Chapter 547 - Drawing Salary from the Bottom of the Cauldron (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
***
The former Jubaomen has been officially renamed Zhonghua Gate by King Qin.
Originally, according to the practice of previous dynasties, all the city gates were always renamed after the capital was set to announce the new atmosphere of the new dynasty.
However, King Qin doesn't seem to care much about this. He only symbolically changed the Jubao Gate to the Zhonghua Gate.
Manchu Inner Hongwen Yuan University Shi Hesheri. Xifu led a delegation of more than 200 people, escorted by the Qin army, into the Zhonghua Gate, and the prosperous scene in his face made him feel as if the temperature had suddenly risen a lot.
The flow of people, the ornate and neat gatehouse, the dazzling array of goods, and the voices of people like a wave, all seem to be vibrant;
The confident and optimistic mental outlook of the people of Yanjing is similar to the cautious and bowed appearance of the people of Yanjing.
Yanjing is full of ragged people, unkempt beggars, and people who sell their sons and daughters can be seen everywhere.
And these phenomena are not visible at all in Jinling City, Xifu scanned around, searched all over the streets, and really couldn't find a beggar, this alone made him feel emotional.
Along the way, Xifu really heard a lot of new things about the Qin State, for example, he heard that Qin Mu was asking the people to discuss a pension policy together, it is said that ordinary people only need to pay a little money every month, and after the age of fifty-five, they can receive a considerable pension every month.
Xifu is also a person who reads poetry and books, this kind of thing is unprecedented, Qin Mu actually let all the people participate in the discussion.
And from what he saw and heard along the way, he found that ordinary people of Qin actually believed in this matter, and very few people suspected that it was the Qin court cheating money.
It can be seen from this that Qin Mu's prestige among the people of Qin State is as high as it is. ,
In Xifu's opinion, this is obviously a small trick of Qin Mu's envoy, who cheats money from the pockets of ordinary people in disguise, but almost no one in Qin State doubts Qin Mu's motives. This alone is enough to show the aspirations of the people.
"Hey, you see, Jiannu, it's Jiannu"
There was a sudden exclamation from inside the Zhonghua Gate, and a stone stirred up a thousand waves, which made the street suddenly boil like a pot, and countless people rushed over when they heard it.
"Really, it's Jiannu, what's going on. How dare this Jiannu come to the capital? ”
"Whatever the hell is going on, shoot them!"
"Kill them!"
"Don't get excited, don't get excited, don't you see that these Jiannu are being held by our Great Qin soldiers?"
"I care about him so much, Jiannu killed my father, and I don't share the sky with them."
"Yes, yes, shoot them!"
The anger of the people of Jinling City was ignited in an instant, and some people couldn't find anything else in a hurry. He smashed out the silver in his hand;
Xifu and the others were quickly smashed with blue noses and swollen faces, and there were not a few people who fell off their horses among the two hundred people, and some were directly smashed unconscious, and the scene was chaotic for a while.
The soldiers of the Qin army who were in charge of escorting did not expect such a scene to appear as soon as they entered the city. No one reacted at the first time.
It wasn't until Xifu and his gang were smashed and embarrassed that the escorted soldiers woke up.
"Folks, stop. Stop, the two countries will fight each other, and they will not be killed. How can we do such a thing? Folks, stop it! ”
Cheng Fei, the general manager of Qian, who was sent by Li Chen to escort the Manchu mission, hurriedly shouted, but his voice was drowned in the countless crusades, and no one heard it at all, and he did not dare to order the use of force, which can be described as anxious.
Fortunately, the officials of Jiangshou County and the soldiers of the Wucheng Military Division arrived in time, not afraid of the county officials, they were afraid of the current management, the Qin army was strictly disciplined and had always been close to the people, and the people were not afraid of the Qin army soldiers, but they were still a little afraid of the officials in the city;
Although the officials did not greet the people directly, the ordinary people were allergic to the sound of the whip and retreated, and the scene was brought under control.
"Lord Hesheri, you're fine." Cheng Fei broke out in a sweat and ran to Hesheri. Shifma asked, but his tone was clearly tinged with schadenfreude.
Xi Fu was angry, pointed to the bruise on his face and asked, "What do you say?" Is there something wrong? ”
"Phew! Zhongqi is so sufficient, that is, there is nothing to do, this little bruise is a fart, Lao Tzu usually trains for three days and suffers once at both ends, and it doesn't hurt if he takes some medicine for half a day. "It's good that Xifu doesn't ask, this question, Cheng Fei is more and more inappropriate, stealing fun.
"You" Xifu was very angry, but suddenly remembered the task this time, and hurriedly closed up.
As the so-called people are under the eaves, they have to bow their heads, the Manchu Qing is no longer the original Manchu Qing, Xifu can only consider himself unlucky. Cheng Fei took him to the post management and handed him over to the officials of Honglu Temple to receive him, and it was complete.
The next day, when Xifu was brought to the temple, he glanced at Qin Mu from a distance, and this glance made him unforgettable.
Qin Mu's first impression of him was very special, he looked very young at first glance, but he inexplicably felt that he was very mature, and that kind of temperament was as calm as a person in his thirties and forties, which made you instantly have to overturn your initial judgment of his age.
This kind of perception makes Qin Mu like a maze, making people unable to see clearly.
What surprised him even more was that Qin Mu was actually equipped with a sword in the palace, a phenomenon that may only exist in the pre-Qin period, actually appeared on Qin Mu.
And some of the ministers in the palace were actually sitting, which was also unexpected by him.
Xifu came with a request, he put his posture very low, and as soon as he entered the hall, he bowed and worshipped: "Foreign minister Qing domestic Hongwen Academy University Shi Hesheri. Xifu knocks on the King of Qin, long live the King of Qin, long live, long live! ”
The ministers of the Qin State in the palace looked at him together, and when they saw that the Manchu envoys were so humble, some of them showed satisfied smiles, some of them showed despicable looks, and people like Sima An and others were thoughtful.
Qin Mu's face did not change, and he was still calm.
To say that it is difficult to hear, Xifu is to be courteous and courteous, either treacherous or thief, if you use the words of a young man of literature and art, it is to be courteous to others, and there must be something to ask for. So no matter how humble Hebish is, there is nothing to be complacent.
After Xifu bowed three times and knocked nine times, he couldn't hear Qin Mu say anything, he couldn't help but didn't raise his head to look, and after a while, he heard a voice from the hall: "Flat." ”
"King Xie Qin." Heft prostrated his head again before he got up.
"Xifu, Dolgon asked you to come to Great Qin, why did you come to Daqin?" Qin Mu asked unhurriedly.
"Qi Qi King Qin, the foreign ministers were sent by my lord to come to meet the King of Qin, in the hope that the two countries will strike the army and live in harmony, this is a gift specially prepared by my lord, please look at the King of Qin" Xifu said this, bowed down, and held the gift list in his hand high above his head.
In the hall, the ministers of the Qin State let out a low sneer, obviously disapproving of the Manchu Qing's gift request for peace.
Xifu was worried about being interrupted, so he hurriedly continued: "King Qin, in order to express the will of the two countries to live in harmony and let the people of the two countries suffer less from the flames of war, the Great Qing Dynasty is willing to send the princess to come to make peace, and at the same time, my lord is willing to go to the emperor's name, take the Great Qin as the suzerain, pay tribute every year, and come to the court every year." ”
After Xifu finished speaking, he quietly glanced at the ministers of the Qin State in the palace, and he found that there was no discussion as he expected.
The ministers of the Qin State in the hall were unmoved, and looked at him with cold eyes one by one, as if they were watching a play.
The Qing Dynasty was both a minister and a relative, and he couldn't let the monarchs and ministers of the Qin State have the slightest fluctuation, and such a scene made Xifu's heart sink straight down.
The eunuch in the palace came down and picked up the gift slip presented by Xifu, Qin Mu didn't even look at it, and said in an unusually calm tone: "Xifu, have you finished what you want to say?" ”
Xifu's heart was full of powerlessness, Qin Mu was very young, but that concentration and majesty were no worse than Dolgon, and the sword on his body seemed to be unsheathed at any time, piercing people's hearts.
And the feeling on his body that makes it difficult for you to figure out his true thoughts, he is like being hidden in the clouds, and the invisible pressure makes Xifu have to bow down again and say: "If the King of Qin thinks that my sincerity in the Qing Dynasty is not enough, my lord is willing to cede the land of Huaibei to the King of Qin." ”
Qin Mu pressed the hilt of the sword with his right hand, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "Xifu, you go back and tell Dorgon, his heart is understood by this king, the land of Huaibei, and even inside and outside the Great Wall, there is no need for him to send it, these territories are not his, and he is not qualified to send them, this king will wave his master to get it!" ”
Xifu didn't have a taste in his heart, as the regent expected, these pieces didn't make Qin Mu feel the slightest emotion at all, the land of Huaibei may not be worth mentioning at all in his eyes, what he wants is the whole world.
Xifu knelt down again and said loudly: "King Qin, my lord really wants to be friends with Great Qin and be a friend for generations. As long as the two countries have a good relationship between Qin and Jin, our lord is willing to go to the emperor's name, accept the canonization of Great Qin, and come to Jinling to serve the king of Qin, and at the same time, our state is willing to withdraw from the border and hand over all the land within the Great Wall to Great Qin, in order to show the sincerity of our state's submission. ”
Airplanes! Xifu's words made Yihua in the palace in an uproar, and for a while the buzzing discussions were endless, taking the emperor as a hostage and withdrawing from the Great Wall, which no one expected, including Qin Mu, couldn't help but be stunned.
