Section 16 Voyages

The academy has been preparing for this voyage for two years, from manpower to ships to the final scientific expedition personnel, there has been a detailed deployment, this time the ship going south will be led by Hypatia, and the boat going north will be led by the colorless son Xian Yu Tuo, this is the first time that Datang has prepared a comprehensive and complete understanding of the world in which he is located, of course, there is also Li Er's immortal information.

For this reason, Yun Ye blackmailed the emperor fiercely, transferred money and food from the inner treasury, and recruited a hundred and ten highly skilled and unspeakable guys from God knows, and the fourteen warships that had just been ordered to retire were evenly distributed between the two fleets, and after getting the highest power from Li Junxing could only come from the captain rather than a certain eunuch, Yun Ye ordered Li Rong to fully prepare to recruit the retired captains and soldiers of the Lingnan Naval Division, and prepare for such an unprecedented exploration.

The name was crowned by Li Er as the queen, and it was said to the outside world that this was a flower-picking activity that the queen's mother planned to carry out overseas exotic flowers and plants.

The Li family is this virtue, obviously the fat son of his family scratched his ears and cheeks and jumped up and down to ask his father for rubber, obviously the Ministry of Industry ambitiously planned to re-map the world, so as to prepare for the large-scale robbery that will be carried out in the future, and now from Li Er's mouth, it has become a beloved wife action to find a few strange flowers and plants for his wife to nourish her eyes.

With Fang Xuanling, a big head like Du Ruhui automatically drilled in, Yun Ye couldn't ask for it, the manpower and financial resources needed for the voyage were not ordinarily large, not to mention that they were two fleets, to put it bluntly, this operation was not productive. There is only unlimited investment.

"Why isn't your son going?" Fang Xuanling finally asked the most important question.

Yun Ye glanced at Fang Xuanling and said, "Rong'er is my own son!" ”

"It's really this reason, your own son naturally can't be sent to the tiger's mouth, it's much easier to send someone else's son, you say it's better for my Fang family to send someone, you tell me how dangerous it is first."

This is a treacherous one, if you send your own son over without fail, if there is only a general danger, send your nephew over, if it is very dangerous, send someone who is not afraid of death and wants to send death to the past, in short, the Fang family cannot be absent from such a huge operation. Absolutely no less. At least the name of the family must be included in the list of future awards or pensions.

As long as Yun Ye remembered the tragic fate of those great navigators in later history, his heart beat a drum, and at this time, sailing was more dangerous than the Age of Discovery. There is no comparison between the civilization created by one person and the civilization consciously developed by mankind itself. It is indeed an adventure that Datang is going to carry out at this time.

"When the academy determines the prime meridian. It was discovered that the earth was stored in an arc, and when measuring the Nikkei, it was found that the distance between the sun and the horizontal line at the same time varied from the arc according to the arc length of these arcs. They roughly calculated a result, so they guessed that we were living on a huge ball, and the ball was still rolling, even while flying in the void, so there was an alternation of black and white, spring, summer, autumn and winter, as for why the ball did not fall when it was rolling, Hypatia guessed, because there was a force that imprisoned this. So that we do not fall into the void.

This voyage is intended to confirm this conjecture, if the earth is really arc-shaped, then sail all the way south, and eventually they will return to the original point, as for the danger, you estimate for yourself, this trip does not know how many unknown places they will go, how many places that no one has ever visited, God knows what they will encounter and what kind of attack they will encounter. ”

Du Ruhui nodded and said: "I understand, it's just to tie your head to the crotch of your pants to see what God means to live, right?" In this case, the Du family still has a few children who love dangerous lives, just send them there. ”

The old guy is not shy about talking to Yun Ye now, what do you say, this is already treating Yun Ye as a person of the same level as himself, the meaning of the head of the family is almost the same, and the Cheng family is also the kind of person who is ready to exchange his life for fame at any time. As for Niu Jinda, he didn't have that plan at all.

The three of them were talking happily, when they heard a loud bang, a thick horse lance nailed into the rockery, and then there was Cheng Yanjin's laughter, as well as Xue Wanche's applause.

"It's obviously a lack of strength, the handle of the gun flew out of his hand, and he still has the face to say that it was done on purpose, when the old man is blind?"

As a generation of fierce generals, what he despises the most is a guy like Cheng Yanjin who likes to brag, because martial arts is his one of his things, and there is no room for the slightest blasphemy.

There was a ping-pong fight in the hall, and Fang Xuanling, who had long been surprised, waved his hand at Yun Ye, and left the Cheng family with his hands behind his back, which is also according to the usual practice, as long as the fight starts, the civil officials will leave.

Yun Ye couldn't escape, he sent the two old men away enviously, and returned to the hall by himself, this time it was good, Cheng Yanjin threw the vegetable bowl over very restrainedly, and then Wei Chigong's wine jug flew over, and now there was nothing on the table in front of the two of them, only Lu Zhaolin, who was sitting on Yun Ye's table, was drenched in vegetable soup, and his face turned pale with fright.

"Stupid, the old man is fighting, why don't you run?" Yun Ye whispered to Lu Zhaolin.

This kid looks like an honest child, if it was given to Yun Shou, Yun Huan and they would have run away a long time ago.

"It's rude to leave the table halfway!" Lu Zhaolin wiped the vegetable soup off his face and said to Yun Ye.

"You will participate in such banquets more times in the future, remember, as long as those elders move their blades, the first thing you have to do is to run quickly, just your chicken-like body, not enough for those veterans to grasp, our family is a general, not those civil officials, and there will definitely be no elders to blame you for this matter the next day."

After listening to Yun Ye's words, Lu Zhaolin immediately ran away, in the end, he was a kid who knew what was at stake, and he was very skilled in escaping.

The old man can't be persuaded to fight, only when they are tired of fighting, they will naturally stop, if you run up to persuade you at this time, the two of you will join forces to beat you, Cheng Chumo has been beaten before, and the result of the guide zhì is that his father has a banquet, and he never participates.

When Yun Ye walked out, he found that the rhino horn cup on Du Ruhui's table had a novel style, which had been shiny by rubbing, so he immediately grabbed it and put it in his arms, and then went out of the side door and went to Cheng Chumo's courtyard.

Yun Ye's servants all called him the young master, so the ladies of the family never shied away, and when they walked through the courtyard, they found that this guy was using a pair of huge stone locks to consume his excess energy.

Seeing a recliner next to him, he naturally walked over and lay on it, Cheng Chumo's little wife Jiuyi immediately brought over a teapot, Yun Ye took it with one hand, took a sip of tea, and watched the shirtless Cheng Chumo flip the two stone locks up and down.

Jiuyi cautiously approached Yun Ye and said, "Uncle came over today to attend grandpa's banquet?" ”

Yun Ye was very strange about Jiuyi's behavior of having nothing to say, she was not like this on weekdays, so she turned her head and said, "That's right, the old man called me over, don't I dare to come?" ”

"Huahua is going to marry into the Yun family, and I ask my uncle to discipline me more! There is a silver hairpin here in the concubine's body, which was originally a pair, and the eldest daughter married one, so this one will be given to Huahua. ”

Yun Ye frowned and said: "Huahua was born by you, although it is placed under the princess's knees, it won't change anything, you go to her directly, that child won't show you a face." ”

Jiuyi's eyes immediately moistened, and he whispered: "That's not good, people will laugh at Huahua for being a concubine, not to mention that the concubine is still a courtesan, and it is not good for Huahua's reputation to spread out." ”

Yun Ye said with a smile: "It's useless, when Huahua goes out, she not only has to say goodbye to Qinghe, but also to say goodbye to you, they are all mothers, and they will definitely not favor one over the other." The daughter-in-law of the Yun family doesn't need to care about other people's eyes. ”

Cheng Chumo threw down the stone lock and walked over shaking his tendons, Jiuyi didn't have time to talk more, so he hurriedly stepped forward to wipe the sweat beads on Cheng Chumo's body with a towel, and after drying it, he put on a robe for his husband, and left in a hurry, and glanced at Yun Ye very gratefully before leaving.

Cheng Chumo drank a pot of tea in one go, shook his chest muscles and asked Yun Ye: "What are you doing with my wife?" ”

Yun Ye spit out the tea stalk in his mouth and grinned: "When you speak in the future, think about it, if you are heard by others, what kind of system!" You don't feel the shivers yourself? ”

"What's that, brothers are like siblings, wives are like clothes, just change when they're gone."

"Come on, my wife is expensive, and you know that I am a forgetful person, so don't expect me to do what you do. Your wife gave me a hairpin! Yun Ye raised his eyebrows and said.

"Oh, then it doesn't matter, it's good to be happy, when do you want it, I'll send it to you tonight? It's just a little old, and you're going to use it. Cheng Chumo suddenly became interested, and also raised his eyebrows and said to Yun Ye.

"Get out! The more I talk, the more disgusting it becomes, let's talk about it, what kind of charter Huahua married, let me tell you first, don't forget Jiuyi when you say goodbye, she is also my old friend. ”

Cheng Chumo scratched his head and said in embarrassment: "You also know my mother's temperament, and you also know what kind of temper Qinghe is, if Jiuyi hadn't been protected by me all these years, he would have died eighty times."

Marrying your family is something my mother has always wanted to do, and he is still looking forward to marrying a daughter from your family, the Cheng family has done its best over the years, and your sisters forget it, but your daughter, my mother has been coveting it for a long time, Qinghe has no daughter, so Huahua has been by Qinghe's side since birth, which is also arranged by my mother, just waiting to marry your son.

It's impossible to marry Shou'er, my mother knows it herself, so she will marry Huahua to Huan'er, and the child marrying into your family is the best result, so I'm very happy. Jiuyi is also happy, so don't ruin our good mood, I have already said hello to Jiuyi about this, and she will live in the city when Huahua gets married. (To be continued......)
