Xia Xun returned to China, which seemed to have brought a new atmosphere to the book.
Ashikaga Yoshimitsu sent the two envoys of the Ming Dynasty away with a grand ceremony, and returned home with Xia Xun, as well as more than 20 merchants and dozens of merchant ships, which were the daimyo who obtained the quota for exploration and trade to collect the most popular commodities of the Ming people at the fastest speed, and the ballast stone was replaced by a part of metals such as gold, silver, copper and tin.
Because the goods of the Ming Dynasty are generally more expensive than the goods, the goods exchanged for barter are not loaded with these merchant ships, they need to use real money to buy the luxury goods of the Ming Dynasty, which will greatly alleviate the problem of the shortage of gold and silver in the Ming Dynasty, gold and silver in any country in the world are recognized as the common currency, representing the real purchasing power, this kind of storage in the Ming Dynasty is extremely popular both official and private.
In addition, those copper, tin and other things are ready to ask the Ming Dynasty to mint coins for the book, and Ashikaga Yoshimitsu, who urgently needs a name and needs to expand his influence, is very interested in issuing coins with his name or head, Xia Xun just put forward this idea, and he can't wait to take the initiative to put forward the condition: three out of ten.
All the required minting materials were provided by him, and Ming Guo only needed to return the minting of 30% of the weight of all the minted materials, and the rest was used as loss and compensation.
The ship landed in Hangzhou Bay, and the dignitaries of the eastern Zhejiang army rushed to the wharf under the leadership of Chen Xuan to greet the Duke of Fuguo and Zheng He.
A banquet was held in the city of Hangzhou to welcome the return of the two envoys.
After a few months, Xia Xun seemed to be very excited to set foot on his homeland again, Zheng He didn't drink a drop of wine, so Xia Xun did it for him, and the wine was dry until the cup was dry, and he was happy.
On the same day, Xia Xun and Zheng He lived in the Gushan Plum Garden, so that they could leave for Beijing early the next morning.
There are ready-made villas on the lonely mountain, here in the Southern Song Dynasty, it was built by Emperor Lizong of the Song Dynasty, covering most of the lonely mountains, after the war of the Yuan and Ming dynasties, most of them were destroyed, and some manors were rebuilt in the early Ming Dynasty, which were hidden in the green shade, very beautiful.
Xia Xun and Zheng He's villa is facing the beautiful West Lake, open the vermilion lacquer gate that opens all sides, you can see the scenery on the lake, standing at the head of the building, you can see the "Autumn Moon on the Flat Lake" at the end of the white causeway, the scenery on the lake is overwhelming, the painting boat is moving, the sheng song is melodious, the water birds are flapping their wings, the flowers and butterflies are trampling, just like a paradise on earth.
The twists and turns in the villa are beautiful, the flowers and trees are shaded, the green is towering, and the fragrance is fragrant.
The two small buildings of Xia Xun and Zheng He are like the wings of a butterfly spreading their wings fluttering opposite each other, the two small buildings are stacked into a peak in the middle, the flowers and trees are sparse, the small pond is Zhanbo, the pavilion and corridor are adjacent, and it is a quiet and elegant place.
"Duke Fu Guo, Duke Zheng, the two of you will stay here tonight, early tomorrow morning, Chen Xuan will bring colleagues from Jiangsu and Zhejiang to see them off."
Chen Xuan led the two into the plum garden, and said with a smile, the courtyard had already arranged a sergeant guard, heavily guarded, and there were also green clothes and hats, white shirts and black shoes, dressed very neatly and freely, and the pretty little girl with delicate eyebrows and delicate eyebrows, at first glance was a local girl in Suzhou and Hangzhou.
"Hurry up, Grandpa Guo is drunk, help Grandpa Guo back to rest."
Chen Xuan said loudly, and immediately two little girls who were happy and disgusted came over and held Xia Xun, whose legs were a little fluttering, Zheng He turned around and thanked Chen Xuan and other officials: "You have the hospitality of all the adults, tomorrow morning, we have to leave for Beijing and reply to the emperor, it is getting late, so we will not leave you alone." ” "Okay, okay, please rest early, I'll leave after that."
Xia Xun put his arms on the shoulders of the little girl, his eyes were drunk, and he greeted Chen Xuan and the others with a big tongue, and Zheng He sent Chen Xuan and the others out of the door again, and when he turned around, Xia Xun had already been helped into the building.
Zheng He asked a man in a small hat in a green coat, "Where is my residence?"
A servant hurriedly said: "Master, please go this way, Grandpa Guo and you both live in Lianbi Building, Grandpa Guo lives in the left room, and Master you live in the right room."
As the servant spoke, he led the way in front, Zheng He stared at his back, his eyes shrank suddenly, and when the man stood on his heels, he looked back and smiled: "Master, this is it."
At that time, Zheng He's demeanor had returned to normal, smiled faintly, and walked towards the middle of the building It was dark at night, and the two little girls walked out of Xia Xun's small building with lanterns, and walked side by side along the verandah.
"Grandpa Guo is so young, very handsome" "The young Grandpa Guo is not the only one who is Auxiliary Guogong, Cao Guogong and Dingguo Gong are not very old, but they are all inherited from their father Yu Yin, this Auxiliary Guogong is different, and they are famous for their own skills.
Whoops" "What are you sighing?"
"What do you care?"
"Hehe, I'm a little disappointed, so young, handsome, and so big, if I ask you to sleep, you will ascend to the sky in one step.
It's a pity, I knew that a grandfather was coming today, and he dressed himself up like a bride, but the grandfather of the country was drunk like a dead pig, wasting some of my little sleeve girl's heart."
"What are you talking nonsense about?"
The other girl was ashamed and chased after her to pinch her waist, but the little girl in front of her hurriedly twisted her waist and avoided it, and ran away with a smile.
The two maid rings chased away one after the other, and the lights in their hands jumped and jumped under the night, like two happy fireflies.
They are all girls from poor families, and if they are really favored by a noble person and become a concubine of others, it is not sad for their lives, but lucky.
They have the right to pursue happiness, and this is their opportunity to pursue happiness.
And tonight, they didn't catch this opportunity, obviously a kind of luck, otherwise the opportunity for the sparrow to become a phoenix has not yet come, but it is likely to give their surname.
Because they had just left, several figures appeared outside the verandah, gesturing to each other, jumping over the fence briskly, and quickly touching Xia Xun's residence with dragon steps, landing silently, as light as a flying feather.
There were assassins A moment later, there was a bang in the Red Mansion, a figure smashed through the window lattice and flew out, and after landing on the ground, he rolled several times in succession, and rolled under the banana leaves before stopping his body, he just got up, and saw another figure flying out of the stairs with his hands dancing, this person was obviously beaten hard, and he retreated firmly to the ground, spit out a mouthful of blood, and his body straightened, and he lay there stiffly and did not move.
The assassin who barely got up just touched the ground with his shoulder, only to feel the pain in his shoulder bone, he gritted his teeth, and was about to rush into the building with a knife, when he saw a figure flying like a big bird, at this time the full moon was in the sky, the earth was clear, and the man saw that the person who came was just stepping on the top of the rockery with one foot, like a big bird flying upstairs, and couldn't help but be horrified in his heart, with such light skills, how could this person's kung fu be bad.
I saw that the man jumped into the railing, his feet had just touched the ground, and suddenly turned to one side, and the third assassin flew out of the broken window, looking at his soft figure like a rag, the person was already out of breath in mid-air, how dare this assassin dare to give his life in vain again, and immediately sneaked backwards, moved to a distance, and ran away.
The person at the head of the building flashed the corpse that flew out, flashed to the broken window, and a bright knife light flew in the face, this knife was extremely fast, with the sound of wind and thunder, and the person outside the window was also terrified, one foot on the floor dripping and turning, dangerously let go of this knife, and a sleeve had flown down the stairs lightly.
"It's me to stop" The people outside the building shouted, and the people inside froze for the second time.
Under the light, this person is Xia Xun, Xia Xun, who should have been drunk, has clear eyes at the moment, and has seen a trace of drunkenness, and the person standing outside the window is naturally Zheng He.
Xia Xun stepped aside sideways, Zheng He flew in, only to see a lamp on the table, reflecting the entire room, and there was a corpse lying on the ground, and there was already a puddle of blood under him.
Zheng He frowned slightly, and asked, "Fu Guogong, what's going on?"
Xia Xun smiled lightly and said, "It's just that someone stabbed him, and my father-in-law came so fast."
Zheng He said: "In the evening, I felt a little strange.
The subordinate who led the way, breathing for a long time, and his feet were also very steady, a subordinate man, with clever skills, was already a little strange, and his demeanor was quite good" Xia Xun smiled and said: "It's quite a style of marching" Zheng He was silent, and the assassination of the minister was already a shocking event, and if the assassin still had a background in the army, the complexity of this case would be even more unimaginable.

At this time, the movement in the small building has attracted the attention of the soldiers patrolling the outer garden, a group of generals and colonels holding torches, holding knives and guns, swarming towards the small building, Xia Xun glanced out of the window, and said: "Father-in-law, please avoid it, let Yang answer them, tomorrow morning, we have to leave for Beijing, it is best not to disturb us all night." ” Zheng He nodded, turned around and jumped out of the window again, when he jumped on the top of the rockery and returned to the small building where he lived, he suddenly remembered one thing, Yang Xu, the prince of the country, was sober and not drunk, and when he came to the plum garden in the evening, he was already drunk and couldn't walk, and his wine woke up so quickly that he already knew that someone would assassinate him This night, they really couldn't sleep well, Xia Xun told the story of being assassinated, the soldiers in charge of the guard were very nervous, and immediately took Xiaolou as the center, and searched the entire lonely mountain carpet, and the noise finally calmed down, and Chen Xuan, Si Hanchao and other Zhejiang civil and military officials who learned the news rushed to come like a burning butt, Xia Xun and Zheng He had to cheer up and deal with it.
Chen Xuan learned what happened, he couldn't help but be shocked and angry, after a thorough investigation, he had found that there were four less people in the house, three of them were dressed as night walkers, and their bodies were lying outside the window, and the other had escaped and disappeared.
The prefect of Hangzhou immediately ordered someone to take care of the Plum Garden, and the knife catchers hurried to the house of the steward of the Plum Garden on the orders of the prefect, but found that the steward and his wife had been killed in their sleep.
Although such a thing happened, the next morning Xia Xun and Zheng He still went on the road as scheduled, Chen Xuan felt guilty, and repeatedly assured the two Qincha that the murderer would be severely arrested, Chen Xuan was the person who was promoted by Xia Xun, and he was already regarded by Xia Xun as his own person, and the matter of public security was the responsibility of the Hangzhou prefect, no matter how he could not be blamed, of course Xia Xun would not criticize him, but comforted him a lot.
Chen Xuan and other officials sent the two messengers out of Hangzhou for ten miles, and then returned to Hangzhou, gritted their teeth and began a large-scale search for the whole city, which made the whole Hangzhou jump for a while.
On the Qin cha car, Xia Xun yawned sleepily, put the blanket on his waist, and was just about to take a nap, He Tianyang came in from outside, smiled at him, and reported: "My lord, the people of the hidden dragon have followed."
Xia Xun snorted, didn't open his eyes, his body jolted twice with the car, and he suddenly ordered: "You hurry back to the capital, go to the Dingguo Mansion, and find a Qiaoyun girl." ” "Yes, what does the lowly say?"
"And you say, 'I'm back.'"
"That's all" "That's all" "Yes" He Tianyang got out of the carriage and quietly stuck out his tongue: "My family is really inclusive, and the girls in the Dading Mansion have all been by him."
In the carriage, Xia Xun didn't know what he thought, a good-looking smile escaped from the corner of his mouth, he pulled the thin blanket to his waist, and leaned against the wall of the car and fell asleep.
In the palace, Emperor Yongle had just sat down, and he saw a stack of concertos on the top of the piece, and there was a piece tied to two yellow silks, Zhu Di pulled off the yellow silk and opened it, but it was a secret piece presented by Zheng He.
The situation outside, of course, could not wait until the Qin Cha returned to the capital in a leisurely manner, and then let the emperor know everything, all the details about the envoy's book, Zheng He had sent his cronies back to Jinling, the capital of the Ming Dynasty, before leaving Kyoto.
Zhu Di looked at it carefully, and it not only told in detail how to outsmart the pirates along the coast, but also skillfully deployed Xia Xun to separate the three leaders, plant the Sword God Palace, and successfully promote the downfall of the deacon Guan Si Boyi, who was hostile to the Ming Dynasty, and narrated the process of completely eradicating the Oda clan, the culprit behind the Xiangshan tragedy.
This is a secret performance, only the emperor can see something, the eunuchs in the inner study who are responsible for the selection of the music chapter by category have no right to read it, this is a secret that bypasses the general secretary and the inner study to go directly to the imperial front, when Yang Xu and Zheng He return to Beijing, when they publicly re-instate the decree in the court, it is absolutely impossible to hear these contents.
The Heavenly Empire, Enyi Fuyuan, can only serve the public with morality, conspiracies and tricks, how can he ascend to the hall of elegance Zhu Di smiled knowingly when he saw it, put the secret music into an envelope and sealed it, added fire paint, Mu En immediately took it with both hands, and the secret music was archived, unless a certain generation of emperors was interested in seeing the previous secret music and issued a holy decree, the content of this music would be declassified.
Otherwise, people only know that the envoys of the Ming Dynasty sent envoys to say this, and said that the king of this source has the royal family in his heart, loves the king sincerely, thinks respectfully, and tries his best to suppress bandits, and crosses the waves, and sends envoys to pay tribute and do business.
Others, people will never know.
"Yang Xu is loyal, this time the envoy said, the contribution is great, the matter of eastern Zhejiang, I should also give him a final explanation" Zhu Di thought about it and grabbed the imperial pen To be continued:
