Zhao Junchen will get the "return" of Emperor Deqing.
And Zhao Junchen looked flattered and unfazed, and saluted Emperor Deqing and said: "Your Majesty is too famous, as a courtier of Your Majesty, it is also appropriate to do some loyalty and filial piety for Your Majesty, and it is not worth your Majesty's special praise." ”
Seeing that Zhao Junchen was so humble, Emperor Deqing nodded with satisfaction on his face.
Next, the ceremony of presenting birthday gifts and birthday words to Emperor Deqing by the honorable officials in the court continued, but compared with the three birthday gifts sent by Zhao Junchen, the birthday gifts and birthday words presented by those people behind were inevitably overshadowed.
However, after Zhao Junchen's three birthday gifts, Emperor Deqing was very interested next, although there was no birthday gift worth mentioning, but Emperor Deqing was still full of smiles.
When the birthday ceremony was finally over, the sun was setting and it was almost dusk.
Under the high interest of Emperor Deqing, he announced that hundreds of officials would stay in the palace and enjoy the lantern banquet with Emperor Deqing.
Regarding Emperor Deqing's arrangement, the hundred officials naturally thanked him and did not mention it.
………
However, it is said that when the birthday ceremony finally came to an end, before the banquet of the lantern palace, Emperor Deqing left with the umbrella of the people, and the officials and nobles inside and outside the palace had a short period of free time, standing for an afternoon, always need to solve the fatigue and physiological problems of the body.
And Zhao Junchen was out of the limelight today, and among the politeness of everyone, he also walked towards the outside of the hall.
It's just that after walking a few steps, I heard a person call in a loud voice: "Zhao Shangshu, please stay." ”
Although it is a loud call, the weakness in the voice can be heard by anyone, and it always gives people a feeling of lack of strength and panting.
Zhao Junchen stopped, turned around to look, but found that Zhu Hejian, the seventh prince who had a relationship with each other a few days ago, was walking briskly towards him.
Zhao Junchen frowned, just now when he was celebrating the birthday of Emperor Deqing in the Taihe Palace, he saw it clearly, the seven princes Zhu Hejian have been standing with the crown prince Zhu Heyu, and even the birthday gifts given by the two to Emperor Deqing are all jade Ruyi that can be combined into a pair, and they were also praised by Emperor Deqing as "two brothers with one heart and one mind".
However, at this time, the crown prince Zhu and Yu have not left, Zhu Hejian is so blatantly meeting him, is he not afraid of causing the dissatisfaction of the prince Zhu and Yu?
Subconsciously, Zhao Junchen looked in the direction of the crown prince Zhu Heyu, but saw that Zhu Heyu was surrounded by a group of noble clans at this time, and seemed to notice Zhao Junchen's eyes, turned his head and glanced at Zhao Junchen, his eyes were full of coldness, and after noticing Zhu Hejian who was walking towards Zhao Junchen, the coldness turned into helplessness, as well as the brotherhood and trust that surprised Zhao Junchen.
Just as Zhao Junchen was thinking about it, the Seventh Prince Zhu Hejian had already come to Zhao Junchen's side, and said with a smile: "I have seen Lord Zhao, and I met Lord Zhao today, but it is to thank Lord Zhao for the precious medicinal materials that Lord Zhao sent me a few days ago, and my lord really has a heart." ”
Seeing that Zhu Hejian took the initiative to speak to him, Zhao Junchen hurriedly returned the salute and said: "Your Highness doesn't need to be like this, His Royal Highness was ill that day, and His Highness was in good health that day, and His Highness saw it in person, and it was also appropriate to send some medicinal materials to express his heart." ”
While speaking, Zhao Junchen glanced at Zhu Hejian up and down, but saw that Zhu Hejian's height was similar to Zhu Heyu, but he was much thinner, his face was pale and sweaty at this time, obviously Emperor Deqing's birthday ceremony made him stand for a full afternoon, with his body, some insistence should also be insufficient.
It's just that although he looks extremely tired, the humble and polite smile between Zhu and Jianshen at this time has not changed at all, and his eyes are a little dim, but more of them are still deep, and he doesn't seem to care about his body at all.
After a brief breath, Zhu Hejian shook his head and said, "In any case, it is a piece of Lord Zhao's heart, and I should thank you back." ”
Zhao Junchen nodded and asked meaningfully: "It's just that His Royal Highness is not afraid of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to blame me when he sees me like this?" ”
Zhu Hejian shook his head again, his expression was quite serious, and he smiled lightly: "I have been the most important word 'li' since I was a child, since I have received a gift from Lord Zhao, I should express my gratitude in return, for these, the prince knows it, how can he blame me?" ”
The heaviest word 'li'......
The smile on Zhao Junchen's face became more meaningful, and he said: "I see, but it is the lower official who spends the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain." ”
"Where, where." Zhu Hejian waved his hand and said: "However, when I met Lord Zhao, I actually had some doubts in my heart, and I wanted to ask Lord Yu to teach me." ”!。
