readx;?“ Mr. Ji Gao, Yanping, I have one more thing I would like to discuss with you. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 Emperor Zhu's face suddenly became solemn, and he was silent for a moment before he said, "I promised the crown prince that day that I would give up the throne to him after winning the battle. Although the battle is in full swing today, the victory has been decided, and my health is not good, so I need to recuperate, so it is time to practice inner meditation. What do you think? ”

'You're not in good health? Zuo Zongtang and Zheng Hong looked at Zhu Jishi, who had no wrinkles on his face and no gray hair on his head, and was as strong as a cow, and they were thinking in their hearts, "This is to pretend to be sick to the end!" It's just that this thing has deceived others, and it has also deceived its own people! ’

Zheng Hong shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, the current situation is already a sure victory, why do you bother to make any more extraneous branches?" ”

"It is precisely because of the victory that I want to meditate in advance. The credit for laying the foundation for my thousand-year-old hegemony in China should also let the crown prince share one or two, so that his throne can be secured. Zhu Jishi said lightly. I know that in the next few decades or even a hundred years, the emperor's seat will not be easy to sit on! ”

Coming from later generations, he naturally knew that since the 19th century, the royal power of all countries in the world has been gradually weakening, and in the 21st century, there are few emperors left in the world who are still in power. And a lot of royals didn't even get a good death! Emperor Zhu didn't want his children and grandchildren to end up.

But knowing that the emperor was not good, Zhu Jishi had no other choice back then - after all, in the middle of the 19th century + one + book ~ read + novel + in the minds of the Chinese, it was still very marketable to rebel as an emperor and be a hero. The kind of republic "wholeheartedly for the people" has hardly been heard of. Moreover, with the title of the overseas son of the Ming Dynasty, it was easy to attract the domestic professional rebel Hongmen to join at that time, and for Confucian scholars, the restoration of the Ming Dynasty also had a certain appeal.

Thus. Zhu Jishi became the emperor head-on. And after becoming the emperor. Naturally, you have to worry about the inheritance of the dynasty. He now practices a constitutional government of "king under the law" and an octopus dynasty of "strengthening the royal family". The purpose was to make the dynasty he founded a little longer. And letting Zhu Guoxiong share some of the great achievements of dominating the world is also for this purpose.

At least in the eyes of future nationalists, Zhu Guoxiong, the emperor, has made a great contribution to the great Chinese nation!

Zuo Zongtang frowned tightly, "Your Majesty, now that the war is not over after all, and the major events have not yet been decided, if you want to practice internal meditation, I am afraid that the morale of the army and the people will be unstable." ”

"What's there to be afraid of? I'm still alive, and I'm not really sick. Zhu Jishi smiled. I have been in the Extreme for more than 20 years, where is the Great Tomorrow not in the palm of my hand? As long as I am in one day, what is the difference between being the emperor and the emperor? ”

Zhu Jishi still has this confidence. For him, the de facto founding monarch and the "Emperor of the Ages" who established a great empire far beyond the Han and Tang Dynasties, there is indeed no difference between being an emperor and being an emperor. Moreover, although the Ming Dynasty is not particularly respectful of Confucianism now, the foundation of Confucian patriarchy for one or two thousand years is still there, and filial piety has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Among Zhu Jishi's sons and daughters, there is probably only Zhu Juan, who does not pretend to be a filial son. Of course. There is another intention in choosing Inner Meditation at this time.

"In addition, this time Neizen can also do the rumors that I will soon be in the world in the world." Zhu Jishi smiled coldly. "The tigers in the mountains are going to die, and the monkeys will jump out and fight to be the king!"

"The monkey is Napoleon IV?" Zuo Zongtang asked with a smile.

And Mathilde, the she-monkey. Zhu thought to himself, 'She will soon be Caesar of the Roman Empire...... If Napoleon IV had died young, would the Roman Empire really want her to be a woman? It's ridiculous! ’

"France's power is mainly on both sides of the Atlantic, and we can't reach it enough." Zhu Jishi pondered and replied, "If you want to trap France, you can only lead Napoleon IV to make mistakes himself." In fact, Mathilde's policy of neutrality and wait-and-see for France is the most difficult to deal with, and I am now deliberately showing weakness to the West, and there is also a reason for her. ”

Mathilde was not a man of great talent, and he was even a little timid. But her policy was the most suitable for France.

At the moment, of course, the combination of France and Italy is not very reliable, and it is likely to be embarrassing to really go to the battlefield. But with millions of troops behind a strong defensive line, backed by the world's second-largest navy, and backed by huge vassals on both sides of the Atlantic, it is indeed not so easy to deal with. And the "weakness" of France and Italy is only relative.

The navies of France and the Roman Empire were inferior to those of Britain - after the naval battle in the South China Sea, the British navy was probably inferior to that of France, at least four 13,000-ton battleships were soon to be delivered, and fifteen more 10,000- or 8-ton battleships were intact.

As for the armies of France and the Roman Empire, they were probably second only to China and Germany. China cannot reach France, while Germany shares a border with France. But to defeat France, which was cowering behind a strong defensive line, it was impossible to think without millions of casualties.

Not to mention the current Wilhelm I and Bismarck, even if the later generations of Hitler came over to lead Germany, it would be difficult to bite the ...... Moreover, Mathilde himself was half German, and he had always pursued a national policy of friendship with Germany. Allowing Germany to share the markets and raw material sources controlled by the French and Roman empires also gave the green light to Germany's eastward expansion. For such a France, the German Empire really did not have the slightest hatred, if Wilhelm I blatantly provoked a war and could not attack it for a long time, he was afraid that he would attract the resentment of the whole country, and finally a revolution buried the Hohenzollern dynasty.

For Da Ming, the situation is similar. If Mathilde really became Augusta, there was no way for Zhu Jishi to take her. It was impossible for the Ming army to drive to the Atlantic to engage the French, it was too far away, and there was not much benefit. As for the Kingdom of Donghua, it was actually established by Mathilde for his son Juan, and she herself has been in power in Donghua for a long time, and her influence is very huge. It was simply not realistic for Juan to lead the East China Army to attack the Mexican Empire.

Moreover, Zhu Jishi did not want the Mexican Empire, a country with tens of millions of Indians and Indo-European people. For the Ming or Donghua, Mexico is simply a burden, and what we have to worry about in the future is not to let the Mexicans "invade" instead of invading Mexico. In addition, the Indians and Indo-European people were so supportive of Mathilde...... Unlike the British in India, Mathilde treats Mexico as her own country, and the Mexican cabinet is headed by Juarez, the representative of the native Indians, so all the preferential treatment that can be given to the Mexicans has been given, and no one else can do better than her. So the Ming army really occupied Mexico, ten have. There is an endless guerrilla war.

Zhu Jishi continued: "Now there are rumors outside that I will not accept it, and now if I practice inner meditation. Napoleon IV and Mathilde must have decided that something was wrong with my body...... If the Ming army stopped in India again, they would definitely think that the expansion of the Ming Dynasty had been temporarily halted because of the inheritance of power. In this way, the French could confidently raise the banner of the Roman Empire and defend the white man to integrate Europe. ”

Now Napoleon IV has officially raised the banner of the Roman Empire - no longer France and the Roman Empire, but the Roman Empire, beginning to present itself as the heir to the great empire that almost unified Europe in history. According to reliable sources, in two or three months, Napoleon IV will be crowned Augustus of the Roman Empire in the city of Rome, and Mathilde will be canonized as Caesar of the Roman Empire.

"Your Majesty, aren't you worried that Napoleon IV will succeed?" Zuo Zongtang shook his head with a white beard. "The Roman Empire existed in Europe, and it may not be impossible to thrive again."

"Of course I'm worried." Zhu Jishi smiled, "That's why India is used to lead the-stirring stick of the British Empire, they are the most experienced in doing this kind of thing." ”

The British Empire is probably the most professional-stirring stick in European history, and if it weren't for the efforts of the British, Napoleon I might have restored the Roman Empire. (To be continued......)
