Chapter 276 Overseas Countries: We also want to be ruled by the Ming Dynasty! Britain proposes a one dynasty, two systems law? Overseas, UK. In the Palace of Westminster. Prime Minister Richard Sutherland convened parliament. The reason was naturally that the Ming Dynasty had directly annexed the surrounding small countries and expanded its territory, and the news had now reached Britain. At the top of the parliament, King James I, dressed in gorgeous clothes and wearing a crown, lies comfortably on a soft chair, holding a photo stone in his hand and constantly swiping his thumb. Well, although there is no spiritual network in the UK yet, there is also a photo-taking tower, which can be connected to the large towers along the coast of the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, although ordinary people cannot use the photo stone, the six major families led by the Sutherland family and King James can still use it. Therefore, there has been no interruption in the news of major events occurring in the Ming Dynasty over the past month, and all the news was only confirmed today. However, for many parliamentary families headed by the Sutherland family, they were not at peace at all. The reason is simple! Because they also want to be incorporated into the Ming Dynasty and become part of it.
After all, on some tiny islands, the pirates who claimed to be kings or some indigenous families could all be recruited and become officials of the Ming Dynasty, enjoying a salary. It can be said that from now on these people have the potential to become high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty one day in the future. The thought that some of the tiny countries that they used to look down upon might also ride on their heads is more painful than killing them. It is obvious that they have made the greatest contribution to the Ming Dynasty and have the greatest potential. Why is it that in the end these tiny countries can become part of the Ming Dynasty effortlessly just by giving up their own countries and lands? This is not fair. If these tiny countries can do it, can they be good too? At this time, the entire House of Lords was in chaos. Members of the six major families, except the Prime Minister's family and the Sutherland family, were all engaged in fierce discussions. They naturally already knew that the great emperor of the Ming Dynasty had announced the launch of the Xianming Universe Plan. The future Ming Dynasty will step out of this world, into the sea of stars, colonize everywhere, and exploit resources! At that time, being an official of the Ming Dynasty or a member of a local family of the Ming Dynasty would certainly benefit from it. What about those overseas countries? In name, they had already submitted to the Ming Dynasty, but after all, they were not officials or families under the Ming Dynasty. Will they still get those benefits? If other people don’t get their turn either, that would be fine, but why did the countries surrounding the Ming Dynasty get it? For example, tiny places like Lusong and Ryukyu, places and local families that they had never even looked at in the past, suddenly became families recognized by the Ming Dynasty, and some people even got official positions? "This is not fair!" The head of the Earl of Leicester's family, Earl Edward Leicester, shouted: "We have fought for the Ming Dynasty and done our best, but in the end, we, Britain, are not allowed to annex other countries. The Ming Dynasty has gone too far!" "That's right," At this time, the head of the Norfolk family, Henry Duke of Norfolk, also looked at the Prime Minister, Richard Sutherland, and said: "As Prime Minister, Mr. Richard, shouldn't you give us an explanation?" Although the Sutherland family is now the first family in Britain, there are many powerful people in the family. For example, the strongest member of the clan, William Henry Sutherland, has reached the late stage of Qi training. However, since the six major families are backed by high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty, no one is afraid of anyone else. To the patriarch of the Sutherland family and the British Prime Minister, these families were not polite when they should be. Moreover, this matter was indeed the fault of the Sassley family, which is the first family and the prime minister's family! It is only natural that he is questioned by the parliament now! It was precisely because he knew this clearly that Prime Minister Richard Sutherland did not get angry even though he was dissatisfied when facing the questioning of the crowd.
As the two families asked questions, other families, including the previous church, also expressed dissatisfaction. Well, it’s awkward for the church to exist right now. First of all, above God, there is an Emperor Wanshou, who is the lord of all gods, so God is also his servant, but people are still accustomed to believing in God, the Holy Father. After all, Emperor Wanshou was too far away from them, and there were no quotations or Bible-like things passed down, so it was impossible to spread his knowledge. Therefore, the church can only tell the people that they only need to pray and praise the Emperor. At other times, they can pray to God, and the Emperor will handle what God cannot handle. But only they themselves know the truth. The reason why Wanshou Emperor, that is, the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, was made the Lord of All Gods was entirely to cater to Ming Dynasty. Therefore, they had to find a way to obtain official approval from the Ming Dynasty as soon as possible, allowing them to preach in the Ming Dynasty, and then compile a collection of the emperor's words. Only in this way can the church thoroughly establish the fact that Emperor Wanshou is the Lord of all gods. The church will continue to spread it in this way! In the past, the church was not in a hurry. After all, they had conveyed these ideas to the Ming Dynasty many times through the stationed Jinyiwei, but had never received a reply from the Ministry of Rites. But this time, the countries surrounding the Ming Dynasty were suddenly annexed, and the officials of those countries had been recruited by the Ming Dynasty, and all of them, big and small, were given official positions. Such a simple method to integrate into the Ming Dynasty was actually found by these tiny countries. Naturally, they couldn't bear it any longer for a while. The purpose of convening Parliament today is to force the Ming Dynasty to incorporate Britain into its territory! Otherwise, as the prime minister, you will be impeached. They will jointly write a letter to the Ming Cabinet. Even if the Sutherland family does nothing, the people behind their respective families are all high-ranking cabinet officials. Don’t think that there is no one behind them. There must be an explanation for what happened today! "Shut up, everyone!" Richard frowned as he looked at the aggressive House of Representatives families. As he listened to these people talking more and more outrageously, he finally got angry. As the words fell, a powerful aura of a late stage Qi training emanated from him. Faint spiritual energy began to rotate with him as the center, forming a white cyclone visible to the naked eye. At this moment, the papers on the table were also swept up and flew high up to the roof. Everyone was shocked by Richard's aura, which seemed like the center of a storm, and they all subconsciously shut their mouths. "Late stage of Qi training!" "This aura should not only be from his cultivation, he should have practiced some special skills!" "Did the Sutherland family actually obtain the technique?" Soon everyone came to their senses and started discussing in low voices again, but this time, they were no longer questioning Richard, but focused on his cultivation. Although these families put their own interests first, the purpose of gathering interests is still for cultivation. Now that they saw that Richard’s cultivation had reached the late stage of Qi training, how could they not be shocked.
"I called you all here today to discuss this matter." After seeing everyone calm down and looking at him, Richard spoke up. "Since the Ming Dynasty has not asked us to join its territory, there must be a reason for that." "I wonder if you have carefully studied the surrounding small countries annexed by the Ming Dynasty," Richard said, looking around at everyone. Seeing that everyone had doubts in their eyes and some of them looked solemn, he simply said: "Reiki factories are the foundation for the development of the Reiki Industrial Era. Now all Reiki factories are located in overseas countries." "For example, the small countries surrounding the Ming Dynasty provide too little spiritual energy industrial products to the Ming Dynasty every year, almost to the point of being negligible." "Not only that, these small countries are also secretly planning to develop their own immortal cultivation dynasties." "Ha!" Richard sneered, "This has touched the bottom line of the Ming Dynasty! In this case, their fate is predictable, and the country will be destroyed!" "But everything has its pros and cons. We know that although it may seem like their country has been destroyed, for these tiny countries, isn't this a blessing in disguise?" "Follow Daming, the future will only be better!" "But we are different," Richard sighed and said: "The spiritual energy industrial products that we, the former world-class hegemonic dynasties, can provide to Ming Dynasty every year are too huge. Now is the era of global trade!" "The spiritual energy industrial products provided by spiritual energy factories in various countries around the world have long been indistinguishable from each other." "For example, the parts needed for a fairy ship are made from products from several countries." "Even the zippers and buttons on a small piece of clothing may be the product of the joint efforts of various countries. Do you think that Ming will easily give up the spiritual energy factory?" After Richard finished speaking, the entire parliament hall fell into silence. They naturally understood what Richard meant. Because overseas countries, including Britain, are helpful to Ming Dynasty in developing the spiritual industrial era. Even they themselves cannot do without the spiritual energy factory. Therefore, the Reiki Factory cannot be closed under any circumstances. However, the spiritual stones consumed by the spiritual energy factory every year and the spiritual energy pollution generated are unacceptable to the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the best places to build factories are in these countries because they are already accustomed to it. If these countries were incorporated into the Ming Dynasty, officials of all levels in the Ming Dynasty would have to consider the dangers of the spiritual stones. Well, even if the officials in this land are still their own people in the future, how will their political achievements be calculated? You have to know that the Ming Dynasty regarded spiritual stones as poisons. If this thing appeared under the jurisdiction of officials, not only would these officials have their political achievements deducted, they might also be held accountable. If they became officials of the Ming Dynasty, they would be incorporated into the Ming Dynasty and beheaded on the same day! However, they cannot leave the Ming Dynasty... Well, to put it bluntly, this is an unsolvable knot. For a moment, the entire parliament hall became a little depressed. After Richard's explanation, they suddenly realized the difference between themselves and the small countries around the Ming Dynasty. Those tiny countries were too useless and did not recognize their own strength, which annoyed the Ming Dynasty, so the Ming Dynasty simply destroyed them. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise! But those who actually do things and make great contributions to the Ming Dynasty cannot be recruited because they are too useful? What is this thing called?
This is so frustrating! "Ahem," Richard coughed lightly, turned his head to look at James, who was sitting on the throne behind him and was only busy brushing the photo stone and didn't care about anything else. Then he looked at everyone and said, "Don't be depressed!" “I convened the parliament today not to appease everyone or to argue with you.” "Because I also think it's too unfair!" Richard's words made everyone's eyes light up, and they realized that the prime minister was on the same side as them. But after thinking about it, everyone came to their senses and realized that Richard also wanted to become a part of the Ming Dynasty. Moreover, the Sutherland family is the actual controller of Britain. If they were incorporated into the Ming Dynasty, they would at least be a family of a governor, and a high-ranking official in the Ming Dynasty! Officials of this level are able to participate in the mysterious plateau political affairs and are truly high-ranking officials of the Ming Dynasty. So from the perspective of interests, the Sutherland family is the one that most wants Britain to be incorporated into the Ming Dynasty! Um, British Colonial Office? Nice name, isn't it? "Why? The people who do the most work suffer the most?" Richard naturally didn't know what everyone was thinking, and continued: "So today we are here to discuss how to make Britain join the Ming Dynasty." "We also want Britain to become a provincial governor of the Ming Dynasty. Our loyalty is evident to all!" "Da Ming, you shouldn't give up on us!" As soon as these words were spoken, all the nobles in the House of Lords became excited. "Isn't it possible to have two sets of standards for one region?" At this time, John Blackwell, the patriarch of the Blackwell family, suddenly spoke up. John Blackwell is a fifty-year-old man with a curly mustache and a big belly. The Blackwell family is a pure merchant family and originally belonged to the family representatives of the House of Commons. However, because it was previously an alliance with the Sutherland family, it also became one of the six major families in the parliament. As Old John spoke, everyone's eyes turned to him. Old John was not afraid of the stage. He simply stood up, first tidied up his noble decorations, then looked around and said: "I mean, one dynasty, two systems!" Two systems under one roof? Everyone looked curious, but they just listened quietly without saying anything. "For example, spirit stones are legal cultivation materials in Great Britain?" "In addition, there are many legal conveniences. We in the UK can retain some of them while continuing to use the laws of the Ming Dynasty. Isn't this reasonable?" "The problem of spirit stones has been solved!" After these words were spoken, there was silence in the council hall at first, and then there was a buzz of discussion again. Even Richard was thinking about the feasibility of the so-called "one dynasty, two systems" proposed by old John. "I think what Old John said is correct!" At this time, the patriarch of the Suffolk Marquisate, Richard Suffolk, took the lead in expressing his opinion. "Anyway, our goal is to have Britain incorporated into the Ming Dynasty and become part of the Ming Dynasty's territory!" "What we want is recognition. As long as the Ming Dynasty treats those useless places and useless families equally with us, we will be satisfied!" "In the future, when the Ming Dynasty steps into the vast sea of stars, we can also be pioneers and even move our factories over there." "After all the spiritual energy factories are moved, the land of Britain will be populated by normal monks and families." "I think Daming has no reason to refuse." As the old noble families expressed their views, others followed suit, including several other major parliamentary families.
Looking at the messy House of Lords Hall, Richard raised his hand to calm down. After everyone quieted down and looked at him, he took a deep breath and said: "This suggestion from John is really good!" "In this way, nothing has changed, but for the Ming Dynasty, the land area has expanded several times. Isn't this a form of expanding territory?" "But in order to greatly increase the success rate of this matter, I plan to make some slight modifications to Old John's suggestion!" Richard said with a mysterious smile on his face. Here it comes, Sutherland’s smile! Seeing this scene, all the families familiar with the Sutherland family felt nervous. Every country has its own legendary stories, and the Sutherland family is one such family. A legendary family that previously spanned both the business and political worlds. Everyone also speaks highly of Richard, the current patriarch of the family. It is said that every decision he makes is extremely wise, and this is indeed the case! His most wise decision was to spare no effort to support his younger brother Edward's development in the Ming Dynasty! Finally, the family had a chance to turn things around. Many families had no objection to letting Richard Sutherland be Prime Minister to lead them all. When they heard Richard say that there was a way to increase the chances of getting the Ming Dynasty to agree, they were naturally looking forward to it. "We can contact France, the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal and other countries around the world, and ask them to join us in submitting to the Ming Dynasty and proposing the "One Dynasty, Two Systems" approach!" "In this way, the Ming Dynasty will accomplish the feat of unifying the world. I think such an integration would be irresistible to any emperor, right?" "For those powerful officials in the cabinet, if they can expand the territory of Ming Dynasty, what kind of political achievement would that be?" Unify the world?! Hearing Richard's words, everyone in the House of Lords trembled involuntarily. Even King James I, who was sitting on the throne and was busy playing with the photo stone, subconsciously looked up. Together with the whole world, it's a pity that it has nothing to do with him. Afterwards, Britain was incorporated into the Ming Dynasty, and the governor would definitely be from the Sutherland family. As an old king, he only hoped that the Ming Dynasty would treat him well. Well, the kings of those small countries have treated me well, so I guess a wise man like me who knows how to deal with things will also be treated well, right? Maybe I can even develop a family. For a time, King James I of England also began to look forward to the Ming Dynasty annexing Britain as soon as possible. He is really fed up with this boring life of being treated as a mascot! Afterwards, without a doubt, everyone voted unanimously in favor of Richard's words. They all understood that if Britain was annexed by the Ming Dynasty and incorporated into its territory, they would follow suit. Instead of this, let’s do it together. If they all ask the Ming Dynasty to annex their countries, they can increase their bargaining chips. Richard then contacted the Netherlands, France, Spain and other countries on the spot, and the families now in power. A huge spiritual network online multinational conference was held. Late at night, all overseas countries agreed to Richard's proposal and wrote to the Ming Dynasty, requesting to be incorporated into the Ming Dynasty! Soon the news from the parliament was conveyed to the Jinyiwei pacification envoy of the "British Pacification Office". After the Lingshi trade was opened, the Jinyiwei set up additional pacification offices in various countries in addition to the North and South pacification offices.
For example, the British Pacification Office, the Dutch Pacification Office, the French Pacification Office, etc. When the British pacification envoy saw the message from Richard Sutherland, the first leader of Britain, on the photo stone, he was completely stunned. This is the first time I see a leader of a country actually asking others to annex his country and territory. Not only that, but other countries must also be brought along. However, the British pacification envoy did not delay. After confirming with Richard, he directly submitted the news to the commander of the Jinyiwei in the Ming Dynasty. Afterwards, when everyone in the cabinet received the news, they were a little confused, and then they immediately convened a meeting in Wenhua Hall. A ray of morning light emerges from the sky. At this time, officials from the Cabinet, six ministries, the Inspectorate and other departments were all present in the Wenhua Hall. "I'm sure you've all received the contents of the joint petition from overseas countries?" Prince Yu drank a sip of spiritual tea and said, "Tell me what you think of the two systems in one dynasty?" "This English guy is quite interesting..." At this time, Yu Dayou touched the stubble on his chin and said with a smile: "In order to rush to merge with our Ming Dynasty, they also proposed this, um, one dynasty, two systems, how thoughtful!" Hearing this, the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, Zhao Qiansun, spoke with a smile. "They saw that the rulers of the surrounding small countries became governors and their families were recognized by the Ming Dynasty, so they also wanted to give themselves a status." "After the Ming Dynasty steps into the sea of stars and builds factories outside the region, their territory will become nothing compared to the starry world." "If you don't take advantage of this last chance to become a part of the Ming Dynasty, when you are no longer valuable, you may not get any benefit from it." "If you want to sell out your country, you should sell it when it is most valuable. That way you can get a good price, right?" Upon hearing this, the others nodded in agreement. "So do we accept it or not?" At this time, an official expressed his position, saying, "The two systems law is still acceptable. Everything else remains the same." "My Ming Dynasty can take this opportunity to unify the world." "When we enter the Star World in the future, we will move those factories there and send those Spirit Stone practitioners there as well. Then, places like Britain will be clean." "It's also very convenient and worry-free to manage..." "This matter still needs to be reported to the Emperor." An official said, looking at everyone in the cabinet. He saw that everyone's eyes were on him. Yan Song coughed lightly, exchanged glances with Xu Jie, and then spoke up, saying, "This may be feasible, but the emperor must be informed..." However, what Yan Song didn't know was that Jiajing already knew the entire content of their conversation. Unify the world? Since the overseas countries have proposed such a considerate method that will not affect the development of the spiritual energy industrial era, they will naturally agree! In this way, he is the Heavenly Dao of the Earth! As for spiritual energy pollution, with him around, clearing the pollution caused by spirit stones in the future is just a matter of thought, and there is no need to think too much about it. Now, he has broken through to the Nascent Soul stage and become the Great Ming Dao, and will next become the Earth Dao.
The development of the Ming Dynasty must naturally continue to accelerate! "..." (End of this chapter)
