Chapter 336 [335] Ominous Omen

"Is there a country established by gods overseas?!"

East Palace, study room.

The three sat opposite each other.

Zheng He confides the truth, and Zhu Gaochi murmurs uncontrollably, and his pupils lose their focus——

"God, god..."

The purpose of Zheng He's mission to the West has been controversial in later generations.

Xuanwei Overseas is recognized by most people.

From Zhu Di's establishment of the "Siyi Pavilion", we can see his ambition, which is to establish the prestige of the heaven and the kingdom, so that all nations will come to the dynasty, and his name will go down in history.

Similarly, Feng Tianjing's difficulty is too far-fetched, and Zhu Di's position is not right. No matter the people or the court, there are many objections.

This is the only way to restart Jinyiwei and eliminate dissidents.

As the court gradually stabilized, Zhu Di wanted to sculpt a golden body from the outside...

Before Zheng He, the eunuch Yin Qing had been sent as an envoy to Manga, Sumatra, Guri and other places in Nanyang.

All countries send offerings, and the Ming Dynasty is the main one.

The success of this move can be said to have scratched Zhu Di's itching. All the countries in the four directions recognized me as the real emperor. How many emperors can there be in the previous Dulwich dynasty?
As a result, Zheng He's fleet was formally established, and the scale of missions was raised several times.

As for other additional factors, there are more.

The sea is banned by the people, and there is no need to waste money on such a huge commercial road;
The origin of the forbidden sea began with Zhu Yuanzhang.

In the 31st year of Hongwu's general calendar and the [-]th year of Jianwen's reign, the sea was divided into east and west according to the geography of Ming Dynasty.

Western Ocean includes Southeast Asia and beyond.

Dongyang is easy to understand, and Luzon, Wa Kingdom, and Li Dynasty are all among them.

The last one is also wrong, please get proof from Zhu Yuanzhang to establish the affiliation with Ming Dynasty.

But Luzon is a little farther away, and the problem lies in the country of Wa.

The country of Wa is extremely dependent on the trade attributes of China and Turkey, and the energy efficiency of output is low, so it can only be purchased.

During the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties, both Jiangnan and the South had close business contacts with it.

When the Ming Dynasty was established, the trade came to an abrupt halt as soon as the maritime ban regulations came out.

In the past decades of Hongwu and Jianwen, the prices of various commodities in the country of Japan have skyrocketed, the country is in turmoil, and the chaos between the North and the South is imminent.

The wealthy families in the coastal area couldn't sit still, and the Japanese pirates resurfaced in chaos, frequently harassing the coastal areas of Daming, burning, killing, and looting.

Zheng He's fleet was formed with the intention of deterring the East and curbing the breeding of Japanese pirates.

In addition to the above factors, there have been records of visiting overseas since Qin Dynasty.

No one knows what is at the end of the world...

Or, is there really a Penglai fairy island?

If one can obtain the elixir of longevity, wouldn't one become a true emperor through the ages, with eternal imperial power?

Of course, this kind of illusory fantasy is only in the tacit understanding of everyone, and no one has ever taken it seriously. Otherwise, the clues would have appeared in the past dynasties, and it would not always be the "Emperor of Medicine" who died of alchemy.

But right now.

At this moment.

It was originally an illusory theory, but it turned into reality and came to my eyes...

"How, how is this possible?"

"There are gods overseas..."

Zhu Gaochi was struck by a bolt from the blue, and his world view was rapidly collapsing, and he was re-establishing it from the perspective of the existence of gods.

Zheng He and Wang Jinghong looked at each other, only silent.

The two of them can most empathize with His Highness the Crown Prince's emotions.

Because they are real witnesses.

miraculous dream;

God punishes the world;

The world has undergone major changes.

In the study room, following Zhu Gaochi's sluggishness, there was silence for a few quarters of an hour.

I don't know how long it has been.

The crown prince trembled violently, causing the chair and the floor under him to creak——

"You, how are you going to prove it?"

Zheng He said: "More than [-] officials and people in the Western General Army witnessed it with their own eyes, but the prince has never thought about it..."

"Smallpox disaster, but mortals can solve it?"

Zhu Gaochi's body trembled uncontrollably, and his voice was out of tune: "You mean, then Lu, Lu Zhirang is from..."

He didn't dare to talk about the "unknown" existence, because he didn't know its essence, and he was afraid of offending the gods.

Wang Jinghong nodded: "Lu Zhirang, several medical officers from Dong and Xiao received this method from the gods, and this method has been verified by them."

"In addition, today's trespassing of the dock is also because the so-called 'native products' are not extraordinary things."

Zhu Gaochi blushed, and immediately asked: "What is that?"

"The grace of God's blessing!"

"It's called corn, and the yield per mu can reach five shi."

"The other name is potatoes, and the yield per mu can reach more than fifteen shi."

"The third name is sweet potato, and the yield per mu is also fifteen shi!!"

"All three can be the main food!"

wow.

Roshan trembled again, and stood up: "You, how much did you say? Fifteen stone?!"

The two dared not neglect the prince, and stood up: "It's just a conservative estimate."

Regarding the issue of grain production, Zheng He and others had already consulted Tiaoyu after sailing for several months.

Although the Shennong rice seed is the main crop in the Kingdom of God, the other three are also sown as staple food, and can also be used as livestock and war horses.

Tiaoyu is the head of the printing research group, but in fact this research group has gradually evolved into a "people's livelihood technology" research group.

How to fertilize the land and ensure the abundance of water and soil is one of their research topics.

Based on the cultivation efficiency of the Kingdom of God, the output rates of the latter two are about 20 shi when converted into Daming units.

Therefore, the so-called fifteen stones is the "big contract" considering that the overall farming efficiency of the Ming Dynasty is far lower than that of the Kingdom of God.

Farming and production in each city are like a competition, and I am afraid that they will be weaker than others.

Zheng He knew that the grace of the gods still had a lot of room for development, so he didn't dare to entrust big false data.

Moreover, the number of 15 stones is enough to shock the world.

The average yield per mu of Daming is still hovering around 2 shi, and with the addition of various losses, it is not too much to count 1 shi and 8 dou.

What is the concept of 15 stones, it is unimaginable! !
At this moment, Zhu Gaochi's eyes were moist, full of tears of happiness, and he held the hands of the two of them tightly: "Okay, okay, the two father-in-laws have made great contributions to Daming!"

"God bless me, Daming, God bless me, Daming!"

The two dare not pick up.

God bless Daming?

God bless of course!

After all, the blessings of the gods' creations are real, but the problem is how to repay such a brilliant gift?

The two remained silent.

And Zhu Gaochi was already "dancing" in the study.

Hearing the floor vibrating outside, he was startled, rushed in to "rescue him", but saw that the prince seemed to have lost his mind and went crazy, and the person who came was stupid at the door.

At this moment, Zhu Gaochi woke up, and this matter cannot be publicized for the time being.

"Go out, don't come in to disturb you if you have nothing to do!"

The eunuch worried: "Your Highness, you must pay attention to your body and be careful of foot problems!"

"eventful!"

After they left, Zhu Gaochi was also tired from jumping, panting and returned to his original position, and held the hands of the two of them tightly to show intimacy: "My lords, what else?"

"Then... what kind of scene is it?"

"Aside from this gift, what is the strange news?"

Zheng He said: "Your Highness, the two of us can only say this, and we must not say any more!"

Zhu Gaochi was taken aback for a moment, only to realize that the expressions of the two were not happy.

It is obvious that he has received the grace of the gods, but why does he have such a color?

"what happened?"

Zheng He insisted: "Don't say it!"

"This……"

Wang Jinghong hurriedly said: "His Royal Highness, it's not that the two of us deliberately concealed it! The situation here is serious. If the two of us didn't know that we are weak, we couldn't completely block the news, and we would never confess this matter."

"Everything still needs to be judged by His Majesty!"

mention father.

Zhu Gaochi suddenly calmed down. This trip to the West had encountered such a major event, even if Zheng He went directly north, he would definitely not presume.

On the contrary, the emperor has not yet obtained the secret of the overseas gods...

As a prince, he got the first opportunity, so it was his arrogance.

"I understand, I understand, I won't ask any more questions, and I will definitely keep the secret!"

understood?

When the two saw him, they were taken aback, and after careful observation, they knew that the prince still didn't understand.

The focus is not on the secrets of the gods, whoever knows first, the emperor and his son, or looking forward to the possible blessing of eternal life.

The point is...

The gods established the country.

That is a country! !
The Kingdom of God is rising, unstoppable!
The so-called prosperous and powerful Ming Dynasty, wouldn't it become the most obtrusive existence in front of the Kingdom of God?

But the two didn't explain too much, the prince didn't know better, so as not to mess up.

The secret talk tonight is just a foreshadowing, lest there will be rumors and rumors in the future, but the prince is still in the dark, and he doesn't know how to deal with it to calm the situation.

"When will you two go north?" Zhu Gaochi asked again.

Zheng He said: "Scheduled in three days!"

……

Drunken House.

The same scene is playing out.

Compared to Zheng He and Wang Jinghong's deliberate concealment, Ji Gang got more information from An Zi of Jin Yiwei on the ship, and revealed it without any hesitation.

"Twenty thousand soldiers and civilians all saw it, and the gods descended from the sky."

"Zheng He, Wang Jinghong and more than a dozen chief envoys all disappeared out of thin air with the wave of the gods, and they did not return until more than a month later."

"Countless people can see the true God, it is impossible to be false!"

Zhu Gaoxu was also trembling: "God? Are there really gods overseas?"

"The elixir that the Emperor of Qin never obtained, may be found in the Ming lineage?"

Elixir?

Ji Gang was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect this level, and felt that Zhu Gaoxu was too "greedy".

Even if there is a fairy medicine, can it be his turn?

The position of prince is not in hand, let alone the throne of emperor.

And to extend this...

"King of Han, if His Majesty has to grant the immortal medicine, the crown prince seems to be meaningless."

wow.

The King of Han stood up abruptly and woke up suddenly, but knowingly asked, "What do you mean by that?"

"What do you mean? It's not interesting!" Ji Gang took a sip of his wine and was also thinking about it.

Fairy medicine, who wouldn't want to ask for it?

Even he...

That's it!

Can you still rebel?

The main armies of the three armies were all in Shuntian Prefecture. They wanted to raise the flag in Nanjing, but they were wiped out a few months later.

He has all the power in the words of the emperor, no matter how powerful the power is, if he loses the emperor's family, he will be a dead dog.

Because of this, he came into contact with Zhu Gaoxu.

The King of Han is not as weak as the crown prince, but also has a competitive heart, and is favored by countless people...

In addition, the emperor really wanted to replace the prince back then.

This is the reason why Ji Gang dared to bet.

If Zhu Gaoxu was supported to take the position, wouldn't he also have the merit of being a dragon?
Ji Gang looked at Zhu Gaoxu, and already had an idea: "Your Highness, there is another matter that Zheng He and others have concealed!"

Zhu Gaoxu sat down.

Ji Gang took out a letter from his arms: "Your Highness, please read."

Zhu Gaoxu looked at it with a frown, his expression suddenly changed, and he read the whole article three times before he said: "Quanzhou Port, Xingxiang is forbidden, and the young envoy's words are rude..."

"Zheng He, Wang Jinghong, etc., please go out and bow down to the gods, instead of worshiping Mazu and the Dragon King!"

He put down the letter and thought about today again.

"Today, the Ministry of Rites invited Dabaoen Temple and Tianfei Palace Master Daoist to come, but in the end no altar was set up!!"

One should combine the clues.

When Zhu Gaoxu looked at Ji Gang again, he found that there was already a sign of agreement on the other side's face.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "You mean, the nine people who hide in the Malindi Kingdom are related to the gods?"

"Hehe." Ji Gang said with a smile: "It's not related, the people on board have told me that the nine are honored as 'Balance Angels', and the holy name of overseas gods is 'Lord of Balance'!"

"They came here to meet His Majesty!"

"Zheng He concealed the identities of several people, obviously to ensure the success of this matter..."

"Based on my estimate, within three days, they will bring the envoy north!"

"In addition, Your Highness King of Han, I have escorted Anzi from the ship to disembark, and immediately go north to pass on this matter..."

"Your time is running out!"

Ji Gang is the commander of Jin Yiwei, and he was the one who arranged for Anzi to board the ship according to Zhu Di's order.

Now that the ship has arrived at the port, he must send someone north to report the news as soon as possible, otherwise it will be his dereliction of duty.

As for the implication...

The King of Han had already understood, and after only three to five seconds of weighing, he gritted his teeth and burst into anger: "Which way should we go?"

Ji Gang also asked seriously: "Your Highness, have you thought about it?"

"If what you said is true, this is the last chance!"

Ji Gang wiped out another secret letter: "Jin Yiwei will have multiple insurances when doing business. There are four roads in total. It is up to His Highness whether you can intercept them!"

The King of Han stared at him again: "Then why don't you do anything?"

Ji Gang also looked serious, and said solemnly: "Your Highness, if this matter is leaked, you and I will die, you know it."

"Whether the envoy can help us is still unknown. If not... the envoy is a hot potato in our hands!"

The King of Han asked, "What do you mean?"

Ji Gang said: "Even if He is a god, he lives far away overseas! Otherwise, why send an envoy to visit Daming? It shows that the power of gods is also limited!"

"Since we are going to do it, we must do it thoroughly, and do it without anyone noticing!!"

"Hiss!" King Han said, "Really want to be so ruthless? Then, after all, he is an envoy of God!"

"God envoys are also mortals, and they also have viscera. I have already explained this on the boat!"

"If you can get close help, it is naturally a great thing. If you can't... you have to get news and send people overseas to explore the kingdom of God and ask for the blessing of the true God!"

"As long as you grasp this opportunity, great things can happen!"

"Even if you can't, if your highness can't, don't let others think about it!"

"So, at the Siyi Pavilion, I will take people away tonight!"

Hearing this, the King of Han's eyes were filled with fanaticism: "If it can be done, I will make you king of foreign surnames!"

Ji Gang laughed loudly, and bowed in salute: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

however.

At this moment, a shout came from outside the door: "Who are you? Who told you to come up..."

The yelling came from Han Wang's internal officials, and when they heard such a strange noise, the smiles of both of them suddenly subsided.

He was about to ask questions, but the shouting stopped abruptly.

Immediately, there were footsteps approaching.

The two frowned, they were both defensive, but they were not afraid. In this important place of the capital, could there be someone who would dare to offend the King of Han and the commander of Jin Yiwei?

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Come in! What happened?"

Squeak, the door opened.

But the people who came had two faces, a man and a woman. The man was tall and strong, and the woman wore a veil.

"Presumptuous, who are you?!"

But the two didn't answer, the veiled woman said quietly: "Master, are you really going to blow up here?"

The man known as the young master said: "Isn't there a shortage of a restaurant? It just happened to be rebuilt after it was bombed!"

"Furthermore, I'm not in the mood to watch the intrigues of the Ming imperial family. I'm too tired and annoying..."

With the positions of Zhu Gaoxu and Ji Gang, how have they ever been so underestimated?

Ji Gang was furious: "Looking for death!"

He had drawn the short blade from the table.

But at this moment, the young man raised his hand, and a strange gadget appeared.

Snapped.

There was a loud and crisp sound.

A hidden weapon connected with "threads" directly hit Ji Gang's chest.

sizzle-

Ji Gang couldn't take another step, his whole body convulsed and trembled until the whites of his eyes rolled, and he fell to the ground with a "plop".

At this moment, Zhu Gaoxu took a big step back and looked at the person in horror: "You, who are you? This, what is this?"

"What is this? Taser X26, the scientific name is an electric pulse generator!"

Zhu Gaochi was furious: "What's wrong with Thailand... What are you talking so nonsense?"

"Hey!" The man sighed, took a step forward, and waved lightly.

I saw Ji Gang, who fell to the ground fainting and drooling, disappeared out of thin air.

And this scene finally made Zhu Gaoxu realize the great horror——

"You, you are..."

The veiled woman sneered: "Yes, you can pronounce His holy name!"

"Equal, balanced..."

Snapped.

sizzle.

Zhu Gaoxu fell to the ground trembling like his predecessors, unconscious.

……

It was midnight.

The streets in the city finally became less noisy.

Only the big restaurants like Zuixianlou are still noisy, the big customers are drinking freely, hugging left and right, and are very happy.

but don't want to-

grief!grief!grief!
The roaring sound tore through the night, and with the deafening explosion, the flames engulfed the entire Zuixian Tower, and smoke and dust rose into the sky.

The tall buildings collapsed slowly, and the wood was ignited again, burning blazingly!
There was not a single howl.

Only a few restaurants next door and the residents of the neighborhood screamed and fled: "Earthquake!!"

"No, it's the sky thunder. It must be the vision of the sky thunder that fell on the Zuixianlou. This is an ominous sign of disaster!!"

distance.

One master and three servants stood there, looking at the flames soaring into the sky.

Xue Nu snorted coldly: "Hmph, false prosperity, anyone who wants to kill my people will be sentenced to eternal annihilation."

The latter two said in unison: "Praise my lord, praise balance!"

Zhou Li'an laughed and entered the role-playing state again:
"Old Mo, I've been paying attention to this land recently to see if it's for sale. Well, maybe the yamen will investigate for a few days, but... I have another way, and I'll tell you when the time comes!"

The elder took the order: "Yes, young master!"
