So, Qianlong took eight people to carry the butter cloth sedan chair forward, out of the heart hall by the Yuehua Gate to get off the sedan chair, through the corridor to the south to the Qianqing Gate. A Gui Jiyun and Liu Tongxun followed on foot. Because of the heavy rain, although only one patio was passed, a few steps to Yongxiang, the hems of the robes and trousers and official boots of the three people were wet by the rain and water. Qianlong stood at the door of the back porch, watched them change their boots, wring out the corners of their robes, and coughed lightly and raised their feet into the hall. Wang Bayan took a few steps ahead and said loudly: "Long live the lord!" Then I saw two people kneeling slightly east of the Sumeru seat, and Hongyang led the kneeling on the ground and bowing three times and nine bows, and shouted:

"Hooray! Banzai! Hooray! ”

For a while, the clothes were squirming, and Qianlong walked calmly to the seat. Ji Yun, Ah Gui, and Liu Tongxun thought for a while, and knelt side by side. Then he heard Hongday say: "The minister Wang Hongday is ordered to bring the Huite Department Taiji minister Amur Sana to introduce him!" "It has been quite a few days since Amur Sana came to Beijing, and this is the first time he has entered the Forbidden City. He seemed to be in a nervous mood, kneeling, his head almost touching the gold bricks. Qianlong was speechless for a while, and the dripping rain and rumbling thunder outside echoed in the vast hall, adding a bit of coercion and ** out of thin air. Amur Sana pressed his hands and ten fingers against the cold ground, and muttered a Mongolian language. Qianlong looked at Hongday.

"He said," he translated, licking his lips, "Heaven has given me the honor of being able to meet the great Bogda Khan in this supreme palace. The sun in the sky is not as brilliant as your brilliance, and the majesty of the Tianshan Mountains is not as broad as your mind! I am a little lord under the rule of Bogda Khan, and I will fly back to my homeland like an eagle, and when I see you again in the future, I will offer you the wine made from the long Hada and Yao Ponds of the Tianshan Mountains, as well as the beautiful snow lotus, to show the heartfelt awe of my tribal subjects! As soon as his translation fell, Amur Sana corrected: "It is admiration—my prince—I say admiration from the bottom of my heart!" ”

Qianlong smiled suddenly: "'Admiration' is 'admiration'!" The meaning is pretty much the same. It's good that you can speak Chinese, how many hours have you saved. Hongtian is fluent in Eastern Mongolian, and Western Mongolian has a slight variation, and I am not very familiar with it. You're nomadic in the Jarr area, aren't you? ”

"Yes!" Amur Sana said suddenly, his Chinese was still fluent, but he was slumped, and his tongue couldn't turn a little whine, "I am the grandson of Razang Khan of the Heshute Division, and my maternal ancestor is Arabutan. After my father's death, my mother, Bottolock, remarried to Huitebu Taiji Weizheng and Shuoqi, and inherited it from my stepfather as Huite Taiji. ”

Ji Yun, who was kneeling on the side, heard this person say that his mother married three husbands, two of whom were brothers, and the "oil bottle" inherited the throne of Taiji Khan, and he said it loudly, and he was righteous and sonorous, swallowing the ground and wanting to laugh and pretending to cough to cover it. Qianlong only glanced at Ji Yun slightly, and said with a smile: "So you understand." From the three generations of the Holy Ancestors, grievances and grievances are old acquaintances, it is not easy to see it today. Don't kneel like that, and the prince will give you a seat and tea. Rise up all three! ”

"Thank you for your grace!" The five men kowtowed in unison and said.

Qianlong took a closer look at Amur Sana, and saw that the prince of Taiji in Western Mongolia was wearing a new Mongolian robe with royal blue embroidered dragon piping, covered with a newly given yellow coat, and stepped on wet high-waisted cowhide boots, aged about forty years old, with a bull-like body tall and strong, a wide black and red face, and a mustache, but the two eyes under the thick eyebrows were smaller, and the whites of the eyes were large and the pupils were small, and they kept blinking, which looked a little strange. Seeing that his legs were slightly looped and his feet were a little inverted, Qianlong smiled and said: "What a majestic Mongolian man, you must be good at riding!" I heard that the four invincible opponents who fought all over Erut could lose to Dawazi? Presumably fell into someone else's trap? ”

"My soldiers are not afraid of death, they are all the vigorous eagles of the Tianshan Mountains!" Amur Sana's black and red face was glowing, staring at Qianlong, and said proudly, "Dawazi's cavalry is forty-two thousand, thirty-four thousand—from the east; His general Mamut led eight thousand - from the west! Hmm-" He compared his hands to a pincer enclosure pattern to show Qianlong, "There are only 30,000 old people, women and children in our tribe, plus the troops!" - You can't fight hard, you can only break through! Qianlong smiled and said: "You escaped from the Naadam Conference, and you saw my Tianshan general with Hurd, saying that you have 30,000 iron cavalry, and asking for troops to attack Junggar, is it a bluff?" ”

Amur Sana smiled treacherously and said, "Sui Hud is a treacherous and cunning fox in the Tianshan Mountains, and he refuses to listen to my lies!" Qianlong also smiled and said: "But you have already shown your heart to the central court, which is also very 'cunning'." You must still think in your heart, it is best to send troops to fight, and if Hurd defeats him, and the court cannot make peace with Lama Darza, you will have a good chance of winning! Amur Sana turned his face childishly and said, "This is my heart, how does the emperor know?" He was so honest and innocent, which made Qianlong laugh. Ji Yun smiled and said, "How can you escape the emperor's thousands of miles of insight with that little 'heart'?" A Gui said: "The rebellion of Jungar has started, the emperor has already counted the temple, and several edicts are strictly ordered to wait and see, how dare Hurd disobey the order!" Only Liu Tongxun's expression was solemn, and he sat silently looking at the rainy and misty Tianjie of the three highnesses from the door.

"It's not easy for you to come thousands of miles to see you this time, and it's not easy to come here after nine deaths." After a few jokes, Qianlong straightened his face and said, "I will return to Beijing at the same time, and I will see you earlier." For more than 30 years since the end of Kangxi, Junggar has been in turmoil, and now he Zhuo is also in chaos, killing his father and mother, killing his brother and killing his brother, fighting for pasture territory, rebelling in the imperial court, and the people are suffering, and he can no longer tolerate and delay......" He sighed, stood up and paced to the door of Qianqing, looking at the pouring rain outside.

The Qianqing gate seat is between the Qianqing Palace and the three major halls of Taihe, Zhonghe, Baohe, from the north to the south meridian axis out until the Zhengyang Gate, all the dragon towers and phoenixes are enveloped in the dark sky, hazy in the rain curtain, a flat Linqing brick square is called "Heavenly Street", has been flooded with two inches of rain. Under the white marble guardrail on the three-story platform around the three major halls, thousands of drainage dragons break through the waterfalls, and the thunder of the rain, emitting a tsunami-like roar, and occasionally the return wind that rolls up the ground pounces on the Danqi, making the corners of Qianlong's robe slightly lifted, and falling down wetly. A few people didn't know what he was thinking, they just exchanged glances, and they didn't say anything. After a long time, he saw Qianlong smile and turned around, and asked: "Ji Yun, Sanche Ling is ambushed, it is the title of the prince, has the prince been awarded?" ”

"Back to the emperor," Ji Yun hurriedly took a step forward and bowed down and said, "The emperor's original decree is to receive eighteen thousand taels of annual salaries from the Li Domain Yuan with three cars. After that, the three departments were re-divided into pastures and pastures, and they played a pleading speech, but the emperor did not send it. The matter was put on hold, and there was no realization. ”

Qianlong said "um" and said: "Amur Sana is in a very dangerous place, and he has traveled thousands of miles to the imperial court, and his sincerity and loyalty are commendable. If the imperial court wants to determine Xinjiang, it also has to rely on the four subjects of Amur Sana, which makes a distinction. Reward—" he paused, "Amur Sana eats the prince's double salary, doubles the existing guard of honor, and rewards four leopard tail guns. ”

The prince of food is called "the prince of the two", the prince who has received this reward since the Qing Dynasty is extremely rare, although it is only 18,000 taels of silver, the ceremonial guard has added a few famous artifacts and magic objects than ordinary princes, the benefit is not big, but it is rare to be this decent, the honor and luxury of heavenly grace rain and dew brocade clothes and jade food! Hongtian suddenly sighed with envy: "Prince Kang of the Kangxi Dynasty, Prince Yi of the Yongzheng Dynasty, what a lot of merit and hard work, and I didn't hear about the increase in the honor guard!" If we have more, I will also send troops to release horses and fight for a bloody gourd, and make a prince of glory and glory......" Seeing Qianlong looking at himself, he stuck out his tongue and made a grimace and smiled. Amur Sana was so excited that his blood was boiling, and he knelt on the ground with a "plop" and said loudly: "God and the Buddha are witnesses, I, Amur Sana, and the slave children on my pasture, I am willing to sprinkle my blood to the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains and maintain the legal system of Bogda Khan**!" If I have the heart to deceive the Holy Lord, let the thunder of heaven beat me into dust! ”

The lightning flashed in the clouds and the dragon and snake, and after a flash, there was a crisp thunder, and the sassy rain seemed to be frightened, and immediately "smashed" down, hitting a large area of dense water and rain foot splash.

"You are the prince, and your son is naturally the son." Qianlong looked back at Amur Sana and said, "With this ambition, he has been the leader of the Qing Dynasty for generations, and he has been the head of the Northwest Taiji King for generations. This glory is not trivial, and I have high hopes for you! ”

Amur Sana trembled with excitement, and his voice was a little out of tune with excitement: "O Bogda Khan, Lord of all things! The faithful sons and daughters of the Huitebu will always remember the grace you have bestowed...... The sun may one day extinguish its flames, the moon may one day lose its light, and the people of the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains will not forget the glory bestowed by the Great Khan! Qianlong nodded with a smile when he heard this, he was deeply moved by these words, and his eyes were shining with tears, and he said after a long time: "Hongtian took Amur Sana Tiren Pavilion to rest, and then returned to the palace after the feast." I'll hand the sign in tomorrow. Bu Li, Bu Zhi, Bu Xin, and several eunuchs were busy preparing oil clothes and oil boots, and commanded the little Sula eunuch to carry the two out of the palace and go to the sedan chair.

Qianlong looked at the rain for a long time and was silent, he seemed to be very thoughtful, his eyes were faint and just distracted, I don't know how long it took, he turned around and asked, "Ah Gui, what do you think of this person?" ”

"The minions talked to him twice, and the two of them also talked to the minions a few times." "There is nothing suspicious about Amur Sana just by 'listening to his words'. But if you 'watch his deeds', he really suffered defeat in Huitelian, and he was desperate to ask for his life. He called Khan in the quasi-tribe, attacked and killed Dash, and coerced his son Nemoku to join him, but he did not follow the law. Dash was kind to him and endured it, which shows that he is ruthless. If the heart is sincere to the imperial court, then five years ago it merged with the three departments of Namerku, Banjul Huit, Shute and Dubert, and it should be repaired and sealed. Until there is no place for the quasi-department, it is difficult to break through and vote. It can be seen that his original heart was not loyal to the court, but to ask the court......" He paused, and because Hurd and Celeng played Chen Amur Sana to Qianlong twice, they were "traitorous", and they were scolded by Qianlong, and they were scolded so much that they were still saying the same, and they were originally preparing to be reprimanded again, but Qianlong was silent, his face was not happy or angry, and he was listening quietly without expression. He was bold and said: "But according to the knowledge of the slaves, the Zhungar tribes and the Hezhuo tribes were in civil strife, and only Amur Sana led the troops to return, at least he still has the word 'court' in his heart. Compared with Sanche Ling, Sanche Ling has settled in Uriya Sutai, and has traveled thousands of miles from the Rakshasa, which seems to be sincere and loyal, saying that Amur Sana's heart is corresponding, and the slave does not dare to believe it - therefore, the slave thinks that this person can be trusted. ”

"Hmm...... Can you ...... not credible," Qianlong repeated, smiling to himself, "You have the guts, and the matter is clear." Sui Hurd and Celeng are two reckless men, and how can they 'use' when they shout in front of so many courtiers that he is 'a bastard and cannot be trusted'? The rebellion between the quasi-department and the Zhuobu is also a 'usable' situation. Instead of letting Dawazi establish himself as king in the western frontier, how can this Amur Sana be used by me? Why did we lose the battle in the ninth year of Yongzheng? In the battle with Tongbo, 60,000 Jiangdong disciples almost never returned! Just because at that time, they were united in their hearts, and our army rushed thousands of miles with food and water, and committed a big taboo in the art of war, 'General will be over'! Now they are in chaos, the north and south of the Tianshan Mountains are in chaos, the three cars are coming back, and Amur Sana is returning, this is really a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, there can be no one step of carelessness, let alone one step wrong, grasp the right time to settle the western frontier in one fell swoop, how dare there be a trace of negligence! I had prepared an expedition of 110,000 horses, including 5,000 men from Amur Sana, and 2,000 men and horses from three chariots, who were not only suitable for geography and climate, but also brave and good at fighting better than the Green Battalion soldiers, and with this vanguard guide, I saw that 50,000 or 60,000 soldiers were enough. With the 'quasi' system and 'quasi', you can calculate how much money you have saved and how much food you have saved! ”

Amur Sana is not credible and can be used, and the three auxiliary ministers see the same. Fearing that Qianlong would be deceived, they originally came with the purpose of "bitter advice". Qianlong's words were not only from a lofty position, but also cautious, clear, meticulous and thorough, and even grasped the reasons for the defeat and defeat of Hetongbo and the current timing and strategy of using troops in great detail. The three of them stared at Qianlong, and they couldn't find a word to answer for a while. Seeing that they were dumbfounded, Qianlong smiled proudly and said, "Ah Gui is in charge of military affairs, and he has drawn up a strategy for transferring troops according to this charter." If you still have anything to think about, you might as well speak up. ”

"Hooray!"

The three ministers knelt down in unison. A Gui Ni played: "The master's temple is exhaustive, and the minions will never be able to reach one!" The minions had already drafted the folds of the deployment of troops, but now they could be burned to the ground. According to the master's will, the music was carefully composed, and the master's imperial review instructions were implemented after the chapter was drafted. With such scheduling, Fu Heng Jinchuan's troops do not have to be withdrawn, and it is just around the corner to capture Jinchuan with all his might. ”

"Fu Heng's soldiers withdraw. If it doesn't work, the end will be 10,000. The Northern Route Army was led by Amur Sana, and the Western Route Army was dominated by the Manchurian Green Battalion and the Han Army's Green Battalion; It is also necessary to set up a preparatory strategy to respond all the way, plus the Tianshan Mountain battalion to respond, so that it is foolproof. Qianlong sighed, "You plan to come out and I'll see it again." At this moment, Tang'er and Mrs. Zhaohui Hailancha are persuading Duoyun that if they can stop and Jinchuan will be ambushed, hundreds of thousands of troops and people in the seven provinces can rest and recuperate, so why must they be killed? ”

Truce the army, support the people, and live for life, this is a grand and righteous reason that no one can refute. Ji Yun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Since there is today, why bother in the first place" The eight words came out for no reason, he immediately realized that this was what the courtiers should not think, it was a guilty thought, he coughed lightly, bowed his head lower, but heard Qianlong say: "Over there, Tiren Pavilion will give a feast, Ah Gui will accompany the feast, Liu Tongxun will go back to rest, Ji Yun will stay, I have something to explain." ”

"Yes!" Ji Yun bowed his head and kowtowed, "Minister-obey!" ”

Liu Tongxun and Ah Gui retreated, and the huge Qianqingmen Pavilion became even more empty and silent. The rain outside was a little lighter, but it seemed to be windy, as if it was overwhelmed by the palace wall, sometimes sweeping the ground, sometimes rushing on the danqi, hitting the large glass window with water droplets dripping down. Qianlong seemed to be a little distracted, stunned for a while, and said to Ji Yun, who was kneeling: "Get up, talk in the pavilion." Ji Yun was a little confused, got up and followed Qianlong into the West Pavilion. At a glance, I saw a plain rice paper on the front file of the big kang, and a few lines of words had been written, and the title of the title was "Shu Sadness Fu", and when I was in my heart, I knew that I wanted to write a eulogy for the queen, but I pretended not to know, and bowed my head to listen to Qianlong say: "After the death of the queen, my heart has been empty, and I can't settle down in a trance. Although I gave her the nickname of 'filial piety', it was taken from justice, and she really deserved these two words, as for personal feelings, Kunde Yumao, it is not a nickname that can be limited. I really want to make a message to mourn her, after all, the official affairs are tedious, the writing is not good, leaving you is to ask you to ghostwrite for me this wish......" Ji Yun bowed and said: "This is the emperor's special trust and kindness, the minister's grass and grass are ugly, the words are simple, although they are barely enough, fear is not competent." ”

"To talk about such a few things," Qianlong ignored Ji Yun's humble resignation, waved his hand and said, "She was born in a famous lady, and I was assigned to follow when I was studying in the mansion. Stay to the queen, filial piety to the top, love to the bottom, diligent and thrifty palace affairs, dignified and dignified, no jealousy, give birth to two elder brothers have passed away one after another, endure the pain in my heart to assist in my harem, and treat the rest of the elder brothers as if they were their own ...... The loving couple is not over, she goes, and the bitterness in my heart has nowhere to tell......" Speaking of emotion, Qianlong felt sad in his heart, tears had already welled up in his eyes, and he choked up and said, "You draft it, I will consider it again." After sitting on the chair and eating tea, Ji Yun read the opening sentence of "Shu Sadness":

Why is "Yi" the first to come? Why is "Poetry" the first "Guan Ju"? However, at the beginning of humanity, the country is in harmony. Nian Yi's work match, twenty-two years and Yu Si -

There are a few words below, but some of them are smeared and can't be seen clearly, Ji Yun is driving day and night, Qianlong is happy, almost everything is seen and heard, there are poems, sometimes there are poems, and sometimes there are more than a dozen poems, but they are particularly particular about flat adhesion, and the language is extremely verifiable and canonical stories - his poem "skill" Ji Yun is numb to comprehend, and he has a headache of praise, and he has to press how much slander in his heart, and he has to find a car of words "smooth and holy arms", which is really a miserable thing. This "Fu" is such a set of heads, and if you continue to do it with this meaning, you can't describe the "sadness" anyway - probably because of this reason, you are looking for your own knife, right? Thinking about it like this, Ji Yun already had an idea, and said solemnly: "The emperor's beginning is magnificent, and the momentum of the majestic honor is verdant, and he is deeply endowed with samadhi. The ministers follow this outline to make intentions and make a brief description, what does the emperor think? Seeing Qianlong's head, because he was holding the pen and ink, he used another piece of rice paper to write:

Once the pain is eternal, it is unknown through yin and yang. In the past, the emperor's life was puppeted, and he used Lund to be famous. It is better to give and corpse algae, and set the ceremony in Weibin. Cultivating virtue in the green palace is to treat one and be gentle. Even if the dregs and chaff have not been experienced, they are really happy and bitter. It is its positive position Kunning, Kezan Qianqing. The warmth and clarity of Feng Ci Yan is the ritual type of Jiuqing. thrifty at home, starting to reel products and raising cocoons; Being diligent in the state is also like rain and sunshine.

Then the pen turned, and the tone became unusually soft and graceful:

The life is not severe, and the pain is abandoned. caused internal injuries, and then Mi'er passed away......

Qianlong had already paced over at this moment, and saw Ji Yun's divine form, frowning and frowning, and moving his pen like the wind, and his lines like clouds and water:

Cut from the untraceable, on the life is set here!

It is difficult to get rid of the shadow and form, and it is like a loss.

Thinking about the concubines, Gu He Jingxi is pitiful and weak.

Looking at Xiangpu Xi, he first begged for the lack of magic in the North Sea......

Seeing the new and increasing sorrow, old things and reminiscing about the beginning. Qi is sometimes temporary, and the spin touches and is broken! Believe that life is like a dream, and everything is empty!

wrote, Ji Yun was already in tears. Qianlong shook his hand to pass the pen, and then waved it:

Alack! Sadness and sadness, parting, losing the inner position, who is with it? …… Entering the pepper room is lonely, and the phoenix is empty! The spring breeze and autumn moon are all here, and when will the summer and winter nights be restored?

He threw away his pen and sat back in his chair with this "Narrative of Sorrow" in both hands, sighing and sighing while examining it. Ji Yun was originally forgetful of writing, for fear that there would be inconsistencies in the language, so at this moment, his heart was relieved, and he wiped the sweat on his nose and cheeks and comforted: "After the emperor changed the decision, he made an inscription and hid it in the Yuling tomb." If the mother knows underground, she must be inspired to comfort her soul. ”

Qianlong put down the article, nodded and said, "I hope so......" He frowned and pondered and said, "Yuling is in Shengshuiyu, Yongzheng Ye has seen it when he is high, and the feng shui is excellent." It's just that the dragon head in front of the tomb is a little low, and Gao Qizhuo said that the Jiacheng Bailou should be built higher, and the silver for the fixed items is not enough. From the expenses of the inner court, I am afraid that this southern tour has already cost a lot. If I draw silver again, I am afraid that I will be wronged by the palace family, and the queen mother will not like it. I was a little hesitant in my heart, where would I pay another three or five million taels of silver? Ji Yun is now in charge of the Ministry of Rites, and then he knew that Qianlong did not only keep himself to write this article, thought about it, and said: "There are two ways for the emperor to decide, one is to borrow it from the repair fee of the Old Summer Palace, and the inner court will pay it back when he has money." The second is that Wang Kangwang's case came out, and I am afraid that there are not a few confiscated silver taels, which can be temporarily not put into the treasury for use, and it is also a law to set up evidence for the household department to write off in the future. "No, set an example of this rule, and it will be difficult for the children and grandchildren to follow it." Qianlong shook his head and said, "All the silver comes from taxes, and the treasury is insufficient, and it has to be sent to the people in a clever way." Hongyang said a method, Zhengyangmen, Chongwenmen, Xuanwumen, and tariffs have always been under the control of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and in the past, officials and wealthy businessmen took a cut according to the rules. It's just that the abolition has been slack for a long time, and the officials are afraid of offending the foreign officials, which has become a false story. It is better to send a reliable person to rectify the jurisdiction, and once the Beijing division is more rigorous, the illegal businessmen are frightened; Second, there are some revenues, and the inner court of the household department is divided into three or seven cases, and the expenses of the inner court of the garden are not too tight. ”

"Your Majesty, this is indeed a good policy." Ji Yun listened to it and already knew it in his heart, but every year there are thousands of officials who go to Beijing to pay tribute and meet Jin, and they have to pass the test to collect money, not only is it not decent, but it is also a matter of how many people to offend people, for fear that Qianlong will say "You come to the last Chen", and hurriedly said, "The minister thinks that this is a suggestion to be loyal to the prince and the country, and the financial talk is still a small supplement, and the number of gifts and silver brought by the officials in Beijing is also understood, so he does not dare to be too conspicuous and ostentatious through the market, and he does not dare to bring too much silver, How much less is there to drill the dark room of the campfly. Therefore, this suggestion is really a good example of fairness and public and private interests, please ask the emperor to implement it according to the instructions of the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of Internal Affairs! ”

Qianlong smiled when he heard this, and said: "He is afraid of offending people, so he specially said, 'Don't say it's my suggestion', and you are also afraid - it seems that it is really bad to offend people." This is the original system, there is no need to issue any edicts, find a proper person to introduce, and only need to rectify when you take office. This is a small item, not in the serious income and expenditure number, and it is not very fair and honest when it comes to the original heart, just do it without saying anything. In case there is a drawback, the imperial historians come out to stop and speak, but it will not be. He stood up, "It's still early, you accompany me to the beekeeper trap!" ”

Tang'er, Ding E'er and Qiaoyun were separated by the rain in the beekeeping channel, and they were still painstakingly grinding with the clouds to "conditions".

This place has been a place where the key criminals of the Qin case were imprisoned since the former Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty followed the Ming system, and all the important members of the court who were tried in Dali Temple during the Shunzhi Emperor were all awaiting trial here; In the last years of Kangxi, it was used to imprison the prince, so it is also called "Brother Luotang Chicken"; In the last years of Yongzheng, the old rules were restored. The high walls and big houses are connected one after another, the old houses are staggered with tiles, the patio is narrow and the lanes are narrow, although it has been repaired several times, the pattern that was built at the beginning is still very gloomy and gloomy.

Tang'er decided that "women love Xiaoyi'er and be gentle", and she and E'er Qiaoyun have a meeting gift. In addition to gold, silver and other jewelry, there are also two gold-plated pocket watches, French perfume and rouge lipstick, and colored satin rulers. Ding E'er thought that she couldn't compare with Tang'er, so she carefully embroidered a pair of betel nut purses. Qiaoyun was ingenious, asked the prison woman to measure the size, and tied the flowers with fine needles and dense threads to sturdy two pairs of mud embroidered shoes. The three of them brought a lot of things and piled them up on the table, but there were all kinds of gold and greenery all over the house. Duoyun naturally knew their intentions, let them greet and laugh, not be stunned or disliked, and never take it seriously. After laughing for a while, Tang'er saw that the sky was cloudy, and said with a smile: "Ke Ke'er, let's come to see a girl, Ke Ke'er will rain!" In the words of the Han people, 'people don't stay guests, and the sky stays guests', but it's not our fate! ”

"That's the case," Ding E'er said with a smile: "I came to tell the family that I had dinner with the girls here, and asked them to send peaches, cherries, and lychees from Lingnan, all of which are fresh." "There are also fresh lotus roots, jujube paste and bean paste dumplings, and realgar wine, I also have them." Tang'er smiled happily, tried her best to adjust the atmosphere and said, "Xionghuang wards off evil spirits, it's almost the Dragon Boat Festival, let's wash the disaster for the girl first." Seeing the rain falling, he urged his family to quickly bring food, and was busy setting up tables and stools, so he was busy.

Duoyun's injuries have been completely healed, but his face is still a little pale, listening to their chatter and laughter, for a while absent-mindedly looking at the misty rain outside to talk to a word or two, for a while casually looking at those gifts, picking up shoes and carefully examining them repeatedly, and saying: "Ah! These shoes are so well made! Who did it? ”

"It's my ......," Qiao Yun blushed and lowered his head and whispered.

"Such beautiful flowers, such delicate needlework, we people there can't make it." Duoyun admired the shoes and turned his face to look at Qiaoyun, "You don't seem to like to talk." ”

"I'm ......" Qiaoyun glanced at Duoyun, "I'm a little afraid of you......"

One sentence made Tang Er'er laugh. E'er said: "The Central Plains woman is well tied with flowers, but she is not as heroic as the daughter of the collector." I often think that the girl is more decent than the Mulan in that play! How interesting it would be when we could do that! Tang'er smiled: "Since the girl looks good, she will wear it." Your physique and appearance are matched with Han costumes, and you are better than others! ”

"I'm afraid my cowhide boots will work better. Putting on these shoes to fight in the meadow and mire, can't you? Duoyun also smiled and said unhurriedly, "The things you gave me are very good, we Jinchuan people have never accepted gifts from friends, and we can't be considered friends now." I don't think you're here to talk about needlework or some kind of 'play', right? ”

A few words came out, and the smiles on the faces of the three women froze. The heavy thunder and rolling rain are miserable, the eaves in the courtyard are like a note, and the sound of banging is endless, but it seems that the house is more quiet and quiet. Tang'er sighed: "It's reasonable for Sister Duo to think so. We sat on the ground together, in harmony and peace, and men were facing each other on the battlefield. I don't know about the men, but I don't think you're a bad person, Sister Duo, and the three of us aren't your enemies. Why bother? Kill and kill and behead and spill blood, and in the end it is women, old people and children who suffer! What fault did they make to suffer such a calamity and such a sin? ”

"This is for Emperor Qianlong. I've already asked. Duoyun said word by word, her face was as calm as a child who had just woken up, "We Jinchuan people never thought of attacking Chengdu in the past, just guarding our hometown, but the imperial court sent heavy troops again and again to encircle us, strangle us, and bully us!" Her voice sounded like a metallic trill, and the hearts of the three women fell straight to the ground, "There is a saying among the Han people, 'Death by starvation is very small, and loss of discipline is very great.'" I think this is to say that human dignity is more important than life. The Great Khan wants us to live in humiliation, and the old people, women and children of Jinchuan have no choice but to fight to the death! ”

The three women all felt that this was extremely difficult to answer, she refused to be "humiliated", and what Qianlong wanted was Sha Luoben himself to "surrender face to face", how to deal with this? Tang'er suddenly smiled and said, "There are a lot of words of the Han people, some of them are right, and some of them are completely wrong. I think, being a king has the truth of a king, being a courtier has the duty of a courtier, Jin Chuan harbored that Ban Luo until he died, this is the first thing to do, and then he was recruited by the imperial court. This is the source of the incident...... "She felt that there was a truth floating in her heart like a fluttering silk, but she just couldn't catch the truth. E'er next to her was moved by these words, and suddenly opened her mouth and asked, "Sister Duo, do you have a son?" ”

"Yes." Duoyun looked at E'er in surprise.

"Obedient?"

"Of course, listen to his father, and listen to me."

"Have you ever been naughty and done something wrong?"

Duoyun smiled suddenly: "It's really strange what you asked, all children in the world are the same, right?" ”

"I have a child," said E'er with a smile, "and I won't be on the house for three days." When he hated, he slapped him with a bamboo board, punished him for kneeling, he had to kneel, beat him, and he also screamed and cried, but he couldn't get up, let alone fight back - because I was fucking! ”

"Of course the child can't hit the mother!"

"This is the rule," E'er's words were full of maternal pride, and she said it with confidence, "whether you hit right or wrong, whether you are wronged or not, if you ask him to kneel, he can't stand, God has set such a system." It's not humiliation. I haven't heard of this being a shame. On the contrary, people look at him as a filial son, respect him, love him, and care for him. Of course, sometimes there are occasional mistakes, the more the son is at this time, the more filial piety and politeness, the more he can endure grievances without losing respect, this is the husband, the material that has a good future! If someone in your clan slaps his mother and father, how should he be punished? She asked suddenly.

Duoyun was already stunned, she had already captured the idea and intention of Ding E'er's words, but she couldn't find a reason to block the mouth of this woman's hanging river for a while, Leng Ding's question was forced to come up, but she held back her idea in a hurry, and asked: "Parents want to kill their son, can't they fight back?" ”

"That's not going to work either." Qiao Yun said decisively on the side, "We are tenant families, and our ancestors have also read a few lines of books: the king calls the minister to die, the minister does not die for disloyalty, the father calls the son to die, and the son does not die for unfilial piety!" Tang'er said: "If you want to kill all the people of Jinchuan and ask them to beat them, why should the emperor treat your injuries and send them to Beijing safely?" Why do the three of us come here to chew our tongues? If you don't fight, you can't get acquainted, fight a dozen, reconcile in two, everyone has their own dignity, and they are a family with Hemeimei, what's wrong? ”

Duoyun lowered her head by these women's clever words, and in a flash of lightning and thunder, she straightened her chest again, and said: "You said 'decent', how much dignity we have left to the court!" But you want my husband to bind himself with yellow silk, and go to your husband and bow down and prostrate to plead, and say that it is not a shame! ”

"Good girl, you're wrong." Tang'er sighed and laughed, "It's not kneeling to my husband, it's kneeling to Bogda Khan!" In the past, my man and your man were brothers of the same generation. Her voice was like a low stream trickling, "My man, their man, is the Mongolian prince Tibet**, the prince of the court and the prince of Shuo, who sees that Qianlong does not kneel?" Qiao Yun said with a smile: "You said that Huang Aya was tied, you asked her-" She pointed to E'er, "Her husband was escorted from Texas to Beijing, and my man was escorted from Nanjing to Beijing, wearing a flail for thousands of miles all the way, and wearing Huang Aya on his head!" I said it loudly, ordinary people don't have this reason and don't have this position, and they haven't heard of this being called 'shame'! Only then did Tang'er understand the deep meaning of Ah Gui's choice of the three of them, what they wanted, and they were so thorough that they were seamless!

Duoyun sat back silently. Qianlong allowed himself several times, recuperating and treating his injuries all the way, and it was clear that he wanted to persuade Jinchuan to surrender, so he treated the enemy prisoners well, and Jinchuan did not have this rule, she couldn't help but feel something. The husband set up the enemy twice, and he also had the meaning of making peace with the imperial court, and peace talks between the two sides were not something that could not be done. In fact, what is at issue is the dignity and decency of the people of Jinchuan. Several women said the same thing, from Chengdu through Hankou to Nanjing and Yangzhou, and then to Beijing, both saw the world and saw what they saw and heard, and what the three of them said was also the truth, Bogda Khan - God gave him great authority and majesty, and the people of the world also recognized this "truth", what else to say? She was aggrieved, bitter, unwilling to do this, and suspected that she was disappointed by her husband's entrustment, and was afraid of being criticized by the tribesmen in the clan. She sighed deeply, and just as she was about to do something, she heard the sound of footsteps wading through the water outside, and when she raised her eyes, Qianlong had already appeared at the door.

"Well, it seems that the conversation is speculative, like family. Well, there's so much more! Qianlong came in on Wang Bayi's back, lost his oil coat at the door, turned back to Ji Yun and smiled: "Xiaolan, 'a mouthful of fresh, race immortals' - so many fresh things, you haven't eaten, just take their cheap dip!" ”

The three of Tang'er had already kowtowed to the ground, and Duoyun was at a loss, and when he saw that everyone was generous and saluted without hindrance, he knelt on the ground. Tang'er saw that she was willing to bend her waist and salute, put down more than half of her heart, waited for Qianlong to sit in the middle, and said with a smile: "The day is hot, and the day is long, and I am so idle in the house that I panicked, so I asked Qiaoyun and E'er to come and talk to Duo Meizi, and the master will come ...... if I don't prevent it" pointed and said, "This is Zhaohui's family, this is Hailancha's family." I'm afraid the master may not have seen it! ”

"Good, good!" Qianlong smiled and picked up a lychee, but did not peel the shell, put it in the palm of his hand to watch the dark purple shell with fruit frost, looked at the two and said, "It's all good!" One accompanied her husband for hundreds of miles, wearing a flail and a lock to come to Beijing to go to the disaster; A filial father and husband in prison who have spent the same hardships are-" He wanted to say the word "Jielie", but Duoyun was the sister-in-law who helped his brother kill his brother, and Ding E'er was remarried, so he couldn't use the word "jie", so he swallowed it and changed his name, "It's the wife of martyrdom." I've read it all, it's like a legendary novel! Get up. There is no need to be formal on this occasion today, such a small house makes trouble, trouble! ”

So everyone got up and thanked him. The room is too narrow, and there is a small table, Bu Li and Wang Bayi, Bu Xin, and Bu Zhi are standing in the corners, Qianlong is in the center, Ji Yun sits sideways to accompany each other, the door is cold, the rain is falling, it is E'er and Qiaoyun sitting, and the east side is Duoyun and Tang'er and Qianlong diagonally opposite, the house is already full of people, but they are all restrained and dare not eat recklessly. Qianlong glanced at Tang'er and said, "Tang'er hasn't seen him for many days. It's difficult for you, your husband is out to send troops and horses, and your son is also out of town to contribute to the court, and you still come to persuade Duoyun on my behalf, it's not easy inside and out. ”

"The emperor praises him, but the slave doesn't dare to be it!" Tang'er saw Qianlong staring at him, his eyes were full of tenderness and softness, and there was a little caressing of the past, his heart was hot, and he whispered, "Fu Heng sent a letter, saying that Fukangan has been promoted to viscount, and Emperor Detian's grace is high, and I can't repay it even if I am broken." Duoyun, we are very close to each other, and we are speculative ...... just talking about it," because Fang Cai's words were said in common words, "We women can't do big things, and we can't compare to Duoyun's sister, who is a woman." The emperor is here, my heart is more relaxed, what else do Duoyun have to say, play the emperor, just listen to the holy judgment. ”

"I thought carefully about the words of the three ladies," Duoyun raised his head and said calmly, "Since the people of Jinchuan are under the legal system of Bogda Khan, they should fulfill the dignity of the emperor's etiquette and religion, and I can persuade Sha Luo to go to Fu Heng's camp to surrender to Cheng and lose ......his loyalty," she nodded with a smile when she saw Qianlong, and said, "In this way, not only will the entire Jinchuan clan be safe, but the emperor's road to Tibet can also be protected by our clan." Alas...... Even if you are a little wronged, for the sake of the long-term overall situation, you should still do this. But I still have some conditions, which I have repeatedly mentioned when I parted with Sha Luoben, and I want to ask the Great Emperor to give special favors......"

Qianlong looked at her and was speechless.

"Officers and soldiers attacked twice, and there were casualties and prisoners of war on both sides." Duoyun said, "This is a war, there must be a last resort, after the loss of sincerity, please ask the emperor to order the release of Jinchuan prisoners of war, open all kinds of transportation, supply grain, ghee, salt, medicine." In this way, Jinchuan's livelihood can be restored. ”

"Hmm."

"Jin Chuan resisted the heavenly soldiers twice, but he had no choice but to do so. Losing sincerity is for reconciliation, so the court should not pursue the past. ”

"Hmm...... Of course, how can I regret it? ”

"I believe that Bogda Khan, who is the supreme ruler of all directions, would not tell a lie, lure my husband to the camp, and then harm his life and dignity."

Qianlong was stunned for a moment, then looked up to the sky and laughed: "Oh! And this concern? Ji Yun also smiled and said, "The emperor is the immortal holy monarch, the people of the world all rely on the emperor's grace, rain and dew to live and nurture, the authority is in the four seas, Ze is outside the Hua, the wind is throughout the ancient and modern, and the benevolence is all over Liuhe. Unexpectedly, as soon as he spoke, Duoyun had come back coldly: "That's not always the case." I came to the Central Plains, and I often heard people say that the emperor rectified the rule of officials, but I used gold to dredge the yamen to buy officials and buy certificates, no one does not accept money, there is nothing that cannot be done, it can be seen that you people are below, and you say that you are loyal to the emperor, or in your heart it is another kind of 'truth' - Fu Heng wants to refuse to listen to the emperor and kill my husband to ask you for credit? ”
