Emperor Kangxi sent me to marry

Chapter 147 Peace talks (2)

Chapter 147 Peace Talks ([-])

Allabutan didn't like the Rakshasa people.He was ashamed to patrol and guard these people.

But this does not mean that he likes Qing people.In fact, he only likes his own family, the Mongols.He loves everything about Mongolia.Race horses happily on the grassland, drink the pure white milk and fine wine in the bag, hunt the fattest gazelle, and so on.

As an Erut nobleman and the grandnephew of Galdan, Alabutan had already contributed his marriage to politics at the age of 15, marrying the daughter of Zasaktuhan.Aside from her parentage, Alabutan couldn't find a single likable thing about the 11-year-old girl.But it doesn't matter, for a boy like him, there will never be a shortage of passionate young slave girls in the tent.

"Uncle Danzira, I like your new musket."

"The governor gave it to me. If you are willing to treat him with more courtesy, you may get it too."

"Oh! Then I don't like it."

Like Galdan, Danzila doted on Allah Butan.Named uncle and nephew, like father and son.

It's a perfect summer night.You can see every star that is willing to shine in the deep blue.The terrain is flat, the wind comes and goes freely, and the heat is shunned.

"Without feathers, no matter how big your wings are, you can't fly; without manners, no matter how beautiful your appearance is, you will be ridiculed. When did your manners get eaten by wolves?"

"Don't uncle think that these Raksha people are hateful? They are as hateful as the Qing people. The Mongolian people will handle our Mongolian affairs. There is no need for them to come and point them out. Tushe Tuhan killed my father-in-law, After being defeated by my uncle, I ran to seek help from the Qing Kingdom like a coward. I despise him. But now my uncle asks the Raksha people for help, and it has nothing to do with Tuxietuhan..."

Danzila gave his nephew a whip without waiting for him to finish speaking.

"The Great Khan is not here, otherwise he will beat you harder than me. If the Qing Dynasty was so easy to deal with, would the Great Khan ask for help from Eros? You have not learned anything for a whole year. Go, ride Get on your horse and meet the Governor's guest. Don't forget his name, Thomas."

"I can't remember such a strange name!"

"Then, you can also call him Xu Risheng. It is said that this is the name given to him by the emperor of the Qing Dynasty."

Allah Butan took his beloved big gray horse and went away muttering.

Although Danzila scolded his nephew, deep down in his heart, he didn't like Raksha people either.

Those tall cavalrymen with yellow hair and blue eyes spoke a language he could not understand, but their arrogant attitude and rude behavior showed that they looked down on the Mongols and the way of life here.Food rations are in short supply, Khan reduces his own food intake, and takes out the accumulated treasures in exchange for food entertainment. This group of people is still not satisfied, and often snatches meat and tea that should belong to the Erut people at will, and complains frequently. Expressed incomprehension about the lack of domestic water.

Unlike Ala Butan, who is a little naive, Danzira is very practical.He accurately calculated the reserve of rations and the consumption of cattle, sheep, horses, and camels, so anxious that he couldn't sleep.Whether it is reconciliation with the Qing Dynasty or fighting with Rakshasa, this matter must be resolved as soon as possible.If the delay continued, they were not defeated, but starved to death first.

"Who?"

Hearing the sound of footsteps crushing pasture and scattering dew behind him, Danzira pulled out his saber subconsciously.

"Oh, don't be nervous, Golovin invited me."

Xu Risheng judged from his attire that the burly man with a long knife and a beard in front of him should be a Mongolian.His mother tongue, Italian, and Latin, the language of the Church, would then be of no use.So he was speaking the Manchu language he learned in the Forbidden City.

Although Danzila didn't understand Manchu, he heard Golovin's name, combined with Xu Risheng's green eyes and high nose bridge, he judged who it was, and put away his saber.

"This way."

To show respect, Golovin took out a more gorgeous high-necked tuxedo than when he met Soetu and the others during the day, and greeted the romantic Italians.

"Thomas, my friend. Excuse me, it's a rough place. I've run out of sugar cubes early, but I still have fresh milk. Sit down and have a cup of tea!"

Xu Risheng looked around and was shocked by the luxury inside the yurt.The gilt candlesticks, the white tablecloth trimmed with lace, and the silver samovar all gleamed.

"The governor seems to have moved the most fashionable salon in Moscow to the grassland."

"Oh, no, if I serve guests with such rough utensils, my wife will drive me out of the house and become a laughing stock in the court. Sit down!"

"No. At such a critical moment, the two sides are one step away from a duel with guns. I'm not in the mood for tea."

Xu Risheng coldly pushed back the milk-smelling porcelain cup, and quickly repeated Kangxi's request.

"You know, the emperor of the Qing Dynasty would never accept the sending of Heilongjiang. Yakesa City was built by you without permission. The pearls, ginseng, and mink that you have robbed over the years, His Majesty the Emperor is magnanimous and does not intend to care about it. So, please don't Continue to make trouble for no reason."

"Oh, you said making trouble for no reason! Then, the envoy on the opposite side, that Soetu, and the uncle of His Majesty the Emperor, didn't they make trouble for no reason when they demanded that Lake Baikal be the boundary?"

"Are there no Mongols grazing around Lake Baikal?"

"The Mongols have surrendered to us! Galdan..."

"However, there are also Mongols who submit to the Qing Dynasty! The 4 people of the Tuxietu Khan tribe intend to become the subjects of the Qing Dynasty. Their pastoral areas should also belong to the Qing Dynasty."

"No, this goes on forever. Let's talk about something simple, Thomas. For example, how much salary does the emperor of the Qing Dynasty give you a year?"

"how?"

"Ten thousand rubles."

"what?"

"Ten thousand rubles. Cash."

"That's ridiculous. Is such a large piece of land worth only ten thousand rubles?"

Golovin angrily tore off the tie of his tuxedo, his stout calves in riding boots were stretched apart, and his fists, as firm as a hammer, kept beating on the table.

"Why, do priests start to be thieves these days? Ten thousand rubles! My Latin is really not very good, did you catch me?"

"I understand. Ten thousand rubles is not enough. I want thirty thousand."

"you this……"

"There is an insider. A spy. He is by your side. If you agree to the offer, I will expose him."

Golovin's small eyes blinked shrewdly.

"You're not bragging, are you?"

"Last night you sent your personal escort back to Moscow."

"Oh, God!"

"Learn how to pray well. Don't think that Galdan sent people here to protect you. Thirty thousand rubles, not a penny less. See you at the negotiating table tomorrow, Mr. Governor."
