Looking at the Mongolian princes bowing their heads and ears in front of them, Zheng Kezang smiled faintly. To be honest, if it hadn't been for him to shake the layout of the Manchu-Mongolian alliance, he would never have met these descendants of Genghis Khan. [Thanks for supporting the novel] But now that we have met, Zheng Kezang is confident that his skills may not be worse than the one in Beijing.

"It's been half a year for some of you to come to this feudal clan, and it's been a few months for some of you, and you haven't been treated well. It's true that you're lonely. It just happens that you have time these few days, so please come over for a talk. "Zheng Kezang stretched out his hand to make the petition. "Don't be cautious, sit down and talk." All the Mongolian princes looked at each other, they didn't know what kind of medicine Zheng Kezang was selling in the gourd, but the butcher's knife was on his head, so he had to thank him, and then sat on the ground. After the person sat down, he realized that the things under his buttocks seemed to have been taken out of his own big tent. Naturally, he sighed secretly again, and heard Zheng Kezang asking at this time. "Have you ever met Bogda Khan in Beijing? I'm curious, how is he alone?"

It is difficult to answer this question. It is not always necessary to say that Kangxi's brilliance is irresistible in front of Zheng Kezang.

So there was a silence for a while, and Hasu Jinong, the Duke of Eastern Ujumqin Banner captured on the Korean battlefield, stood up and saluted Zheng Kezang: "His Royal Highness King Xia, who has countless warriors, Bogda Khan is a smart man." He also has countless warriors and wise ministers under him. Although I don't know who will win in the end between you and Bogda Khan, I believe that the winning side will definitely pay a heavy price. "

After listening to the translation, Zheng Kezang nodded with a smile. That’s right, there are famous generals such as Fei Yanggu, Sabusu, and Sun Sike in the Qing court at the moment. It was already extremely critical for the Qing court, and it was impossible for these generals at the bottom of the box not to wear their horses. Therefore, the tragic war that Hasu Jinong said was not a random guess.

But Zheng Kezang asked about Kangxi, not Qing Dynasty. It can be said that Hasu Jinong actually changed the concept secretly. Zheng Kezang just pointed to the sideburns on his forehead and asked: "I heard that Bogda Khan Do you have long hair too?"

The interpreter next to Zheng Kezang gasped, but Zheng Kezang's gaze was fixed on him immediately. He dared not stop translating, but it turned out to be exactly as Zheng Kezang said. It was a question that he could answer, and several princes who had met Kangxi affirmed it one after another. This result immediately shocked the interpreter who knew nothing. [ ]

Zheng Kezang didn't care what the interpreter from the Fanyang Yamen was thinking, and continued to ask: "How is Bogda Khan treating Mongolia well?"

"Very good." Maybe someone next to him said something wrong, and if it spread, it would be detrimental to the tribesmen on the grassland, or it might be angered by Zheng Jun's repeated interrogation and interrogation in a way similar to humiliation after he captured himself. Rabut stepped forward and responded first. "Bogda Khan's kindness to the Mongols is higher than the sky and wider than the grasslands."

This is true, because the Qing court kept saying that it was full of Mongolia, so it was very generous to the Mongolian princes. All titles were hereditary, and their treatment was even better than that of the Qing Dynasty's own royal family, so that the sons of Mongolian nobles Afterwards, they become hereditary nobles. After they become adults, they only need to learn etiquette such as bowing down and paying respects, and presenting khata snuff bottles to enjoy the shadow of their family.

Moreover, in order to take care of the daily expenses of these Mongolian nobles, the Qing court also stipulated in detail the salaries of the Mongolian princes at all levels in the "Regulations of the Lifan Court", so that they could receive a large amount of silver and silk from the Qing government every year. Become another batch of vampires and parasites other than the Manchus who suck the fat of the Han people.

What's more, in order to take care of the landless idle princes and Taiji, Kangxi personally stipulated that a part of the slaves owned by the landed prince Zasak should be allocated to serve the landless princes. Princesses and princesses marry to Mongolia and become relatives with Mongolian princes.Therefore, for the grateful Mongolian princes, this kind of kindness is indeed higher than the mountains and deeper than the sea.

"Oh, is that really the case?" Zheng Kezang looked at Rabut with a half-smile. [ ] "How did I hear that Bogda Khan does not allow Mongolians to read Chinese, know Chinese characters, communicate with Han people, and even watch Chinese dramas? Even entering Wutai Mountain to pay homage to Manjushri limits."

Zheng Kezang's words were ruthless and accurate, and he hit the door of life all at once, making Rabut unable to answer for a while. At this time, a helper who shared the same hatred with Rabut responded: "It's not that you Han people are treacherous. The Mongols have suffered a great deal from you, and Bogda Khan is doing it for the good of the Mongols."

"For the good of the Mongols?" Zheng Kezang looked at someone who was still supporting himself and laughed. "Even if it is, let's tell Gu, what happened to the policy of reducing the population implemented by the Qing Dynasty in Mongolia?" As soon as the interpreter finished speaking, the whole venue was in chaos. The young prince Taiji didn't realize it, and thought Zheng Kezang He was talking nonsense and immediately counterattacked, but the older ones had already started reciting Buddhist scriptures. "Korqin made great contributions to the Qing Dynasty, and produced a few empresses, but there is only an upper limit of [-] arrows. I don't know how many upper limits you have in each banner, but you can think about it, do you have any brothers who have to become monks? You can also go back to the tribe and ask how many tribesmen dare not get married or die."

"Manchuria came from Shui Dada. They were originally Mongolian shepherds, but now they are superior to other tribes. I feel sorry for you." After the commotion in the venue subsided a little, Zheng Kezang continued. "Thinking back in the years of Wanli and Tianqi, my Ming Dynasty and Mongolia had not fought for a hundred years. We traded in the frontiers, exchanged what we had, and lived and flourished with each other. However, we did not expect that the Eastern Barbarians suddenly emerged and swallowed up Mongolia and China in a corner. 20 people, but only a million dependents, why surpass all nations? One is that there are many traitors among our Han people who treacherously seek glory, and the other is that you Mongols have become pawns before others for a little profit."

"Today, one hundred thousand tigers and wolves with the three-foot sword alone wiped out half of the demon atmosphere, which is considered to have restored the Han nationality's clothing system and etiquette articles, but what about you Mongolians? You are still stuck in the glory of the past, and continue to be cannon fodder with some benefits. Cannon fodder is fine, have you got it? No, you have to be a back for others.” Zheng Kezang’s words aroused the resentment of the Mongolian princes at Shanahai’s actions, but if they wanted to say a few words, they would Zheng Kezang has no such delusions of winning over a group of Mongolian princes and shaking the foundation of Manchuria and Mongolia. "That's all I said today. If you can return to the grassland tomorrow, you should secretly think about how to act in the future. Even if you have to obey the order of Donglu to be an enemy of our army, I hope you will act cautiously."

Seeing all the Mongolian princes either dismissive or contemplative, Zheng Kezang suddenly smiled again: "Actually, you have treasures in Mongolia, coal, copper, gold, these are not counted, cattle, sheep and horses, which are not from the Central Plains?" Yes, if Gu drove the Donglu to death in a border area the next day, we could still be good neighbors, I don’t want to see Donglu dragging you to die together.”

After being escorted back to the temporary residence by Zheng Jun, the Mongolian princes who sat together again began to talk about this weird meeting. Some people said that this was Zheng Kezang’s plot to divide Manchuria, while others thought Zheng Kezang was right. The Mongols really shouldn’t act as unwelcome gunfire for the Manchus. Some people talked about the coal, copper and gold mentioned by Zheng Kezang, thinking that Zheng Kezang was talking nonsense, and some people planned to send someone to look for them after they went back. thing.

However, the more topics of these princes and auspicious people revolve around Zheng Kezang's news about the reduction of Ding.Some people insist that Mongolia has a large land area and scarce production. If the population is too large, it will not be able to support them.However, some people related to the closed flag border system and believed that the Qing court’s demarcation of Inner and Outer Mongolia became more and more dense, which made the Mongols completely lose their nomadic traditions, so that Inner and Outer Mongolia could not stop Zhungeer, who was also a Mongol. The Qing court also continued to allow the Han people to farm and set up prefectures and counties within [-] miles north of the Great Wall.

"Okay, stop arguing." Suzhartu, son of Zasak Gushan Beizi of Zharut Zuoyi Banner, yelled loudly while clutching his injured arm. "It's fine to say some things here. If you can return to Mongolia, you will forget all this. The Han people are cunning, and this King Xia is even more insidious. We Mongolian men can't fight, so don't join forces in the Qing Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty between."

Hasu Jinong, the Duke of Eastern Wuzhumuqin Banner, also changed his sly performance in front of Zheng Kezang, and said in a heavy tone: "King Xia said that Mongolia has a large land and abundant resources, which is obviously completely different from what the Buddha said. If you believe it , The bitter days of our Mongols have really begun, so let’s forget about everything today.”

Hasu Jinong obviously disagrees with Suzartu. One has already withdrawn and does not want to be caught between the two giants, while the other still stands on the Qing court’s side and regards Zheng Kezang’s words as seditious rumors. The status of the two is related. One is Zasak, the banner owner who owns the land and herdsmen, and the other is the Landless Fuguo Duke who can only rely on the relief of the Qing court. The brain is determined by the buttocks. It is understandable that the two have different ideas.

"By the way, you said that the king of Xia didn't talk to us about this earlier, and he didn't talk to us later, but now he is looking for us. Is it because someone from the north is going to redeem us to go back?" The influence is relatively large, so all the princes wanted to disperse, and suddenly someone yelled. "It must be like this. I remember something that King Xia said. It seems that he told us to go back or something. That's right, that's right, it must be like this."

The Mongolian prince who was about to disperse suddenly became excited, and everyone couldn't help getting together again, expressing their opinions one after another, thinking that the day when they might return home was at hand.

Only a few were sober-headed and splashed cold water: "Going back, it's not that easy, let alone whether Bogda Khan will send someone to negotiate with King Xia, even if he does come, I'm afraid we may not know that we are still alive."

"If Beijing thinks I'm dead, will my younger brother succeed me to my title and territory?" A banner owner in his thirties couldn't help but spit out the haze buried in his heart after being captured. "If this is the case, wouldn't I have nothing left, and I can only become a lama when I go back, no, I don't have the root of wisdom!"

These words made the faces of several banner owners Zasak turn pale. As for the faces of the others, they were also not good-looking. Obviously, the fate of being fooled is to lose them together. This painful lesson made the captured princes subconsciously treat the Qing court. Generated more dissatisfaction, even the most hard-core Qing fans---those landless princes and Taijis---are no exception
