In the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, Liu Xie and Empress Fushou sat side by side, and the prince Liu Wen stood beside Liu Xie, with a camera opposite them, and the photographer held a flash in his hand and said: "Your Majesty, Niangniang, Your Highness, look at the camera and smile, 3,2,1......"

"Click......

The photographer said, "Okay, Your Majesty, in three days, the photo will be ready to be washed out." ”

Fu Shou moved his body and said, "Oh, is this a photo?" Keeping one action and not moving, tired the concubine to death. ”

Liu Xie smiled and said: "What are you, when I conquered the East Widow last year, I didn't have a camera, and I asked the painter to paint for me, but I kept it for a lot more time." ”

While speaking, in the corner of the room, the brain printer has been working, and there is a palace maid on the side who is collecting the printed materials.

As he was talking, a eunuch said, "Your Majesty, Concubine Xiahou asks to see you." ”

Liu Xie said with a smile: "This Xiahou Ling must have heard about the camera, and she also wants to join in the fun to take pictures." Announce her in, and let her take a picture too. ”

After a while, Xiahou Ling came in and said, "Your Majesty." ”

Liu Xie asked, "What, do you want to take pictures too?" ”

Xiahou Ling shook her head and said, "Your Majesty, Lu Su is about to sail away, and Man Man always begs his concubines to follow Lu Su on a long voyage." ”

Liu Xie said: "What, why does Liu Man also want to sail?" Did she sneak away too? ”

Xiahou Ling said: "Then she didn't dare, she just begged me to go all day long." ”

Liu Xie said: "Then you came to me, it means that you want her to go?" ”

Xiahou Ling shook her head and said, "The concubine doesn't know if she should be allowed to go." ”

Liu Xie asked, "Then how did she tell you?" ”

Xiahou Ling said: "She said that Xiaoxue is as old as her and can go, why can't she go." She has her eye on Xiaoxue now. ”

"So what do you think?" Liu Xie asked.

Xia Houling said: "The concubine definitely doesn't want her to go, she is a girl, and she is so young, how can I be willing to give it?" But the concubine saw that Sister Yan'er was so protective of her children that she was willing to let her children go, so why couldn't I? Also, I also want Manman and Xiaoxue to be together and take care of each other. ”

Liu Xie smiled and said, "In your subconscious, you have actually agreed to let Man Man go, right?" ”

Xia Houling nodded and snorted.

Liu Xie asked her to call Liu Man, Xia Houling went out, and brought Liu Man after a while. Liu Man is as big as Liu Xue, and he is also very cute and beautiful, but he is not as bold as Liu Xue, and as soon as he came in, he immediately knelt down and said: "Son-in-law Liu Man pays a visit to his father." ”

Liu Xie asked: "Do you want to go overseas with Lu Su to experience some of the world?" ”

Liu Man said: "Yes, father." ”

"Well, then do you know that if you want to go to sea, you need three chapters of the law."

Liu Man said: "Father, I know everything, Liu Xue has told me." ”

"Oh? After Liu Xue came back from overseas, did she play with you all day long, and then show off to you? ”

Liu Man replied: "She told me, but she didn't show off, she just told me some overseas anecdotes." ”

"So you're itching to go?"

Liu Man smiled and said, "Yes, father." ”

"Then you can think about it," Liu Xie said, "going to sea is very bitter, a hundred times more bitter than at home, and you won't have time to cry when the time comes." ”

Liu Man said: "But I'm not afraid, I can endure hardship, father, I am the daughter of the emperor of the world, if I can't even endure this hardship, then I am not worthy of being the daughter of the emperor!" ”

"Well, yes, well said! Then ......" Liu Xie said this, looking back at Xia Houling, "I promised you?" ”

Liu Man hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him: "Thank you, father!" The son's voyage to the sea this time will never disappoint his father! ”

Xia Houling also shook her head helplessly and said, "Hey, you children." ”

Liu Xie pulled Xiahou Ling over and said, "Okay, don't be too sad, Yan Er was reluctant at the beginning, didn't you let Xiaoxue go in the end?" Children, it's time for them to go out and see the world and see it for a long time. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Xia Houling reached. This Xiahou Ling was born as a cold-blooded killer at the beginning, and after returning to the Han Dynasty, he also went into battle and killed the enemy, but in front of him, he always showed the softest side.

A few days later, Lusu's fleet of thirty warships and civilian steamships set off from the Beihai port of Xuzhou and headed for South America. This time I brought more supplies and colonists than last time, and I also brought two small guests, Princess Xue'er Liu Xue and Princess Changle Liu Man.

Liu Xue is sailing for the second time, and Liu Man is the first time, so Liu Xue is like a big sister and takes her to shuttle on the boat.

Not long after Lu Su's fleet left, Pang Tong also began his North American voyage, and like Lu Su, his fleet was also thirty ships, consisting of a mixture of warships and civilian passenger and cargo ships.

After these two fleets arrived in North and South America respectively, they began a long-term colonization campaign, and there would be a steamship flight between the Han mainland and the Americas every day, or three to five days, to spread the Han culture to the greatest extent.

Not long after Pang Tong left, Lu Xun finally returned to the Han mainland after nearly half a year in the world. He followed the American coastline, crossed the strait between South America and Antarctica (Drake Passage), and entered the Atlantic Ocean.

Then we went to Africa.

Because Lu Xun was in a hurry to return to China and didn't dare to delay too much of the world overseas, he went all the way north along the west coast of Africa to Europe, and only traveled and investigated the European coast, and then reached the Mediterranean Sea, and went around the Mediterranean coast.

Since there was no Suez Canal at the time, he crossed the strait (the Strait of Gibraltar) in the western Mediterranean to connect Europe and Africa, and re-entered the Atlantic.

Then along the west coast of Africa, through the southernmost tip of Africa, to the Indian Ocean, then along the east coast of Africa to the north, to the Indian Ocean, then along Persia, the South Asian subcontinent, the Nanban Peninsula, and finally to the Han Sea, the Han territory, into Yangzhou Ningbo Port ashore, and then quickly whip up, all the way back to Luoyang Miansheng.

At the court, Lu Xun introduced the adventure process and the human geography along the way to Liu Xie and the ministers.

Lu Xun said excitedly: "Your Majesty, my lords, when I return to the Han realm, I can finally be sure that the earth is really round!" ”

One of the ministers said, "That's impossible! You say that if the earth were round, then we are now standing with our heads up, and aren't the people on the round side with their heads down? Isn't that going down?
