From the negotiations between Zhou Lang and Zheng Huaide, in fact, Zhou Lang's true intentions have been exposed, his plan is the Red River Delta, as Vietnam and the Mekong Delta are the two major grain producing areas, Vietnam in the future can feed a population of 90 million at the same time, but also become the world's largest rice exporter, the development potential of the Red River Delta is obviously still very large.

Because at this time, the entire population of Vietnam was less than 4 million, but there were frequent famines, and the ability to develop was really outrageous, and the handover of these lands to the Vietnamese was simply a tyrannical thing.

However, if Ruan insisted, Zhou Lang did not necessarily have to forcibly cut off the Red River Delta, and the bottom line was actually the area north of the Red River.

There are two reasons why the Red River is north.

One is that Zhou Lang knows that the north side of the Red River is Vietnam's iron ore reserves, and he paid attention to it when he was doing ore trade, Vietnam's iron ore reserves are quite large, and the grade is higher than that of China. In addition, Hongji Coal Mine is also located in the area north of the Red River, Hongji Coal Mine is a world-class coal mine, and the coal quality is also quite good, creating Hongji Coal as a coal type. The era of industrialization is coming, and coal and iron are obviously very important. On the contrary, it is not necessary to have a grain production area.

Another reason is the Red River itself, which is the boundary river that originates in Yunnan, China, and is called the Yuanjiang River in Yunnan. Although the navigation conditions are not superior, it is possible to sail directly from China to the sea, at least much more advantageous than the Grand Canal. With such a navigable waterway, Yunnan has a reliable outlet to the sea in this inland plateau province. It was from the Red River that the French infiltrated Yunnan.

These two factors make Zhou Lang acceptable to hand over all the south of the Red River to Ruan Fuying, but he must insist that the Red River is in his own hands, at least the Red River should be used as the boundary river, so that he can freely develop and use this river. On the contrary, he could make concessions on the cultivated land in the three concentrations of the Red River, and he believed that Nguyen Phuc Anh must have valued the cultivated land more than the mineral deposits and waterways.

Nguyen Phuc Anh's request was soon passed on to Lin Di in Thang Long, who sent it to Zhou Lang urgently from Guangzhou through the post station, and the other party actually agreed, but they asked to canonize Nguyen Phuc Anh as the king of Annam.

Historically, this Nguyen Phuc Anh asked to canonize him as the king of South Vietnam, and the clever Qing government believed that the historical territory of South Vietnam covered China's Guangdong and Guangxi, and was worried that this was Nguyen Phuc Anh's scheme, so he refused this request, changed the order, and changed his title to the king of Vietnam, and the name of Vietnam also came from this, and Vietnam was called Annam before.

In fact, Zhou Lang felt that an empire was worried about the map of the vassal country to open the territory, which in itself was a digestion, in other words, Zhou Lang, as long as Ruan Fuying dared to ask for it, he would dare to give it to see who the map was opening the territory. The history of the Nanyue Kingdom did cover the Liangguang region of China, but the Nanyue Kingdom was established by Zhao Tuo, a border general of the Qin Dynasty. Let the Vietnamese let Zhao Tuo be the ancestor, that means that Vietnam is a continuation of the dynasty established by the Chinese, and the reasons for annexing Vietnam are not strong enough?

It's just that the Manchu Qing Dynasty has reached this level, and he has no interest in other people's things at all, only worried that others will take away his own things, and his mentality has turned to a defensive position, and he has a persecution delusional mentality.

You must know that even from the perspective of traditional Chinese culture, the Nanyue Kingdom is also one of the feudal forces in China, and it will be recorded in the history books in the name of the vassal state, and in the end, the Nanyue Kingdom was indeed incorporated into the Han Dynasty.

But the problem is, the king of Annam was given to Ruan Phuc Anh, so what is Li Weikang, the previous Li Dynasty had Annan on his head, and after Ruan Van Hue defeated Fu Kang An, Qianlong gave the name of King of Annam to Ruan Van Hue, and now it has fallen on Ruan Quang Hue's head, and these complicated issues have to be straightened out.

After careful consideration, Zhou Lang decided that Ruan Quang Xuan had surrendered, and now he was left to Zhou Lang to manipulate, renamed him Shun Yi Hou, took off the hat of King Annam on his head, and gave it to Ruan Fu Ying.

As for Li Weikang, simply make him the king of Nanyue, in the past, Nanyue could be surrendered to the Han Dynasty, and it also laid a foreshadowing for the future fate of the Li Dynasty.

After all the decisions were made, he immediately sent the Qin messenger to canonize the princes of Annam, Zhou Lang didn't want to spend it there, his army had rested long enough, and it was time for a unified battle!

Jiaqing, who was in Taiyuan Mansion, also knew that this day would definitely come, and he was not afraid at all at this time, he was just dying.

He has resumed a relationship with his teacher, Zhu Jue.

When the city was broken that day, Jiaqing tied up Zhu Jue, because Zhu Jue refused to leave. And Zhu Jue didn't want him to go, if he changed someone, he would definitely think that this person was a traitor, bought by thieves, and wanted him to die. But he absolutely trusted Zhu Jue and knew that Zhu Jue wanted him to die all the time.

Zhu Jue said that since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, there has been no faint monarch, which is a rare thing in all dynasties, and Jiaqing has not done the work of the king of the dead country, but he has borne the disaster of the dead country, which is really the mandate of heaven. But if it runs, the entire Qing Dynasty will be stained.

Jiaqing sighed, is there really no faint monarch, how will the descendants of the history of the cultivation evaluate his father. If he really follows what Zhu Jue said, he will indeed get a higher evaluation, such as Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, who said that he is not the king of the dead country, and his ministers are really the ministers of the dead country.

However, Qianlong's evaluation is probably over, and he will be the most bastard emperor in the entire Qing Dynasty, far inferior to Zhu Jue's evaluation of "half a life of wisdom and half a life of mistake". Zhu Jue said very objectively, saying that Emperor Qianlong was comparable to Emperor Tang Ming in the Tang Dynasty (Xuanzong, avoiding Kangxi Xuanye, the Qing Dynasty can only be called Emperor Tang Ming). But the historian's evaluation is far harsher than this, and emperors like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty are all compared to Qin Shi Huang, saying that he has "the loss of Qin and the disaster of Qin avoidance" (the ancient Qin Shi Huang was not highly evaluated, and it was believed that his politics laid the root of Qin's destruction). The Tang Dynasty did not die in the end, if the Qing Dynasty fell, then Qianlong would have lost both the country and the country. This is the Ming Dynasty Apocalypse and Wanli Emperor who were ridiculed by the Qing Dynasty and even Qianlong himself.

However, the reason why Jiaqing fled was not for the sake of his father's reputation, the father and son basically had no feelings, and when Qianlong died, Jiaqing felt more liberation than sadness. The reason why Jiaqing fled was because the emperors of the Aixin Jueluo family did not approve of Chongzhen's practice of dying in society, thinking that if Chongzhen could make plans early, regardless of the attitude and comments of Wenchen, and strongly advocated moving south, the Ming Dynasty would be able to keep at least half of the country. As for letting the prince go south, this is even more undesirable, the Northern Song Dynasty died in the country, which was the fault of the two sects of Huiqin and Zen.

When I think of the story of the Northern Song Dynasty, Jiaqing sometimes thinks again, if Qianlong did not give in at the beginning, but waited for him to die and let himself succeed to the throne openly, would these changes not happen.

It was useless to think too much, so at the last moment, he resolutely patrolled and left Beijing. Zhu Jue was forcibly taken to Taiyuan Mansion by him, but he was always depressed, and the master and apprentice had a key conversation, and Jiaqing cried, crying that if he died, would it be good to hand over the world to the thieves.

Zhu Jue saw that the emperor was crying, knelt down to apologize, and lamented repeatedly, and finally originated, maybe the days are approaching, but he also has to fight.

With the assistance of Zhu Jue's group of ministers, Jiaqing's situation in Shanxi soon improved. He didn't bring many ministers from Beijing, and he hardly brought a single dignitary, and when he left, his personal soldiers only brought a few ministers who were in charge of the military aircraft department, all of whom were Zhongzheng ministers whom Jiaqing trusted very much and recommended by Zhu Qi.

There are Zhu Jue, Liu Yong, and Wang Jie, a native of Shaanxi who was born in the top prize.

Needless to say, the ability of these three people, Zhu Jue, as the emperor, assisted him in eliminating Heshen, rectifying the rule of officials, and respecting the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty; Liu Yong, nicknamed Liu Luoguo, an official family, his grandfather began to be an official, his father is the famous Liu Tongxun, Liu Yong himself is also extremely famous, in the era of Heshen's authority, he can also be light, in addition to his excellent family background, it is also related to his outstanding personal ability; Although Wang Jie is not as brilliant as these two people, he has been loyal and upright for more than 40 years, old and prudent, does not form parties for personal gain, and does not tend to be inflammatory. I have been working as a Beijing official until I am a university scholar.

The key is the identity of this person, he is a native of Shaanxi, quite famous among the gentry of Shaanxi, although his political achievements are not significant, but he can be academically successful, promoting Zhang Zai's Guan Xue in the Song Dynasty, as if there is a momentum of reviving this Shaanxi school in the Qing Dynasty. It is the northwest area of Wenkui.

The important thing is that these three people all played a big role in the process of fighting Heshen. Wang Jie's political achievements were slightly lacking, but he was also quite insightful, and he mainly advocated the implementation of the policy of softness, giving preferential treatment to the obedient bandits, and attributing the root cause of the bandits to the darkness of local history and the oppression of the people by the officials. He advocated the use of conscription to reorganize the village warriors and rebels into a formal army.

With these three people here, Jiaqing's prestige in the court is there. Although it has arrived at the local level, the administrative efficiency has been greatly improved. In the past, Jiaqing ruled the local government through a complete set of Beijing officials such as the Sixth Department and the Military Aircraft Department, but now it is almost directly managing the local governors, but I didn't expect it to be more convenient. Could it be that the ministers in the court at that time were useless decorations?

Jiaqing sits in Taiyuan Mansion, and Zhu Jue personally supports him to block the way of thieves to the west in Shanxi; Send Wang Jie to Shaanxi and Gansu to supervise the army, let him recruit Shaanxi and Gansu Township Yong as an army, if the situation is bad, Jiaqing can also retreat into Guanzhong, take Qin as the foundation, and wait for the times to change; Send Liu Yong to Sichuan to sit in Sichuan to stabilize the country of abundance as the rear.

There are three provinces of Sichuan, Shaanxi and Jin, and the Northeast Mongolia is connected to the outside, and it may be able to turn the tide.

But how do you look at this, it is also a defeat of the Northern Yuan, so Jiaqing is also ready to flee north to Mongolia, if nothing can be done, the Great Qing Dynasty can also inherit it in Mobei.

After escaping from Beijing, Jiaqing suddenly found that sometimes things are like this, the dead knot in front of him is not so terrible, and taking a step back is really a wide open sky, and there is a way out everywhere.

Jiaqing, who had a way to retreat, waited for the attack of the thief army, and the Shanxi army was stationed in Zhengding to garrison and defend the Jingcheng Pass.
