At the request of the eunuch Tong Guan, Zhao Ji finished naming the thirty giant ships that were about to sail out to sea.

He also became worried, whether Tong Guan, who is good at doing one thing in front of others and doing another behind the scenes, that is, "coquettish in nature and good at flattering", can really follow my will and sail to America to find the "Three Treasures" for the Song Dynasty?

?

Zhao Ji felt that his worries were justified.

After all, it is recorded in history books,

Although Tong Guan has always advocated joining forces with the Jin Dynasty to destroy the Liao Dynasty and regain the sixteen states of Yanyun;

However, in the fourth year of Xuanhe in history, when Tong Guantong conquered the Liao Dynasty and prepared to regain the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, the Song army encountered the tenacious and heroic resistance of the famous Liao general Yelu Dashi, and gave the Song army a head-on blow.

Tong Guan saw that the Song soldiers were defeated at the beginning of the battle with the Liao army, and he was immediately frightened.

Tong Guan, who was good at adjusting to the wind, immediately ordered his troops to retreat and return to the cities in the Song Dynasty to hold on, and never dared to fight again.

Tong Guan activated his other thoughts and did not want to take the risk of leading his army to attack and seize the Sixteenth Prefecture of Yanyun.

After Tong Guan faced the failure of his troops to attack Liao, he came up with a bad idea.

This bad idea is to beg the Jin army to take over Yanjing and redeem the empty cities such as Yanjing with millions of gold coins before returning, but then talk about the restoration...

Therefore, Zhao Ji was worried about a villain like Tong Guan and entrusted him with the important task of leading thirty giant ships on a voyage to America to retrieve the "Three Treasures".

If his Tong Guan fleet sailed in the sea and had smooth sailing, it would be okay.

If his fleet encounters strong winds and waves, or if they cannot endure the long voyage and fail to reach their destination in America, they will stop midway.

For example, when you arrive at the coast of Southeast Asia or other places, or when you arrive at the coast of Europe, you can anchor your fleet to the shore without making any further progress. This possibility still exists.

Therefore, after Zhao Ji reviewed Tong Guancheng's memorial, he did not immediately send it to Tong Guancheng in the southeast.

Zhao Ji immediately issued an order to Liang Shicheng, the eunuch beside him:

"Before that, I will recruit the two hundred young eunuchs from the reserve supervisory army who I personally selected into the palace as soon as possible."

"Old slave, I obey the order." Liang Shicheng obeyed the order.

He was puzzled, what did Zhao Guan's family want to do?

However, Liang Shicheng did not dare to ask any more questions.

He felt that as long as he could run errands well for Zhao Guan's family after his personality changed drastically, he could keep his big, fat head and high position.

After receiving the order from Zhao Guan's family, the chubby Liang Shicheng trotted out of Chui Gong Hall.

…

Liang Shicheng quickly completed the mission of Zhao Guan's family.

Before, the two hundred eunuchs carefully selected by Zhao Ji in the palace were all kneeling in the hanging arch hall.

They kowtowed and shouted in unison:

"My little slave, I bow to your majesty. Long live my emperor."

Zhao Jidao: "Everyone loves you for your health."

This is a time-traveling Zhao Ji. According to the fact that he had not traveled back to the Song Dynasty, before the modern society examined and promoted the cadre system, he deliberately imitated the preparatory cadre system of later generations in the palace.

Two hundred young eunuchs who were loyal to the emperor, patriotic, young, promising, and smart were personally selected from among the low-level eunuchs in the palace.

They are all between the ages of twenty and twenty-five, which is the best age of life.

They have shed their youthful naivety;

They also don't have as much tact and sophistication as the old eunuchs.

They are in their prime to serve as Linjun, an errand that dares to offend others!

Zhao Ji sat on the dragon chair, stared at the two hundred young eunuchs with burning eyes, and said:

"You are all the reserve eunuchs who were selected by me after thousands of selections.

Now, I have to give you an important task to serve the country and the people, but it will require a narrow escape.

I need to select those who are brave and careful among you!

Who dares to die generously? Please raise your right hand."

"Shuashuashua..."

"Shuashuashua..."

The two hundred young eunuchs in the reserve supervisory army all raised their right hands one after another.

Zhao Ji smiled slightly, it seems that he did not waste his efforts in carefully selecting you brave little eunuchs from the palace!

Zhao Ji saw that the two hundred minor officials below all raised their right hands.

Zhao Ji then used visual screening to analyze the expressions on the faces of 200 young eunuchs to analyze which ones would really not be afraid of death...

He identified them one by one, selected those with firm expressions, and stood in the front row.

Soon, Zhao Ji personally selected ninety young eunuchs to prepare to supervise the army.

Zhao Ji comforted the remaining 110 young eunuchs who were preparing to supervise the army and said:

“I know that all of you who love me are loyal to your Majesty and patriotic, and dare to sacrifice your life generously to the deceased.

However, after all, this mission only requires ninety military eunuchs to complete, which is enough.

You guys, please retire first, and when I need you, I will naturally call in someone who can use you more!"

Although, the remaining one hundred and ten young eunuchs who are preparing to supervise the army do not know what tasks the ninety young eunuchs selected by the emperor will perform for the emperor.

However, they know that the more dangerous the task, as long as the execution is successful, they will be promoted and reused.

Their eyes showed the disappointment after not being selected by Zhao Guan's family.

However, Zhao Guan's family had already issued an "expulsion order", so they had no choice but to kneel down and kowtow, saying thanks:

"Thank you Lord for your kindness. I obey the order and retire..."

After the one hundred and ten young eunuchs who were not selected all exited the Chui Gong Hall,

Zhao Ji smiled slightly and said to the ninety selected young eunuchs of the reserve supervisory army:

"I have an important task that I want to entrust to you."

…

"Earlier, after my imperial commander personally marched to the southeast and quelled the Fangla bandit rebellion,

So I left Tong Guan on the southeast coast and built thirty giant ships for me to go out to sea to hunt for treasures."

The ninety junior officers of the reserve army who knelt down in the Chui Gong Hall to listen to the order were all smart and clever people.

They heard what Zhao Guanjia said, and they all understood that the task they were going to do this time was to supervise the captains of thirty giant ships, right?!

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Zhao Ji continued: "Now, I have received a memorial from Tong Guan, saying that he has supervised the construction of thirty giant ships on the southeast coast.

, I am planning to lead the team on a long voyage in early March of this year, by choosing an auspicious day with beautiful wind and sunshine!

Therefore, I personally selected ninety people who love you and divided them into thirty groups;

There are three people in each group, one person is named the Ship Supervisor, and two people are named the Deputy Ship Supervisor;

I ordered you and others to board thirty giant ships respectively, and after supervising their voyage, they must reach their destination in America and retrieve the three treasures of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn seeds for our Song Dynasty..."

As Zhao Ji spoke, he took thirty copies of the world navigation map and the "Three Treasures" drawings that had been prepared from the dragon case, and asked the eunuch Liang Shicheng to distribute them...

At this time, the ninety young eunuchs of the reserve supervisory army understood that it turned out that Zhao Guan's family was entrusted with such an important task!

Although they are all castrated remains,

However, after all, they are all still young, and all of them are of a good age, full of vigor and vitality.

Therefore, not only were they not afraid to supervise the fleet of the eunuch Tong Guan, but they felt that this was their best opportunity to make a career.

…

Next, Zhao Ji ordered the great eunuch Liang Shicheng to divide the ninety young eunuchs into groups of three according to their age, for a total of thirty groups.

Then, Zhao Ji appointed the slightly older members of each group as ship supervisors of a certain giant ship that went out to sea, and gave them an official rank of seventh rank;

The remaining two slightly younger eunuchs in that group were both appointed deputy ship supervisors and given the rank of seventh rank.

The ninety captains and deputy envoys who were rewarded by Zhao Ji immediately kowtowed and thanked them for their official positions and ranks, and shouted in unison:

"I thank the Lord for your kindness. Long live my emperor!"

Zhao Ji saw that these smart little eunuchs changed their names very quickly because of their official status.

Zhao Ji smiled slightly and said:

"My dear friends, I will spare you the courtesy. I have something else to say to you."

The ninety captain's and deputy envoys thanked him one after another and stood in the Chui Gong Hall.

Zhao Ji waved to the eunuch Liang Shicheng who was standing next to him.

Liang Shicheng understood immediately. He leaned over to the Long Bookcase in Zhao Guan's house and poked his fat head over.
