439. Bullying (Part II)

Weak countries have no diplomacy, this is a common sense, originally there is nothing to talk about, the Qing Dynasty in the current era is a strong country, although there are some suspicions of foreign power, but after all, it is still a strong country, even a first-class power in the world today, with a strong strength as a guarantee, diplomacy This thing will be useful, the signing of the two treaties marks the Qing Empire completely abandoned the thinking of being an emperor behind closed doors, and officially stepped on the international stage, It's just that most of the countrymen and even the ministers of the court at that time didn't realize the importance of this move, of course, this majority did not include Prince Cheng Yunzhi.

Who is Prince Cheng Yunzhi? If beating sticks is his profession, extortion is his hobby, when Yinzuo was still a brother, he was not less angry with Yunzhi's professional hobbies, this time, Yunzhi, who was originally long-sleeved and good at dancing, got Yinzuo's will, so he couldn't focus on the "diplomatic career" and even toss around with professional and extracurricular hobbies. What others think, Jin likes not knows, but Jin likes to be clear - after Prince Cheng's meticulous "care", he has become "rich" to the point that there is only a change of underwear left, of course, there is a loss, there is a gain, and Jin like, who was ransacked by Prince Cheng, finally got a promise - His Majesty the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty agreed to meet the Russian ambassador.

"Foreign Minister Jin likes to knock on His Majesty the Emperor. As soon as Jin liked to enter the palace of nourishing hearts, he immediately knelt on the ground, kowtowed, and his face was full of flattering smiles, in his opinion, Yinzuo's calm face was kinder than Prince Cheng's always smiling face, and as for Colonel Teprovsky, who claimed to be Peter the Great's special envoy, he stood silently with his hat in his hand.

"Uh-huh, Jin likes it, is your Emperor Peter planning to declare war on me again? Well? Yinzuo said knowingly, in fact, the intention of the Russian mission has already been tricked by Yunzhi - after the first battle of Brento Haizi. The military strength of the entire Russian Far East has been completely lost, and less than 800 of the more than 10,000 people who can escape back are left, and now Peter the Great is not thinking about how to conquer the Qing Dynasty, but fearing that the Qing Dynasty has taken this opportunity to annex the Russian Far East, and the purpose of sending the envoy is to show goodwill to the Qing Dynasty, hoping to maintain the existing borders; the second is to see if the captured Russian officers and soldiers can be ransomed; Third, we should see if we can purchase some advanced weapons and equipment from the Qing Dynasty. After all, Russia's main enemies were the Swedish and Turkish Empires. Peter the Great did not want to and did not dare to make enemies everywhere, especially the Qing Dynasty, which now has a strong military force, which Peter the Great did not want to provoke.

"Oh, Your Majesty the Emperor, misunderstanding, misunderstanding, this is a great misunderstanding, and the Foreign Minister, on behalf of His Majesty Emperor Peter, apologizes to His Majesty for the misunderstanding that has occurred. I hope that you and I can maintain the status quo of good-neighborliness and friendship, our emperor ......" Jin liked to hear Yinzuo's tone was not good, and explained in a hurry.

Yin Zuo sneered, waved his hand to interrupt Jin Li's nonsense, and said calmly: "Jin likes it." You are so bold, you dare to lie and coax me, hehe, your Emperor Peter sent an army to my Daqing to make trouble. Can a misunderstanding be explained? Okay, I'll send some soldiers and horses to Russia for a walk, and I'll say I'm sorry when I turn around? Well? ”

"This ......" Jin likes to be essentially a businessman, not a professional diplomat, at this time, when he saw Yinzuo angry, he was immediately frightened and trembled, kowtowed like garlic and said: "The saint is angry, the saint is angry." Foreign minister, ah, no, this is really a misunderstanding, it is all the damned Seryov on his own initiative, the emperor of the contempt country really does not know, please forgive me, foreign minister......"

"Your Majesty the Emperor of the Great Qing Dynasty, I. His Majesty the Great Russian Empire Peter the Emperor was a military attaché. Petrovich; Teprovsky, on behalf of His Majesty the Emperor Peter. I salute you and allow me to present to you the credentials of His Majesty the Emperor of our country. Colonel Teprovsky, who had been silent, suddenly opened his mouth in Chinese, and although some of the words were pronounced inaccurately and his tone was a little strange, he was still fluent, and he immediately listened to Yinzuo.

Hmm, it seems that this envoy is the one in charge, ***, the military attaché? This Chinese is authentic enough, and Peter's kid can keep a person who understands Chinese by his side as an attendant military attaché, which shows that in Peter's original abacus, the Qing Dynasty is just a big meal, damn it! Yinzuo's mind moved quickly, but he didn't speak, just waved his hand and motioned to Gao Nianying, who was accompanying him, to take the so-called national letter in Colonel Teprovsky's hand.

The national letter with the big red cover is in Russian and Chinese, and a large article is sprinkled with a large article, except for clichés, there is no substantive content, at most it is the three requirements that Yinzuo already knows. Yinzuo quickly scanned the national letter, casually threw the national book on the dragon table, stared at Colonel Teprovsky with sharp eyes like a knife, and said coldly: "Colonel, did your emperor send you here to tell me these nonsense?" ”

"Your Majesty the Emperor, Your Majesty apologizes for the misunderstanding that has occurred, and I would like to see the great Russian Empire maintain the tradition of good-neighborliness and friendship with your country, and I ask your Majesty to allow those lost officers and soldiers to return to their hometowns and reunite with their relatives in order to show His Majesty's mercy. Colonel Teprovsky was not agitated by the snub and spoke freely.

Neighborliness? Hehe, this group of old hairy people knows what good neighborliness and friendship are? Fuck, Yaksa, Hyland, and other friendships, and leave them to themselves, fuck you! As soon as Yinzuo remembered the Hailan Pao tragedy in the time and space in his previous life, the fire in his heart rose, but he didn't bring it to his face, and said lightly: "You are waiting to ask for an audience, I have already seen it, I have no time to deal with these trivial matters, I want to negotiate, I will send someone to negotiate with you, and you can go." ”

"Your Majesty, please allow me to ......" Yinzuo's words were orders, and together with the Ouchi guards and eunuchs, regardless of what Colonel Teprovsky wanted to say, they rushed forward, and drove out of the palace together with Jin Xi, and handed them over to the officers and soldiers of the Nine Gates Admiral Yamen to escort back to the Russian Pavilion, and once again took care of the Russian Mission.

"Third brother, it's up to you to negotiate with Lao Maozi. Yin Zuogao sat on the dragon chair, glanced at Prince Cheng Yunzhi, who rushed to hear the news, and said in a word: "I will give you a few guidelines: the first one: Lao Maozi wants to redeem the captured officers and soldiers, but he must buy it with silver, as for how much, the third brother has the idea, there is no need to ask me; Article 2: Take back the territory from the Ergun River to Lake Baikal ceded in the Treaty of Nebuchu, and if Lao Maozi does not agree, tell them that I will immediately send troops to get it myself, and then it will not be the current condition; Article 3: Trade is possible, but if you want to buy weapons, you can't buy weapons. Don't pay attention to the threat of war from Lao Maozi, they don't have that strength, just let the third brother do it, everything is up to you. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. Yunzhi kowtowed respectfully, his face full of happiness, and he generally remembered his professional hobby again.

Yinzuo nodded with satisfaction and said: "Well, that's good, there are a few other things that the third brother will also hurry up to implement: I plan to build the British, Dutch, and Russian embassies in the eastern suburbs, well, just put it together with the 'Siyi Pavilion' in Dongjiaomin Lane, and in the future, other countries will come to my Qing Dynasty to be stationed there, as for the relocation of the original residents of Dongjiaomin Lane, the third brother can negotiate with Shuntianfu, and I will give you a will when I go back." The second issue is the selection of envoys to Britain and the Netherlands, and the third brother urges the Ministry of Rites to seize the time to sort out the regulations and send them out as soon as possible. The third article is a bit tricky: from now on, there will be many countries that come to our Qing Dynasty to ask for the establishment of diplomatic relations, and in addition to doing a good job in reception, it is more important for the Ministry of Rites to train a group of qualified ambassadors, translators and other candidates as soon as possible, so that students can learn the languages and diplomatic etiquette of other countries, and don't smear my face when they go to other countries. ”

"Your Majesty. "Yunzhi is very energetic when he hears diplomacy now, and at this time, seeing Yinzuo completely let him handle this matter, his mood is naturally very excited, and his face is so smiling that he can't see his eyes, "Shengshang, the first one is easy to do, there is a lot of vacant land in the left and right Jingshi, and the cost of relocation will not be too much, if the Ministry of Industry can come forward, it may be a lot faster; Article 2 has been completed, and the statute can be sorted out by tomorrow at the latest; As for the third article, the minister did not dare to deceive the saint, and the minister had already sorted out the folds, so please ask the saint to take a look. ”

Uh-huh, this guy is really a natural diplomat, amazing, hehe, it's only been more than a month since he came into contact with diplomacy, and he has already played it superbly, yes, the famous hall of the Foreign Affairs University has come out. Yinzuo took a look at the fold handed over by Yunzhi, felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and said with a smile: "The third brother has a heart, the Ministry of Industry will issue an order, the matter of this Foreign Affairs Academy is approved, and the third brother will let it go." ”
