As soon as this clause, which had been waited for so many days and finally appeared, was read out, not to mention the astonishment of most of the people in the Manchu delegation, who had been kept in the dark by the majority of the people in the Manchu delegation, even Zaiyuan, Seng Grinqin, and Du Han, who had already communicated with their Russian friends yesterday and received the general details of this fateful clause in advance, could not help but gasp for a while being surprised.

According to the Russian friends, the so-called clause that Zuo Zongtang read out just now was nothing more than a smokescreen cast by the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, in order to finally get a bargaining chip that was satisfied with the bottom line of the negotiations they had set. Everyone will understand that doing business has always been about asking for prices and paying back on the ground. The Russian friends also said that the final bottom line of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom side was to basically maintain the main plan of their Qing side, and they only wanted to use this tough clause to achieve their goal of forcing the Qing side to acquiesce in and give up Tibet, and not to continue to instigate the contradictions between the Hui and Han Dynasty in the northwest and create trouble for the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. Although Zaiyuan and the others did not know what kind of means the Russian friends had obtained this top-secret information, and at first glance, they were still suspicious, but the facts showed that what the Russian friends had was indeed true.

Russian friends are powerful, and it is clear that Russian friends have planted traitors within the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom regime. Because they had obtained far more than this heavy information from their Russian friends, they had also received another important piece of information, that is, the Hui rebellion in Shaanxi and Gansu had forced the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom government, which liked to sing high notes, to make a decision, and as long as the Hui people there persisted and insisted on expanding the contradictions between the Hui and Han, they would be prepared to accept the Hui Hui's request to establish a Muslim autonomous province of Ningxia, so as to prevent more Han people living in Shaanxi and Gansu from being poisoned.

Since this is the case, for Zaigaki and the others, who have been in a state of anxiety, the mood seems to be much lighter, and of course, the current negotiation has also become much easier, not only easy, but also a bright future.

However, after all, although Zaiyuan and the others had already counted in advance, with the deliberate gesture of Zuo Zongtang on the other side, and the obvious intention to make the delegates understand their terms more clearly, his once strong Hunan accent, word by word tone, all made them feel a kind of majesty. In their view, what kind of peace talks are these terms, it is more like a kind of recruitment to the "mountains and grasses". The scene that I had been feeling like an equal here a few days ago seemed to disappear immediately. Although they had not participated in the negotiation of those agreements with foreigners in the past, they seem to feel a little bit of that situation today, and these officials of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom must not be inferior to the foreigners in those negotiations.

It's just too domineering!

Another thing that surprised Zaiyuan and Seng Greenqin was that I don't know if the Russian friends were intentional and negligent last night, or because the Russian friends did not get all the details of the terms of the other party at all, but in the content of the advance notice to them, there was no proposal from the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom that Yixin, Zaiyuan, Duanhua, and Seng Greenqin could be invited to participate in the leadership of the Supreme Revolutionary Command Committee of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom and discuss this article of the country.

"I really don't understand, since the beginning of the Kangxi Holy Grandfather, my Qing Dynasty has been committed to the Manchu and Han families, Han officials discuss politics, open science and take scholars, promote agriculture, not only have the people live and work in peace and contentment, the prosperity of the Kangqian Dynasty, but also expand the territory." Du Han snapped the fan in his hand, a little furious, "Right now, aren't you also shouting about national unity and national equality?" Why do you want to artificially cut off the relationship between the Manchus and Hans, and you have to make the Qing Dynasty a foreigner! ”

"Isn't it a foreigner, using someone else? Is the separation between the Manchus and the Han Dynasty something we want to do? Zuo Zongtang smiled, he shook the folding fan in his hand and looked at Du Han, "From the first moment you sat here, you yourself didn't think of yourself as a member of the big family on this land at all, you just felt that you should still be the master of this land." Hehe, peace talks between the two countries, demarcation and rule, what do you think you think you are? You sell here today, sell there tomorrow, what is the dignified land of China regarded by your Qing Dynasty? If it's not your stuff, of course it won't be expensive. ”

"Down-and-out quibble!" Du Han opened the fan with a bang, fanning desperately, his shiny, bald forehead was covered with beads of sweat the size of beans, "When did I ever sell an inch of my own land in the Qing Dynasty?" It was all forced by the great powers, and it was a last resort. Besides, if it weren't for the restraint of the people everywhere over the years, and the waste of a large amount of money in the imperial court, why would the country be so ruined? But you don't look at this, but you do your best to deceive the Manchurian and blind people and work for your own ulterior purposes, using anti-Manchu as an excuse to deceive some dizzy blind people and work for you. Now, on the surface, you are shouting for peace talks, but you are putting forward such a clause that seems to be the master, which is clearly obstructing the progress of the peace talks. ”

"Master? You're right, we are not only supposed to, but we are the masters of this land. Zeng Guofan narrowed his eyes and swept the people opposite, "First of all, I want to correct Your Excellency Lord Du, the estrangement between the Manchus and the Han is not something that we can shout out. ”

"Let's put aside everything else, let's talk about the book "The Mystery of Great Righteousness" written by your Yongzhengye, from which it can be seen whether your so-called Manchu Daqing himself thinks of himself as Chinese." Ming Taizu is the son of Yuan. In the words of the Gang Chang Lun, how can we escape the crime of usurpation? He also said precisely, 'As for my dynasty in the Ming Dynasty, the ears of the neighboring countries', 'I will rise in Longxing, not from the Middle Earth to Manchuria, from Manchuria to China, and the land is more than thousands of miles apart. Zeng Guofan's head shook slightly, not looking at anything recorded on paper, just relying on memory, those Yongzheng's original words came out of his mouth, "Yongzheng said that Ming Taizu's overthrow of Meng Yuan was a peasant rebellion, and they were Manchurians, and Manchuria was not China." are two countries separated by thousands of miles. ”

Du Han was so hot that he was already soaked all over his body, and his face was even more dry, "Mr. Zeng is worthy of being a great Confucian, and he really has a good memory." However, you are misinterpreting the meaning of Yongzhengye. I should remind you that the China that Yongzheng Ye is talking about is actually synonymous with the Central Plains, not referring to a country, just a dynasty. The state and the dynasty are two fundamental concepts. I know that you are mentioning again that everyone should have forgotten about the entry of the Great Qing Dynasty in order to prove how cruel the Great Qing Dynasty was. Don't forget, it's just a 'brotherly wall' in the alternation of dynasties. ”

"Master Du, I know that you are from Hanlin and Shandong, and no matter how bad you are, you were born in the land of saints and celebrities. Your willingness to be loyal to your Qing Dynasty is your business, otherwise, your name would not be absent from the list of war criminals. However, I would like to advise Your Excellency, don't talk nonsense, and take some responsibility. For more than 200 years, it is precisely because there are too many people like you who like to talk nonsense and arbitrarily arrange history that have led our dignified Chinese kingdom to the state it is today. Zeng Guofan stared at Du Han and pursed his lips, "You have listened carefully, 'And like the Chinese people, they treat foreign people who enter the great unification lightly, and the harm is only to slander and ridicule and bewitch one or two bandits.' The original is not damaged, so the public is not the same, and the ethics are great. If a foreign monarch enters the great unification and does not regard the Chinese people as his sons, then what can the Chinese people entrust them with? ','The heaviest person in the world of life is as common as Lunchang, and the monarch and the minister are the first of the five Lun, especially the father and son. Is there a person in the world who has no king, and who can still be described as a person? People have no king's heart, and they are not yet called beasts? If you are human, you are a human, and if you destroy the heavens, you are a beast, and you can't distinguish between humans and birds because of Huayi. And the destiny of heaven is the king, but it is against the will of the sky, how can there be anyone who will not be punished by the sky? ', 'It is the king of Yidi, that is, the sages and the like, and the dead king of Zhuxia, that is, the beasts and the like'. ”
