Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 451 Wandering Dragon Dance Blessings and Misfortunes ([-])

Mongolia, Orchukhada, Shengjia is here.

Although it has already entered September and the autumn wind outside the Great Wall is bleak, Kangxi seems to be in a good mood.Seeing that the weather was fine, he took a few ministers and guards to the grassland for small hunting.

With a musket in his hand, Kangxi looked at Ka Erku, the five big and three thick blue-linged guards who followed him, and asked, "Can you walk with me with a gun?"

This Lanling bodyguard was not selected by the noble sons, but was recommended by Jilin General Jueluo Meng Eluo, who was a Manchurian from Ula, Jilin.

The Wula tribe was established in the early years. Although it belonged to the Houjin Dynasty more than a hundred years ago, the people's customs are tough and they are not easy to surrender.

In the 15th year of Kangxi, the imperial court transferred General Ningguta to move to Jilin City. It also meant that the old nest in the northeast would be unstable after three wars.Since then, Jilin Ula has been guarded by heavy troops and has become one of the three places of exile in the Northeast.

General Jueluo Meng Eluo of Jilin recommended Ula warriors to Beijing as bodyguards in order to flatter Kangxi and show Ula people's surrender in a disguised form.

Unexpectedly, this Kaerku Yongwu is brave, but he is a little clueless.

Hearing Kangxi's question, Kaerku looked at the musket in Kangxi's hand and replied, "I can't!"

Next to him were the ministers of the interior, Aling'a, Altai, and Orondai, as well as generals Fano, Aitu, Xingzhao, Niyahanzhu and others from the northern fortress.

After hearing Kaerku's blunt reply, everyone was a little confused.

In the Qing Dynasty, before the Long Live God, the Han people are all subjects, and the 24 Banners of Manchu, Mongolian and Han are all slaves.Except for the queen mother and her old man, who else is qualified to call "I" in front of the imperial court?

Fano came here from Ula, Jilin, and had previously praised Kaerku in front of the imperial court, praising him as "extraordinary".Now seeing that he doesn't even understand the rules of respect and inferiority, his face turns pale with horror and he is speechless.

For this guard with Batulu style and no scheming, Kangxi usually has a little love for him.After all, he is in a high position and thinks too much all day long. It is rare to have such simple-minded people around him.

Then, for some reason today, Kangxi became angry.

Kaerku didn't have the slightest sense of loyalty, and he didn't intend to be effective at all. What did he think of him as an emperor?
Since Dakarku was recommended to Beijing, he was awarded the sixth-rank Lanling guards, and rewarded houses, fields, and servants.Even if you raise a dog with such care, it should be well-fed.

No matter how brave he is, he is a real "Batulu", but he refuses to serve in front of the imperial court, so what is the use of this slave?
Thinking of this, Kangxi's face drooped, and he said angrily: "Everyone is willing to serve before the master, but Kaerku has no intention of serving. If this person is not punished, how can he use others? Come on. People, take this slave with three iron locks, and take back all the houses, slaves, and fields that you have given. Now go to the post immediately and send it back to the general of Jilin. Either give your relatives Ding Jiabing, or give him any difference, and serve at the general of Jilin Serve as you wish!"

Kaerku was still ignorant, and had already been pushed to the ground by the other two guards and went to Ding Dai.

Although Lord Long Live just resigned to the post of bodyguard, but the word has already reached this point, this Kaerku has no intention of death.

No matter how much Jilin General Jueluo Meng'eluo valued Kaerku, he would not dare to use the guard sent back by the imperial court for other purposes.It is estimated that in order to make amends to Lord Long Live, Jueluo Meng Eluo will also invite Kaerku to be executed.

Except for Fano, the military attache from Jilin Fortress who was worried about being implicated by this guard, no one else would take this reckless man seriously.

Looking at the Long Live Lord who turned away in anger, everyone was thinking about whether there was something wrong with the wind direction recently, and whether they should ask Yinzi to find out, so as not to hit the muzzle of the gun again.

Kangxi was very depressed. He had been on the throne for more than [-] years, and he had always loved talents.For those who are brave or talented, they will not stick to one pattern and vigorously promote them.

Those people are also willing to submit to him, the emperor, and be loyal to him.

Are you really old now?You cannot gain the loyalty of others.

Wei Zhu, as the royal servant, came out with him.Seeing that Kangxi lost interest, he followed behind in small steps, feeling a little uneasy in his heart.

Over the past year, Lord Long Live has become more and more unpredictable, how can this not make those who serve the imperial court frightened?

Until he returned to the imperial tent, Kangxi was still angry.Could it be that he really became a loner, and it seemed that there was no one who wanted to be loyal by his side.

In the imperial tent, there is a wooden kang built with boards, covered with inner kang felt.

Kangxi sat on the kang, picked up the milk tea on the kang table, and took a sip.When he put the teacup back, he saw a golden lacquer table instead of the foreign lacquer table on the kang, his face turned livid, and he said loudly: "The same goes for Haizhang and Yanxi's two dog slaves." Where is it? Announce it to me."

These two are doctors of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, among them Hai Zhang is now acting as the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

Wei Zhu trembled in his heart, knowing that the Lord Long Live would lose his title if he appointed someone.No matter how much he was thinking in his heart, he didn't dare to show it on the face, and responded respectfully: "Hey, slave girl obeys the order!"

After bowing and retreating outside the imperial tent, Wei Zhu heaved a sigh of relief and went to the tent where the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs lived.He had only walked a few steps when he heard someone say, "Hey, Old Wei, where is this going?"

Wei Zhu turned around and took a look, which one is it, Elder Sixteen?
Seeing that Elder Sixteen was going to the imperial tent, Wei Zhu hurriedly whispered, "Master Sixteen, it's not that the slaves talk too much, now is not a good time to ask for peace."

Brother Sixteen shook his head, and said: "I just heard about it, and I know that Huang Ama is upset. He either greeted Huang Ama, or asked you to inquire about it."

It's broad daylight, and it's not Xiumu's day, so it's a bit strange that Brother Sixteen came to look for him.Feeling puzzled, Wei Zhu stretched out his hand in a gesture of grabbing cards, and asked with a smile, "Master Sixteen is looking for slaves, is it itchy hands, are you planning to start again?"

Brother Sixteen gave him a sideways look, and said: "It's just for entertainment, and you can still think about it all day long. I'd like to persuade you, you can't be too obsessed with it once in a while. Otherwise, In the future, people will make tricks and catch the pigtails. It is a matter of life and death. Liang Jiugong has been famous for more than 30 years, so what now, is he still sweeping the yard in Jingshan? I know you love yellow and white things, but these things , just save some for fun, even pile them up into a mountain, can they still be used as food and drink?"

Wei Zhu was still smiling at the beginning, but when he listened in suspense, his face was a little grateful, and he said: "The servant is a disabled person, but a dog next to the Long Live Lord, but the Sixteenth Lord is not like an outsider. I usually look down on my servants, but I am willing to teach these things, my servants will remember it in my heart."

"Okay, okay! Let's not talk about those nonsense!" Elder Sixteen waved his hands impatiently, and said, "I'm looking for you, I just want to find out if that condescending Lan Ling guard has really withdrawn?" ? Cao Yong is looking for an errand for his brother. Now there is no guard in the palace. If there is a shortage, it is just right. Otherwise, he will go to the guard camp and the forward camp."

Although there are few contacts in ordinary times, Cao Yong can be regarded as an old friend of Wei Zhu before he made a fortune, and he is close to him when he talks about it.

Hearing that it was the Cao family's business, Wei Zhu was also a bit concerned, and said: "Withdraw, Master Sixteen, you didn't see the expression on the face of the Long Live Lord just now, he really wanted to eat Kaerku raw. Ten Since the sixth master wants to help Master Cao, he needs to go to the guard's office to say hello earlier. Now the guard is short of gold and expensive, and the adults over there are also planning to go late."

Elder Sixteen heard this, nodded and said: "Well, if that's the case, then I'm going to find Fu Erdan. It's just Lan Ling, since I'm interested in it, let's see who dares to come out and fight with you without knowing the color."

The two said goodbye, Wei Zhu went to the residence of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to pass the decree, and Elder Sixteen went to look for Fu Erdan.

After Wei Zhu delivered the decree, Kangxi gradually calmed down the anger in his heart, and he was a little bit depressed.

He called a servant, brought over the papers on the imperial case, and sat cross-legged on the kang to approve the papers.

When he saw Jiang Ning weaving Cao Yin's name, Kangxi hurriedly picked out the book first.In the early years, Cao Yin also served as his bodyguard, and no matter what the errands were, he would always agree to them loudly.

The monarch and his ministers are friends among children, Cao Yin is always loyal.

Thinking of the past, of Nanny Sun's kindness, and of Cao Yin's reverent eyes when he was young, Kangxi's face showed a bit of warmth.

Time really flies, and more than 50 years have passed in the blink of an eye.

He opened Cao Yin's notebook and read it line by line, but the more he read, the more he frowned, and the more he read, the more embarrassing he became.

In addition to paying respects to Kangxi, Cao Yin also said that "feeling that he is exhausted and his life is not guaranteed, he resigns from Jiangning weaving. He would rather return to Beijing and be an old guard in front of the imperial court. With little effort, he will die in the capital."

Cao Yin was born in the 15th year of Shunzhi, four years younger than Kangxi, and is 57 this year.

When Cao Yin was seriously ill, Kangxi sent bodyguards to go south with the imperial doctor, and the Ministry of Internal Affairs kept a record of Cao Yin's condition.

The last time Cao Yin was summoned was after the Longevity Festival last year, and Cao Yin was indeed an old man.

In the past, the monarchs and ministers were all yellow-mouthed and childish when they first met, but now they are white-haired old men.

Unconvinced, Kangxi's arms trembled slightly, and his mood was a little sad.In the past six months, he has suffered from hand tremors, and if there are too many manuscripts, he will feel sore and unbearable.

He put the notebook on the table, rubbed his arms, picked up the imperial pen, pondered for a moment, and wrote on the back of the notebook: "I am in good health, and my complexion is good. The Zhunqing's play, and the quick recommendation of an official, is all written."

Beijing, Fangjia Hutong, Dong E's house.

Jue Luoshi sat on the kang, his face was full of solemnity.Shen Momo served tea, but she was full of joy.I can't complain that I heard magpies when I opened the door today. This is really a crowd of distinguished guests.

Besides Chuyu sitting beside the kang, there is also Jinghui's aunt Yiergenjueluoshi. Both of them came here today to discuss Jinghui's marriage.

Although Cao's family is a respectable family, Cao Yong and these brothers and elders have been inquired about before, and they originally wanted to get married.However, since there was an accident at home, it is really difficult to match "the door is wrong, the household is wrong".

Although he has been recuperating in the inner house, the old man is not deaf.She also listened to Nanny Shen talk about the fact that the second master of the Cao family came here to help.

Although the old man is upright, he is not rigid. Thinking of his granddaughter's relationship with the Cao family, he turns a blind eye.She also thought about it in her heart, if she really got married, she would send her granddaughter to her aunt or uncle's house to get married.

If her granddaughter's life was delayed because of her old woman, she would have no face to see her son or daughter-in-law after she died.

However, this marriage had a prospect, and the old man hesitated again.

For Jinghui Xu Zicao's family, Ergenjue Luoshi is very happy.Ever since Chu Yu mentioned it a few days ago, she discussed with her husband to take her niece home and marry her from Fucha's house.

Fu Nai was just looking for a reason to have a good relationship with Cao Yong, so he had nothing against him.

Now that he is middle-aged, when he thinks of the past when he was young, it is mostly his fault, and he feels guilty towards the Cao family.Now, it would be a pleasure to make the two families become in-laws again through the matter of Jinghui.

Therefore, he also told his wife that he wanted to prepare a back-up dowry for his niece, and it should only be regarded as his own daughter leaving the cabinet.

Jinghui is his own niece and niece, and Yiergenjue Luoshi always thinks about it in his heart.In the early years, after my sister and brother-in-law passed away, I thought about receiving the one by my side.

It's just that Jinghui is from Dong E's family after all, and there are grandmothers and uncles and aunts on top, so it's not up to relatives from her mother's family to raise her.

In the spring, when the Jueluo family knocked on the door, Dong E's family changed, and the Yiergen Jueluo family was also going to take over their niece.Piansheng Jinghui is a filial child who refuses to leave her grandmother's side, so nothing happens.

Now, seeing Jue Luo groaning silently, Ergen Jue Luo thought of the old man's concerns, and said: "Old lady, you have seen the second son of the Cao family before. Not bad young man. The Cao family is also a famous family, good heirs. Jinghui can find such a husband's family, even if the elder sister knows it underground, she should be gratified. Don't worry about the dowry, I am her own aunt, these I didn't take care of her for a year, so it's necessary to help her with the dowry..."

When Ergen Jue Luo said that he wanted to help with the dowry, Jue Luo frowned slightly, and wanted to refuse, but remembering the life-long event related to his granddaughter, the old man sighed, nodded slowly, and said: "In that case, I still have the audacity to bother my aunt..."
