Zhang Zhaohua was in a good mood today, and after taking a nap for a while, he got up in good spirits, and shouted that he was also lost, but he was told that this person was summoned by the emperor.

When Yishiha came back, Zhang Zhaohua asked him what the emperor had summoned him, and Yishaha said: "The emperor is a Jurchen because the slave and maid are Jurchens, and this time he will send the slave and maid to the slave and the slave to inspect and appease him, I am afraid that he will set off in a few days, so he has come to say goodbye to the mother." ”

When the emperor led his army to drive out the savage Jurchens, he wanted to promote the Nu'er Ganwei to the capital and govern the military administration of Heilongjiang and Ussuri rivers. The emperor was very concerned about the strategy of this place - before the establishment of the Nuer Gandu Division, the emperor successively set up more than 130 guards in the Songhua River, Nenjiang River, Onen River, Jingqili River, Hengluo River and Ussuri River basins, all of which were under the jurisdiction of the Nuer Gandu Division, which stretched from the Onen River in the west, to Sakhalin Island in the east, to the Outer Khingan Mountains in the north, to the Sea of Japan and the upper reaches of the Tumen River in the south, including the Heilongjiang River basin and the Ussuri River basin to Sakhalin Island.

This time, the emperor commanded Kang Wang as the commander of Dongningwei as the commander of Tongzhi, and Wang Zhaozhou of Qianhu as the commander of the affairs, and ordered Yizha to lead more than 1,000 officers and troops, 25 huge ships, and escorted Kang Wang and other officials to the Telin place on the other side of the Hengluo River estuary, and inspected the Nuer Gandu Division, of course, the main task was to appease the Jurchens, the emperor repeatedly emphasized that the Heilongjiang River valley was "the land of the key", and it was one of the national policies to appease the Jurchens.

"You can be regarded as having a future," Zhang Zhaohua sighed: "Zheng He and Wang Jinghong went to the West, Li Datong went to the Western Regions, Haitong passed Siam, Hou Xian sent the west, Wang An guarded Guangxi, Ma Jing guarded Gansu, Ma Qi guarded Jiaozhi, and Huang Yan went to North Korea - they went out of the palace, they were all people who responded to the call, you who waited, looking at the noble, actually envy them for being able to go outside, right?"

"Slaves and maids don't dare, they can serve their mothers," Yishu said, "It's the blessing of slaves and maids." ”

"At this time, I still said this," Zhang Zhaohua said with a smile: "It's really hypocritical." ”

She said with a blank face, and said: "You are a Jurchen, and your heart is undoubtedly towards the Jurchens, if I let me know that you interfered in the imperial court's policy of suppressing and appeasing the Jurchens, I would not spare you." If you can convince the Jurchens who surrendered, it is your job to take care of them, but if there is a Jurchen tribe that disturbs the Dusi Guard, and the Dusi commander is determined to exterminate it, if you are a foreign coward and leak the situation, it is a big sin, think clearly and then go!"

Yisha Lian promised that he would not be like this, Zhang Zhaohua said: "You go to Liaodong to find out the residence, population, and leaders of the various Jurchen tribes, preferably like Zheng He, his subordinates have the habit of taking notes, and wherever they go, there will be any written records, and you will also learn from it, and record the situation of the slaves and the capital." ”

"Look carefully, among the Jurchen tribe, if there is," Zhang Zhaohua said: "If there is a surname Aixin Jueluo, you should pay special attention to their situation, I want you to know everything about their situation, come back and tell me in detail." ”

Before she finished speaking, she saw Yishuha's mouth open wide, and said: "Niangniang, the Jiawen clan is Aixin Jueluo, their leader followed the Aha of Jianzhou Wei out of the capital, and now lives in the Siyi Pavilion. ”

Zhang Zhaohua felt as if he had been struck by lightning: "What is the name of their leader?"

"It's called Brother Meng, Timur. "I also lost my way.

"Is it called Brother Meng, Timur! Haitong told me!" Zhang Zhaohua jumped up: "I really didn't expect that - he is the ancestor of Aixin Jueluo!"

In the twenty-ninth year of Hongwu, Zhang Zhaohua listened to Haitong, who came back from Liaodong, said that the Jurchen three Huli Reform Department, the Tuowen Department, and the Huli Reform Department, the chief of the Huli Reform Department, Aha Out, had a heart to the Ming Dynasty, and as for the Hu Duo Relief Department, it was one of the five Jurchen military and civilian Wanhu mansions built by the former Yuan in the area of the Heishui River today, and its chieftain was named Mengge Timur, and its department had a very close relationship with the Huli Reform Department, and the two tribes intermarried with each other. At this time, the tribe was small and could not keep warm, and had been surviving under the attack of Korea, the savage Jurchen and the Ming Dynasty, and it was very hard, and now he followed Aha out of the Ming Dynasty and was willing to surrender to the Ming Dynasty.

It turned out that Nurhachi's ancestor came, and right under his nose, Zhang Zhaohua confirmed again: "Brother Meng, Timur, can it be translated as Mengmut?"

Yisha said: "It seems more appropriate to translate it as Mengmut." ”

That's it!

Zhang Zhaohua said, "Have you seen him?"

"Yes," Yisha said inexplicably: "His tribe and the Huli tribe intermarried with each other, and the fierce brother Timur married his sister to the eldest son of Aha out of Shijia slave, and the daughter of the second son of Aha out Mang Ge Buhua was married to the second son of Meng brother Timur Duchi. The two departments are close to each other and have a very close relationship. ”

Yishaha was originally a slave of the Huli Reform Ministry, and he knew a lot about both the Huli Reform and the Huduo Mercy Ministry.

Zhang Zhaohua asked a lot more questions, she couldn't sit still anymore, so she simply changed her clothes, and pretended to be a little eunuch, followed behind Yishaha, and the two took a carriage and came to the Siyi Pavilion in Nanpingfang.

The hall seemed to be lively, and Yishiha showed his waist card at the door, and the officials let him in, saying that a banquet was being held inside to entertain the envoys from all directions.

The envoys of Ryukyu Shannan, Shanbei, Java, Champong, Guli, Kezhi, Nanboli, Gambari, Manraka, Kurumus, Sumatra, and Lost Thoughts are feasting and drinking, and these people are all gathered together, speaking all incomprehensible bird language, and their clothes are also dazzling, but Zhang Zhaohua knew that these were all South Asians, so he said: "Aren't there a lot of envoys from the Western Regions who have also come, why haven't they been entertained?"

Samarkand, Turpan, Huozhou, Liucheng, Hami, and Hashihar also came to congratulate the emperor on his birthday, but the official didn't seem to look very good when asked, and muttered that he couldn't afford to entertain, and Yishuha seemed to know what was going on, and gave Zhang Zhaohua a look, so she didn't ask.

The two of them were brought into the back hall, and the official also asked about the origin of Yishaha, so he asked them to sit down for a while, and he went to call the Jurchen leader to come over. At this time, he also lost Hacai and said: "The envoys brought back by Gonggong Zheng from the sea are indeed envoys, but those who come to pay tribute from the West and the Western Regions are not envoys, but merchants who pretend to pay tribute. ”

Since the time of Emperor Gao, he sent people to the Western Regions, wanting to get through, but the Western Regions are not so easy to get through, Samarkand is in the hands of Timur, a horse, hostile to China, detaining envoys, the countries of the Western Regions are afraid of the powerful Samarkand, and they also adopt a hostile attitude towards the Ming Dynasty, so the people who come and go to the Ming Dynasty are not the envoys of the Western Regions at all, but the merchants who are greedy for China's wealth, this situation is not improved until Timur dies, and his heirs are no longer hostile to China, but the envoys who come and go only once in a few years, and the rest come and go, all in the name of the envoys, all with horses, camels, jade, and merchants who claimed to be dedicated, they naturally received the emperor's warm hospitality, but of course this could not be concealed from the officials who entertained them, and they did not have a good impression of these people in the Siyi Pavilion, and their goods were bought at a price higher than several times, and there were large gifts before leaving, and the emperor said that they had all the expenses for boats, cars, water and land, morning and dusk drinks and meals in the Ming Dynasty. Thousands of miles from east to west, the military and civilians are tired of transporting, I don't know how much it costs, and there is no public and private one who does not have grievances.

"With China's limited wealth, it is useless to supply foreign countries," Zhang Zhaohua said: "I see, everyone knows that it is just for the emperor's face, and no one dares to say it." ”
