Zhou Chong was also very curious about the princess Han Baoli in history. From the sudden appearance of this princess in Nanyang until she died in a palace coup, her life was like a mystery, and it was covered everywhere.

There is a fog that makes people unable to see clearly, so Zhou Chong really wants to know the true identity of this Princess Han Baoli.

Seeing that Zhou Chong had been inquiring about Princess Han Baoli's identity, Mr. Lu also showed a hint of embarrassment on his face. However, after finally exchanging glances with Zhao Pu and others, he finally said, "I want to hide it from the Admiral, we are all

When the family came to Malacca to settle down, the Princess Han Baoli had already passed away, but she gave birth to two princes for the Sultan at that time. One of them died prematurely, and the other one was the one who failed the coup with the Huang family.

Alic, who fled to Jinzhou later."

"What?" Zhou Chong stood up in shock when he heard this. Princess Han Baoli came to Malacca with the Huang family. Later, her son joined forces with the Huang family to resist Tamil. If this is the case, it is said that it is the case.

If it doesn't matter, he won't believe it even if Zhou Chong was killed.

Then Mr. Lu continued to introduce: "As for the true origin of Princess Han Baoli, we actually don't know very clearly. We just have some speculations, but people from the Huang family must know that Princess Han Baoli was.

Take their boat to Malacca.”

"Oh, according to your guess, what is that Princess Han Baoli's identity?" Zhou Chong asked again. The people from the Huang family are still in Jinzhou opposite Malacca City, and they probably won't see them in a short time.

So now I can only ask Mr. Lu and others who know some of the inside stories.

"Sir Qibing, before we express our guesses, please introduce the situation of the Malacca Kingdom at that time. If you understand the situation at that time, you can understand the origin of Princess Han Baoli."

Seeing Zhou's key point, he introduced the situation before Princess Han Baoli came to the Kingdom of Malacca.

It turned out that the king who reigned at that time was named Luo Yan Kashim. He was a very capable king in the history of the Malacca Kingdom. During his reign, he formally designated Islam as the state religion and called himself Sultan Muzaffar.

.Sha, which formally Islamized the country. At the same time, he also made great achievements in military affairs. He attacked Siam twice and occupied Selangor, a grain base in the northwest. He even crossed the Strait of Malacca. He expanded his territory to the opposite Jin.

In the continent, this move also allowed the Kingdom of Malacca to completely control the Strait of Malacca.

However, the expansion of Sultan Muzaffar Sha also established many enemies for him, especially Siam in the north, which was the archenemy of the Kingdom of Malacca, because the predecessor of the Kingdom of Malacca was the vassal state of Siam, and later it became independent

.Siam has always been resentful of this. After several attacks on the Kingdom of Malacca, Siam changed his strategy and actively joined forces with other countries to isolate the Kingdom of Malacca, and even prepared to form a coalition forces to attack the Kingdom of Malacca.

Although the Malacca Kingdom was strong at that time, Sultan Muzaffar Sha knew that if Siam allowed to unite other countries to isolate him, if his country weakened in the future, then it would definitely attract a coalition led by Siam.

Their Kingdom of Malacca will also suffer a catastrophe.

It was also under this situation that the Princess Han Baoli suddenly appeared, and also brought a large number of servants and maids. Although the Malacca Kingdom claimed that the princess came to Malacca on Zheng He's treasure ship, Mr. Lu and others

Later, through interactions with the Huang family, I realized that Princess Han Baoli actually came on the Huang family's ship, the so-called large number of servants and maids. In fact, a considerable number of them were from the Huang family, real princess servants and maids.

There are only a dozen together.

Princess Han Baoli suddenly appeared in Malacca and brought the imperial edict given by the Ming Emperor to marry. Sultan Muzaffar Sha of the Kingdom of Malacca claimed to the public because the Ming Emperor valued his character, and he proposed to the Ming Dynasty.

Finally, he moved the Emperor of Ming Dynasty, so he married Princess Baoli of Han.

At that time, it was not too long before Zheng He's voyage to the Western Ocean. The Ming Dynasty's deterrence against the South China countries was still very powerful. Seeing that the Kingdom of Malacca was actually given a marriage from the Ming Dynasty, this immediately greatly increased the prestige of the Kingdom of Malacca and many South China Seas.

The countries all rushed to interact with the Kingdom of Malacca. This also made Siam's plan to isolate the Kingdom of Malacca bankrupt. The Kingdom of Malacca also took this opportunity to expand its influence in one fell swoop and consolidate its position as dominant of the Strait of Malacca.

"So that's it. According to your statement, that Princess Han Baoli is probably a conspiracy of the Kingdom of Malacca. They took advantage of our Ming Dynasty's prestige in Southeast Asia, and found such a woman from somewhere, and then claimed to the outside world that the other party was the Ming Dynasty Princess?

"When Zhou Chong heard this, he suddenly guessed something, but there was still a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

"The Admiral is wise. Although we have no real evidence, all signs show that the Princess Han Baoli was indeed a conspiracy of the Kingdom of Malacca at that time. However, Princess Han Baoli was not found by the Kingdom of Malacca. She is likely to be

It was arranged by the Huang family, and this matter was even likely to be a drama performed by the Huang family and the Kingdom of Malacca!" Mr. Lu said finally.

"Huh? No!" Zhou Chong suddenly thought of a question at this moment and said, "Old Lu, according to your statement, the timing of Princess Han Baoli's appearance is too coincidental. Anyone with a discerning eye can see the flaw at a glance, but

Why did all the countries in Southeast Asia believe the arguments of the Kingdom of Malacca and think that Princess Han Baoli is true?”

"Sir, I don't know, this is the blame for this matter. Originally, when Princess Han Baoli just married into the Kingdom of Malacca, many Southeast Asian countries also suspected her identity, but the sea ban in the Ming Dynasty was in the strictest period.

Even overseas vassal states are not allowed to pay tribute. The countries in the South China Sea cannot verify this from the Ming Dynasty for the time being. In addition, the words and deeds of the Princess Baoli of Han are extremely noble, and they are very familiar with the palace and structure of the Ming Dynasty Palace, and even know a lot.

In the court affairs, the suspects also came to the Kingdom of Malacca to visit Princess Han Baoli in person. Many of them were envoys who had been to the Ming Dynasty, but they were unable to find out the flaws in Princess Han Baoli. As a result, this

This made most people gradually believe that Princess Han Baoli is really the princess of the Ming Dynasty.”

When Mr. Lu talked about the above, he also showed a puzzled expression on his face. After all, all signs indicate that Princess Han Baoli should be a fake, but this princess is very familiar with the affairs in the Ming Dynasty Palace.

This is obviously not something that ordinary people can know, so Mr. Lu was puzzled by this matter.

Zhou Chong also frowned after hearing Mr. Lu's words. According to Mr. Lu, although the identity of Princess Han Baoli was suspicious, he was very familiar with the things in the Great Star Palace. However, the Ming Dynasty's palace was strictly guarded, except

Except for the concubines and princesses living in the palace, only the eunuchs and palace maids are very familiar with the palace. If Princess Han Baoli's identity is fake, then she is likely to be the palace maid who escaped from the palace, but this

It's not right. After all, the palace maids are palace maids. They don't have much chance of getting educated. Their words and deeds cannot be as noble as real princesses. Moreover, as their identities, they usually have very limited contact with people and their knowledge of things in the palace is limited.

, it is impossible to hide from so many Kingdom messengers.

Thinking of this, Zhou Chong couldn't help but fall into doubt. At the same time, he was even more curious about Princess Han Baoli's identity, and even wanted to find the people from the Huang family and the son of Princess Han Baoli, Alik, who believed they should be able to do it.

Provide more information about this princess.

The discussion on Princess Han Baoli has come to an end for the time being. Mr. Lu and his friends have already told everything they know, and the rest is not something they can know.

Next, Zhou Chong asked about the life and business of these people in Malacca Port. As a result, Mr. Lu told him that although they were far away from the Central Plains for many years, they still maintained the habits of the Han people and even only intermarried within the Han people. In this regard,

Different from the aesthetics of the South Asians, on the other hand, they don’t want to intermarry with the lazy and stupid natives of the South Asian country. As for the hot and humid weather in the South Asian country, they have lived in the South Asian country for so many years and have long been used to the climate here.

Nanyang has a wealth of specialties. As long as you work harder, at least you don’t have to worry about being hungry.

As for their family's business, it is mainly about being a middleman. Especially when the Ming Dynasty merchants transport goods to the port of Malacca, they will spend money to eat the other party's goods and then find a suitable buyer to make money.

The difference between them. Of course, they also have their own fleet, but because they are far away from the Ming Dynasty and the shipbuilding technology in Malacca is too poor, their fleet is not far away and can only transport goods and trade goods on nearby islands.

After learning about the lives of the Han people in Nanyang, Zhou Chong suddenly spoke: "Old Lu, I have said just now that our Ming army has taken over the port of Malacca, and the management of the port will also belong to our four seas admiral yamen, but we are concerned about it.

Malacca and Nanyang are not very familiar with each other, so I may encounter many problems in managing the port. However, if you can get help from Mr. Lu, we will definitely reduce a lot of trouble. I wonder if Mr. Lu, you are willing to let the children of the clan arrive at the port.

Go on duty?”

Zhou Chong finally explained his main purpose of visiting Mr. Lu and others. After taking over the port of Malacca, it is not possible to rely on his subordinates alone. Some people familiar with the local area must help. Zhou Chong did not believe the people in Malacca.

, so naturally I hope that Mr. Lu and other Han people who settled in Malacca can come out to help him.
Chapter completed!
