I am Peter III, Emperor of the Hexagon of the Goose Kingdom

Chapter 47 Pure Love Party Leisurely Thoughts on the Oriental Harem System

Peter walked boredly, looking at the maid's clothes for a while, thinking about waiting for the butler to come back, and changing the women's clothes when there was a fashion trend.

They are not too tired to wear so many layers.

Peter the Great was able to change his clothes, and imposed beard tax and clothes tax on those who did not meet the regulations. Who said he couldn't?
Then he admired the scenery of the palace, thinking of the situation in Europe, and thinking of the East at the same time.

Now in 1744, the first year of Qianlong is 1736, so it should be the ninth year of Qianlong over there.

Peter sighed, crossing... never going back...

He thought that as early as the Yongzheng period, that is, in 1729, the Qing Dynasty had sent people to visit. At that time, it was the Manchurian servant Tuoshi who was supposed to meet Peter II to celebrate his accession to the throne. Yongzheng was preparing to use troops against the Junggar tribe. , the purpose is to hope that Tsarist Russia will remain neutral in this war.

This is also the first time that the Qing Dynasty officially sent a diplomatic mission to a foreign country.

At that time, the relationship between Russia and other countries and the Qing Dynasty was different. For example, Vietnam (Annan) and the Qing Dynasty had a tribute relationship, and Vietnam and other countries were the vassal states of the Qing Dynasty.

It has a commercial relationship with the Netherlands and the United Kingdom. These Western countries are the trading countries of the Qing Dynasty. The Qing court traded with them with a soft and far-reaching attitude.

In other words, it is a favor to the distant people to allow these distant people to obtain the materials of the Qing Dynasty.

But it was different for Russia. Russia and the Qing Dynasty were "wealthy countries", and they were the only dynasties recognized by the Qing Dynasty. Qianlong himself said that the two sides had equal status and were truly diplomatic relations between the two countries.

And this state-to-state diplomatic relationship is built on the basis of fighting, and the results of this fighting are the "Treaty of Nerchinsk" and "Treaty of Kyakhta".

The premise of the Treaty of Nerchinsk was the Battle of Yaksa.

In the 16th year of Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, Golovin, governor of Yakutsk, sent Boyakov to lead 132 troops to invade the south along the Lena River.

In November, after these people arrived at the jurisdiction of the Daur headman Doptiur in the middle reaches of the Jingqili River, they looted everywhere and killed and eaten the Daur people. They were called "human-eating demons".

In the early summer of the following year, after the Jingqili River thawed, it broke into Heilongjiang, the largest inland river in the northeast of the East, and was resisted by people of all ethnic groups along the way.

Later, because Hou Jin fought against the Ming Empire outside the customs at the end of Ming Dynasty, and had no time to take into account the coveting of Tsarist Russia in the Heilongjiang River Basin, the Battle of Yaksa broke out.

From the last years of Shunzhi to the early years of Kangxi, Tsarist Russia used the Qing court to be busy with the unification of the country and the pacification of the San Francisco rebellion, and occupied the territory of Nerchinsk and Yaksa, and built forts and fortifications there.

Kangxi sent envoys to negotiate and warn many times, but none of them worked.

In September of the 22nd year of Kangxi, the Qing army sent people to order the Tsarist Russian invaders in Yaksa and other places to withdraw quickly.The leader of the Russian army ignored it, and instead sent people to Aihui to plunder.Sabsu defeated it and burned all the strongholds established by the Tsarist Russian invading army in the lower reaches of Heilongjiang, making Yaksa an isolated city.

This is the first Battle of Yaksa.

The strength of the Qing army at that time was mainly 1500 people from Ningguta led by Sabusu, plus 500 soldiers from Shengjing, and 500 additional rattan soldiers, making a total of about 2500 people, while the number of Russian troops was about 450.

In the autumn of the 24th year of Kangxi, Moscow sent 600 troops to reinforce Nerchinsk.When it was learned that the Qing army had withdrawn, Tolbuzin, the leader of the invading army, led a large number of Tsarist Russian troops to Yaksa again.

At the beginning of the next year, Kangxi received a report and ordered a counterattack.

In 1686, the Second Battle of Yaksa broke out, with more than 2000 Qing troops and 826 Tsarist troops.

As a result of this battle, the Tsarist Russian army was besieged, and many died of illness and disease. Of the 826 soldiers, only 66 remained.

Sophia, the sister of Peter I, was still in power in Russia at the time.

Sophia hurriedly asked Qing to withdraw from the siege, and sent envoys to agree on the border, and the Nerchinsk Treaty was born.

The main content is to delineate the eastern section of the border between China and Russia and establish Sino-Russian trade relations.

That is to say, after the war, Russia felt the strength of the Qing Dynasty, coupled with the threat of the Mongol Erut tribe, and was unwilling to fight against the Qing Dynasty. The Qing Empire realized that Russia had a vast territory and bordered it on land, so it could not be treated as a vassal state .

Then the two sides started equal trade in Kyakta and other places.

In 1729, Yongzheng sent someone to visit for the first time.

At that time, it was Peter II who planned to meet, but unfortunately the journey was too far, and he walked for more than a year on the road, and did not come to Moscow, the winter capital, until the spring of 1731.

At that time, Peter II had already died of smallpox, and Empress Anna was succeeded. The task of this line was immediately changed to congratulate Anna I.

Anna held a grand welcome ceremony for the arrival of the mission and gave a grand reception. After the reception, the mission and Russian officials reached an agreement on the affairs of the Junggar Ministry, which can be regarded as the establishment of a preliminary friendship.

The relationship between the two countries began to improve. In addition to the tax exemption for both parties during the Kyakhta trade, Russia was also allowed to set up a warehouse in Beijing, which is unimaginable in the eyes of other countries.

In the 58th year of Qianlong (1793), the British envoy Macartney visited China and proposed to Emperor Qianlong to follow the Russian precedent and set up a British warehouse in Beijing, but Emperor Qianlong directly rejected it on the grounds that it was not in line with the Chinese system.

This is discrimination.

Peter lamented that before the steam engine was invented, the steam locomotive was not born, and there was no railway in Siberia, it would have been several years earlier to send people to visit or invite people.

He wanted Qianlong to send people to popularize the harem system here.

Otherwise, what will Voronzova do in the future?

It is very likely that he will not only have Yeka and Vorontsova in his life. The reason why lovers are called lovers is that they can marry, and he cannot stand this.

After all, pure love for the party.

So as long as he ascends to the throne, the harem system must be established.

Thinking about it, Peter glanced at Voroncova who was following behind. Voroncova looked so pitiful in trembling now, and felt a little apologetic, so she smiled at her, took her hand and began to walk around.

Voroncova was instantly happy.
