Chapter 1423 Let's go to the Rakshasa Kingdom!
On the banks of the Songhua River, in Huining City, the Yamen of the Heilongjiang Duhufu.
In the study of Obao, the Protector of Heilongjiang, there are two people staring at each other and sighing together. Today, a rare visitor came to Huining City, coming from Jianzhou City on the edge of Xingkai Lake.
Jin Yuele, the protector of Anton, came here. Jin Lele came in plain clothes and quietly. When he arrived at Huining City, he went directly into the governor's mansion of Aobai, hardly disturbing anyone.
It was quiet inside the room, except for the faint sound of paper shaking.
What Obai and Yue Le were holding were "chicken-feather letters" sent by the Imperial Guards House of Heilongjiang and the Imperial Guards House of Anton - of course there were quite a few of them from the two Imperial Guards Houses.
After they learned that the real purpose of the "Fake Shunzhi Incident" was to attack their master, they immediately sent a speedboat out to sea (they were afraid of being intercepted by land) and took the waterway to Vladivostok.
Because the content in the letter was so scary that characters like Obai and Yue Le were so frightened that they could only tremble!
After shaking until the end, the elderly Ao Bai sighed deeply, threw the letter on the table, and covered his face with a pair of hands full of age spots, "The imperial court is going to cut down the vassal... The prince is going to do it again."
To achieve meritorious service and establish prestige, if these two things are put together, they will have to find weak persimmons among the vassals... They dare not trouble Li Dingguo, Ai Nengqi, and Liu Wenxiu. The three vassals of Lao Zhu's family
(Anbei, Beiting, Xiyang) and the three vassals of the Wu family and the Zheng family are their own, so they are embarrassed to take action. Daning, Beiping, Shuofang, Liangchuan, and Xining have always been respectful, and Shizhou,
Guizhou is even less worth mentioning. The only ones left are the two of us...
But can’t the old Zhu family imitate the old Zhao family and release their military power over a glass of wine?”
Hearing Oboi's lamentation, Yue Le felt so sad that he almost shed tears. However, he knew why he and Obai could not be relieved of their military power by drinking wine, so he sighed and said: "Old Protector.
, what have we done over the years, how come you have forgotten it? Release military power over a glass of wine... Do you dare to hand over military power?
In recent years, in order to compete for the Horqin Grassland and the Xing'anling Mountains, we have often had conflicts with the Chahar Khanate and the Daning Army. In order to attack the Chahar Khanate, we have also colluded with the Rakshasa Kingdom and pretended to be Rakshasa soldiers.
, and even hired many white people to pretend to be Cossacks and red hats from the Rakshasa Kingdom... In the past few years, half of the bad wars between the two khanates of Chahar and Tumote and the Rakshasa people were done by us on behalf of the Rakshasa people.
We were beaten by people, and the remaining half were Rakshasa people who took the blame for us and were avenged by Chahar and Tumote!
In addition, weren’t we the remnants of the Mongolian Khalkha Tribe and the Horqin Tribe who caused trouble on the Horqin Grassland? They burned, killed, and looted in recent years, but Huang Chuangzi was so angry that he reported it to the court.
How cunning we are!"
Ao Bai slapped his forehead. He was really stupid. He really thought of himself as a harmless and innocent warlord... He was simply a bastard who had connections with foreign countries, killed people and set fires, amassed private soldiers, and did all kinds of evil.
Warlord!
Of course, Oboi and Yue Le did not do so many bad things for no reason. Although their natures are bad, they would not do unprofitable bad things.
However, in recent years, the local capitalism in Daming Province has developed so vigorously that it has affected the powerful vassals in the northern border...
As capitalism flourishes in the south, the rich are in trouble! Fur, Dongzhu, and ginseng are all in short supply.
A large number of large-scale farms have emerged in the Central Plains and Liaoyang, all of which require mules and horses for plowing and transportation. Although these farms can also raise their own horses and mules, the cost is ultimately not as high as that of mules and horses produced in the northern grasslands.
In addition, people in the Central Plains, Liaoyang, and Southeast China who became wealthy began to consume large amounts of beef, mutton, cowhide, and sheepskin, which further stimulated the animal husbandry of Horqin Grassland.
The Horqin grassland is so plump, and cattle, sheep, mules, and horses can be raised without any cost. The Horqin tribe that originally occupied the area was driven away. Who wouldn't be tempted by such a large piece of fertile grassland?
As for the fur and ginseng produced in the Xing'anling mountains, they are even more valuable!
Money and silk are so attractive, how can there not be competition for them?
Therefore, the Shanxi merchant consortium, which colluded with the third prince Zhu, approached Huang Degong of the Chahar Khanate and the Daning Army and asked them to come forward to compete for the interests of the Xing'an Mountains and the Horqin Grassland.
The group of Shanxi merchants competing with Prince Zhu San was the merchant gang headed by Jia BuSi. This group had a close relationship with the towns of Heilongjiang and Andong. Ao Bai and Yue Le were lured by them.
, fell into the water and became bad guys - of course, they were quite bad to begin with, and there were a bunch of Manchu nephews down there who wanted to eat, drink and spend their time...
In short, in recent years, Obai and Yue Le brought a group of nephews and hired many wandering Mongols, Rakshasa, and Cossacks to fight with the Chahar, Tumote, and Daning armies.
Of course, neither side can quarrel with each other. If they quarrel with each other, it will be a civil war!
So Obai and Yue Le began to connect with foreign countries, colluding with the Rakshasa people in Nerchinsk City and Yakutsk, and also pocketed the remnants of the Khalkha Tribe and the Horqin Tribe. Let the Rakshasa people
, the three Khalkha tribes and the Horqin tribe took the blame and charged into battle...
Ao Bai patted his forehead, suddenly remembered something, and said to Yue Le: "The deputy protector (Yue Le is not the official protector, the official protector is Ajige's son Zhu Hehuan, but Zhu Hehuan is still responding)
Tianshu studies, so the power is in the hands of Yue Le), we have paid a lot of tribute to Concubine Ning, and we have given no less than one hundred thousand taels of silver every year...Can't she say a few words for us?
"
"What are you talking about?" Yue Le breathed out, "She is just a mud bodhisattva. She can't even protect herself... I asked the messenger who entered the memorial hall. As soon as the fake Shunzhi appeared, Concubine Ning fell out of favor.
It is said that he has been placed under house arrest and is waiting to be abolished."
Of course Concubine Ning Ajige will be implicated in the fake Shunzhi incident! And because of her son Zhu Hehuan, she has always had a close relationship with Anton and Heilongjiang towns. She is also a character who dares to take money and speak out.
Nian has always taken money from Anton and Heilongjiang towns (her son is the lord of Anton, so it is not illegal to take money from the accounts of Anton Town), and she has also spoken for Ao Bai and Yue Le. Now Zhu Cixiang has to deal with
If Ao Bai and Yue Le take action, of course she will be implicated.
So the day after she identified the fake Shunzhi, she was put under house arrest in Yanshan Palace (Zhu Cixi's palace). Concubine Ning's title was about to be lost, so she was waiting for Zhu Anu (Fan Anu) to get married.
Later, he went to take over as a slave.
Of course, Oboi and Yue Le didn't know about the "deep love between master and slave", and they were not that well-informed.
"What?" Ao Bai took a breath, "Even Concubine Ning can't be saved? What can we do? If we hand over our military power and go to Yingtian Mansion, wouldn't it be..."
Yue Le made a beheading gesture, "Sooner or later, your head will be lost!"
"What, what should I do?" Ao Bai was getting older and was used to living a wealthy life. He had long lost the spirit of his youth and had lost all attention.
Yue Le was much more promising than him. He gritted his teeth, stamped his feet, and said coldly: "The Thirty-six Stratagems are best... We can go!"
"Go?" Obai was stunned, "Where are we going?"
Yue Le gritted his teeth and said, "Go and join the Rakshasa Kingdom!"
"Design to the Rakshasa Kingdom?" Obai frowned and thought for a long time, "Can't we fight the Ming army here in Heilongjiang?"
Yue Le shook his head: "According to the report from Jinzouyuan, we are the only ones implicated in the counter-case... Moreover, Emperor Zhu has already sent the prince north to supervise the army!"
Yue Le paused and then said: "This is to buy our children with official titles! The prince is the future emperor of the Ming Dynasty. He wants to recruit warriors from Heilongjiang and Anton. How many people will follow us? We
