Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    In the first issue of "Junshan Notes" in April, Li's unfriendly behavior toward the fishermen of the Ming Dynasty began to be published prominently. Through several short stories, people felt Li's deep hostility towards the Ming Dynasty.

    Among these short stories are the Li government's connivance with pirates, the Ming fishermen who encountered storms and wanted to enter the harbor to escape but were refused, the sea trade merchants who were extorted by the local government, and the pioneers who crossed the mountains and were extorted by the Li government.  drive away

    Many people began to pay attention to this foreign country living south of the Hengduan Mountains, and the history and current situation of this country began to be discussed in the streets.

    In the plan, such reports and articles will be published continuously for half a month, gradually escalating the situation.

    When "Junshan Notes" began to publish the article, Dongfang Jing sent a flying talisman to Zhao Ran and told him that Master Kong had arrived at Yunji Island. As expected, Master Chu Tianshi had gone into retreat, but it was not a retreat to attack Hedao, but a retreat to improve his cultivation.  .  Master Kong planned to stay on Yunji Island for a while to see if Chu Tianshi's retreat would be dangerous.

    As "Junshan Notes"'s report on the Li Kingdom heated up, everyone in the court began to pay attention to this series of malicious incidents against the Ming Dynasty.  On the eighth day of April, Yan Song, a cabinet scholar, formally submitted a motion to the joint meeting, requesting that a series of incidents reported in "Junshan Notes" be verified and a hearing held at the court meeting.

    ¡°My conscience, this is really not the instruction from Zhao Ran.

    The date of the hearing was set at the end of April. The following people were invited to attend the hearing: Ruo Qi, a journalist representative who was collecting news in the South China Sea, Zhang Xian, a representative of the Baimei Port pioneers, Mao Mao, a representative of the indigenous islanders who have always lived in the South China Sea.  Haixing, Lan Shuimo, the representative of overseas reclamation companies in Yunji Island, and Mo Buping, the representative of fishermen in Guangxi.

    The above-mentioned people cover all aspects related to Lebanon and are highly comprehensive and representative. The cabinet believes that the original appearance of the incident in Lebanon can be restored from the most fair and objective perspective.

    On the last day of April, the sixth court meeting of the twelfth year of Longqing was held in Fengtian Hall. This was a special court meeting to hear the Li incident.  Attendees included members of the joint meeting and important ministers of the court.

    At the hearing, Ruoqi showed her consistent and impartial reporting attitude, saying that her research direction in Li was the local folk customs and special products, and she was not very clear about the Li incident.  She mainly talked about Li's various resources, rich minerals, wood, various spiritual flowers and herbs, as well as fertile land and three crops of rice a year.

    Of course, in line with the conscience of a reporter, she also took the opportunity to accuse the court and the local tyrants and evil gentry of the Li country of defrauding and oppressing the people of the country, and told the miserable life of the people in that land.

    Ruoqi was very eloquent and spoke pleasantly. The members of the joint meeting and the important ministers in the Fengtian Palace nodded and sighed.

    The next person to appear was Zhang Xian. He talked about his experience of rescuing impoverished people in Li country but was repeatedly blocked by local officials and wizards. He told everyone that so far, Baimei Port has rescued more than 1,800 people. These  After arriving at Baimei Port, everyone seemed to be reborn, and every household lived a good life with enough food and warm clothes.  He also said that more local people are still living in dire straits, but because of the obstruction of the local Li government, more people cannot be rescued. All the pioneers of Baimei Port are deeply saddened by this.

    Mao Haixing, a representative of the indigenous islanders of the South China Sea, analyzed the issue of shipping route safety. In his testimony, he mentioned the importance of the routes from the East China Sea to the South China Sea, from the South China Sea to Siam, and from Siam to Tianzhu. He solemnly reminded the hearing officials that Li Guo is on this route.  Key locations on the route have a vital impact on route safety.

    Mo Buping, a representative of a fishing village in Guangxi, recounted the tragic experience of working hard to fish all day long, but being often driven away by the Li Navy for no reason, the catch confiscated, and even the boat seized.

    Lan Shuimo, representative of the Overseas Reclamation Company's office in Yunji Island, focused on the Li navy's unscrupulous behavior in the South China Sea. They repeatedly broke into the Daming waters of the South China Sea without permission, relied on force to illegally board ships for inspection, demanded bribes, and robbed supplies.  , posing a major threat to the South China Sea.  He also said that there may be evidence that the pirates currently wreaking havoc in the South China Sea, the West China Sea and other places may have the tacit approval or even support of the Le Kingdom court.

    The convening of this hearing also marked that the Li incident has entered the stage of high-level attention in Ming Dynasty and has been considered at the national level.

    On the fifth day of May, the merchant ship Green Tea, belonging to the fleet of Wang Chengyu, an important shareholder of the Overseas Reclamation Company, encountered pirates in the Daming Sea near Champa. The pirates brazenly robbed the merchant ship Green Tea and was forced to fight back. After two hours of fighting, Green Tea  In the process of escaping, the ship sank the pirate ship that was closely pursuing it. Sixteen pirates on board were killed on the spot.

    Although there were no prisoners, judging from the captured charts, travel notes, and clothes on the corpses of pirates, the Navy of Li State had serious suspicions.suspect.

    On the eighth day of May, Ajaan, who was also the major shareholder of the Overseas Reclamation Company, was harassed for no reason at the port of Li by his merchant ship Red Pomelo.  The captain of the Red Pomelo is Hongyou Taoist, a former seafarer from the East China Sea. He is known as the "Sea Coachman" and runs the largest maritime brothel business network in the East China Sea. He was later detained in Songjiang Camp to serve his sentence for war crimes.  Because of his good behavior during his sentence and his many meritorious service, his sentence was reduced to ten years.

    Last August, when Taoist Hongyou was serving his seventh year in prison, Ajiang paid him 10,000 taels of silver and released him on bail to serve his sentence outside prison.  After he came out, he helped Ajaan rebuild the brothel on the sea and showed his outstanding talent in running the brothel. For this, Ajaan rewarded him with a large ship worth 500 yuan.

    Taoist Hongyou took a boat to Li to recruit employees, but his normal recruitment behavior was made difficult by Li¡¯s port officials. In the end, because he was unable to pay the huge bribe, the ship was confiscated and the people were deported.

    These two incidents were quickly exposed and immediately caused an uproar.  The joint meeting that had just concluded the hearing established a high-level investigation team and prepared to go to Lebanon for negotiation.  The members of this investigation team are all in the South China Sea. They will assemble immediately after giving the order.

    In view of Li¡¯s extremely unfriendly attitude toward Ming Dynasty, the joint meeting decided to appoint a high-level cultivator of Lianxu as the leader of the investigation team.  Their Flying Fu Nanhai Squadron commanded Du Yangchen, who was stationed on Yunji Island, to invite Chu Yangcheng, the only Xu Lian in the Nanhai region, to come forward as the team leader.  But Du Yangchen quickly replied that Chu Yangcheng was in retreat and was unable to preside over the investigation.

    Du Yangchen also reported that Kong Yangqing, an elder from the same sect of Chu Yangcheng, was on Yunji Island and asked if he would be invited to serve as the team leader.  The joint meeting extended an invitation to Kong Yangqing, and Kong Yangqing immediately agreed!

    On May 10, the joint meeting officially announced the establishment of an investigation team headed by Mr. Kong Yangqing, and immediately launched investigations into the two incidents. The efficiency was staggering.
