Hearing that the Minister of the Guards was killed three times and seriously injured, Kangxi couldn't help but ask with concern: "What is the situation of your father Yaerjianga?" ”

"Slave Xie Emperor inquired." Wu Ge replied with a worried face: "I heard that I broke a leg, and it is said that I woke up once, and I am currently in the prince's army. ”

Kangxi has always loved Yaerjiang, and when he heard that he was not dead, he felt a little relieved, but when he thought that he was now in the hands of the prince, he didn't feel a little worried, the prince had a violent temperament, and he was humiliated on weekdays, and he beat the previous precedent of the clan

"Kneel down." Kangxi said in a low voice.

After Wu Ge withdrew, Yinzhen said: "Has the emperor seen Guan Mingyuan, the forward staff of the commission?" ”

Kangxi shook his head slightly, but he was silent, Guan Mingyuan had no reason to lie, these things were not something he dared to fabricate by a commissioned staff, the prince chased and killed the eighth child, and the edict intended to control the generals and lead the troops back to Beijing, which was reasonable. He just didn't expect that the gentle and elegant old man on weekdays would dare to overhaul the intention of controlling the generals, and his two brothers were half a catty and eight taels, and they met their opponents in chess.

Originally, Kangxi was still a little unbearable, at least a little hesitant in his heart, at this time, he had completely let go, let these good sons fight hard, see how much ability they have, and what tricks they can play? Thinking of this, he instructed: "Arrange it, report the situation in the capital five times a day, and in addition, secretly prepare some war horses in case of emergency." ”

Seeing that Kangxi was really delaying his return to Beijing, Yinzhen hurriedly took himself out first, bowed down and said: "Huang Ama, the ministers didn't think about the consequences, so they were wronged." ”

As soon as he heard this, Kangxi knew Yinzhen's intentions, and he didn't break it, but he said angrily: "Why did you wronged him, I didn't see that he was the first to lead the army back to Beijing, and his heart was very hot." ”

Guan Mingyuan, the leader of the forward battalion, was inexplicably detained for a while, and after he was released, he had no intention of searching for Kangxi's whereabouts anymore, and there was no need to look for it again, but the navy was a little weird, and they were intercepted from a long distance, could it be that the emperor was on a naval warship?

If you think about it, it's impossible, the prince mutinied, if the emperor is still alive, how can he be indifferent and continue to stay by the sea? Even if it is a serious illness, I am afraid that I will rush to Tianjin to gather people and horses to pursue the prince. Could it be that the Fourteenth Master is still alive? Also want to enter Beijing to compete for the throne? That's a good show.

Not far from the eighth elder brother Yin and Prince Yu Baotai led the army, a spy came to report, "I found that the prince's brigade was about three thousand, but there was no intention of catching up, but following unhurriedly." ”

Although Ma Qi is old, he does not dare to take a boat, it is much safer to stay in the army, last night's pursuit and killing makes him still have palpitations when he thinks about it, fortunately, the march of the cavalry is not very fast, he does not pull his hind legs, hearing the report, several people are shocked, the prince's movements are not slow at all, if they are late, the consequences are really hard to say.

As soon as the spy finished his report, he said: "Since the prince doesn't want to go to war, why don't we set up an ambush and eat these 3,000 men?" ”

As soon as he heard this, Eighth Elder Brother Yin suddenly felt that he couldn't cry or laugh, coughed lightly, and then said: "Tenth brother, don't be reckless, the prince has a large army behind, besides, they are all children of the Eight Banners, so it is naturally best if they can meet each other without swords." ”

Ma Qi said on his horse: "Eighth master, we speed up the march, the prince wants to escort the hostages, the speed is not as fast as ours, the sooner we enter Beijing, we will have one more moment to prepare." ”

Yin smiled: "What Ma Zhongtang said is reasonable, but can you keep up?" ”

"This idea itinerary, I can still carry this old bone." Marzi laughed loudly. ..., as Prince Yu Baotai led it, the entire team immediately accelerated its march.

The closure of the nine gates in the inner city of Beijing immediately caused panic in the outer city, thinking of Kangxi's unknown life and death, coupled with the boasting and exaggeration of some broken banner people, many people realized that the great changes in Beijing were imminent, and some rich gentry and wealthy households, small officials and officials were busy going out of Beijing to visit relatives and friends.

When the prince mutinied, hijacked the ministers and clan relatives, chased and killed the eighth elder brother, and beheaded more than 30 people such as Beizi Sunu and the first-class prince Jingxi, and the news that the eighth elder brother and the prince led their troops back to Beijing came one after another, the entire Beijing division was panicked inside and outside.

The people in the outer city were worried about suffering from the pond fish, but those who could go went to the countryside to hide, and the nine-gate admiral Long Keduo secretly admired his old man's foresight, and immediately proposed to close the seven city gates in the outer city of Beijing, for this matter, a group of officials and ministers were arguing, and the eight parties and factions headed by the nine elder brothers were resolutely opposed, and strongly advocated letting the five thousand soldiers and horses of the eighth elder brother enter the city, and assisted the infantry army yamen to defend the city, so as to prevent the prince from entering Beijing.

The faction led by the fifth elder brother Yinqi and the minister of the upper study, Zhang Pengxi, was determined to treat everyone equally and refused to allow all soldiers and horses to enter the city. Neither of the two parties could convince anyone, and they fought for most of the day, but in the end they were unable to convince anyone.

Long Keduo did not argue much, but early the next morning, he brazenly ordered to close the entire capital of the nine outer seven imperial city four, a total of twenty city gates, the infantry army commander Yamen and patrol the three battalions of all the horse infantry army are neatly clothed and ready for battle.

The fifth elder brother, the ninth elder brother and a group of ministers, no one expected that Long Keduo would be so bold, and he didn't even care about their faces, and he didn't even say hello, so he made his own proposal to close all the gates of the capital in one go.

After hearing the news, Yin immediately gathered a group of officials to rush to the Yamen, the commander of the infantry army in Chongwenmen, and wanted to force Long Keduo to bow his head, but he didn't even see anyone, and his subordinate generals saw that a group of people were menacing, and they didn't hide it, and told each other directly, "Long Keduo went to the outer city to inspect the defense."

Brother Jiu Yinden was angry and just wanted to scold his mother, the outer city is so big, how to find it? If you don't want to see each other, you won't be able to see anyone else for a day.

Calculate the time, the eight elder brother Yin, Prince Yu Baotai's five thousand soldiers and horses will inevitably arrive in the capital today, if they are blocked outside the city, he Yin really has no face to see the eighth brother, ten brothers, after a little thought, he sent someone to call the fifth brother Yinqi, and notified all the officials left in Beijing to go to the infantry commander Yamen to discuss.

At the same time, Yin sent people to summon the Eighth Elder Brother, the Tenth Elder Brother, Prince Jane Yaerjiang'a, Oro Dai, Mandu Hu and other hardcore clan relatives and all the guards and family members of his mansion, he really didn't believe that Long Keduo could cover the sky with one hand!
