Forty-six years from the beginning of the Republic of China.

The crown prince Zhao Kuanghuan is 51 years old, and since the age of 40, he has officially handled the government affairs.

All the pieces sent by the cabinet were sent to the crown prince, and the emperor only checked and reviewed them every day.

This situation made the prince even more stressed.

Because if the prince wants to do things, he must have his own team. The team he promoted often had conflicts with the important ministers of the cabinet, and the important ministers of the cabinet were the emperor's people.

In the end, it becomes a conflict between the emperor and the crown prince!

Under normal circumstances, the emperor is dominated by the crown prince. But at every critical moment, the emperor suddenly exerted his strength, and the prince's team was demoted by more than a dozen people one after another, and one was even exiled to Beihai (the one who was exiled deserved it, and was involved in the eucalyptus of official coercion and civil rebellion. In the prosperous era of Datong, the people of Gansu actually rebelled).

Fortunately, he is almost out of the blue, and the emperor's health is getting worse and worse, and his spirit is getting worse day by day.

"Your Highness, the birthday ceremony has been arranged."

"One more rehearsal, I'll see it myself."

It is the emperor's 70th birthday soon, and Emperor Zhao, who has never liked to do it, suddenly proposed to celebrate his birthday grandly.

When the news came out, not only the ministers enthusiastic, but even the people rejoiced.

Merchants inside and outside Nanjing spontaneously bought red satin, decorated their shops with joy, and hung red lanterns to celebrate all night.

In the early morning of this day, Nanjing was already lively.

All civil and military officials wore ceremonial dresses, and envoys from various countries also entered the city early and lined up outside the Donghua Gate to wait.

Zhao Han took the imperial chariot, and after coming to the Wumen City Tower, he stood up tremblingly and was supported by the female official to ascend the city.

Three years ago, he was still in good health and thought he would live to be eighty or ninety years old.

I don't know what day it started, the frequency of stool increased, and I had to pull three or four times a day. When defecation, it seems to be diarrhea but not diarrhea, in addition, there are no uncomfortable symptoms, and the energy is also very energetic, and there is no problem with convenient appetite.

Just last year, Zhao Han suddenly felt severe pain in his abdomen, and blood in his stool.

Famous doctors from all walks of life took turns to enter the palace for consultation, and the diagnosis results were similar, all saying that the emperor had heat poison in his body, and he must clear the heat and dispel evil spirits in order to recover.

After taking the medication for several days, there was a slight improvement.

Last winter, his condition took a turn for the worse. At first, he had difficulty defecation, bloating, abdominal pain, and then liver pain, and sometimes he could not wake up when he fell asleep, so he had to wait for him to wake up naturally.

This year is even worse, losing at least 30 pounds.

Zhao Han could probably guess that he should have bowel cancer, and it was estimated that it was at an advanced stage.

If it can't be cured, it won't be cured in another three hundred years.

The concubines followed by him and also landed in the city one after another.

Queen Fei Rulan has been dead for four years, and Tian Xiuying and Liu Rushi have also passed away. Now Fei Rumei is the queen, and she is not doing very well, and she has to lose her temper from time to time.

There was a warm sun today, and Zhao Han was helped to sit on a chair.

Although his spirit was not bad, his physical strength was not enough to support sitting for a long time, so Zhao Han could only lean on the backrest and look at the city.

"The clan is inside!"

The members of the clan lined up to come to the noon gate, and the leader was Zhao Kuangyu, the king of Chu. Zhao Zhenlan and Zhao Zhenfang, the two eldest princesses, were also there, but their husbands had passed away, and this time they brought their children to the capital to celebrate their birthdays.

After Zheng Sen stepped down as the political envoy of Guangdong, he served as the Zongzheng of the Zongren Mansion for two years. I couldn't stay idle, so I took the initiative to apply for an assignment and was arranged to be the governor of Bangladesh.

Bangladesh has fallen, not invaded, but by itself.

The Bengal emperor was reckless, his territory expanded to the limit, and during the monarch's critical illness, the whole country rebelled and split into seven separatist forces. Chinese merchants took advantage of the situation and obtained commercial privileges in several ports by selling cold weapons.

When the battle really started, the merchants couldn't bear it, so they had to ask the imperial court to send troops, and those ports also became colonies of the imperial court.

Together with the Chittagong obtained by dowry, the Viceroyalty of Bengal was formed.

"Son-in-law Zhao Kuangfang, congratulations to my father on Christmas, and wish my father a long life!"

Zhao Han smiled and raised his hand slightly.

Zhao Kuangyu immediately retreated to the side, and Zhao Kuangbai, the king of Han, stepped forward to congratulate him on his birthday.

Among them, Zhao Kuangyu, the king of Jin, did not come in person and sent a Han official as a birthday messenger.

Zhao Kuangwei's health is not very good, and he is occasionally sick in bed. However, his Jin kingdom had already expanded several times its territory, owning the territories of Tanjor, Madurai, Kulan, Kladi, and Mysore, occupying half of South India.

Han Chinese immigrants and their descendants, numbering about 500,000 people, ruled over more than 10 million Indians.

In order to facilitate the rule, compromises had to be made and reservations were made to accept South Indian customs, culture and politics. It has become a freak, a fusion of Chinese culture and Dravidian culture, but the official language and script, Chinese and Chinese characters must be used.

The land system adopts the advanced landlord ownership system.

Almost all Han Chinese were big landowners, and the Indian elite who could speak Chinese and write Chinese characters also became big landowners.

The Hindu culture was attacked, and at the same time it actively pandered to the rule, and the caste ranks became: Chinese, Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, Shudras, and Untouchables.

The Chinese are Han Chinese, above all castes, and at the same time unbound by caste occupations. You can do whatever you want, and this has provoked several rebellions, which are completely subdued by the suppression of the army.

Moreover, no matter which caste, as long as you are admitted to the imperial examination and become an official, you can immediately become a Chinese, and their descendants will also be Chinese.

However, there is a restriction that those naturalized Chinese who do not intermarry with Han Chinese within three generations will automatically cancel their Chinese status.

The Indians have proved to be very submissive, and they are willing to cooperate with no matter how outrageous the policy.

The Mughals brought with them Persian culture, which was quickly adopted by North India. The British brought European culture with them, and deliberately divided India, making the North Indian language two official scripts, resulting in the inability of India to unify the script for hundreds of years.

Now that Chinese culture has descended, South Indian elites have taken the initiative to learn, and many have even gone to China to study.

After the clan congratulated him on his birthday, hundreds of civil and military officials stepped forward.

Then came the envoys of various countries, Korea, Japan, Siam, Laos, Dai, Bangladesh, Wenlai, Sulu, Spain, Portugal, France, England, Tsarist Russia, Mughals, Persia......

Foreign envoys no longer live in Zhongshan Temple, and a special embassy has been built.

There are so many that even European countries have envoys stationed in Nanjing, so that they can easily obtain information about China at any time.

Joseon is now very obedient, and the king's name is Yi Yong, which is different from the historical name.

The main thing is that it was beaten once by China, which led to the replacement of the queen of Joseon, and of course the prince who was born also changed.

This unlucky child was born with fierce party strife, and now the pro-government party strife is still there. He hated the party struggle, and after he became pro-government, he immediately changed the blood of the court, three times in ten years, and each time it was accompanied by attacks and killings. Far from subsidence, the partisan strife has intensified as a result of the bitter feud between the parties.

Japan was still ruled by the Tokugawa shogunate, and since the country was no longer closed to the outside world, the power of the local daimyo increased greatly through maritime trade.

This increase in power did not weaken the power of the shogunate too much. The only result is that when the local daimyo is arrogant and lascivious, he no longer owes a huge amount of money to the merchants of Sandu. Their revenues from maritime trade, combined with the taxes on their territories, were enough to support their profligacy, and they were only heavily indebted to build large quantities.

There are also one or two strong clans who have worked hard to make the country prosperous, and they actually quietly learned the steam engine by sending envoys to study abroad.

However, it is very embarrassing, Japan is a coal-poor country!

Only in the northern part of the island of Kyushu, the northern Kanto Plain, and the western part of Hokkaido, there are a small number of coal mines, and Hokkaido has long been the Ezo Prefecture of China.

At present, there are only two steam factories in the whole of Japan.

The Viceroyalty of Luzon to the south was changed to Luzon eight years ago.

The mountainous region of central Luzon is still the territory of indigenous tribes. However, in the coastal areas of the whole island, the sinicization has basically been completed, and there is even a Chinese-Turkish mixed-race Jinshi from Luzon.

The island of Java is not yet a province, but it is already on the agenda.

Spain had completely declined, and the hawkish officials of the Nanking court were clamoring all day long to capture the South Philippine Islands.

To be honest, it can definitely be knocked down, and it is a breeze.

Because all the Spanish colonies were rebelling for independence. Especially in Latin America, where uprisings are rampant, native whites and mixed European and American descents have long been unbearable for Spain, and some people are even clamoring to join China.

Under the rule of Louis XIV, France dominated the continent and won many foreign wars, but the people at home were struggling.

King Charles II of England died of illness two years ago.

Because he remarried the French clan as queen, history changed, and his eldest son did not die young, and his eldest son succeeded to the throne as Charles III.

However, this Charles III, influenced by his father's ideas of religious freedom and his mother's Catholic beliefs, actually pursued a policy of religious freedom as soon as he came to power. In an overture to the Protestants, he reinstated the parliament that his father had closed for several years.

After the re-establishment of Parliament, the first decree drafted was that "all those who do not believe in the Anglican of England shall be dealt with in accordance with the law".

Charles III was furious and dissolved the British Parliament again.

The MPs then colluded with the nobility to rebel, the Earl of Argyll rebelled against Scotland, and the Duke of Monmouth (the illegitimate son of Charles II) led a rebel army to land in the southwest of England.

The Wehrmacht, built by Charles II himself, showed great combat effectiveness and easily defeated the two rebel forces.

Then, Charles III began to mess up, he felt that there were rebels everywhere, and ordered that the conspiracy rebels be severely punished. Not only did he kill his younger brother (half-brother) who led the rebellion, but he also went around London to arrest suspects. Then he deliberately intervened with the Anglican Church and used a large number of Catholics as officers.

Now that the civil war has broken out again, even the army left behind by Charles II has begun to oppose the king's perverse behavior.

In particular, the pirates from Chittagong and their descendants, all of whom were baptized into Protestantism and were very religious in their quest for recognition. Not only did the king insult their faith, but he also used a large number of heretical officers, and these Chittagong pirates were already inclined to defect.

When Zhao Han celebrated his 70th birthday, Charles II's second son, was elected leader of the rebels and declared himself King Edward IV of England.

Edward IV won, but the centralization of power in England was over.

Because he used the power of the squires to defeat his brother, the squire group regained power through the House of Commons. The British, named this event the "Glorious Revolution".
