"Why should I send you back? I have 670 ships here, and every one of them has their own mission. I don't have a ship to send Third Miss back to the heavens!”
Zhu Xiongying said firmly.
Xu Miaojin sighed in boredom.”
"Aiyo, Third Miss Xu, is there anyone in this world who dares to imprison you? You've lived enough!" Zhu Xiongying shrugged. He would never admit to such a thing even if he was beaten to death.
Xu Miaojin's brows were tightly knitted. Her words were clear and sharp as she said,"Then you won't let me go? Now, immediately, prepare the ship. I want to answer the heavens!”
"Even if it doesn't work out, they're still loading fresh water. No one can send Third Miss Xu back to the sky. Moreover, we should set sail in less than fifteen minutes!”
Let her go? Dream on! This was a rare opportunity. If he didn't grasp it now, could he wait until he ascended the throne to publicly defy the imperial edict and reject the marriage?
Shrugging his shoulders, Zhu Xiongying stood up and said,""I still have something to do. If Third Miss Xu feels stuffy in the cabin, you can go on the sampan.”
Suddenly, Xu Miaojin stood up and caught up with Zhu Xiongying. She grabbed Zhu Xiongying's wrist and wanted to question him.
Why did he refuse to return to Ying Tian when there was a chance?
However, her steps were too big. Perhaps it was because she was in a hurry, she slipped and fell on Zhu Xiongying. Damn it, the boat shook violently.
Zhu Xiongying was lying on the deck while Xu Miaojin was pressing her hands on the deck. The ship shook violently, causing the two of them to slide out.
Bang ~
Zhu Xiongying's eyes were sharp and his hands were fast. He pressed Xu Miaojin's head against his chest with both hands, and the back of his hand slid along the bed.
Although he didn't see any blood, the burning pain lingered for a long time.
However, Zhu Xiongying did not have time to react to this sudden movement. The two of them followed the bed board and crashed into the wooden wall of the cabin.
Dong dong ~
Zhu Xiongying's left side of his body slammed into the wooden board, and he grimaced in pain.
"Hu, hu, hu ~" Zhu Xiong Ying panted heavily.
Xu Miaojin's face was slightly red. She quickly got up and knocked against the bottom of the bed with Zhu Xiongying's left hand.
Bang!
"Don't move, ancestor!" Zhu Xiong Ying quickly said.”
"If I don't move just because you told me to, wouldn't I lose face?”Xu Miaojin raised her head again. Zhu Xiongying's arm was numb from the impact.
How could he have the strength to hold her down? Xu Miaojin kept bumping into the bed frame with her head raised. She did move, but Zhu Xiongying's hand was the unlucky one.
"Who told you not to prepare a ship for me? Who told you not to send me back to the heavens!”
"Serves you right!"
Xu Miaojin crawled out from under the bed. Coincidentally, Zhu Gaochi, Zhu Quan, and Zhu Zhi walked over one after another and saw Xu Miaojin with disheveled hair and disheveled clothes.
Looking at Zhu Xiongying who was grimacing under the bed, the three of them quickly turned around.
"Nephew, why didn't you tell me beforehand? Uncle Fifteen thought you were okay!”
Zhu Quan said with a smile.
Zhu Xiongying climbed out from under the bed with difficulty. The boat had already stabilized. Zhu Xiongying took a deep breath and said,"Did you set sail just now?"
"That's right. Otherwise, why would there be such a huge shake?”Zhu Zhi said.
"Let's go, let's go!" Zhu Xiong Ying looked at Zhu Zhi and Zhu Quan and kept looking at Xu Miaojin, making her feel embarrassed.
She hurriedly shouted and pushed the two uncles and Zhu Gaochi out.
After closing the wooden door, Zhu Xiongying said," Ah! Ah! It hurts! It hurts! Don't touch it!"”Zhu Xiongying slapped the back of Zhu Zhi's hand.
When this guy saw the wound on Zhu Xiongying's hand, he couldn't help but rub it.
Zhu Xiongying swore that he never wanted to experience that sour feeling again.
It was truly terrifying.
......
"He can't really be in that much pain, right?”Xu Miaojin clutched her chest with both hands, her expression grave.
Thinking back to what had just happened, a hint of joy appeared in his heart.
However, at this moment, the ship continued to sail. As the chief officer, Zhu Xiongying still had to survey the direction, identify the position, and command the fleet. He had no time to chat with Xu Miaojin.
Standing on the sampan, Zhu Xiongying said with a heavy expression,""We're almost at the junction of Japan and Korea!”
"Japan? Isn't that the fief you want to give your fifteenth uncle? He's actually so far away from Big Ming!"
Zhu Quan paused and said.
They set off from Yingtian and went all the way north to the Liaodong Bay. They picked up Zhu Gaochi and sailed along the Liaodong Bay towards the Koryo Sea.
It took them a month and a half to reach Jeju Island.
Right now, it was already the 21st year of Hongwu, and the people far away in the Ying Tian Prefecture had already celebrated the new year.
The poor uncle and nephew were still on the sea, not knowing when they would reach their destination.
"Flag! Order the front troops to turn the helm to the right and turn the cannon to the right! All the cannons on the warship were lit up and loaded!”
Zhu Xiong Ying's flagship was the largest and tallest in the entire fleet. It required 4,000 people to move it once it set sail. Its size was obvious.
As the saying went, the higher one stood, the farther one could see.
Although Zhu Xiong Ying was in the middle of the army and was a thousand meters away from the front line, he could already see the Japanese islands.
"Nephew, what are you doing?”Zhu Zhi was puzzled.
"Just wait and see!" Zhu Xiongying smiled and continued,"Banner soldiers, order the middle army to turn to the right and prepare to turn. Show the cannon on the right and load!”
"Send an order to the frontline army. If they see any land or islands, don't leave any shells for Tai Sun.”After Zhu Xiong Ying said that, the messenger replied.
He led the entire fleet of soldiers to shout together. Immediately after, all the soldiers on the ships shouted.
