"My lord, today I went to the Annan Ministry of Rites and Lifan to submit a letter, but it turned out that Chen Xiangxiao, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Bai Wuguang, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, were missing again." In the state guesthouse of Thang Long Mansion, Zong Youfang's entourage complained to him. "It's been more than a month, and Beihe has been blindly pushing and prevaricating, and its intentions are very hateful, and they simply despise our domain."

Zong Youfang, who was sitting firmly in the Diaoyutai, asked quietly: "Then what should I do with what you want?" ”

"In a small sense, you should give Beihe a little color." The attendant said negatively. "Even if you can't fight, just scare them and know that my clan is not easy to bully."

"Oh, too." Zong Youfang nodded slightly. "It's been more than a month, and there should be a result no matter how we discuss, although we don't have to pay for our own food and accommodation, but the days are getting hotter day by day, and the official is indeed a little uncomfortable." Zong Youfang then said. "In this way, if you go to the Annan Rite Department and the Lord's Mansion tomorrow, you will say that the envoy can't wait for them to reply, and the day after tomorrow he will return to China, and he will be handed over to the cannon to talk about it as soon as it should be discussed in the future."

The news that Zong Youfang was going to return to China reached Zheng Gen's ears as soon as possible, and Zheng Gen obviously did not want to see the situation of the possible invasion of Zheng Jun next, so the main mansion Lifan, who deliberately held his troops still, quickly took the initiative to attack and found the state guesthouse.

"Why, the lord's mansion has finally reached a conclusion." Zong Youfang looked at the blue-skinned other party with a smile. "Such a coincidence, good, good, then the envoy should listen to the good news of Lord Bai first."

Li Fan Zhifan Bai Wuguang responded with a stern expression: "Meng Shangguo is wrongly loved, and I am willing to pay attention to the name, but my king does not have the intention of representing the Li clan, I am afraid it will go against the good intentions of King Xia." ”

Zong Youfang sighed and said: "Emperor Ming will not let Chan give up the emperor to the king of Xia, and the king of Xia also takes into account that the king of Dingnan has called himself a nephew, so he wants to make Annan suffocated, but he didn't expect that the king of Dingnan will abide by the righteousness of the monarch and ministers." ”

Bai Wuguang was drenched in cold sweat when he said this, didn't this clearly say that Zheng Kezhang was a usurper, and Lord Zheng of Annan would never follow suit? This is even more powerful than slapping your face in the face, if this is really the case, maybe as soon as Zong Youfang goes back, Zheng Jun will come to Beihe.

Therefore, Lifan Fu Ruan Zhiwei immediately made a statement and corrected: "Although the king of Dingnan does not want to stand on behalf of Li, he is still quite grateful for the kindness of the king of Xia, so he has agreed to the second of the three articles mentioned by the envoy before, and open Duobang (Langshan), Hu, Rongshi, and Cen Shan as treaty ports to facilitate the exchange of merchants between the two countries. ”

"That's good news." Zong Youfang said that it was good news, but the smile on his face just now was not at all now. "It's just that the envoy mentioned three items, and you only approved one, which means that the other two, you have already denied them, okay, in this way, the envoy will return to China and explain it to King Xia."

Zong Youfang said simply, but this was clearly a threat of war, so Bai Wuguang, who was disgruntled, coughed lightly: "Master Zong, in fact, Article C is also easy to discuss, the main mansion thinks"

"Wait!" Zong Youfang interrupted. "The envoy remembers that when I talked to Escort Mo about the two articles of Escort Mo, I only allowed and did not allow it, and there was no way to discuss, could it be that Escort Mo didn't make it clear when he passed the message, or maybe the two adults didn't understand?"

"This?" Bai Wuguang and Ruan Zhixuan, you look at me, I look at you, each other's eyes are full of helplessness, although Zheng Zhu has set a tone, B and C can agree, but they still want to try to fight with Zong Youfang, even if they can't get it, they can force Zong Youfang to give in on the conditions of Article A, but they think well, but Zong Youfang doesn't dance according to the rhythm of Beihe at all, and they have no choice but to retreat to the end. "Since Master Zong insists, then the small country of Beihe can do this, so I have to agree."

"The two adults are really good at laughing, is this what the envoy forced the two to agree?" Zong Youfang looked extremely aggrieved, and the two of them were not fake. "If you feel wronged, you can not agree, and if you want to come to Xia Wang Rende, you will not bully people with power."

How is it possible not to bully people with power, Bai Wuguang, who was slandered, had no choice but to smile and say: "King Xia is benevolent and virtuous, and I and other small countries are also self-aware, how dare I misunderstand King Xia's good intentions, but what your envoy said at the beginning, my country really can't agree, and I also ask your envoy to be kind in front of King Xia after returning to China." ”

"Why can't you say yes?" Zong Youfang asked knowingly. "Gaoping is the land of the Mo clan, the Mo clan still has a lot of stubborn resistance, and it is beneficial and disadvantageous for the lord to surrender to my domain, as for Langshan, if it is still for your country6, it is inconvenient to open your mouth, if it is assigned to my domain, it is also good to trade back and forth, of course, my domain will not ask for your land in vain, the previous agreement is still valid, as long as your country transfers the above territory, as soon as firearms and gunpowder are shipped."

"Whether it is Gaoping or Xuanjiang, all parts of our dynasty are obtained by the blood of our ancestors, and I want to exchange thousands of bird guns and dozens of cannons, is Daming's abacus too fine." Bai Wuguang couldn't bear it anymore and responded in a cold tone. "Even if the number of weapons you provide is added to a zero, our dynasty will never give it up."

"That's right," Zong Youfang also sneered. "This official remembers that the Hou Li Dynasty stole the land of Annan Bu from the hands of the Ming Dynasty to establish the country, and the Ding Dynasty was also split from my China, so to speak, the so-called bloody land of your country is all taken from China, and my army Feng is also famous!"

Seeing that the talks were about to collapse, Ruan Zhihuan hurriedly jumped up and pretended to be a peacemaker: "Don't misunderstand, Lord Bai doesn't mean that an inch of land can't be discussed, it's just that you asked for Daning last time, and the main mansion has already given it, and this time you ask for Gaoping and the north of the Xuanjiang River, and the small country of Annan, so it can withstand such encroachment." ”

Zong Youfang immediately reprimanded: "How happy were you when you encroached on China, and you couldn't stand it if you changed it?" ”

Ruan Zhiwei just waved his hands and said: "Annan is small, and it is not as good as the Heavenly Empire. ”

Zong Youfang snorted lightly: "This official once said that it can be discussed, but you obviously don't want to discuss, then it's okay, you don't need to discuss, come here, send off guests, in addition, tomorrow we will go back, and then make an appointment with Holland Hongyi, tell them that if they don't cut off foreign trade with Beihe, don't buy goods from this domain."

"Is that what the envoy said?" Zheng Gen shook his head as he listened to the words of the two ceremonial officials. "You should let Honglu Temple go, you are not his opponent." As soon as these words came out, Bai Wuguang and Ruan Zhixuan's faces burned, but Zheng Gen didn't pay attention to their faces. "You don't know, it's troublesome now."

Troubled? It's troublesome enough, what more trouble can be compared to?

But the two of them thought wrongly, in fact, the trouble had just begun, so they listened to Zheng Genyan: "Fuchun (Hue) doesn't know where to know that Lone is talking to Da Ming secretly, and not long ago, Lone's uncle also sent someone to Cam Lan further south, and now the whole Fu Chun is crazy, saying that the main government is preparing to go south again to pacify the Nguyen clan and then establish himself as the emperor, and now Nguyen Fu Chun's kid has ordered to gather 100,000 troops, ready to defeat Lone's southern expedition army first, and then return to the division to defeat Ming Zheng's power in Cam Lanh." ”

"What?" The two looked at Zheng Gen dumbfounded, how could things be like this. "It's the wind of the Ming people." Bai Wuguang, who came to his senses, reasoned as a matter of course. "It must be the Ming people who are making trouble in it, it's extremely hateful!"

"Even if you know that Uncle Lone sent someone to make trouble, what can you do?" Zheng Gen shook his head, he could use a soldier to fight the Guangnan army on the front line of the Great Wall, but he didn't have the courage to fight the Ming Zheng army at all. "Now that the war between the North and the South is imminent, the main mansion can no longer be at odds with the north."

Ruan Zhiwei understood a little, and immediately asked: "The minister understands, and the minister will go to negotiate with the Ming envoy." ”

"First of all, we must get the north to promise to give away ordnance and ammunition immediately," Zheng Geen said. "Bai Qing doesn't have to go, so as not to be unhappy again." As soon as these words came out, Bai Wuguang's expression froze suddenly, but Zheng Gen's words were not finished. "Ruan Qing, since Bai Qing has already said that every inch of mountains and rivers is the blood of my Annan soldiers, when Qing negotiates with the Ming envoy, he still has to fight on the basis of reason."

Ruan Zhiwei replied: "The minister understands"

"What Gaoping can't talk about, the north of the Xuanjiang River can be delivered to this domain." Looking at Ruan who came back, Zong Youfang suddenly laughed. "Is there something wrong, no, the official is too careful, but I'm afraid it's not enough to just let the north of the Xuanjiang River, so it's okay, I'll settle the things that have been negotiated first, and talk about the rest slowly."

On the first day of April in the first year of Ming Taishun, Ming Zheng and Beihe reached the "Treaty of Shenglong", also known as the "Wuyin Four Ports Trade Treaty".

When Lord Zheng of Bac Ha agreed to open up the four places of Duobang (Lang Son), Ho, Rong City, and Cen Son as treaty ports, and allowed Ming Zheng to establish a Guoxin embassy in Thang Long and set up consular ‖ in the four treaty ports, Lord Zheng promised to grant the Ming and Zhu the right to adjudicate affairs, the right to price foreign trade goods, and the diplomatic rights of Bac Ha to the countries of Taixi and Thailand, and promised that without the consent of the Ming and Zheng Customs, Bac Ha would not arbitrarily increase customs duties, and the Ming hemorrhoids would continue to enjoy the privileges of exempting foreign trade ships from berthing regulations.

At the same time, in view of the fact that many states were opened as treaty ports, the two sides redefined the national borders, and the tributaries of the Zuojiang River, the Pinghe River, flowed into the territory of Annam, and the mountainous areas in the north of the river and the border people during the period of secular residence were reclassified under the Ming Dynasty.

Through the signing of this treaty, the Zheng Emperor obtained the right to set up a pilgrimage envoy in Guangzhou, and received a large amount of ordnance and gunpowder from the Ming and Zheng sides and sold them. Relying on such a large number of firearms as his waist, Zheng Gen, the king of Dingnan, immediately recruited troops and assembled on the front line of the Great Wall in the south. At the same time, at the request of Lord Zheng, Ming Zheng's Western fleet also began to cruise intensively off the coast of Quang Nam, ready to cooperate with Lord Zheng in a big fight anytime and anywhere.
