Wei Dongting reported on his work and went to Beijing

Emperor Kangxi patrolled the north to hunt tigers

Yao Qisheng and Shi Lang jointly bowed to Kangxi, stated the details of the dispute between the two, sent 600 li to Beijing urgently, and reported the punishment of Lai Ta to Kangxi with a folding piece.

When the recital arrived, Kangxi was in the study to discuss the trip to Fengtian with the ministers. Because the wolf came back to report on his work, and reported in detail on the deployment of the Rakshasa forces in Heilongjiang and the situation of Bahai, Zhou Peigong and the Cossacks for several years, Kangxi decided to go to the northeast to see the war preparations, personally visit the ancestral land of Shengjing Longxing, and meet with the Mongol princes of Monan by the way. After reading Shi Lang's folded book, Kangxi suddenly laughed out loud and said: "Laita, a minion, has to be governed by someone like Shi Lang!" The bad habit of the Han people is to sell their fame and reputation, and the Manchu people also have a bad case, that is, they are arrogant and inadequate. It's good now, use ten red-coated cannons and 100,000 rockets to redeem the top, dare you be afraid that he will not converge and converge? As he said that Shi Lang had punished Raita, everyone laughed with him. Kangxi ordered Gao Shiqi to draft an edict to Shi Lang, allowing the summer camera to enter the army, and Laita was transferred to the Sichuan general after building the cannon, so as not to be hindered.

"When it comes to cannons, they are still Western man-made essences. When pacifying the 'three feudatories', Zhang Chengzao's artillery came in handy in Hunan and Shaanxi. Now I heard that the artillery bureau has stopped manufacturing again, this can't be done! Suo Etu remembered this and told the military department to pay attention, I want to see it! Kangxi sat on the big kang with hot charcoal, chewed slowly with osmanthus sugar dipping peanuts in his hand, and said in contemplation. Suo Etu hurriedly bowed and said "yes", and said with a smile: "Shi Lang's gunboat plus these, the slave looks at it is enough, this time the rebuilt cannon, you might as well use it on Geerdan, I'm afraid that it will not be good to store it in the library for a long time." ”

Xiong Cilu sat next to Suo Etu, he didn't agree with fighting Taiwan, seeing that Kangxi had made up his mind, he was worried about the unfavorable war, so he smiled and said: "There are still four or five months before the summer, if you can build another twenty cannons, the minister thinks that it should be transported to Fujian, and it is always good to be careful." Wait for Taiwan's victory, and then transport the artillery to the Gubeikou camp, and hand it over to Feiyang for ancient use, and it is even more necessary to prepare carefully for a war with Dzungaria. "Kangxi is using troops in the west, and is choosing the former enemy general, Xiong Cixu recommended Feiyang Gu to be competent for this job several times, but he didn't make a decision, listening to Xiong Cixu still say "Jiaofei Yanggu", and said with a smile: "It seems that you are determined to recommend Feiyang Gu." I seem to be better than Zhou Peigong, he is the assistant minister of the king of Ganshanping, and he is very orderly! ”

Mingzhu didn't want Zhou Peigong to send troops again to make meritorious contributions, so he hurriedly smiled: "Shaanxi to quell the rebellion, the main general is still Tuhai, the soldiers are the slaves of the prince of Beijing, and there is no Tuhai in charge, what can a certain Han member of Zhou do?" The soldiers in Gubeikou are different from those brought by Zhou Peigong that time, they are all on the three banners, and Lao Tuhai is too sick to use it anymore, and Zhou Peigong can't do it alone. Suo Etu wrote several letters to Zhou Peigong one after another, but he didn't get a reply, and he felt uncomfortable, so he said: "What Xiong Dongyuan and Mingzhu said is that Zhou Peigong is a weak scholar, and it is really powerless to lead the Eight Banners of the Eight Banners alone, not to mention that he is ......also sick."

Kangxi shook his head while listening, and the words of several people meant that although he didn't know the end, he said that Zhou Peigong couldn't lead the troops, and he didn't believe it anyway. When Zhou Peigong was still a white-clothed showman, Kangxi had a military interview on the spot in the rotten face alley, it was really a conversation with Feng, all four were shocked, Nanyuan marching method, Pingliang victory, Zhou Peigong's merits were really on the sea, and he was transferred to Fengtian as the admiral, which was originally used for the war in the west, how could it be easily changed at this time? Thinking about it, he couldn't help but smile slightly, and was about to speak, Li Dequan came in and said:

"Long live Lord, Wei Dongting, the Governor of Guangdong, Fujian, Yunnan and Zhejiang Customs, is coming to Beijing, hand over the sign, please see it!"

"Are you here? Where is it? Call him in! Kangxi jumped up and commanded loudly, "He must have just arrived--ask the imperial dining room to get a few dishes, the number of samples does not need to be many, it should be fried freshly, not warm, it is more affordable!" As he spoke, Wei Dongting had already come in, and there was a person holding the document behind him, but it was He Guizhu, the official of the Seal Hall of the Internal Affairs Office.

Wei Dongting has been out of Beijing for three or four years, although he has a distinction between monarchs and ministers with Kangxi, after all, he has been sitting together since childhood, and the monarchs and ministers have a deep friendship, as soon as he came in, he listened to Kangxi's instructions to ask people to take care of himself, somehow, his nose was sore, and he almost fell into tears, and while kowtowing, he said: "Slave Wei Dongting respectfully sees the master!" Look what's wrong with me, it's just tears—a man with a big beard, it's really unseemly! ”

This is true feelings, Kangxi couldn't help but feel hot in his heart, his happiness turned into emotion, stared at Wei Dongting, and said for a long time: "Yes, you are also thinking about it now." How is the old and young in the family, and what about my grandson Eminem? Can you eat? Wei Dongting hurriedly wiped away his tears and smiled: "Thanks to the master's blessing, the slave's mother is still in good health, but she misses her master, and she has to repeat it several times a day." This time the slave entered Beijing, and the mother brought ten jars of drunken dates specially for the master in the autumn, and she said that the master loved to enter. Shi Jianmei, who gave birth to her second child this year, has already made it clear in the excerpt......" Kangxi smiled: "I promised to give this child a name, and it will be called - Wei Zhuan - Hengzhu will meet soon." I will tour the south next year, and ask Jianmei to prepare two good goose paws for me! After saying that, he smiled, and asked He Guizhu again, "What's the matter with you?" ”

"Back to the words of the Long Live Lord," He Guizhu kowtowed with a smile and said: "The slave sent the fold, which contains the fold of Jin Fu repairing Xiaojiadu, the Fuhe River has been half opened, and the rest is expected to be completed before the autumn flood next year." This is the list of officials of the Ministry of Rites who went to Fengtian to drive, do you want to let Xiong Ci take a look at it before entering the master's palace? Another is Li Guangdi's invitation, the master's northern tour, and the prince's excerpt in Beijing to preside over the court's affairs, and ask the emperor to decide. ”

Kangxi nodded and smiled: "He Guizhu has studied hard in the past two years, and he has grown, and only these few words are more concise and clear than before......" picked up the list and glanced at it and threw it to Xiong Cixu, and said: "You think about it again, I am not going to visit the mountains and rivers, Li Guangdi, Cha Shenxing and these literati and artists don't have to drive, there is enough Gao Shiqi." It's rare for Dongting to come back, so let's go to Shengjing with me, right? Wei Dongting hurriedly kowtowed: "This is really an unexpected joy, the slave can't wait for it!" I'm afraid that the master will take the slave back, and there are many things that have to be calmly returned to the master! For a while, the imperial dining room came to say that the dishes were ready, and Kangxi Yin said with a smile, "Don't send it, he can't eat well here—he also went to the guard room to eat sweetly with your friends." I will leave the day after tomorrow, you will go to Lafayette to say hello first, see the old friends in Beijing, and then look at Aunt Su Mala, and the day after tomorrow I will hand over the sign to come in - you kneel down! ”

Wei Dongting agreed to go down repeatedly, Kangxi Fang picked up Jin Fu's fold, and while looking at it, he scratched it with his fingernails, and asked in his mouth: "The emperor is out on patrol, and the prince is sitting in Beijing, so he didn't have anything to say, but I'm afraid he's still too young, right?" Suo Etu said with a smile: "Although the little master is young, the emperor presides over all the major events outside, he is only learning to read excerpts in Beijing, seeing the minister, and there are old master Xiong and Tang Bin to take care of them, Li Guangdi is not driving, and he can also help with affairs, and the emperor does not have to worry about it." Mingzhu also smiled: "What Suo Xiang said is very true, the slave said a crazy thing, when the master ascended to the pole, he was only eight years old, and he was afraid that he was not as tall as the little master is now!" Naturally, the important business is still sent to the place where the emperor is going, and the rest are irrelevant, the courtiers outside have discussed it, and Lafayette inside can also take care of it, and the eldest brother and the third master are also waiting for the prince, isn't it strict? Kangxi didn't pay attention to the subtle differences in the words of these two courtiers, and when he was silent, he smiled: "That's it." However, since the prince is regent, he also has to have some decency. Suo Etu has played before, please add more to the prince's clothing, because he is still young, I did not agree. Now that he has come out to do things, although he is flesh and blood with his brothers, in the end there is a distinction between monarchs and ministers, I look at the crown of the prince, you can use Xuanhu and Dongzhu to add to twelve, and the rest of the prince's Qinghu crown and ten Dongzhu to show the difference - Xiong Cixu, you are a person from the Ministry of Rites, what do you say? ”

Xiong Cixu has already been listening intently, the prince has always been in charge of the country, and the rest of the princes are absolutely not allowed to interfere in politics, and now the prince and the prince are to handle the government, which is very inappropriate. But the rules brought by the Qing Dynasty from outside the customs are like this, and it is not trivial to move this "ancestral family law". Of course, he heard the voices of Suo and Ming, but he felt that he couldn't provoke either of them. After thinking about it for a while, he said slowly: "In fact, it doesn't really matter whether the clothes are changed or not, what matters is the status of the monarch and the minister, and there must be a clear edict." However, since the emperor said that the crown prince will be added, in addition to clothes and hats, there are also etiquette, and the Ministry of Etiquette must be ordered to plan it according to the system of the previous dynasty, so that it will not be disordered. ”

Kangxi tasted it at this time, and several people did not agree on it, and they didn't have time to think about it at the moment, so they only said: "I will play according to the performance of Xiong's performance, and ask the Ministry of Rites to draw up my look." And he commanded them to kneel down.

The next day, Kangxi's car drove out of Beijing from Dongzhimen and headed north. Because of the first will, the Ministry of Rites was not allowed to set up a large number of books, so he only sat in a green tweed warm mule car with a yellow crank cover, because Mu Zixu stayed in Beijing to guard the prince, only Wu Dan brought more than 20 elite guards to surround Kangxi. The eunuch Li Dequan set up Hai Dongqing and a cadre of internal eunuchs to follow on horseback, and Suo Etu and Mingzhu followed behind the car to listen to the greeting. Wei Dongting and Gao Shiqi trailed behind. These two people know each other as Kangxi's confidants, one is studious and humble, kind and calm, and the other is funny, wise, erudite and talented.

After four days, you will go out of Gubeikou, and there is the vast Mongolian steppe outside - from here to the east, through Chengde Fu, Shida Ling River, Liao River, from Lingyuan, through Chaoyang, Karaqin Left Banner, you can go to Fengtian.

Kangxi was born in the mainland, grew up in the Forbidden City, and is accustomed to rows of houses, winding and deep lanes, and has also inspected the western area of Gyeonggi Mountain. At first glance out of the Great Wall, look far and near, the grass and trees are continuous, the foxes and rabbits are running, the black water and white mountain grasslands are endless, but the sky is high and the earth is wide. A gust of wind blows, the clouds shake the trees, and the white grass swaying, which is really refreshing! Kangxi couldn't sit still in the car, jumped out with great interest, jumped a few times on the grass, and laughed childishly: "Okay! The spring breeze is refreshing and beautiful! Wu Dan also said with a smile: "The slave hasn't been outside the gate for fifteen years, it's really kind to see, and when the tender grass comes out after a while, it's really beautiful!" Back then, the slave was a horse ...... outside" He suddenly didn't say anything, being a "horse thief" was not a glorious thing after all. Kangxi ignored it, took the bow and arrow in the hand of a guard, jumped onto the big green horse specially prepared for him, shook the reins and whipped lightly. The horse originally came out of Mongolia, and was like a cage in the imperial stable for a long time, and when he saw the grassland, he was really like a fish in water, and he went around in a circle on the spot, and ran out with a long neigh. Wei Dongting clamped his legs and rushed over to escort him like a lightning speed. More than a dozen yellow sheep and two foxes were so frightened that they scurried out of the grass. Kangxi was overjoyed, took out a carved wolf's tooth arrow from the quiver and put it on, like a full moon, it shot out with a "whoosh", and a yellow sheep "mooed" and fell into the grass nest, rolling and not moving.

"Li Dequan, release my Hai Dongqing!" Kangxi raised his bow and laughed on his horse, "Dongting, you and Su Lun went around from the north to intercept this herd of livestock. Wu Dan, what are you talking about? Go to the west and block it - Gao Shiqi follows me to pick up the prey - and the rest go to the east, don't let them run away, hey! This herd! ”

"Piercing!" The crowd laughed loudly and agreed, and scattered to surround the group of wild animals that were running for their lives. Li Dequan untied Hai Dongqing tied to his arm, the bird of prey screamed and spread its wings, more than eight feet long, soaring straight into the sky, circling in the sky in a big circle and swooping down, already pressed down a yellow sheep, stretched out its claws like a steel hook to grab the scalp of the sheep, fluttered its wings a few times, and actually lifted more than 20 zhang high! The guards cheered and shouted in unison, "Good! But Hai Dongqing threw the sheep straight down and went to hunt for prey.

Gao Shiqi white-faced scholar, when have you seen this kind of scene? opened his mouth and laughed, followed Kangxi closely, and picked up three yellow sheep in a row and put them on the horse's back. Seeing that Wu Dan had rushed back four or five frightened yellow sheep from the west, and actually rushed towards him, Gao Shiqi was at a loss for a while, and only shouted with his fingers: "Quick, fast!" Kangxi's eyes were quick, and after a few bowstring sounds, he had already poured two more. Gao Shiqi saw a yellow sheep leg injured, boiled up and jumped and ran very slowly, happily jumped off the horse, and didn't know where the strength came from, a few hurried to catch up, twisted the ears of the yellow sheep with both hands, rode under the crotch, and untied the clothes and belts in an irregular manner, while panting and shouting: "Emperor, Emperor!" The minions caught one too! As soon as he looked up, he saw Kangxi flying away, and he hurriedly got on his horse and chased after him. At this time, there was a loud shout in the distance, mixed with Wu Dan's smug and strange smile - the guards on the northwest side met and captured the two roe deer and two yellow sheep alive.

Kangxi drove the remaining four or five yellow sheep into a small mountain valley, seeing that the twilight was vast, there was no road, and it was no longer possible to ride a horse, Fang raised his whip and laughed. When he turned around, he saw Wu Dan, Gao Shiqi and three or four guards rushing over, so he said, "Sensei chased after him." At this time, it will be dark in half an hour, so open the net and spare them! Before the words were finished, the yellow sheep rushed out of the valley like arrows, and they took the road away regardless of people. When Kangxi was surprised, Wu Dan rushed forward and yelled, grabbed Kangxi's arm and pulled it behind him, and said:

"Master, pay attention, there are fierce beasts!"

Gao Shiqi, who was laughing, was frightened by the creepy sound of his forest people, and his body was short! Kangxi looked back, there was no movement, and scolded with a smile: "Wu Dan, what kind of ......corpse are you blowing up?"

"Master, the slave is a Kwantung horse thief, I've seen a lot of this!" Wu Dan said hurriedly, his expression became hideous and terrifying in an instant, and he turned around and ordered a small guard, "Go and call Lord Huchen, and the rest of the guards protect the adults!" ”

As soon as the words fell, there was a sound of brushing in the grass behind the rocks, and a spotted tiger poked its head out, and the big tiger's head was raised and let out a thick and low long roar, and several horses were so frightened that they suddenly collapsed to the ground, and Kangxi staggered to stand firm. Gao Shiqi was so shocked that there was no blood on his face. Zhang Yuxiang, a new guard, was so frightened that he sat on the ground, was lifted by Wu Dan, looked at the ear bracket of a boss, and scolded: "Fuck your grandma, no soul?" Don't see the master here? ”

"Pluck out his feathers!" Kangxi was shocked for a while, calmed down, glanced at Zhang Yuxiang, and commanded coldly.

The tiger climbed the rock. Only then did I see that its whole body, the color of yellow satin, was seven feet long! It lazily stretched out its front paws, looked at the people in front of it as if carelessly, erected its tail more than five feet long, bared its teeth and roared again. The noise was so loud that it could be heard from three miles away, and the horses were all shocked into a mess of mud, lying undead in the ground.

"Protect your master!" Wu Dan threw his robe into the grass, took a breath, slowly took two steps towards the tiger, smiled and nodded his nose with two fingers, and said, "Beast, come, you come!" Although the tiger didn't understand his words, he knew that he didn't have good intentions, so he threw his legs down, his hind buttocks towered, and shook his head from side to side and rushed over, colliding with Wu Dan. A thrilling man-tiger fight begins. The tiger's thick claws grabbed Wu Dan without a head or face, and Wu Dan cleverly changed his steps and fought with the tiger. He was already a martial arts master outside the gate, became a Kangxi guard, and followed the iron arhat Shi Longbiao to learn art for several years, and had a hard kung fu that he had practiced, his body was like a bear, and his heart was vicious. After a few palms, Wu Dan got up, pounced on it with a strange scream, and hugged the tiger tightly, hugged the tiger's neck with one hand, and transported it into a red sand palm with the other hand, and slammed it into the tiger's chin and ribs. The tiger opened its bloody mouth, helpless under the chin, clinging to the body and couldn't touch it, so he used his front paws and back paws to crawl and grab, and the back of the Wudan cowhide armor was torn by it one by one, and the legs were also scratched and bleeding red blood.

At this time, Wei Dongting had already arrived, and when he saw that Kangxi and the guards were watching blankly, he said sharply: "How can you do such an errand?" This kung fu accompanies the master to watch the excitement? Put the master in the back! "Seeing the man and the tiger rolling together, crushing a large patch of grass into the wheat field. Wei Dongting slowly pulled out a dagger from the leggings, approached the tiger, and was afraid that Kangxi would want a tiger skin, so he stabbed it on the head when he saw it when he was rolling, and then turned it over and stopped, so three or four times back and forth. Tiger blood and human blood were all over the ground, and the tiger gradually lost its strength, and was pressed under Wu Dan, and strangled its neck with its death force. Several guards rushed up, some pulled their legs, some kicked violently with their feet, and Su Lunfang dragged out the exhausted and half-dead Wudan. The tiger had no ability to resist, and the guards beat him badly......

Night fell on the prairie, and the guards set up cowhide tents and lit blazing bonfires. The yellow mutton and tiger meat were grilled, giving off an attractive aroma, and Gao Shiqi, Suo Etu, Mingzhu and the guards laughed happily and munched on it. Kangxi came out of the tent, stretched out his body in the cold wind of spring, and looked at the wild, dark and dreary grassland. Wei Dongting saw that everyone didn't follow, so he hurriedly opened the tent and came out, and when he saw that Kangxi was silent, he smiled and said: "Master, it's windy outside, and it may snow this day, please go back." Kangxi smiled: "I want to make a poem about the strength of that Hai Dongqing soaring in the sky, don't disturb it." After saying that, he pondered for a while, and then whispered:

There are 60 out of 300 feather insects, and the most handsome sea is green.

The sex is golden and spiritual, and the different materials are reflected in the Yaoguang star.

Xuan Ang looked left and right, and flicked the six feathers.

The period of the door shoots the sheng is familiar with the adjustment, and the male flies and flickers the yellow silk bell.

Powerful as a thousand pounds of stone, as fast as the thunder of the nine wild whips.

The withered eyes of the original grass healed, and it rose above the darkness in one fell swoop.

Wanfu immediately paid attention, and the birds were left without a trace.

The use of minions can be wasted, like a warrior clearing the suburbs.

Drying eagles to build a platform to save the traces of victory, the good name is not the only standard bird classic.

Wei Dongting listened, Kangxi poems didn't seem to be talking about Hai Dongqing, and after thinking about it for a long time, Fang smiled and said: "According to the slaves, the emperor is shengming, and the warriors and ministers in the court and the generals of the minions are more than the previous dynasties, and the emperor doesn't seem to have to be so emotional." ”

"Although the land of the Western Regions has belonged to the territory of China since ancient times, rebellion is not frequent and it is very difficult to control." Kangxi sighed, "I think, the battle of the Western Expedition is a great cause that has never been done for thousands of years, a thousand hammers and gongs, and the final word, how easy it is to talk about it!" There are still too few warriors and minions! After that, he smiled softly and said, "I'm happy today, I don't want to worry about these things." Dongting, I have been looking at you for a few days, it seems that I have something on my mind, this time I came to Beijing, not just to meet me, right? ”

Wei Dongting looked at Kangxi's blurred face, and secretly admired Kangxi's hard work, and sighed after a while: "What the master said is not it? The slave offended people, and he couldn't sit still in Nanjing, and when he wanted to see his master in Beijing, he had to complain. Kangxi was stunned and thought about it, then suddenly laughed and said, "Is it what you wrote on the fold, Ethan, and them?" Oh...... And – you don't have to say it, I know it. Do your errands with peace of mind, I am in charge of everything, I am just a milk brother like you, how can I easily let people do it? When Wei Dongting heard this, he somehow felt a sour heat in his heart, and tears fell like beads.

Kangxi stood for a while, feeling a little cold, and was about to return to the tent, when he heard someone crying in the east, and was surprised, Wei Dongting said: "This must be Zhang Yuxiang, he was picked by the emperor today...... Kangxi was stunned, silently stepped on the wild grass, paced over, stood behind Zhang Yuxiang who was holding his head and crying, and said slowly: "Zhang Yuxiang, one person is in the corner, and the seat is not happy, you can go too!" It is also human nature to be frightened and frightened when there is a big change. If you ask Wudan and a few of them to be guilty, just say what I said, if you have merit in the future, you will definitely earn Hualing back! ”
