The Son of Heaven is stopped, surrounded by lakes, and it is peaceful.

Princess Nissa followed Zhu Ciwei and Grand Duke Luo to board a painting boat and slowly walked through the lake. Emperor Zhu didn't know how much money he had spent over the years around this picturesque lake located in the east of Wuchang City, and now you can see pavilions and pavilions everywhere here, and from time to time you can see a few exotic buildings dressed in white, standing on the bow of the boat, looking around, enjoying the pleasing scenery here, and suddenly seemed to see something, showing a surprised smile. Building. Princess Nissa

"Princess, that is the Red Fort built by His Majesty specially invited a Persian master from Tianzhu, which is completely in the style of the Tianzhu Timurid Empire."

Zhu Ciwei pointed to a red building built on the Moshan Peninsula in the southeast of East Lake, along the northern slope of Moshan Mountain, with pointed arches, large domed vaults, small domed pavilions and other components. The exterior is red and white, with a predominantly dark red, castle-like building made of red bricks and white granite.

"Was this a gift from His Majesty?" Princess Nissa asked excitedly.

Looking at this woman who seemed to be in love, Zhu Ciwei sighed: "This is the Red Fort built by His Majesty to celebrate you becoming his concubine, and there is another one on the slope of the old mountain in Yingtianfu. ”

"Really?" Nissa smiled brightly, "Will Your Majesty receive me in this Red Keep?" ”

Zhu Ciwei nodded: "Her Royal Highness the princess will meet Her Majesty in the audience hall of the Red Fort, and bow down, and then give a feast." After the banquet, you will rest for the night at the Red Fort. Tomorrow afternoon, the first and second assessments will be held...... Philosophy and Mathematics are examined. In the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, I will take the third and fourth examinations to test Chinese language and military science. The day after tomorrow in the afternoon, martial arts are tested, that is, horseback riding, archery, and swordsmanship. Then you will choose one of the three arts of music, painting and dance and dedicate it to Your Majesty. ”

The content of the exam arranged for Princess Nissa is, of course, slightly different from others. Other candidates do not need to take a separate assessment of Chinese (including writing, reading, and speaking), but will incorporate the Chinese language assessment into the Confucianism (philosophy) assessment.

After all, Princess Nissa is a princess of Tianzhu, and her Chinese proficiency may not be very high, so Zhu Cihong allows her to take the philosophy test (if she wants to use Chinese), mathematics and military science in Arabic, and arrange another Chinese test.

Also, Princess Nissa didn't study French, so she didn't take this one. And the girls he took the exam had to take the French exam.

According to Zhu Cixi's report, Princess Nisha's martial arts are very good, and she is good at horseback riding, archery and scimitar, so the requirements for her martial arts test are also relatively high. Horseback riding, archery, and scimitars all have to be tested!

Chu also said that Princess Nissa was also proficient in music, painting and dancing...... In short, this is a talented, and very emotional woman, and she is beautiful.

So Zhu Cihong added an optional subject to Princess Nisha! The assessment of Princess Nissa turned into six exams in three days...... The maximum score for each exam is 100 points, and the total score for 6 sessions is 600 points.

In addition, there are 60 points for the interview, and today's audience and banquet are actually an interview.

If Princess Nissa performs perfectly in these actually 7 exams, then Zhu Cihong will make her her her own concubine.

After listening to the content of the exam, Princess Nissa already showed a confident smile, "It doesn't sound very difficult, and I have also read the Confucianism and mathematics textbooks of Taixue along the way, I believe that I will definitely be able to get a satisfactory score in the exam." ”

Zhu Ciwei nodded, and said in his heart: How can it not be difficult? It was a paper produced by the emperor's brother himself, and it was not according to the standards of the entrance examination, but according to the standards of the graduation examination. If you can do well in the exam, you can probably become a female gentleman of the female university......

......

"Concubine Nissa, I respectfully invite the Great Emperor Wanfu Jin'an."

In the Indian-style audience hall of the Red Fort, female scholars from India are bowing to Emperor Zhu.

"Bow down, give me a seat." Zhu Cihong, who was sitting on a soft, Ottoman imported sofa chair, looked at the woman in white in front of him who was slender, white-skinned, gorgeous, and looked quite smart (with a relatively large forehead), and the smile on his face could not be hidden.

Of course, Zhu Cihong is not lustful, he is recognized as a wise man, how can he be lustful? He was overjoyed when he saw Princess Nissa because he valued the friendship between Daming and the Timurid Empire in India.

Now the Ming Dynasty is the richest man in the world, and the Timurid Empire of India is the second richest in the world, both of which were real tyrants in the 17th century, and they are both big countries.

If Mingyin can marry and form alliances and support each other to coexist and prosper, then the future world will definitely be dominated by the Mingyin Alliance!

Princess Nissa had already sat down opposite Emperor Zhu, with an elegant posture and a smile, as if waiting for an interview.

"Nisha," Zhu Cihong smiled, "I am very happy that you can come all the way to me, because I have seen in it the sincerity of the Tianzhu Timurid Empire that is willing to establish a strong friendship with my Ming Dynasty." In today's world, the Ming Dynasty is the first rich and powerful country, and the Timurid Empire is the second richest and most powerful country. If our two countries can further build an alliance, they will jointly dominate the world of the future. ”

Of course, Zhu would not really think that India is the second in the world, but he also did not regard India as a candidate colony that could be easily conquered, after all, it is Aurangzeb who now dominates most of India.

Also, with the rise of the Celestial Empire and the rise of France in Europe. There is a high probability that there will be a competition between the Celestial Empire and Christendom, led by France, in the world of the future.

And India, a magical land, will undoubtedly be an important weight that determines the victory or defeat of the competition between the East and the West!

It can be said that whoever owns India will own the future!

And to have India is not the same as immediately sending troops to invade with teeth and claws. Aurangzeb is still there, and he also brought a group of thugs from Central Asia back to India, and also conquered Afghanistan along the way...... India is not a weak chicken without the ability to resist.

So it's still a more pragmatic way to get married, make friends, and then find a way to conquer.

Princess Nissa smiled and replied, "Your Majesty does not have to boast about my homeland, although my motherland is the second richest country in the world, it is not the second strongest country in the world. The Tianzhu Timurid Empire was only a rich but not strong country, so my father never wanted to dominate the world...... Although he is known as the conqueror of the world in Tianzhu, he only wants to conquer Tianzhu. ”

Pretty self-aware!

Zhu Cihong smiled slightly and said, "Nisha, can you tell me how big Tianzhu is in your father's mind?" ”

Princess Nissa said, "My father's vision of Tianzhu to the west includes the entire Afghan plateau. It reaches the west in the south and ends in the east at the borders of Bengal Province and the kingdoms of Ahom and Arakan. To the north, it ends at the snowy mountains...... My father no longer had any thoughts about Samarkand, and hoped that His Majesty's vassal kingdom of Dzungar would restrain its ambitions and refrain from marching south of Samarkand and Bukhara. ”

The war in the Western Regions continues endlessly!

This year's war is at this pace, either you don't fight, or you have to fight most of the time it's endless!

Zhu Cihong smiled and nodded: "I will give an order to the Jungar Kingdom and the Heshute Kingdom to not invade the borders of the Timurid Empire." However, the Timurid Empire should also restrain the border tribes of Afghanistan from supporting the rebels in the kingdoms of Dzungar and Heshut. ”

During this time, the territory of the northwest changed again. First of all, the Beiting and Shute Ministries were ordered to move westward to Bukhara - although Bukhara's territory is not as large as Beiting, the level of wealth cannot be compared!

The second was that the Junggar Kingdom handed over the Chu River Mansion to the Tianshan Kingdom with Zhu Cijiong as the king, and at the same time moved the people of the Chu River to fill in Samarkand.

Moreover, the Ferghana Basin was temporarily separated from the rule of the Dzungar Kingdom and was ruled by Anusha Khan of the Khiva Khanate, and at the same time, in the Khiva Khanate itself, there was also a khan, a son of Anusa Khan named Ishak.

In the end, the combined forces of the Rakshasas and Kazakhs still had the upper hand in Zhongyuz, forcing the nomadic tribes of the Jungar kingdom to retreat south to the Chu and Ili valleys.

However, Aurangzeb no longer had the slightest intention of returning to Central Asia, and his goal of going to Central Asia had been achieved.

Princess Nissa smiled and said to Zhu Cihong: "Your Majesty, my father will move the Tajik tribes north of Afghanistan to India as much as possible, so as to form a vacuum. ”

"Good!" Zhu Cihong said, "In this way, there is no possibility of conflict between our two countries...... Princess, let me see your wisdom and talent now! ”
