In Hangzhou Bay, a group of officials, big and small, nodded and watched the huge fleet go away.
There are many big names in the fleet, including Yang Xu, the Duke of the Auxiliary State, Li Jinglong, the Duke of Cao Guo, and Xie Jin, the former chief assistant of the cabinet.
The escorted army was the Shuangyu officers and soldiers who brought the old and the young and moved to Tianjin Wei with their families, and the size of the fleet reached more than 100 ships, but after seeing the spectacular scene of the 1,000 ships led by Zheng He going north, the scene of more than 100 large ships no longer made them make a fuss.
The big officials left with the stammering of the middle officials, and then the junior officials also left with great pomp, and the remaining few small officials of the city department were also ready to leave.
"Look at the pomp and circumstance of the grandfather of the country, the momentum is huge" "Hey, each has his own life, and I can't envy it.
Our little people have the refreshment of our little people.
You see, this big year is coming, not to mention that the further north you go, the colder the weather becomes, the north wind alone is enough to see, they have to cross the sea zigzag forward, in case of a big wind and waves, how dangerous Back then, Da Yuan said that there was no way to throw hundreds of boats there, and he had to rush to Yanjing before the Spring Festival, and it was not easy for the emperor to pay New Year's greetings to the emperor. ” "That's right, you look at our officials, Ping Suli is simply the first of the kings, the second of him, oh, as soon as the officials in this mansion come, they have to accompany them with smiling faces and waists, you see that they go back this time, they have to accompany them to eat and drink, and they have to be comfortable before leaving, or we are good, we can't be so stammered."
"Hey, that's because you're a little official."
"Gotta got, you come back early to buy New Year's goods, the New Year, we are poor, but at this time we are the most comfortable and the fastest to live, don't rack your brains to think about what gift to give Shangguan, don't leave your wife and children to accompany others to drink over the river and the sea, like to find a few friends to drink, or stay at home with your wife and baby, comfortable" "Hahaha" A few of the servants joked with each other and walked away.
Shandong Peninsula.
As early as ancient times, Shang Tang's ancestors realized the connection with the Liaodong Peninsula and the Korean Peninsula through here.
The Laiyi people of the Jiaodong Peninsula were the first to master the navigation and shipbuilding technology, and during the Shaohao period, the ancestors were active in this area, and the Xia Dynasty Emperor Mang had "hunted in the sea in the east and caught big fish."
"At the end of the Shang Dynasty, Jizi crossed the sea and entered the court.
At the end of spring and autumn, Confucius once looked at the sea here and sighed: "The road is not good, take the pole to float in the sea."
In the pre-Qin period, the navigation activities of going overseas to find Sanshen Mountain were endless, until the fall of the Northern Song Dynasty, the Song dynasty moved south, and the Southern Song Dynasty was established, and the navigation center gradually moved south.
In the past few years, several ports in Shandong have regained their prosperity, and at this moment, more than 30 large ships are moored in the harbor and ready to set sail.
"Peng Shaodong, this snowy and cold winter, you have to sail yet" Peng Ziqi led a few people to squeak to the dock by stepping on the snow, and ran into some people who had just come out of the dock.
In winter, the port was much depressed, and there were not many people at the wharf, and these people who had just come out of the wharf were also people who had been trading here all year round, but they had limited financial resources and lacked large ocean-going ships, so they mainly traded with the Japanese and North Korea.
When they saw Peng Ziqi, the young proprietor of the Peng family, they greeted them warmly.
"Oh, Boss Han, have a good New Year" Seeing the comer, Peng Ziqi stood up and arched his hand with a smile: "Hehe, we are not going to the ocean this time, isn't this my brother-in-law going to move his family to Yanjing, I pondered, the emperor moved the capital to Yanjing, and the business of northern shipping will not be small in the future."
My dad plans to take some people with my brother-in-law to Yanjing and wait there to set up a stall. ” "Ouch, congratulations Peng Shaodong, your brother-in-law is the prince of the dynasty, there is such a relative, what else is there to say, when your Peng family has gained a foothold in Yanjing City, you have to help your brother."
Peng Ziqi laughed and said: "Boss Han, look at what you said, the folks in the big hometown, help each other, help each other" After answering each other, the two sides parted hands, Peng Ziqi and his party rushed to the dock again, the north wind was howling, Peng Ziqi covered his mouth with a towel, and asked a person next to him: "When did the old man arrive?"
"I just arrived, and the old man was losing his temper, so I hurried to find Shangdong."
"What is the reason for the tantrum?"
"Isn't it because of Simon's house?"
Peng Ziqi sighed and said innocently: "Can you blame me for this, I don't know he will come." ” On the dock, on a large boat moored on the shore, the owner of the old Peng Zhuangzhuang was blowing his beard and glaring.
Ximen Qing sat down with Erlang's legs crossed, drinking tea slowly and methodically, not taking him seriously at all.
Xiaodong's sister-in-law sat with her pregnant daughter and whispered, while Nan Feifei held her little daughter and told her a story.
The old farmer Peng patted the table and said angrily: "Who called you here?"
Ximenqing's face didn't matter: "Myself" "Where's your shop?"
"I haven't been idle in the past few years, I have been secretly going out one after another, and the one who took over the most is Yanjing Xie Laocai" The table of the old owner of Peng Zhuang pounded even louder: "You give your store in Shandong to Xie Laocai in Yanjing, and then you go to Yanjing to do business, who believes that once it is found out, it will be a big flaw."
Ximen Qing spread his hands and said: "What if they find out, where will they check me, don't I have a deep brotherly relationship with Wenxuan, or you think I am willing to abandon my family and business."
The owner of the old Peng village turned his head with hatred: "Lao Tzu didn't bring your family's rations on the boat" Ximenqing: "You can pull it down, old farmer, you have so many big ships, full of grain, you think I don't know, just send a few people from my family."
Ximenqing said with a smile: "Don't you need Lang Zhong?"
The old owner of Peng raised his head and said: "Xihan, we have all walks of life, and all kinds of people have them, so we can use you."
Ximen Qing rolled up his sleeves and said proudly: "If you want to say that this woman Corey, is there anyone more clever than me?"
"You, you, you're angry with the old man" "I can't cure me when I'm angry."
"You, you, really angry at the old man" "The girl who just walked in front of the ouch cabin, which woman is it, so beautiful" "Ximen Qing" Xiaodong's sister-in-law and Nan Feifei were reflexive, and they raised their heads at the same time, their willow eyebrows were upside down, and their phoenix eyes were murderous.
"Owner, Mrs.
Xizhu has arrived."
At the critical moment, the Peng family broke the siege, and Ximenqing immediately jumped up in surprise and said: "My mother-in-law is here" and fled on the first day of the Lunar New Year.
The Great Ming looks down on all nations, and all nations come to congratulate.
Cymbals play, elephants hang their trunks, and clouds of smoke rise from the mouths of turtles and cranes.
The palace lined up with a grand and solemn guard of honor, and His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty entered the Golden Hall with the grand ceremony of the Great Dynasty Meeting.
The hall of civil and military officials, relatives of the emperor and the noble and noble ministers gathered together, and the hall, which has always been spacious and grand, seems to be a little crowded today, because it is crowded with envoys from all over the world.

The envoy sent by the son of the powerful King Timur, who once occupied Central Asia and West Asia and threatened the entire West, was the first to kowtow to the Yongle Emperor, but because the Ministry of Rites had to teach too many national envoys and etiquette, the teaching was not skilled enough, and the first head kowtow was not standard, so the imperial chamberlain ordered him to kowtow again, until he knelt down for the third time, and was driven aside by the Yongle Emperor.
The envoys of the king of Manraka knelt because the Ming not only freed them from the control of the Siamese and established themselves as kings, but also secured their position as a trading center throughout the South Seas through the ports and numerous trading shops established there by the Ming people.
The emissaries sent by the King of Siam knelt down, and although they lost Manraka, with the support of the Ming Dynasty, the Khmer and Chenla no longer dared to openly wage war against them, and they were given many trade privileges.
The envoys of the King of Joseon knelt down, and they had been clinging to China, and their envoys flattered His Majesty the Emperor that the observatory they had been ordered to build had been completed, and that a group of Goryeo maidens had been dedicated again.
With the support of the Ming Dynasty, he successfully defeated his brother and inherited the power of his father, and now that his father has died, he has become the most powerful person in the country, and the stability of this power depends on the Ming Dynasty.
Arutai, the king of Hening, knelt down, he now lives in Shenyangwei, and is only the nominal leader of the Tatars, and the entire Tatar has been completely subsumed under the rule of the Ming Dynasty.
The king of Shunning commanded both Polo and Warat, and Wan Songling also knelt down, and the Ming Dynasty had sent the first batch of officials to Warat, who had been exhausted inward, and they needed to use their deference to His Majesty the Emperor to retain as much power as possible.
King Guri knelt, and the news of the forty thieves raiding the palace made more and more countries feel that this piece of fat was easy to eat, and they needed the protection of this powerful suzerain.
The emissaries from the Holy See and Tantra presented their blessings to His Majesty the Emperor, and the emissaries from Europe were allowed by His Majesty the Emperor to give him a kneeling kiss in accordance with Western etiquette.
A tribal leader from Nuergandusi noticed that his Imperial Majesty had begun to become absent-minded after his initial euphoria, and he was always looking to the left and right, as if he was looking for someone or waiting for something.
Under the imperial stairs, the crown prince Zhu Gaochi was supported by a small chamberlain, accompanied by his father to meet with the ministers and Chinese and foreign envoys, on his left hand side was the imperial grandson Zhu Zhanji, at this time a small chamberlain was walking in front of Zhu Zhanji and whispering.
Zhu Zhanji frowned and whispered, "It's not here yet."
The little waiter said: "Yes, the slave maid just asked, and there is no news yet." ” Zhu Zhanji said angrily: "This Yang Xu, knowing that the sea route is not easy to walk in winter, delayed the emperor's ceremony by not going on the road earlier, he really has no king and no father."
Zhu Gaochi stood for a long time and sweated, and vaguely heard his son complaining about something, so he turned sideways slightly and asked, "What's the matter?"
Zhu Zhanji hurriedly said: "Father, Yang Xu hasn't arrived yet." ” At this moment, another small chamberlain hurriedly walked over and said hurriedly: "His Royal Highness the Prince, His Royal Highness the Prince, the port of Tianjin has sent news, I'm afraid something has happened to the fleet of the Duke of Fuguo."
