"Slave, I thank the Emperor for your grace. I am willing to do anything for the Emperor..."

Looking at Bumu Butai who was kneeling on his knees, Wu Zongrui's eyes were a little complicated. The woman kneeling in front of him was famous in history. She successively assisted Emperor Shunzhi Fulin and Emperor Kangxi Xuan Ye, laying the foundation for the prosperous age of Kangxi and Qianlong in the Qing Dynasty. Having laid the foundation, Bumbutai is not as beautiful as described in history, but her temperament is indeed good.

Wu Zongrui never thought about what happened with Bumbutai. He thought about the Mongolian tribe.

The army led by Liu Ning has already set off, planning to enter the Mongolian grassland from the Yansui area.

The route to the Mongolian tribes has been clearly understood by the Denglai New Army through mutual trade, including the Guli River, Wudi River and other places where the Beishan Jurchens are located. The Denglai New Army scouts dressed as merchants , in every tribe in Mongolia, if one person can't remember it clearly, two people will do it, and if it doesn't work once, it will be done twice or three times until the accurate map and route drawings are drawn.

Therefore, when Liu Ning went to the Horqin tribe, he would not take the wrong path.

Wu Zongrui no longer wanted to continue large-scale killings unless he had to. In every fighting, the Wu court would ultimately suffer losses. Some wars that must be fought do not require excessive cost calculations, but those wars that can be fought or not fought, You must calculate the cost.

"Bumbutai, get up, I really need you to do something."

Looking at Bumbutai who stood up slowly, and looking at Bumbutai's pale cheeks, Wu Zongrui spoke calmly.

"The Qing Dynasty has been wiped out. The vanguard of Denglai's new army has arrived in Nurgandusi and will soon cross the river to Sakhalin Island. I heard that the Tsarist Russian army was in Sakhalin Island. The people around Harlem Island are plundering and doing random things. Sakhalin Island is our territory of Da Wu, and the people living there are the subjects of our Da Wu Dynasty. The Tsarist Russian army dares to cause trouble on our territory of Da Wu, and it will naturally have to pay. cost."

Bumubutai looked at Wu Zongrui and spoke calmly.

"I understand what the emperor means. There is no hope for the Qing Dynasty."

Wu Zongrui nodded.

"Bumbutai, you are very smart. The Qing Dynasty has been destroyed. What should the Mongolian tribes do? After Lin Dan died of illness, the Mongolian tribes actually attached themselves to Houjin, which was Jianzhou Jurchen. There was a special Mongolian Eight Banners in the Eight Banners Army. , they fought quite bravely, I don’t want to continue to kill, Bumbutai, what do you think I should do, what should the court do..."

As soon as Wu Zongrui finished speaking, Bumu Butai raised his head.

"This servant understands what the emperor means."

Wu Zongrui frowned slightly and looked at Bumu Butai.

"Do you really understand? Then tell the truth and give the court and me some advice."

Bumubutai saw Wu Zongrui's frowning expression, but she didn't feel nervous.

"Your Majesty, this slave can make the Mongolian tribes surrender to the Wu court and accept the imperial edict..."

Wu Zongrui smiled, and his smile was meaningful.

"Bumbutai, I understand what you mean, but you don't understand what I mean. Mongolia is part of the Wu Dynasty, and the people of Mongolia are the subjects of the Wu Dynasty. The court not only ennobles the dignitaries of the Mongolian tribes, but also Officials will be dispatched to Mongolia, and in the future the imperial court will build cities in Mongolia. These cities will be responsible for administering the Mongolian people. Of course, these cities will also do many things for the Mongolian people, such as teaching Mongolian children to read, participating in imperial examinations, and entering and leaving the country. The process of becoming an official in the court may take a certain amount of time, but the Mongolian tribes must obey the management of the court, rather than being governed by themselves..."

Bumbutai's face suddenly turned pale and he opened his mouth.

Before Bumubutai could speak, Wu Zongrui spoke again.

"Bumbutai, the Yuan Emperor's jade seal is in your hands. It should have been given to you by your aunt, Queen Xiaoduanwen. This jade seal is jealous of all the grassland tribes. Whoever controls this jade seal will belong to the Mongolian grassland tribes.

Boss, when this jade seal was in Lin Dan's hands, Huang Taiji personally went to the Mongolian tribe, completely defeated Lin Dan, obtained this jade seal, and nominally controlled the Mongolian tribe. Do you know why I didn't ask you to hand over this jade seal, because I didn't

It is believed that one jade seal can actually control the entire Mongolian grassland."

"To truly surrender the Mongolian grasslands, we need to allow all Mongolian people to live a good life, let them have enough food and clothing, and allow them to live peacefully instead of relying on killing. As far as I know, no matter which Mongolian tribe they are

, no one can do this, including the Horqin tribe."

"The Mongolian tribes must recognize that they are people of the Wu Dynasty, and they are the subjects of the Wu Dynasty. Without this understanding, anything else will have no effect. Today, some Mongolian tribes still miss the Yuan Dynasty, hundreds of years ago.

Years later, they are still unwilling to admit reality and are still dreaming of ruling the world."

"Of course, if there are Mongolian tribes that are unwilling to surrender, then Denglai's new army will definitely attack and beat them into submission."

"Bumbutai, to tell you the truth, I have ordered Liu Ning, deputy chief officer of the Denglai New Army, to lead fifty thousand soldiers of the Denglai New Army into the Mongolian grasslands..."

Bumbutai's body shook a little, and he looked at Wu Zongrui and spoke.

"Your Majesty, if your guess is correct, the first target of Denglai's new army will be the Horqin tribe."

Wu Zongrui nodded and did not speak.

Bumbutai knelt down again. She knew the strength of the Denglai New Army. Not to mention the Horqin tribe, even if the grassland tribes united, they were no match for the Denglai New Army. The powerful firearms of the Denglai New Army could kill people.

Not a single piece of grassland tribe remains.

"I beg the emperor to let the Horqin tribe go. I will definitely make the Horqin tribe surrender to the emperor and the Wu court. The Horqin tribe will definitely do what the emperor asks..."

Wu Zongrui stepped forward again, bowed and helped Bumu Butai, who was kneeling on the ground.

Bumbutai's body was still trembling slightly.

"Bumbutai, you don't need to be nervous. Without my order, Liu Ning will not launch an attack on the Horqin tribe. I know that in this battle of Liaodong, the Mongolian tribes suffered heavy losses. The demise of the Eight Banners of Meng will have a great impact on the future."

All Mongolian tribes have been affected, so I don’t want to restart the war on the prairie..."

Bumu Butai looked at Wu Zongrui and mustered up the courage to speak.

"Your Majesty, I am willing to persuade the leader of the Horqin tribe to surrender to the emperor and the Wu court. I have a niece who is the daughter of Dorobele of the Horqin tribe. She is gentle and virtuous, and is willing to serve the emperor..."

Wu Zongrui was stunned for a moment, and a wry smile appeared on his face.

Whether it was the Hou Jin Dynasty or the Mongolian tribes, they were much bolder than the Han people in marrying women. For example, Huang Taiji married Bumbutai and her aunt, also married Hailanzhu, and later married Lin Danhan

This method almost no longer exists in the court where the Han people are in power and pay attention to etiquette.

Wu Zongrui believed that if possible, Bumbutai would even be willing to serve him, the emperor of the great Wu court.

The Manchus and Mongolians of the Later Jin Dynasty were generous in nature and did not particularly care about these aspects. On the contrary, they would consider it a great honor. For example, when Huang Taiji married the widow of Lin Dan Khan, many Mongolian tribes were reassured and admired.

After all, both the Manchus and the Mongols of the Later Jin Dynasty believed that brave men were born to conquer women.

Wu Zongrui instinctively wanted to refuse. He looked down upon relying on such nepotism to control the Mongolian tribes.

Seeing Bumbutai's expectant eyes again, Wu Zongrui suddenly became a little sober. The era he lived in was far from hundreds of years later. The Wu court had very little influence on the Mongolian tribes. If they refused to marry, the Mongolian tribes would

They will definitely be frightened and unable to sincerely submit. In this way, many of the court's strategies cannot be promoted among the Mongolian tribes.

To truly control the Mongolian tribes, we must focus on the children of the powerful Mongolian tribes. Wu Zongrui has long had a way to gather the children of the powerful Mongolian tribes to the capital to participate in school studies, so that they can learn Chinese culture and identify with the Chinese culture.

, at the same time, let them participate in the imperial examination and enter the court as officials. After they truly become members of the court, they will be sent to the grassland tribes as officials. At the same time, the Han people will gradually be sent to the Mongolian grasslands as officials. This will not take long.

At that time, the Mongolian grassland was truly controlled by the imperial court.

"Bumbutai, I'll think about what you said, but time is a little tight. You'd better find a way to make the leader of the Horqin tribe surrender to the court..."

Before Wu Zongrui finished speaking, Bumbutai spoke a little stubbornly.

"As long as the emperor agrees to my slave's request, I promise to make the Horqin tribe surrender and the other tribes in the grassland to surrender. Even if there are tribes who are unwilling to surrender, they are very few. I beg you to face the contempt of all the tribes in the grassland..."

Wu Zongrui finally nodded.

"Okay, as you said, you can stay in the capital for the time being. I have a lot of things to do in the future and need your help. As for Fulin, I think he can come to the capital and live with you.

, to prevent you from always being uneasy, but I still want to remind you that you must warn Fulin that the Qing Dynasty has been destroyed, and he is already an ordinary person, so he should not have any dreams of being an emperor."

"Fu Lin can study in a school or take the imperial examination. As long as he can pass the exam, it is not difficult to enter the court and become an official. You are the empress dowager of the Qing Dynasty, so you naturally have a lot of money, so your life is not a problem, so

The imperial court doesn’t need to support you anymore, okay, you can go down..."

...

Walking out of the Forbidden City, Bumbutai saw the carriage waiting in front of her. She felt as if she was in a dream, and she also had a hint of regret. If she had just said the words that she was willing to serve the emperor, she might have stayed in the palace.

The generosity of Emperor Wu Zongrui made Bumbutai feel unreal. Not only did he not kill Fulin, he also allowed Fulin to live and study in the capital, and even serve as an official in the court.
