"What the lord taught is that the teacher passed away early, and there is no one to urge him. It is inevitable that the boy will be slack in the past few months!"
In such a situation, you can't reason with your elders, quibble, and find all kinds of excuses. Following their words, retreating is the best choice. This is what Li Zexuan summed up in countless "struggles". experience!
"Haha, Ruzi can be taught!"
Li Xiaogong's outrageous laughter shot into the sky, he patted Li Zexuan's shoulder and said, "This king knows that you have been appointed by His Majesty to serve in the Imperial College, but you also have to take time to practice martial arts! Uh...cough cough, this king is a bit overly concerned. Don't blame me, boy!"
When Li Xiaogong was talking, he realized that he was not here to teach, but something else, which made him feel a little embarrassed for a while.
"What did the lord say, you can mention a little boy, the boy is already grateful! Please use tea! Uncle Qin, you also use tea!"
Although Li Zexuan murmured in his heart, he calmly poured a cup of tea for the two of them and served it himself.
After taking the tea cup, Qin Qiong began to talk about the main topic.
"Xiao Xuan, the old man and the prince are here for the purpose of going south to exchange food. There are some things that the prince needs to ask you in person. I hope you can answer truthfully. Some things are related to the lives of tens of thousands of soldiers! "
Li Xiaogong also nodded and said, "Uncle Bao is right. You mentioned the locust plague prophecy, and you came up with the three strategies for locust control. After thinking about it, this king still thinks it's better to ask your client!"
Li Zexuan had already anticipated it, and cupped his hands: "If you have anything, please feel free to ask, the boy must know everything and say everything!"
"it is good!"
Li Xiaogong pondered for a moment, his sharp eyes stayed on Li Zexuan's face for a while, and said, "Boy, you told Your Majesty that there would be a locust plague in June next year. Since His Majesty and several important ministers believe in you, then the old man will also I believe you for the time being, but how did you know that the Nanyang Small Congress is rich in food, because you have also been out to sea?"
Li Zexuan felt Li Xiaogong's sharp gaze, he didn't dare to hesitate any more, the relevant thoughts flashed in his mind, and he replied: "My teacher did take the boy to travel around the world in his later years, and he has been to the small Nanyang country several times. The local customs and customs of the place have a little understanding, and they were really amazed at the three crops of rice in that place at that time!"
"Then how did you get out of the sea?"
Li Xiaogong then asked.
"A merchant ship, a medium-sized merchant ship about seven or eight zhang long and more than ten zhang wide, my teacher and I entered the Yangtze River from Yuezhou (the Yangtze River was referred to as Jiang in ancient times, and only after the Six Dynasties, that is, after the Sui Dynasty, did it become known as the Great River and the Yangtze River). , down the river, passing through Ezhou, Hongzhou, Xuanzhou, and entering the East China Sea from Yangzhou. Due to the small size of the merchant ships, they cannot withstand too much wind and waves. Our ships sailed not far from the coast. Going south, we crossed Liuqiu (taiwan was called Liuqiu in the Tang Dynasty, that's right) into the South China Sea, and finally Master and I arrived in Myanmar, and after traveling around the South China Sea countries for two months, Master and I turned back the same way."
You don't need money for bragging, and you don't blink when you tell a lie. This is Li Zexuan's current state. There's no way to tell the truth. Li Xiaogong must not believe it. If he doesn't want to go, he'll be finished. He didn't talk nonsense, it was a route he had thought through.
Li Xiaogong touched the three-inch beard on his lower jaw and fell into deep thought. He had never been to the sea, so he naturally didn't know whether what Li Zexuan said was true or not.
"Then, can you draw a chart for the king? To be honest, although this king has commanded the navy for many times, he has never been to the sea. As for the risks at sea, this king has only heard about it, but never experienced it. With accurate nautical charts, the team going south will experience much less risk."
Li Xiaogong thought about it for a long time, but did not find any loopholes in Li Zexuan's words, so he revealed the most important purpose of his trip.
Li Zexuan thought about it seriously. In his previous life, his geography was very good. After he was divided into science in high school, he once complained about why science students didn't study geography and wanted to study biology, which is really a pit! Now, with his perverted mental power, it should be no problem to recall a rough sea map. At most, I will ask others what some places were called in the Tang Dynasty, and it is related to the lives of tens of thousands of people. This map Must be painted!
"The boy is willing to help. The lord can go back and stay for two days. After the boy has finished drawing, he will send someone to send the chart to the palace. In these two days, the boy will try his best to recall and ensure that the chart is as detailed and accurate as possible!"
Li Xiaogong said politely with a smile on his face: "Then there is Lao Xiaoxuan!"
Li Zexuan didn't dare, he hesitated for a moment, then slowly said: "My lord, in fact, there are several aspects about sailing, the boy thinks that the lord must pay attention, otherwise the crew and soldiers will be damaged a lot."
"Oh~? Then Xiaoxuan, hurry up, if it makes sense, this king will definitely do it!"
Li Xiaogong held the teacup in his hand, suddenly stopped, and said hurriedly.
Li Zexuan nodded secretly, Li Xiaogong's performance shows that he really loves soldiers like a son, otherwise he would not be so polite to himself as a corporal.
"First, the fleet should bring enough fresh water and food. I won't say this. As a leading general, the prince can think of it. Second, the fleet must travel not far along the coast. In this way, on the one hand, When encountering strong winds and waves, the fleet can dock to take shelter from the wind. On the other hand, when the fleet supply is insufficient, it can also dock at any time for replenishment.
Third, all the crew members must eat fruit every day. The tutor once said that if the crew members on ocean voyages do not eat fresh fruits for a long time, they will suffer from septicemia.
, in severe cases will lose lives. "
"Hi~!"
Qin Qiong and Li Xiaogong took a deep breath.
"Is there such a thing?"
Li Xiaogong looked in disbelief.
Li Zexuan nodded with certainty, and said, "This is indeed the case. The teacher was also a master of medicine and Taoism before his death. Uncle Qin and the prince should believe what he said, right?"
"Believe it, the old man certainly believes it."
Qin Qiong nodded and said. Li Zexuan's half-hearted medical skills can cure his disease, how could Qin Qiong not believe that Li Zexuan's master's medical skills are brilliant?
"This king also believed it, and then I will do as you said."
"Well, fourth, ocean voyage is a very lonely and lonely thing. Long-term loneliness can easily cause mental problems. Many sailors did not die of wind and waves, nor died of septicemia. Dying from a mental disorder means losing your mind. So the boy hopes that on the one hand, the prince can organize more crew members to communicate with each other, and on the other hand, let the crew go ashore to rest and rest while they are docking for supplies."
"This kind of thing, this king has heard of it, but I didn't expect your knowledge to be quite broad!"
Li Xiaogong rubbed his chin and said in admiration.
"The prince has won the prize, the fifth..."
