The peace talks with the Tartars are still a hot topic in major newspapers and magazines. The smoke of gunpowder is everywhere on the battlefield of criticism, and the scholars suppressed by Zhu Youxiao are trying their best to express their politics.

What they didn't know was that His Majesty the Emperor Zhu Youxiao had determined the process and candidates for the peace talks.

Wen Tiren, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites, was the chief envoy, and Yang Sichang, the fourth-rank Zhongshun doctor, was added as the deputy envoy.

Zhu Youxiao originally wanted to add another level to Wen Tiren and let him participate in the peace talks as a regular envoy, but when he learned from the Jinyiwei that Huang Taiji was the ones who were Bele Dorgon and Li Yongfang, and Huang Taiji also appointed Dorgon as Prince Heshuorui in advance and awarded Li Yongfang a third-class viscount, he decided not to give him the title of Wen Tiren for the time being. A third-rank minister and a fourth-rank doctor of the Ministry of War were considered enough to respect Huang Taiji.

Who made him Huang Taiji's Later Jin Kingdom a place of detention for the Ming Dynasty, and it was not even as high as North Korea's position in front of its own Celestial Kingdom.

So Zhu Youxiao did not intend to give Huang Taiji any face, so who made the people who seek peace now was Huang Taiji?

After learning that Huang Taiji's chief and deputy envoy had entered Shanhaiguan, Zhu Youxiao immediately summoned Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang.

"You must understand one thing clearly in this peace talk with the Tartars, that is, this peace talk is not because we waved our tails and begged for mercy from the Tartars, but because the Tartars asked us for peace. I, the Ming Dynasty, be kind to the world, agreed to his peace talks. Therefore, you should not lose the face of the Ming Dynasty, but have the majesty of the envoys of the higher country;

"In addition, during this peace talk, I put forward a few principled opinions: First: The Tartars cannot be called emperor, but can only build a country of father and son; Second: The Tartars cannot be allowed to form an alliance with Mongolia; Third: Restore annual tribute, but the tribute will be three times higher than in previous years. Fourth: The Ming Dynasty only recognizes that it has the land of northern Liao, south of Haizhouwei, east of Sancha River, and west of Leopard River, and returned to the Ming Dynasty; Fourth: Allow the Ming Dynasty to establish an embassy in Shenyang."

Zhu Youxiao said again, "If one of the above four points cannot be achieved, I will not agree to the peace talks!"

Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang hurriedly said yes, but they had to admit that the opinions raised by His Majesty were a little embarrassed, and Huang Taiji probably wouldn't accept any of them after hearing them.

Since Huang Taiji returned to Shenyang, he has accelerated the expansion of the Eight Banners of the Later Jin Dynasty, and changed the country's name to Qing in advance, established himself as emperor, and changed the era of Chongde.

I don’t know if Huang Taiji’s move was caused by the humiliation of Zhu Youxiao, and used it to declare that he was no longer a minister of the Ming Dynasty, but a dignified emperor of a country.

However, in this way, history changed again at this moment. The history that originally changed the country's name to "Qing" eight years later, that is, in 1636 AD, was advanced by eight years, and the year name Chongde was also advanced by eight years.

In addition, Huang Taiji also began to reorganize the Eight Banners of the Qing Dynasty, and at the same time established the Eight Banners of the Mongolian Banners and the Eight Banners of the Han Army, and promoted a large number of young generals such as Zhenghuang and Huang and Zhengbai to become the chief commanders of the Han and Mongolian Banners, preparing to control the two newly established forces.

However, because Huang Taiji angrily killed Daishan and abandoned the Great Bele Amin, other Manchu banner owners had become dissatisfied with him.

Therefore, Huang Taiji has no way to raise his troops to go south now, and he also pays great attention to this peace talk.

Therefore, he specially sent Dorgon, the most strategic, as the main envoy, and even appointed him as the prince, and made Li Yongfang the deputy envoy in order to better communicate. After all, Li Yongfang was also a Han Chinese.

...

At this time in Jizhou City, Lu Xiangsheng had transferred the Imperial Guard Cavalry Battalion and the First Infantry Battalion here in accordance with Zhu Youxiao's order.

The reason for doing this is naturally to put military pressure on the Tartars who came to the peace talks. Of course, it is best to directly scare them out of their courage and make them have only obedient signatures in the peace talks.

Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang also arrived at Shuangfeng Town less than ten miles from Jizhou City, but Wen Tiren ordered to stop moving forward at this time and sent people to Jizhou City to inquire about the situation.

Seeing this, Yang Sichang was a little puzzled and asked, "Mr. Wen, you are about to arrive in Jizhou City, why have you stopped again?"

Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang naturally didn't know that in history, they had been fighting each other for decades and were almost incompatible, but in this world it was rare to plan together.

Therefore, Wen Tiren did not hide from Yang Sichang, and sat indifferently on the rocking chair, savoring the Longjing in front of the rain: "Brother Yang, don't forget the instructions of Your Majesty before we left, and let us not surrender our identity as a countryman. If we are in a hurry to enter the city and let us wait for Huang Taiji, wouldn't we be at a disadvantage?"

As soon as Wen Tiren finished speaking, a soldier hurriedly ran in: "Report to the two masters that the envoys of the Tatars also arrived in Shuangfeng Town, and did not enter Jizhou City immediately."

"Is that true?" Wen Tiren heard this and hurriedly got up and walked out of the inn. He saw thirty Tartars gathered around a table in a hotel far away, and there was a person sitting on the table, and the man was delivering peanuts into his mouth.

"He is Dorgon!" Yang Sichang hurriedly said.

Wen Tiren asked in surprise: "Do you know him?"

"When the Tartars plundered the capital, the lower officials happened to pass the place where the Tartars went and happened to know this person." Yang Sichang said, "Shilar Wen, judging from this person's posture, it seems that he has to wait for us to enter the city and wait for them first."

"Hmph, I think so beautifully, keep drinking tea. Now we are not the ones who are asking for peace talks." Wen Tiren said and told someone to call someone to sing the song, and it seems that this is going to be consumed with Dorgon.

Yang Sichang couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly, and picked up a book and flipped through the window.

It was sunset, and Li Yongfang, who was on the Tartar side, saw that no one had come out of the post station for a long time, said anxiously: "Prince Rui, this envoy from the Ming court is going to spend the night here."

"They spend the night, and we spend the night too." Dorgon said and asked Li Yongfang to ask the waiter to open a few rooms, as if he was going to waste time with Wen Tiren and others.

After three days like this, Dorgon couldn't stand it, so he had to get up and take a horse and leave.

When Wen Tiren heard that Dorgon had set out, he delayed it for another half a day before slowly rushing towards Jizhou City.

But when Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang drove a ceremonial war to Jizhou City, they found that Dorgon had not entered the city at this time and walked out of the woods beside him.

Wen Tiren couldn't help but say to Yang Sichang: "This Dorgon really couldn't sleep in the wild for a night."

At this time, Dorgon, who came over, saw that the scale of the ceremonial guards of Wen Tiren and others was not the size of the Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, couldn't help but pull down and rushed forward and asked, "I dare to ask what position the noble envoy holds?"

"Wen Tiren, the left assistant minister of the Ministry of Rites!"

"Doctor Zhongshun, Yang Sichang, the doctor of the Ministry of War Military Selection Department!"

As soon as Wen Tiren and Yang Sichang finished speaking, Li Yongfang behind Dorgon shouted: "What, I only sent two third- and fourth-rank officials to come. What does the Zhu family mean?"

A snap!

Yang Sichang didn't know when there was a long whip in his hand and hit Li Yongfang directly: "You are the ministers of the Ming Dynasty, and my emperor is the co-lord of you and others. How dare you be so disrespectful, you dare to stop the envoys. What does your Khan mean? He sent such a person to discuss!"

Li Yongfang did not expect that the Ming court envoy on the opposite side would suddenly take action, and he was so angry that he wanted to draw his sword, and the Tartars behind him also wanted to draw his sword.
Chapter completed!
