Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 308 I Ask for Seal ([-])
Although no one can pursue the matter of imperial envoy Gao taking care of private affairs during his official duties, the chances are very limited, because the defenders of Fort Desheng were finally half-liberated in the early morning of the next day after spending a day and night of fear.

Alda sent envoys to ask for negotiations in the city.

After hearing the news, Ma Wei, the guard of Deshengbao, naturally did not dare to be self-reliant, and hurried to the imperial envoy to ask Gao imperial envoy and Huang Zhenshou for instructions—it was a big event like war or war, and it was obviously not a military general after the middle of the Ming Dynasty. It counts.

But in fact, Huang Zhenshou decided not to do such a thing because he was a middle-ranking official, so Ban Lazi's imperial envoy Gao Shidu, as the only serious civil servant in Deshengbao, could only reluctantly shoulder this responsibility.

Of course, it was a reluctance, but in fact it was not difficult at all. Gao Shidu heard that I Da sent an envoy to negotiate, and agreed to let him enter the city without saying a word.

I don't know if I replied that I was afraid that Daming would continue to play the trick of beheading envoys and refusing peace, or for some other reason. In short, the emissary came very bachelor-a serious bachelor, not even a entourage.

Of course, he brought something enough to prove his identity: I Da's golden arrow.

This time, Gao Wushi directly excluded Ma Wei and others in a very civilized manner, and only brought Huang Mengyu, the guarding eunuch who has the nature of a Datong army supervisor, to meet the emissary of Alda.

This may be the difference between Gao Yushi and many traversers—he abides by the rules and will never violate the rules of the court at will, no matter whether the rules are express regulations or so-called unspoken rules.If he really wants to violate it, he will only find a way to change the rules first.

Ma Wei is just a general. Although it is reasonable to say that his rank is not low, but civil and military are different. What is the rank of a general in the eyes of civil officials?This is an unspoken rule. Even if Gao Yushi wins over generals, he will not be ambiguous about this kind of matter.

Just like he would never avoid others' kneeling ceremony like some traversers.

This was originally a court of civil officials, but now he is just an insignificant member of the civil official group. Speaking of which, he has not even had a chance to obtain fame. From then on, he could only look at Quan and sigh, was that what he wanted?
As for being able to say "Duke Zhou vomits and feeds, and the world returns to one's heart" without other people's kneeling and worshiping, Gao Yushi is not so naive.

Therefore, he unceremoniously asked General Ma to step aside for this kind of major peace talks. Of course, the name said that "the Tartars are cunning, and we must guard against their sneak attacks. The defense of the city is solid." So General Ma had no choice but to patrol the city himself.

The envoy sent by Alda is probably not an important person in Mongolia. His speech is vulgar and simple. The only advantage is that he can speak Chinese fluently. Immediately, I laid out all the conditions of my answer like pouring beans.

The requirements I answered are not complicated, the more important ones are as follows:
First of all, it is true that I heard that Bahannaji was not killed, but was appointed as a command envoy. He asked the envoy to personally see Bahannaji himself to ensure the safety of his grandson.

Then, I hope that Ming Dynasty can allow the mutual market, that is, reopen the border market, and allow free trade—at least free trade within the prescribed framework and quantity. As for the types and quantity restrictions of trading products, everyone can sit down and have a good discussion.

In the end, I said that since my grandson can be made a commander, I, as a right-wing Mongolian Khan, am willing to pay tribute to Daming, and I hope that Daming can give me the title of king. As long as Daming agrees, I am willing to swear in public that I will never Back, the people of Mongolia will never be allowed to harass the border areas of Daming, if any, I will kill them for Daming!
Of course, at the same time, Daming must also ensure that it will not kill Mongolian people at will. If there are Mongolian people breaking the law in Daming territory, please hand them over to me, and I will definitely give Daming an explanation.

These conditions, to be honest, if Gao Yushi had the right to make a decision, he would agree on the spot. However, the problem is that of course he does not have the right to make a decision. It is a major matter of national policy, and I cannot decide it. I can only report it to the court, ask the cabinet to discuss it, and His Majesty will order it. However, Gui Khan wants to confirm the safety of his grandson Hannaji. This imperial envoy can understand... How about it, The imperial envoy will discuss with the governor-general and the governor-general, and first invite Han Naji to live in Desheng Fort temporarily, and once the imperial court approves, he will notify Guihan to send someone to visit, what do you think?"

The messenger said: "Thanks to the imperial envoy, the villain thinks it is feasible."

Gao Wushi frowned secretly, and thought to himself: Why can't he even name him well? I am the imperial envoy of the Ming Emperor, and you are the emissary of Alta. Your Alta Khan is the right-wing Mongolian Khan. Even if you are asking for surrender, You should also call yourself a foreign minister, why call yourself a villain?
However, his heart moved immediately, and he asked, "Could it be that your envoy is originally a Han?"

The envoy looked surprised, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Don't dare to lie to the imperial envoy, Jia Ci is a Han woman."

Oh, I see.

Gao Wushi nodded, guessing that this person's mother was either a Han fleeing from the north, or a civilian girl who was captured by Alta in the early years, and was forced to marry a Mongolian nobleman after arriving in Mongolia. She must have been an ordinary woman with little knowledge, so Her son can only speak Chinese, that's all, he thinks too much about learning...

But this is not important, Gao Wushi sees that the important matter has been negotiated and decided, and he is too lazy to follow the half-level emissary to say more, but he has agreed with him that neither party will take the initiative to attack the other until the court makes a reply, and then let him go back to me The answer is dead.

After the emissary left, Huang Mengyu said worriedly: "Master Gao, it's not that I, Lao Huang, talk too much, it's just..."

In view of Huang Mengyu's excellent performance as a dog licker recently, Gao Yushi was more polite to him, and smiled immediately: "It's just what, Huang Zhenshou just speaks out."

Huang Mengyu sighed, and said: "Gao Shidu, my old Huang has not read many books. I can only say that I can barely read. In terms of knowledge, it must not be as good as Gao Shidu. But, I don't know Gao Shidu Do you know that the prohibition of tribute and trade with the Tartars was a decree of the late emperor, even Grandpa Long Live cannot change it at will, now..."

Of course, Gao Wushi could hear Huang Mengyu's implication: Since the late emperor made a decision long ago, it is definitely not easy to change it at will today. After hearing such news, Gao Shidu, you should immediately reject it with righteous words. It is worth it. Should this kind of news be transferred back to the capital?

You know, those censors in the capital are all very "loyal". After Han Naji was asked to surrender last time, whether to accept it or not? Seeing that I asked myself to be the king, there must be another quarrel.
