Chapter 410: Secret Fold

In mid-June, in the Forbidden City, on this day, in the imperial study, only Emperor Jiaqing sat there alone, reviewing the folds. The pen &www.biquge.info amp; fun & pavilion has been in power for three years, and for the thirty-eight-year-old Emperor Jiaqing, it is when he is in the prime of life and full of energy, as a man, with supreme power, he wants to make a difference. However, his father is still there, still holding on to power, and often hindering Jiaqing's many statecraft strategies and personnel adjustments, especially in dealing with the big corrupt official He Shen.

At this time, Emperor Jiaqing took a piece of music next to him, and found that it was actually a secret performance, looking at the vermilion mark sealed with fire paint on it, he couldn't help frowning, and then stretched it out again, and saw a few words on the cover, secretly surprised, since he formulated a big strategy with his father in the Warm Heart Pavilion, Jiangnan must stabilize the situation, this is the first time he has seen such an urgent performance in a few months.

Slowly unfolded, slowly browsed, gradually, with in-depth reading, Emperor Jiaqing's calm expression began to become solemn, revealing a state of thought, as if he was recalling something, after a while, his eyes suddenly lit up, revealing a sudden color, so he continued to read and read deeply.

After reading the folds, Emperor Jiaqing did not immediately give instructions, but stood up, took the folds and left, walked towards the door, and said: "Nourishing Heart Palace~"

"Swing the Heart Palace~!"

With the eunuch's high-pitched and moderate call, a group of eunuchs and palace maids walked quickly, closely following Emperor Jiaqing.

In the Palace of Nourishing the Heart, Qianlong, who was eighty-eight years old, was lying there, his eyes narrowed slightly, one arm drooping, the other on his body, and a book in his hand. At this moment, all the palace maids and eunuchs were standing quietly not far away, no one dared to make the slightest sound, they looked like they were holding their breath, and they didn't dare to take a breath, for fear of disturbing the emperor's rest.

At this moment, a little eunuch walked in quickly, seeing this situation, the words that had just come to his mouth were swallowed back, without any hesitation and hesitation, he slowly withdrew cautiously, and when he came to the outside of the Heart Cultivation Palace, he saw the team that was about to come not far away, and immediately trotted up to meet him, kneeling on the ground: "Your Majesty, the Emperor is asleep, and the slave does not dare to disturb his old man." ”

Emperor Jiaqing, who was walking in the forefront, immediately stopped, looked at the eunuch kneeling on the ground, did not speak, looked at the secret fold in his hand, showed hesitation, and finally said softly: "You are all waiting here, don't disturb Ama, I will go first to take a look." ”

Immediately, without waiting for everyone to respond, Emperor Jiaqing stepped out and walked straight to the Palace of Nourishing Heart, every time he saw the palace maid and the little eunuch, he would make a gesture of silence, and he also walked lightly, entering the inner room of the Palace of Nourishing Heart, Qianlong's couch.

The moment he walked into the back room, looking at his father who was sleeping peacefully, Emperor Jiaqing had a strange feeling, especially Qianlong's gray hair and wrinkled face like the withered bark of an old tree, which made him feel deeply, and the dissatisfaction in his heart gradually faded. As a son of man, looking at his old father made him feel very uncomfortable.

At this moment, there is no struggle for the throne, no difference in power, and no intrigue for various reasons, some are just father and son, an old father exudes vicissitudes, lying there, a son's compassion is very uncomfortable.

Walking slowly, slowly approaching Qianlong, Emperor Jiaqing gently sat on the edge of the couch, took a blanket, and gently covered Qianlong, moving gently and carefully, for fear of disturbing his father's dream. Then, Emperor Jiaqing watched so quietly, watching this great father open up an era of prosperity, pushing the rule of the Manchus to a new peak, making the Quartet come to congratulate and the kingdoms submit.

In an instant, Emperor Jiaqing seemed to have forgotten everything, forgot the purpose of this trip, forgot the secret fold in his hand, and abandoned many mortal things, only this situation in front of him.

I don't know when, Qianlong was still lying there, and a voice suddenly sounded in the quiet heart cultivation hall, light, old and weak, but it echoed leisurely.

"Zhuanyan, is that you? How long have you been here? ”

Emperor Jiaqing suddenly woke up, and after a slight reminiscence, he reacted, immediately stood up, and said respectfully: "Amma, it's Erchen, you haven't been here for long, did Erchen disturb you?" ”

At this time, Qianlong opened his eyes and struggled to sit up, and in an instant, Emperor Jiaqing took two quick steps, quickly held on, and let Qianlong lean there. After sitting firmly, Qianlong said: "Zhuan Yan, after waiting for so long, is there anything urgent to find me?" ”

Emperor Jiaqing did not answer immediately, but waved his hand to the people behind him, and the palace maid and the eunuch immediately understood and retreated. When the door of the Heart Cultivation Hall was closed, he took out the secret fold, handed it over, and said softly: "Amma, look at this. ”

Qianlong's eyes narrowed slightly, looking at the contents of the secret fold, from beginning to end, his expression did not change in the slightest, as if he was reading an ordinary book. Soon, after closing the fold, he said with some dissatisfaction: "How can this Na Yancheng be the governor?" Really, such a trivial matter still has to be secretly beaten, let the emperor rule, it seems that it is time to change someone to be the governor of Liangguang, this Zhao Shanqing should also be removed from his post and strictly handled, the secret beating of the two big officials is actually to investigate and deal with a small president of the thirteen banks of Guangzhou, it is really ridiculous~! ”

Seeing this, Emperor Jiaqing showed a look of surprise, which was completely unexpected by him, and then reacted, and said quickly: "Ama, that's the case, the reason why Yancheng and Zhao Shanqing are secretly plotting this matter is because this Yang Lin has been rewarded by you and named a righteous merchant of the Qing Dynasty, and this person is suspected of colluding with pirates, so they did not immediately arrest Yang Lin and send him to prison." ”

However, Qianlong frowned and asked, "Commendation?" Great Qing Dynasty Righteous Business? When did it happen? How come I don't remember? ”

Faced with a series of questions, Emperor Jiaqing was very indifferent, seemed to be accustomed to it, and patiently reminded: "Ama, do you remember the man-made fire that occurred in Jinhua Mansion in Zhejiang Province not long after Erchen ascended the throne?" In that man-made disaster, this Yang Lin performed very well, not only distributing porridge and rice, but also distributing clothes, playing a leading role. Therefore, in order to reward his actions, there was a gift. ”

For a while, Qianlong didn't say anything more, as if he was reminiscing, recalling his memories about Yang Lin. After a while, I don't know if I remembered, I just said: "No matter what this Yang Lin has done and what credit he has made, he is just a Han man." For the sake of today's plan, the most important task is to ensure the stability of the Jiangnan region, especially in the Liangguang area, and there must not be the slightest disorder. ”

"Forget it in this way, let Na Yancheng and Zhao Shanqing join forces to investigate thoroughly, if it is really like their secret play, arrest this Yang Lin, and he will not be pardoned! As for his family, just forget about the work of the past. After saying this, it seemed that he was tired, Qianlong's eyes narrowed again, and he didn't know if he was asleep.

"Yes, Amma, Erchen knows what to do." (To be continued.) )
