Suddenly, an idea flashed in Zhu Ling's mind. Isn't this the fat in front of him?
According to Li Zicheng's current mentality of wanting to negotiate peace, if he asks for more money, he will definitely not refuse. Even if there is a lot of anger in his heart, he can only bite his teeth and swallow it. A good decision-maker, for Many things are bearable in the overall situation, let alone this?
The next morning.
Li Yan was called up early and said that he wanted to discuss the matter of peace as soon as possible. Even though he was a little reluctant, for the sake of the national plan, he could only endure the discomfort in his heart and go immediately.
The person who received him was Wang Guoxing. Li Yan knew that he was the leader of the Jinyiwei, so his attitude towards him was not very good. After all, in the eyes of the people, the Jinyiwei were basically unpopular. He did not see them arresting corrupt officials. In the scene, you can often see ordinary people arrested on charges of rebellion.
"You Jin Yiwei are very powerful." This sentence was actually a question. Li Yan wanted to ridicule Jin Yiwei, but considering that he came here to discuss peace, it would be out of character.
"fine."
Wang Guoxing did not say much. As the commander of His Majesty's personal bodyguards, he was not allowed to communicate too much with envoys from other countries.
"But sometimes, Jinyiwei will only make people live in dire straits and will not make people's lives better." Li Yan continued after hearing Wang Guoxing's indifferent answer.
Hearing this, Wang Guoxing just chuckled and did not answer. He could tell that Li Yan only said this to anger him, and once he angered himself and did something unfavorable to him, he would negotiate for peace. Suppressing Ming's demands. Such trivial skills are really ridiculous.
Li Yan, who was in the car, couldn't help but feel confused and dissatisfied with Chongzhen's approach of negotiating peace early. He had read the reply yesterday. King Shun's intention was clear and he could agree to the request as long as it was not too excessive. Now Jiannu gradually Approaching, the army has begun to gather. They need to send troops as soon as possible, and the prerequisite for sending troops is to stabilize the rear.
They never wanted to be stabbed by the Ming army behind them during a fierce battle with Jiannu.
When he heard that Chongzhen wanted Beizhili, the Ming court's intention had already been guessed by Niu Jinxing, Song Xiance and others. It was just for Shuntian Prefecture and Shanhaiguan. Therefore, Li Zicheng thought of giving only A part of the Ming Dynasty sent troops from Northern Zhili to help Shuntian Prefecture and Shanhaiguan.
And even if they lose part of their land, it will still be beneficial to them. The Beizhili people are in direct contact with the Jiannu, so the Ming army can relieve some of the pressure on them, so why not?
Finally arriving at Prince Lu's Mansion, Wang Guoxing led Li Yan in. At this time, Zhu Ling and Wang Jiayan were also waiting for his arrival in the main hall. It could be seen from the expressions on their faces that they were very interested in this. The hope of a second peace negotiation was very high, so negotiations had to start early in the morning.
"Li Yan, the envoy of Dashun, met with the Emperor of Ming Dynasty!"
"Li Yan, I heard that you have received a reply. Therefore, I would like to know whether your king agrees or disagrees with Ming's request?"
Hearing this, Li Yan immediately held up his hands and said: "Our Lord Dashun believes that if both parties can benefit, so what if we lose a place? For the overall situation of our Han people, a mere Beizhili is nothing. But if The soldiers would be a little disappointed if they gave away all the Northern Zhili, so our Lord Dashun thought that only half of the Northern Zhili should be given."
Hearing Li Yan's words, Zhu Ling also knew that he was expecting it. In the past few days, he had been constantly collecting information about slave creation. He spent thousands of taels just selling the information, so naturally he got a lot of useful information.
information.
This time, Jiannu no longer attacked Shanhaiguan, but concentrated most of his troops in the Miyun and Jizhen areas in the north. The intruders were also constantly gathering large numbers of troops and moving closer to the north. Looking at this posture, it may be that soon
There will be a big war between them, and if the intruders have not negotiated peace with the Ming army, will they really dare to fight Jiannu?
Aren't you afraid of a sudden attack from behind by the Ming army?
He knew that Li Zicheng was a person who looked at the overall situation and would not give up the entire country for one Beizhili.
"Half of Northern Zhili?" After hearing this, Zhu Dadian was a little dissatisfied. He had always planned to take over the entire Northern Zhili, but now the intruder suddenly changed his mind, which immediately made him a little dissatisfied.
"Is this your attitude in negotiating peace? Beizhili was originally our country of the Ming Dynasty. Now that it has been captured by you, it is normal for us to come back. You only gave half of it, are you sending us away?"
Seeing that Zhu Dadian was so dissatisfied, Li Yan was also a little angry. He felt a little unwilling to give the Ming Dynasty half a Northern Zhili, let alone a Northern Zhili! Now even Dashun is making such concessions, but they are still taking steps.
Come on, do you really think Dashun is a soft persimmon?
"Governor Zhu, please don't forget! Countless soldiers from our Dashun killed Beizhili with their lives, not you who gave it to us!" Li Yan immediately angrily yelled. The officials of the Ming court were a little too arrogant.
!
"Okay! Then we'll fight back! There's no need to negotiate a peace this time. You intruders will just wait and see if we, the Ming Dynasty, can fight back!"
The two men's heated remarks made Zhu Ling and several others feel a sense of pain. When the intruders took over the city one after another before, they also mocked Ming Ting as a waste. But now, it was Ming who threatened him in turn.
They are.
Although Li Yan was a little excited when he saw Zhu Dadian like this, he could only endure it for the sake of the overall situation.
"We in Dashun are very sincere and are now willing to donate half of Beizhili. I hope you can feel it." Li Yan said to Zhu Ling in a deep voice again.
Looking closely at Li Yan, Zhu Ling knew that although he couldn't help but scold Zhu Dadian just now, he still wanted to negotiate a peace. It seemed that the idea in his heart had to be expressed as soon as possible.
"Li Yan, I can negotiate peace with Dashun on behalf of Ming Dynasty, but you must also know that we were surrounded in the capital before and were forced to negotiate peace with you and gave you money. But now you are forced to negotiate peace, so I also
I don’t think it’s too much to hope for money.”
After hearing Zhu Ling's words, Li Yan finally understood why they called him over so early in the morning. It turned out that they wanted to continue blackmailing him!
You’ve already given half of Beizhili, and you still want to ask for money? Isn’t it a bit shameful?
"Your Majesty the Emperor, if the peace had not been negotiated at that time, the capital would have been captured by our Dashun. It can be said that if it had not been for the Dashun, I am afraid that you, the Emperor, would have been captured alive."
Upon hearing Li Yan's rebellious words, Wang Jiayan, Shi Kefa and Zhu Dadian immediately scolded him.
