Chapter 164 My Land, My People, My Country, My Species
"Huh?" The emperor was stunned again, "Born and raised? Deep eyes, high nose bridge, red hair, green eyes? I can't think of that...... Uh, where are they? β
"The emperor understands when he thinks about itβ" Guan Zhuofan said with a smile, "It's in Xinjiang, which we just took back." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ ο½ο½ο½ο½β
"Ah...... Yes! β
The emperor suddenly thought for a moment and said, "I have seen the portrait of Emperor Gao Zongchun's concubine Rong - she is a Uyghur, right?" What does she look like...... Well, compared to our Central Plains women, it seems to be ...... The eye sockets should be deeper, and the bridge of the nose should be higher. β
"By the way," Guan Zhuofan said, "Emperor Gaozongchun's Concubine Rong is a Uyghur - the appearance of a Uyghur is not quite the same as that of the Central Plains, with deeper eye sockets and a higher nose bridge. β
"But," the emperor hesitated, "I remember Concubine Rong's hair and eyes...... It's all black, you said with red hair and green eyesβ"
"Also in Xinjiang."
"Oh?"
"This is a great victory in Kashgar," said Guan Zhuofan, "and there was a bandit leader named Alidash, the first general under Berkhuri, who fled to Selkul and was captured by the local Tajiks and sent to the Tajiks, the camp of Zhandonglu, who had red hair and green eyes. β
After a pause, "Tajiks are not all red-haired and green-eyed, but there are quite a few red-haired and green-eyed. β
"We China," the emperor said happily, "there are really natives with red hair and green eyes, which is interesting......
After a pause, "This Tajik is a loyal man!" Still, uh...... Tajik? They are too...... Uyghurs? β
Guan Zhuofan only then found out that he said that he was bald, in this era, there is no official statement of "Tajikistan", and the administrative body of Selkul is generally called "Huizhuang", and before "entanglement" was renamed "Uygur", in the eyes of the imperial court, Selkul was also under the rule of "Entanglement".
Belch...... It's a hassle to cross.
"'Tajik' is the name of the locals, and they are not the same ethnic group as the Uyghurs, and moreover, although the Tajiks and the Uyghurs believe in Islam, they are not the same faction." β
After a pause, "What should they call their clan, whether it should be called 'Tajikistan', when Xinjiang is established as a province, let's consider and agree!" β
The emperor nodded, "Red-haired, green-eyed Chinese - hey, I can see it!" β
After a pause, he said regretfully, "Actually, not to mention red hair and green eyes, I haven't seen deep eyes and a high nose bridge - Concubine Rong is just a portrait, not a real person!" β
Guan Zhuofan's heart moved, and the thought was spinning in his mind, so he didn't answer immediately.
The emperor thought that he was in trouble, and hurriedly said: "I'm just talking, don't take it seriously!" Xinjiang is thousands of miles away from Beijing! Where can you see whomever you want? β
"The Tajiks," said Guan Zhuofan, "is there a suitable name for them to enter Beijing, let me think again; However, Zuo Zongtang and Zhan Donglu are going to send two Uyghurs to Beijing, one of them, and the emperor may be able to meet him when the time comes. β
"Oh?" The Emperor was very interested, "What kind of person?" β
"One is called Renagul, and the other is called Niazi," Guan Zhuofan said, "I said, 'The emperor may be able to meet him', and it was the one from the previous one, named Renaguli." β
After a pause, "Both of them are from Khotan, and most of them know each other - Renagul is the daughter of Hotan 'Pasha' Habibullah, and Niazi is Habibullah's close subordinate. β
"The so-called 'Pasha' is a false name, and this Habibullah, taking advantage of the chaos to usurp Khotan, is actually also a rebellion."
"Agubai's means of attacking Hotan are very despicable, he went to Hotan in the name of 'pilgrimage', earned the gate of Hotan, not only occupied the magpie's nest, but also slaughtered the city, the whole Habibullah clan was killed, only Renagul was alone, because of his beauty, he saved a life, and was used as a trophy by the Kashgar soldiers and dedicated to Agubai."
"After the incident, Aguba appointed Niazi as the 'Burke' of Hotan."
"The reason why Habibullah fell into the trap, the people of Hotan all said, is because Niazi betrayed the Lord to seek glory, secretly communicated with Aguba, and in front of Habibullah, vouched for Aguba's oath to heaven, and Habibullah believed his words, so he did not take precautions and opened the city gates."
However, Niazi denied it very much, saying that the truth was quite the opposite, and he had advised Habibullah to be careful of Aguba, but it was a pity that Habibullah did not accept it; He accepted Aguba's false position for the sake of his father and fellow villagers - if he asked the Kokand people to be the 'Burke' of Khotan, the life of the Hotan people would only be more difficult. β
"Later, Huli Burke thought that Aguba intended to abolish the elder and younger, so he struck first and made a strong move, and one of Aguba's favorite concubines, and killed his father - this favorite concubine was Gena Guli."
Hearing this, the emperor couldn't help but let out a soft "ah".
"The process of poisoning was very smooth," Guan Zhuofan said, "What I didn't expect was that Agubai's body was extremely strong, and although he drank poisoned wine, he didn't even die, but just tossed and moaned, so Renagul took a white silk and wrapped it around Agubai's neck, and tightened it, Agubai struggled for a while, and finally died." β
The emperor's heart was pounding.
"Let's talk about Niazi at the other end," Guan Zhuofan said, "the army of the Western Expedition went south, Kuqa anyway, sent people to contact Hotan, and lobbied Niazi to start an incident, Niazi was the first rat at both ends, and the Kuqa envoy returned in vain, but the news of the private exchange between Kuqa and Hotan was detected by Berkhuli, and he personally led a large army to crusade against Hotan, Niazi knew that he was invincible, and did not wait for the Kokand soldiers to enter Hotan, so he abandoned the city, crossed the desert, and went to Kucha. β
"When the army of the Western Expedition invaded Kashgar, Berkhuri fled in a hurry, and before he ran away, he thought that he would take a man with him - that is, Renagul. However, what he really didn't expect was that when he saw Renagul, instead of refusing to go with him, Renagul gave him a shot in the chest - and Berkhuri was killed. β
The emperor let out another "ah", and his face changed.
After a moment, he said in a trembling voice, "That is...... Aguba, Berkhuri, it's all her...... Killed with your own hands? β
"Not bad!"
At the dinner table, there was a brief silence.
After a while, the Emperor whispered, "This woman, it'sβ"
She couldn't find the right adjective, so she froze for a moment and sighed softly, "Alas......"
"Renaguli said to Zhan Donglu," Guan Zhuofan said, "Xinjiang is her sad place, she has no relatives in Xinjiang, she can't stay in Xinjiang anymore." β
"So...... Want to send it to Beijing? β
"Yes."
After a pause, Guan Zhuofan continued, "As for Niazi, he said that he admired sanctification and asked to enter Beijing for a 'pilgrimage', and the implication was very clear - he could not stay in Xinjiang either. β
"This is the truth, the Uyghurs, especially the Hotan people, all regard Niazi as a 'Uyghur traitor', and if he stays in Xinjiang, sooner or later, he will die at the hands of his own people."
"Ni is not only rebellious, but also, if the betrayal of the Lord and seeking glory is true, his character is also very despicable, but if he has an action of taking the initiative to go to Kuqa, it cannot be regarded as his 'anyway'. Zhan Donglu and Zuo Zongtang didn't know what to do with him, so they had to send them to Beijing to talk about it. β
"This is a villain, the emperor doesn't have to pay attention to him; Catechist, it's Renagul - does the emperor want to see her? β
The emperor hesitated for a moment, and said timidly: "This woman is too ...... Awesome, I ...... I'm a little scared to see her......"
After a pause, he sighed, "However, she is really pitiful......"
Speaking of this, he raised his head and said softly, "I know, whether I see her or not, there are serious reasons, they are all state affairs, and you don't care if I want to see or not - if you want to see her, I will see you." β
Guan Zhuofan smiled and said: "It's rare for the emperor to be so well--what the envoys of the eight countries said is not bad at all, you will definitely become a very wise emperor!" β
The Emperor smiled.
"That's right," Guan Zhuofan said, "Originally, Agubai and Berkehuri, the two evils before and after, are all the blades of Renagul, and seriously speaking, she has made great contributions to quelling the rebellion of the pseudo-'Hongfu Khanate', and she should be commended and rewarded, but she really wants to be commended and rewarded, but she doesn't know how to be caught off guard." β
