When I traveled through the Yongle Dynasty of the Ming Dynasty, the first thing I did was to get ahead of Zheng He and ask for permission to sail to the West.
Zhu Di was doubtful, so I directly spread out the map of Kun Yu and Ten Thousand Kingdoms that I drew by myself.
"Your Majesty, please see that nine out of ten of the world's wealth is on the sea. The Buddhists and the red-haired barbarians are sharpening their swords. In a hundred years, they will carve up the four seas and dominate China."
"If your majesty believes in me and gives me twenty years, all the sea areas illuminated by the sun and moon will be my Ming Dynasty shipping lanes; all the unconquered countries in the four directions will accept the tribute of my Ming Dynasty."
From then on, I led a fleet far ahead of its time to plow the waves and sail far away.
The city of Malacca was built, troops were stationed in the Indian Ocean, the sun and moon flag was raised at the Cape of Good Hope, and the European countries were frightened by the news.
Twenty-two years passed quickly, and Emperor Yongle accepted the coming of all nations on the top of the Forbidden City.
The Xiyi envoys trembled and knelt down: "Please... Please His Majesty the Great Emperor, mark a navigation route for us."
