Chapter 372: A Wedding Banquet at Sea
[Today's 20th update, 12th update]
Because of the experience of crossing the Western Ocean before, the fleet did not encounter accidents at sea. Twenty-two days later, the fleet arrived in Ceylon, rested for the day, and then rushed to Sumatra. Wang Hou wanted to go to Foguang Temple to visit the holy monks, but the time was too tight to do so, so he had to stand on the main deck of the "Tian Yuan" and take a deep look towards the direction of the Holy Foot Mountain.
Fifteen days later, the fleet arrived at Sumatra, and King Hani strongly invited Zheng He to stay in the palace, but Zheng He refused to delay, completed the supply of food and fresh water, and set off in a hurry the next day. King Hani watched the fleet open the harbor and stopped for a long time, if it were not for the help of Wang Hou and Zheng He, he would not only not be able to ascend the throne, but also might lose his life.
Thirteen days later, on the third day of the third month of March, the fleet arrived in Manraka, where it had to stay for five days because it had stored a lot of goods and needed to be moved to the ship. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the five members of the Desperate Gang went to Yuwan with Liu Zhaohui and Zhuang Zhaoxue, but saw that the door of Xiaosha's house was closed, and after inquiring, they learned that the family had returned to China.
Everyone remembered that when Xiao Sha Daddy took everyone to a restaurant not far from the store to eat, Xiao Sha asked Daddy when he would go back, and her Daddy sighed to everyone, "I'm not afraid of the heroes and jokes, although the conditions here are much better than my hometown, I always think about my hometown." There is also a seventy-year-old lady at home, and she is reluctant to come, so far away, it takes more than three months to make a round trip...... Xiaosha, as soon as next autumn passes, we will go back and spend the Spring Festival in our hometown. ”
It seems that their family will return to their hometown in Guizhou this year. Wang Hou pointed to Yuwan: "I'm in a hurry these days, and I don't have time to call out the little beauty, let's try it now?" Several people applauded in unison.
Several people heard Wang Hou say that the little beauty had appeared in Guli and helped save the Mei brothers, Liu Hanyan saw Li Zhixian take out a bamboo whistle, and also took out one: "When we were tied up with wooden bones, we called the little fat man and the little beauty, but they never came out, I don't know where the little fat man died, I'll try again." ”
Tossing on the beach for a long time, how could there be any movement, Wang Hou crushed the homemade bamboo whistle, and sighed: "Things are people, and everything is resting, and tears flow first...... I didn't expect that after less than a year of separation, the little beauty and the little fat man ignored us, 'all actions are impermanent, all laws have no self, nirvana is silent, and there are leaks and suffering', just let them be free in the sea, if there is fate, they will also appear without our calling. ”
A few people didn't know what he was talking about, and even Li Zhixian couldn't hear the truth of what he said, and secretly thought: I was separated from him for only four months, and I thought I knew him very well, but now why do you feel like God is chattering? Could it be because of Tiesaro? Li Zhixian really didn't guess wrong, in Guli, when Tiesaro broke up with Wang Hou, he said, "Amitabha! All Dharma causes are born and extinguished, impermanence is selfless, birth and death are continuous, why should we die of old age and sorrow? Lao can meet the donor several times, and it can be regarded as fate...... and Wang Hou was influenced by him to give birth to the emotion just now.
On the 8th day of the 3rd month, the fleet continued its journey and after 12 days, it arrived at Champa on 20 March. Previously, Zheng He agreed with the South China Sea that after completing the Xinghai map at sea this time, the South China Sea Princesses would go to Daming with Zheng He, live by the sea, and no longer pay attention to mundane things. Nanhai Gong proposed to go to the old mansion to have a look, and Wang Hou accompanied him.
Since returning from Mugudu, Wang Hou was summoned by Zheng He to the "Tian Yuan" and followed Nanhai Gong to learn navigation knowledge. The Nanhai Gong unreservedly explained to Wang Hou the techniques of sea navigation, from astronomy to hydrology, to the use of various tools and tools, and the expression of various signals. Wang Hou learned quite seriously, and the two deepened their relationship in the process of teaching and learning.
Pushing open the iron gate and entering the courtyard of the old house, his eyes were full of dilapidated scenes, Nanhai Gong remembered that night he was kidnapped by the Flying Heaven Sect, and five courtyard warriors were killed, and once again shed old tears, he got along with the five courtyard warriors day and night, treating them like relatives, but because he was killed.
Wang Hou knew the reason and comforted: "Don't be sad when the Duke of Nanhai is sad, the Flying Heaven Sect Master has already been punished, and Chen Xiong, as the culprit, has also been buried in the sea...... The samurai must have been able to rest in peace. Nanhai Gong wiped a handful of tears and stayed in the room for a long time and didn't want to come out.
The next day, the fleet set off from Champong, and seeing that it would only take ten days to reach Changle in Fuzhou, Zheng He's heart gradually became more steady, and the expression on his face eased a lot. Wang Hou saw it in his eyes and secretly thought: Why not take this opportunity to propose to Zheng Zongbing to officiate the wedding for Mo Gong and the Lily Fairy, Liu Zhaohui and Zhuang Zhaoxue?
Zheng He listened to Wang Hou's thoughts and clapped his hands: "These days, I also feel too dull, and a wedding can also bring joy to the fleet, good!" …… Why didn't General Wang get married together? Wang Hou hurriedly said: "Let's get married first, I'm not in a hurry, and no one wants to marry me." ”
Zheng He laughed: "I really responded to that sentence, 'Why does a big husband have no wife?'" "I think Miss Liu and Miss Zhou under General Wang are good, do you want me to help you go and propose to Sect Master Liu?" Because Li Zhixian and Jin Minhui were disguised as women, Zheng He didn't expect them.
"I'm not in a hurry, I'm really not in a hurry!" Wang Hou shook his hands continuously, Zheng He laughed again, thought for a while, and said: "General Wang, it's up to you, but if you marry them in the future, don't forget to invite me to a glass of wine." Hahaha...... Today is March 23, and I think tomorrow will be an auspicious day. ”
The two agreed to hold a wedding banquet on the "Tian Yuan" tomorrow, Zheng He immediately called Tang Jing and Li Xing, and asked them to split up, Tang Jing was responsible for notifying which people to invite to the "Tian Yuan" tomorrow, and Li Xing was responsible for arranging the banquet. Seeing that the arrangements were in place, Wang Hou immediately stood on the stern and spread the news loudly, and the flotilla soon spread the good news.
On the "Tianzhu", Liu Hanyan and a few people were playing mahjong, and when they heard Wang Hou's words, how could they still have the heart to play cards, and they caught Liu Zhaohui and Zhuang Zhaoxue, and they were clamoring to eat candy.
Liu Zhaohui looked at Zhuang Zhaoxue and just grinned. Zhuang Zhaoxue's face was flushed, and she said angrily: "This prince Wang, what nonsense, who is going to get married?" I'm afraid that others won't know and shout. Li Zhixian quipped: "Yo, someone has received all the congratulatory gifts, and they still want to play tricks?" …… Don't you listen to what the gang leader just said, Zheng Zongbing wants to preside over the marriage in person, and see who dares to lie down. ”
On the treasure ship of the "Heavenly Gate", Mo Gong and Fairy Lily were discussing the matter of settling accounts with the Alpine Snow Clan, and when they heard Wang Hou's voice, the two of them were stunned. Mo Gong asked, "Fairy, it seems that the Wang gang leader is talking, did he mean you and me?" The lily fairy was also a little surprised, and said coquettishly: "This monster, why didn't you tell me in advance, just screaming there?" See if I don't feed him a ten-flavor heavenly incense needle! ”
As he spoke, the room slammed open, and the other six people in Wudang all rushed in. The boss Song Tian had a gloomy face and said indifferently: "Do you still treat me as a senior brother?" You didn't even tell me about such a big thing beforehand? The sixth Yin Cheng also had a straight face: "Senior brother, I have always regarded you as your best friend, but I didn't expect you to do such a thing!" ”
Mo Gong's "I, I ......" was speechless for a long time, and he didn't know how to justify, and the Lily Fairy was stunned: Could it be that they object to me being with Mo Gong? Suddenly, I heard the old five Zhang Hua laugh and said: "Senior brother, sixth junior brother, don't make fun of the seventh junior brother, you see, the fairy is so frightened that his face has changed." ”
The six of Wudang laughed, and after a while, Song Tiandao: "Seventh junior brother, you don't want me, me, me, if it weren't for Zheng Zongbing's marriage, I'm afraid that the fairy would not want to marry you." ”
The lily fairy blushed and was about to escape, but was stopped by Yin Cheng reaching out, stuffing her with a red envelope, and grinning: "Brother and daughter-in-law, this is the bride price given to you by our six senior brothers, we are about to become a family, why don't you call one by one?" The lily fairy took the red envelope, only shouted "senior brother" at Song Tian, and was so ashamed that he pushed Yin Cheng away and escaped.
didn't run a few steps, bumped into a person head-on, the lily fairy was about to get angry, seeing that it was Wang Hou, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Helper, why are you here?" "What are the fairies running?" I was looking for you and Mo Qixia. Wang Hou held a gift box in his hand, and the lily fairy walked back to the room with him. Everyone laughed, Mo Gong opened the gift box, it turned out to be four ancient red rhinoceros horn cups, the diameter of the cup is about three inches, the height is about two inches, the cup wall is thick, slightly jade luster, I know that it is very valuable, even say thank you.
"Mo Qixia, don't be polite, this cup was still given by Queen Sumatra, and it has not been useful when it is hidden by her side, so it is just given to Qixia and the fairy as a gift." After a pause, Wang Hou said again, "That day, when the queen ordered someone to send it, she said that this cup can not only increase the aroma of wine, but also cool and detoxify, and, moreover, ...... He also said that accompanied by beautiful women around him, this cup of drinking has another aphrodisiac effect. ”
The lily fairy snorted, turned and fled the room again. There was a burst of laughter behind him, and I don't know how they were doing it.
The next day, the weather was unusually sunny, on the main deck of the fourth floor of the "Tian Yuan" treasure ship, more than 50 tables of banquets were set up, the time had just arrived, the drums were singing, Zhuang Zhaoxue and the lily fairy were covered with red hijabs, and were respectively led out of the bow by Liu Zhaohui and Mo Gong, Liu Hanyan and others stood on both sides of the red carpet, watching the four people coming, laughing and throwing ribbons.
Under the auspices of Zheng He, after the four of them worshiped heaven and earth, Liu Zhaohui and Mo Gong respectively unveiled the hijab of Zhuang Zhaoxue and the Lily Fairy, and sat down at the first table. Wang Hou, Hou Xian, and the other six people from Wudang sat at the second table, while Liu Hanyan and the others sat in the distance with other guests.
There are four cold dishes, ten hot dishes, and two soups on the table, a total of 16 dishes, and the two couples toast together at the table after three rounds of wine, and the atmosphere is even more festive and warm.
After the feast, there were already warships waiting to send the newlyweds and guests back to their respective ships. Wang Hou still wanted to stay on the Tianyuan, quietly pulled Liu Hanyan aside, and whispered: "Yan'er, you won't get seasick tonight, right?" Liu Hanyan saw that he was smiling obscenely, and knew that it was not a good word, so he still asked curiously: "How can you get seasick?" ”
Wang Hou smiled: "Because, because...... Brother Liu and Miss Zhuang, they tossed so much, hey, hey, they still don't let go......"
