As for the envoys of the Portuguese and Annam Mohs, it was purely an accident.

Shen Tingyang didn't know what these people were going to do so desperately to go north to the Ming Dynasty to meet the Ming Emperor.

These two groups of people were found by Shen Tingyang when he passed by Hao Jingao again on the way back and stopped again.

In fact, whether it was the envoys of Annam Mo's or the Portuguese representatives in Southeast Asia, they all approached Xiangshan County, where Haojingao was located, and put forward a request to go north to Beijing and meet the Ming Emperor.

But they were all rejected by Xiangshan County on the grounds that the northern road was blocked.

Guarding a port like Haojing'ao for trade with the Portuguese, Xiangshan County saw many tributary envoys like this.

In the history of the Ming Dynasty, there were many people like this, pretending to be envoys of Fanbang, and entering the country with a large number of goods, nominally as tribute, but in fact smuggling.

Seeing too many such so-called Fanbang envoys, the officials of Xiangshan County naturally did not eat them.

And at this time, the land of northern Guangdong was indeed in chaos, and the land route from Guangdong to the north to pay tribute was indeed impassable.

Especially at this time, the Liangguang Governor's Palace, the Guangdong Governor's Yamen, and other important officials in the territory of the province have shifted their energy to extinguishing the civil unrest launched by Chen Wan, Zhong Lingxiu and others.

Therefore, when they heard that the ship that was going to Batavia on behalf of the Ming Dynasty had returned to Haojingao, they immediately came to the port of Shen Tingyang's fleet, asking to see the envoy of the Great Tomorrow, and they couldn't get rid of it.

After Shen Tingyang learned the news, he met with these two people and inspected the letter of state from Annan Mo's envoy Mo Jingwan, as well as the envoy document issued by the Portuguese Governor's Office of Manraka that Perez carried.

Considering the position of Annan and Manlajia, in the end, Shen Tingyang overrode the public opinion, took care of this idle matter, and on the way back to Beijing, he took these envoys of Fanbang to the north together, delayed in Penghu for a period of time, and finally rushed back to Beijing a few days before the New Year's Day court.

On the afternoon of the 23rd day of the lunar month, Shen Tingyang and others accepted the summons of Emperor Chongzhen, and the next morning, they went to the yamen of the Li Fan Yuan, met with Wu Weiying, the envoy of the Li Fan Yuan, and Jiang Yueguang, the deputy envoy of the Li Fan Yuan, and reported the ins and outs of the whole matter to the two of them.

Then, on the afternoon of the 24th day of the lunar month, Shen Tingyang, Jiang Yueguang, the deputy envoy of the Li Fan Yuan, and others rushed to Tianjin in a carriage to bring these envoys into the court.

In the next few days, after the previous turmoil of impeachment of Yuan Chonghuan, the court of the capital once again entered a relatively quiet period.

Only the emperor's pro-army Sanwei, the Ministry of Rites, the Lifan Yuan, and other yamen who were preparing for the Zhengdan Dynasty Meeting were still busy.

The envoys of the foreign feudal clans who were preparing to appear at the court meeting were once again gathered in the ceremonial hotel of the Imperial Court, and followed the officials of the Ministry of Rites to learn various etiquettes such as entering the palace, going to court, receiving people, bowing, and answering questions.

And among these people, including Lan Fei Hai Lanzhu's younger brother Manzhu Xili.

At this time, he still had the full bead Xili in the shape of a money rat tail, although he had not cut off his braids, but his life in the Ming Jingshi for a month, especially his meeting with Hai Lanzhu, made him already believe in his heart that the Jurchen Dajin Kingdom outside Shanhaiguan was not the opponent of the Ming Dynasty.

If the battle outside Juyong Pass is won, or even if you are undefeated and retreat, then everything still has a chance.

But now, the Dajin Kingdom Tiancong Khan has been defeated outside Juyong Pass, and I am afraid that there will be no chance from now on.

In this case, do the Horqin people still have to go all the way to the dark and follow the Jurchens to fight against the Ming Dynasty?

On the day of the bloody battle of Juyongguan, Emperor Chongzhen specially asked people to bring a full bead ritual to watch the battle on the Yongsheng Gate.

The cavalry of the Jurchens and the Mongol tribes swept in, like a dark cloud pressing down on the city, and the momentum was extremely terrifying, but what was the result?

In front of the rain of bullets woven by the cannons, muskets, and thunderbolts of the Ming Dynasty official army, and under the strong cities of the Ming Dynasty, the archers and horses that the Jurchens and the Mongols have always been proud of have been defeated, and there is not much room for counterattack!

Faced with the cruel and bloody war scene under Juyong Pass, Manzhu Xili, who was already seventeen or eighteen years old, had to rethink the future of the Horqin people.

His two older brothers are dead, and now he is the heir to the left wing of Korqin, and it will be his father's turn after Jaisambel.

Under such circumstances, if all the departments of the left wing of Horqin go to the black and follow the Jurchens and the Ming Dynasty to the end, what kind of Horqin can he take over?

Since a few days after the end of the Battle of Juyong Pass, he was sent back to Beijing by Emperor Chongzhen and met his long-lost sister, Manzhu Xili has been thinking about such a question.

There was no such problem with the Korean envoys, the Karaqin envoys, the Kulun envoys, and the newly arrived Duolun envoys who had studied the Hajj etiquette at the Rifan Yuan Rite Guesthouse.

Because, when they were forced to choose a side the previous time, they had already put the bet on the side of the Ming Dynasty, and now they naturally do not have the entanglements in the heart of Manzhu Xili.

However, when they saw that the heirs of Horqin's left wing had all come to the capital of the Ming Dynasty to participate in the ceremony of the Zhengdan Dynasty, everyone had a different experience in their hearts.

It seems that the Jurchen Dajin Kingdom is really going into decline, after all, the Horqin left-wing Mongols used to be the hardcore followers of the Jurchens!

The one who felt this most deeply may be the envoy of Kundulun Khan Burhatu of the Karaqin Department - the commander of the Ulan Hada Command Envoy Tongzhi and the left wing of the Karaqin Taijidelige.

This once unruly and boastful of military force of the Karaqin Mongol man, after many wars in the past two years, has become more and more aware of a truth, following the current emperor of the Ming Dynasty, Karaqin will not suffer.

Where is the Uliangha Sanwei, who was once strong in the steppes of Eastern Mongolia?

Where is Lin Dan Khan of the Chahar Tribe, who once also claimed hegemony in Eastern Mongolia and even in the Southern Mongolian steppe?

And in the face of the Jurchens of the Houjin State, in the face of the strong Horqin, the Karaqin Tribe, which was once one of the eight Etoks of the Chahar Department, has stood up to this day, and it seems to have become the most powerful tribe in the Eastern Mongolian steppe?

Delige, who has always believed in the respect of the strong, knows very well that after Lin Dan Khan moved west to Monan, Karaqin was able to stand tall on the steppe of Eastern Mongolia, not by the self-proclaimed martial arts of the Karaqin people, but by the continuous support of the Ming Dynasty to Karaqin.

Without the support of the Ming Dynasty, the Karaqin people could not afford to build the first fortified city on the steppe of Eastern Mongolia, Ulan Hada Mountain City.

Without the support of the Ming Dynasty, the cavalry of Karaqin could not be equipped with armor and standard bows, arrows and sabers.

Without the support of the Ming Dynasty, the Karaqin people could not survive one cold winter and famine after another on the grassland.

Let's just say that this time, if there was no Ulan Hada Mountain City built with the help of the Ming Dynasty, and there was no camp after camp of the Ming army behind the Ulan Hada Mountain City, how could Huang Taiji, the Jurchen Lord who led hundreds of thousands of troops, let go of the Karaqin Department that stopped on his way to the west and south?

So this time, after Delig entered the court, his attitude towards the officials of the Ming Dynasty and the Ministry of Rites became extremely respectful, and a stout man who was accustomed to killing the enemy immediately learned all kinds of red tape taught by the officials of the Ming Dynasty Ministry of Rites, and he was extremely serious and patient.

As for the envoys of the Kulun and Duolun tribes, needless to say, since the good news of the Ming army under Juyong Pass quickly spread to Saibei, they were immediately ordered to set off on the road.

Of course, if it is Huang Taiji who wins, then at this time they will not appear in the Jingshi of the Ming Dynasty, but will appear in the Khan Palace in Shenyang City for the first time.

However, I am afraid that this opportunity will not be available again in the future.
