Views:

Dorgon came to the Great Palace early in the morning to meet Huang Taiji.

"Brother 14 came so early, there must be some good news last night?" Huang Taiji motioned to him to sit down on the opposite chair and pour a cup of horse milk tea by himself.

Dorgon sat down on the chair opposite Huang Taiji, "Sweat, it's a pity, we don't have rice wine from the Han people. If you can get the envoy drunk, you can definitely find out more information."

Huang Taiji looked at Dorgon and saw that his pupils were bright, knowing that he must have detected some useful information, "Fourteenth brother, first tell me, what information has been detected?"

"Khan, at last night's banquet, I can wait for at least two messages: first, Emperor Daming has sincerity for peace talks; second, the terms of the peace talks offered by Chongzhen can be changed completely."

Huang Taiji smiled and said, "Of course it can be changed. Such conditions cannot be accepted by Dajin Country anyway. Have you heard about Chongzhen's bottom line

Dorgon shook his head: "Not yet, Huang Xiaofu is very alert, but I have a way to listen to some more information, who makes Huang Xiaofu a hungry ghost in sex?" He added Huang Xiaofu's fancy to the dancer and said with jealousy Again.

"Haha, Han people are horny!" Huang Taiji suddenly thought that he was about to canonize the Fujin side of the East Palace, and laughed at himself, "Fourteenth brother, you are doing a good job, but unfortunately there is no one who went to Guangning to listen to the information. Back, we cannot set the bottom line for peace talks with Daming for the time being."

Dorgon looked at Huang Taiji: "Is Da Khan really ready to negotiate with Daming?"

Huang Taiji smiled without answering: "Fourteenth brother, what do you think?"

Dorgon laughed too: "I'm afraid Da Khan is waiting for the message from Three Baylor, right?"

"Haha," the emperor laughed greatly, and he extended his thumb to Dorgon: "The fourteenth brother is really smart and wise, I can't hide anything from you."

"Sweat, I'm afraid that San Baylor's blue flag is not good." Dorgon's voice suddenly fell octave.

"What did you hear?" Huang Taiji raised his head, how much he hoped that it was Dorgon who was slanderous.

"Sweat, this is what Huang Xiaofu said after drinking. The credibility is very high. We must prepare early just in case."

Huang Taiji nodded, "We are going to make preparations... Could it be that Mang Gurtai, this trash, really defeated the battle?"

"Da Khan, I have an idea," Dorgon saw Huang Taiji staring at him, knowing that Huang Taiji was interested in his words, "Isn't Da Khan planning to canonize Harizhula as the Fujin of the East Palace? Then set the scene. Bigger, and also invite Ming ambassador Huang Xiaofu to participate."

"Why? What does it have to do with Daming that the canonization of the Donggong side is Fujin?"

"Khan, let the ambassador understand that even if the battlefield is unfavorable in our country, we still have a firm ally... Horqin, so that we can increase the capital for peace talks."

"Yeah!" Huang Taiji nodded, he thought for a while, and then asked: "Has Wu Keshan gone back?"

"Not yet, Da Khan, of course he will not go back until his sister canonized it."

"I suddenly had an idea, didn't Er Baylor have an adult daughter? In order to strengthen the connection between Da Jin Guo and Horqin, I plan to marry her to Sessan and be escorted back by Wu Keshan."

Dorgon was a little worried, "Khan, is Sessan really reliable? Speaking of reliability, Oba Khan should be more reliable than Sessan."

"Oba Khan is more reliable. Of course I understand that he has married his father Khan's adopted granddaughter, Gizzard Gege," Huang Taiji drank a sip of horse milk tea, "Fourteenth brother, you don’t understand. Although Auba is Horqin Although the population and property of Saisan are not inferior to that of Auba, he is the most powerful figure in Horqin."

"..."

"The more unreliable the person, the more we must win over him. This is not only for the ambassador, but also for Sesson. The people who support my Dajin Nation are my friends and brothers. They are also our relatives, those who oppose the Great Golden State, or those who step on two boats. I, the Great Golden State, will never be stingy with a few cavalry, just like I did with Lin Danhan."

"Khan, I understand, I'll go talk to Wu Keshan."

"Fourteenth brother, when the canonization ceremony is over, the people who went to Guangning to inquire about the information should have returned. You are already familiar with the Mingshi. You first speak with them on behalf of the Great Golden State. Be sure to find out their bottom line."

"Yes, sweating profusely." Dorgon bid farewell to Huang Taiji, and he immediately went to look for Wu Keshan.

The canonization ceremony of Hari Zula was held as scheduled in the Phoenix Building. Hari Zula was publicly canonized as the East Palace Side Fu Jin and officially changed its name to Hai Lan Zhu.

Participants in the ceremony were Da Jin Kingdom's big and small Baylor and a group of important ministers, Hari Zula's brother Wu Keshan and Daming's messenger Huang Xiaofu, who also participated in the ceremony with different moods.

Three days later, Wu Keshan took Shuergege back to Horqin, and Dorgon met with the envoy of Ming Dynasty Huang Xiaofu at the Xiangbaiqiting in the southeast of the Great Palace.

Because it was the first formal peace talks, only Dorgon and Huang Xiaofu were present, and their respective interpreters were standing behind them.

They are already acquaintances, so there is no need to introduce each other.

"Lord Belle, I first congratulate Dahan Dahan and happy Nadong Palace side blessing." Huang Xiaofu arched his hands and performed the etiquette of a Han Chinese.

But Dorgon used his right hand to caress his chest, acting like a Jurchen man: "I also congratulate Mr. Huang... Mr. Huang is having a good time these days?"

"Fortunately, fortunately, it is all the blessing of Lord Tobel!" Huang Xiaofu slowly lowered his head while speaking, his old face was really blushing.

Dorgon seized the opportunity and went straight ahead: "Mr. Huang, I have the sincerity of peace talks in the Golden State, but the three conditions of His Majesty Emperor Ming are too harsh. Now it is a formal peace talks. Mr. Huang should talk about your truth. I mean... to show Daming's sincerity."

"This... this..." Huang Xiaofu hesitated.

Dorgon took out an elegant square box from his arms and put it on the table, "Mr. Huang came from afar, this is my little heart from Dorgon."

Huang Xiaofu knocked open the box lightly, his face changed suddenly. His eyes lighted up and he was about to reach out to touch the beads in the box, but finally held back, his hands retracted and put them on the horse milk tea cup, his face The red light also disappeared: "Master Baylor, this gift is too rich, I really dare not accept it."

But his eyes have never left the brocade box.

Dorgon sees everything in his eyes, "Mr. Huang, the poor widow of Dajin Country, there are not many gifts that can be handed out. This chicken blood orb is not only Dajin Country, but also my Dorgon. Don’t worry about your personal friendship, sir."

"This... That..." Huang Xiaofu said incoherently. He didn't know what to do. He couldn't give back such an expensive gift.

"Mr. Huang..." Dorgon said no more, he just pushed the box towards Huang Xiaofu.

Huang Xiaofu stuffed the box, together with the bloodstone inside, into his arms, "Master Baylor is so kind, I have to be disrespectful!"

"It should be, it should be!" A sly light flashed in Dorgon's eyes, which disappeared for a moment.

"Huh huh!" Huang Xiaofu coughed, and took the box and the beads. "Master Baylor, my majesty has the sincerity of peace talks, but the Kingdom of Kings must surrender the original land of Daming Liaodong. Otherwise, it's not just me. My Majesty cannot explain it to his subjects."

"Mr. Huang, Daming has a vast territory. Liaodong is a land of bitter cold. Hetuala cannot feed our Jurchen population. If Daming leaves us a piece of land for survival, we will not treat him badly, let alone treat him badly. Mr."

"This..." Huang Xiaofu closed his eyes and thought for a moment. "Master Belle, how much land can the Great Kingdom return?"

"Mr. Huang," Dorgon increased his tone. "Our current land was laid down when Ama was alive. For this land, we have also died many people. If the land is given too much, not We can't feed the population, even if Tian Cong Khan is in the position, we can't sit still."

"Yeah!" Huang Xiaofu nodded and agreed with Dorgon's opinion. "My Majesty said, if it is impossible to recover all the territory of Liaodong, at least the land from Liaoyang to Guangning, including the southern part of Liaodong and Gaizhou, should be recovered. Shenyang can give it to you from the first line of Jinzhou."

"Mr. Huang, please take a look." Dorgon unfolded a marching map of the Great Golden State. "If all the south of Liaoyang is returned to Daming, then Shenyang and Hetuala will not be connected together."

Huang Xiaofu looked down at Dorgon’s marching map. Although he did not know the Jurchen script, he could still see the locations of the towns. On the marching map, it really looked like Dorgon said, "Then we can In the middle, I will draw a passage for you to pass through for the military and civilians of the Kingdom of Kingsland."

Dorgon shook his head, "Mr. Huang, this passage will definitely be controlled by Daming. The soldiers and civilians of the Golden Kingdom are walking on the road, and they feel uneasy! In case the generals of the Ming army stationed here make a joke with us, We can't take it anymore."

Huang Xiaofu looked up at Huang Taiji, "Lord Nabele means..."

Dorgon smiled: "Mr. Huang, what I mean is not important. The key is Mr. Huang and His Majesty the Emperor Ming behind Mr. Huang."

"Haha, haha," Huang Xiaofu was very helpful, "Master Baylor joked. Since it is a peace talk, the two parties have to say what they mean."

"Mr. Huang is right!" Dorgon avoided the topic, "Is His Majesty Ming Emperor really willing to sign a peace treaty with Dajin Country?"

"Master Baylor rest assured, my majesty is sincere and sincere, hoping to truce with the Great Golden Kingdom, and the two countries will never move their swords and soldiers, otherwise, I will not be sent to Shengjing from afar."

"I believe in Mr. Huang's words and the sincerity of His Majesty Ming," Dorgon paused. "Going back to the question just now, if His Majesty Ming is sincere, how could he connect our Shengjing to Hetu? Alashan cut it?"

"Master Baylor," Huang Xiaofu also felt that this method of dividing the land was a bit unreasonable, "Master Baylor, this, let's talk about it next time!"

"Okay, then let's talk about the issue of compensation... If Dajin Country compensates so many cattle, horses and sheep without Da Ming driving them, we will all starve to death. Mr. Huang, Ben Belle is dull, why didn't we see Da Ming's sincerity?"

"Master Baylor, this can't work," Huang Xiaofu's gaze suddenly became fierce. "Master Baylor, Daming, the soldiers and civilians who died in Liaodong over the past few years are no less than millions, and the amount of silver spent is no less than tens of millions. If you Without compensation, we will never sign a peace agreement."

"Haha, haha, don’t worry about Mr. Huang, we are negotiating peacefully! Anything can be discussed,” Dorgon said haha, “Mr. Huang, I rushed to negotiate with Mr. Huang today, and didn’t even have breakfast. Satiated, why don't we talk while we eat?"
