"Haha...Hong Aiqing, they did a good job when I went back to tell Tumen. I'll take note of the credit, and I will discuss the merits and reward them later." Looking at Hong Hu who came in to report, Zhang Rui said happily.
"Yes, Wei Chen will thank the King of Han for his kindness." Hong Hu also looked at Zhang Ruishili with a smile on his face and replied.
"Let someone bring Aixinjueluo Yongqi to me! I would like to see what is so special about this fifth elder brother of the Manchu Qing Dynasty." Zhang Rui said.
"Yes, King Han. I will go and take care of it now." After speaking, Hong Hu bowed and left.
…
After a while, Hong Hu ushered in a young man.
This young man was about sixteen or seventeen years old, about 1.6 meters tall. Although he still had the characteristic face of the current Manchu people, he also had eyes and a nose, and his facial features were normal.
However, compared to his appearance, the tiny money hanging rat tail left on his bald head is more eye-catching, especially the whip is tied behind with a red silk scarf, which makes people feel... strangeness.
Although the visitor's face looked a little haggard, it was still rosy. It didn't have the food of some hungry people or even the green camp soldiers that Zhang Rui had seen. It was estimated that he usually ate and drank well.
Without guessing, Zhang Rui knew that this person was the Aixinjueluo Yongqi that Hong Hu mentioned.
"King of Han, I've brought you here." Hong Hu bowed to Zhang Rui and said.
"Well, no courtesy for you, please." Zhang Rui nodded and replied, then continued to look at Aixinjueluo Yongqi.
It seemed that he wanted to find out what made him different from ordinary people from this fifth elder brother who was highly praised in later generations.
"Why don't you kneel down quickly?" At this time, Hong Hu pointed at Aixinjueluo Yongqi who was still standing there and yelled.
Seeing Aixinjueluo Yongqi still standing there unmoved, Hong Hu immediately became furious and was about to step forward and kick his knees twice to make him kneel down. Oh my goodness
At this time, Zhang Rui waved his hand indifferently and said to Hong Hu: "Hong Aiqing, forget it, if he wants to stand, just let him stand!"
"We are all civilized people, unlike the Manchu people. We don't have to be made to kneel down at any time. Besides, if a person doesn't kneel down to you sincerely, even if he kneels down, he will still curse in his heart. If you go to the wrong grave, it will be meaningless."
"Yes, King Han..." After hearing this, Hong Hu once again cupped his fists and bowed to Zhang Rui.
"Boy, the King of Han is kind and considers you lucky. When you come here, you must be self-aware. Don't think that you are still the fifth prince."
Although Hong Hu shouted at Aixinjueluo Yongqi, Aixinjueluo Yongqi looked completely unmoved. Hong Hu was so angry that he gritted his teeth and almost wanted to He stepped forward and beat Zhang Rui in front of him.
In Hong Hu's view, the reason why Aixinjueluo Yongqi dared to be so pretentious was simply because he didn't fight enough. If Zhang Rui hadn't called Aixinjueluo Yongqi over in advance, Hong Hu would have given Aixinjueluo Yongqi such an attitude that he would have beaten him severely.
Just like when he dealt with Yang Yingju, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and the garrison general Sitku, they were quite tough at first, but in the end they succumbed to his fists.
At this time, Aixinjueluo Yongqi was also looking at Zhang Rui, who was not far from the front.
The military uniform is designed to be chic and elegant, very attractive. Although it is not as simple as a vest, it is still flexible. With that short hair, she looks very energetic.
Although in Aixinjueluo Yongqi's mind, everyone must have a money hanging rat tail to have the correct hairstyle, but looking at Zhang Rui's outfit, coupled with Zhang Rui's regular facial features.
If someone else didn't shave his hair like a rat's tail, Aixinjueluo Yongqi would definitely have to say, it's so ugly. However, when facing Zhang Rui, whom he needed to look up to, Aixinjueluo Yongqi couldn't say anything against his will: It's so ugly.
"Are you Aixinjueluo Yongqi?" Although he knew that this person was Aixinjueluo Yongqi, Zhang Rui still couldn't help but asked stupidly.
"Yes." Aixinjueluo Yongqi was surprised why Zhang Rui asked him this in the first sentence. It made him feel that Zhang Rui seemed to be very interested in him.
However, Aixinjueluo Yongqi clearly remembered that it was the first time he saw him, and it should also be the first time he saw him. And since he was not well-known, there was no reason for a rebel leader to worry about him.
But how would Aixinjueluo Yongqi know that he would be praised in various ways in various Qing palace dramas in later generations. Zhang Rui, who originally didn't watch palace dramas very much, was also influenced by the women around him, and naturally he "admired" his name for a long time.
"Very good, have you eaten?" Zhang Rui asked politely as usual.
"Not yet..." Aixinjueluo Yongqi still felt that Zhang Rui was strange, but he answered truthfully.
"If you haven't eaten, just eat some here. This is my breakfast, you can eat it without worry." With that, Zhang Rui brought the breakfast placed in his tent to Aixinjueluo Yongqi.
Aixinjueluo Yongqi looked at Zhang Rui holding the tray of breakfast with one hand, feeling a little dazed.
The breakfast didn't look rich, just a few steamed buns and a bowl of porridge. Such a breakfast seemed too ordinary and shabby, not to mention compared to the breakfast of Emperor Qianlong, or even compared to the breakfast of a prince.
However, Zhang Rui, as a rebel leader, even single-handedly conquered such a large area of the Qing Dynasty. As a country boy, to be able to make such a leap, logically speaking, he should be enjoying the glory and wealth, but he is actually so frugal. This is really puzzling, and it also makes Aixinjueluo Yongqi feel that Zhang Rui is indeed difficult to deal with.
At the same time, even when facing Zhang Rui, who was his enemy, Aixinjueluo Yongqi was slightly moved by him. Because even his father, Emperor Qianlong, had never handed him food or cared about whether he had eaten breakfast.
However, this rebel who stole the Qing Dynasty was still concerned about himself. His status can be called his own Khan Amma, but he does things that even his own Khan Amma would not do.
Aixinjueluo Yongqi felt that to say that he was not moved at all would be to deceive himself.
At the same time, Aixinjueluo Yongqi really couldn't figure out why Zhang Rui cared about him and was so kind to him.
