After the live broadcast, the fourth elder brother changed to take the group favorite script

Na Ren didn't know that she had been exposed. Ever since she talked about this matter with the imperial concubine, she became more and more unscrupulous.

"Your Majesty, it's been a month, how are you thinking?"

Seeing Na Ren with a determined expression, the imperial concubine chuckled lightly, "Looking at you, I seem to be sure that Ben Gong will cooperate with you. Are you not afraid that I will tell the emperor?"

This is also what she couldn't figure out the most. She had a bad attitude towards Na Ren, so why did she recognize her.It can't be because of Longkodo, right?

With the intelligence displayed by Naren, that's too funny.

Returning the imperial concubine with a smile, Naren asked back: "Will you?" Before the imperial concubine could answer, she gave herself the answer. "You won't, let's not talk about it. Only you and I know about it. As long as I don't recognize the emperor, I won't do anything to me. Besides, I am the Tong family now. As long as you are not afraid of hurting the entire Tong family, go ahead and say it. "

The latter is the reason why she is so confident.Even if she doesn't understand the laws of the Qing Dynasty, she knows about the crime of treason, but it will punish the nine clans.If it is found out that she has treasonous intentions, will the emperor let the Tong family go?She felt that as long as the imperial concubine was not stupid enough, she wouldn't say it. Not only would the imperial concubine not speak, but she would help her to hide it.

After a long silence, the imperial concubine asked, "Does Longkodo know?" Not just Longkodo, she wanted to know whether other members of the Tong family were involved in this matter, and she needed Na Ren to say the answer herself.

Gazing at the imperial concubine strangely, Naren asked back: "What do you think?" If the rest of the Tong family knew, she wouldn't need to find ways to avoid Madam Tong and others and meet the imperial concubine alone.

And Longkodo, how much Longkodo hates the fourth elder brother, she knows in her heart that if Longkodo knows that she wants to support the fourth elder brother, even if it is just a trick, Longkodo will probably not agree.

She wouldn't tell anyone until she thought of a surefire solution.

She didn't realize that after hearing her words, the imperial concubine's tense nerves relaxed.Then the imperial concubine gave her answer, "I can't agree to your alliance,"

Raising her hand to prevent Na Ren from speaking, she continued: "Don't interrupt, you listen to me first, to be honest, I am very moved by your proposal, you are right, I am from the Tong family, why should I compare myself to others?" Lower your head. Her Hesheli's sons can be crown princes, why can't my son Yinzhen? It's just that the conditions you gave are too harsh, Mongolia is too far away from the capital, and your so-called support is actually of no help to us. Unless, unless you have other chips."

The imperial concubine smiled meaningfully.

Naren's eyes were filled with brilliance, she knew that the imperial concubine would be moved.Unfortunately, apart from Mongolia's support, she really has no cards at all.

"Don't worry, Left and Right Yinzhen is still young, you can go back and think about it slowly."

After Na Ren left, Kangxi came out from behind the screen beside the imperial concubine.He looked gloomy at the closed door.

Today, the wife who ordered her to enter the palace to pay her respects, he purposely came here early to hide behind, just to observe Na Ren's performance.And what the imperial concubine said was what he explained before. He wanted to know more than the imperial concubine whether the Tong family had participated in it, and how many people Mongolia had placed in his Qing dynasty.

Seeing that Kangxi was silent, the imperial concubine said: "The concubine is incompetent, Na Ren doesn't want her to be so careless and careless, she may still be on guard against the concubine, so..."

Raising his hand to stop the imperial concubine's next words, he said, "This is not Aifei's fault, you have done a good job."

Na Ren's performance today also impressed him. This is far from the arrogant and domineering woman in his impression. She is courageous and resourceful. At this time, Na Ren is a qualified member of the royal family.

It's normal for her to hide something from the imperial concubine, but Kangxi had already considered this point, and the reason why she let the imperial concubine to test it was just a fluke.

He didn't feel disappointed that nothing came out of the test.

"Report to the emperor, Tianjin Wei has come to report that a mission claiming to be from the Netherlands is seeking to see him."

Dutch Mission?

The ministers looked at each other in blank dismay. They knew about Belgium, Spain, and Portugal, but they didn't know where the Netherlands came from.

Suo'etu snorted coldly, "All cats and dogs come to my Daqing, my Huangguowei, how can he see it as soon as he wants to see it." After finishing speaking, he cupped his hands at Kangxi, "Your Majesty, Nan Huairen has learned from the past, what do you think this is?" The Netherlands must have no good intentions, please think twice, Your Majesty."

Kangxi was ruthless in the case of Nan Huairen. Except for those who were found to have ulterior motives, all other foreigners were expelled from the Qing Dynasty by him, and he threatened not to accept outsiders to preach or do business.Now that two or three years have passed, the original decision must have been passed back to their home country.

Now that their mission is here again, they want to know that the other party is ambitious and can't let go of the fat of the Qing Dynasty.

Mingzhu stood up. Unlike Suo'etu, he had a deep research on these Western countries.He saluted Kangxi first, and then said to Suo Etu: "Master Suo, the Netherlands is not a cat or a dog. This country has been ruled by Spain in the early years, and it just became independent a few years ago. It is rumored that his navigation industry is very developed. Nan Huairen mentioned that this country is known in the West as the 'sea coachman', which shows its navigating skills."

"Most of the countries in the West have connections with pirates, and the Netherlands is no exception. Since the West is eyeing our Qing Dynasty, it must be to test the strength of the Qing Dynasty by sending envoys here this time. The slave thinks this is an opportunity, something we understand. local opportunity."

Most of what I learned about the West before was from missionaries such as Nan Huairen. Those people were malicious towards the Qing Dynasty, and what they said may not be true. Westerners want to test them. Why can't they test them through the Netherlands? The west?

Kangxi was full of approval, "Mingzhu is right. Everyone knows that Spain is strong, and the Netherlands, which can become independent from Spain, must have more troops than Spain. If we can make the Netherlands fearful, other countries will not dare to attack it easily." The idea of ​​the Qing Dynasty. We have just solved the internal problems of the Qing Dynasty, and the foreign troubles are still very serious, so it is really not suitable to meet each other in arms."

He is sure that as long as the Qing Dynasty is weak, the West will definitely take advantage of it, snatch the Qing Dynasty's territory, and turn the Qing Dynasty into their colony.And Mongolia will not let go of such a good opportunity, and the Qing Dynasty will be attacked by the enemy.

Only by showing their strength, making the other party fearful, and giving Qing some time to develop can the situation be broken.

"Mingzhu, I ordered you to take someone to meet the Dutch envoy. Remember to show our demeanor of a big country and a strong country."

"The slave obeys the order."

The news of the Dutch mission's arrival quickly spread, and the fourth elder brother asked curiously: "Brother, is this Dutchman the same as Nan Huairen and the others, with yellow hair and blue eyes? Are they also here to 'preach'?" ?”

'Preaching' is not a good word. In the eyes of today's fourth elder brother, these two words are equivalent to spies, who are here to spy on the Qing Dynasty.It's just that they are too good-looking to sneak in quietly, and this is why they are under the guise of 'missionary'.

"Probably, the fourth brother is interested in them? When they come to the capital, Huang Ama will definitely hold a banquet, and you will be able to see them then." Fighting and not being able to fight, the elder brother is not interested in them.

The fourth elder brother shook his head, he was not interested in the Dutch, but in their ships.The Qing Dynasty was won on horseback. There was no fear of anyone in land warfare, but never in sailing.The reason why the Japanese people in the southeast coast are rampant is that the ships and navy of the Qing Dynasty are weak.

The Netherlands is not far away from the Qing Dynasty. Their shipbuilding technology must be very advanced if they can reach it safely. If they can get their technology...

Yinzhen didn't know about this matter, his thoughts coincided with those of Kangxi, Mingzhu and others. The Qing Dynasty was full of talents, and they all wanted to study something from the Dutch mission.

It took only two days from Tianjin Wei to the capital, and two days passed in the blink of an eye.

In order to show respect for the Dutch mission, Kangxi ordered the elder brother to greet him outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony with all the ministers and emperor elder brothers.Mingzhu said to the people in the mission: "This is the elder brother Yinti, the eldest son of the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Big brother, this is the ambassador Adrian of the mission."

Adrian stepped forward with open arms and was about to hug his elder brother. This is the etiquette on their side. Regardless of whether a man or a woman meets, they must kiss each other's cheeks three times.Big brother is not their special way of greeting. When he sees the other party coming up, he hugs him, and he doesn't want to grab the other party's arm with his backhand and twist it.

"Presumptuous, what do you want to do?" Are foreigners so strange?Come up and hug what kind of stinky problem.Who can hug his elder brother?

Feeling the other party's eyes asking for help, Mingzhu crossed her arms and said slowly: "Brother misunderstood, this is their special way of greeting in Holland." After briefly talking about Dutch etiquette, Mingzhu retreated and stood still .

The fourth elder brother patted his chest with lingering fear, it was too dangerous to run errands, not only was he busy every day, but also worried about being kissed by a bearded man one day.Looking at the elder brother sympathetically, the fourth elder brother shrank behind the third elder brother.Fortunately, he is neither the eldest son nor the crown prince. There are three older brothers in front of him, so he probably won't have a day like his eldest brother, right? ?

Yinzhen thought with some uncertainty.

Knowing that he had misunderstood, the elder brother reluctantly let go of the opponent's hand, and said with a blank face: "We don't have this kind of etiquette in the Qing Dynasty. In our Qing Dynasty, this is the behavior of a disciple. It’s a board. Since you are envoys to my Qing Dynasty, how can you not learn about my Qing customs in advance, which is disrespectful to my Qing Dynasty.”

The eldest brother spoke Manchu, and the other party couldn't understand and could only look at Mingzhu, and Mingzhu translated it for him verbatim.

As the overlord of the sea in the West, the Dutch envoy had thought about countless possibilities before coming here, but he never expected that he would be given several blows by the other party as soon as he arrived.First, this guy named Mingzhu led thousands of forbidden soldiers to meet him. All the forbidden soldiers were wearing armor, with huge bows and crossbows on their backs, and swords hanging from their waists.

At that time, he also ridiculed that the opponent did not have hot weapons and was still using worn-out crossbows.Passing by a small town and learning that there are mountain bandits nearby, he expresses his intention to go and suppress the bandits, and Mingzhu readily agrees.

None of them brought self-defense guns when they came this time. They originally wanted to show it in front of this group of 'bumpkins', but it turned out that their foreign guns hadn't been loaded yet, and the opponents shot a few arrows at them. The power was no better than theirs. The guns are poor.The most important thing is that the opponent's bow and crossbow can shoot continuously, but their guns must stop and install bullets after a single shot.

So it's better to stand up.

After finally coming to the capital, I thought I would see the emperor immediately, but the emperor still didn't come, and it was some kind of big brother who came.After the explanation, he realized that this elder brother was only the eldest son and not the crown prince.

I think the Dutch are in the West, no matter which country they go to, they will receive the highest courtesy. When did they hit a wall like the Qing Dynasty?

The Dutchman was a little unhappy, but the task was not completed, so he didn't dare to leave. He could only forcefully hold his smile and follow the Qing rules taught by Mingzhu, and bowed down to salute the elder brother.

The Pearl is bad enough, he told the Dutch that their subordinates in the Qing Dynasty had to kneel down to pay respects to their superiors. salute.Fearing that the envoy would not be able to distinguish the official position of the Qing Dynasty, he did a lot of supplementary knowledge for the other party in the past two days, and gave them a simple way to distinguish.

The easiest way to distinguish the ranks of Qing officials is to look at their clothes and top wear. The top wear and court clothes are different for each rank.

It is impossible to kneel down, and the Dutch envoy did not kneel down for the big brother in the end, but bent over instead.

Going too far, the elder brother just snorted to express his dissatisfaction in the end, and didn't hold on to it any longer.

This hurdle was finally passed. On an October day, the Dutch envoy broke out in a cold sweat. He wiped the sweat from his brow and asked, "When can we see the Emperor?"

The elder brother is obviously a teenager who can understand diplomacy, and he feels that the emperor will definitely not treat him like this.He has nothing to do with the brat, it's better to communicate with the emperor.

It's a pity that he was disappointed again, and the eldest brother turned his head with his hands behind his back, "Why, isn't this elder brother entertaining you enough? I have a lot of opportunities on Sundays in the Qing Dynasty, and whoever wants to see it can see it. Hey, I said you can't, North The Tsarist Russian mission came to Daqing and knew to learn the language of Qing Dynasty in advance, and you actually asked me to translate it from Qing officials. This is a bad attitude.”

The fourth elder brother snickered behind a few people. He only knew that his elder brother was good at martial arts, but he didn't expect that he was also good at speaking.Look how the face of the Dutchman is turning green.

Holding back a smile, Yinzhen said, "Brother, don't embarrass them. Our Qing language is not as simple as their French. It's normal if they can't learn it. Brother should be considerate of them."

The mother tongue of the Dutch is Dutch, and they can also speak French under normal circumstances. Yinzhen said this in French, and his pronunciation is quite standard, ensuring that the Dutch can understand it.

Smiling dotingly, the eldest elder brother reached out and rubbed the top of the fourth elder brother's head. As expected of him, he was his favorite younger brother, and he was so cute even when he hurt others.The small appearance of Guan Ai's mentally handicapped, the corners of his mouth are slightly raised, all showing his good mood.

The corner of Adrian's mouth twitched. He was well-informed, and it was the first time that someone with such a bad attitude like Daqing.But who made their mistakes first? If it wasn't for the fact that the Belgians had gone too far and let Qing seize the opportunity and guard against them, they wouldn't have been like this.

Cursing the Belgian half to death in his heart, Adrian still smiled along with him.

The eldest elder brother took him to the Hall of Supreme Harmony, and let him hang out for a while before Kangxi received him.Having hit a wall one after another before, the Dutchman was determined to make a comeback. He pointed to a box and said, "This is the most powerful weapon in the Netherlands today, and it is dedicated to His Majesty the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty."

He admitted that the bows and crossbows of the Qing Dynasty were powerful, but compared with the thing in his hand, it was still not enough.It's just that this weapon is so precious that ordinary soldiers can't have it, and this time he is too contemptuous of the Qing Dynasty, otherwise he would not have been suppressed and at a disadvantage.

Adrian was very happy to dedicate the weapon to Kangxi. He looked at Kangxi expectantly, trying to see the surprise on his face.It's a pity that he was disappointed, not to mention Kangxi, all the Qing people present were not surprised, he seemed to have never seen the world.

Yinzhen told him 'very kindly', "Isn't this just a shotgun? We've been weeding out this thing for countless years."

Shotgun - also known as bird gun and beak gun, is their name for matchlock guns.It was about seven feet long, about an inch in bore, and had a smoothbore barrel.

The fourth elder brother is not lying, he has actually seen this kind of gun, Dai Zi is so obsessed with weapons, as long as it is a weapon he has heard of before, he will draw it all from memory.The so-called "powerful weapon" by the Dutch, he had seen similar blueprints at Dai Zi's side. Although they were not completely similar, the general appearance was not bad.

Kangxi raised his eyebrows, and said in a dispensable way: "Yinzhen must not be rude. The envoy doesn't mind if the child is innocent. I see that the envoy likes this bird gun very much. Two days, you give me two days. I will send you ten." He gestured with two fingers.

At this time, he also remembered that he had seen similar drawings at Dai Zi's side. He had seen Dai Zi's ability before, and two days must be enough.

After sending the foreign envoys away, Kangxi asked Dai Zi to be summoned into the palace and handed the things to Dai Zi. He asked, "How is it? Can Aiqing know how to make it?"

Dai Zi observed it carefully for a moment, and said affirmatively: "No problem." He has already studied this thing, what is missing is the finished product, not to mention imitation, given him more time, improvement will not be a problem.

"I don't need to modify it for the time being. I can at least imitate ten of them in two days." It's a pity to give such a good thing to outsiders, so let's save it for them in the future.

If he didn't want to give the other party a bad start, he would be reluctant to give away the imitation.

Two days later, Kangxi had someone announce the Dutch envoy into the palace. He pointed to the bird blunderbuss in the place and said, "I asked someone to find this in the old warehouse, and I gave it to you." In two days, Dai Zi made 20 Many, Kangxi took fifteen and gave them to the envoy to fulfill his promise that day.

The Dutch envoy was terrified. In the eyes of the other party, the things they worked so hard to research were only worthy of staying in the abandoned warehouse.Seeing the same bird gun in his hand, and Kangxi's indifferent look, he finally lowered his noble head.
