Chapter 283 Who wants to live forever?

After seeing the treasure ship sailing away from the dock and disappearing in front of him, everyone on the dock breathed a sigh of relief. At that moment, five or six naval generals ran to Zhu Di to ask for orders, saying that they would lead the warship and go to chase the white-haired man.

You are so filial, why did you all pretend to be dead just now? Now that you see others leaving, you are alive one by one... Zhu Di cursed in his heart, but he also understood in his heart that these generals of the navy combined were not as good as Wu Mian's casual breathing.

"Forget it, let them go, I... don't care... I'm tired, go back..." Zhu Di waved his hands to the generals around him, and then continued, "Save all the people floating on the sea and bring Zheng He over. I have something to ask him. There is also a young master, please come with him."

After saying that, surrounded by the guards, Zhu Di returned to his luxurious carriage. Not long after, Yao Guangxiao and Zheng He were taken to the emperor's carriage. Zhu Di personally helped Yao Guangxiao to the carriage, then smiled bitterly at the monk and said, "I offended the young master just now. I hope that the young master will not be skeptical about me for the sake of your and my brothers in the Jingnan Battle. I have been polite to the young master..."

"What did Your Majesty say? Thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of the king." Yao Guangxiao hurriedly grabbed the emperor who was about to salute him, and then smiled and said, "Your Majesty, don't scare the monk, otherwise the Buddha would blame the monk."

After sighing, Zhu Di continued, "I didn't expect that I was sincere, but I could not get a little bit of Wu Mianxian leaned over. I don't understand why Wu Mianxian was so concerned about Zhu Yunwen. Didn't it mean that gods cannot interfere with the country's destiny?"

After a smile, Yao Guangxiao said, "Zhu Yunwen was the emperor for three generations. His first two lives were Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Western Han Dynasty, and Liu Xiu, founding Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Both of these emperors had friendship with Wu Mian, especially Liu Xiu, Emperor Guangwu of the Eastern Han Dynasty. If it were not for Wu Mian and Gui Bugui, the world might not have fallen into his hands. Wu Mian had a relationship with Zhu Yunwen for three generations, so he helped him."

Zhu Di's mouth opened his mouth when he heard it. This mythical story was told from the monk's mouth, and he couldn't believe it. However, Zhu Di still couldn't figure it out. After sighing, he continued to say to Yao Guangxiao: "Why didn't the young master tell me earlier? I'm also a little prepared..."

"If the monk had long said that Emperor Jianwen was Liu Che, Liu Xiu's reincarnation, would you still be in peace?" Yao Guangxiao smiled and looked at Zhu Di, and continued, "Your Majesty had only 20% chance of winning since the reincarnation. Later, he defended Beiping and incorporated the three guards of Duoyan, so he had a 20% chance of winning. Later, His Majesty advanced all the way to the capital in Shandong, and the maximum chance of winning was only 60%. As long as he heard that Emperor Jianwen was the reincarnation of two wise monarchs, His Majesty was panicked, and now it might be another result... The monk hesitated for a while, and it would be better not to say it."

Zhu Di thought about it in his heart, and it was really the same as Yao Guangxiao said. At the beginning of Jingnan, if he knew that Zhu Yunwen was a reincarnated by two generations of wise kings, he might have no intention of fighting and would have surrendered early. The emperor smiled bitterly and continued to say to the monk: "The young master is right. If I had known that Yunwen had been this identity, there might not be Jingnan at all. Now I feel a little scared..."

When he said this, Zhu Di saw that Yao Guangxiao was a little tired. He personally took the cushion from his side and asked the monk to rest on the cushion. At this time, he didn't say that he could find a temple nearby for Yao Guangxiao to stay in the local area. Zhu Di called Zhu Gaochi, who was serving outside the carriage, and asked him to prepare. Yao Guangxiao wanted to follow them back to Beijing.

After talking about Yao Guangxiao, Zhu Di turned to Zheng He who didn't even dare to say anything after getting in the car, "You are not blamed for today's business, you have tried your best. Even if I am on the treasure ship, I will not be much better than you. It seems that I have no fate to meet my nephew... This time you have been on a mission to Western countries, and I will grant you a garrison in Nanjing. Before moving the capital to Beijing, I will give you all my wealth and life to Zheng He..."

I originally thought that when the duck that was on the verge of his mouth flew away this time, Zhu Di would definitely be furious. Maybe he would even take his official position to the end. It would be good if he could save his life. Zheng He, the garrison in Nanjing, didn't even dare to think about it. Unexpectedly, he would be promoted to the next level and become the garrison in the capital this time.

At that moment, Zheng He hurriedly knelt in front of Zhu Di, kowtowed repeatedly and said, "Thank you for your grace, but Zheng He failed this time and dared not accept such great grace from Your Majesty. Zheng He committed the most ineffective work, and he will repay His Majesty's punishment..."

"Ineffective? If I punish you, then there are one person on the dock today. Who can escape, including me?" Zhu Di waved his hand and continued, "A few days after returning to the capital, and then prepare to go to Western countries for the second time..."

Zheng He did not expect that he would have a chance to go to the West. He was stunned for a moment, and then thanked the emperor for his gratitude. After hearing Zhu Di's words, Yao Guangxiao opened his eyes again, looked at Zhu Di strangely, and said, "Your Majesty will send a fleet to the West again? Something happened just now, so I am afraid that something is wrong with the West again."

"There is nothing wrong. I have become the leader of the Ming Dynasty and I will always tell the Western countries." Zhu Di smiled softly and continued, "The contact with Western countries was cut off during the previous dynasty, and this time it was just right. And now everyone is saying that my throne is not the right one, so I will always send someone to explain, right?"

After saying that, the emperor gently patted the monk on the shoulder and continued, "Don't worry, Young Master, I dare not do it again after seeing Wu Mianxian's ability this time. But the mission to the West has begun, and I have to continue."

"I hope the monk is thinking too much..." Yao Guangxiao said this, paused for a moment, and continued to say to Zhu Di: "Your Majesty, the monk is weak and may not bear the long-distance suffering. Please be kind to your Majesty and allow the monk to find a temple to rest nearby, and take care of his body and head to the capital."

Zhu Di did not refuse Yao Guangxiao this time, and immediately asked Ji Gang, the commander of the Jinyiwei, to select the smart and capable Jinyiwei to serve Yao Guangxiao. He found a Baoen Temple nearby and asked Yao Guangxiao to rest in it. Zhu Di also left a carriage and a large sum of silver and money, and waited until the monk was well maintained before returning to the capital.

After watching Yao Guangxiao being taken to another carriage, Zhu Di's smile froze on his face, then he looked at Zheng He and continued: "This time you go on a mission to Western countries. If you see Zhu Yunwen again, you don't need to arrest someone and just settle it on the spot..."

Zheng He grew up with Zhu Di, and he guessed that his master would probably have this idea. However, Zheng He was not Yao Guangxiao and did not dare to resist the order. He could only accept Zhu Di's oral orders. After seeing him respond, Zhu Di called Ji Gang, who had been serving outside the carriage, into the carriage.

Zhu Di did not look at the commander of the Jinyiwei as kind as Yao Guangxiao. He said to Ji Gang with a calm face: "I asked you to investigate. Guan Wuming, the disciple of the young master, found his trace?"

Just as the monarch and ministers were talking in the carriage, far away on the treasure ship on the sea, Wu Mian took out a small cloth pocket from his arms, and then said to the pirates who were sailing far away: "Who do you want to live forever?"

Wu Mian's voice was not loud, but everyone present could clearly hear what he said. These pirates had seen the methods of the white-haired man. For a moment, everyone did not react to what the white-haired man said, and looked at each other and couldn't understand what the white-haired man said about immortality.
