Li Zhixian continued: "Later, the capital increased the checkpoints and blocked all the exits, and Chen Xiong had no chance to escape with his men. His movements, Zheng Zongbing's judgment is reasonable, before, Chen Xiong has been rushing ahead of us, setting up an ambush, it seems that he has escaped from the capital last night, will wait for us in front. Looking back now, his arrangement was really terrible, and this person must try to get rid of it. ”

Zheng He nodded, and said to Wang Hou: "The fleet has been staying in Sumatra for half a month, according to the plan, there is still half a month to set sail, the next stop, after leaving the Raga Strait, I will take some people to the north to go to the country of Banggara; The other part will go west, directly to the Kingdom of Ceylon. ”

Punggara is located in the area of present-day Bangladesh and Bengal, India. In the Eastern Han Dynasty, it was called Tianzhu, and in the Tang Dynasty, it was divided into five Tianzhu, also known as five Indias, and it was still called Tianzhu in the Song Dynasty. The history of the Ming Dynasty records: from Sumatra 20 days and nights to the wind, its country is large, the city market, the gathering of goods and trade, the prosperity and China is almost the same. At four o'clock, the climate is often like summer, the folk customs are pure, and men and women are diligent in farming and weaving. Tribute to China during the Yongle period.

The State of Ceylon, located on the island of present-day Sri Lanka, was a well-known trading hub and a transit point for ocean voyages. According to the history of the Ming Dynasty, King Arekhunar liked to do some pirate things, which caused many contradictions in the surrounding countries. Zheng He's first envoy to Ceylon was instigated by Chen Zuyi to conspire to harm Zheng He.

However, when Zheng He passed through Ceylon again on his return journey, the king lured Zheng He ashore and then used 50,000 soldiers to loot the treasure ship. At that time, Zheng He only brought 2,000 men, and did not resist them, turned around and attacked his capital, captured the queen and the leader alive, and later captured the king and brought them back to the Ming Dynasty. Although Chen Zuyi was not caught on the spot, he was later arrested by fraud.

Emperor Zhu Di killed Chen Zuyi, but he did not embarrass the people of Ceylon, and rewarded them with food and clothing, only asking them to re-elect a virtuous person as the king. The captives all recommended the evil general Naina, so Zhu Di made the evil general Naina the king and repatriated all the captives. The handling of this matter made the overseas Zhubo admire Zhu Di more and more, and there was an endless stream of envoys who came to pay tribute.

Wang Hou heard this story for the first time, and wanted to clap his hands and applaud, but his hands were fixed by the splint and could not be closed, so he patted the bed board and shouted: "The general army is really a great hero, he actually captured their capital with 2,000 people, and captured 50,000 people, which is really amazing!" Zheng He had no smug look on his face, and said with a wry smile: "In the crisis, I had no choice but to attack his capital, he brought all the soldiers out, and the capital was an empty city." Actually, I didn't want to do that much, but Are's reputation was too bad that he was captured. ”

Everyone knew that Zheng He was modest, and under the circumstances at that time, it would take a lot of wisdom and insight to avoid his edge and choose the opportunity to act. Zheng He said with a smile: "Let's get down to business, now the king of Ceylon gets along well with us, and from here, we can reach Ceylon for twelve days and nights." I had hoped that the general would accompany me on a trip to Punggara, but your wounds still need to be well healed, so you should go directly to Ceylon, and when I arrive at Punggara, I will shorten the schedule from one month to three days, so that we can meet in Ceylon in one month or forty days at the slowest. ”

After everyone discussed, they felt that this arrangement was good, and they immediately decided on it. Zheng He's eyes suddenly showed a desolate look, and he sighed softly: "I don't know what happened to him over there?" ......" Everyone didn't know what he remembered, Wang Hou was about to ask, and it happened that Liu Hanyan and Zhou Qingzhu came in with a food box.

Zheng He came back to his senses, got up to say goodbye, walked to the door, turned to Wang Hou and smiled: "General Wang, when you get there, you will find that the men and women there are naked, you are a talent, be careful not to be snatched away by others, hahaha......" laughed and went out.

Liu Hanyan didn't know what everyone was talking about, and after Zheng He left, he asked, "What does the chief soldier mean when he says that men and women are shirtless?" Zhuang Zhaoxue said with a smile: "The chief soldier asked you to take a good look at your nerd, don't let people rob you." ”

"Why, the assassin hasn't been caught yet, is the queen going to rob him?" Zhou Qingzhu's eyes widened, revealing a look of surprise, which made everyone laugh out loud.

In the following days, Chen Xiong really did not show any more movement, and it seemed that he had really escaped from Sumatra. Prince Hani followed Zheng He's advice and exiled the uncle and the eldest prince to an isolated island, and gradually straightened out the government, and the order of the Sumatra kingdom returned to order. Wang Hou later visited Wang Hou, and remembered what he said earlier about marrying him, and couldn't help but feel a little unnatural, but fortunately, everyone pretended not to know about it, and the atmosphere was not embarrassing.

Desperate to help a few people around Wang Hou every day, Jin Minhui saw that Wang Hou's original shoes were worn, so he bought brown linen to weave sandals, Wang Hou saw it, remembered to put the green stone in it, so she asked her to leave a gap when weaving, a few people didn't know that there were words on the back of the green stone mat, Wang Hou never said the past, they all made fun of him for being poor and exquisite, and the sandals still had insoles? However, Jin Minhui still made a double bottom, and the green stone mat was placed in the middle, and it was difficult to find it if you didn't look closely, while Liu Hanyan, Zhou Qingzhu, and Li Zhixian were watching her skillful movements on the side, and laughed a few words from time to time.

Fifteen days passed in a blink of an eye, Wang Hou had already removed the splint, and after the old lady examined it, he praised: "As the saying goes, it takes a hundred days to break the muscles and bones, and this hero was so seriously injured that it only took a month to heal, which really opened the eyes of the old man." "Imperial Doctor, from beginning to end, you can still listen to this sentence." Liu Hanyan didn't have a good impression of him, but after listening to Abu's translation, he was happy and took out a tael of silver and rewarded him. The old lady was afraid of her, where did she dare to accept it, she waved her hand again and again, but she was forced into her hand.

Early in the morning of the 20th of July, the weather was unusually fine, and an army of more than 1,000 men left the palace and headed for the harbor, where King Hani personally saw him off. Wang Hou had not ridden a horse for nearly a month, and at this time he sat on the horse, marching in the middle of the team, feeling the dantian that was still full of energy, and couldn't help but bow his head in frustration, without any sense of spirit.

Liu Hanyan walked side by side with him, and asked in a low voice, "Nerd, didn't you see anyone coming to see you?" Wang Hou knew that she was talking about the queen, so he deliberately looked back and nodded: "Yan'er still understands me." Liu Hanyan took a sip fiercely: "Then you can stay here." ”

Wang Hou lowered his voice: "Then how can it be done, I heard that there are men and women in Ceylon or something, and they must go to see the world." Liu Han was so angry that he raised his whip and was about to fight, seeing his sad face, he couldn't do it, and sighed: "I really admire you......"

As he was talking, Abu rushed up from behind, holding a gift box in both hands, and said to Wang Hou: "General Wang, this is a little bit of heart that the queen wants me to transfer, please smile." Wang Hou was stunned, he really said that Cao Cao Cao arrived, took the gift box, opened it and looked, but it was four ancient red cups, the diameter of the cup was about three inches, the height was about two inches, the cup wall was thick, slightly jade luster, and several black textures could be seen.

"On that day in Basan Mountain, the general killed and wounded a lot of rhinos, and then we sawed off their horns and asked the palace technicians to make wine cups, such cups, the whole horn can be made into one, which is very precious. Drinking alcohol can not only increase the aroma of wine, but also cool and detoxify, so the queen instructed me that you go to Western countries, the four seasons are like summer, and it is good to bring this cup to drink and drink. Abu approached Wang Hou and lowered his voice, "The queen asked me to tell the general only that you are accompanied by beautiful women, and this cup of drinking has another aphrodisiac effect." ”

Wang Hou's hand shook, the gift box almost fell off, and he hurriedly closed the lid: "Thank you for the queen's concern." Thinking of the situation that the rhinoceros herd trampled on the ground and shook the mountains that day, he was still a little afraid, and said to himself, "No wonder the rhinoceros wants to extinguish the fire when it sees it, it turns out that it is born to dispel fire." ”

The group got on the treasure ship and entered the long-lost room, Zhou Qingzhu shouted: "Wow! Zizhu has grown so tall, Brother Wang, come and see. "It turns out that the purple bamboo bonsai has always been placed here, and the Liu Sect Master has come to water it regularly, and now it has grown to more than one person tall, and the big pot has been replaced. Wang Hou patted Zhou Qingzhu's head and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a month, Zizhu is as tall as Azhu." ”

Liu Hanyan stretched out his hand to pick up the prince who jumped over, and pouted on the side: "Sister Azhu, you'd better stay away from this person, he doesn't know what to pretend to be in his heart now." The prince stared at the big round eyes, looked at everyone with bone, and suddenly jumped down from Liu Hanyan's hand, jumped into Wang Hou's arms, and sniffed.

Zhuang Zhaoxue said: "Hey, the prince is really a ghost elf, the prince has taken the Night Pearl, and he knows it?" But I heard Liu Hanyan snort: "The prince is not a good thing, what are you staring at and sniffing?" ”

Wang Hou smiled and said, "Prince, the treasure ship is about to open, I'll take you up to have a look." The group boarded the main deck, and Wang Hou had no trouble going up the stairs, but at this time he was out of breath, and his heart was even more anxious, and he didn't know when his internal strength would recover. Without internal force, the "four forms of communication" cannot be exerted; Without internal force, the greenstone mat under your feet does not work at all.

Li Zhixian saw it, handed over a handkerchief, Wang Hou took it and wiped the sweat on his forehead, the sea breeze blew, watching the fleet leave the harbor in turn, and pounced on the sea majestically, and his mood gradually brightened. Li Zhixian pointed to the distance: "Brother Wang, look at that group of seagulls, like you often say when you were a child, when the wind blows, only the white stork can fly against the wind?" ”

Wang Hou remembered that when he was a child, the third uncle took himself and Zhu Ziping to climb to the mountain behind the village to pick locust flowers, and then pointed to the sparkling lake and said to himself, "The little white stork can take off in just two months from birth, and they are the strong ones on this lake...... The third uncle hopes that you will be diligent in your studies, train your body, and take off as soon as possible like this white stork, with a more beautiful scenery ahead. I couldn't help but feel good, and opened my arms and chanted loudly: "I look at the map of the sky, and the world can be small; Falling into the sea, floating on several islands......"

Seeing his happy appearance, Liu Hanyan and the others also smiled, but Li Zhixian's eyes showed a trace of worry when he looked into the distance: Chen Xiong is not removed, the danger is still there, and Brother Wang has lost his martial arts again, so I don't know what kind of difficulties he will encounter.
