I really don't want to be emperor at the end of Ming Dynasty

Chapter 460 The idiot official of the Ming Dynasty
Chapter 489

Spain and the Ming Dynasty quickly completed the handover of sovereignty over this land. The Spaniards had little interest in this land without gold or silver mines. On the contrary, they were more fascinated by Mexico.

Giving up a 150 million square kilometer great plain really shocked Shen Qidong and others. He thought a battle was needed this time. Unexpectedly, after the Spaniards signed the document, they evacuated them as promised. A small number of immigrants on this land.

On this land, there are plantations developed by the Spanish, with a total of 160 three large and small estates. This is the only trace of modern civilization on this land.

Different from the positioning of Australia and Luzon, in this land, the Ming Dynasty's methods were relatively mild, because the Indians were of the yellow race and looked similar to the Ming Dynasty people. As long as they changed their living customs and language, they could assimilate them.

After the Ming Dynasty fleet led by Shen Qidong built the Xinming Port, they successively sent out many more expedition teams to build roads and explore at the same time, trying to contact the indigenous people on the La Plata Plain to see if they could be brought to the Come here yourself.

At this time, the Indians on the La Plata Plain had been wiped out by the Spanish massacre and plague. They were full of vigilance and hatred towards all outsiders, and the Ming Dynasty's expeditions encountered their attacks one after another. .

However, the battle-hardened Ming army easily resolved these attacks and captured many indigenous people.Shen Qidong did not embarrass these natives. Instead, he gave them some medicine, food and cotton cloth as gifts to express goodwill.

The indigenous people who accepted the gifts soon realized that these outsiders with the same skin color as them had no ill intentions towards them, and gradually came into contact with the Ming Dynasty. During the contact, their yellow skin and black eyes gave them a great advantage. .

After suffering enough from the white people, the indigenous people of La Plata felt a natural affinity for these people with the same skin color as them, and the relationship between the two parties soon became harmonious.

Shen Qidong showed the indigenous people the powerful combat effectiveness of the Ming Royal Army. Although it was only a regiment with only thirty rocket launchers, the indigenous people were still dumbfounded and horrified. After showing off his force, he expressed to the indigenous people that he The empire has millions of troops like this. Of course, this is just bragging.

Even now that the Ming Dynasty has completed the de facto basic unification after taking over Shaanxi, the Ming Dynasty now only has 39 army brigades, as well as four main fleets, three ocean-going combined fleets, and the navy and army combined total more than 89 people. , 90 is approximately equal to one million, and there is actually nothing wrong with it.

They heard that the Ming Dynasty had a million-strong army, but they really couldn't imagine what a million-strong army was.

Shen Qidong took the opportunity to tell them that they all had yellow skin and black eyes and were one family thousands of years ago. As long as they were willing to become vassals of the Ming Dynasty and accept its rule, the Ming Dynasty was willing to send troops to ensure their safety!
The La Plata natives agreed without even thinking about it.They have no concept of a country or even a clear concept of an ethnic group. After experiencing a near-genocide disaster, they welcome any force willing to provide them with protection.

As a result, the Xinming Management Committee was established, and the dozen tribal chiefs who had contact with Daming were elected as members of the management committee. The people of Daming established the first city on the land of Xinming, which was Xinjincheng.

The new Jincheng was not built according to the pattern of the city in Jinzhou, but started to be built according to the pattern of Beijing's Four-Nine Cities. Of course, there is only one place name now. The so-called city wall is actually a circle of barbed wire. Due to the heavy rain, it can only be built. It is too difficult to build a wooden house and develop a new life.

The main force in building the new Jincheng was actually the local indigenous people. There was no way, there were too few people in the Ming Dynasty, so they formed more than 300 exploration teams. As the exploration deepened, more and more mysteries of this continent were revealed to them. in front of my eyes.

Jaguar warriors living in the tropical rainforest, the pyramids submerged in the rainforest, the confusing Mayan civilization, the heart-pounding Inca treasures, and the native Indians who drink blood from their hair... all of these are weird or bizarre, and they all fascinate him. The European colonialists' persecution of this continent also alarmed the Ming Dynasty.

Especially the Spaniards. Under their swords and axes, one after another ancient ethnic groups fell in a pool of blood, one after another a somewhat fantasy country turned into ashes, and one after another once prosperous cities fell into ruins. They are ruins, and all this is just because they are stronger than these natives who are still in the Stone Age!

White immigrants have become the owners of this land, and the former owners of this land have either been moved to more desolate mountains or moved to graves.

For example, Mexico had a population of 400 million before the Spanish arrived in this land. However, in just 100 years, the Spanish very efficiently reduced the total population of Mexico to 30 million. What happened during this period? If you really want to write it down, it would really be anti-humanity.

For thousands of years, the American continent has been isolated from the circle of civilization by the ocean and has become a barren land. Due to various reasons, the progress of civilization here has been so slow that it is simply unimaginable.

Relatively speaking, South America, which has mountains, rainforests, less cultivated land, and a larger population, has evolved faster. Although it is still the Stone Age, they have created their own unique writing, religion, and laws, and have advanced in mathematics and astronomy. They have made extraordinary achievements in the fields of architecture, architecture, and other fields, so much so that historians cannot believe that these achievements were achieved by a race that was still in the Stone Age and even bronze was not yet popular.

As for the vast and sparsely populated North American continent, due to slow population growth and no pressure on cultivated land, they have not even touched the edge of civilization. They have no cities of their own, no writing of their own, let alone any agricultural civilization. If we talk about South American Indians, Human civilization is backward, so the North American Indians are not even civilized.

At both ends of the entire continent, the end with poor conditions developed much better than the end with better conditions. This phenomenon is unique in thousands of years of history.

Of course, the two ends are not inseparable. No matter which period, there will always be some desperate guys paddling canoes along the coastline to explore the unknown world. Many of them died in the sea, but still Some were lucky enough to reach the North American continent, communicate with the indigenous people living in the North American continent, and even conduct relatively primitive barter trade.

The Ming Dynasty was able to communicate well with the Indians, or it was because of misunderstandings. Yes, the dragon flag of the Ming Dynasty was very similar to the Quetzalcoatl of the Indians. As a result, when the Indians knew that the Ming Dynasty came from a distant place, and they The Ming people, who had the same yellow skin and dark eyes, drove away the evil white people and rescued countless Indians from suffering.

Therefore, the Ming people here became the envoys, or saviors, of the indigenous people.

This is also milder than the Ming people's way. By following the Ming people, they can get salt, silk, sharp swords, grain and fruits.

Of course, none of this can be given away for free. They need to work hard or pay for their own prey. Even if the Ming people use a small bag of salt, about twenty or thirty kilograms of salt, in exchange for a cow they hunt, compared to the white devil Generally speaking, the people of Daming are so friendly.

For sailors who have been drifting at sea for a long time, canned food is their most hated food, but the problem is that this is the favorite food of the indigenous people. They are willing to use hundreds of kilograms of bananas in exchange for a canned food. The corn is replaced by a piece of cloth. This cloth is cool and breathable, much better than their fur or grass skirt.

It may be a bit excessive to describe the Indians as primitive society, but their level of civilization is really not much better than primitive society.The American Indians who have been isolated from the circle of world civilization have lived like this for thousands of years. They do not know that the world has begun the industrial revolution, and their backward civilization will be the first sacrifices of the industrial revolution. .

...Beijing, the Forbidden City.

"what time is it?"

Xiang Hui looked at the phone next to her: "It's almost six o'clock..."

Cheng Shijie hurriedly put on his clothes and said, "I won't sleep anymore. My bones will be sore if I sleep any longer!"

Now Beizhili has entered the spring plowing period. As the regent of the Ming Dynasty, Cheng Shijie and Princess Xiang Hui began to pretend to plow the land. However, Cheng Shijie had not had to work in person for a long time. With thousands of pairs of eyes watching, Cheng Shijie could only bite the bullet and do it. live.

Fortunately, Cheng Shijie had too many concubines in name. Except for Yang Yunniang, Zhu Weiti and Jin Qiaoer, they all went to work in the fields, and crops were finally planted on more than ten acres of land.

Xiang Hui had to compromise with Cheng Shijie because she saw for the first time the life-threatening spirit of Ming officials. Because of Xiang Hui's jealousy, Cheng Shijie had not dared to touch other women in these years. Until now, Cheng Shijie only has one son and one son. Daughter, to ordinary people, his wantonness can be regarded as having both sons and daughters.

But the problem is that Cheng Shijie is the regent of the Ming Dynasty. Not to mention that the infant mortality rate is too high nowadays, adults may also discover accidents. Sun Zhiwan, the prime minister of the country, suffered the pain of losing a child.

Sun Zhiman's third son had not had time to name him yet, because he wanted to wait until his son was a hundred days old before his grandfather Sun Chengzong could name him. As a result, when the son was 43 days old, the child stopped breathing.

Under the stimulation of this accident, he was going crazy.

It doesn't matter that Sun Zhiman died of a son, but Cheng Shijie only had one son. If the Cheng family dragon was gone, the sky would fall in the Ming Dynasty. Now Cheng Shijie is still young and can still have a son. If in a few years, Cheng Shijie becomes older. Some, then there is absolutely nothing we can do.

Sun Zhidao directly brought cabinet members and six subjects to more than 300 people including Shizhong and Yushi Yanguan to see Xiang Hui.

Xiang Hui was a little puzzled. What did Sun Zhiwan, the concubine, do when he saw her?Since she came to the Ming Dynasty, she has not interfered with anything Cheng Shijie did.

So, Xiang Hui met Sun Zhiman in Kunning Palace. Then, Xiang Hui saw a shocking scene. A total of two to three hundred officials knelt down in front of her.

This is forcing the palace in front of Xiang Hui.

Sun Zhiwan's memorial was written eloquently for several hundred words, but after being reminded by the palace maid, Xiang Hui realized that it was Sun Zhiwan who asked her not to be jealous for the sake of the country and the country. For the sake of the eternal prosperity of the Cheng family, the Cheng family should have many children. Do Sun.

Xiang Hui had never encountered such a situation before. She wanted Cheng Shijie to handle the matter, but the problem was that these officials had a nervous breakdown and hit their heads against the pillars.

The sound of "bang bang bang" was heard incessantly. As a result, more than a dozen people were killed in the local area and nearly a hundred people were injured. Xiang Hui was frightened. Was their life not life?

Xiang Hui finally realized the horror of customs, while Zhu Weiti came up with another plan, which was to marry Cheng Jialong and have children. As long as the Cheng family's incense continues, there will be no turmoil in the country. The Ming Dynasty has been in turmoil for too long. Sorry, the people have only lived a good life for a few days, and they really can't stand the trouble.

If Xiang Hui doesn't like some of them, he can replace them with someone from Xiang Hui.

Xiang Hui was forced into a dead end.

In desperation, Xiang Hui decided to compromise with Cheng Shijie and allow other women to share her husband. Although Xiang Hui had not experienced the political struggles of the Ming Dynasty, she understood that there were some things that she could not stop. The relationship between husband and wife is actually no longer pure.

To be fair, Xiang Hui doesn't understand politics, but the problem is that she has also watched many TV series, especially the fight between Wu Meiniang and Queen Wang. She has read movie reviews and listened to interpretations by professionals. Watching Wu Meiniang is a personal effort. In fact, This represents the power behind her and her origin, which directly determines her victory.

The same is true for Xiang Hui now. She has blocked the interests of many people. If she continues, anything may happen in this most filthy prison. None of Emperor Tianqi's children survived. This is definitely not a hygiene issue. It's not a genetic problem, but many people don't want the descendants of Emperor Tianqi to live, step by step.

Xiang Hui compromised with Cheng Shijie, but this compromise was conditional. Xiang Hui wanted to have another child, whether a boy or a girl, and Sun Zhili and others also supported him in becoming the queen.

At the same time, Cheng Jialong's biological son must be the prince and the future emperor.

Xiang Hui decided to squeeze Cheng Shijie dry first.

Cheng Shijie was afraid of darkness during this period, because every time it got dark, he would feel pain and happiness.

Of course, Cheng Shijie was not alone in pain and happiness at this time, but also Li Zhixiang. The Ming Navy organized an expedition to India. However, the problem was that the fleet encountered a hurricane just after leaving the Strait of Malacca and entering the Indian Ocean.

The thousand-ton giant ship was like a small boat, passing by the god of death under the shocking waves, and was surrounded by dangers.
