"Gelong, under the command of Boshuotu Khan of Western Mongolia, meet Zhuosuotu Khan of Eastern Mongolia!" (In his early years, Geldan went to Lhasa to worship the Fifth * Lama as a teacher and learn the Shamanji method, and later, he zhan had the northern foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and the Fifth * Lama thought that Galdan was unique, so he gave him the title of "Boshoktu Khan".) ）

In Zhuo Suotu's tent, Geldan's envoy touched his chest with one hand and bowed to Zhuo Suotu.

"Gelong, welcome to you, it's just that you don't accompany you Geldan Khan in Ulan Butong, how can you have time to come to me?" Zhuo Suotu sat down and said with a smile.

"We Boshuotu Khan have a few gifts, I want to give them to several great khans of Eastern Mongolia, but the villain is too lazy and afraid to go a long way, I heard that the Naadam conference in Horqin is about to start, and I know that the nearby khan kings will come, so, for the sake of convenience, the villain came here!" When the envoy named Gelong answered, he turned his gaze to Luo Xin, who was sitting on the side, and his face could not hide his surprise, it was rare for a woman to sit so peacefully in the big tent where Zhuo Suotu received distinguished guests.

"Oh, what's the good thing about you Great Khan? Take it out and take a look! Urigen*, who was standing beside Zhuo Suotu, shouted.

"Actually, there's nothing new, just a little gold dug up in our Great Khan's territory!" Gelong smiled, turned around and shouted two words to the back, and immediately, ten strong Mongolian men walked in carrying five boxes!

"Gold again? Alas, I said Gelong, you Boshutu Khan are really rich, this time, it's 50,000 taels of gold, right? Wu Rigen*'s expression showed more than a little envy!

"Exactly, Your Highness the Prince!" Gronn laughed.

"This time, besides us Horqin, who else do you have to give it to?" Zhuo Suotu asked.

"Back to Zhuo Sotu Khan, as well as the Xicun Gol League, the Zhaowuda League, the Zhelimu League and the Wendur Khan!" Gronn replied.

"You have carried hundreds of thousands of taels of gold along the way, and you are not afraid of danger?" Regarding Geerdan's gift-giving behavior to such a degree, Luo Xin finally couldn't help but interject and ask.

"This is ......" did not answer Luo Xin's words, and instead asked Zhuo Suotu about Luo Xin's identity.

"This is Lord Luoxin!" Zhuo Suotu said.

"It turned out to be a county lord...... Gelong gave Luo Xin a simple salute, but still did not answer Luo Xin's question, but because he had been looking at him, Luo Xin still noticed that he squinted unnaturally when he heard his name!

"Since it was sent from afar by your Great Khan, I'm not welcome!" Zhuo Sotu stood up and walked to the box containing the gold, patted it twice, and said to Gelong: "You have walked such a long way, and you are tired, go and rest first, and I will drink with you again tonight!" ”

"Shedrol Sotu Khan!"

Gelong was taken down by Urigen*.

Only Zhuo Suotu and Luo Xin were left in the big tent!

Neither of them spoke!

Zhuo Suotu looked at Luo Xin, and Luo Xin looked at the mare's milk wine in front of him...... I wonder if I should try to take a sip!

……

Finally, Zhuo Suotu couldn't hold back, and asked Luo Xin first: "County Lord, why didn't you ask me why I accepted Geldan's gift?"

"Why ask? Wouldn't you be too sorry for yourself if you don't swallow the fat meat that was sent to the door? Luo Xin's answer was very natural, but her words made Zhuo Suotu's heartstrings stir, and immediately, the Prince of Horqin asked again: "County Lord, you should know that the emperor intends to go west to conquer Geerdan, and he gave me gold, making it clear that he is trying to win me over, you are the county lord of the emperor, aren't you afraid that I will be co-opted and cause trouble to the emperor when the time comes?" ”

"Lord Wang, you won't!" Seeing that Zhuo Suotu only asked two sentences, he began to have some impoverished meaning, Luo Xin was a little funny, what is there to be nervous about such a simple matter?

"Why not?"

"There's no need for that!"

"Why isn't that necessary? Geldan gave me yellow gold! Zhuo Suotu said.

"Does it matter if gold has a life? Can Geldan give you more status and wealth than you do now? I'm willing to bet that Geldan didn't give the Khan King gold near him, he was just playing a trick of 'long-distance and close-quarter'!" You are not a stupid person, my lord, and Geldan is doing this to seek to rob your Kol in the future, so it is not too much for you to take him a little gold, is it? Luo Xin took a sip of mare's milk wine and immediately put it down again! This stuff is really unaccustomed to drinking!

“……”

"Lord Wang, what's wrong with you?" Luo Xin looked at Zhuo Suotu standing there without speaking, and shouted.

"Ah, nothing? The county lord came from afar, and he was tired, we want a good creature to welcome you tonight, please, please ......" Zhuo Suotu came back to his senses and immediately invited Luo Xin outside, making Luo Xin inexplicable!

"What the hell?" Luo Xin muttered, and was taken to his "guest tent" by the servant summoned by Zhuo Suotu!

However, Luo Xin didn't know that after she left the big tent, Zhuo Suotu sat down on the seat with the sweat on her forehead, and with a look of happiness: "Fortunately, these have been explained to the emperor, even a little woman can guess Geerdan's intentions, how can the emperor not see through it?" The emperor not only has a lot of soldiers, but also a lot of wise men and warriors around him, Geerdan, Geerdan, it's not that I'm Zhuo Suotu unreasonable, it's true that you calculated me first, I took your gold and didn't help you do things, you can't blame me! ……”

Zhuo Suotu muttered to himself and wiped a handful on his forehead!

It turned out that since Geldan killed his father and brother to seize the throne of Khan, and wantonly annexed the Western Mongolian tribes, occupying the northern and southern foothills of the Tianshan Mountains and the four Qinghai tribes, in order to prevent the Eastern Mongolian tribes from interfering in his expansion war, he distributed the gold produced by the gold mines in the occupied area to several relatively powerful Mongolian alliances that did not border him!

Trosotu's Kol is one of them!

And because of Horqin's leading position among the Eastern Mongolian tribes, Geldan even sent Zhuo Suotu gold every other year! Zhuo Suotu happily accepted this, and he was happy in his heart! However, the last time Zhuo Suotu went to Fengtian to see the car, the East Window incident happened! It turned out that several ministries and alliances that received the gold secretly folded this matter to Kangxi, but Zhuo Suotu did not! For this matter, Kangxi gave him a hard beating, and also took away the Dongzhu in his crown, and he was not allowed to put it on again! In this way, among the canonized khans in the entire Eastern Mongolia, there was no Dongzhu in his crown, and on that day, Zhuo Suotu could be said to have lost face!

However, others don't know that although Zhuo Suotu was robbed of the East Pearl in the crown, he got a greater benefit. Kangxi Nian confessed to him and was very close to the royal family, let him make meritorious contributions, and gave him a secret mission, that is...... Keep up befriending Gurdan!

At the same time, in order to completely draw him to the camp of the imperial court, Kangxi not only analyzed Geerdan's strategic plan of "distant friendship and close attack" for him, but even secretly allocated the land of the left, center and right three banners of Karaqin with heavy troops to the Horqin Department, and the Manchu and Han military camp flags, the garrison armor men and the green battalion generals there also all belonged to him, the king of Horqin, to listen to the dispatch - you know, the land of the three banners of Karaqin is 500 miles from east to west, 450 miles from north to south, and the garrison has reached more than 70,000 people. And there are only 30,000 strong men in Horqin's headquarters, which is equivalent to making Zhuo Suotu triple his strength overnight! With such a great grace, of course, Zhuo Suotu is as tight as he wants to be behind Kangxi, not to mention that Kangxi also gave him another "iron coupon to avoid death"! (This story is from February's "Emperor Kangxi")

So, under Kangxi's light and dark decks of cards, Zhuo Suotu became close to Geerdan because of the reprimand and humiliation on the surface, so that Geerdan was even more desperate to win him over, and constantly sent a lot of gold, but secretly, Zhuo Suotu was paying attention to Geerdan's movements for Kangxi at any time, and 100,000 soldiers were at Kangxi's dispatch at any time! …… It can be said that Zhuo Suotu has called out Geerdan, and Geerdan is still counting the money for him! This is also to blame for Geldan, who underestimated Zhuo Suotu and these khan kings, and always thought about expansion, thinking that the Mongols had a lot of money, but they didn't take into account that others were also very strict against him!

It's just that Zhuo Suotu didn't expect that what he thought was very secret, and he didn't even tell his son, was broken by Luo Xin, and this little woman also directly exposed her original intention of "only taking money and not working"! This made Zhuo Suotu secretly admire and at the same time frightened, even this little woman could see through Geerdan's strategy, but she almost fell for the trick because of the gold, thinking that if it wasn't pointed out by Kangxi, her losses at that time would be really unpredictable! If the time comes for the imperial court to march westward, Kangxi is annoyed that he secretly communicated with Geerdan, and served himself and Geerdan, wouldn't he die a lot of wronged death? Thinking of the miserable scene after being surrounded by the imperial army and removing the throne, the sweat on his head couldn't stop rising!

"Fortunately, our Borzigit clan still has a character who can control the scene in Beijing, otherwise, the emperor may not have given me so much grace......" Zhuo Suotusi thought about it, and felt a little proud of his "wise" confession!

"It's just that Luo Xin is in trouble again! Her man seems to be a commander, and she is a county lord, how can I keep Gelong from being suspicious of me because of her arrival? Zhuo Suotu thought about it for a while, and then twitched his mouth, "What are you afraid of, do the Mongols still need a reason to entertain guests?" ”
