Chapter 192: Talking about the military monarch and the ministers
The corners of Chang Ning's lips twitched slightly when he heard the words Yongshou Palace, and he immediately took the package in his hand, and said with a smile: "The imperial brother should not envy the younger brother, the younger brother bets, the other two packages must be cloaks, and the imperial grandmother changed her mind when she saw that the two sisters-in-law had prepared them for the imperial brother."

The emperor only smiled slightly when he heard this, opened the turmeric baggage, took out a letter and examined it, and saw that the seal was covered with Rong Yue's private seal, and the corners of his lips couldn't help but hook lightly, and opened a brocade box on the table, there were already several letters in it, the emperor put the letter carefully, and handed the two packages to Li Dequan.
A trace of loss flashed in Chang Ning's eyes, his gaze fell on the brocade box, he was slightly distracted, and was awakened by the emperor's words: "Fifth brother." ”
Chang Ning came back to his senses and said: "The younger brother has been away from the palace for a few months, and I am not very relieved, I don't know if I can bother the emperor's envoy to carry a letter to the palace for the younger brother." ”
The emperor also knew about him and Wu Xirou, so he wanted to admonish him, but he stopped thinking about it, turned his head and instructed Li Dequan: "You go and give an order, and ask Xiao Guzi to go to Prince Gong before leaving." ”
Li Dequan retreated, and the emperor picked up the desk fold and handed it to Chang Ning, saying, "This is the Shi Lang secret fold sent yesterday, you can take a look." ”
Chang Ning made a salute, took it with both hands, and read it again, it was originally the Admiral Shi Lang of the Navy Division, at the turn of spring and summer, the northeast wind was more, and during the summer solstice, he took the south wind to Penghu and captured Taiwan in October. However, it also emphatically mentions that 'Yao Qisheng, the governor of Fujian, was born in the north, although he has the talent of warp and latitude, in the midst of the huge waves of the ocean, he is afraid that he is not the director, and it is recommended that the governor stay in Xiamen and control ...... in the middle'
When the emperor saw that he had read it, he handed over a copy of the recital, and Chang Ning took it to see it, but it was the recital of Yao Qisheng, the governor of Fujian, who repeatedly emphasized that 'although the minister was born in the north, he went to sea for a few days now, safe and sound, and did not vomit or vomit,' and reiterated that it was his ambition to recover Taiwan, and that he would rather die in battle at sea than go back to Xiamen to steal his life'.
When the emperor saw that he had finished reading it, he said: "Taiwan's affairs must not be taken lightly, and when you come back from there, I would like to hear what you mean." ”
Speaking of national affairs, Chang Ning recovered his spirits, put down some of his children's affections, and said loudly: "The younger brother thinks that Governor Yao and Governor Shi are both virtuous and talented ministers, and when the younger brother was there, there was a late one night, a batch of timber for the preparation of the expedition to Taiwan went wrong, and Governor Yao tried his best to send people to Huguang overnight to buy supplies. And Shi Lang is quite good at training, before and after he goes, the sailors are not the same in terms of momentum and strength. ”
The emperor's expression was calm, and he said: "I also know that Yao Qisheng's performance is full of tenderness, since he became the governor, the placement of the officers and soldiers of Toucheng and the rebellion against the soldiers and civilians of Pengtai have been very effective, and it has also caused great fluctuations in Taiwan, but he always hopes to rely on cutting off food and wages, banning the sea and plotting rebellion, and waiting for the Zheng clan to surrender automatically. Shi Lang advocated that the emphasis should be on suppression, and he also had a set of skills in military training, so I repeatedly ordered the two to work together, but both of them were stubborn and refused to compromise a little, and it was not a good thing for the governor and admiral to have such a different opinion. ”
Chang Ning looked quite admiring, hugged his fists and said: "What the imperial brother said is very true, Taiwan's Liu Guoxuan is familiar with the art of war, and is familiar with the nature of the sea, and he will defend Penghu like an iron bucket. ”
The emperor took off his robe and sat down on the tiger skin chair, raised his hand to press it in the air, asked Chang Ning to sit down, and said: "I know all this, I only ask, what do you mean by which of these two people." ”
Chang Ning's expression was awe-inspiring, and he said: "Brother Shi thinks that Shi Lang has a sentence that is extremely right, if there is no military force that makes the enemy fearful, it is impossible to try to appease the Zheng family through kind words. ”
The emperor thought about this, understood Chang Ning's position, picked up the Zihao pen and wrote down the number on a note, called Li Dequan in, and handed it to him along with the two letters: "Send someone to the military department, and hand it over to the ministers of the council to decide to play back." ”
Li Dequan didn't dare to be negligent, and hurriedly took it back.
I happened to meet the guard Wu Ge near the prelude: "Long live the Lord Qiqi, the general of Ningguta, Bahai, and the deputy capital Sabu Su are asking to see him outside the tent." ”
The Emperor laughed, "He came quickly, called him in." ”
Chang Ning said: "The imperial brother is just hunting, but do you want to take a break?" ”
The Emperor waved his hand and said, "No need. ”
The words fell, only to hear the sound of boots, and the two generals stepped into the tent with their front and back feet, saluting and greeting.
The emperor smiled and told the two of them to be even, and said to Ba Hai with a smile: "In order to quell the rebellion of the three feudatories, I had to transfer the soldiers stationed in Shengjing and Ningguta into the pass, and you were ordered to garrison Ningguta, and you were able to recruit the tribes of the Norman River and the Ussuri River to replenish the army to resist the Rakshasas, which is a great contribution, and it is precisely because of this that I feel a lot more at ease." ”
When Bahai heard this, he hurriedly lifted his robe and knelt down on one knee and said: "Chen Bahai, who has been blessed with holy grace for a long time, has never been able to repay it, how dare you not bow and do your best." ”
The emperor bowed slightly, stepped forward to help him up, and said, "If you come here, you will patrol the Songhua River with me, and then make plans on the day of returning to Luan." ”
Ba Haisheng's leopard-headed tiger eyes responded heartily, and then met Prince Gong, and then presented a map of mountains and rivers, and said: "The slave thinks that the emperor made a special trip to inspect the Songhua River, and he must want to know the situation of the northeast frontier, so he specially ordered someone to rush to make this map." ”
The emperor's eyes showed a look of joy, and he hurriedly stepped forward to take the map in his hand and browse it, and said with a smile: "You wait a while, and we'll talk about it later." Saying that, he instructed Li Dequan: "Go and pass on Suo Etu and Mingzhu." ”
Li Dequan was busy, and the emperor hung the map on the tent wall with his own hands.
After a while, he heard the sound of footsteps coming quickly, Suo Etu Mingzhu saluted, the emperor raised his hand and ordered the two of them to get up, and then instructed Ba Haidao: "You can talk about it." ”
Bahai replied: "Rakshasa borders on my Qing Dynasty," he said while standing in front of the map and pointing: "There are Dzungar tribes on the border, Zasaktu Khan's department, Tushetu Khan's territory, and the nomadic areas of Maoming'an and other departments, mainly inhabited by the Daur people and Jurchens in the Heilongjiang area, since the five years of Chongzhen in the previous dynasty, this place has been invaded by Rakshasas, burned, killed and looted, coerced the local people to wear shackles and chains, pay grain and fur, and now based on Nebuchu and Yaxa, it has been entrenched in Heilongjiang for many years, And in more than ten places from the mouth of the Erguna River to Yaksa, from Yaksa to the mouth of the Bulma River, etc., they built houses and scattered, and the local people cultivated all year round, and the income from mink hunting was paid to Tsarist Russia. ”
When Kangxi heard this, his face was full of displeasure, and his tone was calm, and he asked: "I have also heard of these things, when the emperor was in power, he repeatedly ordered a crusade against the Rakshasas in my territory, but in the long run, it seems to be fruitless. (To be continued.) )
