Zhu Cilang looked at Wu Sangui and felt funny.

As the saying goes, knowing people but not their hearts. When you don’t know what a person thinks in his heart, how to deal with this person is a brain-intensive problem.

But Zhu Cilang is different. He has long known what kind of person Wu Sangui is through the information transmitted through the system and his original historical knowledge.

A person's thoughts will definitely be revealed through actions. When Wu Sangui's entire life movement trajectory has been fully understood by Zhu Cilang, it is an easy thing for Zhu Cilang to notice Wu Sangui's thoughts.

Zhu Cixuan said calmly: "Shangshu Wu, have you forgotten the letter you asked you to write before? I will tell you this. As long as the letter can be delivered to Haoge, even if we don't release a soldier in Shanhaiguan, Jiannu will be unable to send troops because of the civil strife."

The letter in Haoge's hand was secretly delivered by the messenger of the East Factory, and was not intercepted by Haoge.

However, this letter is indeed written by Wu Sangui.

This is also one of the conditions for Wu Sangui to be free, and he cooperates with Zhu Cilang to carry out a divisive activity.

When Wu Sangui heard this, his brows pounded clearly, but soon became calm again.

Wu Sangui was not stupid either. He certainly considered this matter before he spoke.

Wu Sangui said calmly: "Your Highness's plan of disagreement is too direct. Whether it is Jiannu or the Ming Dynasty, everyone knows that Haoge and Dorgon are in a desperate situation because of their competition for the throne. In this case, Haoge sent out his letter, and those ministers of Jiannu would not believe it.

What's more, Dorgon is now the strongest among Jiannu, and the support of Empress Dowager Jiannu Da Yuer. Haoge is not even a prince, just an ordinary bell. What will he use to compete with Dorgon?"

Wu Sangui's analysis is actually very simple. He just thinks that this plan of disagreement cannot be successful.

Through the relationship between his uncle Zu Dashou, Wu Sangui actually knew that Dorgon had always strongly advocated going south.

Since the plan of disagreement cannot be successful, it is very likely to push the Qing Dynasty to go south with Dorgon's strength.

When the Qing Dynasty went south, Shanhaiguan had to guard it, and enough troops had to be sent to guard it. This is Wu Sangui's entire logic, at least in his own opinion.

After listening to Wu Sangui's words, Chongzhen on the side began to shake.

From the beginning, Chongzhen was actually not optimistic about Zhu Cilang's plan of disagreement.

As Wu Sangui said, Chongzhen felt that this plan of disagreement was too simple and too obvious, and it was easily seen through.

Since it will be seen through, how can it work?

Chongzhen hesitated and said, "Otherwise, I'll send three or five thousand troops to Shanhaiguan to set up defense."

When a decision maker is in a dilemma among two choices, he will subconsciously want to choose a more compromised strategy.

The main force went south and the small-scale division headed north to guard Shanhaiguan, which was undoubtedly a compromise strategy.

But will Zhu Ciyang agree?

Of course the answer is no.

Zhu Cilang said, "Father, the reason why Shanhaiguan was important back then was because it was part of the Guanning Jin defense line. Now Jinzhou and Ningyuan have both fallen into the hands of Jiannu. It is completely impossible for a mere Shanhaiguan to stop Jiannu. It is meaningless to continue to send troops to hold on there.

What the Ming Dynasty needs now is to gather all its troops and horses, give Li Zicheng from the south a fatal blow, and open up connections with Jiangnan, which is the top priority!

Moreover, the son-in-law has already said that Jiannu will definitely not go south, so there is no need to send troops to Shanhaiguan at all. That will only waste our precious troops that are not much!"

Wu Sangui sneered: "Your Highness, everyone will say it, but you have to come up with evidence! If Jiannu could be mobilized so easily by us because of a letter and had internal conflicts, then the Ming Dynasty would have destroyed Jiannu long ago!"

At this point, Wu Sangui also knew very well that the contradiction between him and Zhu Cixuan was irreconcilable in this matter.

So Wu Sangui also took the initiative to slap Zhu Cilang in the face in public on this matter.

Anyway, Chongzhen is still young now, and Zhu Cilang will take twenty or thirty years to succeed to the throne. At this time, Wu Sangui doesn't need to worry about Zhu Cilang's revenge in the future.

To put it bluntly, if Wu Sangui really gained power, it would be a big question whether Zhu Cixuan could inherit the throne in the future. How could Wu Sangui be afraid?

At this moment, a report suddenly came from outside the hall.

"The East Factory Admiral Fang Gongqian has an urgent matter to meet him!"

When everyone heard the sound, they turned their heads and saw Fang Gongqian rushing in like lightning, and then instantly took out a letter.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, the Great Belehauer of Jiannu - I've replied!"

After Fang Gongqian finished speaking, the expressions of the people present changed immediately.

Everyone is actually very clear about Zhu Cilang's plan of disagreement, which is to use Haoge as a starting point to alienate the two auxiliary kings of Jirgalang and Dorgon, thereby provoking internal strife between the Qing Dynasty and creating chaos.

Now Haoge actually replied, doesn't this mean...

Zhu Cixuan's strategy succeeded?

Chongzhen was anxious and immediately asked Fang Gongqian to submit the letter and couldn't wait to open it and read it.

The Manchu Qing Dynasty used Manchu language, but the high-level officials of the Manchu Qing Dynasty were basically familiar with both Han and Manchu languages, and this letter was written in Chinese characters.

As he looked, Chongzhen's face instantly turned dark and he smiled.

Wu Sangui began to have some bad premonitions when he saw this scene.

Finally, Chongzhen put down the letter and said to the ministers who were looking forward to it: "Your family, Haoge said that he is very grateful to our Ming Dynasty for his help. Now Dorgon has been forced by Jirgalang and other ministers for this letter, and he has to start an investigation and prove his innocence. Haoge will continue to join forces with Jirgalang and others to cause trouble for Dorgon, strive to weaken his power, and even kill Dorgon!"

After hearing Chongzhen's words, all the ministers present were shocked.

Although I don’t know what happened in the Qing Dynasty’s political arena, I can hear from the words described by Chongzhen alone that this plan of disagreement achieved a complete success!

Zhu Cixuan smiled and his eyes fell on Wu Sangui: "Shangshu Wu, what else do you have to say now?"

This result was actually within Zhu Cilang's expectations.

Wu Sangui's uncle Zu Dashou did serve within the Qing Dynasty, but Zu Dashou was a Han man and a surrendered general of the Han man. It was impossible for the Qing Dynasty to believe Zu Dashou from the bottom of his heart.

In layman's terms, Zu Dashou is at best a department manager poached from his competitors. How could he know the true inside story of the intrigue between several major shareholders on the board of directors?

However, Zu Dashou doesn’t understand, Zhu Ciyang understands it!

Listening to Zhu Cilang's words, Wu Sangui's face looked extremely ugly.

Wu Sangui never expected that this slap in the face would come so quickly!
