C31 Inca
Forbidden City, Heartbreak Palace, this was the heart of the Daqing, this was Emperor Tongzhi's study, although Emperor Tongzhi was only nine years old this year, the heaven's decorations Guijiao s all had very precocious personalities, right now the throne's Little Emperor Tongzhi already has some dignity.
"Shameless, westernization is simply insane!" No wonder royal father wanted to avoid disaster at the mountain resort, it turns out these westernization is so immoral! "He's simply worse than a beast …" Tongzhi, who was nine years old, did not even know that he had slapped the throne red.
"Emperor, calm down!" The two rows of eunuchs in Heartbreak Palace, palace maid, had all knelt down, trembling under the suppression of the illustrious heavenly might.
In Tongzhi's hand was a wondrous essay, it was the latest chapter of "Journey to the West". It turned out that little Kaiser was also Xiao Letian's hardcore fan. However, this chapter today really pissed Kaiser off, because the story just so happens to be about the Inca Empire's destruction.
The Inca rose in the eleventh century, perished in the sixteenth family, and has been in existence for more than five hundred years. Xiao Letian wrote that the mysterious Inca was located on the plateau of South America Continent and was a Ethnic Group who was very skilled in construction and agriculture.
In the latest chapter, Xiao Letian's extremely written praise of the brilliant civilization of the Inca, whether it was a city built purely with giant stone, a pyramid that pierced the clouds, or even the extremely huge treasury of the Country, it all proved to the world how great this civilization was.
However, such a glorious civilization was destroyed by European during the eleventh year of the Ming Jiajing in the year 1532 of the Western Calendar. The most annoying thing was that European had actually used deceptive means to kidnap the Inca King Atahualpa.
The despicable Spain Conqueror Pizarro, with 170 Soldiers and a few explorer, had already delved into the core area of the Inca Empire. Furthermore, under the siege of 50,000 Inca Army s, he actually wanted to negotiate amicably with King.
The Inca Atahualpa, for some reason, had brought thousands of his followers with him to negotiate with these foreigners, but they had not expected that Pizarro would suddenly kill them and rush forward to kidnap King. When King fell into Enemy's hands, the fifty thousand loyal warrior did not dare to attack and was killed by Spaniard on the spot.
Then Pizarro took the Inca as a hostage and forced the Inca Empire to offer the gold as a ransom. King had been a hostage for a whole year, and in order to redeem King, Inca Empire had provided a total of six tons of gold and twelve tons of Silver.
Xiao Letian did the conversion in the book. At that time, the Daqing weighed around 35 grams, and after a simple calculation, the Inca Empire provided a total of 170 thousand gold and 350 thousand Silver.
If you think Spaniard will keep his word? Then you're wrong, after they obtained this fortune, they actually lied that King's Army wanted to save him, and used this as an excuse to burn Atahualpa King.
From that day onwards, the Inca Empire, which had been flourishing for more than five hundred years, completely declined, until it disappeared into the long river of history.
Xiao Letian had his own plans for this chapter, because he knew that if he wanted Manchu ruler to admit his identity as a famous scholar and Master of Western Studies, he had to move their hearts. Here, Xiao Letian had chosen to use a very insidious method, which was to intimidate.
Is your Daqing a Great Empire? No matter how big it is, you haven't passed on for 500 years, right? The Inca Empire has been around since the Northern Song Dynasty, and it has been around since the end of the Ming Dynasty.
However, such a powerful Empire, was actually conquered by Spaniard's super small Army, and now, your Daqing doesn't feel any danger? You must know that you were beaten up twice by the English and French.
Liu Tie used his simplest words to describe the scene of Manchu's destruction to the Wu Steelers of Manchu. He wrote about the miserable state of the last generation, Sun Steelie, who was locked in that iron cage. Here, Xiao Letian even set up a little ambush. It was a little praise to Emperor Xianfeng, to beautify his escape to Chengde's mountain resort.
Look, how vicious are the foreigners? They just want to capture King and use him as a meat buff. They even tore off votes after paying the ransom. This is not something a human should do. Our Daqing's Monarch is smart enough to see through their evil scheme with a single glance.
Xiao Letian was too confident. If this article could not move ruler and the others in the Manchu, then he might as well do nothing, take away several hundred thousand taels of silver, and hide his own little days in the USA.
When the latest chapter of the strange text spread across the Capital, the entire ruling class of the Manchu was completely stunned. The nobles and officials of the Royal families were all lamenting the tragic scene of Dynasty's collapse, while those high officials of Han Chen were infuriated by westernization's lack of loyalty. Even the supposed martial men of Beijing patted their chests and scolded them.
"F * ck, this Spaniard is so shameless. He took the ransom and even tore up a ticket. If I were to meet him, I'll kill him no matter what!" This was incredible. Xiao Letian's essay was something that even the men from Green Forest liked to read. Even if they didn't want it to become popular, they couldn't help themselves.
As for us nine years old Little Emperor Tongzhi, he slapped the Table and started swearing. No one knew who he learned from, but the eunuchs were so scared that they all clapped their hands. If the two palaces Queen heard this, none of them would be able to live.
Just as Emperor Tongzhi was circling around the Heartbreak Palace angrily, a group of people walked in front of the main entrance. The one leading them was none other than oriental palace Empress Dowager Tzu An. Isn't it a happy morning when we greet you in the morning! "
"Greetings to Huang Frontalis!" Little Kaiser casually jumped up and said, "Isn't it because of the foreigners? Didn't Frontalis see the latest 'Journey to the West' today?" "Those Spaniard are too shameless. They are truly worse than beasts …"
Ci An looked amiably at Tongzhi. Although this child was not his own son, he had been very close to him since childhood. Tongzhi was the only one in the Daqing that could easily ascend the throne, Kaiser.
This was Daqing's hope. Tongzhi's succession was successful, no one objected inside or outside the imperial court, his inheritance rights were pure and clean, making it impossible for any of the great scholars in the world to find fault with him. This was the child's greatest strength of reliance. As long as he could rouse the Daqing to its peak, it would be possible.
He lifted his hand and let Kaiser sit beside him. "Kaiser, I have read this article too, but I am not as angry as you. The first thing I did was to order the Ministry of Internal Affairs to find the foreigners and ask them privately if this is true or not …"
Tongzhi was a smart person. He knew Empress Mother was teaching him how to govern, so he quickly sat upright.
"Anger is useless. We should first investigate this matter. What if this Xiao fella is a scammer that cheats the world? Then, Emperor, don't you get angry till your hair turns white? "
"That Empress Mother asked, what was the result?" Tongzhi was still curious.
Ci An's expression did not change at all. "Ministry of Internal Affairs sent people to ask about the missionaries of the three nations of the United States of America, and in the end …" In the end, everyone's answer was the same. Although they were all hesitating and a little embarrassed, there was only one conclusion … It's true, it can't be more true! "
With a "pa" sound, Tongzhi shattered the tea cup. The broken pieces of porcelain cut the faces of the three eunuchs, and fresh blood dripped down.
"This is the nature of the Yankees, greedy and despicable. But why did this Barbarian obtain a power that my Daqing did not? "Just what kind of power is this …" While Little Kaiser was in pain, another group of people came in. It was Tongzhi's kiss, Frontalis Empress Dowager Cixi.
"What's wrong with Huang'er now? "His face is turning yellow from anger …" As soon as Ci Xi entered the door, he cupped Tongzhi's face with both hands and rubbed it in pain. She was trying to demonstrate to Ci An. The subtext was' I am the real mother, don't snatch the son from me '.
Ci An had long gotten used to Ci Xi's gaze. Mother to son was the only way out for a woman from the palace. It was normal for Ci Xi to be jealous of him since he had to get close to him.
"Sisters, take a look at this wondrous article. Emperor is really angry because of this story!" With that, he handed the article over. Ci Xi had already seen this, but her behavior was different from Ci An's. "Emperor doesn't have to worry about this. Frontalis is the only one who cares. Don't worry, foreigners can't bully Emperor." "No matter how many times you try, you can't repeat those words again. Now that long hair has calmed down and the fate of the Daqing is on the rise, there will be a day when he will surpass those foreigners …"
Tongzhi was a little impatient to have his mother rub him. He thought to himself how Frontalis would teach him how to deal with everything, but his dear Frontalis would always take care of everything, so he didn't let me settle it. Sacred Ancestor is eight years old and he can capture Ao Bai. But I'm nine years old and I can't do it myself, so it's Frontalis's fault.
"You two, Frontalis, Huang'er have an idea …" "I would like to announce that this Xiao Letian has entered the imperial court. What do you think of it?" Ci Xi frowned, "How can we do that? I've checked, this person is two evil spirits. Wu Tie is protecting him now …"
Just by looking at the way he went to Blossom House that day, forget about becoming a official, he probably doesn't even have the mood to gather his hair. If he were to walk around dressed in Chinese Clothes, it would be too noisy for him to become a official of court!
"Then can't I let this Xiao Letian enter the palace to study with me? Let him teach me western studies... " Tongzhi refused to give up.
"Even more so, if he were to teach Kaiser Xi, then wouldn't the scholars in the court go crazy! It was so easy for the court to calm down. If you were to cause such a ruckus, who knows what kind of variables would occur … "
"I can't do that, but I can't do that either. Do you want to suffocate me to death?" Tongzhi was so angry that he shook his hand and walked out. "I'm going to the Imperial Garden to relax. Don't even follow me …"
Liu Tie was so angry that tears were flowing out of his eyes. Wu Tie tried to persuade him, "It's not surprising for Sun Tie to have some ideas of his own. However, I will still support you in this matter." This Xiao Letian's background is too weird. If we don't observe him for a while longer, we can't let Emperor come into contact with him! "
"You see, that's what I meant. But Emperor just doesn't understand my painstaking efforts …" Ci Xi kept wiping away his tears in grievance. However, the corner of his eyes were full of venom.
You are the one who instigated the disharmony between mother and son. If not for the testamentary edict in your hands, I would have sent you to the late emperor a long time ago.
If Xiao Letian knew what had happened today, he would probably be dumbfounded. He would never have thought that an essay he wrote would actually have the effect of separating the affection between mother and son. However, the current him did not have the time to analyze empress dowagers's shamelessness. His plan on dealing with Wong Lao-Han Lin was about to begin.
