On Mochou Lake, there are islands in the lake.
Looking at the water from afar, it is like a pearl in the sea.
The edge of the island is green, it is lush vegetation, but the middle and upper end is pink, and it is planted with begonias.
Under the sunset, the infinite scenery is bathed in a brilliant golden light.
In late spring, when the begonia flowers bloom, there is a burst of fragrance from afar.
Xia Xun wore a wide robe and big sleeves, his hair was tied with a scarf, and he was dressed elegantly, standing on the bow of the boat, and the boat was sailing on the water, as if it had broken through the quiet mirror, and the ripples of the two lines quietly swayed.
Immediately have to prepare to send an envoy to Dongying, parting, of course, to meet Ming'er, Xia Xun went to the Dingguo Mansion to visit once, on the occasion of the housewarming, the Dingguo Mansion to express his gratitude, but I heard that the little county lord is temporarily living in the Xu family villa on Mochou Lake to enjoy the fun.
So, after Xia Xun said goodbye, he sneaked here.
The whole Mochou Lake is the industry of the Xu family, there is no one around, and there is no boating on the lake, only Xia Xun has a small boat, which quietly rowed to the island in the middle of the lake.
The boat stopped, went ashore, and the sun had set.
In the song of birds and insects, Xia Xun walked along the stone steps to the island, passed through the bamboo and green trees, and there were patches of flowers in front of him, like Peach Blossom Island.
Silk begonia, Xifu begonia, planted begonia flowers, but unfortunately the sky has been dark, can not enjoy the dawn of the bright glow of the gorgeous spring, but Xia Xun now has no intention of appreciating these, the most beautiful scenery, is her heart, his pace is getting faster and faster to guide the Xu family servant walked quickly to the front yard, begonia flowers suddenly appeared in an elegant and abnormal courtyard, bamboo fence small courtyard, can not prevent anything, just for a situation, zigzag bamboo fence along the undulating terrain of the island stretching out, The scattered huts also extend to the sea of flowers, and I don't know how many they are.
Xia Xun stood under the porch and waited, and the servant hurried to report it.
After a short effort, Xia Xun heard the crisp sound of "da-da-da", looked up, and a delicate girl ran quickly along the verandah, lifting the skirt lightly with both hands, the skirt was lightly raised, and the small waist was graceful, until he was closer, he stopped his footsteps, gasped softly, and said with a smile: "Brother Xu, you are here" The sound of clicking is a pair of clogs under her feet, the clogs of Tang wood, the workmanship is very exquisite, a pair of ice and snow jade feet, delicate and delicate, its white as frost, there are colorful lanterns hanging under the corridor, the light is reflected on the jade feet, the faint moist red light, crystal clear, I can't wait to make people hold it up, and gently bite it.
Ming'er curled her toes shyly at Xia Xun's burning gaze, and said lightly: "That eyeball, thief bright, what are you looking at?"
Xia Xun raised his head with a smile: "The jade feet are shining, of course a few people can see it if they have such eyes." ” Ming'er bit her thin lip, dizzy, and plucked up her courage to say: "If you want to see it, you will naturally see it in the future." ” Xia Xun's heart was pounding, looking at it, under the light, Ming'er showed her eyebrows and pretty eyes, her skin was warm and moist, and she was as smooth as a pearl, and she was reflected by the colored lights, and the treasure light flowed, a touch of hazy and mysterious brilliance, and the light star and the moon competed for brilliance, such a woman is a cloth skirt and a hairpin, and it is also a heavenly fragrance, not to mention that she is full of affection, as bright as a spring flower.
"I'm afraid that I will fall asleep in the middle of the night, so I burn high candles to shine red makeup" Unconsciously, Xia Xun chanted a poem by Su Dongpo, Ming'er was praised by her sweetheart, ashamed and happy, glanced at him, lowered her head, her jade fingers gently twisted the belt of her clothes, and said expectantly: "I know that you are coming back this time, I am afraid that you will have to leave again soon, I don't want to disturb you, I didn't expect you to come." ” Xia Xun pretended to be disappointed and said, "Oh, it turns out that Ming'er moved to this island because she was afraid of disturbing me.
Alas, I misunderstood the meaning of beauty, and I thought that Ming'er moved here because it was convenient for me to be undisturbed. ” "Not at all" Ming'er couldn't help but be ashamed when he said something, and when she looked up, Xia Xun's face was full of narrow smiles, and she immediately waved her small fist in shame.
"The big bad guy knows how to bully me" The tongue was soft, the pink fist fell into Xia Xun's palm, and with a slight touch, the delicate body threw herself into Xia Xun's arms, Xia Xun gently hugged her slender waist, and her chin rubbed her silky long hair on the top of her head, and there was no need to say anything, silence was better than sound at this time.
Ming'er was in his arms, listening to his steady and powerful heartbeat, his heart was extremely peaceful, because there was expectation, so waiting was also sweet, Ming'er's heart was full of sweetness.
A huge fleet went to sea.
Zua and the fat envoy ship and Xia Xun's envoy ship are surrounded in the center, there are more than ten merchant ships full of goods behind, this time there is no private trade merchant ship entourage, this is just the official transport ship, whether it is Xia Xun's envoy ship or those few cargo ships, are several times larger than Zu A and the fat envoy ship, cruising on the sea, as if a giant whale is accompanied by a newborn fish cub, standing on a small boat, there is a sense of oppression.
Further out, there are Chizhong's Fuzhou Naval Division and Li Yifeng's Chaohu Naval Division, who will escort Xia Xun to the east with a whole fleet, and more than half of the warships will be diverted to Ryukyu halfway, where the Shuangyu Naval Division has established a water village base, where they will be anchored and ready to standby.
A small number of warships were used as the frigates of the Chin Cha and rushed to the city with them.
Zheng He also came, and this time, he went with Xia Xun as the deputy envoy of the Qin Mission.
He also brought a musket team that had been trained in actual combat to suppress the Japanese, which was an elite selected from the Shenji Battalion, although there were only 300 people, but they were the elite of the elite, and each person was equipped with a long firearm and a handgun.
The sun rises in the east, the sea is vast, and in the sound of the horn, one after another warships sail out of the port and pounce on the choppy sea.
Seagulls fly in the clear blue sky and it's a clear day.
The giant ship is on the sea, not afraid of the wind and waves, and it is getting closer and closer to the book "I come, I see, I conquer" He Tianyang stood at the bow of the ship in military uniform, opened his arms, faced the waves, and said in a longitudinal voice like a poet.
This sentence was heard by chance from Xia Xun, he felt that this sentence was very domineering, and it would make people feel like a reader, so this sentence became his mantra, this ramming goods have nothing to do with it, they have to face the sea, and shout such a sentence.
"I came, I saw, I conquered" He Tianyang closed his eyes, felt the salty sea breeze blowing in his face, felt the slight undulation of the deck of the giant ship under his feet, and was intoxicated, a big hand appeared on his shoulder, and with a flick of the situation, he pushed him aside.
He Tianyang was about to be furious, turned his head to see that it was Xia Xun and Zheng He, and it was Xia Xun who pulled him aside, and immediately walked away without letting go, and after a while, He Tianyang's nervous voice came from the side of the ship: "I came, I saw me conquer" Zheng's grandfather and father both went to sea and made a pilgrimage to Mecca.
According to my grandfather, when going to sea for a long journey, some people will not be able to stand the kind of bumps on the boat all day long, and when they open their eyes, there is an endless sea, and there are no people in all directions.
Zheng He said to Xia Xun worriedly, Xia Xun forced a smile and said: "It's okay, father-in-law, don't worry, let's go to Yuben this time, the road is not too far, and my subordinate used to beg for a living at sea, even if someone has an accident, it will not be his turn." ” Zheng He sighed and said, "That's good." ” At this time, He Tianyang's voice came from the side of the ship: "I came, I saw my conquest" Xia Xun turned his head and said to a guard: "Go, tell He Tianyang, if you go crazy again, tie him up, stuff a ball of rags in his mouth, and don't let him go until he arrives."
The guard couldn't help but smile and agreed, and hurriedly ran away, and then, He Tianyang's hysterical howl could no longer be heard on the boat, and the world was quiet.
The ship docked at Sakai Town, and before the ship arrived, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu sent a boat to meet them, and then led them to the pier, when the Ming giant ship was moored at the Sakai Town Pier, the ships docked around were like sampans.
It is said that the people have not seen such a huge Ming warship for a long time, although the smuggling merchant ships are always continuous, but in order to pursue fast speed and flexible hull, so as to facilitate the pursuit of the sailors, the ships are not very large, and the huge ship in front of them, anchored on the sea like a movable castle, this has exceeded their imagination.
The soldiers of the Ming fleet have a neat military appearance, a bright battle robe, and especially the shining firecracker, even people who have not seen it can immediately realize that it must be a mysterious weapon, and it must have great lethality.
Xia Xun and they did not stay in Sakai Town for long, after they landed, they took a short rest at Ishiyama Honganji Temple, and then accompanied by the local guardian, continued to move forward, when their convoy arrived at Settsu Hyogo, the guardian came to Xia Xun and Zheng He's car, and said respectfully: "General Seiyi has personally come to greet the two angels of the kingdom."
Xia Xun and Zheng He were a little surprised by this news, Xia Xun from the information he had, he already knew that Ashikaga Yoshiman was a fan, crazy obsessed with everything in the Central Plains, in fact, there were many officials and gentry in the Ming Dynasty at that time who disdained to deal with and trade, and there were also many arrogant wealthy magnates who were unwilling to grovel to China.
But these obstacles are not a problem for Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, he is a pragmatic politician, he knows how huge the gap between the two countries is now, and he does not mind bowing his head if he is a minister in exchange for practical benefits, but after all, he is a hero who unifies the Emperor, and the Emperor is the Emperor Taishang who is sincerely afraid when he sees him.
He is the book, the book is him, he can actually put down his body and go out of Kyoto to meet the envoy of the Ming Kingdom, Xia Xun is really impressed by him.
The Sakai Guardian said with a humble attitude: "Two angels, please come with me, His Excellency the General is waiting for you."
Xia Xun nodded to Zheng He, the two got out of the car, and walked forward with the guard, and after a while, when they walked to the front of the team, they saw that there were various flags in front of them, and nearly 100 officials from the public and martial families, and there were guard warriors behind them, and at the front, there was an incense case, and the front of the case was covered with red felt.
Such a demeanor is really respectful, Xia Xun and Zheng He glanced at each other and walked forward.

Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, that famous big man is about to appear in front of him, Xia Xun couldn't help but be a little curious and excited, his eyes scanned the crowd opposite, and quickly locked on a person, whether it was where he was standing, or the clothes he was wearing, it was obvious that he was Ashikaga Yoshimitsu.
He is wearing the crown of the Ming Dynasty, which is the crown of the crown given by Zhu Yunwen when he was named the king of this year before Jianwen.
When the two approached, Ashikaga Yoshimitsu said in stiff Chinese: "The king of this is the source of morality, and respectfully listen to the holy decree of the Emperor Shangming."
