At the port terminal of Nanzhou City, the largest island in East Africa, the South African Colony, several large ships were already ready to sail north. However, when the time came to ten o'clock in the morning, they still had not started.
The staff on the ship were waiting patiently, because they knew that this time, a real big shot was going north on several large ships.
Yes, you heard it right, a person has to take several large ships to go north. The three large ships are all for this one person. Many of his personal cars, family papers, gifts, etc. have already been installed on the ship. Supplies and many other things.
At the dock where we boarded the ship, the Governor of South Africa, Liu Da, and his whole family arrived. They were all crying. They were extremely reluctant to leave when Liu Jin was about to leave.
They tried every possible means to persuade him to stay longer, but Liu Jin had already decided to leave, and it was of no use.
At this moment, Liu Da, even though he was middle-aged and still the governor-general of South Africa, when his father was about to leave South Africa, he was still full of tears and extremely reluctant to leave.
Because he knew that this farewell might never have the chance to meet again.
¡°Perhaps the next time we meet, it may be when Liu Jin is about to leave, and this farewell will most likely be a farewell forever.
Recalling the warmth at home when he was a child, he was sent to South Africa to grow up alone when he grew up. Now he has become the Governor-General of South Africa, which has consolidated the Liu family's status and interests in South Africa.
Everything, in fact, is ultimately inseparable from Liu Jin¡¯s support.
It is precisely because of Liu Jin¡¯s silent support behind him, who arranged the road ahead for Liu Da, that he was able to go so smoothly.
Even though they are thousands of miles apart, even if they are not around, Liu Da can still feel the father's love from Liu Jin. Father's love is like a mountain. It is precisely because of Liu Jin's love for his children that he chose to let his brothers go. Went overseas.
This has only made a few brothers. If they were just like those powerful children in the capital and just stayed in the capital, they might now be just a dandy in the capital or an unknown ordinary noble boy, working in the military or in the court. A small official will grow old without accomplishing anything in his life.
Only when Liu Da truly stood in the position of Governor-General of South Africa, and when he began to think about the future of his children, could Liu Da truly understand the good intentions of his father Liu Da.
Once upon a time, Liu Da had a lot of complaints about Liu Jin.
Because the eldest Liu Xin can stay in the capital, and the seventh Liu Qing can also stay in the capital, but they are exiled overseas, far away from their relatives and the comfortable life in the Beijing and Tianjin areas.
He was once very eager to stay in the capital, even if it meant becoming a mediocre person, so he was filled with a lot of dissatisfaction with Liu Jin in his heart.
But when he thought back on the path he had taken and looked at everything now, he truly understood that jade cannot be made into anything if it is not polished. If you stay in the capital, you will be just a canary in a cage, and you will never be able to make a difference.
Only by going overseas, in a free sky, flying freely and growing freely, can we truly grow into a great man like Liu Jin, a person who can go down in history.
When his children had grown up, and when he began to make arrangements and considerations for their future, Liu Da had to admit that he might not be able to be like his father. Compared with his father, I am still too far behind.
Liu Jin will always be an unattainable peak in his heart, an existence worth looking up to throughout his life.
"Father, please stay here for a while longer, and let me spend more time with you."
Liu Da burst into tears and couldn't control his emotions, and his mother Li Zhenna couldn't even cry.
"Child, I have lived here for a long time."
"I want to go to your third brother, fourth brother, and fifth brother. There are still many things to do in Ming Dynasty, and there are many people to meet."
Liu Jin looked at Liu Da and wiped his slightly moist eyes.
Speaking of reluctance, Liu Jin was actually very reluctant to give up, but there was nothing he could do about it. He couldn't stay here forever.
"I still have a lot of things to do, and a lot of people to meet. While my health is still good, and I haven't gotten old yet, I can finish all these things."
"You've done a great job, I'm proud of you!"
"I hope that you can continue to do so in the future, lead the people of the South African colony to a better future, and also make our old Liu family multiply and grow."Gradually, the Ming Empire prospered and prospered, and the Ming Empire got rid of the curse and fate of past historical reincarnations.
Historians have carefully studied and made various guesses, but they have never been able to figure out what kind of illusory world Liu Jin and Liu Gong, who had a huge influence on history, experienced in the first eighteen years, so that he was allowed to die. Liu Jin grew up to be a great man enough to rank among the top ten in history.
The autobiography written by Liu Jin has also become an important historical material for later historians to study the Hongzhi Dynasty and Zhengde Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, which was a turbulent, turbulent, rapid development and ever-changing era.
The rapid development of capitalism and colonialism, the rapid sprouting and breakthrough of science and technology and the humanistic spirit, this is a new era that is different from any previous new era in any country or dynasty.
Liu Jin was in such an era and was still the leader of this era. Liu Jin's autobiography is definitely an important material for later historians to study this magnificent era.
Of course, thanks to the rapid development of technology in this era, a large number of precious photos and video materials have been left in this era, and a large number of newspapers have been circulated to later generations, so that future generations can clearly know what happened in this era. For major events, you can also see photos of people from this era that reflect history.
But many major events have actually been buried in the long river of history over time. Only some things left over from history can truly reveal the true face of that period of history.
Why do some people like to study history? It is because through continuous analysis and deduction from various aspects of data, we can finally truly restore that period of history, so that future generations can know the true thoughts buried in history.
Is historical truth important?
If you say it is important, of course it is important. If you say it is not important, it is not important.
In the end, everything will be sunk and covered up by history. Only those great men who can truly shine through the ages can have their names remembered by future generations.
They are like the peak in the long river of history. No matter how the long river of history washes away, they still do not fall. Because there are always people who can see the waves you once made thousands of years later.
Of course, for Liu Jin now, these are all things in the future.
He is still worried about his autobiography.
When it came time to actually write his autobiography, Liu Jin also found that he didn¡¯t know how to start.
Because some of my memories have become blurry, I still need to recall them carefully. I also need to look up some historical records at the time, and recall and check them with some people.
Since it is an autobiography, written for future generations to read, it naturally needs to be rigorous and serious.
And this is the only thing Liu Jin needs to do in his old age. Liu Jin wants to write it seriously.
Unlike the biographies written by historians in the past, which were written in short classical Chinese, Liu Jin decided to write in vernacular. This does not mean that he cannot write classical Chinese.
By the time Liu Jin was at his level, he was already familiar with it and could write classical Chinese.
But in classical Chinese, just a few words contain too much meaning, which requires continuous research and speculation by future generations, and there will always be huge deviations.
Therefore, it is still necessary to use vernacular, write in vernacular, and be as detailed and specific as possible, so that it will be easier for future generations to read and study.
But you can¡¯t show that you are not good enough, so this is a headache. Whether the autobiography is based on time or events is something that needs to be carefully considered and carefully considered.
Generally speaking, Liu Jin needs to think carefully, consider carefully, and check the information and recall some things in the past in detail.
Especially when it comes to people like Emperor Hongzhi, Liu Jian, Li Dongyang, Wang Shouren, Zhang Mao, Yang Yun, Zhu Fu, and Zhu Houzhao, it is even more important to bring them to life and restore as much as possible their true appearance and what they said at the time. Words, affection, etc.
This is a huge job!
