Extra chapter 3: The Great Sage Gets Married in the Great Demon Kingdom Chapter of the Great Chaos in the Late Ming Dynasty With the melodious wedding march playing in the church, the wedding of Queen Xu Xiner, the "Monkey King", officially began.
In the Haeju Cathedral, which is magnificent even by European standards, electric lamps with bud-shaped stained glass shades illuminate the exquisite murals on the church's circular dome brilliantly, and various gold-plated, plating Silver or silk-wrapped magical instruments also shine under the light.
Archbishop Findageros, wearing a red robe and holding a censer in his hand, walked to the lectern under the cross with a smile.
Looking up, in this spacious lobby that can accommodate four to five hundred people, only about half of the seats are occupied.
This is not because Queen Xu Xiner’s wedding received any strong resistance or criticism, but because most of the guests did not come to the church to watch the ceremony.
After the European-style Christian wedding in Haizhou Cathedral, the Queen and her husband also We rushed to the Chinese League garrison base, which was decorated as an open-air restaurant, to hold a Chinese-style wedding, and the real grand banquet was also held there.
Therefore, many wedding guests did not come to the church at all, but waited directly at the banquet hall.
According to Archbishop Fundajlos’ understanding, this double-style wedding is part of the “Australian characteristics” popular in East Asia today.
It is both keen on Western culture and retains traditional customs.
Although both Western culture and traditional customs are It was arbitrarily transformed by them.
If it were in Europe, such a mixed wedding that did not respect God and be unfaithful to faith would at least be criticized by the priests.
In the East, however, even the most fanatical Jesuits had to face reality and admit that too much emphasis on the "purity" of the faith would only mess everything up.
What's more, as the bride, the "Monkey King" Queen Xu Xiner, although she is wearing a white wedding dress, is not a Christian at all.
Well, even the white wedding dress worn by the Queen itself was an innovative invention made by the Australian Catholic Church.
The Jesuit missionaries were shocked when they first saw it, because there was no concept of white wedding dresses in Europe in the seventeenth century.
These days, it is popular for British brides to wear blue dresses to church, French brides prefer bright red dresses, and Italian brides can wear dresses of any color, but basically do not use white because in today's Europe, this is not necessarily the case.
The color of mourning clothes.
At least it is a sign of poverty, which means that the bride is too poor to wear dyed colored cloths.
But on the other hand, the Catholic Church has never strictly stipulated what color dress a Christian bride should wear at a wedding, because there is no uniformity within European countries.
The white wedding dress tinkered by Chinese travelers also does not offend.
What taboos do the Catholic Church have?
Therefore, after the news reached Europe, it was just treated as an anecdote and people talked about it for a while, and there was no more serious follow-up reaction.
What many people don’t know is that until the Victorian era in the 19th century, Western brides mainly wore blue or red dresses into churches to get married.
However, because Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom liked white, she used a white wedding dress in her wedding.
So the customs gradually changed.
Scarlett, the heroine of Gone with the Wind, is obsessed with the white satin dress, saying it is an ancestral tradition or something, but in fact this thing had only appeared twenty or thirty years ago.
It is possible that Scarlett's mother wore a white satin wedding dress, but her grandmother was probably married in a red or blue dress.
In the same way, the brides in Pride and Prejudice and Sense and Sensibility would actually rarely wear a white wedding dress.
In the eyes of the British at the time, this thing was probably more like mourning clothes or nuns' clothes: the nun's clothes in the 18th century.
It is pure white, and the style is more like a modern nurse uniform.
In short, Archbishop Findageros handed the incense burner to Tang Ruowang behind him, then took out a pamphlet and said aloud in front of everyone word for word: "Today, we gather before God to witness the sacred marriage contract of the noble couple, the groom Liu Daohai and the bride Xu Xiner, and to pray to the Almighty God to bless this noble couple.
As the Bible says: If not The Lord builds the house, but the builders labor in vain.
The Bible also says: In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will direct your paths.
Our Heavenly Father, we thank you for blessing mortals with families, mutual love, and happy marriages.
Let Christians focus on the real and important things in life every day in their busy lives, and guide Christians to dedicate their time, love and energy.
Marriage should be about a man and a woman helping each other become people who follow God's will and return to their deepest, most authentic selves.
The bride and groom create a new life together, allowing life to continue through them into the future.
Become someone who does God's will and you will inspire the world.
Liu Daohei and Xu Xiner, you chose to get married in the presence of a merciful God who is so loving to this world that He gave Himself to us through Jesus.
In the spirit of this merciful God, couples will give themselves to each other.
I pray that all of you watching the ceremony today will do whatever they can to support you in your new life.
I also pray that God will bless you and make you happy in the life you choose.
Many people are very frightened about the future prospects of our world, but the upcoming celebration in this city is still timely.
It is a day of joy, and people from the entire city and the entire country can come together for this wedding.
It's good to celebrate and celebrate a bright future, because every wedding day should be a day full of hope and joy.

Of course, there will still be a lot of danger and suffering in the years to come, but we still cannot give up our beautiful dreams.
No matter what difficulties we face, we are committed to loving each other kindly and looking forward to a new, more hopeful era.
Groom Liu Daohai and bride Xu Xiner, you have expressed your wish and are willing to enter this sacred marriage contract together, and no one has proved that you are not worthy of entering this sacred marriage contract.
Now, please invite the two newlyweds to enter, and let us welcome the bride and groom with heartfelt blessings and applause."
In fact, with Archbishop Findajeros' level of Chinese language beginner, he can barely master some of the simplest daily expressions at the moment, which is far from enough to speak such a long and complicated speech.
However, this is not a serious problem, because the considerate traveler has already prepared a speech for him in advance, and has marked the pronunciation of each Chinese character in Latin alphabet Chinese pinyin, and the spelling method is basically in line with Europe of this era.
Apart from the somewhat complicated tone of human habits, Findajeros only had to read it according to it.
Then, the groom Liu Daohai, with his hair combed into three parts and dressed in a suit and leather shoes, took the stage under the guidance of Archbishop Findajeros and swore in front of everyone: "I am willing to let Miss Xu Xiner become my wife, and we will have each other from now on." , support each other, for better or for worse, for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and cherish each other until death do us part.”
Immediately afterwards, the bride Xu Xiner, who was wearing a colorful silk flower crown and a white wedding dress, also lowered her head and smiled sweetly.
She followed her husband and swore shyly: "I am willing to let Mr.
Liu Daohai be my husband, and we will not be separated until death." ” "Under the witness of the Lord, I declare that the newlyweds in front of me are legally married.
Now, the groom can kiss the bride."
Watching the bride and groom complete their oaths, Archbishop Findajeros smiled and continued to announce to everyone.
At the same time, in the hall under the altar, there was a chaos of booing.
"Kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss, kiss" The guests in the audience, who were mainly time-travelers, started to cheer, and among them, the only daughter of Queen Xu Xiner, the little princess Jin Xuezhu, actually shouted the loudest.
Xu Xiner couldn't help but glared at her daughter in shame, but she still lay down in her husband's arms obediently, letting him lean over and kiss her red lips.
Next, after the bride hurriedly threw the bouquet, accompanied by the screams and applause of the guests, the European-style wedding at Haizhou Cathedral came to an end.
But the bride and groom couldn't rest yet.
Instead, they hurriedly changed into red wedding clothes and had to rush to the next more grand Chinese wedding.
At the same time, just as Archbishop Findajeros's speech contained, the entire Haizhou City was plunged into a festive atmosphere.
In order to create an atmosphere of celebration throughout the city and minimize the resistance to the peaceful annexation of the "Great Holy Kingdom" in Haizhou, Qi Jianjun, chairman of the Chinese League, used national public funds and military surplus materials within his authority to maximize this The marriage was grand and luxurious.
Flowing tables were set up on the more decent streets throughout the city, allowing Haizhou citizens and any outsiders who came into the city at this time to eat and drink for free.
Although they are just canteen dishes cooked in big pots, just looking at the rich oil and water inside is enough to make mainland Chinese residents who have been suffering from hunger and cold all year round salivate.
If they are lucky, they may be able to find some bread and rice cakes in oil paper bags on the table, which they can take back to bring happiness to their families.
In addition, bags of canned meat, biscuits, cigarettes and candies, as festive gifts to be distributed to guests and citizens, were piled from the wedding banquet venue to the streets outside.
The air in the streets and alleys of Haizhou was filled with With the smoke of firecrackers and the smell of food.
As for the main wedding banquet venue located in the Hua League Garrison Base, it is natural that there are fine wines, delicacies, delicacies from all over the world, as well as fresh fruits and vegetables, all of which are available.
Not to mention the ordinary dishes such as chicken, duck, and fish, even precious seafood such as abalone, lobster, and oysters are available on every table.
In addition, there are also some exquisite pastries that, although seemingly inexpensive, can only be made by "Australians" in China, such as double-skinned milk, cream puffs, tiramisu, ice cream, almond paste, and wine.
Heart chocolate, snow-skin mooncakes, caramel pudding, etc. are also served like water.
In addition, there are all kinds of soft drinks, juices, beer, wine and soju, which are all available in unlimited quantities.
In this tragic era when mainland China is generally suffering from hunger and cold, and the people are living in dire straits, the effect of these fine wines and delicacies in creating a cheerful atmosphere is naturally quite significant.
After a while, there are clinking glasses everywhere, and it is really a drunken intoxication.
Atmosphere.
Especially those Westerners who participated in the banquet, mainly servants and attendants brought by the Jesuit priest and the new Japanese Archbishop Finda Geralds from their European mother countries, actually ate and drank so much that they vomited in full view of the public.
He even got drunk and went crazy.
For this reason, Archbishop Findajeros had to bite the bullet, stand up under the eyes of contempt, severely reprimanded these embarrassing subordinates, and warned them in a very embarrassing voice not to be bothered by all kinds of novelties.
Bewitched by food and drink, you must serve God with a pure soul and sincerely.
Next, in the midst of such a drunken atmosphere, the Chinese League garrison took advantage of the situation and sent out girls from the military art troupe to perform.
They performed joyful chorus, a cappella and symphony ensembles, as well as tap dances that were denounced as "immoral" by some sour butchers. , making the atmosphere of the banquet more enthusiastic.
However, compared to the various fine wines, delicacies, singing and dancing at the banquet, the "bombshell" that can really attract the close attention of all forces in mainland China is the "Emperor Monkey King" Queen Xu Xiner's speech after the wedding.
The imperial edict of abdication was read out in front of all the guests: "I have been in power for eighteen years.
I have been in trouble from the four seas since I was a child, and I have suffered from displacement.
Fortunately, God's blessing and the help of friendly countries have allowed me to live in a corner of the seaside and survive in the war and chaos.
However, recently Looking up at the astronomical sky and looking down at the people's hearts, we can see that the momentum of our country is indeed unsustainable.

I heard that the emperor's orders are not ordinary, but are due to virtue.
In the journey of husband's great road, the world is the commonwealth, and the virtuous and capable are selected.
Therefore, Tang Yao did not take personal gain from his sons, and his reputation spread endlessly.
I am envious of him, and now he has followed Yao Dian, abdicated the throne, and surrendered the country.
He has entrusted the land of hundreds of miles in Haizhou and 70,000 people to ally with China.
It comforts the heart of those who are tired of the chaos in the sea and hopes for governance, and it is the righteousness of the ancient saints and the world of justice.
I hope that the allies of China will inherit the flames of China, save the country from the cross-currents, lift the ruins of billions of trillions, love all things as oneself, let the common people feel worried, clear away the evil atmosphere of China's troubled times, and rebuild the world of Yanhuang nobles.
If this is the case, I can also He retired to the countryside with peace of mind, and from then on he took care of his husband and raised his children, and spent his leisurely travels without having to worry about state affairs.
Immediately declare this edict to the world and implement it in due time. " At the same time, the remaining six "Great Sages" of Haizhou's "Great Sage Kingdom", as well as a group of cave masters, altar masters, village masters, etc., also subsequently presented their proposals to the current Chairman of the Chinese League, Mr.
Qi Jianjun.
The resignation notes that had been prepared in advance showed everyone's respect for the matter.
In this way, in a lively atmosphere of peace and joy, with the re-marriage of Queen Xu Xiner, the "Monkey King", the "Great Holy Kingdom" of Haizhou, which provided countless fantasy novels with monsters, monsters and monsters to later generations of literati, was officially established. stepped off the stage of history.
Regarding this, the people of Haizhou's "Great Holy Kingdom" basically expressed their calm attitude, and even liked to hear it.
However, those foreign envoys who came to congratulate were very worried about this change, as if they had seen some kind of ominous premonition that the storm was about to come, so they all thought hard about countermeasures.
"Alas, with just a marriage in front of them, they swallowed up the Great Demon Kingdom of Haizhou without any blood.
These Australian thieves have ambitions for the fertile land of the Central Plains.
It can be said that they clearly want to expose Brother Liang.
They are watching a huge catastrophe in the land of China.
Disaster is imminent, I wonder what your country thinks about this."
In a remote corner of the wedding banquet hall of Queen Xu Xin'er, Zhang Pu, the congratulatory envoy of the Qing Dynasty in the south of the Yangtze River with a money rat tail and a minister of etiquette, squinted at the tap dance performance on the stage while holding a wine glass in his hand, and looked at the tap dance performance on the stage beside him.
Liang Qiying, the envoy of Dameng Kingdom, said in a low voice.
"Yes, just seeing that the Kun thief traveled thousands of miles to mobilize so many proud soldiers to Haizhou, you know that this person must have a big plan."
Liang Qiying, the Minister of Etiquette of Dameng Kingdom who was sent by Zhang Xianzhong, the Emperor of Dameng Kingdom, to congratulate and inquire about the news, couldn't help but nodded in approval to Zhang Pu's statement.
At the same time, he looked around at the various soldiers and horses in this Chinese Alliance garrison base: wearing hats, holding hand-held hats, Korean stick team with big sticks; short stature, waist The Japanese stand-up troops with double swords; the tall European cavalrymen with blond hair and blue eyes; the black handymen with bald heads and bare feet, as black as ink; the southern barbarian scouts with short clothes and straw hats, and tattooed faces.
At first glance, it seems that they have covered everything.
A giant military museum of all races and arms in the world.
But as long as you take a closer look at their orderly and disciplined behavior, you will understand that these guys are by no means a rabble with disorderly discipline.
"However, even if the Australians intend to take over the Central Plains, the ones who will suffer should be the Manchu Tatars who serve under you."
After nodding and acknowledging Zhang Pu's opinion, Liang Qiying suddenly changed the topic and played with the crystal glass in her hand carelessly, watching the champagne liquid inside change into various blurred colors under the sunset.
At the same time, he said lightly, "As far as I know, the Australian soldiers who came ashore from Haizhou went west to capture Xuzhou this spring.
Zhouzhou, and then moved south to Jinqingjiangpu, the canal city, and easily captured all the land in Huaibei.
In addition, the 50,000 Kunthi elite soldiers originally stationed in Hangzhou, as well as the Kunthi navy entrenched in Chongming Island, had already moved from the east and west.
From the south and the north, the Qing Dynasty, whose capital is Jinling, has formed a three-sided encirclement.
Even if your country is not a candle in the wind, it is still in danger."
"Yes, if the Australian thieves come from across the sea, we, the Qing Dynasty, will indeed bear the brunt.
However, in order to preserve our saints and religions, protect the Chinese orthodoxy, and adhere to our clothes and laws, we, the Qing Dynasty, even though we know that we are difficult to defeat Kun thieves, we must unite the Eight Banners strong forces, summon the righteous soldiers from the south of the Yangtze River, fight fiercely, and fight to the bitter end.
We must fight for every inch of land to prevent these Australian thieves who have forgotten their ancestors and turned barbarians into summers to march in and destroy our country."
Zhang Pu said with an impassioned expression.
At first glance, he looked really strong and righteous, but with the money rat-tail braid on the back of his head that kept shaking, it looked a bit funny.
However, what he did next Threats are by no means forceful words or empty words.
"Besides, if our Qing Dynasty has thousands of miles of rivers and mountains to the south of Huainan, it can't resist the attack of Kun's thieves.
Then you can't wait for a mere small country on the bank of Poyang Lake.
How many more days can the country last?
Our Qing Dynasty is currently solid.
Although we are facing the front of the Kun bandits, but once the Guangdong and Guangxi Kun bandits cross the South Ridge and go north, how can you and other small cute countries escape the disaster of war?

Hey, I heard that the Australian Kun bandits' military flags have been planted on the top of Ganzhou City today.
Yo" Although Dameng envoy Liang Qiying was displeased with this threat from the Qing envoy Zhang Pu, he had to admit that what he said was indeed reasonable.
Although Zhang Xianzhong's "Da Meng Kingdom" has always claimed to be the master of Jiangxi, in fact, among the thirteen prefectures in Jiangxi Province, the "Da Meng Emperor" Zhang Xianzhong currently only rules three prefectures of Nanchang, Nankang and Raozhou .
Even Jiujiang Prefecture, the northern gateway to the provincial capital Nanchang and guarding the transportation hub at the intersection of Poyang Lake and the Yangtze River, was captured by the Qing army sent by Dorgon eight years ago and has not been able to recapture it so far.
Even though Zhang Xianzhong has always occupied the provincial capital Nanchang, it is really far-fetched to say that this "big cute country" is the master of Jiangxi.
In contrast, although he was defeated by Li Zicheng and repeatedly encountered obstacles in front of the Australian thieves, the current Qing Emperor Dorgon still controls the territory of twelve prefectures on both sides of the Yangtze River, as well as the entire world.
The most powerful army besides the Australian bandits does have the confidence and capital to regard the "Big Meng Country" as a small country.
What's even more frightening is that although the "Da Meng Kingdom" is located inland, it is not far from the Australian Kun people's front.
It cannot completely rely on the Qing Dynasty to stop the disaster: because the Kun thieves have been entrenched in the coastal provinces for many years, if they want to To continue to conquer the south, it is not only possible to advance along the Yangtze River on land and water, but also to cross the mountains and north from Guangdong and Guangxi, which they have occupied for twenty years, or to advance westward across the mountains from the Fujian and Zhejiang provinces, which have the same solid foundation.
In fact, although the four prefectures of Guangxin, Jianchang, Ganzhou, and Ji'an in southeastern Jiangxi Province are still full of cottages and have countless people claiming to be emperors in name, they have actually been infiltrated and controlled by Australian thieves.
Hengyang, Yongzhou and Binzhou, which are located next door to the Chief Secretary of Huguang, have also fallen into the hands of Australian thieves in recent years.
Once the war starts, the Qing Kingdom will certainly face enemies on three sides, and the Meng Kingdom will also be attacked from two sides by the Australian thieves.
However, although he recognized Zhang Pu's strategic judgment, he still refused to fall short verbally due to the literati's dismissive nature.
"Well, what you said is indeed reasonable.
Once the Qing Dynasty is defeated and Jiangnan is reorganized, our Meng country will also be worried about losing its lips and teeth.
It's just that the clothes, crowns, and codes of the Chinese Taoist saints and religions have changed from barbarians to Xia Rugong.
These words came out of your mouth. , I’m afraid it’s a little inappropriate.”
Dameng Envoy Liang Qiying changed the topic noncommittally and continued in a sarcastic tone.
At the same time, he narrowly looked at Zhang Pu's money rat tail braid hanging behind his head, and then looked down at the Eguan Bo belt on his body.
A self-evident sense of superiority suddenly arose in his chest.
"Hey, I recall that in the past, Tian Rugong, as a poor man, raised his arms to lead the gentlemen in Jiangnan, drove away the greedy eunuchs, and wrote five people's monuments to promote the righteousness of the world.
He also summoned famous people from all over the world on Tiger Hill in Suzhou to criticize the current ills. , how inspiring and charming it is, but never before.
Think about it, things are so different today.
I don’t know the Fushe scholars and Donglin scholars who participated in the Huqiu Conference, as well as the more than 50 members of the Zhang family in Taicang who died at the hands of the Qing Tatars.
Men, women, old and young, how must they feel when they see your current appearance, Zhang Pu and Zhang Tianru?"
Correspondingly, Zhang Pu, the envoy of the Qing Dynasty who had been full of high spirits just now, couldn't help but feel stuck for a while after being snatched away in this way.
"Well, ahem, this is just a small detail.
The money rat's tail is the elegant government of the new dynasty; the Eguan Bodai is the bad rule of the country's downfall."
He argued with some embarrassment to Dameng envoy Liang Qiying, "The fall of the world and the chaos in the world in recent years are really not the fault of the Qing Dynasty.
As for the genocide of a certain family, the culprit is the predecessor who led the army to cross the river.
Emperor Taiji of the Qing Dynasty established the system since our lord Dorgon proclaimed himself emperor.
After wiping out all the vassals and taking over Jinling, they had already dug up Huang Taiji's grave, whipped his corpse, and killed his whole family.
This was considered as revenge for his family.
In recent years, the Qing court has changed its tune, respected Confucianism, and reopened the imperial examination. , To revive culture and education, you must never treat it with vulgarity and barbarism."
In this plane, due to the sneak attack from behind by the time traveler, when Huang Taiji led the Eight Banners cavalry down to the south of the Yangtze River, all his old land in Liaodong was lost, and Hebei and Shandong were also rebelled.
With no escape route and no room for calm planning, in order to reward and bribe the direct descendants of the Eight Banners and the northern soldiers and horses who followed him all the way around, Huang Taiji had no choice but to reverse his previous policy of trying his best to recruit and appease the big Han people and attack Jiangnan.
The Jin gentry and scholars used all-out massacres, openly declaring that "the northerners should rule the southerners" and "all the people in the south of the Yangtze River should be demoted as slaves, and their land, land and houses should be taken away to reward the northerners."
As a result, under the Qing army's policy of enclosing land and capturing human beings as slaves, the various prefectures in the south of the Yangtze River soon became a bloody mess, with ghosts crying and wolves howling.
Those once arrogant scholars and Confucian officials were slaughtered by the Qing army like pigs and dogs.
The common people in various places in the south of the Yangtze River could not escape the life-threatening knife or the noose of slave capture.
If anyone did not want to be enslaved or killed, they had to either rise up and fight to the death, or leave their homes and flee.
Although Huang Taiji died shortly after capturing Jiangnan, and the Qing court that had just established a foothold in Jiangnan fell into divisions and conflicts between kings, no matter which family of Manchu soldiers and horses they were, their attitude towards the natives of Jiangnan remained the same.
It's all about massacre and slavery.
Under the crazy slaughter of the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the population of Jiangnan in the area occupied by the Qing court once fell below one million, a reduction of nine-tenths.
The once densely populated land of plenty was reduced to a dense forest of bones.

However, the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which was already a lost dog, used this simplest and crudest barbaric method to directly smash the unruly Jiangnan Jingentry Group to pieces, thus establishing a firm foothold in Jiangnan.
Later, in order to compete for the throne left by Huang Taiji, the Eight Banners of the Manchu Qing Dynasty launched a series of extremely brutal and bloody civil wars in Jiangnan.
In the end, the more skilled Dorgon succeeded in winning, and took control of Jinling twelve years ago, killing all his opponents and becoming the new emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
However, after the migration to the south of the Yangtze River, there were not many Manchurian Eight Banners left, and most of them withered in this civil strife.
The Eight Banners Tatar soldiers who really came from Liaodong had only six to seven thousand people left in Dorgon's hands.
It was impossible for them to rule Jiangnan alone.
What's more, today's China is full of heroes and war is raging.
If the Qing Empire wants to survive, it is not enough to suppress the resistance of the people in the south of the Yangtze River.
At the same time, it must also be wary of all kinds of foreign enemies.
This forced Dorgon to fully tap the potential of the Jiangnan ruling area and obtain officers and soldiers on the spot.
In order to balance the needs of domestic politics and restore the economic strength of Jiangnan, Dorgon had no choice but to once again support the Han gentry forces in Jiangnan, release some talented Jiangnan scholars from the slave camps, grant official positions through imperial examinations and recommendations, and restore The learning of sages in the south of the Yangtze River made a gesture of respecting Confucianism.
And those remaining Jin gentlemen in the south of the Yangtze River, after escaping from the Qing court's butcher's knife, immediately burst into tears of gratitude just because the new emperor Dorgon treated them a little more tolerantly, and they immediately felt that Dorgon was destined to die. , is a sage king worthy of their allegiance.
As for the previous hatred of their family being killed and their property confiscated, they were completely forgotten in the blink of an eye, just like the Stockholm Syndrome patients in later generations.
Among those suffering from Stockholm Syndrome in Jiangnan in the late Ming Dynasty, Zhang Pu and Zhang Tianru, the former leader of the society and "the best troublemaker in the Ming Empire", were a typical representative figure who led the Qing soldiers across the river in person.
After his own family was brutally massacred by the Qing army, Zhang Pu turned to join the fight against the Qing because of a moment of dissatisfaction, vowing to take revenge.
But a few years later, as the anti-Qing cause led by the Jiangnan Jin gentry gradually collapsed and failed amidst various internal conflicts and party unity and opposition, Zhang Pu's mentality changed again.
Finally, after the new emperor Dorgon entered Jinling, "rectified the chaos" and showed respect for Confucianism, Zhang Pu finally could no longer restrain his desire for fame, completely put aside the hatred of his family, and took the initiative to shave his hair and change his clothes.
Go to Jinling sought an official position, and because of his reputation as the "leader of the restoration society" in the past, he was personally hired and promoted by Dorgon.
After learning that Zhang Pu had no one in his family, he also rewarded him with six Jiangnan beauties as concubines. .
Such generous treatment, even if it is to set an example for Qian Jin Shi Ma Gu, is enough to make people shed tears of gratitude.
As a result, Zhang Pu completely "changed his mind" and from then on he turned to the Qing Dynasty with a red heart.
He preached everywhere that Dorgon was the "saint king who came to the world" and the defender of Chinese orthodoxy.
He called on the scholars of the world to surround Dorgon and The famous Confucianism of the Qing Dynasty came to fight against the fallacies and heresies of overseas thieves and restore a bright future to the land of China.
As for the Han officials in the Qing court, they still have to shave their pigtails, and except for a few scholars, the millions of people in Jiangnan, under the rule of Dorgon, the "holy king", are still slaves and slaves for generations.
The humble status of killing was under the righteousness of defending Confucianism.
Naturally, there was no need to worry about these trivial matters.
The so-called grassroots are just ants.
So what if they have been slaves for generations?
However, in the eyes of the gentry from Jiangxi's "Da Meng Kingdom" and other separatist forces in mainland China, it still makes people feel that this guy Zhang Pu is so shameless in flattering the Tatars, and even forgets the hatred of confiscating his family and exterminating his family.
It's disgusting.
Now that she has the opportunity, Liang Qiying will naturally say some damaging words.
However, even so, Liang Qiying, the envoy of the Dameng Kingdom, still had to admit that in the face of the Australian thieves who were about to attack in large numbers and had ambitions to conquer the world, the Qing Kingdom and the Dameng Kingdom were indeed interdependent, and it was necessary to form an alliance to help each other.
However, The two countries of Qing Dynasty and Da Meng have fought many battles over the years, and various conflicts have never been resolved.
It is not just a casual discussion between two envoys that can turn hostility into friendship.
In the ancient feudal dynasty era, in order to show recognition and attention to this peace covenant, the royal families of the two countries usually entered into marriages to show their sincerity.
This is a very popular routine, both in the East and the West.
Regarding this, Zhang Pu thought for a while and decided to reveal some information to Liang Qiying in advance: "I heard that the Emperor of Dameng Kingdom has an unmarried daughter named Princess Mengxiang.
She has a dignified appearance and a virtuous temperament.
She is actually the most unparalleled mother in the world.
A good match.
It happens that the crown prince of our country has not yet married, so he wants to propose marriage to Princess Mengxiang, thinking that the crown princess will become the empress of the Qing Dynasty in the future, as a sign of the goodwill of the two countries.
What do you think?”
"Well, I think this is a good move.
However, such major military and state affairs involving the diplomatic relations between the two countries cannot be decided by a mere envoy.
I have to go back to Nanchang to consult the emperor's wishes and the opinions of all the officials in the court.

Opinion."
Liang Qiying thought for a while and then replied slowly.
"Then please help me a lot.
Overseas thieves are coming soon, and both you and I don't have much time to delay."
Zhang Pu was overjoyed when he heard this and hurriedly clasped his hands into fists and bowed his head.
Liang Qiying, on the other hand, hurriedly stepped aside to avoid it, frowning and not daring to accept this great gift.
"Hey, there are some things that cannot be avoided after all.
I believe Lord Tian Rugong should understand that haste makes waste.
Besides, even if my emperor agrees to let the princess marry, these three matchmakers are in love and hope for auspicious days.
It’s not going to happen any time soon.
What’s more, the conditions under which the Qing and Da Meng will form an alliance and help each other in the future, as well as the status of each other, all need to be discussed patiently.
How can it be decided in one fell swoop?”
"Of course I understand the common sense of marriage, but the problem is that the current situation is so urgent that we really cannot wait for the time."
Zhang Pu said with a wry smile, "If we procrastinate as usual, I'm afraid the gunboats will have already entered the Yangtze River before the marriage between the two countries is completed."
However, just as Zhang Pu, a minister of etiquette who had shaved off his money rat's tail, was thinking hard and anxious about the future of the Qing Empire, he never expected that the Chinese Alliance Expeditionary Force would be the first to strike hard in this mainland strategy.
The target is not the Jiangnan Qing Dynasty to which he is loyal While the wedding banquet was singing and dancing outside, in a secret meeting room at the Chinese League Haizhou Garrison Base, Marshal Huang Shi was looking at a large pile of messy Western Region-style flags, tokens and promotional materials on the table, as well as vaguely stained The interrogation confession stained with dark red blood made people frown: "In this way, it can now be preliminarily confirmed.
In recent years, it has been traveling to various prefectures and counties in North China, killing dozens of emperors, and returning the blood-bathed Taishan to the Jihad Army.
There should really be modern time travel within or behind its organization.
The perpetrators are presiding over and inciting” "At least it can be confirmed that even if their leader nicknamed the White Prophet is not a time traveler, he should at least have been greatly influenced by one or some modern extremist ideological terrorist time travellers, because we have learned from their propaganda and On the captured flags of the Jihadist Army, many extreme religious ideological slogans that should not have appeared in the seventeenth century were actually found.”
A certain intelligence staff member saluted Marshal Huangshi, and then presented a black leather book with a machete pattern on it.
Apart from the text, there were no statues of gods in it, but there were a few rough and crude maps.
"In their doctrinal books, Here, Saudi Arabia was even drawn on the map, a geographical concept that did not exist at all in the seventeenth century.
Now it is still a hundred years before the Saud family founded the country for the first time in history."
"In addition, according to the news returned by our spies after sneaking into Beijing, the daily style, weapons and equipment and combat methods of this holy war army are indeed not what they should be like in East Asia in the seventeenth century.
The religious rituals are also different from those of this era.
There are subtle differences in the mainstream.
They are also able to use extremely rudimentary equipment and raw materials to make some high-performance explosives for self-destruction operations, the ingredients of which seem to be nitrocellulose.
In addition, they also like to force women and children to serve as suicide squads and march around Beijing.
A lot of explosive vests were made.”
Another intelligence staff member also said, "Coupled with their commonly used self-destruction tactics such as carriage bombs, donkey bombs, and roadside bombs, as well as their drastic approach of demolishing temples and destroying statues of gods wherever they go, it is obvious that there is Traces of Terrorism in the Twenty-First Century Middle East.”
"In other words, a group of terrorists from the Western Regions whose minds have been armed with extremist ideas of the 21st century are now entrenched in Beijing, right?"
Qi Jianjun, chairman of the Chinese League, stretched out his hand and rubbed his forehead in distress, "What the hell, how did such a bizarre thing happen?"
"This is normal, right?
Back when everyone was traveling to this world of the late Ming Dynasty, there were quite a few people traveling alone."
Marshal Huang Shi raised his eyebrows disapprovingly, "I myself was abandoned in Liaodong, and others were also abandoned in all over the world.
It can be seen from this that if there were a few people in southern Xinjiang or Ningxia, A terrorist who had been brainwashed by extremist ideas traveled through time.
Then, decades later, those terrorists or their descendants developed a religious extremist force in the local area.
However, because of its remote location, little was known to the outside world until this group of people fled here for various reasons.
North China has attracted our attention, which is also normal."
"Of course I understand this, Marshal Huang.
It's just that it's really weird.
We have already traveled to the seventeenth century, and we are still fighting the war on terrorism.
This feeling is really, really awkward."
Qi Jianjun sighed, "According to the discussion results of the central government, no matter what, we must send troops to retake Beijing as soon as possible.
We cannot let these religious extremists who are keen on destroying historical monuments completely destroy everything there.

Marshal, for this battle, you Are you sure?"
"Don't worry, there is no problem these days.
There is neither interference from international public opinion nor hindrance from human rights organizations.
Mere terrorists are nothing.
Just kill all the men inside and that's it.
In this cruel world, there is nothing better than them."
There are many more terrifying guys.”
Marshal Huangshi curled his lips and said disapprovingly, "Looking at their dejected posture, it's obvious that they don't look like they have time and space gates."
Although modern people always have a different look when they talk about terrorists and terrorist attacks, as if they are some kind of scourge or the devil of hell.
But to be honest, the behavior of the Middle Eastern terrorists in the modern world would only appear scary in a peaceful society in the early 21st century.
But in the nightmarish seventeenth century, this level of horror and bloodshed was far from enough.
Scalping, poaching, drinking human blood, shelling, massacres, and ethnic cleansing are all common in this era.
Western colonists do this all over the world.
Even in mainland Europe, the security in cities and countryside has always been chaotic, and various religious vendettas and wars are staged on the streets almost all day long.
Countless "robber barons" roamed the countryside committing crimes.
These Crescent terrorists just hung bombs on their waists and blew themselves up, killing a few random passers-by.
Who are the Roman Jesuit priests who dug tunnels under the Houses of Parliament in London to plant gunpowder to blow up the King?
As for China, the style and fanaticism of the Wen Xiang Sect and the White Lotus Sect are actually no different from terrorists.
The reason why they don't engage in human explosive bombs is not because they can't find fanatic believers who are willing to commit suicide, but because their military technology is not up to par and they can't make so many explosive vests.
In fact, the reason why this "Jihadi Army" under the Crescent Flag was able to easily break through the Great Wall and Taihang Mountains and roam freely throughout North China is because this land has been too damaged by years of war and famine.
After the collapse of the "Great Jin Kingdom" and the "Mahayana Kingdom" one after another, they were divided by nearly a hundred emperors, large and small, and their power was too scattered.
No matter which emperor they were, they were unable to encircle and suppress this group of bandits.
Therefore, in the face of the attack of the "Jihadi Army", the attitude of the local rulers was basically to "see off" rather than to fight, thus giving these rogue bandits some room to survive.
But even so, because they could not get the support of the local people, the "Jihadi Army" failed to gain a firm foothold on the North China Plain.
They just wandered and looted in this war-torn land, hungry and full, and their troops and manpower were reduced.
The more I fight, the less.
It wasn't until I was lucky enough to hit Mount Tai that I made a fortune.
Marshal Huangshi failed to annihilate them in Mount Tai last year, not because this "Jihadi Army" flying the crescent flag was so tough and good at fighting, but because they fled as soon as they heard the news.
The Chinese Alliance Army commanded by Marshal Huangshi There was only time to intercept one tail.
As for the subsequent street battles in Beijing in the past few years before Beijing was captured, most of the city was in ruins, and the inner and outer city walls collapsed, leaving gaps everywhere.
Until the "Jihadi Army" came to kill, the two groups of bandit soldiers entrenched in the city were fiercely fighting.
In this case, it is impossible to hold on.
Nowadays, although this "holy war army" flying the crescent flag has entered the city of Beijing by chance, the "prophet" who claims to be a descendant of the Holy Prophet has only a few thousand combatable soldiers left according to reconnaissance, and even They only had a few muskets and were nothing more than chickens and dogs in front of the Chinese Alliance army.
In Huang Shi's view, if the changes in the so-called "Jihadi Army" will really have any adverse impact on the China Alliance's mainland China strategy, at most it will be because the target of the first attack has been changed, thus containing the traversers.
A considerable part of the military strength has made the originally formulated The Yangtze River strategy operation plan had to be postponed until next year.
"Since the central government considers this anti-terrorism operation to be more important, our army can only attack Beijing first this autumn.
In this way, the ridiculous Jiangnan Braid Empire, please live for a few more months.”
Marshal Huang Shi said calmly, while using a red pencil to draw a big cross on the map of Beijing.
At this point, with the marriage of Queen Xu Xin'er, the "Monkey King" of the Great Holy Kingdom and Great Demon Kingdom of Haizhou, a war raging across China is already gaining momentum.
And the history of China in this plane is about to emerge from the darkest tragic years and open a new and more magnificent page.
However, for Queen Xu Xiner, who is enjoying her honeymoon on the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, all this has nothing to do with her. oshow7:
