Sitting on the back of an undulating elephant overlooking the city of Ayutthaya (note: the Chinese are commonly known as Ayutthaya), Sima Bohua had a mocking smile on his face, but in the eyes of the Dai officials who accompanied him, it was the gorgeously dressed Chinese envoy who silently praised the prosperity of the city. As a result, the Dai official straightened his chest more and more, but he didn't expect to fall into Sima Bohua's eyes, but he looked extremely stiff.

Sima Bohua is now the deputy director of the Ministry of Rites of the Huaxia Dynasty from Wupin, and this time he went south from Wuchang to participate in the re-enthronement of King Zheta IV as the king of Zhenla, but only after completing the errand of Jin Ben, the news of the death of King Papila Jaja and the succession of King Pa Zhao-Su as King of Siam came over.

It stands to reason that Siam belongs to a foreign domain, and diplomatic relations with it are within the purview of the governor's yamen, but after the transformation of the Metropolitan Protectorate into Cam Ranh Province, the executive agency responsible for the foreign affairs of the Indochina Peninsula disappeared - according to the system of the Huaxia Dynasty, the Honglu envoy of a province can only manage the internal affairs of the province and the import and trade affairs, and its embassy companion in the province can only handle the foreign affairs of the corresponding country, so the embassy envoy in Cam Ranh Province can only handle the foreign affairs related to the city as the Qiongzhou embassy companion Just as the envoy of the Guangzhou Pavilion could only handle foreign affairs related to Vietnam, the envoy of the Chaozhou Pavilion could only deal with foreign affairs related to Annam, the envoy of Fuzhou could only handle diplomatic affairs related to the Ryukyus, and the envoy of Ningbo could only handle diplomatic affairs related to Korea, and could only be responsible for coordinating the diplomacy related to Chenla—as for the diplomacy of Siam and Burma, it became a matter of direct interrogation between the Governor Yamen.

But the news was transmitted back to Wuchang from Jin Ben, and Wuchang sent an envoy to Ayutthaya City, which took a lot of time, so Sima Bohua, who had been struggling in the sea for ten years, immediately decided to venture westward with the psychology of starving to death the bold, and this would appear in this invincible city (in the eyes of the Dai people).

After a short walk along the straight avenue in the city, the Siamese royal palace is reached, where there are three royal palaces, namely the "Tie Bodhi Palace" named after the founding monarch of the Ayutthaya Dynasty, the "Western Palace", a Portuguese-style palace built by the Lord of Zhongxing, the "Western Palace", and the "Red Palace" built by King Nalai 30 years ago, this time, King Phra Chao-Su received Sima Bohua at the "Iron Bodhi Palace".

In fact, since the beginning of Na Li Xuan the Great, due to the gradual close contacts with the Taixi countries, most of the Siamese kings either live in the Western Palace or live in the Red Palace with French architectural style, even the former king Pabila Jaja who overthrew King Narai and usurped his throne is the same.

However, King Pazhao-Su received Sima Bohua in the Tiebodhi Palace not to humiliate the envoys of China, but to have another deep meaning - it must be known that since King Pabiloja, Siam began to expel the merchants of the Taixi countries, and now it has trade with China, Ryukyu, Vietnam and other countries, but although the shrinkage of trade can exclude the influence of the European world on Siamese society, it has also brought about a reduction in taxes and a decline in armaments. The appearance of the Chinese envoys as an emerging power was a relief for the Siamese royal court - so King Pa Zhao-Su, who felt that the glory of his ancestors was hopeful, received Sima Bohua at the Tiebodhi Palace.

However, the purpose of the Siamese was to reach a trade agreement, but Sima Bohua, who wanted to fight for it, was counting on the pressure of the Siamese to agree to pay tribute and sign a non-aggression peace treaty with Chenla, so the two sides had different dreams from the beginning.

Although they share the same bed and different dreams, both sides have a common enemy, and that is the Taungoo Dynasty in Burma. Huaxia made a feud with the Donghu Dynasty because the Donghu King presented the Yongli Emperor to Wu Sangui and invaded a considerable part of the land of Ming Yunnan, while the Siamese people invaded several times because of the Donghu Dynasty, and even almost destroyed the country.

Since there is a certain amount in common, the two parties have a reason to continue to contact. On September 13, the fifth year of Wucheng in China, Sima Bohua officially put forward three requirements to King Pa Zhao-Su: first, Chenla and Siam should be reconciled forever, and the two countries should be bounded by the line of Dan Peiya Mountain, Sangkampong Mountain, and Nan Saco River, with Zhenla in the east and Siam in the west; Second, Siam was a vassal to China, and then Siam sent a Hajj envoy to Lien Chau, a province of Quang Nam, and Huaxia sent a national messenger to the port of Ayutthaya (Bangkok port); Third, Huaxia was willing to pay 4 million guan to buy Siam's territory and suzerainty on the Malay Peninsula south of Moshan Pass.

Calling the ministers a tribute is just a superficial article, and Huaxia is just asking for a name, and King Pa Zhao-Su doesn't care about this, as for Huaxia's request to buy the southern territory, he regards it as a joke, but after he understands the value of four million guan, Yiqiē is different. Although the so-called four million guan was mainly valued in large quantities of arms and ordnance, Rao was so, and the remaining million guan silver was also a huge wealth that the Siamese people did not expect. Such a huge wealth was just to buy the chicken ribs in the south, and of course King Pa Zhao-Su and his courtiers were tempted.

If you are tempted, you have to continue to talk, Siamese people think that strange goods can live, so naturally they have to ask for a sky-high price, but Sima Bohua himself is talking to himself without authorization, how can he continue to increase the price? The two sides have set their own bottom lines, and the negotiations have reached an impasse. Even if there was a stalemate, there was at least some hope that the sale of the Malay Peninsula could be achieved, but the Siamese blocked the issue of Chenla without even talking about it. Yes, that's right, the Ayutthaya dynasty in south-central Siam may sell its territory in the southern Malay Peninsula, but it will never give up nearly half of the eastern part of the country.

"As long as the peace agreement is reached, our dynasty can send troops to assist your country in defeating the Burmese and even seizing their territory." Sima Bohua said so temptingly. "Not only can our DPRK send troops, but even Chenla, Champang, Annam, and Vietnam can also send troops to help in the war."

Coalition of Nations? The Siamese negotiators, who were present, fell into deep thought. What does Sima Bohua mean by this, is he sincerely helping? Or is it a threat in disguise? If it is sincere, then it is not unacceptable for Siam's territory to move westward, but if it is the latter, can the Ayutthaya Dynasty survive under the attack of the east and the west?

Therefore, the Siamese side put forward its own proposals on the question of the eastern territory: first, Siam could maintain permanent peace with Chenla; Second, the territory of the two countries should be bounded by the Biandan Mountains and the South Saco River.

Sima Bohua had known the geography of the two countries before coming to Siam, so he still knew some fur about the distribution of these mountains and rivers, and it was these furs that told him that the price of the Siamese was only one-twentieth of his original request, so how could this satisfy him? Of course, if the Siamese could agree to sell the Malay Peninsula to the Chinese at a low price, he didn't care whether he could fight for the interests of Chenla, but hated the Siamese people for only having one tendon, and the negotiation with Chenla was one thing, and the negotiation with the Huaxia was another, and there was no connection in the slightest.

As a last resort, he could only hint at coming together, but the Siamese just didn't pick up the stubble, so angry that he could only argue with the other party on behalf of Zhenla, so a strange scene in the history of diplomacy appeared, a guy who did not have the authorization of his own government and did not have the authorization of the country involved in the negotiation actually spoke righteously on behalf of the negotiated country and another negotiating country at the negotiating table.

On the third day of the 11th month of the 5th year of the Chinese Wucheng Dynasty, the real Chinese congratulatory envoy Shanshan arrived at Cam Ranh Port, but he was greeted by the jaw-dropping "Treaty on the Delimitation of the Border between Zhen and Siam" and the "Treaty of Commerce between Xia and Siam".

The Treaty on the Delimitation of the Border between Zhen-Siam stipulates that the north of the Mon River and the east of the Basai River belong to Chenla; The territory north of the Tin River and west of the Mekong River, including the province of Shangliao Sayaburi and the Nakhon Ratchasima Plateau, belongs to Siam; The territory between the Tin and Mon rivers belonged to Siam, but Siam had to pay a tax for thirty years as a ransom.

The Treaty of Commerce between Xia and Siam stipulated that Siam was a vassal to China, and that Chinese messengers were allowed to be stationed in the city of Ayutthaya, and Chinese envoys stationed in the port of Ayutthaya. Siam sold the Malay Peninsula south of Moshan Pass to China for 9,670,000 guan; In the event that Siam is invaded by Burma or troops are used against Burma, Huaxia should personally send troops to reinforce or organize the countries of Central and South China to send troops to help in the war, and Siam is willing to pay the necessary remuneration for this.

Although the envoy of the governor's yamen was furious about this, he later said privately afterwards that the two treaties had captured the greatest benefit for Huaxia and had surpassed the best results he could imagine in advance, and for this reason he would personally impeach Sima Bohua, and he must let this bastard of the Ministry of Rites know the consequences of acting ultra vires??????

However, for the re-enthroned Emperor Zheta IV, the Treaty on the Delimitation of the Border between Zhen-Siam was a solid gift that allowed him to dispel the dissatisfaction of Chenla with his defection to China and the cession of territory east of the Mekong River, and to consolidate his rule. Subsequently, under the construction of the Chinese messenger in Jinbenguo, Zheta IV reformed the succession system of Zhenla, canceling the right of some small royal families to inherit the throne, so that the throne of Zhenla could only be inherited in turn among the three major royal families. Although this move made some of the small royal families of Zhenla very dissatisfied, but with the willingness of the other two royal families, the turbulent Zhenla finally began to calm down??????

On December 17, the fifth year of the reign of Wucheng of China, the Chinese court announced the establishment of the Siam Protectorate in accordance with the provisions of the "Xia-Siam Treaty of Commerce", and ruled the port of Songkhla near Ngani, so after controlling the countries of the Indochina Peninsula, China's influence began to penetrate into the Malay Peninsula, and then extended to the side of the Strait of Malacca, the heart of the Dutch.

At the same time, in accordance with the lesson of the adventurer Sima Bohua who acted beyond his authority, the Governor Yamen set up an assistant office in Guangzhou Prefecture to handle the foreign affairs of the five Central and South African countries nearby. As for Sima Bohua, he also received the punishment he deserved, and he was honored as the founding marquis of the people, so as to reflect the policy of rewarding merit and punishing the people??????
