Aixinjueluo Yinti dismounted from his horse at the main entrance of his Prince's Mansion and walked slowly inside. The candidate Mongolian Khan was a little excited today, so he walked very fast, as if he was charging. But after entering the door and walking around the screen wall carved with dragon patterns, he suddenly stopped and his eyes widened, as if he had seen some unbelievable scene.
It turned out that it was Yinti's successor, Mary Anne, who for the first time put on a flag suit with a white blouse, and also wore two hair ornaments of a banner woman, leading a group of Yinti's concubines and children to kneel down to greet him. His arrival.
When Yinti was in a daze, Mary Anne kowtowed again and said in unfamiliar Manchu: "I respectfully welcome the Great Khan back to his home. Long live the Great Khan! Long live the Great Khan!"
Although this Mary Anne has a father who is a great emperor, she is not as domineering and arrogant as Sofia, and she is also very good at pleasing men. In addition, she is beautiful, with a good face and a good figure. Although she is already in her thirties, she has never given birth to a child and knows how to take care of herself, so she can still hold Yinti tightly. And Yinti did not disappoint her. When he went out two days ago, he was still a prince. When he came back today, he was already a Mongolian Khan!
Mongolia is now one of the three largest powers in the world! Although there were two elders, the Southern Emperor and the Northern Khan, the status of the Queen of the Great Khan was only higher than that of the queens of the second-tier European powers.
So after receiving the news, Mary Anne happily put on the flag dress and returned it to her husband. The Northern Khan of Mongolia, Yinti, who was about to ascend the throne, came and knelt down to greet him.
Seeing Mary Anne's softness and charm, Yinti naturally fell in love with this woman even more. He quickly stepped forward to help her up. Just when he was about to laugh, he remembered that Ama had just died and he should act more sad, so he forced her to Shengsheng withdrew her smiling face and changed her expression to one of dumbfounding. Then the two couples walked hand in hand to the back house of the palace.
There is a Western-style building with only one floor in Yinti's palace, which is modeled after the Grand Trianon in Versailles. It is the comfortable home of Yinti and Mary Anne. The two couples walked into the Western-style building together, found a sofa and sat down together in a hall equipped with several large floor-to-ceiling glass windows. Then a black eunuch wearing Western waiter clothes brought hot black coffee. Yinti took the coffee, took a sip, and said to Mary Anne in fluent French: "Mary, I'm sweating so much right now." I’m just a candidate, and I’m not sure whether I’ll be the final candidate!”
Mary Anne was stunned: "Your Majesty, now two of the six elder brothers have died and two have fled, leaving you and the fourth elder brother alone. If you don't deserve to be the Great Khan, who else can?"
Yinti said: "Honghao!"
Aixinjueluo Honghao is the eldest son of Yin? His mother is the daughter of King Ayuqi of the Turghut tribe and his white slave girl. She is a mixed-race beauty. Probably because both his parents are of foreign descent, this Honghao was like a doll when he was a child, very lovable. Kangxi even treated him as his darling and even gave him the name "Hao"... which clearly meant that he was going to be the emperor's grandson!
"But he is still a child..." Mary Anne looked at her husband with some worry, "He won't fight again, will he?"
Yinti looked at his wife and smiled slightly: "Fortunately, we have you, otherwise the civil war in Mongolia would have been endless."
"I?"
Yinti nodded: "Yes, you are the daughter of Louis the Great! Why should Sofia fight with you? Isn't it her brother Peter I that Sofia relies on? But Peter I is also a good friend of mine. I can let my heir Marry the daughter of Peter I..."
"That's all?" Mary Anne looked at her husband, "Dear, Peter I doesn't have a daughter now, he only has one son."
Peter the Great's daughter has not yet been born... After he straightens his Lithuanian mistress Catherine I, he will have two official daughters, one is Anna Petrovna, the "silly emperor" of Peter III "Mother. The other one is Elisabeth Petrovna, who almost became the emperor - if she had lived just a little longer, she would have driven Frederick II of Prussia to death! If Prussia can be destroyed, then this emperor will be really good!
I don’t know if one of these two will become Yinti’s daughter-in-law?
But now, Peter did have no daughter to marry.
Yinti thought for a while and then said: "I can also form the Caspian Sea Division after becoming the Great Khan, send troops to the west and south of the Caspian Sea, and help Peter attack Persia!"
Peter the Great is now unable to expand east or west. To the north is the Arctic Ocean, which is too cold... Most of the routes for southward expansion are blocked by the Ming Dynasty, Mongolia, and the Ottomans. So Persia became the only place that could satisfy Peter's desire for land!
During his lifetime, Yin? had been cooperating with Peter's expansion ambitions, attacking Persia on the Afghan plateau, and was also preparing to launch a full-scale invasion. Unfortunately, before this plan could be implemented, he himself died inexplicably.
Therefore, Peter I's Persian plan was about to run aground.
Mary Anne nodded: "Peter I should be satisfied, but what about Sofia?"
Yinti said: "Xianhan's investment in the Rakshasa Kingdom, Great Mongolia's shares in the Suez Canal, and Great Mongolia's colony on Kosotra Island can all be given to Sofia and Honghao... The fourth child also promised Give Sofia and Honghao a large annuity every year, and this annuity can be inherited by Honghao’s descendants.”
Mary Anne shook her head: "I'm afraid it's not enough."
"Not enough?" Yinti was stunned, "Then what else does she want?"
Mary Anne said: "How about this. The king and the four kings can join forces with Peter to carve up Persia, cede a large piece of land in Persia to Honghao, and let him be an Ilhan.
In addition, didn’t our Great Mongolia make a secret agreement with Frank to carve up the Ottoman Empire? After destroying Persia, we can go to war against the Ottomans. If we can win, then all the land along the Persian Gulf will be included in the Ilkhanate! "
How did Mary Anne know what was beneath the Persian Gulf? If this thing really comes to fruition, then those who "have a piece of cloth on my head and I am the richest in the world" will probably be Honghao's descendants!
"Okay!" Yinti said with a smile, "As long as Queen Mother Suo is willing to take a step back, I can swear to God, Buddha, and Changshengtian that Honghao will become Yierhan! As long as the territory of the Persian Gulf can be conquered, all of it will be Honghao’s!”
...
The Summer Resort has now turned into a sea of white... There are white flags, white streamers, white cloth strips, and white paper money everywhere! On both sides of the road entering the Summer Resort Castle, there were even more people dressed in white: Huiba Banner, Indian Banner, Sikh Green Camp and Brahmins. The great monk Galdan led his eight thousand musketeer monks to line up outside the villa and fortress to chant sutras!
The solemn and majestic voice of "Namo Amitabha" is enough to shock all religions!
The coffin of Aisin Gioro Yixin, the Prince of Kabul in Mongolia and the Crown Prince of the Indian Empire, has been carried by the 14th prince Yinzhen and Mary Anne, as well as Yinzhen's general Maxim Gagarin, and tens of thousands of people. Escorted by Cossack cavalry and Turghut cavalry, they arrived outside the north gate of the summer resort.
The archway for mourning and the pavilion for Empress Dowager Sofia to rest had already been erected. Sofia, who has experienced the pain of losing her husband and son, has obviously lost weight and is getting older. She was dressed in black and sat in an armchair accompanied by her grandson Honghao and her daughter-in-law Qiqige. Seeing Yinqi, Mary Anne and others coming supporting Yinqi's coffin, the old lady (actually only in her forties) broke down in tears. With the help of her daughter-in-law, she stood up from the chair and walked towards her tremblingly. That huge coffin.
Yinzhen wanted to say something to comfort the old lady, but before he could say anything, the old lady had already glared at him with a cold and stern look: "Fourteen, who killed my son?"
who is it?
Yinzhen really didn’t know, maybe it was Yinxiang’s people who did it (of course it was Yinzhen behind the scenes)! It might also be someone from Yinti who did it! But it definitely wasn't Yinreng's people who did it...
"It was the second brother's gunman who did it!" As he spoke, Yinzhen took out two very strange-looking bullets - this was a "cork bullet" with a flattened warhead, which is also a Minie bullet. bomb.
"This is the Ming Dynasty's cork bullet..." Yin Fang said, "Only Yin Feng's army has a small amount of them, and they are all used by sharpshooters."
The secret of the cork bullet has long been cracked!
The technological content of this kind of bullet is not high, and the bullets fired must have been picked up by others. It is impossible to keep it secret all the time.
However, the Great Mongolia did not equip corks and rifled guns in time because they had too many muskets in stock and there were no major battles to be fought recently. But Yinreng's army got some rifled guns and cork bullets from somewhere!
Of course, it was definitely not these two bullets that killed Yin? These two bullets were dug out from the wounded soldiers under Yin?
Sofia glanced at the two deformed bullets, without saying anything else, she stroked Yin? I will never forgive the enemy who killed you, never!"
"Queen Mother!" Mary Anne spoke at this time, speaking in French, "Prince Zhi and Prince Yong have executed Yin Reng according to the order of Xian Khan, so the great revenge of the sixth elder brother has been avenged!"
After hearing this, Sofia turned her head and glared at Mary Anne, and said word by word: "So those two illegitimate children can divide up the country that should belong to Nicholas and Honghao with peace of mind?"
Mary Anne smiled: "They are not illegitimate children... they are concubines! However, Great Mongolia implements the election of khan system. As long as they get the majority of votes from the Wuba Banner nobles, Horqin nobles and Buddhist monks, They can become the legitimate Khan and Emperor of Mongolia! My father and your brother will definitely support them in ruling Mongolia. By the way, the Ming Emperor will also support Si Age, his envoys and Thirteen My elder brother Yinxiang is escorting the second elder brother’s coffin to Suiye, where there is a delegation from the Ming Dynasty!”
How smart is Sofia? She immediately understood that it turned out that Yinzhen and Yinzhen were already looking for the wild father outside!
Seeing that Sofia remained silent, Mary Anne added: "Queen Mother, although the Khan Election Meeting will not elect a child to be the Khan of Great Mongolia, King Zhi and King Yong will not treat Honghao badly... ..Honghao will be named a prince and have hereditary privileges. You and Honghao will also receive an extremely generous annuity, which is also inheritable!
Xianhan's assets in Rakshasa, Great Mongolia's shares in the Suez Canal, and the colony on Sorat Island were all owned by Honghao. In addition, the eldest brother and the fourth brother also promised to send troops to carve up Persia with the Rakshasa Kingdom, and transfer a share of the proceeds to Honghao, making him Ilhan. After the Ottomans are destroyed in the future, all the land in the Persian Gulf will be owned by Honghao! "
Sofia is not an irrational mother, she is a quite mature female politician, so she is seriously thinking about the conditions offered by Mary Anne. First of all, Kangxi's assets in Rakshasa, Mongolia's equity in Suez Canal, Sorat Island, etc. can all be cashed out immediately.
Secondly, an extremely generous annuity... you can negotiate how generous it is, and once negotiated, it should be cashable. There are 80 million Indians to exploit, and those two people will not waste the annuities of orphans and widows.
Thirdly, the carving up of Persia and the destruction of the Ottomans... did Ming Dynasty agree? It's okay to join forces with Peter to cut Persia a few times and divide it into pieces of territory, but if you want to destroy it, at least don't even think about it while the Grand Duke and Emperor of the Ming Dynasty are still alive! So this is basically a "long-term goal", or "painting the cake".
"Honghao and I will live in Daman Port..." Sofia said thoughtfully, "my Cossack guards will be responsible for the security."
Daman Port is located on the west coast of the Indian subcontinent, adjacent to the Bay of Cambay. It is the southernmost port city of the Great Mongolia and the bridgehead for the expansion of the Great Mongolia to the west coast of the Indian subcontinent. Although Kangxi did not plan to unify southern India, he did not completely reject the possibility - just because he did not do it, it did not mean that his descendants would not do it. So after capturing Daman, he spent a lot of money to invest and operate it, making it the second largest port in Greater Mongolia after Diu.
Sofia, who is very afraid of heat, chose the hot Daman as her retirement place, of course to preserve the possibility for Honghao to compete for the Mongol Khan and the throne again. Because as long as she and Honghao don't leave, they can continue to influence the Yinba Banner, Huiba Banner and the Buddhist Sangha... This is fifty or sixty votes!
Even if Honghao fails to become the Southern Emperor and Northern Khan, relying on this strength, he can become a giant in Mongolia in the future, and maybe he can become the regent of Huangama like Dorgon!
If she leads Honghao to run away, then they will really become a wealthy family. They will no longer be able to aspire to the throne of emperor in the future, and there will be no hope of making much profit from India.
