Inside the majestic Alamgiri Gate of the Old Fort in Lahore, Kangxi Khan was wearing a thin yellow gauze embroidered four-piece golden dragon suit, a straw hat, and his daughter-in-law, who was much older than him. Sofia, crying together.
"Peter the Little Emperor", who had grown a lot taller and looked even more handsome, was also crying tears beside him.
Little Guizi's father-in-law was holding a white and fat little baby in his arms and undressing the three of them, "I express my condolences and accept the change. There is no resurrection after death..."
Kangxi also looked sad and advised him together: "Sofia, Brother Feodor is a devout believer in worshiping God. After death, his soul will definitely ascend to the Heaven of Eternal Life, stay with his heavenly brother Jesus, and enjoy eternal happiness. "
It turned out that the person who died was Sofia's brother, Tsar Feodor III. Because of the life-extending garlic medicine, the frail and sick Tsar lived four years longer than in history. This year, in February 1685, he died of illness in the Kremlin in Moscow. However, the Tsar's health had been very weak during these four years, so he did not leave any heirs.
And after the death of Feodor III, the only ones who can inherit the throne of the Tsar are the Tsar's idiot brother Ivan, smart brother Peter, sister Sofia, and Sofia's son...that is, little Guizi's father-in-law is holding him in his hands. The baby was white and fat. This child was born when Kangxi went to Kabul. Today was the first time that Kangxi saw him, so he didn't give him a formal name. He only had a foreign name named Nikolai.
Sofia, on the other hand, came to Peshawar from Samarkand because of the issue of the Tsarist succession - Peter had been learning "magic" from Kangxi for the past two years. Kangxi not only taught him personally, but also asked his "Queen Master" Qiling Zhenren Zhang Hongtian also became his teacher, teaching him all kinds of Chinese magic.
This time Kangxi sent troops to attack Aurangzeb and took Peter with him, which allowed him to experience a real war!
Sofia did not see her brother Peter in Peshawar, and learned that Kangxi Khan had captured Lahore, so she happily came to Lahore with her son Nicholas. When I arrived at the gate of Lahore Castle, I saw the longing Kangxi Khan and his younger brother Peter coming out to greet him, and I burst into tears.
Kangxi originally wanted to hug Nicholas, but now he had to comfort his wife while leading her into the splendid Lahore Castle... This is now the love nest of Kangxi and Sofia!
There are twenty-one beautiful buildings in the castle, the most majestic of which is the Forty Pillar Hall in the middle of the castle - this is now where Kangxi Khan held court meetings. There is also a marble pilgrimage platform outside the forty-column hall. At both ends of the Hajj platform are a square where large pilgrimages can be held and a small stage set in a pool.
In addition, in the Lahore Fort, there is also a harem called the Palace of Mirrors, which was the love nest built by Shah Jahan for his beloved wife Ajman Banu. Unfortunately, before the house was built, Ajman Banu died in childbirth. Aurangzeb did not like this luxurious style, so this mirror palace, which was like a palace in the sky, was advantageous to Kangxi Khan and Sofia.
The couple, together with the future Peter the Great and Xiao Guizi, who was holding a chubby little boy who was sleeping soundly and snoring, finally walked into the conference hall of the Palace of Mirrors... Kangxi called this place " South Study Room".
Kangxi, Sofia, and Peter all sat down respectively. Xiao Guizi, whose hands were sore from holding the baby, called two Indian maids and asked them to use a large cradle to put the little fat boy in first, and then ordered another maid Went to the kitchen and got a big plate of samosas and a bottle of wine.
Sofia ran all the way and cried sadly just now. Sure enough, she was hungry from crying. Now she forgot about her sorrow when she saw the food. She drank wine and ate this curry samosas, and her mood was indeed better.
As soon as she was in a good mood, Sofia started talking about business, and she said it in Mongolian: "Great Khan, according to the tsar's edict and the decision of the Moscow Duma meeting, Peter will become the next tsar!"
As she spoke, she glanced at her little brother.
In history, she once instigated the shooting army to rebel against Little Peter, made the fool Ivan the great tsar, and turned Peter into a nondescript little tsar... But now she needs a strong natal family to support her in the reign of Kangxi Khan. With the status around him, this person can only be Peter, not Ivan.
Therefore, the sibling relationship between Sofia and Peter has been excellent in the past two years.
Kangxi also knew that Ivan was a fool, and he also had a good relationship with Peter. Peter was not only his brother-in-law, but also his student, and Kangxi was also attracted to Peter from the beginning...
Looking at Peter, who had become even more handsome, Emperor Kangxi sighed - How about changing the looks of these two siblings?
Although he was reluctant to part with his brother-in-law, Kangxi still knew that national affairs should be the top priority, so he said to Peter: "Peter, since both Feodor and the Duma have chosen you to be the new tsar, don't delay. .....A country cannot live without a king for a day, and I am afraid of long nights and many dreams!"
He paused, then pointed at Little Eunuch Guizi, "I'll ask Tong Guowei to bring a thousand cuirassiers of Manchuria's Zhenghuang Banner and a thousand light cavalry of Mongolia's Zhenghuang Banner to escort you back to Moscow!
I also seized Aurangzeb's treasury in Lahore, which contained silver rupees, probably tens of millions! I'll get you some more later, so I can reward you when I go back to Moscow.
In addition, although you are extremely smart, you are still young after all. Don't be eager to take charge of the government after you return... I took office too early, lacked experience, and was overly cautious in doing things, so I suffered a big loss. Therefore, you should let the ministers and your mother be the regents first. You can learn more knowledge and then take charge personally when you grow up. You will definitely become a wise king. "
"Kangxi Anda, thank you." Peter the Little Emperor nodded gratefully, "I will remember your teachings, and I will definitely lead the Rakshasa Kingdom to become a great power in the West in the future, regain Constantinople, and rebuild the Roman Empire. !”
Recovering Constantinople is a slogan that the Rakshasa Kingdom has shouted for many years. They consider themselves the Third Rome. However, this slogan was not very realistic in the original history, but now the Ottoman Empire has captured Vienna and angered the Franks in Western Europe. Their eastern ally, the Hindustan Empire, has been hit hard by Kangxi Khan, and it looks like it will be attacked from both sides.
So "Little Brother Peter" might actually have a chance!
Kangxi nodded happily and said: "Peter Anda... I will definitely help you realize this ideal! But you should not rashly attack the Ottoman Empire and the Crimean Khanate. They have already obtained With the support of the Ming Dynasty, the military strength cannot be underestimated. If you want to regain Constantinople, you must first reorganize the internal affairs, train at least 200,000 new troops, and then reserve enough sugar and medicine, and then fight with the Franks in the west. People form alliances.”
"But where should I get sugar medicine?" Peter asked. "Rakshasa doesn't produce sugar, and sugar is very expensive."
Kangxi Khan smiled and said: "India produces brown sugar...and the craftsmen of the Ruba Banner know how to refine sugar. In the future, Lahore will become a sugar city, and there will be enough white sugar to supply Rakshasa and England, the Netherlands, and Spain, France, Sweden, Portugal. Then there will be great things to see from the Ottoman Empire and the Ming Dynasty!"
"Okay!" Peter nodded, "I'm waiting for your sugar!"
"Wow wow..."
At this time, Kangxi and Sofia's son Nicholas had already woken up. He was hungry when he woke up and cried when he was hungry...and his mother Sofia had just finished a plate of curry samosas and was still a little unfinished and wanted to try again. Asking for a plate, when he heard his son's cry, he quickly stood up and hugged his son. While coaxing him, he said to Kangxi: "Great Khan, you haven't given our son a formal name yet. What do you think we should call him?" ?What should Kangxi II do?"
Kangxi amused Sophia, "Kangxi is not my name, but the year of my reign... My sons are all of the same generation with the surname Yin. His foreign name is Nicholas, or let's call him Yinhe!"
