Chapter 43 is true in every way
Chapter 43 is true in every way
Leonie has recently been studying the Ming Dynasty's Book of Filial Piety.
She didn't understand the jerky truth in this book very well, but among the supplementary readings of the book "The Book of Filial Piety", there is an illustrated reading book called "Twenty-four Filial Piety Pictures".
The book was illustrated, and Leonie quickly understood the implications.
It's just that she doesn't think this book is good!
Therefore, incidentally, the perception of "The Book of Filial Piety" is also very poor.
"The emperor's brother is an elephant?"
"A 70-year-old chooses to pretend to fall in order to make older parents laugh?"
"To bury your son in order to feed your mother?"
"My wife's wife was divorced because of a needle prick on the wooden statue of my parents?"
"My mother is afraid of thunder, and after my mother dies, I have to go to my mother's grave and shout "Mom, don't be afraid" when there is thunder? ”
"Mom bites her fingers, and my son has a headache in the distance?"
"It was a harsh winter, there were no fresh bamboo shoots, Meng Zong had nothing to do, so he ran to the bamboo forest alone, helping the bamboo and crying. After a while, he suddenly heard the sound of the ground cracking, and saw a few young bamboo shoots growing on the ground? ”
The stepmother wanted to eat live carp, but it was freezing in the cold, Wang Xiang unbuttoned his clothes and lay on the ice, and the ice suddenly melted on its own, and two carps jumped out. After the stepmother ate, she really recovered? ”
"Want to taste the feces of the patient's father?"
"Mother-in-law wants to drink her daughter-in-law's milk and skip meals?"
"Oh my God, the Ming people are so pitiful......"
Leonie decided not to look at any of these things, and Leonie felt that she couldn't do it either, and she suspected that even the people in the book couldn't do it, especially the one who lay on the ice and melted the ice and jumped out of the carp, which was.
Leonie was lying on the ice, and instead of melting the ice, she almost froze to death.
"Dear Zhang, have you done all these things described in the book? Like tasting your father's feces? ”
Zhang Chuanli came, and Leonie asked him for advice as soon as possible.
Zhang Chuanli was stunned for a moment, but when he saw the book in Leonie's hand, he immediately understood that this was the fear of tasting dung in the story of the twenty-four filial pieties, so he shook his head and said: "Quan Daming, and even since ancient times, only this person named Yu Qianlou has done it. ”
"So, is your wife going to nurse your mother?"
"My family is normal, there is no such strange thing."
"So, have you ever been lying on the ice trying to melt it?"
"Do I look stupid?"
"Oh, so it's all a story, isn't it?"
Zhang Chuanli took the illustrated book of twenty-four filial piety, put it on the table and said: "This book is about loving one's parents, but the examples they chose were wrong, too extreme, and could not be used as a reference in daily life.
Just like the Bible that you have been studying, in practical life, your Lord cannot restore sight to the blind, not to make the lame into normal, not to let the dumb speak, and not to separate the sea to reveal a wide road. ”
"It's different, that's the Son, the Holy Spirit, and He is capable enough to do that."
"Oh, and the people in this book are the same, they're also saints, so you can't be surprised to do some weird things."
"How much did you sell my father?"
Leonie had always disliked the fact that people were arguing with her about the Bible, and since it was already called the Bible, there was no room for anyone else to do so.
"Your father thinks he plus the four thousand six hundred captives are worth a million silver coins of the galleon."
Leonie frowned, "It's too little, I thought fifteen million silver sailing coins were a fair price. ”
Zhang Chuanli said: "I didn't expect fifteen million, I think it would be good to have 10 million silver coins for the general to build her beloved Nanyang Academy." ”
Leonie said, "Can you leave this matter to me?" I think I'm more familiar with this Count of Rennes. ”
Zhang Chuanli said worriedly: "This will destroy your image in the eyes of others." ”
Leonie said lightly: "This is our family matter, I think others will understand." ”
Zhang Chuanli handed over the cell key in his hand to Leonie, and he also thought that Leonie could extort ten million silver coins from his father.
The complete defeat of the Dutch East India Company in the South Seas made the British Governor in India, Raymond, extremely worried, and he felt that once Han Xiufen, the Ming Governor of the South Seas, completely embezzled the South Seas, with his understanding of this powerful female governor of the East, it was only a matter of time before she led the fleet into India.
Therefore, he was eager to know how the East Indies and Dutch Company, which had been entrenched in Nanyang for decades, had failed to a certain extent, and whether it had the capital to compete with Han Xiufen, the governor of Nanyang in the Ming Dynasty, through support.
To this end, he contacted the highest governors of European countries in India, and after preparing to form a resolution, he would issue an ultimatum to the governor of Nanyang in the name of the collective. To ensure that the Dutch East India Company's presence in the South Seas was in the interests of all countries, and the Ming Dynasty could not infringe upon it at will.
Just when they were actively discussing and thinking that the First Fleet of the Ming Navy should be further requested to release the blockade of the Strait of Malacca and make this important strait connecting the maritime trade between the East and the West a public water, Governor Raymond received a document from Han Xiufen.
Han Xiufen's intention expressed in the document is very obvious, and the wording is also very polite, she believes that when European countries are cutting meat on the elephant in India to eat, the Ming Empire cannot be missing.
If the governors of the European countries cannot fully reflect the interests of the Ming Empire in the profit distribution table, then the first fleet of the Ming Navy will also enter India to give themselves a piece of the pie.
This is a very excessive request.
At least that's what Governor Raymond thought, the British Empire had been running India for a decade, and they had creatively partnered with Indian maharajas to enter India in this way. In the name of helping the maharaja unify India, he frantically grabbed India's wealth, and the effect was very good.
Nowadays, the Indian princes of the south have won the war against the northern princes, and as long as the armies of the southern princes can continue to advance north, they will be able to reap more wealth.
Now, it's troublesome, Han Xiufen is coming in.
And judging from the documents she sent, Han Xiufen is ready to start from the north, support a group of northern princes who dare to resist the army of the southern princes, and stage a tug-of-war on the vast plains of India.
"Han Xiufen is too greedy, this time the fifteen second-class battleships of the Dutch East India Company have arrived, I think the cannons on these battleships will shut up this ugly woman."
Junger, the director of the newly arrived Dutch East India Company, scoffed at Han Xiufen's suggestion.
Raymond looked at the young Jung with a smile and said, "If the Dutch East India Company is willing to send fifteen second-class warships to attack Malacca, then the British Empire will also send five second-class warships to follow.
In this matter, our interests are the same, and this empire from the East is an outlier for us. If we can't keep these yellow people in the Strait of Malacca, I think you continental countries will once again taste the whip of God.
The last time the Whip of God was a group of losers driven to the European continent by the Han Chinese, this time, you will face this most ferocious enemy directly, Pierre, I know that the British Empire and France have been at war for one hundred and sixteen years, hating each other, and even now they are still at war, but, in India, I hope that we can unite.
Defeat this arrogant Oriental woman first, and then divide the interests that belong to us. ”
"Governor Raymond, it is not enough to have the participation of the navy in order to enter the Strait of Malacca, and we all know that the Countess of the East has built sixty-one permanent batteries in Malacca.
And these heavy artillery is the biggest threat to our fleet, since all of us want to get rid of the hidden danger of the Ming Empire, then, first of all, we must send the army to clear these batteries, otherwise, once our warships enter the channel, they will become a live target for these batteries.
Now, who can volunteer to help us get rid of these troubled batteries?
Congressman Pierre, the French Army has always been known for its bravery, can you take on this important task? ”
Jung, a young director of the Dutch East India Company, seems to have become even more hostile to Pierre, the French governor in India.
The European aristocracy in this room knew the point of Jung and Raymond insisting on pulling France into the water.
Since the successful success of Charles I's Parliament in 1640, when the lawmakers called for restrictions on the king's rights, the situation in France has been like a powder keg baked on a fire.
Compared with the Ming Empire, which was also an imperial system, the French were extremely dissatisfied with the people in the position of king, so many people of insight believed that France at this time was the most dangerous enemy on the European continent.
Governor Pierre did not answer Junger and Raymond's question, but spread his hands and said, "India is big enough, isn't it?" I think that India of this size can accommodate all of us. ”
After listening to Governor Pierre's words, both Raymond and Jung were very silent.
However, Governor Pierre did not stop his speech, and said to Jungger: "His Excellency Wren, the legendary director of the Dutch East India Company, has now become a prisoner of Governor Han Xiufen, along with the four thousand six hundred staff and sailors, officers and soldiers of the Dutch East India Company.
Moreover, just three days before Governor Raymond convened this meeting, I received a letter from Governor Han Hsie-fen in which she asked me to consult with Director Jung whether I could give her ten million silver coins of the Sailing Yacht, so that she could have the money to build a university that would benefit the whole of Nanyang.
I was in favor of this, and promised Governor Han Xiufen that he would find her at least ten professors from Paris.
I hope that Director Jung will agree to Governor Han Xiufen's wise idea of quelling the war, so that the Goddess of Peace will descend on this turbulent sea. ”
