The "Anglo-Qing Peace Agreement" was not concluded in October of the tenth year of the Holy Dao, as early as September, before the enthronement of Li, the agreement was signed in Tanggu, and later historians called it the "Tanggu Alliance", at this time the army of the Guangxu Emperor Hongshi was still surrounding Tanggu.

The process of concluding the agreement was not without its challenges, and when officials on both sides began to negotiate the details, there was a great deal of controversy about what had nothing to do with the agreement.

"Zhang Jing of the Military Aircraft Department? Let's not mention that the Military Aircraft Department is already an idle yamen, a small Zhang Jing, can you represent your Qing court? I, Yinghua, came forward as the deputy assistant of the cabinet...

Wang Youdun, the deputy governor of the General Affairs Office, who was specifically in charge of the negotiations, questioned the identity of Liu Tongxun, who represented the future Qianlong court.

"What is the origin of these people•••••• Fan Cifu's family and friends? ”

Liu Tongxun was also suspicious of the extra details, and he didn't dare to face the one-eyed citron in the account, just asked Wang Youdun, and he felt that although Fan Cifu had a bookish atmosphere, his temperament was closer to that of a martial artist.

These details did not hinder the overall situation, and they were quickly resolved, Liu Tongxun benefited from this, and got the promise of entering the military aircraft department of the Qianlong Dynasty in the future, but Fan Jin only lightly said that he had an old account with these people more than ten years ago, if you don't care, then wave the army to Shengjing to get people, which scared Liu Tongxun and others and nodded.

When Hongli and the others gathered to discuss the draft agreement, the desolate and desolate atmosphere almost topped the tent.

"The Qing Kingdom is dedicated to Yinghua and is the uncle country, and the correspondence documents are called the lord of Yinghua by the uncle emperor, which is ......"

This article made Hongli so uncomfortable, screaming in person, no outsiders knew, so it didn't matter. But in such a grandiose advertising world, his face is still a trivial matter, can the Qing people be convinced?

If you don't accept it, you can't do it, without this, Yinghua won't help Hongli to sit on the dragon chair, the Qing Dynasty will continue civil strife, and Yinghua will continue the Northern Expedition.

Liu Tongxun and Fu Qing both believed that it was the consensus of the upper Manchu and Han elites that Yinghua avoided the theme of recovering the land of China and adopted the old example of the Song and Liao dynasties, with the exception of the madmen of Hongshi Fupeng. Hongli had tears rolling in his stomach, so he had to admit it.

"The two sides agreed with ...... ...... for the boundary"

This is a line, this line made Hongli greatly relieved, Yinghua only needs to be south of the Huai River, not pushed to the south of the Yellow River, this line is basically the existing line of control of the Yinghua army. Including Hubei, Henan Xinyang Prefecture, most of Anhui and most of Jiangsu • not even including the Xi'an mentioned by Yinghua earlier.

Then Hongli's heart is cool again, and the next clauses are essentially a copy of the original "Hushu Peace Treaty", and there is a step further in the details.

"The two sides set up ministers to each other to negotiate and handle the affairs of the exchange."

"Cut Tanggu, set up Xi'an, Tianjin, Dengzhou, Xuzhou, etc. and other fifteen places as treaty ports, and set up a trade affairs yamen under the minister's yamen to negotiate and dispose of commerce."

"Establish a land-sea integrated tariff yamen • Yinghua will manage customs affairs."

"The two sides have free exchanges between merchants and goods, but all cases involving Anglo-Chinese nationals are adjudicated by the Anglo-Chinese Division.

"The armaments of the Qing State must be verified by the British and Chinese, and no troops of more than 1,000 troops shall be deployed within 100 miles of the border......"

"The Qing State shall not conclude a separate treaty with another country, otherwise it will be regarded as deliberately hostile ••••••"

Lin Lin has a long list, from diplomatic, trade, military and other levels, ruthlessly clamped down on the Qing Dynasty, and cutting Tanggu is a repeat of the strategy of entering the south of the Yangtze River with Longmen, which is to spread the tender meat of the Qing Dynasty on the charcoal stove, and as soon as the fire arrives, it can be entered into the mouth.

"With these terms, how many years can I still sit as emperor? This is to make me the king of the dead country! I'd rather let the third brother continue to be in office than recognize these terms! ”

Hongli finally went crazy and recognized these terms, that is, he publicly stated to the government and the opposition, and I, Hongli, as the emperor, helped the uncle emperor eat the Qing Dynasty! ..., Fu Qing said with tears: "At the beginning, Gou Jian tasted courage in order to return to China to succeed to the throne and regain his strength, Fourth Elder Brother, if you don't ascend the throne, how can you save our Qing Dynasty?" ”

Liu Tongxun also said heavily: "These clauses still recognize the Qing Dynasty and allow the Qing Dynasty to be independent in internal affairs." These days, I have also talked to Cai Tongshi about the situation of the countries under the Anglo-Chinese Alliance. For example, the Dayue Kingdom, now their state affairs are at the mercy of the General Affairs Hall, the Dayue Emperor is like a puppet, and the imperial court has become a Yinghua arm. For example, in Siam, the Anglo-Chinese intervened in the establishment of rice-producing areas and directly governed them, and the army of Siam was at the mercy of the Anglo-Chinese and did not accept the king's orders. For example, Ryukyu was directly destroyed by Yinghua, the important ministers were killed, and the royal family was imprisoned in Guangzhou. For example•••••• Japan also had an alliance with Yinghua, and their soldiers were still working for Yinghua in Nanyang. Fu Qing said eagerly: "Yes, if Yinghua is willing, with a shout, it is completely possible to pull out a million troops from various countries, and my Qing Dynasty will be overturned, but in an instant." ”

Hongli burst into tears, gritted his teeth for a long time, and said dejectedly: "You can't just admit it all, maybe it's the uncle emperor who is offering a lot of money, we have to muster up our hearts and pay back a little ......."

Ru Xi's voice sounded: "Give it back a little!?" No, you have to pay it back greatly! ”

When she entered the tent, Liu Tongxun and Fu Qing hurriedly saluted respectfully, but they were extremely surprised in their hearts.

Before the two sides contacted, Li Xi didn't pay much attention to Ru Xi, but in the eyes of Hongli and others, it was Li Xi's performance of treating Ru Xi as his own person. Ru Xi should be Li Xi's spokesperson, why is he still helping them speak?

Ru Xi's heart is boiling with resentment, she has been tossing and turning over and over in the past few days, and her mind is full of Li Shi's figure, and even for a moment, she feels that as long as Li Xi beckons, as long as Li Xi recognizes herself as his woman, she can ignore all the fates of the Manchurians, what power and wealth.

But it was just a dream, and she woke up in an instant. The reason why she was able to enter Li Shi's eyes was just like the reason why she was able to enter the Qianqing Palace in the first place, all because she stepped on two boats. The Manchurians regard her as the spokesperson of Li Shi, and Li Shi regards her as the spokesperson of the Manchurians, this is her value, her only value. If she wants to get out of the way, it's a speck of dust.

After holding her position, Li Shi's attitude of almost ignoring her in the past few days has made her suffer a lot.

Hearing that Hongli and the others were preparing to endure humiliation and submission, Ru Xi suddenly felt that this was a good opportunity for Li Xian to face himself squarely.

"You don't know Li Shi, but I do!"

Ru Xi snatched the draft text with his hand, turned around and walked out of the account, full of aura, Hongli and the others were shocked.

After a long while, Fu Qingcai sighed with emotion: "Concubine Chun, I was originally really planning for us......"

In the big tent fluttering the banner of the double-body Tai Chi Tuan Dragon, after listening to Ru Xi's words, Li Xi finally looked at Ru Xi squarely, "I can't see it, after so many years, your mind has not changed, just thinking about the fate of the Manchurians." ”

Ru Xi's face was red and her eyes were full of tears: "The concubine is not only thinking about the fate of the Manchurians, the emperor ...... Official, if you ask Hongli to recognize these terms, can he sit on the dragon chair? Even if Hongshi is resolved, these terms can force another Hongshi out! ”

"The official concubine knows very well that if you want to restore the Manchu people of the whole of China, you will only help you take care of the northern rivers and mountains, so as not to give birth to disasters like Li Zicheng. Ten years ago, just by secretly agreeing, you can accumulate enough strength to take over half of the country, now that the Song Dynasty has been restored, the south is strong and the north is weak, so why do you need to work so hard to regain the north? ”

"Wouldn't it be better to let the Manchurians not feel the weight of their bodies, let the north forget the humiliation of losing their land, and leave them enough face to live in a daze? Hongli is different from his father, he has been set as a prince since he was a child, he has a soft heart, without hardship, he is a peaceful son, as long as he does not feel that he is living like a year, the Qing Dynasty will be overturned, he will never cheer up for innovation, and the official family is the enemy.........,

Li Xi was really a little surprised when he said this, and his eyes were also a little dazed when he looked at Ru Xi, ten years ago, Ru Xi, who stated his heart in front of him, and could do anything for the fate of the Manchurians, did anything to let the Manchurians kill each other, and the current Ru Xi overlapped together, making him elusive.

Li Xi finally couldn't help but ask, "...... you What the hell are you thinking? What exactly do you want? ”

Ru Xi's eyes were red, and her body leaned forward again, what did she want? She wants •••••• man! I want someone to trust, cover, and love with all my heart, and there are only two men in this world who can have this identity and ability, and one has been abolished.

coughed lightly, and finally reminded Ru Xi that the old enemy who broke his red pill with his own hands was still by Li Xi's side.

Although his body stopped, his eyes were like hot magma, and he still burned Li Xi a little unbearable. A little inexplicable to this look, Li Xi turned his gaze away and said, "Okay, no matter what you think, these words are reasonable, Rong Zhen think about it." ”

Sadly retreated, turned around and was about to leave the account, Li Xi said again: "If you really have the heart to enter the overall situation of the world, you should find someone who can come forward for you......"

After Ru Xi left, Li Xi whispered to himself: "Ru Xi•••••• Cixi•••••• you can really be Cixi, for me, for Huaxia, it is not a bad thing." Siniang snorted beside her: "This woman is full of bad water, who knows what bad things she will do when she returns to Beijing?" Official, let me follow her and keep an eye on her! ”

Li Shi gave her a blank look and made a fool......

Throwing Ru Xi away and only thinking about those words, Li Xi hesitated a little.

Of course, these terms are sky-high prices, and the intention of adding provisions to clamp down on the military and diplomatic affairs of the Manchu Qing Dynasty is to bargain with Hongli and others, and the real bottom line is to open the port for trade and cede Tanggu, as long as there is such a mouth, eating the north is like eating the south of the Yangtze River, and it is completely according to the rules.

But Ru Xi's opinion is to try to give Manqing as much relief as possible, and this direction is too far from the original idea.

Regardless of Ruxi's position, Li Xi suddenly felt that this direction might be a better choice. After all, the routine of cutting into trade has been seen through the world since Guangdong, and then to Jiangnan.

But in this way, can the Chinese people understand? Will you scold yourself, the founder of the country, for betraying the country? Will you see that you only want to restore the Song Dynasty and have no intention of the whole of China? What do the countrymen think or secondly, what will the subordinates who follow them think?

On the beach, Li Xi walked side by side with Xiao Sheng and Fan Jin. Looking at the sea from afar, the battleship is like a huge sea beast, quietly moored, and its heart is as steady as a rock.

Xiao Sheng chuckled and said, "Official...... Hmm, fourth brother, you think too much••••••"

He let out a sigh of relief, stretched out his arms, and seemed to hug the entire fleet, "More than ten years ago, when I was a small foreign commissioner, I never thought that I would be able to have today. When the country was founded, it only thought about defeating the Manchu Qing and recovering China. But seven years ago, my brothers and I defeated the Spaniards at Yinglie Bay, and since then we have understood that the Manchus are no longer qualified to be our enemies, and our goal is not only to recover China. ”

"Our real goal is to make Huaxia stand proudly in the world. This great undertaking must be carried out step by step, and when to restore the land in the north depends on the needs, let alone let this step implicate our real goal. ”

Fan Jin washed him unceremoniously: "Not in a hurry? Who is it that has not completely wiped off the head and tail of the Dutch, and heard that the official family is going north to Tanggu, so he hurriedly brought back the entire main fleet, and also pressed Lao Bai's petition? Boss Xiao, you are the Governor of Nanyang, this is the Bohai Sea......"

Xiao Sheng glared and said, "I'm still the governor of the Privy Council!" Why can't you come? ..., he smiled again: "Actually, I also want to taste the future Emperor of Tartar, kneeling in front of the fourth brother, but •••••• feel very boring." Fan One-eyed, what about you? Your deep hatred more than ten years ago is about to be avenged, and your heart should be moved, right? ”

Fan Jin smiled and shook his head: "Like you, whether it is the Emperor of the Tartars kneeling in front of the official family, or the murderer who destroyed my family and mutilated my eyes back then, I didn't feel very excited." How to rub the Manchu Qing Dynasty, I don't think there is any need to dwell on too many details. ”

"Now I'm thinking about Jiangnan instead...... Even if we put so much effort into Jiangnan, Liu Xingchun is also very capable, but Jiangnan is still in chaos. I think the government should end this matter as soon as possible and turn to Jiangnan, which is the foundation of our future. ”

Li Xian smiled with his hand, and said in his heart that he was really thinking too much, everyone was already looking at the world with their eyes open, and then turning their heads to look at Huaxia, the angle was different.

After receiving the new draft, not only Ru Xi burst into tears, but he felt that he had really entered Li Xi's eyes, and Hongli and the others were not only happy, but also looked at Ru Xi's eyes.

Compared with the original battle horn draft, the new draft is simply a fairy sound. The restrictions on foreign affairs, military affairs, customs, and other internal affairs have all been abolished, and there is no more demand for Tanggu. In this context, the demand for free trade between the North and the South is not too threatening, or even necessary. The draft no longer even insists that Yinghua must be in charge of the business of transporting grain to the north, which even loosens the hands that are holding Daqing's throat.

Ru Xi choked up and said, "Fourth elder brother, he promised you to be the Prince of Peace••••••"

Hongli wanted to sing loudly, but his eyes were also strange when he saw Ru Xi, he thought that this woman's appearance had withered, but now he felt very beautiful.

The boulder fell in his heart, and Hongli began to worry about his practice: "He •••••• the emperor's warship can't drive on land, it seems that thousands of people have come, can he enter Beijing City?" I heard that the king of Durhan of Horqin came to Beijing with a team of 10,000 horses, and he was a die-hard supporter of the third brother's new policy. ”

Fu Qing, who was a martial artist, subconsciously spoke: "If it is a Mongolian horse team of 350,000, it is difficult to say, but it is only 10,000, and I don't want to stop the Yinghua army." ”

Everyone was silent, these words sounded very tangled, and after a long while, Hongli said: "Okay, the north and the south can be at peace, and I am worthy of the ancestors and ancestors." ”
