I, Jiajing, successfully cultivated immortality

"No, how did Your Majesty know that I came here to deliver a letter?"

But soon, Lu Fang felt relieved, looked at the envelope in her hand, and said to herself silently: "Yes, Your Majesty has already accomplished Taoism, and it is only natural to know this!"

After trying to understand the ins and outs of the matter, Lu Fang handed the envelope in Jiajing's hands in awe.

Jiajing took the envelope from Lu Fang's hand, and after glancing at the signature on it, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and he said to himself.

"Hey, it turns out that this letter was not sent by Hu Zongxian, but by Tan Lun. It is said that Tan Lun suddenly wrote me a letter. Did something happen in Fujian?"

With such doubts in mind, Jiajingxuan opened the envelope in his hand, carefully browsed the contents on it, and saw that it said.

"Your Majesty, not long ago, I received a letter from Xu Jie. In the letter, he asked me about the whole story of the grain allocation in Zhejiang not long ago."

"Weichen has considered it again and again, and finally decided to inform Yu Xu Jie of your order to adjust the grain, and please forgive me, Your Majesty!"

"Also, these days..."

After Jiajing finished reading the contents of the letter, the expression on his face suddenly turned serious, and he slammed the table suddenly, saying in a deep voice.

"This Xu Jie is really impatient. He even dares to investigate this kind of thing. It seems that if I don't teach him a lesson, he doesn't know how powerful the world is!"

Lu Fang, who was waiting beside Jiajing, was taken aback by this sudden change, and immediately stepped forward and asked cautiously.

"Your Majesty, what's the matter?"

At this moment, Jiajing was not interested in explaining the ins and outs to Lu Fang, but just handed the letter in front of Lu Fang and said.

"See for yourself!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

I saw Lu Fang took the letter paper from Jiajing's hand, and immediately began to browse carefully. After Lu Fang finished browsing the content on it, she immediately lost her voice: "Ah, this... this..."

After that, Lu Fang looked at Jiajing with hesitation on his face, and immediately asked.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty, what is your plan for this matter?"

Jiajing heard Lu Fang's words, after thinking about it for a while, he immediately gave instructions.

"In this way, you go and let those Jinyi guards stare Xu Jie to death for me. If you have any news, report it to me immediately!"

When Lu Fang heard the words, she immediately restrained her mind and replied in a deep voice.

"Obey, Your Majesty, this servant will do it now!"

……

The first ray of sunlight in the morning shines on the waves raised by the sea in the distance, and the sky, light and sea color blend together and shine brightly.

The fleet composed of thirteen treasure ships is being arranged in a tight battle formation, without revealing any flaws, sailing in the predetermined direction, and the flag of Ming Dynasty flying on the ship is fluttering in the sea wind.

At this moment, on the deck of the ship, Gu Yan, the supreme commander of the fleet, was observing the situation in the distance with the binoculars in his hand.

Not long after, I saw Gu Yan put down the binoculars in his hand, and immediately called his subordinates to give instructions.

"Give me the map!"

"Yes, my lord!"

After that, a map drawn on parchment was presented in front of Gu Yan. Immediately after comparing the route drawn on the map and the signs on it, Gu Yan excitedly asked The subordinate announced.

"According to the markings on the map, we have reached the vicinity of Tianzhu. Next, we only need to continue sailing in this direction, and we will be able to come to this place named the Strait of Malacca by His Majesty!"

The subordinates on the side heard this and were quite excited about it. It has been at least two months since the fleet officially set off.

In the past two months, the fleet has been sailing in this endless sea, and usually can only rely on the compass to identify the direction.

Because a large amount of bean sprouts were prepared on board before departure, none of the crew members on the thirteen treasure ships showed many symptoms of scurvy.

At this moment, a panicked voice came: "My lord, five unidentified warships suddenly appeared not far ahead!"

"What, give me the telescope!"

After that, Gu Yan took over the binoculars from his subordinate and began to observe the five warships in the distance.

On the other side, the commander of the five warships, Nils Rosen, also received a report from his subordinates, saying that a large number of unidentified warships suddenly appeared in the sea area not far ahead.

Nils Rosen belongs to the Spanish Armada. The purpose of his trip is to go to that mysterious oriental country and start a trade with it.

The silk, tea, porcelain, etc. produced in that eastern country were widely welcomed by the European aristocracy, and the extravagant Spanish royal family was no exception. Because of this, Niels Rosen accepted this A mission from the Spanish royal family.

The purpose of his trip is, on the one hand, to start trade with Daming, and on the other hand, to take this opportunity to explore the reality of Daming, to better understand the situation of this eastern country, so as to prepare for the next conquest!

After all, the new king Philip II had just ascended the throne for five years, and the national power of the Kingdom of Spain had reached its peak. The ambitious new king was eager to expand the territory of the Kingdom of Spain, occupy more colonies, and spread the glory of Christianity to more far away.

After that, Nils Rosen took the monocular from the sailors on the deck and looked in the direction of the Deming Fleet, but what he saw next made him frightened. .

In the distance, thirteen ships with wide bottoms, high bows and high sterns and blue flags are gradually changing their formations and lined up in a straight line. Below, a dazzling light was reflected.

When Nils saw this, he panicked. He knew very well that the fleet on the opposite side was ready for battle!

"God, how could such a powerful fleet suddenly appear here!"

"Even in the Armada, there are no such huge warships. Besides, judging from the caliber of the cannons mounted on those warships, their power must be terrifying!"

After Nils put down the binoculars, he hurriedly called the most experienced first officer on board, handed him the binoculars in his hand, and asked.

"Hey, Danny, can you recognize which country's flag is flying in the fleet opposite?"

"I don't know, boss, maybe I can try!"

After the first officer named Danny finished speaking, he took the binoculars from Niels' hand and began to look at the Ming army fleet in the distance.

"It's so strange, those ships hang blue flags with thirteen stars embroidered on them, and in the center of the flags, there is also a dragon embroidered with claws and claws, and the sun...and the moon beside it?"

After observing for a long time, I saw that the first officer named Danny reluctantly put down the binoculars in his hand and reported to Niels.

"Boss, I've never seen such a flag!"

Seeing this situation, Nils had no choice but to shake his head and ordered rather helplessly.

"How about this, tell the opposite side with the semaphore that we have no hostility and don't want to go to war with them!"

"Follow your orders!" (End of this chapter)
