Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 1375 Redrawing Khalkha (Two in One)

After hearing what Chu Yu said, Hang Seng became more and more anxious.

Cao Yong looked at Tianyou thoughtfully, nodded, and said: "It is indeed the boss... I will punish you to go to the ancestral hall to copy the "Book of Filial Piety" for three days..." The latter sentence is to Tianyou Said.

"Yes, father." Tianyou bowed in response.

Although he is a bodyguard, he just happened to be on shift these few days, and Cao Yong also thought of this, otherwise the family rules cannot always be greater than the laws of the country.

Hang Seng blushed anxiously and said: "Father, I really don't want to do big brother's business, if I want to punish you, I will punish my son..."

Cao Yong glanced at him and said: "You are not left behind. When you feel better, you will be fined to copy the "Book of Filial Piety" thirty times..."

Seeing that Hang Seng still wanted to intercede again, Cao Yong snorted coldly and said: "If you talk too much, let him copy it for six days..."

"Father..." Although Hang Seng is not as afraid of Cao Yong as the other juniors in the Cao family, it can be seen that he does not have a smile on his face, and he dare not say any more. He just looks at Tianyou and feels more ashamed.

Tianyou shook his head gently, indicating that he was fine.

Although Hang Seng's fever had subsided, after all he had tossed all day and night, after talking for a while, he couldn't bear it anymore, and couldn't open his eyes anymore.

Chu Yu personally fed him the medicine, tucked him in the quilt, and patted him lightly, as if he was not facing a sixteen-year-old boy, but a baby.

Cao Yong and Tianyou stood aside, and when they saw this scene, their faces softened.

Cao Yong remembered the first time he saw Hang Seng back then. This was a little baby he picked up from a pool of blood. It was covered in blood, with a wrinkled face, but its small arms and legs were very strong. pedaling.

However, Tianyou remembered the conversation between the two brothers last night, and thought of Hang Seng's pretentious threat: "Brother, it is said that you have a wife and forget your mother, so you will marry a sister-in-law. You can't really treat your sister-in-law more than your parents." Heavy! If I really make my parents unhappy, I will not obey!"

How can Hang Seng's stubbornness and careful thinking hide it from God?

He pretended to be serious and said: "Understood, is it true that in the eyes of the second brother, the elder brother is a lustful person? Don't worry, he will not be more important than his parents."

After hearing this, Hang Seng continued to say: "You can't be more important than the old lady, younger sister, younger brother, and seventh uncle..."

Tianyou suppressed a smile, and said: "Understood, no more important than the old lady, younger sister, younger brother, and seventh uncle. I will put your sister-in-law in seventh place..."

Hang Seng heard this, and immediately became anxious: "Why is it seventh, it's eighth! There's also a younger brother!"

Tianyou finally couldn't help it, and laughed out loud.

Only then did Hang Seng see his playfulness, and said angrily, "Brother..."

Tianyou stopped teasing her, and said sternly, "Second brother, what are you worried about? Even if your sister-in-law comes in, she will only be filial to the old lady and the master and wife with me, and be friendly to the seventh uncle and younger brothers and sisters. Would you still provoke me to be unfilial?" ?” Speaking of this, he frowned and said: “Or did the second brother hear something? Could it be that Liugege’s character is flawed, not as good-natured as the outside said?”

After hearing this, Hang Seng quickly waved his hands and said, "No, no, brother, don't misunderstand. If you don't trust others, don't you believe in Uncle Qing? My sister-in-law is Uncle Qing's niece. Uncle Qing wanted to be a matchmaker long before the marriage was granted in the palace. , Brother, have you forgotten?"

Tianyou still frowned and said, "Since Liugege's character is nothing to worry about, what is the second brother worried about?"

Hang Seng drooped his head and said: "My brother is not worried about anything, I just feel... I just feel that Brother Song and Brother Bai have been far away from us since they started a family. We were often together before..."

Tianyou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and patted Hang Seng's forehead vigorously and said: "It's not a child, who can play together every day! To start a family and start a business, you need to bear a heavy burden. Naturally, you have to be busy with many things. Whoever is far away is whoever is? You don't have to complain, it will be the same when you marry a daughter-in-law..."

Hang Seng's head was like a rattle, and he said firmly: "No, my younger brother will never... get married if you get married, but if there are multiple people in the family, it will be different from the present..."

Although Hang Seng has experienced in the palace for many years, but because of his simple heart, he has not yet understood the relationship between men and women, so he will speak childishly at this moment.

Seeing this, Tianyou was stunned for a while, and for some reason remembered Le Qing who left the mansion last year.

When I grow up, how can I be the same as when I was a child.While burdening the ups and downs of his family, he is destined to let go of his youthful feelings.

It was precisely because of his thoughts that Tianyou, who originally had a good capacity for alcohol, finally passed out.

This is also the reason why Tianyou didn't defend himself. If he didn't want to get drunk, how could Hang Seng pour him down?

Unexpectedly, just wanting to let myself go for a night would lead to such consequences. Tianyou's eyes were already filled with tears unconsciously...

After a while, Hang Seng fell into a drowsy sleep, and Cao Yong, his wife and Tianyou came out from the west chamber...

Before Cao Yong brought Hang Seng back, he first sent Tian You to clean up the house.

The west chamber was originally Cao Yong's inner study, and it was usually cleaned by someone, but it didn't take much trouble to move in directly.

It is Cao Yong's intention to place Hang Seng in the husband and wife's two courtyards.At a very young age, Hang Seng experienced conspiracy and schemes, and killed someone again, fearing that he would be left alone and think wildly.

Although Chu Yu didn't know the truth, it could be considered as "poisoning", and she felt pity for Hang Seng in her heart, so naturally she had no other opinion.

This day, Cao Yong focused all his attention on Hang Seng. He hadn't used lunch and dinner yet, and at this moment, his stomach was beeping loudly.

Cao Yong then ordered Chuyu: "Whatever it is, ask the kitchen to bring some food." After that, he glanced at Tianyou, seeing his expression was dull, and said: "This is the end, regret is useless, you should think about it... ..."

Tianyou bowed and agreed, Cao Yong didn't look at him anymore, and strode to the room...

Chu Yu didn't follow, but stopped beside Tianyou, and said softly, "My dear son, don't blame the master for punishing you...I'm afraid you can't hide the matter of Hang Seng from the outside, I don't know how many people are watching...you In the joy of being an elder brother, let the younger brother eat a few more drinks, which is better than drinking in his filial piety... You are an elder brother, if you don't take care of your second brother, who else can take care of him?"

Tianyou helped Chu Yu's arm, and said, "Madam, don't worry, my son didn't blame the master... It's just that the son is not, as long as the son is more prudent, he shouldn't mess around with the second brother... When the son comes out of the ancestral hall, he will go to the prince's mansion." apologize……"

Seeing that her son was sensible, Chu Yu was very pleased, and said, "Okay, you have to look good on the outside... There are many filial piety in the world, even if there is only a name there, since your second brother is in this position, you should keep it. You have to be careful, don't let people catch the wrong place, or you will ruin your reputation, and it will be more difficult in the future..."

Tianyou nodded in agreement, and urged his mother to go back to the room early to arrange for his father to eat.

He himself did not go to the ancestral hall immediately, but turned back to the west wing.

Standing beside Hang Seng's bed, looking at Hang Seng who was deeply asleep, God Blessed Empress was terrified.

If those two servant girls gave Hang Seng not an aphrodisiac but poison last night, then Hang Seng would have been dead for a long time...

*
Jiuruyuan, go to the room.

Cao Yong put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and ate two bowls of chicken soup braised noodles, and his body became much warmer.

He rinsed his mouth and asked his wife, "God bless you, did you send food over there too?"

Chu Yu nodded and said: "Thinking that he didn't use dinner, he sent two plates of pastries...but he refused to use..." At this point, he sighed and said, "I'm afraid it's my son's heart. uncomfortable..."

Known child Moruomu.

Tianyou was regarded as the future hope of the family when he was young, and was taught by his grandfather and father successively.

Hang Seng grew up with him, and their bond deepened.

Hang Seng suffered a catastrophe, even if others did not blame Tianyou, he would have to blame himself if he did.

Cao Yong frowned and said: "If you are hungry for two meals, you will be hungry for two meals... Do we have to take care of one and comfort the other? It's not a child, he has to think about it and stand up..."

Although Chu Yu felt sorry for her eldest son, she didn't have a mother-in-law to go to the ancestral hall to persuade her son to eat...

Zhasaktu County Palace, as the palace of one of the few Mongolian princes in Beijing, naturally deserves attention.

The sixteenth elder brother came forward, attacked the servants of the palace, Hang Seng was "seriously ill", and was taken over by Cao Yong to take care of him without hesitation, which seemed to have proved something.

The next day, Yuanmingyuan, Qinzheng Hall.

Yongzheng's face was livid, and he gritted his teeth and said, "How dare that bastard stop the princess from giving birth?"

Different positions have different views.

Just like what Cao Yong can't bear is that others are calculating Hang Seng's reputation and safety; what Yongzheng can't bear is that others sabotage his plans.

What is the purpose of ennobling Hang Seng as the eldest son of the county king?Isn't it just that he wants someone who is friendly with the court to be the future Khan of Khalkha.

Arranging Hang Seng to open a mansion in the capital instead of letting him return to Khalkha now is also because he wants the next Khan to grow up in the capital and be friendly to the court.

That vicious side Fujin was just a trick of a woman, trying to get her son's name, although it was not pleasing, and it was not worth getting angry at.

Ge Yanke Yanpile sent people to premeditate to stir up the relationship between Hang Seng and the three princesses, and to prevent the three princesses from having children, their intentions are clearly revealed.

Thinking about it again, the imperial court has cared for the daughters of the Mongolian clan for decades, and the ones in Inner Mongolia are better.After all, most of the princesses and ancestral daughters who were the first to caress Inner Mongolia were descended from the Mongolian concubine Fujin, who themselves have Mongolian blood.

Most of them have descendants.

When the Eight Banners entered the customs, the relationship between the imperial court and Mongolia became delicate.

The imperial court not only needed the Mongols as allies to suppress the Han people together; it also had to prevent the Mongols from rebelling and copying their own way out.

The Mongols are no longer as peaceful as they used to be. They are docile on the face and considerate behind the scenes.

The imperial court caresses the princess of Mongolia, the status is there, and no one can coerce them to build a princess mansion by themselves; those princesses, county lords and other patriarchal daughters who have no status to open their own mansions are rarely able to have their own children.

Even if they gave birth to children, they either died young, or they were qualified as heirs because of the funeral, just like the disabled nephew of Prince Su's mansion.

Like Bao Yagege, after touching Mongolia, not only gave birth to two sons, but also asked the eldest son to invite him to be the son, which is rare among the daughters of the clan.

It's just because of the right time, place and people. The right time is because after Baoya got married, and until he ascended the throne today, the Holy Ancestor Emperor had to escape the summer outside the Great Wall and visit Mongolia every year.

The land is the fief of Baoya's husband, bordering on the northeast, the Mongols are more sinicized, and they are also very cautious when they are on the route of the royal tour.

Renhe is Bao Yagege who is not as weak as other clan daughters. She is outstanding in horseback riding, archery and hunting.

Khalkha Mongolia is in Outer Mongolia, with a vast territory, and the farthest place is thousands of miles away from the capital.

It was not easy for the imperial court to intervene in the affairs of Outer Mongolia.

Like Yongzheng, starting from Hengsheng, if the plan goes well, it is equivalent to the imperial court inserting a nail in Outer Mongolia, and Outer Mongolia will no longer be monolithic.

Elder Sixteen stood aside, not surprised to see Yongzheng furious, but he wondered a little in his heart, did he act too quickly yesterday?It would be better if I asked the emperor for instructions first.

It's just that in his rage yesterday, he couldn't help thinking a little bit incompletely.

Fortunately, Yongzheng was angry because he was angry, and he didn't blame Elder Sixteen for his independent assertion. Instead, he pondered for a while and said, "Remember to pick a girl of the right age from the unmarried girls from the side branch of Prince Xian's Mansion, and next year he will show up at the Prince's Mansion Gege After the anniversary, a marriage will be given to Gelke Yanpil."

The sixteenth elder brother bowed and agreed, and naturally knew Yongzheng's intention for this move.

For the sake of Hang Seng, King Khan had to keep the Khan King Gek Yanpil for the time being, but the position of King Khan's concubine could not be occupied by a Mongolian woman.

Mongolia is not like the customs, and the status of Mongolian women is higher than that of women in the customs.Even if Gelke Yanpil passed away in the future, and the Mongolian Khan concubine left behind, even if Hang Seng succeeded in inheriting the Khan throne, he would inevitably be tied up.

It's just that Yongzheng is the emperor after all, and a king of Khalkha Khan came to the capital to calculate the future royal forehead. If he didn't take revenge and go back, then the emperor would not be the emperor.

It's just that you can't give the aphrodisiac, and I will take it back?What's the point of that little fight?
Yongzheng squinted his eyes, asked someone to take the Khalkha map, lingered on the location of the Zhasaktu Banner for a while, and called Sixteen Brothers to come forward and said, "Sixteen Brothers, what do you think of this location?"

The sixteenth brother stepped forward to look, and what Yongzheng was referring to was the junction of the Zasaktu tribe and the Chechen Khan tribe.

In the early years, the two khans fought a lot because of the border dispute. They fought several times. Later, the living Buddha Jebtsundan Hutuktu came forward and asked the court to mediate, so that the two khans retreated a hundred miles each.

The piece in the middle of the two Khans does not belong to any of the two Khans in name.It belongs to the imperial court and bestows the Living Buddha as a place of incense.

This is the place where the two Khans fought, and the residence of the living Buddha is not here, but it is just a false name.

Elder Sixteen's eyes lit up, and he said: "There is a river flowing in the middle. I think it is a good place with rich water and grass..." Speaking of this, he was a little puzzled: "It's just why the two kings of Khan stopped fighting back then? There was no dispute. Win or lose?"

Yongzheng sneered and said: "It's just a greedy word. They think the sky is high and the emperor is far away. Sometimes it's cheaper to get a land without an owner than a land with an owner. Maybe one hundred miles becomes two hundred miles. Zhen Although I have never been to Khalkha, I can imagine that the herds in this 'land of no man' must be the densest in Khalkha..."

The sixteenth elder brother suddenly realized: "After all, the emperor's eyes are as bright as a torch. If he hadn't been deceived by this villain, I wouldn't have thought of these things..."

Yongzheng said: "The three Khan kings of Outer Mongolia, how have they ever truly settled down? As long as Ge Yanke Yanpil has the slightest sense of loyalty, he will not arrange such a trick..."

The sixteenth elder brother was filled with righteous indignation: "Yeah, thinking about it, I feel scared... This is still in Beijing, and they dare to plot against the third princess; if they are in Khalkha, I am afraid they will directly want..."

Brother Sixteen didn't say anything about the latter.

But think about those princesses and ancestral daughters who died young in Outer Mongolia, Yongzheng didn't understand what Sixteenth Brother meant.

Hang Seng is what he wants to support, and the third princess is the one he bestowed in marriage, so how can he not become more and more annoyed.

With a gloomy face, he said: "The three Khan kings of Khalkha have been in an alliance for too long, making them rampant, thinking that Khalkha is the world of the three of them..." At this point, he pointed to the open space : "What will happen if another flag is built here?"

Elder Sixteen couldn't help being taken aback when he heard the words, and then hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, please think again!"

Outer Mongolia is no different than Inner Mongolia. Inner Mongolia has been subject to the imperial court for a long time. In the early years, the princes of Inner Mongolia Baylor followed the Eight Banners to the south, and established the Mongolian Eight Banners, which have already become part of the imperial court.

The surrender of Outer Mongolia is surrender, but in the end it still needs to be appeasement.

Recklessly meddling in the government affairs of Outer Mongolia and causing dissatisfaction in Outer Mongolia, who knows what the consequences will be?
No matter how much Elder Sixteen hates those people in Khalkha, he can't watch the country restless.

Yongzheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you worried that the Khalkha Khans will object?"

Elder Sixteen said: "In these years, no matter how many khan kings in Khalkha have fought against each other, they have united externally, whether it is against the imperial court or against the kings of Inner Mongolia."

Yongzheng laughed and said, "What if Zasak, who is under the jurisdiction of Tuxietu Khan, is moved out to build a flag?"

Elder Sixteen was a little confused when he heard it, and suddenly thought of someone who asked, "The emperor is talking about Sai Yinnuo Yanbu?"

The Saiyinnuoyan tribe is the territory of the direct descendants of Genghis Khan. Because Galdan sent troops to Zhungeer in the early years and captured the Saiyinnuoyan tribe, the young prince Ling Ce and his younger brother escaped with his grandmother and defected to the imperial court, and later settled in the capital. Princess Shang became the forehead son-in-law.

By the time the imperial army forced Galdan back, the fiefdoms of the Saiyinnuoyan tribe had already been occupied by other Khan kings, most of which were occupied by Tuxietu Khan.

Tuxietuhan returned to the imperial court, and the imperial court could not let him spit out what he had swallowed.

However, in order to appease the Saiyinnuoyan tribe, the imperial court did not leave behind the princes of the Saiyinnuoyan tribe when they conferred the Zhasaks of the Tuxietu tribe.

For this reason, the princes and princes of the Saiyinnuoyan tribe obtained their titles and formed their own lineage in the Tuxietu Khan tribe.

Tuxietu Khan has the largest territory in Outer Mongolia, but his power is three-legged with the two Khan kings from the two outer Mongolia, which is due to internal instability.

No matter what others mean, Tuxietuhan will never object to the separation of the princes of the Saiyinnuoyan tribe and move them out to build the banner.

Saiyinnuoyan has a Heshuo forehead son-in-law, and behind him is the righteousness of the court, which has become the fourth power of Khalkha.

Even if Chechen Khan and Zasaktu Khan wanted to oppose it, it would only be two to two, with no advantage.

If the Khans of Outer Mongolia were to fight because of the establishment of the flag, it would only weaken the strength of Outer Mongolia, which would be a blessing for the imperial court.

However, if the imperial court establishes a flag in the future, Zasaktuhan may object, but not necessarily at this time.

He had only been the successor of King Khan for two years, and he still sought his status from the court, so he suppressed the princes of the Zhasak Tu tribe. How dare he offend the court at this time?
Sixteen thought of this, and immediately smiled and said: "The emperor is holy, the territory of Saiyinnuoyan tribe has been divided up, and the name of the flag can't be kept, so we can only live under the banner of Tuxietuhan... With this kindness, if we rebuild the flag, we will definitely be punished." The imperial court is grateful and loyal to the emperor even thousands of miles away..."

The affairs of Outer Mongolia have always been Yongzheng's heart disease.

Now that he thought of this idea, he was also very complacent and said: "Since Ling Ce is loyal to the court, the court will naturally not treat him badly... His lineage is originally a descendant of Genghis Khan, the former lord of Khalkha..."

Since the banner was re-established for the Saiyinuoyan tribe, the status of the Saiyinnuoyan tribe was comparable to that of the Tuxietu tribe, the Chechen tribe, and the Zhasaktu tribe, and finally it was able to break the situation where the three Khans of Outer Mongolia covered the sky with their hands.

How could Yongzheng not be happy?

In the face of major military affairs, Hang Seng's frightened and seriously ill matter seemed not so important.

However, Hang Seng is also one of the key figures in order for Khalkha to completely submit to the court.

After thinking about it for a while, Yongzheng passed down an oral order, instructing the sixteenth elder brother to prepare medicinal materials and items, and go to investigate the disease on his behalf.

As for the trivial details of dealing with the servants of the county prince's mansion, Yongzheng just asked a question, and then said that the sixteenth elder brother was in charge.

After coming down from the imperial court, Elder Sixteen had a bit of worry on his face.

It is not a child's play for the Saiyinnuoyan tribe to rebuild the flag. How can the two hundred miles between the Chechen tribe and the Zasaktu tribe be possible?
Mongolians live by grazing. Only a large enough pasture can herd enough livestock and feed enough tribesmen.

Where does not enough come from?
Yongzheng didn't say it, but Elder Sixteen could think of it.

It must be Zasak Tubu.

Zhasak Tuhan needs the support of the imperial court, and the matter of plotting against the emperor's forehead "is revealed", how dare he disobey the imperial court's order at this time?

Brother Sixteen will not be idle and worry about Zasak Tuhan, but worry about Hang Seng.

Now Hang Seng does not have the self-consciousness of being a Mongolian, so he is naturally close to his adoptive father's family and the imperial court; what will happen to Hang Seng when he returns to Khalkha and truly becomes the Khan of Khalkha?

Helping the court to plot Khalkha will be rejected by the tribe; leading the tribe to confront the court will be regarded as a traitor by the court. It is really a dilemma.

Thinking of that simple and honest child, Elder Sixteen's heart ached, and for the first time began to reflect on whether his decision back then was wrong...

*
Three days passed in a blink of an eye.

During this period, Tianyou finished copying the "Book of Filial Piety" and came out of the ancestral hall.

Hang Seng was no longer as weak as before, but when he saw the jujube porridge, he let out a sigh of relief.

On behalf of the emperor, the sixteenth elder brother went to Cao's mansion to visit the disease, and brought a lot of rewards from the emperor to Hang Seng.

Before Brother Sixteen came over, only a few relatives from Cao's family came to visit; the others were afraid of Fan's taboo, so they hesitated about the future.

After all, Hang Seng was "seriously ill", and there were many things involved behind it, so it would be bad if it caused suspicion.There were also those who felt itchy and wanted to come over, but were afraid of causing trouble to the Cao family and Hang Seng, so they all endured it.

After Brother Sixteen came over, the emperor's intentions became clear, so he naturally followed suit, and more people came to Cao's house to visit the sick.

Among them, Tianyou's father-in-law, Prince Jian Yaerjiang, and Hang Seng's nominal uncle, Prince Xian, Yanhuang...

*
yesterday and today.

Tears, I went out yesterday afternoon and worked on the computer for four hours at night, but I didn't come out with a thousand words.In the future, I will really arrange to code during the day. .
