Manenur is the king of Portugal no matter what, even if it is to declare the benevolence of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houwei will not be able to cut this guy, so he gave him a royal palace in Fangshan......

Confiscation of money! In fact, this guy didn't have any money, and he didn't let Manenur make an IOU, Zhu Houwei felt that he still had to make face......

What's more, hundreds of clans went to Western Europe, most of them migrated to the whole family, and the house was naturally vacant, as for the mortgage owed to him, it had to be repaid, don't think that you can rely on him Zhu Houwei's account if you run thousands of miles away!

Of course, this house is still nominally the king's, and the kings have migrated, and the property and land under their names have been swallowed by Zhu Houwei, and they are still nominally debts......

Although Zhu Houwei did not give him a knighthood, he still allocated him 1,000 taels of silver every month as expenses, and dozens of people were also allocated to him from the Portuguese captives as guards, so as not to be bullied too hard......

Now that Manenur has come to see him, could it be that he has been bullied?

This doesn't seem to be easy to do, Zhu Houwei asked the eunuch to bring Manenur into the imperial study, and he also wanted to see what kind of trouble this guy was going to make.

"Greetings to the Great Ming Emperor, Manenur." Although he was a captive, Manenur felt that he was still a nobleman, so he still looked so elegant, and his body was full of the so-called gentlemanly demeanor of a foreign race.

"Bow down, sit down." Zhu Houwei waited for Manenur to sit down and asked, "I came to see me today, I don't know what happened?"

Manuel smiled lightly: "The great emperor, Isabella, the daughter of Manenur, admires you and wants to be your concubine......"

Zhu Houwei was dumbfounded, he never dreamed that Manuel came to see him today to give him a woman, and it was his daughter......

Isabella? Zhu Houwei's mind couldn't help but recall the tall and alien beauty he saw in the main hall that day, if history had not changed, this Isabella would have married her cousin, that is, the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, Charles V, but unfortunately it is impossible now, but maybe the cousins may have the opportunity to meet in the future.

The Manuel in front of him is a little clearer than the last time he saw him, but his spirit seems to be quite good, I think he has not been bullied by the clan in the past few months, and his Chinese level has also improved a lot compared to the last time, at least he is not stammering.

But how could this guy suddenly remember to stuff his daughter into him? So Zhu Houwei asked the question in his heart.

Manuel replied respectfully: "Great Emperor Ming, in the past few months, the gentleman you sent to teach Manenur told me the history of the ancient Chinese country, Manuel knows that there has always been a tradition of harmony in the great ancient eastern country, so Manuel wants to marry his daughter to you as your concubine."

Zhu Houwei was stunned and immediately laughed, this half-hung level ......

"The Ming Empire never gets along!" Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "And the emperor's concubine position is limited, and there has never been a reason to give a woman of different races, although you used to be the king of Portugal and have an extremely noble bloodline in Western Europe, but it is worthless in the blood unity of the Ming Dynasty, and the blood of the former royal family has now fallen into the dust and become a common people, so your calculation is obviously wrong."

Manenur tried to understand the deep meaning contained in Zhu Houwei's words, but unfortunately he is indeed half-hung for Chinese, in his opinion, his bloodline is extremely noble, so it is more than enough to marry his daughter to Emperor Jiajing.

He also knew that the most noble woman in Daming was the queen, and he was quite self-aware, and he never thought that his daughter could become the queen, but being a concubine didn't seem to be a big problem, right, who knew that Emperor Jiajing seemed to be unwilling?

Why wouldn't he want to? Could it be that Isabella isn't pretty enough?

At this time, Manenur did not have the slightest consciousness of being a prisoner, and he didn't think that the Ming emperor would treat him well, after all, the ideology was still the same as that of Europe, wasn't it defeat? What's it? As for whether Portugal will never exist from now on, sorry, he really didn't think about it......

"I have a question I'm curious about?" Zhu Houwei said with a smile: "I heard that you Western Europeans don't have toilets, and they never like to take a bath, they like to use the street as a toilet, defecate in the open, and no one has cleaned up, so that a city is stinky, so you like to use flowers and perfume to cover up the smell, is it true?"

Manenur didn't expect Zhu Houwei to ask such a question, even if he didn't expect it, when he recorded it, he paused slightly, and his eyes showed an unbelievable look, which was really contrary to his professionalism.

However, Manenur said as a matter of course: "Your Majesty the Great Emperor, Manenur is a devout believer, and the divine decree has said that bathing will damage people's vitality, and as for the toilet...... Your Majesty, you are right, Western Europeans do not have toilets, and Western Europeans do like to relieve themselves of their hands anywhere. ”

The pen of the living note fell off......

However, as a Christian, Manenur felt that this was normal, for both commoners and nobles, for whom the sky could be a convenient place, even the magnificent royal palace.

Zhu Houwei believed it completely, he still remembered that he had seen an article in later life, which said that in the eighteenth century, the American President Benjamin Franklin went to France to ask for help, and he was almost smoked to death when he first entered Paris......

It seems that this is a Western European tradition, a perverted tradition that is not ashamed but proud......

In fact, Manenur himself was not accustomed to it, and after he was brought aboard, he continued to maintain this 'good' habit, but he and all the prisoners changed quickly.

Because the demon on the ship corrected more than a dozen civilians to come out and cut off their heads without hesitation, and then threw their bodies into the sea to feed the fish, the crime was not to urinate in the toilet, and even more excessively, the demon saw the feces and urine on the ship, and asked the civilians to lick it clean, and kill it if they didn't lick it clean......

So they were honest and decisively looked for the toilet when it was convenient, and this habit has continued to this day......

"My harem doesn't need a stinky woman, if you want to be a woman who wants to be me, you can, go back and let your daughter Isabella develop the habit of taking a bath every day, and learn Han culture, at least there must be a sixth-level level, and then I will consider it."

"Level six?" Manenur didn't understand what Zhu Houwei meant, but seeing that Zhu Houwei didn't seem to want to deal with him, he could only get up and leave.
