"Then why are you going to the Western Regions?" The old lady looked anxiously at her grandson.
"Of course you are going to lure my Amma out!" Jin Xuanye gritted his teeth and began to make up lies to deceive the old lady. Oh, it’s not all lies, but high-level lies that are both true and false.
The real part is that he also guessed that Zhu Cixiang wanted to use himself to fish out Emperor Shunzhi who had faked his death - who was Kangxi? That was the ruthless man who had hunted and killed the Third Prince Zhu all his life in history. He used himself to save others, and he also knew that Zhu Cixiang would not let Shunzhi escape by cheating his death.
Moreover, he also made a very reasonable analysis of Jin Yiwei's manhunt and Shunzhi's hiding situation through deductive reasoning.
For so many years, Jin Yiwei must have been conducting overt and covert inspections. However, Kangxi's Ama was also quite good at hiding, so Jin Yiwei's visits were in vain...otherwise Shunzhi would have been arrested and punished by Ying Tianfu Ming Zhengdian!
Needless to say, Jin Yiwei's main exploration direction must be the two vassal towns of Heilongjiang and Andong. But Shunzhi was also quite smart and did not hide in the Northeast, which seemed to be the safest on the surface, so the Jinyiwei searched for more than ten years and found nothing.
No, they should have found something, otherwise they wouldn't have turned to the northwest!
Moreover, the situation in the northwest is a bit chaotic during this period. The Snowy San Francisco and the two vassals left by Wu Sangui, as well as Daiwang, Geerdan, the Great Lama and other forces are confronting each other. A war is about to begin... This Behind the chaos, there may be the Shunzhi party fanning the flames!
Even if not, the Shunzhi party would not let go of this golden opportunity - Xuan Ye had also heard the story of the Eight Banners Mongolia and Horqin Mongolia moving westward. You don’t need to think about it to know that many loyal loyalists of the Qing Dynasty must have gone to the Western Regions and voted under the flags of the two Ming Dynasty vassals, Zhungeer and Heshuote. These people may still be in secret contact with Shunzhi...
After some brainstorming, Xuan Ye had vaguely guessed Emperor Zhu's intention, which was to use himself as bait to fish out his own Ama!
At the same time, he also thought that his Ama would not miss the opportunity to make trouble in the northwest!
Bumubutai looked at his grandson, a top student, and waited for him to continue.
Xuan Ye said: "Yao Ma, now the emperor wants my grandson to go to the Western Regions. Is it okay if my grandson doesn't go? If my grandson doesn't go, the emperor won't be able to manage my family? If the emperor has evidence that I am alive, then I His status as a surrendered king is gone! Without his status as a surrendered king, the title of Marquis Yanen is also gone!
My grandson is going to go. If he really fishes out Amma, will the emperor confiscate my entire family? Is it a merit or demerit for me to fish out Amma? Is the emperor such an unreasonable person? "
Aunt Bumubutai was a little shaken after hearing her grandson's words.
Zhu Cixiang was indeed rational in everything he did. Even if he wanted to punish or kill someone, he had to come up with an upright reason, and he had to explain the right and wrong clearly to make people convinced. For example, Kong Sizhen was convinced when she was "chopped". She was cut with three thousand knives (on her hair) without even a single complaint. She also served Zhu Cixiang obediently as a slave...
Another example is the handling of Shunzhi's relatives. They did not kill Bumubutai and Fuquan because of Shunzhi's rebellion. They only deprived Fuquan of his status as Prince Gong's son, and later transferred the title of Prince Gong to Jin who abandoned the secret and turned to the bright side. Bogo.
Xuanye, on the other hand, surrendered in the name of the Qing Emperor after Shunzhi's "death". He was still a baby at the time, so he enjoyed the treatment of surrendering the king and was granted the title of Marquis of Yanen.
As for Shunzhi's fake death and his real death, Yanenhou Xuanye will not be implicated in prison. However, it will have an impact on Xuan Ye's status as "King of Surrender". Once the status of "King of Surrender" is gone, Marquis Yanen will be gone, as well as the Marquis Mansion and Jue Tian... This is a big deal. A lot of money!
Under the governance of Zhu Cixiang, the nobles of the Ming Dynasty now put more emphasis on academic qualifications than ostentation. Except for those who are kings or are particularly wealthy, they generally follow simple rules and simple rules. If necessary, just go directly to the flag guard of the bodyguard army to "rent" the honor guard.
Therefore, 2,000 acres of Marquis land can make Xuan Ye's family live very comfortably. Moreover, Xuan Ye is a top student, so it is certain that he will be admitted to Taixue. After graduating from Taixue, even if he stays at the school to teach, he will still have a very good income...
"What about your Ama?" Bumbutai asked in an inaudible voice, "You have fished out your Ama, of course it is meritorious... The emperor is clear about rewards and punishments, and he will definitely give you a reward. , but you, Ama, will lose your head!”
When the old lady asked this question, Xuan Ye knew that she had been deceived!
Xuan Ye is much smarter than Fulin. Not only is he good at homework, but he is also eloquent. Bu Mu Butai is old and cannot resist his deception.
"No," Xuan Ye said, "I, Amma, can still surrender...and my aunt is still in the palace and is the emperor's favorite concubine. She can definitely intercede for Amma."
Bumbutai sighed, "It's hard for Ajige again... In fact, she is not favored much, and she is punished every three days. Fortunately, she can endure the grievance and can always wait until the emperor changes his mind. Otherwise, I would have been demoted to a slave long ago!"
...
When Bumbutai was deceived by Xuan Ye and agreed to go west to catch Shunzhi, the always wronged Ajige was kneeling to wash Zhu Cihong's feet.
Emperor Zhu turned over her sign tonight and arrived at Ajige's "hut in the forest" when it got dark.
The cabin in the forest is located in the forest of Laoshan Hunting Ground. It is said to be a cabin, but it is actually a two-story wooden house with a peak. It is built of logs and has a unique style. It was Ajige's idea to build this hut. It was not for Zhu Cixiang to rest here while hunting in Laoshan, but for her to dress up as a mountain woman and entertain Emperor Zhu who was "passing by" in the hut.
I have to say that Ajige is quite good at pleasing Zhu Cixiang.
Because she was favored and not afraid of punishment, she asked about "Xuan Ye's journey to the west".
"Long live my Lord, do you want Xuan Ye to go westward to use him to fish out the slave's brother Fulin?"
Zhu Cixiang smiled: "Of course not, why does Fulin need so much effort?"
"That's..." Ajige thought for a moment, "Who else is there?"
Zhu Cixiang glanced at her and said with a smile: "I want to catch more fish this time, and you are one of them."
"You still need to fish?" Ajige said with a smile, "I have already cooked it, put it in a basin, and put it on the table. Long live the Lord can eat whatever he wants..."
Zhu Cixiang laughed loudly: "This is called me being the knife and you being the fish... I just like your attitude of letting yourself be slaughtered!"
Ajige smiled and said: "I am willing to be slaughtered by Long Live Lord!"
Zhu Cixiang's tone became a little gloomy, "But there are still some people who don't know how powerful I am, and they want to compete with me on their patience and longevity! They think they are pretending to be grandsons, so I will ignore them.
Liaoyang Province has not been developed before, and the border towns of Daning, Anbei, and Peking are too desolate. There are still rogue bandits in Sichuan, so I can't take care of that much! "
Azig already understands!
Emperor Zhu released Xuan Ye just to lure Fulin out, and then use Fulin's accusation of being an anti-King Luo Zhi to frighten the Manchu warriors in Heilongjiang and Andong towns.
"But what if Fulin doesn't take the bait?" Ajige asked, "Has he been hiding well these years?"
Zhu Cixiang smiled: "It's not that there are no traces at all...it's just that the Jinyiwei group was a little slow and didn't catch him."
In fact, Jin Yiwei cannot be entirely blamed for this matter. His arresting skills are not good these days! Moreover, Ming Dynasty is now a country where people can wander around. Shunzhi took a large amount of money with him when he ran away, so where can he go? So it's really hard to catch.
Moreover, Zhu Cixiang didn't want to cause too much trouble, so he didn't draw any pictures or go to sea to catch official documents. He just asked the Jin Yiwei to conduct a secret investigation, so he didn't catch him.
Zhu Cixiang then said: "Ajige, Fulin can't run away this time... There will be a Fulin who will appear, and I'll trouble you to come out and identify him."
Ajige nodded: "No trouble, no trouble, long live the Lord and ask me to identify who is Xuan Ye and his Ama, I will identify him!"
