1783-1806, Tianqi is often overlooked till he dies in mysterious circumstances
12 September 1783
[T - I mean I am the Emperor]
Yes but ... look I'm busy at the moment .. go Harry kill, kill, kill
[H – this is getting scary]
[H – rather fun though]
23 November 1783
[T - I want to be in charge]
Oh you are, just stop distracting me
kill kill, go on ...
[H – oh god help me, what has she been drinking?]
7 February 1784
Who? Oh they will never catch up with China
17 September 1784
[H – look calm down, there is nobody left for us to kill]
3 April 1785
Tianqi has stopped talking to me since I pointed where I'd like to bury him ... maybe I need a soothing cup of tea
[H – yep, you're scaring the devil out of me]
9 September 1785
[H – now lets finish off some more of the wars around here ... you need the peace and calm]
[1]
25 October 1785
Ah it is all so calm now Harry has run off to Prag. His final words were, 'she hates me but its a lot safer than hanging around here'
Hah, now China is all mine.
1 January 1786
Oh I do like a mass of soldiers parading around at the New Year party
8 September 1786
Tianqi was getting all sorts of independent ideas again. He went quiet when I offered to introduce him to his long lost cousins.
1 May 1788
Tianqi is maybe not quite the genius I expected. All he said when I suggested we absorbed the Manchus was 'Fu'
[2]
Now everyone is accusing me of being despotic
13 September 1788
Now Tianqi is complaining that my new Imperial peacock hutch is spoiling his views
16 May 1789
Finally Tianqi has accepted it is time to be more enlightened
[3]
1 September 1790
Its not true ... no not at all, and if it is true then the peacock started it ... yes
21 March 1798
Soon China will be covered by my peacock hutches
5 March 1806
Had a quiet day feeding the peacocks and trimming the peach trees.
Was very surprised to find Tianqi stuffed upside down in a grain barrel having been battered by a peach stone (which was still attached to a large branch)
[4]
[1] – about five posts back Korea started this war, I left them fully occupied till they would accept becoming a vassal as the peace terms
[2] – I hadn't realised what this implied as its set up for a Manchu take over of Ming. As a result I went back and did it again and modded the decision so I stayed Ming. I still ended losing the Celestial Empire (but keep the factions). Had I done this earlier (like 200 years ago) I could have emulated Knul's trick of going Republican and swapping Emperors about to ensure near complete control over the faction system.
[3] – I released a few single province minors as vassals to drive my infamy down before making this switch
[4] – yep next to nothing happened in those 10 years
