Emperor Yongzheng

Chapter 89: The general with thousands of cavalry triumphantly sheds tears and the weak girl weeps
Yongzheng was also shocked, but then he regained his composure, staring at Yundao: "Lao Ba, what's the matter with you? This is a matter of discussion, isn't it angry!" He stood up and paced for a long time. , then slowly said: "Now I have a bad reputation. I am a 'emperor who copied the family'. I know it in my heart. The kindness is for the kindness, not for you to cast spells. After the government is rectified, I can give this notoriety to me. Change it. Last time, Liu Molin satirized and wrote a poem. There are two lines in it, "Personnel affairs are like a banquet, and the cups and plates are messed up to listen to the group of slaves." It is about the bitterness of being copied. I said, what is sweet first must be bitter, Those who are willing to suffer must be sweet. These corrupt officials and corrupt officials are allowed to use greedy money to enrich their families and raise their children and grandchildren. How can the laws of the country be established and how can the hearts of the people show an example? Corruption is a national traitor, and the money has not been used to fill my heart Ku, my pocket is full, what is wrong with me? Say it!"

"Nowadays the family is being ransacked so that officials talk about copying." Yun did not show any weakness, "I have played 'spoofing' at cards! Officials are scholar-bureaucrats, shouldn't they be a little dignified? Do the court have to rely on them?"

He wholeheartedly wanted to argue with Yongzheng on this unclear big national policy, and changed his usual sloppy and elegant demeanor to talk endlessly and speak plausibly.Zhang Tingyu saw that Yongzheng's face was full of dark clouds, getting heavier and heavier, and he was about to explode, so he winked at Fang Bao.Fang Bao understood immediately, and said with a smile: "Baye, the Lord has just returned to Beijing, and the pommel horse has been exhausted all the way, so we will discuss these matters slowly."

"I don't necessarily have to discuss this matter with you. Without Butcher Zhang, will you eat pigs with hair?" Yongzheng stared at Yun quietly with resentment and said, "You are a good person, always thinking of others, such an ordinary person like me Master, how can I afford a sage like you? You are sick, and you are going back home to recuperate, and I will give you an order when you come back." Listening to this vicious and harsh sarcasm, dozens of people inside and outside the hall were all trembling. .Yun, however, showed no signs of fear. He kowtowed and said, "I disagree with Wansui's politics, but I don't have any intentions of getting rid of Wansui. Since Wansui has this will, my younger brother will naturally follow his orders and go back to the manor to recuperate and study." Get up and turn around and leave.Yongzheng was so angry that his chest rose and fell, and he suddenly raised his hand and said, "Slow down!"

Yun hadn't reached the door yet, when he heard the shout, he was taken aback for a moment, then turned around, but he refused to be rude, bowed deeply and said, "What is the purpose of Long Live?"

"The books you read are all the principles of being an official." In an instant, Yongzheng also returned to normal, with a slight sneer of contempt still hanging from the corner of his mouth, he turned sideways and took out a booklet from the papers, and handed it to Long beside him. Ke Duo said: "Uncle, this is a book written by Li Wei, and there is a "Selling Poem" in it. I took it to Prince Lian and took it back to the mansion to read. It doesn't matter!" Longkodo took the booklet with his hands trembling with sweat, and passed it to Yun.Yun leaned over and kowtowed again, saying "obey the order", sleeved the booklet and walked away angrily.See note on page 195 of this volume.

Yongzheng stared at Yun's elegant figure, and took a long time to let out a breath.Only then did he ask Ma Qi and Longkodo: "What's the matter with you two? What happened to Changchun Garden, it looks like the two armies are facing each other?" Longkodo saw that Ma Qi's white hair was trembling and his mouth and nose were not straight. He was afraid that the villain would sue first , because he took the first step, and compared his words with his hands, why did he ask Sanbeile Hongshi for instructions, and then discussed with Yun, how did he go to Gubeikou because Yun Li, who was good at capturing the camp, and how to prevent the villain from causing trouble, lurking in the palace. The move that benefited Yongzheng... I elaborated one by one, and said: "Ma Qi doesn't care about military affairs, and Jingyuan didn't interfere with government affairs. He suddenly intervened, and it was nothing to do, but it disturbed the whole world. Liu Tiecheng The insults in the garden were wanton, the minister really swallowed his anger, and his face was disgraced..." Saying this touched his heart for some reason, his heart was sour, and the circles of his eyes felt red.

"I am also the minister of the guards. Long live safety is not your responsibility alone." Ma Qi ignored it and stared at Long Kedo, "Sougong and Jingyuan should actually be executed after requesting an order. We have discussed together It's a little too polite, let alone Mr. Fang, Mr. Thirteen and I don't know about it!" Yun Xiang felt that he should not be silent about this matter, and sighed: "This matter is inappropriate, Ma Qi and Uncle don't get married , My body is too weak, it is right for me to preside over it, and there will be no such thing." After speaking, he coughed again and again, his throat became sweet, and he knew that he was coughing up blood, so he dared not vomit, so he quickly swallowed.

Fang Bao frowned and kept meditating. He was the only civilian official in the study room. He only had the right to be a counselor but not to make decisions.But he is proficient in calligraphy and history, and his ministers are good at searching the palace. Except for Cao Cao, Sima Shi, and Donghunhou, these traitors who rebelled against the country, since the Tang Dynasty, even Yan Song has never dared to do it.The horror of this sign is not because of Longkodo's recklessness, but whether there is a deeper and bigger background behind it.However, the internal and external personnel affairs in the capital were in such chaos that he couldn't figure it out for a while.Thinking about it, Fang Bao said: "It's all for the sake of the country, and the uncle should have a discussion. This kind of thing is an example, and future generations will be unimaginable." Long Kedo blushed and said: "You are in the poor After tidying up the imperial books, I missed you a few times, and now I know that you live with the Thirteenth Master.” Ma Qi immediately pushed back: “Even the Thirteenth Master’s life, Ma Qi would not dare to accept it! I kicked out the thousand and 200 people, don’t look for Liu Tiecheng——I’ll make a statement later on to impeach you!”

"Ma Qi, no one says you're not," Yun Xiang forced a smile, "but uncle is also kind. The first emperor of Daxing went hunting in Rehe, so he had to clean up the summer resort too!"

"That's different. That's a decree!" Ma Qi's neck muscles swelled up, "Ling Pu, who led troops into the Summer Resort without authorization, has been executed!" "You are too shameless!" Long Kedo looked at Breathing fire, "Am I treason?" Ma Qi pouted his neck and said, "I didn't say you were treason, I said Ling Pu!"

Yongzheng had been listening quietly, until now he saw several ministers turned their faces and quarreled together, and suddenly burst out laughing: "I'm all angry, have you forgotten that you were rude before? Uncle has done this rudely, but everyone in the world is afraid of it." Against all odds, I guarantee that my uncle will not have any conspiracy, and Ma Qi is too suspicious. There is a Fengtai camp here, can 200 people guard Changchun Garden? Don't do this—who are you You are not allowed to talk either—listen to me, the matter will pass slowly, and there will be a resolution. No one should pursue this matter any more. Okay?"

Ma Qilongkodo made trouble in Changchun Garden to the point where the two armies confronted each other. Everyone thought that Yongzheng would definitely pursue this matter, but no one expected that such a few words were made lightly, and the meaning of reconciliation was beyond words.Longkoduo felt timid at first, and his high-hanging heart was relieved immediately, and everyone's faces gradually calmed down.But Ma Qi was still dissatisfied, and kowtowed: "I have no personal grievances with Uncle Long Guo. Chen Bing, the man who is currently in command of the infantry, is outside the garden. It is shocking to hear the news outside. Please order, Lord Long, to order the soldiers to return to the camp!" Yongzheng smiled, looked around and said nothing.Zhang Tingyu said: "The slave thinks what Ma Qi said is true." Fang Bao said, "Since it's here, it's better to be safe."

"It's not good to save face for uncle too much." Yongzheng said carefully: "It's not good to enter the garden, and it's not good to go back. In this way, the more than 1000 people led by Li Chunfeng's department were transferred to the commander of the good hunting camp. Shanchuangying Jingyuan is still presided over by uncle. In this way, the management is straightened out, and outsiders have nothing to say. Thirteenth brother, let’s do it this way, and you ask Zhang Yu to pass the decree at the gate of the garden.” Waiting for Yunxiang and Long Kedo After resigning, Yongzheng said to Zhang Tingyu with a smile: "Heng Chen, I never thought that I would watch a dragon-tiger fight as soon as I returned to Beijing!" Seeing that Li Dequan, the chief eunuch of the Hall of Mental Cultivation, came in with dozens of eunuchs to pay his respects, all the ministers resigned.That night, Emperor Yongzheng returned to Changchun Garden. De Lengtai, Erlundai, Liu Tiecheng, Zhang Wuge and his bodyguards brought the original guards of Changchun Garden, and the newly added Li Chunfeng was stationed outside. nor.

Yun held back his unknown anger and "complied with the order" and went back to the house to "recover and study". After "raising" for less than twelve hours, a decree came from Changchun Garden: Prince Lian is still in charge of preparing for Nian Gengyao's entry into the city to present prisoners for inspection, "to be familiar with the skills", and he dare not be hard-pressed; he resigned softly Thank you, there is a word in the decree first: "Prince Lian's body rests with the country, although he is sick, he can lie down and leave it alone. The king will never shirk Zhou Zhang because of heatstroke and disappoint me"!It is clearly stated that you must take care of your errands when you are sick.Yun felt the price of the five-flavored bottle in his heart, and the sorrow, bitterness, bitterness and bitterness were mixed into a ball, and it was only at this time that he really knew the situation of "people have to bow their heads under the low eaves".I had no choice but to kowtow to accept the order, and tried my best to go to the upper study room, summoned the officers of the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Households one by one to arrange a welcome ceremony in the suburbs.There should be a lottery workshop, where should a reed shed be set up, the address of the officials to greet them, the order of the officials, and orders to set up incense tables in the homes of the people along the roads in the suburbs of the capital. Master Wang returned to court after victory.Fortunately, most of these ministers and officials were single-handedly promoted by him. After many years of running under the door, they are used to obeying, and everything feels smooth, and no one refuses to obey orders.Gradually, Yun's mood became better and better.By the eighth day of May, the soldiers and horses of the Ministry of National Defense had arrived at Changxindian. On the ninth day of the lunar new year, they could arrive in Fengtai for a short rest.Fearing that Yongzheng would pick something wrong, Yun still braved the heat and took a bright sedan chair to see the layout of the road from Luhe Station to Meridian Gate in person, and then handed over the sign to Changchun Garden to pay the order.

In fact, just after the Dragon Boat Festival, the durian flowers in the garden have just fallen and the roses are in full bloom, and the scarlet, black and white flowers are colorful in the thick green bushes.The golden vat stores the water of Changchun, the rich door is filled with fragrant green moxa, and the officials on the cobblestone road with the flower wall come and go, gathering in twos and threes, some are waiting to be received by the minister of the study, some have just received them, and they are all excited Discuss the grand ceremony of the triumphant return of the great general of the year.Seeing him coming, he forced his hands out of the way. Greetings, greetings, strike up a conversation, all kinds of obsequiousness have their own style, and I can't describe them all.This is what Yun deeply appreciates. Although the errands are bitter, the joy in the bitterness is hard to describe. Seeing Longkodo coming from Danningju, shaking his head and shaking his head, the two of them only met each other. Xu Jun, who was talking to the Imperial Academy in front of the copper vat, said, "Come here!"

"Eight Master, you called me?" Xu Jun walked over regardless of the crowd, and slapped Qian'er with a smile, "I just met Long Live. This time to welcome the general back to the court, he will issue an edict at the Meridian Gate They drafted a few drafts and asked Zhang Zhongtang to call them back. Just now, Long Live sent an edict to me to draft it on the spot, which won the prize!" Yun smiled, and seeing that Long Kedo had passed, Fang asked: "What else does Long Live want? Is it just to summon you?" Xu Jun got up and said, "Long live said that the drafts of the Hanlin Academy were too rigid, and they should be gorgeous and precious, not stereotyped. In fact, my articles are only If the rhetoric is more flamboyant, who would have thought it would be right for the master! Oh, just now at the interview, Zhang Zhongtang was also there, and I heard that Long Zhongtang handed over the note, please resign from the nine admirals, and I didn't hear anything else."

Yuntou was stunned with a "boom": It seems that Longkodo is really going to wash his hands and get off the boat, what's the matter?After being stunned for a moment, Fang thought that he couldn't talk about this with Xu Jun who was full of complacency, so he said coldly: "I used one of your manuscripts, and I'm so excited. I really have to congratulate you! I thought I copied your father. I have given you back the family property reward! Let me tell you, Peng Peng and Sun Jiagan jointly participated in your book, Long Live Lord is a shameless person, I will give you a handful of honey today, and I may give you Shengjiang Alley tomorrow!"

"They—what are they doing to me?" Xu Jun, who was so happy, seemed to have been hit by a sap, and his face turned white.

"You and Liu Molin are fighting over that bitch Su Shunqing." Yun's tone was as calm as boiled water, "Liu Molin went to work in the army with his beloved Lexi, and you called me Tangzi, drank some wine and gave you medicine, and charmed that woman, eh? Is there anything? What's next? Do you need me to say anything?" Seeing Xu Jun staring at him dumbfounded, Yun sneered and said: "Although you are talented, you are so immoral that you are so immoral. Your teacher Tang Jing died of croton soup, so let's take this matter into consideration. , Fortunately, Longkoduo communicated with me, and the "unsubstantiated investigation" saved you. Longkodo is going to collapse, and I will collapse too. Let's see who is going to wrap up your evil fire with paper!" After that, he also Without waiting for Xu Jun to answer, he picked up his feet and walked away.Xu Jun stood in the shade of the flowers, covered in cold sweat.Su Shunqing's story is true - Liu Molin had been away from Beijing for three days, and he called Su Shunqing into trouble.Afraid that she would not come, he even invited Wang Hongxu and Wang Wenshao to listen to some music and eat some dishes. After everyone left, he used medicine to knock Shunqing down... After the incident, he discovered that she was not a virgin. He also cursed a few times - outsiders didn't know about this. Could it be that the family members were cheating and leaking the news?Thinking about Yun's words, "there is no solid evidence", now the only option is to silence him as soon as possible.Otherwise, Liu Molin will have a good time when he comes back - thinking about it, Xu Jun didn't hesitate, because he saw a few colleagues making trouble about having a drink, said a few words "I'll invite you another day", and left the garden with a fake smile on his face. Instruct the family: "Prepare the sedan chair! - Go quietly to Jiaxing Tower and ask Miss Su to come to the house, either softly or hard!"

But Su Shunqing is no longer in Jiaxing Building, and has already moved to Qipan Street outside Qianmen.Ever since she lost her virginity at the concert in Xu Jun's mansion, Su Shunqing seemed to have suffered from a serious illness. She didn't eat or drink for three days, and she didn't talk to anyone. Following Xu Jun's advice.I didn't expect Xu Jun to be so daring and dark-hearted. He knew that he was Liu Molin's person, but he would take sweat medicine, and just... She felt like a ball of rotten cotton stuffed in her heart, and she couldn't figure it out. It was full, at first she just lay on the bed and wept silently all day long, but later she didn’t even cry, she just stared at the ceiling with a pair of clear eyes.Although the old bustard knew the reason well, she had been running the hospital for decades, and had experienced this kind of thing more than once, she thought she would let go after a few days, seeing that Shunqing's water and rice didn't enter, she seemed to intend to commit suicide He came over to comfort him and said, "The ones who eat this bowl of food are those who sell their mouths but not their bodies. How can we be clean? Why worry about yourself and ruin your body? It's not me saying something brave, I want to make money from you. It's been a long time ago, and Lord Tanhua can't take the lead. Speaking of which, we're just messing around in the garden, so we're pure and innocent, and we don't have a chastity The principle of the memorial archway. My old sister brought a few girls back last time and said that Kaifeng could not stay here. Mr. Tian closed all the brothels and told the children to be good. The word "two words, how can it be so easy, the playboy bastard drummer, handed down from generation to generation for hundreds of years, who doesn't know how to cultivate land, how to drive a boat, who doesn't know how to farm, study, fisherman and woodcutter? It's useless if you can't do it! Me too People who have suffered so much, what is the good name of 'old bustard'? I also recognize it, child, listen to me, we have to accept our fate!"

…………

"Even Lord Tanhua, I don't think you need to be so stupid." Seeing her turn inward, the madam knew that the way to persuade her was wrong, she stroked Shunqing's shoulder and said, "How many good men are there? I have never seen her in my life." After a few! The first one I picked up when I was young was a master Juren. You haven’t seen him so serious, sitting there listening to my singing, he looks like a master Guan. As soon as everyone left, he changed his appearance. Red, he arched his head and hugged his legs and licked his head down, regardless of the front and back... I am a whore, and I am disgusted by his behavior! Oh, who told us to be women? Follow me, eat dumb and suffer Now, a bed of brocade has been covered, where are the traces of this?"

Su Shunqing turned around with a "huh", pointed at the madam and said, "You are you, I am me, and he is him! I have no such dirty things with Mo Lin, even if there is, I am willing! You can speak human words if you want to." , and then humiliate Master Liu, the two characters overlap, you go!"

"I'm doing it for you!" The bustard glanced at Su Shunqing, lowered her head, sighed with a wry smile, and said, "...Of course it's more about myself. Mr. Xu is the son of Mr. Xu, Xiangguo, and also the eighth Buddha. Red man. Mr. Liu is a new nobleman, the one who speaks loudly to Mr. Long Live. No matter who cures me, it is easier to kill an ant! Seeing Mr. Liu, he came back to Beijing. You have something wrong, Mr. Liu asked me for someone, Where am I going to cry? My dear girl, don’t miss it, don’t miss it, you always call me ‘Mom’, remember that I never force you to pick up guests...” As he spoke, he took out his handkerchief, his eyes were full of tears Quan Yong, holding his mouth and choking, was about to release his voice.

Su Shunqing's tears flowed down, she let out a long sigh and her clothes fell over again, she covered her face with her hands and said, "I don't have the face to see him, but I want to see him again... Mom, don't worry, I... eat That's it..."

Sure enough, since then, Su Shunqing has gradually improved his diet, worked for several days, and has been able to walk around in the ground, but his expression is cold, even the sisters who used to come and go don't pay much attention to it.Baba'er waited until the tenth day of the fifth lunar month, which was the day when General Nian entered the city.Su Shunqing knew that the city must be crowded with people. She hated hearing people's voices, so she took a bamboo sedan chair carried by two people early on, brought wine, food and cigarettes, and wandered out of Xizhimen. Those who came out to watch the excitement, not only under the shade of the trees, but also under the old sun, many people opened big green cloth parasols, and set up incense tables under the umbrella to greet them-in fact, since Yongzheng ascended to the throne, he has not shown his face in front of the people of the capital People running so far, in order to see the scenery of "Master Wang's triumphant return", they want to see what the "Emperor Lao Tzu" looks like-Su Shunqing saw that there were people on the third floor and the third floor on the side of the road near the city. Snacks, soup cakes, siew mai jelly jelly noodles, fried noodles with crispy sugar, roasted chicken and marinated meat stalls, there was a lot of hawking and singing, so they continued along the post road and walked ten miles away to see that the flow of people gradually thinned out. So, she set up an incense table under a big willow tree, sat and waited quietly, all she wanted was to see Liu Molin again from a distance, and her wish was fulfilled.

At the right time card, I heard three cannons from the Fengtai camp. Teams of soldiers went out of the camp in order with spears and spears, and set up defenses along the post road. There is an officer standing on each side of the square, standing upright with his sword and commanding in sections. All the sergeants are in the same brand-new livery, which is truly majestic and majestic.Su Shunqing sat indifferently and waited patiently.After a while, I saw several soldiers galloping into the city on horseback from the Southwest official road. It is expected that Nian Gengyao's army sent people into the city to make contact.After a while, three cannons were fired from Gongchentai in the city, the bell and drum towers rang together, and the big bells of various temples immediately joined each other from a distance.Almost at the same time, the corners of the Luhe Station were singing in unison, and the military music was playing loudly. The first five hundred school captains swung out with swords and stepped on the loess road, followed by 180 healthy mules dragging ten red clothes Cannons and chariots rumbled past, thanks to the drivers, even the hooves of the mules were stamped on the drums, and the yellow dust was raised high.The people on the side of the road were already stunned. When Su Shunqing looked curiously, the guard of honor had already come out—in front were eighty dragon flags, which were held by eighty sturdy men.Immediately after that is the 54-fold Kowloon curved cover, all beige in color, and only the last two, one emerald and the other purple, are "the emerald and purple covers inherit each other".Behind the canopy, the two long teams of sergeants walked very calmly, led by eight door flags, two golden drum flags, two Cuihua flags, four small golden flags, and one each for the police and entry flags. Afterwards, 120 sergeants held golden axes, lying down Melons, standing melons, axes, broadswords, red stirrups, and yellow stirrups have been opened.Su Shunqing waited desperately, seeing all kinds of guards of honor slowly pass by for a moment, but there was no sign of Nian Gengyao.Just as he was in a hurry, he saw 64 sergeants coming over with the carriage.The flag chariot was made very wide, and there were four generals protecting the flag at the four corners of the chariot, all of whom were dressed in second-rank clothes, holding their heads up and holding their swords, like the four great King Kongs in the Zhongyue Temple. The flag poles in the chariot were more than two feet high , with red tassels and bright yellow borders, the sapphire blue flag is as long as two feet long, with big yellow characters written on it: The year of the general who was ordered to conquer the West shines brightly in the bright sun.Behind the chariot is Nian Gengyao's guard of honor in the Chinese army, but ten imperial guards in yellow jackets rode first on horseback, followed by dozens of Chinese army guards carrying the emperor's Shangfang sword and bright yellow festival axe, surrounded by the majestic General Nian Gengyao was not accompanied by anyone else.

Although Su Shunqing was a woman, she knew that she was allowed to follow the army. It was the emperor who punished this "Nine Masters", so she couldn't follow Nian Gengyao.But Bao Bao Le and Liu Molin are imperial envoys from Xuanzhao, specially to welcome General Nian to return to Beijing, and at worst, they will walk with Nian Gengyao, why are they not even seen?For a while, I thought that maybe Hongli didn't want to overwhelm the host, and it was possible to stay in Xining Xu Xu and then come back. At the same time, I thought that maybe Liu Molin was sick?I'm crazy to think about it, and I didn't pay attention to the long teams of soldiers with bright banners and guards of honor behind me. I just looked for Liu Molin, but where could I see it?It wasn't until the 3000 people had passed that she realized that the shade of the tree had long been missed, and she was already sitting in the hot sun. After thinking for a long time, Su Shunqing sighed softly and got up, and said to the bearer: "Go back to the city, the west gate can't get in, Let's take a detour back through Xuanwumen..." As soon as she got into the sedan chair, her whole body went limp and she fell into a daze.

Of course, Nian Gengyao, who was on the horse, couldn't understand Su Shunqing's little thoughts. This "class teacher" returned to the imperial court, starting from Qinghai in early April, and after entering the customs, the road was paved with loess, and incense candles and flowers greeted him.Along the way, in the four provinces of Gansu, Shaanxi, Henan, and straight from the border, from entry to exit, the governors and governors personally greeted and sent off, bowed down and ate imitation meals, paying homage to gods.The "Yicheng" donated by the Taoists of various prefectures is piled up in mountains and seas, with a total of about one million taels. It is impossible to carry it, and it is inconvenient to bring it to Beijing.At this moment, thousands of riders surrounded him, purple rodents sat on the seat, yellow reins in their hands, thousands of people fragrant flowers and wine, looked at the dust and danced and worshiped. Wherever they went, people fell down like a fallen wheat field and did not dare to look up.Who has enjoyed this scenery, this ostentation, this glory since ancient times?Sweeping in front of your eyes, the dragon flag can block out the sun, looking around, you can see the brilliance of gold and weapons, all because he is a great general with great merits, and he has returned to the court after victory!With a pale face, he tried his best to suppress the excitement and intoxication in his heart. The four dragon robes in Jiangya Seawater were covered with a golden yellow jacket, and the black gauze shirt was tied with bright yellow silk. The three-eyed peacock feathers on the top were in the slight smoke Floating in the air, staring at the capital which is getting closer and closer.In front of the dark and tall Xizhi Gate, more than [-] officials of the Ministry of Rituals saw the flag from a distance, and the Minister's servant Hei Yaya knelt down and shouted in unison:

"Duke Nian Lianggong General Wanfu Ankang!"

Nian Gengyao didn't even look at the crowd, he nodded slightly and rode his horse into the city.At this moment, the city is surrounded by fireworks and fragrant mist, and the firecrackers burst into the sky like gruel, and the price is loud.One after another, the festoons are filled with crowds of thousands of people, and the eyes of thousands of people are mad and intoxicated, admiring the demeanor of the general.The admirals of the Nine Gates and the soldiers of the Shuntian Mansion Yamen joined hands to form a human wall to clear the way for Nian Gengyao's three thousand ceremonies. Everyone was sweaty and sweaty, and the incense cases at the gates of each house were crowded. Arch and salute, showing reverence"?After doing good and evil, he finally arrived at the Meridian Gate at the end of the day.There are not a single commoner here, and the officials who came to Beijing to report on their duties were led by two uncles, Prince Jian and Prince Gong, led by Prince Lian, and there were thousands of officials. The officer kneels to accept!"Everyone below the prince knelt down with a "huh".After three quiet whips, Nian Gengyao came to his senses from the stupefaction, hurriedly got off his horse, and saw the main gate of the Meridian Gate open, and 36 eunuchs came out to welcome Emperor Yongzheng, who was sitting on a bright yellow sedan chair.Immediately, the music of Danbi was composed, and 360 people from Changyin Pavilion under Zuoye Gate were enshrined in the percussion music of Huangzhong's chimes. Their lips opened and closed, and they sang words:
Qingyi Chaoduan, misty auspicious clouds, rivers and mountains Qingyan, bells and flags are delivered to the saddle.He Yuanrong, Liang Han, and Jing Xian Cun Chengdan.Contained in Ge, He Peiluan.The success of thousands of miles will be remembered, and the far and near will have fun together...

Yongzheng smiled and stepped down from Chengyu. After listening to the music quietly, he walked towards Nian Gengyao and took off Nian Gengyao's battle robe with his own hands. Kneel three times and kowtow nine times, and call out:

"Long live my emperor, long live!"

Yongzheng accepted the gift with a smile, helped Nian Gengyao to get up himself, and said, "General, the saddle horse is tired, thank you for your hard work!" He took Nian Gengyao with one hand, and waved the other hand to signal the officials to stand up. enter.Yun hurriedly shouted: "The ceremony is complete! All the officials enter the palace through the left ye gate to receive the feast!" When everyone got up, there was a buzzing sound of envy.

No one noticed that Yun Xiang and Wu Sidao, who had just arrived in Beijing, stood in front of the big stone tablet that read "Civilian officials get off their sedan chairs here, military officials get off their horses here".Yun Xiang watched the ceremony with a smile, Wu Sidao stood aside with his crutches on his back, sighed and said, "Chucai! Lianggong will have a good life in a few days!"
