Chapter 1150 The sooner the better
Although Chi Qilong did not get a clear answer from Li Zicheng, Gong Dingyu repeatedly inquired about the information of the eighth princess at the banquet, how could he not understand in his heart?
At the banquet, he had a very happy conversation with Gong Dingyu, and on the way back to the city, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth.
The eighth princess Dazhe, the daughter of Emperor Chongde's empress Zhezhe, is the Gulun princess of the Qing Dynasty, with a noble status, no wonder the emperor of China will value her!
His only worry was that the eighth princess Dazhe had already made a promise, and she was also the eldest son of Bayas Hulang, the eldest son of the prince of Tushetu in the middle banner of Horqin's right wing.
Among the Horqin Mongol banners, Badali is the most important prince, and Bayas Hulang is the eldest son of Badali, who will inherit the title of prince in the future.
However, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, he could only wronged Bayas Hulang.
If Bayas Hulang refuses to give up, aren't there still nine princesses and ten princesses? Although they are not Princess Gulun, will their identity not be worthy of Bayas Hulang?
Uncle Regent is a sensible man, and for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, he will definitely make the right choice!
Compared with Chi Qilong, Luo Luohun looked preoccupied, bowing his head and not speaking, as if he was looking for a livestock with fresh pasture.
Chi Qilong's excitement disappeared a lot in an instant, "The county king is not satisfied with the wine of the Heavenly Mandate Army?" ”
"No, this distilled liquor of the Han people is strong enough, it is the wine of the masters!"
"Is the prince worried about Prince Badali and Bayas?"
"Badali?" Luo Luohun looked contemptuous, "Badali is just a domestic dog of the Qing Dynasty, whether it is for meat or bones, it all depends on the will of the Qing Dynasty, when does the Qing Dynasty care about them?" ”
"You ......" Chi Qi Longxin said, everyone knows this meaning, but how can such words be said casually? He shook his head lightly and said, "Is the county king worried about the emperor's uncle regent and Empress Xiaoduan?" ”
Luo Luohun shook his head, "With the wisdom of the emperor's uncle regent and Empress Xiaoduan, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, they will not be reluctant to give up a woman - no matter how noble the eighth princess is, she is just a woman, and sooner or later she will have to marry out." ”
"The ...... of the county king" Chi Qilong was a little dumbfounded, the contempt for Badali just now was understandable, but Luo Luohun's tone seemed to be a little unkind, "......What does the county king mean?"
Luo Luohun waved his hand, "It's nothing, after Mr. Chi returns to the city, he asks to see the emperor's uncle regent and Empress Xiaoduan, and tell the truth, you big foot, it's decided, maybe the emperor of Huaxia will give you a thank you gift!"
"Hey......" Chi Qilong also thought the same way, but he was faintly uneasy in his heart, "Why is the county king so sure?" ”
"Sir should know that in his heart, right?" Luo Luohun said: "Erdaopo is newly defeated, the warriors of the Qing Dynasty have suffered heavy casualties, and they are not able to drive away the Heavenly Mandate Army outside the city in a short period ......of time, and it will go on for a long time" He sighed, and said: "Even if the Heavenly Mandate Army does not break through Shengjing, what will happen to the livestock in the city?" Nested in the city, these animals will be killed sooner or later, what will the warriors eat next year? This king suspects that Huaxia chose to attack in the spring in order to interfere with the livestock #mating # mating and affect the birth of cubs ......"
Chi Qilong was stunned for a moment, he hadn't thought about these questions, but this kind of major matter was considered by the emperor's uncle regent, and his task was to send an envoy to Huaxia to complete the peace between the two sides, "Since the emperor's uncle regent and Empress Xiaoduan will agree to the matter of the eighth princess and the princess, why is the county king sullen, what is the county king worried about?" ”
"This king is thinking," Luo Luohun looked up at the sun that was already westward, feeling that it was the Qing Dynasty, but he couldn't be sure when the sun would disappear behind the distant mountains, and whether Huaxia was an important driver of the sun's set, he sighed, his face was very solemn, "Whether it is the Heavenly Mandate Khan, or Emperor Chongde, when will the Great Qing Dynasty be approached by the national capital?" ”
"The king of the county is ......"
Luo Luohun shook his head slightly, "It has always been a favor for the Qing Dynasty to marry the princess, when will it be the other party's turn to bargain?" The princess of the Qing Dynasty, how could she marry a Han person? ”
"Is the king of the county against the eighth princess and his relatives?" Chi Qilong felt that Luo Luohun was probably more than that, so he hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The king of the county is cautious, don't let people know!"
"No, this king does not send peace to the eight princesses of the Qing faction," Luo Luohun sighed faintly: "This is the only way to renew the life of the Qing Dynasty, this king understands Mr. Chi's thoughts, and even more understands the thoughts of the emperor's uncle regent." ”
"Why did the king ...... the county?"
"Mr. is a loyal elder, this king has always respected him, in front of Mr., this king will not hide his thoughts," Luo Luohun said: "Mr. thinks that if the eighth princess marries, the Heavenly Mandate Army will withdraw?" ”
"Only the Immortal Heaven and the Buddha know!" Chi Qilong's face showed a blankness, "The lower officials are doing their best to carry out the orders of the emperor's uncle regent!"
"Yes, we are all doing our best," Luo Luohun shook his head again, "Mr. Chi, if the Heavenly Mandate Army does not withdraw, can Shengjing hold it?" ”
Chi Qilong's sense of accomplishment just now has long been gone, and the Qing Dynasty has reached the era of marrying a princess and seeking peace, can it still be supported? But he won't say this kind of rebellious words, "The king of the county is always the flag lord with the red flag, and he should be more aware of the situation of the war, and the lower officials dare not speak falsely." ”
A wry smile appeared on Luo Luohun's face, "Sir, you don't need to say it, this king knows Mr.'s answer!"
Chi Qilong's heart was shocked, and his steps became heavy.
Luo Luohun turned his head and stared at Chi Qilong, "Sir, if, this king is saying if, if Shengjing is in an emergency, it is even more dangerous than this, where will the Great Qing Dynasty go?" Where does the gentleman go from here? ”
Chi Qilong's heart trembled violently, is this what the king of the county should say?
It's more dangerous than an emergency, isn't it a broken city?
Will the fortified Shengjing City be breached by the Heavenly Mandate Army?
Maybe the king of the county is right, what if...... The combat effectiveness of the Heavenly Mandate Army seems to be far beyond that of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also beyond my own thoughts, even the imperial uncle and the regent have no good countermeasures, otherwise, they will not send the ninth princess and relatives!
yes, what about the Qing Dynasty? What about yourself?
Chi Qilong raised his eyes and saw Luo Luohun's red pupils, his heart moved, avoiding Luo Luohun's gaze, and looking at the slowly sunset in the west, "The county king is drunk, and the lower officials should have listened to the wine of the county king, maybe the emperor's uncle and the regent are discussing countermeasures, the lower officials are officials of the Qing Dynasty, eating the Qing Dynasty's Yulu, and there is blood flowing on his body, no matter what, the lower officials will stand with the imperial court......"
Luo Luo sighed secretly, "Is the wine too high?" This king is willing to drink high, but I hope he never wakes up!"
"The king of the county is cautious!" Chi Qilong is also the same as Luo Luohun, and his mood is extremely heavy.
When they arrived at the south gate, the soldiers at the head of the city hung them up one by one with bamboo baskets, and Luo Luohun was supposed to report the envoy to Dolgon, but he took his leave and returned home on the grounds that he was not feeling well.
Chi Qilong went to Prince Rui's mansion alone and asked to see Dolgon, originally thought that to persuade Dolgon, he needed to speak a little, but he didn't expect Dolgon to listen to the report, and actually patted his shoulder and praised him, "Mr. Chi can complete such a task, it is really hard work, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, Mr. is fortunate!" Mr. stay in the house to drink tea and dine, while the sky is not dark and the palace gate is not closed, this king will enter the palace to ask to see the emperor and Queen Xiaoduan, I believe that there will be a message back soon!"
"The minister obeys the will of the emperor's uncle regent!"
Dolgon, as if he had met a happy event, laughed and left.
Chi Qilong had an aversion to the emperor's uncle regent for the first time, and the Qing Dynasty repeatedly fought unfavorably, and was forced to send a woman to sue for peace, is this something worth showing off?
Perhaps Luo Luohun was right to be worried......
He picked up the teacup and tasted the tea slowly, because his mind was too heavy, and he didn't taste the slightest taste!
Luo Luohun's words deeply touched his mind.
What to do with the Great Qing Dynasty?
Chi Qilong didn't wait long, just after dinner in Prince Rui's mansion, Dolgon came back from the palace, with a smile on his face, and bowed his hand to Chi Qilong, "Let Mr. wait for a long time!"
"Uncle Huang's regent, the regent, has every opportunity, for the sake of the Qing Dynasty, he will work tirelessly, and his subordinates and so on should also be," Chi Qilong hurriedly got up and returned the salute, "The emperor and Empress Xiaoduan ......"
"The emperor is young and has not yet been in power, and the emperor cannot make the decision for such a major matter, and the king will decide by himself," Dolgon sat down on the throne by himself, and with a light touch of his finger, he asked Chi Qilong to sit down and speak, "It's Queen Xiaoduan, after all, it's her daughter-in-law...... Hey, it's a bit of a tongue for the king!"
Chi Qilong hurriedly said: "So, the emperor and Queen Xiaoduan's side have a grace?" ”
"Naturally," Dolgon tapped his finger lightly on the desk, "Tomorrow Mr. Xingku will go out of the city again and negotiate with Huaxia in person." ”
"Your Majesty has an unshirkable responsibility!" Chi Qilong said cautiously: "It's just...... The matter is so urgent, will Huaxia be suspicious? ”
"It's not a hurry," Dolgon said to himself, is it more urgent than Shengjing City? "Sir, don't worry, the envoy is, you must implement the matter as soon as possible, and send the eighth princess over here!"
"Obey the order!" Chi Qilong lowered his head, and he had a different feeling in his heart.
"Huh?" Dolgon was suddenly a little surprised, "It's this time tonight, why didn't the Providential Army fire on the city?" In the first two days, didn't the Mandate of Heaven Army open fire as soon as it gets dark and create chaos in the city? ”
"Is it because of the harmony?" Chi Qilong's heart didn't have half a point of joy, when did Daqing look up to people and snort?
"It must be because of the matter of the eighth princess, Li Zicheng always has to make some gestures!" Dolgon gently pounded the desk, "Mr. Chi, tomorrow's envoy, don't complete a big thing!"
"Big deal?" Chi Qilong retracted his mind and said, "Please ask the emperor's uncle regent to make it clear!"
Dolgon got up, paced around the desk, sometimes clenched his hands, the green tendons on his temples bloomed, sometimes his hands were released, he shook his head and sighed, and suddenly the ground turned pale, as if he had made a major decision, and whispered to Chi Qilong's ear: "Sir, when you go out of the city tomorrow, you have to be like this, I am not afraid that Li Zicheng will not be moved......"
Chi Qilong's face was as shocked as earth, "Uncle Huang, Lord Regent, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?" ”
"Why not?" Dolgon smiled, "Don't worry, everything is arranged by this king, Mr. only needs to act according to the plan, don't let Li Zicheng and his relatives implement it as soon as possible, the sooner the better......"
