7. The Son of Heaven (3)

The subtext of Tran Van Ding's words, Nguyen Van Xiang knows what it means, is nothing more than that even if China wants to think anything wrong about Vietnam, it will definitely not be as ugly as the French, and it will not have the same ambition of destroying the country and exterminating the species as the French. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Emperor Side shook his head, "France is far away, China is close at hand, these two big countries, we have to settle other accounts, Chen Aiqing, you are coming back from China, you know how powerful China is, not to mention anything else, just let the vassal country enter the Chinese imperial examination, countless scholars in my Great Southern Kingdom have heard of it, and the domestic imperial examination is empty, China is benevolent and righteous, yes, but he is too close to our Vietnam, and the proximity is frightening," Emperor Side turned around, sat down on the throne again, and said with a gloomy face, " The Chinese will never have such good intentions, not only the national dynasty, but also before, when the Li Dynasty was the same, they must have some conspiracy. ”

Chen Wending glanced at Ruan Wenxiang in disbelief, and saw Ruan Wenxiang's face sinking like water, "Your Highness!" People have no long-term worries, there must be near-term worries, this French plague is a near-term worry, the day 1 dynasty is at most just a long-term worry, the trouble of France, imminent, if you think about it again, the former is afraid of the wolf and the tiger, my great southern country, when there is no autonomy and independence, if you want to send the land to the legal person, it is better to send it to the day 1 dynasty! ”

"Bold!" Emperor Side shouted again, "Chen Wending, you are presumptuous! ”

The rain outside the hall slowly dissipated, and the sun shone on the place again, but the inside of the hall was still very gloomy.

Chen Wending said as soon as he spoke, he suddenly knew his gaffe, and hurriedly knelt down to ask for his guilt, "Please forgive your majesty," Ruan Wenxiang hurriedly played a round, "Wending is just dedicated to the country, his words are too reckless, please forgive him for his unintentional words." ”

Emperor Side waved his hand, "That's it, you get up, Chen Wending," he was a little discouraged, "I don't know your good intentions, it's just that this court matter, can't all be put in one place, pinned on a certain person and a certain country, the French are shameless, but I can at least keep Beiqi, south of Hue Province, it doesn't matter if they are ceded to the French," his originally straight back was a little bent, and his complexion was a little bad, "If I can slow down, I will gather the division of the king of Qin in the country, and then order one or two generals to train elite soldiers, Ten years of lying on the back will surely drive the French out of the Great South and behead all the Catholics! Now, let's wait and see. ”

"What does Your Majesty mean?" Nguyen Van Xiang asked, "Do you want to wait for the official news from the Chinese side first?" ”

"Yes, let's see what the idea of China is," Emperor Side was a little lazy, "the French side should continue to talk, if there is a chance in the future, it is not too late to regret it." ”

Chen Wending wanted to say something, but was stopped by Ruan Wenxiang, he took Chen Wending's hand and held it down, "So good, Weichen will order Saigon to continue to negotiate, and the ministers will retire." ”

Ruan Wenxiang turned around and retreated, Chen Wending caught up with Ruan Wenxiang, "Master Ruan, how could you?" Withdrawing like this, we should advise the Holy One again! ”

"What is there to persuade, you haven't seen it yet?" Ruan Wenxiang said indifferently, "The emperor has already made up his mind, he was frightened by the French warships, and he was bent on suing for peace, he can not care about any diplomatic tariffs, as long as the French do not say that he will abdicate, he can accept anything." Nguyen Van Xiang sneered, "I can see through the nature of our emperor, at the beginning of his accession to the throne, he was still working hard, but now, he is just thinking about how to keep his throne, and he doesn't want to think about it," Ruan Van Xiang's words did not have a little respect, "Without Vietnam, how could he be the emperor of Da Nan?" Wen Ding, do you think I will be Pan Qingjian? ”

After the Franco-Vietnamese War, Pan Qingjian was instructed to negotiate with France, signed the "Peace of Renxu" in 1862, and sent an envoy to France in 1863 to try to recover the three provinces of Nanqi that had been occupied. After returning to China, he continued to be in charge of Franco-Vietnamese negotiations, and passed through Nanqi, but he was never successful, and finally committed suicide in 1867 after the French army annexed the entire territory of Nanqi.

After the signing of the treaty, "the reason for the dissenting arguments was the plenipotentiary minister, not out of the will of the above, and the good and the bad were agitated with each other, and Xu moved to talk about it", which led to a rebellion by the clan Nguyen Phuc Hong Ji and others, trying to kill Pan Thanh Kyen and other lords and factions. The volunteers in Nanqi also held high the banner of "Pan Lin betrayed the country, and the court abandoned the people".

"Who did Pan Qingjian listen to before signing the "Renxu Peace Treaty"?" Ruan Wenxiang said indifferently, "It's not the emperor of the Qiancheng Palace, 'Non-Teben Dynasty sinners, sinners through the ages!'" Pan Qingjian groveled before the French, demanded the return of the three provinces, so that the center of the country, and finally took him out for humiliation, and finally forced him to commit suicide. Wen Ding, I can't be Pan Qingjian, I don't want to be infamous like this, go," Ruan Wenxiang's face flashed, "Follow me to meet someone." (To be continued.) )
