As a human being in two lives, Fang Jun once boasted that he was a person with a strong mind, but now that he encounters such mysterious problems, he will inevitably be in a trance and suspicious.

Even in the next few days, I was a little absent-minded in dealing with official business......

On this day, I was sitting in the yamen duty room, next to the window enjoying the sun shining on my body through the glass window, holding a small teapot in my hand from time to time to suck it, my whole body was warm and warm, and it seemed to be very comfortable, and it seemed to be a little unrefreshing.

looked at the long-dried trees outside the window without focus, and wondered what excuse to enter the palace to meet Princess Changle, even if it was just from a distance...... Immediately, he was startled by this dirty thought, and laughed self-deprecatingly.

Sure enough, men don't have a good thing, even if they can grit their teeth under Miki and stand up between life and death, they often sink in the gentle countryside and can't return, and their ambitions are exhausted. Most importantly, as the saying goes, "A wife is not as good as a concubine, a concubine is not as good as stealing, and stealing is better than stealing".

No matter how sanctimonious a man is, there will always be such a dark and dirty place in the depths of his heart, and he can't talk to others, this is human nature......

Sucked a sip of tea, put the teapot on the bookcase, stood up and stretched, was about to let the little official go to Songhe Tower to buy a few exquisite dishes, at noon with a few deputies in the yamen to have a good meal, in the afternoon played a few rounds of mahjong, then I saw a soldier dressed in the costume of a sailor rushing in from the main gate, the guard at the door chased behind, shouting: "Stop him!" This is the Yamen of the Ministry of War, a heavy military aircraft, your special mother actually trespassed, and she doesn't want to live? ”

The sailor soldier shouted while running: "My marquis is here?" There is an urgent military report, and there is no delay for a moment! ”

Then an official went out from the main hall, tried to stop him, and shouted: "Fang Shilang is in the yamen, you are so arrogant, you are not afraid of military law!" ”

The soldier ignored it and shouted, "Master Hou! Master Hou! The small one has an important military intelligence report! ”

Fang Jun had already walked out of the duty room quickly, stood on the steps in front of the main hall, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you tell me?" ”

The soldier ran out of breath, knelt down on one knee and saluted, and said intermittently: "Boat...... Fleet...... The flotilla is back......"

"The fleet is back?"

Fang Jun was inexplicable, and said soothingly: "I'm panting, speak slowly." ”

"......"

The soldier took a few sharp breaths, stabilized his breath, and then said: "Tian Yun is here, it is Tian Yun's fleet that is back!" ”

"Tian Yunlai?"

Fang Jun muttered, and then his complexion changed greatly, and his whole body was shocked!

"Tian Yun is coming back?" He stepped forward suddenly, grabbed his soldier by the collar, and dragged his body off the ground, eager to ask.

"Ho...... Ho ......"

The soldier was suddenly pulled by the collar, his neck was so out of breath, his face was flushed, and his hands waved desperately and struggled, but he didn't dare to touch Fang Jun......

"Fang Shilang, loosen your hands, this person is going to be strangled......" The official on the side couldn't see it, stepped forward, and reminded in a low voice.

Fang Jun woke up and hurriedly let go.

He was so excited!

According to the plan, Tian Yunlai should have returned a long time ago, but he was nowhere to be seen, Fang Jun thought that it must be more auspicious than him, in this era, no one knows better than him what kind of dangers and difficulties he faces in crossing the Pacific Ocean, which not only requires advanced ships and excellent navigation skills, but also needs luck against the sky and the favor of God!

Entering the vast Pacific Ocean is equivalent to entering the Ghost Gate, and their lives are always under the nose of the king of Hades!

He had long been dead to the fleet that Tian had brought in, and was preparing to wait until after the Eastern Expedition to send a fleet across the Pacific Ocean to explore the American continent in search of corn, potatoes and other grains. Ocean exploration is a big gamble, and if you can succeed in one out of ten, you will have hit a big luck.

But I never thought that Tian Yunlai would come back......

"What did they bring back?"

Fang Jun stared at this soldier with red eyes, and did not ask about the damage to the ship and the casualties of the personnel at the first time, because in the face of the possible harvest, everything was insignificant!

And only he knows what corn and potatoes mean!

The soldiers hurriedly said: "As soon as the fleet returned to the shore, Pei Changshi ordered all the sailors stationed in the port to dispatch to surround the fleet tightly, and strictly ordered anyone not to approach half a step, not to inquire at will, and those who violated the order were killed!" Only the small one came to report to the Hou Ye day and night, and the rest of the things, the little ones didn't know! ”

Fang Jun clenched his fist with his right hand and hit it hard in his left palm, and the excitement in his heart was unbearable!

The fleet must have gained something, so Pei Xingjian will be so solemn!

"Come, quickly enter the palace to meet Your Majesty, and say that a fleet sent by this official to explore the ocean has returned, and this official has gone to see what he has gained! Come on, prepare the horse, and the official will go to Huating Town immediately! ”

hurriedly made some arrangements to leave the soldier in Chang'an to recuperate, after all, all the way from Huating Town to Chang'an day and night, he was already extremely tired, if he was allowed to follow him back, I am afraid that he would die of exhaustion on the way. He sent someone to send a letter to his family, and he couldn't wait to take the ordinary guards of his family generals, and quickly whipped out of Chang'an City and went straight to Tongguan.

Although the waterway is smooth and much more labor-saving, but the speed is too slow, Fang Jun's heart is hot at the moment, where can he tolerate the slow speed of the boat?

Immediately with the family generals, along the official road straight to Huating Town, along the way a person and two horses Xiaoxing overnight, every post station will change horses, six days later arrived at Huating Town, everyone is dusty, has been tired of not being human......

Since no one had been arranged to deliver the letter before, because they were too fast, faster than the Tanma who delivered the letter, all the officials knew nothing when they arrived in Huating Town.

It wasn't until Fang Jun appeared at the gate of the town office with a scruffy face, his hair rolled out after taking off his hat, and obvious chilblains on his ears that a group of officials and officials woke up like a dream, hurriedly invited Fang Jun into the lobby, and went to inform Pei Xingjian.

When Pei Xingjian hurried over after hearing the news, he was immediately startled when he saw Fang Jun's embarrassed appearance, and said repeatedly: "Why is Master Hou so anxious? The fleet on the left and right has already returned, and it is repairing at the saltworks by the sea at this moment, can it still fly to the sky? Look at what it's all like...... Quickly sit down and rest, and the subordinate ordered someone to prepare hot water to bathe and change clothes, and then prepare a meal......"

He knew that Fang Jun had great hopes for the ocean-going expedition fleet, but he still underestimated how big this hope was, so it was difficult to understand why Fang Jun set off from Chang'an immediately after hearing the news, all the way, and even didn't even take a boat in order to reach Huating Town as soon as possible......

But where can Fang Jun sit?

That fleet carries the hope of surpassing the times!

If Tian Yunlai and the others really arrived in the Americas and found the plants he painted on paper......

"Hurry up and wait for so-and-so, don't stay!"

Fang Jun gave a command, then turned around and walked out of the lobby.

It's just that because of the horseback riding for days, the inner flesh of the two legs has already been ground to the flesh and blood, and even the muscles are strained and rigid, just a few steps, then one stumble, almost fell an upside down onion!

Pei Xingjian was startled, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Fang Jun up, shouting, "Someone!" ”

The pro-soldiers who came with Fang Jun were even more unbearable than Fang Jun, one by one staggered, they couldn't stand up when they got off the horse, struggled a few steps, and saw the officials of Huating Town stepping forward to support Fang Jun, so they had to sit down on the spot, their buttocks touched the ground, and their bones seemed to fall apart, and they didn't want to stand up again......

Pei Xingjian's expression was solemn, seeing that Fang Jun was tossed to such a state because he was in a hurry, how could he not see that Fang Jun attached much more importance to that fleet than he expected? Naturally, he didn't dare to slack off, ordered someone to find a soft sedan chair, helped Fang Jun up, hurriedly went straight to the wharf, got on a clipper of the sailors, raised the anchor, went straight out of the wharf, turned into the Yangtze River waterway along the Wusong River, went all the way down the water, went all the way down the water, went all the way south along the coast after going to sea, and went a distance away, then saw the sails on the sea, and many sailors and warships blocked the sea near the coast tightly, and even on the shore was a camp tent of dozens of steps, and a team of soldiers patrolled back and forth, Idlers and others can't get closer at all.

And under the tight protection of both land and water, three or four dilapidated warships docked at the seashore.

Fang Jun's eyes suddenly heated!

When they went to sea, this was a huge fleet of dozens of ships, but now they have lost ten of them, and you can imagine what difficulties and dangers they have experienced on the vast ocean.

The distance was getting closer and closer, but Fang Jun felt that his mouth was getting more and more dry.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, and in case the fleet did not reach the Americas, it brought back what it hoped for......
