Jierharang secretly entered the capital, although he is the prince of the Qing Dynasty, but this time the mission is too important, fortunately, the passage of Liaodong is very convenient, and Jierharang is also very familiar with the Daming capital, so it is not a particularly difficult thing to come to the Daming capital. To say that the Manchurians entered the territory of the Ming Dynasty, the most obvious feature is the hair, but after entering October, the weather is getting colder, and wearing a hat will not be suspicious.

Huang Taiji's understanding is always forward, and it is precisely with these wisdom that he can be supported by the Manchu nobles, can be identified as the successor by Nurhachi, and can be supported by many tribes in the grassland, ascend the throne as the emperor, and establish the Great Qing Dynasty. In terms of the alliance with the Ming court, Huang Taiji showed an unusual understanding.

The vast majority of the Manchu nobles believe that Su Tiancheng's ascension to the throne is the best opportunity for the emperor, and the strength of the Ming Dynasty will suffer great damage, and at this time, the attack from the direction of Liaodong will be able to obtain the greatest benefits, but unfortunately Huang Taiji is not such a view, perhaps at the beginning, Huang Taiji also wanted to be able to profit from it, but after careful thinking, Huang Taiji denied such a point of view, and asked Dolgon to lead the army and return to Yaozhou and Haizhou, ready to fight with the Jiangning battalion led by Su Tiancheng.

This requires great courage and wisdom, the move to turn enemies into friends is not easy to do, the top class of the Manchurian nobles, after a fierce debate, finally accepted Huang Taiji's point of view, this is also because many Manchu nobles do know that Su Tiancheng and Jiang Ningying are powerful, if they take advantage of the fire at this time to rob, causing the Ming Dynasty to fall to the ground, to a certain extent, it is directly helping Su Tiancheng and the Great Jin Dynasty. It will lead to a harsher blow to the Qing Kingdom, and this kind of thing that goes against its own interests should not be done well.

Zilharang accepted Huang Taiji's opinion from the heart, in fact, at the earliest time, he put forward such a view, I am afraid to adopt a joint posture.

Zilharang was involved in several successive negotiations. There is still some understanding of the Ming court, when he was in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, he also heard a lot of discussions, and also collected some information, for what Su Tiancheng did, Zierharang can only be described with fear, after Su Tiancheng entered the Ming court, where he lived, the people were able to live a good life. Taxation can be increased, especially in the devastated Dengzhou and Laizhou places, creating a prosperous situation, and this ability cannot be said in a few words.

Jierharang, who understands the situation, also believes that the biggest enemy of the Great Qing State is Su Tiancheng, that is, the current Great Jin Dynasty, as for the Ming Dynasty. Time is running out to hold on.

Zilharang secretly consulted with Huang Taiji and Haoge several times to unite the Ming court. The point of view of dealing with the Great Jin Dynasty and Su Tiancheng is highly unified, but there are also subtleties in this, that is, when uniting, what kind of means and measures can be taken to ensure that their own interests are maximized.

The Qing Dynasty submitted to the Ming Dynasty. There is an agreement signed earlier, so this time Jierharang went to Daming Capital, which is very low-key and impossible to publicize, which also shows that. This time the negotiation may not be very smooth, the Ming court may not agree to the idea of unity, and will even directly ask the Qing State to send troops to attack Su Tiancheng, such a situation, Zilharang thinks it is acceptable, the loss of face is nothing, the key is how to attack, from which direction to attack.

Tan Tai and Jia Jihan collected a lot of information, which showed that the main forces of the Jiangning battalion were all concentrated in the area of Nanzhili, including Shandong and other places, Fuzhou, Xuanzhou and Gaizhou, and there were not many sergeants stationed, and Su Tiancheng's main energy, that is, after occupying the south, he advanced to the north and then unified the Central Plains.

There is a chance here, Huang Taiji ordered Dolgon to return to Yaozhou and Xuanzhou, in fact, he chose this side as the direction of the attack, as for the main army to meet the Jiangning battalion, it was the matter and task of the Ming Dynasty, and it had nothing to do with the Qing Dynasty, so that the Qing Kingdom could get the greatest benefit from it.

And such a deployment has another advantage, that is, the Ming Dynasty can mobilize the Liaodong border army to participate in the fight, no matter what, the army of nearly 300,000 is enough for Su Tiancheng to have a headache.

Su Tiancheng is facing the possibility of fighting on two fronts, even if the Jiangning battalion is extremely brave, but it is difficult to deal with such a situation.

As for the Great Qing Dynasty, the biggest benefit from this is that the Ming Dynasty and Su Tiancheng launched a desperate fight, both sides will be fatally injured, and the defense of Liaodong is empty, whether it is the victory of the Ming Dynasty, or the Great Qing Dynasty will unify the Central Plains and recuperate, it is completely possible to send troops to occupy the entire Liaodong, and even take the opportunity to start the conquest of the Great Jin Dynasty when Su Tiancheng is recuperating from his injuries.

This is all Huang Taiji's plan, it is the greatest benefit that Huang Taiji and the Great Qing Kingdom need to pursue, and it is also the purpose of Jierharang's visit to the capital of Daming this time.

Zilharang came to the capital of the Ming Dynasty and brought with him a large amount of treasures, through which he soon met Zhou Yanru, the first assistant of the Ming cabinet. The conversation after meeting Zhou Yanru was not very good, and Zilharang could see from Zhou Yanru's words and deeds that Zhou Yanru was not very interested in this plan, and he also had a distrustful attitude.

The difficulty of this, Zierharang is very clear, the reason why Huang Taiji asked him to come to the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the reason why he still asked him to adopt a groveling attitude, of course, in his bones is for the interests of the Qing Kingdom, so as long as Zhou Yanru is willing to meet, this is a victory.

Chen Xinjia listened very carefully, although he did not know whether the plan to join forces was possible, but Jilharang could feel the clear difference from Chen Xinjia's attitude, which greatly increased Jilharang's confidence.

After Jierharang came to the capital, all the actions were mastered by the imperial court, and Jierharang was able to meet Zhou Yanru and Chen Xinjia smoothly, in fact, it was also the emperor's arrangement, if there was no nod from the emperor, at such an extraordinary moment, Jierharang came to the capital of Daming with gold and silver, and there could not be many ways to go, after all, it involved the safety of life, and no one would attach too much importance to money.

In the Forbidden City, the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, Zhu Youzhen was listening carefully to the reports of Zhou Yanru and Chen Xinjia.

Zhou Yanru and Chen Xinjia's opinions are a little unanimous, and the contact with Jierharang, from the current situation, is still a top secret matter, it is impossible for the imperial court to discuss, and it is impossible for the cabinet to discuss, as for how the decision should be made later, Zhu Youzhen did not think about it carefully, and took it step by step.

Zhou Yanru's attitude is resolute, thinking that it is impossible to imagine the cooperation with the Houjin Tartars, not to mention that the civil and military ministers in the court will not allow it, even the world's scholars will not agree, after all, the Houjin Tartars are aliens, rebelled against the imperial court for so many years, established themselves as kings, and caused great harm to the Ming court and the common people.

Chen Xinjia's attitude is different, relatively pragmatic, Chen Xinjia did not immediately think that the union can be agreed, but think that this proposal is worth considering, in terms of form, the Houjin Tartars are not cooperating with the imperial court, but obeying the arrangements of the imperial court, and attacking Su Tiancheng, because the Houjin Tartars have surrendered to the imperial court, and the two sides have signed an agreement, but for some special reasons, the imperial court has not returned to the establishment of Jianzhou Wei for the time being, and has not had time to re-establish the Nuer Gandu Division.

Chen Xinjia's attitude was that the imperial court could ask the Houjin Tartars to attack Su Tiancheng in the form of dispatching troops, and as for the specific operation steps, it was something that needed to be discussed by the two sides.

After Chen Xinjia finished speaking, Zhou Yanru immediately objected, thinking that such an idea was too naïve, the intentions of Huang Taiji and Houjin Tatars were well known, after Houjin Tatars surrendered to the imperial court, many things were not done, no matter what the agreement was, putting Concubine Zhuang and Fulin in the capital as hostages, it was thought that everything was done, from this kind of attitude, cooperation is the same bed and different dreams, and there can be no good ending.

Chen Xinjia also refuted, thinking that the union is reasonable, he analyzed from the perspective of the Houjin Tartars, and thought that the Emperor Taiji of the Houjin must also feel the danger, when the court was worried about the external difficulties, the Huang Taiji did not think of attacking from Liaodong, but chose to cooperate and jointly deal with Su Tiancheng, such foresight and wisdom is not simple, in this case, the basis of the alliance between the two sides still exists, as for how to operate in the future, so that the Houjin Tartars will not take any advantage, That is an issue that needs to be addressed in the course of the negotiation process. Scholars and the common people hated the Houjin Tartars, but the Houjin Tartars surrendered to the imperial court, and the Houjin Tartars possessed the Manchurian Eight Banners and the Han Eight Banners, and even the Mengba Banner, that is, one of the armies that the imperial court could deploy.

Zhu Youzhen finally made a decision and agreed to negotiate, and let Chen Xinjia operate this matter.

Huang Taiji is worthy of being powerful, he guessed Zhu Youzhen's mind, Zhu Youzhen is not so stupid, knowing that the Dao Imperial Court wants to completely mobilize the Houjin army, it is impossible, but attacking Su Tiancheng from two directions can weaken Su Tiancheng's strength to the greatest extent, in addition, the Liaodong border army can also be properly deployed, since the Houjin Tartars chose to unite with the imperial court to deal with Su Tiancheng together, Liaodong should not be a place for the two sides to fight.

What Zhu Youzhen knew even more was that the Houjin Tartars, who had set up camp south of the Liao River, had been completely withdrawn, and this was the sincerity that was shown. (To be continued......)
