"I'm afraid that Nurhachi will dare to bring out everything he can. Nurhachi's ambition and courage are still there. I guess your appearance made him feel huge crisis pressure. Since Li Chengliang's later period, Nurhachi has never appeared again. Anyone who has suffered such a big loss, even my father, in those two years, to be honest, was on the defensive and very passive when facing Nurhaci."
Bushiya Mara told the truth, "If you hadn't convinced Zaisai after the battle in Yongping Mansion and finally formed an alliance, the Horqin people would definitely have turned to the Jianzhou Jurchens, and our Yehe tribe and the Nekalkha people would have been in danger. , maybe now the Yehe tribe is gone, and the Inner Khalkha people will only follow the Jurchens of Jianzhou. This is the case on the grassland. As you said, they are afraid of power but not virtuous, because virtuousness is the only thing on the grassland. Can’t survive.”
Feng Ziying quite recognized Busia Mara's frankness.
The rise and fall of the tribes on the grasslands is more frequent than that of the Central Plains dynasties, and they may even disappear without leaving any trace within a few decades, so it is a bit exaggerated to expect them to be virtuous and trustworthy.
Zaisai is not stupid and can control the five tribes of Inner Khalkha. How can he fail to see the advantages and disadvantages of vertical and horizontal techniques and cooking rabbits to death?
When the Jianzhou Jurchens threatened the Great Zhou, or even had the upper hand, the Inner Khalkha people would of course choose to form an alliance with the Great Zhou, because once the Jianzhou Jurchens won in Liaodong, the survival of the five neighboring Inner Khalkha tribes would be jeopardized.
Similarly, once the Great Zhou Dynasty really wiped out the Jianzhou Jurchens in Liaodong, how would the surrounding tribes such as the Inner Khalkha and Chahar people deal with themselves?
Will Dazhou's blade be pointed at them?
Everyone will weigh it carefully.
The five Inner Khalkha tribes are not like the Horqin or Yehe tribes. The Horqin and Yehe tribes no longer have the ability to survive independently in this area. They can only rely on the strong, but the Inner Khalkha and Chahar people Like the Jianzhou Jurchens, they also had ambitions, so their relationship with the Zhou Dynasty was destined to be complicated, and it was impossible to completely fall to one side like Horqin and Ye Hebu.
"It seems that the honeymoon period between us and the Inner Khalkha people has ended in such a short time. Aren't Zasai and I going to become enemies again?" Feng Ziying's eyes flashed with a touch of coldness. This was all expected, but it came too late. A little faster, "It doesn't matter, what is supposed to come will always come, Busia Mara, what about Ye Hebu?"
Bushiya Mara also had a sad look on her face, "I don't know, maybe these tribes on the grassland are divided into life and death like this, right? When you are the leader of these tribes, you have to have this kind of consciousness. Bar."
Seeing that Bushiya Mara could be so open-minded, Feng Ziying felt at ease, "Maybe I should give you a promise. Even if the Yehe tribe is included in the territory of the Great Zhou in the future, you can still retain your original customs. We, the Great Zhou They are not as overbearing and barbaric as the Jurchens who entered Jianzhou. They insist on surrendering completely to the feet of others. They have a sense that those who obey me will prosper and those who go against me will perish. We are more willing to get along with each other as equals. We are all people of the Zhou Dynasty, and there is no distinction between each other. …”
Bushiya Mara smiled half-heartedly, "Ziying, can you express such a stance now? Governor Ji Liao has such great power? Shouldn't it be your cabinet or the emperor who has such power?"
Feng Ziying didn't take Bushiya Mara's teasing seriously, "Busiya Mara, you just need to remember that the things I promised have always been fulfilled, otherwise Xiao Feng's editing will not matter. Whether it’s the Supervisor or Mr. Feng, the reputation won’t always be so strong!”
Feng Ziying said this sentence with great confidence.
Feng Ziying has such a good reputation, whether in the eyes of warriors or businessmen, her reputation is more real than pure gold. It depends on her promise and keeping her promise.
It should be said that Bushiyamala's visit caused a sensation in the back house.
Although many people are not too unfamiliar with Busia Mara, after all, Busia Mara has visited many times in the past two years, but many people have only one impression.
That is, she is a noble girl from the Ye He tribe of the Haixi Jurchen tribe outside the Pass. Because she has a life-and-death feud with the Jianzhou Jurchens, she wants to use the Great Zhou Dynasty to fight against the Jianzhou Jurchens. She helped her husband when he was the magistrate of Yongping Prefecture. My husband was very busy, and his promotion all the way to Shuntianfu Cheng was also due to the battle of Santun Camp, and he even had a relationship with the Inner Khalkha people.
All in all, this woman and the Haixi Jurchen Ye Hebu behind her were of great help to her husband.
As for whether their husband-in-law had any special relationship with this Jurchen woman who was obviously much older than her husband-in-law, the girls didn't care much about it.
Even if there is, so what, is it possible that the husband can still marry her back? If he really wants to marry her back, it won't be a big deal. One more is not more, one less is not a lot. Are there still fewer women in the back house?
Later, everyone also learned bits and pieces from Sister You. It seemed that this woman seemed to be very attached to her husband, and she had never married. They didn't know what the customs on the grassland were.
Anyway, the general meaning is that this woman and her husband are a bit sticky and unclear, and the girls don't care anymore. The worst is the fate of an outsider, so what else can happen?
However, this woman's tall and fit figure and big breasts comparable to Siqi still made the women have different thoughts. Most of the women in the back house were petite and exquisite, and the only ones with taller figures were Miaoyu and Yingchun, and Sisters Li Min and Li Qi are taller, but compared with Busia Mara, who is half a head taller than Feng Ziying, they are not the same. Therefore, the sudden visit of such a unique woman still caused a stir. Great interest from everyone.
What on earth are you here for? Have a child and need an identity? Or do you feel that you are getting older, want stability, and hope to enter the government? Or is it purely business?
It's just that my husband has been talking alone with the woman in the study, and the women in the back house are not ignorant. They all tacitly agreed not to disturb her and just waited quietly.
At this time, Sanjie You became the subject of inquiry by the girls.
"It's very powerful. In terms of martial arts, I'm afraid I'm inferior. Her full-moon scimitar can not only kill people at close range, but it can also fly around and kill people ten steps away. So when I went to Jiangnan and Liaodong, Bushiyamala also went with me, and with her here, my pressure will be much less."
Third Sister You also had a carefree temperament. She didn't hide anything else, except that Busia Mara had given birth to a pair of twins for Feng Ziying a long time ago, and she couldn't hide anything else.
Sooner or later, they will all come to the door and they will be spread out. Besides, when I go back to Liaodong, I guess I will definitely have to borrow a lot of time from Busiyamala, and Busiyamala will definitely follow me.
"So my husband has been involved with this Jurchen noblewoman for a long time. Third sister, you did a good job of hiding it for me." Shen Yixiu smiled half-heartedly and knocked on the concubine who belonged to his room. The concubine has no consciousness at all, and completely regards herself as a personal bodyguard, which is completely different from Second Sister You.
"Sister Shen, you have never asked. Besides, my little sister feels that you don't care about this at all, sister Shen. Isn't my husband always held in the palm of your hand? How can he still fly away? Our whole family is like a fool. You have a child, who else can your husband elope with?" Sanjie You said nonchalantly: "Besides, my husband has always been measured and knows the importance. If it's because of official business, then I can't interrupt."
What Sanjie You said was so logical and righteous that for a moment Shen Yixiu felt that he could not refute it.
Of course, both inside and outside of his words, he praised himself to the extreme. My husband was held in the palm of his hand, just like Sun Wukong couldn't fly out of the Tathagata's palm.
Xue Baochai and Lin Daiyu also pursed their lips and smiled, and it was Baochai who spoke up, "Sister Shen and Sister You's words seem to make sense. Are we too sensitive? Or maybe we are less confident now that we have children?"
The other girls also laughed.
"Well, when you say that, it seems like it's true. We sisters have become short-tempered and guilty, right?" Shen Yixiu smiled sweetly, "It should be Nabu Xia Mara who comes to pay homage to us. Anyway, we She has to go through the door first. Whether she wants to enter the house or ask for an identity, shouldn't she be the one to come? But if she just wants to talk to the husband about official matters, then it's not easy for us to interfere. Whatever, then we will wait."
"Yes, if we send people to inquire eagerly, my husband will think that we are being narrow-minded, and Bushiyamala will probably think that we cannot tolerate her. But how could our sisters ever be that kind of people? Baochai smiled faintly and said, "Everyone just dispersed. If she really wants to come, or if my husband wants to recruit her, we won't be too late to talk, and we won't be in a hurry."
"Actually, the sisters don't need to worry so much. Judging from the younger sister, Busia Mara is also a forthright person. If there are no other special reasons, since she is here today, she will probably come to visit the sisters. As for her Whether she will enter the house, I think it is unlikely. She has a temperament that cannot be restrained. She would rather be free outside by herself. Her thoughts are different from those of us Han women..."
Seeing that all the girls were still a little unsure, Third Sister You couldn't help but explain to Bushiyamala.
Her friendship with Bushiyamala is much deeper than that of other women in the house. Over the years, she and Bushiyamala have gone through life and death together, and they are both straightforward and not too thoughtful.
In addition, Feng Ziying basically does not shy away from Third Sister You. For example, when she goes to Wang Xifeng's house in Tianjin Wei, she always takes Third Sister You with her. In these aspects, Third Sister You's reputation is still very stable.
