In the imperial study room of the imperial city, Emperor Chongzhen was like an ant on a hot pot, the excitement and apprehension in his heart intersected, holding the Huang Taiji's discussion and documents in his hand, and striding anxiously with his arms, making all the eunuchs and palace maids dazzled one by one.
Chongzhen strictly decreed, no matter who it is today, even if the king of heaven Laozi comes, he will never be seen, Sun Chengzong Lu Xiangsheng, as well as the Ministry of Household Rites or some important courtiers, with their own urgent purpose several times to see, he was resolutely blocked out of the door, but he alone issued a secret decree to meet Honglu Temple Qing Wang Youren.
The reason why he was summoned, because Chongzhen's mood at this time was complicated, complicated to the extent that it could not be overstated, just now Honglu Temple transferred the peace document, in this collegial document, Huang Taiji made the biggest concession to the first point, remove the country name, remove the emperor name, implore Chongzhen to seal himself as the king of Liaodong, pay tribute to the minister, and he will send his third son into Beijing as a hostage, and swear never to betray.
The reciprocal condition is that the two sides are bounded by the current line of fire, and the area north of the east is under the jurisdiction of the king of Liaodong, Huang Taiji, and the dynasty shall not send any officials to stay, as the vassal king, Huang Taiji will pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty every year, Liaodong specialties, ginseng, deer antler velvet, mink skin, Dongzhu, etc., as a return, the dynasty should give the king of Liaodong an annual reward, 2 million taels of silver, 2 million horses of silk, 2 million stones of pig iron, and various other materials and so on.
Third, both sides punish each of the culprits who started the war.
The Ming Dynasty handed over Lu Hanqiang, Lu Xiangsheng, Wang Dazhuang, Chen Liang, Xu Jie, and so on.
And the king of Liaodong also handed over the three banner masters of Dudu, Suke Saha, and Yangguli, as well as the following generals.
This peace condition is quite fair in Chongzhen's opinion, and at the same time, now that the army has come to the city, he Huang Taiji can still put forward such a low condition, which shows how sincere Huang Taiji's heart is to negotiate peace.
In fact, the war between the Huang Taiji family and the Ming Dynasty has been fought for decades, the Ming Dynasty has suffered countless losses, defeats again and again, just for this protracted war, almost dragged the entire Ming Empire into collapse and annihilation, although in recent years under the efforts of Lu Hanqiang, the Ming Dynasty has moved towards Zhongxing, but it is still dragged down by this war, in Chongzhen's ideology, if the money invested in this war is now invested in the country, and then invested in the country, the Ming Dynasty has long been Heyan Haiqing.
There is another point, which is also Emperor Chongzhen's deep regret and resentment, that is, the rise of Lu Hanqiang, in Chongzhen's logic, the rise of Lu Hanqiang is directly related to the Liaodong War, if there is no Liaodong War, Lu Hanqiang can not grasp the military power, he can only be a powerless minister, no matter how he tosses, he has to work hard for himself in vain, and as long as he doesn't need him one day, as long as he sends a holy decree, he can completely let the female Lu Hanqiang enter the land of no return, Why should there be such a situation, a tiger has been cultivated, and a tiger has always been eyeing the imperial power Everything is this damn Liaodong War, this war should have ended a long time ago.
This time, Huang Taiji was able to bow down and be willing to negotiate peace, and he achieved his goal, which can be described as a great luck in the world, and it is just right to use this method to deprive Lu Hanqiang of his military power, completely eradicate all the forces of Lu Hanqiang, and make the world speechless.
Now, in Chongzhen's heart, the word peace has been ringing again and again, and in his opinion, as long as peace is discussed, all contradictions will be solved.
Although Chongzhen has such a thought, but at this time, this sentence cannot come out of his mouth anyway, because the previous dynasties in the history of the Central Plains of the Ming Dynasty are different, and this is the most bloody dynasty.
This dynasty can accept and tolerate rebellion, and can allow those rebellious rogues to accept Zhao'an to surrender, because in the hearts of all the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, there is still a deep-rooted peasant complex, in their hearts, these people no matter how they rebel, after all, they are the people of the Ming Dynasty, as long as they lay down their arms and surrender, they are still the subjects of the Ming Dynasty. didn't share the hatred of the sky, but in the end, Chongzhen just made an edict against himself, and then these murderers who dug up the ancestral grave, when they begged to surrender, Chongzhen also gladly accepted it.
However, the emperors of the Ming Dynasty showed iron-blooded and unyielding to foreign enemies.
Not to mention that the Ming Empire created a precedent for the Son of Heaven to guard the country, that is, when the Tumubao Change, Emperor Yingzong was captured, and the Mongolian Wara Rong came to blackmail the Ming Dynasty and let the Ming Dynasty pay taxes and become vassals.
When the Wara army hit the city of Beijing, Yu Qian, the head of the Ming Dynasty, personally put on the battle, gathered 220,000 soldiers and civilians, lined up the nine gates of the Beijing Division, the people of the city, and the whole family went into battle, and finally defeated the Wara coalition army, and then launched a decisive counterattack, even if Wara tied Emperor Yingzong in the big array as a shield, but still could not stop the advance of the army.
With such an iron-blooded bloodline, if Chongzhen agrees to negotiate peace with the Manchu Qing at this time, then he will create the worst precedent for the ancestors of the Ming Dynasty, no matter what brilliant achievements he will achieve before and in the future, infamous through the ages, he is determined by this pot.
Since he didn't want to carry this crime, he had to find someone to carry it, so he fell in love with Wang Youren, the secretary of Honglu Temple.
Wang Youren is a hardcore Donglin Party member, usually good at speaking, always making unconventional theories, which can be regarded as the essence of the Donglin Party's opposition for the sake of opposition, to the extreme, that is to say, in terms of overall effect, he is the third big mouth of the Ming Dynasty after Yuan Chonghuan Yang He.
Big mouths also have the advantage of big mouths, that is, they all have a group of supporters who have been brainwashed by him, so this Wang Youren has quite a group of supporters in the court.
The most important thing is that this kid has a criminal record, and since the day he became an official, he has had many objections to this Liaodong War, and sometimes the rhetoric is fierce to the extent of fighting with others.
But at that time, his remarks were not accepted by everyone, and for this reason, he often lamented that Huaicai did not meet the country, and he was drunk all over the world.
Okay, this is the opportunity, then it's up to you to bring this up, and then I'll do a good job. met with Wang Youren, the secretary of the Honglu Temple, and had to comfort him with gentle words, and then Chongzhen proposed the matter of the Manchu Qing Dynasty coming to negotiate peace, and asked for the opinion of the Honglu Temple. t1706231537:
