Chapter 309: If you drop the chain, you will cut off your head

"Don't perfunctory me, you little rabbit cub, this is a serious matter explained by the Lord of Long Live Lord, and this matter represents the dignity of the imperial court." Listening to the tone of what he said, Zhang Whale was not at ease.

Besides, think about the set of clothes that the emperor rewarded him, it is indeed the level of the prince's expedition, and his current car is this level, but it is not a large car for the expedition, but a small car for transportation, which lacks many decorations that represent the royal style, which can be decorated at any time.

He didn't know all the supplies for the honor guard, it should be about the same, he had found some people who were familiar with the use of these instruments, although they had not rehearsed carefully, it was estimated that there would be no problem with pretending to tinker a few times.

The maid and the maiko can also be solved, Xiao Xueyi's sisters can bring half of it, and those who are good at singing and dancing are no problem, Li Xiangjun's subordinates are more of this kind of maiko, just pull up the one who performs the neon clothes and feathers every day.

But considering that these girls are following, other problems will come, not to mention eating and dressing, etc., even sleeping and bathing at night will be very troublesome.

What is the most precious thing in the desert, not cattle and sheep or even gold and silver, but clear water, these girls have to take a bath every day, how much water does it take, not to mention bathing, even washing hair every day needs a lot of water.

Forget it, anyway, if there are more lice and don't bite, there are already more than a hundred burdens, and it is not a big deal to have more than twenty more, the problem of clear water will give the Tatars a headache, anyway, if they enter the outside of the plug, they will have to be responsible for supply.

Zhang Whale explained a lot to him, all of which were all kinds of etiquette issues, such as how to deal with the king of Alta when he saw him, neither humble nor arrogant, and he also showed that he was the prince of the Heavenly Empire, and the other party was just the king of a small barbarian country, etc.

Besides, with a wry smile, isn't this looking for someone to cut off their heads?

During the Jiajing period, because the Tatar envoy was unruly and roared in the court, he was directly pulled out and beheaded, and because of this incident, the Tatar invasion of the interior was triggered, all the way directly to the city of Beijing, and the Jiajing Emperor was so angry that he beheaded the head of the military department to apologize to the people.

At that time, it was still Yan Song's ruler, under his auspices, signed a mutual market treaty with the Tatars, and opened the mutual market in several places such as Datong Xuanhua, but the Tatars lost too much because of this invasion, and the interests of the mutual market were far from making up for the losses.

Not to be outdone, the court often sent troops out to harass herdsmen, robbed herdsmen and sheep, burned pastures, poisoned water, and so on.

Moreover, the standard set for himself is not humble or arrogant, and he treats each other as equals as a chase, rather than putting on an arrogant posture of the Heavenly Empire. It's not that he's afraid of death, but he thinks it's not necessary at all, if he really wants to put on the head of the Heavenly Empire, then don't negotiate, if there is anything to talk about with a vassal country, just give an order.

Since it is a negotiation, it is to recognize that the other party has an equal status with oneself, and it is a reciprocal negotiation. If this premise is rejected, there will be no negotiations.

This is not a trivial matter, and later during the Chongzhen Dynasty, because he resolutely did not recognize the Manchu State in the northeast as having the same status, but resolutely believed that the other party was just a tribe under his rule and did not have the qualifications to negotiate, so he resolutely refused to negotiate with Nurhachi and Huang Taiji. After that, there were endless wars, and finally the huge military expenditure dragged down the Ming Empire.

In fact, Emperor Chongzhen also wanted to negotiate at that time, but was resisted by the ministers with righteousness, he authorized Chen Xinjia, the secretary of the Ministry of War, and Yuan Chonghuan, the governor of Jiliao, to negotiate secretly with Huang Taiji, Chen Xinjia accidentally leaked Chongzhen's secret will, Chongzhen beheaded Chen Xinjia to cover his shame, and then Huang Taiji led the troops from Datong to break through the pass, all the way to the city of Beijing, Chongzhen and Yuan Chonghuan to punish the people to thank the people, the people were angry, and there was also the meaning of extinguishing.

Therefore, later generations said that Chongzhen was on the emperor's throne, and mistakenly beheaded loyal ministers and good generals, that was only to see the surface, Chongzhen beheaded Yuan Chonghuan There are many deep-seated reasons, it is really a helpless move, Yuan Chonghuan does have the responsibility of dying to thank the world, but he should not die so miserably, let alone die under the charge of collaborating with the enemy and betraying the country.

This is a matter for the future, so I will not repeat it.

"Boss, if you don't lead the team out, these etiquette matters will be handed over to your old man. I'll be your little minion. Besides, he suggested earnestly.

"Yo, you little rabbit is trying to harm me." Zhang Whale was frightened when he heard this.

"What are you afraid of, I have 10,000 people, how can I protect your old man when he comes back safely, you can rest assured." Besides, Yin Yin persuaded and lowered his head and snickered.

"No, my old man said that he would not go to anything, and the long live lord gave me an errand to buy mink, bearskin, and fox skin. Of course, you kid pays. "The whale's head shook like a rattle.

Besides, he sneered: You know you can't do it, and you force me to do it, when I'm a fool.

Moreover, it seems that to be an envoy is to do a good job of an envoy's duty, and it is of course a crime of treason to humiliate the national dignity and grovel to the enemy, but patriotism is too inflated, pointing at the nose of the other king's nose and scolding and scolding, and he is also an unqualified diplomat.

The professional diplomats he admired in later generations, even when the two sides were still at war, could adhere to the standard of diplomatic etiquette and etiquette in the negotiations, instead of blindly speaking ill of each other, slapping each other's tables, glaring at each other, and even fighting with each other's necks and collars, which is the behavior of street hooligans and ruffians, and even those big gang organizations will not do this.

Besides, he returned to the yamen in a daze, and then began to check the supplies of the prince's honor guard, let them all be moved out and wiped clean, and those who were familiar with these instruments were brought in to practice.

He didn't know what tunes the prince's honor guard played, and what made these people practice was the hand-me-down Lanling King Breaking Formation Song, and I don't know who wrote this song, it is estimated that it will not be the authentic Lanling King Breaking Formation Song in the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

However, the music is indeed heroic and atmospheric, with the sound of war drums, the horses' hooves breaking the formation, and the shouts of the army, pushing the invincible momentum.

Besides, he only got this tune by chance, and it just so happened that the band didn't have a tune to rehearse, so he replaced it, which he thought was quite appropriate.

There have been no cases of the prince going out for many generations, and many ceremonial music have been lost, and King Ning's rebellion did not put on this set, he did not personally go into battle to fight, but sat in Nanchang to command the army, and was captured by the cunning Wang Shouren's strange soldiers.

It's ridiculous to say, physicists have always been imagined as having a straight face every day, meticulous, holding a whip in their hands, ready to give people the appearance of a sudden look, and the Cheng Yi brothers are really like this, other physicists are much the same, paying attention to sincerity and sincerity, and never leaving the word "cautious".

Wang Shouren is an alternative figure among physicists, he is full of cunning and cunning, and even the bandits in the mountains of Guangxi sigh: Wang Gong is cunning and untrustworthy.

They are more cunning than bandits, and they have no credibility, which can be regarded as the other extreme of physicists.

"I said, brother, what are you doing here?" Zhao Yang was surprised when he saw him move out of these, and he still made people practice in a decent way.

As long as they are not in front of everyone, Zhao Yang and Zhou Dingcheng are still brothers and brothers, and there are no rules for bosses and subordinates.

"This time, I will use it outside the Saiwai to open the eyes of the barbarians." Besides, he blinked and smiled.

"What tricks are you playing?"

Besides, Zhao Yang is full of tricks, and he can be regarded as having enough experience, but it is just an errand for envoys to negotiate, and he actually fiddles with a large business group, and it is all his own team.

"Boys, all of them are well rehearsed for Lord Ben, make them look decent, don't let people see any flaws, whoever drops the chain for Lord Ben when the time comes, Lord Ben will cut off his head." Besides, he ran away again.

Those band members were all as pale as earth, and it took half a day to sincerely ask Zhao Yang what it means to drop the chain, but I had never heard of this word.

Zhao Yang didn't understand, he had been following the situation for a long time, but he could guess it.

"The chain is the link, which is to warn you that there must be no mistakes in any link, otherwise you will lose your head." Zhao Erye gave an authoritative explanation, which is really what it means.

The members of the band studied each chain with sincere trepidation, and they were really afraid that when the time came, one chain would fall and a good head would fall to the ground.

In the interior, it may not be possible to cut off anyone's head casually, but when it comes to the outside of the country, there is only military law and no national law, and besides, whoever wants to cut off the head can cut off anyone's head, and there is absolutely no place to cry out for injustice.

Unrestricted power is like *, whoever puts it on the stall will be addicted, and in the end he will lose his head because of it.

Moreover, I am now trying my best to warn myself to stay away from authority as much as possible, and if I can, I will not use it, but sooner or later there will be times when I must use it, and it is difficult to say whether I can get rid of the side effects of this addiction at that time.

Besides, after leaving the yamen and coming to Li Xiangjun's residence, a guard had already gone to a street to inform Li Xiangjun first, so Li Xiangjun was already waiting for his arrival at home.

Besides, these days I often take the time to visit them, mainly to see how they are doing, whether they lack anything, whether they lack silver, etc., and they originally wanted to change Li Xiangjun's house, but later Zhuo Maolin came to Beijing and got along happily with them, but it was not good to do so, I was afraid that Zhuo Maolin would have a misunderstanding. This property was bought by the Salt Gang for Li Xiangjun.

"The master hasn't been here for many days, and the slave family is extremely honored." Li Xiangjun greeted Shi Li and smiled.

Besides, his face was red, this meant something, Li Xiangjun was afraid that it was not an honor, but a snubbing.

In fact, he is rarely with Xiao Nier and Zuo Ling at home, these days his mind is to negotiate outside the Saiwai, no matter how he thinks about it, he can't think of a foolproof plan, he doesn't have any desire at all, even if Chang'e is next moon and Xi Shi is resurrected, he won't have any ideas.
