For mobile phone users, please visit... or... At this moment, Zheng Chenggong's superiors arrived in Nanjing. Shang Yi suddenly realized that Zheng Chenggong was the most suitable candidate because he had all four conditions.
Zheng Chenggong was originally a powerful political force with strong military and administrative capabilities, as well as maritime awareness. Although he was slightly less concerned with overseas affairs and business,
A little bit close, but not completely ignorant, and he also has an old man, Zheng Zhilong, who can completely make up for Zheng Chenggong’s shortcomings.== ww.uos.Uploaded by netizens==And more importantly, Zheng Chenggong has other people under him
He has a relatively complete team, so it is natural for him to complete the mission of opening up the first overseas colony in Chinese history.
Moreover, Shang Yi also knew what Zheng Chenggong wanted, because unlike other generals who surrendered, Zheng Chenggong not only had his own team, but also received a surname from the Ming Dynasty. He once regarded himself as the surname of the country. In the new dynasty, this was of course very important.
It is not without reason that Zheng Chenggong did not dare to serve as an official in the new dynasty because of taboo matters. However, the position of governor of the China West India Company was somewhere between half official and half businessman. The most important thing was that he lived overseas, and the mountains were high and the emperor was far away.
No one can care about it. Zheng Chenggong can also feel at ease.
In addition, Shang Yi also feels somewhat guilty about Zheng Chenggong, because in another time and space, Zheng Chenggong was a famous national hero in China. He resisted the Qing army internally and conquered Taiwan externally. He made great achievements and left a name in history. But now these historical achievements have been forgotten by him.
Being deprived of it, Zheng Chenggong's deeds in resisting the Qing Dynasty were basically just soy sauce, and his achievements in recovering Taiwan were not rewarded at all. Shang Yi always felt a little sorry for him.
Therefore, if Zheng Chenggong can take over this task and create China's first overseas colony in India, he can leave his own footprints in history in another field.
Although the pioneers who founded colonies in this era often have two sides in history, for their own country, he is a hero with a spirit of pioneering and enterprising spirit, but for the colonized areas, he is a brutal invasion and plunder.
Among them, the most representative and famous one is Magellan’s stele.
The inscription on the front reads: Fernando
A round-the-world voyage is completed in this way
The inscription on the reverse side reads: Lapu-Lapu. On April 27, 1521, Lapu-Lapu and his warriors repelled the Spanish invaders here and killed their leader Fernando Magellan. From this
, Lapu-Lapu became the first Filipino to repel the European invasion.
But no matter what, Magellan's status and achievements in history cannot be erased, and they far surpass Lapu-Lapu, the man who resisted the European invasion of the Philippines. Therefore, if this method is used to make Zheng Chenggong famous in history, it can be regarded as
A kind of compensation for Zheng Chenggong.
Of course, Shang Yi is not worried that if Zheng Chenggong really establishes a foothold in India, he will start to claim the throne independently and break away from China's control. Firstly, China has enough maritime power to fight against ambitious people who want to stand on their own. Secondly,
But without the backing of the motherland, it is difficult for the colonists to survive overseas, because to the local indigenous people, the colonists are invaders. In another time and space, the United States, which is composed of immigrants, is just an exception. What's more, in India
In this land, there are also forces from other European countries.
After listening to Shang Yi's words, Zheng Chenggong also fell into deep thought. Now Zheng Chenggong is not yet thirty years old. It is the time when he wants to make a career and achieve success. Of course, he is not willing to just be a businessman. Therefore, Shang Yi's
This suggestion indeed tempted Zheng Chenggong. Most European countries had established the East India Company.
He had heard Zheng Zhilong talk about it. Now China also wants to establish a Chinese Indian company in India. This is indeed a big event. Although it is different from making contributions in the traditional sense, Zheng Chenggong's knowledge and vision are after all the same as those of the great leaders of this era.
Unlike most people, they still have a considerable spirit of pioneering adventure and ocean consciousness.
In addition, Zheng Chenggong also heard from his father about his experience of exploring Taiwan with Yan Siqi. Therefore, if he could go to India and create a new situation, he would have done a great job. And India is indeed a sky-high emperor.
far away
There is no need to worry about being tabooed by the new dynasty. However, Zheng Chenggong thought for a while and then said: "Your Majesty, please Rong Chen think twice before replying to Your Majesty."
Shang Yi also nodded and said: "Okay, go and see the exhibition when you have time. You can also learn about the situation in India, which can help you make a decision."
After Shang Yi finished speaking, Zheng Chenggong stood up and resigned. And Shang Yi also returned to his home.
Of course, the first thing to do is to go to Kunning Palace, which has also become a habit of Shang Yi.
Before entering the main hall of Kunning Palace, you can already hear people talking, laughing and singing, as if they are talking about something happy.
The officials waiting to guard the gate shouted at the top of their lungs: "The Emperor has arrived."
The concubines all stopped talking and joking, stood up to greet Shang Yi, and greeted Shang Yi. Sure enough, they saw the concubines and daughters gathered in Kunning Palace, and even two Korean Loli princesses were here.
Shang Yi said: "No need to be polite, let's all go inside." As he said that, he led the way to Kunning Palace, with Ye Yaoyao accompanying him.
While walking, Shang Yi said: "I just heard you talking very passionately. What were you talking about? Is it difficult to talk about overseas things?"
During this period, things about overseas European countries also became a hot topic in the palace. In addition, there was a Spanish Alessandra in the palace, and there was Lin Fengwu who was familiar with overseas things, and various countries
The mission also sent many gifts to the palace, especially the Spanish mission, which included official gifts.
There were also gifts from Marquis Gonzalez and his wife. Everyone had a share, including the two Korean Loli princesses, who also received their own gifts. Therefore, during this period, the concubines also received gifts every day.
Talk about Europe, compare gifts received with each other, listen to Alexandra talk about European customs and customs, etc.
But Ye Yaoyao smiled and said: "It won't happen this time, but it's a good thing."
While he was talking, he walked into Kunning Palace. Shang Yi sat down in the middle and said, "Oh! What's the good news?" Just as he was talking, Shang Yi discovered that among the concubines, only Chen Yuanyuan was the one to be treated.
The wife supported you, so she also said: "Yuanyuan, are you feeling uncomfortable? Have you seen the imperial doctor? Do you want to go back and rest? There is no need to hold on here."
Chen Yuanyuan's face showed a slight blush, and she said: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I, my concubine, will be fine."
Ye Yaoyao smiled and said: "Of course it's nothing, but I'm happy."
Shang Yi was stunned for a moment, then immediately stood up and came to Chen Yuanyuan's side, saying, "Really? When was it confirmed?"
Chen Yuanyuan lowered her head and said: "It was confirmed this morning. The two doctors from Tai Hospital have seen it."
Shang Yi took her hand and said: "That's great, but you are not young anymore. It's not easy to get pregnant. You must be careful and take care of yourself. Do you understand? From now on, I will come to Kunning Palace every day to say hello."
If you can avoid it, just let it go. If you feel uncomfortable, just rest in the palace."
Chen Yuanyuan nodded slightly and said: "I know that the imperial doctor said that everything is fine now. Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty."
If calculated according to the order of entry, Chen Yuanyuan is second only to Ye Yaoyao, Shang Yi's second wife and concubine in this time and space. When Shang Yi was just emerging, she rushed to follow Shang Yi. Moreover, after all,
She was only one year younger than Akashi-hime, so even though she regarded herself as a concubine, the wives and concubines who came into the family one after another respected her very much.
Of course, she is also one of the few famous historical figures in Shang Yi's harem, and because Shang Yi knew her bleak life in another time and space, he also had special pity for her, although now Chen Yuanyuan's life has completely changed. But because
Chen Yuanyuan did it in his early years
Her body was greatly damaged by her experience as a prostitute, so even though she had been a prostitute for a long time, she had never been able to get pregnant. Although Shang Yi often tried to enlighten her, seeing that most of the other concubines became pregnant and gave birth to children for Shang Yi, this also
It became Chen Yuanyuan’s heartache.
Although Chen Yuanyuan has been taking good care of her body in the past few years, taking various tonics as food, and using a lot of traditional remedies, there is still no movement, and she is now over thirty, so she has no hope. Unexpectedly
It happened that she got pregnant at this time, which can only be said to be a blessing in disguise. But her long-cherished wish finally came true. Chen Yuanyuan was of course very excited, and Shang Yi was also very happy for her.
In this way, except for the young Zhu Yujie, everyone in Shang Yi's harem has already experienced pregnancy. The two North Korean Loli princesses have not yet been officially adopted by Shang Yi, so they are not included.
.
However, except for Chen Yuanyuan, every pregnant concubine finally gave birth safely. According to the birth medicine of this era, it can indeed be regarded as a miracle. But behind the miracle, it is actually Shang Yi who tried his best to use modern medical experience to
Care for every pregnant woman
Nutrition, exercise, etc., and keeping the pregnant woman in a good mood, of course, there is also a little bit of luck. But because of this, Shang Yi's harem has also accumulated quite a wealth of experience in caring for and regulating the pregnant woman.
Therefore, Shang Yi can feel more at ease.
Everyone joked together for a while, and then they all said goodbye one by one and went back to the palace. Shang Yi also personally sent Chen Yuanyuan back to her Yonghe Palace, and summoned the two imperial doctors who diagnosed Chen Yuanyuan's pulse, and questioned Chen Yuanyuan in detail.
He also ordered the two imperial doctors to be responsible for the diagnosis and treatment of Chen Yuanyuan during her pregnancy, and gave detailed instructions to the maids and attendants in Yonghe Palace.
Afterwards, Shang Yi had dinner with Chen Yuanyuan in Yonghe Palace and talked to her for a while. It was not until Chen Yuanyuan fell asleep that he left Yonghe Palace and came back to Kunning Palace.q!.
