After the live broadcast, the fourth elder brother changed to take the group favorite script

The first time I ran into Nan Huairen's fourth elder brother, I didn't take it to heart. The palace is so big, and his life is sometimes very regular, which is not unusual.The second or third time I met him again, even if the fourth elder brother was dull, he would realize that something was wrong.In particular, Nan Huairen always asked him about artillery, intentionally or unintentionally.

He also wouldn't directly ask about sensitive topics such as Dai Zi's progress, but made indirect remarks under the guise of caring.Even in order to arouse the interest of the fourth elder brother, he took the initiative to explain to the fourth elder brother what he knew about artillery.

Although he could hear some novel things from his mouth, the fourth elder brother still felt troubled. He complained to the eldest elder brother and the others, "Big brother, second brother, what do you think Nan Huairen wants to do?"

"What do you want to do, I think he just has no good intentions. Fourth brother, you don't need to pay attention to him. Next time he comes to you, you just push it on me." Say something.

The prince also said: "Fourth brother, don't worry, I will mention this to Huang Amati when I get back." Nan Huairen's attitude was indeed suspicious, he had to think about it.

He knew clearly that blindly hiding was nothing at all, so he decided to test the other party, to see if Nan Huairen was really coming at their firecrackers as he thought.

The prince is a man of action, he went to find Kangxi that day, Kangxi was silent for a moment, and finally agreed to the prince's plan.

When it was time for Muxiu again, the prince sent someone to find Nan Huairen.The folding fan in his right hand tapped the palm of his left hand lightly, and he said casually: "Master Nan, I remember that Master Nan also understands artillery technology. He also understands artillery, but unfortunately this person is just a showman and fell into trouble after only two months, I don’t know if Mr. Nan would like to go with Gu to find out.”

Yinfeng's attitude was the same as before, and Nan Huairen didn't find anything wrong.He was very happy to be invited to visit the experiment of the Qing Dynasty, but on the face he shook his head and refused.

"His Royal Highness, I belong to Qin Tianjian, and I'm not in charge of artillery. Besides, I don't know much about artillery, so I'm afraid I can't help you." Facing the crown prince, Nan Huairen put his position very low.It's just that he still remembers the matter of resenting the prince for rejecting him before, but his words are not very polite.

Opening the folding fan in a flash, the prince's expression was displeased, "Nan Huairen, I'm just ordering and not discussing with you. Why, you are eating my Daqing's salary, but you are not willing to share the worries of Daqing."

This is a bit serious, Nan Huairen's official career will be over if he doesn't do well.Nan Huairen was not worried, originally he was worried that it was a trap set by the crown prince and deliberately invited, but Yinfeng's attitude dispelled his opinion.

It seems that their research has really encountered a bottleneck, otherwise the crown prince would not have talked to him like this.It's good to meet a bottleneck, he can just take this opportunity to see that 'weapon expert' from the Qing Dynasty.

It is true that Nan Huairen had selfish intentions, but it was not the 'disloyalty' that the prince and the others suspected.Kangxi was a good emperor, he wanted to be a wise emperor, and he was also an ambitious emperor.If Dai Zi succeeds, the emperor's heart will be overjoyed, and he will definitely use Dai Zi again.

It will be a matter of time before Dai Zi becomes the emperor's confidant with Dai Zi's ability, he just doesn't want to see someone surpass him in the emperor's heart.In the past, chatting with the emperor was Nan Huairen's qualification, and it was also the basis for him to gain a foothold in the Qing Palace. If he no longer won the emperor's trust or his trust was greatly reduced, then his life in the palace would also decline. .

He is used to enjoying it, who wants to live a poor life, this is the last thing he wants to accept.

Now that this opportunity is too rare to come by, Nan Huairen deliberately shirked it for a while and still agreed.

In a corner he couldn't see, the prince and elder brother sneered at the same time, showing a cold look.Nan Huairen really had selfish intentions towards them.

When Yinfeng and the others arrived, Dai Zi had already brought people to wait here. It seemed that he did not expect the crown prince to bring a foreigner here. He was a little surprised, and there was some dissatisfaction in his eyes.

"I have met His Royal Highness, the eldest brother, the third elder brother, and the fourth elder brother."

The crown prince casually pointed at Nan Huairen and said, "This is Mr. Nan Huairen. Mr. Dai should have met him before. Mr. Nan Huairen is knowledgeable and talented. At the time of San Francisco, it was thanks to Mr. Nan Huairen's research on the 'Shenwei General' cannon and 'Wu Chengyong'." Only with the help of General Gu' and the 'Shengong Army' can we defeat Wu Sangui and win the victory. It's not that you are in trouble with your research, it just so happens that the people of Nanda are enthusiastic and willing to help, thank you, I haven't told you about your problem yet."

Nan Huairen waved his hand, and said modestly: "Your Highness, the Crown Prince, is serious. San Francisco's victory is inseparable from the bravery of my Qing soldiers and the emperor's wise leadership. I just helped a little."

The elder brother turned his head and curled his lips, Nan Huairen's proud face was not as simple as 'a little help'.It is said that the Qing people are hypocritical, but he sees these foreigners are contrived.

It is best to have two brushes for this bag, and really develop a weapon with great lethality.When the research is done, he will take them and go to the West for a walk.

Under the glaring gaze of the crown prince, Dai Zi reluctantly asked his own questions. All the questions he asked were superficial, and it happened that Nan Huairen knew and was able to answer them.

Nan Huairen answered him for half an hour, and then asked to see the weapon he was researching.Dai Zi's face drooped. It was one thing to ask questions, but another to see the results.

The prince said angrily: "What are you doing in a daze? Mr. Nan knows more than you, and he can still go after your things."

Dai Zi led the way with a stinky face, this time he was not pretending, but really upset.

Ever since he was "ordered" to research weapons, Dai Zi wished to turn one day into two angels.If it wasn't for this Nan Huairen's sudden arrival, he would have been researching new technologies by now, so let's not talk about delaying his research.In order to prevent Nan Huairen from seeing the progress, he also hid all the things he had studied before, and rearranged some messy places.

If it's better to study what he is good at, it will take a little longer to deliberately mess him up.Originally, if this person came to communicate sincerely, he would be very happy.It is definitely not possible to work behind closed doors, and he also hopes to have a personal discussion.It's just that he had tested it just now and found that Nan Huairen was indeed hiding something for himself.

Nan Huairen answered the few straightforward questions he asked, but when it came to advanced knowledge, the person on the other side frowned and said nothing.Maybe he really didn't know or maybe he didn't want to give it to himself.After observation, Dai Zi felt that it was the latter. After all, the other party was someone who had studied artillery. Although those questions were profound, they were not impossible to answer.

She didn't want to communicate with him, and deliberately asked the prince to bring his research base, which must have no good intentions.If they come and go again, they will have opinions on Nan Huairen.

As for Nan Huairen, he was relieved to confirm that although the other party had some abilities, he was not as good as him.Among the people who came to the Qing Dynasty to preach, only he knew artillery technology, and he was at an average level in his own country.Dai Zi needn't worry at all.

Leaving from Dai Zi, Nan Huairen excused the mission of the church and parted ways with the prince and others.Seeing his leaving back, the third elder brother narrowed his eyes, "This guy must have reported the situation to his accomplice."

The situation was almost the same, Nan Huairen was not the only missionary in the palace, just because he didn't have other thoughts doesn't mean others didn't.Then someone told this to their bishop, who was the head of their missionaries.The leader immediately realized something was wrong.

Nan Huairen may not be clear, but he knows that their trip is not just as simple as preaching.The cake of Daqing is too sweet, they have long wanted to get their hands on it, and of course they can't let it be strong.

"how?"

"Just a grandstanding buffoon. I guess he hasn't even read my books." If you had read his books on artillery, you wouldn't have asked him those questions today.Most of the questions Dai Zi asked could be answered in the book.

The bishop stared at Nan Huairen with a serious expression, Nan Huairen was a little displeased, "What? You don't believe me? If you don't believe me, you can send someone to investigate yourself, why let me risk offending the emperor It's dangerous to run this far."

Hearing the dissatisfaction in Nan Huairen's words, the bishop sneered: "What? You have only come to the Qing Dynasty for a few years and you have forgotten your hometown? Nan Huairen, you have to be clear, without our training, you would not be what you are now, everything about you We gave it to you, and if we can give it to you, we can take it back. Believe it or not, as long as I randomly send someone to tell the emperor of the Qing Dynasty that you are actually a Belgian spy, what do you think the emperor will do?"

"You." Nan Huairen's face was ashen. This bishop had only come to the Qing Dynasty not long ago. Nan Huairen didn't know him very well. He just heard from the previous bishop that it was best not to disobey him.

Nan Huairen also knew Kangxi well. Kangxi was the kind of person who would rather kill a wrong than let him go. As long as there was a slight possibility, he would not let him go.Maybe Kangxi won't kill him, but he won't reuse him either.To Nan Huairen, not being reused is no different from killing him.

Staring at the bishop's sneering face, Nan Huairen tried hard to suppress the anger in his heart, "I don't care what your purpose is, I'm just a missionary, and I'm here to spread the teachings of Allah. I'll just pretend that this incident never happened , I will not participate in any of your affairs in the future, and you should not expect any help from me."

"Don't even think about threatening me with those words again. In the words of the Qing Dynasty, if we are in a hurry, we will die. Do you think the emperor will trust you if he doubts me?"

If the bishop really thought so, he was very wrong.If he really went to the emperor to talk nonsense, Kangxi would only drive them all out of the territory of the Qing Dynasty.

The bishop laughed softly, "Master Nan, I was just joking. I see that Master Nan is in a hurry. Don't worry, I won't look for you if there is no important matter. You can still be the one who made the Qing emperor The trusted Qin Tianjian supervisor."

He just didn't like Nan Huairen's superior attitude, so he just threatened him.Nan Huairen was the only Belgian who was trusted by the Qing emperor, which was of great significance. Of course, he was not willing to discard this hole card at will.

Nan Huairen flung his sleeves and walked away. The bishop stared at his back and said, "Keep an eye on him, and report to me at any time if there is any change."

Nan Huairen rushed out of the church angrily, and the person who waited on him trotted up before he got into the car.Pausing in his tracks, Nan Huairen sarcastically said, "You have a new master, why are you still following me?"

He never thought that his companions who had been with him day and night for decades would 'betray' him.

Originally, he was really just worried that Dai Zi's great ability would squeeze his place in Kangxi's heart. The imperial palace is full of Qing people, and most of his concerns are told to the few companions.Unexpectedly, after hearing his complaint about this matter, this person actually skipped him and reported it to the archbishop.

The archbishop reprimanded him for hiding his secrets and ordered him to investigate the matter clearly.Only then did the following series of things happen.He once deliberately revealed that he was dissatisfied with Dai Zi because he was worried about 'falling out of favor', and he also behaved in the same way in front of the emperor.Now he only hoped that the elder brothers would be young, that he had been fooled by him, and he didn't suspect that he had other purposes.

When Nan Huairen went to the church, the crown prince and others also went back to find Dai Zi. It was inconvenient to say many things in front of Nan Huairen, and now they were going to listen to Dai Zi's opinion.

Dai Zi had been waiting for them in the restaurant a long time ago, knowing that the princes' time was precious, he didn't delay, so he immediately revealed his doubts.

The elder brother slapped the table angrily, "I knew this old bastard had no good intentions, and let people spread rumors, really treating us as three-year-old children? His clumsy acting skills, even Xiaoba can't fool him." After the new year, the eighth elder brother is just three years old, and the eighth elder brother doesn't believe him, let alone them.

"You must have tricked him over there, don't act again." They can act, and Nan Huairen can definitely do it, and now it depends on who has the better acting skills.

Dai Zi was a little uncertain, "I'm not sure, but the people who work with me have told me that they haven't left during this period. As long as we control the camp well, I believe he won't know our specific progress."

The prince rubbed his chin, "Okay, turn around and ask Huang Amadou to send some imperial troops. Let's loosen the outside and tighten the inside, and see if we can catch a few bastards."

Nan Huairen didn't know about the prince's arrangement. After letting go of the harsh words, he felt at ease as his supervisor and teacher as if nothing had happened before.

It’s just that he was reassured a little prematurely. The archbishop said nicely that he would not persecute him, but every month he went to church to pray, and he would still be asked about firearms.Especially in September when Kangxi suddenly established a new department called 'Firearms Camp', the archbishop almost fell out with Nan Huairen.

"Didn't you say that that research was unsuccessful? Since it was unsuccessful, why did the Qing emperor establish a 'firearms camp'? Don't tell you that you don't know the meaning of these three words." Write big characters on their foreheads.In fact, it's almost the same as some on the forehead, otherwise, the archbishop wouldn't jump in a hurry.

Nan Huairen frowned, and he said angrily: "How do I know, either they kept a hand before, or the emperor was deliberately bluffing to prepare for the future. Based on what I know about Kangxi, it should be the latter. They The Qing people like to plan and act later.”

It's not surprising to have a battalion before they have researched out firearms, just like they are going to fight, the reason is to collect food first.What's more, the emperor also said that this firearms battalion is not what they imagined, it is mainly used to study firearms.For example, Dai Zi, who had no reputation before, now belongs to the Firearms Camp.

"You think, you think, you think everything, so why send us? I don't care what method you use, you must investigate this matter, otherwise I will repair the book for the country immediately." The archbishop threatened.

Nan Huairen had a gloomy face, "The emperors of the Qing Dynasty were not fools. They might have started to suspect me before. Now I go to inquire about the firearms camp. Isn't that rushing to deliver the target?" Obviously he had already shown it before Not interested in Dai Zi, but suddenly going to the Firearms Camp, any fool would know that there is something wrong with him.

The Archbishop didn't listen to Nan Huairen's explanation, he said eloquently, "So what, for the great cause of the motherland, what is personal sacrifice?" He never admitted that he was jealous of Nan Huairen.Obviously he is the archbishop, but the emperor of the Qing Dynasty is not the one who is most important to him.

He often thought that it would be fine without Nan Huairen.

For a moment, Nan Huairen wanted to go up and slap the archbishop.With the crackling of fingers, Nan Huairen's face was so gloomy that he could bleed.

He lowered his head to hide the killing intent in his eyes, the disobedient archbishop should be replaced.

The archbishop was still too young, he only saw Nan Huairen leaving in silence, and thought that Nan Huairen had already surrendered, but he didn't expect to see the cold eyes of the other party looking at him as if he was looking at a dead person again.

"He left the palace?" Kangxi said to Liang Jiugong with a calm face in Qianqing Palace.

Few people know his real purpose of announcing the establishment of a firearms battalion today. Everyone just thinks that he is suddenly interested in this kind of lethal weapon and wants to study it.In fact, this was indeed one of the purposes. The most fundamental thing was that he wanted to test Nan Huairen.

He had to admit that the prince's words that day had left traces in his heart after all, and his suspicion towards Nan Huairen was like a thorn in his heart.

Therefore, he deliberately chose this day, a day when Nan Huairen had just prayed and would not pray again.

If Nan Huairen went out, it meant that he was not as loyal to Da Qing as he had shown; if he was still the same as usual, then this person could still be trusted for a while.

Unfortunately, Nan Huairen still let him down.

According to reports from the people who served him, when the imperial court went down yesterday, the servants beside Nan Huairen left the palace, and after that, Nan Huairen followed closely today.

Kangxi couldn't convince himself, he sat there quietly, he wanted to wait for an explanation.Unfortunately, he was disappointed again, Nan Huairen did not come to look for him after returning to the palace.

He thought that he had been with Nan Huairen for many years, and their relationship had already surpassed the national border.One must know that Nan Huairen had lived in Daqing for more time than he had lived in Belgium. He thought that Nan Huairen had a sense of belonging to Daqingzao.

After an unknown amount of time, Kangxi got up, and he sighed softly. After all, he was thinking too much.
