Chapter 456 Longevity Celebration
I heard that Mongolia could be granted a separate seal, so there was no possibility of letting Manchus be used as a gun. Urgon couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He was not worried about being used and could develop freely. Even if America was full of dangers, it was worth a try. Besides, didn't Manchus also grant a seal in America?
Dundobdorji was also very excited when he heard this. Soon he calmed down and asked, "Fourth brother, how many people can be transported to America at a time?"
"We transported a total of 40,000 people during this expedition to the Americas." Yinzhen smiled and said, "However, because the voyage is too long, it takes half a year to sail, and horses, cattle and sheep cannot be transported in large quantities. This problem will take three or five years to solve."
When he heard that he could not transport large quantities of war horses, Urgon and the others were a little discouraged. Without horses, they had no advantage. Yinzhen glanced at the two of them and smiled and said, "It's not impossible to look at the map." As he said, he pointed to the Kunyu Wanguo Map that specially added Australia and moved Australia a little, and said, "There are islands all the way to Australia, and there is no problem with transporting horses, cattle and sheep in large quantities. Australia is much closer to South America. We are currently preparing to explore this route.
Australia has a suitable climate, no cold winter, and large pastures, which is the most ideal transit station to go to the Americas. I plan to immigrate some Mongolian tribes and livestock to Australia, vigorously develop animal husbandry as a springboard for traveling to the Americas.
Of course, we will also actively explore the new route from the Qing Dynasty to North America. Once we find a suitable transit station, we can also transfer directly on a large scale. Both continents are extremely wide, and our plan is to enfeoff at the same time.
Furthermore, even if it is not possible to transport livestock on a large scale at present, there is no problem with a small amount. The Americas are vast and sparsely populated, and the climate is suitable, so they reproduce very quickly. It takes time for each tribe to reproduce. The development of the American capitulation requires time and process. This is impossible to be impatient."
After hearing what Yinzhen said, Urgon and the others couldn't help but feel excited again. After pondering for a moment, Urgon said: "What is the meaning of the fourteenth brother? Is it necessary to immigrate to Australia on a large scale?"
Yinzhen nodded and said, "Australia should be moved, and America should be moved at the same time, but it is only the size."
If we can transport a large number of horses, America is the world of the Mongols. Dundobdorji immediately stated: "Whether it is the American feudalism or Australian immigration, our four Khalkha Mongolian tribes have strongly supported it. However, the cost of such a large-scale migration is not a small amount, and we can't afford it."
"No matter whether the Manchus, Han and Mongolian return to Tibet, the court treats all the fees and rations for overseas immigrants equally. All of them will be paid by the court." Yinzhen glanced at the two of them and said with a solemn expression: "These two rich places in America are newly discovered by sailing in recent years. Such a vast territory cannot be swallowed up and taken care of. This benefit cannot be given to outsiders. Manchus and Mongolians are kind, so they will naturally give priority to Mongolian tribes, southern desert, northern desert, and western deserts. All Mongolian tribes can apply to immigrate to America and Australia."
When he heard that all Mongolian tribes had their share, Urgon couldn't help but feel nervous. This time, he could only transport 40,000 people, and it was impossible that they were all Mongolians. There were too many monks and too little porridge. As soon as the news spread, the Mongolian tribes were afraid that they would fight to the point of blood. Dundobdoorgi hurriedly said, "Fourth brother, your fourth sister has been closest to you since childhood. I have mentioned you a lot in front of me on weekdays. You have to give priority to our Khalkha Mongolian tribes."
Please, when my fourth sister got married, I was only eight or nine years old and I was locked in the study room all day long. Where did I start with the word "closeness"? Yinzhen couldn't help but laugh.
When you go to America first, you will naturally take advantage of it. This is not a trivial matter. When you see Dundobdoj playing the family affection card, Urgon was not willing to fall behind and hurriedly said, "Fourth brother, when the prince was deposed, your third sister served the Emperor Ama with all her heart. She has spoken well for you in front of the Emperor Ama. Whether it is Australia or America, our Bahrain tribe has strongly supported it, so you can take care of it."
Seeing this situation, Yinsi, Yinzhen, Yinyi, Yinxiang, Yinlu couldn't help but laugh. He was worried that the Mongolian tribes would not want to immigrate overseas, but now they are scrambling to go. Yinsi smiled and said, "After talking for a while, I must be hungry, let's start the meal."
Because Kangxi would go back to the palace along the Imperial Street tomorrow, and he would accept gentry and people to congratulate the Holy Birth of the Holy Birth. Everyone dared not increase their responsibilities. Although Urgon and the others were excited, they would stop it. They had to stay in the capital for a while, but the news had to be quickly sent back to the tribe and prepare early. And it is certain that after the banquet, the Mongolian princes and princes would definitely hold a banquet to ask about the situation.
After the banquet ended, Yinzhen and others sent Urgon away with great fanfare. Looking at the two of them moving away from sedan chairs, Yinxiang said with concern: "Fourth brother, America has a suitable climate, a rich pasture, and a rich mineral deposit. The court does not restrict the Mongolians. Once they set foot in America, no one will be able to curb them for decades. Is the Fourteenth brother not worried about their jeopardy of the American state?"
Yinsi and Yinzhen were also very concerned about this issue, and they couldn't help but look at it when they heard this.
After glanced at a few people, Yinzhen smiled slightly and asked back: "Brother Thirteen, you have enough knowledge of the navy. Not to mention artillery, just musketeers. When facing Mongolian cavalry, who has a greater chance of winning against one thousand?"
After a little startled, Yinxiang said: "If it is formed, there is no problem. However, the mobility of the Mongolian cavalry is too strong and it is hard to defend."
"Of course we need to guide them to point their finger at the Europeans first." Yinzhen nodded and said, "Firearms will continue to develop, and they will finally ask for what we have in our hands, so that the Mongols will be glorious in the end."

On March 17th, the entire capital was decorated with lights, with colorful pavilions on Jinfang, colorful pavilions everywhere, colorful galleries and galleries everywhere, with silver flowers all over the eyes, and a prosperous and celebratory scene.
From Zhengyangmen, the main gate of the imperial city to Changchun Garden, the 30-mile imperial street is decorated with flowers and embroidered covers, and there are colorful corridors, colorful walls, and lantern scripture sheds everywhere; singing and blowing everywhere, drums and cymbals are shaking. The monks and officials of various departments recite the Wanshou Sutra day and night in temples along the Imperial Street. The officials of the Internal Affairs Office are in Qingliang Lane, and the three flags are plastered in Ciyun Temple. They are also chanting the Wanshou Sutra day and night.
The stages along the way started singing auspicious operas early in the morning. Each stage was marked with the words "Zhejiang stage", "Shisan Palace stage in Jiangnan, and "Jiangli Mountain stage". At a glance, you can tell that the opera troupes sent by various provinces came to Beijing to pay their birthday.
The people of Hecheng called their friends out of the city and rushed to the Imperial Street to watch the grand occasion that was rare in a century. The elders who came to attend the ceremony thousands of miles away for several months were sitting in the dragon shed, and were chatting through the shed, waiting for the arrival of Kangxi's imperial carriage. The envoys of the foreign vassals, foreign ministers, accompanies and missionaries from Europe all waited for Kangxi's imperial carriage at designated locations.
At the moment of Si, Kangxi's big chariot and ceremonial guard slowly opened from Changchun Garden amid the solemn music. The four-headed elephants were opened, followed by five-headed gold saddles with treasure bottles, followed by four quiet whips and ten horses, followed by various umbrella covers, longevity fans, banners, banners, flags, golden festivals, cloaks, various eight banners and flags with different representative meanings. A team of hundreds of people walked slowly.
Kangxi was riding a cool chariot, without any obstruction around him, and he could look around him from afar, and the crowds on the street could also calmly see the sky. Of course, he could only go from afar, wherever the imperial carriage went, a group of princes, ministers, civil and military officials, elders, gentry, merchants and people all bowed to the ground to welcome him. Cheers shouting for long live on the mountain came one after another, resounding throughout the fields.
On both sides of Kangxi's Liangbu chariot, twenty-five princes and grandsons accompanied the chariot, and the guards were on both sides of the imperial chariot. Yinzhen naturally also carried the chariot forward and was in a position close to Kangxi. Apart from Kangxi, the most conspicuous ones were him and the eighth brothers. However, it seemed to be a glorious. These days, the limelight was not so easy, and Yinzhen soon felt extremely painful.
As he walked along the way, there were princes and ministers, and elders and gentry flew together on both sides of the road to welcome the saint. When they met the dragon shed and passed the shed, Kangxi also wanted to stop and accept the congratulations. Moreover, he almost kept instructing his ministers to reward the wine, fruits and pastries of the subjects, in order to have fun with the people and let the subjects share his happiness for his longevity.
Kangxi sat on the cold chariot, smiling, and constantly rewarding her head. Yinzhen and his grandsons were punished. Walking and stopping all the way, just like shopping, it was the most tiring. Not to mention, I had to keep a smile on my face all the time. Thirty miles away, less than half of it, Yinzhen felt that the muscles on his face had begun to become stiff and sore. He glanced at Kangxi secretly and saw that his thin face was still full of smiles. He not only secretly complained in his heart, but could you laugh all the way to the palace?
After finally returning to the Forbidden City from Changchun Garden, a grand banquet was followed by. Like the folk rules, this banquet cannot be eaten for nothing and a birthday gift must be paid. For these birthday gifts, all the royal family members, princes, nobles, civil and military ministers who are qualified to give gifts have all been exhausted. They carefully collected all over the world, and they can be said to be rare treasures.
Before the banquet began, Kangxi personally watched the birthday gifts from the ministers as usual. The Thirteenth Old Yinxiang took advantage of his time and asked Yinzhen in a low voice: "Fourth brother, you have always been unique. What did you give this birthday gift?"
Yinzhen smiled and said, "What did you and the starlings give?"
"Hey, what else can I give you?" Yinxiang chuckled and said, "Hey, this is a gift list."
Yinzhen took the gift list and smiled slightly as soon as he saw it. The gift list was marked:
The Eight Immortals of Birthday, the Golden Manjushri Bodhisattva, the Great Birthday (The Book of Zhu Wengong), the Hundred-Green Birthday Box, the Longevity Carved Lacquer and the Longevity Dou, the Shoushan Arhat, the Ten Thousand Years Ganoderma Lucidum, the Bowl of the Immortals (Wanli Kiln), the Changchun Pine, Bamboo and Plum Fumigation Crown Furnace, the Jade Fairy Peach and Ruizhi Cup, the Three Immortals Birthday Stationery, the Ten Thousand Years of Treasure Vase, the Aoki Dragon Wash (Xuan Kiln), the Xuan Tong Treasure Moon Bottle, the Sunflower Flower Pan (Ge Kiln), the Long Live Lotus Vase (June Kiln), the Double Dragon Holding the Longevity Filling Pen Holder, the Song-Embroidered Beasts Dance Stationery, the Forever Protection of Changchun Bowl (Jia Kiln), the Pine, Bamboo and Plum Teapot, the Colorful Lotus Cup Double Entering (Cheng Kiln), the Longevity Honor of Birthday, the Golden Sky Chicken Pot, the Gathering Picture of the Immortals, the Double Dragon Carving Lacquer Square Box, the Backrest of the Son and Yuan Dynasty, the Western Lotus Throne, the Birthday Arhat Picture, the Nine Dragon Holding the Holy Screen, the Double Happy Kuilong Book Case, the Birthday Picture.
