Daming: I help my wife be the empress

Chapter 902 Fan Wai [-] "The Founding of Tianzhu, the Empress Yiran——The Biography of Hao Yiran"
Qianyuan 30 years, October.

Princess Tiansheng leads the country Hao Yiran, in the name of quelling the wars in the northern states and saving millions of Indians, she starts the conquest of the states in central India by the princess.

Previously, the territory of Princess Tiansheng mainly included Chennai in southern India, as well as the three surrounding states of Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, and Karnataka.

As for some small states in the southern coastal area, as well as the eastern plain area, they all belong to the sphere of influence of the Ming Empire in India.

It is impossible for the Princess Territory to fight against the Ming Empire, and naturally it will no longer expand to the east and south coast, and can only expand to the north, that is, central India.

This time, although Princess Tiansheng sent only [-] troops, they captured the largest kingdom in the south-central in three months.

After that, it took more than a year for Princess Tiansheng to conquer a large area including Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh, and Odisha.

The territory of Tiansheng Gongzhu Ridge expanded to seven provinces!

After this big stride to expand northward, Hao Yiran cautiously stopped her overseas campaigns in India.

For one thing, the northern states of India are stronger than the southern states—the northern states were originally respected by cavalry, and there were many cavalry. In recent years, they have purchased guns through various channels and annexed each other. Almost all of them can Take out tens of thousands of cavalry equipped with guns, and their combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

Second, Hao Yiran was worried that the continued expansion of the princess collar would arouse the vigilance of the Ming Empire and even suppress it.

Now the princess leader still relies a lot on the Ming Empire, and it is even more difficult to resist. If the Ming Empire is hostile and suppressed, then life will be sad.

Facts have proved that Hao Yiran's worries are not unreasonable.

In the 33rd year of Qianyuan, the cabinet of the Ming Empire made adjustments to India's trade import and export measures. Although the adjustments were not large, it still doubled the pressure on Princess Tiansheng.

Some of Princessland's industrial products are either unable to obtain some key parts, or the products cannot be sold, which makes Princessland's economic growth rate plummet.

Faced with this situation, Hao Yiran adjusted the industrial structure of the territory with his confidantes, and developed towards self-production and self-sale, or limited the market to the Indian mainland.

On the other hand, a mission was sent to the Ming Empire, nominally to lead the princess to greet Emperor Qianyuan, but in fact it was to inquire about intelligence and clear up relationships.

Although the Ming Empire only gave the princess a little color, it put pressure on the princess. Some of Hao Xiying's former ministers even secretly criticized Hao Yiran, thinking that she shouldn't make great achievements and wantonly expand three or four provinces to the north, so as to offend her. Emperor Qianyuan.

Regarding this, Hao Yiran didn't say a word, and didn't take it to heart.

Emperor Qianyuan was her uncle, he treated her very well when she was a child, and the relationship with her mother was even better.If she didn't believe it, her uncle would be angry just because she expanded the land to the north.

She thought that this time should be the Ming Empire's cabinet beating the princess leader.

As long as she doesn't continue to expand the land, the Ming Empire's cabinet will relax its suppression of the princess collar in a short time.

Two years later, in the 35th year of Qianyuan, Hao Xiying and Li Zhe finally returned to Princess Tiansheng.

After the two learned about the changes in the princess collar over the past ten years, they did not interfere in military and political affairs, but arranged for Hao Yiran's marriage.

Today, Hao Yiran is 26 years old. Even though the atmosphere is much more open than it was decades ago, a 26-year-old unmarried woman is considered an older young woman.

The most important thing is that in the past few years, during the process of handling military and political affairs, Hao Yiran had an affair with a young minister in charge of intelligence and became lovers.

His name was Shen Zhao, and his father was a middle-level official who came to India with Hao Xiying. He was a county magistrate at first, and then he was promoted to a school official in a province, but he resigned due to illness.

Shen Zhao joined the army ten years ago, and was quickly favored by the military intelligence department. Afterwards, he made many meritorious deeds, and was transferred to the Xuanjing Division led by Princess Tiansheng as a mid-level official, and thus had an intersection with Hao Yiran.

Hao Xiying and Li Zhe carefully investigated Shen Zhao's family background and personal experience, and after several interviews with Shen Zhao, they approved of this future son-in-law.

After recuperating in the princess for more than half a year and holding a rather grand wedding for Hao Yiran, Hao Xiying and Li Zhe went to sea again and set foot on a warship heading for the mainland of the Ming Empire.

This trip, the two mainly went to visit Emperor Qianyuan and other relatives, and to check Zhu Hechen's tone by the way, to see if they could get the Ming Empire's cabinet to lift the economic suppression of the Princess Land.

Perhaps Hao Xiying's "visiting relatives" measures had an effect, or the Ming cabinet had no intention of suppressing the princess for too long. The external economic environment has greatly improved.

In the 38th year of Qianyuan, Hao Xiying and Li Zhe returned to India from Daming. Soon after, they announced to the officials in the territory that they would officially pass on the title of Queen Tiansheng to Hao Yiran.

She retired and lived in seclusion with Li Zhe for "retirement".

Hao Yiran, who became the Queen of Tiansheng at the age of 29 and has a son, has a greater enthusiasm for state affairs.

Internally, she continued to work hard, trying to break through the technological blockade of the Ming Empire, and establish the princess's own heavy industry system and a local-based economic system.

Externally, she continued to expand with the princess collar.

Since the expansion on the Indian subcontinent is likely to arouse the vigilance and hostility of the Ming Empire, she will develop the navy and expand overseas.

One is to establish the overseas territory of Princess Tiansheng in Africa.

Although the current focus of the Ming Empire's overseas development is the Americas and Africa, Africa is vast, and there are still many places that have not been touched by the Ming Dynasty. This is the opportunity for the princess to lead.

The second is to strengthen business activities in Europe, follow the Ming Empire, use industrial products to hit the European market, and eat some leftovers from the Ming Empire's expansion of the European market.

Don't underestimate leftovers.

The development of European civilization was second only to China before, and it was quite prosperous.It was 200 years before the Ming Dynasty stepped onto the stage of great voyages and colonized the world—the poor people at the bottom may have no money, but the middle class, especially the high-level nobles, are definitely rich.

Taking money out of the pockets of these European nobles and rich men, Hao Yiran didn't have the slightest psychological burden.

···
Qianyuan 49 years, June.

The weather in the Indian subcontinent was extremely hot, so Hao Yiran took Shen Zhao and his two children to a summer resort in the northeast of the territory for vacation.

It is said to be a summer escape, but Hao Yiran still does not forget to deal with some important state affairs every day, and pays special attention to various internal and external intelligence.

On this day, Shen Zhao brought her a stack of newspapers from the Ming Empire.

"Since the 39th year, the crown prince was deposed for eating fushou cream. After thinking about it for nearly a year, the emperor selected nine outstanding princes and sent them to various parts of the empire to manage a county to check their qualifications.

Nearly ten years have passed, and the new crown prince has not been elected, but the political situation in the empire has become more turbulent due to the "Nine Dragons Seizing the Inheritance", and the officialdom is not as clear as before.

I read the reports in these newspapers and periodicals, under the insinuation, the emperor was probably focused on choosing the crown prince, and did not notice the changes in the empire in the past ten years. "

Hao Yiran flipped through all the key points drawn by Shen Zhao in the newspaper, and then said with a smile: "The political situation in the empire is gloomy, isn't this our opportunity?"

Shen Zhao showed a little worry, and said: "Emperor Qianyuan is the same as his mother. I don't know what benefits he got from Emperor Zhaowu back then. He is obviously in his 60s, but he still looks like 50 or [-] years old from the newspaper photos.

The dragon is not old, but the prestige is still there, no matter what thoughts you have in your heart, it is best not to act rashly. "

Hao Yiran said: "Don't worry, Mr. Xiang, I know what can be done and what can't be done.

We followed Daming and ate leftovers in Africa and Europe for ten years. The benefits we can get are running out, and we must open up new overseas territories.

Therefore, I am going to take the opportunity to send a team into the eastern part of South America and the western part of Yingzhou.

According to the information from the Waiwei of the Xuanjing Division, the two great Ming capitals are far from enough, and there are still many sites for development.

In addition, we can also try to expand our business territory in Europe secretly.Ming Dynasty's internal political situation is unstable, and these officials outside may not have the intention to target us. "

Shen Zhao knows that Hao Yiran's mind is mainly on state affairs and educating children, especially state affairs.

Now that Hao Yiran has made up his mind on this matter, it is useless for him to persuade her.Besides, Hao Yiran's actions were not too radical, so he didn't try to persuade her.

Facts have proved that Hao Yiran made the right choice.

In the next 20 years, the internal political situation of the Ming Empire went from bad to worse because of "Kowloon seizing the throne".

Although the military strength of the Ming Empire is still strong, it can still dominate the world externally, and the position of the empire on which the sun never sets is unshakable, but overseas vassal kings and officials in frontiers are gradually giving birth to dissent.

In the 60th year of Qianyuan, Hao Yiran, who was 53 years old at the time, won the support of Hao Xiying, and made a statement to Emperor Qianyuan, announcing that the "Princess Tiansheng collar" was changed to "Tiansheng Kingdom", and obtained the permission of Emperor Qianyuan.

At the same time, the internal reform of the military administration and the official system has completely transformed the constitution of the military government led by Princess Tiansheng into an independent kingdom model.

After this incident, all the kingdoms of America and Yingzhou followed suit.

The feudal vassals of the Ming Empire were called Fengwang, and they were actually an independent kingdom, but they were like vassal states, with the Ming Empire as their suzerain.

Emperor Qianyuan and the Ming Empire didn't have any special reaction to this matter, they seemed to acquiesce.

This made many vassals secretly happy, but a little uneasy.

Hao Yiran could roughly guess why Emperor Qianyuan ignored the matter of self-reliance of the vassal king.

First, although the Ming Empire is now looking at the flowers blooming and the fire cooking oil, the army and the officialdom are actually turbid.

If there is no major action, it can still bluff many feudal vassals and hostile foreign countries.But if the details were missed during the big move, it might lead to even greater turmoil, even if the sun never sets the empire's position would not be guaranteed.

Second, more than 80 years have passed since the feudal vassals began to move overseas and establish a kingship in the seventh year of Zhaowu.For example, the Yongwangling and Dingwangling of the Americas are already very strong, even surpassing the Tianshengling.Yingzhou Hui Wangling, Zhou Wangling, Lu Wangling, and Tang Wangling are equally powerful.

These royal lords have more generations of inheritance, and they are already ruled by the fourth generation of lords. They have weak feelings with the royal family of the Ming Empire, and their ambitions are more difficult to contain.

Now that the Ming Empire is weak internally, if the reorganization of the kings is organized and the kings are provoked to rebel, the Ming Empire may not be able to put down the rebellion.

Even if it can be pacified, it will inevitably take a long time, and the gains outweigh the losses.Maybe there will be even greater chaos in the mainland before the overseas peace is settled.

Under such circumstances, it is even more rare that Emperor Qianyuan can forbearably retreat a step, and he is worthy of the name of Emperor Qianyuan.

Even Hao Yiran secretly admired her.

In the 69th year of Qianyuan, Emperor Qianyuan retired and was promoted to the Supreme Emperor, who was said to be located in Zhu Yijun.

The Ming Empire was changed to Yuan Yongping.

After Zhu Yijun succeeded to the throne, in order to first deal with the local military affairs and official administration of the Ming Dynasty, he adopted a more gentle and appeaseable policy towards the overseas feudal vassals.

Hao Yiran, the queen of Tiansheng who was in her sixties, seized the opportunity to expand the territory of Tiansheng Kingdom to northern India again.

Within a few years, Madhya Pradesh, Jharkhand and even West Bengal in northern India were all captured by the Tiansheng Kingdom.

In this regard, the Tiansheng Kingdom is almost on the border with Ming's Burma Province - there are only three small kingdoms and seven or eight states separated from each other.

After this land expansion, the territory of the Tiansheng Kingdom has greatly increased again, with up to two capitals, nine provinces and seven overseas divisions!

The kingdom's pro-army (main force, equivalent to the field army, including the army and navy) is as many as 30, and the guard army (equivalent to the garrison) and overseas troops add up to 80!
With such strength, it is also a first-class power in Europe and can be ranked among the top five!
However, Hao Yiran, the 66-year-old queen of Tiansheng, also suffered a major blow after her second expansion on the Indian subcontinent.

When she led some of the kingdom's important officials to move the capital to Xinjing (Ganti), the prince (eldest son) Hao Bochun actually believed the rumors that she was assassinated and killed in the north, and under the instigation of a traitor, he ascended the throne and became king without authorization!
If this is the case, it can only show that this son is stupid.

But after that, Hao Bochun actually intended to control the [-] pro-army left behind in Tiansheng King's Capital, and cut off the supplies to the Northern Expeditionary Army, which almost caused a major defeat on the front line!
Although later, the situation in Tiansheng was controlled by several important ministers left by Hao Yiran and the wireless radio station, but this action still caused turmoil in the capital of Tiansheng King, killing and injuring tens of thousands of people!
Most importantly, Hao Bochun's last move undoubtedly revealed his purpose - he just wanted to become the new king of Tiansheng!

Under Hao Yiran's pain, the Ming people escorted the eldest son Hao Bochun to Xinjing, and let her interrogate herself.

As a result, I heard such words from Hao Bochun's mouth.

"Grandmother established Tiansheng Princess, and after more than ten years in power, she ordered her mother to be the supervisor of the country.

But my mother has been in power for 37 years, but she still refuses to pass it on to me.I have been a prince since I was young, and now that I am nearly fifty, it is still difficult to succeed to the throne.Mother asked her heart, is there a 30-year-old prince in the world? ! "

Hearing this, Hao Yiran was so angry that she spat out a mouthful of blood, and passed out on the spot.

That night, Hao Yiran woke up and summoned her fourth daughter, Hao Bochu, who was originally with the army.

No one knew what the mother and daughter talked about, but two days later, Hao Yiran made a decree, announcing that the eldest son, Hao Bochun, would be abolished as the eldest son, and imprisoned in Xinjing.

At the same time, Hao Bochun, the daughter of the fourth king (the fourth born), was established as the crown prince of the Tiansheng Kingdom, that is, the son of the daughter.

After this incident, Hao Yiran's health deteriorated, and she was often bedridden, so she gradually handed over the military and political affairs of the Tiansheng Kingdom to Hao Bochun, the eldest daughter-in-law.

In the 12th year of Yongping in the Ming Dynasty, Hao Yiran, the 74-year-old queen of Tiansheng, passed away. Her 33-year-old son, Hao Bochun, succeeded to the throne and became the third queen of Tiansheng.

In the third year of the Yongli calendar of the Ming Empire, Zhu Hechen, the former Emperor Qianyuan of the Ming Empire and the current Supreme Emperor Zhu Hechen, passed away at the age of [-]. The whole world mourns!
In the fifth year of Yongli, the 38-year-old Tiansheng Queen Hao Bochun led an army to make another northern expedition, completely destroying the Mughals who were dying and the surrounding states.

Except for some port cities along the eastern and southern coasts that were still under the control of the Ming Empire, Tiansheng had almost unified the Indian subcontinent, and its territory even exceeded the heyday of the Mughal Empire in this time and space.

In the eighth year of Yongli, the 41-year-old Hao Bochun announced that he would change the name of the country to Tianzhu, and Jianyuan Zhaoxi was the empress of Tianzhu Zhaoxi.

At the same time, his mother, Hao Yiran, Queen of Tiansheng, was named Emperor Longwu and honored as Taizu.

It is said that Empress Zhaoxi originally wanted to worship her grandmother Hao Xiying as the Taizu of Tianzhu, but because Hao Xiying was still alive and did not want to participate in this matter, Empress Zhaoxi had no choice but to give up.

Since then, Queen Hao Xiying of Tiansheng and later Emperors Longwu and Emperor Zhaoxi were all women, and the throne of the Tianzhu Empire, which is called Hao's Tianzhu in the history books, has formed the unspoken rule of passing on females and not males, making successive Haoshi Tianzhu All emperors are empresses!
