Nanming: I can build wonders

Chapter 136 The Qing Dynasty must Collude with Imperialism
Nalan Mingzhu didn't dare to send the negotiation results to Kangxi by letter, fearing that the news would leak out, so she went all the way to Kangxi's South Study to report it in person.

Kneeling on the ground, Nalan Mingzhu burst into tears, telling how wronged and suffered during the negotiation process, and it was not easy to achieve such a result.

Kangxi flipped through the treaty, his face was gloomy, his eyes were like copper bells, he was furious, and he threw this shameful treaty on the ground.

Seeing Kangxi's reaction, sweat dripped from Nalan Mingzhu's forehead, and she leaned lower, not daring to speak out, for fear that Kangxi would notice him.

After a long time, Kangxi, who sighed, knew that this condition was relatively acceptable.

"This matter must not be publicized. The 700 million taels of silver were sent to Fujian in the name of famine relief. As for stopping the inland migration, we don't need to pay attention to them. Anyway, Mingzheng doesn't know whether we will stop or not." Kangxi said calmly.

It's a bit troublesome to lose a few small islands.

He knew very well that these small islands were occupied by Ming Zheng, forming a blockade chain from Fujian to Guangdong.

But if there is any way, even if he doesn't cut it, Ming Zheng will take it himself.

For the Qing Dynasty, the most important thing is to stop the state of war, at least Ming Zheng will not blatantly go ashore to plunder.

"Hey!" Nalan Mingzhu was ecstatic in his heart, but his face still had a sad look on his face. He got the 100 million taels, and he must handle the compensation.

Kangxi was not at ease when someone else came to handle it. If one less person knew about it, one less person would know about it. This matter would hurt his face.

But Mingzhu can take the money with peace of mind, take the money from the Qing Dynasty, and accomplish the affairs of the Qing Dynasty. After all, isn't it for the Qing Dynasty?
He took the money, didn't he still contribute to the Qing GDP?
In the end, he will return to the treasury of the Qing Dynasty, he is just a transfer.

As the saying goes, flowing water does not rot, and the hinges do not rot, so money must be circulated to be justified!
After suffering such a big loss, will Kangxi give up easily?

At the court meeting on the second day, he asked the new envoys to go to the Dutch to buy warships.

Now only in collusion with imperialism can we wipe out the banditry in the southeast!
The envoy sent this time is a heavyweight. His name is Li Xiangen, and his style name is Zijing. He is a famous diplomat in the Kangxi Dynasty.

In 1668, Li Weixi, the King of Annan, was good at attacking the envoy of the Annan capital of the Qing Dynasty, Mo Yuanqing. The news spread to the capital, and the courtiers elected Li Xiangen as the diplomatic envoy to go to the border.

Back then, Li Xiangen lived up to his mission and finally pacified the military incident in Jing'an. He became a famous foreign official of his generation.

This visit to the Dutch East India Company was a very heavy responsibility, and Kangxi immediately thought of him.

As an important member of the imperial court, it was the first time that a minister with such an official position as Li Xiangen went to Batavia as an envoy since the founding of the Qing Dynasty.

Fortunately, during this period, the country has not been completely closed to the outside world, and the atmosphere of the celestial dynasty has been formed, otherwise the officials below will definitely not follow.

If it was a period of seclusion and isolation, officials of the Qing Dynasty would definitely say: Even if an alliance is required, it is the red-haired barbarians who come to court!

For this mission, Minister of Rites Sai Sehei has already contacted Ma Hetai and other "Makasar Kingdom" spokespersons, and we are waiting for the capital to leave the ship!

Sai Sehei knew that the "Kingdom of Makassar" was at odds with the Dutch, so he told Ma Hetai that the mission of the Dutch East India Company this time was to solve the problem of hope and strive for an early regional peace in order to contribute to the peace of Nanyang. Make greater contributions to development!
"My lord, the Nanyang waterway is the most familiar to the people of Makassar, please rest assured!"

Ma Hetai naturally readily agreed, he is a fraud leader, and his only task is to trick the envoy to Luzon.

"Mr. Ma, please, after the matter is completed, my Daqing will definitely reward Makassar!"

Sesse Heiyu said earnestly.

In the 35th year of the Yongli calendar and at the end of December in the 20th year of the Kangxi reign, Li Xiangen finally set foot on the land of "Batavia" after wandering on the sea for more than a month.

For the authenticity of the voyage, the Makassar people such as Ma Hetai and Dawula took the Qing mission around the Bashi Strait several times.

Fortunately, these people were so seasick that they didn't find any clues.

Accompanied by Ma Hetai, the Right Minister of the Household Department of the Qing Dynasty and a bunch of his staff members walked down the escalator, a historic moment.

After getting off the boat, the dizzy Li Xiangen looked at the "Batavia Port" in front of him curiously.

In fact, this is Mingyan Port (Manila Port)!

Looking at the strange concrete buildings in front of him, Li Xiangen thought to himself that it really is the land of Xiyi. These buildings are really ugly and have no aesthetic feeling at all.

However, in order to pick up Li Xiangen for this trip, everyone in the Luzon Governor's Mansion had a hard time.

Just the Chinese characters on the Mingyan port wharf, you have to hide a lot!

Originally, Zheng Kezang wanted to detain Master Li directly, and then report a shipwreck to Kang Mazi, or be robbed by pirates halfway.

Anyway, the Qing Dynasty cannot comfortably collude with imperialism.

However, Ma Hetai and the missions got emotional with drinking on the boat. One night they got drunk and found out that they were here to buy warships.

As soon as Zheng Kezang heard that there was a sale, he realized that this was an opportunity to cheat the Qing Dynasty, so this scene happened today.

The person who pretended to be Cornelis Spellman, the governor of the Dutch East India this time, was the Spanish soldier Julio who was captured in the previous Luzon Dagupan landing battle.

As a progressive white slave of the Spanish Confederation, Julio learned a little Chinese while in the prison camp.

Later, he was fortunate to go to Dongning Military Academy to study with his class, experience the greatness of heroes in the Monument to the Chinese Heroes, feel the heroism of His Highness Zheng Kezang under the Arc de Triomphe, and confess his sins as a Spaniard in the Martyrs' Shrine.

In short, after being baptized by various miracles, he has become a loyal believer of Zheng Kezang, his loyalty is directly full, and he is proud to be a Ming Zheng soldier.

Now his chance has come. The wise Zheng Kezang promised that as long as he successfully completes this task, he will be officially naturalized in the Luzon Protectorate and become a decent citizen of Ming Dynasty!

Apart from him, many white slaves of the Spanish Confederacy were sent to Yizhou Island for cultural baptism. I don’t know if it’s because of these spectacle. .

Julio is the most progressive and loyal white slave among them, otherwise he would not be entrusted with important tasks today.

Julio was very young. Although he was devastated during his time as a white slave, it was not difficult to see that he was a bit young.

How to do it?

With a high salary, Wang Yang dug a young actor who is very good at dressing up from the Goulan of the Luzon Protectorate.

It's a pity that there are no four East Asian sorcerers in this era, otherwise it would be more reassuring to let old eunuch Li come as a cameo.

However, the make-up skills of this era are enough, it's just a little bit older.

In the words of that little actor: This painting keeps painting, it is not a barbarian devil!
