Rebirth of the deer dragon, the leader of the dragon

Chapter 583 Difficult choices

"The envoy of the Qing Dynasty, Suo Etu, sees King Shun." Although Suo Etu clearly knew that the man in front of him was his former sworn brother Liu Feiying, he also knew that it was this man who made the Qing regime crumbling. He was a man ten times more terrifying than Oboi. The villainous hero, but he couldn't get angry at the moment, and he had to respectfully pay respects.

Although Suo'etu and himself were sworn brothers for the purpose of mutual use at the beginning, but in the later contact, Suo'etu really became brothers with him. Seeing the indifference on Suo'etu's face at this moment, Hong Tianxiao Suddenly, he felt ashamed, not to mention that his daughter Gu Lier had become one of his wives and concubines. Hong Tianxiao stood up, waved his hands, and made everyone on the left and right stand back. In front of Ertu, he grabbed his arm and said, "Brother, there is no need to be polite, there are only two brothers here."

When Suo Etu heard the word "big brother", his body couldn't help trembling for a while, but then he returned to normal. He hurriedly released Hong Tianxiao's right hand, and still respectfully saluted: "Prince Shun, I am the minister of the Qing Dynasty." , how can we call Shun Wang brothers and sisters, I dare not."

Hong Tianxiao said with a chuckle: "Why, elder brother is still angry with younger brother? It was really unavoidable for younger brother to do that, please forgive me. Although we are opposing sides now, the brotherhood of the past is still there. If we negotiate today The envoy was someone else, and my brother beat him back with a stick long ago, but since he is the eldest brother, the younger brother will naturally treat him well."

When Suo'etu learned that Hong Tianxiao and Liu Feiying were the same person, he was really furious. The feeling of being played by Suo'etu was unbearable.Originally, Kangxi asked him to come here to negotiate, but Suo'etu didn't want to come, but after all, this was considered an imperial decree, and he dared not disobey.In fact, he also knew in his heart that Kangxi knew about his marriage with Prince Kang and Liu Feiying for a long time, because Prince Kang had an important position to guard the capital, and the task of going to Hong Tianxiao's side to hold back Dashun's army in the name of negotiation was It can only fall on him.

"Third brother, to be honest, you have caused big brother a lot of trouble. Who would have thought that you, the head of the imperial bodyguard who is most loved by the emperor, would be the number one traitor in the world. Both your second brother and I were harmed by you. He was sent to prison by the emperor." Suo'etu was originally a treacherous and cunning person, since Hong Tianxiao still called him big brother, Suo'etu just happened to climb up the pole.

"Hehe." Hong Tianxiao said with a smile while pulling Suo'etu to sit beside him, "Brother, I can't blame my younger brother for this matter. This country belongs to our Han people, but it was taken over by you Manchus. What did you do?" It’s just taking back what the ancestors left behind.”

After a pause, Hong Tianxiao said again: "Back then, because of Chen Yuanyuan, Wu Sangui invited the Qing army to enter the pass, and Huang Taiji just wanted to plunder here and then retreated out of the pass, but he defeated Li Zicheng by accident. He just entered Beijing and established a dynasty. Now, my younger brother is not talented, and I would like to bring back the foundation of my ancestors. As long as the emperor of the Qing Dynasty can lead his army to withdraw from Beijing and return to the outside of the pass, my younger brother will definitely not kill them all."

When Suo'etu heard it, the more he heard it, the more unpleasant he was. He was an envoy, and he came here to negotiate with Hong Tianxiao on behalf of Kang, but he didn't want to wait for him to speak. : "Third brother, you don't miss the old kindness, but the emperor still misses your old kindness. This time, he sent the elder brother to negotiate with you, and asked the elder brother to bring you a gift, so that the third younger brother is satisfied."

"Gift?" Hong Tianxiao was curious, and asked, "What gift? Brother, why don't you show it first, so that I can open my eyes."

Suo'etu laughed and said, "Third brother, don't be impatient. I haven't seen you for a long time. Don't you think third brother invites elder brother to have a drink?"

"Hahaha, of course." Hong Tianxiao couldn't help laughing when he saw that Suo'etu suddenly sold the lawsuit, suppressing his inner curiosity, and said with a smile, "Okay, okay, although we are currently in a hostile position, the brotherhood is still there, Today, my little brother got drunk with big brother."

"Come here, serve good food and wine on the two tables. Remember, good wine." Following Hong Tianxiao's shout, He Yujiao walked in, but after hearing Hong Tianxiao's words, He Yujiao was slightly taken aback and said, "My lord, there is no one in the camp." No alcohol."

It was only then that Hong Tianxiao remembered that he was in the military camp. He scratched his head and said, "Then send someone to a nearby market town to buy them, and go on a fast horse."

Suo'etu smiled and waved his hands and said, "No need, third brother, I brought you two jars of good wine, which is enough for you and my brother to drink freely. Third brother only needs to have some appetizers prepared."

Without waiting for Hong Tianxiao's arrangements, He Yujiao said, "Yes, my lord, I will go right away."

After He Yujiao left, Suo'etu smiled at Hong Tianxiao and said, "Third brother is really lucky, the women around him are more beautiful than the other."

Hearing the words, Hong Tianxiao smiled and said nothing, thinking to himself, of course, there is also your daughter Gu Lier, from Suo'etu's expression, it seems that he doesn't know about it, it seems that he arranged people to spread all over the palace. Kangxi sealed up the news of that letter, and those who read it did not dare to speak nonsense.

After a while, the food and drinks were served, Hong Tianxiao and Suo'etu gave up the negotiation for the time being, and chatted wildly.

It was only a stick of incense, and a jar of wine had already been divided into the stomachs of the two of them, and both of them felt a little drunk.

Hong Tianxiao remembered that he had promised Gu Lier before so that she could meet with Suo'etu often, and now he was half drunk, so he blurted out, "Brother, do you want Gu Lier?"

"Oh, I want to, how can I not want to?" Of course Suo'etu didn't know that Gu Lier had become one of Hong Tianxiao's wives and concubines, and thought she was killed for no reason. After all, the rivalry in the palace is very cruel.

Hong Tianxiao smiled mysteriously at Suo Etu: "Brother, let me tell you a secret, do you know why Gu Lier and the others suddenly disappeared from the palace?"

"I don't know." Suo'etu blurted out, but he guessed something right away. He only felt a burst of fire in his throat, and asked hoarsely, "Third Brother, could it be you...you took them away?"

"Hahahaha." Hong Tianxiao laughed loudly, "Brother is really powerful, just a little reminder from my younger brother, and my elder brother guessed it. Yes, it is what my younger brother did. Right now, all these women are in my hands, including Gu Li. Er and Empress Dowager Dayuer are included."

"Ah", Suo'etu woke up from the wine all of a sudden, grabbed Hong Tianxiao's right hand, and asked excitedly, "Third brother, is what you said true? Gu Lier is really with you? She...she well enough?"

Hong Tianxiao smiled slightly and said, "Of course, Gu Lier's life is much happier and easier than before. My little brother treats her very well."

Suo Etu breathed a sigh of relief, slowly released Hong Tianxiao's right hand, sighed and said: "Alas, I should have thought of it when I knew that Liu Feiying and Hong Tianxiao were the same person. Who else in the palace can get so many concubines out of the palace without knowing it, except for the third brother?"

Hong Tianxiao said with a chuckle: "Brother is really flattering younger brother. In fact, this is not what my younger brother did, it was made by Dongzhu. Oh, if you don't know Dongzhu, she is just pretending to be the empress dowager."

Hong Tianxiao's words shocked Suo'etu again, he couldn't figure out the young man in front of him at all, and sat there dumbfounded.

After a long time, Suo'etu sighed and said, "Third brother, could it be that you want to use Gu Li'er as a threat to let me be your secret agent? Third brother, although I can't govern the country with literature and security with martial arts, but He is completely sincere to Daqing, not to mention that you threaten Gu Lier, even if you kill my whole family, I will definitely not rebel."

"Hahahaha", Hong Tianxiao was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he suddenly burst out laughing, and said while laughing, "Where is the elder brother going, hehe, how could the third brother let the elder brother do the job of defecting to the enemy and treason?" Moreover, even if the younger brother takes over the world in the future, the elder brother and the younger brother are still brothers."

"Then you are..." Suo'etu felt more and more confused about Hong Tianxiao's intentions, and he found that he had completely fallen into a passive position, and this negotiation had already declared the failure of Suo'etu.

Hong Tianxiao smiled slightly and said, "The reason why the younger brother told the eldest brother about Gu Lier's whereabouts is because the younger brother promised Gu Lier that she would see you often. Because the younger brother wanted to launch an uprising, he brought Gu Lier to the Went to Yunnan, and now I am living in the mansion of Pingxi King Wu Sangui. When the younger brother takes over the world in the future, the Manchus will be like Mongolia, but become a Manchu tribe in the Dashun Empire. At that time, the younger brother wants to ask the elder brother to be an official Well, when the time comes, Gu Lier will be the noble concubine, and the elder brother will be the minister of the court, so your father and daughter will naturally see each other often."

Suo Etu heard that Gu Lier was safe and sound, and he could hear from Hong Tianxiao's words that Hong Tianxiao was very kind to Gu Lier, so he was also relieved.Suo Etu also understood what Hong Tianxiao said later. Hong Tianxiao wanted to use Gu Lier as a bait to make him an official in Dashun in the future. I came out, now Dashun is unstoppable, and the emperor asked the Raksha country to help me, I don’t agree with it, I’m tired, I just want to find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers to spend the rest of my life in the future, when the time comes As long as Gu Lier can visit me a few times a year, it will be fine."

Seeing that Suo'etu had made up his mind to retreat, Hong Tianxiao stopped trying to persuade him, but nodded sadly.

Suo'etu suddenly looked hesitant to speak, paused for a few moments, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Third brother, there is a saying that a brother should not say, and if you say it, you are disloyal to the emperor, but after all you I am a brother, and since Gu Lier has followed you again, Brother Wei can't bear to see you get hurt, let alone see you die, this is the last time Brother Wei will help you."

With a wave of his hand, Hong Tianxiao stopped Suo'etu from continuing, and said with a slight smile: "Don't tell me, brother, let me guess. If I guess well, the problem must be the gift. The gift is very likely She is a beautiful woman, and she is a stunning beauty, and this stunning beauty was ordered by the little emperor to take my life."

Suo'etu looked at Hong Tianxiao in astonishment, and after a while he sighed and said: "The third brother is really a god, and he guessed right."

Hong Tianxiao laughed loudly and said: "I'm afraid there is no one in the world who can take my little brother's life, let alone a woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken, even the abbot of Shaolin can't get close to me when I'm asleep Within. Moreover, if the younger brother guesses correctly, this idea is definitely not the little emperor's idea, and this woman probably came here on her own initiative, and the little emperor doesn't even know about it."

"Ah", this time Suo'etu was really taken aback. He recalled the matter carefully. Kangxi had just ordered him to come to Hong Tianxiao's side to negotiate. Huo Yunyi came to the mansion to look for him at noon, and followed him in the afternoon. When I got up here, things were indeed a little strange.

Having figured out this part, Suo'etu admired Hong Tianxiao even more, and sighed: "The third brother is really the proud son of heaven. No wonder the emperor will be defeated. It seems that the world should belong to Dashun. This time there is no need to negotiate again." Continue, brother already knows how to reply to the emperor."
