Not only Zhu Yili knew that although the third lady's reputation had not reached a household name in the capital, there were many people who knew her.

After all, the "Tonggong Trading" between the Ming Dynasty and Tumote tribe was completed with her active efforts.

You should know that when the third lady got married, it was a period of extreme tension between the Ming Dynasty government and the grassland outside the northwest border.

Before she got married, because Altan Khan of the Tumot tribe did not keep her promise, she deceived the Ming Dynasty's rewards in the name of paying tribute, and at the same time she betrayed her faith and sent troops to plunder the Ming Dynasty's borders.

Therefore, the Ming Dynasty repeatedly rejected Alatan Khan's request for "Tonggong Mutual Market", imposed trade sanctions on Mongolia, and toughly killed the envoy sent by Alatan Khan who was threatening the Ming emperor in the Forbidden City court.

Seeing that the "tributing" was not successful, Alatan Khan was unable to get the urgently needed iron pots and cloths, so he personally led the Mongolian cavalry to the city of Beijing, plundered Changping and other surrounding prefectures, and harassed for eight days.

It is known in history as the "Gengxu Change".

Beijing City was almost lost, but fortunately their aggressive purpose was not to attack the city or seize the throne, but to provide tribute and trade with each other.

Finally, under the control of the treacherous minister Yan Song's party, the Ming government and Altan Khan reached an agreement to open up trade between the two countries in Datong.

However, not long after, Altan Khan went back on his word, betrayed his oath, led his army to attack Datong and other places, and once again provoked the battle.

From 1550 to 1571, during the past twenty years, Alathan Khan went south to plunder year after year, and the people along the Great Wall suffered greatly.

Emperor Jiajing hated this deeply, and historical records that he "had afflicted the enemy and hated the 'barbarians' the most."

Of course, the Mongolian invasion was also stubbornly resisted by the Ming army, which also caused losses to the troops and generals, displaced people, and depressed agricultural and animal husbandry production.

During the many battles between the two sides, many excellent generals such as Ma Fang emerged in the Ming Dynasty, which severely damaged Altan Khan's army several times.

On the other hand, because Alatan Khan once sanctioned the Ming Dynasty, other tribes from the Golden Family were ready to move on to his Khan position.

In this way, the originally profitable plundering of the south and the heavy losses due to the Ming Dynasty's tenacious resistance, which threatened the dominance of Altan Khan, forcing him to re-examine his relationship with the Ming Dynasty.

It was in this tense situation that the third lady married Altan Khan.

Faced with the severe situation of tension, the third lady disagreed with her intelligence and intelligence, and actively advocated reconciliation with the Ming government.

In March 1571, after the unremitting efforts of the Sanniangzi, the two sides finally announced a cession and achieved a mutual trade between Tonggong.

In addition to the San Niangzi, for the Ming government, ministers such as Gao Gong, Zhang Juzheng, Wang Chonggu, Tan Lun, Fang Fengshi, Wu Dui and other ministers in the court played an important role.

Especially Gao Gong, the prime minister at that time, regarded "Tonggong Mutual Market" as one of his major political achievements.

After successfully achieving Tonggong trade with the Ming Dynasty government, the thousands of miles of border areas on the grassland outside the northwest border quickly showed a peaceful, stable and prosperous scene.

The northwest border of the Ming Dynasty thus obtained a stable and peaceful environment for decades.

Therefore, the deeds of the San Niangzi are often regarded as good talk in the capital.

Zeng Chaojie was ordered to persuade her to marry her stepson Huang Taiji, which naturally caused heated discussion again.

I have discussed it once before, but I have expressed my optimism, but the reality is successful.

However, after talking, they didn't know who they would attribute this great credit to.

Did he return to Zeng Chaojie? He went, but he didn't say a word! Who would send him to go? There is no difference.

Did he return to Wu Dui? Then why didn’t he convince the third lady directly, but wanted to go to the capital to ask for instructions and send envoys in one fell swoop? Doesn’t it mean that he doesn’t have enough confidence?

Going to the third lady? She was so smart, but she was willing to lead her troops away at the risk of splitting the Tumote tribe, which shows that she was unwilling to do so! If there were no imperial envoys to go, would she change her mind if there were no Wu Dui?

Is it back to King Lu Zhu Yili? It seems that it is not his turn. If you say yes, you just recommend Zeng Chaojie, but you won’t say a word to recommend Zeng Chaojie!

...

In this regard, Emperor Wanli's imperial edict was sent to various major yamen, which could be seen from it.

Huang Taiji, the great khan of the Tumote tribe, was granted the title of King Shunyi.

The third lady was named Mrs. Zhongshun (this is the second time that she enthroned the same title).

Wu Dui was promoted to the Right Chief of the Imperial Commander (it turned out that he also served as the Right Deputy Imperial Commander. Except for the Left Chief of the Censor, the other positions of the Censorate of the Ming Dynasty were generally held by other officials, which was related to the Censorate of the Censorate of the District on behalf of the Emperor).

Zeng Chaojie was promoted to Bachelor of Secretariat (although he was only promoted one level from Bachelor of Secretariat to Bachelor of Secretariat, but the titles of multiple "bachelor" are very different).

The only reward for Zhu Yiliu was not found in the imperial edict, and there was no mention of it.

But if you think about it carefully, how should you reward it? It is reasonable not to reward it or mention it.

He is Lu Wang, and he is not qualified to intervene, and he is not even qualified to recommend Zeng Chaojie.

If it is like rewarding Wu Dui and Zeng Chaojie, wouldn’t it be necessary to nail him to the iron pillar of “interference in the government affairs”?

...

No matter how much outsiders talk about it, it is different. Fu Dahai is still thinking about the future chief manager of Lu Wang Mansion.

"Prince Lu, this time you recommend Zeng Chaojie to be rewarded. Seeing that they have received rewards, only Prince Lu does not. In fact, you can ask Master Longsheng to take back those who do not receive their salary or supplies..."

"roll."

Before he finished speaking, Zhu Yili rolled his eyes and was about to kick him, "Don't have to raise salary and supplies in the future. Do you want to make it difficult for the emperor brother to do?"

Fu Dahai hurriedly dodged with a look of a dead mother.

It’s hard for Brother Wanli to do it... Of course, this is not what Zhu Yili thought about.

He finally asked for punishment for himself. How long has it been? If Brother Wanli took it back, wouldn’t his efforts be in vain?

Fu Dahai quickly dodged away and said unwillingly: "Prince Lu deserves the reward, this is what Prince Lu should have received!"

"You know what's wrong?" Zhu Yili threatened sternly, "Try saying something more!"

Fu Dahai shut up and felt that his good days were about to end.

Zhu Yiliu ordered: "Go and send some fresh fruits, vegetables and fresh milk to the Li family to see what needs they have in life? Go there once a day, this is your task, don't forget."

When talking about Li Zhiyi, Zhu Yiliu was happy, and Fu Dahai was also happy, so wouldn't he be scolded.

Fu Dahai smiled and said, "Prince Lu, I remember it, I will never forget it. From the perspective of me, Miss Li must like Prince Lu!"

"How can I see it?"

"They have accepted all the gifts we gave to the Li family!"

Zhu Yili glanced at him, "Stupid, do they dare not accept it?"

Fu Dahai murmured: "Yes, they dare not dislike it."

"Get out!" Zhu Yiliu kicked Fu Dahai in the ass while he was not paying attention and scolded, "Things that won't grow."

Fu Dahai ran away in shame, feeling very unconvinced, and muttered: "Where am I not growing? Did you say it wrong?"
