Chapter 297: Changes in Tianjin

Haishan's customs yamen has been burned into a vacant land in the earthquake, a busy day, he is also tired enough, learned that the mouth of the Sancha River has not lost the slightest, as soon as the day is dark, he took a group of attachés to the Sancha River, outside Tianjin, the corpses are all over the field, no one to clean up, and everywhere you can see the sad and desperate homeless people, he really dare not stay in the wilderness outside the city. ＂＂

Kangxi and the fourteenth elder brother are both missing, their whereabouts are unknown, Haishan is very worried, the new monarch ascends the throne, he is the supervisor of Tianjin Customs, I am afraid that it will come to an end, he has been in Tianjin for more than a year, and knows that this is a treasure land, even if the fourteenth master is not developed, it will not take a few years, it will be very prosperous, even if he is not greedy, he can easily settle tens of thousands of taels in a year, where to find this errand?

Rushed to the Sancha River, Haishan found that it was very lively, and a group of wealthy slaves could be seen everywhere in Zhangluo, and when he inquired, he learned that the area around the Sancha River was basically not lost, and a group of princes and ministers of civil and military affairs moved into the camp of the sailor and an acre of garden.

Haishan didn't care after hearing this, and hurried to the mouth of the Sancha River, but unexpectedly, in front of the gate of the main entrance, he was stopped by two guards, and someone actually occupied the magpie's nest. ”

As soon as he heard the voice of the second brother Manduhu, Haishan immediately knew that it must be the eighth elder brother inside, and a smile appeared on his face immediately, and he said affectionately: "Second brother, as soon as something happens, I will ask around, and I will rest assured that you are okay, my nephews are all right." ”

"It's fine." Mandu Hu smiled and said, "Come in, the eighth master is inside." ”

Although Haishan said that he voted for the old fourteenth, but according to Yinzhen's instructions, he did not publicize it outside, he was originally the old Bayi Party, and he didn't see it at the moment, so he hurriedly walked in, and as soon as he entered the house, he saw the eighth elder brother Yinxi, the minister of the upper study, Ma Qi, and the king of Doro Shuncheng County, Bu Muba, were all present, and he was busy coming forward to salute.

Yin Xi waved his hand and said with a smile: "Haishan came just in time, borrow your treasure land to rest for one night, this is the general entrance of your customs, you send soldiers to guard the door, so as not to make people suspicious." ”

"Eighth Master, isn't this an outsider." Haishan smiled and said, "I'll arrange it." ”

Bu Muba hesitated and said, "Is Haishan the Fourteenth Master's person, or." ”

"It's all the same." Yin Yu smiled slightly: "To borrow a sentence from the fourteenth brother, the fertilizer water does not flow into the fields of outsiders." ”

Ma Qi was overjoyed when he heard this, the eighth master and the fourteenth master actually had this agreement in private, and immediately twisted his beard and smiled: "Since this is the case, you can win steadily." ”

Yin Xi shook his head slightly, and sighed lightly: "The situation is not optimistic, before, no one would have thought that the prince still has such a big power in the navy, we have a lot of people in the navy, but under the rectification of the old fourteen, they are no longer useful, which shows the means of the old fourteen."

But the prince's people can be safe and sound, which shows the depth of the hidden, in the navy, and in the Praetorian Guard, there is no prince who knows it? This matter is careless, and if you are not careful, you will lose all the games. ”

"The eighth master is worried." Ma Qi said: "The crown prince has reigned for more than 30 years, and there are not a few people who have been favored and promoted by him, and he knows that he is about to be abolished, and it is inevitable that there will be a fish to die and the net will be broken, even if he is careful, it is not too much." ”

Doro Shuncheng County King Bu Muba is one of the rare eight iron hat kings, but also a firm backbone of the eight parties, once tragically humiliated by the prince, and Yinren can be said to be incompatible, listening to the prince will be upset, immediately changed the topic and said: "Now there are more than 30,000 people in the Eight Banners Forbidden Brigade in Tianjin, and there are only two ministers in the guard, Yaerjianga and Qiuerji. For the third elder brother Yinzhi, Yinzhi has never regarded him as an opponent, and said with a smile: "The third brother is indecisive and a scholar by nature, don't you rebel against Xiucai and fail in ten years?" Let's deliberately find another place to live, isn't it just to take precautions, today is a tired day, rest early, tomorrow is the main event. ”

In the middle of the night, the princes who were frightened and frightened for a day, the prince Baylor, and the ministers of civil and military affairs all fell asleep soundly, although Haishan was tired for a day, but he still couldn't sleep over and over, there were too many things happening during the day, and it was too terrifying, and the eighth elder brother quietly lived in the mouth at night, he always felt unsteady in his heart, tossed until midnight, got up and relieved, but suddenly found that there was a faint fire outside, and his heart was shocked, and he walked away again?

When he touched the wall, he suddenly felt that his scalp was numb, but he saw that the sailor camp not far away and the periphery of the one-acre garden were full of soldiers with torches in their hands, mutiny! He gasped and didn't dare to look at it, so he tiptoed to the residence of Tian Yan, a member of the General Entrance Committee, and knocked on the window.

"Who?"

"I'm Haishan, don't make a noise, hurry up, is there a boat here?"

As soon as he heard that it was Haishan, Tian Yan, a member of the general committee, suddenly came to his senses, and hurriedly whispered: "Yes, there are a few ships." ”

"There are soldiers outside, hurry up and order people to prepare boats to escape, and you are not allowed to light the lights!" After Haishan finished instructing, he turned to the courtyard of the eighth elder brother Yinxi, and secretly scolded the group of guards in his heart, they are all fucking dead people, not that Lao Tzu can't sleep, and it must be served by a pot.

Outside the one-acre garden, the crown prince Yinren and the third elder brother Yinzhi stood side by side, and Yinren said in a deep voice: "Order them to do it, first control the brothers, especially the eighth and tenth and Prince Jane Yaerjiang." ”

Yinzhi hesitated slightly, then gritted his teeth and ordered: "Do it!" Remember, you are not allowed to injure your life. ”

Bohai Bay, on the flagship 'Wanado', the captain's room, Kangxi finally woke up, opened his eyes, he still felt a faint pain in the back of his head, slowly turned his head to look, but felt that the room was narrow and depressing, he couldn't help but wonder, what is this place? Soon, he closed his eyes again, recalled the scene of the day, and thought that in the river, Lao Fourteen kicked him with his foot and hit him the back of the head, he suddenly felt that his heart was on fire, and asked in a deep voice: "Is there anyone?" ”

Lang Zhong and Da Chun and several other guards who were waiting outside the door heard this, and hurriedly rushed in, after asking An to see the salute, Lang Zhong stepped forward to check the pulse with the courage to do so, but Kangxi recognized Da Chun at a glance, and his heart couldn't help sinking, and he immediately understood where he was, this was on a naval battleship, he immediately frowned, what is the intention of the old fourteen?

Seeing that Kangxi was indeed awake, Da Chun ordered: "Let people go to the kitchen, and the boiled porridge will be delivered." ”

Yinzhen has been tired and panicked for a few days, and after convening the meeting, he went to sleep, and was sleeping soundly, but was woken up, and heard that Kangxi woke up, so he got up and washed up for a while, and changed into court clothes, before he came.

Outside the door, he heard that Lang Zhong said that it was no longer in trouble, and he entered a bowl of old rice porridge, he couldn't help but put his mind at ease, and after Dachun was far on guard, he went in, and kowtowed in a proper manner: "Erchen Yinzhen, please say hello to the emperor." ”

"I have a splitting headache, how can I have it?" Kangxi was annoyed in his heart, but his tone was surprisingly flat.

Seeing that Kangxi was angry like a child, Yinzhen couldn't help but secretly say bad, Kangxi still remembered that he was knocked unconscious in the river, he hurriedly kowtowed and said: "Erchen should die, the incident in the river is completely out of helplessness, and I ask the emperor to forgive me." ”

Kangxi has never experienced such an encounter in his life, which can be described as a great shame, when he heard Yinzhen, he was shocked, and even reprimanded: "Out of helplessness? Are you right? ”

Yinzhen said unhurriedly: "Back to the emperor Ama, a drowning person, grab a thing in the water, will be tightly entangled, if the son does not knock the emperor Ama unconscious, the emperor Ama is very strong, once the hands and feet of the son are clamped, the consequences are unimaginable, if the emperor refuses to forgive, the son can only go to Nanyang." ..., this is interesting, the monarch and the minister play together, the emperor cannot forgive him, only death, the old fourteen actually said to go to Nanyang. Kangxi pondered slightly, and knew that the old fourteen was a hint that there would be no abnormal behavior, he immediately settled down, leaned on the soft pillow and meditated for a while, he couldn't remember the situation in the water at that time, and in a trance, he only remembered that the old fourteen kicked him away and hit him.

Thinking about it at that time, if the old fourteen wanted to kill him, why beat him, just ignore him, thinking of this, he stupidly changed the topic and said: "How long have I been in a coma?" ”

"It's been half a day since I returned to the emperor, and it's midnight." Yinzhen hurriedly replied.

"Where is this? What are your plans? Kangxi then asked.

Yinzhen said respectfully: "Back to Huang Ama, this is the mouth of the Haihe River, the navy sailors are not yet skilled in sailing, it is dangerous to sail on the river at night, as soon as the day is bright, the son will send the warship to send the emperor Ama back to Tianjin." ”

I heard that it was at the mouth of the Haihe River, Kangxi completely put his mind at ease, if the old fourteen had bad intentions, with this half a day's work, I am afraid that it would be time to go out of the Bohai Sea, but he still asked: "Why didn't you go back to Tianjin at that time?" ”

"Huang Ama is unconscious, the situation in Tianjin is unclear, and the ministers dare not take risks." Yinzhen knew that Kangxi must have this question, so he had already thought about it, and the answer was leaky.

When Kangxi heard this, he couldn't help but be silent for a while, there are princes, third children, eighth and other princes in Tianjin City, and there are six ministers of the guard, and they can check and balance each other on weekdays, the city wall collapsed, I don't know how many can live, lost their balance, and their life and death are unknown, it is difficult to ensure that those princes do not make any demon moths, when they are unconscious, the navy is indeed the safest place, from the naval warship anchored at the mouth of the sea, it can be seen that the old fourteen are vigilant.

Kangxi's current situation can be said to be in the hands of the old fourteen, and the old fourteen has no need to coax him anymore, in this case, the old fourteen can not be moved, and he can't help but feel very relieved, this crime is not in vain.

With the strength of the old fourteenth navy and his huge financial resources, coupled with his means of training troops and his prestige in Jiangnan, once he dies, a group of princes will compete for the world, Kangxi is sure that the final winner is none other than the old fourteenth.

For his own advantages, it is impossible for the old fourteen not to see it, but in this case, the old fourteen can control his ambitions and desires, which is really commendable, Kangxi is completely sure that the old fourteen's decision is a decision after careful consideration, only because of this, he feels even more gratified.

The way of politics is to focus on trade-offs and trade-offs, and the fact that Lao Fourteen can make this decision under such circumstances is enough to show that his mind and control of the overall situation are outstanding.
