Wei Xiaobao of Lu Ding Ji

On this day, peaches are red and plums are falling, willows are freshly green; the blue sky is like washing, and the clear water is like clear. It is really a good weather, but Kangxi is not happy at all in the camp outside Hengzhou City, and sent six hundred miles last night. An urgent military report was sent six hundred miles away. It turned out that the Empress Dowager was sitting in the court, and Mingzhu and the others found out that there was a group of rebels in Guizhou Province. was held in it.

Kangxi's heart tightened, and when he looked behind, there were several battle reports about the situation in the capital.It turned out that Wu Sangui had already contacted Peter I, the ruler of the Raksha Kingdom in the north. On the extreme northern border of the Qing Empire, a musketeer team was ready to move. But last night, Taiwan suddenly rose up and organized ships to march towards the capital.

Right now, the military is in a hurry.The news that the Guizhou rebels might capture Xiaobao as a hostage did not allow Kangxi to delay for a moment.That night, he ordered his generals to concentrate the army and land, and made nervous preparations.At dawn the next day, the battle to attack Huiyan Peak started again.

Wu Sangui's defenders on Huiyan Peak were still firing arrows, but the Qing army was not in a hurry to advance and defended in an orderly manner.Suddenly, there seemed to be a slight commotion among the soldiers lined up neatly.When Kangxi sat on the dragon chair and supervised the battle, before he understood what it was, he saw Wu Sangui's rebel army set up a thick and long pole, like a pillar supporting the sky, and the pole was supported by five soldiers. The strong soldiers hugged and held it together.

When Kangxi saw what was on it clearly, the thick long pole was like a huge sharp sword, stabbing Kangxi's eyes. Kangxi, who had always been calm, contorted his face for an instant, and couldn't help but gasped. He was so cold that he could hardly control his disobedient voice—the person hanging on it was actually dripping with blood and dying, the person he was thinking of!He held it in his hand for fear of falling, and held it in his mouth for fear of melting into a lucky general!

"..." Seeing this situation, Kangxi suddenly stood up, his eyes were about to burst, he stood there like five thunderbolts, he didn't know what to think, his usually calm eyes flickered with a crazy and piercing light.

I saw the bloody man's face was covered with blood, and his hair was tangled together so that he couldn't see his face clearly, but a hundred miles away, Kangxi could still see the glaring white jade on the man's neck amidst the blood all over his body. The figure I miss day and night.That was undoubtedly his little treasure!

Kangxi stared at the white jade closely, and couldn't help but to lose his soul, he stepped forward three steps in a row.In an instant, all the strength of the young emperor seemed to be pulled away at once, and his legs and feet seemed to be about to kneel down in front of the soldiers. Li Dequan was beside him with quick eyes and hands, and hurriedly supported Kangxi's icy iron armor.Kangxi lowered his head, staggered, finally raised his head expressionlessly, looked straight at the bloody man in front of him, his eyebrows trembled slightly, and remained silent for a long time.

Kangxi felt as if a year had passed during the time of a cup of tea, his stiff body finally loosened, he shook a few times, and finally whispered: "Go... go... have a look..." He was trembling Pointing at the huge long pole in front of him, a hoarse and dry sound appeared from his throat, as if being polished on the gravel.

sound.

Just four words almost exhausted the energy of the young emperor's life.Suddenly, before the words were finished, Kangxi's dark pupils shrank suddenly: he seemed to see that the person hanging on the long pole moved slightly, and there was a small strand of puff at the penetrating collarbone chain on his chest. The blood slid from there and fell into the ground, Kangxi only felt that the blood-stained sound was almost as deafening as thunder...

At this time, Kangxi only felt dizzy for a while. The young emperor's expression was unpredictable, and suddenly without warning, he spurted out a mouthful of blood, coughed violently, and a trace of crystal slipped out of the corner of his eyes.

Li Dequan was startled, he quickly helped him into the tent, and called the military doctor to diagnose his pulse carefully.At this time, Kangxi waved his hands with great strength, opened those hands with a "snap", sat in the middle of the grand master's chair and said, "Siege the city!!"

"Siege..."

"Siege..."

The sergeants originally stopped attacking because of Wu Sangui's rebel's strange move. When Kangxi said this, the leading general was taken aback for a moment, and immediately raised his voice, and then batch after batch of sergeants spread out, shouting On the one hand, he rushed into the Hengzhou city full of hostility.

The originally calm and cold emperor suddenly burst into a strong killing intent when he heard the sound of agitation, and even the teacup beside him trembled unceasingly.Li Dequan understood clearly from the sidelines, he was extremely scared, he was afraid that the master would rush out of the camp and be in danger, so he hurriedly took a step closer.

"Long Live Lord!" Li Dequan quickly knelt down with a "plop", and said in a mournful voice, "Long Live Lord, don't get so angry, Lord Wei still relies on you to save me!"

At this moment, the young emperor suddenly raised his head coldly, his eyes were like thousands of years of ice, cold and sharp, shining brightly on Li Dequan. "Go, let me see if that person is Lord Wei."

"Whoo."

"Also, if Wu Sangui sends an envoy, let him come to see me!"

"Whoo."

At this moment, suddenly, the pillar seemed to be standing on the platform in the middle, and a monstrous flame suddenly ignited from the dry grass piled on the platform, and in an instant, the entire platform fell into a raging fire.

The traitors below sprayed oil upwards with a jig.The plateau wind is sweeping in, it is really a fire fighting against the wind, and the wind helps the fire.Seeing that the tongue of fire was about to lick the soles of Wei Xiaobao's feet.Kangxi was furious suddenly, he was as motionless as a mountain, but his palms were pinched dead white in the wide sleeves. "Li Dequan... I'm going to cut him into pieces!" His voice was hoarse, almost hoarse, and he looked extraordinarily vicious and vicious in the empty barracks.

Li Dequan trembled, and almost fell to his knees on the steps under the tent.

The reverse scale of the dragon, those who touch it will kill it!

At this moment, a man suddenly stood among the flames, like a god reborn from the ashes, and the voice came from afar. "If we want Wei Xiaobao to survive, within one hour, the Qing army must retreat for thirty miles..." Immediately afterwards, the rebels below shouted, spreading throughout the mountains and plains.Weng Longlong echoed this sentence over and over in the whole valley

words.

Immediately afterwards, there was a strange sound from the opposing camp.Kangxi's heart was shocked, and he saw the dark clouds covering the sky on the opposite city wall, and immediately shouted: "Qi Dun!"

His order was conveyed layer by layer, and the soldiers who attacked the city immediately put their shields in front of their bodies, and then a dense rain of arrows pierced through the air.Kangxi stood straight outside the tent, looking at the dark sword shadow, showing a fierce look.He was dressed in a yellow dragon-pattern robe, a red tassel crown, a white jade belt around his waist, a black gauze jacket, and a pair of soft boots woven with thick-soled gold thread.Standing in the dark rain of arrows, he saw his arms shake, and the rain of arrows fell one after another.The soldiers of the Qing army couldn't help but cheered when they saw this scene.

"Long live, long live... Long live, long live!!" Wan Ye moved like a broken bamboo.

At this moment, suddenly, the man in the city opened his ape arm, and put a big black-bone bow in his hand, and it was full of strings. With a sound of "嗖", the bowstring moved slightly, and it was too late and then quickly, the arrow feathers that were faster than the wind were approaching, and Kangxi could even see a faint blue light on the black arrowhead made of black iron.

Kangxi smiled and was about to shoot him down with a sigh of relief when Li Dequan suddenly rushed up and pulled Kangxi's body.This was pulled by Li Dequan, and Kangxi suddenly lost his balance and fell to the ground.In an instant, the arrow pierced through the air, and it seemed to still carry the murderous spirit of its master.Only then did Kangxi realize that there were two arrows after this arrow, and three arrows almost formed a line and shot at him in a hurry.Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Kangxi turned around on the spot, twisted and leaped, and retreated to the tent. The next moment he saw that he had been sitting on the bluestone steps just now and had been penetrated by the black bone arrow for more than three inches. "Two bangs split the feathers of the arrow in front and sank into the bluestone.

Wu Sangui didn't hide his clumsiness, this trick has been fully developed throughout his life, and it is his famous "Kua Fu Shooting the Sun".If it wasn't for Li Dequan's presence, Kangxi's heart trembled, he was afraid that he would be entrusted to die here.Take a look at it.The soldiers who were guarding both sides of the seats had already been killed and wounded countless times, and a large amount of bright red blood filled the ground.

"Retreat for thirty miles..." Kangxi stood in the shadows and looked at the battlefield, the billowing smoke, and the figures flickering in the smoke.Suddenly frenziedly sweeping everything on the desk to the ground. "Zhen, retreating for thirty miles is tantamount to handing over the entire southern part of Hunan Province to him. He has tortured my little treasure to this point, and he still wants to negotiate terms with me? Well, he, Wu Sangui, has such a wishful thinking ?!"

Li Dequan didn't dare to speak, and could only protect Kangxi silently.I saw that the rain of arrows just now had ended, as if the whereabouts of the people at the head of the city were mysterious, they disappeared without a trace.

As soon as Wu Sangui said this, people gathered at the gate of the city, and the fire was extinguished at once.The Qing army was also ordered to temporarily stop the attack.

Kangxi sneered and said, "Hmph, do you want to show me my flaws? Li Dequan, tell the hidden guards to sneak into Hengzhou City no matter what. I want Xiaobao to come back to me alive!" He didn't want to retreat for thirty miles, nor did he Lost Xiaobao.He is the emperor of the Qing Empire, and he refuses to be controlled by others no matter what!As he spoke, he looked at the distant figure outside the tent.

But I didn't expect that it would take years at a glance.

As time passed by, the pure gold pocket watch Tang Ruowang on the dragon case brought as a tribute from a distant Catholic country was ticking, like the footsteps of the god of death, stepping on Kangxi's heart.Kangxi watched helplessly as Wu Sangui's rebel army remained silent, and finally couldn't sit still. Several hours passed, and the dead soldiers he sent disappeared one after another.At this moment, Kangxi became more flustered and restless.He silently looked at the gray and white walls of Hengzhou City, which was close at hand, and wished he could tear Wu Sangui to pieces.

Suddenly three cannons shot past.The horn player raised the long horn high, and there was a sad cry of "woo woo", echoing from the empty peaks and mountains.Under the pale sunlight, a bright yellow dragon flag fluttered in the bitter cold wind.It is embroidered with thirteen characters: "All the emperor and Zhou are recruiting Marshal Wu", fluttering in the wind.The long pole was nowhere to be seen.Instead, there was a dark coffin on the city wall.

Now Wu Sangui's thousands of sergeants put on bright red uniforms, and they were almost bright red from a distance. They stood in a team on the wall, which made Kangxi panic.Their braids, which had been scattered a long time ago, were equally messy, cutting the sight of everyone in the Qing army below the city.

Suddenly, a person stepped sideways to Wu Sangui's side, and the soldiers on the top of the wall immediately separated from the two of them like a tide.Kangxi immediately discovered that this person was Wu Sangui's son-in-law Xia Guozhuo.Now that Wu Sangui proclaimed himself king, the first reward was to make Xia Guozhuo the Prime Minister of the country.I saw him striding up the stage with a solemn expression, and shouted to the executioner: "Rebel Wei Xiaobao, execute at three quarters in the noon!"

After saying that, the black-faced man came up with a knife in his hand, sat down slowly without saying a word, picked up some water, held a piece of white cloth in his hand, and slowly wiped the polished white blade wiped.A thin but familiar figure was pressed over.

Kangxi couldn't help but stand up abruptly when he saw a figure. He only felt that there was a vast expanse of whiteness in front of him, and all of this seemed unreal, and he felt dizzy for a while.

He moved his mouth, and finally said after a long while: "... Li Dequan!" The voice was hoarse and hoarse.

Li Dequan hurried over. "Hey!"

"Preach my will, attack the city!"

"...Hey." Li Dequan couldn't help but looked up at Kangxi in surprise, and found that Kangxi was also looking at him. The dark eyes of the young emperor who were usually active were now dark, mixed with a chilling and complicated look. .Kangxi was sad that Xiaobao would die because of his innocence, but also hated himself for being a useless person who couldn't keep the love in his heart. He was full of resentment, and his eyes almost burst into flames.Seeing Li Dequan, he trembled, swallowed the words that came to his lips, and quickly backed away.

Before Kangxi could do anything, then, suddenly there were three loud noises, and Xia Guozhuo's confident voice came from a distance: "It's [-]:[-] p.m.

... Execution! "As soon as he finished speaking, the black-faced man stood up suddenly, raised his knife and dropped it! A bloody human head rolled down on the blue-white stone brick floor, making several muffled sounds.

The sergeants below raised their swords and shouted in unison: "Long live the Emperor Zhou Dynasty, and a thousand years for the Generalissimo!"

Kangxi was stunned for a moment, and finally his eyes were darkened, his hands and feet were cold, he couldn't help but his legs went limp all of a sudden, and he took a few steps back.

"Your Majesty!" Several people who were waiting in the tent rushed over to help, but they didn't expect Kangxi to wave his hand and block everyone away.

He stepped back a few steps, and stopped until he was leaning against the pillar. A look of grief flashed across his fair face, but he immediately said expressionlessly: "We are at war. A lord and retreat? What are you doing in a daze, why don't you go to the front to supervise the battle?!"

"..."

"Don't hurry up?! I want to take Hengzhou as soon as possible!"

"Whoo!"

The tent suddenly became extremely clean, Kangxi slowly stepped back to the dragon case, suddenly his heart ached, and a mouthful of blood stained the square bricks under his feet red.He spit out the salty smell in his mouth, fell on the dragon chair and panted for a while, only felt that every time the heart beat in his chest, his limbs would feel a dull pain...

In early spring and March, it should have been the beginning of the green leaves spitting out their cores, and the time when the spring rain moistens things silently.When Kangxi woke up, he only felt the scenery outside the window, the rain sprinkled on the lotus pond, the ripples of sorrow, a scene of chilling.

Kangxi had spent five days and three nights in Hengzhou with his army, and finally took Hengzhou City in early March.Wu Sangui's original intention was to use Wei Xiaobao to hold Kangxi back so that he could go back to the city and use the reinforcements from Yuezhou Wang Fuchen to support him.Unexpectedly, it was beyond his expectation, and Wei Xiaobao's life did not retain the emperor's determination to regain Hengzhou.In addition, Kangxi has been beaten like chicken blood since that day, and Zhou Peigong, who has an extraordinary army, is in charge. In a few days, the mere [-] soldiers and horses can no longer carry it, so they have to turn around and fight back to Yuezhou. In one battle, he was extremely defeated.

Wei Xiaobao died, it seemed that he was completely dead.

He propped himself up, dazed in a daze.

His blessing was given to Wu Sangui by himself, in front of hundreds of thousands of troops, beheaded, and left dead in the wilderness.It's dead through.As he thought about it, an ugly smile appeared on the corners of his bloodless lips.His little treasure was, really, dead.He slowly closed his eyes and said to himself over and over again.

He once ridiculously reported a glimmer of hope, hoping that it was just a trick by Wu Sangui, a delaying tactic, and only the ghost Wu Sangui found would die.But... the head that rolled down the city gate was picked up by his subordinates and presented to him...

He put him by his side.Those eyes that he had missed for thousands of times were now foggy and dull, looking at him helplessly.As if he was accusing himself of being cruel...

That day, when the little soldier presented it tremblingly, Qiangu Yidi didn't show the slightest expression on his face. He casually placed the head of his former lover on the side of the table, and said with a normal expression, "Zhou Peigong."

"The slave is here."

"I order you to be the commander-in-chief of the three armies, and take down Hengzhou City within five days."

"Whoo."

It seemed that Wei Xiaobao's death could not shake the Emperor's heartstrings at all.

Sure enough, after five days and three nights, Kangxi stepped into Hengzhou City with his whole body bright yellow and his face sinking like water.

In just a few days, he looked like an old man on the verge of death, haggard, dark-faced, suddenly thin and out of shape, but his spirit was very good.

As soon as he entered Hengzhou City, Kangxi got on his horse and galloped all the way to the roof above the city gate.Seeing this, Zhou Peigong and others hurriedly followed here with the guards.Looking up from a distance under the city gate, I saw that on the Liutai, the long pole raised from the tree was still vaguely soaked in black blood, and there were traces of smoke in the lower half.

Kangxi paused, and slowly walked over the long pole.Came to the top of the city.On the top of the city, a banner that was drenched by rain was trembling in the cold wind. Half of the thirteen characters embroidered on it, "All the emperors and horses are recruiting Marshal Wu" have been removed, so it looks desolate and decadent.Kangxi stood quietly under the flag, looking back at the city.

Under the stage are the Qing army soldiers led by Zhou Peigong. The team that has just been reorganized is wearing the armor that has just been brought from the inner treasury, all fresh and neat.They were lined up neatly in teams, and they entered in an orderly manner from under the city gate.On both sides of the platform and the gate, there are dozens of school comforts from the Admiral's Mansion of the Nine Gates to guard.One by one, with their hands on their waist knives, without squinting their eyes, they stood energetically, showing the majesty of the Qing Dynasty.

Kangxi glanced around slowly, seeing the solemn appearance of the army, he laughed slowly, and said in a low voice: "Very well, Zhou Peigong's helper has really become a general. Go, burn that broken flag to me. " Naturally speaking, it was Xiong Cilu who followed him up.

Xiong Cilu next to him was about to answer, but Suo'etu pinched him back.Xiong Cilu was startled, and looked up at Suo'etu, only to see Suo'etu pale and shook his head at him, and quickly pulled him to stand in the corner.Xiong Cilu looked at Kangxi suspiciously, and then looked at Suo'etu. He was a little hesitant. The consequences of disobedience and disrespect would be very serious... But Suo'etu has always been shrewd. To stop myself now, could it be that the emperor doesn't seem to want to really burn this flag?When he was in a dilemma, he suddenly realized that Kangxi's order did not name people, so he quickly pretended that the matter had nothing to do with him and huddled in the corner.

After waiting for a while, Kangxi didn't see anyone moving, but he didn't mind. He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the flag, and kicked the flagpole to the ground. A series of uncultivated swear words, just like a street shrew, cursing and cursing, suddenly, tears fell like rain.

Xiong Cilu suddenly understood what Suo'etu meant, and he couldn't help looking back at Suo'etu.I saw that this smooth and tall man was looking at Kangxi ecstatically, with a hint of desolation in his eyes.He suddenly realized that the relationship between Lord Wei and these two people might not only be like a monarch and minister, but also an alliance?Faintly, he suddenly felt a little envious of that head lying peacefully in the emperor's sedan chair.

The drizzle of rain had already wet Kangxi's yellow jacket, and his black braids were also dripping, but Kangxi didn't care at all.He sat for a while, then got up suddenly, glanced at the few people behind him coldly, and said in a cold voice that was almost mixed with ice, "Pass my password, the whole army will be in Hengzhou City for three days of training and march out During the period, those who kill good people will be executed! Those who rape the housewives will be executed! Those who fail to arrive at the due date will be executed! Those who fail to rescue will be executed! Those who disobey orders and disobey them will be executed!

"Whoo."

After all, Kangxi's eyes darkened and he passed out.Before he passed out, Kangxi had a vague thought that his chest could be so painful...

He, as an emperor, cannot leave a weakness.

He, as a king, cannot abandon the city.

He, as a king, cannot be selfish.

He didn't even have time to say goodbye to him.He saved the whole situation, but why couldn't he save that tiny life?When he was eight years old, the emperor's grandmother had already told him that at that moment his whole life was firmly tied to this seat that symbolized the highest desire for power, and he could no longer escape.This country is his responsibility, and he understands that he has to sacrifice his own happiness in time to protect him.

However, his imperial grandmother forgot to tell him, why is it so painful?
