Because of the incessant bombardment of the cannons of the Model Army, Huang Taiji could only conduct the court meeting in the open air under the walls of the fortress. The guards cleared out an open space, controlled the surroundings, and placed a chair against the city wall, and a Huang Luo umbrella was propped up next to it, which was the throne of Huang Taiji, and the other Belle Bebezers stood close to the point, then the civil and military officials of Manchuria, and then those Hanchen. They were far behind, almost out of the cover of the city walls, so every time the cannon sounded, they couldn't help but shrink their necks, as if they wanted to shrink their heads into their bodies.

At this time, what was discussed at the court meeting was the preliminary reply given by the Zheng family.

"Fu Lehe, you tell everyone about your envoy to the Ming army this time." Huang Taiji said softly.

Fleuch, the son of Azig, a young man in his twenties, was sent to the model army to show his sincerity. Hearing Huang Taiji's question, he came out and knelt down and kowtowed: "Tell the emperor, the slave sent the Ming army this time, although he couldn't see the prince of Anping, but the prince of Anping asked the servant to pass some words. ”

"Tell everyone what he wants you to say." Huang Tai Ji Road.

"Huh," replied Fu Lehe, "the servants went to the Ming army, informed them of the emperor's holy message, and they were imprisoned in a tent. After a long time, a staff officer who claimed to be the prince of Anping came to the tent and said something to the minion, which was quite wild, and the minion did not dare to say it. ”

Huang Taiji said with a smile: "The people of the Ming Kingdom have always been like this. This is what he said, not what you said, why don't you dare? Could it be that I am an unrighteous king who angers others for no reason? Just say what he said and don't change a word. ”

Fu Lehe kowtowed again and said: "The emperor is sage, that person said to read the emperor's letter......

Huang Taiji frowned and said, "Let you say his exact words." Could it be that the staff of the Ming army will call me the emperor? ”

Fu Lehe said: "The emperor forgives the sin, the man said: 'Look at the letter of the rebel chief, but there are also two points of sincerity, but this rebel chief in the letter called himself 'the emperor of the Qing Dynasty' really does not know whether to live or die, this is a great disrespect to the Ming Emperor, just this title, he should be punished by the nine clans. There is no bullshit in this world, only the Jianzhou Wei who committed rebellion. Therefore, if the rebel chief really wants to recruit peace and save his life, this title must not be wrong. can only call himself a sinner, and he can't make anything out of the Qing Dynasty or anything. ’”

As soon as these words fell, some of the Manchu officials around them began to discuss indignantly. Especially those Hanchens, they all looked indignant, and they scolded those Nikans of the Ming Kingdom for not knowing how to lift. However, Huang Tai Ji'an sat on the throne and didn't seem to be angry at all.

The other Baylors, such as Daishan, Azig and Duoduo, also did not react, obviously, they already knew these words, and even what attitude they should take, they had already communicated to each other.

The man also said that the emperor is sending someone to send this thing now, most likely because he can't stand it anymore and wants to play a delaying tactic. It's just that whether it's war or peace, that's up to Emperor Ming. The holy decree received by the prince of Anping was to ...... Plough the court of my Jianzhou Department and sweep the holes, and kill not a single one. He didn't dare to stop until he received a new decree. If we move slowly, even if the Ming Emperor is lenient and willing to spare us, I am afraid that they will already kill us. Four-lech continued.

"Hmph, don't be ashamed!" Huang Taiji sneered, "What else did he say?" ”

Fu Lehe hurriedly said: "He said that if we are really sincere, we will send the hostages over first, and then return them a thousand Han people every day, and they will have a day of truce." ”

"Humph!" Huang Taiji snorted coldly again, and then said to everyone, "What do you guys think?" Tell me about it. ”

The ministers around you all look at me, I look at you, but no one speaks first. This is actually normal, because everyone actually knows that now that the Manchu Qing are losing and retreating, it really needs to be slowed down, and although the conditions put forward there are some humiliating, they are actually in line with the needs of the Manchus today. So standing up against it at this time, of course, is shameless. But no matter what, this matter is always a humiliating thing, and standing up and agreeing with it is afraid that it will also make people feel that their position is problematic. So it's better not to open your mouth and see what the big guys have to say first.

Everyone was silent for a while, and finally Dai Shan spoke first: "Your Majesty, if you want to say that our army really needs time to reorganize its defense at this time, I don't think their conditions cannot be considered." Calculated now, in today's world, it is actually quite appropriate to exchange a thousand Han people for a day. It's just that these Han people are now all under the banners of each banner, and they are all assigned to the names of each family, and now they have to take it back, but I'm afraid it will be difficult to deal with. However, no matter what decision the emperor makes, my two red flags will definitely not hold the emperor back. ”

Huang Taiji nodded and said, "The second brother is so loyal to the country, which is really an example for everyone. I also promise that I will never let everyone suffer. Those who have contributed to our Qing Dynasty today will definitely repay them tenfold and hundredfold in the future. ”

"And the hostage thing." Dai Shan said again, "I don't know which prince the emperor plans to let ......"

"Your Majesty." Huang Taiji hadn't spoken yet, but Fu Lehe was the first to speak, "The prince of Anping asked that the hostages must be appointed by him, and he asked for ......."

"Who does he want to take hostage?" Huang Taiji asked.

"They want Fu Lin to be a hostage." Fu Lehe replied, "The man also said that Fu Lin is still young now, and it is not convenient for him to be a hostage alone, so he can let his mother also go over to take care of him." ”

This is actually a request to take Fulin and Hai Lanzhu as hostages together. Because the Manchu Qing Dynasty proposed to recruit peace and sue for peace, it was essentially a delaying tactic, so it is foreseeable that most of the people sent as hostages will not end well. And these two people are the people Huang Taiji values the most emotionally. Don't look at Huang Taiji's face at this time, there is no expression on his face, but last night, when he heard the news from Fu Lehe, he dropped the cup, and gritted his teeth and scolded Dolgon.

However, after smashing the cup and scolding Dolgon, Huang Taiji calmed down and realized that this condition was actually not a big deal. After all, Huang Taiji is not the kind of Huang Taiji in Qing court dramas, although sons and women are important, but compared with the great cause of the country, it is also obvious which is more important.
