Ming Dynasty Road

Chapter 51
Lord Fulehebeile walked in the front row of the team wearing a tuanlong python robe. The weather in Beijing is several degrees higher than outside the customs. These Manchu missions were still wearing thick clothes. Lord Fulehebeile The black official hat on his head was very stuffy, and the sun made him sweat all over his body. The soldiers of the Qing Dynasty were neatly dressed, and no one dared to move around. Taboo, he casually took off the big hat on his head, revealing a big bald head like a green duck egg, with hair the size of a coin on the back of his head, and a bunch of money rats left along the blue scalp. Seeing Lord Fleurhebel taking off his hat first, the other Manchu and Han officials couldn't bear the scorching heat, so they took off their big caps one after another and rode proudly on their horses. .

"Look, this is the braid of the Tartars. It's really ugly, hahaha." Many of the onlookers on both sides of the road saw the braids of the Manchus for the first time, and they began to discuss.

"What do you know? It's the tail of a money rat. The tartars think it's pretty, but it looks like a pig's tail, hahaha!"

Listening to the discussions among the people on the side of the road, the Manchu and Qing missions didn't care. They were so proud that they thought their heroic appearance had touched the people in Beijing. The officials smiled frequently and waved to the people on both sides, but there was a burst of booing earlier, and the people mercilessly ridiculed this group of Manchurians who issued weird papers.

Under the guidance of officials from the Ministry of Rites, the missions of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties came to the post house of Honglu Temple in the Ministry of Rites. There are lush flowers and plants underneath, and there are endless pavilions and pavilions inside the wall. The small bridge next to the rockery in the post house flows with gurgling streams. This is similar to the state guesthouses of later generations. It is a place dedicated to receiving envoys from various countries. Most of them are empty, with very few people living in them, and most of the people who come in and out are craftsmen who clean up and take care of flowers and plants.

Lord Fulehebeile and Jiang Rong first came to stay at the post house of Honglu Temple. Since the diplomatic relationship between the two countries has not been confirmed, Zhu Youjian will not be in a hurry to meet them. Instead, officials from the Ministry of Rites will first come forward to receive the Manchu and Qing missions. In view of the fact that the current state of war between the two countries has not yet been lifted, the Ministry of War has arranged a large number of forbidden troops to guard around the post house of Honglu Temple. This will not only prevent the soldiers of the Manchu and Qing missions from making trouble, but also prevent the common people from attacking Honglu because of hatred The temple post house caused some unnecessary troubles.

The current situation is very similar to the confrontation between Song and Jin in the Southern Song Dynasty. Both sides are eager to swallow each other, but none of them have the strength. Because of the refugees in the Ming Dynasty, they are temporarily unable to deal with this unfriendly neighbor. , while the Manchu Qing side is busy restoring their national strength because of the new emperor's ascension to the throne, so everyone tacitly understands that this negotiation is to buy time for both sides, and start the battle when they have accumulated enough strength.

The Ministry of Etiquette is responsible for the specific reception work, and Zhao Yi also became the person in charge of the reception of the Manchu and Qing missions under the appointment of His Majesty the Emperor. In order to show the demeanor of a great country and let you and other barbarians know the tolerance of Ming Dynasty, we must treat each other with courtesy and generosity. Therefore, there is no restriction on the actions of Lord Fu Lehebei and Jiang Rong, but it is only stipulated that the soldiers of the Manchu and Qing Dynasties must not It is easy to enter and exit the post house of Honglu Temple.

"How much hardship we have suffered outside the customs." Fleurhebel opened the window in the house, looked at the Forbidden City in the distance, and couldn't help sighing: "When I was outside the customs, every time I fantasized about the city of Beijing. When I arrived in the capital today and saw this majestic Miyagi, I realized why the ancestors had to come here, this great Beijing city is really so charming."

Jiang Rong laughed and said: "That's, that's, sooner or later these will be the world of the Qing Dynasty, why should Lord Baylor care about it!"

Fu Lehebeile stopped, and sneered at Jiang Rong: "Sooner or later? In my opinion, it's not that easy. The Ming Dynasty is a centipede, dead but not stiff. It's not easy for me, the Qing Dynasty, to break into the customs."

Jiang Rong, with a flattering face: "Although Da Ming is a centipede, death is not stiff, but now they are not easy, the refugees are making a lot of noise, Da Qing still has a great chance."

Fu Lehebeile sighed, and said: "I don't want to worry about these things anymore, why worry about things that didn't happen, since I've come to this colorful world of Ming Dynasty, why don't I go out and have a look."

*****
In the Honglu Temple post house, in the room next to Fulehebeile, there are several people hidden under the dim light in the room, one of them said in a deep voice, "Have you written down the conversation between Tartar and that dog traitor just now?"

"It's all written down, do you want to copy a copy and send it to Mr. Zhao? They are going out, do we need to follow?"

"Well, send a copy of their conversations every day. If they want to go out, let them go. Mr. Zhao has already arranged it, and people outside will watch."

After finishing speaking, a group of people fell into darkness.

*****
In the side hall of the Forbidden City, Zhu Youjian was busy with government affairs as always. These days, Zhu Youjian insisted on practicing Zhao Yi's gymnastics, and his spirit was refreshed.

After a while, a little eunuch from outside crept in and whispered a few words into Zhu Youjian's ear.

Zhu Youjian nodded, showing a gratified smile from time to time.

"Very well, Zhao Yi has arranged this matter very well. It is not in my Da Ming's interest, but it can also show my Da Ming's tolerance. Go down, tell Zhao Yi, and continue to inquire.

The little eunuch bowed and retreated.

*****
It was the first time for Lord Fulehebeile to come out of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and he finally arrived at the beautiful land of the Ming Dynasty. Naturally, he wanted to have a good time. Regardless of Jiang Rong's objection, he still went his own way and changed into the costumes of the Ming Dynasty. Taking the appearance of a Han scholar, he took a folding fan and waved it in his hand. After Jiang Rong failed to stop him, he had no choice but to change into Han clothes. Accompanied by officials from the Ministry of Rites and a few guards arranged by Zhao Yi, he visited these places full of novelty. of Beijing City.

The culture of the Han nationality is extensive and profound, and the Manchus also vigorously absorbed the Han culture after the new emperor ascended the throne, and the management and etiquette system followed the example of the Ming Dynasty, so Lord Fulehebeile also imitated the appearance of the Han people, holding a fan in his hand Shaking in the hand, at first glance it really looks like a Han scholar.

　A belated blessing. I wish you all a happy double festival. I hope you can spend more time with your family. I wish you all a happy day. Thank you for your support. Thank you.
