Forbidden City, Xianyang Palace

Zhu Houzhao was busy at this time.

In front of him stood an old minister, it was Zhang Jun, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and his conversation with Zhu Houzhao was naturally the fact of negotiation.

Although Zhu Houzhao is also very concerned about the investigation of the case, and there is a commotion outside, the affairs of the court still have to be done.

For the imperial court, the most serious thing at the moment was the negotiation with Horqin. Will Da Ming use force at this time? In addition, it is also related to the economic interests of countless people.

Everyone is watching this negotiation.

Since this matter is in charge of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince Zhu Houzhao, Zhu Houzhao naturally wants to continue to participate.

Yesterday, the people of Horqin had already arrived in the capital.

As the main person in charge of this negotiation, Zhang Jun, the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, has already met the people of Horqin. He is here to report this matter to Zhu Houzhao today.

Glancing at Zhang Jun, Zhu Houzhao said with a smile: "It seems that Aiqing is in a good mood." ”

Zhang Jun stroked his beard with a smile, and said with a smile: "The minister met the people of Horqin today. They are very deferential, and they can see that they are afraid of our Daming. In this way, it seems that my famous country is rich and the people are strong, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has made great contributions to it. The minister congratulated His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. ”

For Zhang Jun to shoot his own sycophants, Zhu Houzhao is already a little used to it.

I used to think that he was stammering himself, but after getting along for a period of time, Zhu Houzhao found that this guy is such a person, he is smiling in three points when he meets, and what he says is always just right.

It's a sycophant, but it doesn't bore you. I have to say that this is also a kind of ability.

Zhang Jun's ability to be promoted so quickly must have something to do with this reason.

But Zhu Houzhao will not be fooled and confused by him. This guy is an old fox, if he believes him, why should he be fooled?

Zhu Houzhao said directly: "Then there should be no problem with this matter, right?" ”

"Horqin is scared to death now, and they are now afraid that the imperial court will destroy them. I heard that the generals of the military are still writing to Your Majesty, thinking that the people of Horqin are barbarians, and they have instigated Duoyan Sanwei to invade the Ming Dynasty before, so they should be taught a lesson at this time. ”

When Zhang Jun said this, he cautiously looked at Zhu Houzhao, as if he wanted to see if His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had any other ideas.

Regarding Zhang Jun's snooping, Zhu Houzhao was a little helpless. In fact, this is not the first person to do so.

The reason for this is also known to Zhu Houzhao. The peace talks with Horqin were proposed by themselves, and it was also their own idea to accept their surrender, and even this time he was presiding over the matter.

At this stall, someone wrote a book to continue to attack Horqin, obviously not giving himself face to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. What's more, such people still appear in the army.

Now all the Ming officials think that the army is under the control of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, but in fact, Zhu Houzhao knows that if he really takes power by himself, then things will become troublesome.

This time, I actually instigated it, and I told the people below that I could express my opinions as much as I wanted.

In fact, if Zhu Houzhao hadn't said such things, no one in the military would have dared to stand up against him. His prestige in the army was so high that both old-school nobles and new-looking officers would listen to him.

In doing so, he is telling the outside world that the military is not his own word.

"It's understandable that the generals in the army want to fight. Only when there is a war can they be given official positions, and if they want to be promoted, they naturally have to seek war. This is not surprising. Zhu Houzhao said expressionlessly, as if he didn't care much about this matter.

This made Zhang Jun a little surprised. He had the same thoughts as the rest of the court, that is, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had too much control over the army, and this time he was afraid that he would establish his authority over the army.

If this is the case, perhaps someone will impeach His Royal Highness the Crown Prince

The most important thing is that many people in the court are afraid that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and His Majesty will have a rift. In that case, the courtiers didn't know what to do.

Zhu Houzhao did not want to strengthen his authority in the army, but wanted to weaken his authority in the army.

He is not the emperor now, as long as the authority in the army is secretly very high, there is no need to let people know that the army is under this prince.

This means that his father has no other sons, and no one competes with him for the position of prince, otherwise someone would have impeached him a long time ago.

"You don't have to worry about what the generals in the military think, that's not your business. All you have to do now is talk to Korqin. They must agree to all the conditions offered by the palace; If they don't agree, then Hongu will bring someone to beat them. ”

"You don't have to keep arguing with them. Accept it or wait for death, they have no second way to go. Zhu Houzhao's voice was a little cold.

His words were beating Zhang Jun, and he did think so.

A Korqin doesn't involve much energy for him now. To put it bluntly, Korqin is no longer in his eyes

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, there is something you may need to know." Zhang Jun spoke again.

Zhu Houzhao nodded, and then asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"The minister heard some news, it seems that Dayan Khan also wanted to submit to the court, and asked the court to give him a title." Zhang Jun said cautiously.

After hearing the news, Zhu Houzhao immediately smiled, and said a little helplessly: "The court of the Ming Dynasty is like a house with a broken wind, and it really can't hide any news." It is true that there is such a thing, but for the time being, accurate news has not yet arrived. You can leave this matter alone for now, let's talk about Horqin first. ”

Regarding Dayan Khan's surrender to the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Houzhao did not feel any surprises.

This kind of thing doesn't happen once or twice, if you can't win, or when there is a crisis, the Mongolian tribes come to Daming to ask for surrender, which is also a regular operation.

The basic routine is to ask Daming to give him an official, express surrender to Daming, and then promise not to invade Daming, and ask the two sides to exchange markets at the border.

Then, when they have recovered their strength, they will turn around and call you.

This kind of routine is too much, in the past, the border army of the Ming Dynasty was relatively weak, and it was more laborious to fight, and the imperial court was also worried about excessive consumption, so they basically agreed.

But Zhu Houzhao is not ready to agree now, what qualifications does Dayan Khan have to negotiate with the soldiers?

In Zhu Hou's care, Dayan Khan obviously had internal problems and wanted to seek help from Daming.

If you want to make yourself agree, I am afraid that you will have to pay the price of satisfying yourself.
