Travel through the Qing Dynasty and become emperor

Chapter 725
Black: Pawns seven into one, the shining bayonet always shows the soul of the soldier, there is no retreat, the brave wins when they meet on a narrow road!

Guan Xuqing said thoughtfully: "There are no regrets in life, the road is blazed by oneself, no matter what the future is, there is no turning back. The little pawn will never return. Since I have chosen the far away place, I will face it bravely. Maybe the far away There are many, many dangers, once you choose, you can no longer shrink back, what you need is this kind of spirit of going forward. Those who have aspirations, everything will be accomplished, and the boat will be destroyed, and the Baier Qinguan will eventually belong to Chu."

Red: Cannon eight level five, the cannon hit across the mountain, set up the muzzle of the black hole behind the horse, aimed directly at the black infantry on the Han border, and opened its bloody mouth.

Kang Youwei said: "My minister is never afraid of mountains, because I can't pass one road, I can choose another road. What blocks me is not the high mountains in front of me, but the confusion of not knowing how to choose."

Guan Xuqing said with a sense of comprehension: "A person's life is fleeting like a shooting star. We play our respective roles conscientiously in this short stage of life. In this chess game of life, we all become that person." Chess players who are eager to try. Since we are chess players, what are we for? It is to win, to defeat the opponent! What is the road? People walk too much is the road. But as chess players, what we have to do is to walk our own way and let others There is no way out!"

silence.

In the room, apart from the sound of fighting each other on the chessboard, there is only the sound of firewood crackling in the fire!
In the face of Kang Youwei's frequent killing moves, Guan Xuqing followed each move with evidence, and resolved them one by one.Guan Xuqing knew that he had already put a lot of pressure on Kang Youwei. For Kang Youwei just now, from a depressed and idle civil servant to being highly regarded by the emperor and becoming a minister in charge of the empire's education cause, this time he was facing a large-scale education by the Ministry of Education. The personnel adjustment, the emperor gave him such a great trust, Kang Youwei was grateful but also a little scared, afraid that his negligence would disappoint the emperor, so the chess game was obviously a little messy.

A person in a high position must always feel like he is walking a tightrope, otherwise he may fall down at any time and be smashed to pieces, and the emperor is the one who can support Kang Youwei.People are like a game of chess, yes, Kang Youwei seems to be betting, using this game of chess to bet on his future.

After several fights, there were only a few pawns left on the chessboard for both sides to cross the river. The only difference was that Guan Xuqing had one more horse.

Snapped!
Guan Xuqing exchanged a horse for two of Kang Youwei's soldiers, forcing Kang Youwei's red commander to become a polished commander.

Both sides had only one combat force left, each with one soldier, and Guan Xuqing had one more soldier than Kang Youwei.

"It's a draw!" Kang Youwei said with some disappointment. He has always done his part when playing chess, and he is unwilling to lose a game of chess easily, even if the person sitting opposite is the Nine-Five Supreme.

"No!" After Guan Xuqing finished speaking, he pushed the pawns into one, and became a single soldier capturing the commander.

Looking at the battlefield again, after a few steps, Guan Xuqing's veteran general, under the cover of the soldiers, suddenly occupied the center, and neither side could move, except Guan Xuqing's soldiers.

Victory is decided!

Kang Youwei heaved a sigh of relief, and said, "I forgot that you still have a man to move. You won, but in the end, my minister was still one move away."

Looking at this heroic hero who had narrowly won, Guan Xuqing said suddenly: "It is not others who play the key role in times of crisis, but 'scholars'. To fight against the country, I have chariots, horses, artillery, and soldiers. They march forward bravely and are invincible. But if there is no Defend the homeland, protect your own soldiers and elephants, and lose your own territory before gaining other people's lands. It is like my last trump card, "It is better to chase the poor with the remaining bravery, and not to be famous as the overlord"! Guangsha, You are my taxi, an indispensable taxi, and a trustworthy taxi."

After Kang Youwei listened, he suddenly lowered his head, and it took him a long time to raise his head, picked up the personnel appointment form that the emperor had just approved, got up and said, "Your Majesty, I still have a lot of work to do, so I won't play chess with you."

After speaking, Kang Youwei turned and left.At that moment, Guan Xuqing seemed to see the glittering light behind Kang You's eyeglasses!
When Guan Xuqing cleaned up the chessboard, he found that one soldier was missing, which was the one he had left on the chessboard just now.

November [-]nd, Beijing.

The weather is good. Although there was a little snow last night, it melted away as soon as the sun came out.Looking at the lovely blue sky, Guan Xuqing was in a particularly good mood.With such fine weather, it would be a pity not to go out and have a good time.Now in the international arena, Chinese people always raise their heads and hold their chests up when they meet everyone. Although they don’t have the kind of villainous people in the West who are arrogant when they get Taoism and regard other races as inferior races, they are also You don't have to be the same as before, when you meet a Westerner, your body will naturally become a lot shorter.This change in national mentality is most deeply experienced by those Westerners who used to be domineering in China.From the performance point of view.Chinese people are still so humble.Still so polite.However, Westerners can feel that the high-spirited and high-spirited momentum of the Chinese exudes from the bottom of their bones. When they meet Chinese people, they always feel that their backs are a bit hard.

However, is this alone considered a success?Seriously, about that.Guan Xuqing was a little confused.No matter from that point of view, in the eyes of others, he is a successful person, with three thousand fans, above ten million people, if he stomps his feet, the whole world will tremble.In the past, Guan Xuqing also thought that he was successful, but today he occasionally calms down.He looked up at the blue sky.He suddenly realized that he hadn't made it, that he had it all.But no self.Going to Xiangshan to see red leaves in autumn is a must-do for people living in Beijing.But since he ascended the throne, he didn't even know what the red leaves on Xiangshan Mountain looked like.Now he is the richest and most powerful man in the world, but also the least time-poor man in the world.

He could vaguely hear a few birds chirping, Guan Xuqing turned his face away, and stared at the group of wild geese flying south that just appeared in his sight. The big goose must be very happy in his heart. Compared with the leading goose, his heart is a bit bitter.With a sigh, he put his mind back and sat down on the chair again. The documents that he needed to look at piled up like a mountain. There are many pages.Looking at this pile of excerpts, Guan Xuqing smiled wryly. Sometimes you can choose what kind of person you want to be, but once you choose, you can't change it. Let's face the reality.It's a good day, and I have time to smile wryly, which can be regarded as a gratifying thing.

While reviewing the papers, Wang Shang came to report that Prince Jin had seen him, but Guan Xuqing said "Xuan" without raising his head, and the sound of heavy footsteps reached his ears.

"Your majesty, what's the matter with you? You seem to be in a trance?" Zaifeng asked with concern.

Zaifeng respects his second elder brother very much, and he will immediately perceive every slight change in the other's spirit.Guan Xuqing stared at Zaifeng for a while, then smiled and said, "Fifth brother, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you have lost a lot of weight."

Zaifeng felt warm in his heart, and after paying the respects of the emperor and ministers, Guan Xuqing ordered someone to bring a handful of bamboo sticks and asked Zaifeng to sit down and talk.Guan Xuqing said leisurely: "It's nothing. I saw a few wild geese just now, and I felt a little touched."

In front of the discerning emperor, Zaifeng didn't need to pretend to be himself.Zaifeng nodded, leaned forward and sat on the chair, drinking the fragrant tea just brought up by the eunuch, and said: "Your brother knows, you must be tired. My brother often feels this way, especially It’s when you’re exhausted physically and mentally.”

"Maybe, fifth brother. Recently, there have been a lot of domestic and international affairs, and my mind has never stopped. I am really tired." Guan Xuqing let out a long breath.

"How about it, Your Majesty, today you also give yourself a day off, and my brother will accompany you to Xiangshan, Hongye, our great river and mountain in China. You spend most of your time in the Forbidden City to discuss matters, so it's time to go out and relax. " Zaifeng said with a smile.

"Okay," Guan Xuqing couldn't help standing up, shaking his sore shoulders, and said, "Fifth brother, we brothers haven't stayed together for a long time, let's play lightly. Daily In the palace, we are talking about war or state affairs, so why not take this opportunity to call all the younger brothers to have a good time."

Guan Xuqing has seven brothers in total, the eldest brother died early; the third brother died early; the fourth brother Zai Kuang died early; the fifth brother Zaifeng, the hereditary Prince Chun, was then the deputy prime minister of the cabinet; the sixth brother Zaixun was the director of the Suzheng Department at the time ; The seventh brother Zai Tao, then served as the deputy of the Military Affairs Department of the Military Command.

"Abiding by the decree. My brother immediately asked someone to inform them. The sixth son went to the northeast and just came back a few days ago. The seventh brother is the most idle among our elder brothers. With the war, international trade has been greatly reduced. Domestic industry It has also been transferred to the wartime mechanism. He, who likes trading the most, now has time to go fishing at home. Except for our brothers, Zai Ze will leave Beijing tomorrow to inspect major shipyards across the country. He should take a good rest; as for Zaiying, this darling, he has been devoting all his energy to selecting and training new pilots, and he just stays in Beijing every day. It’s rare that the brothers are all in Beijing, so we should find a time to get together. .Your majesty, take a break, and the servants will go to make arrangements immediately. The personalities of those people are clear to the servants, and each of them looks desperate when they run errands. If the secretary informs them, maybe they will find all kinds of There are all kinds of reasons to evade, I think I have to call them in person, today I have to put down my business no matter what, and let everyone relax."

Sure enough, as Zaifeng expected, except for Zai Tao's immediate agreement, the other people's caliber was surprisingly consistent. They were too busy with government affairs and had no time to come out.Zaifeng had no choice but to move the emperor out, saying that he had obeyed the emperor's oral order. In this way, no one dared to shirk anymore, and they all obediently came to the Old Summer Palace to gather.
