Chapter 708: Revenge from the Eunuch in charge
The three Spanish warships all had a displacement of more than seven or eight hundred tons, especially the Manila, which had a displacement of up to 1,000 tons, which was very heavy.
It was not blocked in the terrain, it was difficult to encircle and annihilate it, and the Nanyang Fleet chased for more than 100 miles before returning, but it really couldn't outrun the Spanish battleships.
The appearance of Spanish warships made Zhu Cihong pay more attention to the construction of the Kaohsiung military port to prevent the retaliation of the two bandits, Spain and the Netherlands.
The seaway can not be counted, the boat people are divided into a day and night for ten watches, if the waterway is downwind, from Taiwan Port to Penghu Island, four more can reach, from Penghu Lake to Kinmen, seven more can reach, Northeast to Japan, seventy more can reach, south to Luzon, sixty more can reach.
The Spaniards' base camp in Asia is in Manila, which is relatively close to Taiwan, and the Netherlands' base camp in Asia is in Batavia, which is still thousands of miles away.
When they knew that the Dutch soldiers in Taiwan had been fed fish by the Ming army, and then sent troops over, it would take several months to prepare for this back and forth.
As the weather got hotter and hotter, Zhu Cihong did not continue to stay, and set off to return to Nanjing when the arrangements were almost made.
Before leaving, Zhu Cihong summoned Zhu Chenggong alone again and asked him to hurry up the construction of coastal defense, and send people to Luzon Island to open up some strongholds.
Luzon is a Spanish colony, but not their land, as early as 200 years ago, when Zheng He went to the West, the Ming Dynasty was the suzerainty of Luzon.
During the five years of Hongwu to the eighth year of Yongle, the Luzon State sent envoys to visit the Ming Dynasty three times, and the Ming Dynasty also sent envoys to apply for employment in the third year of Yongle, and then for more than 100 years, the merchants and people on the southeast coast of the Ming Dynasty had quite frequent exchanges with Luzon, and overseas Chinese began to stay in Luzon.
In the future, Daming will have to help this group of little brothers restore the country! Whether you want to or not, let's go back to the country first.
In the next few years, Zhu Cihong will emigrate millions of people from inland provinces to Taiwan and Luzon, forming a society dominated by Han Chinese.
......
When Zhu Cihong returned to Beijing on a dragon boat, the draft in the palace also came to an end.
In the East Fifth Institute, Xu Chenyun looked from afar by the railing, listening intently.
In the East Sixth Palace, which is separated by a wall, I don't know which palace comes from the sound of plucking one after another, or the elegant "Yangchun White Snow" of Chu during the Warring States Period.
Yang Yuerou suddenly came up and said: "Sister, I have inquired clearly, the one who plays the piano every day is Concubine De Niangniang, I heard that it is ......"
Xu Chenyun nodded silently, she had also heard of the romance of the Son of Heaven, but listening to the music and knowing people, the piano skills of this concubine are really profound, flowing smoothly, like an unfolding scroll, with a profound artistic conception, and an excellent temperament.
"Xu Chenyun, Yang Yuerou, the two of you are cleaning the palace today!" A female officer assigns a task.
In the past 20 days, in addition to learning etiquette, the three hundred show girls have to do some errands like palace maids, such as cleaning up palaces such as Kunning Palace.
After the female official left, Yang Yuerou was extremely happy, her big eyes narrowed into a heart, and she said excitedly: "I can finally see His Majesty's residence!" ”
Xu Chenyun had long been immune to this little fan sister of the Son of Heaven, so she shook her head slightly at the moment, and took her hand to Qianqing Palace.
When passing by Yongxiang in the East Sixth Palace, she saw the eldest princess Kunxing from a distance, Xu Chenyun felt a little familiar, but she couldn't remember where she had seen it.
Qianqing Palace is the head of the back court, the building is grand, it is located on the single-layer white marble pedestal, the corridor is nine rooms wide, five rooms deep, more than 20 meters high from the table top to the main ridge, its "Qianqing" two words, meaning that the world is clean and peaceful.
Entering the Qianqing Gate, Xu Chenyun looked around curiously, only to see that there was a flock of pigeons on this extraordinary, gorgeous and magnificent palace?
These pigeons are familiar......
Xu Chenyun couldn't help but ask the female officer who led the way about these pigeons.
I only heard the female officer whisper: "Most of these pigeons were raised by the Wuying Hall in the previous dynasty, and they were used to transmit military aircraft events, and I heard that some of them were raised by the saints to contact Dongchang and Jinyi Wei ......."
"Those important letters, aren't you afraid of being intercepted?" Yang Yuerou whispered.
The female officer glared at her and said, "Just your brains are easy to use?" Don't say that whoever eats the bear's heart leopard dares to intercept it, even if you put the letter in front of you, you can't understand the contents! ”
It turned out to be dense, Xu Chenyun understood in her heart, and no longer thought about the pigeon.
The east and west of the Qianqing palace are connected with each other, and between the two golden pillars of the back eaves is a huge golden screen, and the front of the screen is the throne.
The hall was very quiet, except for the incense from the four gilded incense burners, and light smoke rising from them.
The two of them carefully cleaned up the Qianqing Palace, looking around from time to time.
"Are these the Ink Treasures of the Son of Heaven?"
When Yang Yuerou looked at the map of Ming Jun and Xianchen, the world map and the national policy, the smile on her face was even stronger, and she was even more curious about Brother Zhu in her heart.
Xu Chenyun also saw this, but although she was surprised by the emperor's ambitions, she was deeply attracted by the above handwriting.
These handwritings ...... Why is it so similar to Zhu Gongzi's handwriting? ”
She muttered, very puzzled.
Could it be that Zhu Gongzi is His Majesty?
Although Xu Chenyun had this kind of speculation in her heart, she quickly erased it.
Because according to her understanding, the temperaments of these two people are almost opposite, the Son of Heaven is ruthless and ruthless, and Zhu Gongzi is gentle and elegant, and they are not the same type at all.
"Let you do your work, what are you looking at!"
The steward eunuch An Dahai quietly came to the palace like a ghost.
He stared at Xu Chenyun and Yang Yuerou, his face was grim: "The Son of Heaven's Mobao is also something you can see?" ”
Xu Chenyun didn't reply, she had lived in the palace for more than half a month, and she could see very clearly that it was better for these eunuchs to provoke as little as possible.
During this period, many show girls were bullied, especially several show girls in the Qing Kingdom, who were often beaten by eunuchs for some trivial things, which was called a miserable one.
For example, the princess of the Qing Kingdom has learned etiquette since she was a child, but in learning court etiquette, she has been cleaned up by her mother-in-law many times.
Xu Chenyun saw it in his eyes, the intrigue and darkness in the palace, especially these stewards and eunuchs, they were slaves in front of their masters, and they were masters in front of people, and most of them were the masters who would repay them.
The steward eunuch An Dahai stared at her, obviously remembering the hatred during the draft.
"What, say you're still not happy, give our family a face? Do you think you're the imperial princess? Is it the Queen? ”
Saying that, An Dahai raised the dust of the Buddha and was about to teach a lesson.
Xu Chenyun didn't want to provoke this old eunuch, it didn't mean that he would be bullied by this yin and yang man, so he grabbed Buddha dust and shook An Dahai out.
Due to the fierce shot, only a crisp sound was heard, and the phoenix pendant on her body slipped to the ground.
Xu Chenyun hurriedly picked it up, looking anxious, to check whether the jade pendant was damaged.
Fortunately, people raise jade, jade raises people, Feng Pei did not have cracks, and she exhaled a long breath.
The ancients said that they had to spare people and spare people, An Dahai obviously didn't know this truth, and blindly wanted to lose his own way.
Seeing this piece of phoenix pendant, he was stunned for a moment, and then he became energetic, pointing at Xu Chenyun and shouting: "You little hoof, dare to steal the jade pendant of the Son of Heaven!" ”
"I don't have it, it's my own jade pendant!" Xu Chenyun frowned slightly and explained.
"You're in for a big deal!"
An Dahai naturally would not let go of this opportunity, and immediately called a group of eunuchs and palace maids, rolling up their sleeves and preparing to drag people away and torture them to vent their hatred.
