Time flies, and half a month has passed in the blink of an eye. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

The moonlight was like a hook, and the night in Fu'an Village fell into silence, and the barking earth dogs in the village also stopped in this calm and peaceful atmosphere.

Yang Zi'an stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his back, looking at the waning moon hanging in mid-air, and couldn't help but fall into memory.

Yang Zi'an is Yang Wenfu's only son, and Lao Yang has high hopes for his son, and this high hope is not particularly strong, but he hopes that he can grow up safely.

The high probability of infant death in ancient times is terrifying, not to mention the sons of the common people, even the most noble and powerful emperor in the world, his sons and daughters, princes and princesses, do not dare to say that all of them can grow up healthy and healthy.

This is not alarmist, a person growing up, who does not have a headache, brain fever, cold and fever? At this time, there are no antibiotics and special drugs, and it is normal for children to die young.

Yang Zi'an has been frail and sickly since he was a child, and Yang Wenfu naturally attaches great importance to him, a baby son who has a single lineage. Yang Zi'an finally grew up without danger, and Yang Wenfu naturally took great care of his son.

At the beginning, Yang Wenfu buried his name in the people, incarnated as the lord of Yang Xiang on the rivers and lakes, monitored the vassal kings of all walks of life, and arrived in Luoyang, Henan, because of the danger of the task, Yang Wenfu arranged Yang Zi'an to Jiangnan.

Yang Zi'an thought that he had escaped from his father's control, but he didn't know that his whereabouts were actually arranged by Yang Wenfu, but Yang Wenfu, who had a lot of measurements, didn't expect that his son, and later he secretly ran to the sea!

In today's words, Yang Zi'an is also a second generation of officials, the common problem of the second generation of officials and the second generation of rich officials in ancient times is to love to travel thousands of miles, there are not many entertainment activities in this era, and tourism is naturally a hobby for those who have a lot of money and time.

Yang Wenfu, who learned the news, had already sent someone to chase Yang Zi'an back, but unfortunately, by the time Jinyiwei's people chased him to Jiangnan, Yang Zi'an had already gone to sea with the merchants.

However, at this time, the sea was not calm, the Age of Discovery had arrived, and the European colonial pioneers had already begun to dominate the world through the sea.

The Age of Discovery, also known as the Great Geographical Discovery, refers to the extensive transoceanic activities and major breakthroughs in geography initiated by all over the world, especially in Europe, in the 15th ~ 17th centuries.

These ocean-going activities facilitated communication between the continents of the planet and led to the creation of numerous new trade routes. With the opening of new shipping routes, cultural and trade exchanges between the East and the West increased substantially, and colonialism and free trade began to rise.

Europe grew rapidly during this period and laid the foundations for prosperity that surpassed Asia's. Not only did people discover new continents and increase their geographical knowledge during this era, but also greatly promoted Europe's overseas trade, which became one of the important links in the rise of European capitalism.

The impact of the new sea routes on the development of the world's continents hundreds of years later, and the impact of the great geographical discoveries on countries and peoples outside of Europe is also complex and contradictory.

At this time, Southeast Asia naturally could not escape the pace of invasion of the colonizers, and the maritime trade was lucrative, although the Ming Dynasty now implemented a sea ban and stipulated that a piece of sail was not allowed to enter the sea, but the coastal residents had no land, and there was a lot of saline-alkali land with land, which was naturally not suitable for farming.

As early as the 31st year of Wanli, the Spanish colonists massacred overseas Chinese in the Philippines, nearly 30,000 people were killed, and only more than 300 Chinese merchants in Luzon survived.

After a lapse of six years, more than 20,000 Chinese were killed due to the protest of local Ming merchants who went to sea to protest against excessive taxes, and 50,000 Chinese businessmen were killed in the Philippines in less than ten years.

These things were also learned by Yang Zi'an from the mouths of overseas Chinese businessmen after he went to sea, and Yang Zi'an heard a burst of anger in his heart at that time, but the accompanying Jinyi Wei persuaded: "These businessmen ignore the ban, ignore the laws of the imperial court, go to sea privately, and deserve to die." ”

Just as he had said this, the merchant ship they were on was bombarded by unknown ships. In order to come up to the three clippers, the bow of the boat stood with red-haired and blue-eyed long-haired ghosts.

Yang Zi'an closed his eyes, breathed heavily, clenched his teeth, the muscles in his cheeks bulged one after another, and the green tendons on the back of his hands rose up, as if he had fallen into the situation of the sword body fire again.

That battle was a crushing battle, they were a merchant ship, not a war ship, and there were old and weak women and children on board who had taken a boat from Luzon and other places back to the Ming Dynasty, and the young men on the ship were beheaded by pirates before they could resist for a moment......

The merchants on the merchant ship banded together to pay a toll and beg them to spare their ship, but the red-haired ghosts took the money and killed the people who gave them the money.

Only then did people realize that they were not just asking for money, but also wanted to take their lives and the ship!

Everyone resisted, but at this time the people had already disarmed, and people fought with the heavily armed haired ghosts with their bare hands.

Yang Zi'an and the entourage of Jinyiwei also resisted, although Yang Zi'an's kung fu was not as good as his sister Yang Xuening, but after all, he studied under Li Heishi, a master, although the other party was overwhelming, but he didn't stop him for a while, and a group of Jinyiwei desperately sent him, Lord Yang, off the boat.

Under the ship is the boundless sea, on the boat is the sea of swords and swords, although jumping into the sea is nine deaths, but on the ship is ten deaths!

Yang Zi'an couldn't swim, but at this critical juncture, he held the wood given to him by his subordinates and plunged into the sea.

"Lord Yang, let's go!"

"Lord Yang, hold on to the wood, and don't let go no matter what!"

"Lord Yang......"

In the end, what sounded in Yang Zi'an's ears was the advice of his subordinates, as well as the screams of people......

Yang Zi'an slowly opened his eyes, his eyes were extremely red, and he said word by word: "I will definitely avenge you!" Certain! When these words were spoken, the peaceful atmosphere in the small courtyard began to become gloomy.

"Brother Yang, aren't you sleeping yet?"

Yang Zi'an turned around and saw a girl in a white shirt standing behind him, and the girl's face could be seen clearly under the moonlight, a goose egg face, a delicate nose, a small mouth like a diamond leaf, a trace of worry flashing in her pretty eyes, holding the door frame with one hand, and looking at him prettyly.

Yang Zi'an reluctantly showed a smile and said, "That's it, Sister Yu'er, you should rest early." ”

That night, Yang Zi'an slept unsteadily, and his mind kept thinking about the scene on the ship that day, and he had vowed to avenge them, but now it was a thousand difficulties.

When the news of the massacre of overseas Chinese came back to the Ming Dynasty, the imperial court replied: "The Chinese killed were all going abroad without permission, and the crime is unforgivable." ”

Now that he is going to sea privately, even if he can return to his father's side, he can't, and it is impossible to get the support of the imperial court, which now has a headache in Liaodong, not the sea......

Yang Zi'an sat up suddenly, looked out the window at the sky with fish white, and clenched his fists: "No matter what, I have to try, and contact my father as soon as possible!" ”

Yang Zi made up his mind in his heart, but when he thought of the girl under the moon last night, he suddenly panicked again.
