The day before yesterday, the news that the regent entered the palace and quarreled with the queen mother came out of the palace out of nowhere.

On that day, so many guards witnessed the process, and I heard that the emperor was also frightened. At a time when the contradictions between the regent and the three banners are becoming more and more clear, it is difficult to hide these things.

On the surface, the conflict between the queen mother and the regent stemmed from the disagreement with Modong Mongolia. In fact, it was the anxiety caused by the Qing Dynasty after losing control of the grasslands......

The Queen Mother urgently summoned several princes of the Two Yellow Banners, Baylor, and openly strengthened the guards of the palace. This is after the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, the three flags of Shangsanqi did not have the permission of Dolgon, and made a self-reaction. Whether the palace guards are military or not may have different opinions in the eyes of different people.

Da Yu'er made many concessions, but she had a reverse scale, and no one could touch it, otherwise she would not die. That day, Dorgon frightened the little emperor. After he left the palace, Fulin had nightmares all night in his mother's bedroom.

The banner men on the streets of Beijing, the guards at the city gates, all widened their eyes and pricked up their ears, paying close attention to the movements of the Regent's Palace. Three days passed, and the gates of the Regent's palace were filled with messengers coming and going from all over the world every day, but their worst fears were not realized.

Dolgon endured, and both he and Da Yu'er needed to put out the anger in their hearts so that they could have the next meeting. The leaky ship-like Qing Dynasty can't stand the toss.

Qian Qianyi didn't want to inquire about any news, but those terrifying rumors seemed to be drilling into his ears.

The Qing Dynasty was governed by Dolgon, and the little emperor of Shunzhi did not go to court, and these Hanchens who came to Beijing from the south of the Yangtze River had no power, and they ended up idle every day.

Before his mission to Nanjing, he often went out to drink tea with a few friends who were sick and sympathetic, and secretly discussed current affairs in various places. After returning from Nanjing, he didn't dare to go out again. There was a Ming spy at home, and every time he saw a Jurchen soldier passing by on the street directly opposite the door, his heart immediately hung up.

There is no impermeable wall in the world

However, Liu Ru was like a nobody, and often went to the mansions of several Hanchen to talk to those ladies. Qian Qianyi guessed that she might take the opportunity to pass on the news while she was out. He was afraid, but he couldn't control her.

The situation in Beijing is unfolding in the direction predicted by Zhao Yucheng. The two of them are grasshoppers on the same rope, and if Liu Ru is exposed, Dolgon will definitely cut off his rank.

In the afternoon of this day, the scorching sun was rising, the willow tree at the door was hanging and wilting, and a big yellow dog was lying on the stone pier at the entrance of the Qian Mansion and opened its mouth and stuck out its tongue. The streets are sparsely populated, and vendors doze off in the shade of trees.

A man in a military attache uniform came to the door of the Qian Mansion and shook the knocker vigorously.

The servant, who was resting on the gatehouse, was awakened and walked over to pull the bolt of the door. The two doors opened a crack, and he saw that it was a Jurchen man coming outside, and his face was instantly full of flattering smiles, opened the door, and bent down: "Master, who are you looking for?" ”

"Is Qian Shilang at home?" The Jurchen was very rude, pushed him aside, and shouted: "What door is closed in broad daylight, are you doing something unseemly?" ”

The servant staggered after being pushed, steadied his heels, and then said: "Is the master here to find the master, the master is in the house, and the slave is going to report." ”

The Han people didn't dare to be much of an official, and when they saw the Jurchens, they were all slaves. This is especially true of the servants who guard the door.

The Jurchens stood in the shade of the gatehouse and waited as the servant ran to the back house with a puff of smoke.

Qian Qianyi is old and lacks energy, and he was taking a nap after lunch and was awakened from his sleep. The servant panicked and said that he didn't understand, and didn't ask for the identity of the person who came

There was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping in the house, and Liu Ru heard the movement and also walked out of the back room.

Who didn't dare to come, as long as it was a Jurchen, Qian Qianyi couldn't afford to offend, so he hurriedly put on his coat and went out with his servants to greet him.

When he came to the gatehouse and saw someone coming, he was slightly stunned, and bent down and arched his hand: "Su Wanyan Gong, why are you here?"

The person who came was Su Wanyan, a first-class prince with a yellow flag, and he was also an imperial party with a clear brand. He had gone south to Nanjing with Dordor, and was later transferred back to Beijing by Dolgon, but he did not expect to escape.

"Qian Shilang, I have something to ask you" Su Wanyan didn't wait for Qian Qianyi's invitation, and walked straight towards the living room opposite.

Qian Qianyi ordered his servants to close the door, followed Su Wanyan, and came to the hall.

The servants were busy serving tea.

Su Wanyan didn't look at it, sat on the Taishi chair on his right hand, and asked: "Qian Shilang, there are many rumors in Beijing today, and I came to the house to confirm one thing." Is the Ming court really willing to negotiate peace with me? His eyes were blazing, and Qian Qianyi, who was stabbing like a knife, lowered his head.

Qian Qianyi hesitated: "You shouldn't ask me about this matter, the regent has his own ideas." ”

Su Wanyan suddenly took off his waist knife and slapped it on the desk, there was a loud "pop" on the table, the white porcelain cup jumped up and fell on the table, and the hot tea that had just been brewed was spilled everywhere.

Qian Qianyi was startled, leaned back in his upper half, and was speechless.

"Qian Shilang, if you don't say something clear today, I Su Wanyan and you will be incompatible. I asked you, you asked me to ask the regent, hum, what a good idea

Qian Qianyi was staying, and there was a crisp laugh from behind, Liu Ru turned out of the back porch, and said with a smile: "Su Wanyan Gong, what's wrong, why is there such a big resentment here." ”

She has been circling in the pile of men for a long time, as long as she is willing to be accompanied by a smile, and her gestures make people feel like a spring breeze, and there are really few people who can treat her with a bad face.

Su Wanyan's eyes were a little straight when he turned around, he reached out to straighten the teacup, and said in a soothing tone: "I just came to confirm one thing, but Qian Shilang shirked with me, which made Mrs. laugh."

"What did Su Wanyan ask about? The master knows and doesn't tell you, you are so angry, I'm afraid that what others know will also be forgotten by you

Liu Ru is clothes swayed, and when she walked to Qian Qianyi's side, she smiled unabated, and her words were very polite.

Su Wanyan was angry with Qian Qian, but he didn't have a temper at all in the face of Liu Rus, and repeated: "So that Madame knows, I want to ask the former waiter if the rumors outside about the Ming Court's willingness to negotiate peace with the Qing Dynasty are true." ”

Qian Qianyi turned his head to look at Liu Ruyi, but Liu Ruyi didn't look at him, and said with a smile on his face and Su Wanyan: "How can there be an impermeable wall in the world, the regent ordered the lord not to talk nonsense, and those who have a heart can still find a way to fight."

She didn't answer directly, but she actually confirmed that the rumor was true.

"Shaanxi and Henan are places that can't be guarded, so what about ceding them to the Ming court?" Su Wanyan gritted his teeth and muttered to himself, and he asked Qian Qianyi again: "If the imperial court agrees to negotiate peace with the Ming court, can Qian Shilang go and negotiate this matter with Zhai Zhe?" ”

Qian Qianyi opened his mouth and was about to speak, when Liu Ru's soft fingers suddenly put on his arm and said, "Look at what Su Wanyan asked, how can my lord be in charge of such a big matter, if you want to ask, you have to ask the regent."

Qian Qianyi nodded silently at Su Wanyan, and sighed in his heart: "You are really my nemesis."
