Ji Yun and Fan Shijie didn't know how long it took for their faces to regain their blood. Ji Yun's top talent, originally suspected that the two royal brothers and brothers were making a bitter trick to "make a show" for the officials of the world, seeing that Hongtian was beaten to the point of losing his soul, and Qianlong was so sad and depressed, it was really difficult to deceive in this way, only to know that Qianlong was true in the fake, and he was angry, frustrated, tired, anxious and helpless, and he must not "pretend" to be so realistic. Thinking about Qianlong's heroic heart and the strong heart of the emperor through the ages, with such a strong national strength, he could not calm the border chaos on the outside, and there was no way to curb the corruption of officialdom on the inside, and he was so tired that he was still leaking from all sides, and he was really sad for Qianlong...... Seeing Qianlong hanging his head and crying, Ji Yun coughed lightly and said: "The emperor is angry today, almost frightening the ministers...... The lord is worried about the humiliation of the minister, and the lord humiliates the death of the minister-the minister asks himself, he really can't live with the grace of the lord's high hopes......" said and wiped away tears. This is the "minister should be punished" first stood at the point, and then bent his heart to comfort Qianlong, "The minister follows the emperor day and night, hearing and seeing, the emperor is diligent and loves the people, and the emperor is a true thing." Thinking carefully about the dragon's heart is correct, it is the icing on the cake and the lack of flowers, not the worries of the world that cause labor and sorrow......"

"Well, the icing on the cake?" Qianlong was stunned for a moment and asked.

"It's the icing on the cake." Ji Yun settled down for a moment, and said slowly, "Xi Qi Jinggong visited Yanzi at night. Yan Zi was shocked and asked: 'Has the palace changed?' Is the minister rebellious? Do the princes have any chaos? He asked all the words of sorrow and poverty, and there was no change in the palace, no rebellion among the ministers, no chaos among the princes, and no great worries about the country. The country's annual income is 20 million, which has never existed since ancient times, and it is not accumulated, and the world is exempted from money and grain every three years, and the people are full, which is two. Although there is the rebellion of Jinchuan and the civil strife in Zhungar, because he does not live in the situation, he has not disturbed the world. Yuyun: Those who have these three and are not satisfied are the lords of the saints; The Lord of Peace, who is content and keeper; The one who has one of them and is undoubtedly the lord of mediocrity. The emperor is still diligent and enterprising, thinking to himself why is the same master? Isn't this the icing on the cake for seeking perfection and blame? ”

Qianlong's color was mellow, and he sipped tea and groaned silently. Although Fan Shijie is uninhibited, he is also a Jinshi, and he is unheard of when he listens, and he is worried in his heart: people say that Ji Yun has no books and never forgets them, and he is really a man in his name. Seeing that it was a conversation, he hurriedly interjected and said, "It's true that Ji Yun said it." Twenty million pieces of silver is a surplus. This is not comparable with the first time of the Holy Grandfather's administration, the Holy Grandfather's donation income was only 20 million, and in his later years, he was tired of government, and there were only 7 million in the treasury, which was not worth the silver in the current treasury of a medium-sized province. The Holy Ancestor toured south, and the gate of the Mochou Lake Palace was to be repaired, and the household department could not allocate the money. Your Majesty, there was no seven-story pagoda behind the palace. The fifth master came to Yangzhou and said that this palace is a temple feng shui, and a tower town must be built. On a meeting of more than a dozen local gentry in Yangzhou, the pagoda was erected overnight, and even the chalky powder was collected, the chalk powder was cleaned, the field was cleaned up, the trees were planted, and the grass was planted. ”

"Really?" Qianlong asked in surprise, he had completely returned to normal, "I didn't see it, I thought it was the old relics stupa here." He waved his hand and motioned to Ji Yun, "You still talk." ”

Ji Yunwei bowed and said: "Throughout the history of the Twenty-fourth Dynasty, there are two quick ways to lose the country: one is that the labor is too heavy, and the people are unbearable, such as Qin's repair of the Great Wall, Wang Mang's restoration of the well field, and the opening of the canal by Emperor Yang of Sui. Second, the princes were divided into countries and the great powers stood side by side, and the central government could not control them, such as the Xirong Rebellion in the Zhou Dynasty, the Dong Zhuo Rebellion in the Eastern Han Dynasty, the Eight Kings Rebellion in the Western Jin Dynasty, and the Rebellion in the Later Tang Dynasty. As for the corruption of the rulers, as far as it is concerned, it is a common disease of all dynasties. There is no tyranny, no external trouble, no princes divide the land, and the inappeasement of the officials is also a stubborn disease, but a remission disease. If you do it vigorously, it will be better, a little slack, and it will still be cute, and it will be slightly better if it is rectified, and then it will be corrupted—until it is out of control, and there will be something that cannot be spoken......" He sighed, licked his lips, and said no more.

"What Ji Yun said is very true," Qianlong bit his lower lip and pondered, and said, "The Eastern Han Dynasty, the Northern and Southern Song Dynasties, and the Ming Dynasty since Yongle, the rule of officials has been corrupted, and it has also lasted for a hundred years. This is thanks to the sage Master, who made rituals and music to restrain people's hearts, not to be invaded by foreign powers, not to be forced by hunger and cold, and not to take risks. There is no doubt that it is a chronic disease. But it's the source of chaos - you didn't mention this Ji Yun. It's like quenching thirst and getting into the bone marrow, and the country can't afford to stop a little wind and grass when it's bad. A disaster or famine, a criminal case that is improper, a clan that is not in harmony with the fire, or harassed by foreign gangsters, or a cult advocating chaos, and who dare not see the fire when the firewood is dry everywhere -- the officials are not afraid of these things. Therefore, to rectify the rule of officials is to extinguish the source of chaos, how can we take it lightly? ”

Fan Shijie said with a smile: "This emperor is calm, the ministers are brave and courageous, the fifth master behaves absurdly, and all major matters are carefully examined, the fifth master never relies on power to act as a prestige, never accepts money from foreign officials, there is no thing that violates etiquette and cannot be done, and the prestige of the ministers who comfort the public in the courtiers is still good." It's just that the strategy of the five masters is not advisable, and the emperor should not condemn it too much, and it is enough to be decent and teach a strict lesson behind his back. It is what the fifth master just said, Xinjiang should set up a provincial official**, who can be restrained and appeased at any time, and it seems that this innovative view is very desirable. The minister thought, if the Holy Ancestor set up a province in Ili or Urumqi in the later years of the Holy Ancestor or the early year of Yongzheng, and the governor controlled the provinces, prefectures, prefectures, and counties at all levels, and took measures according to the situation anytime and anywhere, I am afraid that the Zhungar rebellion would have subsided at the beginning of the turmoil. ”

"The hateful thing about Hongsun is not that he is incompetent." Qianlong sighed and said, "He used 'incompetence' to cover Tao Hui and hid to the side to play Tai Chi." For example, if he helps me to inspect the world as the prime minister, prince and minister, who can play this role? I feel sad in my heart, and it's not just for him...... Yesterday, Zhang Tingyu went...... Beijing Shi Yizhi also ...... went. I couldn't sleep all night......"

Shi Yizhi and Sun Jiagan are called "double loyalty and double straightness", and it is reasonable for Qianlong to mourn. Zhang Tingyu was completely out of favor in his later years, and he ordered Zhu to criticize a reprimand on three or five days, and was trained by Qianlong to be full of bad luck, how could he be "sleepless all night" because of his death? Ji Yun and Fan Shijie both widened their eyes, but seeing that Qianlong's face was not very sad, his brows were slightly locked as if he was thinking deeply, only his left hand was rubbing the tip of his braid and trembling slightly, and a pair of black eyes that were almost invisible looked at the window lattice and were silent. Ji Yun and Fan Shijie couldn't help but quietly exchange glances: this master's mind is really getting harder and harder to guess......

"I am not the lord of suspicion, and you should not be a speculative minister." Qianlong's words were as sharp as penetrating their hearts, but the tone was as smooth as a water, "Ah Gui found out from the Beijing Emperor Shichen that Zhang Tingyu Kangxi wrote the "Three Elders and Five Watches" in the 51st year, and I criticized him in recent years, and the words he said more than 30 years ago! I wept after watching it - how many people can be perfect since ancient times? Why do you want to blame Zhang Tingyu alone? Some people are not righteous people at all, so they don't talk about him - like Xu Qianxue, Qian Mingshi, Nian Qianyao and the like. Some people, such as Lu Longqi, Tang Ruowang, and Yao Di, can never be the same; There are also people like Guo Xiu, who were originally corrupt officials, but once they were shocked, Qing Shui Xitang accused the heavens and became a generation of famous ministers, which is an outlier. Zhang Tingyu was respectful and sincere all his life, and he was able to bow and work hard, seeking fame and chattering in his later years, which provoked my disgust and repeated strict reprimands. I still don't think I should be. But looking back on his life, 40 years of hard work as a prime minister, and his hard work and sweat in today's prosperous world. I sighed again and again...... His list of belongings, except for the Imperial Zhuangyuan Mansion with almost no long remains, I don't know how much better than today's officials! ”

He was guilty of himself. Ji Yun and Fan Shijie had both echoed Qianlong when he attacked Zhang Tingyu, and they were also uneasy, but they couldn't find words to comfort them for a while. After a long time, Ji Yuncai said: "The emperor said, benevolence and righteousness can lead to the sky!" Zhang Tingyu knows underground, and he should be ashamed of his knowledge, and he will regret it. Qianlong took a deep breath and sighed: "Some things in the world are really strange. For example, the Xuande furnace in the Heart Cultivation Palace, it is not unusual to see it every day and use it for incense. After rewarding the red-haired national tribute envoy, knowing that it would never return to the day, I could no longer see it touch it and play with it, and suddenly I felt that it had become a rare thing, the texture, the treasure color, the exquisite structure of the delicate carving, and then finding another one, it was more difficult than climbing to the sky - Zhang Tingyu was the first master I knew, since he was a child, he rode on his neck to pick dates, I stabbed his fingers and bleed, he panicked and kneaded and massaged and sucked with his mouth...... Teach me to write with his hands, his beard itches my cheeks, smearing his face with ink, and looking at me with a smile on his face...... In the blink of an eye, it has become like a smoke of the past......" He seemed to be sad and happy, and seemed to be a little self-deprecating, and in an instant, he returned to solemnity, "Sun Jiagan passed away, the court lost a righteous person, and Shi Yizhi went to be an upright minister." The names of the two of them have not yet been decided. Zhang Tingyu actually doesn't hide his flaws, and he also has to set a good name. I'm afraid it's no better than you Ji Xiaolan to do this, right? It was proposed to be sealed immediately, and there was no need to consult the Minister of Military Aircraft. ”

"Jiagan and Yizhi can both be called a 'clear' word - to avoid far away injustice and say clear, clean oneself and obey the law and say clear. Both deserve it. Ji Yun said without thinking, "Good and honest self-restraint, strict implementation of the system and festivals, hardships and dangers do not take away the festival - according to this, Sun Jiagan can be called 'Qingjie'; "Let's talk about it, look at Qianlong.

"Two nicknames are allowed. However, 'Qingzhi' and 'Yizhi' are serious. Transferred over, Sun Jiagan is straightforward, Shi Yi is straightforward and Qingjie - it seems to be better this way. Qianlong said, and wrote with cinnabar, "What about Zhang Tingyu?" How about 'Wenhe'? "Good! The Lord is holy and worthy of heaven! Ji Yun bowed down and said with a smile, "Zhang Tingyu deserves a text, and he can make peace with the virtuous; It is not rigid or soft, and it is soft and far can be called the sum. It's 'Wenhe' good! ”

Although Qianlong was erudite and knowledgeable, Yu Zhenfa actually knew a little about it, and said casually, Ji Yunbo cited circumstantial evidence that it was a natural fit, and he couldn't help but be proud in his heart, and said with a smile: "Then it's decided-" He looked at the corner of the hall and rang the bell, "Shalala" rang to hit the point of the beginning, because he stood up, "You guys kneel down!" I stopped by to see Liu Tongxun and taught him that he didn't have to come over to thank him, and he didn't have to worry about the clouds-Liu Yong was on a business trip at my behest! Duoyun was originally temporarily detained, and she didn't want to do anything to her, the two countries did not fight each other, I was ready to see her, and I was released before the battle. Now that you're gone, you're so annoyed that you want to chase Liu Yong back and kill him? After the eighth day of the fourth month, if you want to drive back to Beijing, you two must know in your hearts, Ji Yun wrote to Ah Gui, I will no longer see him in Jiangnan, and I will return to Beijing to meet with Amur Sana. - Go ahead. ”

"Wow-"

Ji Yun and Fan Shijie retreated together. "Dangdang" of the self-striking bell suddenly sounded, Qianlong stretched his body, about to go out of the hall, turned around and saw a high fold on the side of the couch, hesitated and turned back, checked under the lamp, saw Fu Heng's secret fold, carefully cut the fire paint seal, but when the fold was seen, it was the chaos of the fine music back department, Huo Jizhan instigated his brother Poloni to establish himself as a khan. The song is written for a long time, starting from the Huojizhan Zungar Rebellion, escaping with Amur Sana, and returning to Yarkand, together with the uncertain people of the Hui tribe to clamor for the establishment of the Kashgar Khanate, and the various reasons for breaking away from the central territory, it is more than 10,000 words. Qianlong saw the end of the ten lines at a glance, Fu Heng wrote:

The reason for this is all due to accident, and it is the Chechen tribe scattered in the Central Plains Chin Pa Zhuo Sok and his daughter Chin Pa Shama personally told what they had seen and heard. There are rumors in the army that his father and daughter are in custody, and the slave has been sent to Nanjing for personal questioning by the master. The slaves supported Sichuan, and the northwest was chaotic, and Burma also had a disobedient move, every time I thought of this, I was anxious. Although Huo Jizhan is a wolf with ambitions, and his brother Poloni has not yet rebelled, he hopes that the emperor will quickly send envoys to Yarkand to pacify the Hui Ministry, cut off the traitors, and delay the spread of the chaos in the northwest. The southern Xinjiang is settled, and the chaos in the northern corner of the northern Xinjiang is the disease of scabies. The servants pacified Jinchuan, moved the troops, and hit it, but they could be settled with one drum. Linchi Si Zhu Nian En chased over, and the slave was heartbroken......

Qianlong closed the folded book, closed his eyes and breathed a sigh of relief, he had never been to Xinjiang, nor had he been to Western Mongolia. But the geographical situation of southern Xinjiang and northern Xinjiang, I don't know how many times I have been at the mercy of Agui in front of the map. As soon as the Hui Department was in chaos, the northern and southern Xinjiang were separated from the Central Plains, and then the northern Xinjiang was difficult to clean up and spread, and Qinghai and Tibet were also worried...... The magnitude of the matter is incomparable. But Fu Heng is using troops, could it be that the northwest is also using troops at the same time? He thought about it, the construction of the Old Summer Palace was temporarily suspended, and the two roads were more than enough to use military money and food. But what about the generals? What about soldiers? If the two soldiers are unfavorable, or even a game of undefeated and undefeated, what will this "holy bow and wisdom" take to match the Holy Ancestor? And how can you face the courtiers and the people? Qianlong's eyes were gloomy, and he casually drew another fold, but it was the secret fold of the Sichuan general Buda, when he dismantled and read, he wrote a variety of things, from the rainy and dry weather to the acting of the Chengdu opera troupe, a certain Taoist and a certain prefect's in-laws, and the ceremony was not omitted, and the last two pages of the secret fold were told to Fu Heng:

Fu Heng has a good reputation in the Sichuan army recently. The green battalion of the Sichuan army was dispatched to respond to various strategies, and it was the same as Fu Heng's office, but the treatment was different. The green battalion, the green battalion of the Han army is also far away from the garrison and random standby army, and the newly allocated camp tents are all owned by Zhaohui Hailancha and other departments, and the broken accounts and leaky rooms are all used by the Sichuan army. New rice, fresh vegetables, live animals, and old grains and dried vegetables were sent to the Sichuan army. Full of food all day long and slow to enter the army, the arrogant soldiers and fierce generals regard the Sichuan army as contemptible. The minions were very indignant, saying "I beg the holy oracle, and the Fu department will respond, and the Sichuan army will replace it", the minions have been strictly restrained, and dozens of people have been punished with military rods! I also heard that Fu Heng was leisurely playing chess and playing the piano in the department, raising a girl who was a performer for fun, and the slave did not witness it and could not be investigated.

Qianlong pushed the fold aside in distraught, thought about it, pulled it back again, and said with a thick cinnabar criticism:

The one who plays the cloudy, sunny and rainy and dry is. Erzhi said that Fu Heng was playing with his job, what kind of lungs and intestines was it? In Er's opinion, should the dilapidated tents be served with grain and straw to supply the soldiers besieging Jinchuan in the muddy water of yellow soup, and distribute you and others with the new ones? As for the matter of raising a girl, it is to spend the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain, and the girl is already in the boat, and she will be sent to me by Fu Hengdu! Fortunately, I will play it with a secret fold, otherwise, this concert will come, and the edict of locking Naer to enter Beijing to punish the crime will be issued! If there may be such heart-wrenching words again, then the law of torture and killing is being set up for you! Chin this!

He put down his pen and sat stunned, thinking about it carefully, there was nothing pleasant! wanted to be angry, the surrounding eunuchs and palace maids bowed their backs one by one, holding their breath and lowering their eyebrows, but they couldn't find anything to get angry. Because Tie stood up with a blue face and walked out of the hall. Wang Bashi waited for the person he knew well, knowing that he couldn't say a word at this time, and he didn't dare to make a mistake, so he tiptoed into the hall and took a camel-colored woolen robe in his arms, and followed not far away, only five or six steps later.

Out of His Royal Highness, a slight night breeze swept by, and the hot head was much cooler. Qianlong's gaze wandered and glanced in all directions, the bamboo trees were verdant under the faint moonlight, covering the eaves and wings of the corners of the temple, all of which were thinly plated with a layer of silver mist, and the hazy and hazy about it was not very clear, but the blue water in the east to the south of the palace ring was egg-blue in the night, bending and winding and flowing quietly, and it looked particularly clear and pleasant under the moon. Seeing that the lights were bright in the west side hall of the main hall of the harem, Qianlong pointed and asked, "Who lives over there?" ”

As he spoke, the eunuchs breathed a sigh of relief. Wang Ba hurriedly smiled and said, "It's the bedroom of your lord." Master Chen also has a few low-level concubines, and Lord Yan Hong lives in the east. I was fortunate to accompany Lafayette for a long time, and this time it will be fine, it must be in that card......"

"Why are you lighting so many lights when you're not in the yard?" Qianlong said coldly, "It's enough to leave two palace lights, and the rest will be extinguished!" Wang Ba was ashamed and agreed, and went to pass the decree. Qianlong said to Bu Yi again: "You go to Ji Yun to pass the decree and ask him to ask Yue Zhongqi if he is on the road, where are you now?" When Yue Zhongqi arrives, no matter what time it is, immediately report to me that I know—slowly," he pointed to the canal below, and said, "Let the patrol ships on the river withdraw for me, and the fishermen's night fishing boats can't help but come and go!" ”

Bu Yi was just about to leave, *** stopped him, turned his face to Qianlong and said, "Master, the fishing boat came in to check." The warship cannot be withdrawn! He spoke hard, and there was no half of a cliché, and no one in the Manchu Dynasty dared to speak like this in front of Qianlong, but Qianlong didn't care about him, and he actually smiled when he heard it, and said: "Do you listen to Liu Tongxun and refuse to listen to me?" - On this river, a warship ran back and forth, and the scenery was ruined. It's too bad for the scenery, isn't it better than this to swim in a small boat? ”

"Master," *** did not budge, "the warship cannot be withdrawn, and the fishing boat must be inspected." If the scenery is not good, kill the scenery! ”

Qianlong was stunned for a moment before he knew what this Mongolian guard meant, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh: "Okay! Kill the scenery and kill the scenery! He waved his hand and ordered Bu Yi to pass on the decree, and turned around and came towards the queen's bedroom. After walking about half a stone's length, I felt that the place was dark, and when I looked at it, almost all the lights in the Nala Palace were extinguished. Qin Meimei and the other palace people saw him coming, they didn't say anything or make sense, they quietly knelt down and saluted, Qianlong didn't pay attention to it, slowed down his pace and entered the hall, Caiyun and several palace ladies knew that he had arrived, hung up the curtain of the Dongnuan Pavilion lightly, squatted and retreated.

The palace where the queen and the concubines lived were burned with earth dragons. The house full of medicinal incense rushed into the nose as soon as you entered the door, and there were two huge candles lit in the outer main hall, both covered with beige sarongs, and the soft light was slightly red, illuminating the warm and moist hall. Qianlong saw that the queen was sleeping peacefully with her eyes closed on the bright yellow pillow, so he refused to be alarmed, took off the crown and wide belt and coat, handed it to Caiyun, and sat on the edge of the bed gently. Qin Meimei brought the tea, and Qianlong held the bed with one hand, wanting to tuck the quilt for her, but she stopped and only stared blankly.

What a beautiful woman she is! Forty years old, there are almost no wrinkles on his face, a green silk hanging down next to the pillow, there is no fat powder on his beautiful face like Hanyu, the middle of the slightly frowning eyebrows is slightly frowned, the smoke cage generally disappears from thick to light on the sideburns, and the two shallow wine vortices on the lips of Sakura loom with her subtle breathing, as if she is smiling and seems to be speaking softly. Qianlong wanted to kiss her forehead, but stopped again and sat back in the chair, but the queen seemed to be frightened, her body trembled slightly, opened her eyes, and said, "The emperor is here, and you don't call me!" As he spoke, he sat up with his arms propped up.

"You just lie down like this, let's talk, don't get up-" Qianlong hurriedly pressed his hand on her shoulder, and said with a smile, "It's not that there is a will for them, except for the fire and earthquake, as long as you are asleep, you are not allowed to be alarmed!" In the end, the queen still struggled to sit up, and said: "The emperor is sympathetic to me, I don't know anything, it's not for the rules, I've slept for an afternoon, I also want to sit and ......" Several girls hurriedly came over to dress her and change her clothes. Although she doesn't use rouge and lead powder, she is extremely trimmed, looking in the mirror, there is a trace of messy hair, carefully straightened it with her fingers, but she is no longer able to sit opposite each other as she does when the husband and wife meet on weekdays, only crooked on the big pillow with her hands, as if she was afraid that Qianlong would disappear as soon as she closed her eyes. Qianlong sighed in his heart and asked, "What's going on with you?" Although I am busy ahead, my heart has been thinking about it. You don't use much for lunch...... The weather is windy and sunny, and I have to barely struggle to move around. - Is Ye Tianshi's medicine still useful? ”

Queen Fucha smiled, still looking at her husband intently, her voice was low, but it was very clear in the silence: "This morning, I went to the upper reaches of Houtou Mountain for a few steps, where there is a tower and burned three incense sticks...... It was windy outside in the afternoon, so I didn't go out. Mr. Ye did his best to recuperate for me, and there was a system for every hour of the medicine. Once, when he took the medicine a moment early, he reprimanded Bu Zhi and Mei Mei to the point of blood. The eunuchs all said that when he was a doctor, he was like a prince and domineering. When he is not a doctor, he is like a minion, and he kowtows to others. When I'm alone, I'm like a fool, talking to myself, slapping myself in the mouth......" said and couldn't help but cough and laugh slightly.

Qianlong thought that Ye Tianshi's medical skills were superb, and he was crazy, stupid, and demented, so he also smiled and said, "He is a heavenly doctor star!" This is also your creation. You've been getting enough sleep these days, and that's a good sign. Slowly conditioning, naturally day by day, only can not be angry and angry. He has said several times that the root of your illness is in the spleen...... You are bored and anxious, don't bear it, the eunuchs and palace maids in this room just have to take out their anger, and then reward them when they are calm - have you heard it? ”

"Yes......," replied all of them, kneeling down in unison.

The queen smiled: "They are loyal to me, careful and error-free, and beat people plainly—I don't have that much temperament." Ye Tianshi said that it would be okay to recuperate for a year, and the disaster star would pass, and I felt like I could still survive this hurdle...... Don't say I'm sick. Your Majesty, you also have to be careful and less angry. The world is so big, the people are trillions, and there are thousands of officials, how can everything go well and everyone is pleasing to the eye? Fang Cai Yanhong came to ask for peace, she came from Lafayette's side, and heard that Banzai was angry, and the fifth master lost his soul...... own brother, the emperor should save him some decent ......"

"Old Wuta is ridiculous!" Qianlong glanced at everyone in the hall, and personally brought a cup of hot tea to the queen, "Drink it slowly, and burn it carefully...... Brother teaches brother, that's not the usual thing? Rest assured, I know what to expect. You see that he is casual, but he is actually a personal essence. The queen nodded with a smile and said, "What should happen to national affairs must be done according to the rules...... The difference between the royal family and the country is that the family and the country are integrated, and the housework is also a state affair, and the emperor must no longer take care of it properly...... I am his sister-in-law, the punishment is too heavy than the restlessness, and it is not easy to talk when we meet, so I have to spare it! Shrewdness and confusion are all our brothers......" he said and gasped softly. Qianlong waved his hand and ordered everyone to withdraw from the outer hall, approached the queen, half-supported with one hand, and fed her with tea with the other, and whispered: "Tell you, his prince, Dongzhu, and messenger will be removed - don't mumble in your heart, and don't intercede with him - he came to greet you, if you don't have the spirit, you won't receive him, just take out the identity of the queen to reprimand him and comfort him." ”

The queen looked at her husband's eyes, her eyes flashed, and she said: "The civil and military officials are ridiculous, and if they want to use the prince, the emperor thinks it makes sense." It's just that in terms of punishment, the emperor still wants to keep him decent. Qianlong sighed and said, "You are too loyal...... Have you thought about it? Hongday led troops to break into the Old Summer Palace in Beijing and snatched Wei Jia's family in the middle of the night, what a big deal this is! How many people do you want to offend? Light, dark, inside, outside, how many people are disturbed! And it is confusing to be caught in the palace with jealousy and hatred, and when Jing was a child, can the fifth child still live? Moreover, if he does this and reverses the scriptures, future generations will learn from him, and it is inevitable that there will be bandits who have usurped the palace. A punishment was given to him, and the sin of the words 'absurd and hateful' was resolved for him. vent your anger for the villain, so as not to hate him; Set an example to the hundred officials, and do not learn from him; Show the world to be selfless, and you can also kill the corrupt officials and ink officials in a town - don't look at Hongday to cry and plead in front of Lafayette. I knew that there was pepper on his handkerchief, and a wipe of it was tears—he was fine! The queen didn't finish listening to it, and her heart was clear, thinking that Hongtian had always said that there was a way to cry and wipe her tears, and she couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh and cough. As he got up, he shouted: "Caiyun, I'm in good spirits this time, I'm washing, it's time to incense the Bodhisattva!" ”

"That's it," Qianlong also stood up, "I also want to open, even if I am busy to death, everything will not go as expected." Chen Shiqi came from Haining, and when the old man saw that I had a bad temperament, he said that he was blindly doing things but not relaxing, but he did half the work, and advised me to evacuate. Think about what he said, tomorrow I will take Liu Tongxun to rest for a day. Daqing wants to get another Liu Tongxun...... It's hard! ”

Standing under the dan pier outside the main dormitory, taking two deep breaths of cold air, Qianlong's heart suddenly refreshed, because he saw *** standing tall at the door of the inner courtyard, and said with a smile: "You have been with me for a day, like a shadow." These four turns of police are arranged like iron buckets, not to mention people, not a drop of water can seep in, tomorrow I will go out of the palace for a walk, you go back and sleep well, so that you can come back to be a shadow - go! As he spoke, he walked towards the West Side Palace, and said as he walked, "Wang Basha, reward the robe in your hand!" ”

"Hey! Yes! Wang Ba was ashamed to see that Qianlong's temperament had calmed down, so he responded crisply and ran out of the chase. Bu Yi, Bu Li, Bu Zhi, and several eunuchs embraced Qianlong like the moon and came to the Xihou Sleeping Palace. Seeing the two palace lamps swaying from a distance, Qianlong knew that it was the Nala clan who came out. When I got closer, Chen, Yanhong, Xiaoying, and Li were all there, and they knelt down to greet them at the gate of the palace, and Qianlong smiled and said: "You guys are fighting cards, who loses and who wins?" - Get up, cold ...... underground"

Several concubines knew that Qianlong's things were not going well these days, and they were angry and angry, and they were ordered to "turn off the lights", but they were worried in their hearts, but when they saw Qianlong's color and words, they were all relieved, and they suddenly laughed. Chen said: "I and Li's dial, Yan Hong Xiaoying, they are young and fast, and they will make a ghost if they don't make a mistake when they change their cards......" Li said: "Luck is not good, pick a card whiteboard, and then pick, either the west wind or the north wind - they eat and touch too proud, I lost all the monthly cases!" "Yan Hong is not good at words, just laughing. Xiaoying has been in the palace for a few years, and she has already experienced it, and she giggled: "Who made a ghost change cards?" Master Chen stole the chicken and told me to hold it down on the spot! ”

Qianlong did a day's work, received the minister's criticism, tossed dizzy, saw that the queen was gentle and solemn, listening to this group of women crying Yan whispering, really opened his mind, listened to the smile and entered the hall...... I sat on a chair in the middle of the south window. Nala had already brought the tea himself, but he coughed and ordered everyone to "sit down". When I looked at them one by one, Nala's little lambskin was hairy and shouldered, and he wore the cheongsam palace makeup neatly, and he was almost forty years old, still simple and clear, and he was dignified and steady in his beauty, but the Chen and Li families were all partial buttoned gowns and pleated skirts. Chen's charm and Li's Pune, but the red Xiaoying are all green onion and yellow single gowns and red dresses, and they are very thin. Qianlong looked at the chests of the two, but smiled at Nala: "You haven't been fighting cards for a long time, I heard that in addition to the "Diamond Sutra" and "Daughter Sutra", you are also reading. Didn't you put incense on the Bodhisattva? ”

"Yes, it's homework three times a day." Nala said with a steady smile, "Once for Lafayette, once for the emperor's longevity, once for the mother to eliminate disasters." I don't dare to be sloppy in this kind of thing. She subconsciously stroked her left arm and smiled again, "Niang Niang Feng is not safe, and they don't dare to disturb there." I also like to be quiet these times, but I think that they are young, and there is no place to relieve boredom in the long night, and there is also a peaceful and happy fun with the bustling, right? ”

These words were said in a tranquil manner, without pretentiousness, Qianlong listened to it and his heart moved, this Nala clan had a problem of jealousy, and his true personality of reading and nurturing qi has also changed...... Thinking about it, he smiled and said: "Women, just pay attention to chastity, quietness, and respect filial piety." Your master's mother is not in good health, so she should share the work for her. The last time I saw you, Wei Jiashi, her makeup table was peeled off the paint, and yours was given to her, so I am very grateful! ”

Seeing this scene, Qianlong wanted to spend the night here, they all got up with a smile and saluted, and said: "It's almost time, the master is tired for a day, and it's time to rest." Slaves and maids Ming'er will ask the master to ...... again" Nala also smiled and said: "It's not me who picks up the master, Ming'er wants to accompany Lafayette Tianning Temple to incense, the Buddha made a vow in front of him, tonight to recite the "Diamond Sutra" ten times, the master is not too noisy to live here. I'm afraid that my master won't be able to sleep......"

"Good! I'll go! Qianlong stood up with a smile, stepped forward and stroked Nala's sideburns, and said to everyone, "Hundred lines of filial piety come first, you chant the scriptures well, I will turn over the red sign tonight......" Yanhong's face flushed, and she squatted down to salute without words. Chen's Li said that he wanted to accompany the Nala clan to chant together, and Xiaoying wanted to go back to the room, so he and Yanhong followed the original road to accompany Qianlong.

Yan Hong and Xiao Ying actually live in a dormitory in the east, with three halls in one light and two dark, and the ground cage is steaming. As soon as Qianlong entered the house, he said: "It's hot-it's a shame that you are all from martial arts, so afraid of the cold?" Saying that, he entered the East House, but he didn't know that this was Xiaoying's house, and Xiaoying couldn't say it. Yan Hong couldn't speak, so she brought hot water, knelt down to wash his feet, Xiaoying wrung a hot towel to wipe his face, and said, "I asked them to warm up in the house, and Sister Hong and I want to take a bath." Qianlong was a little surprised to see that she refused to "avoid", but only then did he understand that he had entered the wrong room, and he couldn't help but laugh secretly. With a wave of his hand, all the people retreated, and then said to Yan Hong and the others: "It's rare to go to the wrong house, and you don't have many brands to turn over your brand, you are sisters and sisters, and you have been in the same boat with me, and the joy of fish and water is naturally blessed and shared tonight, okay?" ”

Both sisters blushed with shame, bowed their heads and said nothing. Qianlong smiled: "Don't be shy, the private property of the boudoir is more private than the thrush, this is not the right court, the joy of humanity!" What's there to be embarrassed about? Yan Hong pursed her lips and smiled: "This kind of thing...... The outsiders knew that they were going to joke about ......" Xiaoying also said: "I'll go to my sister's room to rest......" Qianlong said: "Who dares to chew his tongue and skin him alive!" He shouted out the window: "Bu Yi - take the basin and get hot water in!" Bu Yi pulled the male duck's throat through the window and promised: "Yes, the slave is waiting!" ”

At one point, a large basin was filled with several buckets of hot water, and the house was filled with hot and humid steam. The lanterns and candles were not very bright, Qianlong wore a Chinese coat and yellow shorts and half-crooked on the bed, ordering the two to wear wide clothes. Qianlong was afraid that it would be too difficult for them, so when he pulled out a book to read, it was "The Jade Box", and he looked at it indiscriminately, and he didn't see any words. Yan Hong and Xiao Ying didn't dare to look at each other, they untied their clothes in the mist, sat on the small pestle and soaked their feet in the basin to wash themselves. Qianlong threw away the book and sat up, and said with a smile: "I want to watch the flowers under the lamp, and the beauty bathing is the most rare ......" The two women were naked, and they were close at hand at this time, and they really had an unobstructed view: between the thin light mist, the red was covered in snow and white, the skin was as soft as fat, Xiaoying's cheeks were flushed and gentle and soft like a virgin, one hand protected the breast, the other hand covered the shyness, and the delicate and couldn't help but hang his head, Qianlong looked at them greedily, looked at the snow-white necks of the two, and the cheese-like chests, Xiaoying's white steamed bun-like **, the hidden place of the red and snow-white thighs...... Qianlong, who had not entered the inner palace for a few days, felt hot and dry, numb and itchy all over his body, ** The words of Chong Teng suddenly got erect, and he tore himself naked with a strange smile...... All come up...... See who can bring down this tower? I'm going to release the crotch heroes and subdue you! He blew out the light with a puff. Yan Hong Xiaoying is a long-term resentful woman, just a glance at her ears are warm and heartbeat, as soon as the light goes out, she is not embarrassed, she secretly hurriedly dried her body, timidly went to bed and hugged Qianlong one by one. The three of them opened their mouths and didn't speak, the six hands stroked randomly, and the cow was panting and happy...... The palace maids guarding outside the window listened with red ears and enthusiastic hearts, and their hearts were full of envy and resentment. The eunuchs puffed out their cheeks as if nothing had happened...... Listening to the drums, it is already the third correction point.
