History of Cannon Fodder Struggle [Qing]

Many people's expressions changed drastically. Looking at Taozi in front of them, it was like seeing a life-threatening talisman.

The queen's complexion changed slightly, and then ordered other imperial physicians to check it together.

More than a dozen other imperial physicians stepped forward bravely. In fact, they believed in the diagnosis of the imperial physician just now, because they were really inferior to him in terms of poisoning methods.

As the saying goes, if you are good at making poison, it is easier to detect the poison.

All the imperial physicians resorted to all kinds of methods, and the last sentence concluded that the bowl was poisonous.

More than a dozen imperial physicians acted together as security, the queen showed a look of shock and anger, and then pointed to her own bowl and other people's bowls for the imperial physician to examine.She took a bite just now. If the peach is poisonous, doesn't that mean she was poisoned?

After working for half an hour, the imperial physician said, "I report to the empress, only the bowl of the imperial concubine is poisonous."

The queen breathed a sigh of relief, but her face showed a look of anger. She immediately turned her hair to the maid who served the peaches just now, "Since only the bowl of the imperial concubine was poisoned, it means that the person who poisoned was present. You were the only ones who came into contact with it just now." To Tao Zi, the noble concubine, come here, and arrest all the court ladies who have been in contact with Tao Zi before, waiting for my palace to thoroughly investigate!"

A group of court ladies who felt that the disaster was imminent immediately knelt down, kowtowed and cried out for their grievances.

In fact, it is not necessarily peaches that are poisonous, but cream, bowls, and so on.

The queen never expected that after the maid was dragged down, she ordered the eunuch in charge of the Old Summer Palace to take down all the people involved in the case.

The fourth master is accepting birthday celebrations from the courtiers and giving fine wines to the ministers.Fourth Master got a little tipsy from drinking, so he got up and went to Chedian to change clothes.

At this moment, Su Peisheng hurried in, with an anxious look on his face, "Long Live Lord, something is wrong, someone sent a message from the front, someone poisoned the imperial concubine!"

The fourth master, who was a little drunk before, immediately disappeared when he heard the news.

"what?!"

When Su Peisheng repeated it again, the fourth master immediately became furious, "Send someone to investigate! Give me a thorough investigation!" After saying that, he didn't go to the front hall, and went directly out of the Yuanmingyuan hall, and asked people to prepare the imperial chariot.

The fourth master quickly rushed over, and the female relatives over there heard that the emperor was coming so soon, they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, the imperial concubine's love is so great.

Afterwards, these things were not something they could participate in, and they were quickly invited out of the garden.

On the other side, Mrs. Wu returned to the mansion with the two girls in shock.

She looked at Wu Liumei with complicated eyes, and finally said nothing, but told her to go to the yard.

The eldest sister has already registered with the imperial concubine, no matter how she knows that the bowl of the imperial concubine is poisonous, it is an undeniable fact that the eldest sister will come to the imperial concubine.

With this status, Mrs. Wu can't deal with her at will.

Mrs. Wu planned to wait for this matter to fade away and see how the imperial concubine reacted. If she didn't take this life-saving grace seriously, she naturally didn't need to worry about it.

But if she treats the eldest sister differently because of this matter, then all her previous plans will be nullified.

"Mother?" Wu Liuhui leaned on Madam Wu and called softly.

Mrs. Wu came back to her senses and looked at her daughter's Aijiao, she couldn't help but feel soft-hearted, she told her seriously, "Don't get too close to your eldest sister during this time, your eldest sister is really too bold this time, even participating in the palace Fighting." After thinking about it for a while, Madam Wu said, "I think we might as well send you to your uncle's house tomorrow to accompany your grandmother."

They both live in the same mansion, and the two girls live so close together, it's hard not to miss each other.

Wu Liuhui really wanted to reassure her mother, but seeing the anxiety in her brows, she swallowed the words she wanted to refuse, "Then I'll go back and pack the clothes I'll take to my uncle's house tomorrow."

Mrs. Wu showed a comforting smile towards her daughter.

In the afternoon, before it was dark, Mr. Wu Ge came back. Mrs. Wu was a little surprised that her husband came back so early.

When the Supreme Emperor passed his birthday, he would not come back until the sky was dark.

As soon as Wu Ge came back, he asked Mrs. Wu about what happened at the banquet. As Ge Lao, Wu Ge naturally had his own news channel.

The emperor left the banquet and went to the Wanchun Garden. The well-informed soon found out, and when they found out that someone had poisoned the imperial concubine, many people were full of thoughts.

Originally, Mr. Wu Ge didn't take this matter to heart. Although he poisoned the noble concubine, isn't the noble concubine not poisoned?

However, he soon got the news that his family members were also involved, and he was immediately anxious.

Later, I asked someone again, and learned that it was the daughter of the Wu family who discovered the poison in the bowl of the imperial concubine in advance, which made the imperial concubine escape.

Mr. Wu Ge was worried and uneasy along the way. He didn't know whether the daughter of the Wu family was referring to his precious daughter or his niece.

The niece was eligible to enter the Wanchun Garden, and it was his mother who asked him, and he agreed. He didn't expect such a big incident to happen.

Old Wu Ge had the same idea as Mrs. Wu, it was best to get involved in the affairs of the palace, if not, he would have to get involved too.

Mrs. Wu told her husband about the matter from beginning to end, including Wu Liumei's remarks.

Wu Ge frowned and asked, "Eldest sister, did you really hear that two court ladies are plotting to kill the imperial concubine?"

How did Mrs. Wu know about this?It's not that she didn't ask her eldest sister when she came back, but she insisted on this excuse.

Just like Minning and the Queen, Wu Ge felt unreliable as soon as he heard this statement. Regardless of the matter of whether there are no maids in the palace, whoever poisoned the matter will be smashed by a little girl who just entered the garden?

Wu Ge made up his mind to ask for it himself.

As a result, Mr. Wu Ge also hit a snag, but he found that he had really underestimated this niece. It's a pity that this cleverness is not used on the right path, and it will inevitably bring trouble to the family. Just like this time, if she is willing to tell If he does, he can arrange it in advance so as not to hurt his family.

It's a pity that no matter what Wu Ge said, Wu Liumei would always give an answer.

Elder Wu Ge couldn't help being a little furious, and said to Mrs. Wu after returning, "Just this time, I'll get through this time safely, so I'll send Meier back to her hometown, and let her never go back to Beijing for the rest of her life!"

Back home, no matter how much commotion there is, Mr. Wu Ge can clean it up, but this capital is different, if there is a little big commotion, everyone will pay attention to the Wu residence.

Mrs. Wu said cautiously, "I'm afraid the old lady won't agree!"

Wu Ge slapped the table angrily, "If the old lady disagrees, I'll talk about it!"

On the other side, after seeing off all the guests, Hong Kyung straightened up and looked at the entire hall.

Since the banquet, Khan Ama left suddenly and never came back. Hong Jing and the other princes could only accompany him to the wine in person.

Having to deal with hundreds of guests, he got busy, Hong Kyung was better, he mixed a lot of water in his wine, and now he is only a little tipsy.

On the contrary, Hongshi was a little stupid, took a glass of wine and drank a glass, and soon fell to the ground drunk.

As for Hongyun who didn't drink alcohol because of his health, he only sat with him for a while, and then let him leave in a hurry.

Juice is fine for a few younger ones, they are not yet old enough to drink.

Because Hong Jing was busy, he hadn't received any news from the outside, so he naturally didn't know that someone had poisoned his mother-in-law. The reason why the fourth master didn't come back was because he was thoroughly investigating all the people involved.

After sending people away, Hong Kyung rubbed his forehead that was a little swollen and sore, and he turned around and ordered people to send his younger brothers back.

Xiao Dezi hurried in, and whispered to Hong Jing about someone poisoning the imperial concubine.

He didn't dare not to hide this matter, as long as his master left the Palace of Yuanmingyuan, he would be able to hear the news soon.

If he does not report it now, if he is found out later that he did not report it, he will definitely be driven away.

Hong Kyung's expression changed drastically immediately, he grabbed Xiao Dezi's shoulder and asked, "What's the situation with Er Niang now?"

Xiao Dezi's shoulder hurt from being pinched, but he didn't dare to remind his master, he hurriedly said, "Please rest assured, the imperial concubine and empress are safe and sound, and to touch the poisoned dessert."

After hearing this, Hong Kyung immediately relaxed, and then said to Xiao Dezi, "Okay, tell me everything in detail."

Xiao Dezi told all the information he had inquired, and Hong Kyung suddenly heard a familiar person, and his face suddenly showed surprise.

"You mean, it was Mr. Wu Ge's niece who discovered the poison in the bowl first?"

Xiao Dezi said respectfully, "Yes, it is because of this noble lady's reminder that my empress was able to avoid this catastrophe."

Hong Kyung became suspicious of Wu Liumei, and like everyone else, he didn't believe the words of two court ladies talking to children.

So here comes the question, how can she know exactly that there is poison in Er Niang's bowl?It is impossible to say that the poison was poisoned by her, after all, she does not have the channel to get in touch with Er Niang's diet.

Don't tell him that he can see it, this poison is colorless and tasteless, even the imperial physician can only judge it is poisonous after tasting it, so how did she know it?

Hong Jing couldn't sort out his thoughts for a while, so he took Xiao Dezi out of the Yuanmingyuan hall to visit Er Niang.

Even if Er Niang hadn't been poisoned, she must have been quite frightened, after all, she had sent the poison to her with supernatural powers, and by virtue of this ability, she could make the master in the Old Summer Palace sleepless.

After all, my own safety is not guaranteed, and this kind of poison cannot be detected by silver needles, and it is very likely that it has directly entered my diet.

As Hong Kyung imagined, all the people in the Old Summer Palace were having trouble sleeping and eating.

The tense atmosphere even spread to the Changchun Garden, and the Supreme Emperor also began to step up the investigation of the personnel in the Changchun Garden.

Fourth Master went to investigate the case, while Minning returned to Xinghuachun Pavilion.

An afternoon had passed since the previous incident, and she had recovered her emotions long ago, and began to investigate her enemies. Who would poison her?

Minning frowned after searching but failed.

At this moment, Hong Kyung hurried in, "Er Niang!" Hong Kyung shouted with worry.

Seeing that he barged in without waiting for outsiders to report, Minning immediately lowered his face, "What about your rules?"

After all, Hong Kyung is an adult, and he can no longer barge in like he was a child. Although she doesn't mind, if it gets out, it will hurt Hong Kyung's reputation.

As soon as Hong Kyung stepped into the room, he quickly backed out. Soon the maid came in to ask for instructions, and Min Ning let him in.

"Son, pay respects to Mother-in-law!" Hong Kyung made a complete set of rules.

Only then did Minning nod in satisfaction, and asked him to stand up, "Why did you come here in such a hurry?"

A worried look immediately appeared on Hong Jing's face, "Son, I just heard that someone poisoned you, Er Niang, have you found out who is so bold?"

Minning shook his head, "Ama is still investigating!" Then he warned him, "Don't panic when things happen, and calm down next time you encounter such a thing, everyone is watching your performance!"

Hong Jing hurriedly put away the worried expression on his face, and said again, "Emiang, you must have survived this time, will that person strike again?"

Minning snorted, "It caught me off guard before, but this time I was already prepared, so I couldn't give someone another chance." no problem.

Hong Kyung breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked, "I heard that it was Mr. Wu Ge's niece who discovered the poison in the bowl first?"

Minning looked at him vigilantly, and asked calmly, "So what?" Then he seemed to think of something, and suddenly realized, "Could it be that the girl from the Wu family you mentioned earlier is her?"

If it was really this person, Minning thought about how to break up the couple.

She would rather Hongkyung get married later than to marry such a daughter-in-law who dares to fight against the queen and has no respect for the imperial power. If such a person really enters the royal family, it will be a disaster.

Hong Jing froze for a moment, then quickly shook his head, "No, the one who is familiar with my son is Wu Ge's daughter, not his niece."

Minning heaved a sigh of relief, with a smile on her face, and then she began to think about the girl who was by Mrs. Wu's side. Although she didn't see her face clearly, but with Wu Ge's old niece as a comparison, her demands plummeted.

Hong Kyung continued to speak, "My son has a doubt in his heart. I don't know if he can say it?"

Minning immediately became interested. Since her son changed his voice, he considered himself an adult, and he stopped talking to her about some things.

When Minning heard what troubled his clever son, he became interested, "Tell me, see if Erniang can give you an adviser."

Hong Kyung was in the mountains and didn't know the depths of the clouds, so he couldn't judge that matter.

"My son found out that this old niece of Wu Ge is a bit extraordinary. She is in the boudoir, but she can predict her son's identity and whereabouts. And this time, she was the first to detect the poison..."

"What do you think?" Minning had a guess in his heart and asked him.

Hong Kyung cupped his hands and said to Minning, "My son thinks that this person's identity may not be that simple, and maybe another force is used by her to know so much information."

Minning was noncommittal, did not continue to dwell on this matter, and turned the voice to him and said, "Go and see your Khan Ama, and see what you found."

Hong Kyung knew that Er Niang just wanted to dismiss him, so he withdrew as if he didn't know what to do.

After Hongkyung left, Minning's eyes sharpened.

She quickly wrote a letter with secret words and sent it to the newspaper.

Fourth Master didn't come back until it was dark.

The Old Summer Palace belonged to Fourth Master's territory, since he couldn't get rid of his control, the poisoner who poisoned him was quickly found out.

"...a palace maid from the Imperial Dining Room, her home is a small fishing village on the east side of the sea. Kangxi entered the palace in 52 years, and was asked to come to the Old Summer Palace the year before last."

Minning could hear the problem, let alone Fourth Master.

Min Ning frowned and said to the Fourth Master, "Kangxi 52 was the year when the Lord became the throne. This court lady had just entered the palace at that time, so she must be at the bottom. Within two years, we moved into the garden. Well, most of the maids and eunuchs in the palace have been released, and even if there are, only those who stay in the palace for the elderly are left. The number of places for eunuchs and eunuchs in the garden is full, and the competition is not only fierce, but even if there is no certain relationship, it is not crowded at all. Don’t come in. But such a low-level court lady can be transferred to the garden after a few years, so there is a problem in any way.”

Fourth Master nodded, "Following this line, I sent someone to investigate, and finally found out that this court lady spent a lot of money to manage it before being arranged by the Ministry of Internal Affairs to enter the garden."

Minning was not surprised when she heard this, she smiled and said to Fourth Master, "It seems that money can not only turn ghosts around, but also enlighten gods."

It takes a lot of money to buy people who have been selected at various levels, and they can enter the garden with a few years of qualifications.

You must know that the maids and eunuchs selected in the garden are all innocent and have their own records.

Like this court lady, who entered the palace from the private sector, she could only be at the bottom of the ranks, and at most she could leave the palace at the age of 25.

Even the concubines in the harem would not use such a maid of unknown origin.

Fourth master pretended not to hear her words, after all, the palace was opened up with money, and it would be a scandal to spread it out.

The fourth master continued, "I have already sent someone to investigate in her hometown. Even if she sneaks into the palace incognito, I will uncover her old background."

Minning said suddenly, "Where is that palace lady now?"

"The Ministry of Internal Affairs is in a private prison." Fourth Master asked her with his eyes, as if asking her what she wanted to do?

Minning tightened the veil and said, "This person's target is me anyway, I have to go and ask him!"

Fourth Master looked at her with "Are you serious" eyes.

Minning looked back at him neither humble nor overbearing.

The fourth master showed a look of embarrassment on his face, and immediately made a decision and said, "No, since this person is plotting against you and doesn't know what secret behind him is hidden in him, don't take risks yourself, wait until I find out. .”

But Minning shook his head, "Didn't you just say that you only found out that the maid poisoned her and interrogated her, but she wanted to take the opportunity to bite her tongue and kill herself. Lord, since you can't find out, let me ask." Since it is For her, she must have passed to have a chance to pry her mouth open.

Fourth Master looked at her, "Are you really going?"

Minning gritted his teeth, "They're planning to harm me, so of course I'm going to ask."

Fourth Master had no choice but to take her, so he said: "Today is too late, tomorrow I will send Sticky to accompany you there."

Although there was a group of tails behind him, Min Ning nodded and agreed to this trip anyway.

On the second day, Minning finished his breakfast, and under the protection of the sticky pole, he came to the House of Internal Affairs, which was set up near the Old Summer Palace.

As for the fourth master, he still had to meet several brothers and nephews.

A certain scale has been formed near the Old Summer Palace, large and small houses stand upright, and even a small commercial street has appeared.

However, these houses and commercial streets are still some distance away from the Old Summer Palace. After all, the Old Summer Palace belongs to the emperor’s residence, which is the same as the imperial palace. Is there any private residence next to the imperial palace, and there are people selling things in front of the imperial palace?

So these houses and the commercial street form a small town, and this small town is a bit unusual, and all the people living in it are third-rank officials.

Without certain qualifications, it is impossible to buy land here, and some with junior qualifications can only live in the city, and rush to Yuanmingyuan every morning and early in the dark.

The carriage soon arrived at the House of Internal Affairs in the small town. The House of Internal Affairs here serves the Old Summer Palace, and it is very close to both the Old Summer Palace and the Changchun Garden.

Minning got out of the carriage. She was wearing casual clothes, with a random comb on her hair, looking very low-key.

The carriage had already driven into the courtyard of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and after getting out of the carriage, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs was already waiting.

The internal affairs have always been taken care of by the prince, both the fourth master and the eighth master have held this position, and after the fourth master succeeds to the throne, he is worried that the housekeeper of the palace will fall into the hands of the eighth master, and his son has not grown up yet, so he will He lost this right to his most trusted younger brother, Prince Yi.

Right now, the head of the House of Internal Affairs is naturally not Prince Yi, but the person who manages the big and small matters of the House of Internal Affairs. It stands to reason that such small matters should not be under his control, but he took over yesterday. Come and accompany me in person.

Seeing Minning, the head of the House of Internal Affairs immediately knelt down on the ground, "I pay homage to the imperial concubine, the imperial concubine, best wishes and peace!"

Minning raised her hand, "You don't need to be too polite." After she got up, she continued, "Where's the maid who was imprisoned yesterday?"

The head of the House of Internal Affairs said respectfully, "If you go back to your mother, the maid is still in the dark prison at this time."

Minning raised his chin, "You lead the way."

Minning followed the head of the House of Internal Affairs to an empty house, and watched him lift a box, revealing the stairs below.

Before the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs could speak, the sticky pole beside her went down the stairs first.

It didn't take long to send a message saying that it was safe below, and Minning stepped on the ladder to go down.

It was a little dark below, and the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs behind him hurried over and pulled a rope on the wall.

Soon the lights came on.

There are a lot of people underground, three or two people every few steps, and in the depths are individual prisons.

Most of them are empty, only one or two people are locked inside.

The Chief of the House of Internal Affairs explained in a low voice, "This is a violation of the rules, and we will be locked up here for minor punishments and major punishments." Then he pointed to the inside and said, "Your Majesty, please go this way, the maid is locked in the innermost. "

Minning nodded and followed him to continue walking inside.

Walking to the end, I saw a concrete prison cell, and the exposed side was blocked by iron and steel bars.

At this time, a court lady was lying on the bed in the prison cell, she looked like she had been tortured, and her clothes were stained with brown blood.

In the twelfth lunar month, it was freezing outside, but it was not so cold here underground because of the lack of ventilation.

In addition, the cell was covered with straw, but it was barely able to survive.

"Your Majesty, do you need to arrest someone for interrogation?"

Minning didn't make a sound, she was staring at the people inside, and then said back to him, "Bring them out."

Minning was invited by the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs to sit down in a clean interrogation room. There was a stove in the interrogation room, and the fire was very strong, so that the room was not so cold.

Minning frowned slightly, then turned to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs and said, "If you want to keep warm, try not to use open flames, and don't burn this stove here, so as not to be poisoned by carbon." Although the coal was mixed with yellow mud Afterwards it has been diluted.It can be placed underground without ventilation, which is prone to carbon monoxide poisoning.

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs quickly said yes.

Minning thought for a while, and then said, "In the future, someone will build a fire path with cement and bricks, which connects to the fire path in the kitchen. Once the fire in the kitchen is used, the heat will flow in continuously."

There are many people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so the kitchen must be non-stop, as long as there is a fire, it can keep warm all the time.

As for how to solve the problem of fireworks going down, there are craftsmen in the Ministry of Internal Affairs who can naturally solve this problem.

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs said deeply, "Madam Lao is worried, and if you turn around, let the craftsmen do it." Punishment of court ladies and eunuchs, the number of court ladies and eunuchs has been decreasing day by day in recent years, most of the time is idle.

Minning sat in the interrogation room, no wonder the maid was brought over. The maid's hands were handcuffed together, and iron chains were wrapped around her feet.

Minning casually glanced at the maid's legs, then at the maid's appearance, and couldn't help but let out a "huh".

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs bent down at the right time, "Your Majesty?"

Minning waved his hand to stop him from speaking, then he looked at the maid with interest as if he had discovered something.

"What's your name?"

The maid raised her eyes to look at Minning, but didn't speak.

Seeing this, Minning wondered, "Why did you poison me? Could it be that I have some deep hatred with you? Now that I'm in front of you, you can tell me what you want?"

The maid came to her senses, the person in front of her should be the imperial concubine, her eyes revealed hatred, "Why didn't you get poisoned? Why didn't you die?"

"Bold!" The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs immediately said angrily.

Min Ning glared at the head of the House of Internal Affairs, and scolded: "Back off!" Then he continued to say to the maid, "Of course I'm not dead. If you don't see me standing in front of you now, it's because I'm not poisoned. Tell me, what's your name? Why do you hate me so much?"

The palace lady was grabbed by the person at the sticky pole, and she still struggled desperately to run towards Minning.

In the end, the tormented wound burst and she lost her strength, so she said with a ferocious face, "You are a devil! Only by killing you can I restore peace to my hometown!"

Minning confirmed the guess in his heart, and the smile on his face deepened, "Are you Japanese?"

The maid was startled, and immediately denied it.

However, Minning stood up, walked up to the lady-in-waiting, walked around her, looked at her uneasy, and finally said with satisfaction, "The correct reaction should be to show a dazed look or simply admit it."

If the court lady is not from Japan, the first reaction should be what is she talking about?Or don't want to reveal your identity and simply admit it.

In the case of such a quick denial, it can only explain one problem, and she has a guilty conscience, so she eagerly denies it.

The reason why Minning guessed that she is Japanese is based on reason. This court lady is bow-legged and comes from the coast of the East China Sea. According to what she said, she disturbed her hometown. At present, only Japan meets this condition.

She knew that some ronin in Japan had assembled and pulled up a rebel team, causing the whole of Japan to fall into the flames of war, and people everywhere were in dire straits.

The officials sent by the Qing Dynasty secretly put pressure on the Tokugawa family and sent troops to suppress the rebellion.

I just don't know if those rebels have a relationship with the Tokugawa family, and after sending troops there, nothing will happen.

Minning guessed that this court lady should have been lurking in the early years, and she has not been used by Japan in the palace for the past few years.

Minning had a guess in his heart. Could it be that Japan found out that she was the chief culprit that caused Japan to fall into this situation?

Back then, if she hadn't mentioned that there was a silver mountain in Japan, Eighth Master and Third Master would not have sent a ship to Japan.

When the eyes of the Qing Dynasty are fixed on Japan, this worm is bound to be unable to escape the mouth of the falcon.

Later, the East China Sea trade was opened, breaking Japan's closed-door policy, and controlling Japan in disguise through the hands of the Tokugawa shogunate.

Probably because too many people were transported to the Qing Dynasty, the population of Japan withered, and Chinese language education was popularized locally. Some people saw that Japan was destroying the country in disguise, so they pulled up a team to save the country that was in dire straits.

After all, if it weren't for her, Japan would be as peaceful as ever.

But she would rather bear this charge. Japan is small and full of disasters, and she knows that one day she will turn her eyes on Daqing.

These are the lessons of blood.

It's just that Minning is a little puzzled, she thinks she's hiding deep enough, how can the people in Japan find out about her?

By the way, Lao Ba seemed to have brought a group of Japanese to Beijing back then, and those people knew that she had spread the news about Iwami Yinzan, so they sat in front of Qiandi to protest.

It seems that this court lady should be related to those people back then.

Knowing that she had exposed her identity, the court lady admitted it. She glared at Minning and said, "Even if I fail, there are still warriors in our Great Japanese Empire who will kill you one day." After saying this, She bit her tongue and killed herself.

The sticky rod next to her reacted quickly and directly removed her jaw. Minning only saw a stream of blood flow out of her mouth.

She was startled, "Hurry up and heal her, don't let her die!" She also wanted to catch more spies who sneaked into the Qing Dynasty along this line.

Sticky Rod pinched the maid's cheeks and forced her to open her mouth. After seeing the injuries inside, Sticky Rod replied to Minning, "Master, I just bit my tongue."

Minning felt relieved, and said to the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, "Please doctor come and treat her wounds, and take care of her so that she doesn't die."

The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs hurriedly responded: "This slave will definitely keep her alive."

Minning returned to the Old Summer Palace, the banquet at Siye's side was not over yet, today is Siye's birthday, and every year on his birthday, she would cook a bowl of longevity noodles for him.

Minning's cooking skills are not very good. He has been pampered and pampered all these years, and he has long forgotten how to cook.

What's more, she has a mouth that has tasted delicious food from all over the world. As long as she describes it, someone will figure it out.

This caused her craftsmanship to degenerate further, and she only cooks a bowl of noodles every year when the child and fourth master are born.

This bowl of noodles was rolled out by the kitchen staff, and the water was boiled. As long as she put the noodles in, someone would naturally take them out.

After returning to the Xinghuachun Pavilion, Minning changed into a suit of clothes and came to the small kitchen.

It has been rolled out in the small kitchen and put aside.

As soon as Minning came in, the eunuch who was in charge of the kitchen led his little apprentice to kowtow to Minning.

Minning yelled, then looked around the chopping board, and then said to the chef eunuch, "Today make a bowl of longevity noodles."

The eunuch in charge walked to the chopping board, grabbed a handful of flour and sprinkled it on the chopping board, as if kneading the flour that had been reconciled before.

Minning took a look, then turned around and went outside the kitchen, and asked Jia Jinlu who was following her, "Go and see if Lord Long Live is here?"

The fourth master has already said that he will officially rest after the reception this morning, and he can take a full day and a half off.

It's almost noon now, and fourth master's side should also be over.

Jia Jinlu bent slightly, "Ma'am, today the Rakshasa envoy is coming to Beijing, and Lord Long Live is summoning him."

After hearing these words, Min Ning raised his eyebrows. Today's Qing Dynasty is not the Qing Dynasty of later generations. During the Shunzhi and Kangxi years, there were several battles with foreigners.

Today, there are still prisoners of Russia in the Eight Banners.

It's just that the Qing Dynasty disliked the bitter cold in Siberia and allowed Russia to occupy it.

Back then, Russia went too far. Taking advantage of the war in the Central Plains, it crossed the border and occupied the Mobei area. Both Emperor Shunzhi and the Supreme Emperor fought against foreigners.

Later, the Treaty of Nerchinsk was signed, and a large area of ​​​​Siberia was ceded to Russia.

Minning cared about every piece of land lost by the Qing Dynasty, and naturally he was unwilling to give up that piece of land in Siberia to Russia for nothing.

There are a lot of oil and natural gas under that place, as well as various minerals. Even if they can't be developed right now, there will always be a day when they can be developed in the future.

However, 30 years have passed since the signing of the treaty, and all aspects have stabilized. If you want to overthrow the treaty again, a war is bound to start.

Minning thought about it. She remembered that the Treaty of Nerchinsk seemed to stipulate the dividing line between China and Russia, but the Russians did not follow the rules and crossed the dividing line to occupy part of the land belonging to the Qing Dynasty.

It seems that I have become used to taking advantage of it. I probably feel that Siberia was occupied in the past, and Siberia will belong to it after a long time.Now that some land is occupied, these lands will belong to it after a long time.

Was Vladivostok and other places in later generations occupied by Russia for this reason?

Minning felt that he should communicate with the fourth master, starting from this aspect, to see if the Nerchinsk Treaty could be revoked.
