The Rise of Ming Dynasty 1646

Chapter 801 The Prince and the Princess

Emmanuel waved his hands indifferently, and said in a rhythmic voice: "I knew it by heart as early as on the boat." The respected and noble Emperor Ming, the expulsor of the barbarians, the savior of the Chinese people, and the great wise man And inventor, the god of strategy in the east. Your brilliance shines across the world, even on the other side of the distant sea, there are countless people who are singing your great...'"

"Yes, you recite it fluently." Mansdorf nodded, but said seriously, "But I still want to remind you that you should think of countermeasures in advance for possible emergencies tomorrow. After all, there is still a strong competitors want to 'play on the same stage' with you."

"Huh, the Brit?"

"It's the younger brother of the King of England, a prince. My lord, don't take it lightly."

Emmanuel turned off the tap and turned around, "Don't worry, I have a lot of advantages over him. Although my father is only the Grand Duke of Bavaria, I have the support of His Majesty Emperor Shinra behind me. It is impossible for the British to bring more than me. The gift from you is even more tempting, it is an island in the Baltic Sea, a total of [-] acres!"

Bavaria is a principality under the rule of the Holy Roman Empire. Its area is comparable to that of Scotland, and it is also a major power in Europe.However, the Emperor of Shinra, Leopold I, did not have a prince of the right age, so he could only support the son of the Grand Duke of Bavaria to come to Daming to propose a marriage. He planned that if he could marry this powerful Eastern Empire, it would greatly enhance the influence of Shinra in Europe. force.

"Besides," seeing what the special envoy wanted to say, he immediately preempted him loudly, "I am more sincere than him! I traveled thousands of miles to the Eastern Empire, and that guy Stuart didn't even want to leave the British Isle. A distant cousin to act as a representative.

"And how magnanimous it is that I even allow my bride not to convert to Christianity! The Prince of England will never do that!"

Speaking of this, he suddenly revealed a look of longing, "It is said that the eldest princess of Ming Kingdom is so beautiful that people's hearts tremble. Once anyone sees her eyes, they will immediately be unable to look away...

"Did you know? I heard that because the Russian prince met her, he went back and asked the Tsar to agree to all the requirements of the Ming Dynasty, such as the ownership of the land in the Yenisei River Basin, etc., as a dowry to marry her."

"Yes, I've heard that too." Mansdorf said, "But he never saw Her Highness the Princess again. Hey, forget it, I wish you all the best, Your Excellency the Duke."

"thank you for your blessing."

……

Nanjing Railway Station.

A train slowly stops.A team of guards got off the car first, and they exchanged a few words with the imperial soldiers on the platform, and then opened another car door.

A handsome, tall young man of eighteen or nineteen years old got out of the car.

Shi Lin immediately went up to greet him, and saluted respectfully, "I pay my respects to His Highness the Crown Prince. Your Highness, you are back."

"Ah, Uncle Shi, why are you here?" Zhu Juhuan suddenly looked around, "Could it be that Father is here?"

Shi Lin led him through the ranks of soldiers from the imperial camp, and then walked around to a room on the side of the station hall, bowed to a seemingly ordinary four-wheeled carriage and said, "Your Majesty, His Highness the Crown Prince has arrived."

The door of the carriage opened, and Zhu Linming, who was already middle-aged, got out of the carriage. Before the prince could salute, she grabbed him and kept looking him up and down, "How are you, are you not injured?"

Knowing that his father was asking about his assassination in Japan, Zhu Juhuan hurriedly said, "Father, I'm fine. Fortunately, there are a few tricks taught by Mr. Wang in the early years, so there is no danger."

Zhu Linmin nodded, "Master Wang Laixian is also getting old, you should go back and look at him, and thank him for teaching the skills."

He pulled his son into the car, closed the car door, and said: "Your mother heard that you were assassinated, and she was so anxious that she couldn't eat or sleep for days and nights, and complained all day that I shouldn't let you go to Japan for inspection. You wait You have to comfort her well."

"Yes, Erchen keep in mind."

"By the way, did the assassin catch it?"

"Father, he was shot dead on the spot by the guards of Uesugi's family. However, according to Governor Lou's inquiries, most of it was done by the Maori family, who wanted to blame Uesugi." The prince said, "Father, it's just that this assassin got the fifteenth style. Revolver guns must be strictly investigated by the Military Weapons Bureau and the army."

The [-]-style revolver is a new gun developed by Daming in recent years. It is light and convenient to fire with a mercury flash cap. It can fire six rounds in succession.Now it has flowed into Japan and was used to assassinate the prince, there must be something strange in it.

"You have to check it out."

The prince said again: "By the way, Royal Father, in fact, it is a good thing that my minister was assassinated this time."

"Oh? What do you say?"

"Returning to my father, my ministers inspected various places in Japan, and I saw that although the Japanese were very respectful to Ming Dynasty, they still secretly acquiesced that their emperor was the co-lord." Zhu Juhuan said, "My father often said that the Japanese were hungry wolves lying on the side of Ming Dynasty. , It must be completely maimed and subdued. My minister thinks that this assassination can be brought to the head of the Japanese Emperor."

Zhu Lin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "You, sometimes you really look like your mother."

The two father and son chatted for a while, Zhu Juhuan said: "Father, my son heard that the imperial court is going to use troops against Moxi?"

Zhu Linmei nodded, "The railway has been built to Hami, and the Zhungeer Ministry is secretly colluding with the Raksha people, ready to move. I am going to act first to eliminate disasters and unforeseen circumstances."

The prince immediately cupped his hands and said: "Father, my son, please order to go out with the army!"

"You?" Zhu Linmi shook her head subconsciously, "No, how can you fight..."

"My son has studied in the military school for four years, and marching and fighting are still..."

"Four years?" Zhu Linmei laughed, "Three years were spent in the Naval Academy, and the Royal Military Academy was less than one year."

"Father, all things in the army are similar. When you were as old as my son, you already swept the Jiangxi captives by yourself. Besides, the best school is on the battlefield."

Zhu Linmi looked at him seriously, and after a while, she said, "If I really let you go, what position do you plan to ask for?"

"My son can be an alternate staff governor."

Zhu Linmi nodded, "Okay, just for your self-knowledge, I'll let you go." The prince inherited Mu Zhiqing's intelligence, and has been influenced by Zhu Linmi since he was a child, so it's really no problem to be a consultant.

"Then tell me again, how do you think this battle should be fought?"

"Returning to the emperor's father, my son thought that the main force would be to recruit [-] Japanese soldiers and Manila soldiers, and use [-] Daming field army supervisors as a frontal response to the enemy. Then use [-] elite field troops to go around Mobei..."

……

Forbidden City, Yikun Palace.

Zhenzhen taught a ten-year-old boy how to practice swordsmanship, and said patiently: "Miao'er, my mother has repeated it to you more than ten times, and the tip of the sword should be picked up... Let me tell you, your brother Huan is like you!" At this age, I have already mastered [-]% of my mother's swift sword skills."
