"You mean the messenger of Dongying is here?" Huang Taiji asked, riding on his BMW.

"Yes, Your Majesty, I just got the news and rushed to report it." Amin replied respectfully.

"Do you know why they're here?" Huang Taiji asked Amin while thinking about the purpose of the Dongying people who had dealt with their Qing army.

Amin said, "Look at the gift they sent that they said they had come to give Dolgon a congratulatory gift. ”

"A congratulatory gift for Dolgon?" Huang Taiji was a little confused.

"Weichen also thinks that it is unreasonable for them to do this. At that time, the emperor did not come to give congratulatory gifts when you got married, but this time Dolgon's wedding, why did they go to great lengths to send congratulatory gifts? I think this is a weasel giving a New Year's greeting to a chicken, and I don't have any good intentions. Amin reminded.

Huang Taiji smiled: "They are trying to sow discord between me and Dolgon, right?" ”

"It seems to mean that, but ......" Amin stopped talking.

Huang Taiji was a little impatient and said, "Amin, just say what you want to say, why are you spitting?" ”

"Yes, Your Majesty," Amin sorted out his thoughts and said, "I'm afraid there will be something in this." ”

"You mean Dolgon has a disobedient heart?" Huang Taiji immediately thought of the idea.

"It's Weichen who is talkative. But now a lot of people say that. After the emperor's wedding that day, Dolgon made a big fuss, and everyone saw it, and the spies reported that Dolgon did have bad intentions that day. ”

"But Dorgon has already handed over the jade seal he inadvertently obtained to me, and I don't want to pursue it further." Huang Taiji pondered.

Amin said: "I think Dolgon was also helpless at that time, if he had enough strength to fight us, or if we didn't receive the news at that time and didn't have time to deploy the city defense, maybe Dolgon might have reversed." ”

Huang Taiji said: "We have discussed this matter before, and now we are in the Qing Dynasty when we are employing people, and the Han people have a saying called 'use people are not suspicious, and suspicious people do not need to be used', not to mention that Dolgon is indeed a rare talent." Now that he is married to Xiao Yu'er, he should take away the thief's heart. Today, I see that his expression at the banquet no longer has that kind of sharpness, and he is also very respectful to me. ”

Amin sighed, "I hope I'm too careful." But the arrival of Dongying this time is indeed a bit unbelievable. ”

Huang Taiji said: "I sent Dolgon to support Wushanju that day, and they also repelled the Dongying people, why did they come to him to give him a congratulatory gift this time?" ”

"This is exactly what Wechen is worried about, for fear that there will be some conspiracy behind this." Amin finally spoke his mind.

Huang Taiji smiled: "It doesn't matter what his reason is, just take a look and find out." Where are they now? ”

"Most of the people who gave gifts, I have already arranged them in the post house, and their leader is now waiting in the main hall." Amin said.

"Okay, then I'll meet them for a while. Look at what kind of medicine they sell in the gourd! As for the fourteenth brother's banquet, you don't have to go first, just accompany him another day. ”

Escorted by a team of personal guards, the two rode towards the palace. There are no ads

Huang Taiji and Amin dismounted, and then came to the main hall, where they saw several people in kimonos waiting in the side hall.

When the envoys of Dongying saw a man with the air of a king walking in, they all got up.

One of them, who looked like their leader, said, "You are the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, right?" ”

Huang Taiji smiled: "You are a very discerning person, how can you see at a glance that I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty?" ”

The man smiled faintly and said, "All kings have a unique spirit, and I see it from this." Although you didn't speak just now, I see that the way you walk is different from others. In your Chinese words, it is 'tiger step dragon trend', which should mean it. ”

Huang Taiji listened to what he said, and was greatly impressed, and said, "I see that you are not an ordinary messenger, envoy. ”

The envoy smiled: "I am just a small envoy, compared to the emperor, it is really a world of difference." ”

Huang Taiji smiled and said, "We don't compliment each other anymore, let's talk about it, what is the purpose of your visit this time?" ”

The envoy bowed and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, one of the purposes of our visit this time is to send congratulatory gifts to Prince Heshuorui of your country. ”

"Oh? Then why don't you send the gifts directly to the Prince's Palace? Huang Taiji asked.

The envoy said calmly: "Your Majesty the Emperor, here's the thing, we had some friction with Prince Dorgon because of some misunderstandings before, so today is his good day, and we can't disturb his Yaxing, so as long as the gift is sent to His Majesty the Emperor for relay, you won't mind, right?" ”

"Hehe, you're here to give gifts, why would I mind?" Huang Taiji smiled and didn't laugh.

The messenger continued, "Your Majesty must be very curious, since we have had a misunderstanding with Prince Dorgon, why did we come to give him gifts?" ”

Huang Taiji smiled and said, "I would like to hear about it." ”

The envoy pointed to several people dressed as samurai behind him and said, "We Dongying people respect the spirit of bushido, and we also respect those who are stronger than us. Although Prince Dorgon's army defeated us, we were convinced that we had come to congratulate him. ”

Huang Taiji originally wanted to ask why didn't you come when I got married? But then after thinking about it, it seemed that he lowered his status, so he suppressed the anger in his heart and said with a smile: "Oh, I see, I will accept your gift for Dorgon on your behalf and pass it on to him." According to what you just said, it seems that you are here for more than one purpose this time, right? ”

The envoy said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, you are really quick to speak. Then I'll get straight to the point. In fact, in addition to sending congratulatory gifts to Prince Dolgon, we have come to form an alliance with your country. ”

"Alliance?" Huang Taiji never thought that they would come to this set, so he said: "I heard that your country has signed an alliance with the Ming Dynasty?" Why are you allied with us again this time? Do you know that our Qing Dynasty is at odds with the Ming Dynasty? Isn't that a bit unconscionable to you? ”

The envoy slowly explained: "Your Majesty the Emperor, we have come to form an alliance with your country this time with great sincerity, please do not doubt our sincerity Your Majesty the Emperor. ”

Huang Taiji said: "I don't doubt your sincerity, I just want to hear what you think." ”

The messenger said slowly: "There are no eternal friends and no eternal enemies between nations, only eternal interests. ”

Huang Taiji smiled: "Okay, you are a Dongying person, although this sentence sounds a little interesting." Continue below. ”

"Although there have been some minor misunderstandings between us and your country, they are all in the past. We've all paid for that misunderstanding, so it doesn't affect our alliance, don't you say? His Majesty the Emperor? The envoy looked at Huang Taiji and asked.

"Yes, that's all in the past, and we haven't lost anything because of it." Huang Taiji replied with interest.

"Although our country has an alliance with the Ming Dynasty, they have not fulfilled the covenant, and we have the right to tear up the covenant in accordance with the spirit of the contract."

"Are you saying that when you sent troops to attack Wushanju, the Ming Dynasty didn't send troops to help?" Huang Taiji asked knowingly.

"Yes, Your Majesty the Emperor, you are the wisest king I have ever met." The messenger complimented.

Huang Taiji was extremely happy when he heard the foreign envoy patting his ass, and said, "Are you going to tear up the alliance with the Ming Dynasty for this reason?" ”

The messenger said, "According to the agreement of the covenant, we have the right to do this, and it is in accordance with the rules. Besides, we want to form an alliance with a country with a wise king, which is the right choice for us. ”

As a king, the most important thing I want to hear is that others praise him as a wise monarch and ignore others.

Although Huang Taiji was a little fluttering by this sycophant, he was a resourceful person in the end, and said: "Envoy, I have seen your sincerity, but the alliance between the two countries is not just as simple as sincerity, what I value is what benefits we can get after the alliance between the Qing Dynasty and your Dongying?" ”

"Your Majesty the Emperor, you are the happiest king I have ever seen in the world. Since we have chosen to form an alliance with your country, we will certainly show it with concrete actions. ”

"Then tell me about it." Huang Taiji was interested to know what they could do for the Qing Dynasty.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, I heard that you are a very ambitious king, and you have never been willing to own such a square inch of Changbai Mountain, have you?"

Huang Taiji was stunned for a moment and said, "Oh? Isn't there still a lot of territory in our Changbai Mountain area? How is it compared to you? ”

As soon as the envoy heard that Huang Taiji was secretly ridiculing them for the lack of territory in Dongying, his face was a little unbearable, but in order for this alliance to be successful, he smiled and said: "Our Dongying is only an island country, and there are not many people, so we don't need much land. But, Your Majesty the Emperor, are you really content with the current situation? ”

Huang Taiji understands that when negotiating, he can't let the other party know where his weaknesses are, what his hole cards are, what he is thinking, and what he wants. In this way, he could grasp the initiative, so he said with a haha: "Then you can tell me why I can't be satisfied with the status quo?" ”

The envoy smiled and said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, I have heard that you have an old Chinese saying that 'the prime minister can take a boat in his belly'. A prime minister can be like this, let alone a wise man like His Majesty the Emperor. As the emperor, shouldn't you be more mindful of the world? ”

Huang Taiji was a little moved by what the envoy said, and thought: Although this Dongying envoy has said a bit too much, it is indeed the wish of every king to unify the world. To be able to build an indestructible foundation is my ideal in life.

Huang Taiji smiled: "Even if I want to unify the Central Plains, but you Dongying is located in the middle of nowhere, what can you help us?" ”

The messenger said in his heart: After such a hard time, now I am finally getting to the point. So he said: "Your country implements the great cause of unifying the world, although we can't do much help in our small country, but we can still do some things within our ability. ”

"Oh? Let's talk about it. Huang Taiji smiled.

"Although the Ming Dynasty is now stormy, but the hundred-legged insect is dead but not stiff, if your country wants to drive straight into the Central Plains, it is not so easy to enter the Central Plains, besides, I heard that the Han people have a large population, but it is several times the size of your country."

"What the envoy said is very reasonable, there are indeed many Han people, but they are weak, how can our Qing Dynasty's Eight Banners Army be brave and good at fighting?"

The envoy said unhurriedly: "Your country's soldiers are good at fighting, we have already learned it, but the Ming Dynasty is rich in land and resources, if he doesn't directly confront you and drags on with you, I'm afraid your country's financial resources should not be able to support it for a few years." ”

Financial resources have always been the most headache in the Qing Dynasty, and when this messenger said that he was on his mind, Huang Taiji's face was a little hot, and he was shouting just now how brave his soldiers were, but without food, everything was empty talk.

Huang Taiji said silently: "Since the envoy has said this, he should have thought of some good way, right?" ”

The envoy said, "Your Majesty the Emperor, as I have just said, we can't help our country if we are doing a great job, so we can't support your country financially. But if we can disperse the forces of the Ming Dynasty, so that they can't take care of both sides, and let them be exhausted, we can not only distract their energy, but also consume their food, we can still do such a small thing. ”

Huang Taiji's eyes lit up, and he said in his heart: Isn't this what I want? On that day, I asked Yang Fei'er to let his brother-in-law Li Zicheng make trouble in the Ming Dynasty, isn't it just to achieve this purpose? At that time, I also promised to give them the support of food and equipment, and now there is a master who works in vain but does not have to pay for it, how can such a good thing be missed?

Huang Taiji said: "I want to hear the envoy explain your plan in detail. ”
