Chapter 3 The Prince of the Palm Fan

He Xi returned to his cabin and immediately began to write the memo.

For the Ming national strength, it is not a problem to send a few expeditions. But He Xi felt that it was better to send three.

The first group traveled north along the Japanese archipelago, through the Bering Strait, to the Americas. This one doesn't need to be too hard. Just have a foothold in North America and you can come back.

The second branch, descending to the South Sea, traveled along the islands of the Pacific Ocean to the Americas. He Xi remembered that there was an ocean current here. But what kind of currents are there? It's up to them to find out. After arriving in North America, it depends. If conditions permit, it should continue to move around South America and towards Africa. Returning from the West.

Well, although Westerners feel that they are important and are the center of the world. But He Xi felt that there was no need to increase the burden on the expedition team now. You can't go to the West.

The third route was the original Western course, from Malacca to the west, all the way to Europe, and then from Europe around South America and back to China. This is the farthest shipping lane, but the first half of the passage is a known shipping lane. The problem is in the second half. Of course, if you look at it chronologically, when he returns home, he should be able to encounter the traces left by the first two expeditions.

He Xiwen didn't add points. Finish writing the recital. He was very happy in his heart, and said secretly: "This is the first step of the Ming Dynasty and the first step of the Great Voyage." This time, the Ming Dynasty will definitely not lag behind in the Age of Discovery. ”

Immediately with a little polishing, it was sent to Nanjing.

At this time, there was a "bang" and the door was pushed open.

He Xi was startled, looked up, and saw that Princess Anqing's face was full of dark clouds. sat on the edge of the bed.

He Xi hurriedly went up and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Princess Anqing said, "What else? King Jingjiang. I think they're all my own relatives. I went to visit, who knows, he actually gave me a look and scolded me severely. I'm. ”

Seeing this, He Xi immediately frowned.

He Xi frowned, first, it was for Princess Anqing, he and Princess Anqing had a deep relationship with him, and he had always been very fond of Princess Anqing. Don't dare to point a finger, where can she be wronged.

Second, it is the attitude of King Jingjiang.

King Jingjiang's feudalism in Taiwan was experimental in nature.

In fact, the vassal kings of the Ming Dynasty may not really want to stay away from the prosperous places of the Central Plains, but they have conquered their own world with one hand and one foot. Therefore, if King Jingjiang does not do this one thing well, many other things will not be easy to do.

If King Jingjiang does not cooperate, this matter will be more difficult.

He Xi secretly said in his heart: "No matter what the reason, I will meet King Jingjiang for a while." ”

Therefore, He Xi appeased Princess Anqing. Princess Anqing herself does not hold grudges. Although the anger passed for a while. It's just that He Xi is a grudge.

Princess Anqing was appeased.

He Xi called Wang Qianli up. Go see King Jingjiang immediately.

The cabin of Zhu Shouqian, the king of Jingjiang, was no smaller than He Xi. In terms of life enjoyment, it has always been the first-class treatment in the world, but Zhu Shouqian was locked in the cabin and was not allowed to come out. Because Zhu Shouqian's sinful body has not changed.

Of course, He Xi has a holy decree in his hand, that is, to pardon Zhu Shouqian.

It's just that when it is announced, it is He Xi's freedom.

This was allowed by Zhu Yuanzhang.

He Xi took this king Qianli and pushed the door in.

saw Zhu Shouqian, who was heavy in alcohol.

Zhu Shouqian is now in his twenties, older than He Xi. It's almost thirty. Speaking of which, Zhu Wenzheng was imprisoned and died twenty years ago. Zhu Shouqian looks dignified, but it seems that because of his long-term unhealthy diet, his whole person is a little thin, with prominent cheekbones on his body and shadows under his eyes, giving people a mean feeling.

Zhu Shouqian didn't look up at all, who was coming. Instead, he held up the bottle and said, "Get out of here." ”

He Xi said: "King Jingjiang, do you know what I am? ”

Only then did Zhu Shouqian look up at He Xi, and said lightly: "Who do I care who you are?" ”

He Xi said: "I am Princess Anqing's concubine. ”

"Hmm." Zhu Shouqian said: "Can you get out?" ”

He Xi found that Zhu Shouqian couldn't communicate at all, so he waved his hand and said, "Sober up King Jingjiang." ”

Wang Qianli said: "Yes." He hesitated slightly, but still strode forward and poured a bucket of water on the head of King Jingjiang.

Although it is not a cold winter wax moon now, it is also a cold spring. A bucket of water went down, which suddenly made Zhu Shouqian feel excited. Zhu Shouqian is like an angry beast. picked up the wine bottle and smashed it at He Xi.

He Xi's eyes were quick, and his figure flashed, so he dodged. I only heard the sound of "bump" behind me, and countless porcelain fragments flew around. Immediately, Zhu Shouqian's whole body pounced, and a punch was about to smash into He Xi's face.

Wang Qianli was taken aback and grabbed Zhu Shouqian.

Wang Qianli is now the head of the guard of the Horse Mansion, and He Xi asked him to fight the vassal king, but he actually didn't dare. After all, he is only a thousand households from Luan Yiwei, and he is considered an official, but in front of these vassal kings, he is nothing at all.

But in defending He Xi, he didn't dare to slack off. Then it was the vassal king who attacked He Xi, and he didn't dare to hesitate.

In just one moment, Zhu Shouqian was pressed on the table by Wang Qianli.

Zhu Shouqian had already been hollowed out by wine, even if he was not hollowed out by wine, he might not be Wang Qianli's opponent.

It's just that Zhu Shouqian was pressed on the table with his backhand, the whole person was very unconvinced, incompetent and furious, yelling, and the whole person rubbed repeatedly on the table, desperately trying hard, but he couldn't get up. shouted: "Lone wants to kill your whole family, attack the clan vassal king, and Lone wants the lives of your nine clans." ”

Seeing this, He Xi went up and slapped Zhu Shouqian.

The sound of "pop" is crisp and pleasant.

Zhu Shouqian was quiet all of a sudden. His eyes widened, and he almost poured out the beads of his eyes, staring at He Xi. In his life, he probably has never been slapped in the face. He looked at He Xi deadly, and suddenly said, "Ah-------hhhh

A "snap" was another slap. interrupted Zhu Shouqian's screaming.

Zhu Shouqian was even more angry and said, "You -----"

"Pop" again, He Xi was expressionless, and rubbed his hands slightly. He gave it his all with every blow. The palms of his hands were red.

Zhu Shouqian gasped, as if he was an angry bull, but the cow was suppressed and couldn't move, and said, "Who are you?" ”

"Smack." Another slap in the face. He Xi didn't answer at all.

Zhu Shouqian said: "What do you want to do? ”

"Smack" give it again.

Zhu Shouqian stopped talking. It's just hateful eyes, staring at He Xi deadly.

He Xi seemed to be a smooth hand, "snapped", and continued to give a slap, and then wiped his hands with a handkerchief. said: "Is this good? ”

"I want you dead." Zhu Shouqian said.

He Xi said: "I know. ”

"I'm going to tear you to pieces." Zhu Shouqian said.

He Xi said: "I know. However, what I just did didn't make you understand your situation? You're just a prisoner, so why kill me? ”

Zhu Shouqian said; "Because I am the king of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang owes my family because of him."

He Xi looked at him with a smile and said, "Have you ever thought that today's situation is acquiesced by His Majesty. Some people hate it, and they can't refuse to give what they shouldn't want. If you don't give it, it's your fault. I am not satisfied with how much compensation is given. ”

"You don't understand." Zhu Shouqian said: "It was he who personally admitted that if he kept Nanchang, he made my father the prince, and Lone is the orthodoxy of the Ming Dynasty." ”

He Xi nodded and said, "I understand, if there is an account, no matter how you can't pay it off, there is only one way, you can pay it back." Let the chattering go to death. He Xi's face was gloomy, and he reached out and gently patted Zhu Shouqian's face.

Zhu Shouqian's face was already swollen. But at this moment, there was a hint of panic in his eyes.

If He Xi said this directly, Zhu Shouqian would not believe it. But at this moment, He Xi gave so many slaps mercilessly. He had long broken his psychological defenses, and in his opinion, no one dared to do anything to him.

But He Xi dared, and did it so boldly. There must be a reason behind this.

Zhu Shouqian couldn't help but think: "Could it be that Zhu Yuanzhang wants me to die?" ”
