Physician of the Song Dynasty: Zhang Kai and Li Qingzhao have a private life-long contract

"Thank you Fan Taicheng for your help!"

After retreating from the court, Tong Guan found Fan Zheng and expressed his gratitude.

Fan Zheng waved his hand and said: "You are so polite, Mr. Tong. It was Fan who recommended you to go to the Western Ocean. You and I are both honored. Not to mention that you did nothing wrong in this matter. The King of Ceylon brought it upon himself and helped us, the Song Dynasty, to seize Ceylon." The island found a breakthrough.”

Thinking of the strategic position of Ceylon Island in the Western Ocean, Fan Zheng couldn't help but feel excited. As long as the Song Dynasty controlled Ceylon Island and used it as a transit point, the Maritime Silk Road would be greatly shortened and its benefits would be doubled.

Nowadays, the Song Dynasty is booming and requires countless money. The more convenient Maritime Silk Road will definitely become the biggest boost for the Song Dynasty to take off.

Tong Guan nodded solemnly. He originally thought that he was crazy enough to arrest the King of Ceylon when he returned without permission, but he did not expect that Fan Zheng's evil plan was even more radical.

"Now that the map of the Western Ocean has been drawn, and the Song Dynasty once again occupied Ceylon Island, our mission of drilling through the Western Ocean and opening up the Maritime Silk Road has been completed, and Tong can complete his mission!" Tong Guan said with emotion.

He is a eunuch, and he knows that his greatest favor is in the palace. Now he has returned with the credit of opening up the Silk Road, which is enough to honor him for a lifetime.

Fan Zheng was moved. Tong Guan returned from opening up the Silk Road and made great contributions to the Song Dynasty. He will be reused and may follow the same path of future generations.

However, he knew that Tong Guan's military leadership in later generations led the Song Dynasty into a road of eternal disaster, and he said calmly: "I heard that Eunuch Tong reached as far as the far west, and the people there were all dark, like Kunlun slaves? "

"Yes, there are such people. In addition, there are people with blond hair, blue eyes, and fair skin in Dashi and other places. In Tianzhu, the skin is even brown. There are really many strange things in the world." Tong Guan said with emotion.

Tong Guan's trip to sea this time, in order to drill through the Western Ocean and achieve the goal of opening up the Maritime Silk Road, took a very long time and traveled through Western countries, reaching as far as Somalia.

Fan Zheng's eyes flashed and he said: "It is true that the world is vast and full of wonders. We, the Song Dynasty, consider ourselves to be the kingdom of heaven, but we did not expect that the land occupied by the Song Dynasty is probably just one of the nine states in the world. Apart from Eunuch Tong, he has discovered all the Western countries overseas. Besides, aren’t there other Kyushu?”

Tong Guan's heart moved and he said: "What Fan Taicheng means is that today's voyages to the West also only discover a small part of the world."

Fan Zheng glanced at Tong Guan meaningfully and said: "Eunuch Tong should have been at sea for many years. He should understand that as long as there is an ocean, there must be land on the opposite side. Now Eunuch Tong has only opened up the Western Ocean, and to the west of the Western countries, is there no ocean? ? What is the situation on the continent opposite it?"

Tong Guan couldn't help but be shocked! Huo Ran looked up at Fan Zheng.

When he went out to sea, he was once afraid of the rough and turbulent sea. Now, after many years of sailing, he has firmly believed that there must be land on the other side of the sea. As long as he sails in one direction, he will definitely encounter land.

According to the information they gathered from the Far West Country, the west of the Far West Country is also a vast ocean.

"This is not just the Western Ocean, there is also the south of Nanyang." Fan Zheng said again.

Tong Guan said in a deep voice: "Most of Nanyang are islands, and south of Nanyang is the sea."

Tong Guan's heart moved. According to his guess, there may be a continent south of Nanyang that has not yet been explored.

Fan Zheng whispered mysteriously: "What's more important is Dongyang!"

"Toyang?"

Tong Guan frowned. There were only Ryukyu, Fuso and Goryeo in the East. The Song Dynasty had already explored them, but they were not of much value.

Fan Zheng shook his head and said: "Fuso Ryukyu is also an island country. Isn't there a mainland to the east? You also know that the Imperial Medical Bureau is jointly deciphering the oracle bone inscriptions with the Imperial Academy. This batch of oracle bone inscriptions are from the Yin and Shang Dynasties. According to the deciphered results , during the Yin and Shang era, a group of Yin Shang remnants migrated northward, marching across the frozen sea to the continent outside the East Ocean."

"Is this happening?" Tong Guan suddenly asked in shock.

Tong Guan was greatly shocked. He did not expect that outside the East, there were still Yin Shang survivors who were of the same line as the Han people.

And he had no doubts about Fan Zheng's statement. After all, doctors were the first to discover oracle bone inscriptions, which were the oldest written records.

Moreover, according to the records of the eunuch responsible for the voyage to the East, the sea area north of the Jurchen tribe would freeze every winter, and even the entire sea area would be frozen. It would not be impossible for the Yin Shang survivors to migrate eastward from the frozen sea.

"According to Tong's guess, there must be land in the east of the East, which means that the group of Yin Shang survivors may have already existed and even become a branch of Chinese civilization." Tong Guan said solemnly.

Since there is a continent across from the Western Ocean, and there should also be a continent across from the Eastern Ocean, the people of this continent even have a deep connection with the Song Dynasty.

In this way, it was still necessary for the Song Dynasty to continue exploring the East and Southeast Asia.

When Fan Zheng saw Tong Guan's intention, he immediately added another fire and said: "China has been talking about Kyushu since ancient times. However, due to the long history, we have no idea what the real Kyushu is. The achievements of Eunuch Tong's voyages to the West are astonishing. Compared with Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions, it was only widely spread in the Song Dynasty."

"If Eunuch Tong can continue to go to Kyushu, he will draw a real map of the nine states in the world and drive a sea ship to connect the nine states in the world. This level of achievement will be enough to surpass Zhang Qian's drilling through the Western Regions. In the future, Tong Guan's name will be spread in the nine states, even if Even Fan is very envious."

"Xia Kyushu!"

"The name Tong Guan is spread throughout Kyushu!"

Tong Guan's breath suddenly froze when he heard the words, and Fan Zheng's heroic words made his heart skip a beat.

He has now dug through the Western Ocean, opened up the Maritime Silk Road, and brought back a large amount of wealth to the Song Dynasty. Such achievements are comparable to Zhang Qian's mission to the Western Regions.

And he, Tong Guanzu, could be promoted in the court and make a fortune with his huge achievements, and this was his original plan.

However, Fan Zheng's idea of ​​going to Kyushu made his heart beat. It is true that although his current contribution is great, he is only as famous as Zhang Qian, and his reputation is only spread in China.

If Tong Guanzhen completes his grand goal of going to Kyushu, he will not only surpass his predecessor Zhang Qian, but also go one step further and become the first person in history to have a reputation that spreads throughout Kyushu. Even as the evil doctor Fan Zheng said, his fame will make the evil doctor even more famous. Fan Zheng was also envious of him.

"name!"

Tong Guan couldn't help but feel excited. As a eunuch, he valued reputation the most, otherwise he would not have listened to Fan Zheng's proposal to open up the Maritime Silk Road.

And Fan Zheng put forward the grand idea of ​​going to Kyushu, which made Tong Guan even more excited.

"I have heard for a long time that Fan Taicheng's evil methods are invincible, and it is really irresistible!" Tong Guan said with a deep look at Fan Zheng.

Fan Zheng raised his eyebrows and said, "So, Eunuch Tong agrees."

Tong Guan said proudly: "Since Tong has already sailed to the West, what about going to Kyushu again?"

Fan Zheng reminded: "Eunuch Tong, Fan wants to remind you that the voyage to the West may be completed in a few years, but the voyage to Kyushu may not be that simple. I am afraid it will take Eunuch Tong his whole life to complete such a grand idea."

He naturally knew that Tong Guan was very utilitarian. If he returned to the court with the help of his achievements in the Western voyages, he would surely rise step by step. However, once he continued to Kyushu, he might only have fame.
