Chapter 823: Please Peace
Calm and tense, this is the situation that Yang Meng has faced for more than a month, this is the case at home, and the same is true in the Beijing and Tianjin areas.
Wei Huozi showed weakness on his side, and the Anglo-French coalition army did not think of breaking through, but the damage caused by the breakthrough was too great, whether it was the Qing army or the Anglo-French coalition army, they all welcomed the calm situation, once they broke through, the Anglo-French coalition army had to fight for their lives, and in order to prevent the Anglo-French coalition from breaking through, the Qing army also had to fight for their lives.
What is the purpose of the Qing Kingdom, William? Baga and Mikhail knew very well that there was no problem for Mikhail to sue for peace, they were just Russian mercenaries, and peace and war were between Britain and France and the Qing State, and had nothing to do with him, the commander of the mercenaries.
But please and to William? For Baga, it is a little unbearable, such a decision is not something he can lead, defeat and peace, I am afraid that the lion of the Qing Congress will open his mouth, such a dirty errand is still left to the politicians!
A breakout would lead to a war, stationed in place, and the two sides would not invade each other. Baga also has a deep understanding that now the weather is gradually getting warmer, and if the fight continues, the Tucheng of Beitang will collapse under the erosion of temperature, and once the Tucheng collapses, the British and French forces will face the risk of annihilation.
Quietly waiting for peace to come, is it William? The only thing Baga and the Anglo-French forces could do was left.
The wait did not last long, and the peace negotiation team headed by Minister Plenipotentiary of England Bonham took two months to arrive in the area of Beijing and Tianjin. Baga or Yang Meng are satisfied.
The note of the peace talks reached Yang Meng's hands, and Yang Meng did not give the British and French troops too many small shoes to wear, and released Zhangjiawan's Yilu and McMahon. Yang Meng in Wei Huozi's military camp. Met with the peace-seeking delegation headed by Bonham.
"This war is a war between our side and England and France. It has nothing to do with Tsarist Russia, since the Russian mercenaries participated in the war, whether it is mediation or peace, there is no part of Tsarist Russia! ”
Yang Meng's main purpose is also very clear, and Britain and France suppressed Tsarist Russia, Britain and France have many colonies overseas, there are conditions for cooperation, and for the land of Tsarist Russia and the land occupied by Tsarist Russia before. Yang Meng has considerable ambitions, and the war with Britain and France can be stopped, can Tsarist Russia? Wait!
"You're discriminating!"
Putiyatin, the negotiator of Tsarist Russia, was also furious, thinking that sending mercenaries this time could give a piece of the Qing country, but who would have thought that the war would be a fiasco?
100,000 Russian mercenaries are not garbage soldiers, they are all elite! 70,000 people were killed. I am afraid that Britain and France will not bear this account lightly.
"Whatever you want! If you want to negotiate, you should expel the officials of Tsarist Russia. Otherwise, we'll keep fighting! ”
The first meeting ended in such a hurry, Yang Meng's attitude made Wen Xian frown, the meaning of this Qing Yang Butang couldn't be clearer, this is to divide Britain, France and Tsarist Russia!
Throw the mess to Wen Xian and Yilu, Yang Meng did not meet with the French minister Andre to talk in detail, Andre can serve as the minister of France, it is a good choice for Yang Meng, the railway over there in Annam still has to be built, and the railway in the mountainous area is not impossible to build with the wisdom of the Qing Dynasty alone, but it takes a lot of time, and now Yang Meng wants speed, and there is not enough time, so he can only collect the wisdom of the world.
For a Yunnan-Vietnam railway, it is enough to cease the war, no matter how big the plan, it can't compare to the development of the country, as long as there is real strength, what plan can't be done?
Winning the peace negotiation is an errand that makes people poke the backbone, and the initial negotiations or the follow-up clappers are all Yang Meng's words, but the Qing Dynasty still has to come out and take responsibility.
This time back to Beijing, Yang Meng did the train, more than two months, the railroad track connecting Beijing and Tianjin, barely laid, as for whether to rework, that is not Yang Meng to care about, now time is the most important.
All the way to the noon gate by train, Yang Meng first went to the military aircraft, Ye Mingchen is good, he has already erected the majesty of the military aircraft first assistant, and now Ye Mingchen's power in Beijing is not comparable to Mu Zhang'a back then, Mu Zhang'a's head was suppressed by Emperor Daoguang, and now the imperial decrees are all from the Beijing Ye Mansion!
"Grandpa is here!"
For Yang Meng, the grandfather of the country, the military aircraft is also extremely awe-inspiring, if it is said that in the capital, who can suppress the domineering Ye Mingchen, it must be Yang Laosan, the prince of the town, but unfortunately this Yang Laosan is bent on fading out of the center of power, so that Ye Mingchen, the only husband of Mu Ne, occupies the position of power in Beijing.
"Hmmm! The British and French forces asked for peace, Ye Zhongtang discussed with the military planes, and after having a ministerial discussion, it was presented to the emperor! ”
After leaving such a sentence, Yang Meng did not stop, and went straight to the East Warm Pavilion, these days the four-color stick suffered from the wind cold, bedridden, in Yang Meng's view, this is the limit of the four-color stick is coming, indulge in lust, this is a sign of the lamp running out!
Under the guidance of An Dehai to the East Warm Pavilion, too many people were sent out of the imperial city by Yang Meng, although winter Japan is bleak, but the bleakness in the imperial city is not a winter day that can be explained.
"Your Majesty, are you feeling better?"
After the blue-faced four-color stick was woken up by An Dehai, his expression was very unhappy, it should be his privilege to sleep until he woke up naturally, when would a eunuch be able to disturb the emperor's sleep?
"Oh...... The third brother is here! ”
But after seeing Yang Meng, the anger of the four-color stick disappeared in a flash, and the third brother was the greatest!
"Your Majesty, there is good news, the British and French forces are defeated by our Great Qing Division, please make peace!"
"Good! is worthy of being the third brother, and he has conquered the British and French in a few months, and I have no mind to deal with this matter of peace, so the third brother will deal with it! ”
The four-color stick wanted to go out to show off his might, but his body was not bone, and now he has to work hard to get off the ground, and it is even more difficult to get out!
"This matter is still left to Prince Zheng and Ye Zhongtang! It's good to be on the side! ”
Of course, Yang Meng will not agree to this matter, the matter of asking for peace, involves the dignity of a country, although this peace will not lose power and humiliate the country, but it also has no good reputation, let the tiger return to the mountain, Britain and France During this time, I am afraid that it will not be lightly stopped.
"Alas...... Third brother! When is this, you still want to avoid suspicion, and it will be done! Let Duanhua and Ye Mingchen run errands! The third brother takes care of some more. Don't let these two minions. Lost the national body of the Qing Dynasty!
I'm tired. If the third brother is willing to play, feel free! Andehai waits for you! ”
Today's four-color stick has very poor energy, four or five a day some time ago, not to mention people, even if you get a cow to go up, you have to finish playing, if it weren't for the medicine of the hospital, the four-color stick would have died on the woman's belly.
"Retire! An Dehai, bring the imperial doctor who diagnosed the emperor's pulse, you have something to ask! ”
"Whoa......
An Dehai smiled and bowed. Let's go down and ask for a doctor.
Although the palace is a little bleak, but the heart cultivation hall is still very lively, waiting for the interval of the imperial doctor, Yang Meng turned around, always felt that this place is not suitable for people, it is as gloomy as a prison.
"Grandpa!"
"Hmmm! Get up! What is the Emperor's recent pulse? ”
"This ......"
The emperor's pulse is not something that can be said casually, the emperor's life and death, now it involves the battle for the throne, Yang Meng is a foreign minister. Such a question is not answered lightly by the hospital.
"If you say it, you say it. Even His Majesty has to listen to Grandpa Guo, Ma said! ”
An Dehai went to give the old lady a kick, this slave is not interesting, but the surname Yang is in the future, and he doesn't treat Yang Sanye as a dish, is this looking for death?
"Anderhai! You step aside! You will tell me the emperor's pulse in detail, in a month or two, the Mongolian prince will be in the audience, and the emperor cannot meet the Mongolian prince in a sick state! ”
Even in the face of the imperial doctor, Yang Meng didn't want to leave anything to say, meeting the Mongolian prince was the last task of the four-color stick, and it must be completed.
"Grandpa, if you recuperate slowly, your majesty can still have a three-five-year lifespan, if you use fierce medicine, I am afraid that it will greatly damage your majesty's longevity!"
When it comes to military affairs, the imperial doctor has nothing to say, the emperor can't lie sick to meet the Mongolian princes, this is a matter of national body, the imperial doctors of the imperial hospital, not only have to be proficient in medicine, this book can not be read less.
"If you strengthen the essence, how long can it last, and how is the essence?"
Traditional Chinese medicine is broad and profound, although today's Chinese medicine is far from being able to save the life and help the wounded, but it is not comparable to later generations, just a non-toxic secret medicine, it is not a later generation of Chinese medicine can get out, the decline of Chinese medicine is also with the decline of Confucianism, Confucianism is this thing, amazing!
"If it is with deer blood and deer fetus, with some great tonic medicines, supplemented by gold needles, His Majesty can be restored as before, but this longevity is as short as three or five months, and as long as seven or eight months......"
"It's enough, will it endanger Shouyuan if you use fierce medicine? Can you raise it again? ”
"No! That would only endanger His Majesty ......"
"Oh...... Calculate the time, it's almost time for the little brother to be born, arrange it! The social welfare is important, and this matter must be kept secret! ”
"Know ......"
This kind of thing is too much for the hospital to do, but it was arranged by the clan and the concubines in the past, but now that the prince has changed, the imperial doctor has not questioned it much, and it is easy to put the words of state affairs at any time.
"An Dehai, how are those people training?"
"Master, I did everything you said, and now it's vivid!"
Sending away the imperial doctor, Yang Meng greeted An Dehai again, the four-color stick is dead, he can't let the small one take the throne, even if the small one is his seed, there will be death and injury if he usurps it, and Yang Meng doesn't want to be a bad tiger who eats children until the last resort.
"Hmmm! Hurry up, the Mongol kings are coming, and when the time comes, I can't say that they will still come in handy! ”
An Dehai is still too young and has seen too few things, and if he does this, he will be a dead end, including the imperial doctor, I am afraid that he will not live long.
"Whoa......
After walking An Dehai, Yang Meng also walked around the palace at will, and now the emperor's concubines, only the queen and Concubine Yi are left, Concubine Li's uninteresting ones have already sold Yang Meng to the drunken floating building in Yunnan, the imperial concubine! Many people want to try it.
When he arrived at the queen's side, Yang Meng asked her about her pulse, since Yang Meng changed the diet of the imperial city, the four-color stick and his concubines were stained, and they naturally looked better if they ate well.
"Where did Concubine Li go?"
Holding his increasingly bulging belly, Niu Colu's question was also direct.
"Drunken Floating Building!"
"Shameless!"
"Father!"
"What will I do in the future? If you gave birth to a seed of sin, do you want to sell it to the drunken floating building? ”
Where Concubine Li goes, Niu Colu doesn't care, what she cares about is what happens to her in the future?
"Look at your watch! Now that the British and French are also kneeling in front of Lao Tzu, what are you going to do? ”
The women in the palace are not as good as those women in Yang Meng's back house, Concubine Yi's ambition is leaking, this button Cobalt Lu is not a fuel-efficient lamp, how to deal with these two, Yang Meng is also a little undecided, those who are happy every day, Yang Mengzi should be shopping in the building, but these two are pregnant with the blood of the Yang family, and they get drunk floating building, but they are a little inauthentic!
"Master, the slave and maid will serve people, as long as the master says something, there is nothing that the slave and maid will not do!"
"Get up, don't hurt the fetus, the child in your belly is your best talisman, no child, the result is clear, maybe in the future Lao Tzu will be in the three eastern provinces, get you a comfortable nest?"
Niu Colu knelt, and Yang Meng, who was kneeling, frowned, it is not a good thing for this woman to be able to bend and stretch, and it is not a way to solve the problem by sending her to the three eastern provinces in the future, after all, the banner people there still need to be led by someone.
"Then the slave will thank you!"
Maybe that's the best future! Now the Niu Colu clan doesn't dare to fight for anything, the emperor has suppressed Yang Laosan to the death, and he can only save his life by compromising everything!
"Teach Concubine Yi, you two are all the way!" (To be continued......)
