Dorgon left the palace of Prince Li, and wandered the streets. He is now an idle clan, without any authority, and the last time he entered the customs, it was true that many soldiers of the Eight Banners died, so many of the nobles in the Eight Banners did not want to see him. He didn't have much to do now other than help Azig and Duoduo with ideas.

However, he happened to meet Wu Sangui, who was talking to Fan Yongdou on the street.

"Are you telling the truth?" Wu Sangui was a little out of shape, and his voice was a little high.

Fan Yongdou said seriously: "Then there is still a fake? The whole Shanxi knows about this matter, and it can't be wrong. Ruhou Liu Zongmin is indeed the head of your concubine Chen Xing. ”

"Dog thief! I swear to you! Wu Sangui roared angrily, and the pedestrians on the road stopped to watch. However, when they saw the soldiers who were waiting around, they didn't dare to do much, and hurriedly walked away by themselves.

Fan Yongdou saw that Wu Sangui was emotionally agitated, and he was afraid that he would suffer from the disaster of the pond fish, so he immediately resigned. And Wu Sangui still had some sense, he didn't do anything drastic, and he left with a black face.

Although he had long known the news that Chen Yuanyuan was occupied by Liu Zongmin and that his entire family was killed by Liu Zongmin, it was passed on to him by Li Yan, and he didn't dare to believe it easily. Today he came to Fan Yongdou to confirm this matter, although Fan Yongdou is doing business in Zhangjiakou, but his hometown is from Shanxi, he should know the real situation. Unexpectedly, Fan Yongdou was called to Prince Li's Mansion, so he waited here.

At this time, knowing that the bad news was true, he had no other thoughts than anger. The hatred of killing his father and taking his wife, it all happened to him, how could he not be angry. What he wants to do most now is to break Liu Zongmin's body into ten thousand pieces!

But he had just walked for a while when he was stopped by a man.

"King Pingxi," the man said, "My master invites you to come to the house to talk." ”

"This king still has something to do, I'll bother another day!" Although Wu Sangui was angry at this time, but after all, this was Shengjing, and he could only suppress his anger and say a word to this servant who didn't know that it was the prince's mansion.

The man was unmoved, still holding his fists and said, "Don't forget, who gave the prince's lord." ”

As soon as Wu Sangui heard this, he knew that it was Dolgon who was looking for him. Although Dolgon does not have any position and title now, but with two white flags as a backing, he, the king of Pingxi, can only nod his head in response.

When he arrived at Dolgon's mansion, the anger in his heart was suppressed a lot. Kneeling down and said, "Wu Sangui, meet Prince Rui." ”

Dorgon smiled and said, "King Pinxi, please." I'm just an idle clan, and I'm still a prince. ”

"In the eyes of the minions, you will always be the Prince Rui of the Qing Dynasty." Wu Sangui complimented.

Dolgon's smile was a little stiff, forever a prince? The throne used to be so close to him, but now it was so far away from him.

He smiled and said, "Your people have also shaved their heads, and you basically can't get specific news from Guannai. But that Fan Yongdou is just a businessman, and he doesn't have to believe what he says. There are many things that are spread falsely, so don't be misled by false news. ”

"The slave obeys the teachings of the prince." Wu Sangui clenched his fists and agreed.

Dolgon could see that Wu Sangui was not right. However, he also knows that in the face of this deep hatred, there really can't be too many demands.

"Now, Li Yan is our biggest enemy, and let the others go." Dolgon said: "After Li Yan is settled, for Li Zicheng, Liu Zongmin and others, whether they really do anything or not, I promise you that I can let you kill them with your own hands." ”

Wu Sangui also heard what Dolgon meant, whether it was sincere or not, an attitude must be expressed: "Slave Prince Xie Rui." ”

Dolgon was a little satisfied, and then suddenly asked, "I heard that the king of Pingxi has been buying iron ore recently?" ”

"Ah, yes." Wu Sangui was a little confused at first, and then immediately reacted: "The slave just wants to cast some three-eyed guns for my sons and daughters." ”

Dolgon sneered and said, "I asked directly, so King Pingxi doesn't have to hide it." Tell me, how's it going? Is it already ready to start producing? ”

"The slave doesn't know what Prince Rui means by what he said." Wu Sangui continued to quibble.

Dolgon said coldly: "Handcuffs, the kind of handcuffs used by Li Yan's cavalry!" Is it already ready for production?! ”

Although they fought against Li Yan's cavalry first, their contempt for firearms other than artillery meant that none of them wanted to capture Li Yan's cavalry's firearms. When they remembered, they didn't have a chance. But Wu Sangui has made a breakthrough here, and he is already ready to start casting.

Wu Sangui couldn't hide it, so he had to confess: "The craftsmen just said to try it first, and as for whether it can be produced, they can't say for sure." ”

Dolgon lightly instructed: "Let your craftsmen come to Shengjing with fire guns and study with the craftsmen here." If there are more people, it will be natural to be able to make the fire gun faster. ”

Of course, Wu Sangui would not agree, he immediately said: "This is not good. The three of us had an agreement with Prince Rui, and we were also allowed by the Qing court to live freely between Ningyuan and the mountains and seas, and the court was not restricted. ”

"Why, do you think that I don't have a knighthood now, and my words don't work?" Dolgon asked with a sneer.

Wu Sangui explained: "The minion didn't mean that, but this agreement was indeed written, so there was nothing wrong with what the minion said. ”

Dorgon thought for a moment, but did not continue to persecute. Now that the entire Qing Kingdom is in a fragile balance, if one is not careful, it is possible that the internal chaos will start first, and he will not dare to stab Wu Sangui too much. So he retreated: "Well, I remember, there is such a rule." Since you don't want the craftsmen to come, send ten firecrackers. The imperial court cannot do without such a sharp weapon. ”

Wu Sangui didn't want to give so much at one time, he still had to leave a team of personal soldiers who equipped him first. He immediately explained: "Prince Huirui, there are not so many minions. The minions only picked up seven in total, and the craftsmen dismantled one, and five of them were given to Prince Rui to play with. ”

Dorgon finally nodded: "Okay, it's decided, you have to send the fire gun over as soon as possible, and make it earlier, so that you can attack the pass one day earlier." ”

Wu Sangui hesitated for a moment, and begged: "Can you let the two craftsmen come with you, if the fire gun is made here first, let the two of them learn the craft." ”

"Yes," Dolgon agreed at once, but also on the condition that "I will also send two men to your workshop to communicate with each other." ”

"The minion completely agrees, and sends someone to send five firearms as soon as possible."

Dorgon was relieved at this point. If Li Yan can be defeated with a firecracker, then it is really possible for the Qing Dynasty to dominate the world. And if he offers such a good thing, not to mention the restoration of the prince's title, he should also get the title of the duke. This kind of public and private thing is what he wants to do most now.
