"Your Majesty, our family's eldest heifer has been born, and this is our family's second cow."

"Since you decreed that we will never be exempted from the price of the horses here, our family finally does not need to raise horses but cattle, which are better than horses, and can be cultivated and sold; I raised the first cow myself, and now it's the second, but I can't herd it anymore! ”

"Because the family is going to let me study, I can only let my brother let me, I wrote to ask, can you make an order to let my father and mother not send me to study, and let me herd cattle?"

"Fengyang Xiaomin greets the emperor, because you encourage practice, so that our family has changed from a homeless person to a local wealthy, operating the largest government-run paper mill in Fengyang, and the paper mill has also opened a school for the children in our workshop, as well as a medical hall, in addition to the Keju field and the horse training ground, and there is a stage."

"My brother recently fell from a horse and got timely treatment because of the new medical center, and I also took the Huai'an Mansion because of the good school in the fang, and now I am writing to you to let you know that I want you to know that I want to be your first assistant, and I will also assist you in the future, my name is Chen Wensong."

"Your Majesty, are you going to choose a concubine?"

"I have already registered my sister, she is a well-known handsome girl in our village, she is very virtuous, her name is Sun Ying, can you not let her lose the election, because I have already told her that she can survive, it is all because you decreed that Mi Zhi was exempted from forced labor, so I can support her by working, so she has decided to be willing to enter the palace to serve you for a lifetime and repay your kindness!"

"I believe there is no more faithful and obedient than her, she is very good at taking care of people!"

……

Zhu Yijun didn't just read the letter, sometimes he would let the eunuch read the letter on the side, and he only needed to listen.

At this time, when the eunuch Tian Wen read a few letters, Zhu Yijun felt more and more warm in his heart, and suddenly felt that all these years had not been in vain, and he also found that it was really a great sense of accomplishment to make the people's lives better and be grateful by the people.

Let's be honest.

Zhu Yijun is no longer as embarrassed as his life in later generations, and now he has no shortage of beauty, gold, silver and jewelry, and even more delicious food.

In short, the pleasure of material desires has made him not fresh.

And this kind of spiritual pleasure makes him feel very fresh, and it also keeps him from suddenly feeling that life is boring in the moment of sage.

In the splendid palace, Zhu Yijun sat on the couch and quietly listened to the eunuch Tian Yi reading these letters, as if listening to Sanskrit.

With a wisp of flowers wafting from the window from under the moon, Zhu Yijun was even more refreshed, and he felt that tonight's night was really beautiful.

Tian Yi also felt honored when he read the letter.

Although his mouth was dry when he read the letter now, his expression was relaxed and pleasant.

Sometimes, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and when he glanced at Zhu Yijun, there was more reverence in his eyes.

He had to admit that the emperor he is serving now is indeed very popular with the people, although he has lost his roots in descendants, but he has not entered the palace in vain, at least he is serving a holy monarch who has won the hearts of the people.

Especially when reading a letter from Mizhi County, Tian Yi couldn't help but laugh, secretly wrote down the name Sun Ying carefully in his heart, and also glanced at Zhu Yijun.

After he saw that Zhu Yijun also raised his head and listened attentively at this time, he made up his mind even more confident that he wanted the emperor to have some relationship with this virtuous girl named Sun Ying.

While thinking like this, Tian Yi continued to read the letter.

"Slave Li Jinzhong kowtows to the emperor!"

And when Tian Yi just read a letter next, Zhu Yijun looked up.

"Li Jinzhong?"

Zhu Yijun set off a wave in his heart.

Tian Yi also looked at it because of this.

Zhu Yijun instructed at this time: "Keep reading!" ”

"Yes!"

Tian Yi continued to read.

"The slave maid is a native of Suning, Hebei, and originally planned to be a slave and maid of the emperor by castration, because the slave and maid really can't live, the family is very poor, there is not enough food and clothing, I want to be a monk and I can't stand the lightness, I want to be a slave, and I feel that if a person like me wants to be a slave, how can I have the emperor to be a slave to live this life in vain;"

"But the emperor doesn't accept self-castrated people now, and first issued an order to exempt forage silver and then issued an order to exempt from servitude, although the slave maid has no land or house, but he doesn't have to pay forage silver and servitude Ding Yin, and he can support himself by doing odd jobs casually, and he doesn't want to enter the palace again, mainly because he is afraid of pain!"

"But the slave and maid have already regarded the emperor as the master of the slave in their hearts, and they have already made themselves your slaves!"

"Because who made you so good, so that the slave and maid can finally eat enough, can live like a person, don't look at the face of the wealthy to survive, so the slave and maid are willing to recognize you as the master, and not recognize other masters as the master;"

"But the slave and the maid are indeed not a peaceful person, not to mention, since the slave and the maid have decided to be your slave and maid, they will naturally not only do the work of hard work, the slave and the maid have signed up to go to Luzon to mine, in response to the call of the emperor to let the Han people develop Luzon."

"Please rest assured, the slave and maid will be able to develop Luzon very well, starting with the miners, becoming the head of the mine step by step, becoming bigger and stronger, and will let Luzon dig out a few more gold mountains in the future."

"In addition, the slave and maid also called on the five hundred pranky people in the township to settle down and go with the slave and maid, and they are all willing to go, in the future, our five hundred pimpies will definitely make a career for the emperor in Luzon, the emperor, just watch it!"

"I am writing such a long letter to you now, just to tell you that the first time I saw the sea, I felt that the sea was too big, and people were a little unsettled, so I don't tell you, I'm sorry for the name given to the slave by the local teacher, and I'm sorry for the slave and the maid who wants to be loyal to you."

After Li Jinzhong's letter was read by Tian Yi, Zhu Yijun suddenly said: "That's all for today." ”

Tian Yi said yes.

Then, Zhu Yijun instructed: "In my name, I will send a reply to this Li Jinzhong, telling him that I read his letter, and then I was very moved after reading it, and I also encouraged him and his five hundred fellow villagers to go to sea to mine and dig gold, in my eyes, they are not five hundred splashes, but five hundred warriors!" ”

"I believe that they can successfully make a career in Luzon, but I hope that he will not forget that he is a descendant of China, a son of the Ming Dynasty, and do not forget the soul of our Chinese nation.

"In addition, tell him to report to me on the immigration and development situation in Luzon at any time through the secret box, and be my eyes in Luzon."

Tian Yi hurriedly said yes after hearing this.

……

The southeast sea area of Daming.

Boom!

With a fierce typhoon blowing, a Ming galleon was directly tilted by 45 degrees on the spot.

There was also the sound of tables and chairs violently colliding against the hull of the ship.

Li Jinzhong, who lived in the third-class cabin of the ship, also hit his head the hull at this time, and then woke up.

Today's official ship transportation in the Ming Dynasty generally divides the cabins into three levels, the first class is mainly occupied by bureaucrats, the second class is occupied by gentry and wealthy families, and the third class is occupied by civilians.

And Li Jinzhong, as a civilian, naturally lived in the third class.

When Li Jinzhong was woken up, most of his 500 fellow villagers were also woken up at this time, and some even began to vomit directly.

Li Jinzhong couldn't help but say at this time: "Why is there a demon wind again?" ”

"Yes! This time the demon wind is even bigger, Brother Li, do you think we can go to Luzon? ”

At this time, he echoed with Wang Yongzhen, and asked Li Jinzhong quite worriedly.

Li Jinzhong said quite calmly: "Why can't you! Everybody else can go to Luzon, we can't get there. ”

As he spoke, Li Jinzhong took out a small statue of Deng Zilong wrapped in red cloth in his coat in the rickety cabin, and said to his fellow villagers with both hands:

"Get down on your knees! This is the statue I invited in the ancestral hall of General Deng, spent a full thirty taels of silver dollars, hollowed out the family to protect us to the sea, we now kneel, please the old general's heroic soul to protect us, this demon wind will stop, after all, the demon wind here is afraid of General Deng, otherwise General Deng will not be here to defeat the thief giant ship! ”

"Get down on your knees!"

Li Jinzhong then shouted again, and then knelt down with the statue of Deng Zilong in his arms, and recited the words begging Deng Zilong to protect them.

His fellow villagers also knelt down and read along.

After about half an hour, it was really calm!

The clouds dispersed and the rain stopped.

Golden light began to shine through the clouds on the surface of the sea.

The cabin suddenly turned from dark to bright.

"It's really calm."

Wang Yongzhen said happily first.

Li Jinzhong rejoiced himself, and hurriedly wrapped the statue of Deng Zilong in red cloth, and then said: "Sure enough, it works!" ”

"Just like the people who go to the Wa Kingdom will worship the statue of the Gong God of the Ji Kingdom in advance, this Luzon demon wind is afraid of General Deng!"

"Later, when we arrived in Luzon, we made a fortune, and we had to build a temple for General Deng, so that we might have a peaceful life."

"Yes!"

Others responded.

Next.

The big ship that Li Jinzhong was on did not encounter any more storms and waves, and successfully arrived at Manila Bay three days later.

Li Jinzhong was joined by other Han Chinese from the mainland.

These Han Chinese all migrated here voluntarily.

This is also the first batch of Han Chinese people who migrated to Luzon with the power of the Ming Empire.

Among them, there are many elites who have taken the initiative to make meritorious contributions, that is, the so-called officials and scholars.

But no matter what the identities of these Han people are, they are all the same as Li Jinzhong, and they are all very excited at the moment.

"I was ordered to move Luzon, and I also asked Wang Shi to allow us to enter Hong Kong!"

At that time, the officials in charge of transporting Li Jinzhong and others had already come to the port in small boats and shouted.

After a while, the sentinel ships in the harbor began to get out of the way.

Li Jinzhong and others officially entered the port of Manila with the ship shortly after this.
