Jiaqing didn't sleep all night, even in the Forbidden City, he could hear the rumbling cannons outside the city, seemed to see the sky-high fire, and heard the cries of the Praetorian Guard's soldiers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Zhongqing, what should I do now?"

Tens of thousands of Praetorian Guards ran back to the capital, the Tang army surrounded the capital again, and Jiaqing's fear returned to that night more than ten years ago. He was still a young man then, but his fears are the same today as they were then.

Jiaqing inherited his father's stubbornness and self-use, and always wanted to accomplish a great job. Maybe it's to prove that he is the Emperor of the Ages, stronger than his own Emperor Ama; Perhaps to get rid of the control of the Don people over him. Anyway, no matter what, Jiaqing always has a strong desire to perform, hoping that his achievements will be recognized, and he hopes to hear the praises of his merits. After defeating the Gurkha and leveling the country, Jiaqing considered himself a particularly outstanding and capable emperor.

After the Qingzhou case was exposed, Jiaqing was furious, his eyes were full of hatred for Datang, and he wanted to use this opportunity to further prove himself, all he wanted was to make the Tang people back down and compromise. The Tang people did show a certain attitude of concession and compromise at the beginning, but the plot reversal was too fast, and the Tang people, who had a deferential expression, had defeated his "elite" at this time and could attack the capital at any time.

"The city wall of Sijiu City could not resist the cannons of the Tang people, and the Tang army had specially developed artillery shells to build strong fortifications, and the city walls could be worn through back then. Now it's the same to wear. Fukangan sighed. His face was also a little gloomy.

Jiaqing looked at Fukangan. The expression was very resentful, "Fu Aiqing, you and I have repeatedly assured that the Praetorian Guards can defeat the Tang Army, why do you fight for a day now, and let the Tang Army be defeated, and now the city is full of the routs of your Praetorian Guards, where will I put my face on the Son of Heaven?" ”

Fukangan took off his official hat. Ping held it in front, but he didn't kneel on the ground, lowered his head and said: "The minister is incompetent, please ask Your Majesty to surrender." ”

Jiaqing blushed, "What's the use of curing your sins now?" According to what you said, the Tang army will break the city in a few days, even if you cut off your head, what's the use?! ”

Ji Yun, a scholar of the palace, said at this time: "Your Majesty, at this time, it has not yet reached the time when things cannot be turned around, and the Tang people still nominally say that it is a drill. The two sides did not really go to war, so everything was discussed. The emperor should send someone to Dongjiaomin Lane. Negotiate with Zhu Yongfang, the envoy of the Tang State, and always discuss a countermeasure. ”

Ji Yun paused and said, "As for continuing to use soldiers, the minister thinks it's impossible." ”

Ji Xiaolan, who is a handful of age, can be regarded as an old minister of the Jiaqing Dynasty, and since entering the cabinet, Ji Yun has played a lot of roles. Moreover, in the cabinet, Ji Yun is a pro-Tang faction, who has always advocated harmony between the Qing and Tang dynasties, and has also presided over many affairs and cooperation between the two countries.

At this time, Jiaqing remembered that there were Tang people in his city, and he couldn't look at Zhu Yongfang before, so he had to ask Zhu Yongfang again, and Jiaqing was not happy with 10,000 pores. But the fear of the Tang army entering the city and pulling him off the dragon chair overrode everything.

He looked around at his courtiers, his expression full of resentment: "It's all you incompetent courtiers, who have mistaken me!" Master Fu, what have you trained as a soldier for ten years? The Praetorian Guards beat people up to the ground, and the new army didn't even dare to fight, and threw myself in this dangerous place, all of them were a bunch of wine bags and rice bags! It's all a bunch of unfaithful and unfilial traitors! ”

The courtiers all lowered their heads very low, and no one dared to look up at Jiaqing, but Jiaqing was still very angry, because no one was kneeling, not kneeling, Jiaqing couldn't feel their panic, even if they raised their heads, they seemed to have backbones, which made Jiaqing very unhappy. Back then, he looked at his emperor Ama's dragon chair, hundreds of courtiers knelt neatly, long live the mountain, what a grandeur it was, but now when he came to himself, he became like this.

Even if he was angry again, Jiaqing could distinguish the priorities, and he still sent Ji Yun to the Tang Embassy in Dongjiaomin Lane to meet Zhu Yongfang. Dongjiaomin Lane is actually equivalent to a small concession in Beijing, with extraterritoriality, and the Tang army even stationed a team of soldiers here. Even after the battle, the remnants of the Praetorian Guard defeated generals did not rush to Dongjiaomin Lane to spread wilderness.

Ji Yun looked at the tall Tang soldiers standing outside the embassy, and couldn't help sighing, he looked back at the majestic Forbidden City, a little excited. When Jiaqing came to power, there was still a new atmosphere. Although he didn't have much affection for the Tang Dynasty Ji Yun, at least there were signs of prosperity in the imperial court in recent years, and the imperial court's income has increased year after year, and there has been no major civil uprising. However, after all, the Tang people are a knife hanging on the neck of the Qing Dynasty, even if they are self-proclaimed **** Shangbang, they have to look at the faces of the Tang people everywhere and act, after all, it makes people feel sulky.

Entering the embassy, Ji Yun met Zhu Yongfang, who came out to greet him in person. The two greeted each other and didn't say much to each other, after all, the situation was urgent.

"Lord Zhu, may I ask you how you can give up." Ji Yun asked.

Zhu Yongfang didn't go around in circles with him, stretched out three fingers, and said directly: "First, you can investigate your Qingzhou case as much as you want, but don't go around to our Datang for no reason, and don't mention the question of cooperation or non-cooperation, let alone messing around." ”

Ji Yun nodded, this article was expected, indicating that he could accept it.

Zhu Yongfang also said: "Second, I hope that your country will be able to pay a sum of money for the joint military exercise conducted by China and your country in a cooperative and friendly manner. ”

This name is very good, and to put it bluntly, it is a reparation. It means that a war between the two countries is not a war, it is a military exercise between the two countries, and the Tang Army has accompanied you in training, so you naturally have to take out some money to buy us as a sparring partner.

Although this statement is very annoying, the Tang army rushed out of the garrison without a clue, killing the Qing army in pieces, shelling and assault with armored troops, the Qing army suffered thousands of casualties, thousands of people were captured, and the entire Praetorian Guard was beaten like a grandson, and it turned out to be a "exercise". But Ji Yun knew that if a disaster could be avoided, Jiaqing Bacheng would still admit it, and losing money was a trivial matter for the imperial court. Moreover, in the name of the exercise, the court can save some face.

"Finally, your country should fully resume the deferred suspension of immigration affairs, and it is almost time for further revision of the treaty of immigration cooperation signed between the two countries in 1780."
