As soon as he saw Yaerjianga wake up, Eighth Elder Brother Yinxi hurriedly squatted down and asked eagerly, "Huang Ama fell into the moat?" ”

"Yes, the emperor and the fourteenth master were not injured, they both fell into the moat." Yarjana said weakly.

As soon as I heard this, everyone spontaneously flocked to the moat to watch, the southeast of Tianjin City is the lowest, so this moat is also deep, more than two feet, falling into the river from the city wall, it will definitely not be injured, no wonder Kangxi and Yinzhen can't be found, it turned out that with the water of the moat was washed away, a group of people were worried about it again, can Kangxi swim?

The crown prince Yinren's heart was cold, it was artillery bombardment and the city wall collapsed, Kangxi was all right? Looking in the direction of the moat, but it is directly connected to the Haihe River, a little hope rose in his heart, since he was a child, he has never seen Kangxi swimming, he must be a person who can't swim, rushed into the Haihe River, how can he survive?

Knowing that Kangxi may not be dead, the princes, princes Baylor, and ministers of civil and military affairs are all a lot more relaxed, but the eighth elder brother Yinxi was shocked in his heart, the navy people left in a hurry, and they must have seen the strangeness, but they can't let Kangxi fall into the hands of that group of navies, God knows how many people in the navy were bought by the prince.

Thinking of this, Yin Yu turned to the Minister of the Guards and said: "Lord Sui, I will lead some people to the dock to search for boats down the river, you gather the scattered cavalry to search for the emperor along the river, the earthquake is only a quarter of an hour away, it should not be far away, you send the cavalry to a few points, and then scatter the search, do you have any opinions?" ”

Yinxi's two-pronged approach, at present, is the most appropriate and effective, and everyone has echoed it. Immediately, they were divided into two groups and hurried away, but no one paid attention to the prince Yinren.

The tenth, fifteenth, sixteenth, and the three elder brothers all stayed. Qiu Erji glanced at the three masters, and couldn't help but curse in his heart, isn't this adding to the chaos, in this situation, I dare to let your elder brother lead the team? After discussing a few words with Yarjana, he gave orders one after another. Ordered the guards to go and give orders, and ordered the pro-military camp, the cavalry battalion, the guard battalion, the firearms battalion, and the tiger gun battalion to go to various places downstream and scatter to search for the emperor. ”

Give it a command. All the guards and soldiers rushed away, and then Erji smiled at the three elder brothers: "Your lords are anxious, and the minions are also anxious, the horses are all scattered, and the summoning is asking for time, how about the minions accompany the masters to search along the river on foot?" He said politely, and as soon as he finished speaking, he had already taken a step forward.

Looking at the backs of everyone. Yinren almost gritted his teeth, and the prince Baylor and the minister of civil and military affairs were also surprised, and he glanced back. The soldiers of the cavalry battalion behind him are also scattered, Kangxi may not be dead, and there are two ministers of the guard, who ate the leopard gall, at this time followed Yinren, but I am afraid that the official has not been promoted, and the small life will be lost first.

Glancing at the more than a dozen guards still standing behind him, Yinren's face gradually became gloomy. Looking at the current situation, even if Kangxi is dead, it will be extremely difficult for him to ascend to the throne, and now Kangxi's ministers of the guards are suffering heavy casualties. There were only two sober people, and Yarjana was seriously injured. The only one in charge of the Praetorian Guard is Qiuerji, and this Qiuerji is the third person.

At present, the third child has soldiers, and the eighth child has the prince Baylor and all the ministers, he is the crown prince but only has the support of Wang Liang, the minister of the upper study, if he is like the old fourteenth, there is a navy in hand, he can hold the ministers hostage while chasing and killing Kangxi, how can there be so many troubles?

After pondering for a long time, Yinren instructed: "Kunna, you dress up a little, when it gets dark, if there is still no news from the emperor, you go to see the third master and invite him to the Bell and Drum Tower." ”

Kunna hesitated a little before saying, "Will the third master come?" ”

"Yes." Yinren said with confidence: "You clearly asked the third master, is he sure that he will fight for the eighth child?" ”…,*

As the sun set, more than 40 warships of the Beiyang Fleet were quietly moored a little far from the shore of Bohai Bay, and on the flagship 'Wanado', Yinzhen was on the deck looking at the sunset on the horizon.

Wu Ge, Yande, Del Xu and other senior officers of the navy all looked at it from a distance, not daring to lean over, after Fang Bao looked at Kangxi, he hesitated for a while, and then slowly leaned over and called softly, "Fourteenth master." ”

Yinzhen turned his head and looked at Fang Bao before he said, "The emperor hasn't woken up yet?" ”

"I don't expect to wake up until midnight." Fang Bao said: "The emperor choked on the water, was hit hard, soaked in the river for a long time, frightened excessively, cold and damp into the body, Lang Zhong added some tranquilizers, the fourteenth master rest assured, the emperor's pulse is stable, there will be no big problem." ”

Yinzhen nodded slightly, turned around and looked at the sea again, no longer making a sound, Kangxi can't swim, he has drunk a lot of water when he was washed into the Haihe River, and in order to save Kangxi, he knocked him unconscious, if he didn't happen to grab a floating beam, Kangxi would definitely die.

If Kangxi died, he was not so embarrassed, but Kangxi had a big life, at this time, Yinzhen felt as if he had experienced an alternative Xi'an incident, the difference was that this situation was not caused by him on his own initiative, but was completely forced to accept it.

At present, Kangxi's life and death are completely in his hands, which is also the source of his embarrassment, if Kangxi dies, the court situation will inevitably be chaotic, although there is a crown prince, but all the princes and ministers know that it is just a prince to be abolished, and more importantly, the prince has no strength, and he has no reputation, the third, fourth, and eighth plus themselves, no one will give up and watch the prince ascend the throne.

In this way, it must be a dragon fight, the current navy in Tianjin is too small, and he still bears a notoriety of killing the king and usurping the throne, even if there is Long Ke to do more internal response, it may not be able to gain the upper hand in a short time, it is likely to be a big chaos, sweeping the world, in the end, even if he can ascend the throne, I am afraid that it will inevitably be killed, hurting the foundation of the world, destroying the national economy, which is the result he does not want to see.

If Kangxi returns to Beijing safely, how will he face the rebellion of the navy? Seroben shelled Kangxi but in full view, even if Kangxi believed that it was not Yinzhen's instructions, but how could it be child's play to plot a major crime? Even if it is for a show, Kangxi must be severely punished, in order to block the mouth of the world, he Yinzhen can't get out of it, the navy will face a big purge, a group of princes, ministers, and imperial historians will definitely take the opportunity to attack and expand the scope of the purge, and wantonly install cronies, not only may he lose control of the navy, but in serious cases, the navy may even die young, this result, he is also unwilling to accept.

It will not work to coerce the Son of Heaven to order the princes to control Kangxi in his hands, then the crime of killing the king and plotting rebellion will be confirmed, and the prince will be the first to raise troops to crusade against him, which is also a chaotic situation.

In addition, in this Tianjin earthquake, I don't know how many clansmen, royal families, princes, ministers' children and gentlemen died, these people are afraid that they will count this account on his head, if this is the case, he Yinzhen can be said to be an enemy all over the capital.

What I didn't expect was that the Spaniards actually took advantage of the earthquake to turn the tables, it seems that they had premeditated, and they really couldn't guess the way of thinking of Westerners in this era.

Regarding the situation in front of him, Fang Bao also thought about it repeatedly, and accompanied Yinzhen for a long time before he said tentatively: "How about going south first to avoid the limelight?" Or hit Japan first and divert attention. ”

Yinzhen was still silent when he heard this, and went south to avoid the limelight? It is definitely not possible to stay in Shanghai, and it is not appropriate to stay in Taiwan, only to go to Nanyang or Australia, then you can only take away all the personnel of the military factory, so it is tantamount to establishing a country in Nanyang or Australia, unless it is absolutely necessary, he still does not want to take this road, the Qing Dynasty is fundamental! …,

Fighting Japan is the best way to divert contradictions and attention at present, and after a great achievement, Kangxi will have a step down, and the position of the navy can also be consolidated, but at present, the navy has such a small number of troops, and most of them are new recruits, and whether the Spanish prisoners can continue to use it is also a question.

After pondering for a long time, Yinzhen said: "Sir, this proposal is good, order the students above the squadron leader to gather in the conference room." ”

As soon as he received the order, Wu Ge and Yande knew that Yinzhen had made a decision, and immediately notified the relevant personnel to rush to the conference room, Yinzhen changed into a naval uniform before entering the conference room, all the students immediately got up and saluted, and returned the salute, Yinzhen said: "The dean did not notice the rebellion of the Spanish prisoners in time, so that 262 naval cadets were killed, please mourn for the dead!" As he spoke, he took off his military hat and bowed his head in silence.

The captains didn't expect Yinzhen to blame himself when he opened his mouth, and mourned silently for the ordinary students, and their hearts were all in the heart, this rule was only afraid that it would be passed on in the navy, and they immediately followed suit, and bowed their heads in silence.

After the silence, Yinzhen beckoned to order him to sit down, but Wu Ge did not sit down, but said sincerely: "Report to the dean, the responsibility for this matter is completely under the standard, and the flag is distracted by the earthquake, and the monitoring is negligent, so that it was taken by the Spanish prisoners, so that such casualties were caused, and the flag is begged for demotion." ”

"Yes." Yinzhen nodded and said: "You are indeed responsible for this matter, first record it in the record, and after you make meritorious service in the army, you will be punished accordingly and sit down." ”

The captains at the meeting were all shocked, Wu Ge was the most relied on by the dean, this little thing, the dean even had to record it, listening to his meaning, it was to use military merits to atone for the crime, and they couldn't help but feel tight.

Yinzhen continued: "The dean did not notice the use of people, and was deceived by Cerro Ben's appearance, and appointed him as the captain of the Marine Brigade. ”
