Chapter 111 Aisin Gioro

On the city wall of Shuntian Mansion, Zhu Di stood above, followed by Zhu Zhanji and Zhu Zhanyong. In the direction they were looking, there was a team of about 500 people heading towards the city gate of Shuntian Mansion.

Zhu Zhanyong asked curiously: "The clothes and grooming of people like Grandpa Huang are really strange. Why do they have braids? It looks like they are bald in the front."

"These people are the Jurchens from Jianzhou. Their clothes are rather strange. Emperor Taizu allowed them to be unconquerable, which shows the Ming Dynasty's tolerance for all ethnic groups." Zhu Zhanji answered his question.

"But it's too ugly."

"Don't say it in person, save some face for others."

Zhu Di held the secret report from Yao Guangxiao in his hand, stared at the group of Jurchens who were preparing to enter the city with eyes like falcons, and said in a bad tone: "If the Jurchen tribe in Jianzhou does not know what is good, I will go on an expedition next year and destroy them by the way."

Since the founding of the People's Republic of China, Emperor Taizu has shown great tolerance to all foreign races. Although the blue jade has reached the fishing sea, the Ming Dynasty has just been established at that time, and the domestic people's livelihood needs to be developed. In order to reduce wars, Taizu

The emperor was kind to the Jurchens, Koreans and even the descendants of the Mongolian and Yuan Dynasties.

With a kind of generosity and benevolence that has never been seen before or since, they were accepted and settled. The treatment given to them by the Ming government was even much higher than the treatment given to the local Han people. There is a saying: "The Ming benefited those who belonged to the barbarians in order to establish the state."

Jurchens are considered the most generous."

Because the biggest enemies of the Ming Dynasty at that time were the descendants of the Mongolian Yuan Dynasty, although the Jianzhou Jurchens were also in the north, they were generally honest, so the markets were open to them in the Ming Dynasty, and they were also allowed to trade with North Korea.

The year has been going well.

After the establishment of Jianzhouwei, North Korea believed that the Ming Dynasty was restricting its northward development. In order to resist the Jurchens' return to the Ming Dynasty, they closed the Qingyuan market trade, which aroused the Jurchens' resentment. In 1406 (the fourth year of Yongle), the Jurchens "entered Qingyuan"

"Plundering the border", and was repulsed by the North Korean army.

In the end, it was the Ming Dynasty that mediated.

But those who are not from our tribe must have different minds. Now they have captured Jurchen spies in Yingtian Mansion, and there are a lot of them. They have joined forces with Japanese spies. What is their plan?

After receiving the secret report, Zhu Di ordered someone to send a message to Jianzhou Jurchen, and ordered their leader, Meng Ge Timur, to come to see him.

Different from the three guards of Wuliangha, this time they did not send troops to investigate the truth, but directly ordered them to come to see it, because the Jurchen tribe in Jianzhou is not strong enough now, and is far from being able to compare with the three guards of Wuliangha.

He was even held down and beaten by North Korea.

National diplomacy, the policy towards these foreign nations is to fight against the strong and support the weak, attack those who take the lead, and help those who are weak.

Keep the conflicts among many countries and cannot let them unify, otherwise they will invade our borders.

Mengge Timur had a pair of falcon-like eyes, a calm man, and wore a flower feather on his head decorated with peacock feathers. In the eyes of Ming Dynasty people, this dress was weird and ugly.

All the hundreds of cavalrymen stayed outside the city, and only Meng Brother Timur entered Shuntian Mansion with two of his cronies.

He was greeted by Zhu Gaoxu, King of Han Dynasty.

Seeing the King of Han, Timur, the fierce brother, hurried forward and saluted: "Your Majesty the King of Han."

"The commander-in-chief of the capital is exempt from courtesy." Meng brother Timur was appointed as the commander-in-chief of the capital of Jianzhou and he was also an official in the Ming Dynasty.

Meng brother Timur took out a small jade Ruyi from his wide sleeve and quietly handed it to Prince Han.

Prince Han is not the kind of person to be polite, so he naturally accepts everyone who comes.

"Prince Han, I wonder why His Majesty the Emperor has summoned you?"

The holder had short hands, but Zhu Gaoxu just laughed twice: "Of course there is something to do when Your Majesty summons you. As for what it is, you will have to wait until you see His Majesty to find out."

In the emperor's palace, Zhu Di was sitting high on the throne, and Timur, the fierce brother, knelt on his knees and shouted respectfully: "Long live long live the Ming Emperor."

When it comes to rituals, Jianzhou Jurchens are the only one in the group. Compared to other forces, their slavery is the most stringent.

Seeing that Zhu Di didn't look good, Meng Brother Timur hurriedly said: "I heard that His Majesty the Great Emperor captured Mahamu's youngest son a few days ago. His Majesty the Great Emperor is unparalleled in martial arts and is powerful throughout the country."

Just listen to these flattery words and you'll be fine.

"Timur, has the Jianzhou tribe's trade been going smoothly recently? It's a cold winter today, will the food and clothing of the people be enough?"

Meng brother Timur was flattered: "Thanks to His Majesty the Great Emperor's concern, the trade between Jianzhou and the customs is smooth, and the goods from the Ming Dynasty are excellent. All the people in Jianzhou often say that His Majesty is wise."

"On the border between Jianzhou, Ulangha Sanwei and North Korea, has there been any friction recently?"

"Reporting to Your Majesty, in compliance with His Majesty's will, all of us will abide by the boundaries set by Your Majesty and dare not trespass in the slightest."

Zhu Di nodded with satisfaction. At least Meng Brother Timur was extremely respectful. He greeted him for a while and asked some questions about the people's livelihood and development in Jianzhou to show his concern. Officials will naturally report the specific situation, but just to see Brother Meng.

Timur's attitude.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Zhu Di took out the secret report and asked the eunuch next to him to read it in detail.

"What?" Meng Brother Timur's face was full of shock after hearing the secret report.

Zhu Di sighed: "I had a military parade in the imperial city before this trip, but I didn't expect to catch spies. I thought they were Japanese spies, but I didn't expect that some of them were confessed to be from your Jianzhou people. Meng brother Timur is this

What's going on?"

Timur, the fierce brother, immediately grabbed the ground with his head and said with full of grievance: "Your Majesty, I don't know about this."

"The spies have been buried in Yingtian Mansion for more than a day or two. It seems that they have detailed plans and sufficient backup forces. The people behind them are ambitious and have been planning for a long time. If it hadn't been exposed this time, we don't know what would have happened."

"Your Majesty, are you really from Jianzhou? Someone else must have deliberately framed you."

The King of Han spoke: "Multiple confessions have been confirmed, and one of them identified the leader of the Zhechen tribe."

"I will definitely investigate this matter when I get back."

"Check it out? We have all the witnesses and physical evidence. Do we need to check it out? The leader of the Zhechen tribe, Abuhan Zhuoyue, is your brother with a different surname if I remember correctly. Isn't it possible that you were not involved in this matter?" King Han seemed to have forgotten it and put it away.

People's jade is as desired.

Instructed by Zhu Di's eyes, Zhu Zhanji spoke: "The Japanese sent spies to disturb the Ming Dynasty, and the Jurchens also wanted to join in the fun. It seems that our Ming Dynasty is too kind, and everyone wants to give it a try."

"Your Highness Taisun, Your Highness the King of Han, please do not misunderstand us. We have absolutely no intention of doing this. This must be a frame-up by a traitor. Your Majesty, please do not believe it."

Zhu Zhanyang did not relent: "Your Majesty, Jianzhou covets our dynasty and sends spies to disturb it. His intentions and actions are worthy of punishment. I hope that your Majesty will send troops to follow me to suppress it."

Meng brother Timur hurriedly retorted: "Your Majesty, these spies are definitely not arranged by my subordinates. They must be deliberately wronged. I hope your Majesty will learn from it."

"How can you gain trust by talking nonsense?"

"Your Majesty, can you hand over the list of spies to me? When I return to Jianzhou, I will do my best to trace it and give you and your Highnesses a satisfactory answer. If it is really Abuhan Zhuoyue, let alone sworn brothers, even if they are blood brothers, I will

I won’t keep him.”

At this time, the emperor came out to smooth things over: "Don't be anxious, Zhanji. Timur has always been very polite. Jianzhou and the Ming Dynasty are as close as brothers. I don't believe this is Timur's doing."

"Grandpa Huang, these people intend to assassinate you. Their intentions are worthy of death, and their crimes deserve to be punished. If they are not punished, there will be endless troubles."

At this time, Prince Han seemed to have remembered that he had accepted the jade Ruyi, and came out to say to Timur: "All the commanders have been respectful to the Ming Dynasty for so many years. I would not believe it if he said it was him."

Meng brother Timur felt a little relieved, and finally someone spoke to him.

Zhu Di thought deeply for a while: "Well, it's hard for you, Meng Brother Timur, to rest for two days and then go back to Jianzhou. I'll give you two months to find out who ordered the spy.

Who contacted Japan and how? Let me find out."

"Yes." Timur, the fierce brother, agreed immediately.

"Stand up first, don't kneel." At this time, Zhu Di asked Timur to stand up.

As if the tense situation just now had not happened, Zhu Di turned to talk about other things: "I heard that the people in Jianzhou are in great demand for cotton now, and I am going to order the warehouse of Shuntian Prefecture to send some."

"On behalf of the people of Jianzhou, I would like to thank His Majesty the Great Emperor."

"You are now the commander-in-chief of Jianzhou. You must think more about the people. It is not easy for so many people to live and work in peace and contentment. If anyone in North Korea dares to close trade again, please send someone to tell me."

"My lord, I understand."

Suddenly the atmosphere became harmonious. Zhu Di asked all about Jianzhou's people's livelihood, and also made insinuations. Jianzhou has developed well in the past two years. His fierce brother Timur must cherish his current wealth and not get angry.

Other thoughts.

Although Zhu Di still believes that the spy matter is inseparable from the fierce brother Timur, he does not intend to take action against the Jurchens in Jianzhou now, because the current Jianzhou is at least very obedient on the surface and is also weak.

The principle of hoeing the strong and supporting the weak means that the weak must be helped. Jianzhou is surrounded by strong enemies. The space for development is limited, the number of people is limited, and the current threat is small.

In Zhu Di's eyes, the Jurchen tribe in Jianzhou is just a small tribe. There is no need for such a small tribe to go to war against them, and even support them as a barrier against Wu Liangha and Wala.

But Meng Brother Timur himself also knew that if the spy incident was not investigated and brought to a satisfactory conclusion for Zhu Di, I am afraid it would not go away so easily.

"By the way, Brother Meng Timur, what's your last name?"

"It's Aisin Gioro, Your Majesty."

"What does it mean?"

"Your Majesty, Aixin means gold, and Jueluo is the name of the clan."

"Gold is very good. The black soil in the northeast is fertile. As long as you work hard and produce food, I intend to promote trade and exchange supplies with the customs. In the future, the land will be filled with gold."

"Your Majesty is considerate of the people's sentiments and always considers the people of Jianzhou, which makes me ashamed."

While a few people were chatting, another group of people entered Shuntian Mansion from outside the city. Their clothes were somewhat similar to Meng Brother Timur's, but they also had the style of the Ming Dynasty.

The leading people entered the city and rushed quickly to Zhu Di's palace.

"Your Majesty, Li Xianzhong, commander of the Jianzhou Right Guards, has arrived."
