Rebirth of the Four Seas Emperor

After listening to Sebastian's words, Hou Yao felt that this was really ridiculous, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed reasonable.

The two most powerful kingdoms in Europe are now Spain and Portugal, and it was the Portuguese who officially started the Age of Discovery.

If Spain wants to become the strongest, Portugal is the biggest obstacle, but the two sides are actually of the same origin.

Sebastian himself made a big mistake and gave Felipe II such a God-given opportunity. If he could not take advantage of it, he would not be worthy of becoming a hero.

"Your Majesty, since you were captured by Spain, why are you here thousands of miles away?"

Sebastian thanked Hou Yao and said:

"Actually, I should be grateful to Mr. Hou for being able to escape this time. After I was captured by my uncle, I was not killed by him. Instead, he sent me to Manila thousands of miles away. The person in charge of guarding me was Diego Longquillo. This After Diego Ronquillo was promoted to governor, he sent the main force of the Spanish navy in Asia to Daxia, but was completely defeated.

After Diego Ronquillo returned to Manila, he caused a chaos. The local Spanish nobles united to punish him. However, Diego Ronquillo refused to surrender. With the help of Daxia native Li Jingfeng, he followed These nobles started a big battle, and in the end the nobles were defeated by Li Jingfeng. They thought that the final victory belonged to Diego Longquillo, but they didn't expect that Li Jingfeng suddenly killed him.

At the same time, the city lord of Manila was also killed. Li Jingfeng carried out a large-scale purge of the Spanish forces in Manila. Manila was in chaos. In the chaos, I followed the Spanish priest’s ship and fled to Oyster Mirror, where I met the Portuguese compatriots. Finally rescued, and also learned about the current situation in Portugal.

Antonio convened a coalition of British, French and Dutch forces, but they were all defeated by his uncle's Spanish Armada, which showed that Europe no longer had the power to fight Spain. However, your Excellency was able to defeat Diego Ronquillo's main Spanish force, which showed that your Excellency was capable. In order to fight against Spain's ability, I ask your Excellency to help us Portuguese to regain our country. Portugal is willing to be friends with Daxia forever. "

Hou Yao smiled awkwardly. This was not something that a small magistrate like him could do:

"I understand what your Majesty means, but Your Majesty values ​​my rights too much. I am just a small magistrate of Bao'an County. Although Bao'an County is larger than Portugal, it is just a remote area for Daxia. A remote place.

I have no right to reach any effective agreement with you on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor of our country. You can only go to the capital to see His Majesty the Emperor. Whether you can convince His Majesty the Emperor depends entirely on your ability. "

Sebastian looked at Francis with a disappointed look on his face, and Francis bowed deeply to Hou Yao and said:

"Sir, the capital is too far away, and it is rumored that the Emperor of Daxia is very repulsive to the Francois. He must not easily help foreigners thousands of miles away. There are rumors that you have a close relationship with Her Royal Highness. I wonder if you can do it for me. Let’s introduce Her Highness the Princess. Her Highness the Princess should have the authority to reach an agreement with us on behalf of the Daxia royal family, right?”

Hou Yao smiled bitterly:

"I'm very sorry. Even if you meet Her Royal Highness, I'm afraid she doesn't have the power to make any decisions on behalf of the royal family. The system of our dynasty is very different from yours. Only male members of the royal family have certain rights to exercise power on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor. Moreover, The Toungoo dynasty of Myanmar is invading our border in Yunnan, and Her Royal Highness the Princess has already led her troops to help, and I cannot contact her."

"I heard that His Highness King Xi has a very close relationship with you, can you please introduce him to us?"

"His Royal Highness King Yin is currently commanding the army in Myanmar to resist the invasion of the Toungoo army. In fact, I will soon go out to conquer the Toungoo Dynasty by water. So what you are talking about, I am afraid that even if you meet His Highness King Yin, he will also I have more ambition but less strength, so it is difficult to agree to your request."

Sebastian's eyes were full of disappointment, and Francis's eyes were even more sorrowful.

Now Hou Yao has become their last life-saving straw. Apart from him, it is impossible for any other force to dare to be the enemy of Spain, let alone Spain's opponent.

When Francis heard the word Taungoo, he felt that it was very familiar. After thinking for a long time, he finally remembered something, but he was not sure about it, so he asked:

"Sir, there is Toungu City in Indochina. The city lord Mang Ruiti and I are old acquaintances. The Toungu Dynasty you are talking about is not Toungu City, right?"

Hou Yao smiled:

"That shouldn't be wrong, but now he is no longer the Lord of Toungoo City. The Toungoo Dynasty has become the most powerful dynasty in Indochina."

Francis seemed relieved and said:

"If it is really the Toungoo dynasty, then I can help Da Dang as a guide. 50 years ago, the lord of Toungoo defeated the Baigu dynasty by hiring us Portuguese talents. Later, we built the Famosa Castle in Managa before withdrawing. The war in Indochina, but there are still many compatriots employed by them. We can quickly help you defeat the Toungoo Dynasty, and I kindly ask you to introduce His Highness King Tao to us after defeating the Toungoo Dynasty."

Hou Yao lowered his head and pondered for a long time. In fact, what he wanted to do more was to drive the Portuguese and Spanish out of Asia.

It's just that with his current strength, he is still unable to fight against all the Western kingdoms. It is undoubtedly a good choice to pull half and fight half.

More importantly, he doesn't dare to take all his strength out too far now, for fear that the domestic situation will change drastically, and it will be uncomfortable if someone raids his lair.

Besides, there is a Yao family constraining them. If anything happens to them, it will be a disaster if they lead their troops outside.

It was really difficult to handle. After thinking for a long time, I finally decided to deal with the Toungoo Dynasty as quickly as possible before talking about anything else.

"Okay, after defeating the Toungoo Dynasty, I can introduce you to His Highness King Tan."

Sebastian and Francis immediately said gratefully:

"Thank you, sir..."

……

At the beginning of June, the government servant who went to deliver the letter came back.

The yamen servant did not meet the princess and Zhu Liang'ao's people on the road, but directly found King Tan.After handing the letter to Queen Xi, he set off back.At the same time, he also brought back good news:

The Burmese army invaded again, captured Mengmi, and surrounded Wuzhang City. Gao Guochun (the Great Xia military system, a person who commanded 500 troops is called the General) led [-] people to rescue and defeated [-] enemy troops. King Tan, Liu Wei, Deng Zilong and other generals are leading troops to recover vast areas such as Mubang, Mengyang, and Manmo. The chieftains in the border areas have returned to the Daxia court. It seems that the war on the Myanmar-Border border is about to subside.

However, Hou Yao did not dare to be careless. Although the Toungoo dynasty retreated, it was far from the point of being injured and could come back at any time.Therefore, he still has to prepare for war to deal with changes that may occur at any time. Of course, the time is not as urgent as before.

While preparing for the war, he couldn't help but worry about where Ji Wenjun was.

In early July, good news came again from Myanmar. The Toungoo dynasty's forces had been completely driven out of Mubang, Mengyang, Manmo and other vast areas. King Xi planned to take Yue Feng and his son Xiangwu, who had rebelled against the country and defected to Myanmar, to be captured. Escorted to Beijing, he also asked Hou Yao to send Ji Wenjun back to the capital.

After Hou Yao received this order, he was puzzled. Logically speaking, Ji Wenjun should have met with King Xi a long time ago, so why did he ask him to send him back to Beijing?

So he quickly summoned the yamen officer who had originally sent the letter to ask, and then he found out that he just handed the letter to King Tan and didn't say much else.

Hou Yao's letter also wrote about some of the military's disease prevention regulations and key strategic points for local governance and long-term peace and stability. It also did not explain that Ji Wenjun led troops to rescue him.

So King Xian still thinks that Ji Wenjun is still staying in Bao'an County.

This news almost scared half of Hou Yao's life.

That is to say, Ji Wenjun's Zhu Liang'ao's army has been setting off for nearly two months, but it has not yet reached the Yunnan and Myanmar borders, and the government officials have not met them. What happened?

In mid-July, Hou Yao received a letter. This letter was sent at the end of June, which meant that it had been delivered to Hou Yao after more than ten days.

The sender of the letter was He Zhiyuan, a medical student who was given high hopes by Hou Yao.

In the letter, He Zhiyuan briefly described the experiences and achievements of their group during this period, which can be regarded as a fruitful harvest.

And the most important thing is that at the end of the letter, he said that he met Princess Wenjun by chance in Jiangzhou City, Guangxi.

The princess is unwell, and her pulse is fluent, smooth, like a bead, and strong and powerful. After a period of conditioning, she has gradually recovered.

He just heard that the princess was leading troops to support King Xin in Burma. Therefore, in order to ensure that the princess was in good health, he decided to go with the princess.

When Hou Yao first saw the words "Princess Pulse", he felt that He Zhiyuan was inexplicable.

What does it mean to just treat a disease and go out of your way to tell yourself about your condition?Could it be that knowing it could alleviate the princess's pain?

He scolded He Zhiyuan in his heart, but then he felt something was not right.

He Zhiyuan had never written a letter to him before, but he wrote a letter specifically after meeting the princess this time.

Most of the contents of the entire letter are dispensable things. The only special thing is that he met the princess, and then he decided to go with her.

When he thought about it, Hou Yao felt that something was not right. There seemed to be another mystery to this letter.

So he couldn't help but read the letter carefully from beginning to end. When he read it as a whole, it seemed like an ordinary letter.

The rest of the story is quite satisfactory, except for one place that is a little bit abrupt, which is the description of the princess' condition.

So Hou Yao searched through medical books and found the corresponding pulse pattern.The pulse pattern of Hua Mai is fluent, should be smooth, and moves like a bead.

This kind of pulse pattern is common in syndromes of phlegm-dampness, food accumulation, excessive heat, etc., and seems to be nothing special.

The key is the last four words, vigorous and powerful. Hou Yao searched medical books but couldn't find the corresponding pulse.

Later, a record about Hua Mai was found in a gynecological classic.

If a married woman has a slippery and strong pulse, it can be called a happy pulse.

Hou Yao couldn't believe his eyes. He looked carefully for a long time before confirming that those two words were indeed:

Joy… pulse….
