Ming Zuo

Unknowingly, Xia Guo has become a paradise in the hearts of the world.

After all, in this era of turmoil in the world, Xia Guo is rich and peaceful, and the people live and work in peace and happiness.

Countless people yearn to come to Xia Country, and work hard for it.

It's a pity that in this era of underdeveloped transportation, many people cannot make the trip.

It was under such circumstances that the Zheng brothers boarded the wharf in Jinan.

The first sight after disembarking gave them an unparalleled shock.

"This... what is this? It's so magnificent?"

Zheng Chenggong followed his father and was very satisfied with the shock of his fathers.

"This is the Qingbei Bridge. After it is completed, it can connect the two banks of the Daqing River and the Xiaoqing River. People on both sides no longer need to cross the river by boat, but can come and go directly from the bridge."

The Zheng brothers stared blankly at the bridge deck that shuttled high in the sky, stretching endlessly, and their brains were a little out of order.

The bridge, of course they had seen it.

But such a magnificent bridge is completely beyond their imagination.

Almost everyone who comes to Jinan for the first time will be intimidated by this bridge, and thus have more awe and admiration for Xia Guo.

"Instructor, it would be great if there was such a bridge between Amakusa Island and Shimabara!"

Amakusa Tokisada looked at the bridge longingly, feeling a little uneasy.

Although he already knew that Xia Guo is great, but after he really came here, he suddenly discovered how great Xia Guo is.

The two groups came to Jinan by coincidence, and they happened to be welcomed by Prince Xia's mansion together.

"Mr. Zheng, His Highness is currently busy with official duties at the General Staff Headquarters. Please go to the Palace to rest and settle down first."

Zuo Kuan came to greet him in person, which is enough to show Zuo Menggeng's importance.

Knowing Zuo Kuan's identity from Zheng Chenggong, Zheng Zhilong and others became more careful.

"I don't dare to trouble you, I'm really scared."

Zuo Kuan smiled slightly, not caring about such flattery.

As Zuo Menggeng's status became higher and higher, the old people in the Zuo Mansion also rose with the tide.

If Zuo Kuan was walking outside, no one would dare to despise him, and his prestige could even surpass those of the generals.

But Zuo Kuan knew that he couldn't rely on Zuo Menggeng's power to act foolishly and discredit Zuo Menggeng for nothing.

Zuo Menggeng's plain appearance in daily life also set a good example for his family, making the servants of Zuo Mansion stick to their duties.

"This is Tiantong, right? Being here is like being at home. Your Highness has always said that you are amazing, you are a wonderful boy."

Yuan Shengshou helped to translate, but he was even more excited than Amakusa Shizhen.

Amakusa Tokisada bowed heavily.

"Old man, please."

The two groups were invited into the carriage and prepared to go to the Xia Palace.

Zheng Chenggong originally planned to be with his father, but was dragged by Zuo Kuan.

"Little monkey, come here, let me see, have you lost weight?"

The kind words made Zheng Chenggong's eyes turn red.

"Second Grandpa, is everything okay at home?"

Zuo Kuan liked his wit very much.

"It's all good, all is good. The concubine has been talking about you, and she's very worried. That boy Dahai has learned another set of boxing and said he's stronger than you. When you come back this time, he will definitely challenge you for a martial arts competition."

Zheng Chenggong raised his head proudly.

"Hmph, even if he learns ten sets of boxing, he is still not my opponent."

Zuo Kuan felt very relieved for the junior's aggressiveness.

"Second Grandpa will watch you fight."

Seeing that Zheng Chenggong was so close to the people in the Xia Palace, all the Zheng brothers were amazed.

"Brother, is Fu Song the illegitimate son of King Xia?"

Zheng Zhibao has no brains, and just opens his mouth to talk nonsense.

Zheng Zhilong kicked it with one kick.

"Go away, Lao Tzu."

A team of horse-drawn carriages was driving on the wide and flat streets of Jinan. The prosperity and excitement on both sides of the road caught everyone's eyes.

"People here are so happy."

Amakusa Tokisada just felt that her eyes were not enough to see.

What surprised him the most was that the people here all had clean faces and well-dressed clothes.The fabric alone looks worth the money.

Thinking of the poor and poor people in Amakusa and Shimabara made his eyes turn red.

"After getting His Highness's advice, go back and work hard, and you can also make the people live a good life."

Amakusa Tokisada did not answer, but quietly clenched her fists.

He swore he would do it.

"How is it here?"

Sitting in the car, watching the scenery of Jinan with his eyes, Zheng Zhilong was shocked and at the same time asked questions to his brothers.

"Fuzhou, Hangzhou, Nanjing, and Songjiang are all big cities in the world, and they are even more prosperous. Only one thing is missing in Jinan."

Zheng Zhifeng has traveled far and wide, and has been to many places, so she has some insights.

"Oh? What's missing?"

Zheng Zhilong also wants to hear the views of the brothers.

"Without the liveliness here, there is no vigor to compete for new vientiane here."

The brothers looked at the scene on the street and couldn't help nodding.

Although there are also many pedestrians, there are all kinds of men, women, old and young monks and laymen on the streets of Jinan.And everyone walks like a car, leisurely and carefree.

Especially the young and beautiful women walk with high spirits, and are not afraid of the peeping of passers-by.In terms of openness alone, Jinan is actually the first in the world.

Zheng Zhilong even saw a young soldier of the Xia army holding hands with a gorgeous girl, talking and laughing while visiting stalls and shops, and the people next to him also regarded it as ordinary.

If this were in Fujian, it would not be as simple as being reprimanded for immorality.

In some places with strict etiquette and customs, punishment and beatings must be indispensable.

Walking around and looking around, the speed is not very fast, but the shock of the Zheng brothers and Amakusa Shizhen became more and more intense.

Because they found that there was not a trace of bumps where the carriage passed.

The road under the car was neither brick nor stone, and it was made of unknown materials, but it was as flat as a mirror.So that the carriage meanders, as if walking indoors, comfortable and tight.

"Brother, we are not wronged."

The more she saw, the more powerless Zheng Zhiwan became.

Although the others didn't speak, the feelings in their hearts are not the same?

After walking for more than an hour, the surrounding pedestrians became less and less, and tall, majestic and solemn buildings began to increase.On both sides of the road, there are many guards, adding to the chill.

Everyone knew that they were at the critical point, so they cheered up and began to think about how to deal with seeing Zuo Menggeng for a while.

But at the same time that the carriage stopped slowly, there was a loud and frantic shout very abruptly.

"Why did His Highness King Xia humiliate my sect for no reason? If you don't give an explanation, my disciples will swear to defend the sect to the death."

Everyone looked in amazement.

I saw a Taoist priest who was not young standing at the gate of a large courtyard.

The Taoist priest held a tin object like a wine bucket in his hand, and was shouting into the yard.The words are neither submissive, but also like a lion looking for a duel.

That courtyard was very extraordinary at first glance. The cast copper gate was separated from the left and right, and a tall general came out angrily.

"Niubi, are you here again? Is it over?"
