Chapter 1582: Zhuangzi Xu Pengju
Xu Pengju is different from others.
He was beaten up since childhood.
In this Beijing, the distance between parents is too far, so Zhu Xiurong is almost taking care of him.
In his heart, Zhu Xiurong was like his mother.
When he was beaten and cried, he always stood up and scolded the "bad" children and gave him shelter.
This time the mission... seems to be very serious.
Xu Pengju shook his head and asked the emperor to go out. It was rare that he had said so many things to him with a kind look. In Xu Pengju's opinion, he would probably not be able to come back after he went there.
He honestly agreed, but he also understood what he would face.
So before he left, he wanted to meet his master's wife, because to him, this is his closest relative and most beloved person in this world.
Fang Jifan sent Xu Pengju away and sighed in his heart. When Zhu Zaimo came in again, Zhu Zaimo looked puzzled: "Mr., what did you tell him?"
"Tell him to do something great. If he is lucky, he will make achievements. If he is unfortunate, he... " Fang Jifan sighed. He couldn't bear it when he thought that Xu Pengju was still a child!
Seeing that his mentor was like this, Zhu Zaimo couldn't help but sigh: "These are just students' random guesses, like children's plays. Mentors are not as good as mentors... don't take them seriously."
Fang Jifan's expression changed and said seriously: "Any success comes from guesses. If you don't even have any ideas, how can you do big things? If you have ideas and don't dare to achieve them, then how can you succeed? Throughout the dynasties, all those who have accomplished great things have been people who dare to think and do. Zaimo, your identity is different from others. Others can be mediocre, mediocre, or can live a life of death, but you can't. The world will belong to you in the future. If you don't even dare to do it, look forward to the front and back, where will this place be the world?"
Zhu Zaimo suddenly felt awe and said, "What my teacher said is right, it is student Meng Lang."
Fang Jifan smiled with satisfaction and said, "It's just that Xu Pengju is still young, and I don't know if he can suffer this kind of suffering. The Spanish in Luzon have different thoughts. If he fails, he will never be doomed. How could he be willing to send his disciples to die? But if he doesn't let him go, who else will be allowed to go? Xu Pengju, the descendant of the Duke of Wei, will receive the favor of the country in the future, and will inherit the throne and become the most powerful minister."
"The biggest disadvantage of our Ming Dynasty is that after the meritorious service, we have lost our enterprising spirit. We rely on the kindness of our ancestors to eat and wait for death. If so many children of the marquis and uncles in the world are like this, while receiving grace and food, we will be the rich and rich, and we will be drunk and die every day. But those dangerous things are those ordinary children who have not only not received national favors but also worshipped the nobles. In time, the country of our Ming Dynasty will be as dangerous as it is."
"Because of this, what my teacher dislikes the most are those who only know how to eat and drink, sleep soundly all day long, do not diligent in all four bodies, live and die in the five grains, and live and dream and die in the Ming Dynasty. The country of the Ming Dynasty was the ancestors of the emperor's grandson, who led our ancestors to conquer the world. Today, we should not just enjoy wealth and honor. The country should be worthy of the country and the country. This honor has made merits since Xu Pengju."
After hearing this, Zhu Zaimo was shocked.
He didn't even think of this level.
The mentor is the mentor, and he has a lofty vision. He actually wants to use Xu Pengju to reverse the current disadvantages.
He immediately bowed and said sincerely: "The students have been taught."
Fang Jifan smiled and said, "Only you understand my thoughts. OK, I won't say that. It's useless to say more. I just hope that things will go smoothly and Xu Pengju can come back safely."
…………
When Xu Pengju saw his master's wife and saw his happy appearance, Zhu Xiurong felt something unusual and asked him softly: "What's wrong?"
Xu Pengju shook his big head and shook his head, "It's okay, I'm just here to see the master's wife."
As he said that, he said again: "Master's wife, I'm hungry, I want to eat the snacks you made in the past."
Zhu Xiurong gently touched his big head, showing a kind smile, and there was emotion in his eyes.
Xu Pengju has grown up.
But she was still so greedy and delicious. She remembered that Xu Pengju always cried at that time. Only when she ate could she keep her tears in her eyes and not cry.
So she hurriedly responded and immediately took a few maids to make pastries.
Xu Pengju sat upright with joy and began to feast on his face under Zhu Xiurong's gaze. He ate very deliciously. He ate a piece of osmanthus cake in just a few bites. After eating more than a dozen pieces, the maid next to him couldn't help but secretly staring at his bulging belly, and always felt that this belly was different, otherwise how could he hold so much food?
Xu Pengju finally got full, kept burping, got up, and saw the teacher's wife looking at him gently.
He shook his big head and was silent for a long time, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, so he grinned: "Master's wife, I'm leaving."
Zhu Xiurong couldn't help but say, "Silly child, you have just come, you have to leave after eating."
"I'm going to do big things." Xu Pengju said.
Zhu Xiurong frowned and wanted to ask.
Xu Peng raised his hand and waved his hand: "Master's wife, I'm leaving."
As he said, he actually knelt down, his big head hit the ground heavily. After a crisp sound, he stood up and turned around resolutely.
Zhu Xiurong felt that Xu Pengju was very different today and wanted to call him.
In fact, he also wanted to turn around, just like he was the same child as before, and wanted to look for his master's wife to hug him, but his strong body only trembled slightly, and then pretended to be chic again. This time, he left.
…………
The next morning.
It seemed as if I was afraid that Xu Pengju would regret it.
Someone stuffed Xu Pengju into the carriage and sent it to Tianjin Port.
Here, a ship had been waiting for a long time, and Xu Pengju was almost blocked onto the ship again.
When he was about to board the boat, he remembered: "I thought about it and thought that I should go back and say something to my master's wife. This sentence is very important."
The one who accompanied him was the guards of Xishan, who were protecting him all the way, and the one who led the head was Fang Jifan's personal guard Hu Zi.
Hu Zi pulled him and dragged him onto the boat, panting, "I've come here, what can I say in the future? Come on, get on the boat soon, the boat will be anchored Yang Fan."
The ship... gradually left the dock.
Hu Zi and others looked at the big head exposed on the bow of the ship and kept looking at the land, but the big head was getting farther and farther away, Hu Zi breathed a sigh of relief and took the people back to report his life.
…………
The voyage is lonely.
Even though this person is honest and can endure this loneliness, Xu Pengju feels it is difficult to endure every day.
He held his big head and looked very melancholy. Fortunately, Luzon was not far away, and he arrived in just over twenty days.
The ship had already contacted people in a nearby water area and sent a small boat to move Xu Pengju to the small boat. Then, Yang Fan, a ship from the Ming Dynasty, left with the wind.
Xu Pengju took a boat to a pier in Luzon, which was the building of Franc. The Spanish had been operating here for a long time and established trade points, manors, and piers here.
As soon as he landed, he was investigated.
At that time, the children in these nursery schools received language training from Franc prisoners.
So Xu Pengju directly expressed his identity in the stuttering Franji language: "I am the prince of the Wei Kingdom of the Ming Dynasty. I was ordered to come here and bring you a letter."
He took out the letter, which was written by Zhu Zaimo himself.
The guards were a little confused when they heard this.
In Luzon, there was never a messenger from the Ming Dynasty.
So he was immediately imprisoned, and soon the letter fell into the hands of Alfonso, the governor of Luzon.
Alfonso got the letter and opened it and saw that the letter was full of threatening words, and there were no good words. It showed that the Ming Navy was determined to hunt Luzon. Alfonsoton felt a headache. The situation in the West was becoming more and more worrying.
Whether it was the Spanish in Luzon or the Portuguese in Java and Sumatra, they all deeply felt the increasingly serious threat from the Ming navy.
In particular, His Highness the King has launched an attack on the northern provinces, and the Ming Dynasty and Spain have no longer even maintained the superficial peace.
Under such circumstances, Luzon became in danger.
However, this is the outpost of the New World, which is of great importance. Therefore, Spain has sent more troops here in the past few years. Not only that, it has also allocated special fleets and even built more fortresses for emergencies.
And now... what is coming is finally here.
Alfonso stood up and looked at his servant: "Where is the man?"
“Detained in prison.”
Afangsuo narrowed his eyes, and his eyes showed a coldness: "He is the son of Duke Wei, the son of the duke who had the second capital in the world?"
"Yes."
Afangsuo said: "He is a nobleman, and we should treat him with courtesy, but since they are pagans, we do not recognize his aristocratic status."
He said firmly, then said, "Come with me."
Xu Pengju was imprisoned in a water prison. The water prison was very wet and muddy everywhere.
He cut his hands back and was hung up, feeling that his wrist had almost been broken by the rope.
So he grinned in pain, fortunately his breathing was very even. Based on his years of experience in being beaten, the pain could be slowly relieved according to his even breathing.
Immediately afterwards, many Francophones began to come in. The leaders wore beautiful triangular hats and military uniforms, and there were a wide range of badges on the uniforms.
The man stood straight and said, "I heard that you can speak Spanish?"
