Happy life in the world of film and television

Chapter 1469 Liang Hongyu's guess, Xu Miaoyun's initiative

"That's right. The warriors in the fourth world are powerful, and the trade model will inevitably change." Liang Hongyu nodded.

The warriors are very powerful, so the caravans in the fourth world will inevitably be robbed without the protection of the strong. Therefore, the trade model must be changed.

"But we don't know much about the relevant models of the fourth world. We still need to explore it on our own." Jiang Chen said.

"Young Master, there are many continents in the Fourth World, and each continent is different. It may not be an easy task to find out the one that belongs to our Jiang family." Liang Hongyu said.

"Well, I believe it can be done." Jiang Chen said.

"Young Master, that's Bat Island." Liang Hongyu said, pointing to a small island below.

"Bat Island?" Jiang Chen's heart moved.

Bat Island is a force in "The Legend of Chu Liuxiang".

Jiang Chen remembered that Bat Island was originally the Suiyun faction. According to the records in the play, Bat Island was located on an isolated island in the East China Sea (called "Hell without Light, Land of Eternal Night" in "Bat Legend")
Representative figures: Bat Prince Yuan Suiyun, Master Kumei. Martial arts inheritance: 33 lost martial arts (including Huashan School secrets), secret manuals of many schools in the martial arts world, and Yuan Suiyun's family-inherited Wuzheng Villa martial arts.

The core members of Bat Island are less than 50, and there are thousands of peripheral members. Sphere of influence: The black market trading network spans from Central China to Japan. Bat Island mainly hosts intelligence trafficking, human trafficking, and psychological manipulation.

According to the situation in the play, the power of Bat Island is a combination of a business empire and a martial arts monopoly. Yuan Suiyun is unparalleled in wisdom and his martial arts are also better than Chu Liuxiang, but he does not have many famous masters under him, so he can only rely on Yuan Suiyun to maintain high-end combat power. The fact that he failed at the last moment also shows that Yuan Suiyun does not have many top masters under him. After all, Bat Island was established too recently and its foundation is still insufficient.

"Do we have any connection with Bat Island?" Jiang Chen asked.

"We had dealings with Bat Island when we immigrated from Ming Dynasty. However, as we stopped immigrating, we had less contact with Bat Island," said Liang Hongyu.

"Bat Island is a gang force, we should let the Royal Guard investigate." Jiang Chen was a little wary of Bat Island, but he was just a little wary. At worst, he could mobilize three factories and one guard to destroy Bat Island.

After flying in the sky with Liang Hongyu, he returned to Shuri Castle.

"Went out with Liang Hongyu?" Liu Siyuan came forward when he saw Jiang Chen coming in.

"Well, I went to see those pirates and also flew over Ryukyu to see the situation in Ryukyu." Jiang Chen said.

"I thought you were going on a date." Liu Siyuan said.

"Date? If you want a date, you don't need to go to jail." Jiang Chen came to Liu Siyuan, put his arm around her waist, and whispered, "Siyuan, are you trying to tell me that you want to date me?"

"No." Liu Siyuan firmly denied.

"Really?" Jiang Chen didn't believe it.

Because there are so many women around me, it is impossible for me to live in a world of two people like those ordinary monogamous couples in the first world.

Therefore, in order to make up for it, Jiang Chen cherishes the time he spends with each of his women.

Liu Siyuan glanced at Jiang Chen and said nothing.

"Let's go to the Imperial Garden." Jiang Chen didn't ask any more questions, but walked towards the Imperial Garden.

After arriving at the Imperial Garden, Jiang Chen and Liu Siyuan started chatting.

Jiang Chen had taken Liu Siyuan because he thought Liu Siyuan was easy to take. If it were pushed to the present, Jiang Chen would definitely not choose him. However, since he had already taken Liu Siyuan, he naturally would not regret it.

After chatting for a while, Liu Siyuan said, "Husband (after experiencing the experiences of various worlds, Shi Yi and others in the first world have changed their name from Mr. Jiang to husband as long as they are not in the first world), there is the Mariana Trench in the first world. Is there anything similar in other worlds?"

"Mariana Trench? There should be one." Jiang Chen's heart moved.

The Mariana Trench in the First World is the same as the Mariana Trench in the previous life. The Mariana Trench (Mariana Trench, Marianas Trench), also known as the Mariana Trench, is located in the Pacific Ocean near the northeast of the Philippines and the Mariana Islands. It stretches from Iwo Jima in the north to Yap Island in the southwest. There are trenches such as the Aleutian, Kuril, and Ogasawara in the north, and New Britain and New Hebrides in the south. It is 2550 kilometers long, arc-shaped, and 70 kilometers wide on average.

According to estimates by the first world countries, this trench was formed 6000 million years ago, and the deepest part is 6 to 11 kilometers, which is the deepest known ocean. The water pressure here is high, it is completely dark, the temperature is low, the oxygen content is low, and food resources are scarce, making it one of the most harsh environments on Earth.

The Mariana Trench swallows nearly 30 billion tons of seawater every year. Through nearly five years of continuous tracking and observation, these first-world scientists believe that the mutual subsidence of the Earth's tectonic plates is the reason why the seawater is trapped inside the moving plates.

However, this phenomenon is similar to the return to emptiness recorded in the ancient book "Classic of Mountains and Seas".

At the same time, according to the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", 30,000 miles outside the East China Sea, there is the country of Shaohao, whose people live for a thousand years and are reborn from Guixu every hundred years. It is recorded here that there is a bottomless river outside the East China Sea, named Guixu, whose swallowing power seems to be able to hold all the water in the world. In some of the books that were spread out, a mysterious country called Guixu is also mentioned.

According to the records in "Classic of Mountains and Seas", the bottomless river mentioned in the book - Guixu, is actually located at the Mariana Trench.

If it were in his previous life, Jiang Chen would definitely not believe it, or would not care, but in the world of film and television fusion, after experiencing several worlds, he knew that there must be a reason for this existence.

"What do you want, my husband?" Liu Siyuan asked.

"I was thinking about the "Classic of Mountains and Seas"..." Jiang Chen repeated his speculation about the connection between Guixu in the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" and the Mariana Trench.

"Is this, is this related?" Liu Siyuan was stunned.

This was the first time she had come across the connection between mythology and geography.

"I'm also guessing."

Jiang Chen said: "However, we have traveled through so many worlds and come into contact with many mysteries, so we must be in awe of this kind of mystery."

"That's right." Liu Siyuan nodded.

After following Jiang Chen, her three views were reshaped many times, so she did not refute Jiang Chen's words.

"However, if the Mariana Trench exists, I want to go and see it." Jiang Chen suddenly thought that the Ming Continent, Sui and Tang Continent, and Western Han Continent in the third world were all set according to the Asia in the first world. If the Mariana Trench really exists, there might be several of them in the third world.

"Will it be dangerous?" Liu Siyuan asked.

"There will definitely be dangers. Although the strength level of warriors in the third world is lower than that in the fourth world, the natural dangers are greater than the strength of the warriors." Jiang Chen did not dare to underestimate the natural dangers.

Jiang Chen was also worried about the Mariana Trench and Guixu. If the Mariana Trench was really Guixu, there might be secrets behind the Mariana Trench.

"Then when are you going to take a look?" Liu Siyuan asked.

“Let’s talk about it next time I come to the Third World.” There is about a month left before leaving the Third World, and Jiang Chen is also worried that something unexpected will happen that will affect his departure from the Third World.

"That's good, this way we have time. Moreover, the first world is relatively less dangerous. Maybe we can explore the Mariana Trench in the first world first." Liu Siyuan said.

"Ah."

Jiang Chen nodded.

However, Jiang Chen did not say much, but took Liu Siyuan back to the room.

"Husband." Liu Siyuan also knew that he did not have much ability. His ability to design jewelry in the First World was not outstanding in the Jiang family. Therefore, every time he served Jiang Chen, he was very attentive.

After learning about the Jiang family's situation, Liu Siyuan also read a lot of ancient books.

Liu Siyuan felt that apart from the fact that there were not many palace fights in the Jiang family, everything else was similar to those harems in ancient times.

"Siyuan..." Jiang Chen picked up Liu Siyuan and started the Xiaoyao Tianjue.

Liu Siyuan sang loudly.

……

Ming Dynasty Continent, Yingtian Prefecture, Eastern Palace.

"Your Highness."

Wu Qiao said to Jiang Chen: "There is news from the palace that His Majesty's health is getting worse."

"What did the imperial physician say?" Jiang Chen asked.

"The imperial physician said he won't last a few more months." Wu Qiao reported.

"Got it." Jiang Chen waved his hand and let Wu Qiao go down.

After Wuqiao left, Jiang Chen began to handle government affairs.

After the New Year, because the Ming Dynasty was marching south to Annan, Jiang Chen still had a lot of things to deal with.

"Your Highness is busy."

a voice sounded.

Jiang Chen looked up and said, "Aunt, why are you here?"

Xu Miaoyun paused: "Your Highness, I made you some ginseng soup."

"Aunt, this is rare." Jiang Chen looked at Xu Miaoyun with a smile.

"If you don't want to drink it, forget it." Xu Miaoyun put the ginseng soup on the table and said angrily.

Jiang Chen chuckled, reached out and grabbed Xu Miaoyun's hand, then pulled her into his arms.

"Your Highness, what are you doing? I am your aunt." Xu Miaoyun said.

"What do you think I want to do?" Jiang Chen held Xu Miaoyun in his arms and felt her body.

"..."Xu Miaoyun.

"You knew I was coming, so..." Jiang Chen whispered in Xu Miaoyun's ear, "You want me to eat you."

"Nonsense, I didn't mean that." Xu Miaoyun firmly denied.

"No? That doesn't matter. Because I want to eat you." Jiang Chen untied Xu Miaoyun's belt while speaking.

"You, you want to be here?" Xu Miaoyun was a little worried and a little expectant.

"No one will come in, don't worry, aunt." Jiang Chen said.

"Don't call me aunt." Xu Miaoyun said. "Then what should I call you?" Jiang Chen smiled.

Don’t call me aunt?
What Xu Miaoyun meant was that she did not refuse him from practicing Xiaoyao Tianjue here.

"Call my name." Xu Miaoyun has now accepted the fact.

After knowing that Jiang Chen was not the real Zhu Yunhuan, the last bit of persistence in her heart was gone.

As for the Zhu family?

She is from the Xu family.

"Miao Yun? Let me see if you are really wonderful." Jiang Chen's words were full of meaning.

Xu Miaoyun became even more shy after hearing this.

However, she didn't say much.

Following Jiang Chen's actions, Xu Miaoyun wanted to sing loudly, but she was afraid of being heard, so she quickly took out a handkerchief and bit it in her mouth.

Half an hour later, Xu Miaoyun pushed Jiang Chen away.

"Don't want it anymore?" Jiang Chen whispered.

"You should deal with government affairs first." Xu Miaoyun said as she sorted her clothes.

It's not that she doesn't want to continue, it's just that it's not safe here.

"Okay, we have plenty of time." Jiang Chen did not object, but started chatting with Xu Miaoyun about other things.

Now Xu Miaoyun has joined the Jiang family. Although she is not the wife of the Jiang family, after getting the support of Jiang Chen, she has also started to work for the Jiang family.

Xu Miaoyun did not refute.

After learning about the Jiang family's situation, she knew that what Jiang Chen said was true.

"Miaoyun, when I leave the third world, I want to take Xu Miaojin and Xu Minger with me." Jiang Chen said to Xu Miaoyun.

"You mean?" Xu Miaoyun understood what Jiang Chen meant, but she had never left the Third World. Even if Jiang Chen said she would leave the Third World, the time in the Third World would not change. But she was still worried.

"Well, you can talk to Bao Mingyu and the others. I guarantee you won't regret it." Jiang Chen said.

"Okay, I'll arrange it." Xu Miaoyun nodded.

"Then thank you for your help." Jiang Chen said.

"But you can't reveal our news." Xu Miaoyun said.

"I'll listen to you, but I want to find you and you can't refuse." Jiang Chen said.

Xu Miaoyun's face turned red, and she thought about what she had just done with Jiang Chen, and didn't know how to answer.

Jiang Chen held Xu Miaoyun's hand, his eyes full of love.

……

Half an hour later, Jiang Chen came to the palace and visited Zhu Yuanzhang.

At this time, Zhu Yuanzhang was already terminally ill, just as the imperial physician had said.

However, Jiang Chen, who possessed intermediate-level Chinese medicine, naturally understood that Zhu Yuanzhang could still be saved. As long as the right medicine was used, he would have no problem living a few more years. But this was not what Jiang Chen wanted.

After a perfunctory chat with Zhu Yuanzhang, Jiang Chen left.

Arriving at the imperial study, Jiang Chen summoned some ministers.

Because the cabinet and the Grand Council were established. Although Jiang Chen did not spend much time in the Ming Dynasty, he held power firmly in his hands. In the eyes of the ministers of the Ming Dynasty, although Zhu Yunhuan (Jiang Chen) was gentle, they were as afraid of him as they were of Zhu Yuanzhang.

However, this is what he wanted.

Only in this way could he seize power in the Ming Dynasty in a very short time.

Historically, Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houzhao and Emperor Wanli Zhu Yijun never attended court.

However, Emperor Jiajing Zhu Houcong was obsessed with Taoist alchemy and power struggles. In the early days, he worked hard to rectify the government, but later, due to the intensified conflicts with the civil service group over the "Great Etiquette Dispute", he gradually distanced himself from government affairs and controlled power through the cabinet. However, he held small meetings with the cabinet in the Western Garden to make decisions and reduced public court meetings.

The Wanli Emperor Zhu Yijun was mainly due to leg disease (right leg atrophy made it difficult to stand) and the constraints of the civil service group. In the early stage, he was assisted by Zhang Juzheng to carry out reforms. In the later stage, due to the deterioration of health and the intensification of conflicts with ministers, he adopted the "six no-dos" (no suburbs, no temples, no court, no meetings, no approval, no speeches). He maintained government affairs through memorials and cabinet, but long-term inaction led to vacancies in officials and intensified party struggles.

Jiang Chen will not let history repeat itself.

He controls the government and has his own ways of doing things.

In the future, I will train a few of my women and let them handle state affairs.

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there was always a empress dowager who controlled the government, so it was not difficult to arrange it.

What's more, everyone in the world knows that Jiang Chen is a grandmaster (this is the understanding of the Ming Continent). Warriors need to practice, so it is understandable that he has not appeared for a long time.

This also means that this Ming Dynasty is different from the Ming Dynasty in history.

By the time Jiang Chen had dealt with the political affairs that had piled up in the imperial study, it was already dark.

Jiang Chen did not leave either, and directly asked the Shangshi Bureau to serve the food.

"Your Highness."

Meng Ziyun bowed to Jiang Chen and then began to serve the dishes.

"Today's dishes are good." Jiang Chen said.

"Your Highness, you can try it. These are all made according to the menu you gave us." Meng Ziyun said.

"Okay." Jiang Chen nodded slightly.

Meng Ziyun stepped forward to serve Jiang Chen his meal.

Jiang Chen really enjoyed this feeling.

Jiang Chen is an expert in cooking, so he evaluated each dish while eating.

The Imperial Food Bureau of the Ming Dynasty is the Imperial Food Bureau of the Jiang family. Naturally, Jiang Chen wants the cooking skills of the Imperial Food Bureau to get better and better.

"Your Highness, try this." Meng Ziyun picked up a piece of rabbit meat with chopsticks and put it into Jiang Chen's mouth.

After tasting it, Jiang Chen said, "Not bad, this rabbit meat is well cooked."

"As long as Your Highness likes it." Meng Ziyun said.

"Come again." Jiang Chen has a big appetite and doesn't follow the rules of the palace.

"Yes." Meng Ziyun picked up another piece of rabbit meat.
Jiang Chen was drinking and tasting the food.

Jiang Chen ate very fast, and Meng Ziyun was too late to serve him alone, so Yin Ziping also came to Jiang Chen and served him.

Jiang Chen took half an hour to finish the meal.

While Yin Ziping was clearing the dishes, Meng Ziyun was making tea for Jiang Chen.

"Ziyun, how is your cultivation going now?" Jiang Chen said to Meng Ziyun.

"Your Highness..." Meng Ziyun practiced step by step after participating in the Plum Blossom Internal Guard Training Card training, but the training time was short and the progress was not fast.

"In the future, when you have nothing to do, you must practice hard." Jiang Chen said.

"Yes." Meng Ziyun responded.

After dinner, Jiang Chen left the palace and came to Shenyin Villa.

"Young Master, why are you here?" Shen Bijun was slightly surprised when she opened the door and saw Jiang Chen.

"I came to see you." Jiang Chen said with a smile.

Shen Bijun's face turned slightly red, but she still opened the door.

Jiang Chen walked into the room and sat down at a table.

"Young Master, you wouldn't come here for no reason, right?" After closing the door, Shen Bijun came and sat down next to Jiang Chen.

"Then what do you think my purpose is?" Jiang Chen asked with a smile.

"How should I know?" Shen Bijun couldn't stand Jiang Chen's gaze.

"Then how about I tell you?" Jiang Chen held Shen Bijun's hand, then approached her and said.

"Don't..." Feeling Jiang Chen's breath, Shen Bijun thought of the women she met during the Chinese New Year in the imperial palace of Bianjing City in the Qin Empire of the Sky Continent.

She knew that there were many women around Jiang Chen, but she never thought there were so many.

Knowing this, it would be a lie to say I wasn't angry.

But is it useful to be angry now?

"Really?" Jiang Chen held Shen Bijun in his arms, and said cheerfully: "Bijun, it's getting late, I want to stay here with you tonight..."
