Chapter 10 The tenth chapter and the fifteenth king comforted the ministers who went to the country to make mistakes, and He Shen was bored

Liu Yong said, "There is a decree of kindness", but the "decree of kindness" has not been issued for a long time. The people of Ji's family have been living like years, as dark as in the steamer, and the scorching is unbearable. Looking forward to a decree, pointing to Qianlong " Nostalgia for the past" Enshi Yulu, but afraid of this imperial edict.Because the charges have never been determined, the words that come out are a bit light, and some hats are frightening to death when they are buckled.Once the edict ordered his life, even the room for turning around and the hope of begging for his life were cut off.But it's so ups and downs, it's extremely tormenting, the whole house is in danger outside, internal worries and people are restless, everyone is like ants in a hot pot.Ji Yun is the head of the family, so he has to be stable on the outside. Dai Dongyuan, Liu Shitui, Wang Wenzhi, Wang Wenshao and other famous Confucian friends came to visit him, and he also had a calm and open-minded demeanor of "not being alarmed by changes", and burned his heart. It seems that I have no choice but to harden my heart and go forward.

Seven days have passed, and Ji Yun, who served Mrs. Ma the night before, did not close his eyes all night. He just sat on a chair and fell asleep for a while. Some actor in Shanxi Lane on the south side of Cherry Xie Street sang, "Ou—oh—" a bright voice pierced through the wall. Entering the courtyard, Ji Yun woke up tremblingly. Seeing that Mrs. Ma had already woken up with bright eyes and a thin arm like a reed stick resting on the outside of the quilt, she heard the women from Mrs. Shen outside who were eating like a dream, so she walked over. Covering her with the quilt, he said softly: "I won't touch the water for three days, so a good person can't survive. I'll give you a bowl of noodles with ready-made ginger vinegar, maybe it can be cured."

"I'm useless. The Buddha is going to call me to the west." Ma shook her head, looked at her husband without blinking, stretched out her thin hand to help her husband sit on the edge of the bed, and said softly: "... really Yes... just now I saw the guide boy, and I'm going to take me away... I said I couldn't let you go, but he said that your householder had this fate... He also said that you committed too many sins... First off, Mr. An He also came... He said that the virtues accumulated by the ancestors of the Ji family, you are not in the way... He also said that the imperial decree is coming... The boy laughed and said that he would come back at night, and I would wake up..."

Ji Yun listened dubiously, but smiled wryly.There are many such things in his own writings.What happened to Li Dai and what happened to Lu Jianzeng can all be counted as crimes. He usually scribbles and draws with his pen and ink in games. How many times have I been remonstrated, and now it seems like a long farewell, it is really sad to hear every word, tears rolled in my eyes but still flowed out.He whispered comfortingly to Mrs. Ma: "It's because you are weak and see the gods, and you are obsessed with reading my book. Take care of yourself, this disease will be fine..." Mrs. Ma smiled quietly and said : "Before I married into your family, I was eating vegetarian food and reciting Buddha's name... What is there to be afraid of when I describe myself? I am worried for you... I knew it was the Buddha or the ancestor who enlightened me when I made this dream... ...You are not in the way...My heart is very clear, and Long Live God can see it! Your life is safe, and I can feel at ease when I leave..." Madam Ma looked at the brightly lit window, gasped for a while and calmed down, and said, "Take a rest, that's what you said, give me a bite of ginger vinegar noodles, don't want a little bit of meat, maybe it's too strong..." Ji Yun smiled and said: "They also didn't sleep all night, it's hard to squeeze into this place I’m all asleep, let me come, take a bite and I’ll rest.” As he spoke, he got up and went to the outer room of the study, and saw that the curtains were covered, Caifu, Aiyun, Huiqing, Mingxuan and three other girls were crowded together. On the bed, some fell asleep on the spring bench, and then quietly went to the porch to poke the stove and sit on the pot.

This time, everyone in the main room of the study woke up, and Guo Caifu came out to drive Ji Yun back to the room.Several people were busy making the bed, changing the medicine pot, sweeping the floor and washing their hands, waiting for the coal fire to ignite and boiling the water, cooking for Ma Shi, boiling the medicine, and cooking for Ji Yun in the kitchen. It took half an hour to count. ready.Ji Yun wandered around the outside room for a while, and just returned to the room to serve a bowl for dinner, when he faintly heard gongs sifting in the street and the sound of horseshoes, he couldn't help being startled, Ma said on the bed: "My lord, the imperial decree is here, hurry up!" ..." Maybe he was so excited that he lost his breath all of a sudden.Everyone was panicking and at a loss, when there was a rush of footsteps outside, Xing Wuwei hurried in and said: "Master Ji, the prince of the inner palace is here to pass the order!"

"I'll come right away." Ji Yun hurriedly replied, turned around and ordered, "Greeting my wife, turn her over—" He strode out after speaking.I have seen Wang Lian waiting in the main courtyard. "Ji Yun listen to the decree!" Wang Lian did not enter the house, so he stood on the south side under the dripping eaves of the main hall, and when Ji Yun knelt and kowtowed, he proclaimed the decree, "Er Ji Yun, as a humble scholar, is no second to me. En cumulatively relocated and promoted, living in the position of Ding Xuan Mimi to the extreme of the people and ministers, he did not think about purely serving the country, being loyal to the master, indulging the family slaves to protect relatives and doing whatever he wanted! , the model that is intended to be severely punished is Su Chaogang. I think that I have done a lot of work for a long time, and I have done a lot of work in curing the illness of the former empress. Therefore, I will not die. I will send it to the Urumqi army to serve. Continued Redemption. Here it is!"

"The minister's crimes should be punished, and the emperor's grace is great!" Ji Yun kowtowed deeply, "The guilty minister Ji Yun trembled and thanked you!" This is a "military style" punishment, which is lighter than sending them to Heilongjiang to serve as slaves with armored men, or killing Ula and Uliasutai before the army.Since he didn't make any appointments, what Ji Yun was most worried about was that Yu Minzhong and Shen's generation were provoking and provoking Qianlong under Qianlong's knees, which annoyed Qianlong. "There is no harm to my life", thinking of Mr. Dong's words and Mrs. Ma's dream omen, I feel awed and surprised again.Thinking back to Xinjiang is thousands of miles away from here, the road in the middle is rugged and dangerous, and the Hezhuo Weiping military is in the ascendant, thinking about Yunshan Guanhe, thinking back to the return journey is endless, and it is difficult to suppress sadness... Thinking of this, his face Has become pale, struggled a bit, but failed to get up.

"Master Ji, please come up." After Wang Lian announced the decree, he changed into a smile all over his face, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him with both hands, and said, "Let's congratulate the master! If you do this, the disaster will be half retreated. Although he said If it’s farther away, it’s still for the imperial court to do business, and it’s our Master Ji who has been ordered to return to Beijing for three years or two years!” He couldn’t stop nagging, “They were terrified when the accident happened, There is still water in my eyes, I said what's wrong? Ji Zhongtang is the most talented prime minister in the Qing Dynasty, the emperor loves him, the old man didn't say anything, this is a disaster, and the red sun will still be in charge in the future! Look, look, Isn't this the decree of grace has come? This is the time to turn..." Shi Xiang and Yang Yi's family were all sweating, hiding in the second gate to listen to the news, and they all felt relieved after hearing the edict. The man rushed in to report his safety, and heard Ji Yun call, "Bring fifty taels of silver to the prince for tea", and went to the accountant to get the silver and gave it to Wang Lian.Wang Lian said "I'm sorry" and he accepted it with a smile, and said a lot of comfort and auspicious words before leaving the mansion to ride away.

Ji Yun saw them off and stood in the empty courtyard, looking at the half cloudy and half sunny sky, suddenly there was a feeling of a world away in his heart, as if everything was vaguely familiar, but also became strange and indifferent, seeing the family full of The courtyard was still running around to tell each other, suddenly remembered Mrs. Ma's illness, and walked into the study of the west courtyard in a daze.Caifu and several people have been waiting under the pavilion. When they saw him come in, they beat Qian'er together to say hello and congratulations.At this moment, Ji Yun felt that his soul was calm, and he frowned and said: "This is just a life, what is there to celebrate? You take care of my books and luggage, and discuss with the old Shi Xiang outside to choose a few people to follow me My wife can't take care of these things. Ai Yunhui is still young, so you should work harder. I guess Liu Shian still has arrangements. This matter is up to him. My wife is so sick. If I ask him for a few days, I will probably not refute it. For face..." Guo Caifu's face was yellow and tear-stained, and she was exhausted after days of exhaustion, but her daughter was Lu Jianzeng's daughter-in-law, and this was the beginning of the incident, but Ji Yun was willing to die of exhaustion in peace, so he hurriedly held back He repeatedly agreed, and then said: "My wife is already awake. We have discussed that we can exchange some money for the jewelry on the head and face. The person named Xing outside has already asked the people from the Ministry of Punishment to withdraw. If he wants to keep his family property, he will have enough money. , I will follow the master to the west to serve, and I will pick a few proper servants to follow. No matter how difficult it is, we can get through it." Ji Yun felt a little relieved, squatted down under the pavilion and used a fan to decoct the fire, and said in his mouth: "So It’s a long way, and I don’t know when I’ll be back, so the servants will follow me and make a promise. None of you should follow me, what’s the matter with a woman who served in the army before?” Just as he was talking, he saw Xing Wuwei take him with him. Seeing Liu Yong come in, he threw away his fan and got up and said, "Mr. Liu is here? Please sit inside." Liu Yong only nodded slightly, stood still in the courtyard, and said:

"There is a decree, Ji Yun listens to the announcement!" This sentence was like a thunderbolt from the blue sky, which stunned everyone in the courtyard and the corridor: just received the decree, the front and rear feet are good, and it is another decree!Ji Yun expected that things would change drastically, he was shocked, his face was as pale as paper, he knelt down and kowtowed tremblingly, "The sinner Ji Yun respectfully listened to the decree..." "As ordered by the emperor," Liu Yong glanced at the terrified Ji Yun, and said with a smile, "Will Ji Yun go to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to meet me immediately. Here you go!"

Ji Yun's eyes widened all of a sudden.He just woke up, and he was in a fog again. It is not unusual to summon a criminal minister, but it is unheard of to summon a criminal minister who has already been convicted. Master gourd medicine.After being stunned for a while, he felt impolite, and hurriedly kowtowed and replied: "The guilty minister... obey the order..." "Don't be suspicious, Mr. Ji, I will accompany you into the palace." Liu Yong smiled and helped Ji Yun up, "I went in early in the morning. The emperor said that your order of punishment has been issued, and I will see you again before I leave. Nothing else It means that the family members can feel at ease, the Shuntian Mansion of the Criminal Ministry and the infantry command yamen will return, and the family property has been ordered to be returned..." He said, Ji Yun's heart was hazy, blank, and blurred It was like a pot of paste, and I couldn't hear what he said clearly. ... After taking Liu Yong's big sedan chair to the Forbidden City, entering the Xihua Gate, entering the Longzong Gate, and reaching the military plane, Ji Yun was stunned, like a fool entering the city, or like a nightmarisher.Liu Yong listened stupidly when he was talking to others, and when someone saluted, he nodded and answered with a dumbfounded smile. A gust of breeze blew over the square in front of Qianqing Gate, and he realized that he was already in the red-clothed purple noble team among the dragon tower and phoenix palace.Seeing the eighth elder brother Yongxuan and the fifteenth elder brother Yongyan coming out of Yongxiang talking softly, Yu Minzhong, Agui and Shen also came out of the military computer room to say hello, Ji Yun hurriedly kowtowed to Brother Yongxuan, just now After saying "Sinner——", Yong Yan waved his hand with a smile and said, "Save this to the Lord Long Live. You go a long way, and when you come back, ask someone to come to my house. I have a good mule for you. " Yong Xuan and Ji Yun were used to joking, and said with a smile: "Why do you look so dumb? Don't act like a mourner, remember that you still owe me a letter, and write it to me before you leave. !" "There is a poem in Su Dongpo' whoever will ruin the old scalp'." Ji Yun knew that the situation had improved, and he was completely relieved, and Yin also laughed, "I'm afraid I won't be able to serve the men anymore, so I'm not surprised, it's good if I don't become a dumb bird " Seeing Bu Li coming out of Yongxiang entrance, he stopped talking and joking, taking his time and following up the Hall of Mental Cultivation with a draft in his heart. Qianlong just came back from Xiannongtan.Offering sacrifices to Xiannongtan and plowing is a great gift in the suburbs of spring, and "supporting the plow" is also a show, and they are all homework.The golden dragon robe, gown and velvet crown are pasted three layers inside and three layers outside, and the "appearance" must be decent. The deacons are swarming around, and the warm spring sun in March has made sweat and heavy clothes .After bathing and changing clothes, Fang took off his soft shoes and took a walk in the courtyard. Seeing Ji Yun wearing a gray market cloth gown, he followed Bu Li towards the Chuihua Gate, so he stood still and said with a smile: "It's Ji Yun, it's been a long time." "Your Majesty..." Ji Yun prostrated himself on the ground, and for some reason, his heart felt sad, and he poured out a five-flavored bottle priced at a price of a hundred products, but he couldn't taste it, "The guilty minister deserves to die, I have failed the emperor's kindness... I didn't expect to be spared from the crime." , I can still see Longyan! I have no regrets even if I died outside the western frontier..." Qianlong saw a witty, intelligent, talented and trustworthy vassal, haggard and destitute in less than half a month, as if he had been gone for ten years, his gray and unkempt braids were trembling, his voice was choked with mourning, and his words could not be continued, he couldn't help but shuddered His face was moved, his gaze shifted, he breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "Go into the Nuan Pavilion and talk..." Ji Yun kowtowed in agreement, got up and followed Qianlong in.As usual, Qianlong was promoted to the kang and sat down. Seeing Ji Yun long kneeling in front of the grille, his face full of confusion and tears, he ordered: "Sit over there. I have something to ask and some things to give." "Yes," Ji Yun sat down tremblingly, took the towel handed over by the eunuch and carefully wiped the corners of his eyes, then bowed his head and said, "The guilty minister respectfully listens to the emperor's instructions." "Come on." Qianlong smiled and said, "Looking at your knowledge and wisdom, reading your books seems to be very experienced and solid. Why can't you help to toss around? I heard that the servants at home are also very restless. I'm afraid that my colleagues outside may also have a cold world situation—so you are a silver-like wax gun head!" Ji Yun was biting the bullet and was going to be reprimanded by him with thunder and lightning, but he never thought that he would be treated like this. Joy, sorrow, surprise, and trembling, his face was full of smiles and tears, and said: "Although the sinful minister is not careful in his words and deeds, how dare he not respect the fate of heaven? Thunder is angry and he does not know how to fear, that is the minister of the owl... ordered On that day, the minister closed his doors and thought about his mistakes. He followed the Lord for decades, and did not make any contribution. Gao Shiqi was convicted in the past, and the Spring Festival couplets on the door wrote, "The world's situation is shocking, and the world is really cold." Today I personally saw it... But I was guilty of the sky, and I dare not use the word "flame and cool" to distinguish right from wrong. It’s because of people’s envoy’s sins and atonement, so you can’t use heat to cool down sinners.” Qianlong nodded silently, holding the bowl lid on the table in one hand, and asked, “How old are you this year? I remember fifty-one years old? " "Back to the emperor, I was born in the second year of Yongzheng, and this year I am fifty-two years old." "Can the bones of the body still support it?" Ji Yun glanced at Qianlong quickly, then quickly lowered his head and replied: "I have always been physically strong, and I don't care about anything other than writing. The only thing I'm not good at drinking is smoking. My body is not bad." "That's good." Qianlong said lightly, "You came from the Hanlin to enter the military plane, and you have never been a local official. You have written in the military and government affairs, so you are in the study of the Siku and the Ministry of Rites. After all, you are just a scholar. Secondly, you are guilty, the imperial court has a system, and I can't return privately to cover up. I consulted several ministers, and the ministers agreed that you have committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. According to this crime, it will be sent to the Ministry for discussion. One hundred Ji Yun is just one Die. But you have been with me for decades and get along day and night. I know you very well. First, you are not arbitrarily arbitrarily powerful. Heavy love, frivolous and frivolous words, gimmicks, and occasional misconduct. There are some presumptuous places. You don’t dare to bully the king, and you don’t have it. This is a sympathetic feeling. Originally Fukang’an wanted you, but he went To fight Jinchuan, we have to go to Dajianlu. It is a place of smog, and the enemy's situation is extremely complicated. I am afraid that something will fall. So I sent a decree to Zhaohui Hailancha. They replied that they only arrived last night, and they all said that they should live well. Settle you. So I sent you a decree early this morning. Although the place is far away, the people are friendly. Zhaohui and the others will never make things difficult for you. Send it to other state capitals. The dirty officials who didn’t know the details made a mistake. I mean, wanting to commit to the decree, what crime can you not figure out? That is what makes you indisputable! Go... far away from the Central Plains. Some places are promising, but there are hidden dangers. Look here Dangerous, to borrow a sentence from "Three Kingdoms", "Although it is in the mouth of the tiger, it is as safe as Mount Tai"!" After speaking, he smiled. Qianlong spoke eloquently, rationally and affectionately, Xuxu sincerely expressed his heart to his family and children, when Ji Yun entered the palace, his anxiety, depression, and sorrow all disappeared.Hearing Qianlong's earnest deliberation and planning for his own future, feelings of gratitude arose spontaneously, and he covered his face with his hands and bowed his body, unable to restrain his grief, and let tears overflow.Choking with sobs, he said: "Your majesty... the love and love that Ji Yun dares to forget one day, that is, the scum that pigs and dogs can't eat! Your majesty..." "Okay, it's good to understand." Qianlong was also moved by his words, wiped away his tears sadly, and smiled after a long time, "Hai Lancha's replay is interesting, 'Ji Yun is a meat eater, I heard the master said "meat eat Zhe despicable" will be "despised" again this time, I set up a mutton pot and wait for him, I will definitely shove him like a dog!'——He didn't write the word 'enough', he wrote 'dog' like a dog!" He also said, "I still want to meet people, so you go back and prepare to go on your way. You have many friends at home, and there will be no shortage of them." Ji Yun burst into tears and smiled, then stood up and kowtowed. As soon as he stood up, Qianlong stopped and asked: "There is something else I want to ask you. If you report to your in-law Lu Jian Zeng Tong, I'm sure you have it. But there is no evidence at all in the search of Lu's house. How did you report to him?" "This..." Ji Yun was taken aback, and hurriedly replied, "I really didn't write a letter to him. At that time, the imperial edict was blaming the urgent situation. I packed some tea and a pinch of salt in an empty envelope. You know, the emperor wants to investigate his 'salt tea deficit'..." Before he finished speaking, Qianlong laughed loudly, waved his hands and said: "Go, go, you are so clever... You can see me every day, and you can tell me the truth, how can it be such a big deal? Write a letter to Lu Jianzeng, to plead guilty and return the money, and I will also give you grace... go." Seeing Wang Ren coming in with a stack of Lao Gao's memorials, he asked, "What is that? It was sent by the Military Aircraft Department Is it?" "Return to the master." Wang Ren carefully placed the memorial on the case in front of the window, and said to Qian'er, "It is a copy from various provinces, and there is no abbreviation. The servant just went to deliver the "Amitabha Sutra" to Lafayette. When I came back, I went to the gate of the Military Aircraft Department, and Gao Yuncong took the secret memorials from there. There were too many memorials to carry them all at once, so Master He Shen asked his servants to bring them here. He said that others would come in immediately." Qianlong While listening, he said "hmm", and found the memorials of Fukang'an and Sichuan governor Ge Luo on the case, and asked casually, "Who is with Lafayette at this moment?" Seeing that Qianlong was interested, Wang Ren asked himself , his face was beaming with joy, his facial features all piled up and smiled, and he said: "There are old concubine Ding'an, Master Chun, and Seventeenth Old Fujin playing leaf cards with Lafayette, and Master Rong is going to give the Koran to help Lafayette." Look at the card. Twenty-four Fujin had just come out when the servant went. She asked for a name talisman for Twelve Gege. The filial piety was not returned, so she came out after asking for Ann. There was also Mrs. Hai Lancha, Mrs. Zhaohui, a large group of people Accompanying Lafayette to talk about karma and talk about "Taishang Induction", it was very lively and joyful. Later, Mrs. Heshen also went in, and everyone joked about it. Appreciate the incense burner, some reward toothpicks, fans... Lafayette is very happy!" Qianlong looked at the memorial and saw that Fukang'an was already in Chengdu. He had a meeting with Ge Luo and ordered 5,000 elite soldiers to plan a surprise attack on Dajinchuan in three days. : This Fukang'an wants to make a quick decision, and he kills first and then plays, and his mind is very clear-Little Sha Luoben is a slutty person, and there is old Seleben in the tribe to support him. Drum set.But the old Sha Luoben resisted the Qing soldiers and entangled for more than 20 years. With Fu Hengzhi's ability, he almost lost his life in the grassland, and Jinchuan is dangerous. Is it possible to take such a risk?Thinking about it again, if Jinchuan is not settled early, and the troops go directly to the arrow furnace, there will be changes in Tibet, and the retreat will be cut off, and it will become a corrupt situation... He feels that Fukang'an is reckless, but he is reckless, and he is justified. Thinking about how to write this Zhu Zhu, I simply stopped thinking about it, frowned and looked at Fu Kang'an's memorial, and then pulled Ge Luo's paper for consideration, and asked: "I also rewarded Heshen's family? For no reason, why?" "Ah, it's this..." Seeing that Qianlong was silent and ready to step down, Wang Ren hurriedly apologized and said, "It's the old concubine Ding'an talking about reincarnation, and talking about the appearance of Lord He Shen, as if she was a woman in her previous life. She also acted like a Manchurian aunt, looking familiar. Qin Meimei said that Jinxia, ​​who died earlier, was the one who gave birth to her. Empress Dowager Lafayette suddenly remembered, and said: "Poor, you are really good. The more you talk about it, the more I think about it." Is she so stupid? Zhuanlun'er has become He Shen and came to serve the emperor again! It's strange that his master loves him so much and reuses him!' Busyly asked Qin Meimei to go to the Buddhist Hall of Zhongcui Palace to offer incense, and asked for "Emperor Liang's Confession" The book came to be copied, and Mrs. Heshen of Ke Ke’er also went in. Everyone joked for a while, and then rewarded these things. Later, when she came, she didn’t say anything about turning the wheel to save her life. Lafayette was thinking about this idea. The servant guessed..." As soon as he mentioned that He Shen was Jinxia's reincarnation, Qianlong's heart thumped, and he was suddenly bewildered and startled! ... In fact, perhaps subconsciously, he had thought about it a long time ago, but the matter was too vague and common sense.After this statement made it clear, Qianlong really came to his senses like enlightenment, and he didn't need to think about it, he had already firmly believed in it!In just this moment, the appearances of Jinxia and He Shen were superimposed on each other, the bright red birthmark on He Shen's neck, his woman's speech and gestures, the empress dowager's disdain for him and his own kind of love at first sight The intimacy... There is no reason for everything, and all the closeness and distance put together without reason are called "fate"... In the drizzle and misty evening of Chengqian Palace, the Jiaotong Yaoqin with broken strings in the side hall, hanging in the room. The dark palace with white silk armbands, and Jinxia's black silk cut hair, her pear blossoms with rainy tears, and her melodious libretto and singing voice... Forty-five years have passed, and it has become as ethereal as a light smoke. The past——He was like a person who was being called by a passer-by on the road. He turned around and looked at the memory, and recognized it all at once: "It is you, it really is you, after all, you came back to serve me..."——Qianlong vaguely Watching the bars on the grille blurt out.Wang Ren had never seen him like this before, he seemed to be distracted and dreamy, he was startled, and while trying to exchange tea for him, he asked, "Your Majesty, what did you say?" "Oh! . . . nothing." Qianlong suddenly turned back from the distant and far-fetched feelings and thoughts, only then did he know that he was still in the midst of thousands of letters and government affairs.He smiled self-consciously, tried his best to dismiss these absurd thoughts, frowned and focused on Jinchuan military affairs, pondered for a while, and commented on Fukang'an's greetings: I have read both the prelude and this booklet, and after considering Groo's memorial, it seems feasible for you to "immediately enter the army and drive directly into it".And Qing marched in three days, although I wanted to stop it, it was too late.I am very decisive and courageous, but also not without military acumen.Qing Zuo said, "The so-called success depends on the sky and people plan things. It is never too late to decide things. Do not do things when you are in doubt. Do not doubt when the time comes." This shows the spirit of the young and powerful generals to defeat the enemy.However, the soldiers are fierce and the battle is dangerous, and I am very worried that there is no sure way to win.In this battle of hitting eggs with stones, even if you are lucky, you should not keep it, and you should be cautious and encourage it.Now that we have done it, I hope that there will be an echo early on. Complete victory means total victory, total defeat means total defeat, unwinnable undefeated means unbeatable undefeated, and there must be no concealment.The lessons learned from Zhang Guangsi are not far away, so I would rather not be afraid! I feel that I still have something to say, even if the battle is unfavorable, I can report honestly and increase troops to fight again. Thinking about it, it is not very auspicious-what's the point of blindly saying "what to do if you lose"?Now that Fukang'an is on the front line, it's hard to say.Instead, Qianlong became flustered and disturbed. He tore through Gero's paper again, and picked up the pen to criticize something, but it was too late to say anything. The pen hung in the air for too long, and a big drop of cinnabar juice fell on the paper. basically.The blood red was very dazzling, Qianlong suddenly felt unlucky, put down his pen, clothes and shoes and got off the kang impatiently, gathered up the two memorials and kneaded them into a ball, pointed to Wang Ren and said, "Burn it!" Wang Ren hurriedly agreed Before reaching the edge of the kang, He Shen smiled and walked quickly into the hall, threw his sleeves and kowtowed and said, "Master, the people sent by Hailancha have arrived! The slave just went to the Meridian Gate to see them. Some are married and some are married." The girls of Huang Hua'er are all very beautiful..." He was breathing a little fast, his eyes sparkled with excitement, and he pointed to the south with his right hand and said cheerfully, when he suddenly thought that this was a performance in front of Qianlong, his cheeks trembled and became He smiled, and his tone immediately became solemn: "The women in the Western Regions are beautiful, and many of them are nobles, who are very dignified. The people in the Ministry of Rites said that this is different from prisoners of war. There is no precedent for how to send them. You have to ask for an order to be implemented, and the servant will Come in..." Qianlong didn't notice the difference in his demeanor before and after, and listened with a smile on his cup.The light and shadow from the south window slanted in, reflecting He Shenting's beautiful figure, with a pink and melon-like face, between the brows seemed to be Jinxia's "Hanyanyishao" description of "Hanyanyixiao" between the items. The "stretching mark" of the road can also be seen clearly between the pitch and the pitch.It wasn't until He Shen finished speaking that Qianlong came back to his senses. He leaned slightly and asked in a deep voice, "Since there is no precedent, how do you think about it? This year's show girl has already been selected, and she is called into the palace to ask It’s something to be discussed by outsiders, and besides, they are advocating chaos in the family, and they should be slaves, so they can’t be promoted, so how about sending them to Xinzheku to be servants in the palace?” "It's a pity for such a woman to be a handyman. It's not appropriate to fill the harem." He Shen smiled, "Following the example of the guilty officials, they are sent to the officials' homes as slaves. The slaves think they are all beautiful things, and they are afraid of the officials I can't bear it. Since the Empress Dowager Lafayette and all the masters and ladies want to move to the Old Summer Palace to live in, it is better for the master to select them and go in to serve them according to the rules of beautiful women. The maids who were originally planned to be released next year will be released in advance. The women in Master Rong’s palace are all banner people dressed up as Hui people to serve them. In front of Lafayette, there are a few girls from the Western Regions serving them. The old people who are unique are also happy. This is filial piety, and there is a meaning of tenderness in it. Who dares to talk nonsense Eight ways? The emperor never pays attention to female sex, this is well known in the world!" Qianlong was not lecherous, and "everyone in the world knows it", He Shen said that Zhuang Suru was right, and the eunuchs and maids next to him all laughed secretly.Qianlong also smiled, but he was ashamed to accept it. He just nodded and praised: "You are very right. This matter has nothing to do with their beauty. If you deal with them generously, you can restrain the nobles of Zhuobu and Taiji, and you will not be hard-hearted. It is also good to rebel and shake their will to rebel. Treat these people well, and it will be easier to stabilize after Huo Jizhan is pacified in the future. Wang Lian, you go and deliver the decree that all Hui women will be temporarily placed in the West Sixth Office, waiting for Lafayette to choose. Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs Check it out, next year and the next year, they should be released to the court ladies, and each person will be rewarded another thirty taels of silver in addition to the regulations, and they will leave the palace and go home tomorrow!" He Shen smiled and said: "Master, this slave thinks that this matter should be issued by the empress with a decree. It's better." Reminding Qianlong with one word, he felt that he was in a hurry, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Go to Kunning Palace to pass on my will, and send it out with Yi's decree." "yes!" Wang Lian hastily responded, and backed away in deterrent steps.Qianlong glanced at the memorial on the case, and said: "Fu Kang'an's copy was sent to the Military Aircraft Department. He has brought 5,000 people into Jinchuan. How the Sichuan Green Camp will respond, and how to guarantee the supply, food and wages, have not been detailed. You want Know the situation on the front line at any time, don't write abridged notes on him, just hand them over directly. He marched into the army without asking for an order, and the responsibility is too great, and this matter is not allowed to be spread outside." He said, sending out the memorials of Fukan'an and Ge Luo Pushed: "Look at it first!" He Shen glanced at Qianlong quickly, held it carefully with both hands, and then bent down to take advantage of the sunlight under the window to read it attentively—these are two extremely short copies, which are clear at a glance ——He lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said, "Your Majesty, don't worry, Fukang'an will definitely win this battle!" Qianlong smiled and asked, "What knowledge do you have?" "Little Sha Luoben is better than his father, old Sha Luoben, just like a chicken is compared to a phoenix." He Shen said solemnly, "Fu Kang'an is better than Fu Heng in military affairs. In this way, Xiao Sha is not Fu Kang'an's opponent at all. .” "Well, it seems reasonable." "Neqin Zhang Guangsi fought back and forth in Jinchuan, but he never entered the hinterland. Fu Heng occupied all of Jinchuan and attacked Erya. The geographical situation is already familiar, and Jinchuan is already in danger with the enemy and us." Qianlong couldn't help but glance at Heshen, he didn't expect Heshen to have such ability in military affairs.But he didn’t say anything, listening to him continue to say: "Old Sha Luoben killed his brother and took away his sister-in-law. Jinchuan people were not monolithic. Sha Luoben’s niece Seleben Dolma has always been waiting for the opportunity to take revenge. Now little Sha Luoben rebelled , the family naturally started a riot. Fu Heng caught Zhuoma that day and released him on the spot. This is Fu Heng's foresight. The right time and place and Sha Luoben don't take advantage of each other, so they are doomed, Fukangan This is a plan and a decision, and the brave soldiers will have a thousand firecrackers. If you dare to do this, you are afraid that the Jinchuan people will be prepared and gather heavy troops to protect the environment. Instead, they will be oppressed and huddled together to fight against the court. Because I was eager to lead troops to Dajianlu Tunza." After speaking, he licked his dry lips.Qianlong couldn't help clapping his hands and sighed, and said with a smile: "What a Heshen, he has grown up again! As the minister of military affairs, he is willing to pay attention to military affairs, this is good—" he said, and took another memorial, " This is Dou Guangnai's book, and seven counties including Xianju in Zhejiang Province have new deficits. The governor of Liangjiang, Fu Lehun, is also involved, and the vassal and weaving department have failed corruption checks. This is another Cathay Pacific coming out! Shangshu Cao Wenzhi is on a business trip in the south of the Yangtze River. I have already gone to Zhejiang to conduct a thorough investigation in the name of him and the imperial envoy. Jiang Sheng, the left servant of the Ministry of punishment, and Yi Ling, the right servant of the Ministry of industry, have also gone. I have already talked to Agui about this matter. You and Yu Min Let’s take a look and see if there are any comments. If you have any relationship with Fullerhun, just explain it here, so you can avoid the case.” "The slave and Fullerhun just nodded their heads in friendship." After receiving the heavy memorial, He Shen couldn't help but feel a sinking heart: just after taking care of Cathay Pacific, another Fullerhun came out, and he really has nothing to do with the governor. However, Fu Lehun was a partner with Agui in Gubeikou and Zhangjiakou. I saw him several times in Agui's mansion, and they had been friends for decades. One accidentally got involved, and I had a little relationship with Agui just now. A better relationship will be ruined.This is just one layer, and what's more terrible is that Fu Lehun himself is the capital of the fifteenth elder brother Yongyan, and his affection is as dense as glue paint. If nothing else is shaken off, this person will offend him to the end ... Thinking nervously in his heart, he said: "But as far as I know, Fu Lehun is just aggressive and defends his weaknesses, and his conduct is fairly clean. Although Dou Guangnai impeached, I feel a little disapproving!" How did Qianlong know that he had worked so hard in a flash thought?He pondered and said: "The Shengzhu mentioned in this brochure was made in Hangzhou, and it was recommended by the fifteenth elder brother. Dou Guangnai said that there was something about sending private money to Yong Yan, and the minister paid the elder brother's attention at night. We need to find out!" Qianlong said, his face darkened, his slightly pale brows were tightened, and the glint of light flickered in his deep eyelids, staring at the outer hall in silence.He Shen's mood changed at this time.He didn't meet Yong Yan much in Beijing in Shandong, and Yong Yan didn't say anything about him, but for some reason, he always felt that the prince had a grudge against him, guarding himself like a thief, and he was very suspicious of Qian Feng. His backer is him, so he dares to make things difficult for himself! "It would be great if Lord Fifteen got involved" -- this thought flashed across his mind, he glanced carefully at the majestic and stern Qianlong, his heart trembled, and he said after considering his words: "Elder brothers are all good elder brothers. Lord Fifteen is upright and will never accept bribes from slaves. But the reason why a villain is a villain is because he is ashamed to be a villain alone. It is inevitable to cling to him. There are rumors that Lord Fifteen even bought a Wasn't it the fault of Wang Erlie and the servants around him that the girl waited by his side? Then again, the emperor, Dou Guangnai, also knows that he is picky about his bones, and will find trouble if nothing happens. Unbelievable." "I know Dou Guangnai very well. He is a direct minister, and he may be famous for his reputation, so he was not elected as a minister of the Taiwan cabinet. But he is not a liar, and you are wrong." Qianlong said, "The matter of Lu Huier is serious. As soon as Yan returned to Beijing, he played to me. It was a good story about a son in distress who was rescued by wind and dust. After I checked, there was nothing wrong with it, so I have given her a status as a side Fujin. Taoism is good in everything, but the scrutiny of human feelings is absurd. Heavenly law, it’s disgusting to blame people endlessly. Even though your rank is not high, Heshen, you are already in the center, so don’t follow others’ advice.” "Yes! I will remember it, my servant, I will never learn morality!" "It's not that you don't want Taoism, it's that you don't want fake Taoism!" "Yes! Don't be fake... Anyway, we must pay attention to the way of loyalty and forgiveness!" Qianlong laughed all of a sudden, He Shen has no academics, but he likes this shrewdness and innocence.Still wanting to talk about sending imperial envoys to investigate, Wang Ren came in from the gate of the hall, grinning and said: "Master, Fukang'an's good news has arrived! Ah Gui, Yu Minzhong and Liu Yong came in to give you the good news!" "Okay,好！”乾隆顿时高兴得脸上放光，一迭连声叫，“进来，都进来吧！”又笑谓和珅，“你有先见之明啊！” 和珅心中却有点慌乱，方才那些军事上的“卓识”其实都是阿桂在军机处剖析详明，偷听得来现发现卖，沿着这个话题，阿桂等人进来立时就网包露蹄儿。虽不至于怎么样，“掠人之美拾人牙慧”这个考语也就难当，思量着，和珅已有了主意，忙伏地叩谢，说道：“这是主上洪福！臣子奴才岂敢贪天之功呢？当日小莎倡作叛乱，糜烂川西半省，皇上运筹九重之上，即密调湖南绿营与川中大营进驻川西，云贵两省军务调度堵截西逃之路，金川未战，丑类已成瓮中之鳖！军机处阿桂秉承主子意旨调度有方，福康安智勇双全忠忱用命，残丑之虏不堪王师一击。君臣相济戮力灭敌，所以能速战速捷。金川之乱初起，皇上就说过'金川此役非前役之可比，可望一鼓全胜'，皇上这才真是高瞻远瞩万里指挥若定，不卜而知的先见之明……” 他说得又快又响又利落，平平常常的话偏说得声情井茂引人人神，一头说，晃着身子用手指划，煞是热情洋溢。阿桂人已经进来，听他口溅唾液长篇累牍说得兴头，乾隆听得脸上容光焕发，都是心里暗自掂掇：此人文才平庸，却不能不服他心智口才。好容易听到他换气，阿桂刚要插话，和珅却又接上了气，说道：“金川既平，现在善后就是第一要务。奴才以为，金川屡叛屡平，平而又叛，就因为莎氏部落以土司统率，政务不归政府节制的过，不如改土归流，设一个金川府或州，加一营绿营兵常驻防守随时羁縻。皇上曾说过要一劳永逸，这才是处常之法。不然，今日敉平，难保日后年深月久不再生事端。若从讷亲张广泗出征算起，奴才查过，粗算每月军费一百万，用去的银子累计七千万两。有这笔银子，多少金川也养活了它！而且这是通往西藏要道，反复折腾用兵，无论如何划算不上的。”说完叩一个头仰视乾隆。 “连善后也都想了？”乾隆满面笑容，注目阿桂三人，说道，“究竟福康安战况如何，捷报文本还没有看到呢！”和珅心里舒了一口气，无论怎样说，这番话足可把“先见之明”的话题隔过去了，见乾隆高兴，嘻笑说道：“奴才心里欢喜，说的多了。阿桂于敏中刘墉军务政治是长项，还该多听听他们奏陈意见的。”说得三人一笑。阿桂便将福康安的报捷折子双手呈了上去。乾隆看时，是“八百里加紧”文书字样，旁边端楷批着“报捷”两个字，下注“奴才福康安恭谨叩喜沐浴天恩”一行小字，也都写得端秀从容。他端详着那份平日用来缮写请安折子的黄绢裱纸，良久，一笑说道：“看金川的报捷折子至今心有余悸啊！单为金川这块宝地，杀了两个大学士宰相，黜落一个大学士，还杀了一个大将军。他们也都'报捷'来着，战败了还要讳过饰功，用账簿子纸，一股马粪味儿都带着来欺瞒朝廷！福康安真是我大清一宝，不愧傅恒之后！想不到短短数日之内乃能立此奇勋！”说着便展读，却是颇为简明的一篇短文： ……奴才甫至成都，即召总督、巡抚及成都将军各军门副将以上官员会商进剿。咸日金川小莎罗奔虽昏庸无能，其将索诺木悍勇善战，且彼地形势险峻道路泥泞崎岖盘折，未易轻下。奴才窃思我军火炮军械强盛远过于敌，先父自金川撤还，遗有金川详明地图，大小金川间之喇嘛庙名曰“诺美”，因色勒奔之女卓玛与索诺木不和，此来彼去攻争不已，并未驻有常驻重兵，此敌军内虚不和，形势共险之情，唯有一军速攻溃之。彼之气既夺，内扰必剧而更烈矣，一旦延迂时日，或有枭杰从中而起号召而齐心，同仇敌忾共御官军，又不知多费几多周张矣！用是奴才率一军五千精壮，仍由清水塘突袭，格罗及预先调集之七万五千绿营军待命即发。赖我皇上如天洪福，五日之内索诺木已进我掌握，且隔断其逃亡刮耳崖归路，腹心被我占领，金川之敌群鸦无首，大军继而开进，大小金川三日之内溃城而散，南起烂水，北至小黄河乃至寒水峪一带，大军营陌连接旌麾相应，登高一望，浅树丛草间旗甲鲜明，皆我煌煌天兵，而敌人已窜伏草地芦苇之中。又经两日大索，俘敌两万，尚有四万余金川平民，共推桑植活佛至大营贡献投诚，经彼与刮耳崖呼唤联络，原刮耳崖据守之一千余歼敌及四千老弱妇女子息内哄，官军乘机登崖掩袭。至此，金川全境人民土地皆俯顺朝廷焉！八日险恶混战，计俘索诺木以下敌酋官员七千二百二十三名，小莎罗奔穷极自尽，已传首三军示众，色勒奔卓玛一部投诚，首领亦羁押待命。计夺敌军人器、大炮三千斤者二十门，小炮两千斤者二十一门，药库三座，藏火药四万余包，鸟铳火枪…… 下面弓马刀矛枪刺利剑之属胪陈详细，密密麻麻都用蝇头小楷写成一片，乾隆都一览而过，末了写道： ……战况前后进序甚为繁复，其间惨烈白刃格斗状况惊心骇目，我军阵亡亦有四千人之多。奴才惊定还喜，转思此役系不经请旨擅自主张，乍为朝廷加额欣慰之余，又生惧罪之心：虽将在专间有机断之权，终有亏于人臣礼尊之义，绕室彷徨中心不安。用是从速报捷，以慰我皇上倚阙盼音之忧，且治奴才擅自进兵之罪以为后戒。福康安不胜屏营战粟静待恩诏，云山万里之外恋主思恩不能自己，临颖命笔之际心增凄切。 ... 乾隆看着，不自禁眉字口角都带了笑意，后边“请罪”几句话，说得简捷，他也觉得字字出于至诚，用目光睨了一下四个军机大臣，且不说话，提笔在折边敬空上批道： 报捷奏悉，朕心之嘉悦欣喜非言语所能形容！自庆复而讷亲张广泗败绩辱命，尔父首定金川，尔今日再定，金川自此无干戈矣！金川人民安享盛世之福，藏边道路得以畅通无滞，皆天授尔父子为朝廷解肘襟之忧也。非惟四川一地得安，亦非惟西藏受益也，此功厥伟，乃天下亿兆人民共庆同欢者也，尔钦奉君命，奉诏讨故，进兵之迟速乃将帅之权杖所及，朕但赏尔皎然忠诚戮力军国，庆尔化开夷狄纷解朝廷之忧，何及尔之不待旨而动，尔何至因此不安欤？即着将首酋索诺木槛车押赴京师献俘待处，安抚金川人民，慰恤伤亡将士，叙保有功良实军将，朕即有后命安置金川。待朕之命，即着一将领率军至打箭炉驻扎候旨，钦此！ 他满意地放下笔，笑着对四位大臣道：“颂圣的话都被和珅抢先说了。福康安的功劳怎么说？金川善后怎么办？说说看！” 四个大臣相顾而笑，于敏中笑道：“方才在军机处阿桂朗读了福康安的折子，他没写打仗细节，但听起来这一战真是非同小可！金川的战事不单是一地之役，传到西藏，有些心怀异志的藏府首脑也不能没有顾及。是福康安在四川宰鸡，要惊煞一群猴子，连英咭唎国恐怕也要收一些非分之心！所以这个功劳要比傅恒定金川征缅甸还要大！”他稍顿了一下，含笑说道，“但福康安已经封了公爵，无可再封，只可赏赐庄园物品以示皇恩荣宠。” “这是雍正三年以来朝廷野战征讨最大的胜仗，一役定西南乾坤。”阿桂回避了年羹尧的名字，高兴地说道，“确实是朝廷天下一大喜事，我看不妨多拿出点银子铺张一下。皇上南巡，有个藻饰天下的作用，宣扬文治与张扬武威可以并行，一样是教化天下垂范后世。催促格罗将战俘迅速平安押解北京，在午门献俘，当场诛戮昭示天下，由礼部制定仪节告祭太庙、天坛。福康安的爵位不能再晋，但职务可以提升，奴才看大将军、领侍卫内大臣、太子太保这些职衔可由皇上酌定。这不但关乎福康安一己功劳名份，朝廷赏责制度，更要紧的是借这事宣化武功振作官风民气，立一个榜样给八旗子弟效仿，给天下人看！” 众人听着，起初觉得阿桂有点故作姿势，摸不清他的心思。福康安还在青年，已经贵盛到了极处，这么着没头没脑加封职衔，再立功了怎么办？或者下次军事挫折，又怎么转圜？别人立了更大功劳又该怎样封赏？这对福康安本人也未必是福。听到后来品出了味道：现在官场拆烂污，民气也不振，朝廷威信日渐陵替，表彰这么个威武大将军确有振聋发聩改换耳目的效用……思索未了，乾隆已经满面欢容，右手轻拍着炕桌说道：“实在这是老成谋国之见！职务上头可以留点余地，再给他加成一等公，领武威大将军衔——午门阅兵献俘，告祭太庙天坛都使得的，就由礼部去办。”他说着，猛地想起纪昀，有他在，能好生漂亮写一篇告祭文章的……思量着又道：“传旨给翰林院，要写一篇好文章出来，还要写一首庆祝金川平定的歌词，给畅音阁配曲，郊礼时好用。纪——朕看那个叫曹锡宝的就好，写进来御览。”他看看刘墉，问道，“你怎么不说话？” “臣是在想金川设置流官的事。”刘墉沉思着，见问，忙躬身答道，“金川这地方藏苗瑶僮各族都有，历来杂居习养成俗。满汉流官去统辖……那是个产金子的地方，是非多民俗又不通，激出事端来殊难料理。以臣愚见，不如在大金川常驻一队绿营，不要征赋不要供应，也不能干预金川政治，等于是一座行营驿站。莎罗奔部落下原有十三个小土司，上边不再设大土司，小土司各划地盘各自为政，本来苗瑶等族也都分而治之。没有了统一的大头脑，这些小土司顶多打打冤家，能成什么气候？这里行营的兵驻扎着，大事出来能随时弹压，哪个猴子不老实顺手就一棍子，也就不至于再有莎罗奔聚集抗命大事变乱的事了。”他话音刚落，和珅立即附和，笑道：“刘墉的建议省钱省力省事，比我想得周全！”于敏中也说：“好！”乾隆便看阿桂。 阿桂一双苍劲的眉压得低低的。他似乎思虑得很深，瞳仁里幽暗的光闪烁不定，听完刘埔的话，一抬头见乾隆望着自己，忙含笑一躬身，说道：“刘墉可谓算无遗策。分而治之划地为牢，各自地盘利益不一，从此不至于再起大的争端。但金川其实是军事要冲，能派更大的用场。奴才以为不设政府，要设镇派驻重兵，大金川驻兵三千，小金川两千，勒乌围设总兵一员，游击、都司、守备各两员，噶拉依设副将统一指挥，茹寨下寨设参将、美诺设总兵，底木达、僧格宗等处设参将。川西绿营可向刷经寺清水塘一带移防。”他掰着手指一一划算，仰脸看着静听的乾隆说道，“这样，常驻兵力就有五万。作用已经不再是金川本地绥靖安定的事了，北边它可以控制青海南路，南边云贵有事召之即来，西藏的通道比川东川南也近得多，一道诏命，两万人马朝夕可以策应三方事变！奴才的意思是要用好金川这块军事重镇，把它变成我大清的一座大兵营，就叫'金川大营'也没有什么不好！皇上您想，当日青海罗布藏丹增造反，要是金川有兵策应，何需从西安关内大举调兵？派一员上将带金川将士由阿坝突袭行军。两天就进去了！” 乾隆攒眉凝神静听。他心里也有一张地图，随着阿桂指划，金川在军事上的作用愈来愈明晰清楚，由一个金川坐控青藏两省，又可随时策应云贵广西，这个账算得太精明了！众人都浸沉在福康安大胜的喜悦里，只为安定金川一地打算，阿桂能破除这个局限，由一地而思及天下全局，真不愧宰相胸怀！他沿这思路，想得有点激动，不言声起身下炕，背着手踱步筹思默划。他极少这样的，从来听政议政都如老僧枯禅一坐到底，一两个时辰不动身子的，几个大臣见他突然神情有变，都挺直了身子，一眼不眨地盯视乾隆。 “这是五万五千人一支常驻大军。”乾隆终于开口了，“道路气候不好……大军营房建筑，冬日取暖，粮饷供应……日常要用多少银子？”他忽然看向了和珅。 和珅心里一阵乱，用阿桂的说法，他在军务上头是个“瞎包几”，阿桂的话听着有理，乾隆的顾忌也有理，只能顺着乾隆的心思想，因干笑一声说道：“单是军饷，每月正项支出也要八万银子，因为道路不好，从成都运粮上去，还有菜蔬肉食，运上去一斤要用三斤粮钱，豆腐也盘成肉价钱了。盖营房用的砖瓦灰料都要人工搬运，这个消耗真不得了。如今圆明园工程用银正紧，福康安的大军犒赏银子也要一百万吧，还有阵亡家属抚恤银子……” “再难也要办！没有银子办正事，要你和珅何用？”乾隆不等他说完便一口截断了他，“你要照阿桂的条陈仔细筹划腾挪！” 一句话顶得和珅睁大了眼，众人才悟出和珅这次兜底儿错会了“圣意”，他还从来没有失过蹄子，阿桂刘墉和于敏中都暗暗觉得惬意解气。和珅一愣之下也顿时明白，他却偏是最能顶缸受气，泥人儿似的绝没脾气，只怔了一下，已神色如常，心不跳脸不红眨眼几一笑，说道：“奴才愚昧了，只想了钱上头度支使用，能俭省着腾挪得各处宽裕些子，遇上大事不至于囊中羞涩，还是主子说的，这是天大的'正事'，再紧也不能紧这项银子！既在那里驻大军，奴才建议另修一条驿道上去，从刷经寺到大金川小金川再向南，和古驿道连通了，成个网格子样儿，军队移防调动，粮晌菜蔬运输就方便省钱了。这也是一劳永逸的事，请主子圣裁！” 他头上风标项间承轴，转篷又快又自然，连认错带建议又一番生花妙语，那点子尴尬顿时没了，乾隆笑道：“你管着钱，能想着俭省就不为大错。修驿道这个想头好，着工部去人勘察一下，拨正项官银从速办理。现在驻军移防建营，你也要和兵部的司官合计，用多少银子从户部正项里增拨。”刘墉当下又说押解人犯一路关防，金川甫经战乱，如何安置难民，生业繁息，成都怎样养护伤兵，大军回营一路供应的事备细说了。阿桂由他的话又想及，说道：“金川可耕的地很多，只是那里狩猎放牧代代相传，不惯种植。奴才在古北口张家口都屯过田，金川的地肥得冒油，水也方便，有什么不成的？三个兵开一亩地，两人当差一人耕种，轮番耕作，种粮种菜都使得。当地百姓见官军做得好，自然跟着学。待到金川农事兴旺起来，即使不征赋，驻军就地筹粮，自给自足也是指望得的。” “好！这样集思广益就周全了。”乾隆返身坐了炕沿上，笑道，“于敏中下去写信给格罗，把今天会议情形给他透透风，一条一条再拟旨朕看过发出去。刘墉催着快把索诺木押来京师，道儿上留心，饿死病死自尽逃逸或被劫持了，就是扫朕的脸，地方官难逃死罪！”他略一顿，又道，“宝月楼落成，明天朕要去看。和珅于敏中随驾，早一点递牌子进来。”二人忙离座答应，于敏中问道：“是用车驾还是法驾？臣好知会礼部备办。” “都不用，那么一折腾又是半城人都惊动了。”乾隆说道，“就用八人抬暖轿过去，你们骑马相随。随便些就好……和珅留一下，你们跪安吧……” 待于敏中三人退辞出去，乾隆又摆手命太监们退出暖阁。和珅见他突然变得有点鬼祟，似笑不笑看自己，倒不知出了什么事，眨巴着眼小心问道：“皇上……您有吩咐奴才的话？” “没什么要紧的。”乾隆瞥一眼外殿，张了张口，又沉默一会儿才道，“你说的霍集占那头回妇，现在还在午门外头？” “是！没有奉着明旨，她们当然得候着！”和珅应口回答一句，灵机一转间已经明白乾隆意图，咧嘴一笑忙收住了，正容说道，“皇上政务太忙，这事交给奴才。奴才这会子就去，命她们全部拘押进咸安宫，挑几个头脸出色点的到大六所安置。奴才看芍药花儿就是个晓事的，和她交待一下叫过去侍候就是了。”他抿着嘴又想想，说道，“这是光明正大的事儿。容主儿想用本地人制膳，咱们中原的人做不出那个风味儿，皇上先挑几个使唤人，谁敢嚼舌头根子？” “好，你就安排。”乾隆一笑，手指指西边和北边，“别叫她们挑出不是就好……去吧！”
