Kangxi sat at the back of the table and looked coldly at the few people kneeling in front of him: "Are you saying that Wu Sangui not only did not negotiate peace with us, but also tied up our people and sent them to the former Ming court?" ”

"Master, it's true, according to our people in the former Ming court, the puppet emperors of the former Ming court had the intention of relenting, and what they discussed was just a matter of conditions, but as soon as they heard about it, they immediately drove all our people away."

Kangxi gritted his teeth fiercely, after so many things, he also understood, don't be angry when you shouldn't be, otherwise you will make your courtiers look down on you, after suppressing this indignation, he opened his mouth lightly: "Send someone to negotiate with the puppet emperor of the former Ming Dynasty again." ”

"Master, I'm afraid he won't talk to us again this time。。。。。。"

Kangxi stood up suddenly: "If he doesn't talk about it, give him more silver and grain and grass, and the Qing Dynasty can't fight on two fronts anymore!" ”

"The minion understands, and the minion will send someone to continue the peace talks."

Cheng Xiaolian looked at the Manchu Lord An Ruxing in front of him and smiled: "I heard that Lord An is back again, I didn't want to see you, but the courtiers have said a lot of good things, I can only see you again, I don't know how much sincerity you have this time?" ”

An Ruxing was overjoyed in his heart, and the adults in the city brought the holy will at the same time with a sentence: "The officials of the Ming Dynasty are all corrupt officials, and they can do things for you with a little more silver. I didn't expect this sentence to be so in charge, the ministers of the Ming Dynasty are really particular, and they will do things after receiving the money.

Thinking of this, he also wanted to strike while the iron was hot: "The emperor understands the righteousness, saying that the world is the Ming Dynasty, although the Qing Dynasty conforms to the will of heaven, but after all, it occupies the Ming Dynasty, in order to make up for the Ming Dynasty, the court is willing to take out three million taels of silver, and I hope that our two families will always be brothers, and there will be no more military disasters." ”

Cheng Xiaolian snorted coldly: "At the beginning, I meant three million taels of silver plus Henan Mansion and Kaifeng Mansion, but now you only take three million taels of silver, it's really not sincere, come here, send off guests!" ”

"Emperor Ming, if you have any conditions, just say it, it is impossible for the Qing Dynasty to cede the land of the two provinces, and if this matter is done, the emperor will not be able to explain it to the people of the world."

"Since you are not willing to cede the two provinces, then exchange the silver, if you can't even give up the silver, we have nothing to talk about."

"We've come up with three million taels of silver, and that's our limit."

Cheng Xiaolian looked at Chen Chengan in the corner and suddenly slowly stretched out a palm, and laughed: "I won't ask for more, a place is counted as one million taels of silver, if we can take it out, we will talk peacefully, if I can't take it out, I won't see you again!" ”

An Ruxing gritted his teeth: "Does Emperor Ming dare to tell the world?" ”

"As long as I see the silver, I will definitely tell the world, will I still lie to you?"

"Okay, the minister will go to raise the silver, and the silver will be delivered within three days, and please don't forget today's words."

After everyone left, Cheng Xiaolian glanced at Chen Chengan: "I originally planned to ask for eight million taels of silver, why did you let me ask for five million taels?" ”

Chen Chengan laughed: "Your Majesty, you are too greedy, first, they may not be able to come up with so much silver, and the bottom line is about five million taels." The second most important thing is that if this news reaches Wu Sangui's ears, he will have to stir up the peace talks, and he won't be able to get a tael of silver at that time. ”

Cheng Xiaolian nodded: "That's right, what you get is your own silver." ”

Chen Chengan coughed: "But the minister has something to understand, does Your Majesty really want to negotiate peace with the Manchus?" I'm afraid that many people in the court will oppose it. ”

Cheng Xiaolian smiled meaningfully: "Of course we have to cooperate, where can I lie?" ”

Yang Youcai coughed: "In the past two days, An Ruxing has given a total of 100,000 taels of silver to the ministers in our city, and now the ministers have handed over the silver." ”

"Send it down, just say that I remember the courtiers who are brave and loyal, no one will send an extra amount this month, as long as they are loyal to work, I will not treat them badly."

Chen Cheng'an laughed: "Your Majesty took the silver of the Manchu Qing Dynasty to his courtiers, and this trick is perfect for borrowing flowers to offer Buddha." ”

"I call this the rational use of resources, besides, those ministers handed over the silver, there must be someone who is forced by the prestige of me and Jinyiwei, and there are complaints in their hearts, and they can't say for sure, there will be five million taels of silver in hand immediately, why should I fight with the officials for this small profit, what if they don't hand it over if there is such a thing in the future?"

Three days later, An Ruxing came to the city with a long convoy, followed by Tuhai's army: "It's not that I can't trust the Ming Emperor, it's just that this kind of thing is easy to misunderstand, and I also ask the Ming Emperor to bring someone out to take out the peace negotiation documents, and we both use it to print and distribute it to the world, and the silver will be given to the Ming Emperor." ”

I can't help but be nervous, this is five million taels of silver, if it is really lost here, he doesn't have to go back, just wipe his neck with a knife.

Cheng Xiaolian didn't care either, and waved his hand: "Yang Youcai, give them the edict, remember to count the silver clearly." ”

Yang Youcai took the edict, came to the outside of the city with a team of people, first checked the wooden boxes to ensure that each box was filled with silver, and then roughly estimated that there was no problem with the quantity, and stretched out his hand to hand over the edict: "This is our emperor's edict, it has been sealed, and your emperor can spread it all over the world if he adds a seal." ”

An Ruxing took the edict, carefully three or four times, to make sure that there were no flaws, checked the seal again, made sure that there were no flaws, and stretched out his hand to hand over an edict: "This is our emperor's edict, you use the seal, let's announce it to the world together, so that the people can also breathe a sigh of relief." ”

Yang Youcai took the edict and looked at it a few times, and laughed: "There is no problem with the edict, let's leave here." ”

Chen Chengan was a little anxious at Cheng Xiaolian's side at the head of the city: "Your Majesty, this kind of edict has to be counted, otherwise it will be laughed at by the world, don't you think it's just an edict, besides, the opposite side is still violated by the Manchu Qing Dynasty, which is related to a letter word, people can't stand without faith, and the country can't prosper without trust." ”

Cheng Xiaolian laughed: "Do you want to tell me, it's too late to regret it now?" ”

Chen Chengan nodded heavily, and Cheng Xiaolian coughed: "Put your heart in your stomach, when have I ever done anything like moving stones, don't worry, let's make a big fortune first, and then discuss the matter of recovering the country after digesting this big fortune." ”
