Chongzhen Wiretapping System

Chapter 803
In this way, this matter is actually a matter of mutual consent.However, in terms of specific operations, it is necessary to show Daming's broad mind.

Therefore, not long after, Fang Yizhi returned to the post station, found Anders who had just settled down, and replied solemnly: "Your Majesty's will, your two countries are brothers, and there is no need to use the matter of marriage." It shows the friendship between the two countries."

"..." Anders was stunned when he heard it. At first he thought he had heard it wrong.After all, he hasn't asked for anything yet, he just said that he would send the princess to marry him, and the dowry is also very generous.Such a good thing, don't let it go for nothing!

Seeing Fang Yizhi's expression, Anders came back to his senses and knew that he had heard correctly. He couldn't help but feel very troubled.He never thought he would fail in this matter.This is a bad start, so how can we talk about what happens next?If the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty is not interested, then the guarantee he has secured with His Highness the King and the great strategy he has conceived will not be realized!
Thinking of this, he became a little anxious, and hurriedly asked Fang Yizhi: "The friendship between our two countries is good, but His Royal Highness the king of my country admires the prosperity, wealth and enviable civilization of Ming Dynasty, so even if you are born As a father, I also want to find a good home for my most beautiful and beloved daughter."

Speaking of this, Anders thought of something, so he quickly looked for it, took out a thick gift list, handed it to Fang Yizhi and said: "This is the dowry list prepared by the king of the country for His Royal Highness, not to mention Colombo and Mumbai, just other gifts, is worth millions of pounds."

Fang Yizhi listened and took the list.

When Anders saw the list in Fang Yizhi's hands, he quickly said: "It can be seen that the king of the country really wants to have a good home for Her Royal Highness, and really wants Her Royal Highness to marry in Daming."

On the surface, Fang Yizhi didn't change his expression, but he was still very surprised in his heart.It's not what Anders said, but the emperor had told him before that the Portuguese envoys would definitely try their best to marry their princess.

Thinking of this, Fang Yizhi held the list of gifts in both hands, and said to Anders: "However, Her Royal Highness Princess of your country is only 13 years old, and the emperor issued a decree a few years ago, in order to let young people have a better life." There are more opportunities to learn, and it is stipulated that no matter whether a man or a woman is a man, he must be of full age before he can marry! And if a woman gets married at an older age, it will be easier to have children."

"..." Anders was speechless again. How could he send a girl to his door? Why was it so difficult to send her to him?Not to mention how the princess looks, the dowry alone is probably in high demand in Europe!
Thinking of this, suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, Anders found a reason to talk again.

Seeing this, Fang Yizhi expressed Emperor Chongzhen's final intention and said: "Since your country is so sincere, if Daming refuses again, it will be a failure to welcome guests. The emperor's intention is that he does not want to violate the just-made policy." The covenant of brothers between the two countries, therefore, the princess of your country will marry me as the side concubine, His Highness the Crown Prince of Ming Dynasty, how about it?"

"Marry His Highness the Crown Prince?" Anders couldn't help but ponder upon hearing this.

The prince will definitely inherit the throne of the Ming emperor in the future. Although it is not absolute, there should be no problem. That is to say, he will marry the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty.But no matter what, Portugal and the Ming Empire are finally in-laws!

"Master Fang, please wait a moment." After thinking for a while, Anders said wisely to the other party, "Let me report this matter to Her Royal Highness, and I will reply later."

Fang Yizhi nodded in understanding, put the gift list back on the table, and waited quietly for the result.

…………

Catherine had just settled in and was interested in the accommodation and customs in the Far East that were completely different from those in Europe, when Anders came.

After listening to Anders' report, she couldn't help but be surprised: "Do women need to be able to get married? Is it to give people more time to study and reduce the risk of women giving birth?"

"Probably that's what it means!" Anders nodded and replied honestly.

For women, these rules are definitely welcome, even if Catherine is from the west.After five years of marriage, she has such a long time to understand the Far Eastern Empire. As for whether she will marry the current Emperor of Ming Dynasty or the future Emperor of Ming Dynasty, she really doesn't care much.

But after all, she knew her father's situation, so she suppressed her excitement and expressed her concerns.No matter what, the relationship with Daming must be improved to the next level.

After receiving Catherine's final statement, Anders breathed a sigh of relief, and came to discuss with Fang Yizhi, saying that it is okay to marry the prince as a side concubine, but at least one must have a title.

Fang Yizhi couldn't decide on this matter. When he reported to the Emperor Chongzhen, he finally decided to get married first, and the title was fixed, and the marriage would be five years later.

Just like that, the prince was busy with the steam battleship, and suddenly he learned that he had a foreign concubine.To be honest, he didn't really care much about this and continued to be busy with things that interested him.

But in the court, there was a meeting about his affairs.

In the Wenhua Palace, Anders is performing in front of Emperor Chongzhen and senior officials of Ming Dynasty.

First, he eulogized the friendship between the two countries, and then emphasized that now that they have married their sons and daughters, the friendship between the two countries has taken a step further.And he also said that since the marriage is already engaged, the princess's dowry will be given first, and there is no problem in handing it over to Daming earlier.

For these, Emperor Chongzhen always kept smiling, after all, this is a good thing.Of course, the senior officials of Ming Dynasty were also happy about this.The atmosphere in Wenhua Palace was very good for a while.

Then, Anders saw that the atmosphere was getting better, and began to complain, saying that the situation in Portugal is very bad, but he can still hold on, and he just hopes that Daming can reach out to help.

Isn’t it according to Eastern customs that a betrothal gift is required for an engagement?Then there are no other requirements. It just depends on whether the Ming Dynasty can send troops to join Portugal to kill the Spaniards in America.Anyway, the Spaniards massacred the people of the Ming Dynasty several times, and they were the enemies of the Ming Dynasty.Moreover, during the Battle of Luzon that year, some Spaniards fled to America.

When he got excited, he spoke passionately and generously to Emperor Chongzhen: "The king of my country admires His Majesty the Ming Emperor very much for his kindness in loving the people like a son. Especially I heard that His Majesty the Ming Emperor once said that those who offend the Ming Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are. ! Therefore, after hearing that the Spaniards killed the Ming people in Luzon but fled back to the Americas, I came up with this idea. Your two countries will unite to eliminate all the Spaniards in the Americas to avenge the Ming people, and at the same time also Cut off Spain’s coffers.”

Seeing that Emperor Chongzhen seemed noncommittal, Anders quickly added: "I am willing to pilot the route from the Ming Dynasty to the Americas. I don't say absolutely. Basically, there is no big problem in crossing the Pacific. Moreover, I have detailed military information in the Americas. We can also do our best to provide it. After the two countries eliminated Spain, South America will belong to the country, and the rest will belong to the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty does not know that the richest part of the American continent is Central America, and there is no problem in giving it to the Ming Dynasty. "

After finishing speaking, he felt a little uneasy. Looking at the expression of Emperor Chongzhen and the expressions of senior officials of the Ming Dynasty, he was afraid that after so much preparation had been made, so much effort had been made, and even the princess had been sent away, don't worry about this critical moment. Time got stuck.

In fact, he was thinking too much.

Emperor Chongzhen did not say that he would definitely conquer the American continent.

In addition, as far as the senior officials of the Ming Dynasty in the Wenhua Palace were concerned, they had already known Emperor Chongzhen's determination to expand the territory.They had already known about Daming's expedition to the American continent.

Not to mention that the Spaniards from Luzon fled to the American continent, as well as the remnants of the former Japanese captives who fled to the American continent.As Anders said, one of Daming's slogans now: "Even if you are far away, you will be killed. That's not a joke. No matter where the enemy flees, they must be chased."

To do this, the biggest difficulty for Daming is that he is not familiar with the Pacific Ocean and the situation on the other side of the ocean.Now, the Franz robot came up to make up for this shortcoming. Xue Guoguan and others knew with their toes that the emperor would definitely agree.

Since the emperor will definitely agree, then Xue Guoguan and others will naturally not object.At least for them now, they are absolutely confident in the combat power of the Ming Army.

So, one by one, they expressed their support for sending troops.

Emperor Chongzhen didn't say a word, and after they had said it, he nodded and said, "If that's the case, let's send troops."

In fact, for Daming, the most ideal state is not to send troops now, but to wait for a generation to digest the land that has been annexed first, so that Daming's manpower and materials can be enriched.

However, Emperor Chongzhen couldn't trust the future emperor of Ming Dynasty, and he couldn't trust the courtiers after Daming. If he didn't expand as much as possible while he was still alive, then he would be sorry for time travel and Goldfinger.

The specific details of sending troops to the Americas will certainly not be discussed at this meeting.Convinced, Anders withdrew happily.

But Emperor Chongzhen still had something to do, and he immediately said to his subordinates: "I want to innovate the policy of the Ming Dynasty's vassal after this time when I send troops to America."

Upon hearing this, many courtiers could smell it, and understood that the emperor had definitely planned it long ago.Otherwise, it would be impossible to talk about it so quickly.

Sure enough, when they heard that Emperor Chongzhen announced the new vassal policy, they immediately understood that the princes had not accepted the vassal status, and they were actually waiting for this!

For civil servants like them, getting Zong Fan out would be the best thing.Therefore, they naturally also strongly supported it.

In June of the 24th year of Chongzhen, the imperial court announced several major events at once, which immediately caused a sensation in the world.

　I was originally going to marry Emperor Chongzhen, but you said you wanted to marry the prince. Yes, then marry the prince.
