The conch horn was sounded, representing that the top magnates of the Ming Dynasty would abandon everything in Nanjing, hide in remote Beijing, and take root in Beijing.

The moment the treasure ship left the dock, a carriage and two horses suddenly poured out of the city gate.

A big fat man came down from the carriage, and on the steed rode a heroic young man and a slightly gloomy young man.

The fat man is His Royal Highness Zhu Gaochi, the crown prince of the Ming Dynasty, needless to say, the heroic young man is naturally Zhu Gaochu, and the youngest young man is Zhu Gaosui, who has just taken over the entire Terracotta Division of the Five Cities.

The three of them looked at the treasure ship that was gradually moving away, and their faces were different.

Zhu Gaozhi's face couldn't tell what he was thinking, and there was a hint of relief in Zhu Gaoxu's eyes.

Zhu Gaosui looked thoughtful.

After a while, Zhu Gaosui suddenly looked at Zhu Gaochu and said with a smile: "Second brother, I can't imagine that this guy Chen Kan really has the determination to give up everything." ”

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at him and said lightly: "Everyone has their own choice, since he doesn't want to wade into this muddy water, it's good to leave for a while, we must always have a witness for our discord back then." ”

Zhu Gaochi didn't say anything, just glanced at the two of them deeply.

Chen Kan on the boat naturally saw the three people who came to see him off, and in the past two years since he came to Daming, Chen Kan has never had any friends.

Perhaps he rose so fast that the old foxes above the Ming Dynasty treated him as a person of the same level.

Few people would have thought of him when dealing with him that he was not an old fox at all, just a young man in his early twenties.

In addition to the three difficult brothers and sisters who met when Chen Kan had not yet crossed over, if you really want to talk about friends, maybe Li Tong of Guozijian can be counted as half.

Zhu Zhanji, when it was a flower, Zhu Zhanji didn't know when he also ran to the deck, and was waving at the three of them.

Chen Kan gave up his hand at the three of them freely, pointed at Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhan Yan again, then turned around and put his hands behind his head and walked towards his room.

Looking at Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanyan holding hands on the deck, Zhu Gaoxu's eyes darkened for a moment, and then said indifferently: "It's okay, the grievances of the previous generation are the grievances of the previous generation, and the next generation is a brother whose blood is thicker than water after all." ”

Zhu Gaochi sat on the wheel and said lightly: "Second brother, you are in love, we are brothers, and there have never been any grievances." ”

Zhu Gaoxu frowned, turned his head to look at Zhu Gaochi, and snorted coldly: "Boss, I hope you can always be so hypocritical." ”

"According to what you say, shouldn't I hurry up and give birth to a child and leave it to Chen Kan to teach?"

As soon as Zhu Gaosui said this, he saw two pairs of angry eyes staring at him at the same time.

Zhu Gaosui was frightened by the eyes of the two of them, and said, "I know that I don't have my share in the throne, so I don't want to grab it from you." ”

"Humph!"

Zhu Gaoxu snorted coldly and took the lead in beating the horse and leaving.

Zhu Gaochi glanced at Zhu Gaosui deeply, a trace of gloom flashed imperceptibly in his eyes, and then got into the carriage without saying a word.

Seeing the two walk away, Zhu Gaosui's eyes suddenly flickered a few times, and then a sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Let's fight, let's fight, this king is waiting for the Xuanwumen incident to happen again."

Muttering to himself, Zhu Gaosui raised his head, looked at the treasure ship that had become a small point, and muttered: "Chen Kan, Chen Kan, are you the eldest grandson Wuji, or Li Shiji?" ”

......

"Looking back, the light boat has crossed the Ten Thousand Mountains!"

This is the tenth day that the treasure ship sailed into the canal, and the idle and bored Chen Kan is dancing the sword.

"Kill one person in ten steps, and don't leave a line for a thousand miles......"

While clumsily dancing the long sword in his hand, while reciting Li Taibai's masterpiece, and finally receiving a round of complimentary applause, this is Chen Kan's daily life these days.

Ten days after leaving Beijing, the treasure ship under Chen Kan's command had crossed the Huai River and officially sailed to the northern section of the canal.

This canal is different from the canal leading to Kaifeng to connect the Yellow River, which is called the Grand Canal of the Sui and Tang Dynasties in the history books of later generations, and was built by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty to connect several self-built canals from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period.

After the Tang Dynasty, due to the congestion of the Guanzhong Plain, the fertile land was greatly reduced, and the grain produced in the Guanzhong area alone was no longer enough to feed the population of Guanzhong.

The canal that Chen Kan and others are walking on now is called the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal in later generations.

It was built in the pre-Yuan period in order to gather the wealth of the south of the Yangtze River.

Yuan Dadu, that is, the north of Hongwu and the Beijing of Yongle.

This canal, in history, has undertaken the entire Ming Dynasty, from Yongle to Chongzhen for more than two hundred years, to feed the entire Shuntianfu millions of people.

At the same time, it also gave birth to trough gang interest groups that were unheard of before the Ming and Qing dynasties.

Of course, now that Chen Kan is here, there is naturally no need for the groove gang to be born.

By sea, the cost of transporting grain is low, and the grain that can be transported by sea ships is far from being comparable to the ships on the canal.

However, it is still necessary to preserve the economic artery connecting the north and the south, and it is excellent to transport people and develop it as a place of interest.

As for the Japanese who occasionally attacked the Ming Maritime Frontier, the day Zheng He's fleet went to sea would be their end.

Not to mention that Zheng He has proven the existence of the Wa Kingdom Silver Mountain.

With Zhu Di's character as Pixiu, as long as the time comes, the Wa Kingdom will become a province of the Ming Dynasty sooner or later.

All these things add up to form the driving force of Chen Kan's sword dance.

No way, Chen Kan is too happy.

The farther away he is from the Jingshi, the more likely it is that the things laid by the Jingshi will grow into towering trees.

And when he returns, or Zhu Di moves the capital, people will discover the fact that Chen Kan has grown into a behemoth that they can't reach.

"Brush off your clothes and hide in the famous ......"

Collect the sword, chant the poem, and do it in one go.

"Papapa~"

Warm applause rang out, Chen Kan smiled reservedly, and casually threw the long sword weighing more than ten catties into the hands of four-year-old Zhu Zhanyan.

The weight of a sword pressed down, instantly making Zhu Zhan stumble under his feet.

No one dared not to give Chen Kan face, even if his sword dance was no different from.

This is the added value that a person's status can bring to him.

Zhu Yuelan smiled and took a towel to wipe the fine beads of sweat from Chen Kan's forehead: "Husband has only been a few moments, and he really can't play it without any means, it is really like a dragon." ”

"It's okay, take it!"

Chen Kan volleyed in the air, and Zhu Yuelan suddenly stopped.

Chen Kan snatched the towel from her hand and said with a smile: "This sycophant, it has to be photographed by outsiders, no matter how good it is said by my family, I have a feeling of going against my heart when I hear it." ”

After speaking, Chen Kan looked at Zhu Zhanji, who had not applauded after he finished dancing the sword, and grinned: "His Royal Highness, what do you say?" ”

Being watched by Chen Kan's malicious gaze, Zhu Zhanji couldn't help but feel a thrill all over his body, and he turned around and wanted to run.

But how could Chen Kan let him get his wish, as long as he reached out slightly and grabbed his collar, he had nowhere to escape.

"Your lesson today is to find a hundred words of praise for me, and if you don't do it, you know the consequences."

The cheap tone combined with Chen Kan's malicious smile suddenly made Zhu Zhanji's face collapse.

Crying and mournful, he said, "The second junior brother and the younger brother didn't applaud just now." ”

Chen Kan shrugged indifferently: "Xiao Yan brought me a sword, as for the hour, I was so tired from dancing with a sword, he wanted to beat my legs." ”

"Gollum."

Zhu Zhanji swallowed his saliva with difficulty, turned around and flattered: "Teacher, in fact, the student can rub your shoulders for you." ”

"Alright then!"

Chen Kan reluctantly agreed to Zhu Zhanji's request.

He threw the towel to a passing maid, went to a chaise longue under a large umbrella and lay down, and took a pot of rice wine and poured a big sip.

looked at Zhu Zhanji, who had a flattering face, and scolded: "What are you waiting for? ”

Forced by Chen Kan's obscenity, Hua Shi and Zhu Zhanji had no choice but to beat their legs and massage Chen Kan with their shoulders.

As for the little Zhu Zhanyan, he didn't dare to leave Chen Kan's sight at all, so he could only stand under the sun with two long swords as high as him, and after a while, there were fine beads of sweat on his forehead.

But at this time, even Chang Ning, who loves them the most on weekdays, will not come up to care about them.

Because these days, everyone has become accustomed to Chen Kan's peculiar education model.

After drinking a pot of rice wine, the heat on my body disappeared.

Chen Kan closed his eyes and began to recite: "The former Zhou Gong asked Shang Gaori: 'I heard that the doctor is good at counting. May I ask the ancients to set up the Zhou Tian calendar, the husband and the sky can not rise in steps, and the size and degree can not be obtained, may I ask the number of An? ”

Zhu Zhanji immediately responded: "Shang Gao said: 'The law of numbers comes from the circle, the circle comes from the square, the square comes from the moment, and the moment comes from the ninety-nine eighty-one. ’”

Chen Kan nodded, and then looked at Hua Shi, who hurriedly said: "In any right-angled triangle, the sum of the squares of the two right-angled sides must be equal to the squares of the hypotenuses. ”

After speaking, the three of them looked at Zhu Zhanyan who was holding a long sword.

Zhu Zhanyan's little face showed a touch of embarrassment, and then he said with a little shame: "Teacher, senior brother, second senior brother, I forgot again." ”

Hearing this, the three of them rolled their eyes at the same time.

Chen Kan raised his hand and hooked his finger at Zhu Zhanji behind him: "Since your junior brother still can't remember the Pythagorean theorem, you will be responsible for teaching him today." ”

Zhu Zhanji's little face suddenly showed an expression of hatred for iron and steel, walked to Zhu Zhanji's side, took the long sword in his hand and hung it on the umbrella stand, took his little hand and walked towards the room.

Chen Kan said to the flower again: "For the teacher, it is estimated that your little brother may not even forget the ninety-nine song, you go and help him recall." ”

Hearing this, Hua Shi got up and saluted, "Yes, disciple will go." ”

"Go ahead!"

Chen Kan waved his hand and watched the three little children walk away, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.

After these days of teaching, he found that Zhu Zhanji and Hua Shi were obviously much smarter than Zhu Zhanji, and they could understand many of the things they talked about once they learned them.

And Zhu Zhanyan doesn't know if it's because he's too young, or if he's really not as smart as the two, and he can't learn a lot of simple knowledge.

After a while, Chen Kanmo rubbed his chin and muttered to himself, "Could it be that trick?" ”
