Chapter 37 The Miserable Old Maozi

Chapter 37 The miserable old man

Ivanjie failed to enter the legendary palace, nor saw the great Eastern Emperor, and was kicked out like a beggar.

Ivanjie didn't understand why he was thrown out because he was a messenger. Later, Ivanjie begged for food in the suburbs of Beijing for two years and gradually understood why he was thrown out.

It's not that His Majesty the Emperor doesn't want to see Ivanjie, but that he is too poor and too dull to give a gift to the official of the Ministry of Etiquette who is responsible for this matter.

Just because there was no gift, Evanjie's dream was shattered.

Later, Ivanjie returned to the Siberian Khanate, only to find that there was no longer a place for him to live there. He was originally loyal to Tsar Vasily IV, but within a few years of his mission to the Eastern Empire, the great Vasily

The fourth emperor was killed in the war, and after several twists and turns, the young Mikhail Romanov became the new tsar.

Basil IV was killed. No one knew about Ivanje's contribution to the Eastern Empire, and his position as a noble was gone.

Ivanjie was very unwilling, so he led a group of desperadoes to live near the Tula River again and became robbers.

Ivanjie wanted to become a noble again and own his own castle and land, so he came to the banks of the Tula River. Originally, he wanted to go to Zhangjiakou, but he was afraid that he would encounter the same situation again and be treated like garbage again.

Throw it outside.

At first, Ivanjie wanted to get rich as quickly as possible through trade. He found Mongolian and Han caravans to trade, but the results were still disastrous.

Because of his strange appearance, the Mongols regarded Ivanjie as a messenger of the devil and refused to sell anything to him.

There was no trade, no income, and the people Ivanjie brought were hungry and cold. They were at a loss in this strange place.

Finally, two fellow Slavs couldn't bear it anymore and stole a sheep from a tribe.

That day, they had enough to eat, but the price was that the two fellow Slavs were stoned to death by the angry Mongols.

After this incident happened, Evanjie completely took a different path. Since he was not accepted by others, no one wanted to believe him. So he went to rob, and kept robbing.

At first, Ivanjie did not dare to rob too much, so he could only pick a relatively small caravan to attack. However, the result of this was that their harvest was very small, and most of what they robbed was food.

This time, Evange planned to make a big deal, grab enough goods, and then return to Siberia.

It was such a coincidence that Yi Fanjie finally made up his mind to do something big, but ended up running into Tie Mo.

...

Looking at the dejected Yi Fanjie in front of him, Tie Mo didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

When later generations read historical documents, they once saw the name of Ivanjie. During the Wanli period, Ivanjie was envoy to the Ming Dynasty and received a cold reception. There are very few records about Ivanjie, but I did not expect that the real situation was so miserable.

Tie Mo was silent for a long time, and Ivanjie took off his animal skin hat and knelt on the ground, tears streaking down his weathered cheeks.

"You, kill me and let my brothers go! I brought them to this strange place. I hope they can go back alive. We don't want to rob them...but there are not enough supplies.

What are we going to do when we go back?"

"Starve to death on the way, or return to Siberia and continue to suffer from hunger and cold..."

Tie Mo knelt down and looked carefully at the expression on Yifanjie's face. He believed that Yifanjie was not lying. If Yifanjie had the intention of robbing from the beginning, he would not risk his life all the way across the Gobi Desert.

Heading to the unfamiliar capital of the Ming Dynasty.

If those red-bearded horse bandits were not forced by life, they would not leave their homeland and come to the unfamiliar banks of the Tula River to find a way out.

Tie Mo still had a decision in his heart. Killing Ivanjie was easy, but what would he gain?

In Ivanjie, Tie Mo saw a broader road.

"Ivanjie, get up. Do you think robbing caravans has a future?"

Evanjie did not get up, but just raised his head and smiled miserably, "What can we do if we don't rob? We don't even have anything to eat or drink. They treat us as the devil's people. Oh, God... they

How can you think so?"

"Ivanjie, now I will give you another way to go. I will provide you with enough supplies for you to transport back to Siberia and Moscow. However, I need you to exchange for enough good things. Furs, craftsmen, etc., you can do it

Are you there?"

Evanjie stared at the stranger in front of him in disbelief.

"Are you...really willing to barter with us?"

"certainly!"

"Aren't you afraid that I will run away and never look back?"

"I believe you won't leave without ever coming back, and even if you never come back, the most I will lose is some goods!"

"Okay, I promise you! But you have to let my brother go!"

"It's natural!"

At this moment, Chang Minyue finally couldn't bear it anymore, separated from the crowd and rushed over. She pushed Tie Mo hard and clenched her fists with tears in her eyes.

"How could you do this? They just killed many of my men..."

"The person who died was yours, not my brother. It seems that Mr. Tie has no obligation to avenge you, right?"

Tie Mo glanced at Chang Minyue coldly and sneered in his heart. This woman is really self-righteous. Why does she think others should listen to her?

"Niu'er, don't go back with the camel caravan. You stay in Urg first and take Ivanjie to meet Hassler and say that these people are my people."

Han Niuer pointed to his nose inexplicably, but nodded helplessly.

"Brother Tie, I will listen to you. Don't worry, I know what to do!"

Tie Mo nodded happily, called Han Niu'er to him, whispered a few instructions, and then asked him to take Ivanjie's people back to Urg.

Chang Minyue was furious and his eyes were as cold as knives.

Tie Mo didn't care about Chang Minyue's opinion, nor did he care about the conflict between him and Chang Minyue.

The camel team set out again, and the Chang family followed closely.

Aqige also couldn't understand why Tie Mo did this. She asked after she was far away from the Chang family team.

"What do you think? You actually let those robbers who committed murder and set fire go free."

"Haha, you Mongolians often go to our house to harvest grass and grain. Are we not doing business now? Seriously, I can be considered a traitor to the Ming Dynasty now, right?"

Aqige was at a loss for words. Why didn't the Mongolians go to the south in the winter? When it comes to murder and arson, the Mongolians did much more than Ivanjie's people.

"Let me ask you something, did you really kill Bazhuozhi?"

"Yes, do you plan to avenge him?"

Aqige's face turned cold, her little face tensed up for a while, and then she suddenly let out a burst of laughter like silver bells.

"Revenge? I should thank you!"

Thank me?

Tie Mo looked confused. Are you sick?
