Chapter Twelve The Prophets

Chapter 12 "Prophet Record"

The sudden outbreak of the Sino-Dutch naval battle not only caught the Ming Dynasty off guard, but the Netherlands was also underprepared. In the early stages of the war, both sides suffered huge economic losses by blocking the other party's merchant ships and blocking the waterways. The Netherlands suffered even greater losses. Because of Japan's occupation, the Netherlands' interests in Japan will not be guaranteed in the future. Almost all the Netherlands' biggest source of interests have been controlled by the Ming Dynasty, which is an untolerable result for the Dutch East India Company.

Since the Dutch occupied the Strait of Malacca, it was the only way for Ming merchant ships to go to Europe, which gave the Dutch a certain advantage in the early stages of the naval war.

As the war gradually escalated, the Netherlands also transferred a large number of troops and warships from the country, as well as colonial troops. However, the Netherlands was just a small country after all. Although its colonies were spread all over the world, its power was too scattered and could not form a strong blow in the short term. At this time, the Ming Dynasty chose to take the initiative to attract the Dutch fleets of Luzon and the Spice Islands with the newly formed Pacific Fleet, while the South China Sea Fleet dispatched the most elite formation to raid on Malacca.

In land battles, the importance of the Malacca sea channel is self-evident. The Dutch defense is indeed very strict, but the South China Sea Fleet is not a weak person. Since the beginning of the South China Sea Fleet, it has positioned the Dutch fleet as an illusion enemy. Zhu Yinglong wanted to capture things in his hands very much. Therefore, the South China Sea Fleet's attack on Malacca was practiced many times. Therefore, although the bones were hard, under the Ming Dynasty's raid, the Dutch eventually abandoned Malacca and lost control of the Malacca Strait.

After Malacca was captured by the Ming Dynasty, the Dutch knew that things could not be done, and their attitude suddenly turned 180 degrees. After all, the East India Company mainly focused on making money and plundering, and war was only for the weak. The strength of the Ming Dynasty was something they dared not touch at all, so they proposed peace talks.

Zhu Yinglong agreed to the peace talks. On the one hand, it was because of the backlog of domestic goods, which caused a lot of losses. On the other hand, the Ming Dynasty had just occupied Japan and did not have too much energy to start another war. Since this was not a war on land, and both sides of the war were not on their own territory, it would be a protracted war. Zhu Yinglong did not want to fight this war yet. After all, this was not a good thing for the Ming Dynasty, which was just starting to develop.

Therefore, the first Sino-Dutch naval battle broke out suddenly and ended very suddenly. After the war, the Ming Dynasty also made some concessions, such as Malacca became a joint management of China and the Netherlands, and interests were divided equally, and a cooperation agreement was reached for the formation of a joint escort fleet to protect the safety of the waterway and the extermination of pirates.

Because the Dutch naval strength is still the only one in Europe, the Dutch navy was defeated by the Ming Navy, and other countries dared not have any voice. Ambitious countries have begun to secretly develop their navy desperately.

The world is not peaceful, but the east of the world miraculously entered a fast lane of peaceful development. With the forced migration of the Japanese royal family to Beijing, Japan was officially renamed the Fusang Province of the Ming Dynasty. The first Fusang governor was Xiong Rulin in the first year of Chongzhen, and Zheng Zhilong's son Zheng Sen was also appointed as the first county magistrate of Kagoshima Prefecture.

The outdated female emperor in Japan was raised by Zhu Yinglong's order. All male members of the Japanese royal family will almost die in the next twenty years. When the female emperor saw the light of day again, she was the only one left in the Japanese royal family. Later, she could not withstand such stimulation and blows and went crazy. From then on, the Japanese royal family basically reunited with Amaterasu in the underworld!

Zhu Yinglong even ordered Buddhism to promote the gods worshipped by Amaterasu and Hachiki, such as the Japanese, were all monsters, and ordered that everyone be prohibited from worshiping. If anyone who disobeyed, they would be sentenced to burn on the grounds of possession of demons!

The second command is to abolish existing Japanese characters, burn Japanese books, and not speak Japanese. The whole people promote Chinese. Zhu Yinglong's purpose is to erase this kind of unpleasant bird song from history!

This law naturally caused a strong backlash in the Fusang province. However, Fusang, which Hong Chengchou guarded, had some ways to make these people obediently learn Chinese and forget their despicable and dirty language!

Li Xiangjun and Yang Lianying gave birth to a prince for Zhu Yinglong one after another, and Gu Mei and Kou Baimen also gave birth to a princess daughter. Zhu Yinglong's huge children added four little guys, which made him so happy that he couldn't even be busy.

In the late autumn of this year, Dong Xiaowan and Bian Saisai returned from the south, bringing news of the good development of Jiangnan Travel Agency. Although tourism is only a project that rich families can play, Jiangnan is a prosperous place, so the early development of the tourism industry is quite considerable, but it is not possible to promote it to other regions.

There are not many women in this world that can make Zhu Yinglong feel moved at first sight. The first is Xiong Hu, now she is now the concubine, and the second is Magu. This is his first love in this world as an equal status, unforgettable, and the third is Hai Lanzhu. This Mongolian beauty has an indescribable and unknown taste that makes him extremely fascinated. The fourth is Dong Xiaowan. Her arrogance, her coldness, her unremitting care, and her noble heart that is not greedy for wealth and glory have all attracted him deeply. Perhaps the more you can't get the things you can't get, the more you want, the more you want, the mentality is at work. When Dong Xiaowan appeared in front of Zhu Yinglong again, he made a decision in his heart that even if it was tied, he would tie this woman to himself. She was his forbidden body!

Without any mental preparation, an imperial edict to confer her as Anpin had already come to her. The Bian sisters and Chen Yuanyuan were also enthroned, and the four of them moved into the harem at the same time.

Dong Xiaowan has no way out. If she doesn't follow, what would happen if she ended up? She herself didn't know. It was because she couldn't figure out Zhu Yinglong's thoughts that Dong Xiaowan was hesitant about her feelings for Zhu Yinglong. Moreover, if she entered the palace, she would not only lose her freedom in life, but also face more complicated things. This is one of the reasons why Dong Xiaowan was discouraged. This imperial edict had clearly told him that the emperor liked him and wanted her to be his concubine.

After thinking for a long time, Dong Xiaowan finally sighed, put away the enthroned imperial edict, put aside all the burdens, and walked into the red palace wall!

Zhu Yinglong asked himself that he was a man who cherishes flowers. Dong Xiaowan's entry into the palace can be regarded as a perfect ending to the ending of the Eight Beauties of Qinhuai. In later generations, Ma Xianglan died prematurely, and only seven people were left almost the same year. Now the seven people have passed away together, and the remaining one is overtaken by Bian Rourou. In this way, there will be no Eight Beauties of Qinhuai in the world. Mr. Banqiao may sigh in regret in the future!

After accepting Dong Xiaowan's four daughters, Zhu Yinglong issued an order to never accept concubines in the future, and announced that the princes would choose the princess' marriages first, and they would abandon their opinions. They would marry whoever they like, and marry whoever they like. Of course, the premise is that their character must be good, and the princess cannot be a young man after they get married!

At the same time, Zhu Yinglong also announced that no matter whether the prince or the princess, after the age of sixteen, they will enter universities to study in different identities, and require equality with all students and no special ones!

Subsequently, Zhu Yinglong announced many regulations that restricted the privileges of the royal family, and issued them to the whole world, calling on the subjects and people all over the world to supervise and implement them!

Of course, these regulations that restrict the privileges of the royal family themselves do not have much constraints or restrictions, because they are relatively free. Compared with ordinary subjects, it is very easy to do and is not restricted at all. However, for members of the royal family, as long as they have a normal mind, do their duties, and do what they should do, they basically cannot encounter the restrictive regulations above. Once they commit crimes, use their power for personal gain, etc., it is not simply punished according to the "Law of the Ming Dynasty". If they are not expelled from the royal family, they may even be banned!

Five years have passed in a blink of an eye, and the Ming Dynasty has achieved another leapfrog development. Almost the world can see the footprints of the Chinese. After five years of steady development, the Ming Dynasty has achieved extraordinary achievements in both economy, culture, science and technology and military. In terms of economy, there is no doubt that the world's largest economic entity is beyond doubt. It is too much more than other countries. The Ming Dynasty's territory is so large that it has already covered almost half of Asia. Except for the Mughal Empire in the south, the Ming Dynasty is the only superpower in Asia. The total economic volume accounts for more than half of the world. The country is rich and the people are strong, and the culture is

On the contrary, under the tough expansion attitude of the Ming Dynasty, Confucian culture, Taoist culture and various schools of thought have achieved great development in a relatively relaxed environment. Of course, it is a good thing to open the ruling class and inclusively absorb it. However, the ruler cannot change his family at will. He must have his own insistence. Some theories cannot be used to govern the country, and some are too ideal. Zhu Yinglong's strategy of governing the country is to hold high the banner of Confucianism and promote the Legalist concept. Confucianism has achieved good results and successfully created a relatively honest and efficient court!

After Huang Zunsu retired, he entered the national policy advisory group. Shi Kefa officially appeared on the stage of history. With his extraordinary political talent and his subtle influence of Zhu Yinglong for decades, he served as Prime Minister of the State Council for two consecutive terms. The governance of such a large country was well organized, which also saved Zhu Yinglong a lot of trouble, giving Zhu Yinglong more time to train his children and do something shocking, which affected hundreds of years of future generations.

This is to compile a book, a book that is unprecedented and modern, its name is: "The Book of the Prophets".

"The Book of Prophets" was officially released after Zhu Yinglong died after his death for thirty-nine years. Its publication shocked the world. It is known as the greatest prophecy book in human history and is also a great scientific monograph. It contains various disciplines such as history, geography, physics, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, biology, etc. It not only has advanced ideas, but also advanced ideas, covering almost what Zhu Yinglong learned in his previous life and what he saw.

As well as anything I thought about, as well as my conception for the future, etc., there were 99 volumes in total, calculated in one volume of 200,000 words, about 200,000 words. After it was published, it was collected by major libraries around the world. However, this book was only printed in ninety-nine sets. The Ming Dynasty left behind forty-nine sets, and the remaining fifty sets were sold to the public. The price of these fifty sets of "The Book of the Prophets" was finally sold for the total amount of the treasury revenue of the Ming Dynasty, 300 billion dragon yuan!

This number alone is unprecedented and has no future. Moreover, this book is not the end of the draft. It is just that this book carries Zhu Yinglong's will. It is only 100 years for printing, and only 99 sets are allowed to be printed at a time. Moreover, it is designated for printing, and there is no change in the version mode or content!

In such a book, no matter whether Zhu Yinglong's descendants are emperors or not, they don't have to worry about food and drink. Although it belongs to all mankind, its wealth belongs to Zhu Yinglong's descendants.

At the same time, Zhu Yinglong pioneered the "secret edict system to establish a crown prince" and became the first emperor in the history of the Ming Dynasty. At the age of 60, he abdicated and gave up the wise. The eldest son Zhu Cihuang succeeded to the throne and built a huge cruise ship for himself and traveled around the world with his harem. Except for God, no one dared to have the idea of ​​this cruise ship. It is said that after this cruise ship visited Russia, Princess Irina, the mother of Tsar Peter the Great, died of illness soon after. Later, a tomb robber found that Princess Irina’s tomb was empty. The tomb robber was later ordered to be executed by Peter the Great. However, he did not expect that the tomb robber also left a note and passed on it!

Historians discovered that Irina was a student of Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, and Princess Irina was pregnant before marriage. Who is the biological father of Peter the Great? Russian history is a terrible thing. Some people later discovered that Peter the Great has Chinese bloodline. When they contacted the notes of the tomb robbers, they came to an astonishing conclusion that Princess Irina did not die, but boarded the cruise ship of the "Imperial"!
