[1] "A Good Thing is Near. Worked in a Dream" by Qin Guan. Ci
? Rain adds flowers to the road in spring, and the flowers move a mountain in spring.
Walking to the depths of the stream, there are thousands of orioles.
Feiyun turns into a dragon and a snake face to face, and turns into a blue sky.
Drunk and lying under the shade of ancient vines, I don't know the north and the south.
In the early morning, there were a few sporadic raindrops. Although the rain was light, it also wiped away the light dust on the road.
After a while, the sun climbed up the mountain with a smile, and the spring flowers gradually bloomed, making the mountains and plains gorgeous; wonderland.
After Ji Xu and the crown prince had breakfast, they headed for Yangzhou. They did not ride horses, but let their entourage lead the horses with them.
They walked along the east bank of the canal.
Ji Xu and the prince chatted as they walked: the two of them pointed and talked for a while, and chatted and laughed happily for a while. Ji Xu's words were very funny, and made the prince laugh out loud from time to time.
They followed the arch bridge to the west bank of the canal.
The winding spring road is next to a brook, and the stream is gurgling. Walking along the path to the end of the quiet and beautiful stream, countless orioles are suddenly startled to sing in the woods at the head of the stream.
They sat on the rocks at the head of the stream to rest.
Looking at the dozen or so strong military horses accompanying him, Ji Xu asked, "Master Tie, did you come on horseback when you came to Jiangnan this time?"
The prince said: "No, we came by boat."
Ji Xu asked puzzledly: "Take a boat? This is wrong!"
"What's wrong?"
"If you take a boat, you should have passed Yangzhou City!" Ji Xu pointed to the canal downhill and asked, "Have you not traveled through this section of water?
"Oh, we are taking the sea route, entering the Guazhou Wharf from the mouth of the Yangtze River."
"Walking the sea?"
"yes."
"That's so dizzy!"
The prince smiled and said: "I don't feel dizzy, I feel very good. I have been to Korea and Guangxi, and I have traveled by sea."
"I've never been on a sea boat."
"If Mr. Ji is interested, you can sit with me and find the feeling of riding the wind and waves"
"Okay, okay, if I have a chance, I will definitely find the feeling that a man wants."
From the conversation, Ji Xu was more sure of Mr. Tie's royal status. Because, among the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty, only "Iron Pot" was a member of the royal family who had traveled all over the empire; moreover, only the royal family could own military ships[1].
At this time Zhang Jin and Wang Buhua bought food, wine and delicacies, and the five of them had a picnic under the shade of the ancient vines.
The sky is surrounded by white clouds, and under the blowing of the mountain wind, the flying clouds change various shapes, twist and stretch, like dragons and snakes, flying in the blue sky, winding between the peaks, majestic and majestic.
The color of rain and light, the ancient vines in Chunshan. Intoxicated in this quiet beauty, sleeping soundly under the shade of ancient vines, completely forgetting the complicated world
[2] "Poor Piece of Flawless Jade" Feng Zikai. Lyrics
Poor piece of flawless jade,
Fall into the wind, dust and flowers by mistake;
Envy the saltless girls in other villages,
Live a life without being favored or surprised.
In the evening, they stayed at the "Gaomin Temple" in Sanwan of the Canal.
Before going to bed, Zhang Jin teased: "Hey, starling, it seems that you and Mr. Tie are in love with each other!"
Ji Xu said: "Little brother, your wording is a bit inappropriate!"
"What's wrong?"
"Emotionally compatible, mostly used for men and women."
Zhang Jin tilted his head and asked, "Really?"
"Of course, if a man and a woman 'like each other', it is the highest state of love."
"Aren't you two?"
"We are both men, so we can only use 'like-minded'."
"I see, you two are chatting and laughing happily, and you seem to agree with each other very much. No wonder your classmates say you have a 'crazy sleeve'."
Ji Xu looked at Zhang Jin in a daze, and said with a smile: "I think you are a taster!"
Zhang Jin pouted and said, "What flavor do I eat?"
Ji Xu teased: "However, I think you and Wang Buhua can get along very well!"
"That's what we are - fish looking for fish, shrimp looking for shrimp, and 'sissy' looking for Wang Buhua."
Ji Xu was amused by Zhang Jin, and said, "This is what you called 'sissy', don't blame me"
"ThisAnd a variety of daily necessities throughout Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean region, affecting the living habits of the local people. According to the "Records of Fengtu of Zhenla", the people of Chenla originally served rice with leaves and grabbed them with their hands. After a large number of Chinese goods came in, the local people used Chinese porcelain or copper plates to serve rice, and the ground was covered with grass from Mingzhou. The umbrella covers in the guard of honor for dignitaries and dignitaries are made of Chinese red silk. Persian historians also mentioned many times that the goods from China included silk, porcelain, paper, ink, peacocks, horse gear, felt, cinnamon and rhubarb, etc., and emphasized that silk and porcelain were the best things in China.
Under the background of unprecedentedly frequent maritime activities, the shipbuilding technology of the Yuan Dynasty developed rapidly. Countless sea travelers were shocked by the Chinese galleons. Marco Polo mentioned that each Chinese sea ship in the early Yuan Dynasty required 300 sailors, and the ship could carry 5000-6000 baskets of pepper, with a single deck and 60 cabins Room, 4-6 sails. Ibn Battuta arrived in China at the end of the Yuan Dynasty. The Chinese ships he described each had 600 sailors and 400 warriors, with 12 sails and 4 decks. There were guest rooms, suites, and shops on the ship. Each suite included Guest room and washroom.
Due to the convenient sea transportation, a large number of merchants, envoys, missionaries and travelers traveled by sea, leaving precious records. The European travelers Marco Polo and Odoric, and the Moroccan traveler Ibn Battuta, all took sea ships, passed through Southeast Asia and the Indian Ocean, traveled between the East and the West, and left famous travel notes respectively. Records the grand occasion of the Maritime Silk Road in the Yuan Dynasty. China's Wang Dayuan went to sea twice in his youth, traveling to the East Ocean and the West Ocean respectively for travel and trade, and left an important marine local chronicle "Daoyi Zhilue", which recorded more than 200 country names and place names, many of which were first seen in China The description covers the geographical range from the Philippine Islands in the east to Africa in the west. The development of sea transportation also brought overseas envoys to come. During the reign of Kublai Khan alone, about 40 countries and regions paid tribute 110 times.
Due to the development of the Maritime Silk Road, the compilation of maps in the Yuan Dynasty also reached a new peak. When Jamal al-Din was commissioned to compile the General Geographical Book of the Yuan Dynasty, he collected all geographical information, including various Persian nautical charts. These charts are called "Haidao Huiwen Sanama", which means Persian, and Sanama is the transliteration of Persian "Road Book". These materials were all compiled into the "Dayi Tongzhi" in the Yuan Dynasty, including a complete color-painted full map "General Map of Tianxia Geography", from "the place where the sun rises", that is, the Pacific Ocean coast, to "the place where the sun disappears", that is, the west of the Western Regions. The "Hunyi Map of the Ming Dynasty" and "The Map of the Capitals of the Past Dynasties of Xinjiang" in the Ming Dynasty were also compiled based on the general geographical map of the Yuan Dynasty.
(3) Building a transportation network along the Maritime Silk Road
Archaeological data show that five thousand years ago, there were already traces of human activities across the sea. With the development of society and economy, there are sailors, merchants, missionaries and travelers sailing on the sea continuously, looking for new goods, new lands or all unknown things. The exchanges of these voyagers communicated the land on both sides of the ocean, and the communication through the ocean, especially the long-distance trade, made the ocean a common space.
?From the early years of the Yuan Dynasty, the central government began to implement the overseas trade policy of "trading and trading, each doing what he wants". Encouraged by this policy, long-distance trade became more and more frequent, and not only commodities were exchanged between regions, but also knowledge, beliefs, and ideas, and the ties between countries became closer. When Yang Tingbi, the envoy of the Yuan Dynasty, led the mission to Mabal State in southeastern India, Prime Minister Ma Yin and Bu Ali warmly received them. Bu'ali's ancestral home was in the coastal city of Harakha in Oman on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. From the 11th to the 12th century, the Oman region fell into chaos, and the local residents continued to migrate to the Persian Gulf and other parts of the Indian Ocean by sea. country. His father and King Mabaer were called brothers, but after his father died, Bu Ali was jealous of the king. Therefore, he sent envoys and merchant ships to make friends with the Yuan Dynasty many times, and finally fled Mabaer Kingdom, went to the Yuan Dynasty by sea, and served as an official in China. for wife. Bu Ali's experience is one of the profiles of the prosperous maritime traffic in the Yuan Dynasty. This connection between regions established through long-distance trade exchanges goes beyond the traditional concept of national borders.
?With the prosperity and development of the Maritime Silk Road in the Yuan Dynasty, China, Southeast Asia, the Indian subcontinent, West Asia, East Africa and even the Mediterranean region were connected. Each sea area is no longer a separate geographical and political and economic unit, but has formed a transportation network that closely affects each other, and its scope is unprecedentedly extensive in the Yuan Dynasty. Not only that, the density, intensity and speed of the mutual communication between various regions through the sea route have made the different regions that were isolated from each other closely integrated. Through the frequent activities of the maritime silk road, a maritime communication network has been formed between the East and the West. This network is not only a complex whole, but also contains multiple parts and the relationship between them. The formation of the maritime communication network stems from the cumulative mutual influence of various parts, so it appears to be both orderly and disorderly, and unity and separation coexist at the same time. Although this maritime communication network is far from reaching today's level, its unprecedented openness is shocking. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com)Coexist at all times.
