Not only Sha Mi Chagan, but even Chen Di was a little puzzled. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info waited until Sha Mi Chagan and Dehuan had gone out, Chen Di asked: "Your Majesty, although time is urgent, there are always a few words, why didn't Your Majesty inform them that the Ming Dynasty would actively guard against Timur's affairs?" ”

Yun Xi had to say: "Chen Qing, now it is Yili who asks for it from Daming, not Daming who asks for it, and Yili who asks for people in it is much more eager than Daming, and only then is he more willing to accept Daming's conditions." Although Sha Michagan is old, he is a young man after all, and he can't endure it for long. ”

Moreover, according to his memory, Yunxi knew that Timur began his crusade in 1404 and died on the road the following year, and the news brought by the Mongols also proved that he was probably fighting against the Turks or the Great Cannibals in Anatolia, so Yunxi still had time to fight the Mongols.

However, Yun Xi did not expect that in the far northwest, there were already people who wanted to reach an agreement with the Mongols.

================

Night has fallen in the capital by the sea, but in the far northwest, the sun still hangs high in the sky, only slightly to the west.

At this time, in the city of Shazhou, there were two kings sitting together sipping the wine of the Western Regions, and they were talking to each other from time to time.

One of the middle-aged men said in Mongolian dialect: "Your Royal Highness the King of Qin, I have promised to assist your army in capturing Hami, so that you can settle in the place you call the Western Regions, what are you not satisfied with?" ”

This person is the monarch of Yili Jiangli, the descendant of the Golden Family, the black son of fire. In order to better negotiate with Daming, he took the risk to come to Shazhou in person.

Zhu Shangbing, who was only twenty years old, took a sip of the wine in the cup in his hand, the wine was very delicious, especially the wine made from grapes from the Western Regions, which was very sweet. But his mood was not as sweet as the wine in the glass.

Of course he was very happy to be able to get Hami at the lowest cost, and even Yun Xi would never object to him accepting Hami. They had already set a plan to capture Hami two years ago, and now they also have some strength, and they are just in time to send troops to capture Hami.

But the Black Flame puts forward a series of conditions. The rest of the conditions were fine, but the black son proposed to marry his granddaughter, who had just been born less than a year ago, to Zhu Shangbing's eldest son, Zhu Zhiyan (geng).

If it's just a concubine, as the future monarch of the Qin Domain, it is normal to have many concubines, and Zhu Shangbing himself has agreed to marry a daughter of the black son fire as a side concubine; However, the condition proposed by the Black Son Fire Scholar was obviously not just as a concubine, but as a concubine, or the queen of the future Qin domain.

Zhu Shangbing himself is actually no stranger to the Mongols, his mother-in-law Wang is the sister of the Northern Yuan general Wang Baobao, and Zhu Shangbing himself often saw his mother-in-law when he was a child.

(According to traditional feudal etiquette, a person can only have one wife, so Zhu Shangbing is a concubine, and his mother Deng is a second concubine.) However, the majority of Confucian scholars, out of rejection of Yidi, acquiesced in him as his son-in-law. ）

But Zhu Shangbing remembered that his father's relationship with his mother-in-law was not good. For as long as he can remember, his father rarely saw his mother-in-law, and even when they did, they had little to say. When Zhu Shangbing went to visit his mother-in-law, he always saw her silently looking at the north, not knowing what he was thinking. Then after hearing his voice, he turned around and said something to him.

His biological mother, Deng, respected her very much, and would tell him in private that she would sometimes go to see her mother-in-law. Zhu Shangbing also often met with his mother-in-law until he was sent to the capital to raise with other princes.

When he saw his mother-in-law again, it was time for his father to die of illness, and the eunuch who accompanied him took out his grandfather's decree and ordered his mother-in-law to be buried.

Hearing the will of the funeral, his biological mother did not cry like an ordinary woman, but she was also extremely sad. But when Zhu Shangbing looked at his mother-in-law, he saw that she was extremely calm.

When he hanged himself at the end, he also heard his grandmother whisper something in Mongolian. The palace maids and eunuchs present didn't understand what she meant, but Zhu Shangbing, who had been taught by her and was proficient in Mongolian, knew the meaning of that sentence: Big brother, we can finally reunite.

Therefore, although Zhu Shangbing does not have the blood of the Mongols in his body, his understanding of the Mongols is far above that of other Ming clansmen. Therefore, when he learned that Yunxi intended to be a vassal in the northwest, Mao recommended himself, because he was confident that no one would be better at dealing with the Mongols than him.

But Zhu Shangbing is still very entangled in whether to agree to this condition of the black child firer.

To tell the truth, Zhu Shangbing himself didn't care that his son married a Mongolian woman as his wife, which was actually only good for them to pacify the Western Regions: a daughter-in-law of a golden family could let his descendants also have the blood of the golden family, which was more conducive to the submission of the Mongols.

But Zhu Shangbing was worried about Yunxi's reaction. Confucianism has always opposed marrying foreign daughters, and the Han family in Hedong during the Tang Dynasty refused to marry the princess of the Li and Tang royal families, making Li Shimin angry half to death. However, the latter concern is more important: that is, Yun Xi's tolerance for the strength of the Qin domain.

The confluence of the Qin domain and the Mongols may speed up the Qin domain's conquest of the Western Regions, causing the strength of the Qin domain to exceed the control of the central government, and whether Yun Xi can accept this Zhu Shangbing is not sure.

After being silent for a long time, Zhu Shangbing said to the black fireman: "Brother black, I still don't dare to accept your last condition without authorization. ”

The black child fire man said with some annoyance: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin, my conditions are already very generous, but you still refuse my granddaughter to marry your son, do you look down on our Mongolian Golden Family!" ”

Zhu Shangbing took a sip of the wine in the glass, stood up and said to the black son, "Not really, it's just," he said with a wry smile: "I am different from you, you can not obey the orders of the Great Khan, at least you can decide for yourself to marry your son and daughter-in-law, but we Han people are different." This matter can only be decided by His Majesty, who is far away in the capital. ”

The black firefighter looked at him as if he was not fake, and some believed his words. The Black Flame Man then said, "Then wait for the news from the capital of the Ming Kingdom." Fortunately, I also told Shami Chagan about this matter. ”

=========================

There was nothing to say at the banquet of the ministers that night, Xie Jin, as the world's number one talent, showed his talents, and compared everyone present. But fortunately, he is there, and the envoy sent by the Korean State this time is also very literate, except for Xie Jin, the Ming officials in the DPRK are not as good as him, or in the end, Xie Jin turned the tide and won back face for the Ming Dynasty.

However, although tonight's fighting poems were very interesting and exciting, Yun Xi only paid a little attention, and he was still observing the envoys sent by various countries, especially the envoys of Yili and Wara.

He saw that Sha Michagan was eating in a very restrained manner, although it could be seen from his expression that tonight's food was probably something he had never tasted, but he was very restrained, and he stopped when he was full. Even the dejoy around him is not greedy.

'Definitely a tough guy to deal with! Yun Xi sighed.

On the second and third days, Yun Xi was very calm and did not send anyone to talk to them about Timur's crusade.

It wasn't until the fourth day of the first lunar month on the fourth day that Shami Chagan finally couldn't help it, and took the initiative to find Yang Ben, the host and guest of the Ministry of Rites, and asked, "When did you start talking about Timur's Eastern Crusade?" ”

Yang Ben was secretly happy in his heart, but he said quietly on his face: "Your Royal Highness the Prince, this is a matter decided by His Majesty the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty, and it is not up to me to decide a small Langzhong." ”

"It's the first month of the year, according to our Ming custom, it's a time of rest for the year, and it is estimated that Your Majesty plans to talk about this matter after the first month."

Sha Micha said urgently: "Although Timur is now fighting in the west, the preparations for this battle should start early!" Prepare one day early, the preparation will be sufficient, the possibility of defeating Timur will increase by one point, and the possibility of the border people of the Ming Dynasty being bullied by Timur's people will be one point smaller, how can you be so slack! ”

In fact, although Sha Michagan said such a thing, he also understood that at this time, the northwest was in a cold and snowy winter, even if Da Ming wanted to prepare in winter, it was unlikely, and it was not a big problem to delay it for a few days.

But Shami Chagan just wanted to start the talks early and end the talks early so that he could return to his country.

And the reason why Sha Michagan returned in such a hurry was not that he was in a hurry, nor was it that Da Ming's hospitality was inadequate. After Sha Michagan stayed in the capital of Daming for so many days, he found that even the most ordinary commoner in the capital, his enjoyment was above that of the ordinary nobles in Yili Jiangli, not to mention that the treatment given to him was according to the county king of Daming, which was definitely very generous.

But Shami Chagan just wanted to return to his country immediately.

Sha Mi Chagan is really afraid of Daming. He found that the habits he had adhered to for more than ten years were gradually unable to continue, and he enjoyed all kinds of luxurious things that he had only heard from his elders in his hometown, and the self-discipline he had always been proud of gradually became useless.

Therefore, he was very frightened and very scared, so he wanted to escape from the capital of the Ming Dynasty immediately and return to a place he was familiar with.

Shami Chagan didn't care what Yang Ben said at this time, and directly clarified Yili's conditions and said: "We, the Chagatai Khanate, are willing to give Hami to the Ming Dynasty, including all the people there, as long as the Ming Dynasty agrees: send no less than 200,000 troops to the northwest to fight against Timur,......, and allow our family to intermarry with the Ming royal family." ”

"My father is willing to marry one daughter to His Majesty and one daughter to His Royal Highness King Qin. In addition, my daughter is married to the eldest son of His Royal Highness the King of Qin. ”

Yang Ben was taken aback, and was stunned for a moment before saying: "In this case, I will immediately report this matter to His Majesty the Emperor of our country, and His Royal Highness the Prince, please be calm for a while." Then Yang Ben left the hall quickly.

Half an hour later, Yang Ben came to Yun Xi and informed Yun Xi of the conditions that Sha Mi Cha Gan said.
