Chapter Forty-Seven: The Wolf Smoke Rises

After Ji Xiaolan left, he came to the camp that Xiao Jin had worked hard to establish, where there were gunpowder and musket workshops, as well as a recruit training camp.

As the person next to Xiao Jin, except for Xiao Jin, no one knows the meaning of this workshop better than him, looking at the hundreds of craftsmen in front of him, he said with his hands behind his back, "My lord wants to change the workshop and prepare to move to another place." “

gave Wang Er Mazi a look, Wang Er said, "You don't need to bring your belongings, when you get to a new place, you will be replaced with new ones." ”

The craftsmen all talked about it, but they didn't raise any dissenting opinions, they had no way of knowing what was happening in the city, and looking at the dozen or so guards with knives, they had no choice but to follow them on the road.

"Go and tell Roda that the gates are ready, and that they must not be properly arranged, and that they should proceed with caution."

Wang Er arched his hand and said, "My lord, please rest assured, Luo Da is given by adults today, and he will definitely have no problem." ”

Ji Xiaolan nodded with satisfaction, "You just stay in Zhujiazhuang with them, don't come back yet." ”

"Why don't you come with us, sir?"

"If I go with you, I'm afraid I won't be able to leave any of them. You still need me here, don't worry, I'm an official of the Bapin Imperial Court, and for a while, the prefect won't be able to take me. ”

When Wang Er heard this, he hugged his fists and said, "Take care, my lord." ”

When they walked away, Ji Xiaolan turned around and looked at the continuous group of workshops in front of him, and sighed again and again.

That night, the suburbs were in flames, illuminating the entire suburban sky.

In the palace, Kangxi looked at the fold in his hand, and tore it up after reading it.

Mingzhu and Suo Etu knelt underneath, sweat streaming down their foreheads.

"Wu Sangui actually said that he was sick and didn't want to come to Beijing, what's the use of just having Shang Kexi and Geng Jingzhong here."

"The emperor is angry, maybe Wu Sangui is really sick, according to the minister's meaning, the top priority is to appease Shang Kexi and Geng Jingzhong, and recruit Wu Sangui's son to see him on behalf of his father, so as not to damage the majesty of the court." Soetu said.

Mingzhu also continued, "Your Majesty, Lord Suo's words, the minister seconded the proposal, these three kings are involved in the whole body, the top priority is not to withdraw the domain, but how to appease the two princes who have arrived in Beijing." ”

Kangxi calmed down, he had planned to do well, he was ready for everything, and he waited for the three kings to enter Beijing, including Jianghuai's troop transfer, to put pressure on Wu Sangui, and the effect was also significant, Wu Sangui really settled down a lot, let Wang Rongzhi return to Beijing, Xiao Jin's matter was not too much to pursue, thinking about recruiting the three of them in one fell swoop, it should be a matter of nine out of ten, but I didn't expect Wu Sangui to dare to come to Beijing.

Holding his forehead, leaning on the desk, he said a little disheartened, "Soltu, I know that you and Wu Yingxiong usually have a good relationship in private, and this matter is handed over to you, so I will bring him a message to Wu Sangui, so that he can be comforted and reassured." “

"The minister deserves death, and the minister has a good relationship with him for the sake of my Qing Dynasty." When Soltu heard that the emperor said that he had a good relationship with Wu Sangui's son, he kowtowed in fright.

"I know what I know." Then he said, "The other two princes, Mingzhu entertained them for my good life. ”

Kangxi waved his hand weakly after speaking, "Let's go down." ”

After the two adults went down, Gonggong Gui stepped forward and said softly, "Long live the lord, take care of the dragon body." ”

Kangxi asked, "Has Xiao Jin had any letters these days?" ”

"Back to Long Live Lord, not yet."

Linxian, county government, "My lord, the fire in the eastern suburbs yesterday has been extinguished, it doesn't look man-made, this thing is dry, it should be spontaneous combustion." ”

Wang Pingzhi said indifferently, "There are no casualties." ”

"Nope."

"Well, let's go down."

At this time, Wang Pingzhi did not know the news that Shun'an Mansion was attacked and captured by Xiao, and was ready to leave half of the men and horses to garrison Linxian, and return to Shun'an, he was ready to send someone to report the matter of the governor Linxian, and sent someone to inform the prince that Xiao Jin had died with the bandits.

"Do you remember what I said, let's get on the road."

As soon as he finished instructing the two cronies, a fast horse came, Wang Pingzhi saw that he was his brother-in-law, and asked, "You are not in Shun'an" Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by his brother-in-law and fell to the ground crying, "Brother-in-law, Shun'an Mansion is occupied by thieves." ”

Wang Pingzhi stumbled after hearing this, almost fell to the ground, and was held up by his cronies behind him. “

"Yes, who is the so-called, is it the bandits of Dalong Mountain?"

"No, it's Xiao Jin from Linxian County, he arrested your family, and all the civil and military officials were imprisoned by him, he said that you rebelled with Wu Sangui, and you have posted notices in the city."

Wang Pingzhi's eyes darkened after hearing this, and he stumbled again, and said with difficulty, "Wasn't Xiao Jin besieged by bandits?" I rebelled? When did the prince rebel. ”

His brother-in-law was also puzzled, "Brother-in-law, didn't you rebel?" That's what everyone in the city says. ”

"It's over, I'm in trouble."

Thinking in his heart, this important thing let the prince know that when I lost the Shun'an Mansion, it is indispensable to have the head on the ground, and the cause and effect of this is known to the few people, thinking of this, he said to the two cronies, "Hurry up and get on the horse, go to Yunnan quickly, and tell the prince that Shun'an Mansion has let Xiao Jin occupy it, and let the prince make plans early and lead the troops to relieve the siege." ”

kicked up his brother-in-law, and was stunned by his side, "Go and arrest Ji Xiaolan, I'll be useful." ”

"Your sister was also arrested? How did you escape? ”

"Brother-in-law, I came here when I learned the news outside, Shun'an Mansion didn't close the city gate at all, I heard the notice that Xiao Jin has reported to the court to ask for reinforcements, brother-in-law, since we didn't rebel, let's just bring the troops back and make it clear."

Wang Pingzhi's face turned black when he heard this, Ma De, is this something that can be explained? Now he can't be the master of this matter, because he can't figure out whether Xiao Jinzhan Shun'an was intentional by the imperial court, or forced by himself, whether the truth of this matter is known by the imperial court or Wu Sangui, he can't escape to death, and he can't wash it by jumping into the Yellow River.

It's not that he didn't think about leading the troops to fight back, the key is Xiao Jin, and now he is going to die Wang Pingzhi rebelled with the prince, the world knows, and now the situation is unknown, in case he encounters the imperial army along the way, isn't he going to deliver food with two thousand.

Two days later, the Wangfu of Pingxi, Yunnan, an old man in his fifties, after listening to the words of Wang Pingzhi's cronies, slammed, and threw out the teacup book on the table, "Kangxi Xiaoer, it's really too deceitful." ”

"Lord Wang, it should be that the imperial court didn't wait for you to go to the capital, so it did it first."

"Hey, don't wait for me, as long as you give me another two or three months, you won't be so passive, now the old man has no three floors, I didn't expect Kangxi to be so decisive, poor my son is still in the capital."

The old man is Wu Sangui, the king of Pingxi, although he has gray hair at this time, he does not have the demeanor of the general of Zhengxi, but he is still in spirit, thinking of Wu Yingxiong, Wu Sangui choked and said, "Gather the civil and military ministers and come to the palace to discuss matters." ”

After hearing this, the staff wanted to comfort him, "Maybe the eldest prince has left the capital in advance, after all, the prince has written to inform the eldest prince in advance that you will not go to the capital." ”

"I hope so, Huiren, you don't have to comfort the old man, the old man has been fighting for thirty years, and he can't see through anything, you go and gather people."

Song Huiren gave up, Wu Sangui suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Wang Rongzhi hasn't left for Beijing yet, right?" ”

"Back to the prince, not yet, what does the prince mean?"

"Very well, you can summon them together."

At this time, Xiao Jin didn't know that due to his misunderstanding, Wang Pingzhi was afraid of death, and the wheels of history suddenly increased their speed, hung up the sixth gear, and galloped quickly.
