A swaddling baby was held by Sister Cao with both hands and stuffed into Emperor Zhu's hands. This was a red-skinned baby, not fat and big, just over six pounds. The bridge of his nose was straight, his eyes were closed, and he seemed to be breathing. Huda sleep.
"Hahaha..." Zhu Cixiang looked at his grandson and laughed heartily. The child seemed frightened by the laughter. He opened his eyes and took a look, and then his little face wrinkled up. He looked very angry, and then he cried "Wow", the cry was very loud and full of energy.
Zhu Cixiang was also startled by his cry. He suddenly thought of something and asked Zhu Hexing, who was already grinning from ear to ear: "Good luck, your son should be born with the character "Yi" next to the character "金", right?"
The style of Zhu Di's lineage is "Gao Zhan Qi Jianyou, Hou Zai Yi Chang You, Ci He Yi Bo Zhong, Jian Jing Di Xian You". Zhu Cixiang is the generation of Ci, Zhu Hexing is the generation of He, and Zhu Hexing's son should be the generation of Yi. generation. In addition to the character generation, Zhu Yuanzhang also stipulated that "wood, fire, earth, gold, and water" should be used as another side in the names of his descendants, in order of descending. The character "纺" in Zhu Cixiang has fire, and the character "Xing" in Zhu Hexing has earth. Zhu Hexing's son's name must have gold in it.
"Father is absolutely right," Zhu Hexing said with a smile, "Father, please give me a name!"
"Wow wow..."
The child is still crying!
Zhu Cixiang smiled and said: "Seeing that this little boy is crying so vigorously, I will give him a 'uranium', and add an involuntary excuse next to the gold. He is called Zhu Yiyu, and his nickname is little boy."
What does crying fiercely have to do with uranium? Zhu Hexing really didn't understand, and he didn't understand why Zhu Cihong named his grandson Little Boy? Isn't this nickname too common compared to "rich boy" and "lucky boy"?
At this time, Zhu Cixiang said to Zhu Hehao next to him: "Loud tycoon, your eldest son's name will be Yipu. Add an unnecessary "no" next to the gold letter... let's call him Fatty!"
Why is he called a fat man? Zhu Hehao was also speechless. He, Ah Huan and Ah Hai were not fat, so would their son be born fat?
But no matter how speechless he was, he had to thank En and do as he was told. Who made his father the emperor? Not to mention calling him "Fat Man", even if he nicknamed his son "Bastard", he still had to thank him!
When Zhu Cixiang saw his son thanking him, he smiled and said: "It will take thirty or forty years for the little boy and the fat man to do big things. By then, the power of the Celestial Empire will depend on them!"
Emperor Zhu certainly had expectations when he named his two grandsons (one of whom was not yet born) such names.
Because he knew that the world would undergo great changes more than thirty years later, and Louis XIV's empire would reach its peak...perhaps the merger of France and Spain would be completed!
According to news coming back from Europe, Louis XIV's France had achieved a complete victory in the Heritage War at the end of 1668 (the end of the 20th year of Hongxing). Not only did it force the Netherlands to form a "land and sea alliance" with France, but it also defeated the Spanish-Austrian coalition that was subsequently formed (because Louis XIV's army invaded the Principality of Lorraine, triggering Austria's participation in the war), and captured France - With the Duchy of Comté and Lorraine, and the previously occupied Spanish Netherlands, France's territory has been greatly expanded!
Moreover, France also defeated three European powers in one fell swoop through this war, and turned one of them into its most reliable ally, thereby establishing its position as Europe's number one power.
If this trend continues, when the War of Spanish Succession breaks out, there may be no way to prevent France from annexing Spain by gathering the power of Inciopuri and other countries.
In addition to the possibility of France becoming the absolute hegemon in Western Europe, the Rakshasa Kingdom in Eastern Europe will also welcome the greatest Tsar Peter I in history in 20 years!
Zhu Cixiang doesn’t think he can push all the way to Europe in 30 years... We are now in the 17th century before the Industrial Revolution. No matter how strong the Ming Dynasty is on the west coast of the Pacific, it is impossible to send tens of thousands of troops. Europe beyond.
According to Zhu Cixiang's prediction, the conflict between the Ming Dynasty and the Europeans will be long-term and may last for two to three hundred years. In the next twenty or thirty years, neither side will have the strength to attack the other side's lair. Both can only adopt containment strategies to attack each other. The frontiers of collision between the two sides will appear in Central Asia, India, North America and South America.
By the way, the Tianfang Sect forces will still be very active in the next twenty or thirty years! Maybe he will become a dark horse and do something that will surprise both Ming Dynasty and France.
Therefore, the world in thirty or forty years will definitely not allow "little boys" and "fat men" to enjoy peace!
They have to work hard!
...
Inside the Wuhua Palace in Kunming, drums and music are now singing.
This drumming sound was played for a Western mission from afar. It was to the tune of a folk song in northern Shaanxi, and it was very high-pitched. In the main hall, there was a state banquet, and there were some dancers who could tell from their skin color that they were from Myanmar, dancing hard in a Southeast Asian style dance.
This northern Shaanxi folk song paired with Southeast Asian dance... is actually quite interesting.
However, Li Jicheng showed little interest. He just sat on the dragon chair, squinting his eyes and motionless.
Today's visit to Kunming is a joint mission brought by the Dutchman Bruce Van Diemen. It includes not only envoys from the Netherlands, but also envoys from France. His name is Fu Kaizi. It is said that he is a very remarkable person. A character who once served as the Minister of Household Affairs in France! This time he came with an important mission... It seems to be for France's interests in Tianzhu!
This France is far in the west of Europe, thousands of miles away from Tianzhu, why should it get involved?
Besides, even if it is for the benefit of Tianzhu, there is no need to come to Kunming!
Isn’t there a Timur Empire in Tianzhu? If the French want anything, they can just negotiate with Aurangzeb, the emperor of the Timur Empire. Why come to Kunming?
Could it be that he wants to join Dashun to go to Tianzhu to grab money? This matter can be considered... Dashun has lost the land of Tianfu in Sichuan, and is looking for a place to make a profit!
However, these Westerners are very strong militarily, especially the navy, which Dashun cannot deal with at all. If the French were really allowed to gain a foothold in Tianzhu, would Dashun, who had gone to Burma, still have a peaceful life?
But Dashun couldn't offend France's ally, the Netherlands... Without the help of the Dutch, Dashun would not have been able to go to India to steal money. Without India's money, Dashun would have gone to Burma, but he would still be hanging on!
After much deliberation, Li Jicheng actually ran out of ideas for a while!
At this moment, the music of Shaanxi folk songs came to an end, and the French envoy "Fu Kaizi", who was so dizzy from the noise, finally found a chance to speak, stood up and chatted in French.
But Li Jicheng didn't understand it at all, and none of his ministers knew French, so he had to wave to Bruce: "Mr. Fan, what on earth is he talking about?"
Bruce Van Diemen leaned forward and said with a smile: "Ambassador Fouquet said that King Louis of France was very worried about the Ming Empire's invasion of Tianzhu... He was worried that the rich Tianzhu would become a colony of the Ming Empire! "
Li Jicheng smiled: "This is impossible... The disabled Emperor Zhu has a good relationship with the Emperor Aurangzeb of India. Aurangzeb has given him all his daughters to sleep with. He will not be honest anymore." , he can't go to Tianzhu to grab money, and he can't reach it. His soldiers in Malacca are so far away from Tianzhu, and it would be a lot of effort to go there.
Mr. Fan, did King Louis make a mistake? Did Zhang Guanli blame Can Ming for the fact that our family went to Tianzhu to rob money? "
Bruce Van Diemen was a little speechless. Is this Dashun Emperor drunk or something? Why are you talking nonsense? Why did the Netherlands go to Tianzhu to steal money? Nothing, this is slander! This is a rumor!
It's obviously your family who went to Tianzhu to steal money. We only provide you with transportation and information services and charge reasonable fees.
