Thinking of this, Zheng Zhilong naturally had some concerns in his heart, and said humbly: "The Queen Mother is really too praised. I am actually just a businessman. It just happened that under the circumstances, God showed mercy and my brothers recognized me, and I became what I am today.
Status. To be honest with the Queen Mother, I live my life in trepidation now, fearing that some trouble will come to my door and I will let down the expectations of my brothers."
The meaning of his words and his willingness to refuse were obvious. After hearing this, Bumbutai's face naturally became a little ugly.
For Zheng Zhilong, although he didn't want to get involved, he also didn't want to offend this woman.
There is a saying that goes well, don't offend anyone, women are the most petty.
Therefore, Zheng Zhilong immediately changed the topic and continued: "The Queen Mother knows that I secretly formed an alliance with the Qing Dynasty and the Japanese country. Why? It was because I was unsatisfactory in the Ming Dynasty and was worried about the Ming Dynasty emperor. If I was not careful, I even lost my life.
People were eaten with their skins on. The queen mother didn't know that the emperor loves to raid homes now, and I happen to have very little wealth. To be honest, my life is far from the glory it seems."
The implication is that I have too much time to take care of myself, so please stop causing trouble to me. I won’t be able to trouble you.
But who would have thought that after hearing this, Bumbutai immediately said to him: "It's not right. Before the Ming Dynasty was destroyed, you were in charge of the general situation of the world. My son does not need to worry about it. After the Ming Dynasty is destroyed, you don't have to worry about it."
, I would like to announce your identity as my son’s mentor and give my son some pointers, what do you think?”
Now that her son is still young, there is no question of whether he is pro-government or not. It will take at least ten years.
In these years, the Qing Empire's biggest enemy was the Ming Dynasty, and it also needed talented people like Dorgon to be in power to deal with the pressure of the Ming Dynasty.
Bumbutai believed that with the strength of the Qing Empire, the allies of Japan and Zheng Zhilong, and even the participation of the Tsarist Empire, even if the Ming Dynasty was stronger than before, it would be impossible to withstand such a huge attack.
Within ten years, the Ming Kingdom would definitely be destroyed. By that time, her son would be almost an adult and would just go out to pick peaches.
However, Bumbutai also knew that it was definitely not an easy task to pick this big peach.
She was already trying every possible means to plan for his son, letting the people of the Qing Dynasty know that the real emperor of the Qing Dynasty was her son Fulin, and that Dorgon was just the regent.
Within the Qing Dynasty, it goes without saying that she has been paying attention to attracting talents and forces. However, if this is just the case, she is still worried that she does not have enough strength.
After Zheng Zhilong's arrival, she learned about Zheng Zhilong's affairs, and felt that this was an excellent opportunity for her son to win over an external force for help.
This Zheng Zhilong had no interest relationship with the Qing Dynasty, especially he had no special friendship with Dorgon. Instead, he knew Daishan first.
Moreover, this Zheng Zhilong had a powerful navy and would occupy several southern provinces of the Ming Dynasty in the future. He had absolutely strong financial resources. Even after the Qing Dynasty carved up the Ming Dynasty, it still needed to form an alliance with Zheng Zhilong to deal with the most powerful Japanese country.
In this way, Zheng Zhilong's influence on the Qing Dynasty will be greater.
Another one, if Zheng Zhilong can be won over and Zheng Zhilong really stands on her side, to be honest, Bumbutai really hopes that Zheng Zhilong can teach her son. With Zheng Zhilong's all-round skills, he can deal with pirates and eventually become
The Pirate King is also a guest of the Japanese Kingdom. He is capable of handling all aspects of his affairs. She especially hopes that her son can also have it!
But now, this Zheng Zhilong seems unwilling to do what she wants!
This actually inspired Bumbutai's fighting spirit. If she wants to do something, she must do it!
In the harem, she was not the most favored, nor was she the oldest. But in the end, she had the final say in the Qing harem!
Also, her son must be the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Even if the damn Huang Taiji dares to pass the throne to Dorgon, she can win her love with a knife. Now Fulin is the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
She has already taken a liking to this Zheng Zhilong, who can help her son take charge of the government in the future, so she must do it.
No matter who comes to stop it, it’s useless, I, Bumu Butai, said so!
With this thought in his mind, Bumbutai was full of fighting spirit and added to Zheng Zhilong: "I can tell you the truth, Prince Heshuoli and Prince Heshuo Zheng absolutely support my son's pro-government, and Prince Heshuosu
He is the son of the late emperor, and he certainly does not want to see the regent become emperor. He has expressed his opposition before. Only the remaining prince, He Shuoyu, supports the regent. In terms of strength, my son still has the upper hand."
When she said this, she couldn't help but feel a little grateful to the Ming Dynasty. Originally, among Dorgon's half-brothers, there was also Azig, the prince of Heshuoying, who was killed by the Ming Dynasty. This gave her an extra
chances of winning.
At this time, Bumbutai clearly told Zheng Zhilong: Three against two, the advantage is mine, you don't have to worry too much.
Zheng Zhilong is not a three-year-old child, so how can she change her mind just by saying this.
Therefore, after listening to Bumbutai's words, he smiled bitterly and said: "To be honest with the Queen Mother, there is another reason why I secretly formed an alliance. That is, my son is a cheat. Once he was fooled by the Ming Emperor, he
You tortured me so hard. You see, I can’t even teach my own son well..."
Although I didn't finish what I said next, the meaning is very clear: I can't teach my own son well, so I don't need to teach your son.
When Zheng Zhilong said this, he saw Bumu Butai's face turn ugly, so he hurriedly added: "The Emperor of the Qing Dynasty is very powerful. In fact, it doesn't matter whether he has my help or not. There will definitely be no problem in ruling personally in the future.
It would be better if nothing happens in the future. If something happens in the future, the Queen Mother will ask someone to give instructions, and I, Zheng Zhilong, will definitely use the power of dogs and horses, how about that?"
This sounds nice, but in fact it means nothing is promised.
Bumbutai is a master of intrigues, how could he not hear it?
Finding various excuses is just dodge! He actually uses his son as a shield. Could it be that Fulin really has to be taught by him? What I am interested in is the force you represent, and you don’t know it yourself? Are you pretending to be confused?
Bumubutai thought so in her heart, her fighting spirit became even higher, and she didn't believe that Zheng Zhilong could escape from her grasp!
But on the surface, she had no choice but to look like this. She seemed to be convinced by Zheng Zhilong. She immediately raised her wine glass and said to Zheng Zhilong: "In that case, I will trust you, sir, and do it first as a courtesy!"
After saying that, Bumbutai drank it all in one gulp, and then showed the bottom of the cup to Zheng Zhilong.
When Zheng Zhilong saw this, he felt relieved, finally getting rid of this woman's entanglement, so he quickly raised his glass and drank it all in one gulp. He also lit up the bottom of the glass to indicate that he had finished it.
Then, he was ready to leave. It would be better to stay in this place less.
However, before Zheng Zhilong could speak, Bumu Butai stood up, took the wine bottle from the palace maid, then walked to Zheng Zhilong and poured him wine himself.
When Zheng Zhilong saw it, he couldn't help but feel helpless.
The Queen Mother poured the wine herself, he couldn't refuse, right?
Fortunately, he was a businessman, so it was common for him to hang out at the wine table. He had a good drinking capacity, so he didn't miss this glass of wine.
Therefore, Zheng Zhilong did not stop him and allowed Bumbutai to fill the wine glass again.
Then, Bumbutai filled up his wine glass again, put down the wine bottle, picked up the wine glass and said to Zheng Zhilong: "My words to you just now were a bit rude. I'm really sorry, so I respect you, sir."
One cup, sir, please don’t take it to heart.”
After she finished speaking, she drank it all in one gulp and looked at Zheng Zhilong after shining the bottom of the glass.
When Zheng Zhilong saw her, he couldn't help it. This woman was a good talker, and he had to drink what she said, so he got rid of it.
After I finished speaking, I let it go, thinking that it would be okay now, right?
Unexpectedly, Bumbutai came over to pour him wine again.
"..." Zheng Zhilong was speechless. What does this mean?
To be honest, Zheng Zhilong wouldn't believe it if he got him drunk. Could this woman's drinking capacity be stronger than the man he killed from the wine shop?
This woman's face is already as red as a monkey's butt. How many more drinks can she have?
If you want to challenge your drinking capacity, it’s really a big mistake!
Thinking of this, Zheng Zhilong was suddenly startled and felt bad.
If I get the Empress Dowager Jianlu drunk, even if Jianlu is a barbarian and relatively open-minded, it would be bad to spread the news, right?
Thinking like this, he made a decisive decision: he couldn't drink anymore and had to leave quickly!
So Zheng Zhilong quickly put his hand on the wine glass and said to Bumubutai: "Your Majesty, my drinking capacity has reached its limit and I can't drink any more!"
When Bumbutai saw it, his face sank, he came closer to Zheng Zhilong, looked into his eyes and asked: "Are you so worthless for a grown man? Is it possible that you are afraid that I, a woman, will drink you down?"
Ordinary people, if they hear such words, they will definitely risk their lives. How can they be despised by a woman like this!
However, Zheng Zhilong is not an ordinary person. For him, he needs to be as thick-skinned as possible, otherwise, it is impossible to get out.
Therefore, he immediately took over Bumbutai's words and said: "The Queen Mother is wise, I really can't drink anymore!"
While talking, Zheng Zhilong felt a little strange. Why did the Queen Mother Jianlu seem to have become more beautiful?
He had seen all the women he had seen, whether they were black or white. From his perspective, the Empress Dowager Jianlu was pretty good-looking, but why did she suddenly seem to become more beautiful?
Being so close, it smells good, and the skin seems to be very smooth...
Thinking of this involuntarily, Zheng Zhilong was suddenly startled. No, he couldn't be like this. Was he fooled?
With this thought in mind, when I looked at Bumbutai again, I found that Bumbutai seemed to have two pairs of eyes and two heads.
