In the spring of the 42nd year of Kangxi, in February and March, the willows on the banks of the south of the Yangtze River were like silk, and the warblers flew and the grass grew. In the "Grand View Garden" of Cao Yin's Office in Jiangning Weaving Langzhong, Jiangning Prefecture, the towering palace gates, palaces, beautiful water pavilions, verandah pavilions, are dressed up fresh and bright, and the lights are full of flowers. Cao Fu, who wore the top of the five products, led the officials and officials of the party department to check all over the place one by one, and finally came to the main road of the big palace gate and the second palace gate that was spreading fresh loess.

The mansion and garden of the Jiangning Weaving Office are terrifyingly large. As far as the eye can see, it starts from Yongji Bridge in the east, goes to Beiting Lane in the west, reaches Liji Port in the south, and reaches the shore of the Yangtze River in the north. This is based on the Han palace of Zhu Gaoxi, the son of Emperor Yongle of the former Ming Dynasty, and gradually rebuilt and expanded. After three generations of painstaking management by his grandfather Cao Xi, his father Cao Yin and Cao Fu brothers, there is such a scale. The Cao family was originally a Han Chinese, Cao Xi served in the Internal Affairs Mansion for Shunzhi Ye, entered the flag register, Cao Yin's mother Sun is the current emperor's nurse, Cao Yin has made great contributions in the palace change in addition to Aobai, the emperor's grace is vast, after Cao Xi's death, Cao Yin inherited the "fat shortage" of Jiangning weaving. In addition, he married to the royal family, and was a favorite minister and dignitary of the Qing court, Kangxi had three southern tours, and each time he was stationed here, and the Cao family took over.

Because of this, the Cao family's mansion is also known as Daxing Palace. Decades later, the fragment of the fragment has the title of "Grand View Garden", which is called by Cao Xueqin, the fourth generation of the Cao family. He wrote the court room, the side hall, the arrow pavilion, the garden and the green pavilion, the Tingpu Xuan, the judgment spring pavilion, the mirror pavilion, the tower shadow building, the rainbow bridge, etc., on the west side of the Daxing Palace, into the "Dream of Red Mansions", which lost the dignity of the Cao family and the royal family. At that time, this evil species had not yet been born, and it was only during Emperor Kangxi's fifth southern tour that he was born in this Daxing Palace with fragrant fat powder and misty sideburns.

However, Cao Fuda received the report of the palace that the imperial driver had toured the south four times, so he prayed in the north, looking forward to it day and night. When he heard that the emperor had been stationed in Yangzhou, he sent a fast horse to investigate every day. The governor of Liangjiang, the governor, the banner camp overseer, the princes of all walks of life, all kinds of flowers and feathers, flowers rain down here, inquire about the sound and prepare to take over. Tongcheng's Zhixiu University Scholar, former Prime Minister Zhang Ying, also rushed to live in the Nanmei Garden of Daguan Garden.

Cao Fu was anxiously waiting for news from Kuaima in the study, and his father Cao Yin walked in with Zhang Ying, who was dressed in simple clothes and was almost old. When my father knew the destiny of heaven, he wore a second grade. The weaving official is not prominent, but the silk of the royal family should be enshrined, and he was ordered to collect the people of Jiangnan, supervise the officials, and encircle the famous Confucian doctors, so Caofu is in the center of the political, economic and cultural whirlpool in the south of the Yangtze River. Jianghuai salt, grain, and weaving are the lifeblood of the Qing court, and Kangxi put his henchmen here, so he is naturally at ease. The Cao family's power is a time coming, that is, the governor and the governor, even if the prime minister and the Qin Cha let a few points. Zhang Ying, who did not want to be an official all his life but had been a prime minister and a scholar for decades, had a lot of contacts with Cao Yin, and lived in seclusion at home after returning to his hometown. But as long as you come to Jiangning Mansion, you will settle in the weaving office as usual.

Walking into the study, Zhang Ying couldn't wait to ask Cao Fu:

"Virtuous nephew, where has the emperor gone? Can you drive from Yangzhou? ”

"Ah, old minister, please take a seat." Cao Fu called Yahuan to serve tea to Zhang Ying and his father, and said with an anxious face, "The younger generation is also waiting for the news of Tanma, and the promise will come back." ”

Sure enough, the cup of tea was not cold, and a party official hurriedly ran in, happily and loudly:

"Master, young master, the emperor has started driving from Yangzhou!"

Cao Yin and Zhang Ying stood up together and asked:

"Where have you been?"

"I have passed the mouth of the melon and arrived at Jinshan."

The Jinshan on the left bank of the Yangtze River is abrupt, opposite to Guazhou on the right bank, and it is a famous temple resort in ancient times. At that time, there were carved dragons and painted phoenixes, royal ships with banners, official ships accompanying ministers and internal servants. Fifty-year-old Kangxi, wearing the dragon robe of the Son of Heaven, wearing a crown, and looking radiant, walked slowly towards Jinshan Temple under the embrace of the palace maids of the Huaumbrella Yugai Xunchen. Kangxi's interest is very strong, and in Yangzhou, "twenty-four bridges and thousands of willows, and ten miles of spring breeze on the bead curtain", it seems that it is not fully fun.

Driving to Jinshan Temple, full of monks, tourists, bald light black crows kneeling in a courtyard, long live the mountain. Kangxi beckoned sympathetically and lovingly, and Wei Dongting, the former minister in charge of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and now Jiang Ning gave a reward of silver to the abbot of the temple, and then led the way with the bachelor Gao Shiqi to visit the temple. Gao Shiqi, who is eight years older than Kangxi, is an uninhibited literati, although he was reprimanded by the emperor for the Mingzhu case, Kangxi said, "The Qing family is a good learner, and it can still relieve my boredom", so he was still brought on this southern tour.

The abbot set up a yellow tent on the high place on the mountain and set up a fasting table to entertain the emperor. Kangxi and Wei Lao's chamberlain, Gao Shiqi and other close ministers drank one after another. Because Kangxi wanted to have fun with the people, he was not allowed to clear the mountain, but called more than a dozen personal guards with strong martial arts, and they were always sweating. It must be known that this is not in the Forbidden City and the Old Summer Palace, where mosquitoes cannot fly in, but in the mountain temple where the river is rolling and the people are noisy.

Gao Lao is carefree, throwing gourds and kicking horses in front of the emperor, drinking and discussing poetry. He said:

"Your Majesty, the ministers have heard the poems of Jinshan Temple, since Tang Zhangyou's song is a swan song, and for thousands of years since then, no one has put down his pen?"

"Those who are full of knowledge are also knowledgeable." Kangxi looked left and right and said with a smile, "Wangu Jiangxin Temple, the name of Jinshan is new. There are many days and moons, and the earth is scarce and there is no dust. The oars passed the anti-monk determination, and the waves splashed the Buddha's body. Whoever says Zhang Shishi, there is no one after the question. ”

Wei Dongting exclaimed:

"The wisdom of the saint is full of heaven, and it is an excellent imperial poem."

"The horse's ass slapped on the thigh," Kangxi patted the old man Wei on the shoulder and laughed heartily, "What is the imperial system? This is written by Sun Yi, although it is not as natural as Zhang Zhi, it is also quite imposing. Gao Shiqi said, "I heard that Guo Pu is good at burial, and he must choose this place, where does he live?" ”

The scholar was speechless for a while, thought for a moment and replied:

"What the Holy Lord said has always been passed down from generation to generation, and there is no monument to rely on. The Jinshan Temple Chronicles contain the poem of the Japanese envoy Zhongtiansu in the former Ming Dynasty, and the poem says: "The last sound is lonely and locks the dragon gate, and the green bag is not heard on this day; There is the sun and the moon under the water, and there is no place to worship children and grandchildren in front of the tomb. According to this, the legend of Guo Pu's burial here is no longer credible. ”

There was a pause at the feast, and Kangxi's face fell. Gao Lao Yu realized that Zhong Tiansu's poem offended Long Yan, and he had no idea for a while. However, Wei Dongting, who didn't read much and was very smart, relieved him and said:

"Your Majesty, the slave is not familiar with poetry, but he thinks that the poetry of the Japanese seems to be the death of the former Ming Dynasty. What is 'locking the dragon gate', 'worshipping children and grandchildren without land', they are all said to them! ”

"Haha, you old Wei head," Kangxi stopped the jade cup and jade chopstick, stood up, turned his face and smiled, "Don't discuss the rights and wrongs of the previous dynasty, get off and go to Jiangning after the mountains in front of you." ”

In the woods of the cliff at the bottom of the mountain, there is a mysterious figure who has been peeking at the yellow tent on the mountain for a long time. This person has appeared in the area of Slender West Lake and Pingshantang in Yangzhou, wrapped in a cloth cloth and scarf, dressed as a wealthy businessman, and no one paid attention. At this time, it is a fisherman's costume with a hat and a hat, and the hat presses his eyebrows, covering most of his black face, which is even more mysterious and gloomy. Suddenly hearing the words of "worship children and grandchildren without land" from the mountain, his body shrugged, he snorted, squatted down and slipped down the rocky shore with catwalks, and got into a small fishing boat with a sharp head and blunt tail.

Kangxi returned to the royal ship, silent, closed his eyes and recuperated. Allowed to agree closely, often rubbed shoulders and loosened their backs in a class of concubines and palace maids, and ignored them. Since the collapse of Empress Xiaoyi and the establishment of the noble concubine Tong Jia, the noble concubine Niu Hulu, the Min concubine Zhang Jiashi and the Prince Kang Jieshu, the Prince of Jian Yabu, and the Prince of Xian Danzhen, a group of old ministers have also made ancient times and left him. He had a sense that he was getting old. On the eve of the drive, the ministers of the university wanted to celebrate his fiftieth birthday, and he entered the "longevity without borders" screen, but he pushed him away and left.

Kangxi seems to be wiser than the previous emperor. He is suave and loves women. Several southern tours, there have been a lot of romantic affairs. But he knows that he loves the people, patrols the north and the south, governs the river and the water, and is sympathetic to the people. Water can carry a boat, or it can capsize a boat. Aimin is precisely to consolidate the country and continue the hard-won imperial power. Between women and imperial power, he preferred imperial power and followed women. Women are like playthings, such as clothes and shoes, the best playthings clothes and shoes, you can throw them away after playing, and the court is to stretch for hundreds of generations, and you must not be abandoned. To this end, he ascended to the pole and pro-government, used all his tricks and iron skills, except for Aobai, pacified Wu Sangui, drove the west to conquer and remove Geerdan, stabilized the Western Regions, and made the Qing Dynasty unprecedented "unification of iron hoops". Inside and outside the court, when the rebel son and the second minister are discovered, they will not be merciful. The great bachelor Mingzhu and Yu Guozhu, who had assisted him in addition to Ao Baiping and the three feudal feudatories, all fell off their horses and were trapped in the prison city.

Nowadays, the country is peaceful and peaceful, and Kangxi's southern tour is originally good. How to dispel the good mood of Yangzhou's "Twenty-four Bridges on a bright moonlit night, where is the jade called a" for the Japanese envoys? Sailing against the current, the big waves are rolling, the wind is howling, and the true character of the Son of Heaven is revealed. Kangxi narrowed his half-open bubble eyes, and couldn't help but raise his hand resting on the royal couch, as if he wanted to wave away his long thoughts and unhappiness.

The waves are surging, and the royal boat is heading towards Jiangning in the wind and waves!

The news of the emperor's southern tour spread far and wide, and the huge Jiangning City was already a city and alleys. The officials of various provinces, the officials of various ministries, and the common people, goose and duck walked to gather on the riverside. When the royal ship arrived at the wharf, three cannons rang out, drums were loud, and the crows and ants knelt and squirmed for miles in the crowd, and there was a roar of "long live, long live, long live, long live", and the mountains and the sea responded.

In the crowd of peddlers and pawns in the back, the mysterious guest who did not attract anyone's attention was still indispensable, and he changed his outfit again. Dressed in a soapcloth gown of a commoner in the market, he wore a newly made shearing hat made by Jiangning, and the black velvet hat was pressed very low, almost covering a pinch of hair from the black mole on his forehead. The emperor slowly stepped off the imperial ship under the support of the old man Wei, the senior scholars, and the sword-carrying guards. The former prime minister Zhang Ying, Cao Yin, father and son, and the governor, governor, and general who knelt down at the dock to meet and kowtow shouted in unison:

"Respectfully the Emperor."

"I'm there." Kangxi saw Scholar Zhang and Cao Yin for the first time, turned his face with great interest, glanced at the ministers, smiled slightly, and waved his hand, "You all kneel down, go back!" ”

With the support of Zhang Ying, Cao Yin and the accompanying ministers, Kangxi boarded the dragon chariot that was waiting at the dock in the morning, and the dragon chariot drove through the alley of people who were several miles long to see the emperor's rich color, and drove towards the weaving office. The cheers of the common people infected Kangxi, who opened Huang Man from time to time and waved outward.

Yuxing Daxing Palace, it is already the time of the lantern. The palace in the moon fog is confused, the lights are bright, and the pavilions and pavilions are immersed in the night, as if the heavenly palace Yao Pond, Qiong Lou Yuyu. Kangxi was really tired, and the eunuch palace maids waited for the imperial meal, chatted with Zhang Ying, Cao Yin, and Wei Dongting for a few words, and rested in the palace.

There was no word that night.

On the morning of the next day, the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs awarded the emperor's rewards to Zhang Ying and Cao Yin. Zhang Ying was given a frame of the imperial book list "Ancient and Modern Virtuous Ministers", and another thousand taels of platinum. Then, he sent a decree to the two to meet.

The Cao family is a relative of the emperor, which is easy to understand. Only Zhang Ying, although he is the prime minister, is no more than a Han Chener in the end, and he has received such grace, which is really contemplative. This minister said that he would retire before fifty years, and Kangxi repeatedly said warm words and comforted him. Until two years ago, he had passed the sixtieth birthday, and he was begging for resignation due to decay, and he was allowed to do so. Kangxi gave a banquet in Changchun Garden for him, and dozens of guards and guards galloped to Tongcheng's hometown. Along the way, the county officials greeted and saw them off, enjoying all the honor.

This time, the monarch and the ministers talked for a long time, and it was a short story again. All day long, I wandered around the "Grand View Garden", and from time to time I drank and discussed poetry in a certain pavilion.

Kangxi has removed the crown of the dragon robe and wears a leisurely sea otter skin robe. Zhang Ying Zhixiu is no longer the prime minister, nor is he a minister, he sometimes holds the arm of Zhang Ying, who is seventeen years older than him, and is as intimate as two old buddies. Leaning on the rainbow bridge, looking at the crystal clear water of a lake, and a tail of fish swimming in the water, Kangxi asked casually:

"Old man, it's been more than two years since you returned to your hometown, according to you, who is the first honest official in Jiangnan?"

"Your Majesty," Zhang Ying habitually wanted to kowtow again, but was stopped by Kangxi. He replied without hesitation, "It should be Chen Pengnian, the prefect of Jiangning." ”

"Chen Pengnian?" Kangxi was slightly stunned, "Governor Ahsan still has an excerpt, it seems that he is involved in something." ”

Ah Shan and Chen are not in harmony, and Zhang Ying has long had rumors. But Chen's incorruptibility and reputation are as far as the north and south of the two rivers, and Zhang Ying, who lives in Tongcheng, is also familiar with it. Let's just say that the emperor is on a southern tour, and Ah Shan wants to add money, grain, and silver to spend, but Chen can't hold it, so he doesn't do it. Ah Shan was angry with his past, wanted to add crimes, and searched for gossip left and right, Chen Zi was in trouble. Even if the emperor doesn't ask, Zhang Ying will also tell the void. He came one by one, and listened to Kangxi silently bowed:

"I rule the world, and I am used to ruling by officials. The old gentleman's minister's demeanor, Chen Pengnian can be of great use. ”

Zhang Ying sighed. Chen Pengnian was blessed by misfortune, and he was known to the above, and then became a generation of famous ministers, which is a later story.

On this southern tour, Kangxi was going to Hangzhou, and he didn't plan to stay in Jiangning for a long time. With Zhang Ying and Cao Yin playing earnestly, you will stay for one more day. On the third day after receiving the worship of the local Xinjiang ministers in the palace, he drove south. Kangxi seemed to be unsatisfied, and pulled Mr. Zhang with him. The imperial boat moved slowly on the calm Grand Canal, and the old man Wei, Gao Shiqi and Zhang Ying, waiting for the emperor, were in the splendid imperial cabin, or playing chess, or drinking and drinking, enjoying the beautiful scenery of the south of the Yangtze River.

In order to have fun with the emperor, Gao Shiqi glanced at Lao Zhang Yingdao:

"Mr. Zhang, I heard that there is definitely a song in your house, right?"

"What's the absolute?" Zhang Ying pretended to be confused.

"Why not talk about it?" Kangxi was also interested.

So Gao Shiqi read aloud:

"Six feet alley, two prime ministers, young ministers, and old ministers, inherit their fathers,

Isn't this a coincidence, what is absolutely it? ”

"Well, it's a good match." Kangxi nodded and said, "The Zhang family has two phases in one dynasty, and it is unprecedented, and Guo Tingyu is the youngest scholar in this dynasty. The back is neat, but what is the origin of 'Six Feet Lane'? ”

Zhang Ying smiled stiffly and said:

"When the emperor and his subordinates were still in the imperial court, the old family and the neighbor surnamed Ye fought endlessly for the land boundary, and there were often letters. His Majesty sent a poem in his worries. The poem says:

A piece of paper comes only for the wall,

What's the harm in letting him be three feet;

The Great Wall is still there,

I don't see Qin Shi Huang back then.

The family realized and demolished three feet. The Ye family felt its righteousness and also stepped back three feet, so it became this alley. Over the years, Six Feet Lane has become a place name. ”

Kangxi stroked his palms and laughed:

"Good, good, let profit take righteousness, take harmony as the precious, the golden mean. Mr. Confucianism self-cultivation, Qi family, governing the country, Tingyu Bing is the style of his father, the blue is better than the blue, I like him this. ”

"The emperor has won the prize!" Hearing the praise of his son from the emperor Chrysostom, Lao Zhang Ying was very excited.

Old man Wei frowned and thought for a long time, and suddenly said to Bachelor Gao:

"Zhang Xiangjia's pair, how can it be absolute?"

"Brother Dongting has it?" Knowing that Lao Wei was not good at learning, Master Gao deliberately asked provocatively in order to make the emperor happy.

Kangxi looked at Wei Dongting and also came to join in. At that time, the imperial boat had arrived at the Wumen Gate at the entrance of Taihu Lake, and the old man Wei pointed to the cattle grazing grass on the lake, coughed and said in a loud voice:

Five gates, a group of cows, big cows, and small calves moo

Then, he also learned two cow roars. The cow's roar seemed to be real, and the cows on the shore echoed it. Zhile Kangxi, his subordinates and the eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting on the side leaned forward and leaned back with laughter.

Taihu Lake Kasawa, blue waves, reed flowers swaying, green mountains like daisies, water birds babbling and hovering over the royal boat. Seventy-two peaks are dotted in the sky, this is really the first country in the world! Look around the beautiful scenery, wash the dust, put the wine in the wind, Kangxi is happy!

Gao Shiqi, whose hometown is Qiantang Shop, Zhejiang, saw that Kangxi was quite interested, and his mind turned, and he talked about the romance of the literati and bachelors in Jiangsu and Zhejiang:

"Holy Lord, do you still remember the golden sage sigh of the Fa-rectification in the year when the first emperor died?"

Without waiting for Kangxi to answer, Zhang Ying quietly stabbed Gao Shiqi, for fear that this "funny minister" who spoke lightly and seriously would mention the "copywriting" of the Shunzhi Dynasty, causing right and wrong and causing the emperor to be unhappy.

The old and faint bachelor did not understand, and said to himself:

"Jin Shengxian and his uncle Qian Qianyi are local people from Suzhou on the left bank of Taihu Lake," he pointed to the vast sky, "This uncle and nephew, one is known as a genius in the south of the Yangtze River, and the other is known as the 'three masters of Jiangzuo' in the early Qing Dynasty with Wu Weiye and Gong Dingyu." Speaking of which, both of them have some knowledge. ”

Executed Jin Shengsi, Kangxi was only seven years old, and Qian Qianyi was guilty of sin, even before he was born. Jin and Qian are celebrities in Jiangnan, and he also wants to hear about it. Gao Shiqi saw that the emperor was focused, took a sip of tea, and continued vividly:

One day, Jin Shengsi was in the teahouse, listening to the old and young talking about the right thing. One says yes, and your uplink is:

The cat crouches on the wall and the wind blows, and the cat does not move;

My next link is:

The eagle stands in the treetops and the moon shines, and the shadow moves the eagle.

Another busy way: It's really worthy of admiration and admiration for the veteran. The younger generation also has a couplet, 'Shangsu Moon Gong Cake', and then ask for advice. The old man cut off three whiskers, and he didn't match them. Jin Sheng couldn't help but blurt out, what's so difficult about this, isn't it okay to 'medium sugar cloud slice cake'? ”

Zhang Ying was afraid that the emperor would not understand the Jiangsu Wu language, so he explained:

"In Suzhou dialect, 'Shangsu' is a homonym for 'Shangshu', and 'Zhongtang' can mean 'Zhongtang', which is also a coincidence."

Kangxi shook his head again and again.

"There is more coincidence," Gao Shiqi looked along the emperor's gaze, and three small islands suddenly appeared on the lake in front of him, which were the famous "three mountains" of Taihu Lake, and he also boasted abruptly from the peak, "The old man came out again:

Big and small, go up and down the street, go south to north to buy things;

Jin Sheng sighed and shrugged his head and said, there is, the next link can be right:

The young old man, sitting on a recliner, reads spring and autumn from winter to summer.

I don't know if it's possible? ”

Kangxi nodded and said: "Spring and Autumn is a history book, and it is readable. ”

"Qian Qianyi is in vain as 'Jiang Zuosan'," Gao Shiqi talked about the peak, "he is old and treacherous by nature, cynical, and he is a mother when he sees milk." Ming Wanli Jinshi, once taught editing, lectured in Donglin. The Donglin Party case was impeached and dismissed. In the first year of Chongzhen, he reinstated the waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and returned to his hometown again. Ming died, and he attached himself to Ma Shiying of the Southern Ming Dynasty. In the second year of the first emperor, the soldiers went south, and he took the lead in surrendering, saving his life, and released a waiter of the Ministry of Rites, and ordered the Xiuming officials to sit back and bear the guilt. Such a boneless person, even his nephew Jin Shengsi looked down on him. That time I came to Qianfu to celebrate his birthday, and the house was full of friends, all of whom said that Jin Sheng's calligraphy was good, and he was encouraged to offer ink treasures. Jin didn't shirk either, and wrote the couplet in public:

a civil official with a small flower face;

When everyone saw it, they were so frightened that Qian Qianyi's hands trembled with anger, and it was inconvenient to attack in front of everyone......"

"Okay, good," Old Man Wei laughed happily, "The old man hates boneless things the most in his life." ”

Then, Jin Shengsigh wrote a few strokes: "The elders of the three dynasties", everyone sighed, and Qian Qianyi also turned his anger into joy. First suppressed and then promoted, it is the ancient law, he thinks that his nephew has no respect for his uncle, how dare he sweep his face as a mob. Jin Shengsigh then wrote three more words, everyone fled one after another, and Qian Qianyi fell to the ground in anger-" Gao Shiqi looked at the attendants and asked angrily, "Liegong, what are the last three words of your word?" ”

At that time, when he saw a small canopy boat, flying towards the imperial boat like an arrow, Kangxi was stunned and blurted out:

"Great traitor!"

"Long live Shengming, it is the three words 'great traitor'." Gao Shiqi saw the small boat almost at the same time, and before he could finish speaking, he saw a masked man on the small boat, holding a long sword, flying towards the imperial boat. Suddenly frightened, the old scholar's face was as earthy as earth, and he screamed like a slaughtered pig:

"There's a thief—come and protect you—"

As he spoke, the Raider had jumped onto the bow of the Imperial Ship, rushed into the Imperial Cabin, and pounced on the Emperor. Fortunately, Kangxi followed the "Buku" in the palace to practice martial arts since he was a child, riding horses and archery, his arm strength is outstanding, and his swordsmanship and boxing skills are also very comparable. A few years ago, he often went to Mobei outside the Guanxi to hunt, and personally shot more than 100 tigers. After more than 40 years on the throne, in order to consolidate the national fortunes, the west and the east have been fighting, what kind of life-and-death crisis is at a critical juncture, and what kind of dangerous winds and waves have not been experienced? He pounced, and he was calm, and drew his sword from his waist with a thud to resist the tiger's move down the mountain. The masked traitor must be the demon of martial arts, and the power of the sword is so powerful that the emperor's mouth hurts. Kangxi only has the ability to parry, and he has no power to fight back.

Watching the emperor and the slasher swing their swords and slash, the two white lights swirled up and down, and the sword touched the sword Ding Ding and exploded, which frightened the eunuch palace maid and the ghost crying wolf:

"Help—help—"

Although Zhang Ying and Wei Dongting were old and decrepit, the emperor's grace was as deep as the sea, and they couldn't help for a while, so they had to grab the royal utensils in the cabin and throw them at the guest without a life. The mouth kept chanting:

"Guard—Guard—"

Gao Shiqi staggered and pounced on the thief, hugging his thigh, wanting to use his old body to protect the emperor. The masked man didn't hold him, he was struck in the arm first. The more he killed, the more courageous he became, and he killed a guard with a knife who came to the rescue with a sword. Kangxi saw the guards fall to the ground, and he felt a little weak. He was out of breath and sweating, after all, he was unforgiving, fifty years long, and it was difficult to describe the courage of the year. Dodging the approaching cold light, he retreated towards the rear cabin.

The sound of shouts and slashing in the royal cabin had already alarmed the royal ship and the escort guards accompanying it. More than a dozen guards with knives rushed up together, one to protect the emperor, and the other to slash at the slasher.

The masked demon didn't pay attention to these palace masters, he swung his sword like a wheel, and a cloud of white light enveloped him, but the dozen or so guards couldn't get close. When I heard a roar in the air:

"I'll do it too!"

But from the boat that had just approached, a fierce man in the flag camp with neat armor jumped out. This person's name is Oro Dai, Tong Jiashi, a native of Manchuria, and the eldest son of Tong Guogang, a relative of Empress Xiaokangzhang, a first-class duke, and a famous loyal and brave general. Kangxi went west to conquer Geerdan, and Oro Dai led two battalions of the Han army to the firearms battalion, and was extremely brave in the battle of Zhaomoduo, and brought back to the capital when he triumphantly returned to the capital and was promoted to the minister of the guard. The rear seat was demoted to a first-class guard, and the Jiangning Banner Camp was released. This time, he led dozens of soldiers and escorted the queen.

Oro Dai was born with copper tendons and iron bones, tall and strong, and infinite divine power. He jumped up and shouted:

"Spread it all out for you!"

The guards dispersed. He picked up his saber and slashed straight at the masked demon, and then he listened to it, and the sparks at the end of the sword flew and he couldn't parry it. The devil knew that the comer was brave and abnormal, and thought to himself that it was difficult to achieve a big thing, so how could he take a small life? As he parried, he retreated to the bow of the ship. Caught off guard, he was beaten by a backhand eagle claw by Oro Dai and tore off half of his mask. Just as Oro Dai slashed his knife at the neck and killed him, he jumped into the lake and disappeared in an instant. Oro Dai shouted to the archers:

"Hurry up and release the arrows! Can't be cheaper for him. ”

"Shoot him!"

"Shoot him—"

Now that the raiders have disappeared, the frightened Zhang Gelao, Wei Dongting and Gao Shiqi, who are covering their blood-dripping arms; The royal ship and all the people who accompanied it cheered for the shooter.

At that moment, the arrows were like locusts, with a whistle, and shot towards the water without any aim, and the arrows fell into the water, and jumped up one after another, like a torrential rain, but the corpse of the slaber was about to float up.

Kangxi, who looked a little fixed, walked to the bow of the boat and said calmly to the subordinate soldiers who shouted and released arrows:

"Okay, you don't have to let it go, the raider has already gone away."

Zhang Ying, Wei Dongting and the chief eunuch Li Dequan helped Kangxi to sit on the dragon chair, and then took the lead in kneeling on the deck, touching the ground with their foreheads and pleading guilty again and again:

"Disturbing the holy driver, the subordinates are guilty, and the crime deserves death!"

The local officials, escort guards, eunuchs, and palace maids who came from the neighboring ship also knelt on the ground in trembling and fear, and said one after another:

"The gangsters are frightened, and the minions should be damned......"

Kangxi looked at everyone coldly, and said:

"In broad daylight, there is such a bold traitor who dares to come and do it, and this is worth it! If it hadn't been for the Oro Dai who came to the rescue, I would have been poisoned. ”

At that moment, Kangxi rewarded Oro Dai and rewarded the guards again. It was passed that the Tai Doctor of the Ban treated Jin Chuang for Gao Shiqi, and then personally helped Zhang Ying up, and said with a wry smile:

"Zhang Aiqing, this time I took you with Hangzhou to catch up on the old days, but I didn't want to let you be frightened."

Zhang Ying immediately bowed and kowtowed:

"Whatever the emperor said, he blamed the ministers for not governing Jiangnan for decades, and the evil was not exhausted, so that the Holy Communion was humiliated. Although the old man is already a cloth cloth, it is difficult to avoid his own blame. ”

Kangxi turned to the people who were still kneeling, waved his hand and said:

"I'm fine, you all kneel down."

The crowd dispersed in terror, leaving only a few magistrates. Kangxi had no intention of going to Hangzhou again, so he immediately passed the decree and went to Suzhou.

Kangxi only stayed in Suzhou for one night, and strictly punished the governor of Jiangsu, and quickly arrested the raiders, so as not to let the raiders slip through the net. The next day, he changed to take the dragon chariot, took the overland, and rushed back to Beijing day and night.

However, he said that after the emperor left, the governor of Jiangsu, when he received this strict order, knew that he was an envoy with his head in his hand, and it was difficult to save his life if he did it. Then, according to several witnesses in the Oro Dai who had seen half of the face of the Raider, the portrait of the painter was posted everywhere in Suzhou and even in all prefectures and counties of the province. The meaty man with a face, a pinch of black mole on his right forehead, it can't be wrong. For a time, the townships and counties around Taihu Lake were surrounded by Manchu and Han soldiers, and even flies could not fly out. The governor of Suzhou, the pro-town, ordered the five counties to arrest and investigate secretly, and vowed to arrest and bring the "handful of Mao" to justice.

Although the guest has facial features, he has no name or residence after all, and he doesn't know which way of the devil arched out of the red road, the black road, and the white road, and why he wants to kill the emperor. Precisely:

The wind and waves rise on the flat land of Taihu Lake,

The emperor has a handful of hair.

Whether the rooker can be arrested or not, patient readers will continue to read the next chapter, and it will naturally slowly decompose.
