770 I miss Shanxi merchants

After Huang Taiji returned to Chenyang, he was locked in the imperial study alone, and no one saw him. The eunuchs and palace maids who served were so anxious that they were like ants on a hot pan, but they did not dare to disturb him. When Bumubutai came over, these people seemed to have seen a savior and hurried forward to report the situation.

"Your Majesty said that he just wants to be quiet, no one can disturb, nor can he bother others. But it's almost a day, and the water has not been in and the rice has not been dipped. What should I do?"

Hearing this, Bumubutai was very surprised, but she knew that the more this time, the less she could not panic. After years of her harem career, she had taught her how to deal with various emergencies.

So she seemed very calm and ordered the eunuch palace maid to say, "Tell your Majesty, just say I'm here and want to see Your Majesty!"

With her coming forward, these eunuchs and palace maids were naturally very happy, as if they had found their backbone and hurriedly reported. But soon, they came back disappointed and shook their heads and said, "Your Majesty said that he just wanted to be quiet and no one would see!"

When Bumubutai heard this, she frowned and her face soon appeared resolutely, and she said decisively: "You get out of here!"

After saying that, she stepped in.

When the eunuchs and palace maids heard this, they became anxious and stopped them and said, "Your Majesty said..."

"If there is something wrong with Your Majesty's health, who can bear this responsibility?" Bumubutai shouted sternly. No one dared to answer the eunuchs and palace maids after hearing this. It was really this responsibility, and none of them could bear it!

Seeing that his words shocked them, Bumubutai calmed down and said in a gentle tone: "After meeting your Majesty, I will say that you have fulfilled your responsibilities. It is my must break in, it is not your business!"

Speaking of this, she stopped talking and immediately walked forward.

The eunuchs and palace maids all smiled bitterly on their faces. Although Bumubutai said that, if Huang Taiji really wanted to pursue it, they would not be able to stand this reason. However, Huang Taiji's health is not good at the moment. If he drags on, they will not be able to bear it if something happens. They have to let her go by default and let her go in.

With a creaking sound, the door of the Yu Study opened. In the evening, the light was already a little dim, but the Yu Study was even darker, and there was no light inside!

"Who asked you to come in?" Huang Taiji suddenly shouted with a tired voice, "Do you really think I am bullied by everyone and will not kill anyone?"

"Your Majesty, it's me!" Bumubutai answered softly, then closed the door, lit a candle, and walked slowly along the sound.

When Huang Taiji heard that it was her, he stopped speaking. Bumubutai did not explain why the eunuchs and palace maids outside did not stop her and ignored it directly.

The light shone, Bumubutai saw Huang Taiji who was slumped on the imperial throne clearly. She was shocked.

I saw that Huang Taiji looked very bad, and he seemed to be much haggard. His confidence and wise temperament were gone. At this moment, he looked like a fat man who was about to die.

Huang Taiji seemed to be indifferent to Bumubutai's arrival and ignored him. It seemed that he really wanted to just be quiet and not communicate with anyone.

Bumubutai quickly came to his senses, and his surprised face quickly disappeared. After her brain turned rapidly, she did not persuade her. She slowly walked to Huang Taiji, squatted down, and then stretched out her hands, pinching Huang Taiji's legs with just the strength. At the same time, she said softly: "Your Majesty, you and my husband are together, your Majesty can be better! Do you have any questions? Let me tell you?"

She first expressed her position on Huang Taiji's side and a community of interests. After hearing this, Huang Taiji finally looked down at her.

Humans are social animals, and communication is a natural need. If you have anything, you cannot keep it in your heart. You must have an object to tell me. This object can be men, women, young and old, relatives and friends, or gods and Buddhas all over the sky, etc.

Huang Taiji had a lot of things and no one could tell him, so he locked himself in the imperial study. At this time, he saw his concubine coming to care about him and reminded her of her identity. It was reasonable to think about it, but after waiting for a while, he spoke slowly.

"I really lost this time, and there is no way to argue or explain. After this battle, the situation facing the Qing Dynasty in the future will be even worse, which is a bit unimaginable!"

When Huang Taiji said this, he looked at Bumubutai's face carefully. Seeing that her face was the same as before, she was still very gentle. She was just listening and did not change color at all. She couldn't help but feel a little better in her heart and continued to speak again.

"Now, thinking about it, I found that this battle has been decided from the beginning that the Qing Dynasty will be defeated! It is said that before the troops move, food and grass will come first. But the Qing Dynasty has food and grass in short supply. Also, knowing oneself and enemy, winning every battle. But the Qing Dynasty knew nothing about the situation of the Ming Dynasty. When did the Ming army have such a powerful army, why did they have so many firearms, and what kind of generals are, all of them are ignorant. These two conditions that determine the victory and defeat have not been met, so how could it be possible to win this battle?"

Huang Taiji said this, and said a lot, as if he had become a little more breathable and a little more energetic, so he sat up, touched Bumubutai's head, and then continued: "After this incident, I really understand. Without those Shanxi merchants, I would have lost food and grass, and the source of the Ming Dynasty news, I would have the current situation. Speaking of which, this year was particularly unhappy, and the reason was that there was no Shanxi merchants!"

Speaking of this, he suddenly sighed and said with regret: "I have thought about solving these two most critical problems. However, our Qing Dynasty is a cold place with scarce supplies. It is impossible to rely on the Qing Dynasty to be self-sufficient!"

Huang Taiji stopped and felt the feeling of being kneaded on his legs. After a while, he continued: "I have actually worked hard on the news about Ming Dynasty. I sent people to the pass, but it was useless. The person sent was not as capable as the Shanxi merchants. Another thing about the Shanxi merchants made Ming Dynasty prepared. With Shanhaiguan and the sea, it was really difficult to deliver the news!"

"By the way, it is also because of these two reasons that our Qing Dynasty cannot obtain enough food and supplies from the prosperous Ming Dynasty. Either have ships or set sail down Shanhaiguan, but the Qing Dynasty does not have these conditions. North Korea has been scraped clean by the neighboring Qing Dynasty, and the grassland tribes are also paupers and there are no supplies at all..."

When he mentioned the grassland, he couldn't help but think of what happened with the Mongolians and couldn't help but sigh again.

There are so many things to do today, and there will be one update, and we should be able to update at least 4 tomorrow.
