Kangxi's Happy Life

The days passed peacefully and strangely, and when I was feeling bored, Heaven brought me joy.

On this day, I was looking through the notes on the imperial case, and suddenly found a very interesting introduction.The minister of the Ministry of Rites reported that Portugal sent envoys to see him.

I can't help but smile.This is interesting!

A few days ago, I remembered that I had been to Macau casinos before, and I couldn't help feeling nostalgic.In the Qing Dynasty, Macau was rented and occupied by Portugal.He ordered it back.Unexpectedly, within a few months, the Portuguese envoy would come to Beijing.It's really fast.

After Yinbi returned to Beijing, he worked as an errand in the military department every day, and he didn't spend many days by my side.I know he is eager to make some achievements, like accepting them.Although I was happy for him in my heart, there was still a little loneliness unavoidable.

The Portuguese envoy came just in time to give me a little fun.

In the morning of the next day, I received these Portuguese envoys.The Qing Dynasty had many vassal states, such as Korea, Ryukyu, Annam, Burma, Siam, Gurkha, Zhe Mengxiong and so on.These countries pay tribute every year.Therefore, the ministers have long been familiar with the foreign envoys.

I know a lot about Portugal. In the middle of the 16th century, the Portuguese reached the southeast coast of China. In 1553, under the pretext of "borrowing land to dry flooded goods", he was allowed to temporarily live in the Macau Peninsula by bribing officials of the Ming Dynasty.Within a few years, the Portuguese settled into villages and set up their own officials, establishing what they called the earliest stronghold in the Far East.

With the long time of residence and the prosperity of trade, the Portuguese living in Macao have become increasingly arrogant.Guangdong officials had discussed how to expel these uninvited guests, so the Portuguese ship merchants, in addition to paying the ship tax, bribed Guangdong officials with 500 taels of silver every year to consolidate their position in Macau. In 1572, when Portuguese merchants presented 500 taels of silver as a customary gift, due to the presence of other Chinese officials, the translators of the Portuguese merchants could only say that it was "land rent silver" paid to the Chinese government. Silver" turned over to the treasury.Since then, the bribes of Portuguese merchants have become land rents.

But I will never rent Macau to Portugal at the price of 500 taels of silver.When they paid the rent at the beginning of the year, they refused.They were ordered to leave Macau within six months.

That's why the Portuguese envoys came to the capital, hoping to ask the Qing emperor to withdraw his order.

I listened to the Portuguese envoys babbling in awkward Chinese.In fact, I really want him to speak Portuguese, so it will be easier for me to communicate with him after all.But after thinking about it, forget it.I don't want myself to be a translator, and the master should act like the master.

After all, it’s about conditions. I heard that he has increased the land rent from 500 taels to 1000 taels.I shake my head.Even 1 taels, I will not rent it to you.I also plan to develop it into the largest casino in the world.

The Portuguese envoys saw that money could not impress me, so they offered to offer the most precious treasure of their country to obtain the right to rent Macau.

This makes me interested, baby?What treasures will Portugal have?

Looking at the dark brown lumps that came up, I suddenly became angry.However, as a habit in my previous life, I seldom showed obvious emotions at the negotiating table, so the Portuguese envoy didn't see that I was in a bad mood, and he bragged there: "The most expensive His Majesty the Qing Emperor, this is a blessing ointment. It is a precious national treasure of our country.

It is also very convenient to use, as long as it is twisted into small balls or strips, roasted on the fire and cooked until soft, then stuffed into the smoke pot of the bong, aim the smoke pot at the flame, and inhale the smoke produced by the burning, and you will live forever , a lot of fun.

After listening to the bragging of the Portuguese envoy, the ministers of the DPRK and China couldn't help becoming curious about the strange lump.

Portugal, how nice are you guys?How dare you send me something like this.Wouldn't I be sorry if I didn't do something?

"Since you said that this thing prolongs life and is immortal, then give us a try." I said casually.

The Portuguese envoy waved his hands again and again, "Don't dare, this medicine is for His Majesty, how can a vulgar person like me use it?"

I don't care what he said: "Come here, take these Portuguese envoys down and let them use up all these precious medicines. I want to see how miraculous the effect of this medicine is."

The guards took the order to go, and immediately took a group of Portuguese down.

"What are the effects of these things, let's wait and see, dear friends!"

Listening to the suppressed anger in the emperor's tone, everyone understood that the emperor was really angry.

Regardless of whether this drug prolongs life in the eyes of Portuguese people like them, but this future man knows the dangers of opium very well.Since such a thing was brought over by such a coincidence, he could just use this as an opportunity to issue a smoking ban.You can also use this as an excuse to get a piece of the pie within their strength, which really kills two birds with one stone.

In my own memory, although the Portuguese country is small, its strength is really not weak.Even more rare is the learning and popularization of advanced knowledge.

After Portugal carried out the Atlantic expedition in the 15th century, it began to vigorously develop the nautical school and strengthen the knowledge of cartography.In the 16th century, Portugal finally became the first country in Europe to open a route to India.Macau also fell into the hands of Portugal.Now that he had sent himself a drug, and wanted to murder the emperor, this crime is not light.Then I won't treat them too much in the future.

But Portugal really has its own uniqueness in sailing, let Honger interrogate them when the time comes.With drugs, why can't I ask them?

In the autumn of the 24th year of Kangxi, the Portuguese envoy offered medicines to murder the emperor, but was fortunately discovered by His Majesty. After that, the Portuguese envoy and his party committed suicide in prison.

Emperor Kangxi issued an imperial edict: No poppy products can be planted or sold in the territory of the Qing Dynasty, and those who violate the order will be beheaded.If foreign chambers of commerce conduct trafficking, they will be deported immediately.

"Huang Ama, how do you know that the blessing ointment is poisonous?" Yinyi was very curious about this, at first he thought that the blessing ointment could really prolong life, but who knew it was such a poison.Thinking of Haicheng Gong Zheng Keshuang going to interrogate the Portuguese, he simply asked and said something in order to be able to inhale drugs, which was more effective than any torture.He couldn't help shivering.If the emperor's father really fell into their trap, wouldn't the Qing Dynasty ask for anything from them in order to get drugs?

I smiled: "How can there be any real way of longevity in this world? Huang Ama doesn't believe this, so she naturally doubts their intentions."

Yinfeng breathed a sigh of relief, but fortunately Huang Ama was alert. "Can't we just settle with them like this?" Yinfeng said bitterly, thinking that what they wanted to kill was his Huang Ama, so he didn't get angry at all.

"I have ordered it to go down, and trade with Portugal in the future, so that they will pay three times more silver."

Yin Yin and the others suddenly had black lines all over their heads, and Huang Ama was too greedy for money...
