Zheng He came back. When he saw the new fleet, he asked who was the leader.
After learning that Fang Xing was leading the army, Zheng He looked as usual. He just told people not to disturb him, and then stayed alone in the house. He didn't know what he was doing.
Zheng He doesn't take a nap, so it's strange to be stuffy in the house at noon.
As a veteran of the fleet, Wang Jinghong knocked at the door.
"Who?"
Zheng He's voice was a little heavy. Wang Jinghong answered and pushed the door open.
The light in the room was not good. Zheng He sat in a chair and saw him come in. He asked, "Your Majesty, are you dissatisfied with us?"
Wang Jinghong closed the door behind him, then went to sit beside him and said, "His Highness the king of Han came out to see overseas, which is to plan for the future vassal fief, and Xinghe bo... Asked him, but since he brought a firearm soldier from a thousand households, he must have come to see blood. Father-in-law, are you worried about this?"
Zheng He looked melancholy and whispered, "Xinghe Bo is killing. He is killing everywhere. His majesty suddenly sent him to chase him. This is a change in his plan for overseas. I'm afraid... I'm afraid he's going to see blood!"
Zheng he rubbed his eyes, then touched his gray hair on his temples and said sadly, "overseas has always been comforting. Emperor Wen just wanted to expand the influence of Daming and make money through trade to support the Northern Expedition and various projects. The former Emperor was a little disgusted with going to sea, but his majesty is very different from the former Emperor..."
Looking at Zheng He's old state, Wang Jinghong was sad and said, "Your Majesty is sharp and wants to lay a big territory for Daming. Don't worry, father-in-law. Xinghe Bo won't suffer."
Zheng he breathed out and said, "yes! But are we old? Yes, we are old. We want to maintain the current situation. Your majesty probably knows this, so he sent Xinghe Bo."
Wang Jinghong comforted, "father-in-law, if your majesty wants to replace us, it's a direct will, but isn't it? So you relax your heart, and we have to start next!"
Zheng He picked up his tea cup and drank a cup of cold tea slowly. Later, his stomach began to chirp.
"Huh? It's cold!"
Zheng He has been at sea all year round. He has some gastrointestinal problems. He will feel uncomfortable after eating raw and cold things. He rubbed his stomach and said, "the most troublesome thing is his Highness the king of Han. If he has a temper, no one can control it. However, Xing Hebo is friendly with him. You should pay more attention at that time. If his Highness the king of Han is noisy, please ask Xing Hebo to appease him."
The day after Zheng He arrived at Taiping port, Fang woke up and came back with several ships.
Zheng He's face was a little pale. As soon as he saw Fang wake up, he asked, "Zheng Gong is not feeling well?"
Zhu gaoxu didn't like this kind of greeting. He went straight to his place and asked someone to prepare a hot bath. His feet have completely adhered to his socks. He can't take them off. He must soak them in hot water.
"Our family is suffering from gastrointestinal discomfort. Xinghebo, that's..."
Those Japanese prisoners were brought over at the moment. Fang Xing said, "just killed these Japanese pirates in xiaoryukyu to avoid disaster. Zheng Gong, these prisoners, will do it by himself. If there is no place to use, they will speak directly and let people chop them."
Zheng He looked at his words and expressions. He felt that Fang Xing didn't mean to seize power, so he smiled and said, "it's just that the dock here needs to be repaired. These people are labor. Our family will arrange it later."
Fang Xing knew that his pursuit would make Zheng He a little sensitive, so he bowed his hands and said, "so Fang will have a rest. If it's time, just listen to Zheng Gong's arrangement."
This saved face, but Zheng He asked, "where do you want to go?"
"As far as heaven."
Fang's words reassured Zheng He half, but he had to ask about the other half, otherwise he would not be able to sleep.
"Want to kill?"
Fang Xing didn't expect Zheng Hehui to ask. He smiled and said, "you are Xuanwei, and I am Xuanwei."
Zheng He was not surprised by the answer. He nodded and said, "I'll give it to you within Malacca. Our family should explore the past all the way."
It's a compromise. Everyone is happy.
If two groups of people are together, sooner or later they will make trouble because of their different ideas. Although Zheng He was a veteran, Fang Xing was sent by the emperor, and there was a generous Han King around him.
"Ah..."
They stood still and looked at the barracks in front of them on the right, but there was a roar from the side.
"Is this your Highness's voice?"
"Ah..."
When the second scream came, Fang woke up, nodded and said, "His Royal Highness's feet are rotten and stuck to his socks. It is estimated that he is taking off his socks."
Zheng He's nose moves and there are rotten feet on the ship. Once they get close, you will smell a bad smell.
Zheng He hardened his head and Fang woke up into the barracks. As soon as he entered, he saw Zhu gaoxu sitting in a chair with a wooden basin in front of him.
The wooden basin was steaming, but Zhu gaoxu's feet were placed by the wooden basin, and blood flowed down the wooden basin. His bodyguard stood on the side with a tangled face. It was obvious that his scalp was numb because of the tragic foot washing.
Fang woke up and looked at the sock that had been thrown on the side. The sock had been turned over from the inside. He could see a piece of skin in a gray black, blood stained human skin.
The room was filled with stench and bloody smell. Zhu gaoxu turned sideways and frowned: "especially, you are not allowed to wash your feet on the ship. Zheng He, do your feet smell?"
Zheng He said awkwardly, "Your Highness, on board... The little water left for washing your face can rub your feet."
A little water. After washing your face, most of them were sucked away by towels. The rest
Zhu gaoxu looked at his big hands and felt that the water was not enough to rub his hands.
"Call the doctor."
Fang woke up and ordered Chang Jianxun to go out. Zhu gaoxu drank and scolded, "if you have a big fart injury, you should call the doctor back."
Fang Xing shook his head: "Your Highness, if the wound on the ship is filled with pus, it can kill people. Chang Jianxun, go quickly."
Chang Jianxun hesitated for a moment. Fang Xing frowned and said, "the soles of his feet have been peeled off. Are you still walking?"
Chang Jianxun saw Zhu gaoxu's anger and ran away.
Before long, the doctor came. He didn't dislike the smell. He personally washed Zhu gaoxu's feet, put on ointment and bandaged it. He said that he was not allowed to work hard, and he would guarantee it in a month.
But who is Zhu gaoxu?
If you don't allow this foot to work hard for a month, he might as well commit suicide with a knife.
After the doctor, Zhu gaoxu asked someone to get a crutch, then asked Fang to wake up and go for a walk.
There's nothing to see in the camp. The sergeants and sailors have nothing to do. They just play and chat in the camp.
When Zhu gaoxu saw someone wrestling, he was eager to try. He was just frustrated when he looked at his crutch.
"When can I leave?"
Tens of thousands of people are here. It takes a lot of money to eat horses. If you set sail one day earlier, you can return one day earlier.
…..
The fleet left Taiping port on a cold morning. Zheng he bowed his hands piously at the Imperial Palace on the Nanshan Mountain, and then turned around and said, "go!"
Untie the cable, lift the anchor, and the fleet slowly leave the berth. The officials on the shore breathed a sigh of relief and felt relieved.
Zhu gaoxu's foot was hurt, so when he was depressed and nothing happened, he began to toss people. Zheng He and others avoided far, while Fang woke up that everyone was acquaintances. He was not good at temper. Finally, the local officials were called in. They had to tell him about the local situation every day. He also made serious comments, which almost drove them crazy for a while.
"The God of plague is gone! Good thing, gentlemen, I have arranged a banquet. Today is a loose day."
"Well, I can finally have a good sleep. Let's go!"
Several officials shook their sleeves and went back side by side, laughing all the way.
