As soon as he got off the ship, Xu Jing immediately began to count at the dock, and hundreds of ships returned with a full load.

After that, he didn't stop again, and at this time, entering this new Daming Palace, Xu Jing was actually in a trance.

When I left, it was still the Forbidden City, but now it is ...... This new city and palace have risen from the ground, and there is quite a bit of emotion when the young man returns home.

Over here...... It has almost become unrecognizable.

In fact, he didn't know the way home and the way to the palace, in this Daming Palace, the eunuch who was responsible for guiding him, how could he ever know Xu Jing.

The eunuch is still the same eunuch, but the Xu Jing in the eunuch's memory and the Xu Jing five years later are different.

Although he is in his thirties, he is in the prime of life, the royal command, and the unspeakably expensive Han Linlang is now unkempt, and the complexion on his face is even more wrinkled, and his tanned purple skin is like a mottled wall.

The whole person was thin, his lips were shriveled, and he only had a pair of eyes, which were still flashing.

The eunuch looked at him in awe, although he didn't say anything, he bowed down, and whispered all the way: "Please pay attention to Ambassador Xu's step." ”

When you arrive at the white marble steps outside the Daming Palace, the smooth floor tiles are connected to the white marble steps.

On both sides, there are tiger backs and bear waists, dragon spirits and fierce Han generals.

They were dressed in Qinci flying fish suits, and they stood across their swords, obviously extremely powerful.

Out of the corner of their eyes, they couldn't help but look at Xu Jing with their spare eyes.

Looking at the 'old people' who have returned in the past five years, the vast majority of them seem a little surprised.

They originally thought that such a man of great merit, at the behest of the Son of Heaven, would be a person who was proud of the spring breeze and the people of the Quartet, but what they saw now was just a person who could not hide his earthy turtle flavor even if he was wearing a new Qilin costume.

Xu Jing trembled slightly and stepped on the first step, the ...... in his hand but a scepter. This scepter was given by the Son of Heaven, with bamboo as a rod and yak tail hair on it.

At this time, there is a wind, and the wind blows the yak tail feathers.

In the face of countless risks in the sea, the envoy not only has the power of life and death over the fleet, but also needs to mediate with the states as an angel, and needs to give him the right to respond to emergencies.

Holding this scepter, it is like the Son of Heaven coming in person, within the four seas, life and death.

Xu Jing slowly ascended the jade steps, and when he reached the gate of the palace, he knew that the monarchs and ministers in this hall had been waiting for a long time.

The eunuch said in a low voice: "Please take off your duties and come in." ”

Xu Jing nodded silently.

But at this time, a eunuch hurriedly came out: "His Majesty the Emperor has ...... edict"

The eunuch saw Xu Jing, with a majestic face, and said with a straight face: "Please Ambassador Xu, hold the festival and perform the audience." ”

Xu Jing was not shocked by the honor and disgrace on his face, held the scepter in his hand, and knelt down on one knee: "Thank you." ”

So he got up, still with his boots on, and walked into the temple.

His boots were dirty.

And the Fengtian Temple will always be wiped spotlessly.

As a result, Xu Jing's boots left footprints one by one on this spotless tile.

When Xu Jing entered the hall, everyone looked towards Xu Jing.

The officials, at first, let out a low uproar, and then fell silent.

Xu Jing walked calmly, to the hall, both hands put the scepter horizontally, carefully held, knelt down on both knees, and kowtowed: "Minister Xu Jing, I have seen Your Majesty, long live my emperor......"

There was only his voice in the temple.

This large palace seems to be constantly echoing his words.

In the Fengtian Palace, the monarchs and ministers were as silent as death.

Everyone looked at this person, first felt novel, gradually, became more silent, and then ...... People sighed.

This is Xu Jing......

It's different again.

He's thirty-six.

But why, like an elderly man in his forties?

Emperor Koji stood up from his imperial chair.

"The Qing family looked up."

Xu Jing raised his face.

On this face, every trace of time seems to prove the endless danger in the vast ocean.

No one in the hall made a sound, and the eyes of people looking at Xu Jing, even if they hated Fang Jifan's dog-like thing, at this moment, they actually admired Fang Jifan's protégé.

Emperor Hongzhi didn't know what emotion was in his heart, he had left his seat, step by step, walked down Jinluan, and walked slowly to Emperor Hongzhi.

"The Qing family is flat."

"Minister......" Xu Jing got up slowly: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace." ”

Emperor Hongzhi and Xu Jing were opposite, looking at each other.

"I'm five years older than you?" Emperor Hongzhi said lightly.

Xu Jing said: "Yes." ”

Emperor Hongzhi said: "They all say that I have the appearance of an old man, but if I remember correctly, the Qing family was a suave young man. ”

Xu Jing smiled, it seemed that for him, it was a very long memory, but fortunately, he always remembered: "Yes...... The minister once had a good skin. ”

Emperor Hongzhi closed his eyes slightly, and then exhaled: "Now this skin bag is a little old." ”

The ancients had a not-so-good habit.

That is to judge people by their appearance.

In Daming, people with good looks often have a great advantage.

For example, if you are a roe deer, a thief with rat eyes, and a thief's eyebrows, people will look at it, ah, this person is not a good thing at first glance, go and be a political observer. But if you don't do well in the exam, but if you are born with a dignified appearance, if you have a good beard, you look at it from a distance, you look like a true gentleman, the young man has a future, it would be a pity not to be a Hanlin Shuji.

Everyone has a love for beauty!

Xu Jing said: "The sun and rain are exposed, so I have to be like this." ”

Emperor Hongzhi sighed and said, "My ministers, I have received my favor, and many of them live in good fortune. The hardships of the Wei Qing family made me sigh. ”

Xu Jing said: "The minister can survive, see His Majesty again, and be able to serve his teacher, it is already the mercy of God, and he does not dare to hope for anything else." ”

"This loyal minister is also a filial son." Emperor Hongzhi looked around left and right, solemnly and solemnly.

Emperor Hongji was pleased.

Fang Jifan was also very pleased in the crowd.

The officials, with emotion in their hearts, were speechless at this moment.

Emperor Hongzhi said: "Qing family, why do you return in five years." ”

Xu Jing said: "The ministers were ordered to go west, to the West, to negotiate with various countries, all countries were coerced by the Francois people, unbearable, and they were willing to donate land, settle Han people, open up ports, and include me under the control of the Ming Dynasty, and at the same time, I can also make ships come and go, and I can supply them along the way." ”

Buzz Buzz......

Suddenly, there was an uproar in the temple.

Dedication ......

Xu Jing slowly took out a map from his sleeve, which was made of sheepskin in order to be easy to preserve in the sea.

The parchment with a fishy smell was taken out, and Emperor Hongzhi took it, which was a picture of Western countries.

Chenla, Patrol, Manraka, Sumatra......

This familiar and unfamiliar country is marked in it, and along the route to the west, there are one red circle after another, and this red circle, like a string of pearls, extends along the coastline of various countries to the deeper ocean.

Emperor Hongzhi was stunned: "Is this from sincerity?" ”

"Yes." Xu Jingzheng said: "All countries learned that my Ming Dynasty reopened the Western Ocean, especially this voyage, the size of the fleet has far exceeded the previous time, the scale is unprecedented, hundreds of ships, floating on the ocean, the kings of all countries, overjoyed, competing to eat pot pulp, to meet the fleet, learned that the Western Ocean needs ports, twenty-seven countries, offer a suitable port 37, open up a total of 300,000 miles of land, and allow the Western Ocean to disperse the Han people in its country to settle down, build a port, for my Ming ships to use.

In Fang Jifan's mind, a word popped up...... Concession......

No, this is more advanced than the concession, and it was sent directly.

More than 30 ports, think about it, in Xu Jing's eyes, it must be a place with extremely superior geographical conditions, with a total radius of 300,000 li, and this port is almost equivalent to the scale of a county seat.

This is also the reason why the Manchu dynasty is in an uproar......

For no reason, people will give you the land, and you will be famous all over the world, and there is nothing wrong with it.

But there are also people who show doubts and are courteous when they have nothing to do, either they are traitors or thieves.

The officials began to smile, they really believed in the benevolence of the Ming broadcast, and the barbarians attached themselves one after another, eating the myth of pot pulp.

is not a traitor or a thief, but it only exists in the impression of a handful of people like Fang Jifan.

Xu Jingzheng said: "The minister negotiated with various countries along the way, selected the port, and recruited the Han people who lived with the natives along the way for resettlement, Your Majesty, this is all out of sincerity." Your Majesty, do you still remember, seven or eight years ago, the country of Manraka? The country of Manraka was attacked by the Francomans, 50,000 elites, and in an instant, the whole army was annihilated, and the Francos surrounded the capital of the country, and then slaughtered the city, and the dead were countless. For me, Da Ming, this is just a thousand miles away that happened, at most, it is just a warning. But the Western countries were all shaken, and the Franco-Rang machine also invaded Sumatra, Java and other places, and the wolf's ambitions were clearly revealed. Western countries, the equipment is not as good as people, ships are even worse than people, and the Francois man, the combat power is extremely powerful, therefore, all countries are afraid, and I Ming, since the beginning of Emperor Wen, will go out to sea to cruise, the Three Treasures eunuch fleet passed everywhere, all good-neighborly and friendly, all countries have received its favor, although this is a hundred years ago, but so that the countries are still fresh in their memory. ”

"The ministers can mediate with the countries, and the countries are also happy to be willing to donate the land, after all, by the favor of the eunuchs of the Three Treasures, the kings and nobles of the countries are convinced that the Ming has no ambition for them, on the contrary, if the land is sacrificed, so that the ships of the Ming can cruise calmly, and can also use my Ming sailors to balance the Franc machine and the water, so that it can be protected from the attack of the Franc man. For them, the land they offer is just a wasteland near the sea, but they can be protected by the Ming sailors, and it is clear which is more important than the other. ”

"Da Mingde is known from all over the world, His Majesty's benevolence is also admired by all states, yesterday's flowers, today's fruits, not the work of ministers."

Emperor Hongzhi suddenly understood, his face was red, and he kept nodding: "Reasonable, reasonable!" ”
