Chapter 263: Great Opportunity

Mozhigen and Sumya had come to hunt, and the harvest was quite large, two hares, three pheasants, and a large basket of mushrooms, but there were no large beasts.

Zhang You and Li Yan helped them hold it, and followed the two of them to the north all the way, during which they met two waves of Zhao Pengcheng's subordinates, because each time it was Zhang You who first discovered each other's whereabouts and hid in advance, but they were not exposed.

Zhao Pengcheng's subordinates really respected Sumeiya very much, calling her "Don't beg", Li Yan didn't know what it meant, but Zhang You knew very well, this so-called "Don't beg" refers to the daughter of the Mongolian Great Khan, similar to the meaning of "princess" in Chinese, instead of relieving his doubts, he became more and more confused.

Because according to Altan Khan's age, there should not be such a young daughter, and others who can be called "Khan" are too far away from here.

However, Sumya's status is noble, and he has affirmed this. The other party once admitted that his grandfather was a great person, and it also verified his judgment from the side.

This is already the edge of the Mongolian Plateau, the further north you go, the flatter the terrain becomes, and when you finally get out of the forest, the eyes suddenly open up, an endless pasture appears in front of everyone, yurts are dotted like flowers, herds of cattle and sheep, and the melodious sound of the horse-head fiddle comes, mixed with a few dog barks, outlining a peaceful picture.

"Zhao Pengcheng and they live over there, very close to my house, which is Bansheng District, where many Han people live." Sumya said, pointing into the distance.

The so-called bansheng is the transliteration of the Chinese "common people", which means city, house and fort. In the late Ming Dynasty, Han soldiers and civilians from the Central Plains migrated to the Tumut region ruled by Altan Khan, where they built houses, reclaimed wasteland, established villages, engaged in agricultural, sideline and handicraft production, and paid taxes to Altan Khan and other lords. The local Mongolian people refer to these houses, villages and Han people as "bansheng".

This is "Bansheng" in a broad sense, and in a narrow sense, Bansheng specifically refers to the Mongol and Han people's settlements on the ******** near Fengzhou Beach.

Zhang You knows the history of the Ming Dynasty very well, so these are naturally difficult for him?

The place that Sumya said was out of sight, so following the direction of her finger, Zhang You only saw a hill, and the rest, he couldn't see anything.

"Where is the Black Wind?" Zhang You asked.

Mo Rigen pointed to the northwest: "It's over there, about thirty miles away, the terrain is treacherous, it used to be a military location, after the Longqing peace talks, our Great Khan was named the queen of Shunyi by your court and then had no sword soldiers, so it gradually fell into ruin, and now it is the holy land of the White Lotus Sect, and those who believe in religion often go there to offer incense." ”

"Are there many religious people?" Zhang You's eyes narrowed and he asked.

A few people talked and walked, and when they were talking, they had already come to a yurt, and Mo Rigen let Zhang You and Li Yan in: "This is my house, my mother should have herded sheep, you're welcome, just sit down." As he spoke, he gathered up the game and put it outside the yurt, and when he came in, he was busy making milk tea and taking beef jerky to entertain the two guests.

It wasn't until the fragrant and hot milk tea was poured and served to Zhang You and Li Yan that Mo Rigen sat down and continued the topic just now: "There are many people who believe in the Yellow Sect here, and there are also those who believe in the White Lotus Sect, but most of the Han people here believe in the White Lotus Sect. ”

"So many people? Then your tribe is not small, who is your lord? Does Xin love Huang Taiji? Zhang You asked with a smile, and looked at Su Miya as he spoke: "If my guess is right, you should be his daughter, right?" ”

Su Mya was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "You are so smart, I don't seem to tell you my identity, right?" How did you guess? ”

Li Yan was also surprised and looked at Zhang You curiously.

"It's actually very simple, first of all, you are very beautiful, I heard that the descendants of the Golden Family are very beautiful."

Of course, this is a compliment, Zhang You continued: "Secondly, the accessories on your body are very valuable, and then, you also admit in person, your grandfather is a great person, living in ********, isn't the famous Altan Khan a great person?" Finally, and very importantly, Zhao Pengcheng's subordinates have a lot of respect for you and call you ...... beggar."

"That's all their sycophancy, my father hasn't inherited the throne yet." Sumya's words are tantamount to admitting Zhang You's inference.

Li Yan suddenly realized that Xin Ai Huang Taiji was the eldest son of Altan Khan, and when Altan Khan was named the king of Shunyi, he was also named the governor of Tongzhi, guarding Xinghe Mansion, she often came to Zhangjiakou, and naturally heard of his name.

"Taiji" is a Mongolian word that is similar to the Chinese word for "prince", and Huang Taiji is similar to the crown prince.

"And what about Morrigan, it's your father's men, right?" Zhang You asked again.

Sumya glanced at Mo Rigen affectionately: He is a hundred households under my Abba, and this pastoral area is his territory, I like him very much, but unfortunately my father wants me to marry Changang, the leader of Duoyanwei, which is also what Tumen Khan meant......"

Tumen Khan is the Great Khan of Chahar, the great-eldest grandson of Dayan Khan, the Khan comes from the Dayan Khan line, nominally the co-owner of 60,000 Mongolian households, but Altan Khan is powerful, and does not obey his orders, in order to avoid being annexed by it, he has led the left wing of 30,000 households to move east to the northeast, which is what the Ming Dynasty called the barbarians.

Zhang You's heart moved, and he faintly remembered that during the Wanli period, the Tuban had invaded the Ming Dynasty with Duoyan Sanwei and soldiers, but he couldn't remember the specific time.

Could it be that this beautiful Sumya in front of you is one of the conditions for the two to make peace?

As for Xin Ai Huang Taiji's friendship with his nephew Tumen Khan, Zhang You still knows, Xin Ai Huang Taiji is very dissatisfied with Altan Khan's request for tribute from the Ming Dynasty without consulting with the 30,000 households of the left wing, and he has long had a dislike with Altan Khan, and at the same time, because he did not support the tribute negotiation, he also aroused the strong dissatisfaction of Zhong Jin Hatun (Three Niangzi), who tried his best to promote the tribute, and Altan Khan was already a little centrifuged.

It's a pity that he probably couldn't have imagined that in less than a year, he would be forced to marry his most hated stepmother, Sanniangzi, in a formality.

Thinking of this, Zhang You suddenly thought that if the historical record is good, Altan Khan will die not long after, right? When the time comes, there will be great turmoil in Tatar, can I do anything about it?

Also, now that the barbarians are newly defeated, they must be eager to make peace with Duoyan Sanwei, do you want to do some damage from it?

He suddenly realized that a huge opportunity appeared before him, and if he grasped it correctly, the benefits would be no less than the rewards of going to sea.

He was a little excited, but also a little distressed, the Mongolian tribes are numerous, the forces are complicated, although he has also read some articles in later generations, but it is only a one-sided understanding, if you want to take millet from the fire, I am afraid it is not a simple matter.
