"Great Khan, Yuxi Timur asks to see."

"Nope."

"Yes."

Looking at the back of the squire leaving, Timur hesitated slightly. Yuxi Timur's loyalty was impeccable, but there was no doubt about his uprightness. You don't even have to meet to know what Yuxi Timur was going to say.

"Great Khan." Next to him, Chancellor of the Exchequer Urban called.

Timur turned his head, and Urban hurriedly followed up on the previous topic, "I don't mean to be unfavorable to Lord Haoren, it's just that Mongolia is really difficult at the moment. Only let Hao Ren dedicate himself to the country. After all, the lord of the country swept away the traitors before, and this loyalty can be seen by the sun and the moon. ”

Urban was referring to Hao Ren's hard work in leading his troops to suppress the Ögedai Khanate and the Chagatai Khanate, which were thousands of miles away from the capital, and Kublai Khan could not do anything about them. Hao Ren led 20,000 soldiers to sweep the two khanates for more than a year, completely solving Kublai Khan's confidant. It also laid the foundation for Kublai Khan's westward migration and regaining control of the divided Kuritai Congress.

Great Khan Timur nodded slightly, this reason was the reason why Timur had summoned Hao Ren to Beijing in the first place. The reason why Kublai Khan, the former Great Khan, let Hao Ren supervise the state on the western border was to let Hao Ren contain the powerful Kipchak Khanate. Since the Qin Chadu saw the soldiers and horses of the Yuan State penetrating deep into the territory of the Kipchak Khanate, Timur wanted to control the balance. The Kipchak Khanate could not be expanded, and the Yuan State certainly could not eliminate and annex the Kipchak Khanate. This was not Kublai Khan's original arrangement.

Thinking of Hao Ren's hard work back then, Timur felt that Hao Ren was only forty years old now. If this uncle could live the same life as his grandfather Kublai Khan, he would have only just spent half of his life. Hao Ren still has plenty of time to serve Yuan Guo again.

Of course, it's not easy. Timur could imagine that Hao Ren would not give up the territory of the Yuan Kingdom, and if it was Timur himself, he would definitely refuse to hand over the territory. Blessed by the heavens of eternal life, Hao Ren arrived in Baghdad at this time.

Urban continued, "Great Khan, someone will definitely propose to let Hao Ren hand over more things and pull him down. That's a lie, and it's not feasible at all. ”

Timur nodded slightly. Anyone who has fought a war understands how difficult long-distance transportation really is. It is likely that less than a tenth of the supplies sent to the front line will be requisitioned. Raising the tribute was just an illusion, as if it would be able to transfer all the wealth of the Yuan Kingdom to the direct territory of the Great Khan. Actually, it can't be done at all.

"If you put the fiefdoms of the Chagatai Khanate and the Ögedai Khanate in the north of Tianzhu, it will be much warmer than in the north, and life will be better. Sealed the prince of Hao Ren to the territories of the Chagatai Khanate and the Ogedai Khanate. As for the land of the Yuan state, the Great Khan could go to Baghdad in the winter and the territory of the Yuan state after the beginning of spring. I wonder what the Great Khan thinks? Urban came up with his latest considerations.

Khan Timur was very happy with this plan, and this was the best situation. However, Timur did not speak, if this is the arrangement, then he must first make a move against the Ögedai Khanate and the Chagatai Khanate, and force the khans of these two khanates to obey. It was Hao Ren who took on this important task back then, and when I think about it, I don't know who can take on such a heavy responsibility among the talents under Timur.

"I wonder what the Great Khan thinks?" Urban asked tentatively.

"I ...... will send someone to ask Hao Ren first to see if he is willing to transfer the fief. Timur hesitated. If Hao Ren could have the loyalty to Kublai Khan back then, many things would be easier to do. Hao Ren sent troops to settle the Ögedai Khanate and the Chagatai Khanate for the second time, and invited the two khans to the southern part of the Great Khan's domain. Then Hao Ren and his men moved to the current territory of the Ögedai Khanate and the Chagatai Khanate, and Timur took over the current territory of the Yuan State. That's perfect. But this is highly unlikely.

"I'll ask Hao Ren." Urban pleaded excitedly.

Timur's face sank, and he replied, "Don't go!" ”

Urban was stunned, "Why?" ”

"Don't rush yet. I have my own opinions. Timur still hadn't made up his mind to move Hao Ren. No matter how beautiful the idea is, it is just an idea, and Kublai Khan still thought that he could destroy the Southern Song Dynasty. Judging from the results, if Kublai Khan did not go south to attack the Song Dynasty, but reached a peace agreement with the Southern Song Dynasty after the Battle of Ezhou. Zhao Jiaren will not rise after the surrender of Lin'an. Zhao Jiaren did not rise, and Mongolia was still the capital of Dadu.

After letting Urban go down, Timur didn't sleep well all night. Thinking back to Kublai Khan, recalling Genghis Khan, Timur became more and more unable to sleep. Kublai Khan did everything possible to turn the Great Lake from a meeting to choose a Great Khan into a meeting that recognized the Great Khan's decision on the heir, and what he did was no different from Genghis Khan. It's just that in the time of Genghis Khan, the Great Khan had overwhelming power, and at the first order, the various khanates had to change their territories. The kings of the Khans were happy or unhappy in the same way. Timur longed for that kind of prestige and ability.

When he woke up the next day, Urban went to see his mother, Kokozhen. The mother and son sat down and exchanged pleasantries, and Kuo Kuozhen asked, "Great Khan, but is there anything bothering?" ”

“…… Mother, I want to feast Hao Ren. ”

"Oh?" Kuo Kuozhen replied casually, waiting for Timur to continue.

Timur knew that his wife supported him, so he talked about the wealth of the Yuan Kingdom, and finally told the truth, "I want Hao Ren to change the territory." Having said this, Timur could not say any more. Kuo Kuozhen waited for a while, but Timur was still silent, and she sighed: "If you want Hao Ren to be good to you, you have to be honest with Hao Ren." ”

Timur couldn't help but smile bitterly, if being honest with Hao Ren could make Hao Ren obedient, he would be extremely honest with Hao Ren.

Seeing his son like this, Kuo Kuozhen continued: "It's right to invite you to eat. I'll invite Hao Ren to dinner. As for you, the prime minister in the court is not very good now, Hao Ren has always been loyal to the court, I don't know if he can go to the court to be the prime minister. Hao Ren's wife, I miss it too. Hao Ren's son can actually be of great use. ”

Timur was stunned, he didn't expect the old lady to be like this. Isn't this increasing Hao Ren's strength?

As soon as Kuo Kuozhen looked at his son's expression, he knew what his son was thinking. The Queen Mother pondered for a moment before continuing: "Why did you want to do it to Hao Ren? ”

"The court is short of money." Timur told the truth.

"How do you know that Hao Ren can't help you? If the current Great Khan's territory is also as rich as the Yuan Kingdom, why do you want to go far? ”

Timur's eyes lit up, this is the method of those who have made suggestions up to now adhere to the Mongol tradition, and grab where there is money. Kuokuo's suggestion is more operational, if the Great Khan's territory is also rich, Timur is reluctant to go to the cold north.

"Great Khan, do you think you are better than Kublai Khan? This is not the case when you find talent. When Kublai Khan reused Hao Ren, Hao Ren did not disappoint him. If the Great Khan thinks Hao Ren is capable, he will kill Hao Ren, and your subordinates"

"Seems to be inferior."

"Kublai Khan's subordinates include Boyan, Hao Ren, Yuxi Timur, Hao Jing, Ashu, Shi Tianze, and Zhang Hongfan. So many talents gathered under Kublai Khan's hands were able to defeat the Song State and Lin'an court to surrender. However, Changshengtian's mind is elusive, and the Song Kingdom has a Zhao Jiaren. Kublai Khan's subordinates were not as talented as Zhao Jiaren, and Dayuan was defeated again and again. You have obtained this khanate by reading the Sermon of the Great Khan, and Genghis Khan said that once I get the Magi and the Able, let them follow me and not let them go away. Having defeated the enemy, we shared the money we had gained. If you let the Yuan State hand over the territory, isn't it contrary to the teachings of the Great Khan? ”

When it was mentioned that he had obtained the throne by reading the Sermon of the Great Khan, Timur felt a fever in his face. Timur expected himself to have the power of Genghis Khan, but he did not expect Genghis Khan's bright side.

The next day, Hao Ren was invited to the palace to attend a family banquet hosted by the Queen Mother. There are no outsiders, no special pomp, and the participants are all people from the family. Timur listened to the Queen Mother's greetings, and the atmosphere quickly became harmonious. Eating while talking, soon the wine passed three rounds and the dishes passed the five flavors. The Empress Dowager sighed: "Brother Hao Ren, when Kublai Khan was alive, he especially appreciated and reused you. You've always been friends with real gold. Mr. Hao Jing once went to Zhenjin to eat, and the person who once praised him for surpassing him must be you. After Mr. Hao Jing left, Zhenjin told me that he had never heard Mr. Hao Jing praise others so much. ”

Hao Ren hadn't heard anyone mention the name of his mentor for a long time, and when he heard Kuo Kuozhen talk about the past, he couldn't help but have a sour nose and a little red circles under his eyes. This story was made up by Kuo Kuozhen, but she herself was moved by her own story, and she was very moved to see Hao Ren, and she herself picked up a handkerchief and wiped her eyes.

"Mr. Hao Jing, Zhang Rou Dashuai, Mr. Yao Shu, Zhang Hongfan, they have all been to Zhenjin to eat in Dadu's mansion, and now they are ...... It's gone. ”

Hao Ren wiped his tears with his hands, and even wanted to choke a little. These names were once famous in the capital of the Great Yuan. Now most of them have long since changed back to his former name, Youzhou, and the names of these people have also dissipated like fireworks, and no one will mention them again. But Hao Ren can't forget them, these people have all promoted the sinicization of Da Yuan without exception, to this day, Hao Ren still thinks that the failure of Da Yuan is certainly because of the fact that the Great Song Dynasty produced such an unborn figure as Zhao Jiaren, and his eloquence and strategy are unmatched. But if Dayuan could be completely sinicized back then, he might not be able to fight to the death with Zhao Jiaren.

Waiting for Hao Ren's mood to calm down a little, Kuo Kuozhen continued: "Brother Hao Ren, most of the talents of our elder generation are gone. As far as I remember, the people are gone. Zhenjin left so early, although there are some talents in the court, they are not as good as you. Can you bear to look at the court like this? ”

Hearing this, Hao Ren hurriedly said: "Queen Mother, the minister never dares to forget the imperial court. If the court has any needs, please ask the Queen Mother to say it directly. ”

Kuo Kuozhen shook his head, "Brother Hao Ren, the imperial court is difficult, you must know it." But the most difficult thing for the imperial court is not money and food, but the lack of talents like you. Zhenjin loves to read Han books, I haven't read any books, I just listen to Zhenjin tell me. He said that in the Han book, when the court was in difficulty, it was the time when loyal ministers and righteous men came out to serve the court. I heard that the Yuan Kingdom has been governed, but I don't know if the Hao Ren brothers are willing to come to the court to be prime ministers. If you are the prime minister, I will be relieved......"

Hao Ren was originally going to come to Baghdad to defend himself, and all he was thinking about was how to deal with those khans. At this time, after listening to Kuo Kuozhen's words, Hao Ren only felt that his heart was beating violently, and he didn't even hear Kuo Kuozhen's words clearly.

Becoming the prime minister of the Mongol Empire was once Hao Ren's expectation. No, this has always been Hao Ren's expectation. His teacher, Hao Jing, as the ruler, strongly promoted the establishment of the Great Yuan system.

Since the destruction of the Jin, the Mongol army began to move south, trying to annex the Southern Song Dynasty as soon as possible. Hao Jing has a negative attitude towards this. At the same time, through the analysis of the situation of the Mongolian and Song dynasties, he believed that Mongolia was "watched by the princes inside, and the small people withered below", while the Southern Song Dynasty was "the monarch and the ministers were harmonious, the political affairs were cultivated, and there was no provocation". Therefore, he advocated that the Song Dynasty should not be destroyed immediately, but should focus on eliminating maladministration, abiding by the Han law, selecting and using talents, creating a legal system, reducing taxes, cultivating land, consolidating the interior, and making "the world new."

The current Mongol Empire moved westward, but it was still a situation of "the princes watched inside, and the small people withered below", and the two million poor Mongols were driven by poverty, regardless of life and death to go to the Yuan Kingdom, Hao Ren also inquired about the situation in their various places, and the news he got was really sad for him.

If he could be called the prime minister of the Mongol Empire, Hao Ren was confident that he would solve all the problems facing the Mongols. Make the Mongol Empire as strong as the Yuan Kingdom.

Seeing Hao Ren's excited expression, Kuo Kuozhen glanced at his son Timur. Although he was a little reluctant, Timur still got up and said, "Uncle Hao Ren, I have always wanted to invite you to be the prime minister, but at the beginning of the Yuan Kingdom, things were busy, and I have never dared to make an invitation. Now Mongolia has reached the point where it is difficult to support without inviting you to come, and I also ask Uncle Hao Ren to come to help. ”

"Good!" Hao Ren replied without hesitation, "If it is ordered by the Great Khan, I will definitely obey it!" ”

But after saying that, Hao Ren regretted it a little. His words were true, but in his excitement, he forgot about the battle against the Semu people. Hao Ren could only say: "Just ask the Great Khan to give me a year." This year, I'm going to fight a decisive battle against the Semu, who, under the direction of their Pope, have declared war on our Mongols. The minister's territory is close to the Semu people, and a big war is about to break out. Wait for the ministers to defeat the Semu people, and they will come to office immediately. ”

Hearing this answer, Timur couldn't help but show a puzzled expression. But Kuo Kuo really didn't give her son a chance to say something stupid, she deliberately said in surprise: "Brother Hao Ren, when you encounter such a big event, why don't you ask the court for help." Do you think that the court itself is difficult, so it will sit idly by and ignore you when you encounter difficulties? ”
