Chapter 172: The Reaction from the North

Hearing that the Han army sent troops to the Northern Expedition, Xianfeng felt that a tiger pounced on him, and for the first time in his heart he experienced the feeling of fear, real fear, panic and anxiety have been wrapped around his chest, and he was worried all day long and couldn't eat well and couldn't sleep, and when he saw the minister, he asked about the front-line war.

Prince Gong? looked at Xianfeng's nervous appearance sarcastically, if the throne was passed to him at the beginning, how could the Qing Dynasty become like this!

"Emperor Qi, Nanyang prefect Gu Jiayu surrendered in Kaicheng, the whole territory has fallen and the hands of the short hair, the governor of Shandong, Zhang Liangji, came to report, the number of entry short hair is large, and he asked for support." Abundant? I like to report the battle situation on the front line in front of Xianfeng more and more, and I appreciate his thorough expression, and it is best to him off to death, so that he may inherit the unification.

A wave of anger rose from the bottom of his heart, and Xianfeng scolded: "Gu Jiaxuan! Bastard, I treat him well, why do you want to surrender! Spread the decree and behead the Nanyang prefect, no! Zhu Jiu clan, not one of them is allowed to be spared! ”

Abundant? Secretly, this Gu Jiayu is also a capable official, but unfortunately when he was the first emperor, he impeached the current emperor, shook his head slightly and replied: "Your Majesty, this Nanyang prefect is a person from Suzhou, Jiangsu, so he surrendered to the thief without fear." ”

Xianfeng clenched his fists, and had nowhere to vent his anger, and complained: "Since the puppet Han Li Yunzhong became emperor, the number of officials who surrendered has increased day by day, and these Han people are really unreliable......"

Su Shun saw that Xianfeng was speechless, and hurriedly remedied: "The emperor is angry, and only a few surrendered, and there are many people who fought fiercely with the shorthairs, but the shorthaired soldiers are powerful, please ask the emperor to mobilize the Mongolian cavalry to the south and annihilate the shorthairs north of the Yellow River, so the world can be determined." Those officials who see the wind and steer the rudder will see the situation clearly. ”

Abundant? I didn't think much about it, and I felt that Su Shun was right. stepped forward and said: "What Lord Su said is very true, the ministers are willing to go to Mongolia to gather the kings to send troops to the king. ”

Xianfeng is a clever one. Remembering today's concern? Unwilling to be a rumor of a courtier, he refused: "I heard that you are seriously ill, this errand will not trouble you, you can go home to recuperate with peace of mind, and you don't have to come to the Military Aircraft Department in the future." ”

Abundant? Secretly angry, his mouth replied: "The minister obeys the order!" ”

Looking back, I glanced back at the smug smiles of Su Shun and the others, Yi? Glared at them fiercely, there's time to clean you up!

Xianfeng asked the remaining ministers of military aircraft, "What other good plan do you have?" Come quickly, as long as it helps the frontline war. I've got a reward! ”

Ruihua stepped forward and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, the Weichen has long known that the front-line army is full of twilight, the military attache cherishes death and loves money, and the soldiers cherish the death of their families, especially the soldiers who fight bravely because they are injured and disabled, and the country does not pay salaries and has nothing to rely on, so the soldiers are unwilling to serve the battlefield to the death, and even the soldiers of the Eight Banners have repeatedly fled. It's human nature. ”

Su Shun nodded again and again, and echoed: "The minister also heard that the reason why the pseudo-Han soldiers are brave and good at fighting is because they let the wounded soldiers return to their hometowns and be awarded official positions. I might as well follow suit. ”

Xianfeng was interested, he thought that what Ruihua said was very reasonable, and Daqing did not do well in this regard. asked Ruihua: "Aiqing has a good plan, learning the pseudo-Han is detrimental to the dignity of the Qing Dynasty." ”

This staff member is still somewhat useful. Ruihua replied excitedly: "This matter, Weichen has been thinking about it for many days. If the Qing Dynasty gave the wounded soldiers on the battlefield a salary as usual, the soldiers would certainly have no scruples and would fight hard to kill the enemy. ”

Xianfeng knew a lot about the bad habits of officialdom, and asked rhetorically: "Is this plan good, but every time there is a war, there are injured people, and it is not easy to statistically verify. ”

Ruihua replied confidently: "Wechen has been discussing with the military department for many days, and we can formulate regulations according to the common situation in the army and form a routine, so as to prevent fraudulent collaring. ”

Xianfeng said excitedly: "Let's disperse, Prince Zheng and the ministers will draw up regulations as soon as possible and implement them as soon as possible." ”

Ruihua and Mu Yin caught up with Su Shun.

Glancing back at the Heart Cultivation Palace, Mu Yin whispered: "This emperor has been messing around with a few ladies all day long, why hasn't there been any movement until now, but the emperor's body is getting weaker and weaker, in case of that, wouldn't Prince Gong succeed, and a few of us will suffer." ”

Su Shun remembered Prince Gong's eyes when he left, and his heart palpitated: "You must not let Yi?" Back to the military plane, this kid hated us so much, one day he gained power, and it was difficult for us to die. ”

Ruihua said: "What should I do then?" In the past few months, the emperor has pampered a few concubines and ignored state affairs, so we have suppressed a lot of exhortations, which has made the queen dissatisfied, do you want to offer some elixir to the emperor? ”

Su Shun cautiously looked around, and said to this brainless brother: "You don't want to live anymore, since the former Ming Emperor took the elixir, was obsessed with immortality, and ignored state affairs, my dynasty has long established an ancestral system, you are looking for death!" ”

Ruihua muttered: "I'm just saying that hundreds of lives in our family are on the emperor's side." ”

Su Shun thought about it for a while, and instructed the two: "In the future, we will continue to slander Prince Gong, as for the concubines in the palace, we will leave it alone, the emperor favors her, maybe she can have a son and a half daughter." ”

Mu Yin worried: "This is because Concubine Yi is too ambitious, and she has an opinion on them, praising Prince Gong in front of the emperor all day long, slandering a few of us, if she gives birth to a prince, wouldn't it be more and more rampant!" ”

Su Shun pouted: "What are you afraid of, no matter how ambitious she is, she is just a woman, so she still wants to learn Wu Zetian!" How could our Qing royal family let her come nonsense. ”

Thinking of the Aixin Jueluo family, Mu Yin and Ruihua nodded to each other.

Su Shun and a few people went out of the palace gate and went to Prince Yi's house together.

Su Shun smiled bitterly: "What does this Prince Yi mean?" I don't think he looks like he's seriously ill, what does he want to do all day at home? ”

It turned out that two months ago, Prince Yi Zaiyuan heard the news of the defeat of the Hunan army and the northern expedition of the Han army, so he attached himself to his home on the pretext of seeing a doctor.

Ruihua said what he heard: "All the properties of Prince Yi are in the Hebei area, he has been busy doing business these days, and I heard that he sent people to the Northeast to buy properties. ”

Su Shun couldn't cry or laugh, and asked: "Are you saying that this Prince Yi is already planning to flee outside the Guanwai, he is shrewd, the Han army will have another year to fight in Hebei, and he will not be afraid of the emperor's blame if he transfers the industry in advance?" ”

Ruihua said meaningfully: "The war is changing rapidly, who can say for sure, not only Prince Yi, but also many Eight Banners nobles are doing this, I heard that the price of land in the Northeast has skyrocketed, my good brother, don't miss it, if it weren't for the fact that most of my family's industry is in the Northeast, I wouldn't have to go to court."
