Chapter 441 Secret Spy
Zhu Qizhen sat alone in the imperial study room, frowning because he couldn't figure it out because he had a problem.
In the Northern Expedition, the Ola was destroyed, the Tatars escaped, the three guards of Duoyan were replaced to defend the Onon River, and a new pattern was formed in the northern desert, and they had peace for five years.
The question is, how can we be at peace?
The Tatar tribe claimed to be a golden bloodline. How could Genghis Khan's descendants easily give up the Onon River, which was regarded as a sacred place?
Over the years, Zhu Qizhen has imagined more than once how the Tatar tribe would make a comeback.
However, Tutuobuhua seemed to have completely disappeared from this world and had never appeared in five years.
Even when the Ming army launched troops against Annan, Chameng, ironclad ships went on an expedition abroad, and also launched troops against Uszang...
Even if the south is full of porridge, the northern border is still peaceful and peaceful.
Zhu Qizhen was very puzzled. Has the Tatar tribe all died?
Eated by White Walkers?
There will never be a plot where winter is coming and the White Walkers fall from the sky...
"Emperor, Mobei Wei Qiqike requests an audience!"
Zhu Qizhen opened his eyes and asked, "What are she here to do?"
Huaien bowed and said, "Did the emperor forget that Qiqike sent a memorial half a month ago, saying that it was an negotiation to set up a telegram line..."
Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but smile and said, "This woman is really competitive. When she heard about something new, she would definitely come to me to ask for it. This was the case when she built the railway!"
Huaien also smiled and said, "I have to say that over the years, the Mongolian tribes have been quite stable in her hands and have a good momentum of development."
"This is true!"
Zhu Qizhen nodded and asked again: "Where are you?"
Huaien said: "Go back to the emperor, I'm already waiting outside the Meridian Gate."
"Let her come in!"
"yes!"
"Wait a moment!"
Zhu Qizhen seemed to think of something and called out Huai'en.
Huaien quickly turned around and asked, "What else does the emperor have to give?"
Zhu Qizhen pondered for a moment, then asked, "How many people did she bring?"
Huaien thought for a while and replied, "There are only a few followers, about three or five people, I didn't pay attention..."
"Have she been to somewhere after she entered Beijing?"
"This... I don't know..."
Huai'en slowly lowered his head, and cold sweat had already oozed from his forehead.
Zhu Qizhen's face was a little dark, and he was also the leader of the Dongchang Factory. He didn't know what he wanted to do if he asked him.
"Xuan she entered the hall, and then went to check. How many people she brought to Beijing this time, and who did she have contact with."
"yes!"
Huai'en's face was pale and he left the imperial study room as if he was running away.
Soon, Qiqike came to pay a visit.
"I, Qiqike, ask the saints for peace!"
"I'm flat!"
Zhu Qizhen waved his hand and gestured, and at the same time, he couldn't help but take a few more glances.
Today, Qiqike wore a robe with a Mongolian style and accessories on his head, which seemed to be a very grand dress.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Qiqike slowly stood up, raised his head, and smiled sweetly.
She was originally the Princess of Ola, and grew up on horseback as a child. Compared with the weak Central Plains women, she was more heroic and brave, and her every move seemed to be full of vitality.
It is even more unique when paired with such outfits.
Zhu Qizhen stared at him for a long time before he realized that it seemed a bit inappropriate...
Qiqike did not pay attention to these details and spoke: "I went to Beijing this time to set up a telegram line. I heard that with the telegram, the imperial court's instructions could arrive in an instant. In this way, it would also help the emperor to grasp the movements of the Mongolian tribes. Why not do it?"
Zhu Qizhen said: "I have read my dear memorials. I just don't rush to set up telegram lines. When the time is right, the court will consider it."
Qiqike was not anxious and said slowly: "I heard that the Mohe Guard, which is far north, has already sent a telegram. I wonder why the Mobei Guard where I am is can't?"
Zhu Qizhen shook his head and explained patiently: "The Mohe Guards are on the northern border of the Ming Dynasty, and their strategic significance is relatively special. Opening this telegram line can be done regardless of the cost. However, the Mobei Guards are not a border, so they naturally have to consider their cost and purpose."
Qiqike thought for a while and said, "If the cost is too high, Mobeiwei can pay out of his own pocket."
Zhu Qizhen couldn't help but feel funny and said, "I heard that you mean, I have money now, right?"
Qiqike smiled and said, "Thanks to the emperor's grace, over the years, the Mongolian tribes have not had to worry about food and clothing, and every household has some savings."
Zhu Qizhen had no choice but to say: "I did not approve your request, it was not a matter of money. The main reason was that the telegraph and wire technology were not mature enough. The Academy of Sciences was improving. If the lines were laid now and when the improvement was successful, they would need to be replaced immediately. Wouldn't it be useless to waste money and food?"
Qiqik asked again: "When will it be improved?"
"This is not sure, but it should be soon!"
Zhu Qizhen flipped through the imperial case, found a map, and spread it out.
"Look at this place!"
Qiqike walked forward and heard Zhu Qizhen pointing to the location on the map and said: "The court has planned a route from the capital to Beihaiwei. Along the way, you will pass through Monanwei and Mobeiwei. It will be implemented in a year at most. You will be back and wait for news."
"Then thank you, the emperor!"
Qiqike could see clearly that since the court had already made plans and could try it within one year, there was naturally no need to ask further questions.
Zhu Qizhen put away the map and said, "The Mongolian tribes are also people of the Ming Dynasty. I will not favor one or the other. You can do your job well without running to the capital one by one."
Qiqike smiled and said, "I naturally understand the emperor's grace. I am afraid that the people of the tribes will not understand it. I will come to the capital to act like a show!"
Zhu Qizhen smiled in surprise, so that's how it is!
I thought that Qiqike was a hot person by nature and could not hide things in my heart. If I had anything to do, I would run to the capital.
Every time I ran over in a hurry and rushed back in rushing.
It turns out that it is for people to show off!
The Mongolian tribes in northern Mobei surrendered to the Ming Dynasty five years ago, and there must be grudges in their own hearts.
As long as there is a slight inequality, for example, if the imperial court built roads for Uszang, but there was no movement in Mobei, they would definitely think that the imperial court was wary of the Mongolian tribes in Mobei. If it was handled improperly, it would definitely breed a lot of negative emotions.
At this time, Qiqike personally ran to the capital and fought for a railway, and things were immediately different.
Since the court has given me a bowl of water, then everyone naturally has no complaints.
It can be said that Qiqike is very smart. He uses seemingly reckless behavior, but in fact he is maintaining the unity and stability of the Mongolian tribes.
Zhu Qizhen had to reexamine this woman. There were actually two reasons for leaving her behind.
First, Mongolian tribes need a leader, and this person must have a certain prestige to make the people of the tribes submit. Otherwise, the people will have no leader and will only increase the difficulty of the management of the court, and there will be a slight inappropriateness, or even the risk of chaos.
The second is the escaped Tatar tribe!
The Tatar tribe would never give up, and I don’t know which mountain corner of ice and snow had gone to hide.
When the time is right, they will make a comeback, but the strength of the Ming army is by no means something that a remnant can do. If you force yourself, you will have a dead end.
Therefore, if Tutuobuhua wants to cause some storm, he must use some strategy.
The only one who can support them is the Mongolian tribes in northern Mo.
The three Duoyan guards have now returned to the Onan River and have transformed themselves into Mongolia's orthodox, and have lived a very comfortable life.
If the Tatar tribe runs back at this time, we are the real golden bloodline, and you Duoyan Sanwei are fake!
There is no need for the imperial court to issue an order, and the three guards of Duoyan will definitely cut them with their swords.
What level do you dare to tell me orthodoxy?
I don’t even look at your identity, just a dog that is a loser, what qualifications do you have to speak loudly to me!
In such an environment, only Qiqike can contact the internal forces that can be contacted!
The Mongolian tribes in the north of the desert were civilians left by the Oala tribe and the Tatar tribe. Since the strong men were taken to fight at that time, most of the remaining people were elderly, weak, women and children.
Over the years, Mobeiwei has developed well, and the Ming Dynasty has continued to immigrate to Mobei, and intermarried Mongolian and Han dynasties, and the strength of various tribes has grown a lot.
If Tutuobuhua is preparing to make a comeback, the time is almost ripe.
To be continued...
