Chapter 951: Reward, Snowy Night
Qianlong, who was proud of Liu Yu, couldn't help frowning when he saw that the ministers didn't react, slapped the table vigorously, and asked in a deep voice, "What?" A group of old ministers still have a junior to worry about? Keshan's strategy is extremely feasible, do you have any better solutions? ”
was reprimanded by the emperor to bring him back to his senses, Ah Gui blinked his eyes, and hurriedly waved his hand to explain, "No, no, no, the emperor, you misunderstood!" How can the minions have a problem with the prince? It's the saying that the prince of the world 'fights because of food' is too subtle, I can't figure it out for a while, and I'm just stunned. As for the strategy proposed by the prince, it is far-sighted, there is no omission, and it is very clever, and we have no opinion. ”
This "because of food in war" sent them to lead the troops was used intentionally or unintentionally, but it was the first time I heard of it and thought about it for a while. The other generals echoed after Ah Gui finished speaking, and looked at Liu Yu with a little more respect and caution in their burning eyes, and the contempt they had when they first came was gone.
This prince is not only proficient in arithmetic, good at financial management, but also has a very disciplined strategy and a self-contained system, such a ghostly character, rare to see in a hundred years, coupled with today's emperor's attitude towards his pet maintenance in every way, he will be the humerus minister of the Qing Dynasty in the future, and it is necessary to befriend him. Alas, Prince Duan's dead ghost is really a good fate......
With Liu Yu's current situation, he naturally wouldn't rush to the battlefield in person, but with his preparation and strategy, Ah Gui and the others really didn't have much effort to defeat Jinchuan, which had always been a big trouble before. Under the hint of Emperor Qianlong, under the deliberate promotion of a group of generals, Liu Yu's merits were greatly improved, and he also had a big share of the reward after the war!
In addition to gold and silver treasures, Liu Yu's name has also changed now, although it will be a few months before he will be filial piety. But under the holy decree, he is now Prince Duan.
In the battle of Jinchuan, Prince Duan, who was highly favored in the Qianlong Dynasty, issued his first cry, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as a blockbuster. In addition to lamenting that Prince Duan had made good bamboo shoots, everyone also had green eyes in their eyes on the newly promoted Prince Heshuo. Prince Duan is about to be filial, and next year is the year of the draft, and our daughter is being elected......
This has an official title, and the emperor should also be the little prince Zhang Luo's mansion, Fujin or something. But to everyone's disappointment, Qianlong didn't mean to mention these things. He didn't mention it, but someone was worried. It's not. Wei Qingtai, the head of the Internal Affairs Office, went to the fold and asked for the renovation of the palace for Prince Duan, and also listed several addresses.
The motivation to work is really high! Liu Yu followed Qianlong's side, and naturally saw such a conscientious and good manager. Look, in order to have a royal palace for him as soon as possible. How many good houses have been set up by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, they are all finely decorated that can be moved in with a little rest. Seemingly. He lives in the palace because it is in the way of some people's eyes. Can't wait for him to stand on his own
In the palace, in addition to the queen mother and the emperor, Liu Yu also has a good relationship with the step-queen of Kunning Palace. Under his mediation, the relationship between Empress Jiji and Qianlong is not as bad as in Qiong Yao's novel. At least the phoenix seal is still in the hands of the queen, and in addition to the two specific days of the first and fifteenth days of the new year, the queen can still have four or five days of bedding every month.
For this condition. There are many dissatisfied people, but there is only one person who has the ability and mood to think about it - Concubine Lingwei. Why do you say that there is only her? The two concubines in the palace, Concubine Chun, completely fell out of favor and fell silent after the third son of the emperor, Yongzhang, was deprived of the right of inheritance; And after Concubine Jia desperately gave birth to the emperor's eleventh son that year. He fell ill, and he was left with no time to take care of his life.
For the rest, Concubine Shu had just died of her son and was immersed in grief; Concubine Yu has never been favored, and if she hadn't given birth to the son of the fifth elder brother, it would not have been her turn to ascend to the concubine position. Further down the concubine position, they are either too old to be favored, or they have been in the palace for a short time and have no strength. Concubine Ling is different, she not only has a position and background, but also love. What's more, she's in a hurry!
In the tenth year of Qianlong, when she climbed the dragon bed in the Changchun Palace, she was already nineteen years old. Now ten years have passed, and she is still childless at the age of 30, how can she get it. The emperor's ability is undoubted, there are concubines in the palace who are pregnant every year, but none of them have her share, and the imperial doctor said that she is fine. That said, she had too little time to be pampered!
It's just that this prince of Duan is still against her, and he always helps the queen to speak, so that the queen can give birth to children one after another. Concubine Ling feels that her personality is gentle and generous, and no matter how she looks at it, she is more liked by the younger generations than the queen. Yongqi's mother is still there, and she is no longer in her hands. Liu Yu is a person who doesn't eat oil and salt, no matter how many things he sends, there is only one word of thanks, and nothing changes on the side.
No, as soon as she heard the news that Liu Yu was crowned king, Concubine Ling was happy. It's not that she's happy for Liu Yu, but that she can finally drive this troublemaker out of the palace. As a prince, with his own mansion, can he still live in the palace every day? After waiting for two days, I didn't see any movement from the emperor, so let's be self-reliant. So, there is also her grandfather's twist and turn today.
It's a pity that Prince Duan has never been an empathetic and good young man, he has the virtue of being arrogant and domineering. Don't you want the master to get out of here, but the master won't leave. In the final analysis, there are still many rules in the palace, how can he be at ease on his own territory, he also planned to ask for a decree to go out of the palace to build a mansion. But some people come out like this, and the master won't leave!
"Your Majesty, do you dislike Keshan, and wish you could let Keshan leave your eyes early?" Liu Yu frowned, and his slender fingers poked at the fold in disgust, "Also, what kind of broken places are these, so far away from the Forbidden City." In the future, Keshan wants to say goodbye to you and the Queen Mother, and you have to go for a long time. You're just trying to get Keshan away, aren't you? ”
Qianlong heard that the dragon's heart was happy! Let's see, in the end, the reincarnation of the emperor Amad who cares for him very much, how close he is to me, and he is not even satisfied with the fact that his home is far away...... Qianlong smiled and narrowed his eyes, "What stupid things are you talking about!" If I dislike you, I can still make you so unruly. Don't pay attention to this, you haven't got married yet, and the matter of opening the mansion will be discussed after the wedding. ”
He didn't mention the stubble of building the palace, he just didn't want Liu Yu to leave the palace early, and he hadn't enjoyed enough of the father-son relationship that he had dreamed of since he was a teenager. Pinching the fold, Qianlong secretly scolded in his heart, and the internal affairs government was a little blind. Just put it aside. How old is Keshancai, he is less than nineteen years old, how can he leave the adult to live alone without the power of the clan to help the village, and it is not too late to talk about it after twenty. As for Wei Qingtai, he is old.
Before the end of the year, Qianlong issued an order to let Wei Qingtai pay tribute. Concubine Ling was so angry in the palace that she vomited blood, but she couldn't have a seizure. However, she soon stopped. After looking forward to it for more than ten years, Concubine Ling finally became pregnant. For this first child who has been looking forward to for many years. Concubine Ling attaches great importance to it, and she immediately keeps a low profile. Now, nothing is as important as this in her belly.
It snowed on this day, and the Imperial Garden in the snow had a unique charm. After Qianlong finished his political affairs, he took Liu Yu to enjoy the snow at night. The two of them were surrounded by Wu Shulai and Sa Fuding. I didn't follow anyone. Stepping on the moonlight, even a lantern is not used.
Unconsciously. A few people approached the queen mother's bedroom. Just as he was about to turn back, he heard a murmuring conversation in a corner of a rock. Hearing that the voice was a man and a woman, Qianlong's face was a little displeased. At such a late hour, a man and a woman alone, no matter what their identities should not have happened.
stopped Wu Shulai, who was about to speak, and Qianlong pulled Liu Yu to listen to the corner. Look at Qianlong's sneaky momentum. Liu Yu is a little ridiculous, this is the emperor also loves gossip.
"What a poem! Qing'er, I didn't expect that there would be a woman like you in this cold palace. From that poem. I heard another you, full of yearning for freedom, enthusiasm for life...... What would you say to describe you? Well...... Yes, you are like a spark under an iceberg, cold on the outside but passionate on the inside. The man's voice was gentle.
Qing'er laughed softly, her voice clear and refreshing, "Erkang, I didn't expect that there would be such a confidant as you in this palace. Tonight, it is so pleasant to be able to talk to you under such moonlight and starlight, accompanied by the snow covering the sky and earth. Over the years, although I have surrounded myself with many people, there has never been one who can understand me like you. ”
Erkang ...... Forkan? Qianlong and Liu Yu glanced at each other, and understood the identities of the two. However, Liu Yu found that Emperor Qianlong seemed to continue listening, and he had no intention of rushing out or avoiding it. What gossip this guy has!
Hearing that it was not a woman in the harem who cuckolded herself, Qianlong was still relieved. He, who is both a "father" and a "son", would not ruin his image very much if he let Ke Shanzhi explain that kind of embarrassing thing. Accustomed to Keshan looking at himself with the eyes of "worship", "satisfaction" and "approval", Qianlong felt that he could no longer accept that his image in Keshan's eyes was damaged, and all actions that ruined his image must be stifled.
The men and women on the rockery continued, and Liu Yu heard Faulkang smile heartily, and then said: "That's right, you are also my confidant, and you are also a beautiful and rare confidant." Although he couldn't see the faces of the two, Liu Yu was already able to describe the appearance of the two of them in his mind. Faulcon must have opened his nostrils and focused eyes, while Qing'er should have blushed and shy but pretended to be generous.
was reminded of the not-so-beautiful picture in his mind, and Liu Yu trembled uncontrollably. I don't know if the two of them have the habit of breaking the news. If he can hear some earth-shattering news, it will not be in vain for him to be diaphragm. did not disappoint Liu Yu, the atmosphere of the conversation over there became more and more enthusiastic, and he had begun to rush from poetry and songs to his ideal of life.
There was a clear yearning in Faulkang's voice, "Yesterday, I met with Yan Haozhen and heard him talk about the days of those golden iron horses on the battlefield, which really made my blood boil, and I wished I was one of them to establish immortal deeds." ”
Speaking of Yan Haozhen, Liu Yu also heard General A Gui mention it. It is said that he and his Tala's Jiyuan were both stuffed into the military camp by their elders for training, but unfortunately they couldn't endure hardship. After Yan Haozhen went to the door to report his injury and left the team, although the generals in the army knew what was going on, they were also hindered by Prince Shuo's face, and let him go with his eyes closed. And he was far from having a backstage but still wanted to be a deserter, and was shot by the night guard as an enemy scout after the night watch.
Liu Yu was afraid that Yan Ji would be sad when she heard the news, but when she went to see her, she saw only relaxation on her face. Even she said very plainly that she was waiting to see Luolin's fate now, and she would be complete when Luolin was finished......
Just when Liu Yu lamented the depth of Yan Ji's hatred, Faulkang's voice turned into infinite melancholy, "It's a pity. As Yongqi's companion, I have a great responsibility, and I am valued by the emperor, so I can't easily leave the palace for a long time. This kind of protection and attention is a blessing for me, but it is also a misfortune. A good man has ambitions in all directions, I don't want to be confined in this deep palace, I yearn for the iron-blooded and exciting battlefield. Alas, I don't know when I will get my wish. ”
"There will be a day like this." Qing'er's voice was full of comfort and encouragement, "You should understand the emperor's intentions, he just wants you to grow further." When you are really mature, it is the time to stretch your talents. The ancients had Zhongyong's wounds, and the emperor wanted to give you more time to sharpen so as not to repeat the mistakes of the past. But don't worry, I will mention your ambitions in front of the Queen Mother. ”
Qianlong's eyes narrowed. He felt. It is necessary to mention this character to the emperor. The age has also arrived, and it is better to marry early. It also saves the trouble of making things like the crescent moon of that year. As for marrying whom? Hum. Anyway, don't think about this Faulcon. I want to use the royal character to elevate my status, and I don't look at my own virtue.
It is estimated that Qing'er mentioned the Queen Mother, which made Faulkang very satisfied, and he said gratefully: "Xie Lu, thank you, Qing'er." "Earlier, he had some thoughts about the new moon, but since Qing'er entered the palace. Faulcon immediately corrected the target. In terms of age, this Qing Gege is obviously more suitable for him. Moreover, Qing'er is a celebrity around the Queen Mother, which is more in line with his interests.
Of course. For Princess Helan, who was next to the queen, Faulkang once had ideas. After all, Qing'er is just a Gege without a title, but Princess Lan is a real princess Heshuo, and this level is not a little bit worse. But. Although Princess Lan's appearance is good, she is not the type he likes, and her temperament is not gentle enough. Of course, more importantly...... Princess Lan didn't pay any attention to him at all.
"You're really, still polite to me." Qing'er's voice became melancholy, "In my life, there is only the Queen Mother, and there is no self. I can't help but live my own life, but I don't want others to be like me. Erkang, you are an idealistic and talented person, I can't watch your ideals and talents being buried. So, I'm going to help you, and I'm helping myself. ”
The two people in the corner squinted, and then looked at each other meaningfully. Qing'er's origin, they all know that if it weren't for the Queen Mother taking her with her, she might have been tossed by her sister-in-law. Moreover, since she entered the palace, the Queen Mother has also doted on her, giving her a different kind of dignity everywhere. But now, the woman is complaining!
"Everyone says that I am the celebrity around the Queen Mother, and I am the most favored character of the Queen Mother. But no one saw that I had lost anything from such a position. Since I was thirteen years old, I have been serving by the Queen Mother's side, and every day when the Queen Mother does not get up, I have to get up first, and I can rest at night when the Queen Mother is settled. The Queen Mother's food, clothing, housing and transportation, everything needs me to worry about. Sometimes, I feel tired, too. ”
Qing'er is right, but it's all self-inflicted. There are dozens of servants around the Queen Mother, to say the least, where can she be used to do everything. Since this girl entered the palace, in order to get the queen mother's favor, she rushed to serve. At the beginning, the Queen Mother took pity on her young age and always refused to let her do it. She said that it was her wish to serve the Queen Mother, and asked the Queen Mother not to refuse.
The Queen Mother also knew that this was a little girl who had just changed to a new place, and she felt insecure, so she gradually stopped her. I just thought that it would be good to get acquainted with it in the future. It's rare that this Qing'er can persist and serve the Queen Mother day in and day out for two years. The old lady didn't say anything, but she was comforting in her heart, and she loved Qing'er even more, and she also let go of the mind of use in her heart, and she had more love for her ancestors and grandchildren.
Otherwise, with Qing'er, a different surname with no grade, no father and no mother, how could she have such a status in the palace. Everyone in the palace respects her, and that is what the Queen Mother has signaled openly and secretly. Even, the Queen Mother has already discussed with Qianlong, and she will be recorded in the name of the queen in the coming year and canonized Princess Heshuo. I just don't know if the old lady will be sad if she hears these complaints.
Qianlong was still very filial to his wife, and his face was gloomy when he heard these words. Liu Yu's expression is not good-looking, no matter who it looks at, the Queen Mother is really good to him. The people in this palace who are kind to him, Emperor Qianlong ranks first, and the Queen Mother is the second in Tie Da. Although he knew that Lu Daoqing'er was unfamiliar, he still felt angry.
"Heck, let's not talk about these boring topics. Erkang, tell me about the battlefield, what did Wanyan Haozhen tell you? Did he kill anyone, did he make meritorious contributions, and what reward did the emperor have? Suddenly, Qing'er laughed, her voice became cheerful, and she asked, "I heard that Prince Duan made a great contribution to the title of king this time, do you know about him?" ”
Faulcon was silent for a while, and said in a slightly low voice: "It's a pity for Wanyan Haozhen this time, he was injured before the war started and was forced to leave the team. Therefore, he failed to get military merit this time, and he himself regretted that he couldn't do it. As for the Prince Duan who has made great contributions, hmph, the person who didn't even go to the battlefield is just a false appearance. If you want me to say, maybe all his credit is robbed. ”
Qing'er first expressed regret to Wan Yan Haozhen, "Ah! sighed, and expressed shock to Liu Yu, "Ah? "Yes. The tone was full of emotion-color, so that people could imagine what she looked like without looking. (To be continued......)
