Chapter 484: Tsarist Russian Provocation
Because Kangxi has already disposed of Tong Guogang's father and son, Yun Yao naturally can't be unforgiving, but Yun Yao still told Yinyu about this matter in private, Yun Yao understands that Yinyu, as the prince, has some things that he shouldn't know, but he can't tell him everything, he still has to grow up after all.
The matter of the Tong family did not end there, as Tsarist Russia became more and more rude and arrogant, it made a comeback again, captured the city of Yaxa, Kangxi ordered a counterattack, and soon the Qing army recaptured the city of Yaksa again, at this time Sophia, the regent of Tsarist Russia, hurriedly asked the Qing Dynasty to stop the attack, and promised to renegotiate the border.
Yun Yao learned about this and knew that it was the Nebuchu Treaty signed in the previous life, and this time he also had a connection with Yun Yao, everyone knew that the overall situation had been decided, and the matter of renegotiating the border in Tsarist Russia, no matter which minister came forward, it was all a sure credit, in the previous life, Kangxi made Prince Yinren's foreign family Suo Etu and his uncle Tong Guogang get this credit, but this time it was naturally not the turn of the Hesheri family, which had declined.
Kangxi is interested in Yun Yao's eldest brother Ling Tai, Ling Tai is a young hero, and Kangxi likes him very much, so he is naturally willing to promote him, but Yun Yao used Ling Tai's youth as an excuse to plead with Kangxi, and Kangxi sent Yun Yao's uncle Qi Wei as the main envoy, and also let Ling Tai follow the experience. As for the Tong family, Kangxi still gave Tong Guogang face, and as a deputy envoy, he followed Qi Wei to negotiate with Tsarist Russia.
In fact, the reason why Yun Yao is reluctant is precisely this, Tong Guogang is the uncle of the country in the end, even if his eldest brother is the envoy, he can't suppress Tong Guogang, the emperor's uncle, who knows if something will go wrong when the time comes, now that Qi Wei has been replaced, Qi Wei is deeply trusted by Kangxi and holds real power, and Qi Wei is now the minister of the guard, Tong Guogang does not dare to refute Qi Wei easily.
However, things changed again, and Tsarist Russia was unwilling to be defeated, and Golovin, the plenipotentiary representative participating in the Sino-Russian border negotiations, specially met with Geldan's representative in Irkutsk, and conspired to instigate Geldan to rebel and support him in attacking Khalkha Mongolia. At the instigation of Tsarist Russia, Geldan finally led his troops to attack the Khalkha Mongols.
As soon as the incident came out, Kangxi was not busy sending people to negotiate with Tsarist Russia, but only let people respond to the story in vain and concentrate on dealing with Geerdan, Qi Wei and Tong Guogang did not want to continue to stay in Khalkha Mongolia, so they simply wrote to ask to go back.
Especially Tong Guogang, he hopes to go to the battlefield and make military achievements, but now his ambitions are not rewarded, and there is only one title on his body because he is a relative, but in the imperial court where military merit is precious, Tong Guogang, a relative, is not welcomed, even if it is Niu Hulu's family, it is also deeper than the Tong family.
At this time, Tong Guogang didn't know that in the war to quell Geerdan, it was his burial place, which is also a later story.
However, at present, Tong Guogang and Qi Wei's last letter was refuted by Kangxi, for Kangxi's intentions, Ling Tai, who came here with Qi Wei, had another guess, and said to Qi Wei: "Uncle, although Geldan is supported by the people of Tsarist Russia, but in the end, Tsarist Russia only regards Geerdan's Junggar Department as a chess piece, if we can reach an agreement with Tsarist Russia in advance, Geldan without the support of Tsarist Russia, it will be like a tree without water and roots, without dependence, in the future, the emperor will send troops to crusade against Geerdan, it will inevitably get twice the result with half the effort, So I'm afraid the emperor hopes that we can reach a consensus with Tsarist Russia as soon as possible! ”
Qi Wei frowned when he heard this, and said: "Even so, if you want to reach an agreement with Tsarist Russia, I'm afraid it will be difficult to reach the sky, I'm afraid Tsarist Russia will open its mouth!" ”
Ling Tai was also at a loss for this dead knot at this time, but Ling Tai had another idea, and said: "Uncle, let's go back to the capital as soon as possible, we can't achieve our goal at all, Geldan is attacking Khalkha Mongolia and blocking the road, we can't touch it with the envoys of Tsarist Russia, I'm afraid it's useless to just defend here, and we also have to guard against Geldan making it bad, after all, we are under Geerdan's nose right now, why don't we go back to Beijing and ask Tsarist Russia to change the place of negotiation again?" ”
Qi Wei also knew that what Ling Tai said was right, and at the moment they couldn't contact the envoys of Tsarist Russia at all, so they could only do useless work here, but thinking of the emperor's rejection of their letter before, he couldn't help frowning and asking: "But the emperor didn't allow our group to return to Beijing, what should we do?" ”
Ling Tai smiled when he heard this: "Uncle is a bull, before my uncle wrote a letter to ask for war, and wanted to fight with Geerdan, the emperor naturally did not allow it, but if my uncle reported our situation to the emperor, the emperor naturally knew that it was not beneficial for us to stay here, so how could he stop us from returning to the capital?" ”
Hearing this, Qi Wei stretched his brows and said with a smile: "Yes, my uncle almost got into the horns!" However, Qi Wei thought of Tong Guogang not far from his tent, Qi Wei frowned again, and said: "That Tong Guogang is really relying on the old and selling the old, if it weren't for Yun Niang's sake, how could I tolerate his rudeness!" ”
Ling Tai knew what his uncle said, in fact, Ling Tai also looked down on Tong Guogang very much in his heart, when Qi Wei heard that Geldan had attacked Khalkha, he was anxious and wrote a note to Kangxi, hoping to lead the troops to attack Geerdan.
But who knew that Tong Guogang actually ordered someone to keep an eye on Qi Wei, and directly snatched the fold from the people sent by Qi Wei to the capital, and after reading the content, Tong Guogang went back and wrote a piece of the fold with similar content, and also let his subordinates hurry up and send it to the capital Kangxi on the head of Qi Wei's people.
Tong Guogang undoubtedly slapped Qi Wei in the face by doing this, but Qi Wei didn't bother with him for the sake of the overall situation, Qi Wei and Ling Tai were only glad that they still had the emperor's people by their side, at least they would not be wronged in vain.
Qi Wei saw that Ling Tai was also disgusted when he mentioned Tong Guogang, and he looked down on Tong Guogang's style, so he hesitated for a while and still didn't say anything, Ling Tai felt that Tong Guogang was domineering, but in fact, Tong Guogang's attitude was normal.
That is, he is the queen's mother's family and the emperor's confidant, so Tong Guogang used to be good friends with his own family, but Qi Wei has not seen Tong Guogang's arrogant and domineering appearance. So although Qi Wei didn't like it, he was prepared, and since Oro Dai was punished by the emperor at the beginning, the relationship between the two families has stiffened a lot, otherwise he wouldn't have deliberately brought his subordinates who were obviously the emperor's people over.
There are many domineering relatives, and there are only a few who are reasonable, and only their own family, Ling Tai and He Shen are well educated, so they have never seen such a domineering style. However, Qi Wei is also very proud of his nephew, after all, in terms of wind reviews, his two nephews and the eldest son of the Mingzhu family are almost the first in the capital.
Proud of his nephew for a while, Qi Wei still pinched his nose and informed Tong Guogang that he would write to the emperor again to return to the capital, but Qi Wei still kept an eye on it and didn't say what he thought, so Tong Guogang couldn't help but hesitate after hearing it.
Tong Guogang thought about it, or decided to show loyalty to the emperor, Tong Guogang also thought that Qi Wei was eager to seek merit, and was afraid of Geerdan in front of him, so the content of the book this time was completely opposite to Qi Wei's, because of the lessons from the past, Qi Wei looked at the twists and turns strictly, so Tong Guogang couldn't see the reason why Qi Wei gave Kangxi a detailed analysis and couldn't continue to stay here.
The excerpts sent to Kangxi were all to be checked by officials, so the contents of Qi Wei and Tong Guogang's excerpts were also passed out. It is conceivable how intriguing it would be for the two of them to hand over two completely different excerpts.
So everyone knew about the discord between the two envoys this time, and many people were curious about who the emperor would favor, after all, these two were relatives.
But Kangxi in the palace knew about it, but he couldn't wait to scold, among the accompanying officials on this mission, Kangxi didn't have a lot of eyeliner, so with the arrival of the two excerpts, there was also a dispute between Qi Wei and Tong Guogang of Kangxi's eyeliner report.
Kangxi also knew that Tong Guogang was so arrogant that he stopped Qi Wei's excerpts, which made Kangxi very angry, after all, the folds were presented to him, and checking the folds of his colleagues privately was not the same as not taking himself seriously?
However, when Kangxi saw the various analyses of how to negotiate with Tsarist Russia in Qi Wei's excerpts, Kangxi also favored Qi Wei in his heart, especially compared to Tong Guogang's excerpts, which were full of flattery, and none of them were useful, and even Tong Guogang complained in the excerpts that Qi Wei made his own decisions without consulting him.
After reading Tong Guogang's excerpt, Kangxi directly threw the excerpt far away, Kangxi felt that his uncle was really muddy and couldn't support the wall, not only was he very domineering, but he also had no talent, if it weren't for Tong Guogang being his uncle, such a person who did nothing would have cleaned him up a long time ago!
In the end, Kangxi directly ordered Qi Wei and his party to come back, not to mention the thunderbolt on a sunny day when Tong Guogang heard about it, he saw how Qi Wei Lingtai's uncle and nephew were yin and yang, and he couldn't change the action of the group to return to the capital again.
Because Yun Yao has always been concerned about the safety of Ling Tai Qiwei, Yun Yao has long known that this time Qi Wei and his party will come back with nothing, but in the end they are still worried, after knowing Tong Guogang's actions, Yun Yao can only sigh that some people just like to die, if Tong Guogang was not because of his identity as the uncle of the country, he would not have reached his current status at all, in the end, Tong Guogang is just an ordinary relative, and his intelligence is very mediocre.
However, this time Yun Yao's focus was not on the Tong family, she knew that there were many off-the-spot factors in the signing of the Nebuchu Treaty next, in order to prevent her eldest brother and uncle from taking a detour, Yun Yao deliberately sent the businessman who had just returned from the Guanwai business to Ling Tai and Qi Wei.
Qi Wei and Ling Tai were still a little puzzled how their niece/sister could send such a person over, but after the businessman told everything he knew, Qi Wei and Ling Tai's faces showed solemn expressions.
Ling Tai asked with great concern, "Shopkeeper Yu, what you said is true?" Is there really something wrong with the Russian royal family? ”
Shopkeeper Yu is the son of Niu Hulu's family, but now he is doing things for Yun Yao, and he naturally knows that the eldest brother in front of him is his master, so he naturally doesn't dare to hide it, but he doesn't know what the use of these things is, seeing Ling Tai's concern, he quickly nodded and said: "The eldest prince heard it right, this time when the little one went to Guanwai to go to business, he also went to Russia, and he also had some transactions with the nobles there, and there were people under the little hand who knew Russian, and I accidentally heard what the emperor of Russia was called at the beginning of spring this year... What a leather,"
Ling Tai specially learned about the affairs of Tsarist Russia for this mission, and after listening to it, he knew who the shopkeeper Yu was talking about, and said, "It's Peter?" ”
Shopkeeper Yu nodded hurriedly and said: "Yes, that's the name, that nobleman said that Peter was officially married, just like the rules of our Long Live Lord, when he gets married, he will be pro-government, but that regent Sophia is unwilling to return to power, I heard that Russia has been in trouble for a long time, but now I don't know which side won!" ”
Qi Wei and Ling Tai glanced at each other, and both saw the excitement in each other's eyes, Ling Tai asked Shopkeeper Yu to speak in detail again, focusing on the details, and then letting Shopkeeper Yu step back.
After the others left, Ling Taicai said happily: "With this matter prompted by the mother, the task given to the uncle by the emperor can be completed!" ”
Qi Wei was more stable in the end, and said: "Don't leak this matter for the time being, and if the emperor asks, don't leak out the mother, the mother reminded our uncle and nephew so that we can make a contribution, if the emperor knows about this matter and the mother's handwriting, you have to have a mustache!" ”
Ling Tai also knew that what Qi Wei said was right, and he didn't dare to be careless, and said with a guarantee: "My nephew wrote it down, and my nephew said that the family found it when they were doing business, after all, although the shopkeeper Yu did things for his mother, he mostly obeyed the family, and the source would not have a problem!" ”
Qi Wei was also relieved when he heard Ling Tai's assurance, his nephew Qi Wei still trusted, but Qi Wei's top priority at the moment was to hurry into the palace to meet the emperor and discuss with the emperor how to use this matter.
Ling Tai also followed Qi Wei into the palace, and when Kangxi saw Qi Wei, he asked: "Qi Wei just came back from outside, and I also gave you a few days off, why did you come to the palace if you don't recuperate at home?" And Ling Tai, the queen also asked about you! ”
Qi Wei hurriedly said: "The slave thought that this errand was not done well, but the slave happened to get a piece of news, or Ling Tai got it, and the slave felt that this matter should be beneficial to the matter of negotiating the border with Tsarist Russia, so he hurried to report to the saint!" ”
Kangxi's eyes narrowed when he heard this, to be honest, he was disappointed when he knew that Qi Wei returned in vain, but in the end, the anger did not come to them, but seeing that Qi Wei was still worried about this matter, he was relieved at the same time, and he couldn't help but be a little curious about what news made Qi Wei so excited.
Qi Wei hurriedly said all the news he knew, especially focusing on the fact that the regent Sophia seemed to be increasingly dissatisfied with Peter I, Peter I was eager to govern himself, and it was very likely that the regent Sophia would fight to the death with Peter I in the near future!
Kangxi had a strange feeling in his heart when he heard this, how similar the situation of this Peter I was to himself, he ascended the throne at a young age, was held hostage by ministers or clans, and could not govern himself, Kangxi couldn't help but feel a vigilance against this Peter I.
For people like Kangxi, no one knows Peter I who is similar to him better than him, if Peter I grows up in the future, the Qing Dynasty borders with Tsarist Russia, and it may not be a great enemy.
At this time, Kangxi didn't know that his excessive attention to Peter I had led to a great change in Kangxi's own thinking, and as a young monarch, Kangxi naturally did not admit that he was inferior to others, and slowly, the future of the Qing Dynasty seemed to have changed a lot.
However, at the moment, Kangxi is concerned about what benefits he can get from the battle between Peter I and the regent Sophia, according to the policy of distant friendship and close attack, because it was the regent Sophia who launched a war against the Qing Dynasty, Kangxi decided to send someone to contact this Peter I, if he could, Kangxi was not stingy to help this young monarch, after all, those concerns in his heart are still far away, and now it is important to solve the problem of Tsarist Russia first, so as to free up his hands to deal with Geldan.
