Reborn in the last years of Kangxi

Chapter 977
Now that the return date of the Khalkha kings has been set, Cao Yong still has a private matter to take care of.

That was the request of Gelke Yanpil, the son of King Zasak Tuhan, to arrange for him to have a meal with Hang Seng alone.It stands to reason that Ge Like Yanpile went to Beijing with the great lama for a month, so he should have arranged for the reunion of father and son.

It's just that this time when he went to Beijing, it was different from last year. He followed other Khalkha princes and was placed in the lower part of the Lifan Court;

Now, Gelke Yanpil and Hang Seng are both in the paddock, and have seen it twice from a distance, but they have never been able to speak.

The tent that Hang Seng put up now is next to Hongli's lower place, not far from the imperial tent.As the son of the vassal prince, Ge Yanke Yanpile always wanted to avoid suspicion.

So, he looked for Cao Yong several times, but Cao Yong was either busy with errands or returned to Beijing to celebrate his mother's birthday. Until today when Cao Yong returned to camp, Ge Yanke Yanpi Le didn't see Cao Yong.

Cao Yongyuan also thought that there were many people in the paddock. He is a second-rank official of the imperial court, so it is not appropriate to have more contact with foreign feudal clans. He thought about returning to Beijing after the siege.

Who would have thought that Kangxi had set a return date for the Khalkha kings.

As a result, it is necessary to arrange for Hang Seng to meet with Ge Keyan Pile as soon as possible.

Thinking of this, Cao Yong felt a little uncomfortable.He was also a son who had been brought up through hard work. He had a father who hadn't raised a child for a day. With his blood that couldn't be cut off, he was so confident.

Even if he is the son of King Khan of Mongolia, even if he has the title of county king granted by the imperial court, what's the big deal?

Cao Yong has been to the Zhasaktu Banner; he has also seen the King Khan's Mansion, which is not even the mansion of the dignitaries in the capital.

Cao Yong was in a daze here, Elder Sixteen had stopped talking, looked at him with some hesitation and said: "Fu Ruo, could it be that the treasury of the household department really can't move the money? See, it's difficult for you."

As he said this, Elder Brother Seventeen and Yidu Li both looked at Cao Yong.

After hearing this, Cao Yong quickly waved his hands and said, "It's not because of this, I was thinking about it."

It was beyond Cao Yong's expectation that Ge Yanke Yanpil came to court with the great lama.Khalkha is in Outer Mongolia, far away from the hinterland of the Central Plains, unlike Horqin, which is Inner Mongolia.

According to the rules, the kings of Inner Mongolia come to court every year, either when they enter Beijing, or in Rehe, or during Kangxi’s tour outside the Great Wall; the kings of Khalkha visit each other in shifts, depending on the distance, some three years, some See you in five years.

The last time we said goodbye, Cao Yong thought that he would not have anything to do with this prince before Hang Seng; unexpectedly, we will meet again in less than a year.

Hearing what Cao Yong said, everyone still looked at him.

In their view, it will not be a trivial matter to make Cao Yong run away.But they do not know, Cao Yong just regret it.I regret that I was blinded by the word "blood relationship", and I was too lenient to this Ge Yan Ke Yan Pi Le.

Hang Seng has been raised in Cao's family for more than ten years. Could it be that because of the word "blood relationship", he must abandon his relatives here and take over the so-called King Khan's Mansion?
If Hang Seng is willing to pay it back, if Hang Seng is a little bit unwilling, Cao Yong will never allow Ge Yankeyan Pile to control Hang Seng's life in the name of "father".

It seems that before Hengsheng grows up and has his own decision, he can't let Ge Yanke Yanpil "recognize his son", which takes up the righteousness of "father".

In this Confucian teaching, the two characters of loyalty and filial piety cannot be violated.

Cao Yong regards Hang Seng as his own son, and he will not be willing to arrange Hang Seng's life for his own peace of mind.

Seeing that everyone was still looking at him, Cao Yong said: "It's really a family matter, nothing else."

Although several people in the seat are familiar with each other, Cao Yong still doesn't intend to talk about Hang Seng's affairs.

Going young and frankly arranged for Hang Seng to meet with Ge Yanke Yanpil, Cao Yong already regretted it at this time.

If I had made more careful arrangements at the beginning, Elder Sixteen would not have paid attention to Hang Seng.Although the two have a deep friendship, but for the sake of his daughter's love, Elder Sixteen helped Hang Seng get Khan's throne, which is also possible.

Perhaps, in the eyes of outsiders, being so noble is the most appropriate way of life for Hang Seng.

However, even if he inherited the title, if he could not stay in Beijing smoothly, he would be separated from his flesh and blood.

Hang Seng is pure-hearted, well-behaved, filial to his parents, and close to his brothers and sisters, so he may not be willing to bear the pain of "birth and separation".

Seeing that Cao Yong insisted not to say anything, it was difficult for others to say anything.

The sixteenth elder brother and the seventeenth elder brother went to take care of the trivial matters, only Yi Duli did not leave immediately, and dawdled until the end, when the two elder brothers left, he lowered his voice and said: "If Fu is not worried about the banquet at the uncle's house No good banquet? If Fu Ruo refuses after Longkodo or that Mrs. Li really propose marriage, it will be a disgrace to the uncle's house."

When Cao Yong heard this, he was a little surprised: "My lord also knows that the uncle's mansion is looking after his son-in-law?"

Yi Duli raised his eyebrows, and said: "Fu Ruo forgot about the three boys in my family? The eldest is sixteen this year, and has not discussed marriage yet. I also know that someone mentioned our family in front of Li Si'er. It's just that the woman Knowing that my old lady is an old aunt who came from the Hesheli family, I have a guilty conscience and dare not make this relationship."

Although Yi Duli is only of the third grade now, and his title is only a captain of a light car, but in terms of family status, he has a prime minister father and a daughter of a prime minister's family, which is no worse than the Cao family.

No matter what the Cao family's title is now, in the eyes of the real big Manchu family, they are just upstarts, and the slaves who were born in Baoyi have gained dignity because of the rewards given by the emperor.

Compared with those real lords' families, the Dazong led several hereditary surnames in Manchuria, the Cao family's foundation is still too weak.

"Tianyou was in poor health when he was young, and my father had a will to ask Tianyou to marry early." Cao Yong said calmly, "My wife and I obeyed our father's order, and never thought of asking Tianyou to marry early."

Because of the mention of Cao Yin, Yi Duli didn't think about it, just nodded and said: "Since the boss has passed away, they can't say anything." Speaking of this, he also breathed a sigh of relief for Cao Yong, and lowered his voice. He raised his voice and said: "Even if there is no death from the boss, Fu Ruo has to find a way to avoid it. You must not agree to this marriage just because Longkodo is famous for a while. The prosperity will decline, and the strong will be humiliated. Regardless of Long Kedo How could Kodo manage to exploit his own interests, his personal morals are unchecked, his husband and wife have become enemies, father and son have turned against each other, and the family has been ruined."

Yi Duli has also been in the officialdom for many years, so he understands what is meant by "disaster comes from the mouth", and he can say this to Cao Yong without any taboo, and he really does not treat Cao Yong as an outsider.

Cao Yong had to accept this favor.

He bowed and bowed, and said seriously: "Your Excellency, Cao Yong is very grateful for your advice."

He was so serious, Yi Duli felt a little embarrassed, waved his hand, and said: "I am older than you in terms of seniority and age, but you have taken care of me a lot these years, and I don't have the cheek to accept it. Now I am just talking Two sentences, what is Furuo doing?"

Although this Yi Duli is a bit romantic, he treats people with sincerity.

Unlike those officials from humble backgrounds, he has no ambition in the officialdom, but only strives to improve his rank and maintain a decent appearance among his clan.

Unexpectedly, his official career would be full of ups and downs, three promotions and three demotions, and he didn't get mixed up with the head of the House of Internal Affairs until he was in the middle of the year.

If it were someone else, when they got to this position, they would either earn money to get benefits, or use it as a springboard, send them out to the banner camp, and return to Beijing after a few years.

Yi Duli didn't have any ideas, and talked about two things with Cao Yong, which is a good job for the Ministry of Internal Affairs.There are many well-known managers, as well as the princes and clan princes who are on errands, and there are countless serious jobs.

After sending Yi Duli away, Cao Yong wanted to ask someone to find Hang Seng, but when he looked outside, it was already dark, so he gave up the idea.

Around the imperial camp, at night, the security is even stricter. Even if Cao Yong comes in person, he may not be able to get close...

*
Early the next morning, Cao Yong got up at dawn and went directly to the school grounds of the guards.

According to what Hang Seng said before, Hang Seng and Hongli would come here every morning to practice martial arts.He also knew that he lived in a lot of hands, and he was afraid that his father would find him cheap, so he made a special trip to tell Cao Yong about this.

When we arrived at the school grounds, the sky was still gray, and we saw a few people practicing with Hongli and Hang Seng in the school grounds.

Hongli and Hengsheng held knives with scabbards in their hands, shouting and waving them lively.

Cao Yong looked at it, and his hands were itchy. When he was in Jiangning Mansion in the early years, he also practiced his hands and feet so diligently every day, just in order not to become the young master with the strength of his hands and feet.

Hang Seng was much stronger than himself at that time.Hongli is also a little less delicate, and his expression is much sharper in the "confrontation".

It was only when the last opponent, who was also stained with limestone, retreated to the side, that Hongli and Hang Sheng withdrew their swords.

Hongli didn't see joy at all, instead he frowned, and said to Hang Sheng: "Cao Lin, they are tied up, they dare not use weapons, let alone force them with empty hands, let's make a move, it will be more realistic."

These people in front of them are all guards at the guard office, guarding the imperial front.If they were really six against two and lost to the two young boys, then no matter what their backgrounds were, they would have been replaced by the guards long ago.

Hang Seng waved it for a long time, and when he was playing vigorously, he wished to play for a while, so he nodded without hesitation.It's not that he is short-sighted and wants to offend others; but as a companion, he has fought against Hongli a lot in the past six months, all of which are fists, kicks, riding and shooting, and there is no time when the soldiers confront each other, but he didn't take this too seriously superior.

He touched his scabbard, looked at Hongli and said, "Fourth Master, how many times will you win or lose?"

Hongli looked at his confident appearance, and snorted coldly: "Of course it's a knife, do you want to cut more?"

Hang Seng laughed foolishly, and swept over the bodyguards standing beside him.

They wore short jackets of navy blue with light lime prints on them.Some are on the arms, legs and feet, while others are on the chest or abdomen.

Needless to say, it is Hang Seng who left the lime print on the fatal part.

Under the training of the two Mongolian followers, Hang Seng learned the true skills of fighting wolves and subduing tigers in private, and Tong Hongli learned in the palace the disciplined sword kung fu, which is so many steps higher...
