Chapter 9 True and False Jade Seals (3)
Chapter 9: True and False Jade Seal (3)
Although Fan Wencheng and other ministers all believed that this imperial seal was genuine, it did not mean that Huang Taiji really believed it completely. The superiors were always suspicious. No one had seen such a national treasure for thousands of years. Even if it was really in front of him, no one could fully identify it. But he believed that it was unlikely that the second similar one in the world would be found in such a treasure. Even if the imperial seal obtained by Lin Danhan was imitated, that is, he recognized his current one. Although the treasure was good, it could only be hidden deep. What he wanted was a title. Although he was full of excitement, his mind was still clear.
"Fan Aiqing stays behind, everyone else will be separated." Huang Taiji ordered.
Although he couldn't help but feel a little jealous, Fan Wencheng is indeed Huang Taiji's chief think tank, which is something that others can't compare to. Huang Taiji is a hero of a generation, so he naturally knows who is a talent and who is a fool!
After Huang Taiji left Fan Wencheng, he ordered someone to pass on Sony. He was excited last night and had not had time to ask about the negotiations and the process of obtaining the imperial seal. Now that I remembered it, I naturally had to ask.
"Sony, tell me carefully about the whole process of going to negotiate and escorting the Jade Seal of the Nation. No detail is allowed!" As soon as he saw Sony who was rushing to come, Huang Taiji asked directly.
Sony had already prepared some things, but organized the language for a while and said, "Report to Your Majesty, I will go to Ulanqab to negotiate with Chahar Mongolia..."
Sony talked endlessly for more than half an hour, and finally let him talk about handing over the imperial seal and signing a secret agreement. Suddenly, a group of masked men in black broke into the heavily guarded tent. When they were killing people, Huang Taiji and Fan Wencheng were both shocked. Since they heard Sony's narrative, they have always suspected that the Ming court was so easy to meet each other this time, but they had no reaction. They watched them negotiate the conditions and sign the agreement, and they turned out to be trying to catch them all.
No, if this group of men in black were sent by the Ming court secretly, wouldn’t it be the imperial seal he obtained?
"Report to Your Majesty, the man in black only robbed the secret agreement we signed, and they didn't seem interested in the imperial seal, and later they were left behind. The two of them did not dare to postpone it. They discussed it and re-designed the agreement. After the signature and seal handover, they escorted the imperial seal meeting to come." Sony himself didn't know how to explain this plot, because he didn't understand the situation clearly.
"So, the Ming court is determined to have that secret agreement. This is unreasonable. Even if this secret agreement can be kept confidential, it cannot last long. The Ming court will know sooner or later. There is no need to do this. Moreover, taking away the unsigned agreement is just a piece of waste paper. What was the Ming court singing? The old minister really can't figure it out." Fan Wencheng shook his head repeatedly, obviously he was confused.
"Weichen also found it strange, but the situation at that time was that there was almost no loss except for a few people who died. The imperial seal was also there, and it was not necessary to concentrate the nine keys to open the nine-layer box. Could it be that the Ming court had mastered the nine keys, opened the box, took away the real imperial seal, and replaced it with a fake one for us?" Sony was shocked and stuttered.
"The old minister once heard that in the 13th year of Hongzhi in the Ming Dynasty, Mao Zhixue of Hu County obtained the jade seal in Nihe. He presented it to Emperor Xiaozong by the governor of Shaanxi Xiong Yu. Emperor Xiaozong believed that it was a fake seal, but it was still collected in the palace. There was no news of the imperial seal being passed down again." Fan Wencheng thought for a while and said.
"What I mean is that the imperial seal I obtained is likely to be the fake seal obtained by Emperor Xiaozong, and the real seal has been replaced by the Ming people?" Huang Taiji said dazedly.
"This old minister is unknown." Fan Wencheng shirked.
The three kings and ministers looked at me and I looked at you, obviously it was difficult for them to accept this speculation.
"Your Majesty, it is difficult to tell whether the imperial seal is true or false. The imperial seal that Lin Danhan obtained from Bu Shitu may not be true. As long as everyone in the world knows that Your Majesty, you have obtained the imperial seal, then this jade seal is true." Fan Wencheng reminded Huang Taiji not to pay too much attention to the imperial seal itself.
"But?" Huang Taiji frowned. He naturally understood this truth, but he was still a little worried.
"Your Majesty is too worried. The old minister dares to guarantee that even if the Ming court obtains the imperial seal, they will not take it out and tell the world." Fan Wencheng smiled slightly.
"Why is this?" Huang Taiji said inexplicably. Logically speaking, if the Ming Dynasty obtained the imperial seal at this moment, it would not have to show it everywhere to show it to show the destiny of the Ming Dynasty. This would have a huge effect on the serious atmosphere in the court and the country because of the reform incident and ease the relationship between local gentry and Confucian scholars and officials who were dissatisfied with Confucianism.
"Your Majesty, think about it, you exchanged this imperial seal for 100,000 taels of gold and 500 miles of grassland, but the Ming Dynasty snatched it from our Dajin and Chahar Mongolia. The destiny belongs to this heaven, which is incorrect, dissatisfied, and even bears the reputation of a villain. The old minister has never heard that those who obtain the imperial seal by violent means can win the world. When Emperor Gaozu of Han, Liu Bang, got the imperial seal, got the imperial seal, but the Qin Dynasty's devastated gentleman kneeled to present the "Son of Emperor Seal" to Liu Bang. Only then did Liu Bang win the world and snatch the jade seal by despicable means. Sooner or later, the Ming Dynasty's world will perish." Fan Wencheng analyzed one by one.
"Fan Aiqing said some truth. Although my jade seal was exchanged for conditions, it can be regarded as a gift from Chahar Mongolia to me. They received the money and grasslands that I rewarded, and they presented the imperial jade seal to me. Isn't this the truth?" Huang Taiji became happy after hearing this.
"Mr. Fan is right. My Jin and Mongolia are originally one, and we are in harmony with each other. Lin Dan Khan of Chahar Mongolia presented the imperial seal to Your Majesty, but in fact he was to give your Majesty you. It is impossible for Han and Mongolians to live in peace. Only those with our Jurchens are of the same clan and close branch. Therefore, I suggest that Your Majesty enthrone Lin Dan Khan of Chahar Mongolia in the name of Tian Khan." Sony suggested.
Good boy, your move is really vicious. Fan Wencheng threw a glance at Sony and praised it. Chahar Mongolia was pro-Ming, and the Emperor of the Ming Dynasty did not give Lin Danhan a canon. If this was enthroned by the Great Jin Kingdom, it would be a vicious plan to distract the intimate relationship between the Great Jin Kingdom. If the propaganda is properly planned, you can use this secret negotiation to pull the Mongolian tribes of the Chahar Mongolia to the Great Jin Kingdom, so as to achieve the effect of defeating others without fighting.
"This meaning is so wonderful, it's so wonderful!" Huang Taiji also understood the power of Sony's suggestion, and immediately praised it with joy.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty for getting another good talent!" Fan Wencheng was also very happy. To push Huang Taiji to the position of a king of ten thousand chariots, it would not be possible to rely on his own strength alone. At least more intelligent and talented people can do it. Sony is one of the young people Fan Wencheng is more optimistic about, and he is also a member of the Jurchen tribe and has Xifu. Ganglin's relationship will definitely be valued by Huang Taiji in the future. It is rare to be extremely young. Fan Wencheng naturally needs to establish a good relationship with him. He will always give him a favor and give him a secret push. He will definitely get exponential rewards.
Sony was indeed extremely excited and threw gratitude to Fan Wencheng. Although Fan Wencheng was a Han Chinese, he was not as important as Dai Shan, Haoge and others. If he could get his appreciation, his future would be bright.
"Sony, I plan to imitate the Ming court and set up a vassal court (the Ming Dynasty has changed its Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the Later Jin Dynasty is behind again), and let you act as an agent. How about it?" Huang Taiji said to Sony with a smile.
"Your Majesty, I am a little talented and very young. I am afraid that I am not able to handle such an important position." Sony was ecstatic, but he showed a slight joy and quickly knelt down and refused.
"Okay, I use my talents to rank only. I have long seen your abilities, but I have never found a suitable position to arrange you. Now, this Lifan Academy is in charge of the affairs of the vassals and tribes of my Great Jin Dynasty. You are a talent in this regard. I am very relieved to hand over the Lifan Academy to you." Huang Taiji said with great confidence.
However, according to convention, the Lifan Academy belongs to the ministerial-level yamen, and at least one Beile and Beizi is supervised. Therefore, the power is still in the hands of the Aisin Gioro family. However, Sony is now Huang Taiji's confidant. Once this newly formed yamen passed, it took power, which made the young talents of the Jurchen tribe envious.
But envy is useless. Who told me that they had a strong relationship? They were still in the Ming Dynasty. What about the celebrity in front of His Majesty Tian Khan?
After discussion, Huang Taiji issued an order to enthrone Lin Dankhan as Chahar Khan, and the 500-mile grassland assigned to the Mongol tribe of Chahar was his place of grazing. He also appointed Sony, the new Left Minister of the Lifan Court, as the special envoy of canonization, and brought the enthronement edict and golden seal to enthrone!
Lin Rong finally decided to go to Jiangnan. On the night before leaving, she was extremely entangled with Zhu Yinglong and used all her strength to make fun of her. She even promised to stop contraceptives and give birth to a child for Zhu Yinglong. These made Zhu Yinglong even more lustful. She had been unable to sleep with her bed for several months. How could she not comfort the beauty well?
On the second day, Zhu Yinglong personally sent Lin Rong out of Yongding Gate in a mistress and agreed to return date.
Yanhong's belly is getting bigger day by day and is not suitable for serving Zhu Yinglong. At this time, Lin Rong went to Jiangnan again. Originally, Lin Rong wanted to stay and wait for Yanhong to give birth and talk about it next year. However, Zhu Yinglong felt that since she agreed to her, it would be difficult to regret it. Anyway, is it difficult to find someone to serve her in the palace?
However, when Yanhong returned to her bedroom and raised her baby with love and Lin Rong left, Zhu Yinglong realized that these two women were missing, and his life was so chaotic. All the food and rest in the past were basically reminded by Yanhong or Lin Rong, and they also knew some of his unique habits. After a sudden change, Zhu Yinglong found that the food was not as good as the taste. When pinching the shoulders, he either had heavy or light. He could not find the harmonious feeling of the past, and his temper became worse. Fortunately, he had good control and no innocent people were angry.
There are not many concubines in the palace who can serve others. Apart from the Yanhong palace maid and Lin Rong learned in Japan, almost none of them were born as a young lady. Those who danced swords and guns would not be able to serve others. Others could not serve them, so they changed two female officials and tried for several days before they got used to it.
