Two days later, Zhu Di suddenly summoned the Wala envoy and told him that the Ming Dynasty would send an envoy to Wala to investigate and verify whether the three kings of Wala deceived the Ming Dynasty and established the Great Khan without authorization.【】
Although Mahamu had already made some arrangements for "Tuo Tuo Bu Hua" before going to the Ming Dynasty, Da Hai'er of the Wala Zhiyuan was still a little frightened when he heard about it, and he hurriedly volunteered to lead the Ming envoys.
He rushed back to Wala, but was rejected by Zhu Di.
Zhu Di detained Da Hai'er and his party in the capital on the grounds that he would be wary of someone tipping him off so that the three kings of Wala could make preparations in advance, and would not allow them to leave. In fact, the real purpose was just to guard against anyone among them recognizing Xia Xun, although Xia Xun would be suspicious of him.
It's better to make some changes to your appearance to make sure nothing goes wrong.
Hai'er had to agree even if he didn't agree, but he thought that when the Ming envoy arrived in Wala, King Mahamu would still be able to get the news in time, so he pretended to be calm and settled down in the Huitong Hall peacefully.
Immediately afterwards, Zhao Zijin, the imperial envoy of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, was appointed as the imperial envoy and led the team to Oara.
The normal promotion of officials is based on seniority. Having served as a national envoy and being able to successfully complete the mission is a mark of distinction on the resume and is an important asset when competing with others for higher positions.
Zhao Zijin entered the Supervisory Yuan and chose to join Wu Youdao's faction. Now that Wu Youdao was ill and retired, Huang Zhen became the leader of this faction. Previously, Zhao Zijin received instructions from Huang Zhen, the imperial envoy of Youdu, and asked the emperor to strengthen the construction of grain reserves and water conservancy facilities.
, fired the first shot for Xia Xun to destroy the King of Han's troops, and this opportunity to go on an envoy was a reward given to him by Huang Zhen.
In the ten-mile long pavilion, Huang Zhen paid a farewell visit to Zhao Zijin.
Xia Xun was standing in the team of military attachés. His eyebrows were thicker, and his beard was an excellent prop to hide his true appearance.
With the skill of disguise he had learned, he was completely confident that he would completely transform himself into another person, making it impossible for anyone to recognize him. The problem was that such a skill of disguise could not last long.
It is very difficult to maintain that appearance every day for two or three months, and it is also easier to show off one's abilities, so it is better to cover up the appearance. Anyway, no one in Wala knows him, and few people who know him know him.
All the Wala envoys are now in the capital and are under strict control.
"Fu Guogong Yang Xu left Beijing two days ago" and his whereabouts are unknown. This is a lesson learned from the last attack in Hami. The emperor kept his whereabouts strictly confidential. Including the current envoy team, knowing that Xia Xia
The only ones with Xun status are Zhao Zijin and Xia Xun's two deputies: Xin Lei and Fei Hewei.
Huang Zhen was also one of the few officials who knew that Xia Xun was in the team. He did not even look at Xia Xun, but solemnly gave instructions to see Zhao Zijin off.
Huang Zhen was very happy, remembering that when he and Xia Xun went to Shandong to inspect and suppress the White Lotus Religion case, he was the envoy and Xia Xun was the deputy envoy, but the emperor told Xia Xun to be the main envoy, which made him feel very embarrassed as the envoy. Today, Zhao Zijin is just
He is exactly the same as he was back then. The only difference is that Xia Xun's officer is many times older than he was then, and Zhao Zijin, the imperial envoy, must be even more awkward than he was back then.
Huang Zhen was very happy when he thought of this.
Zhao Zijin took the farewell wine that Huang Zhen poured for him with both hands and thanked him repeatedly.
Huang Zhen smiled, gloating about his misfortune, with the corners of his mouth crooked and twitching.
Zhao Zijin gave him a deep look and said, "Master Huang, let me take a look at your face..."
"What?" Huang Zhen continued to laugh, with the corners of his mouth crooked and twitching.
Zhao Zijin said with concern: "My lord, the corners of your mouth are a little crooked and twitching. It's better to go to the doctor quickly. I have an uncle who had a stroke not long ago and is now paralyzed in bed unable to move. He had the same symptoms before...
"
Huang Zhen stopped laughing immediately

On the shore of Lake Balkhash, the waves are rolling and ospreys are flying in the sky.
The wild grass on the shore is long and undulating with the wind. At a glance, it looks like the waves of the lake.
Groups of cattle and sheep grazed leisurely and walked slowly on the prairie, like slowly moving clouds in the sky.
On the grassland, there are many felt tents sitting like stars. In one place where the felt tents are densely packed, there are eight pure white tents in the center, closely arranged together. On the outside of the eight white tents, there is a gray tent.
In the tent, three big men in leather robes were sitting quietly.
The carpet on the ground was a little dirty. There was no wind inside the tent, and there was a faint smell of sheep. However, these three Mongolian men had been accustomed to this smell since they were young, so they didn't notice any difference at all. They also had a smell about them.
It smells like mutton, even stronger.
The man sitting at the top was not tall, but had a stocky build. A thick beard covered most of his face, but the exposed cheekbones were as sharp as a knife. He glanced left and right with a stern gaze.
He said in a deep voice: "The envoys from the Ming Dynasty will arrive soon. They are coming to Wala specifically to investigate the matter of establishing the Great Khan in Wala."
A big man sitting on the left frowned and said: "Damn it, Daming knew it so soon?"
The big man on the right snorted coldly: "There are many people with ulterior motives among our Oara tribes. Some of them are interested in the Tatars, and some want to usurp power. How can this matter be kept absolutely secret?"
The big man in the room smiled slightly and said: "The Ming Dynasty came to our territory to investigate, how can they find out what happened? Some people dare to cause trouble secretly, but they may not dare to cooperate with the enemy face to face. The Ming Dynasty sent an envoy here, so loudly
, what can we find out? In my opinion, this is what the Emperor Mingting had to say, and he had to find a step for himself to get off. Let's build this step for him, that's it."
The two big men on the left and right nodded together: "Well, we will restrain the troops. At the same time, you should be tighter here and don't let him come into contact with people from other tribes, especially the people from Hashha."
"Um"
When the big man heard Hashiha's name, he couldn't help but narrowed his eyes slightly. His face showed disapproval of Hashiha, the strongest and most threatening opponent, and he was still quite afraid.
These three people are none other than the three kings of Wala, King Shunning Mahamu, King Xianyi Taiping, and King Anle Batu Polo.
Xianyi Wang Taiping, who was sitting on the left, said: "Mahamu, should we tear down the Babai tent first?"
The Babai tent is an eight-seat white felt tent built in imitation of the palace tent where Genghis Khan lived during his lifetime. It is called the Babai tent. It is the mourning hall for future generations to worship Genghis Khan. However, there can only be one Babai tent. The Mongolian royal family is the chief priest and receives guests from all parties.
Tribal chiefs came to worship the "King of Kings". Since the time of Kublai Khan, the founder of the Yuan Dynasty, the task of guarding the "Babaizhang" has been given to the Ordos tribe.
After the separation of Tatar and Oara, the Babai tent was set up in the Tatar tribe, which had a great khan. Since the Oara tribe did not have a great khan who was a descendant of Genghis Khan, there should not be a Babai tent. However, Mahamu believed that this was called
It's not bad to admire Genghis Khan, after all, he is the greatest hero in the hearts of all Mongolians.
Mahamu said: "There is no need to pay homage to the ancestors of the ancestors. What's the big deal? If we temporarily remove it, it will appear to be ulterior motives. I just want to hold on to Tuo Tuo Bu Hua and Agado Er Ji. He has no evidence and can do it."
What can I do?"
※※※※※※※
The eight-white tent is hung with five-color silk and prayer flags, fluttering gently in the breeze.
There was a sound like a lock coming from outside. It was miserable and whimpering, which matched the atmosphere quite well.
A man wearing an earth-yellow fat Mongolian leather robe with a right gusset, slanted lapel, high collar, long sleeves, edging and an unslit hem walked lazily into the tent, grabbed a bowl of milk wine from the altar table and drank it
He took a big mouthful and picked up a piece of cheese and threw it into his mouth. These were sacrifices to Genghis Khan. Genghis Khan was an eternal god in the hearts of Mongolians, but this Mongolian would actually behave in such a blasphemous manner?
Taking a closer look at his appearance, one suddenly realized that this guy was Wansongling.
Wan Songling turned around with his mouth clucking and was about to leave. Suddenly he remembered something, so he turned around again, titheed respectfully towards Genghis Khan's shrine, and said in his mouth: "I, well, what, ba,...
"Hey, coax." After reciting the six-character mantra, Wan Songling grabbed the hada and wiped his hands, then walked out calmly.
Gongsun Dafeng was sitting under a felt tent, puffing out his cheeks and playing the trumpet. Wan Songling walked over, kicked him and said, "Stop playing, this is a funeral song."
Gongsun Dafeng stopped playing and said with a smile: "Isn't it useful to pay tribute?"
Wan Songling sat down next to him and said angrily: "What the hell, people don't play this kind of music here. You should learn it hard. We have to act like gods now."
Gongsun Dafeng said: "I know how to play it a long time ago, I just don't like to hear it."
As he spoke, he sighed and said to Wan Songling: "Master, you are so sweaty. I usually have nothing to do. I chat with the shepherds here and ask about their affairs here. If you say there is something evil, I will fight for my life."
After Emperor Shun escaped from Yuan Dynasty, Tuogusi Tiemuer and his son were defeated miserably in Yuyuer, and were killed by Yesudier during their escape, none of the great Khans they set up had a good death..."
Wan Songling was furious: "Did you damn curse me?"
Gongsun Dafeng said quickly: "No, no, no, didn't I remind the master?"
Wan Songling sighed and said: "I thought that this time there was really smoke coming out of the ancestral grave, and I became the emperor of the grassland for no reason. Who knows... There are three kings who decide everything. I am just a decoration. I thought I would be a decoration."
That’s fine, at least I’ll have good clothes and good food. Who would have thought that when the Ming Dynasty sent an imperial envoy, I would turn from a profuse sweat to a divine man, and the cat would be here all day long..."
At this moment, a warrior with a sword rushed in. When he saw Wansongling, he quickly touched his chest and saluted, saying: "Great Khan, Samur Hatun and Huoaha Tun, you are here."
"Oh? Princess Samur and Princess Huo'a are here?"
Wan Songling and Gongsun Dafeng looked at each other, stood up quickly, patted the dust on their buttocks, and said solemnly: "Please"
