In mid-September, after several days of tense confrontation, Huang Taiji personally rushed to Shenyang City after weighing left and right, discussed with Li Hongyu how to solve the current "crisis", and determined the process of prisoner exchange, wanting to solve the prisoner matter as soon as possible to avoid more complications in the long night.

At this time, the strength of the Ming army in Sancha'erbao reached 30,000, and the Houjin army outside Fushun City also had 20,000.

After increasing the troops to Sancha'er Fort, Liaoyang's troops were only about 10,000 people, and Shenyang City was even less than a few thousand, but Houjin did not have the conditions to attack such a fortified city as Shenyang, and there were neither enough troops nor equipment to attack the city.

Therefore, Li Hongyu is not worried about the safety of Shenyang City at all, if he really wants to fight, he can also mobilize the people in the city to defend the city, and he can definitely hit the Houjin army hard.

Li Hongyu was taken aback when he learned that Huang Taiji personally came to Shenyang to negotiate, he did not expect that the future founding emperor of the Manchu Qing Dynasty would dare to come to Shenyang, he really had a lot of courage, no wonder he could win the struggle for the throne of the Khan in the future.

It stands to reason that Huang Taiji is now just a general of the rebel army, and even Nurhachi is just a slave chief in the eyes of the Ming army, so he naturally cannot be taken much seriously by the Ming army, and the Ming army usually sends a minor officer to deal with it.

But to everyone's surprise, Li Hongyu decided to see Huang Taiji in person on the grounds that the matter of exchanging prisoners was very important and could not be lost, after all, this was a matter of Emperor Wanli's imperial approval, of course, he had to attach importance to personally disposing of it, and at the same time, he didn't want anything to go wrong during the prisoner exchange, and he also wanted to express his concern for the captives in this way.

In addition, Li Hongyu also wanted to meet Huang Taiji, after all, Daming would have to deal with him for a long time in the future, and if he missed this opportunity, the two would probably not have the opportunity to communicate in the future.

In order to make the atmosphere of the negotiation less depressing, Li Hongyu deliberately brought Jin Taishi with him, although Ye Hebu and Hou Jin did not share the sky, but the nephew and uncle friendship between Jin Taishi and Huang Taiji could not be separated.

When Huang Taiji entered Shenyang City, he learned that the person who wanted to negotiate with him turned out to be Li Hongyu, the governor of Liaodong, and he was shocked in his heart.

The officials of the Ming Dynasty regarded themselves as the envoys of the Celestial Empire, and looked down on the tribes on the frontier and the surrounding vassal states, and even the envoys to the Korean Kingdom were either eunuchs or petty officials of about the seventh grade, so they naturally did not pay attention to him, the Baylor of the Later Jin.

Unexpectedly, Li Hongyu would see him in person when he came to Shenyang this time, which made Huang Taiji's mood very complicated, both shocked and excited, but also felt a little uneasy, and he didn't know Li Hongyu's intention to do this.

However, what disappointed Huang Taiji was that although the Ming army was in charge of the negotiation under the banner of Li Hongyu, the person who talked to him was Man Gui, after all, the gap between the two identities and status was huge, how could Li Hongyu personally negotiate with the current Huang Taiji? Wouldn't that be too much of a promotion!

Man Gui is Li Hongyu's captain of the guard, so in terms of identity and status, no one in Shenyang City is more suitable than him to negotiate with Huang Taiji on behalf of Li Hongyu.

Since Li Hongyu and Nurhachi had no intention of fighting, Huang Taiji and Man Gui decided to withdraw their troops after fighting about the Sancha'er Fort, and they died down to prepare for the arrival of the prisoner exchange ceremony.

As for the ownership of Sancha'er Fort, Huang Taiji did not force it, and since the Ming army had already captured Sancha'er Fort, it would not be handed over to Houjin, so the best choice was to acquiesce to the status quo.

Subsequently, Huang Taiji and Man Gui talked about the exchange of prisoners, which was the focus of the meeting between the two, and the most important thing was to send advance personnel for the exchange of prisoners to both sides to check that there had been any mistreatment of the prisoners by both sides after Nurhachi received Li Hongyu's letter of exchange of prisoners.

The practice of sending advance personnel was proposed by Li Hongyu to Nurhachi in his letter to the prisoner exchange, which can be said to have created a precedent in the history of prisoner exchange in feudal society.

Li Hongyu hoped to express his concern for the prisoners through this move, although they chose to surrender on the battlefield but did not take refuge in Houjin, after all, in the face of life and death, not everyone can calmly look down on life and death, so Li Hongyu showed great tolerance for those prisoners of war.

Because both sides had great sincerity, Huang Taiji negotiated the prisoner exchange with Man Gui in just one day, and everyone wanted to settle the matter as soon as possible.

Huang Taiji has already brought the advance personnel of the Houjin side to exchange prisoners, and the Ming army will send the advance personnel to deal with the prisoner exchange to Houjin the next day, which means that the prisoner exchange has officially begun.

In the evening, Jin Taishi, on behalf of Li Hongyu, hosted a banquet for Huang Taiji, who will stay in Shenyang until the end of the prisoner exchange, during which he will be accompanied by Jin Taishi, after all, the two are relatives and will get along much better.

Through contact with Jin Taishi, Huang Taiji was surprised to find that Jin Taishi seemed to have become Li Hongyu's confidant, not only did he have an unusually high evaluation of Li Hongyu in his words, but he could freely enter and leave the General Military Mansion to see Li Hongyu, and his identity was no different from that of a general of the Ming army.

In addition, under the secret promotion of Li Hongyu, since the Battle of Tieling, the views of the Liaodong Ming army on Yehebu have unconsciously changed, and gradually regarded it from a frontier barbarian to a subordinate Tusi.

In other words, the Liaodong Ming Army has begun to accept that Ye Hebu is a subject of the Ming Dynasty, and its status is similar to that of the White Pole Soldiers, which is naturally the credit of Li Hongyu, without Li Hongyu's support, how can Ye Hebu be recognized by the Liaodong Ming Army?

Of course, there are also factors in this, if they don't fight the battle of Tieling and impress the Liaodong Ming army, then it will be emotionally difficult for the Liaodong Ming army to accept the Yehe tribe who fled without a fight during the Salhu War.

The chief officer who was sent by Li Hongyu to check the prisoners captured by the Ming army in Houjin and prepare for the prisoner exchange was the Han side of the Military Department's Military Election and Qing Officials Division, and the Han side had been staying in Shenyang since he came to Liaodong to carry out Li Hongyu's orders, and was responsible for the operation of logistics and materials and the cause of the post-rebellion Jin spies.

In the past few months, the Han side can be described as conscientious, and Li Hongyu naturally wanted to give him a credit before leaving Liaodong, no matter how it is said that the Han side was also an assistant sent to him by Emperor Wanli.

At the end of September, the Ming army and the Houjin discussed the process of exchanging prisoners, and Li Hongyu attended Jin Taishi's family banquet the night before he led his army to Sancha'er Fort, the purpose of which was naturally to meet Huang Taiji.

As the governor of Liaodong in the Ming Dynasty, Yu should not use his official capacity to see Huang Taiji in public or private, after all, Huang Taiji is just a Baylor in the Houjin Kingdom, and even Nurhachi is not qualified enough in front of Li Hongyu, let alone him.

In fact, Li Hongyu doesn't care much about these red tape in the officialdom, but people are terrible, so in order to avoid criticism from the outside world, he can only use this workaround.

Huang Taiji didn't know that Li Hongyu was coming, but he thought that Jin Taishi wanted to see him off, and this time the two didn't know that they could meet in the Year of the Monkey.

When Huang Taiji and Jin Taishi were greeting in the living room, Li Hongyu walked in accompanied by Man Gui, which made Huang Taiji slightly stunned, and couldn't help but look at Li Hongyu in surprise, obviously the identity of the young man in front of him was higher than Man Gui, otherwise Man Gui would not follow him.

"Your Excellency, your presence has made the Humble House shine!" Of course, Huang Taiji would not have thought that the young man in civilian clothes who came in was the dignified governor of Liaodong of the Ming Dynasty, and just when he secretly guessed the identity of the other party, Jin Taishi had already gotten up to greet him.

"Lord Governor?" Huang Taiji was taken aback when he heard this, and looked at Li Hongyu with some disbelief, no matter what, he didn't expect that Jin Taishi would be able to invite Li Hongyu, which was really beyond his expectations.

Then, Huang Taiji hurriedly stood up, looking a little cramped, he was not a little mentally prepared, and he didn't know how to face Li Hongyu for a while.

"Kimbellor, this is your nephew?" Li Hongyu saw that Huang Taiji's expression was quite nervous, and he knew that his arrival made him feel uncomfortable, so he glanced at him and looked at Jin Taishi with a smile.

"Lord Governor, this is the lowly nephew Huang Taiji, the lowly sister was coldly treated by Nurhachi, so that she died of depression, leaving him alone in Jianzhou, and suffered a lot during the period."

Jin Taishi nodded when he heard this, his expression became a little gloomy, and after looking at Huang Taiji, he said to Li Hongyu with hatred, "If it weren't for Nurha's ruthlessness and unrighteousness that forced his humble sister to death, how could Abahai become a concubine!" ”

Hearing the mention of Abahai, Huang Taiji's face couldn't help but become a little cold, he did not resent Nurhachi's empathy, but thought that it was Abahai who confused Nurhachi with his young beauty, causing his mother to die of depression.

"I heard that Abahai is abnormally beautiful and is the first beauty of your Jurchens, I wonder if this is true?" Li Hongyu keenly noticed the change in Huang Taiji's face, and could see that his heart was full of hatred for Abahai, so he pretended not to know and asked Jin Taishi.

"Humph! Although that woman is beautiful, she is not as beautiful as her lowly niece Dongge, who is the first beauty of our Jurchens, and Nurhachi has coveted her beauty for a long time. ”

Jin Taishi sneered when he heard this, although Abahai is beautiful, he is slightly inferior to Dongge, if Dongge married Nurhachi and her cousin, that is, Huang Taiji's mother, then there is nothing to do with Abahai.

"I see!" Li Hongyu looked suddenly enlightened when he heard this, in fact, he had seen Brother Dong in Buyanggu, Brother Dong deserved to be the first beauty of the Jurchens, if he was ten years younger, I am afraid that even he would be fascinated.

At this time, the reason why Li Hongyu mentioned the matter of the first beauty of the Jurchen was naturally to arouse Huang Taiji's hatred for Abahai, and deliberately implied in his words that Abahai used her beauty to confuse Nurhachi, which led to Huang Taiji's mother dying at a young age, and he was unable to leave him brothers and sisters as companions.
