I became a group pet after dressing as nine elder brothers

The loud and clear voice of the guards echoed above the Qianqing Palace, and the entire Qianqing Palace fell into a momentary silence, followed by Kangxi's ecstatic cry: "Prince Yu and Zhibeile? They captured Galdan alive?"

Capture Galdan alive?

Prince Yinreng and the officials at the scene focused all their attention on the guards, until the guards answered again, they could no longer control the joy in their hearts, and cheers were endless.

Kangxi was surprised and delighted.

Several years of persistence finally paid off. He raised his hands and pressed down, signaling the courtiers to calm down before signaling the guards to speak carefully.

The guard forcibly suppressed the joy in his heart, and he tried his best to convey the news from the northwest battlefield to the emperor in the calmest voice.

He can calm everyone present, but he can't calm down!

This time, not only Galdan was captured alive, but also several envoys and officers and soldiers from the Raksha Kingdom were also captured and surrendered.

Kai Yinbu, Minister of the Ministry of War, gloated and said: "In the past years, we wrote frequently, and the Raksha State always said that he had never supported Galdan, claiming that all the weapons owned by Galdan were robbed from their arsenal. Yes, I bah!"

On the one hand, the Raksha Kingdom repeated guerrilla attacks around Nerchinsk, and on the other hand, it contacted Galdan to support its weapons and food. This behavior has long been hated by many generals in the Ministry of War.

This time, Kai Yinbu, Minister of the Ministry of War, had no intention of letting them go. He said bluntly and fearlessly: "Your Majesty, according to what I see, these Raksha officials should be escorted to Nerchinsk and beheaded in public. It is the head that intimidates and deters the Rakshasa country."

Dai Zi, who is also Minister of the Ministry of War, shook his head.

He came out to stop Kai Yinbu from continuing to speak, and said another way with a smile on his face: "Reporting to the emperor, the evidence of this person that Yichen saw is in front of him, and the Raksha Kingdom cannot refute it? The loss of the Northwest battlefield over the years Shouldn't they be made to bear some burden?"

Dai Zi's proposal made Kangxi's eyes shine.

This time, capturing the envoys of the Raksha Kingdom alive was like slapping the face of the Raksha Kingdom several times, completely exposing their past lies to the sun.

Their repeated actions in the past ten years have already disgusted Kangxi, and killed these envoys?To put it bluntly, this has a fart!

Ask for compensation?

Facing Dai Zi's proposal, Wen Bao, the chief minister of Shanxi, stood up and said, "Why did Dai Shangshu say that? Our dynasty is a huge country, how can anyone ask for compensation from those small countries in the west?"

Not to mention that many officials showed a touch of approval on their faces.Throughout the ages, how has the Central Plains demanded compensation from other countries?Dai Zi was also from a family of literati, so it's possible that he joined the Ministry of War and even had the same brains as them...

Dai Zi didn't reply yet.

Yinzhen at the side rolled his eyes: "Is this the first time I've heard that the Raksha Kingdom is a small country in the western frontier? Is it possible that Mr. Wenbao hasn't looked at the globe carefully yet?"

Although the land area of ​​the Raksha Kingdom has not yet surpassed the Qing Dynasty, it is indeed vast. It is ridiculous to compare the Raksha Kingdom to a small country in the western border.

The surrounding courtiers snickered.

Especially when Wen Bao, the chief minister of Shanxi, showed a trace of confusion on his face, the courtiers couldn't help but look at him with disdain.

Since the lifting of the sea ban, even the most pedantic officials have come into contact with foreign new things, and the globe is naturally an indispensable part, which has already been sold to the people in batches.

To put it bluntly, maybe a three-year-old child was caught on the streets of the capital. Everyone knows that the territory of the Raksha Kingdom is no smaller than that of the Qing Dynasty!

In the heart of Shanxi chief envoy Wen Bao, only the Qing Dynasty is the center of the world. He has never touched a globe, and he even feels a little repulsed.

Wen Bao was speechless.

Before he could figure out how to refute, Yinzhen added maliciously: "Then you will pay for the military expenses spent in these years? My elder brother heard that Mr. Wen Bao abused the people in Shanxi and imposed taxes. Maybe he will pay it back. There really is a lot of money to fill the void."

Shanxi's chief executive made Wen Bao's complexion drastically changed.

Aware of the astonished and suspicious gazes of his colleagues around him, he fell to the ground with his knees limp, and wept bitterly at Kangxi: "Your Majesty! You are wronged! This slave is dedicated to the people in Shanxi, loyal and loyal, and has never done what the ninth elder brother did. All the things you said! I hope that the emperor will see clearly and return the slave's innocence!"

There was silence in the hall.

In recent years, the emperor's punishment of corrupt officials has more or less included Brother Nine.

Even though Brother Nine is in charge of the rice research work now, he seldom goes to various ministries to handle affairs as in the past, and appears much more low-key and mature.

Would such a nine elder brother casually slander people?

The officials present couldn't believe it, and even the few officials who had previously agreed with Wen Bao shrank back silently, turning their suspicious eyes to Wen Bao in unison.

Wen Bao, the governor of Shanxi Province, was dripping with cold sweat.

Yinzhen stared at him, with a very calm voice: "Come on, stop pretending."

This sentence seemed to sound the death knell on Wen Bao's head, he still wanted to struggle, but it's a pity that Yinzhen didn't intend to give him this chance at all.

Yinzhen said with a smile: "Ben elder brother heard that you claim to be a good official, and all the people sing praises, and the people have come to the court to erect a statue for you?"

Shanxi Buzheng made Wen Bao's lips squirm.

Hilda, Minister of the Ministry of Officials, still had some memories of this. He looked at Wen Bao and asked a question: "I have seen the Wanmin Umbrella, the writing on it is different, and the people who escorted the Wanmin Umbrella seem to be..."

Shanxi's chief executive revived Wen Bao's spirit.

There was a trace of flush on his blood-faded face, as if he had grasped the last straw, but in less than three breaths, someone broke his illusion immediately.

This time it was Cheng Baylor Yinzhi who stood up.

He said calmly, "The Ten Thousand Peoples Umbrella? The people who presented it? Lord Hilda doesn't know anything. This is nothing more than a very simple fraud."

"Fake!?"

"After the scope of railway operation gradually expanded, it brought not only goods from all over the world, but also rumors and news from all over the world."

Yin Zhi looked at Wen Bao, the chief envoy of Shanxi who was full of panic, with a smile that was not a smile: "For this reason, the Beijing Daily has specially dispatched personnel to station there, tracing the source of the rumors and digging out many upright officials—"

It was Yinzhen who answered the call.

His voice was soft, but in the ears of Wen Bao, the chief minister of Shanxi, he was as terrifying as an evil ghost: "Of course, we also found a lot of people who took bribes and extorted scientific factions. What do you think, Mr. Wen Bao?"

The Shanxi chief made Wen Bao limp on the ground.

The officials present couldn't help but gasped, with a hint of caution and fear in their brows and eyes.

Times change really fast.

In the past, when the emperor was far away from the mountains, who wasn't the local tyrant?If it can be connected, it is common for the imperial court to fail to find out for more than ten years.

And now?Little things may spread to the ears of "reporters" along with the tongues of the people, and it is also common to publish them in newspapers.

For example, Shanxi chief envoy Wen Bao.

Yinzhen glanced at him sympathetically: "If the evidence is insufficient, do you think Elder Brother Ben will say it? You... will be on the front page of the Beijing Daily tomorrow!"

If an upright official and a bright official are published in the newspaper, it is a good thing for Guangzong Yaozu and a household name, but what if it is published as a corrupt official?Shanxi chief envoy Wen Bao seemed to have thought of the scene where he was thrown and beaten by rotten eggs and rotten cabbage leaves. He rolled his eyes and passed out with a kick of his feet.

Seeing Yinzhen reveal what he originally planned to announce at tomorrow's court meeting in a few words, Kangxi was speechless for a while.

What can I do with Yinzhen?

He only waved his hand, and several palace servants immediately stepped forward, grabbed Wen Bao, the chief envoy of Shanxi, and dragged him down.

Wen Bao, a young bird, ended up like this.

The courtiers who still had opinions did not dare to speak anymore, and they all enthusiastically agreed with the suggestion of Dai Zi, Minister of the Ministry of War, vying to express that they should issue a document to severely condemn the Raksha Kingdom, and strive to bite off a piece of meat from the other party.

Kangxi is still very satisfied with these statements.

Of course, there are still many problems, such as whether these Raksha countries are willing to spend money for these captives.

Prince Yinfeng stood up.

He said confidently, "Ama Khan, I have an idea."

"tell me the story?"

"Since the emperor's uncle and eldest brother have caught Galdan and those from the Raksha Kingdom, should we simply invite the Raksha country envoys to Beijing and show them a military exercise?"

Wang Xi, a scholar of the Palace of Preserving Harmony, was very interested in the suggestion made by the crown prince: "His Royal Highness intends to display our advanced weapons and troops first, and unilaterally demonstrate our strength, so as to deter the Raksha country into submitting?"

Prince Yinreng nodded reservedly.

Yinzhen was amused by this scene, and he chuckled.

The second brother of the prince has learned badly!

Yinzhen came out with a smile: "My son seconded the proposal!"

There was also a gloating smile on the faces of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty, and they responded in unison: "Slave/lower official!"

Kangxi laughed out loud.

He was very energetic, and he slapped the armrest heavily: "Okay! But it's not enough!"

There was a hint of doubt on everyone's face.

Prince Yinreng answered: "Khan Ama means to invite envoys from Spain, the Netherlands, England, North Korea and Japan to participate?"

"The one who knows me belongs to the prince!"

Kangxi laughed: "This matter will be handed over to the Crown Prince and Minister of War Dai Zi."

Ever since the weapons infrastructure got better and better, Kangxi had long wanted to show off.It's just that it's hard to show off. You don't have to pull an envoy to take him around the barracks, right?

This military exercise just happened to scratch the soles of his feet, which made him tremble, as if he had seen the amazed and shocked expressions of many envoys.

Prince Yinreng and Minister of War Dai Zi came out one after the other, full of excitement and excitement, intending to give them a good look.

Kangxi smiled and waved his hands: "Send a message and order Prince Yu and Zhibei Le to return to Beijing immediately, and order the Ministry of Rites to prepare for the reception. I will personally reward you!"

Hesheli Changhai: ...

He could hardly control his expression, and there were bursts of boredom and helplessness in his heart.

The prince of the slave!

Aren't you trying to catch up with the airs and promote Zhibaile's reputation?Hesheli Changhai was in a hurry, but he never dared to show any expression in front of the emperor.

Of course, he didn't realize that his actions had already been noticed by Nalan Mingzhu.He couldn't help sneering, the difference between Hesheli Changhai and Suo'etu is not one point or two, and it's no wonder that Sony handed over the power of Hesheli's family to Suo'etu back then.

Hesheli Changhai was still worried.

The emperor greeted him personally and it was a military exercise. How far will Zhibeilor's reputation be raised after this?Wu Youzhi Baylor, the development of the elder brother's power made Hesheli Changhai anxious.

He felt that he had to discuss it with the prince, or at least make the prince more vigilant.
