With a sense of prudence, respect, and even gratitude, Hauge was taken all the way from the outer city to the inner city, until a little eunuch brought him into the palace and into the study in the main hall of the Qianqing Palace. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"Meet King Yanming!" It was the first time for Haoge to see Zhu Changyuan in reality, and he only felt that he was handsome and elegant, and he was like an immortal.

"You and I are both kings, no need to be polite, get up!" Zhu Changyuan waved his hand and said to Poyu: "Give me a seat." ”

"King Xie Yanming!"

Hauge actually broke out in a cold sweat behind his back in this cold day, although he himself understood what kind of Siberian king he was crowned with, but how could he compare Zhu Changyuan.

The previous strength of the Manchu camp was basically destroyed by Zhu Changyuan in the two battles of Jinzhou and Xipingbao, and the strength of the Eight Banners was relatively intact and there were no losses in the blue flag in Haoge's hand.

Even if it is replenished after the later occupation of Liaodong, it will not exceed 50,000 horses now.

It's just that these 50,000 horses were divided into three by Zhu Changyuan, Dolgon was the king of Kyushu and wanted to lead a part of it to Fusang to fight, Duoduo was the king of Mongolia and wanted to lead people to attack Mongolia, and the blue flag in Hauge's hand was the largest force, but it was necessary to expedition to Siberia.

For the entire Qing Dynasty, this was a very tragic thing, but for Hao Ge personally, it was also an unexpected joy to become the first person in the Manchu Qing Dynasty.

Therefore, he came to Jingshi from Changping today to meet Zhu Changyuan, in addition to thanking him, there is another meaning: to see what kind of attitude Zhu Changyuan has towards him and what opinions he has.

Haoge got up from the ground, took out a huge piece of innocent jade from his bosom and put it on Zhu Changyuan's table, and said: "When we meet for the first time, the foreign minister has nothing to offer, so I would like to offer it!" ”

Zhu Changyuan looked at Yubi and smiled slightly, and said, "What book is Haoge reading now?" ”

Hauge said with a smile: "The minister has admired Han culture since he was a child, and he loves "Analects" and "Book of Rites" the most."

No wonder, it is said in the Book of Rites that when a minister goes to see the king, he can't leave empty-handed. If you go, you will have something to offer, this Haoge will learn and use it, but it's a pity that the etiquette of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period at that time is no longer applicable.

"Good. The widow took it, this jade is very extraordinary, where does it come from? Zhu Changyuan touched the jade, it was slightly cold, but it was not cold.

The color of the jade is blue and white. The jade is delicate and flawless.

"It's the Xiuyan jade of Liaodong, and it's the only river mill jade in ten thousand!" Haoge proudly boasted to Zhu Changyuan.

He didn't talk about it in vain, Zhu Changyuan didn't have much actual research on jade, but no matter how he said it, he had eaten a lot of antique appraisal skill books, so he still knew this Xiuyan jade, the most precious of which was the river mill jade, and such a large piece was rare.

"You have a heart, jade with a gentleman, Haoge should be the first gentleman under Huang Taiji!" Zhu Changyuan did not hesitate to praise him, and said that Haoge was happy again and again.

The widow turned around and asked people to use this piece of jade to make two seals. You and I will each have one side, and from now on we will be like brothers. Zhu Changyuan walked around the desk and walked to Hauge and patted him on the shoulder.

Haoge was flattered and wanted to stand up and kneel, but was stopped by Zhu Changyuan.

Zhu Changyuan silently turned behind Hauge, took the opportunity to retrieve a map from the system, and brought it back to the desk, which in Hauge's eyes looked very much like he took it out of the bookcase in the back.

"Here you go!" Zhu Changyuan unfolded the large map, pointed to a large piece of land in northeastern China, and said to Hauge: "Look, here. This vast expanse of land, full of primeval forests, is Siberia. ”

Zhu Changyuan's fingers dangled over a large area outside China, shaking Hauge in horror.

"This..."

Hauge knows the map. When he saw that his hometown was the southern region in the whole of Siberia, he almost went berserk: Zhu Changyuan actually wanted to drive me to that kind of place? Then you can't freeze to death?

Zhu Changyuan seemed to see through Haoge's thoughts, smiled and said, "You don't have to worry, you look here." With a gesture, he learned about a place in the southern part of Lake Baikal and said: "After the beginning of spring." I'll send a team of peasants and laborers with you to build a town here, and I'll send you two boatloads of coal before the next winter comes, so you won't freeze to death in the winter!" ”

The place Zhu Changyuan pointed to was Irkutsk, the second largest city in Eastern Siberia in modern society, and of course, during the Ming Dynasty, there were no cities built there, and even if they were inhabited, they were just some villages.

Seeing that Haoge still looked melancholy, Zhu Changyuan comforted: "You go back after the beginning of spring, get familiar with the geographical environment first when you go there, if you have all the needs, even if you mention it to the widow, I will do everything I can to meet it, and besides, it is still very hot over there in summer, so you don't need to worry about freezing to death." ”

"Once you have established your footing, the widows will build a railway from Beijing to this place, and coal can be transported in a steady stream."

Of all those who have opened up territory, this Hauge is the simplest and most difficult, simply because there will hardly be a large-scale struggle there, unless the Russian old man has the ability to organize an expedition of hundreds of thousands of troops; What is difficult is to fight against heaven and earth, against the climate, and against nature.

"The widow will not let you lead the people to farm, but only to take root. There is only one requirement: keep the door of the house and keep it out! ”

Hauge thought for a moment, then nodded heavily.

There are three reasons for him to make such a decision: one is that Zhu Changyuan does not let them farm, just to guard the soil, which provides him with the greatest guarantee against the harsh environment, as long as there is food, people have infinite wisdom to play out to prevent the cold and winter, which Haoge knows, the second is because Zhu Changyuan does not see him as a different species, a different race, but as his own family, especially the sentence of guarding the door of the house and keeping the domain outside, so that he has the feeling of a relative, of course, the most important thing is the third point: he dare not refuse!

Nothing happened on the 23rd.

On the 24th, Cao Huachun came to Beijing with his family and some subordinates from Riyue Island.

Zhu Changyuan asked people to arrange these people into the palace to fill it, and the harem in the province was too lonely, so he could let them help clean up. As for the queen Zhang Yan, she did not let her into the palace as soon as possible, but asked Cao Huachun to send her back to Zhang Guoji's mansion.

That night, Zhu Changyuan changed into ordinary clothes, only took Cao Huachun and Wang Wu, and came out of the palace in a carriage, and arrived at Zhang's mansion after a few laps.

Zhang Guoji didn't know that Zhu Changyuan was coming over in advance, so when he saw Zhu Changyuan, he was almost scared to death, hurriedly sorted out his clothes and ran to the door, knelt down to Zhu Changyuan, and said: "Minister Zhang Guoji, meet King Yanming!" ”

Zhu Changyuan smiled, very docile, grabbed Zhang Guoji and said: "Don't be polite Lord Zhang, the widow has no other meaning to come this time, I heard that the daughter Zhang Yu is weak, this king came to take a look!" ”

Zhang Yu?

Zhang Guoji said in his heart: I am just a daughter, I thought she committed suicide after being hit some time ago, and now she has just come back, and her health is not very good. But her name is not Zhang Yu, her name is Zhang Yan!

Zhang Guoji couldn't figure it out, and finally guessed that Zhu Changyuan might have misremembered the name, which was not surprising.

"Lord Wang, please!" Zhang Guoji has mixed feelings in his heart, and he doesn't know what to say?

This King Yanming came to see Yan'er? Could it be that you have a crush on her?

Oh my God, how good is this, Yan'er is the queen of the first emperor, how can this be good?

Cao Huachun grabbed Zhang Guoji, who wanted to follow Zhu Changyuan, and said in a low voice: "Lord Zhang, our family congratulates you, the two daughters have been loved by the emperor, which is really enviable." ”

Zhang Guoji was stunned for a moment, and looked at Cao Huachun for some reason.

Cao Huachun's face changed slightly, and he looked at Zhang Guoji with some seriousness and said: "Lord Zhang, the first queen Zhang Yan was martyred by death, and the ministers are sad, but the dead are gone, and the living will continue!" ”

Zhang Guoji was stunned for ten seconds, and finally figured out the key: I'm afraid this is a deceptive plan made by King Yanming in order to get my daughter, together with the eunuchs in the palace and all the insiders.

Forget it, since they say it's dead, let's die.

Zhu Changyuan entered the attic on the west side, climbed the stairs, couldn't wait to open the bead curtain outside the door, and saw the haggard beauty figure inside.

Zhang Yan was sitting on the stool, and when she saw Zhu Changyuan coming, she didn't get up, but looked at Zhu Changyuan and said a little unfamiliarly: "I miss Brother Hong'er, if you can't tolerate him, I'd rather go with the emperor!" ”

Zhu Changyuan smiled: "Then what if I tolerate him?" ”

Zhang Yan sighed and said, "That concubine is at the disposal of the prince!" ”

Zhu Changyuan walked slowly in front of her, stretched out his hand to hold Zhang Yan's soft hair, and said seriously: "We are all from the same world, I think I will return to that world sooner or later." After all, I'm only here to complete some tasks, not to stay here forever, how can I not tolerate that little brat! ”

"Besides, the happiness of the two of us is our own struggle, what do we have to do with others? If you don't want to be with me, don't want to be my woman, I still won't embarrass Zhu Cihong, if you are willing to be my woman, you won't exchange Zhu Cihong, you say this makes me very sad, even though I know you have me in your heart. ”

Zhang Yan's body trembled slightly, nodded, and said softly: "The concubine is wrong!" ”

"You are not a concubine, and you don't have to be so humble in front of me, in the future, you will be a widow, and you don't need to worry about so much!" Zhu Changyuan hugged Zhang Yan into his arms and said: "The previous queen Zhang Yan is dead, and she has gone with her first emperor and her Ming Dynasty." ”

"From today onwards, your name is Zhang Yu, and you are the queen of my Zhu Changyuan!"

"Hmm!"

Cao Huachun had already told her about the name change once in the morning, so this time Zhu Changyuan said it in person, and Zhang Yan was not surprised. (To be continued.) )
