Chapter 631: Trouble
Ma Du once suggested to Lao Zhu about opening border trade with the grasslands, but Lao Zhu did not take it as a deaf ear and successively opened markets on the grasslands of Hebei, Shanxi, and northern Shaanxi.
Lao Zhu was very worried that Bian Jianghui would be involved with the Mongols, but he was not worried about any collusion between his sons and the Mongols, so the mutual markets of the three places were all controlled by the royal government.
On the one hand, the imperial court used tea and grain to restrain those who were willing to submit, and on the other hand, the slaughterers with steel knives and firearms were stubborn, and there was not a single day of sporadic petty conflicts on the frontier, and there were no longer a few Mongol tribes that were wiped out overnight.
Lao Zhu has a big stick in one hand and a radish in the other, so that he is not proficient, and there are more and more Mongolians who are obedient, and the border market is becoming more and more prosperous. The place outside Juyong Pass is the largest of the three, and has become a bustling market town.
There are inns, warehouses, restaurants, and green houses, and there are Han merchants who come to sell grain, tea, and cloth, as well as Mongolian herdsmen who come to sell wool, sheepskins, and livestock.
The Han merchants here did not dare to deceive the herdsmen, and the Mongolian herdsmen did not dare to get drunk and make trouble, thinking that the elite garrisons and managers here were given for nothing? Both Han Chinese and Mongols are just for living, and no one wants to die and hang on a wooden stake for public display.
When they arrived outside the bazaar, Zhu Di and the others dismounted, and they couldn't ride horses when they entered the palace, and the prince was no exception, he took Bi Lin off his horse and ordered: "You watch the horses here, and the king will come out in two hours at most." ”
Bi Lin said: "Remember to take care of my little white, don't forget to give it grass. ”
Zhu Di smiled and said, "Your horse, how can you give your uncle's pet a name." ”
"Daddy has Xiaobai, so naturally I want to have it." Bi Lin grabbed Zhu Di's big hand, "Cousin, let's go." ”
After walking a few steps, the two heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind them, Zhu Di pulled Bi Lin to the side to dodge, and saw more than 20 horsemen flying past them and almost hit them, and then rushed directly into the market.
"The dog Tartar is reversed!" Zhu Di's face was pale, and he pulled the soldier at the direct entrance of Bi Lin, and asked sharply: "Why didn't those Tartars enter the market just now!" ”
"Who are you?" The guards obviously didn't recognize Zhu Di, but looking at his arrogant appearance, they knew that he was a big man who couldn't be provoked.
The guard next to him hurriedly said: "This His Royal Highness King Yan! ”
The soldier hurriedly bowed down: "I've seen His Royal Highness King Yan, we have stopped those Tartars just now, but Qiu Qianhu asked us to let them go again, saying that they can't be provoked!" ”
"Oh, haha...... Is there anyone here who this king can't afford to mess with? Go and call Qiu Fu to this king! ”
The soldier answered and left, and after a while, he invited a middle-aged man in his thirties to trot over, and hurriedly bowed to Zhu Di and said: "The guard of Qianhu Qiu Fu in Yanshan pays a visit to His Royal Highness King Yan!" ”
Zhu Di didn't tell him to get up and said coldly: "Qiu Fu, you have a good errand, this king got off his horse and walked when he arrived here, you dared to let a group of Tartars run around on horseback, is it that these thousands of households don't want to be it, or they don't want their heads!" Hehe...... I heard that there is a big man who can't be provoked, let's hear if this king can afford to provoke it. ”
Qiu Fu knelt on the ground and arched his hands and persuaded bitterly: "Your Highness, don't be impulsive, those Tartars you are talking about are the beloved son of King Kaiyuan!" ”
"The shit Kaiyuan King, Emperor Mengyuan gave him an empty title, and he really thinks he is a green onion!"
King Kaiyuan refers to Naha out of Liaodong, the son of Timur fled to Mobei and named Naha out as the king of Kaiyuan, anyway, it didn't cost a few dollars, Naha out was happy to accept it, and he has been vacillating between the Ming Dynasty and the Northern Yuan.
But with Deng Yudang Pingwu Sizang, Daming only had Naha out of such a threat, and in fact, Naha's life has not been easy these years. Although the Ming army did not attack on a large scale, Feng Sheng had been encroaching on his territory step by step.
There is also Liaoyang Province Pingzhang Liu Yi defected to the Ming Dynasty so that Naha out suffered heavy losses, and now he can only lead 200,000 troops to entrench near Kaiyuan to herd horses and sheep, and occasionally loot the Han people to fill in the Ming Dynasty.
Kaiyuan is the Kaiyuan of later generations, the hometown of Uncle Zhao with a pig's waist face, that is, the pimple in Tieling, which was already a big city in the northeast at that time, in order to avoid the name of Lao Zhu, it was later changed to Kaiyuan.
Perhaps realizing that Lao Zhu might have to clean himself up, Nahachu immediately began to restrain his subordinates, acting like a good baby, trying not to make Lao Zhu angry.
In fact, he was worried a lot, Lao Zhu never gave up in his heart to recruit him, this is not the end of the war, and immediately sent an envoy to recruit Naha again.
Nahachu also knew that this was his last chance, otherwise he could only flee to Mobei to eat sand, so this time he was really going to surrender, as for how to surrender and what kind of treatment in the future still has to be discussed, who called the ancestor of the family is the Mongolian Sijiemu Huali, and the face still has to be given.
Although Nahachu also surrendered in history, he surrendered only under the pressure of 200,000 Ming troops, and this time he was quite active, neither spending money nor dying, which made Lao Zhu overjoyed and allowed Feng Sheng, who was stationed in Guangning, to negotiate with him.
Naha out also took the opportunity to open his mouth, not to say that he wanted to open his mouth to benefit, and I don't know how Feng Sheng talked to him and agreed, Naha out hurriedly sent his son to pull the cattle and sheep that could not be eaten, the old skins, and the wool that had not been sold to the border market outside Juyong Pass.
Feng Sheng also wrote to Zhu Di and Xu Da to ask them to cooperate as much as possible, in the eyes of Zhu Di and Xu Da, this is simply an enemy, but they don't dare to spoil the big matter of the negotiation, and when the time comes, they will eat Lao Zhu's hanging. In order to give priority to ensuring the trade of Naha's outreach, the tea, grain, and cloth in the border market were once strained.
Zhu Di is young and vigorous and angry about this, this kind of thing is inevitable, even in later generations, isn't the yamen like a stupid dick to buy pineapples for the secession regime?
Seeing Naha's son rampant in the border market, Zhu Di felt even more angry in his heart, "Qiu Fu took your people to cut down that group of tartars for this king and hung them on the wooden Zhuangzi to show the public!" ”
Qiu Fu said with a bitter face: "How can this make it, Song Guogong also sent someone to deliver a letter, asking Weichen to ensure their safety, how dare Weichen do it." ”
Zhu Di snorted coldly and said: "Feng Sheng actually managed to the hands of this king, you are the king's person, you have your own king to bear the basket, if you resist again, you will be corrected on the spot!" ”
Qiu Futon hugged Zhu Di's ankle on the ground and said: "If the negotiation of the imperial court is delayed, Weichen will be beheaded and the family will be punished, and His Royal Highness will be punished by the emperor, please think twice!" ”
When it comes to Lao Zhu, Zhu Di's momentum immediately weakened a little, Lao Zhu is very protective of his calves, loves his sons one by one, and almost never beats them, but Zhu Di is afraid of him from the bottom of his heart, the kind in his bones.
Just as he hesitated, a small hand gently shook his arm, and his pink and handsome little face wrinkled, "Why does my cousin want to kill again, didn't you say that you will play with me, I won't go back to Beiping with you if I'm unhappy!" ”
I almost forgot that I was still following the little girl next to me, and being coquettish by Bi Lin like this, Zhu Di's anger was three points less, and he sighed and said: "That's it, that's it, just spare them today, you have to watch this group of people, if you dare to make trouble here, you don't have to be soft!" ”
He picked up Bi Lin and carried it on his shoulder, "Let's go!" Haha......"
In addition to more Mongolians, there is also a huge livestock wool trading market, in fact, it is similar to the market in the Central Plains, there are shop stalls on both sides of the street, selling all kinds of gadgets, in addition to rattles, tumbler traditional gadgets, such as rag dolls, this kind of fresh gadgets are also, look at the inferior materials and clumsy handiwork, you will know that this is not produced by the Ma family.
A dirty Mongolian girl was so fond of the black and white animal puppet that she had to pester her mother who sold milk and tofu to buy it for her, and she didn't know what attracted her to the panda puppet who cut corners and was skinny like a monkey.
"It's really pitiful, cousin, you can help her!"
"What's pitiful, haven't you seen what they have done to us Han people in the Central Plains. That's it, my sister is kind-hearted! Zhu Di threw a few copper coins to the merchant who set up the stall, "Is the cat bear like this?" It's not honest at all. ”
"Master Jun, you have wronged the villain, the puppets here are all boutiques from the shop of the Ma family in Beiping."
"Damn, the wheat pulp is about to poke out of the fine linen, and I dare to say that it is a fine product, and if you dare to ruin the reputation of the Ma family, beware of driving you out!"
Bi Lin took the panda puppet and gave it to the Mongolian girl, and said a few words of Mongolian to her, and then she came back with a few pieces of milk tofu and distributed them to the accompanying guards, and continued to wander along the street.
This bazaar is already the most prosperous place in the circle of 100 miles above the grassland, if it is compared with Yingtian, it is like a cloud and mud, there are almost no things that can enter Bi Lin's eyes, but they choose some strange things to buy.
The Mongols were able to satisfy her strange hobby, and when they saw that someone was selling stones and came over again, the Mongol recommended to Bi Lin in jerky Chinese the pebbles that could be found everywhere in the steppe, and said that these were stones that had been blessed by the Immortal Heaven and brought a hundred years of life.
Zhu Dizhi sighed that as long as he was involved in trading, even the upright Mongols would become slippery, and even the stones would dare to be sold for money. Bi Lin didn't care, she put it in a small cloth bag when she saw what she liked, anyway, it wasn't expensive for a penny.
She was picking up, and suddenly felt someone behind her pulling her pigtails and thought it was Zhu Di, "Cousin, don't pull me!" She subconsciously turned her head and saw that it was a Mongolian, eighteen or nineteen years old, the fluff on the side of her mouth had just grown, she smiled at Bi Lin, and said in Chinese with a strange accent: "I thought it was a Mongolian girl, but it turned out to be a Han girl, and she was really handsome!" Hey hey ......"
The Mongolian young man stretched out his hand to pinch Bi Lin's face as he spoke, his eyes were obscene, and his hand had not touched Bi Lin before he had a palm knife on his wrist, he slammed it back with a painful cry, and roared a Mongolian language with a hideous face, and the twenty guards behind him pulled out their scimitars, but when the muzzles of more than ten black holes, the fierce expression on his face immediately froze.
The Mongolian young man hurriedly said: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, I am the son of King Kaiyuan, the little prince Chagan, just now I was just joking with this girl, don't do it." "Naha's troops suffered a lot of losses from the Ming army, so they naturally know the power of firearms.
Zhu Di sneered, "I don't have any bullshit Kaiyuan King, what kind of little prince are you!" ”
Chagan pointed at Zhu Di and said angrily: "Dare to insult my father, what is your name, I want to see your Shangguan!" ”
A guard from the Yan Palace's mansion scolded: "There are no eyes, this is His Royal Highness the Yan King of the Ming Dynasty, and he is the largest within a radius of a few hundred miles." ”
"Uh......" Chagan was stunned and hurriedly apologized: "Chagan doesn't know if the nobles are in person, or His Highness forgives his sins!" ”
When Zhu Di saw someone more arrogant than himself, he wanted to blow his head with a nunchuck, but he didn't want to eat Lao Zhu's hanging, "Those who don't know are not guilty, this king spares you once, and when the things are sold out, get out of here, tell you that if Lao Tzu surrenders sincerely, he will be happy, don't be a bitch and set up an archway, and he has to grind and chirp like a girl." ”
For the descendants of the Mongolian Four Heroes, this is already a great insult, but his mother's situation is stronger, and this Chagan is not a reckless and ignorant teenager, he gritted his teeth and arched his hand and said: "Your Highness's words, I will definitely bring it back!" ”
"Wait, you haven't made amends to my cousin yet, do you want to leave?"
Chagan had no choice but to bow his head at Bi Lin to apologize, and Bi Lin pinched her little waist and spat, "Phew, you Mongolian scum, hurry up and stay away from Miss Ben!" ”
Chagan snorted in his nose, muttered a word in his mouth and turned to leave.
Bi Lin raised her head and said to Zhu Di: "Cousin, he scolded you Nanban just now. ”
"Really?"
Bi Lin nodded heavily and said, "Well, really, I can hear you clearly." ”
Zhu Di smiled, snatched the short gun from the mouth of the guard beside him, and pulled the trigger at Chagan...... In the smoke of gunpowder, the Mongol guards fell to the ground one after another, screaming and fleeing in all directions.
Zhu Di blew away the gunsmoke from the muzzle and handed the short gun back to the guard, touching Bi Lin's little head, "So he can't scold us in the future!" ”
Bi Lin looked at the Mongolian girl who was lying in a pool of blood with a panda puppet on the other side of the street, and nodded in a daze......
"If the child knows, he will definitely listen to Uncle Ma and Big Brother!" Sanbao knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Mu Ying, "Father take care all the way!" ”
Mu Ying helped him up and said to Mu Chun: "Don't forget, every year in the Qing Dynasty, my father returns to Dingyuan to sweep your grandmother's tomb." ”
"The child remembers, daddy goes all the way!"
Mu Ying kicked Mu Chun, "What are you going all the way to, am I going to die?" The books have been read in the dog's stomach, I see that you will not be the material for learning in the future, so if you have time, you will ask Li Wenzhong for advice on how to lead troops, and our family will lead troops to fight in the future. ”
Mu Ying turned her head to Ma Du and said: "I still say the same thing, I have to take care of Niangniang more, when I first came back, I found that Niangniang was really a lot older, but fortunately, she has looked much better recently." ”
"You still need to tell me, hurry up and get on the boat, the academy starts today, and I finally took half a day to see you off."
Mu Ying said angrily: "It's only been a few days since I met, so I can't wait to let me go, don't want such a brother." ”
