In the hall of the glorious and magnificent Acting Prince's Mansion, tea has been placed for guests. Luo Xiu changed into an official uniform and sat upright. On both sides sat Wang Yongji, Jiang Hao, Gao Di and the visiting Luo Yangxing and Luo Yangxing's deputy envoy Zuo Maotai.

Now the most powerful in the city of Datong Mansion is actually the chief soldier Jiang Jiu, followed by the trilateral governor Wang Yongji, and then the trilateral general soldier Gao Di - Gao Di was originally the general soldier of Xuanfu, and received Zhu Cihong's order in August to be reappointed as the chief soldier of the three sides, in fact, he changed his name.

And the power of Shi Luo, the governor of the palace, is second to Gao Di, and he is the fourth most powerful person in Datong Mansion. However, he can represent the thirteen-year-old acting king Zhu Cihuan, so when he is promoted to the Changshi Mansion, he has to sit on the top.

"Luo Changshi, Governor Wang, now that my Qing Dynasty's legation is heading to Nanjing, the prince of your country will be the son-in-law of the regent in a short time. So the regent decided to take a step back, and Taiyuan Mansion didn't want it, and used it to exchange for Datong Mansion. This Taiyuan is much better than Datong, don't miss the opportunity. ”

The one who is talking is Zuo Maotai, he was the original Ming Dynasty's military department member Wailang, and later surrendered to Dashun as a second minister, and then surrendered to the Qing Dynasty as a third minister, and was also promoted to be a military squire.

He has a cousin who is Zuo Maodi, and now he has returned to his hometown in Laiyang, while being a filial son, he also ran a group training, and also became the minister of Shandong League training in the Ming Dynasty, and set up a group training minister Yamen in Laiyang County, and also pulled up the Zuo family army with a few cousins, which is very popular.

After Luo Yangxing finished speaking, he took over the topic and said: "This envoy has already received the news that the delegation has been allowed to go south before leaving Beijing. In addition, I also learned that there was a rebellion in Nanjing City in early September, and it was the nobles and ministers of Nanjing who wanted to oppose the prince of Fujun, so they instigated the Beijing camp mutiny......."

"There is such a thing?"

"How did it turn out?"

"Who won?"

Luo Xiushen, Wang Yongji, and Gao Sanren were all a little nervous when they heard the news, and hurriedly asked.

"Of course, the prince of Fujun won," Luo Xiushen said with a smile, "Nanjing's nobles and ministers are all unlucky, and at least dozens of them are going to be destroyed!" It seems that there is also a Donglin boss involved, and it seems that the prince of Fujun has to spend some effort to settle down. Therefore, the probability of success in this north-south negotiation is extremely high, and you don't have to worry about the Ming and Qing dynasties going to war. ”

His brows furrowed again: "There is also news, on the ninth day of the eighth month, the army of thieves broke through the city of Chengdu!" Now the upper reaches of the Yangtze River are owned by the thieves, and the upper reaches of the Han River, Xiangyang, are owned by the thieves. If the two thieves go downstream, how can Jiangdong have a peaceful day? ”

Luo Xiushen, Wang Yongji, Jiang Xuan, and Gao Sisi looked at each other, and they all felt that if Luo Yang's words were true. Then Zhu Cihong seems to have no other choice but to kiss. Even if they don't make peace, they won't go to war with the Qing Dynasty.

Wang Yongji said: "The matter of Jin Yi must be nodded by the prince...... If the prince agrees, how should he do it? ”

Wang Ye is only thirteen years old, and he can't be the master at all, but the procedure is still needed, so Wang Yongji can't nod right away. But now that he is asking about the specific implementation plan, he is obviously ready to agree to Jin Yidai.

"Of course, the Qing army will help you take Taiyuan first, and then you will hand over Datong." Zuo Maotai said, "My Qing soldiers will send troops to Taiyuan Mansion in October, and we will definitely do our best to deal with the rebellion at that time." When the time comes, you pretend to join forces with the rebels, and secretly borrow the way to the Qing soldiers, and the two combined troops will go south from Yingzhou and Mayi, seize Yanmen and Ningwu Erguan, and then attack Xinzhou and go straight to Taiyuan! ”

Luo Yangxing said with a smile: "Now the elite of the rebellion are all in Shanxi, if they can be attacked in the east and north and wipe them out, it will be much easier for the Ming court to take Xiangyang and Guanzhong." Such a good thing, Prince Fujun will definitely approve of it. ”

Wang Yongji glanced at Luo Xiushen, Luo Xiushen nodded and said, "This matter must be presented to His Royal Highness the King of the Ming Dynasty, and I will give you an answer tomorrow." ”

......

After sending Luo Yangxing and Zuo Maotai to the hotel, Wang Yongji, Luo Xiushen, Jiang Xuan, Gao Di and others returned to the lobby of the Changshi Division and began to discuss how to reply.

Wang Yongji spoke first: "Jiang Zongrong, Gao Zongrong, Luo Changshi, do you think this thing can be done?" ”

"I'll see it!" Jiang Hao was the first to speak, "It's always cost-effective to exchange Datong for Taiyuan, how rich is Taiyuan?" The population and territory are more than Datong, and we can also develop south and seize the territories of Fenzhou, Liaozhou, and Pingyangfu. ”

Gao Di also smiled and agreed: "Yes, yes, Datong is surrounded by enemies on all sides, and it is difficult to expand the territory, so it is better to go to Taiyuan!" ”

He is more eager to go south to Taiyuan than Jiang Jiu, because he, the general soldier, has no territory now, and he has a hard time under the fence. If you can go south to Taiyuan, then you will have the opportunity to seize the land of Yifu and become a town guard.

Wang Yongji stroked his beard, and the longing smile on his face also explained the problem.

He's a governor! How aggrieved are you bored in Datong Mansion? If he can go south to Taiyuan, then most of Shanxi Province will always be able to let him "supervise", how can it be stronger than now.

Now only Luo Xiushen is left, and his relationship with Zhu Cihong is confidential, so he can't use the identity of "Qincha" to oppress people.

Without the identity of "Qincha", he is just a five-grade long history, how can he contradict the governor and the chief soldier?

But can you believe the words of the Tartars? Don't be a false plan!

"Controlling the army, General Rong, the lower officials feel that this matter should be cautious......" Luo Xiu said, "Although Li Zicheng is hateful, he and we are now dependent on each other, and we are really going to defeat the Tartars, can we really get Taiyuan?" Will the Tartars keep their promises so much? The lower officials don't believe it! ”

The truth of the cold lips and the false way is obvious, and it is a bit wishful thinking to expect the Qing Dynasty to keep its word after victory, but Wang Yongji and Jiang Hao shook their heads again and again.

Wang Yongji said with a smile: "The long history is poor, the Tartars are not credible, but the Liukou is credible?" The Tartars may not fail to keep their covenants after they win. And if the rogues win, they will inevitably break the agreement! ”

"yes!" Jiang Hao nodded again and again, "If the Tartar doesn't keep the agreement, I can just leave." If the rogues don't keep their promises, we'll be dead! ”

He didn't make it completely clear - the so-called walking away is nonsense, and falling into the water as a traitor is true!

If the Qing army really destroyed the false way, a few of them could still be second ministers and three ministers. But if Li Zicheng enters Datong, hehe...... Can Jiang Jiu live? Can Wang Yongji live? Can Gaudi live? I have to let Li Zicheng slaughter!

So a few of them could only trap Li Zicheng......

Luo Xiushen also knew that what they said made sense, they were all people who offended Li Zicheng and suffered!

"But we can't help but guard against the Tartars," Luo Xiu said, "We can't let the Tartars come over on the road in the direction of Xuanfu, let them take the Flying Fox Road." ”

Jiang Hao nodded, "That's it...... Wait for our soldiers to enter Taiyuan Mansion City according to the agreement, and then give up Datong. ”

"Our soldiers must enter the territory of Taiyuan Mansion as soon as possible!" Luo Xiushen said again, "Go to Ningwu Pass to enter the territory of Zhenxiwei, first lay a foundation in Luliang Mountain, and if the situation changes, you can also let the prince go up the mountain." ”

"Okay!" Wang Yongji said, "That's it...... If it doesn't work, let the prince go to Luliang Mountain. ”

Luo Xiushen asked again: "Then Li Zicheng's side, how should we reply?" ”

Of course, these people in Datong Mansion will not hang from a tree in the Qing Dynasty, and Li Zicheng is also talking about it, but it can't be negotiated.

Because Li Zicheng's asking price is too high, he wants Datong to fight side by side with him. It was also proposed that if Taiyuan was attacked by the Qing army, Datong would send troops to Xuanfu.

How could Wang Yongji, Jiang Hao and others agree to such conditions? If they agree, won't they set themselves on fire?

Moreover, Li Zicheng suppressed many official gentry close to the Ming Dynasty in Taiyuan Mansion, and tortured and plundered in Beijing for a while, and he was already regarded as a mortal enemy by Wang Yongji, Jiang Hao and others!

Wang Yongji snorted: "Let's promise Li Zicheng...... It can be said that it has been the decree of the prince of Nanjing! ”
