Chapter 466 Death of Longkodo

After Yongzheng returned to the palace, the more he thought about it, the more aggrieved he became, so that his eyes turned dark and his heart felt sweet. It was only after he swallowed several pills that he improved a lot. Writing down a few numbers on the paper relieved my heart a little bit.

"Su Peisheng, give it to Longkodo."

Su Peisheng took the note, but didn't dare to glance at it, put it directly in the box, and immediately exited the palace, but after walking a few steps, he heard another faint voice: "After this matter is over, you Let's go to Shengjing."

Upon hearing this, Su Peisheng immediately knelt down, knocked his head hard on the ground, his blood was bloody after just a few strokes, and wept, "Return to the emperor, if the slave is at fault, he deserves to be beaten to death."

Yongzheng sighed slightly, waved his hand, "You raise your head."

Su Peisheng had to raise his head slightly, but he didn't dare to look at Yongzheng. He only looked at Yongzheng from the corner of his corner of the eye, but his heart skipped a beat when he found that the other person's expression was like a ghost, so he quickly lowered his head.

"Let's go, will the capital be able to keep Du Liang said that after completing this errand, he will go to Shengjing, and maybe he will have a good death in the future."

Su Peisheng didn't dare to speak anymore, so he had to kowtow again, and exited the hall step by step. Just after he exited the hall, a young eunuch saw the blood on Su Peisheng's head and trembled on the spot.

"Grandpa Su, what's the matter? Can I get you some gauze and medicine?"

Su Peisheng also knew that his face was not suitable for going out of the palace, but the emperor's decree could not be delayed, so he said repeatedly: "That's all, just tear a piece of clothes off your body and wrap it up for our family, no one will die. "

The little eunuch immediately realized that Su Peisheng had a purpose, and he didn't dare to delay any longer. He quickly tore off a section of his sleeve, wrapped it up with Su Peisheng, and then helped Su Peisheng out of the palace.

When Su Peisheng arrived at Longkodo's mansion, Longkodo was drinking. When he saw Su Peisheng's appearance, he was startled, but before he asked the specific situation, Su Peisheng had already stood in the main hall, coldly Said: "Master Longkodo does not need to be formal, the emperor has a decree for you."

Long Kedo was startled, and immediately knelt down in front of Su Peisheng, saying bitterly: "Slave Long Kedo, listen to the emperor's will."

"Longkodo, this is the emperor's will for you, see for yourself."

Su Peisheng handed the box to Longkodo with both hands, but when Longkodo took it with both hands, he couldn't help shaking. He was already imagining what it contained, maybe a dagger, or maybe a bottle of poison.

At such a moment, Longkodo thought a lot. He used to always think that those who do great things must be ruthless enough. It didn't fall into his eyes, only the cold-faced prince and fourth son made Longkodo truly feel that the other party was a person who was desperate to do great things.

The road to succession is difficult, how many winds, frosts, snows and rains along the way, how many open swords and dark arrows, the prince fell, the eighth fell, and the fourteenth also fell, only the fourth climbed to the throne in the end, and he Longkodo also fulfilled his wish to have affairs with Prime Minister Ma Qi, a scholar of the University, and was appointed as the first-class official, and was awarded the Minister of the Ministry of Officials. Even Yongzheng called him uncle directly instead of his name.

It can be said that at this point, Longkodo has reached the pinnacle of his life.

It's a pity that this is not the end of the story, and for Longkodo, his future has taken a sharp turn for the worse. First, he was suspected by Emperor Yongzheng because of the eight kings' discussion of politics, and he was eventually imprisoned. Now he is afraid of the treatment of confinement. I can't get it all.

Thinking of those so-called rumors, Longkodo couldn't help laughing at himself.

If you want to add a crime, why do you have no excuses?If Longkodo really wanted to rebel, how could he wait until now?

As for the so-called smuggling of firearms, Goulian City Gate Captain, Long Kedo is also a first-class meritorious service of the imperial court, so does he still need to earn this money?
That's all, Longkodo finally opened the wooden box, and there was a white note inside, with only one sentence written on it.

"You said that you were ill, why didn't you die?"

Su Peisheng also saw the words on the note, and was shocked at once, and was asked by the emperor why he did not die until now?

Why are you still alive?
Longkodo smiled miserably, knelt down and said loudly: "If you go back to the emperor, this servant will die right away!"

On the fourth day of October, the first-class Duke Long Kedu died suddenly in the mansion. Yongzheng sent people to the mansion to express his condolences, and left a gift of 100 taels of silver, which was the final verdict on this courtier.

On the fifth day of October, Yongzheng led an army of 15, officially left the capital, and headed directly towards Baoding Mansion to meet the menacing Second Army of the Fuhan Army.

Some black spots slowly enlarged from the sky, and with the ups and downs of the sea, it seemed that a few leaves were wandering in the water. As the black spots gradually approached, the outline of the ship was slowly revealed, which seemed to be a very powerful fleet , is cutting through the waves and heading towards an unknown distance.

When the fleet is approaching, if someone sees this scene, they will probably cover their mouths. The fleet almost starts from the horizon and covers the entire sea surface. There are nearly 500 ships. Terrifying power.

Among the fleet, a three-masted sailing ship has the logo of the Fuhan Army Navy printed on its sails. It is so huge that under the more than 100 gun positions on both sides of the ship, it conceals the power that can destroy everything.

Qiu Ze was wearing a neat military uniform, standing on the deck, and surrounded by many backbones of the current naval system, everyone looked high-spirited, and everyone was a little more energetic than before, even the military uniform looked so clean and tidy .

"Marshal, the army was always showing off the limelight a while ago, and now our navy can finally show its glory!"

There was a bit of a smile on the face of a naval colonel, but there was a scar on his face, which looked a bit hideous, but everyone around him agreed.

In the current naval system, Qiu Ze, the highest naval admiral, is only a major general, so the ranks of officers under him are not high. Generally speaking, the captain of a capital ship is only a lieutenant colonel, and the captain of a squadron is only It's just a colonel, so the rank of colonel is really not low.

Qiu Ze's expression was always calm, and he said softly: "Yun Fang, our navy has just started, and this battle is still for the army brothers. After Dengzhou, you have to accompany the brothers of the imperial guards to land in Jinzhou. But don’t make any conflicts.”

The naval colonel's name is Deng Yunfang, who was brought together by Qiu Ze from the Lvying navy. He was originally a good hand in boarding battles, so he also made military achievements in the Fuhan army, and basically became a few of Qiu Ze's subordinates. Principal Naval Officer.

Although Deng Yunfang's personality is rough, he admired Qiu Ze so much that he immediately said carelessly: "Of course, my old Deng listens to what the commander-in-chief said. The brother of the imperial guard is also our brother. If there is any problem, I will try my best to solve it." endure."

"Since that's the case, I'm relieved. After arriving in Jinzhou, you don't have to come back first. You can wait for the brothers of the imperial guards at the pier. If the attack is not good, I'm afraid you still have to."

Speaking of this, Qiu Ze shook his head. He is not the kind of person who likes to talk about people behind his back, especially when it comes to topics related to land and sea relations. Just be careful.

Deng Yunfang nodded slightly, and asked curiously: "Commander, why did you go from Jinzhou to attack Shanhaiguan this time? Wouldn't it be better to land inside the pass?"

Qiu Ze has done some research on this issue, and he is willing to share it now, so he said in a low voice: "Since the Qing government occupied Shanhaiguan, the defense on the outside of the pass has been weakened a lot, but the defense on the inside of the pass has been strengthened. Therefore, it will be easier to attack the city from outside the pass.”

Everyone understood it as soon as they heard it. The Qing court had inertial thinking on this matter. They believed that the foundation of the Qing court was in Manchuria, so there was absolutely no danger from outside the pass. On the contrary, if something happened inside the pass, the other party would attack. Shanhaiguan must start from within the pass.

"Hmph, then let's do the opposite this time, and let the Tartars go around without food!"

A look of excitement flashed across Deng Yunfang's face, as if he had already seen the scene of conquering Shanhaiguan. Perhaps for every soldier, that scene would be the best reward.
