Entering the tent, Ezhe knelt down again with interest, and said to Hong Tai respectfully: "The vast desert, vast and thousands of miles, it is better to have a broad mind than the Great Khan; There are thousands of horses on the grassland, and it is not as good as the fierce generals under the Great Khan's tent. The criminal minister has long heard the name of the Great Khan, and has long had the intention of returning to obedience, which is tortuous and indescribable, and today he has returned, and finally fulfilled his wish, and the criminal minister's wish will finally take effect and be loyal to the Great Khan, the sea is dry and the stone is rotten, and his heart remains unchanged. ”

Ezhe's deference made Hong Taiji satisfied, and said to him: "Jurchen and Mongolia are one, since ancient times, the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. Ezhe, you are young and heroic, worthy of the golden bloodline, Ben Khan has a daughter Gulun Princess, who was born to Ben Khan and Dafu Jin Zhezhe, and now I give you as a wife, I don't know what you think? ”

Mrs. Hong wants to recruit herself as a son-in-law?

Ezhe was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed, and said: "The criminal minister is already cornered, it is enough to be able to get a body under the Great Khan's tent, how dare you climb the peak of the Great Khan?" ”

Hong Taifu Jin Zhezhe already knew that her husband wanted to marry Princess Gulun to Ezhe, and she was also pleasing to this son-in-law, she was originally a Mongolian Borzigit clan, and she was naturally happy that her daughter could marry Ezhe, who had the blood of Genghis Khan's golden family, and immediately stepped forward and took Sutai's hand and smiled: "Did you hear, the King of Khan wants to give my Gulun princess to Ezhe, how about it, are you willing?" ”

On the other hand, Zhezhe's niece Bumu Butai also smiled: "Ezhe is a British talent, and Princess Gulun marrying him can be regarded as a good match." (Author's note: Bumu Butai, that is, Xiaozhuang, known as Da Yuer)

Su Tai never expected to get such courtesy, she thought of everything on the way to see Mrs. Hong, and thought that Mrs. Hong would not treat her and her son badly, but she didn't expect Mrs. Hong to marry her daughter to her son, and couldn't help but burst into tears with excitement: "Being able to marry the Great Khan is the luck of the slave maid for three lives, Ezhe, don't hurry up and meet your father-in-law." ”

Ezhe hurriedly bowed and said: "The son-in-law kowtows to his father-in-law, and wishes his father Khan long live, long live, long live." ”

Hong was overjoyed, Ha Lu Ha Da laughed, and said loudly to the ministers of Baylor: "Have a banquet, and you will have to drink happily today." He also said to Zhezhe and other blessings: "You also have to accompany the Empress Dowager Sutai." ”

After the banquet, Su Tai and Ezhe were arranged by Zhezhe to rest, and Hong Tai also drank a lot of wine and was a little drunk, but he did not sleep there, but discussed with Fan Wencheng in the tent the date of the ceremony of returning the jade seal to gold.

"Mr. Wen Cheng, what day do you think the ceremony is set on?" Hong Tai's hand was on the tea bowl, and he couldn't make up his mind. There was a charcoal fire in the tent, coupled with the smell of alcohol in his body, Hong Tai's fat body sweated a lot and was very dry.

Fan Wencheng pondered for a moment and said: "King Khan, since the defeat of the Yuan Dynasty and the desert, its court is still there, during which more than three hundred years, Tatar and Warat are all in the name of the descendants of Genghis Khan, Chahar is recognized by various Mongolian tribes as the authentic descendants of Genghis Khan, and Lin Dan Khan is the most descendant of the Yuan. Lin Dan Khan died, Ezhe returned to Jin, and the Northern Yuan Dynasty was completely destroyed. Ezhe's dedication to the seal is equivalent to offering the supreme power of the Great Yuan Kingdom. The Khan's acceptance of the jade seal should be compared to the concession between the emperors of the old dynasty and the emperor of the new dynasty in the Central Plains. Therefore, this ceremony is the emperor's Zen canon, and the minister thinks that this day should also take the number of five or ten. ”

Hong Tai nodded and said: "The various tribes of Northern Mongolia may not be able to catch up with the fifth day of the first month, well, then the tenth day of the first month, what do you think?" ”

"It's good in time, and it's auspicious." Set on the tenth day of the first month, Fan Wencheng has no objection.

Mrs. Hong was a little worried: "I don't know what the weather is like on the tenth day of the first month?" ”

"The minister asked Bao Chengxian, and Bao Chengxian told the minister that the weather was good in early November."

Hearing Fan Wencheng's affirmative reply, Mrs. Hong suddenly smiled: "Then it's set on the tenth day of the first month." As he spoke, he took a sip of the tea bowl and said with a smile: "It's a pity that I'm not here, if he is, maybe he will have some ideas." ”

Fan Wencheng said: "Kong Youde's return to gold is also a major event, its significance is second only to the return of jade seals to gold, Yichen's understanding of Ning Wan, if he chooses one of the two to participate in the ceremony and recruit Kong Youde, he will definitely choose the latter." Speaking of this, he said with some admiration, "Ning Wan's talents are not under the ministers, sometimes, the ministers are ashamed of him, and the king of Khan should be of great use to him." ”

"You don't have to be modest, I'm in a hurry with Lao Bao, if it weren't for you, the relationship between Ben Khan and his brothers would not be easy to reconcile. If Ning finishes me, I am Zhang Liang of Ben Khan, and you are Xiao He of Ben Khan, hehe. "Mrs. Hong is right, in his opinion, Ning Wan me and Fan Wencheng are his own Zhang Liang and Xiao He.

With Mrs. Hong's approval, Fan Wencheng was naturally happy, and was about to be humble again, when Ao Bai, who was guarding outside the tent, came to report: "King Khan, Haugbel asks to see." ”

Hauge? Mrs. Hong was a little puzzled: What was he doing so late? But he still instructed Aobai: "Let him in." ”

"Son-in-law, please give your father Khan!"

After Haoge came in, he first greeted Mrs. Hong and then asked Fan Wencheng's An, and stood there, wanting to say something.

Seeing this, Fan Wencheng knew that Hao Ge probably had something important to say to Mrs. Hong, but it was inconvenient for him to say it here. Then he got up and said to Hong Tai: "King Khan, it's too late, the minister should go back, please rest early." ”

Hong Tai raised his hand to stop him, and then said, "Mr. Wencheng, you sit on yours and don't get in the way." Glancing at Haoge, Zhengse said: "If you have anything to say, it doesn't hurt for you to talk about it, Mr. Wencheng is not an outsider, you have to ask Mr. Wencheng for more advice on everything in the future, and you want to treat him as your teacher, do you know the way." ”

"Yes, father Khan, son and son know the way."

Haoge knew that his father trusted Fan Wencheng, but what he wanted to say could not let outsiders know about it, so he hesitated for a while before he said: "Father Khan, the son of the minister looks at the tiger step of Ezhelong, and he looks like a nobleman, and he is afraid that he will be troubled in the future." ”

Well?!

Haoge's words shocked Hong Tai's heart, and his brows furrowed, and he looked at him and said, "What do you mean?" ”

Hauge slashed down with his hand: "Cut the grass and remove the roots." ”

Fan Wencheng was shocked when he heard this, and turned his face to look at Mrs. Hong.

Haoge's opinion made Hong Tai a little moved: After all, Ezhe is after Lin Dan Khan, Jin and Chahar have been grudges for generations, and now Ezhe is desperate to vote for himself, but who can guarantee that he will not ...... in the future

But he quickly rejected this idea: no, Ezhe is a symbol of Mongolia, and now he has returned, and he can further unite the Mongolian tribes through him, and if he is killed, what will the Mongolian tribes think? What's more, he had just promised Princess Gulun to marry him in front of everyone during the day, how could he kill this son-in-law by going back on his word.

Thinking of this, Mrs. Hong's face turned cold, and she scolded Haoge and said, "Nonsense, come up with some nondescript bad ideas!" Turning his head to look at Fan Wencheng, "Mr. Wencheng, you tell him how we should treat Ezhe." ”

Seeing that Mrs. Hong would not kill Ezhe, Fan Wencheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and asked Haoge: "Haoge Belle, as the saying goes, raising a tiger is a problem, do you think Ezhe is still a tiger now?" ”

"Not now." Hauge shook his head, Ezhe is a worm now, if he were a tiger, he wouldn't have led his troops to vote.

"I don't think it will be in the future, Ezhe is like a dog who has lost his home, where will he be left behind? When the Mongolian tribes returned, we all treated each other with courtesy, and today Ezhe came to vote, and brought a jade seal, we have no reason to kill him. ”

Hauge pouted: "I didn't mean to kill, you can do it secretly." ”

"I don't think that's right. In the past, Lin Dan Khan had 400,000 people, all of whom were vulnerable, but now there are only more than 2,000 people in Ezhe, and the jade seal has been returned to gold, how can he command all the ministries? What else can be done? Fan Wencheng tried his best to keep his tone soft, so as not to have any dissatisfaction with him.

Hauge was still unconvinced: "How can others be allowed to sleep soundly next to the couch." ”

Hearing this, Mrs. Hong couldn't cry or laugh, and scolded: "People read history and can be inspired by it, but you read history but you read it on the evil road." ”

Haoge continued to argue: "Zhao Kuangyi forced Li Yu to death, and Yuan chased the little emperor of the Southern Song Dynasty and jumped into the sea, what is it for?" Because the last emperor and the crown prince are a banner for the remnants of the people, they have great appeal, but they cannot make a comeback, and they are often the roots and seedlings of trouble. ”

Hong Tai shook his fat body, and he wanted to teach this son well, he got up and said: "You are right, there are indeed many last emperors and princes in history who died miserably, but there are also those who have been courteous, and the little emperor of the Later Zhou Dynasty has been treated favorably by Zhao Song." Haoge, you must be bigger-minded, you must stand upright in the court, and you can't rule the country with treacherous techniques. The return of Ezhe as the crown prince of Chahar is of great significance, and the unification of southern Mongolia, which has been divided for hundreds of years, can be carried out. Father Khan not only did not kill him, but also gave him the highest courtesy, Father Khan wanted to reverse the practice of the emperors of the past dynasties to the king of the dead country, to make Ezhe the beloved son-in-law of his father Khan, and to let everyone in the world see the mind of Father Khan. ”

Haoge was still unwilling, he reminded Hong Taidao: "Father Khan, the son sees that he is reluctant to take shelter from the tiger's den, maybe there will be a resurgence in the future." ”

"But have you thought about it, if we kill Ezhe, what will the Mongolian tribes think of us, and will Mobei Mongolia still be obedient? All the Mongol tribes will be chilled, afraid, suspicious, and dissatisfied. Killing a Zhe will leave a regret that can never be remedied. It's good that you use your brain, but you can't go the wrong way. "Hong is so angry, Hauge is good at everything, he just doesn't listen to the right opinions, and he is much worse than his uncles.

Seeing that Hong was too angry, Haoge realized that he had thought clumsy, and he quickly lowered his head and said: "Erchen knows that he is wrong, and Erchen will think about the right path in the future." ”

"That's right."

After all, it is his own son, and Mrs. Hong will not be really angry with him, and she will teach him well in the future, he waved his hand and said, "You go down, don't talk to anyone about this matter." ”

"Yes, Father Khan."

After Haoge left, Hong Tai sighed and said to Fan Wencheng: "Ben Khan is busy with state affairs every day and neglects the teachings of Haoge, and I hope that Mr. Wencheng will enlighten him more in the future." ”

Fan Wencheng hurriedly said: "Young people are inevitably biased, and after sharpening themselves, they will grow up." ”

"Young? He was three years older than Dorgon. ”

As soon as Dolgon was mentioned, Hong Tai remembered the Mongol tribes in Mobei, and hurriedly shouted to Aobai who was guarding outside the tent: "Aobai, go and pass Dolgon to see you." ”
