Wei Zhongxian reluctantly took a stool and put it in front of him, and Huang Taiji thanked him and sat down. Zhu Youxiao looked at his unhurried appearance, and couldn't help but secretly think that he was worthy of a generation of heroes, and with this calmness and calmness, although he was his enemy, he still admired it a little.

He shook his head and threw out some of the non-existent. He lit a cigarette, took a puff and spit it out, and then said with a smile: "Four Belle has always been loyal to me, but why can't he help it this time?" It's a pity, I was going to send you back to Jianzhou to lead the remnants of the Jurchens, but now I can't. ”

Huang Taiji smiled and said: "The things used by Your Majesty are very interesting, I don't know if I can give them to the criminal ministers to try." ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled and said, "Of course, come on, bring a cigarette to Sibeile." ”

A little eunuch stepped forward, took a cigarette from the emperor's hand, came to Huang Taiji with a box of matches, inserted the cigarette into his mouth, and then struck the match, lit the cigarette and retreated.

Huang Taiji skillfully took a puff of smoke, exhaled a large amount of smoke, and said with a smile: "Your Majesty's smoke is much better than the hookah that the sinner has smoked before. ”

Zhu Youxiao said: "If Sibeile likes it, I can give you a few boxes." ”

Huang Taiji smiled bitterly and said, "How long can the sinners smoke?" The guilty minister did such a rebellious thing, and he did not dare to ask His Majesty for forgiveness, but only hoped that His Majesty would not implicate other Jurchens after the death of the guilty minister. ”

Zhu Youxiao said with a smile: "This doesn't need to be bothered by Sibeiler, but I don't know a little, Sibeile's participation in this conspiracy, what is the benefit to you and your Jurchens?" You Jurchens have been defeated, and even if I die, you will have no chance to turn over. ”

Huang Taiji said: "The criminal minister has something unclear, His Majesty seems to be very jealous of the criminal minister, and he does not pay much attention to other Jurchen generals. ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled silently, he couldn't say that he was jealous of him because he knew from the original history that he was a wise and heroic lord.

Huang Taiji continued: "After the criminal minister was captured, if I think about it carefully, the biggest difference between the criminal minister and others is that he is familiar with Sinology, and he has always emphasized the need to reuse Han people. My Jurchen has a limited number of people, although all the people are soldiers, how can they compete with the tens of millions of people in the Ming Dynasty. ”

"The criminal wants to come, only by using the learning of the Han people, my Jurchen can attract a large number of Han people to my use. And as long as the Han people can be used, it is not impossible to occupy Liaodong and even covet the Central Plains. It's a pity that Your Majesty is invincible, and he actually destroyed my Jurchen, and the criminal minister also became a prisoner. ”

"Although there is a big difference in size between the Jurchen and the Ming Dynasty, all along, in the land of Liaodong, my Jurchen has always had a great advantage, until two years after His Majesty ascended the throne, he retrained a guard, and my Jianzhou began to be in decline, until it was finally defeated by the Ming Dynasty. Therefore, the sinner thinks that this is the work of His Majesty. ”

"The courtiers of the Ming Dynasty have always despised the Jurchens, and they have led to discord among the generals and commanders with civilian officials and military generals, giving us the Jurchens an opportunity to take advantage of. After His Majesty ascended the throne, he was completely different, and he actually commanded the army with military generals, and attached importance to the use of firearms and artillery, so that he had an advantage in the battle with the Jurchens. But in the eyes of the guilty ministers, this is only formed by His Majesty alone with authoritarian suppression. If Your Majesty goes, then the Ming Dynasty Wenchen will inevitably rebound and still play the previous routine of using Wen Yuwu to play, then even if my Jurchen withdraws from the side wall, there will still be a time to return to Liaodong. ”

Zhu Youxiao smiled, it seems that not only does he value Huang Taiji, but Huang Taiji also attaches great importance to himself, and he is valued by such a famous person in history, Zhu Youxiao is also a little proud.

He smiled and said, "So the four Belles must kill me, and then they can seek a glimmer of life for the Jurchen?" ”

Huang Taiji knew that after the plan failed, he would no longer have a chance. So he smiled lightly: "The only one who is feared by the criminal ministers is His Majesty." If successful, the offender should have a chance to return to statehood. Together, we may not have a chance to make a comeback. It's a pity that providence is like this, only sighing. ”

Zhu Youxiao nodded and said: "Indeed, if your conspiracy succeeds, it may make the Ming Dynasty turbulent, and those rotten Confucians are afraid that they will return to the old way in a hurry." However, in my opinion, even if you succeed, the failure of the statehood is inevitable. At that time, Li Chengliang raised tigers and caused trouble, which led to the rise of Jianzhou, and this matter has become the consensus of the Ming people. In my absence, the civil officials may indeed suppress the generals, but they will definitely not give you a chance to rise again. As long as you are outside the border wall, you will not be able to get help from the Mongols, and you will end up in Jianzhou. ”

Huang Taiji nodded and said: "Your Majesty clearly sees that the establishment of the state is also the time and the momentum. Relying only on the Jurchens, without the help of the Mongols and Han Chinese, we would not have had a chance to confront the Ming Dynasty. Although there are many corrupt Confucians in the Ming Dynasty, they at least know how to use fire guns and artillery to deal with Jianzhou. And even if the criminal minister goes back, it is impossible to have the opportunity to sit on the throne of sweat, in order to replace the spirit of goodness, it is indeed difficult for us to build a state to turn over. ”

Zhu Youxiao looked at Huang Taiji, and then said, "I am not a hero, and I don't want to fight heroes. Since you are involved in the assassination plot, you will be the first to die. Do you have anything else to say? ”

Huang Taiji sighed and said: "The criminal minister already knew this result, and as soon as the criminal minister died, His Majesty could add all the people to be eliminated to the charge of colluding with the criminal minister, so this matter is of great benefit to Your Majesty." The criminal minister just wants to ask His Majesty for mercy, the Jianzhou Jurchen can fight for His Majesty, please don't kill them all. ”

Zhu Youxiao waved his hand and said, "You don't need to say this, I can't do the thing of destroying a clan." But Jianzhou is harmful to Liaodong, so I want to forgive you like this, it is impossible. The Jianzhou Jurchens will be the vanguard of our development of the Tunguska region, and only by showing your loyalty with practical actions will I consider accepting you into the Ming Dynasty. If that's all there is to it, then I'll do it. ”

Huang Taiji didn't know what the Tunguska region meant, but he thought that it should refer to the fishskin Jurchen place north and east of Jianzhou, but he didn't know that the place that Zhu Youxiao wanted to occupy was much larger. But I'm going to die anyway, so I can't care so much. So he said: "The guilty minister is actually very sorry for Your Majesty, but he is in prison and is not good at saluting, please forgive Your Majesty." I hope that in the next life, I will not encounter a Ming monarch like Your Majesty as an opponent, and the criminal minister only has such a request. ”

Zhu You proofread Wei Zhongxian and said: "Behead this person immediately, hand over the head to Lin Dan Khan, and let him pass it on to the various ministries that were once good friends with Jianzhou." Jianzhou is about to be destroyed, and the Mongols will be sad to see the rabbit die and the fox will die. ”
