Chapter 47 Forty-seventh back to the peak of fire in the western borders

Li Wei killed Jia Shifang, seeing everyone was so frightened that he was dazed and stupefied, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow is the fifteenth day of the eighth lunar month, I will give you a lottery today! If there is a wrong, there is a debtor, so it is natural for Jia Shifang to avenge his wrong." Look for me, Li Wei. The Eastern opera and the Western opera are the methods that Wu Ye and I painstakingly worked out. Once he dies, you must not perform it again, and the law of the country does not allow it. Wu Niang prepares horses for me and Wu Ye, and we are here I want to go into the garden and submit my order." Hong Zhou said with a smile, "I didn't expect this bull-nosed head to be so uncut, and I thought he would even rehearse the Western secret drama with pictures! General Dongmei, Wu Niang, you are all frightened!" Yue Zhongqi Only then did they realize that this was a method carefully designed by the two of them to kill Jia Shifang, and he was unintentionally pulled in as a trick.He came back to his senses and said: "This method of killing people is new, but it costs too much money." As they spoke, the three of them went downstairs and meandered together, but they saw that the guests in the front building were still yelling and drinking, and the bartender Xiao Er was serving food. While serving wine and passing through, cars and sedan chairs are still passing by in the outer market, and the noise is endless, making you feel as if you are waking up from a dream.

The three of them rode out of Xuanwu Gate, Yue Zhongqi rode his horse hastily because he was afraid that there would be an order passed to the post, or that some friends would come to pay respects.According to Li Wei's intention, he should enter Changchun Garden with Hongzhou.But Hong Zhou said: "I prepared Jia Shifang's rebirth in the water and land dojo in the mansion. He is a real man of Taoism. You have to guard against him. Go and pay the decree yourself." Enter the garden alone and meet Yongzheng at Danningju.For some reason, Li Wei's originally extremely excited heart suddenly became a little depressed, and he was a little absent-minded when he entered the garden and met a few acquaintances and greeted them.He walked leisurely and stood in front of the stone steps of Danningju, and glanced at the side palaces on both sides that were being decorated by Dan'er.Just as he was about to report, the little eunuch Qin Meimei raised the curtain and said, "Master's name is Jin!" Li Wei regained his composure and walked into the hall with a few steps, but seeing Yongzheng talking to Sun Jiagan and Zhu Shi, he hurriedly kowtowed .

"You don't look very well, you look frightened." Yongzheng turned his face to look at Li Wei, and said, "Sit next to Sun Yungong! Gao Wuyong rewarded Li Wei with my bowl of ginseng soup. I used a A bowl of milk will do." Gao Wuyong hurriedly agreed to go. Zhu Shi continued the topic just now and said: "Henan is located in the Central Plains. In fact, there are not many military affairs to be done. The governor's office was set up at the beginning because Tian Wenjing's achievements should be promoted to governor, and Henan can't do without it, so he has both governor and governor. Since there is a vacancy in Tian Wenjing, it seems unnecessary to set up the governor’s office. Now Wang Shijun is the acting governor of Anhui, and he has been promoted to the governor of Henan, so it’s better to abolish the governor’s office, which saves a lot of trouble.” Knowing that it was to arrange Tian Wenjing's posthumous official duties, I deeply felt that what Zhu Shi said was reasonable.But Yongzheng said: "Wang Shijun dredged the Huaihe River in Anhui, cleaned up irrigation and transportation, and he did an excellent job. He deserved to be promoted to governor. When Wang Shijun died for Tian Wenjing, he just withdrew the yamen. On the contrary, the owner of this yamen was set up by Tian Wenjing. Yue Zhongqi’s army in the west is gone, and Henan is a place for food transportation, which is also considered military affairs, so let’s keep this governor’s office for now.” Sun Jiagan said: “Wang Shijun has a nickname in Anhui folk called ‘Wang Yiguang’, and Hetian Wenjing’s ‘Yiguang’ ' Homophony, the same mistake. I beg the Lord to pay attention, please ask him to emulate the strengths of literary mirrors and abandon the shortcomings of literary mirrors."

"Tian Wenjing's energy is low in his later years, and there are many shortcomings in government affairs." Yongzheng said in a calm tone, as if he was chewing something slowly, "His eagerness for success is obvious. How many times have I reprimanded him! If a person has this idea of ​​serving the king, even if he is sincere, the sky will not allow it. There have been disasters in Henan in recent years, which is a warning from the heavens. You will understand when you read the decree I gave him. Well, he is used to reporting good news and praises, and he dares not report when he has worries. It seems that God always refuses to let people have no problems at all. How easy is it to be a "perfect person"? I don't know what Tian Wenjing is short of. First of all, he is really sincere to me, and he is dedicated to everything. Second, he is also sick and exhausted, and I can't bear it. It is also my wish that he die with his full name." Said, Seeing Hongli coming in, he only nodded to signal him to sit in front of his case, then turned to Li Wei and said, "The grain and salt boats transported by water have been intercepted several times in the territory of Shandong and Anhui. Have you passed the notes on to you?"

After Li Wei finished drinking a bowl of ginseng soup, his energy improved a lot. He hurriedly apologized and said with a smile: "The Lizhi Court has already transferred to the servant. I only had a cursory look, but I haven't looked at it carefully. I have arranged for people to investigate along the canal. The servant has already killed it." After leaving Jia Shifang, I will go out of Beijing in the next few days, and return to Nanjing to take care of government affairs and concentrate on handling water transportation, so don't worry, master." "Jia Shifang has already dealt with it?" Hongli, who was sitting by the side listening to and reading the memorial, asked in disbelief. "When?" Yongzheng also asked, "Where is Hongzhou?" Zhu Shi and Sun Jiagan couldn't help but glanced at each other. They had just seen that they were still admonishing Yongzheng, "Alchemists, Taoists, and others, like Jia Shifang, are actually demons. They should be expelled from the palace to clear the inner garden."Yongzheng just laughed but didn't speak, suddenly Jia Shifang's head fell to the ground?This is too amazing, too incredible!

Li Wei hurriedly left his seat and leaned back to reply, saying: "I went back to the mansion with my prince, and went to set up a reincarnation dojo for Jia Shifang. Speaking of fourth master, the servant just cut off his head, and came here without stopping." Because he picked up the important situation on the upper floor of Qingyun Hall just now, he said with a smile: "I know this method is dirty and dirty. But I tried it a few times as a joke. This thief is not afraid of drowning, fire, or cutting. , but it can disappear for no reason... It is really a goblin! There is no other way, so I have to use the three bad ways... Master Zhu and Master Sun will definitely laugh at me. I am a beggar, and I can only use adults to laugh when I play beggars .”

"It's the right way to treat a person with his own way," Sun Jiagan said with a smile, "It's not shameful at all to fight poison with poison and follow the subtle way." Zhu Shi raised his face and thought for a while, and said, "I don't Laughing at you. The main purpose is to eliminate troubles! This method was used by Liu Guoxuan in Taiwan. He also had a toutuo who knew some sorcery. He was arrogant and lawless in Zheng Chenggong's army. Liu Guoxuan held a banquet and danced, and killed him with a sword He. I thought that Liu Guoxuan, the famous minister of the court, Xiong Dongyuan, although Liu Guoxuan did not know who to choose, was decisive and reasonable in his handling of affairs. Li Wei did this for the monarch of the country, so it is naturally more open and aboveboard."

Li Wei was most afraid of being criticized and attacked if the errand was completed. Seeing that Zhu Shi and Sun Jiagan said so, he couldn't help beaming with joy.Yongzheng was also very relieved, looked at his watch, and said with a smile: "I use Jia Shifang's yellow crowns to relieve the flow, but I just occasionally preach to them and talk about Zen for entertainment in my spare time. I have been feeling ill for the past two years. As long as the doctor can use the medicine , never easily spread the name Jia Shifang. Jia Shifang massaged me several times and chanted mantras. He presided over and governed the heavens and the earth. I secretly respect God and fear fate, and serve doctors in front of me, how did I come to this point? Alas... let’s not talk about him. Tomorrow, August 15th, you are my buttocks, and I will give you a separate feast. It's getting late, Hongli can accompany Ama."

"Yes." Hongli hurriedly stood up and said with a bow, ordered Gao Wuyong to prepare a feast, sorted out the files on the case, picked out a copy and presented it to Yongzheng, and said with a smile: "This is the list of this year's autumn judgment, which was sent by the Ministry of Punishment. The following sticky note is from Zhu Gang, the governor of Yunnan, requesting the execution of Yang Mingshi. There is also an attachment, saying that Yang Mingshi invited soldiers and people in Yunnan to besiege the Yamen of the Supervision Office to plead for his order. The emperor will look at it first. Going to decide Yang Mingshi. Because of these new records, please ask the emperor to judge." Yongzheng took it and read it, and said: "Zhu Gang has already ordered to act as the governor of Yunnan and Guizhou. He is anxious to get a post! Yang Mingshi has already been imprisoned Imprisonment, how can you "invite scholars and people"? If you "invite knots" on weekdays, doesn't it just prove that Yang Mingshi is an upright official? Yang Mingshi must not be killed, and his case needs to be looked at again and re-examined."

Zhu Shi and Sun Jiagan had already stood up, but when the matter was discussed, Zhu Shi took a step forward and said: "The old minister is willing to go to Dali to review Yang Mingshi!" Sun Jiagan said: "I don't believe that Yang Mingshi will be corrupted at all." matter." Li Wei said with a smile: "I don't believe it either. The slave was involved in the impeachment of Yang Ming. At that time, he thought it was reasonable and well-founded, but he kept murmuring in his heart that he was afraid that he would be wronged. The slave also thought it was reasonable to send another imperial envoy to review the review."

"Go and eat." Yongzheng waved his hand, "It's not clear just by talking about it. I have my own opinion." Everyone backed out, and the main hall of Tanning Ju Jiuying immediately seemed empty. Yongzheng glanced at the futon where Jia Shifang was usually meditating before he healed himself, and suddenly felt an inexplicable terror, palpitations, and a layer of goose bumps on his body. , hurriedly ordered Qin Meimei: "Throw that in the backyard and burn it, and see what Yindi is doing now, and call me over to talk to me." Qin Meimei left for a while, and she saw Qiao Yindi bringing two maids.Qiao Yindi is a newly-appointed concubine, wearing a two-tiered crown of oriental pearls on her head, and the seventeen pearls on her tassels are sparkling and sparkling.She is also wearing a stone blue and gold green court gown, painted with Versicolor versicolor and auspicious grass on the color, the whole body is brand new, and the pearls shake and jingle when she walks a step.Yongzheng said with a smile: "With such a dress, combing your hair up, no one will be able to tell that you are a Han. The Xibian Palace has already been built, and it is now being decorated in Danzhu. It will be late, let's go out for a walk, Take a look at your house by the way, okay? I killed that Jia Shifang today, and I feel a little restless, so I want to evacuate." "Ah! Jia Shifang is dead?" Qiao Yindi opened her mouth wide in astonishment, and said after a long time, "No wonder Qin Meimei just went to burn that futon!" Yongzheng laughed and said, "Kill him because he was guilty. What's so surprising? After the Mid-Autumn Festival , I still want to execute hundreds of death row prisoners. Punishment is not enough to promote goodness. This is the constitution of Confucius. Let's go, don't think about it. Jia Shifang, a monk, came to serve me. Take this opportunity to take control of me—he wants me to be good, and if he wants me to be sick—isn’t such a person scary in front of you?” Yongzheng said something, Qiao Yindi recited a Buddha, and said: “I’m not afraid, I’m just thinking about it. This life is unpredictable... When I saw him the day before yesterday, he was still talking and laughing, saying that my mother and I were about to meet, and in a few days, he had already obeyed the law..." While talking, he followed Yongzheng out. At this time, the sun had already set, and the dark red sunset was like a piece of red iron that was gradually cooling down, becoming gray and dark, and a few places where the clouds were thin were as pale as the maw of a dead fish.Wave after wave of west wind made the bamboo trees all over the garden sway and tremble restlessly, like countless dancing black shadows.The cool wind blows against the face from time to time, carrying a bone-piercing coolness, which makes people shiver.Yongzheng and Yindi looked around the west side hall in the dark. The hall has not been decorated yet, and the unused paste and color buckets of the workers are placed in front of the steps in a disorderly manner.The scaffolding creaked and creaked in the wind, which was uncomfortable to hear.Yongzheng turned his head subconsciously, seeing Zhang Wuge and De Lentai's two old guards following him not far away, he felt a little more at ease.While walking along the flower path, he asked: "Who else is in your family?" "Mother, father, and a younger brother." "Have you heard from them since you entered Beijing?" "Since I got involved in the case of Nuomin, I was separated from my family—the family was afraid, maybe the magistrate flattered Nuomin and bullied people, so I couldn't stay here—and then I got into trouble again and again, just wanted to... die Forget it, I didn’t care about it. Last time someone from the Ministry of Internal Affairs was on a business trip to Shanxi, I asked them to inquire, but the person hasn’t come back... Although Jia Shifang is not good, he is still a god, I hope he is right... Amitabha! My mother is also the same He is forty years old, and after a few years, he might not even recognize him when he meets him!" As he spoke, he wiped away his tears. Yongzheng was cut by the wind so that his body trembled for a while. He held Yindi in his arms, walked back, and comforted him in a low voice: "If he can't find out, I will write a secret order to the governor of Shanxi tomorrow and ask him to investigate! You every year There are also two thousand taels of silver, and five or six hundred taels of silver can buy a good house in this capital. You can’t return to peace under the imperial court system, but your mother can come in to see you every month as usual...Ah yo—this What is it?!" "What?" Yindi was fascinated by what she heard, when she suddenly saw that Yongzheng seemed to have stumbled, she leaned over to touch something with her hands, and hurriedly came to her.But Yongzheng was so frightened that he took a step down, Yindi's hand had already touched the black mass, and he felt that it was cold and sticky, something thick and long like a bucket, still wriggling.She called out "God!"As soon as the body went limp, it became paralyzed... Yong Zheng was so startled that his eyes widened, at this time the twilight in the garden was as dark as a twilight, the breeze blew the trees and the grass shook the ghostly shadows, nothing was refreshing, he saw the thing wriggling into the grass, he hurried over to help Yindi , asked in a trembling voice: "How are you...?" Yindi threw herself into Yongzheng's arms as soon as she turned around, and said, "It's a snake! It's cold and sticky..." Yongzheng suddenly looked at the thick hair and said: " I... I felt it was a thorn, I pricked it hard, and it bleeds!" While the two were terrified, a piercing owl screamed in the forest suddenly: "Xue Li Li... Ge Ge Ge Ge..." Like evil It was Jia Shifang's usual triumphant laughter.Yongzheng tightly protected Yindi and shouted loudly: "Guards, guards!" "The slave is here!" Brother Zhang Wu and De Lengtai were at the side of the stone corridor by the forest, they had already heard the movement here, and they agreed as they ran, "The servant is here..." Yongzheng himself was so weak that he barely supported Yindi, Trying to calm down the flustered heart, he said: "Call the two eunuchs to help Yindi, and you light torches to search this piece of grass!" After leaving Yindi, he and Yongzheng left the grove over there.Nade Lengtai and Brother Zhang Wu also didn't light the torches, seeing that the grass was not very big, they just dragged and kicked to search for it.After about half a pack of cigarettes, Fifth Brother shouted loudly: "Yes! Beast, where are you going?" Yongzheng was standing under the lamp in front of the eaves of Danning's house at the moment, when he heard this sound, he was startled again.Hearing two guards rushing over, Fifth Brother Zhang wrapped a ball in his clothes, and when he shook it off and looked down, it was a porcupine!Yongzheng said: "No, how could there be a porcupine here? Besides, Yindi said it was cold, wet, and slippery to the touch... What I touched was a thorn..." "Look, master." The fifth brother laughed, "You touched this guy's thorns, and Yindi touched its nose... This place is next to the Fangfei Park. There is also a Fangsheng Garden to the south of the Old Summer Palace. Hedgehogs, Porcupines, deer, and roe deer often come here to look for food!" Only then did Yongzheng heave a sigh of relief, and felt that his underwear was drenched with sweat. He forced a smile and said, "Let's let him go, I was shocked!" Qiao Yindi also came out of the hall to have a look, clasped his hands together and said: "Amitabha Scary to death..." She quickly regained her composure. Seeing the lanterns in the east leading Zhu Shi, Sun Jiagan, and Li Wei, accompanied by Hongli, she was supposed to be here to thank her after the feast, and she turned back and went back to her bed. place.The crowd followed Yongzheng into the hall, which was a routine ritual to respond to the story, but Yongzheng stopped again and said, "Hongli, get out, there are so many things waiting for you tomorrow! Some of you—call Fang Bao to come here too." , stay with me for a while, I am restless today, I want to hear what you guys have to say..." This is an unreasonable reason, Hongli seemed to hesitate for a moment, swallowed what he wanted to say, and backed out after a long time.Li Wei's eyes were sharp, seeing Yongzheng's trance-like eyes were drunk, his eyes were slightly flushed, but his forehead and chin were dark, he shook his hair from time to time and kept quiet, because he laughed and said: "Master, I see you seem to be frightened... dare you Did Ke bump into something in the garden just now?" "Well, it's nothing." Yongzheng actually had nothing to say about these few people left behind, but he just didn't want to let them go, because he briefly talked about what happened just now, and said: "Although it was a false alarm, I still can't let it go. Be quick, if there are ghosts and gods if your mind is not clean... I suspect that Jia Shifang's ghost is behind..." While talking, Fang Bao also came in, followed by Hong Zhou, Fang Bao smiled and said, "Fifth brother Zhang told me all about it. The lord is at ease, and it might be better to settle down for a while. That Jia Shifang was punished by the gods for threatening the lord with sorcery. The crime is unforgivable. The emperor just punished him on behalf of the heavens. Ten thousand deaths of this kind of person are not enough to worry about. There is nothing wrong with it!" Zhu Shi said: "I think Jia is just a liar who can juggle. There are no ghosts and gods in the world. It's all because the emperor believes in Buddhism. Your majesty, close your eyes and think about who in the world really Have you ever seen ghosts, gods, gods, gods, gods, Buddhas and Bodhisattvas? If you don’t believe in him, he won’t be able to harm you!” Sun Jiagan said: “Which demon dares to come close to the help of the holy son of heaven? What, a slave is a slave!" Hong Zhou believed in everything, he couldn't hear a single word of these "gentleman's words", so he hurriedly got up and called Gao Wuyong, told him to find "The Story of the Jade Box" and "The Legend of the Green Sac" to mess things up, and told Xiao Su Pull the eunuch to the garden to burn incense and frame it and send it off.Li Wei was in a different style, smiling and said to Yongzheng, "I'll borrow the emperor's vermilion pen to use." Seeing that Yongzheng nodded, he asked for a piece of yellow mounting paper, dipped in cinnabar to write on.When Hong Zhou leaned over to look at it, he wrote crookedly on it: Jia Shifang: Fuck you fucking Taoist priest!It was the beggar Li Wei who killed you out of love, and it was Li Wei who cut off your bird's head!The fifth master has already sent (to) you a water green (land) dojo, why don’t you hurry up and reincarnate into a mixed piece of human skin?If you want to make noise, you Beng (don't) find our master, come to my house and let's toss!Otherwise, I will tell Master Longhushan to strike you with five lightnings, and Sister Wan (kalpa) will not be able to come back to life!Li Weiqie reported. Li Wei muttered in his mouth and recited it seriously for a while, then put the frame on a candle and burned it, everyone wanted to laugh but didn't dare.Yongzheng was much more peaceful than before, sitting with his knees crossed, breathing evenly, and his complexion improved.Everyone in the audience was uneasy, Yongzheng sighed: "I'm better, don't have too many people here, leave one to wait at the door, and the rest go back to rest." When he said this, several courtiers rushed to stay and wait.Hong Zhou said: "According to me, Master Zhu is an old man, and he went back home to rest. Li Wei was on duty in the middle of the night, Sun Jiagan was on duty in the middle of the night, and Sun Jiagan was on duty in the middle of the night. I was young..." As he was speaking, Liu Shaoyi, the doctor of the imperial hospital, hurried in with two imperial doctors himself. Just as he was about to check the pulse, Yongzheng said, "Who is so vicious and scorpion-like and called you here? I'm not sick, so you get out! Just do as Hong Zhou said." "Come with me." The more Zhu Shi looked at Yongzheng, the more sick he looked, and he waved to several doctors who were at a loss, "Leave Li Wei here, and everyone else goes to the East Study." Although Sun Jiagan felt that Zhang Zhi was going too far, But it seems true that Yongzheng was ill, so he went to the small study in the east with everyone to discuss the solution. "I've already sent someone to the Ministry of War to invite fourth master, and the fifth master will take care of the affairs here." Fang Bao's beard was upturned, and his two small eyes were as black and bright as pepper beans. "The first thing is not to make it public. The fewer people who know about the emperor's disease, the better. If you don't get sick tonight, it will probably pass. Tomorrow, August 15th, as usual, there will be a feast for all officials. Why don't you show the scenery?" In the past, everyone think about it, and I will ask the fourth master to confirm later." "Okay, let me say first," Hong Zhou said, "I see that there is no one here who believes in God. But I believe it, because no one knows about Jia Shifang. Do you know that there is Zuo Ci in it? Jia Shifang is today’s Zuo Ci. Why did you kill him, because he is Zuo Ci? Why am I especially guarding against him this time, because he is Zuo Ci! The fourth brother will be here soon , he also doesn’t believe in gods and ghosts. So I’ll tell you right now that I sent people to Jiangxi to invite Master Lou Shiyuan of Longhu Mountain a month ago, and I reckoned that he would be in Beijing soon. I invited him here because Subdue this Jia Shifang, now it's here, I want to set up a place in this garden to subdue him. Let me say first, don't stop me." When he said this, several people frowned, Yongzheng was a little startled when he only touched a porcupine, such a big event was extravagant and made a fuss, and the courtiers outside looked at the smog, what is going on with the Gongming court?Just as he was in a daze, Hongli had already entered, and everyone hurriedly got up to greet him. "I just met Yue Zhongqi." Hongli said in a serious tone, "20,000 people from Zhungeer attacked the Northern Route Army, and the two armies of Keshetu had already fought. Yue Zhongqi had to rush back to the camp overnight. Everyone said, do you want to play?" Several people couldn't help looking at each other when they heard this: the emperor is ill here, and the Taoist priests are being invited to subdue the demons there, and suddenly there is a huge military and state priority, which is as incongruous as a donkey's lips.Hong Zhou asked with a sullen face, "Where is Te Lei? Let this bastard come out and explain!" "This is also one thing," Hong Li seemed to be very anxious, frowning and said: "It is not up to us to decide whether to kill or let go." .” "How to do this," Zhu Shi said, "Please let the fourth master and the fifth master come to Danningju to have a look. If the master can manage the affairs, he still wants to ask for an order. If he can't manage the affairs, he will call Zhang Tingyu, Ertai, and the sixteen princes." The seventeenth prince comes in, and the fourth master presides over the decision. Wait until the Long Live Dragon is better." Right now, this is the best way, Hongli got up and waved to Hongzhou.The two left the study room together, talking while walking west.Hongli asked with a smile, "What did you say just now? You seem to be afraid that I will know!" Hongzhou said about setting up an altar, and said, "You are a gentleman who studies Taoism. I'm afraid you won't agree." While walking, Li murmured silently, and said: "My good brother, this is filial piety. He went to the doctor in a hurry, and he said that Taoism is not morality. Jia Shifang has been with Ama for many years. He has some Taoism, which is true. I’m also a bit disturbed! How can I stop you? Just keep it secret, don’t make a scene that the whole world knows, and the censors are going to nag again.” After Li Wei had come to welcome him, Hongli asked: "How is the emperor doing?" "The emperor has been unable to sleep, sitting and lying down for a while, restless." Li Wei said hastily, "Listen, I'm rinsing my mouth again, I want to see you, this is the best time." He raised the curtain first After entering the hall, he came out immediately and said in a low voice, "Your lord, please come in." After Hongli and Hongzhou entered the hall to salute, they couldn't help being surprised when they looked up at Yongzheng. Just after leaving for a while, Yongzheng seemed to be much older, his hair was a little disheveled, and there was a little redness on the protruding cheekbones.Only then did Hongli know that Yongzheng's illness was worse than what everyone said, so he knelt down and persuaded: "Ama, I heard that you didn't ask the imperial doctor to take a pulse, but my son didn't think so. Uneasy. It's a common ailment and a few doses will get better." "I am not sick... I was entangled by Jia Shifang... When I closed my eyes, he was in front of me, smiling straight at me..." Yongzheng leaned halfway on the big pillow, looked at the dim candlelight, and opened his eyes brightly. With eyes closed, he said weakly: "If you are sick, you will naturally be called an imperial doctor, but it is really not something they can cure. If it can't be cured, it will be publicized... Just now Jia——Jia Shifang came and said that what I met was Nian Geng. Yao... Didn't Nian Gengyao have a nickname called 'Nian Porcupine'? Alas... a weak body, like a withered grass, can't stand any wind..." The two brothers felt their hairs on the verge of breaking out when they heard the words that seemed to be talking in a dream but seemed true.Hongli was about to comfort him, but Yongzheng asked, "The military situation in the west has changed, right? Hongli." Hongli quickly kowtowed and said, "It's...Huang Ama, you...?" "Jia Shifang... just told me..." Yongzheng trembled in shock and anxiety, a candle exploded with a "bang", and Hong Zhou shrank back in fright.As if the bloody corpse was standing in front of him, he moved his legs uneasily, and moved a little closer to Hongli, but he heard Yongzheng smile slightly and said: "He...he has already stepped back. Come on, talk about seriousness Military affairs, I feel better." Hongli suppressed his extreme uneasiness, and explained the situation of the enemy's changes in the western Keshetu area in an orderly manner, and then stated the opinions of the people just now, leaning over and waiting for Yongzheng's order. "I'm too haggard like this now, and I don't want to see my subjects. Your two brothers sent Yue Zhongqi off on my behalf, and ordered him to return to the camp to deal with military affairs..." Yongzheng didn't feel his heart palpitations at this time, but he felt his heart beating violently. Lao Gao, with his veins swollen, smiled helplessly, and said, "If there is an emergency situation, I can't take care of it. Hongli can make decisions by himself, but he has to discuss with everyone and brainstorm. Although you are smart, you have never experienced it. military……" "Yes, I understand." Hongli gritted his teeth and said, "Nate Lei is here to deceive the emperor. The Zhungeer department has played this trick time and time again. The court cannot show weakness. I think it should be punished as an example. later." Yongzheng took a deep breath after hearing this, and said: "Why didn't I know that Te Lei should be killed? But my hands are soft, and I don't want to kill this person who threw himself into the trap. Everyone is their master...Te Lei is a man! Back then, he had besieged the holy ancestor in Khobdo, and he did not shy away from it, and told me all about it...Old Galdan committed suicide, and he was a personal soldier, right by his side... This is a man who has survived hundreds of battles, I can't bear to do this." Hong Zhou said: "The emperor rewarded him with so many things, at least he should take them back!" "Everyone is spared, what are you talking about? Don't be so petty. Hongli passed on these words to him and told him to go back to fight." Yongzheng seemed very lazy, but his judgment was still clear, "You all step back. Tomorrow, August 15th, I won’t be able to meet my courtiers. I don’t want them to make noise in the garden. Your sixteenth uncle, seventeenth uncle, your brother, and all the ministers of the Military Aircraft Department will give a banquet in Qianqing Palace on my behalf. Kowtow to my throne and finish the job. Don't make it public, anyway, I have had good times and bad times in the past few years, and people are used to it." "Yes!" The two brothers kowtowed deeply, and slowly retreated out of Danningju.As they withdrew, the clock was striking eleven, the hour of the day.Yongzheng, who was extremely tired, did not dare to close his eyes. He listened to the sound of the wind outside, which was as subtle as someone yelling in the distance. After a while, there was the sound of rustling poplar leaves, and it seemed like countless people were applauding and laughing. The cold wind and cold moon in the quiet night of the garden looked particularly gloomy.Gao Wuyong and several senior eunuchs sat outside the grille, picked the candle wick a few times, but they always felt that it was not bright enough, and the more frightened they felt.The lower curtain of the dark blue candle moved slightly, and there was a dead silence, as if some monster was hiding, and it seemed to pounce at any moment. Listening to the movement outside, I felt trembling and fearful... Suddenly, there was a slight rustling sound on the window paper, as if someone had sprinkled a handful of soil on it, and then the tinkling of iron horses under the eaves, as if it was not lively enough, a few pigeons started up, fluttering and flying away with whistles Go, there is still a giggling sound in the middle.Yongzheng stood up vigorously, stared straight at Yizhanghong who hung his clothes, and said viciously: "It's me! How about you? Monarchs and ministers have no prison (referring to the fact that monarchs and ministers do not judge right from wrong as equals)-don't say that you deserve what you deserve, even if you kill the wrong one, you can't pay for it!" Several eunuchs were almost paralyzed by him.The hall was full of silence, the lights were green and dark, and the tables seemed to be squirming, and black shadows like a few clouds of domineering fog were moving silently.Yongzheng simply closed his eyes, and immediately saw Jia Shifang's pale face, covered with a layer of chalk powder, staring at him and laughing; when he smiled, his eyes were bleeding!Yongzheng couldn't hold it any longer, and shouted: "Where are the guards? Beat him out!" "Your servant is here to protect you!" Sun Jiagan stepped into the hall with a few steps, bowed to Yongzheng, and said in a loud voice: "My minister Sun Jiagan is here, rest in peace, the Lord, which evil spirit dares to come near?!" "Oh, Jiagan!" Yongzheng's mind suddenly cleared up, he dragged Sun Jiagan and said, "Sit in front of me—I feel at ease when you are here..." Sun Jiagan looked at the panicked Yongzheng, his heart ached, and he was already in tears. , holding back and said: "The minister is sitting next to the Long Live Lord. Don't worry, just rest assured and have a good sleep. Jia Shifang asked a monster, how can he make trouble?!" Yongzheng nodded and closed his eyes. , muttered in his mouth: "With you here, I feel at ease... You are a courtier I have known since the first year, and I will leave it to my son to envoy. "..." He finally managed to catch his breath and fell into a deep sleep. Sun Jiagan took off his official boots and walked lightly around the palace, nothing strange happened, even the eunuchs calmed down.
