Chapter 644 - Land Cut, Indemnity, and Reconciliation
"What? Sun Zhiqi and Kong Sixi haven't surrendered to the Southern Dynasty yet? ”
Dorgon was taken aback. In the past two years, he has seen many second, third, and fourth ministers, and he has no hope for the loyalty of the Han people to the Qing Dynasty. In his mind, if Sun Zhiqi and Kong Sixi hadn't been killed, they should have jumped back to Daming by now.
"No, there is no surrender to the Southern Dynasty," Jin Zhijun said, "the two of them are still loyal slaves of my Great Qing Dynasty!" Zhu Cihong wanted to use the two of them plus Suo Zhongtang and the captured family members of the Zhenglu Banner in exchange for the Han people we captured from Qufu. ”
"Oh." Dolgon nodded, and said in his heart: It turns out that he doesn't look down on the two of them, and wants to exchange them for someone else!
"Well, so be it!" Dorgon said, "Jin Zhijun, go back at once and talk to that Zukoffa about the Fifth Grand Lama...... Wu Sangui's family members in Beijing are not slaughtered, and they are all used to exchange for the great lama! Presumably, Wu Sangui didn't dare to really kill the Great Lama, right? ”
If Wu Sangui really kills the Great Lama, Dolgon won't have to worry about it! Anyway, the Great Lama will be reincarnated, and it will be the same if he will find a Sixth Great Lama when the time comes. Now Dolgon is worried that the Great Lama will find Emperor Zhu, and Emperor Zhu is very rich!
Moreover, the third great lama of the Great Lama had a good relationship with the Ming Dynasty for two terms, and also helped the Ming Dynasty fool the Mongolian Altan Khan, greatly alleviating the tension between the Altan Khan and the Ming Dynasty, and also turned the Mongolian warriors of the Altan Khan into believers of the Buddha. In the fifteenth year of Wanli, he was also named "Duo Er Singing" (King Kong) by Mingshenzong, and was also invited to Beijing, and passed away on the way to Beijing.
With this relationship, it is difficult to ensure that the Fifth Grand Lama will not be invited to Nanjing by Emperor Zhu...... With the matchmaking of the Great Lama, Zhu Cihong may be able to contact the Khan, the leader of the alliance of the Warat Mongols, and establish the Daming-Warat Alliance!
At that time, the Great Qing Kingdom will face the dilemma of a two-front war!
Thinking of this, Dolgon said to Jin Zhijun again: "I still told Zhu Cihong about the Great Lama...... Let's just say that I contracted a disease in Qufu last year, and the medicine stone is useless, and I suspect that it was invaded by external evils, and I need the great lama to chant sutras to drive away evil spirits. Therefore, as long as the Ming Kingdom returns to the Great Lama, then everything is negotiable. ”
"Huang Ama, do you want to agree to Zhu Cihong's request?"
"Huang Ama, this is not good......"
"Huang Ama, think twice!"
He Luohui, Bo Erhui, and Ekeqin, these Dolgon's henchmen, were a little anxious when they saw him relieved. Land cession and compensation are things that lose power and humiliate the country, and they can't be promised!
Dolgon raised his hand, "Don't say anything...... You don't want to get Long and look at Shu, what were the conditions when the first emperor and Chongzhen negotiated peace? However, each monarch has its own country, with Ningyuan Shuangshupu in the middle of the soil ridge as the Ming border, Tashan as the Qing border, and Lianshan as the moderate place to carry out mutual trade. Now we say that we cut the land, but in fact? The borders of the Ming and Qing dynasties are drawn in Shandong and Henan, so what is there not to be satisfied with? ”
He Luo will remind: "Huang Ama, I'm afraid that the masters of the flags will speak!" ”
"What did they say?" Dorgon snorted, "If they want to fight, even if they send troops, I won't stop them, but my white flag, green flag, Azig's white flag, and Dodor's blue flag won't send troops." ”
Listening to what Dolgon said, He Luohui, Bolhui, and Ekeqin had nothing to say, but Fan Wencheng, who didn't speak just now, spoke, "Huang Ama, the slave thinks we should add another one - open a mutual market!" ”
"There is a mutual market," Dolgon was stunned, "isn't there a mutual market on Haisha Island at the mouth of Dagu?" ”
"Huang Ama, this mutual market is not good for our Great Qing Kingdom."
"Disadvantage?" Dorgon asked, "Where's the disadvantage?" ”
Fan Wencheng said: "It is not good for coastal defense, as soon as Haisha Island is near Dagukou, the Jinyi guard of the Ming Kingdom can disguise itself as maritime merchants to enter and exit freely and peep at the defense near Dagukou; Second, the mutual market is placed outside the mouth of Dagu, our nine imperial merchants do not need to go to sea, and they can make money while sitting at the door of their homes, while the maritime merchants of the Ming Kingdom have come from thousands of miles away, and over time, the power of the Ming Kingdom on the sea is getting stronger and stronger, and it is difficult for us to even go to sea. ”
"Where should I put the mutual market?" Dorgon asked.
"On Shamen Island off the coast of Penglai," Fan Wencheng said, "the mutual market is jointly managed by the two countries, and we have nine imperial merchants on the island to open a merchant hall in the Qing Dynasty, nine merchant houses on the Ming side, and another English and Koreans to open a merchant hall each, a total of 20 merchant houses." As for the route from Shamen to Dagukou, only the nine imperial merchants are allowed to operate. ”
Dolgon thought about it, and also felt that what Fan Wencheng said made some sense, "It's okay...... That's it! Fan Wencheng, this time you will follow Jin Zhijun on a trip to Dengzhou. If Zhu Cihong agrees to the conditions we add, then discuss with him about signing and drawing a pledge! ”
......
"What? Dolgon was evil in Qufu and wanted the great lama to recite the scriptures? Okay, okay...... As long as Wu Sangui is willing to release people, it will be fine. ”
"That envoy thanked the Ming Emperor for Emperor Amma......"
“...... Open the Shamen Island Mutual Market? Salmon Island is too small, how can it be placed in the mutual market? But let's open it at Lushunkou...... The Lushunkou place is large, and the harbor is good, so it does not freeze in winter and can prevent typhoons in summer. Only by leaving the mutual market there can you do business with peace of mind! As for the English and Korean merchants, hehe, since Lushun has opened a mutual market, that is, all countries can come to trade, and the English and Koreans are naturally among the countries. ”
"It's okay to change it to Lushunkou, as long as your country doesn't feel troublesome, it will become a ......"
Danya Mountain, Penglai Palace. Emperor Zhu was discussing with Fan Wencheng the details of what later generations called the "Treaty of Dengzhou in the Ming and Qing Dynasties", which, in later generations, was beneficial to both Zhu Cihong and Dolgon.
So the talks went very smoothly, and after only a few rounds, they had basically reached an agreement.
Emperor Zhu didn't care too much about the two items added by Dolgon - the big lama was used by Wu Sangui in exchange for the lives of his family, and the people were not in Zhu Cihong's hands. And Zhu Cihong didn't plan to join forces with the Heshute Khanate, if it was the Junggar Khanate, he would probably be tempted, and the strength of the Heshute Khanate should be forgotten. Let's stay in Tibet and Qinghai honestly!
As for moving the Haisha Island mutual market to Lushunkou, it will not be harmful to Zhu Cihong. The faster the development of Jinzhou, the more stable the foundation of Daming in Liaodong!
Once you're done talking about business, it's time to talk about personal matters.
Emperor Zhu asked with a smile: "Fan Wencheng, did Dolgon say when he would send Gege?" ”
"Gege is still young," Fan Wencheng smiled, "I'm only eleven years old this year...... But he is not old enough to be able to leave the cabinet. ”
"I know, I know," Zhu Cihong smiled, "I know that Dongor is still young, and I am not in a hurry to marry her, but I have a lot of red tape in the court, and Dongguo has to learn them one by one." And...... The water and soil in the southeast are very different from those in the north, and smallpox is prevalent. Dong Gu has to get used to it slowly, and I have to arrange for Lang Zhong to give her pox.
So I wanted to ask her to move to Dengzhou as soon as possible to live, this Penglai Palace, which I built for Dongguo. In addition, I also ordered people to build a summer palace for Donggu in the old mountain north of the Yingtianfu River, so that Donggu could avoid the summer heat of Nanjing. When the Laoshan Summer Palace was repaired, he let Donggu go south from Dengzhou and stay in the Summer Palace. ”
Pukou Old Mountain is the remnant of the Huaiyang Mountains, the mountain is not high, but the vegetation is dense, there is a large area of forests, and it is located in the north of the Yangtze River, so it is naturally not as hot as the city of Nanjing on the south bank of the Yangtze River. Zhu Cihong asked people to build a palace in Laoshan, but not for Donggu Gege, but for himself to find a cleaner place.
He originally came to see Zhongshan, but because Zhongshan was occupied by Zhu Yuanzhang, and Emperor Chongzhen and Zhu Cihong himself had to "live there" for a long time in the future, it was a bit unlucky, so he built a palace in Laoshan instead.
In addition, Zhu Cihong also planned to enclose the Laoshan area as a royal hunting ground and horse farm - after the breeding and breeding of folded ears horses was put on track, Zhu Cihong was ready to use the Laoshan hunting ground to bring the horse hunting lifestyle to the new nobles of the Ming Dynasty.
Only when the nobles raised the folded ears together, the number of folded ears could be truly guaranteed.
