Anu's carriage drove directly through the Xi'an Gate in the Xiyuan of the Imperial City of Beijing, and finally stopped at the entrance of the Yuxi Palace where Zhu Heji lived. The coachman stopped four Mongolian horses, and the Kotun of the Junggar Khanate slowly walked out of the four-wheeled carriage carriage with windows inlaid with crystal glass sheets.
This Kedun from Junggar really did not work for Emperor Zhu in vain. Zhu Heji has given her a lot of benefits these days.
The carriage she is riding in now was given to her by Zhu Heji at the Dagukou Pier when she returned from Japan - this carriage is now the number one expert in mechanics in the Ming Dynasty, and Huang Luzhuang, the owner of the Nanjing Bicycle Factory, used it for reference. It is designed as a Western-style carriage brought over a long distance by sea. It is particularly smooth and comfortable to ride. The windows are also equipped with flat glass sheets produced by Crystal Palace, which can not only block wind and rain, but also transmit light. Sitting in it is not only comfortable, but also respectable.
On the way from Guihua City, this carriage attracted countless eyeballs.
In addition to the carriage, Anukodon also received a palace in Beijing, which was the original Pearl Palace. It was given to Anukodon when she accompanied Zhu Heji back to Beijing... ...Of course, it is the Prince of Shunyi in name, Ge Erdan.
In addition, Anukodon also received a bonus of 10,000 silver dollars and the rank of minister for his outstanding performance in the Battle of Tataragawa. With this official title, she can now enter and exit Xihua Gate freely. . Because she was riding Zhu Heji's royal carriage, she had the privilege of riding in Xiyuan.
What moved Anukedun even more was that when Zhu Heji, a great master of the Ninth Five-Year Plan, heard that she had come to Xiyuan, he came out of Yuxi Palace to greet her.
That's why Anu came out of the carriage and heard Zhu Heji's hearty laughter: "Anu, what gust of wind brought you here?"
Anu looked up and saw the fierce and lovable man grinning at him with his eyes looking straight at his belly.
"I respectfully send you your holy greetings." Anu quickly saluted Zhu Heji, but was supported by Zhu Heji.
"Anu, you have a body, so don't be so polite."
Zhu Heji didn't see anyone outside at all. He took Anu's big hand and walked towards Yuxi Palace. As he walked, he asked: "How many miles have you been running back and forth? Can your body bear it?"
"Why can't you stand it?" Anu chuckled, "I have a car, and there's a heater in the car. It's smooth and smooth when running, and it's very comfortable."
"The journey is a bit tiring after all," Zhu Heji thought for a while and then asked, "Anu, does Ge Erdan know about your coming to Beijing?"
"I know, I know, he is the one who sent me."
While the two were talking, they had already walked into the main hall of Yuxi Palace together.
Yuxi Palace is located to the west of Taiye Pool. It was a palace built during the Jiajing period. When Zhu Heji arrived in Beijing, the palace was already dilapidated. After the project at Zizhuyuan was completed, Zhu Heji asked the engineering team from Tianjin to renovate Yuxi Palace.
The newly renovated Yuxi Palace looks luxurious and grand, a bit like the prosperous Ming Dynasty. Of course, although the current Ming Dynasty is not as prosperous as the Jiajing Year, in terms of finance and military strength, it is directly catching up with the Hongwu Year.
Zhu Heji did not stay in the main hall of Yuxi Palace, but walked through the main hall and entered a side hall used as a study.
There are no chairs in the side hall, but there is a fire kang, and a table is placed on the kang, which can be used as a desk or for other purposes.
Zhu Heji and Anukedun were sitting on the same kang, with a small kang table between them.
Soon the maid serving them served tea to them both. Just as the palace maid was serving tea, Anukedun took out a red invitation and gave it to Zhu Heji.
"Wedding invitation? Who is getting married? Is it Cewang Alabutan?"
Zhu Heji was thinking about Ge Erdan's nephew... He wanted Ce Wang to go to the United States to lead the battle! He cannot be an American Khan, but he can be an American Huitai Ji or something like that.
"No," Anu said with a smile, "it's Kangxi who wants to get married."
"Kangxi? Which one?"
There is more than one Kangxi. The ones currently known include Emperor Kangxi, Kangxi Khan, and General Kangxi...
"It's the Kangxi Khan who went to the Western Regions."
"Oh." Zhu Heji opened it and saw that the handwriting on the wedding invitation was indeed Kangxi's. Then he found the bride's name and read it, "Sofia Alexeyevna Romanova... .Why is she a hairy girl? Could it be that Kangxi was also good at this?"
"What is Mao Mei?" Anu was stunned, "Your Majesty, this woman named Suo is the princess of the Rakshasa Kingdom and the Golden Horde!"
"What? The Golden Horde?" Zhu Heji was stunned, "And the Rakshasa Kingdom...ah! Sofia of the Romanov Dynasty is going to marry Kang Mazi?"
This time it was Zhu Heji's turn to be dumbfounded.
Of course he knew that this Sofia was the prototype of the Sofia in "The Deer and the Cauldron", and he also knew that this Sofia was not beautiful at all, it should be said that she was very ugly.
But how did she and Emperor Kangxi get together? There seems to be no fate between them in history, right? Zhu Hexin said: "Is it because of me? Because of me, Rakshasa Kingdom and Paoluqing have to stay together for warmth?"
After thinking about it, he asked again: "Did Kangxi want Ge Erdan to have a wedding banquet?"
Anukedun nodded: "Kangxi wants to invite Ge Erdan to bring 20,000 to 30,000 Junggar elites to have a wedding banquet together!"
"Twenty to thirty thousand quasi-troops? He is going to..."
"We must frighten the heroes of the Western Regions, coerce the Bukhara and Khiva Khanates, and at the same time subdue the millions of Kazakhs on the Kipchak grassland!" Anuktun was still concerned about the situation in Kazakhstan, Bukhara, and Khiva. Very knowledgeable.
After all, Ge Erdan's father, Batur Hutaiji, had "conquered" the Kazakhs when he was in power. However, this kind of "conquest" is still very incomplete. It means sending troops over to beat up the army gathered by the Kazakh Khan... Either beat the Khan to death, or beat the Khan. Impressed.
But the Kazakh Uluses still exist and still govern millions of Kazakhs.
If you cannot effectively bring these people under your jurisdiction, the so-called "conquest" does not mean much.
So in the original history, while the Dzungars were fighting bad wars with the Qing Dynasty for decades, they also fought with the Kazakhs for nearly a hundred years - just from this point you can see the level of Ge Erdan!
Although he is a hero with great ambitions, his strategic and tactical abilities are not outstanding. He made a fatal mistake when it came to choosing his opponent. He left the Kazakhs who had been beaten to the ground without digesting it, and turned to attack Kangxi, who was much more powerful than him. He was really asking for his own death.
And Kangxi's performance after conquering the Kazakhs was much higher than Ge Erdan.
While he was marrying the Rakshasa Kingdom, he was holding high the banner of the Great Mongolia. At the same time, he held a Kuritai Conference in Tashkent through his wedding to Sofia to elect the Mongolian Great Khan... It seems that he wanted to use the Rakshasa people and the The prestige of Junggar once again promoted himself to the throne of Khan, and then took all the Uluses on the Kazakh grassland into his own hands, thus completely eliminating the possibility of the restoration of the Kazakh Khan.
This method...is worthy of Kangxi!
Thinking of this, Zhu Heji smiled and said: "Kangxi has always been the Chinese monarch for more than ten years, so I have to give him a gift when he gets married!"
"Follow the ceremony?" Anukedun was stunned, "Your Majesty, do you still want to follow the ceremony? Don't you want to kill Kangxi?"
"I think so!" Zhu Heji smiled, "But he ran so far and I couldn't reach him, so I could only watch him being carried back by Princess Sophia."
Being hugged by a princess? Anu thought to himself: "What kind of gameplay is this?"
"Anu," Zhu Heji said with a smile, "I am going to send a mission to send gifts to Kangxi... and by the way, I will send something to the Crimean Khan."
"Crimean Khan?" Anu had heard of the Crimean Khanate, but didn't know much about the specifics.
Zhu Heji said with a smile: "The Crimean Khanate and the Kazakh Khanate are bordering each other. You only need to cross the Kipchak Grassland to get to the Crimean Khanate. This Crimean Khanate is the Golden Horde. The remnants of the Khanate should also send envoys to attend the wedding of Kangxi and Sofia, right? I have something I want to ask them to pass on to the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire. Anu, can you make it easier for Ge Erdan to take them along? ?”
