Zhen Huan Reborn as Langya to Cure Yi Syndrome

Chapter 83 Buddha's Hand Princess

Su Lujun was so sad about Hongli's attitude that she couldn't help crying.

"Sister Chunfei, you can't cry after giving birth." Others were trying to persuade Su Lujun.

Zhen Huan also comforted her, "The emperor is just worried about the affairs of the previous dynasty, how could he not like Jing Yan?"

"The emperor dislikes Yongzhang for being stupid, and now Jingyan is born with a disease. It's all my fault. Otherwise, how could it be that my child is not good?" Su Lujun was depressed and heartbroken.

Zhen Huan didn't know how to persuade her, so she could only say, "Don't be too sad, Lujun. Your health is more important. Thinking too much after giving birth can easily leave you with illness."

Nianqin first made a wrong decision, resulting in 40,000 casualties among the Qing army, and then he retreated into the camp, spending the whole day drinking.

When the news reached Hongli, he was so angry that he went crazy in the Yangxin Palace. Since he ascended the throne, he had never suffered such a tragic defeat.

"Naiqin, Zhang Guangsi, I want to execute them to calm the troops."

Fuheng asked for battle, but Hongli pretended not to notice and just left him alone, thinking about the right candidate for general.

Everyone in the harem was powerless about what happened in the previous dynasty, and they just wanted to do their best to comfort Su Lujun.

Wei Yanwan brought the newly made bird's nest to the Palace of Tranquil Longevity, wanting to see Hongli and find out how he felt.

Fu Heng hesitated for a long time, then walked up to Wei Yanwan and said, "Can I ask Madam Lingpin to do me a favor?"

"If Lord Fuheng needs me for anything, just tell me. I will do my best to help you." Wei Yanwan agreed to Fuheng without thinking. People from the Fucha family would not make weird requests that would embarrass her.

Fu Heng cupped his hands and said, "The battle in Jinchuan is at a stalemate, and our army has suffered heavy casualties. I requested to go to Jinchuan, but the emperor did not allow it. Could you please ask Concubine Ling to inform the queen and ask her to help me think of a solution?"

"Okay, I will definitely convey your message to you."

"Thank you, Madam Lingpin."

"It's nothing. I have always been well cared for by the Queen. This is just a small thing."

In Changchun Palace, Wei Yanwan conveyed Fu Heng's request for help to Zhen Huan in detail.

Gao Xiyue said worriedly, "But the harem is not allowed to interfere in government affairs. If my sister rashly makes suggestions on such an important matter as the dispatch of troops and surrenders, what if the emperor gets angry?"

Zhen Huan smiled and comforted Gao Xiyue, "The emperor doesn't want Fu Heng to go. The main reason is because of me. When the time is right, I can express my feelings to the emperor."

When Hongli had some free time, he came to Changchun Palace to visit Zhen Huan and Yongcong. When he walked into the palace, he saw Zhen Huan and Jingse wiping a jade Buddha statue.

"Your Majesty, this is the Mid-Autumn Festival gift I prepared for your mother. How is it?"

"The Empress Dowager has been worshipping Buddha for many years, so she will like it. The Empress is thoughtful."

Zhen Huan added: "In such troubled times, I hope the Buddha can protect our Qing Dynasty and free us from the suffering of war as soon as possible."

Hongli never believed in ghosts and gods. He said, "Gods and Buddhas are useless. To end the war, we need elite soldiers and strong generals."

Jingse said: "It is not difficult to recruit elite soldiers and generals. There are no useless generals under the Emperor's rule. Isn't my uncle a general carefully trained by the Emperor?

Zhen Huan smiled and said, "Your uncle is indeed capable, but unfortunately he has a petty sister who doesn't understand the principle of serving the public. She holds him back and only wants him to be a coward, not wanting him to seek revenge."

Hongli could tell that the mother and daughter were trying to trick him, and said helplessly, "He is a child I have watched grow up. The last time I let him out to train, I was always worried."

"The Queen doesn't know the situation in Jinchuan. The terrain in Jinchuan is dangerous and different from that in the Central Plains. There is a kind of war fortress in Shaluoben that is indestructible. Even dozens of red cannons cannot take down one. And there are more than 3,000 such war fortresses in Jinchuan."

"Two generals have been killed and more than 70,000 soldiers have been killed or wounded." Hongli felt distressed. He had been doing well for a long time, but finally he suffered a setback.

"If a Saker Falcon is kept in a cage with its wings broken, will it still be the Saker Falcon that the Emperor likes? If a general carefully trained by the royal family has to choose the terrain and the opponent when he goes to war, is he still worthy of being supported by the people?"

Hongli thought for a moment and finally nodded, "Forget it, I will order the veteran general Yue Zhongqi to go with him."

Zhen Huan was delighted and thanked Hongli. "Thank you, Your Majesty. I hope Your Majesty is in a good mood to appreciate the gift I prepared."

Hongli picked up the Buddha statue on the table and looked at it inch by inch. "The color of this jade is warm and transparent, deep and rich in layers, and the carving is also lifelike. The appearance of the treasure is solemn, and the Empress Dowager will like it."

"Does the Emperor like it?"

Finally, Hongli's gaze stopped at the Buddha's left hand, which was lying across his abdomen, with his fingers connected.

Hongli came to his senses and said, "I came to see you once, and you plotted against me twice."

"I congratulate His Majesty on having another auspicious child. The Sixth Princess was born with Buddha's hands, which must be a sign that the heavens will bless the Qing Dynasty."

Jingse returned to the hall, took out a pen and paper, and based on Hongli's words, he deduced the route for attacking Jinchuan on paper, having a lot of fun.

Hongli issued an edict that the Sixth Princess was born with Buddha's hand, which was a good omen, and he doubled the reward for Concubine Chun and Palace Zhongcui.

Su Lujun, who had been crying every day, finally smiled and no longer had to worry about her daughter suffering in the future.

Soon after, Fuheng and Yue Zhongqi arrived in Jinchuan with an army of 70,000. They carefully studied the local terrain and enemy tactics and worked out an ingenious battle plan.

When the war broke out, Fu Heng led the soldiers to fight bravely. Under his encouragement, the soldiers were in high spirits and made great progress.

On the other hand, Zhen Huan and Jing Se in the palace were also keeping an eye on the war situation. They prayed for Fu Heng, hoping that he would return safely.

Finally, after an arduous battle, the Qing army won a great victory, and Sha Luoben's letter of surrender reached Hongli's hands.

At this time, Hongli had calmed down, calculated the gains and losses of the war, and finally decided to accept Sha Luoben's surrender.

The army withdrew and returned victoriously.

Fu Heng's heroic performance was highly recognized by Hongli, who praised him highly in the court and gave him generous rewards.

Hongli: You are worthy of being the children I taught. You all should praise me.

After the Jinchuan War subsided, Hongli could finally relax and spend his days strolling around the Imperial Garden, the Harem, the Xiefang Palace and the Shangshufang.

Jinzhong walked into the Yangxin Palace and reported in a low voice: "Your Majesty, I did not find Concubine Ling in Yongshou Palace."

"Then it's Concubine Jia."

"I have not found Concubine Jia in Qixiang Palace."

"Where's Shupin?"

"Shupin is not in Chuxiu Palace." Jinzhong's voice was as thin as a mosquito. He was really afraid that the emperor would chop off his head in a rage.

"Empress Hui."

Panting, Jinzhong ran back to the Yangxin Palace and knelt on the ground in fear: "Noble Concubine Hui is not in Xianfu Palace." After thinking for a while, he added: "Concubine Yu is not in Xianfu Palace either."

Hongli was furious and wondered if anyone could tell him where his concubines were.

Jingyang Palace.

Amidst the sounds of music, fragrant breezes, and laughter, Hongli's concubines gathered in groups of three or five, drinking tea, chatting, singing, dancing, and playing mahjong.

"I told you, the Emperor can't find it in Jingyang Palace."
