Qing court ladies

Chapter 27
At the beginning of the 29th year of Kangxi, Galdan invaded the Keerke Grassland and was supported by Tsarist Russia. Galdan said that he would "give up" Yaksa and would attack Khalkha, causing Tushetu Khan and Chechen Khan to ask Kangxi for help.

In May, Kangxi warned Tsarist Russia not to interfere in China's internal affairs. On the other hand, he ordered Alani, Minister of the Lifan Academy, to prepare for the frontier and call Horqin, Karaqin and other troops to Alani's army for dispatch.In June, Galdan entered the area east of the Wuerhui River.Shangshu Alani led the army to intercept and was defeated.

Galdan entered the land of Ujumqin.The defeat of Wuerhuihe made Kangxi realize that Galdan should not be underestimated. If he is not completely defeated, there will be endless troubles.Therefore, Kangxi decided to conscript himself.On the second day of the seventh lunar month, Emperor Kangxi appointed Prince Yu Fuquan as the General of Fuyuan, Prince Yinti as Deputy, and Prince Gong Changning as General of Anbei, Prince Jian Yabu, and Prince Xinjun Eza as Deputy, and leaving Xifeng Tong Guogang, Tong Guowei, Suo'etu, Amita, Dutong Sunu, Lakda, Peng Chun, Axitan, Nuomai, the ministers of the interior, Miao Qina and Yang Dai, the commanders of the guards, Bandar Shah, the commanders of the forwards. Mai Tuju is the counselor of military affairs.

Kangxi of Qianqing Palace is stroking his sharp sword and sitting on the bluestone steps.Su Yue took Linxiang's tea and signaled Li Dequan to go down before stepping forward.

"Long Live Lord, let's moisten your throat." Ever since the decision to conquer Galdan in person, both the inner court and the previous court have been extremely busy these days. Everyone has already prepared for the army to go out tomorrow. In the main hall of Qianqing Palace, Kangxi was sitting alone.

Kangxi pressed the tip of the sword against Su Yue's chest and asked, "Are you afraid of death?"

Su Yue was frightened by Kangxi's sudden action, took a step back, her face turned pale, and said honestly, "I'm afraid, how can a person not be afraid of death?"

Kangxi quickly retracted the sword back into its sheath, threw the sword away, stepped forward to take a sip of tea, "Then are you willing to join me in the conquest?"

Su Yue looked at Kangxi suspiciously and asked back, "Why do you ask that? Could it be that Lord Long Live doesn't let slaves go?"

Kangxi looked at Suyue, his eyes deepened, and he turned around to look at the plaque on the main hall of Qianqing Palace, "Suyue, do you remember what I told you once? No matter where the battlefield is, there is always blood, and I don't want you to stay behind." Here, I don’t want you to go with me.”

"Long Live Lord, Long Live Lord's personal conquest is not also a body of flesh and blood, so noble as Long Live Lord can go, why can't servants go?" Su Yue was a little excited. She is Kangxi's maid, so she should follow Kangxi, this is her duty.

Kangxi's hands behind his back tightened, and he sighed leisurely, "Forget it, it's easy to hide a spear in the dark, but it's hard to defend against it. If you follow me, I can rest assured."

Kangxi's army set off, and Kangxi ordered: the left army goes out of Gubeikou, and the right army goes out of Xifengkou, and they detour northward from the left and right wings to eliminate the Galdan army in the Ujumqin area.Kangxi visited Boluo and Tun in person to conduct.At the same time, General Shengjing and General Jilin were ordered to lead their respective troops to the West Liaohe River and Taoer River to join the Horqin Mongolian soldiers and cooperate with the main force of the Qing army to fight.The right-hand army marched northward to Ujimqin and encountered the Galdan army. The battle was unfavorable and retreated southward.Galdan took advantage of the momentum and drove southward, crossed the Saramulun River, and arrived in Ulan Butong.The left army of the Qing Dynasty also advanced to the south of Ulan Butong. Kangxi urgently ordered the right army to stop withdrawing to the south, join forces with the left army, and attack Galdan in Ulan Butong together. Galdan's way back.

Outside the big tent, there was a lot of gunfire, and Su Yue held the teapot tightly in her hand, with a gloomy expression on her face.

"Director Li, what's the matter with Long Live?" Suyue was forbidden to go out by Kangxi's order, and Li Dequan was on the surface to accompany and protect her all the time, but in fact it was to restrict Suyue's actions.

Li Dequan sat on the footrest, looking at Suyue who was walking back and forth, dazzled, "Suyue, can you rest for a while, Prince Yu, Eldest Brother, and the palace guards are all with Long Live Lord, everything will be fine."

Su Yue's heart is always restless and restless. These days, accompanying Kangxi on the expedition, Su Yue looked at the corpses all over the floor. The blood dried up and was covered with new ones. The living cheered and cheered, the dead were run over by horseshoe wheels, and the scene of the dead without a whole body, Su Yue finally saw the scene. The soldiers with missing arms and legs on the battlefield at night cried and wailed, Su Yue couldn't sleep all night, every day When Kangxi went out the next day, Suyue was worried. Although she knew that Kangxi had lived a long time, Suyue felt uncomfortable when she got hurt.For more than a year, Kangxi has devoted all his thoughts to Suyue, imagining Suyue everywhere, Suyue is not a stone, although there is no love, companionship, love, and family affection.

What's more, even those unfamiliar soldiers, Su Yue felt uncomfortable. She used to read those poems and books, saying that the general died in a hundred battles, and the strong man returned after ten years, and she still felt tragic in her heart, but now she only felt uncomfortable.

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live!" the shouts outside the tent shook the sky, Su Yue hurriedly opened the curtain and rushed out to meet Kangxi.

Kangxi rode a tall horse, the armor on his body was stained with blood, but his whole body was full of vigor and pride, and he was extremely proud.

Su Yue looked at the shining blood on the armor, her feet were weak, and she almost fell, but fortunately Li Dequan followed and gave a timely support, Su Yue hurried forward, her eyes were reddish and she yelled "Long live God"

Kangxi laughed and got off his horse, leading Suyue into the big tent.

"Long live Lord, what's the matter with the blood on your body? Where is the injury? Didn't Manager Li say that many people were with Long live Lord? How could Long live Lord be hurt?" Su Yue didn't care about Kangxi's pride, her eyes were full of bright red And the bloody smell permeating Kangxi's body.

Kangxi looked down at him and laughed, "Haha, these are the blood of Ge Erdan's rebels. I finally let out a sigh of relief today. The breath that Ge Erdan has made me suffocate for many years is relieved today. Wait until Ge Erdan is gone, and this breath in my heart will go smoothly."

Su Yue didn't care about Kangxi's big talk, after taking off all the armor and clothes on Kangxi's body, and after making sure that there were no injuries on Kangxi's body, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Kangxi hugged Suyue and lowered his voice, "You are worried about me"

Su Yue didn't know how to answer, she closed her eyes and nodded, and chose to tell the truth, "Su Yue is worried, afraid that the Long Live Lord will be injured, sick, and afraid that the blood on Long Live Lord's body will be her own..."

Su Yue hated herself for being useless, when she saw Kangxi covered in blood, Su Yue was terrified, now she knew that Kang Xi was fine, but Su Yue's body went limp, and her tensed nerves began to lose strength.

"Stop talking, I understand." Kangxi hurriedly interrupted Suyue's words, that's enough, this one sentence is enough.

"Long live, Prince Yu, elder brother, please see me," Li Dequan reported at the entrance of the tent.

Su Yue wiped away the tears that flowed out of her face at some unknown time, tidied up Kangxi's clothes, turned and left to prepare tea.

"My brother (son) pays homage to the emperor (Huang Ama)" Fuquan and Yinti came in and saluted with smiles on their faces.

"Get up," Kangxi called out with a smile, and said to Yinti, "I'm very pleased that you performed well today, and I want to set a good example for your younger brothers."

Yinti smiled honestly on his tanned face, "I obey the order, I will definitely work harder to share the worries of Huang Ama."

Kangxi looked at Yinti with satisfaction, and said to Fuquan, "You are his uncle, and he is under your command, you have to train him well." Fu got up again and walked in front of Yinti, poked Yinti's chest with his index finger, and held back Smiling warning, "Building meritorious deeds is not done with your mouth, not with brute force, but with your brain. If you don't change your temper, your temper is impulsive, and you don't listen to orders, something will happen sooner or later, you have to keep in mind."

Yinyu's face changed, "My son will always remember Huang Ama's teachings" but he didn't care about it in his heart, he was full of achievements and great ambitions.

Kangxi looked at Yinzhen's humble face, but he was still the same in his bones, thinking that he would only understand if he suffered a loss, and he was afraid that the loss would be too big, and there would be no way out.

Suyue looked at the tent and was angry and stagnant, busy serving tea to Fuquan and Yinti, and smiled as Yinti held up the tea, "Brother, the border is dry, this tea is just right to get rid of the fire"

Fuquan smiled and took a sip, "It really is good tea, just to soothe your throat." Su Yue smiled gratefully before leaving the camp.

Kangxi's big tent was set up in a mountain depression, and Suyue took Gui'an to the stables. These days, Suyue always likes to come and ride horses. I am sad and emotional, and my body is a little unbearable. Running on horseback can be used as exercise and joy.

"Aunt, you have something on your mind." Gui'an accompanied Su Yue to ride a horse, seeing Su Yue's expression was not right even though she was riding a horse today.

Su Yue shook her head, she had nothing on her mind, she was just a little bit worried, Su Yue always felt that her heartbeat was messed up today, which made Su Yue feel sad.Seeing that Suyue didn't want to speak, Gui'an didn't make a sound, so he got off his horse and took Suyue's rein, and went back to the camp.

"Long Live Lord, the army has won a great victory today, and the soldiers are making bonfires in the camp. Long Live Lord, let's go and have a look. I'm so happy." Li Dequan ran in with a smile.

Kangxi was practicing in the sand table, and Suyue was accompanying him. The two were talking. Hearing Li Dequan's words, Suyue's face was full of joy. Kangxi dropped the small flag in his hand, and stepped to the front of the case, "Xiaosheng today, soldier The morale is great, it is good to celebrate, can you arrange a night watch?"

Li Dequan stepped forward and said with a smile, "Prince Yu has made arrangements, and the soldiers will take turns to ensure that nothing will go wrong."

Kangxi put down his tea, looked at Su Yue eager to try, and laughed loudly, "Come on, let's celebrate with these heroes of the Qing Dynasty, and celebrate after I destroy Ge Erdan, and the class master returns to the court."
