In fact, no matter who has the final say in this matter, it will eventually turn out like this.

It is very normal for Sun Chengzong to have this consideration. After all, the main enemy of the Ming Dynasty on the grassland will be Ligdan Khan.

Korchin and Ordos are the people that the Ming Dynasty wants to fight for, and it cannot allow these people to wander around on the grassland.

You have gained a lot of benefits when doing business with the Ming Dynasty, so you have to help at the critical moment. It is a question of choosing one or the other. It is impossible for you to be a fence-sitter.

If the Ming Dynasty and Ligdan Khan go to war, then you will have to make a choice. Just like when Khorchin and Inner Khalkha go to war, Ordos will also have to form an alliance.

Whether it was Ligdan Khan or the Ming Dynasty, they had to deal with these people before going to war.

Lin Danhan could annex them to strengthen his strength; the same could be done for the Ming Dynasty. At the same time, it could also reduce the pressure on the eastern defense line. This was also a good thing for the Ming Dynasty, and it had no choice.

Nurhaci did the same thing in history, forcing the Khorchin and other tribes to join him in fighting against Ligdan Khan. The Jalaid of Inner Khalkha were the most adamant in their opposition, and the two sides engaged in a war. One tribe surrendered, two were destroyed, and the remaining two joined Ligdan Khan, who subsequently annexed them.

After seeing this scene, Korchin decisively admitted his defeat to Nurhaci. Whatever you say is what it is. I can't afford to offend anyone on either side.

Since this incident, the Mongolian tribes would rather surrender to Nurhaci than go to Ligdan Khan. The reason is simple: if I go to Nurhaci, he will treat me well, give me high positions and generous salaries, and we can even marry.

You must know that this marriage is not one-sided, but two-way, and Nurhaci will also marry his daughter off.

Under such circumstances, this was a relatively fair alliance for the Mongolian tribes. Although they were ruled, they were treated well.

If I turn to Ligdan Khan, he will kill me and annex my tribe.

Even if you are the Great Khan of Mongolia and the orthodox one, I would not do such a thing if I am not mentally ill.

The annexation of the other two Inner Khalkha tribes had caused Ligdan Khan to lose the support of his people. It would have been fine if you hadn't offered any benefits or assistance, but you resorted to brutal force? Is this what a Khan should do?

What the Ming Dynasty is doing now is the same as what Nurhaci did, but it did not choose to attack Khorchin and Inner Khalkha, but directly attacked the Ordos alliance, forcing them to express their position first.

Sun Chengzong’s meaning was very clear: as long as you agree, I will support you; if you don’t agree, then there’s no hope.

Hasar didn't know what to say at this moment.

He had no say in this matter. The alliance was a pre-planned plan, and he only needed to preside over it. However, if he wanted to agree to Sun Chengzong's request, his father would have to make the decision. If he agreed, he might not be able to reach an agreement with his father when he returned.

There was another issue: after he returned, he would likely be attacked by others because of this incident, which would be detrimental to his further succession and would also cause dissatisfaction among other tribes.

Those small tribes are not so easy to unify. If those people were not so stubborn and stubborn, they would have been swallowed up long ago.

Sun Chengzong was neither hurried nor slow, and just sat there calmly.

Hasar didn't say anything, so Sun Chengzong picked up the tea and took a sip.

After a while, Hasar still didn't say anything, so Sun Chengzong said, "I heard that you have a niece who was raised by you?"

Hasar didn't expect Sun Chengzong to ask this question, but it was no secret that he had a niece.

This is my younger brother's daughter. My younger brother died early, leaving behind a daughter whom I have been raising by my side. Of course, my younger brother's woman was also raised by his side.

For so many years, he had always treated this niece as his own daughter. This kind of thing was very normal on the Mongolian grasslands, where the son would inherit the father's inheritance. Even Sanniang hadn't escaped it back then.

Hasar said, "I only have one niece, who is already seventeen years old this year. Logically, she should have been married a long time ago. But I couldn't bear to let her go all these years, so I kept her by my side until she became this old."

"What does she look like?" Sun Chengzong asked calmly again.

"That's great, of course." Hasar seemed to realize something and said hesitantly.

In fact, Hasar had already guessed what Sun Chengzong was thinking.

Does he want to give his niece to the emperor of the Ming Dynasty?

This was actually a good thing. If the marriage was successful, his status would be greatly enhanced. With the support of the Ming Dynasty, this alliance would be a sure thing. In the end, he could even annex those small tribes and become the third most powerful force on the grassland, directly competing with Inner Kharko and Khorchin.

But there are two difficulties in this matter. One is what I just mentioned, and the other is that I am reluctant to part with my niece.

Khasar had three sons but no daughters, so this niece had always been raised as his own daughter. Under such circumstances, Khasar was reluctant to marry her off to the Ming Dynasty, and even to the complicated Ming Dynasty palace.

Sun Chengzong nodded and didn't continue talking about this matter.

Just click on it, and don't worry about the rest. Besides, His Majesty hasn't said anything yet, what if His Majesty doesn't want to?

This matter will be discussed with His Majesty later, but Sun Chengzong believes that he can convince His Majesty. After all, there are only advantages and no disadvantages in this matter. It is nothing more than sending a woman to the harem.
