Chapter 1,439 Evidence

Some people pointed out that according to historical records, when Zhou Wu destroyed the Shang Dynasty, Youhou Xi, the Huaiyi general at that time, was leading the Yin Shang army to attack Dongyi.

After that, there is no record of this army in history. It is only said that Youhou Xi led the survivors of the Yin and Shang Dynasties to cross the "Floating Bridge of Heaven" eastward and went to another place.

Wang Anshi pointed out in Jiangning Mansion that there was a record in "Zuo Zhuan: The Sixteenth Year of Duke Xi": "Six hawks retreated and flew over the capital of Song Dynasty".

However, a bird that can "retreat" has never been found in China. This time, among the products brought back by Bian Guan and others from Dongsheng Prefecture, there is a honeyeater that can retreat and stop in the air.

This shows that the descendants of the Yin people at that time may have had contact with the Central Plains and brought back Dongshengzhou honeyeaters that were enough to show off in the Central Plains.

And Liu Xun cited the "Bamboo Book Annals", which records that the Xia Dynasty ordered Jiuyi to hunt in the sea and catch big fish. This was the northern route that Bian Guan and his companions chose to set off.

Su Shi quoted the record in "The Book of Songs: Songs of Shang", "The Prime Minister is fierce, and there is interception overseas." "Xiangtu" refers to the eleventh generation monarch of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.

During the Yin and Shang Dynasties, the Central Plains dynasty already had overseas territories.

And this time the flat jar comes from Toltec, bah, what a stupid name, Jade Mill City!

This time the flat jar also brought back two jade carvings and two engraved jade guis from the temple in Yushu City. The jade guis had Chinese characters on them!

After Sima Guang's interpretation, the text on the first block should be "厎娀翟翟", while the second block should be "妣信十三 show the earth".

Yu Zhai is the eldest daughter of the Yu family and the ancestor of the Yin Shang Dynasty. Emperor Gaoxin is the great-grandson of the Yellow Emperor and an ancestor of the Yin Shang Dynasty!

The Twelve Shitu are the Twelve Sheshes, and the "Twelve Shishes" are the ancestor worship system of the Yin and Shang Dynasties.

So this is the jade guide used by local people to worship their ancestors Yu Zhai and Gao Xin!

The clothes and hairstyles of those two beauties are also very close to the images of beauties unearthed from Yin Ruins!

Han Chunyan is also an archaeological expert. He pointed out that the local temple shape, human sacrifice customs, and the use of animal images to divide army flags are very close to the style of the Shang and Zhou Dynasties.

There is also the totem image of the dragon, as well as the wind, rain, clouds, harvest and other divine functions governed by the local dragon god, which are all very similar to the Chinese dragons!

In addition, there are also many records in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and "The Classic of Divine Miracles" that seemed absurd before, but now they have their origins. They describe the land that is so far away.

So the Hanlin Academy started a fuss - so much evidence, isn't it enough?

The Duke of Shu firmly believes that the nation that pursues Chinese civilization is the Chinese nation. Xixia, Dali, Jiaozhi, Japan, Goryeo and the southern part of the Liao Kingdom should all be included in the circle of Chinese civilization.

This is what Han Changli called "When the barbarians enter China? Then China will."

However, Dongsheng Prefecture civilization, which has so many traces of China, is still said to be debatable. Is this looking down on other people's backwardness?

In the eyes of calm and pragmatic scholars, these are all nonsensical nonsense. The characters on those jade guis are all similar to the Chinese characters, and can only be regarded as coincidences at best.

But even Chen Zhaoming, the top scholar in the Song Dynasty, could not produce strong evidence to refute his son. On the contrary, a bunch of old Dong Heng from the Hanlin Academy were as excited as if they had been given chicken blood.

Chen Zhaoming weakly cited the fact that there were no bronzes in the local area and the Yin and Shang bronzes were extremely developed as a rebuttal. However, they were refuted by Lao Dongheng. Mr. Chen Ziming said that it might be between the first civilization period and the second civilization period.

There has been dating, and with those magnificent buildings, we can definitely infer that metal processing tools once appeared there!

But after the collapse of the first civilization, all the metal tools were rusted and lost in the jungle? Or they were still buried deep in the ground and have not been excavated.

The most powerful blow comes from astronomical data. Chen Zhaoming has to admit this? The astronomical records of the Yushu people are quite complete, even surpassing the records kept in the Central Plains? This shows that the importance of astronomy in that civilization is the same as that of the Chinese civilization.

Chen Zhaoming has a mouthful of old blood in his stomach and can't spit it out? Does he pay attention to astronomy? Is that the instinct of every farming nation? Otherwise, how would they know when to sow?

In the end, Zhao Xu came out to confirm? We all still need to learn from the academically modest and prudent family tradition of Bachelor Zhaoming. After all, the chair boy is still young. This is the first time that I have crossed the ocean and arrived at the other side. It is convincing.

It's a little lacking, which is understandable.

But this is not difficult. We just need to send more ships and more people to continue to understand it in depth, right?

Then everyone bowed together, Your Majesty is wise.

So Zhao Xu immediately asked the next question, should we reward this great discovery? If so, how should we reward it?

Bian Guan's current court minister, Wen Sanguan, is in the seventh rank; because Su Xiaomei, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager's favor, favored the chair earlier, he is now Tongzhilang, and Wensanguan is in the sixth rank.

This official rank is already quite high. If he were to be promoted further, he might end up on Su You's current path.

So everyone raised objections, saying that he could no longer be promoted, or at least, he could no longer be promoted to a civil servant.

Cai Que suggested: "Since we are not going to be promoted to a civil rank, why not give him a post? Drop him two levels and give him a real job. The general will serve as a supervisor. Ordnance Supervisor is quite suitable."

Zhao Xu remembered that the two children also had talents in weapon design, and Cai Que's suggestion was reasonable. Although the two positions were at the eighth rank, they were already one level higher than the prime minister's conferment.

However, when he was fourteen or twelve, he received the post of a Beijing official, which was a rare honor.

Moreover, during this great voyage, one of the flat cans and the other chair showed their management ability and the other showed their design ability. Cai Que’s suggestion can be said to be stable and considerate of the opinions of all parties, so there is nothing much to say.

However, there is some trouble and sensitivity regarding Zhao Xiaoyi's appointment.

It’s not easy to arrange Prince Kuo’s son...

Seeing that all the officials were silent, Zhao Xu said directly: "Then I will be promoted to the observation envoy of Xiong Prefecture and return to the Jiyi Department to know the affairs of Hebei. He is obviously a talented person, but he insists on being dissolute..."

"Hehehe... I want to make a rice insect, but I haven't even asked me if I agree."

This can be regarded as a special blessing. This kid has a bad criminal record. He once worked for the Military Aircraft Department and the Aircraft Department and found out about Hebei and escaped from the job. This time, he was pushed back to his original position by Zhao Xu.

This was also Zhao Xu's consideration. On the surface, the royal family of the Song Dynasty would always be brothers, friends, respectful to younger brothers, loving mothers and filial sons. Zhao Xu would never give any excuse to be afraid of his younger brothers in this regard.

…

Cao Wang Palace.

Zhao Xiaoyi looked at the red palace door, sighed, and walked inside.

The steward of the palace hurriedly came over and said, "Observation, the prince is in the study, waiting for you for a long time."

Zhao Xiaoyi rolled his eyes at the steward: "You old dog, the news is not fast."

The steward smiled shyly and said: "The young master has earned some face and glory for the prince. You don't know that during the days when you went to sea, the prince stayed behind closed doors and sighed every day. He missed the young master very much...

…”

I heard an angry shout in the study: "I hope he will die at sea as soon as possible! Xiao Qian, what are you doing in Hu Qin?! Let this evil beast get out of here!"

Zhao Xiaoyi stepped into the study: "My father's words have offended the Duke of Shu, Shi Xianqing, Bachelor Zhaoming, and Su Shanchang. When it comes to my father's ability to put himself in danger, my son is the first to admire him." .”

After saying that, he bowed politely to Zhao Kai: "Father, the child is back and he is here to receive his punishment."

"You!" When Zhao Kai saw his son's laziness, he rushed up with anger. He could see that his son's skin color had turned into a bronze color, and he looked much stronger. He thought that he didn't know this all year. After experiencing so many dangers and hardships at sea, I couldn't help but sit down with a long sigh: "I can't control you anymore. You can come and leave when you want to this family. But don't forget your identity, you... Are you trying to trick our whole family to death?"

"If His Majesty hadn't been merciful, how could your father have been able to cover up your crime of leaving the capital without authorization and escaping overseas?"

Zhao Xiaoyi chuckled: "Father, isn't it because my son is so naughty and naughty just to add some stain to your old man? Do you want to learn from your second uncle to spread the party members and become the wise king of the Song Dynasty?"

Zhao Kai was so frightened that he was terrified: "This is still in the palace! How dare you talk so nonsense?! You...you..."

Zhao Xiaoyi shook his head: "Father still hasn't seen through. If you believe my son for once, please go to His Majesty and ask yourself to go out."

"Stop talking nonsense!" Zhao Kai subconsciously glanced outside the study: "Your imperial grandmother is ignoring you? Besides, your second uncle didn't move, it's my turn to move?"
