Chapter 384: The Emperor's Arrival in the South China Sea (Part I)
ps: Thank you for the monthly pass support of the autumn leaves!
Carefully scooping out a spoonful of seashells from the boiling water with a colander, Ye Yingwu sniffed lightly, the natural fishy smell of the seafood has been diluted a lot by the seasoning, and all that remains is the attractive fragrance and the white and tender flesh that can be faintly seen between the opening and closing of the shell. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
"Come, one spoonful per person, no one can grab it." Ye Yingwu stood up and put a lot of it in a bowl.
His Royal Highness the dignified Ming King, who can make Daming tremble by stomping his feet, is standing on the beach with his sleeves and trouser legs on his sleeves and trouser legs, and his body is even more simple Ge cloth robe, and he drags a person over on the street of Daming's state capital, I am afraid that he will not believe that this is the young man who has almost become a legend who supports the great dynasty.
"Wei'er, don't panic, your sister Huiniang won't really rob you." Zhao Yunshu stretched out her hand and gently combed Wei'er's hair with pity and sigh, this girl was taken by Ye Yingwu on the beach for a day today, her hair was wet, not to mention, she was covered in sand, which made people helpless.
In fact, there is no need for Zhao Yunshu to say, Hui Niang will not rob it, because she is still carefully building her own sand castle not far away, this activity has lasted for a full afternoon, so that Ye Yingwu even regrets making such a suggestion in the first place.
"Come, don't care about the two of them, try it first." Ye Yingwu directly scooped up a handful of seawater to wash his hands, then peeled off a clam and handed it to Zhao Yunshu, Shu'er smiled lightly, took it and put the meat in his mouth, and peeled it off Wei'er, who was already drooling, regardless of the hot hands.
Ye Yingwu stretched his waist and leaned on the reef: "Compared with Quanzhou, this Yazhou is more like a fairyland on earth. ”
Stretching out his hand and gently brushing his hair, Zhao Yunshu nodded: "The sea, coconut trees, compared with Jiangnan, seem to have come to a completely different world, who would have thought that such a scenery would be in Nanyang." ”
Half of the sunset has sunk into the sea, rendering the water and sky in a mesmerizing vividness, while the coconut trees behind them sway in the wind, and the coconut shells scattered on the beach indicate that several people did not miss the delicacy of coconuts earlier.
"Shu'er, you've been sitting on this reef for half an afternoon, come down and take a walk." Ye Yingwu stretched out his arms and said with a smile, "Just jump down, catch you." ”
Zhao Yunshu's face was slightly red, but Wei'er on the side winked at Ye Yingwu with a smile, and then pushed Zhao Yunshu on the back without hesitation. Shu Er was stunned, and she had already screamed and fell into Ye Yingwu's arms.
Ye Yingwu grabbed Nephrite and gave Wei'er an appreciative look, but he also knew that there was a price for letting his sister-in-law help, and Zhao Yunwei would definitely put it first when there was something delicious next time. Zhao Yunshu gently slapped Ye Yingwu, broke free from his arms, and gave him a white look, with an intoxicating style:
"Satisfied this time? There are always petty traitors in the house. ”
At that moment, Zhao Yunshu didn't hesitate much, while kicking off his shoes, his white jade feet stepped on the delicate sand, and after thinking about it, the girl carefully lifted up her skirt and tied it around her waist, and walked out of her smooth and slender calves, before she fell and graciously held Ye Yingwu's hand.
The two of them ran from under the reef towards the water, although it was late August, but the weather in the south was as hot as ever, and the cool water was always the best choice at this time. The waves are surging and white water droplets are splashing. Even Zhao Yunwei, who was ignorant and did not move the **** of men and women, couldn't help but be stupid when he watched it at this time, and even forgot to pick up the clam from the bowl and eat it.
After a lot of incense, Ye Yingwu dragged the exhausted Shu'er back to the sea and rushed out, the clothes of the two people were already soaked from top to bottom, and Zhao Yun's graceful figure was vividly outlined by the skirt that was tightly attached to his body.
But fortunately, the guards are far away, and Ye Yingwu doesn't have to worry about his wife being seen. At the moment, he casually ripped off his shirt, Ye Yingwu ignored Zhao Yunshu's objections, and ripped off all the girl's soaked coats, and directly picked up the cloak that he had taken off before and was still dry, and wrapped Zhao Yunshu tightly.
Anyway, there were no outsiders present, and although Shu'er was thin-skinned, it was better than wet clothes sticking to her body, so she went with him. And a wicked smile flashed at the corner of Ye Yingwu's mouth, and Zhao Yunshu, who was hurriedly tidying up his clothes, rushed to the sand castle not far away.
"Husband!" Looking at Ye Yingwu, who smashed the whole person on the sand castle, Hui Niang was so angry that she stomped her feet, she had worked hard all afternoon, this guy really didn't clean up.
Seeing that Hui Niang's tears were about to come out, Ye Yingwu laughed heartlessly, causing the little girl to throw herself into his arms and pick up her little fist is a violent beating.
"Hui Niang, you are murdering your husband!" Ye Yingwu hugged Hui Niang's slender waist and pressed her into his arms, and the two of them continued to roll and pull in the place where the original sand castle was, completely leveling the sand that could still see some outlines.
Wang Qinghui, who found that he had fallen for Ye Yingwu's tricks, wanted to struggle aggrievedly, but Ye Yingwu was stunned, staring directly at his chest.
I don't know when, this girl who has always been fourteen or fifteen years old in her impression, can feel the soft feeling of the pigeon, especially when the two of them tossed and were disheveled, Ye Yingwu could even clearly see the intoxicating ravine.
"Scoundrel!" Hui Niang also found out what Ye Yingwu was looking at, her pretty face was flushed, where could she still care about settling accounts with Ye Yingwu, I was afraid that if she was one step slower, she would be eaten by this guy and there would be no scum left. The little girl threw herself into Zhao Yunshu's arms in a panic, "Sister Shu'er, husband is a scoundrel again." ”
Zhao Yunshu reluctantly rearranged Hui Niang's hair that had spread out, and said in a low voice: "Hui Niang, you just accept your fate, who in the back house can live this scoundrel guy, it is our sisters who have suffered a few lives, and they have done too many evils in their previous years, and the result is ······"
"Okay, pretend to be pitiful at this time." Ye Yingwu stood up cleanly, stretched out his hand on the left and the right to hug firmly, "Hurry up and eat, and you can soak in the hot springs comfortably at night." ”
Hui Niang couldn't help but stick out her tongue: "Faint Jun! ”
Ye Yingwu immediately glared at Hui Niang: "Little girl, do you believe that so-and-so will eat you clean tonight?" In this barren mountains and mountains of Yazhou, there are all sons and daughters around, and your sister Shu'er can't protect herself, so I want to see who can save you. ”
Frightened by Ye Yingwu, Hui Niang couldn't help but shrink. And Zhao Yunshu lazily leaned on Ye Yingwu's shoulder: "Husband, the concubine is a little tired today, it's better for the husband to ······ alone at night."
Ye Yingwu paused, and said with a wicked smile: "Hot springs are a good medicine for fatigue, wait a while and press Shu'er to soak in it for two hours, and tonight there will be five hundred rounds of battle!" ”
"Who told you to say these things!" Zhao Yunshu's face was flushed, and she couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get into.
And Hui Niang, who understood it, also had a red face, pursed her lips and said nothing.
——————————————————
The countries of the South Seas, not only including Annam, Chenla, Champang, Sriwijaya and so on that can communicate with the Ming Dynasty by land, but also many large and small countries on the sea, and the only countries that can really be regarded as civilized are the Bo Ni Kingdom (near present-day Brunei and Malaysia) and the Japo Kingdom (near present-day Indonesia), of course, this so-called civilization, that is, there are records of exchanges with the former Song Dynasty, and have a place of residence that can be called a "village", and occupy the upper hand in the large and small "tribal conflicts" in the Nanyang.
Although these scattered countries on the islands of the South Seas are not qualified "countries" at all, they also have a sufficient number of troops and combat power, especially through the routes of the former Song Dynasty in the South China Sea and the Western Ocean, and they have developed a fleet of ships of considerable size.
Although this kind of fleet formed by buying second-hand and dilapidated merchant ships from merchants and refitting them by themselves, although they are so shabby that they dare not be complimented, once they rely on the geographical advantage to attack them, it is like a pack of wolves defeating lions, which is still terrifying.
This is also why Ye Yingwu now has leisure to vacation in Yazhou.
Realizing the danger of destroying the country, the two kings reached an alliance, and a sailor with two or three hundred large and small warships was waiting for the enemy to come to the door in the sea area west of Boni and north of Japo.
Not to mention two or three hundred large and small warships, even if there is a warship that can threaten the personal safety of Ye Yingwu, who is patrolling the South Seas, and the main force of the Daming Naval Division that gathers in the South Seas, they will all be humiliated. Especially now that Ye Yingwu has only five flying clippers by his side, this kind of fast-running warship really fights, and no one dares to pat his chest to ensure that nothing goes wrong.
Therefore, Zhang Gui and Bai Nutao and others did not hesitate to leave Zhenla, and the main force came to Yazhou to escort them, while the striker killed Ben Boni, and said that they had to see and understand, the reason why Daming is called Daming is definitely not vegetarian.
Of course, Ye Yingwu was not so anxious to tour the south, otherwise according to his character, he would have led the fleet to kill him, and where would he need the sailor to run back thousands of miles to escort him. In this Yazhou, Ye Yingwu still has a big thing to do.
"Husband, can you really make the word bigger?" Hui Niang lay beside Ye Yingwu, watching her husband carefully fiddle with the somewhat nondescript crystal that was cut and polished.
Ye Yingwu nodded, he stayed in Yazhou, the most important purpose is for the crystal of Hainan, after all, the manufacture of this glass is still limited to the burning of glass, there is no way to control the era of fire, and it is more difficult to fire qualified glass than to ascend to the sky, so Ye Yingwu simply put the idea on the crystal.
Although it is very valuable, it does not take much to make magnifying glasses, telescopes, or even microscopes.
According to Marco Polo, the magnifying glass was first invented by an unknown craftsman in China in the late Song and early Yuan dynasties, and many elderly people in wealthy families would use this expensive mirror to enlarge the smaller fonts on books.
However, looking at Hui Niang's surprised expressions, Ye Yingwu knew that he was one step ahead of this era, because he guessed that the magnifying glass was also made up by Guo Shoujing and his subordinates, but now Guo Shoujing is busy in the shipyard, so naturally he doesn't have the time to care about these trivial things.
But Ye Yingwu knew that whether it was to march and fight in the future, or to promote the development of scientific research in the Ming Dynasty, magnifying glasses, telescopes and microscopes all played an irreplaceable role. If you want Daming to continue to maintain the status of the Heavenly Empire, you have to push it at the right time.
Hui Niang grabbed the lenses with some disbelief, and then aimed at the piece on the small table, and her eyes suddenly widened: "Really······ It's true! ”
"That's still fake!" Ye Yingwu was a little dissatisfied and patted her (harmonious) buttocks, "You dare to doubt your husband, it's really underwhelming." ”
Hui Niang was obviously attracted by the magnifying glass, and just snorted to express her dissatisfaction.
And Ye Yingwu stretched a lazy waist, this is just a magnifying glass, and after the second lens is polished, it is estimated that the world's first telescope will be born, as long as there is one, there will naturally be two, and then the group of sailor generals will not be happy and crazy.
The mist rises among the coconut groves, a small tray floats on the water, the warm coconut water in the water presents an attractive milky white in the cup, and the jackfruit and fresh coconut meat of Yazhou are neatly placed on the porcelain plate. Wei'er, the girl only had her head exposed on the water, lazily picked up a piece of jackfruit, opened her mouth wide and swallowed it whole, and after a while, she opened her mouth and spit out the kernel in another tray.
Ye Yingwu raised his eyebrows, standing on the edge of the hot spring pool, he could clearly see that the little girl under the water didn't know when she was naked, and her little belly was bulging. However, it was obvious that this sister-in-law was not interested in Ye Yingwu's gaze, and her eyes kept staring at the fruit on the tray and never left.
The water surface in the hot spring pool not far away separated, Zhao Yunshu stood up from the pool, the water droplets hung on the white skin, although he was wet, but after all, Shu'er was still wearing a layer of dark chebula, obviously the girl had been wary of Ye Yingwu's bestial hair regardless of the occasion.
When he saw Ye Yingwu standing behind his sister and wearing only a pair of shorts around his waist, Zhao Yunshu's eyes still widened subconsciously, but he still barely held back and didn't provoke this big devil, and turned to look at his sister: "Wei'er, why don't you wear clothes!" ”
Zhao Yun glanced at his sister in some surprise, obviously not realizing that there was a guy standing behind him, holding a piece of coconut meat in his mouth and speaking indistinctly: "Comfortable, sister, why are you wearing clothes?" The villain big brother and Sister Hui Niang are together, what are you afraid of. ”
"Who······ Who said his sister was afraid of him! Zhao Yunshu suddenly said indignantly, but half of his body subconsciously shrank underwater.
Wei'er swallowed the food in her mouth, leaned forward slightly, and looked like a steady victory: "The last time my sister took a nap, I shouted the name of my eldest brother in my dream, and said that he was a scoundrel, so I knew how to bully people, don't think I don't know, it's useless for my sister to cheat!" ”
"Wei'er!" Zhao Yunshu felt that the sky was dark for a while, and he couldn't care about Ye Yingwu standing by the pool with a smile and watching the excitement, if he didn't clean up this little girl, he might say something.
"My sister also said when I took a bath last time that my eldest brother always used so much force that it hurt his body for two days!" Zhao Yun chuckled slightly, "When I went to look for you, I happened to meet you bathing, although those maids didn't let me in, but they didn't say that they wouldn't let me steal ······ behind the screen."
Looking at his sister who rushed over angrily, Zhao Yun exclaimed slightly, but there was no place to dodge behind her, the girl's eyes suddenly widened, her little face turned pale, this time she forgot to think about the way back, the eldest brother was not there, and she had to die in the hands of her sister without a place to be buried.
But before this girl came back to her senses, Ye Yingwu had already leisurely carried her out of the water, and did not forget to pinch her little face with baby fat: "Wei'er, it's very good, big brother will show you something to watch and have fun later, of course, this has to be after the big brother cleans up your sister." ”
Zhao Yunwei suddenly realized that he seemed to have hurt his sister, and bit his finger at the moment: "Big brother, sister, she ······ She didn't mean to······"
Ye Yingwu threw the little girl into another pool with a smile, and then squatted down and looked at Zhao Yunshu who was stunned there with interest: "Shu'er, since ancient times, the harem has been deceitful to me, you are so open-mouthed that people can listen to everything, what can I do in the future." ”
Zhao Yunshu subconsciously took a step back, and Ye Yingwu shook his head, jumped into the pool, reached out to hold the girl's wrist, dragged her over, and gently stroked her wet hair: "It was the husband's fault before, knowing that you are weak and always blindly by your own temperament, I promise that next time I will be gentle, so that the baby is comfortable." ”
"Husband······" Zhao Yunshu raised his head and looked at Ye Yingwu in some surprise.
"Just let so-and-so hold you like this······" Before Ye Yingwu's words fell, his eyes widened, and Zhao Yunshu's kiss had already fallen on his lips.
Soft and warm.
Silly girl, Ye Yingwu couldn't help but sigh secretly. (To be continued.) )
