The eldest grandson of Emperor Ming Dynasty!

Chapter 820: Everyone wants to go to Dongsheng China

"Dongsheng Shenzhou is vast and vast, with fertile soil everywhere. We marched from north to south and it took two years but we didn't reach it."

"The high-yield crops of our Ming Dynasty, corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes, are everywhere in Dongsheng Shenzhou. However, there are no cattle, sheep, or horses. The indigenous people make a living by hunting, without education and civilization."

"It is said that there is a big country further south, but the march depends on walking, so it is difficult."

In the Fengtian Palace, Wang Tianlu carefully explained what he had learned about Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Dongsheng Divine Continent is actually not as far away as Ming Dynasty thought. After crossing the Bering Strait, it is considered to be Dongsheng Divine Continent.

Then heading south, the weather gets warmer.

Due to the cold weather, more than 3000 people of the expeditionary force died on the way, and more than [-] people successfully arrived.

They met the local indigenous people, basically in the form of tribes. Because the two sides did not understand the language, they could not communicate, but no war broke out.

The expeditionary force of more than 4 people is there. No tribe dares to provoke, and under the leadership of Lan Taiping, they will not attack the local indigenous people for no reason.

The biggest problem why Wang Tianlu was sent back was that there were no horses in America.

Not only are there no horses, there are no large animals.

If this is the case, even if they find the Weeping Tree, it will be difficult for them to bring it back.

Therefore, Wang Tianlu came back this time in the hope that Ming Dynasty could send an army there again and bring enough war horses.

Wang Tianlu also carried a map on his person.

Except for the very cold weather around the Bering Strait, the climate is actually pretty good in most areas.

It is difficult for horses to pass through the Bering Strait, but when there is still a certain distance from the Bering Strait, the ship can sail directly to Dongsheng Shenzhou.

The distance between the two seas is not as far as imagined, and it can completely transport horses.

"It seems that the high-yielding crops that Da Sun brought were probably brought over by someone who went to Dongsheng Shenzhou, and finally fell into Da Sun's hands."

After hearing Wang Tianlu's story, Zhu Yuanzhang reacted immediately.

Because in the whole world, even in the farther south and west, crops such as corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes have not been heard of.

It seems that it only exists in Zhu Ying's hands, as if it appears out of thin air.

Now it seems that it is the product of Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Zhu Yuanzhang once listened to what the eldest grandson said about doing business. Although he didn't show anything, he actually felt in his heart that this was just an excuse for the eldest grandson, and he didn't bother to dig into it.

Unexpectedly, what Dasun said was true, and now Wang Tianlu's return has proven everything.

"Such a blessing should be reported at the residence, and the whole country will be happy."

The grandfather and grandson soon came to an agreement. According to Wang Tianlu's story, Dongsheng Shenzhou was very rich. There was no country in the north, but only some indigenous tribes.

Even the more than 4 people led by Lan Taiping are enough to overwhelm the entire north.

As for the south, it is too far away, and it would take too long to rely solely on your legs.

In addition to the fertile land, they also discovered a large number of mineral deposits there. Obviously, Dongsheng Shenzhou has great development value.

On the third day when Wang Tianlu arrived in the capital.

The capital newspaper published the news of the discovery of Dongsheng China and described the situation of Dongsheng China in detail.

These include corn, potatoes, and potatoes that are now commonplace in the Ming Dynasty, and they also come from Dongsheng Shenzhou.

"It turns out that these high-yield crops come from Dongsheng Divine Continent. His Highness Taisun really got the help of gods and deified immortals for our Ming Dynasty. Otherwise, how could he get crops thousands of miles away."

"It is written in the Di newspaper that Dongsheng Shenzhou is very vast, even bigger than our Ming Dynasty. It is full of fertile soil, and there are some uncivilized barbarians living there who eat raw hair and drink blood. These barbarians have no worries about food, so it is still like this after many years. Hey, it’s just too far away, it will take five years.”

"Have you read the Di newspaper carefully? General Lan and his friends have been there for five years. In fact, they can arrive in half a year. I heard that General Lan even had someone bring back a map."

"It's too cold in the far north. I heard that many soldiers froze to death. It's good to win over China in the east, but the road is too dangerous. I don't want to take the risk and go there."

"Who says it's not? I heard it said in the newspaper, it's really a good place."

The news of the discovery of Dongsheng Shenzhou in the Di newspaper quickly spread throughout the capital, and then spread to the entire Ming Dynasty.

People are always very curious and yearning for such novel things.

There are also many people who speculate that the indigenous people living in Dongsheng Shenzhou are probably the people who migrated there in the early days of the Central Plains.

Because of the description in the Di newspaper, they also have yellow skin and black hair, very similar to the Han people.

Previously, the Ming Dynasty was spreading the ancient mythology system. Now the Ming Dynasty's mythology system has penetrated deeply into the people. Since it was published and promoted by the imperial court, and it is said that the main compiler of the mythology system is the current His Highness Taisun, so almost most people are not familiar with it. I firmly believe this.

Many people speculate based on the mythological system that those people in Dongsheng Shenzhou should belong to the remnants of ancient times and have the same origin as the Han people.

This statement has gained great recognition and has become the current mainstream.

Zhu Ying, there is no longer any resistance to establishing a route to Dongsheng Shenzhou.

And several vassal kings seem to have smelled a new direction.

Yan Wangfu.

"Master, or we can go to Dongsheng Shenzhou. The soil there is fertile and there are no opponents. They are just uncivilized barbarians. We can go there to establish a vassal state."

"What does the mage think?"

After getting the news, Zhu Di asked Yao Guangxiao what he thought.

"good."

Yao Guangxiao confirmed this idea and said, "If the prince wants to go, he must do it as soon as possible. Dongsheng Shenzhou is located far away. If you go to Jianguo, you don't have to worry about the relationship with the court."

"The poor monk heard that the place there is very big, even as big as the Ming Dynasty. Not only does it lack horses, but it also lacks cattle and sheep. Therefore, the prince must have received strong support from the court in the past."

Yao Guangxiao also wants to go there, or in other words, many people want to go there.

After all, this is Dongsheng Divine Continent, and the name alone has great appeal.

When the news spread, Taoism in the Ming Dynasty was alarmed.

Because according to Taoism, Dongsheng China is the birthplace of immortals. Maybe you can still find some traces of immortals in Dongsheng China.

This is a huge temptation for every cultivator.

Qin Shihuang once sent people to look for the fairy mountains overseas, wasn't he referring to Dongsheng Shenzhou? Now that he has found it, who doesn't want to go there?

After receiving the news, these Taoist sects, such as Longhu Mountain, Wudang Mountain, etc., have already begun to prepare to go to the capital together to invite His Majesty to Dongsheng Shenzhou.The reason why they want to go to the capital instead of going by themselves is because they know very well that if they do not rely on the imperial court and rely solely on themselves, even if all Taoists unite, I am afraid that even if they can go to Dongsheng Shenzhou, there will be heavy casualties. Ten do not save one.

In the hands of the imperial court, there is now a complete route, and the security level is obviously higher.

Taoism is like this, and Buddhism is basically the same.

They were not going to Dongsheng China to search for immortals, but to preach.

Because of the prehistoric mythology system, the popularity of Buddhism is declining. In fact, some Buddhist leaders want to talk to Taisun about revising the Buddhism in the prehistoric mythology.

But obviously, this is just wishful thinking on their part.

In fact, many Buddhists also believe that the things about Buddhism in the ancient mythology system compiled by Taisun should be true.

After all, Buddhist allusions are relatively fragmented, and following the Buddhist context in the prehistoric mythology system, I was surprised to find that many things can actually match up.

Even if there are discrepancies, Buddhism believes that it is a mistake on its part. After all, Buddhism has been circulating for so many years, and there is still a dispute between Mahayana Buddhism and Hinayana Buddhism. Mahayana Buddhism also has the difference between Zen and Tantra. Naturally, some differences are inevitable. Wrong place.

In the prehistoric mythology system, there is no detailed description of who is authentic, which is why it has not been resisted by Buddhism.

For a time, a large number of Taoist priests and monks rushed towards the capital.

Zhu Di wanted to go to Dongsheng Shenzhou, but Zhu Xi and Zhu Fan didn't want to either.

Anyone with a discerning eye can understand that Ming Dynasty will definitely develop Dongsheng China, but Dongsheng China is so far away, it is destined that Ming Dynasty will not have much control over it.

At the moment, the feudal king's past is undoubtedly the best choice.

Not only Zhu Xi, Zhu Fan, Zhu Di, but also some other princes are thinking about the past.

For the princes, that is, Zhu Yuanzhang's sons, it was difficult to have any other choice in the Ming Dynasty except being a wealthy and idle prince.

The affairs of King Qin and others can also be seen from some of Taisun's thoughts. Even if he was granted the title of vassal, if he was directly ruled by Ming Dynasty, he would still have to move.

In other words, the seemingly glorious vassal king can actually only exist as a barrier to the Ming Dynasty. If this barrier is no longer needed, then continue to act as a barrier in another place.

But now Dongsheng Shenzhou has given them a new choice.

As long as they go there, the court has nothing to do, and Taisun can't tell them to go somewhere else.

The hereditary vassal status is the most important to anyone.

"My eldest grandson, ever since the news about Dongsheng Shenzhou was published in Di Bao, our ears have never been clear."

"Almost everyone is telling us that they want to go to Dongsheng China."

Zhu Yuanzhang said to Zhu Ying with a wry smile, Zhu Yuanzhang is a little afraid of going to the harem now, and he is thinking about this idea.

"Who said it wasn't."

Zhu Ying couldn't help but sigh.

In the evenings of the past few days, every time after sex, someone would blow the pillow breeze.

Even Ye Yueqing was talking about Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Although Xiao Wencheng will definitely inherit the Ming Dynasty in the future, Ye Yueqing doesn't mean to stop having a child.

In the past few years, because she devoted herself to taking care of little Wen Cheng, Ye Yueqing was not in a hurry to continue having children. Now that little Wen Cheng has grown up, it is natural for her to start having children.

There is only one throne, and it belongs to Xiao Wen Cheng, but the other children are also the favorites, and they all fell out of the ten-month pregnancy.

After waiting, of course we must give them a way out.

Originally thought of as an idle prince, now there is an extra piece of Dongsheng China, and there is no strong national force in this place. Isn't it natural that it can be used as a Ming Dynasty vassal state.

"It seems that our grandfather and grandson have encountered the same thing." Zhu Yuanzhang was still a little distressed at first, but when he saw his eldest grandson like this, he burst into laughter.

At this point, there is actually nothing more to say. Now we can only start preparations for Dongsheng Shenzhou.

If you want to cross the Bering Strait on foot, it is naturally best in winter, when the Bering Strait will freeze.

And if you take a boat, June is the hottest month of course.

There are no ice floes on the sea, which is also conducive to the navigation of ships, and horses, cattle and sheep are also easier to survive.

It’s almost Zhengdan now, so we need to start getting ready after Zhengdan.

In this way, we can set off directly until June.

The Zhengdan Festival held in the 35th year of Hongwu's reign was probably the most lively Zhengdan Festival since the founding of the Ming Dynasty.

Because of the relationship with Dongsheng Shenzhou, a large number of Taoist priests and monks came to the capital from all over the country. They all wanted to participate in this grand event of Dongsheng Shenzhou.

Buddhism is not bad. After all, in today's prosperous age, Buddhism basically has some money. However, Taoist priests are poor, which is difficult.

You must know that in the capital, food is okay, but housing is a huge problem.

Not to mention that the inns were almost full, and most Taoist priests simply couldn't afford the cost of a one-night stay.

They usually work by themselves on weekdays, so they don't have any extravagant wealth. Staying in some inns in the capital for one night may be more money than they can earn in a year.

Taoist priests who have no choice but to sleep on the streets have no choice but to do so.

This also resulted in a unique scenery in winter. A large number of Taoist priests found places that could avoid the wind and cold and slept directly on the street.

However, this winter can freeze people to death, so sleeping like this will definitely cause problems.

Even if some kind people take him in, it will be a drop in the bucket.

Soon, the news reached Zhu Ying's ears.

In order to avoid a large number of deaths, Zhu Ying specifically asked his properties to take in Taoist monks who were currently stranded on the streets with nowhere to go.

Not all monks have it. A monk who practices asceticism is not much different from other Taoist priests.

In addition to asking his properties to take action, Zhu Ying also asked the capital's newspapers to publish news, calling on the people of the capital to take in Taoist monks, do good deeds, and accumulate negative virtues.

With the call of the court, many people opened their doors one after another and let these poor Taoist monks live in their homes.

Taoist monks in the Qing Dynasty are basically very good in terms of character and moral conduct, and they are naturally grateful people.

As for the development of Dongsheng Shenzhou, news has already spread, and the imperial court is preparing to officially announce some arrangements for this matter at the Great Court Meeting on the first day of the first lunar month.
