According to Shuwen's dictation, Ablin quickly wrote in Russian the blank part of the second half of the "Minutes of the Meeting" that recorded his advice to Jidu—

"I, a merchant from the Bukhara Khanate, Shaitkul? Ablin, as Alexei, the lord of the Rakshasa Kingdom? The emissary of the 1st rank Mikhailovich, who led the Cossack chieftain Peter? Yarezhkin, the close vassal of the lord of the Rakshasa kingdom in Moscow, Fyodor? Ivanov, as deputy envoys, as well as several Cossack guards, came all the way east from Moscow, traveling to Tobolsk, Tomsk and other places, before entering the territory of the Great Qing State, to pay homage to His Majesty the Emperor of the Great Qing Dynasty, and convey the wishes and pleas of the lord of the Rakshasa Kingdom to claim the tribute......"

"Before leaving, I got the head of the ambassadorial corps, Fyodor of Tobolsk? Isakovic? In addition to the superficial trade and visits, Bajkov's instructions, in fact, as the forerunner of the ambassadorial group, my main task was to inquire in detail about the deployment of the Bogda Emperor's troops, the layout of the towns, and the situation of the inhabitants along the road, as well as his true attitude towards the continuous intrusion of the Rakshasa in the Far East...... All this, in my opinion, is nothing more than a despicable preparation for the next step in the continued encroachment on the entire Far East, and even in the vast areas south of the Great Wall......"

"But the Emperor Bogda, His Majesty the Great Qing Emperor, as well as his court, civil and military officials, treated us very favorably, and rewarded us with rich gifts. Therefore, we willingly abided by the due etiquette of all nations coming to the court, and performed three kneels and nine bows to His Majesty the Emperor and the temples of the clan......"

"Rarely, except for the town strongholds that my group passed along the way. Except for the secret reconnaissance work I carried out according to Baykov's instructions, the rest of the purpose seems to have been detected by His Majesty the wise Qing Emperor...... Apart from the cordial reception he received me and offered me a rich feast and gifts, he did not say anything about the coming in of the Far East, let alone his attitude towards it...... In desperation, and under the clamor of the Moscow minister Ivanov, we had to end the pilgrimage to the city of Khan Bali ahead of schedule and embark on the road back to the west, while meeting with the ambassador group Baykov and his party this morning, and remembering the stolen information to make a report......"

"We had no choice but to leave the Zhangjiakou generation, but we lost the direction of our way home. At this time, Ivanov was greedy. He actually planned to use the state gift given by the Bogda Emperor to Alexei, the lord of the Rakshasa country. Go to the Mongols' place and exchange it for gold, rhubarb, and silk, which are the favorite of the first class dukes......"

“…… My arguments are worthless in the presence of the courtier Ivanov...... So, we went all the way north to trespass into the forbidden land of the Eight Banners of the Great Qing Dynasty, broke into the Suwu Lake area of the Great Qing Kingdom, and were guests under the tent of His Excellency Jidu, the great general of Dingyuan, who was extremely friendly to the landlords. This is also a blessing in the midst of misfortune......"

"When General Jidu learned that I was carrying a letter from His Majesty the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty to the First Duke Alexei, the lord of the Rakshasa Kingdom. Treat us as guests. Food, clothing, housing and transportation are taken care of...... But my retinue, the courtier of Moscow, Fyodor? Ivanov, however, conspired to frame the good Chinese soldiers and troops. An attempt to direct the flames of war to this land, which has belonged to the emperors of China and Bogda since ancient times. You must know how shameful and self-defeating this is! So, me and my deputy Peter? Yaryzhkin decisively put him to death......"

"Even though I was guilty of murder. But the benevolent Qing general did not punish me, but understood the plight of me and my deputy, Yaryzhkin. It's just that we are worried about the Rakshasa lord Alesek? Mikhailovich, just because his favorite Ivanov died at my hands, is destined to harm us! Therefore, we consciously and voluntarily dismissed the idea of returning to Moscow, and were willing to serve the supreme Qing Emperor for the rest of our lives......"

"Not only that, but my assistant Yarezhkin and I are also willing to be part of the former Moscow mission to the Great Qing State on any occasion and at any time in the future, and truthfully state the desire of the Rakshasa Lord and the Moscow government to spy on Siberia and the Far East, as well as the encroachment of their subordinates, the so-called Far Eastern expeditions and local overseers on the territory of the Great Qing Kingdom, the cruel harm and oppression of the people under the command of the Bogda Emperor, and all kinds of cover-ups and quibbles made for this, And swear the veracity of these testimonies! ”

"I swear to Allah, Allah the Almighty, that henceforth I will swear allegiance to the Qing Kingdom and the Qing Emperor to the death. If you break your oath, you ......will be destroyed."

In the process of writing these words, Ablin was not submissive, and he couldn't help frowning at some key points. These details are all in Jidu's eyes.

Fortunately, Shuwen did not ask the two of them to complete every word according to his dictation, but gave them full leeway, especially the instructions of Moscow and the words and deeds of the head of the ambassadorial corps, Baykov, or mainly let Ablin himself write according to the truth. The advantage of this is that the entire confession is to the point everywhere, and it is not obvious that he was forced to write it helplessly, which is completely consistent with the theme of "consciously and voluntarily". Jidu on the side also learned a lot of information that he didn't know before, and some of them were even like five thunderbolts!

Later, Yarezhkin also concocted the same method, but he confessed more clearly about the key tasks he undertook, such as reconnaissance and deployment of troops, weapons and equipment, training and combat power assessment, etc., so as to highlight the different value of himself from Ablin.

Thus, the two Bukharans and Cossacks, who had just gotten rid of the name of "Rakshasas", learned from this that the wisdom of the Chinese is unfathomable, whether he is Han or Manchu, but all the people in that magical land must be full of "all kinds of wit" -

According to the custom of God's chosen people and Allah's people, although it is permissible to take an oath to God, it is also possible to confess again in the future to ask for God's forgiveness. But according to the requirements of the Chinese, the two really have no way back! This is a signed contract of sale!

After Yarezhkin also wrote down the oath with similar meaning, Ablin and Yaryzhkin were relieved, and handed the completed oath, or "deed of sale", to Shu Wen for inspection.

Shu Wenzai carefully inspected it, and then turned around and handed it to Jidu, nodding with certainty.

"Okay, book manwen!" Jidu was in a good mood and commanded happily.

"Huh!" Shu Wen also gladly accepted the order.

Soon, two pledges of allegiance, written in Manchu, Mongolian, and Russian, were on paper

"With the General's Seal!"

Ji Du gave an order, and personally stamped the huge official seal handed over by his own soldiers. Then, at the behest of Shu Wen, the two former "Rakshasa envoys", who are now counted as subjects of the Qing Dynasty, Ablin and Yarezhkin, signed their names respectively. In particular, Yaryzhkin, fearing that his confession would not be complete, took it upon himself to affix his own name seal - the fire seal of the family ring according to the custom of Westerners. While secretly scolding this person in his heart, he didn't know whether he was stupid or clever, and on the other hand, he had to concoct the same method and confirm the three signed and fire-stamped oath of allegiance.

Now that's all there is to it, and the only way to do it is to see the opportunity - Ablin has this in mind.

"Hahaha, good, good! Do you have any unfinished business, both of you? Ji Du looked at the entourage with satisfaction and put away the two vows in triplicate, and said contentedly.

"General, the rest of us is to obey your orders, and you are the only one who will take the lead." Ablin said flatteringly.

"Really? Haha...... "The joy of Jidu is undisguised at this time.

Taking advantage of Jidu's laughter at this moment, and he couldn't see anything wrong for a while, Ablin lost no time in asking in Mongolian at Shu Wen, who was standing on the side, in a low voice:

"Your Excellency Shuwen, where is Centurion Unqi? Why don't you see him? I wonder how his injuries were? He asked with courage, as if he were inquiring about the whereabouts of an old friend.

"A limerick poem? Hidden Head

Reading literature and reading history is only a long breath

I was saying that there was an opportunity back then

The layout is a long-cherished wish

It's hard to come and go

Get up and spend a hundred years

Point out the suffering and diseases of the world

The edge of the town was razed to the sea

Wen'an Wuding happy teardrops (to be continued......)
