Chapter Eighty-Seven - Lying Gun Zhu Youlang

After saying that, Hongyi did not give up, but threw another bombshell.

"Xuan Ye has another question: In the pre-Ming Dynasty, the national strength was strong, but why did he let the country of Nafranc [1] (Portugal) rent in Macao?"

"I've heard of that. According to Li Qifeng, the governor of Guangdong, in the 32nd year of Jiajing, those who went to the mirror of the sea were willing to borrow land for the time being to dry when the boat touched the wind and waves, and the water was wet. Wang Baixing, the deputy envoy of the sea road, bribed Xu Zhi, and only accumulated dozens of tents at the time, and then the industrial and commercial profiteers began to gradually transport bricks, tiles, wood and stone for the house, if the settlement was ran. Since all Macao is in ruins, Haojing is unique. [2] "Fulin immediately said that it was not bad.

"Huang Ama is well-read and strong, and the old things of the previous dynasty are also eloquent, Xuan Ye admires it very much, and he must follow Huang Ama and do some learning!" Hongyi immediately bowed and saluted, expressing his admiration. At this time, he lost no time in patting the young emperor's ass, so as to create a little aura for his later speech.

"Xuan Ye is young, and the future is long. As long as you practice as a good student, and consult with Fan Chengmo and other masters assigned by Huang Mama to you, he can achieve something in the future. Fu Linzhi was full of soothing, and he showed great admiration for his youngest son at the moment.

"Son, remember!" Hongyi respectfully expressed his obedience. Okay, now that the whiskers are over, it's time to get down to business.

"Then what arrangement will Huang Ama make for this Macau Yi people?" Hongyi asked tentatively. After the Manchu Qing Dynasty pacified Guangdong, they did not expel the Portuguese who rented Macao, but followed the old practice of the Ming Dynasty and built a high wall to isolate Macao from the mainland. It was precisely this that allowed Western missionaries such as John Tang to have the financial resources and back-up to enter the interior, spread religion, and serve the imperial family. You must know that John Tong's biggest sponsor is the Macau Church.

"As long as they pay taxes according to the contract and don't cause trouble, I can let them live in a corner and make a living." Fulin was very generous.

"The retainers admire the extraordinary bearing of the emperor! However, what Erchen is more concerned about is that they are far away from the ocean, why do they want to come to my Daqing to dry the net and repair the ship? "Hongyi pretended to be an idiot.

"This ......" Fulin couldn't play for a while, so he was annoyed: Okay, you kid Xuanye, you actually raised first and then suppressed, just waiting for Lao Tzu and me here!

"The sons secretly thought that they were also for this maritime trade!" Hongyi said it reluctantly, and deliberately left the conversation to the audience and friends.

"That's natural, Yangyi is mercenary, just for profit, and they actually abandon their family and business, I really don't know what they think! What a barbarian! The Queen Mother, who was left aside, interjected in time to declare her existence.

"Huang Mama is right, the Western countries are all mercenary, ignorant of education. But the grandson has another hidden worry: Westerners make profits, and Orientals also make profits, and these two foreigners have long been linked together and started a business. On that day, Xuan Ye had heard that Zheng Zhilong, the king of Tong'an, had said that in his early years, he was engaged in maritime business, going back and forth between Fujian and the Japanese Kingdom. If they want to do this business, sea transportation will be the only way. ”

"Well, I also heard Zheng Zhilong say it." Fu Lin echoed, and then asked, "But what is the hidden worry that Xuan Ye said?" Even if the two of them hook up, they are just running around for those petty profits, and it will be difficult for me to offend in the end! ”

"Huang Ama, this sea business, the profit is quite rich, otherwise, the king of Tong'an defeated the fleet of red-haired ghosts off the coast of Fujian, and since then he has traveled back and forth between the Japanese Kingdom, Taiwan, and Luzon, controlling the sea routes, collecting the fees of merchant ships from various countries, and quickly becoming rich and captivating, as if he was the lord of southern Fujian and the overlord of the East China Sea. At that time, he levied silver on the merchant ships, and a large ship had to pay 3,000 taels, which finally made the red-haired ghost uneasy, and united with other shili several times to take Zheng Zhilong, but he still continued to expand the shili and defeated the foreigners several times.

So far, Zheng Zhilong's trade has a wide range of trade in the East and South Seas, and its soldiers include Han, Japanese, Korean, Austronesian, and distant blacks, with a military strength of up to 200,000 people, and a fleet of more than 3,000 large and small ships, becoming the only power in the East and South China seas, and even the Ming Dynasty has no choice but to do it.

It can be seen that the maritime trade is very profitable, otherwise how could those maritime protection fees allow the King of Tong'an to support such a huge fleet back then? Hongyi said to play, but found that Fu Lin's eyes revealed a kind of envy and vigilance, and suddenly realized something, and hurriedly added:

"However, such a rich profit must not fall into the hands of one person and one family so cheaply in my Qing Dynasty, it must be placed in the royal family!"

"Oh? How to put in Royal? "The Queen Mother is also interested.

"This is what Xuan Ye wants to say today, one is to open the sea, the second is to draw a door, and the third is to send merchant ships!" Hongyi didn't elaborate on it until now.

But the above three articles are not an overnight thing. What Xuan Ye is worried about now is on his day. ”

"Plan ahead? Xuan Ye said in detail. Fu Lin also has a plan in his heart, and he gradually accepts the three-day long-term plan that Hongyi just said, and now he wants to hear about his worries.

"Hey, Erchen is worried about Southeast Taiwan. The island of Taiwan hangs lonely overseas, but it is very close to the coast of Fujian, and now it is in the hands of red-haired ghosts. I am a dignified China, how can I allow a foreigner to sleep on the side of the couch? Therefore, it is imperative to recover Taiwan! This is also the time when Zheng Sen was recovered that day, and Huang Ama agreed with him. If we send troops to go one day, will these people from the East and the West unite together and fight against our Qing Dynasty? You must know that in the open sea of Sriwijaya in the west, there is a place where red-haired ghosts raise troops and hoard! If there is a war, the ships will arrive in a few days. Hongyi finally got to the point.

"Well, there is some truth in what Xuan Ye said. If foreigners don't practice etiquette, their hearts will be different! Fulin affirmed.

Therefore, Xuan Ye said that we should pay attention to the sea, which is to take precautions and prevent trouble! We must not let the Yi people run away from the door of our Qing Dynasty to come and go freely! Hongyi said that he was full of words, but he didn't stop, and continued to give a question that his mother was more interested in:

"There is another place, the sailor patrols the four seas, and it can also prevent Nanming from wanting to communicate with foreign countries from the sea, thinking that it is Austrian aid! Erchen heard Master Fan Chengmo say that in the third year of Shunzhi, the puppet emperor Zhu Youlang of Yongli actually sent Qu Shiyun [3] (耜, pronounced sì), a minister who had believed in Catholicism, to Macao to borrow 300 Portuguese soldiers and several heavy artillery, which caught my Eight Banners Iron Cavalry off guard for a while and suffered heavy losses! Erchen also heard that after Zhu Youlang proclaimed himself emperor, he sent the priest Bu Mige to the Catholic Curia with a letter from his wife and the eunuch Pang Tianshou, the celebrant and the eunuch of Bingbi, to the Holy See for help, in an attempt to go against me because of the foreigners! Such traitors are not enough to get rid of them! ”

"Good! Xuan Ye thought it through. I also have some admiration for this Qu Shiyun, so I allowed his grandson to move his coffin back to his ancestral land last year. Those foreigners, barbarians and uneducated, are really pathetic, and I don't blame them. Only this Zhu Youlang is the only one who goes against the will of heaven, goes against the grain, and dares to join the Yangyi, I must capture him and sacrifice to heaven and earth! Tomorrow, I will order Wu Sangui and other three kings to march as soon as possible and quell the sins of Nanming as soon as possible! "Hongyi's agitation really inspired the young emperor to be high-spirited! You must know that there are no two heavens and no two days, this Southern Ming Yongli Emperor Zhu Youlang has been shrinking in Yunnan, the momentum is not big, but it is also like a fish in the throat, if you can destroy the small court of the Southern Ming Dynasty in a short period of time, Fulin, the "Fengtian Carrying Emperor", is even a prestige!

"But there is one thing, now that my Great Shimizu Master has not been able to patrol the four seas, how can I prevent it from the sea?" The old comrade Empress Dowager Bumu Butai, as always, quickly came to a large basin of cold water when her son was fluttering, but it was exactly what Hongyi was looking forward to.

"Huang Mama, the sailor can not be here for the time being, but we should announce the world in advance, where is our own 'country'! Now the foreigners' running boat is dangling in front of our house, then we will push the courtyard wall outward, move the door outward, and let it become our own front yard near the land and sea, forcing these foreigners to stay away from the courtyard of the Qing Dynasty step by step! In this way, once the two foreigners in the east and west trespass into the sea under the territory of our Qing Dynasty, it will be an offense against the power of heaven, even if it is far away, it will be punished! Hongyi was relieved and finally said the core point of this conversation.

[1] The term "Franc machine" refers to Portugal, a term that began in the Ming dynasty and was still used in the early Qing dynasty. For example, in the fourth year of Shunzhi (1647), "Guangdu Tong Yangjia said: The people of the Buddha Langji country lived in the territory of Macao and the Cantonese merchants, and they had been in the Ming Dynasty for many years, and then because they went deep into the provincial capital, they were banned. Please continue to allow the city to pass through the city. On May 27, the fifteenth year of Shunzhi, Hu Shi'an, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, gave the emperor an inscription that said: "The country of the Buddha is not to pay tribute, and suddenly the big ship is sudden to the people of Guangzhou Aokou, the sound of the gun is like thunder, in the name of paying tribute and asking for the title, the meeting is not an exception, looking for a retreat to the south of Dongguan, building a house and tree fence, and building a fire gun to consolidate itself." ”

Francois is the name given to Europeans and Western Christians by Arabs and Muslims in the late 11th and early 12th centuries. At the end of the 11th century, the Christians of Europe, at the call of the Pope, marched eastward to regain the Holy Land of Jerusalem and to conquer Islam in the name of God. Most of the members of the Crusade were Francs. The Franks later lived in present-day Britain, Germany, France, and Spain. The Arabs of the Mediterranean call it "Frangi". The Franc machine is the earliest name for Portugal in official Chinese archives and historical records. At the beginning of the 16th century, the Portuguese came to the East with their maritime superiority, and the invasion and plunder of colonialism left a very bad impression on the Chinese people. "Everywhere I went, the nitrate ore bladed iron, the children's jade silk, the blatant market transportation, the coastal villages, were killed and plundered by it, and I didn't dare to do anything." At that time, China did not know who the colonizer was, and later called him Franc Ji. It is said that the Arabs who trade in Southeast Asian countries call the Portuguese "Frangi", which translates to Franc machine in Chinese. The Chinese call the Portuguese Franc Machine, probably from the mouth of the Muslims in Southeast Asia.

[3] Qu Shiyun (1590~1650) character Qitian, called Jiaxuan, Yunye, also known as Bo Luo, Han nationality, Jiangsu Chang acquaintance, poet in the late Ming Dynasty, political figure in the Southern Ming Dynasty. Grandfather Qu Jingchun, the official to the Ministry of Rites Zuo Shilang, father Qu Ru said, once served as an official of the Department of Good Food, Hunan Xuezheng. Qu Shiyun worshiped Qian Qianyi as a teacher, and in the forty-fourth year of Wanli (1616), he was appointed as the magistrate of Yongfeng County, Ji'an, and had a virtuous government. Chongzhen was an official to the household department [1], and Chongzhen was dismissed in the fifth year (1632). In the tenth year of Chongzhen (1637), he was arrested and imprisoned. Qu Shiyun has many wives and concubines, superstitious divination, and public opinion, and is said to be a Christian. In his later years, he participated in the anti-Qing activities, supported Guiwang Zhu Youlang, and King Gui was a scholar of the cabinet and the right attendant of the Ministry of Officials; Garrisoned Guilin and repelled Qing attacks three times. In the fourth year of Shunzhi (1650), Chengpo was arrested and imprisoned in the temporary prison of Fengdongshan in Guilin, and wrote "Hao Qi Yin". 42 days later, on the 17th day of the 11th month of the fourth year of Yongli (January 8, 1651), he and Zhang Tongchang were righteous at the foot of the Xianhe Ridge in Fengdong Mountain, Guilin. Three hundred years of grace for a long time, the head is still full of fragrance. ”

After Qu Shiyun was martyred, Emperor Yongli posthumously presented the Duke of Yue, Zhen Wenzhong. In the forty-first year of Qianlong (1776), he pursued Zhongxuan. There is a legend in "History of the Ming Dynasty". In the eleventh year of Shunzhi in the Qing Dynasty (1654), his grandson Qu Changwen returned to Changshu and was buried in Changshu Baoyan Zuji. In the eighteenth year of Kangxi (1679), he was buried in Yushan Fushui Rock Niuwotan. Its tomb still exists and is now a cultural relics protection unit in Jiangsu Province.
