Chapter 2106 Jinhua Taibao, overseas conferred gods, the destination of Baitiao in the waves
With a face as soft as powder and a body as soft as pastry, his body is strong and strong, and he walks on the water as if he is strolling on the flat ground. When he falls into the water again, his white flesh, which looks like snow all over his body, shuttles extremely quickly under the sea, and the ship next to him
The Ryukyu soldiers and civilians who were watching from above could even clearly see a white stripe flashing past in the waves. And the expert who could use such means of turning the river and the sea was naturally the water-propelled person among the heroes of Shuibo Liangshan.
Langli Baitiao Zhang Shun, who can be called a leader.
The Ryukyu Islands are only more than a thousand miles away from the military states on the east coast of China, so it is not a long way. With Zhang Shun's temperament, it is best for him to travel to various places with good water. It is also convenient for him to visit Ryukyu with his envoys to see the scenery of the islands.
Today, the Ryukyu royal family still belongs to the Tiansun dynasty whose names of the kings in the official history cannot be verified. Nowadays, it is still called "Ryukyu", although it has not been as willing to be a vassal of the Central Plains Dynasty as it was in the Ming Dynasty.
The country paid tribute as a vassal, but it was still known through maritime merchants that it destroyed the Jin Dynasty, swallowed up the Song Dynasty, and conquered the Xia Kingdom. The Qi Empire in Dali prospered and became a powerful national power. Emperor Xiao Tang of the Qi Dynasty sent people to inform him in advance and sent envoys.
Coming as an envoy with an imperial edict was naturally a good thing for King Liuqiu Tiansun, so he immediately dispatched personnel to greet the envoy respectfully, without any hesitation.
During the period when the envoys from the upper dynasty were received and the time for negotiation was reported to the king, the two sides were chatting and heard that Zhang Shun was the founding hero of China who was famous for his excellent water properties. Although this did not offend the upper dynasty.
The envoy, but the Ryukyu general who came to greet him couldn't help but said with a smile that although the country is small and the people are few, after all, the people under his rule are all islanders. Although others are not as good as your country, but only the water spirit
A skilled person may not lose.
Zhang Shun said nothing when he was joking, but he naturally wanted to show off his skills. And when he showed off his ability to jump like a fish and shuttle through the sea as fast as lightning, he certainly shocked the Ryukyu soldiers and civilians who were watching in admiration.
I know that Zhang Shun's water nature is not only in China, but also rarely encountered in the world.
The white light that shuttled wantonly in the water finally sprang out of the sea. He reached forward with his hands, then took advantage of the opportunity to turn over neatly and landed steadily on the deck of the ship. However, Zhang Shun was seen scratching the deck indiscriminately.
Wearing a water skirt, she took off her half-naked body, revealing her snow-white body that was dripping with water. Then she smiled and looked at the Ryukyu officials around her who were opening their mouths from ear to ear, clasping their fists and holding their hands. The Ryukyu general among them finally came to his senses.
, immediately praised Zhang Shun and said: "Xiangong Zhang, I have been greatly trusted just now, and I am really convinced! The China of China is really capable of producing many people, let alone that no one in this country can match Xianggong Zhang. With such means,
It’s definitely not something a mortal can do!”
Zhang Shunqian smiled warmly, and then replied: "General, I have praised you very much. Although diving and swimming are indeed what I am good at, if you say that ordinary people can't do it...it's not even 40 to 50 miles above the water surface, and underwater."
The ability to hide for seven days and seven nights, among the brothers among us who gathered together at the beginning, there were some who could do it..."
The Ryukyu general was even more astonished when he heard this, and then he said respectfully: "Our country admires the Central People's Government, and is willing to serve as a minister. And I am lucky enough to get to know such a wonderful person as Xianggong Zhang. Your Highness will definitely be very happy."
Just as this Ryukyu general said, since Ryukyu originally originated from an island civilization and believed in worshiping the sea, customs such as the Poseidon Festival have been passed down to later generations.
The attitude of the foreigners is truly astonishing.
Therefore, when the King of Ryukyu met with the envoys of the Qi Dynasty, he was even more surprised after hearing about Zhang Shun's extraordinary ability to transcend worldly matters, and treated him as a distinguished guest. Zhang Shun, who originally took advantage of the opportunity to travel overseas, was
Shun, on the contrary, became a key figure in promoting Ryukyu to accept the Qi Dynasty as its suzerainty...
After negotiation and agreement between the two parties, the process of Ryukyu claiming vassalage and paying tribute to the emperor of Qi Dynasty went very smoothly. The Ryukyu Kingdom was naturally happy to see the mutual maritime trade with the huge empire of China. The Qi Dynasty was also very happy.
The country agreed to its demands of paying tribute once a year and opening the trading port all year round. Since then, Ryukyu has accelerated its entry into the Chinese cultural circle in advance, and it is a country in the ocean that will connect Northeast Asia in later generations.
The key point of Southeast Asian trade is the place known as the "Tianjin Liang", which undoubtedly plays a vital role in the maritime transportation between Qi and North Korea in the South China Sea.
In the following years, Ryukyu not only frequently sent envoys to the Central Plains to pay tribute, but the relationship between the country's lord Tiansun and Zhang Shun was still very close. Later, Zhang Shun commanded the navy and once went to Japan, which was also called "
On the Taiwan Island of Xiaoliuqiu and the surrounding Penghu Islands, there were already a considerable number of local Han family members at that time. Xiao Tang then placed all the main island and archipelago under the jurisdiction of Fujian Road, and gently appeased the local mountains.
Various tribes and ethnic groups sent troops to guard the plain areas to open up cultivated land. Compared with the establishment of the Penghu Inspection Department in Penghu during the Yuan Dynasty in official history, it was faster to establish government agencies in the entire area...
Zhang Shun had a close relationship with the Ryukyu royal family. Although his elder brother Zhang Heng died on the battlefield because he sacrificed his life to save his brother, he was not married and had no children. However, Zhang Shun still had to marry a lady from a well-known family as his wife.
There was harmony and love, and then there were many descendants. Zhang Shun, as a hero of the navy of the Qi Dynasty, was later promoted to the Privy Council to take charge of the recruitment, promotion and transfer of the navy of the Qi Dynasty. Until he was seventy years old, he was awarded a generous title and among his descendants.
Many people who are proficient in water and are good at water warfare serve as naval generals of the Qi Dynasty. They inherit the clothes of their ancestors and continue to serve the country...
However, after Zhang Shunshan passed away, his story did not end there.
According to the dynasty change track of the Ryukyu Kingdom in the official history, the last king of Tiansun was killed by the powerful ministers, and the dynasty was destroyed. Then Zunton raised troops to kill the rebels and was elected as the king. Ryukyu entered the Shuntian Dynasty and then split.
The three kingdoms of Seishannan, Zhongshan, and Yamaboku entered the "Three Mountains Era" of mutual opposition. The three Ryukyu kingdoms all maintained tributary and canonization relations with the Ming Dynasty. Then the Japanese Satsuma clan invaded the Ryukyus until the Meiji period when the royal family was completely destroyed and the islands were
It was incorporated into the country and renamed Okinawa Prefecture...
But at least it is now the season, Ryukyu has established a vassal relationship with the Central Plains Dynasty in advance, and the Daqi Empire is behind it.
In the official history, the Tesun Dynasty of Ryukyu fell due to the rebellion of rebellious ministers and regicides. However, with the assistance of the Qi Dynasty naval forces stationed in the area to escort sea trade ships, the rebel forces were quickly wiped out, allowing the royal regime to continue. The King of Ryukyu expressed his gratitude.
Due to the kindness of the Qi Dynasty, he accepted the surname of Xiao and regarded himself as a vassal state in the Central Plains for generations. The naval general of the Qi Dynasty who led troops to assist Ryukyu in eradicating the rebellion was the descendant of Zhang Shun.
At that time, Zhang Shun had a close relationship with the Tiansun royal family, and his reputation in the Ryukyu Islands was even more famous. As the years have changed, Zhang Shun, an important figure who promoted the establishment of diplomatic relations between his country and the Qi Dynasty, has been passed down orally from his time.
His abilities are rumored to be extremely mysterious, and some people even think that he is the messenger of Poseidon...
And the efforts of Zhang Shun's descendants to help their country put down the rebellion may no longer arouse serious myths. This made his local reputation in Ryukyu reach its peak even a hundred years later, and even the Ryukyu king accepted Zhang Shun's order.
When the founding Duke of the Qi Dynasty received the title of Juelu fiefdom, he was granted the title of Jinhua Taibao who channeled spirits and manifested the saints. He was worshiped as a god and had to build a temple to offer sacrifices. Even though times have changed, Ryukyu has always maintained a very close relationship with the Central Plains dynasty.
It has not been infringed upon by foreign princes and vassals and lost its sovereignty. It has been influenced by the Central Plains culture for generations and has always enjoyed the reputation of "Little China" overseas. Zhang Shun, nicknamed Langli Baitiao and serving as the Taibao of Jinhua, has always been
In later generations, Ryukyu people and Chinese tourists came to worship, and the incense has never stopped...
