After Li Zicheng got up in the morning, he had some activities outside the big tent, and then had breakfast under the service of his own soldiers, and was about to go to the west and north outside the city to inspect it, He Xiaomi: "Your Majesty, that Chi Qilong is here again!"

"Again? It's good to come!" Li Zicheng said in his heart: "If you come so diligently, you must have asked for something, right?" Inside the Manchu court, what went wrong?

It doesn't make sense, the people of the Han and Qing Departments have not sent back important information, maybe the high-level of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the Northern Division has not yet penetrated in.

I wonder what the Shadowless Clans are doing, and if they assassinate Dolgon, will it make the situation in the Manchus even more chaotic?

No, the situation is unclear now, don't risk moving Dolgon for the time being, Dolgon's new defeat at Erdaopo has damaged its prestige, and the Manchu court may have been in turmoil......

Can Dolgon still stabilize the Manchu court?

Dolgon is not impossible to kill, but now is not the time, killing Dolgon, the Manchus will only change a regent, or hand over the power of the court to Zilharang again, and complete the natural transition of the power, which will not benefit Huaxia.

In vain to make a wedding dress for Zilharan!

It is now in the best interest of China to let the forces that oppose Dolgon gradually surface, contain Dolgon's actions, and maintain the stability of the Manchu and Qing dynasties......

As for the assassination of Dolgon, it was to bring about the complete collapse of the Manchus......

He Xiaomi saw that the emperor was silent, and he didn't dare to urge too much, "Your Majesty, let Chi Qilong go to the camp next door to wait!"

"Well," Li Zicheng nodded, "Let Gong Dingyu talk to him first!"

"Your Majesty, Lord Gong has already met with Chi Qilong, but Chi Qilong said that there is one thing that must be decided by the emperor himself......"

"Oh? Does Gong Aiqing know about this? ”

"You should know!" He Xiaoxiao said: "At that time, Lord Gong was next to him, and he was silent with a smile......

"Smiling?" Li Zicheng said in his heart, what could it be? Didn't he explain to him and let him delay for a long time?

The Marine Corps of the North Sea Fleet is at least a day's way from Shengjing, and the Tiger Cavalry, Wolf Cavalry, and the Fifth Division can set off tonight, and the battle will start soon.

At this juncture, we must stabilize Dolgon, after all, there are tens of thousands of cavalry in the city, once released, the strength of the Mandate of Heaven outside the city is insufficient, and the people outside the city will suffer, and the defeated Tartars cannot be restrained, which is more terrible than the Tartars who have won the battle.

"The Emperor's ......"

Li Zicheng stopped his fugue, shook his head and smiled, "Okay, Xiaomi, let Chi Qilong come over, is that Luo Wenfeng here?" ”

"Back to the emperor, no," He Xiaoxiao said: "The minister asked Chi Qilong, it seems that Luo Wenfeng is sick and is recuperating in the mansion!"

"Oh?" Li Zicheng replied casually, but he was puzzled in his heart, Luo Luohun was fine yesterday, and he drank a lot of distilled spirits, why did he get sick overnight? Is it fighting for the soldiers with the red flag? For the time being, I can only think like this, "Xiaomi, let Chi Qilong come over!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

He Xiaomi brought Chi Qilong into Li Zicheng's big tent, Chi Qilong did not come alone, but with a young entourage with clear eyebrows, he glanced at the entourage, and both of them saluted Li Zicheng, "Meet the emperor of Huaxia!"

"No need to be polite, Mr. Chi, we are old friends," Li Zicheng pointed to the entourage, "Mr. Chi, why didn't Deputy Envoy Luo come?" This is ......"

"Vice Envoy Luo is not feeling well, so he is recuperating in the mansion!"

Li Zicheng frowned slightly, Chi Qilong did not answer the identity of the entourage, obviously not an ordinary person, he glanced at the faces of the two, and said with a faint smile: "You two don't have to be polite, sit down!"

"Emperor Xie!"

Li Zicheng asked He Xiaomi to serve tea and said, "Mr. Chi left the city so quickly, could it be that yesterday's meeting was ...... Is it for the sake of the eighth princess? ”

Chi Qilong saluted Li Zicheng, glanced at his entourage again, and showed embarrassment on his face, "Your Majesty, the eighth princess has promised Bayas Hulang, the son of the Horqin Right Wing Central Banner......"

"What does Mr. Chi mean......"

"Back to the emperor, this envoy went back to the city and reported to the emperor, the emperor's uncle regent, and Empress Xiaoduan's intentions," Chi Qilong unconsciously turned his head and glanced at the entourage, and said: "The eighth princess has mediocre qualifications, is rude and willful, and has already promised people...... Can the emperor choose from other princesses? If the emperor can trust the envoy, the envoy will definitely recommend a beautiful and gentle princess for the emperor......"

"Mediocre qualifications, brutal and capricious?" Li Zicheng laughed, "Mr. Chi, you slandered the eighth princess so much behind your back, once you let the eighth princess know this, I'm afraid she may not thank you, right?" ”

The entourage's face was like frost, and he looked very cold, and he gave Li Zicheng a roll of his eyes.

"Don't misunderstand, the emperor didn't mean to blaspheme the eighth princess," Chi Qilong wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead and said carefully: "The emperor's meaning ......"

"Mr. Chi, it is rumored that the eighth princess is naturally beautiful, beautiful and elegant, especially the skin, deceiving the frost and snow, and gentle and demure, falling and generous, not only the pearl of the palm of the queen of filial piety, in the city of Shengjing, it is a blessing to see the face of the eighth princess," Li Zicheng said: "If the eighth princess suddenly appears in the city, people from all walks of life, in order to see the face of the eighth princess, should all put down the work of guarding, one person appears, and all the alleys are ......empty."

"Is the eighth princess so good...... the entourage "poofed" smiled, and when she met Li Zicheng's gaze, her white face turned red, and a layer of frost quickly formed.

Chi Qilong was stunned for a moment, his eyes swept over his entourage, and he said: "Your Majesty, although the eighth princess has an outstanding appearance and a gentle temperament, she is not as ...... as the emperor said."

"Haha," Li Zicheng said with a smile: "The rumors in the room may not be true, but they are not far from ten, I have never seen the eighth princess, I can only believe the rumors in the room, so I let Gong Dingyu spread the rumor to Mr. yesterday, it is best that the eighth princess can understand my mind." ”

The attendant glanced at Li Zicheng, lowered her head and did not speak, but she sat opposite Li Zicheng and was always in Li Zicheng's sight, looking quite embarrassed.

Chi Qilong hesitated for a moment, his face was embarrassed, but he still bowed his hand to Li Zicheng, "Does the emperor have to be the eighth princess and his relatives?" ”

Li Zicheng said in his heart: Chi Qilong won't be in the next set, right? agreed to the matter of harmony so easily, how can it be delayed next?

He thought for a moment, but decided to drag it out, and said with a slight smile: "There is a big gap between what Mr. Chi said, so ...... So, I'm a little skeptical now......"

Chi Qilong hurriedly said: "Is the emperor suspicious of the appearance and virtuousness of the eighth princess? ”

"There is an old saying among the Han people: hearing is false, seeing is believing!" Li Zicheng said lightly: "It's not doubtful, after all, the eighth princess is the daughter of Queen Xiaoduan, and her appearance and conduct will not be any worse, and she will not be like a scoundrel in the market, right?" ”

The young entourage snorted coldly, as if he wanted to speak, his thin and ruddy lips moved slightly, Chi Qilong hurriedly made a look, but he gave his hand to Li Zicheng, "The emperor said that he laughed, the eighth princess has a noble status, how can she be compared to a villain in the market?" ”

"I'll just say it! The eighth princess has a good reputation, she should be born with a closed moon and a shy flower, a sinking fish and a goose, and she should be taught by the queen of filial piety, and her conduct should be good," Li Zicheng nodded slightly, and said: "It's Mr. Chi, one will say that the eighth princess has mediocre qualifications and is rude and willful, and the other will say that the eighth princess has outstanding appearance and gentle temperament, plus this rumor, I am confused." ”

"The Emperor's ......"

Li Zicheng waved his hand and said: "Mr. Chi, I am the lord of thousands of miles of rivers and mountains in China, the woman I want to marry must always be worthy of the people and the court of China, if I marry the brutal and willful princess of the Qing Dynasty and return to Beijing, the ministers will cry one by one and want to withdraw from the marriage, won't it hurt the harmony of the two families at that time?" Then the original intention of our relationship has changed...... After all, I am the emperor of China, and there are some things that I can't help myself, does Mr. Chi understand my thoughts? ”

"Understood, understood," Chi Qilong hurriedly said, "Then is the emperor willing to marry the eighth princess?" ”

"Whether you want to or not, it's not entirely up to me to decide," Li Zicheng said: "Mr. Chi, we might as well analyze it little by little!"

"Your Majesty, please tell me more!"

"First of all, the eighth princess is a promiser, I heard that the future forehead is still the eldest son of Bayas Hulang, the prince of Tushetu in the middle banner of the right wing of Horqin, Bayas Hulang, with a noble status......"

The young entourage said angrily: "Since the emperor knows, why do you want to break up the ......?"

Chi Qilong was taken aback, and hurriedly scolded: "Don't be rude...... and bow his hand to Li Zicheng again, "Don't blame the emperor, the deputy envoy is young and doesn't understand the etiquette of Huaxia......"

"It doesn't matter, if you have more contacts in the future, you will be familiar with the etiquette of Huaxia," Li Zicheng glanced at the young deputy envoy and said: "Let's talk about this Bayas Hulang, Korqin is just a servant of the Qing Dynasty, no matter how noble Bayas Hulang's status is, he is just a slave of the Qing Dynasty, does the Qing Dynasty need to care about his feelings?" The gift of the Qing Dynasty can be given to him, or it can be taken back at any time, so the eighth princess's 'promise' doesn't seem to be a reason. ”

"Your Majesty, this ......"

"Mr. Chi went back and thought about it, my reasons are not too profound," Li Zicheng continued: "Let's talk about Empress Xiaoduan!"

"Empress Xiaoduan?"

"The eighth princess is the concubine of Empress Xiaoduan, and the marriage of the eighth princess naturally has to seek the opinion of Empress Xiaoduan, 'the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker'," Li Zicheng continued: "I am the emperor of China, rich in thousands of miles of rivers and mountains, with more than 100 million people, if I marry the eighth princess, it is not humiliating, and Empress Xiaoduan must not refuse this great family affair, but," Li Zicheng said this, suddenly paused, and said: "Once I marry the eighth princess, I will bring her back to Beijing, Shengjing and Jingshi, separated by thousands of miles, If the eighth princess sees Queen Xiaoduan again in the future, it will be difficult, so I think about it, Queen Xiaoduan must be reluctant......"

Chi Qilong was shocked in his heart, and hurriedly said: "The emperor can rest assured, although Queen Xiaoduan is reluctant, but she is a person who understands righteousness, for the friendship between the two countries to last forever, she will never be reluctant to let go of the eighth princess, besides, the two families are good for Qin and Jin, the royal family is relatives, and they can also move around each other, and when the time comes, it is common for Queen Xiaoduan to go to Beijing to visit the eighth princess, or the eighth princess to go back to Shengjing for a walk......
