There is a big problem with my harem [Qing Chuan]

As soon as the court was over, the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty surrounded Suo'etu and others to the brim—say!Did you get wind of it earlier? ?

Suo'etu was wronged, and Suo'etu burst into tears. Suo'etu grabbed Mingzhu and asked him to beg to see the emperor together to persuade him!

It didn't take long for this matter to naturally spread into the harem, and many concubines who were paying their respects to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager in the Palace of Compassion and Ning were only about to explode on the spot! !

What does it mean?The emperor has only been back to the palace for a few days, and he has to go to the front again. If something goes wrong... the palace will be gloomy!

The corners of the concubines' eyes were red, and they looked at the empress dowager and empress wanting to speak, and only hoped that they could persuade Kangxi well!

The Empress Dowager believed that Kangxi wanted to avenge Yinfu, and tried hard to persuade him for half an hour, but her mouth was dry and tongue-tied. Kangxi still went in his left ear and out of his right ear, looking like a dead pig who is not afraid of boiling water!

She covered her head, only feeling dizzy, almost out of breath for a while, and she looked like she was about to fall down as soon as she covered her heart!

"Imperial Grandmother!" Kangxi was in a hurry now, the Empress Dowager is also getting old now, these days she is exhausted and tossing about, what if she gets angry...

He and the queen carefully supported the empress dowager back to the bedroom and leaned on the bed.Looking at the few strands of white hair on the sideburns of the Empress Dowager, who was holding her heart and gasping for breath, Kangxi couldn't help worrying, so he called Doctor Xu.

Doctor Xu is now a big celebrity in the Imperial Hospital.As soon as Liang Jiugong came to look for him, others couldn't help being jealous, but imperial doctor Xu not only cured the fifth elder brother Yinfu who was dying soon, but also treated many intestinal ulcer patients, and his reputation rose.

There used to be several imperial physicians who were comparable to him in the Imperial Hospital, but now they are far less favored and trusted than him. Many people are still scolding him for chasing western medicine, and secretly learning it in private.

Doctor Xu took the empress dowager's pulse carefully. The empress dowager is very old, and the 73-year-old is already a rare age. The pulse is weak and weak, and the kidney energy is insufficient... He sighed slightly in his heart.

"Your Majesty, the Empress Dowager's health is not bad. It's just that the Empress Dowager is old and weak, and can't stand the stimulation. She has not recovered from her haggard spirit a few days ago. If..."

Having said that, Doctor Xu tightly shut his mouth.

The Empress Dowager was overjoyed, and quickly cast an appreciative look at Doctor Xu.

Kangxi's heart trembled, his heart tightened silently, and there was a trace of panic on his face.

Seeing this, the queen quickly followed up and said: "Your Majesty, there is no need for you to go to the front line in person for this mere Galdan, wouldn't it just let them cheer up and compare themselves with our entire Qing Dynasty? "

This also makes sense.

Kangxi inevitably hesitated.

But the emperor's words are golden words, how can they be changed?Just as he was hesitating again and again, looking at the empress dowager's haggard and pale face, he fell silent for a moment.

The empress dowager is getting old...

"Let me think about it." Kangxi finally spoke.

The Empress Dowager is ill.

Maybe it was because of the incident in the Mulan paddock before, or maybe she was too old, but after Kangxi said that she wanted to personally conquer Galdan, she suddenly became extremely sick and had to stay in bed.

Earlier, Kangxi thought it was a trick played by the empress dowager and the imperial doctor to persuade him to stay in the palace.It's just that with the passage of time, the Empress Dowager's body became thinner visible to the naked eye, and her spirit also collapsed. The clothes that fit last month suddenly became empty.

Kangxi couldn't help worrying and nervous about this sudden serious illness, and ordered the imperial physicians to report his illness in a timely manner every day. Unfortunately, the empress dowager's health did not show any signs of improvement until the army was ready to go.

The personal conquest of Galdan could only be put aside under such a major event, Kangxi was very annoyed and personally sent Prince Yu to the gate of the city, and watched the group go to the battlefield.

This time Prince Yu brought not ordinary cavalry, but fully armed and equipped personnel.The behind-the-scenes personnel who sold the guns were still under investigation. Kangxi was unwilling to let Prince Yu be injured by the gunfire. After repeatedly telling Prince Yu to be careful all the way, he sent Nalan Mingzhu, who was a bachelor at the time, to take charge of the backup.

All of a sudden, the war situation between Russia and the Junggar Khanate was rushed from the front line to Kangxi's imperial court, and the whole court was busy.

What's even more frustrating is that the Empress Dowager's illness seemed a bit menacing!

In less than a month, the Empress Dowager became emaciated and out of shape, with high cheekbones, and her skin lost its former luster, leaving only a layer of skin covering the bones.Kangxi palace is busy, and he has to serve the empress dowager, and he is getting more and more haggard day by day.

"Long Live Lord, I can't go on like this." The queen watched Kangxi leave early in the morning, pressed her temples on her forehead, and nagged to Mammy Cao who was supporting her.

"My lord, my slaves think so too." Madam Cao responded, "Why don't my lords invite all concubines, concubines and masters to serve you as well?"

Mammy Cao secretly raised her eyes to look at the queen, the queen frowned thinking, her pretty face was bloodless, even with thick powder, it couldn't hide the sickness underneath.

"... Send someone to Yuqing Palace to spread the message, and invite him to Jingren Palace after the prince's class is over—" The queen thought about it, and decided to discuss it with the prince first.

Before she finished speaking, she covered her mouth with the handkerchief and coughed heavily, seeing the blood stains on the handkerchief as usual.

"...Yes. I will order someone to do it!" Madam Cao's heart sank, but her throat was straightened, unable to utter a word, and it took a long time to forcefully reply.

After discussing in the evening, the queen issued a decree early the next morning, requiring the concubines to serve the empress dowager every day according to the schedule, and the prince and his brothers went to serve the empress dowager after class in the evening.

When the Empress Dowager's health improved slightly and she was able to stand up and talk again, it was almost the time of Chinese New Year again.

It seemed that these depressing months swept away the bad luck, and the next good news came one after another: first, Prince Yu sent back a report from the front line, and the number of the Junggar Khanate was less than expected. Under the intense firepower of the army he led, he retreated steadily.

The war against Russia was also quite smooth, and good news was sent back frequently. Shi Wenbing even reported that Russia had a plan to negotiate and asked Kangxi to send someone to support it.

Suo'etu was very interested in this matter. After all, Nalan Mingzhu had made a lot of contributions in the Northwest battlefield, and he obviously had no intention of falling behind!

However, no matter how bad Kangxi's previous life was, he would never forget that Suo'etu actually created the "Nerchinsk Treaty" under such a good situation, so he was naturally unwilling to send him out.

Blindly appointing people from the Nalan Mingzhu faction is obviously not good for the balance of the court, so Kangxi's eyes fell on Li Guangdi, the head of the Imperial Academy who walked similarly to Suo'etu.

Just as he was discussing various matters with Li Guangdi in Dongnuange, a young eunuch walked into the room along the corner and whispered a few words next to Liang Jiugong.

"What's the matter?" Kangxi stopped talking, took a sip of tea and looked at the little eunuch.

"Your Majesty! Second Elder Brother, please see me!" Liang Jiugong hurriedly replied.

"Yinhu? What is he doing here when he's not in the Imperial College?" Kangxi was a little strange, but nodded indifferently, "Let him in."

After Yinhu came in, greeted the courtiers present after paying his respects, he couldn't wait to look at Kangxi eagerly and said: "Huang Ama! My ministers have something to ask for."

"Oh?" Kangxi didn't agree, but asked back with a smile, "Is there anything Yinhu wants to ask me for?"

"I heard that Huang Ama is going to send envoys to negotiate with Russia, and I also want to go with you." Yinhu's eyes were shining, and he clenched his fists and said loudly.

"Nonsense!" Kangxi refused without hesitation, and looked at Yinhu with a serious face, "Master Li is going here for business, not for fun, and besides, it may take several years to go on the way, what about your marriage?" ?”

In 25 years, Yinhu was only a 17-year-old child, and it was a late marriage in the Qing Dynasty. At the very least, Kangxi had to match him with a Fujin, and then build a mansion in the capital to prepare for marriage.

"I'm not interested in female sex!" Yinhu said decisively without even thinking about it, "Huang Ama, the sages have said it all. The tree that hugs each other is born at the end of the hair; the platform with nine stories rises from the tired soil; Okay, it starts with a single step. If you don’t start to do everything, how will you know if your son will know it, dare you!”

"Besides..." Yinhu puffed his face, "You became the emperor at the age of nine and took charge of the world's major affairs, and your son is now 16 years old! As the saying goes, father Xiao is a good son, and my son wants to be like you. !"

Kangxi smiled helplessly, and lowered his voice to comfort him: "Huang Ama is already very happy that Yinhu has such kindness! But this common saying also says to start a family and start a business. After two years to give Huang Ama a grandson, Yinhu will go wherever he loves. Where is it?"

Yinhu was anxious, but Li Guangdi on the other side said calmly: "Your majesty, the second elder brother is now 16 years old, and he can be the master of the house in an ordinary family. It is not difficult to continue to treat him like a child." yes."

"Huang Ama, if you don't accumulate steps, you can't reach thousands of miles; if you don't accumulate small streams, you can't form rivers and seas. A horse can't take ten steps in one leap; ten horses can drive ten steps, and the merits are inseparable. If you persevere, the rotten wood will never break. If you persevere, you can carve gold and stone." Yinhu hurriedly followed, "I will listen to the advice of Mr. Li and other adults along the way, and will definitely not make trouble!"

I'm not afraid of you making trouble...

Kangxi had a headache. Looking at Li Guangdi's appearance, he was afraid that he had colluded with Yinhu in private - this must be Suo'etu's trick!

Yinhu quarreled and quarreled, but Kangxi ignored him, and after a long time he couldn't resist him, so he sighed and flickered: "I still have business, go back and discuss it with your empress before I give you an answer?"

At this point, Yinhu reluctantly closed his mouth, but his eyes rolled around, obviously not giving up on this idea.

Kangxi heaved a sigh of relief when Yinhu withdrew, thinking about how to make the queen fool Yinhu, while continuing to discuss with Li Guangdi about the bottom line and specific requirements of the negotiation.

But soon, he was surprised by a piece of news sent back from Taiwan.

"Prince An Yue Le, seriously injured!"

"What—?" Kangxi raised his head, sat up abruptly, and stared at the sweaty guard with icy eyes.

Prince An Yuele and Prince Kang Jieshu were the first batch to enter Taiwan Island, how could they be seriously injured at this moment?Could it be that the fleet of Westerners reappeared again?

"what is the reason?"

"Your Majesty, this is a secret letter from Prince Kang!"

The guard held up a confidential letter with both hands, and Liang Jiugong hurriedly took it with both hands and presented it to Kangxi.Kangxi unfolded, and his face changed after only reading a few sentences!

A Spanish fleet attacked, and Prince An Yue Le was hit in the abdomen by a gun, and he was in danger!What made Prince Kang even more angry was that the first artillery seized was exactly the same as the navy of the Qing Dynasty!

From materials to craftsmanship to details, the soldiers of the artillery battalion under Prince Kang can be sure: These guns aimed at the Qing Dynasty Navy must have been produced by the Qing Dynasty itself!

It's like the one that assassinated myself... It turned out to be made by the Qing Dynasty!

That is to say, there are only two possibilities for the production and sale of these guns. One is that the two groups of people are the same group of people, and the other possibility is that the other party has a wide range of sales channels and sells them everywhere!

No matter which one is unbearable!Perhaps this result shocked Kangxi too much, but he was not angry now, and his whole person seemed extremely calm.

Now that the matter has been discovered, anger is useless.

Prince An Yue Le was seriously injured, Kangxi immediately sent people back to the capital, and dispatched an imperial physician to Taiwan Island to diagnose and treat Prince An.

Then Cao Yin was urgently ordered to enter the palace.

The matter of the Mulan paddock has only been revealed so far, and the personnel who failed their duties have not been investigated and dealt with, but now even the same guns have appeared on the sea!

Hearing the words, Cao Yin's expression also changed suddenly: "Your Majesty, the slaves have verified the number of guns in each battalion, and all of them can be consistent with the number registered in the book. Even due to the small number of recent battles, most of them □□The cannons are all brand new, and have never been removed from the camp except for practice! All the generals of the camp are innocent.”

Those who neglected their duties were only a small number of officials who failed to arrange and store according to the regulations, and checked regularly, but none of them were involved in the smuggling and selling of guns in the camp!

The results of Cao Yin's investigation obviously surprised Kangxi. He immediately asked all the secret guards in the capital to include the Eight Banners who had recently been in contact with the Yi people into the investigation list. , but without exception, the number of all artillery pieces is normal!

So, where did the first artillery used by the Spaniards come from?

I haven't found a reason yet, but a bad news spread to the capital first!

Prince Ann is gone!
