every spring [comprehensive]

Jian Ning flipped through the file, "Gerdan is the mastermind, Saoerha also gave the route of travel, and cooperated with the inside and the outside. It seems that Urgon's death is not unjust. So many people want his life. He doesn't even notice nails being planted around him."

Kangxi said: "You don't seem to be surprised. Did you think it was Galdan's tricks?" Dare to dare to assassinate the peace team from Mongolia, this is a provocation to the Qing Dynasty!

Jianning said: "It's not too surprising. Before there is no definite evidence, everyone is suspicious. I think it was the Mongolians who were able to disappear without a trace on the grassland. To stir up trouble, Ge Erdan is indeed the most suspect."

Kangxi said: "It's unreasonable! Ge Erdan's move is like declaring war on me. If I don't respond immediately, it seems that I am afraid of him. Not long ago, Shi Lang's battle report was sent up, Taiwan has been completely recovered, and it belongs to me. The land of the Qing Dynasty. Now only the north is eyeing it. If you want the world to be peaceful, this Galdan must be wiped out!"

Jianning said: "It's better not to be impatient, lure Galdan out of the northwest according to the previously planned plan, and let him send troops to the east to have the hope of annihilating them in one fell swoop. Coupled with the bitter cold climate, it is difficult for people who are not born and bred there to adapt, and I am afraid that the army of the Qing Dynasty is no match for Galdan's troops at all."

Kangxi said: "It seems that Fuquan has to go to Horqin again and ask him to bring a letter to Erqi—it's time to lure the snake out of its hole."

Galdan far in the northwest is still complacent, Jianning rejects his marriage proposal, so he will kill her fiancé to avenge this great revenge.Soon, he received an invitation from the King of Horqin County to send troops to Eastern Mongolia, so that he could join forces to unify the Mongolian grassland. After that, he sent his troops south in one fell swoop.

Although Ge Erdan sent gold to Horqin County King every year, he was still wary of him, until his eldest son Saoerha also sent news that his father and king had a grudge against Qing Dynasty because of the tragic death of his son-in-law. Ge Erdan believed that he was really secretly dispatching troops to raise food and prepare to go south.

It is true that Galdan is ambitious.For more than ten years, he has made friends from afar and attacked close to him, killing east and west.Khalkha's Tuxietu has long since ceased to exist, and has become his dead soul under the sword. Khalkha merged into Galdan's territory. One of the concubines.

He ruled the roost in Western Mongolia, and secretly colluded with the Dalai Lama of Tibet and the Raksha Kingdom.After everything was ready to stop, in the autumn of the 27th year of Kangxi, he led one hundred thousand soldiers eastward and occupied Ulan Butong in Eastern Mongolia.

He planned very carefully, as long as he gained a firm foothold in Ulan Butong, Dongmeng, Simon, Monan, and Mobei would all be fine.Then, go further into the pass, and within a few years, you can take over Kangxi's country and build a vast and boundless empire like Genghis Khan back then!

However, as soon as he arrived in Ulan Butong, Ge Erdan felt keenly that he had been fooled by going east this time!The king of Horqin County who warmly wrote to invite him to come, when his army arrived, suddenly said that he was sick and could not come, and instead of sending troops to greet him, he only sent a housekeeper and sent a hundred thin heads. Skinny old goats, and a thousand rags that have been retting in the warehouse for many years. When you touch them, pieces will fall off one by one.

The Mongols are tough and straightforward, and they always value faith. King Horqin did this to Galdan, clearly telling Gerdan that he is not willing to partner!

Raksha Kingdom originally agreed to give Gerdan [-] quick guns.When the matter came to an end, the Raksha Kingdom sent a lieutenant colonel named Ivanov, saying that Tsar Peter was dealing with the border disputes between the west and the south and had no time for him.Moreover, Emperor Kangxi has been negotiating and signing a contract with Tsarist Russia on the border issue between the two countries in recent years. Now that the contract has not been signed, it is inconvenient for Tsarist Russia to intervene in China's internal affairs.Therefore, the original promised arms could not be in place.

Galdan was so angry that he walked up and down in the big tent, yelling, "Traitors! They are all traitors! Shameless villains! They tricked me into coming here, but they betrayed me!" But He has been preparing for so long, and he doesn't plan to go back just like this, and he still wants to start his eastward plan.What's more, it's not something he can go back when he wants to. He doesn't know that Kangxi is already preparing to conquest in person in the capital.

In the city of Beijing, Kangxi wants to conquer in person, and the imperial discussion tonight is Kangxi's major political decision before the expedition.Although there are also ministers who advise that the emperor's precious body is not suitable for an expedition to the desert and suffer from the upheaval; others say that the country does not have much food and it is difficult to cope.

But Kangxi knew that Galdan was cunning, and he couldn't completely subdue him without the imperial driver's personal conquest. As for the food, he had already prepared it.

As early as a few years ago, when he decided to send troops to the northwest, Jianning had suggested to him that there must be enough food, because once the army ran out of food on the vast grassland, it would be a disaster.So he hid 400 million shi of military rations in Yan'an and other places. This matter was done very secretly. Kangxi specially placed officials who secretly prepared food for him on several traffic arteries and grain-producing lands in the south of the Yangtze River. None of the cabinet ministers handled it.

In addition, there are still 1000 million shi in the capital's grain storage, which is enough together.That's why Kangxi made such a big determination not to listen to anyone.

He immediately decreed that starting from this year, all parts of the country will never be paid more, and live with the people. He also ordered the Ministry of Rites, the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Officials to work with the ministers of the study to immediately draft an edict against thieves, a list of entourage and left-behind personnel, and a list of supervisors. The matter is scheduled to go out to fight against the thieves five days later.

Suo'etu said: "During the time when the emperor was personally conscripting, I suggested that the prince still supervise the country. It is better to have a leader than each department to run their own affairs."

This year the prince is already 15 years old, he has read all the "Four Books" and "Book of Books", and has a deep understanding of the purpose. In the 25th year of Kangxi, the crown prince's lecture ceremony was held to let the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, as well as The folk celebrities who came here attracted by the name had seen the elegant demeanor of the crown prince.He gave lectures on scriptures and presided over sacrifices instead of Kangxi.As Kangxi's ardently expected heir, he lived up to expectations, was proficient in culture and martial arts, and possessed outstanding talents in governing the country. His handsome and upright appearance was the most perfect among the royal families of the same age in the Beijing court.

He is a perfect crown prince. Even in the royal family, no one in the court does not praise him. They all believe that one day, like his father, he will become one of the greatest emperors in the Chinese Empire.

Kangxi said: "I originally planned to let the crown prince supervise the country. This time, I will go to the battlefield by myself. It's not like traveling for a month or two. I can come back. I am very relieved to have the crown prince in charge of the overall situation."

Mingzhu said in a timely manner: "The emperor's elder brother and the third elder brother are not young anymore. When they are old enough to participate in politics, why not let them assist the prince and manage the government together, which can also reduce the burden for the prince who is in charge of the country for the first time."

The emperor murmured: "Quick!" Just now, he recalled what Jianning had said in his mind, she said: Once the prince is involved in politics and supervises the country, other princes should not participate in politics.Jianning seemed to have the ability to foresee, knowing that this day would come sooner or later, so he was vaccinated in advance.But Kangxi didn't want to bury his incompetent sons, and wanted to see what would happen if he really put them all above the court.

On December 27th in the [-]th year of Kangxi, it was snowing heavily in Beijing, and the square outside the Meridian Gate was covered with red makeup and jade paved with jade.Thirty thousand sergeants with armor and helmets lined up in a square team on the square. In the cold snow, they stood motionless like steel and copper. Fei Yanggu, the general of the Western Expedition, was ordered to stand in the square. Central, waiting for Kangxi's arrival.

The day before, two decrees were issued in a row, one was to amnesty the world, and the other was to never add gifts. The people in Beijing were all boiling, and they were all grateful.I also heard that the emperor was going to brave the wind and snow to conquer the rebel Geldan in person, and the bad weather could not stop the enthusiasm of the common people. Everyone took to the streets to personally send this diligent and loving emperor out of the city.

Prince Yinreng led the ministers of the Shangshufang who stayed in the capital, civil and military officials, and relatives of the emperor stood in front of the right door and waited to send the emperor to the imperial conquest.At noon, the Habayashi Army with dragon flags came out majestically, followed by the emperor Kangxi of this country.All of a sudden, the horns rang, and the military band played a majestic military song.The crown prince led all the officials to prostrate themselves on the ground, kneel down three times and kowtow nine times, shouting long live.Thirty thousand armored sergeants also shouted "Long live my emperor" at the same time.

Looking at the strict military appearance below, with high morale, and listening to the deafening cheers, Kangxi's heart was full of pride and confidence.He gently raised his hand in salute to the three armies.Downstairs immediately became silent, only the heavy snow drifting in the sky made a slight rustling sound.

Kangxi raised his voice and said: "Soldiers! Galdan's traitor is ambitious. For more than ten years, he has colluded with Luocha, annexed Mongolia, invaded the Central Plains east, slaughtered my cities, killed my people, ruined the unification of China, and disturbed the lives of our people. Karma is tolerable, which is unbearable! Today, I personally command the three armies and use 30 Mongolian and Han iron cavalry to punish the country's traitors. If the rebels are not destroyed, I swear not to return!" He said, pulling out a quilt from his waist quiver. An arrow with carved feathers inlaid with gold came and broke into two pieces with a "snap".

Downstairs of Wufeng Building, the [-] sergeants who were inspected were all well-trained elite soldiers from Feiyanggu. Hearing what the emperor said, they knelt down on one knee along with Feiyanggu, and replied loudly: "I will not destroy the traitor, swear! Don't pay back!"

The officials of the Ministry of Rites carried more than 1000 large wine jars to the square, and filled a large bowl of wine for each soldier who went to war.Zhang Tingyu and Tong Guowei, two newly promoted ministers of the study room, also hurriedly held the wine jar and accompanied the prince to Wufeng Tower.

The prince knelt in front of Kangxi, raised the wine bottle over his head, and said loudly: "I respectfully invite Ama to drink this cup to the full, and I hope that Ama will go to the flag to win the victory! I will follow Ama's order and supervise the food and grass in Beijing, waiting for the emperor's good news !"

When Kangxi saw that the crown prince was so excited that his face turned red, he couldn't help being moved. He took the wine bottle and said, "Okay, I'll use this wine! My son, you have a heavy responsibility to stay in the capital. You must discuss everything with the ministers. For important matters that cannot be decided by entrustment, you must let me know about them. Also, don’t forget to study. The princes are your brothers and sisters. You must strictly restrain them but don’t punish them lightly. There are also your great-grandmother and your aunt. When you're not around, you have to take care of them, do you remember?"

Yinfeng replied sonorously and forcefully: "I would like to obey the holy edict, please rest assured, Ama."

Kangxi raised the wine bottle and drank it all in one gulp. Thirty thousand officers and soldiers also finished the wine. Kangxi shouted: "The three armies set off!"

With dragon flags fluttering and drums playing, His Majesty Kangxi hurriedly walked down the Wufeng Building, got on his horse, and led [-] elite cavalry in front of the imperial court, facing the howling north wind and the flying snow all over the sky, and marched out of Beijing in a mighty way. Some people saw him off along the street, and they didn't calm down until they left the city gate.

When passing by the Jingmen Tower, Kangxi suddenly heard the sound of a zither, which was the song Guanglingsan, which is famous for its majestic momentum and unique style.This is a song to send off the hero to go on an expedition, and it floats far away from the top of the city tower.

Kangxi's heart moved, and he turned his head to look at the tall city gate. A person was playing the piano in the snow, and his white clothes almost blended with the snowstorm in the sky. He couldn't see her outline clearly from a distance, but he knew her face. She was transparently white, against her black hair and black eyes, in the snow that filled the sky, there was a vast expanse of whiteness everywhere, and as long as one saw her, it seemed that there were only black and white in the world.

Looking at that familiar figure, Kangxi could feel his heart beating uncontrollably in his chest. As long as he looked at her, a feeling he had never felt before hit him and spread all over his body. It made his hands and feet weak, and he almost couldn't hold the rein firmly on the horse.Kangxi fixedly looked at the person who was concentrating on playing the piano, not looking at the team below.Kangxi's face was dark and unclear.

At this time, Fei Yanggu rode over and asked for an order: "Your Majesty, you have already left the city. The wind and snow are getting heavier and heavier. Please, Your Majesty, please board Luanyu."

Kangxi tore off the sable fur on his body, and said in Fei Yanggu's surprised eyes: "Send it to the third princess."

Before Fei Yanggu had time to stop Kangxi from taking off his clothes in the cold weather, he was already fooled by his words. None of the harem ladies attended the military parade today. The emperor asked him to send the clothes to the third princess. Wouldn't it be to let him go back to the palace?

Kangxi pointed to the top of the city gate, and Fei Yanggu realized that it turned out that it was the third princess who was playing the piano to see off the soldiers!She deserves to be the three princesses who never let their eyebrows go, and who have been on the battlefield!The soldiers under him could still hear this piece of music that someone came to talk about when they were out of the city, which one was not invigorating!He is going to make a life-and-death relationship with Gerdan, and then return triumphantly.

However, with such a long distance, coupled with the continuous snowfall, there was no visibility at all. How did the emperor see at a glance that the figure was the third princess?At this time, Fei Yanggu couldn't afford to think too much, so he quickly asked someone to carry Luanyu over, urging Kangxi to get in the car quickly, while he rode his horse towards the tower.

Fei Yanggu was still a little excited, and sure enough, when he got to the tower, he also saw Mo Ju who was always by the side of the third princess.Fei Yanggu was already satisfied to see Mo Ju again before going on the expedition.

He quickly put on the cloak with both hands.Jianning's eyesight is very good, even through the wind and snow, she can clearly see the whole scene where Kangxi took off his cloak and asked Fei Yanggu to send him.After accepting it, let the general hurry back to his team.

After finishing his errands, Fei Yanggu returned to Kangxi's imperial car. Kangxi asked through the heavy curtain of the car, "Did she say anything?"

Fei Yanggu thought that the emperor was asking if the third princess had brought him a message, and replied: "The third princess didn't say anything."

Kangxi was obviously a little disappointed and didn't let him back down.Fei Yanggu felt that he hadn't handled this errand well, how could he be so stupid!At that time, I didn't ask the third princess what she wanted to bring to the emperor.

He thought for a while and added: "If the emperor asked the servant if the third princess had said anything else, the servant could vaguely hear her talking to herself."

Kangxi raised the curtain of the car: "What did she say?"

Fei Yanggu regretted that he shouldn't have betrayed the third princess in order to restore his life, but Kangxi obviously wouldn't give up until he got the answer, "Well, the third princess said... troublesome." He was about to explain that maybe the third princess didn't It's not that you are troublesome, the emperor, it may be that I am a slave!

Kangxi had already put down the curtain, and said: "Go ahead and do your work, you don't need to wait by my car." Behind the curtain, Kangxi smiled unconsciously.

Jianning has never been afraid of the cold since she was a child. In winter, when others are wrapped in thick mink fur and fox fur, she can come and go freely in this spring outfit.Every time Kangxi gave her his clothes, or asked her court lady to go back to pick up thick clothes, she would say that he was troublesome in exchange.

But every time he sees her wearing thin clothes, Kangxi can't help being "eventful".

After spending the whole morning in the car in a daze, Kangxi didn't have the time to read the brochures, and he wanted to deal with Galdan's battle strategy. His mind was full of memories of the two of them getting along from childhood to adulthood. He thought that things from a long time ago had been forgotten. However, the image of her in every scene is clearly printed in his mind.

He always thought that his deep affection for Jianning was derived from the brotherhood of blood, but he was becoming more and more unable to deceive himself, especially when he heard the news of Urgon's death and Jianning decided not to marry for life. Brother Huang was actually greatly relieved!Even in front of her, Kangxi almost couldn't control his smile!Which royal brother would be so happy about the death of his brother-in-law? !

Kangxi has long been aware of his strangeness, and has been deceiving himself and others.When he found that there were more and more signs and had to face them, he also planned to continue deceiving himself. He wanted to bury this feeling deeply, rot in his stomach, and bring it into the coffin after death. He would never tell anyone. .

If someone says that being an emperor can make the world rich, you can get whatever you want.Then Kangxi will definitely sneer, so what if he is the emperor?God just likes to play tricks on people like this, and will put people's most cherished things within reach, but also out of reach.

As soon as the emperor left, the prince was still young, all kinds of ghosts and snakes appeared, and the officials in Yuqing Palace came to give gifts to the prince one after another.If you came to ask him to do something, Yinfeng would tell him directly, "You can't bend the law for personal gain, you should find another place."

If someone had to come to give him a gift for no reason, at this time, the crown prince would not meet him in person, but his subordinate Kong eunuch would handle it on his behalf, and record the name of the official who gave the gift and the amount of the gift in the book.

If Princess Jianning lives in the palace, their atmosphere will be more restrained. After all, if you want to make small moves under the eyes of this princess, you still have to weigh your own weight first, but Jianning has been living in Changchun recently. garden.Perhaps it was because of the relationship between the crown prince supervising the country, and in order to avoid the suspicion of participating in politics, she never returned to the palace.On the contrary, it is convenient for these officials who want to follow the prince's way.

The prince knew before that there were many officials following Suo'etu in the court, but before Kangxi and Jianning were in the palace, his aunt had always been strict with him, so how could he be allowed to join those people, so the prince has been working with him all along. Suo'etu kept his distance.

This time Suo'etu went to the conquest with his own driver, and those under him who looked after him all moved closer to the crown prince.Originally, the banner played by Suo'etu was the prince's party!They haven't been in contact with the righteous master for many years, and they have been scratched for a long time!Now that he has this opportunity, how can he not perform well in front of the prince.So since some people started to give gifts to the prince, others have searched for rare treasures or things that the prince prefers to follow suit.

As for the prince, it's up to them to make troubles, but when dealing with political affairs, he will never be biased just because someone gave him a gift or came to set up a relationship.

The upper study room is where the princes study, except that the eldest brother has already left the palace to build a mansion and does not need to study anymore.The second child from Yinfeng to the ninth elder brother has already entered the study room.In the harem, there are still a few children under the age of six who are not allowed to come.Kangxi was a king with many sons, and now there are more than 20 children in the palace.

The prince was educated to be extremely self-denying and diligent since he was a child. After finishing his business, he would go to the study to see his brothers in class, and urge them to do their homework, so that the prince who wanted to relax could have to listen carefully to the class.

If any little elder brother in the palace, Little Gege, catches a cold or has a minor illness or pain, the prince will also consult Yin Yin, the imperial physician in charge of the imperial hospital.

Although the crown prince is still a little immature in dealing with government affairs, he is still young and has just started to listen to politics. He is just in the stage of learning. The courtiers are very tolerant of him, especially seeing what the crown prince did after Kangxi left. The courtiers of the world and the country are naturally comforted by Lao Huai. With such a prince in the country, why worry about the Qing Dynasty being unhappy?

However, the neutral faction looked down on those ministers who kept going to Yuqing Palace, but those people were Suo'etu's confidantes, and they were so powerful that the rest of the ministers felt that they could not afford to sin , and dare not say anything more.I just hope that the prince will not be led astray by them!
