When Qu Shiyun and others rushed to Guangzhou one after another, Zhao Ming was not in the city of Guangzhou, but in Macau.Macao used to be a small fishing village, and its original name was Haojing, because at that time Bokou could be called "Macao", so it was called "Macau".After the great voyages of the Western world began, the Portuguese arrived in Macau and reached an agreement with the local government of Guangdong to obtain the right of residence in Macau.However, at this time, Macao could still be regarded as a colony, because there was a Guangdong government, and a yamen was set up here to administer Macao.At first, the Portuguese not only had to pay taxes every year, but also had to obey the government management, but with the passage of time, the Portuguese sat in Macao, and gradually formed a gathering area dominated by the Portuguese, squeezing the Han out of this area, forming a situation in which the Portuguese monopolized Macao.Seeing this, in order not to cause trouble, the local government no longer managed the affairs of the Portuguese, and when the Portuguese and the Han conflicted, they also favored the Portuguese, resulting in Macao, and the Portuguese gradually had a higher status and privileges than the ordinary Han people.This time, Zhao Ming came to Macao mainly to investigate whether the Portuguese in Macao still have the necessity to exist.Since the opening of the Han Dynasty, it has had contacts with the Dutch, Spanish, and British, and the exchanges have been complicated, but there is not much communication with the Portuguese.Nowadays, there are Xiyi exchanges in various treaty ports, so is it necessary to use Macao as a window for exchanges, and is it necessary to take back the Portuguese residency in Macao?
Outside the Portuguese Governor's Palace in Macau, as well as on the streets, there were Han soldiers standing with guns.When the Han army approached Macao, the Portuguese, after only a very brief and heated discussion, withdrew their defenses and allowed the Han army's army to enter Macau.Helplessly, the Han army was too powerful, and the Portuguese could not stop it at all, so they could only know the current affairs as Junjie.Moreover, now that they are legally staying in Macao, if they fight against the Han army, then the Han king will have an excuse to expel them from Macao.At this time, Zhao Ming was walking on the streets of Macao, followed by the prefect of Guangzhou and the governor of Macau of Portugal, Yi Susha, both of whom were cautiously accompanying Zhao Ming.Since the Jiaming Jiajing period, the Portuguese have been in Macao for 100 years.What started as a fishing village has now grown into a town, with exotic streets and buildings made of stone.Zhao Ming looked at the buildings on both sides, as well as the Catholic churches, all of which were in European style, and couldn't help frowning slightly.The Governor of Macau on the side, Yi Susha, always paid attention to the face of the Prince of Daming.Yi Susa has received news that His Royal Highness the King of Han has come to Macao to consider whether to reclaim the right of residence.The Han kingdom was so strong that even the Dutch and Spaniards were defeated, and with the strength of the Portuguese, they could not compete with the Han king at all.If the Han King decided to take back Macau, then the Portuguese would have to give up the century-old Macau and leave the Ming Dynasty.Therefore, Izusa could only try his best to please the Han king, so that the Han king would be satisfied, and hoped that the Han king would let the Portuguese continue to stay in Macao."
The Celestial Empire, Xu Er and others live here, they should adapt to the system of my Celestial Empire as soon as possible and integrate into the Celestial Empire!"
Zhao Ming said in a deep voice: "In the future, the construction of houses and buildings will require the approval of the government, and they must not be armed, so the Han people should be free to enter the Portuguese gathering area in Macao!"
”Zhao Ming did not object, Siyi entered China, but after coming in, they did not integrate into China, they still engaged in their own set and closed their own circles, but continued to send their things to China, that is, cultural and religious invasion.This is absolutely not allowed, and it is okay in peacetime, but once there is civil strife in China, these ethnic groups that are rooted in China and have completely different cultures, habits, and beliefs will become the source of unrest.The five chaotic Chinese and the civil unrest in the northwest are examples.Let's just say that this Macau, later took advantage of the corruption and incompetence of the Qing government, and was also turned into a colony by Portugal.Zhao Ming thought that China's opening up was a must to be developed, and that China had been relatively strong for generations.Zhao Ming did not exclude Siyi and entering China, after all, cultural exchanges and trade are needed, but to stay in China, he must be the kind of person who admires Chinese culture and truly integrates into it, and at the same time, he cannot make more treatment than the Han people.Now the Portuguese in Macau, this is the case, after a hundred years, due to the inaction of the government, they have privileges in Macau, and the treatment can be said to be higher than that of the people of the Ming Dynasty, and they naturally cannot be integrated.The Portuguese governor Isusa couldn't help sweating on his forehead, and Zhao Ming continued to instruct: "The Portuguese who come to Macao must be registered in the government, they are craftsmen, missionaries, sailors, and exiled prisoners.And screen, not just anyone, can get residency. ”Zhao Ming walked around Macao, inspected the Portuguese docks, gun factories, and shops, and originally planned to take back Macao, and in the future, the Portuguese, like other Xiyi, will go to various ports to trade, and enter the mainland needs to be approved, and must not stay for a long time, unless it is a talent that the government thinks is useful, can obtain the right of residence.However, after Zhao Ming visited the Jesuit university in Macau and saw many books and different subjects, he changed his mind and stayed in Macau for the time being.Chinese culture focuses on the way of adulthood and the cultivation of personality, while the West attaches importance to the laws of external things.At the moment, Zhao Ming also needs the Portuguese to open it, and another wave of Western learning is gradually moving eastward to promote exchanges and make up for shortcomings.After looking around Macao, Zhao Ming ordered Cao to judge Dai Zhijun and formulate a system and regulations for the management of Macao, and then returned to Guangzhou.As soon as Zhao Ming entered Guangzhou, an official came to report, saying that Gu Yuanjing had led several people who had surrendered to the city and had been in the city for many days, waiting to be met at the post house.When Zhao Ming heard this, he washed up a little and met everyone in the main hall of the palace.At this time, Zhao Ming came out from behind the screen, and Gu Yuanjing whispered: "Your Highness has arrived." ”When Qu Shiyun and the others heard this, they all stood up and bowed down to greet each other.Zhao Mingjing sat down until the main seat, and then said, "Sit." ”Everyone sat down in turn, unfamiliar at first, some of them were different, they all bowed their heads, and no one spoke.Zhao Ming glanced over and asked, "Where is Qu Fujun?"
”Qu Shiyun stood up and bowed, "Qu Shiyun, the lowly governor of Guangxi, see His Royal Highness the King of Han!"
I am willing to work with His Royal Highness to assist King Gui and calm the world!
”Zhao Ming frowned slightly, but still smiled: "With the help of Qu Fujun, Gu will definitely be able to prosper the Ming Dynasty."
Qu Fujun was familiar with Guangxi, so he was still the governor of Guangxi, exterminating Zhu Yuyi and resisting the western thieves!
”Qu Shiyun made a salute, which was regarded as receiving the order.Zhao Ming immediately smiled at everyone again: "Everyone, report to your home one by one!"
”When the words landed, one person stood up and saluted with fists, "The lowly Zhao Yinxuan, who was originally a Yunnan general, supported Gannan and also fought Tartars in Huguang!"
Now I have come to vote for His Royal Highness, and I have no two hearts.I wish to serve in front of the army and make meritorious contributions. ”"Good!"
Zhao Ming sighed in admiration and asked again: "What else?"
”Another general got up to report his fist, and said loudly: "Hu Yiqing, who is a lowly officer, is also a Yunnan general, and together with Zhao Yinxuan, he fought a bloody battle with the Qing soldiers in southern Jiangnan!"
”Next, the Tusi and generals who came reported to their homes one by one and saluted Zhao Ming, and Zhao Ming made arrangements one by one.In the end, there was only one last person left in the lobby, and Zhao Ming smiled: "This is Ding Duxian!"
”Ding Kuichu hurriedly walked to the hall, knelt down directly without spine, kowtowed, and said, "It's the minister!"
The minister is willing to serve His Highness. ”Zhao Ming waved his hand, "Ding Duxian is not in a hurry, I will arrange it for you later!"
