Emperor Long Yufei has only one child, which has always been criticized, and even Empress Luo Yuhua inexplicably got a jealous title. In fact, it's not that Long Yufei doesn't work hard, his previous secretaries have also been included in the harem by him, and he has worked hard for a long time, but there has been no movement. Therefore, Long Yufei felt that this is probably the sequelae after the crossing! However, he is already satisfied to have a son, as long as this son can become a talent, it is much more cost-effective than having more children.

However, the ministers don't think so, the chance of dying is much higher for children now than in later generations, in case His Royal Highness the Crown Prince dies before he becomes an adult, then the empire has no successor? Therefore, if Long Yufei can have more sons, it will be more secure. This is also the reason why General Zhao Yi, deputy chief of general staff and minister of logistics and equipment, persuaded Long Yufei to include this sixteenth princess in the harem as soon as he heard that the sixteenth princess of Thailand, Amomi, was the first beauty in Thailand.

"Your Majesty, why don't we find another way! King Rama III of Thailand is not young, although he has a lot of children, but there are few who are really useful, if the sixteen princesses of Thailand marry you, we can find a way to let the sixteen princesses get the inheritance of the Thai throne. In this way, with the support of our strong strength, the sixteenth princess will definitely be able to ascend to the throne of Thailand. In the future, when you have children, let your children succeed you. Such. Isn't Thailand ours? This does not require the use of force. Prime Minister Li Decheng said. Undoubtedly, this was a good way to make it easy for the Chinese Empire to seize Thailand. At the same time, it can avoid war. King Rama III of Thailand is not young now, and his health is not very good, I don't know how many years he can live, and the Chinese Empire only needs to wait patiently for a few more years to be able to obtain Thailand without blood.

"Haha, Your Majesty, it's not bad for the Prime Minister to bother with this method. Let the Thai people have no money. "The Chief of the General Staff, General Niu Meng, was the first to stand up in support. Although, he didn't get a fight, which made him a little bored. But it doesn't seem bad to see Thais being treated like fools.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's proposal, I think it can be considered." General Zhao Yi, Deputy Chief of General Staff and Logistics Equipment Department, also said.

Long Yufei pondered. With the strength of the current Chinese Empire. To take Thailand, it is completely effortless. However, blindly waging a war of aggression will indeed have a great impact on the image of the Chinese Empire. It would be nice if there were other ways to get Thailand through guò. After all, once a war breaks out, it will cost a lot of military spending. The current Chinese Empire is using money everywhere. To be able to save a little more is a little. Of course, will the Thais agree to the demands of the Chinese side? That might be the case.

"Even if I agree, will King Rama III willingly hand over the succession to the throne to the sixteenth princess? It's hard to say. Long Yufei said. The Thai royal family is not stupid, otherwise their first king, Rama I, would not have been able to take the throne from King Cheng Sin of the Thonburi dynasty. Such a person is naturally not so easy to deal with.

In fact, the current Thai royal family is simply a usurper. Rama I, formerly known as Thongluang, was a close confidant of King Cheng Shin of Thailand during the Thonburi Dynasty and was named Generalissimo. In the 47th year of Qianlong of the Qing Dynasty (1782), Zheng Xin was overthrown by a coup d'état, and Rama was on the front line in Cambodia at that time, and when Rama I returned to Thailand, he ordered Zheng Xin to be executed. In the fifty-first year of Qianlong, Rama I paid tribute to the Manchu Qing Dynasty and claimed to be Zheng Hua, the son of Zheng Xin. The Qing court believed in it and named Rama I as the king of Thailand. In fact, Rama I was only three years younger than Zheng Xin!

Zheng Xin is one of the most famous kings in Thai history, and one of the five great "emperors" in the minds of the Thai people (the five emperors are: Ramkhamhaeng the Great, Nalixuan the Great, Taksin the Great, Maku the Great, Chulalongkorn the Great, the latter two of which are later kings, and now that history has changed, it will definitely not appear again). Because of his love for the people and benevolence, he will be remembered by future generations. In addition, Zheng Xin made the Chinese feel close because he was Chinese. Therefore, the current Thai royal family was originally stolen from the Chinese.

His father, Zheng Da, was born in Huafuli, Chenghai, Guangdong, China (now Shanghua Town, Chenghai District, Shantou City), and traveled south to Thailand during the Yongzheng period of the Qing Dynasty, lived in Ayutthaya, and was a stall owner, and changed his name to Yong after becoming rich; His mother, Noyang, is Thai. Zheng Xin was born in Ayutthaya. He began his education at the age of 7 in a Theravada Buddhist monastery and after 7 years of study, he became a royal attendant.

When Zheng Chao was serving as the vice-governor of Laixing Province (who later became the governor), he received his Thai name, Ta Shin, and the official title was Phraya Tashin. It is also possible that his Thai name comes from a transliteration of the Chaoshan dialect in China. When he was promoted to governor of Kamphaeng Phet province, he had to return to Ayutthaya. Because at that time Burma attacked Thailand and besieged the Thai capital. Zheng Xin led and participated in the defense of the capital. But Ayutthaya soon fell in 1767, and Zheng Xin rushed out of the city with a small army.

Ayutthaya was destroyed, the king of Thailand died, and the country was divided into six parts, and Zheng Xin controlled the east bank of the Chao Phraya River, and he, together with Thong Luang (Rama I), near the Chao Phraya River, successfully repelled the Burmese army and defeated his opponents, achieving the unification of the country.

Taking advantage of the outbreak of the Qing-Burma War and most of the Burmese Ayutthaya garrison was forced to return to China to resist the Qing army, Zheng Xin led the people to use the southeast coastal area as a base to organize the anti-Burmese army, recover Ayutthaya, and move the capital to Thonburi. He was proclaimed king on December 28, 1769, and was known as the Thonburi Dynasty. In 1770, he eliminated the separatist forces in various places, unified the whole of Thailand, and carried out several military expansions in Cambodia. He also sent envoys to China and entered the court to claim the status of vassals (vassal states) in the Qing court. On April 7, 1782, in a palace coup, Zheng Xin was killed. King Rama I, who returned to Beijing with a large army from the Cambodian front, took power and established the Bangkok dynasty.

Most of the Chinese living in the Nanyang area know the legend of Zheng Xin and what the current Thai royal family did back then. It's just that the Chinese at that time were completely scattered, and Thailand was also one of the powerful countries in the South Seas at that time. Even if the Chinese are dissatisfied with the Thai royal family, there is no way to avenge Zheng Xin. Now, the Chinese Empire has been established, and some Chinese living in Thailand have taken the opportunity to send people to contact the Chinese Empire, hoping that the Chinese Empire can send troops to crusade against the Thai royal family and avenge Zheng Xin. Of course, this can also allow the Chinese Empire to annex Thailand, and the local Chinese will be able to live a good life. The Chinese living in Thailand now are often bullied by the Thais, and the Thai government is also partial to those locals, and the life of the Chinese is not easy. This is because the Chinese Empire is getting stronger and stronger, and the Thai government is worried that excessive oppression of the Chinese will cause the anger of the Chinese Empire, so it has reined in.

"Your Majesty, if the Thai royal family doesn't know what to do, then we don't need to talk nonsense with them. Just send troops directly to attack Thailand. We can completely hold the banner of avenging Zheng Xin, so that we will not be nameless. General Niu Meng, Chief of the General Staff, said.

"When the time comes, the government will secretly guide public opinion, and the people of the empire will definitely support us." Prime Minister Li Decheng said.

"Okay, Lord Lin, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will talk to the Thai people first, if the sixteenth princess can get the right to inherit the throne of Thailand, I will marry her. If not, forget it. In addition, we will also ask Thailand for an explanation of Zheng Xin's matter! Long Yufei said.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Foreign Minister Lin Zihao nodded. In this way, it can be regarded as setting the tone for negotiations with Thailand.

In fact, no matter which method is used, Thailand will be destroyed, but the military means will be a little more intense, and Thailand does not know how many people will die for it, and the Thai royal family will definitely be a dead end. If Thailand agrees to the request of the Chinese Empire to hand over the succession to the throne to the Sixteenth Princess, Thailand will also fall into Chinese hands after the 100th anniversary of King Rama III. This is a more modest approach. The Chinese side has already given the conditions, and it depends on how Thailand chooses.

After leaving the General Staff, Foreign Minister Lin Zihao sent people to the Thai Embassy in China to inform the Thai Duke of Pakang to hold a meeting with the Thai side on this matter.

When Duke Pacan arrived at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it was already 5 o'clock in the afternoon, because he didn't know why Lin Zihao would summon him again, Duke Pacan was a little apprehensive. He knew that the Chinese side would definitely be able to see the Thai side's intentions, but he didn't know whether the Chinese side would accept it. After all, no one knows whether the Chinese emperor would give up the annexation of Thailand for the sake of a woman. Duke Pacan knew that the chances of success were slim, but he wanted to give it a try. After all, this is the only chance to save Thailand.

"Hello, Your Excellency the Foreign Secretary!" After seeing Lin Zihao, Duke Pakang's posture was very low.

"Lord Duke, please be seated." Lin Zihao said.

"Thank you, Lord Lin." After Duke Pacan sat down, he looked at Lin Zihao, as if waiting for him to uncover the mystery. Duke Pakang knew that Lin Zihao was in such a hurry to see him, it must have come to fruition. He was a little worried, wondering if the result was what he had hoped for. After all, this is directly related to the fate of Thailand, and whether Thailand can survive depends on the meaning of the Chinese. This kind of feeling that the fate is in the hands of others is indeed very tangled. (To be continued......)
