Oh?

Liangchen felt that his dog's body was shocked, and an unprecedented admiration was born from his face, and at this moment, his soul seemed to be washed by holy water.

He is like above the ocean, like under the sun and moon, like the height of the temple, like the distance of the rivers and lakes.

No matter how far-sighted he is, no matter how he is not shocked, no matter how he smiles at the wind and clouds, under that flash of holy light, he is an ordinary man after all.

Mortals can't do that.

That realm is as free and easy as a Jindan Dacheng, and as free and easy as a cultivated Yuanying.

This, the true temperament of the emperor also!

Liangchen can't help but film Wanli, and the film can be thrown to the ground.

As the Ninth Five-Year Honor, I refuse to let go of even a red envelope, how close to the people this is, and what a fuck I am!

Negligent and careless, how can such a low-level mistake be made!

It's not too late to make amends.

Liangchen's expression changed seventy-two times in an instant, and then with lightning speed, he took out the two red envelopes that had been put in his arms, and resolutely presented them to the Ming Emperor, who was more brilliant than him and countless times more brilliant than him, His Majesty Wanli.

Your Majesty, the minister's admiration for you can't be written even with the bamboo of Nanshan!

There's nothing more to say, everything, it's in this red envelope.

Liangchen's hand was trembling slightly, he was excited, and at the same time glad, because it was just right!

The Guerjia clan folded a total of ten red envelopes, and the good minister gave one Wang Tiqian, one Liu Cheng, and one Zhu Changxun, and just now they scattered again, and there were only two left. It would be embarrassing if there was only one left. The emperor and the concubine are husband and wife, and if you want to give it, you can give two, how can you give only one.

"Your Majesty, Niangniang, this is a little bit of the minister's heart, please accept it from Your Majesty and Niangniang!"

Liangchen originally wanted to say "Wishing you prosperity" in passing, but generally these four words will be followed by "red envelopes brought", which does not match the scene at the moment, which is embarrassing, and he decisively pinched off this wave.

"Ahh This... Good... Good... I have received your heart! ”

Wanli laughed, rubbed his hands a little excitedly, and actually stepped forward to get the red envelope.

"Your Majesty?"

Concubine Zheng Guifei was so stunned to watch her husband take the red envelope of the child.

She is really angry, angry that her husband is the emperor, how can he be so shameless.

In the main hall, everyone's expressions are also complex and changeable.

Zhang Cheng, the eunuch in a big red robe, twisted his head to the side, and it could be seen that this Da Jue was really a little shameful about what His Majesty the Emperor did. However, this thing is not easy to persuade.

For the Chinese New Year, what happened to His Majesty the Emperor asking for a red envelope? What's wrong!

But just watching His Majesty the Emperor lose his identity, as a eunuch with a pen, Gonggong Zhang really couldn't stand it, so he couldn't see it, and his heart was pure.

The eunuch in charge of the imperial pharmacy in a green robe, and the most trusted celebrity Cui Wensheng of the concubine Niangniang, was stunned at the same time, but his intestines were blue with regret.

You must have known that the emperor received red envelopes, and Grandpa Cui couldn't help himself if he didn't prepare a hundred or eighty.

Next year, next year!

Next year, we must prepare a big red envelope for the emperor!

Father-in-law Cui made up his mind, and thought about how to hide today's incident, Zhang Cheng is afraid that he will not cooperate with him, if everyone in the palace knows about the emperor's receipt of red envelopes, I am afraid that the competition will be fierce next year.

The woman holding the child in her hand is Wanli's daughter-in-law and Zhu Changxun's wife, Princess Fu Yao. The child she was holding in her hand was Zhu Youqu, the second son of King Fu, who was born last year.

The concubines of the Ming royal family are all daughters of commoners, so Yao's mother's family is a small family, and his father is a non-talented person, who makes a living as a western seat.

Yao had heard that his father-in-law was greedy for money, but he didn't expect his father-in-law to be so greedy that he even took the initiative to ask for red envelopes, which was really laughable.

Moreover, she was a little disgusted with the housekeeper specially summoned by the mother-in-law, because when the other party forced the red envelope into her hand just now, her eyes seemed to glance at the place where she shouldn't be looking, and she also gently touched the back of her hand.

This is really a failure.

The female official is Shang Yi Zheng Zi, the personal maid of the noble concubine, and her face is hot, not by herself, but by His Majesty the Emperor.

It's a son of heaven anyway, in front of your children and grandchildren, you're embarrassed.

Zheng Zi glanced at the smiling emperor and the stunned young lady, and then at the flattering young official, who really wanted to smash the red envelope that the other party had given him in the face.

is the most understanding and considerate of being a son.

Zhu Changxun looked at the red envelope in his father's hand with a smile on his face, thinking not that there was anything wrong with this, but that he was guessing whether the bread there was also thirty taels.

Wanli touched the two red envelopes in her hand, and she could ask for two red envelopes when she opened her mouth, where to find such good things.

Just as he was about to stuff the red envelope into his sleeve, a childish child's voice made Wanli's hands tighten subconsciously.

"Imperial Ancestor, I want it!"

Zhu Yousong, who was less than four years old, broke free from his mother Yao's hand, ran to his grandfather in a hurry, and stretched out his little hand to grab the two red envelopes.

Seeing this, Liangchen secretly praised: Sure enough, it's not a family, don't enter a family!

Wanli snorted, but raised his hand higher, and then looked at his grandson with a smile on his face and said, "Good grandson, this is a red envelope from someone to the emperor, how can I give it to you." Besides, don't you have one? ”

After speaking, without waiting for his grandson to speak, Wanli put the red envelope into his sleeve without hesitation, and then waved his hand at his grandson confidently, "Go to your mother, the emperor still has something to do." ”

This is a justified refusal.

Afraid that his grandson would still be pestering, Wanli hurriedly said to Wei Liangchen: "You are very good outside the Guan, Yang Hao told me about the matter of Jianzhou, and it was done well." ”

Hearing this, Liangchen hurriedly told him about getting back Gao Huai's IOU from the black-faced old man, and Wanli was even happier when he heard it. Because some of the money Gao Huai got must have fallen into his pocket, if Jianzhou made a big fuss about this matter, although it had nothing to do with his emperor, but if he really wanted Gao Huai to repay his debts, he couldn't really rely on him as an emperor, after all, although Gao Huai was recalled to Beijing, this account was recorded on the head of the Liaodong Mine Supervisor.

Who sent the Liaodong mine supervisor, he is the emperor!

As a great country, it still has the bearing of a heavenly kingdom.

There is really an IOU, and Wanli can't help but admit it.

Moreover, this matter is going to be used by the foreign dynasty to make a big fuss, and it is also troublesome to use it to attack the mine supervisor and tax collector, and now the creditor has eliminated the debt himself, and this matter has not been mentioned, there is no trouble, and there is no hidden danger, of course Wanli is very happy.

Wei Liangchen, this little guy, is really good at doing things.

Wanli couldn't help nodding, and then asked Zheng Guifei: "Is there anything else to do with Concubine Ai?" ”

Concubine Zheng may not have reacted, and she was stunned and didn't move.

Wanli asked again, Zheng Guifei Fang woke up, looked at Wei Liangchen, and then at her husband, but shook her head and said, "It's okay." ”

Wanli let out an "oh", turned his head to look at Wei Liangchen, and said with a smile: "It's okay, you can go back, I will go to the Queen Mother to pay New Year's greetings later." ”

"That's it?"

Liangchen was stunned, you husband and wife called me back for the New Year, just to get me two red envelopes?

was stunned, but Wanli asked the red-robed eunuch: "Zhang Cheng, has Matteo Ricci entered the palace?" ”

Zhang Cheng hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Emperor, people have already come, waiting." ”

"Tell him to come in, I'm waiting for Natu to make the Queen Mother happy."

Wanli waved his hand, and Liangchen wanted to withdraw honestly, but when he heard Matteo Ricci's name, he took a step slower, and found that Wanli didn't drive him away, so he wanted to look at the great Western monk before leaving.

Matteo Ricci, one of the earliest pioneers of the Catholic mission in China, came to the East decades ago and always wanted to come to Beijing. First in Macao, and then to Zhaoqing, Guangdong, Nanchang, Jiangxi and other places. In order to find a point of convergence between Catholicism and the East, Matteo Ricci studied Confucian scriptures diligently, and at the same time, in order to mingle with Chinese scholars, he gave himself the Chinese name Xitai and changed to Confucian clothes.

In the twenty-third year of Wanli, Matteo Ricci got the opportunity to go to Nanjing under the pretext of treating the son of an official who had gone north. During his stay in Nanjing, Matteo Ricci made friends with many famous people, such as Ye Xianggao, who was the current cabinet chief assistant and a waiter of the Nanjing Ministry of Rites, who became acquainted with Matteo Ricci at that time and facilitated his journey north to Beijing.

In the twenty-eighth year of Wanli, Matteo Ricci finally arrived in Beijing. As soon as he arrived in Beijing, Matteo Ricci began to arrange gifts and present tributes such as chiming bells, Bibles, "Atlas of Nations", and Atlantic pianos.

Emperor Wanli, who has always lived in the palace, is full of interest in the Western utensils presented by Matteo Ricci and others, and has two large and small self-striking bells, Wanli is the most favorite, and the small one is often played with by him; The larger one, placed in a beautiful attic, was in charge of the bell and drum division, which was in charge of telling the time in the palace.

Due to the complex structure of the chiming bell and the need for frequent maintenance, the missionaries were allowed to enter the palace regularly to overhaul it, and finally, because of the Wanli Emperor's appreciation of Western artifacts, he finally issued an order to allow Matteo Ricci and others to live in Beijing for a long time and enjoy the benefits of the Ming court.

During Matteo Ricci's stay in China, he donated a large number of Western artifacts to the Ming Dynasty and published books, and was known as "Western Confucianism" among officials. However, Wei Liangchen knew that the real purpose of this great Western monk was actually to spread Catholicism in China, and the things he brought were just stepping stones, or to curry favor with Wanli.

Liangchen was not interested in Catholicism, he was not interested in any religion, and he was not interested in Matteo Ricci, a great Western monk, but in the huge missionary class behind him.

To be precise, Liangchen was interested in Western craftsmen, so he wanted to meet Matteo Ricci to see if it would be possible to get in touch with Western technology and craftsmen through the other party in the future.

Nowadays, the science and technology of the Ming Dynasty is actually not weaker than that of the West, whether it is astronomy and geography or ordnance and firearms, there are very high numbers. However, due to the limited system, Liangchen had no way to contact these people on a large scale, because these people were mainly from the scholar class, and he, a miscellaneous person with a eunuch background, obviously could not enter the eyes of these people.

Then, it is necessary to obtain technical support from Westerners who are eager to preach in China, and then to carry out a subtle transformation of this era.

Matteo Ricci did not come in alone, but with him came an official, dressed in a green robe, a middle-aged man in his thirties, holding a long scroll in his hand, very thick, like a very long painting.

Matteo Ricci's appearance looks very dazzling and awkward, with the face of an old Western man, but wearing the Confucian clothes worn by scholars and doctors in the Ming Dynasty, which is very nondescript.

After the two entered the hall, they both gave Wanli a big gift.

"Mr. Xitai is becoming more and more like my Ming man now." It was Wan Guifei who spoke, and her tone was very close, it seemed that Guifei Niangniang had dealt with Matteo Ricci, and she did not reject this Western monk.

"Of course, the Fuqing Prime Minister said that he was a Western Confucian." Wanli laughed, looked at the middle-aged official, and asked, "Li Zhizao, have you redrawn the map of all countries?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, with the help of Mr. Li, it took three years for the ministers to finally redraw the map of all countries, and it will be presented to Your Majesty today!" Li Zhizao's tone sounded a little excited, obviously, he had been waiting for today.

Atlas of Nations?

Liangchen's gaze fell on the long scroll in Li Zhizao's hand, and he knew what the other party was holding in his hand.

He couldn't think of anything other than "The Complete Map of Kunyu Wanguo".

According to the historical records of Liangchen's previous life, the "Kunyu Wanguo Quantu" was drawn by officials of the Ming Dynasty, but the basis was the map of all countries dedicated by Matteo Ricci to Wanli.

This map is very similar to the map of the world that later generations, and it places China in the center of the world. Li Zhizao redrew and added a lot of geographical information about China, beyond the description of other countries, for Chinese provinces and important cities are marked in detail, and the map also depicts China's major mountains and rivers, such as the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, and shows in detail the provinces where they originated and flowed. In addition, world-famous rivers such as the Euphrates, the Nile, the Volga, and the Indus are also mentioned.

The geographical information in the "Kunyu Wanguo Quantu" is abundant, and in the absence of aerial photography and satellite positioning in ancient times, it basically reflects the actual situation at that time, which can be described as a miracle.

Under the gaze of Liangchen, Li Zhizao had already opened the long scroll with the help of Matteo Ricci, slowly pulled it out, and spread it on the ground.

Wanli had already taken Concubine Zheng's hand and walked down the steps, staring at the map motionlessly.

Fu Wang Zhu Changxun also let go of his son Zhu Yousong's hand and paced to the side to take a closer look.

The eunuch Zhang Cheng and the eunuch Cui Wensheng of the imperial pharmacy also looked at the picture with interest, they had heard earlier that Li Zhizao, the young secretary of the Taifu Temple, had been ordered to draw a complete map of all countries, and it was finally painted today, and they had the honor to see it first, but it was a great honor.

All nations, think that there are all nations besides my Ming Dynasty, so how big is this world!

After the whole map was unfolded, Wanli's gaze moved from the easternmost to the westernmost with a solemn expression.

Li Zhizao and Matteo Ricci were excited, and the other was smiling.

Liangchen also looked at it, and after a few glances, he saw Matteo Ricci with a smile on his face, like an old fairy, and suddenly felt that his time to pretend to be forced had come.

As far as the map goes, none of the people present have any of his Wei She.

Finally, it's my turn!

Liangchen raised his eyebrows, and a lewd smile appeared on his face.
