Liu Yong said that "there is a will", but the "will" has not been issued for a long time, the people of the Ji family are really living like a year during this time, the steamer is as dark as ever, the anxiety is unbearable, looking forward to the will, pointing to Qianlong's "love for the old" Enshi rain and dew, but afraid of this edict. Because the crime has never been decided, some of the words that come out of the number are fluttering, and some hats are scared to death when they are buttoned down, which is a situation where life can be light or heavy. Once the edict demanded his life, even the room for turning around and the hope of begging for his life were cut off. However, it is extremely tormenting, the outside of the house is in danger, the internal worries and the population are restless, and everyone is like ants in a hot pot. Ji Yun is the head of the family, and he has to hold on to it outside, Dai Dongyuan, Liu Shihui, Wang Wenzhi, Wang Wenshao, and other celebrities and Confucian friends come to visit, and they also have a calm and open-minded attitude of "not being surprised by changes", and they are fried and burned in their hearts, so they have to harden their hearts and go forward.

Seven days have passed, Ji Yun waited for Ma all night before and didn't close his eyes, just sat on the chair and slept for a while, Shaanxi Lane on the south side of Cherry Xiejie didn't know which drama hung his throat"-oh-" A bright cavity entered through the wall through the courtyard, Ji Yun woke up in shock, and saw that Ma's eyes were blazing, and an arm that was as thin as a reed stick-like was put on the quilt, and when he heard that several women of the Shen family outside were still dreaming, he paced over to cover the corners of the quilt for her, and said softly: "The water and rice have not been stained for three days, and such a good person can't stand it." Ready-made ginger vinegar, the next bowl of noodles for you, maybe it can be moved. ”

"I'm useless. The Buddha is going to call me to the west. Ma shook his head, looked at his husband without blinking, stretched out his thin hand to help his husband sit on the edge of the bed, and said in a weak voice: "...... It's true...... When I saw the boy, he was going to take me away...... I said I couldn't let you go, and he said that your family soldier had this catastrophe in his life...... You also said that you have done too much iniquity...... The first Lao'an people also came...... Saying that the ancestors of the Ji family have accumulated virtue, you are not in the way...... And that the decree is coming...... The boy smiled and said that if I come back in the evening, I will wake up......"

Ji Yun listened to it with half a doubt, but just smiled bitterly. There is no shortage of such things in his own book "Notes on Reading Wei Caotang". Li Dai's matter, Lu Jianzeng's matter can be regarded as evil, the game pen and ink on weekdays are easy to paint, and in the same year, colleagues were teased by him and can't remember how much, the heart is evil, the hand is evil, and the Ma family doesn't know how many times he has been admonished on weekdays, and now it seems to be a long farewell, it really sounds sour and sad, and tears are still flowing out of his eyes. whispered to Ma Shi: "This is because you are weak and surprised, and you are also crazy about reading my books." Take a good look at meditation and recuperate, this illness is ...... no hindrance" Ma smiled quietly and said: "Before I marry into your family, I will eat fasting and chant Buddha...... What else am I afraid of? It's for you...... When this dream came out, I knew that it was the Buddha and the ancestor who ignited my maze...... You're out of the way...... My heart is very clear, long live the Lord can see it! Your life is fine, and I can rest assured when I leave......" Ma Shi looked at the brightened window, gasped for a while and calmed down, and said, "You rest, that's what you said, ginger vinegar noodles for me to eat, don't be a little meaty, maybe it will be ......" Ji Yun smiled: "They haven't slept all night, they all have a good night's sleep, I'll come, you take a bite and I'll rest." As he spoke, he got up and went to the outside of the study, and saw that the curtains were covered, and Caifu, Aiyun, Huiqian, Mingxuan, and three girls were squeezed on the bed, and some were crooked on the spring bench and fell asleep, so they went to the porch to poke the stove and sit on the pot without saying a word.

This time, everyone in the main room in the study woke up, and Guo Caifu came out to drive Ji Yun back to the room. A few people were busy making the bed, changing the medicine jar, sweeping the floor and washing, waiting for the coal fire to ignite and the water boiling, cooking for Ma's family, boiling medicine, and going to the room to cook for Ji Yun, which took half an hour to stop. Ji Yun took a turn outside, returned to the room and just served a bowl to eat, faintly heard the gongs on the street, and the sound of broken horses' hooves, he couldn't help but be stunned, Ma Shi said on the bed: "Master, the holy decree is coming, ...... quickly" was about too excited, and he turned his back on his breath all of a sudden. Everyone was in a hurry and panicked, and a rush of footsteps came outside, and they saw Xing Wuwei hurriedly come in and said, "Master Ji, the prince of the inner mansion has come to deliver the decree!" ”

"I'll come now." Ji Yun hurriedly replied, turned around and ordered, "Greet Mrs., turn her over—" and strode out. I saw Wang Lian waiting in the main courtyard.

"Ji Yun listens to the order!" Wang Lian didn't enter the house, so he stood in the south under the dripping eaves of the main hall, and when Ji Yun knelt and kowtowed, he proclaimed the decree, "Er Ji Yun is a scholar with a small life, and he has been promoted by the accumulation of my grace, and he lives in the secret position of Ding Xuan Mi to the extreme of the ministers. It is not to think of purity to serve the country and be loyal to the master, and indulge the slaves of the family to protect their relatives and run amok! I thought about the grace of the visit to the Er, I was overwhelmed with cold and resentful, and I was going to severely punish the punishment to suppress the dynasty, and I had a good time in treating the illness of the former queen, so I was spared a death, and I was sent to serve in front of the Dihua army to continue to atone for my crimes. Chin this! ”

"The ministers should be punished, and the emperor's grace is mighty!" Ji Yun kowtowed deeply, "The criminal minister Ji Yun trembled and thanked him!" ”

This is a "military flow" punishment, which is lighter than being sent to Heilongjiang to enslave people in armor, or to fight for Ula and Uriya Sutai before serving in the army. Neither handed over to the ministry, Ji Yun was most worried that Yu Minzhong and the Shen generation were playing and provoking under Qianlong's knees, annoying Qianlong, "giving suicide" is a casual sentence, listening to this will, I can't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, sure enough, "Yu's life is fine", thinking of Mr. Dong's words and Mrs. Ma's dream, I felt awe and surprise. Thinking about Xinjiang, thousands of miles away from here, thousands of rugged and dangerous, and Zhuo Mu Weiping military is in the ascendant, Zhan misses Yunshan Guanhe, and thinks about the return journey, and it is difficult to suppress the sadness from it...... Thinking of this, his face had turned pale, and he struggled for a while, but he couldn't get up.

"Master Ji, please get up." After Wang Lian finished announcing the decree, he had already changed his face with a smile on his face, and hurriedly stepped forward to hold him with both hands, and said, "Let's say hello to the master!" If you do this, you'll be half gone. Although Dao'er is farther away, he still contributes to the imperial court, and he returns to Beijing after three years and two years, or our Ji Xiangye! "They were all scared when the accident happened, and there was still water in my eyes, so I said what's wrong?" Ji Zhongtang is the first talented prime minister of the Qing Dynasty, and the emperor loves his old man, but he didn't say it, this son will suffer, and it will be the red sun in the future! Look, look, isn't this the decree that has come? This is the time to run...... "Shi Xiang, Yang Yi and the family members all sweated, hid in the second gate to listen to the news, listened to this edict and were relieved, some people rushed in to report safety, and listened to Ji Yun shouting, "Take fifty taels of silver to the prince to eat tea", and went to the account room to take the silver and gave it to Wang Lian. Wang Lian said "I'm sorry" and smiled, and said a car of relief and auspicious words before leaving the house and riding away.

Ji Yun sent them away, standing in the empty courtyard, looking at the half-cloudy and half-sunny sky, suddenly there was a smell of a situation like a world away from the world, as if everything was vaguely familiar, and they all became strange and cold, seeing that the family was still running around in the courtyard to tell each other, suddenly remembered Mrs. Ma's illness, and entered the study of the west courtyard in a trance. Caifu and several people were already waiting under the Xuan, and when they saw him come in, they called Qian'er together to invite An Hexi. Ji Yun felt a little settled at this moment, and said with a frown: "This is just picking up a life, what is the joy to congratulate?" You take care of my books and luggage, and discuss with Lao Shixiang outside to pick a few people to follow me, Mrs. can't take care of these things, Aiyun and Huiqian are still young, you should work more. I expected that Liu Shi'an still had arrangements, this matter is his decision, his wife is so sick, I beg him for a few days to forgive me and probably not refute the face......" Guo Caifu's face was yellow with tears, and she was tired from working hard for days, but her daughter was Lu Jianzeng's daughter-in-law, and the matter started here, but Ji Yun was willing to die of exhaustion, and he was busy agreeing again and again, and said: "Mrs. has woken up, let's discuss a few times, and the head jewelry can be changed into some silver." The person surnamed Xing outside has already asked the people from the Criminal Department to withdraw, and if he wants to come to the family property, he can keep it, and he is well prepared, so I will follow the old man to the west to wait, and then pick a few proper servants to follow. No matter how difficult it is, we can get through it. Ji Yun felt a little relieved, squatted under the Xuan and used a fan to fan the fire and decoction the medicine, and said: "Such a far way, and I don't know when I will come back, the minions will follow, and they will also be willing." None of you want to follow me, what is the matter with a mother-in-law before the army? As he was talking, he saw Xing Wuwei coming in with Liu Yong, lost his fan and got up and said, "Liu Gong is here?" Please sit inside. Liu Yong only nodded slightly, stood still in the courtyard of the courtyard, and said:

"There is a will, Ji Yun listens to the announcement!"

This sentence is like a thunderbolt on a sunny day, which shocked everyone on the corridor in the courtyard and was dumbfounded: I just received the will, and the front and rear feet are good and it is another will! Ji Yun expected that things had changed greatly, he was shocked, his face was as pale as paper, he shook his sleeves and trembled and knelt down and kowtowed: "The criminal minister Ji Yun listens to the edict ......"

"By the emperor's command," Liu Yong glanced at Ji Yun, who was terrified, and said with a smile, "Ji Yun will immediately enter the Palace of Heart Cultivation to see me." Chin this! ”

Ji Yun's eyes widened suddenly. He just woke up, and fell into the fog of five miles, and it was not surprising to summon the sinners, but it was unheard of to summon the convicted sinners. After being stunned for a long time, he felt rude, and hurriedly kowtowed and replied, "Sinner...... Compliance ......"

"Don't be suspicious of Gong Ji, I'll accompany you into the big house." Liu Yong smiled and helped Ji Yun up, "I went in early in the morning." The emperor said that your punishment will has been issued, and I will see you again before leaving. There is no other meaning - the family can rest assured, the people of the Shuntian Mansion of the Criminal Department and the Yamen of the Infantry Army will retreat, and the family property has already been returned......" He said, Ji Yun's heart was hazy, blank, blurred as if he had splashed a pot of paste, and he couldn't hear what he said.

…… took Liu Yong's sedan chair to the Forbidden City to enter the Xihua Gate, enter the Longzong Gate, and until the military plane, Ji Yun was stunned, like a fool entering the city, and like a sleepwalker at night. Liu Yong listened stupidly when talking to people, someone saluted, nodded and smiled, and a gust of wind blew in the square in front of the Qianqing Gate, only to realize that this body was already in the dragon tower and phoenix bushes. At a glance, seeing the eighth elder brother Xuan Xuan fifteenth elder brother Yan Yan coming out of Yongxiang in a whispering conversation, Yu Minzhong and Ah Gui and Shen also came out of the military machine room to greet each other, Ji Yun hurriedly kowtowed to Brother Xuan Xuan to say goodbye, and just said "Sin Minister-", Yan Yan smiled and waved his hand and said: "Keep this to tell the Lord Long Live." Go far away, turn around and call someone to my house, and I will have a good mule for you. Xuan Xuan and Ji Yun were used to laughing, and said with a smile: "Why do you look dumbfounded?" Don't look like you're mournful, remember that you still owe me a word, and write it to me before you leave! ”

"Su Dongpo has a poem 'Those who return to the old scalp'." Ji Yunqing knew that the situation had improved, and he was completely relieved, because he also smiled, "I'm afraid that I won't be able to wait for you, so I won't be surprised, it's good if I don't become a stupid bird." Because he saw Bu Li coming out of the mouth of Yongxiang, he stopped laughing, unhurried, and followed up with a draft of the speech in his heart.

Qianlong had just returned from Xiannongtan. Sacrificing to the first agricultural altar is a great gift in the spring suburbs, and "helping the plow" is also a pretense, which is a necessary homework. The velvet crown of the golden dragon robe is pasted with three layers inside and three layers outside, and the "appearance" should also be decent. Fang took a bath and changed his clothes, took a walk in the courtyard with soft shoes, and saw Ji Yun wearing a gray market cloth robe and gown, and followed Bu Li into the hanging flower gate, so he stood and said with a smile: "It's Ji Yun, it's been a long time." ”

"The emperor's ......" Ji Yun fell to the ground all of a sudden, and somehow, his heart was sad, and he poured a five-flavor bottle for a hundred tastes, "The guilty minister deserves to die, he has failed the emperor's kindness...... I didn't expect that the body of the sin could still see the face of the dragon! I died outside the Western Frontier, and I have no regrets......"

Qianlong saw a witty, intelligent and talented man who collapsed here in less than half a month, as if he had walked for ten years, his gray and unkempt hair trembled, his voice was mournful and his words could not be interspersed, and he couldn't help but be moved, and when his gaze shifted, he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Let's go into the warm pavilion and talk......" Ji Yun kowtowed and said yes, got up and came in with Qianlong. Qianlong sat on the kang as always, and saw Ji Yun kneeling in front of the fence, looking confused and uneasy, with tears on his face, so he ordered: "Sit over there." I have something to ask and something to command. ”

"Yes," Ji Yun sat down tremblingly, took the towel handed by the eunuch and carefully wiped the corners of his eyes, bowed his head and said, "The criminal respectfully listens to the emperor's teachings. ”

"Start your spirits." Qianlong smiled and said, "Looking at your daily knowledge and intelligence, reading your books, it seems that you have a lot of experience and deep strength, why can't you help but toss so much?" I heard that the minions under the family are also very restless, and the colleagues outside are afraid that they will also have a hot and cold world - it turns out that you are a silver-like pewter spearhead! Ji Yun was originally stubborn, ready to be reprimanded by him with thunder and lightning, but he never expected that it would be treated like this, his heart was joyful, sad and shocked, and his face seemed to be laughing and crying, and said: "Although the criminal minister is not careful in his words and deeds, how dare he not revere the destiny of heaven?" Thunder is angry and does not know the ring, that is the minister of the deer...... On the day of his fate, the minister thought about it behind closed doors, followed the lord for decades, and did not make a small contribution, but instead stopped the defeat and added to the emperor's worries. Those who are ministers have come to this point, and it is really not enough to die to cover up the innocent! As for the hot and cold world, the insiders here know the situation. In the past, Gao Shiqi was convicted, and the Spring Festival couplet on the door wrote, "Investigate the world and break the courage, it is really the cold heart of the world" Today, I have seen it in person...... However, the minister was guilty of heaven, and he did not dare to distinguish between right and wrong with the word 'hot and cold', and it was the heavens that made the minister suffer and redeem for his guilt, and he could not use the hot and cold sinner. Qianlong nodded silently, holding the bowl lid on the table with one hand, but asked, "How old are you this year?" I remember being fifty-one? ”

"Back to the emperor, the minister was born in the second year of Yongzheng, and he is fifty-two years old this year."

"Can the bones of the body still be supported?"

Ji Yun quickly glanced at Qianlong, and hurriedly lowered his head and replied: "The minister has always been strong, he is not hard working outside of writing, he is not good at drinking, he is only a smoker, and his body is quite good." ”

"That's good." Qianlong said lightly, "First, you have entered the military aircraft from Hanlin, and you have never been a magistrate, and you have all played folding documents in military affairs and government affairs, so you are worth the study of the four warehouses and the Ministry of Etiquette, after all, you are just a talent." Second, you are guilty, the court has a system, and I can't hide it privately. I consulted several ministers, and the ministers agreed that you were guilty of defrauding the king, and if you were sent to the ministry for this crime, a hundred Ji Yun would just die. But you have been with me for decades, getting along day and night, and I know that you are not abusing power, not relying on favors and blessings, and not planting the party, wolves, and dogs to create power. Relying on the heavy love of the weapon, the light and crazy dancing of words and stunts and laughter, there are occasional misconduct and presumptuousness, and you don't dare to bully the king, and you don't have it, which is forgivable and pitiful. Originally, Fukangan wanted you, but he went to fight Jinchuan, and he had to go to the arrow furnace, which was a place of smoke and miasma, and the enemy situation was extremely complicated, so he was afraid that there would be any fall. So he sent a message to ask Zhaohui and Hailancha, and they replied that they only arrived last night, and they all said that they wanted to settle you. Therefore I have sent a decree to you in the early hours of this morning. Although it is far away, the people are good, and they will never be embarrassed for you. Sent to other state capitals, the dirty official below didn't know the bottom of the mistake, and wanted to accept the order, what charges can't be pinched out for you? That's what really makes you speechless and can't recover! Go ahead...... Far away from the Central Plains. Some places are optimistic, hidden worries of disaster, here looks dangerous, to borrow a phrase from "Three Kingdoms" to say, "Although in the mouth of the tiger, safe as Mount Tai"! He smiled.

Qianlong spoke eloquently, reasonable, affectionate, and sincere, as if he was dissecting his heartfelt words to his family's children, and when Ji Yun entered the palace, he was terrified, depressed, and his worries were all gone. Hearing that Qianlong Yin Yin had carefully deliberated on his way out, his feelings of longing arose, and he covered his face with his hands and bowed down, unable to restrain himself, and let tears flow out. choked up and said, "Your Majesty...... With all the love and care, Ji Yun dares to forget one day, that is, the scum of pigs and dogs who don't eat! The Emperor ......"

"Okay, just get it." Qianlong was also moved by his words, wiped away his tears, and smiled after a long time, "Hailancha played interestingly, 'Ji Yun is a meat-eating belly, I heard my master say that "meat eaters are despised" this time I will also be "despised" once, I will set up a mutton pot and wait for him, and I will be able to pick up his dog!" - He didn't write the word 'enough', he wrote the 'dog' of dogs and horses! And he said, "I still want to see someone, so you can go back and prepare for the road." If you have many friends at home, you will not be in need. ”

Ji Yun laughed when he heard this, then got up and said goodbye, and as soon as he stood up, Qianlong stopped and asked, "There is something else I want to ask you." You sent a message to your in-laws, Lu Jianzeng, and I concluded that you did. But the raid on Lu Mansion found no evidence at all. How did you report to him? ”

"This ......" Ji Yun was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly replied, "The minister did not report a word of letter to him, at that time, the edict was urgent, and the minister wrapped a little tea and a pinch of salt in an empty envelope, and he knew at a glance that the emperor was going to check his 'salt and tea deficit'......"

Before he finished speaking, Qianlong had already laughed, waved his hand and said, "Go, go...... You're a clever man...... You can see me every day, and truthfully return to ask for sin, how can such a big thing come about? Write a letter to Lu Jianzeng, take care of the crime and return the money, and I will also be gracious...... Go ahead. Seeing Wang Ren coming in with a stack of old Gao Zi folding, he asked, "What is that?" Did you send it from the Military Aircraft Department? ”

"Back to the master." Wang Ren carefully placed the folds on the file in front of the window, and replied, "It's an excerpt from various provinces, and there is no abridgement." The slave just went over to send the "Amitabha Sutra" to Lafayette, and returned to the door of the military aircraft office, Gao Yun took the secret folding box from there, these pieces were too many, and they couldn't be moved at one time, so Lord Heshen asked the slave to bring it over. He said that the others would come in immediately. While listening, Qianlong said "um", turned out the recitals of Fukangan and Sichuan Governor Geluo on the case, and asked: "Who is there in Lafayette?" Wang Ren saw that Qianlong was interested in asking himself, his face lit up with joy, his facial features were all laughing, and he said: "There are old concubines of Ding'an, Master Chun, and Seventeen old Fujin to accompany Lafayette to play leaf cards, and let Master Er go to send the Koran and help Lafayette read the cards." When the slave went, the twenty-four Fujin had just come out, and she asked for the name of the twelve grids, and the filial piety did not return, and she came out after inviting An. There are also Mrs. Hailancha and Mrs. Zhaohui, a large group of people accompanied Lafayette to talk about karma and talk about "Taishang Induction", which was very lively and joyful. Later, Mrs. Heshen also went in, and everyone made fun jokes, and the Queen Mother rewarded Heshen's family with a wish, and other people appreciated the incense burner, some rewarded toothpicks, and fans...... Galeries Lafayette is happy! ”

Qianlong looked at the chapter, saw that Fukangan was already in Chengdu, discussed with Geluo, pointed out 5,000 elite soldiers, and planned to raid Dajinchuan in three days, Gedeng said in his heart, aided the pen with cinnabar to write something, and put down the pen: This Fukangan is to fight quickly, and it is to cut first and then play, and his mind is very clear - Xiao Sha Luoben is a prostitute and faint, and there is an old Sereben in the tribe to respond, taking advantage of his unpreparedness to suddenly cover the attack, you can make a decision. But Lao Sha Luoben resisted with the Qing soldiers, entangled for more than 20 years, and almost lost his life in the grassland with Fu Heng's ability, and Jinchuan was dangerous, is it so risky? On the contrary, if Jinchuan is not decided early, and the army is directly marched into the archery furnace, Tibet will change, and the retreat route will be intercepted, and it will become an erosive situation...... He felt that Fukangan was reckless, but it was reasonable to be reckless, and he couldn't make up his mind how to make this Zhu criticism, so he simply stopped thinking about it, frowned and looked at Fukangan's excerpts, and then pulled Geluo's excerpts and considered them together, and asked, "You also rewarded the Heshen family?" For no reason, why? ”

"Ah, it's this ......" Wang Ren saw that Qianlong was silent, and was ready to retreat, so he hurriedly smiled again, "It's the old lady of Ding'an who said reincarnation, and when it comes to Lord Heshen's appearance, it seems that she was a woman in her previous life, and she is also like a Manchurian aunt and grandmother, looking familiar." Qin Meimei said that it was born by Jinxia Tuo, who died in front of her, and the Queen Mother Lafayette suddenly remembered it and said: "It's really good, the more you talk about it, the more I think about it!" She's so stupid? The wheel has become Heshen and has come to serve the emperor again! It's strange that his master loves him so much, and he reuses him! 'Busy asking Qin Meimei to go to the Buddha Hall of Zhongcui Palace to make incense, and asked for the book of "Liang Huang Confession" to copy, Ke'er's Mrs. Heshen also went in, and everyone laughed for a while, so they rewarded these things. Later, when she came, she didn't say anything more, Lafayette was thinking about this idea, and the slave guessed......"

As soon as he mentioned that He Shen was the reincarnation of Jinxia, Qianlong burst into a loud cry in his heart, and he was suddenly stunned and stunned! …… In fact, maybe subconsciously he had thought about it a long time ago, but the matter was too involved in seclusion and vulgarity, and the royal benevolence and governance said that Confucius and Meng respected Confucianism, and never seriously thought about it. After this sentence, Qianlong really suddenly realized like an enlightenment, and he didn't have to think deeply about it, he already firmly believed it! In just this moment, the looks of Jinxia and He Shen were suddenly superimposed, and the red birthmark like the strangulation marks between Shen Xiang, his woman-like speech and gesture, the Queen Mother's disdain for him and her closeness at first sight...... There is no reason for everything, and everything that comes together without a reason is called "fate...... The drizzly and miserable dusk of Chengqian Palace, the broken Jiaotong Yaoqin in the side hall, the dark palace room with a white silk sleeve, and Jinxia's green silk haircut, her pear blossom tears with rain and her tactful singing children's voice...... Forty-five years have passed, and the past has become as ethereal as green smoke - he was like a person walking on the road who was called by a passer-by, looked back and recalled, and suddenly recognized: "It's you, sure enough, it's you, after all, you came back to wait for my ......" - Qianlong blurted out as he stared at the railing on the fence. Wang Ren had never seen him like this, like a wandering child and like a dream, startled, while trying to change the tea for him, asked, "Your Majesty, what did you say?" ”

"Oh! …… It's nothing. ”

Qianlong suddenly turned back from the distant and boundless thoughts, only to know that this body was still in the government affairs of thousands of letters. He smiled to himself, tried his best to dispel these absurd thoughts, wrinkled his brows and focused his mind on Jinchuan military affairs, muttered for a long time, and criticized Fukangan's invitation:

The prelude and the present fold have been read, and considering the Grow recital, it seems feasible for Qing Zhi to "march immediately and drive straight in". And Qing marched on three days, although I wanted to stop it, I couldn't stop it. I am resolute and courageous, and I am also militarily blunt. "The so-called success is in the sky, the matter is in the people, the decision is not late, the doubtful thing is not done, and the time is not doubtful" shows that the general has defeated the enemy. However, the soldiers are fierce and the battle is dangerous, and I am very worried, and there is no perfect way to win. This battle of hitting eggs with stones, that is, luck in case of the heart should not exist, and the caution of caution is encouraged. Now that it has been done, I earnestly hope that there will be an echo, that a complete victory is a complete victory, a total defeat is a total defeat, and an undefeated victory is an undefeated victory, and there can be no concealment. The Yin Jian of Zhang Guangsi is not far away, and he is not afraid!

I feel that there is still something to say, even if the war is unfavorable, you can honestly report it, increase the troops and fight again, think about it is not very auspicious - what is the matter with blindly saying "what if you lose"? At this moment, Fukangan is on the front line. Qianlong was flustered in his heart, he pulled Gro's fold again, picked up the pen and wanted to criticize something, it was too late to think about anything, the pen hung in the air for too long, and a big drop of cinnabar juice fell on the folded book. The blood was very dazzling, Qianlong suddenly felt unlucky, and irritably put down his pen and shoes to come to the kang, gathered the two pieces of the folds and crumpled them together, pointed to Wang Ren and said: "Burn it!" Wang Ren hurriedly agreed, but before he reached the edge of the kang, He Shen walked into the hall with a spring breeze on his face, smiled and groaned, shook his hands and kowtowed, and said, "Master, the person sent by Hailan has arrived!" The slave went to the noon gate just now, there are married, and there are also Huanghua'er daughters, all of whom are Dingding'er Peugeot......" He was a little short of breath, his eyes lit up with excitement, and he pointed to the south with his right hand and said happily, suddenly thinking that this was something to do in front of Qianlong, his cheeks shook and turned into a smile, and his tone became solemn: "The women of the Western Regions are beautiful, and many of them are nobles, and they are very graceful and dignified. The people in the Ministry of Rites said that there was no precedent for how this different prisoner of war should be released. The decree must be carried out, and the servants will come in......"

Qianlong didn't notice the difference in his demeanor before and after, and listened with a smile. The light and shadow of the south window shine in obliquely, reflecting the figure of He Shen Tingxiu, a melon seed face with pink Yingying, and between the eyebrows, it seems to be Jinxia's smiling "with a smile" description, and the "strangulation marks" between the necks are also very distinct. It wasn't until He Shen finished speaking that Qianlong came back to his senses. He leaned over slightly, and asked in a deep voice, "Since there is no precedent, how do you think it should be cooked?" This year's show girls have been selected, and they are summoned to the palace to recruit outsiders to discuss, and besides, they are family members who advocate rebellion, and they should be slaves, and they can't be promoted, so how about sending them to the Xin Zheku to be miscellaneous servants in the palace? ”

"It's a pity that such a woman is a handyman. It is also not suitable to charge the harem. He Shen smiled, "According to the example of the offending officials, the families of the officials are slaves, and the slaves think that they are all stunners in the world, and they are afraid that the officials will not be able to bear it." Since the Queen Mother Lafayette and the masters are going to move to live in the Old Summer Palace, it is better for the master to select them and wait for them according to the example of the show girl. It turned out that the palace maid who was going to be released next year was released ahead of schedule, and both of them were virtuous and political. The women in the palace are all banner people who pretend to be back to wait, and there are a few girls from the Western Regions waiting in front of Lafayette, and the old people who are unique are also happy. This is filial piety, and there is a meaning of gentleness in it, who dares to talk nonsense? The emperor never pays attention to women, this is known to the world! ”

Qianlong is not lustful, and "the world knows it", He Shen said it rightly, Zhuang Su was like to Dabin, and the eunuchs and palace ladies next to him all laughed secretly. Qianlong was also a waner, but he was not ashamed of receiving it, and only nodded and praised: "What you said is very true." This has nothing to do with their appearance. Enkuan's disposal can restrain the nobles of Zhuobe Taiji, so as not to rebel with an iron heart, and it is also good to shake their rebellion. Treat these people well, and it will be easy for Huo Jizhan to settle down in the future. Wang Lian, you go and pass on the decree, all the Hui women will be temporarily placed in the West Sixth Institute, waiting for Lafayette to choose. Let the Ministry of Internal Affairs check it, and the palace maids should be released next year and the year after tomorrow, and each person will be rewarded with another thirty taels of silver in addition to the regulations, and they will go home from the palace tomorrow! He Shen smiled and said: "Master, the slave thinks that this matter should be asked by the queen to be issued and executed with a decree." After reminding Qianlong, he felt that he was in a hurry, waved his hand and said with a smile: "You go to Kunning Palace to spread my will, and send it out with Yi's will." ”

"Yes!"

Wang Lian hurriedly responded, but he retreated. Qianlong glanced at the note on the case and said, "Fukangan's fold was sent to the Military Aircraft Department to see." He had already brought 5,000 men into Jinchuan. How the Sichuan Green Battalion responded, how to ensure the heavy food and salary, there is no detailed play, you must understand the situation on the front line at any time, and his excerpts should not be abridged, and they should be handed over directly. He entered the army without asking for orders, and the responsibility was too great, and this matter was not allowed to be spread outside. As he spoke, he pushed Fukangan and Geluo's recitals outward: "You can take a look first!" He Shen glanced at Qianlong quickly, carefully held it with both hands, and bowed down to take advantage of the sunlight under the window to look at it attentively—it was a very short two-fold piece, and it was clear at a glance—he lowered his head and pondered for a while, and said: "The emperor doesn't have to worry, Fukangan will definitely win this battle!" Qianlong smiled and asked, "What insight do you have?" ”

"Little Salopun is like a chicken and a phoenix than his father, old Salopon." He Shen Zhengrong said, "Fukangan is stronger than Fu Heng in military affairs. In this way, Xiaosha is not Fukangan's opponent at all. ”

"Well, that seems reasonable."

"Zhang Guangsi, a relative of his family, fought back and forth in Jinchuan, and never entered the hinterland, Fu Heng occupied all of Jinchuan, and attacked the ear cliff, the geographical situation is already familiar, and Jinchuan is already in danger with us."

Qianlong couldn't help but glance at He Shen, he didn't expect He Shen to have this ability in the military. didn't say anything, and listened to him continue: "Old Sha Luo ran to kill his brother and sister-in-law, and the people of Jinchuan were not monolithic. Salopon's niece, Seleben Dolma, had been waiting for an opportunity to take revenge. Now that Xiao Sha Luoben is rebelling, the clan will naturally make a riot. Fu Heng caught Zhuoma that day and released him on the spot, this is Fu Heng's foresight. The time and place are favorable, and Sha Luoben does not occupy any of them, so they are defeated, and Fukangan is planned and decided, and the brave soldiers are strong and have a thousand firearms. Dare to do this, because he is afraid that the people of Jinchuan will be prepared and gather heavy troops for sanitation, but they will be oppressed into a ball and oppose the imperial court - not because they are in a hurry to lead troops to the archery furnace to settle down. After speaking, he licked his dry lips. Qianlong couldn't help but sigh with his palms, and said with a smile: "What a Heshen, and he has grown again!" Since he is the Minister of Military Aircraft, he is willing to pay attention to military affairs, which is good-" He said, and took another copy of the excerpt, "This is Dou Guangnai's excerpt, and seven counties including Xianju in Zhejiang have new deficits. The governor of Liangjiang, Fu Lehun, was also involved, as well as the corruption and corruption of the feudal division and the weaving department, this is another Cathay Pacific! Cao Wenzhi, the secretary of the household department, is on a business trip in the south of the Yangtze River, and I have already gone to Zhejiang to conduct a thorough investigation in the name of his minister, Jiang Sheng, the left attendant of the Criminal Department, and Yiling A, the right attendant of the Ministry of Works, have also gone to Ah Gui, and you and Yu Minzhong have also taken a look, and there are any opinions to Chen Zheng. If you have a relationship with Fullerhun, let's make it clear here, and you can avoid the case. ”

"The minion and Fullerhun just nodded in friendship." He Shen took over the heavy twists and turns, and his heart couldn't help but sink: just finished cooking Cathay, this came out again, he really has nothing to do with this governor, but Fuller Hun is a partner with A Gui in Gubeikou and Zhangjiakou, and he has seen him in Ah Gui's mansion several times, and he has been friends for decades. This is only one layer, and what is even worse is that Fu Lehun himself is the capital of the fifteenth elder brother Yanyan, and his feelings are as dense as glue paint, and if he shakes it off, he will be offended to the end...... Thinking nervously in his heart, he said: "But as far as the slave knows, Fullerhun is only competitive and short-sighted, and his ethics are quite incorruptible. Although Dou Guangnai was impeached, he was a little disapproving! "How did Qianlong know that a lot of kung fu and Shen moved a lot of thoughts? He groaned and said: "The Shengzhu mentioned in this fold is woven in Hangzhou, which is recommended by the fifteenth elder brother, Dou Guangnai said that there is a matter of sending private wealth to Yanyan, and the minister has returned it to the elder brother of the night traffic?" To find out! Qianlong said, his face was already gloomy, his slightly pale eyebrows were tightly wruffled, and the deep eyelids flickered faintly and faintly, staring at the outer hall silently. He Shen's mood changed at this time. He didn't meet much with Yan Yan in Shandong in Beijing, and Yan Yan didn't say anything about him, but somehow, he always felt that this prince had a problem with him, and he was wary of himself like a thief, and he was very suspicious that Qian Feng's backer was him, so he dared to make it difficult for himself everywhere! "It would be nice if the fifteenth master got involved" - this thought passed by, he carefully glanced at the majestic and cold Qianlong, his heart trembled, and he considered the words and said: "Elder brother is a good elder brother, the fifteenth master is upright, and he will definitely not accept bribes from slaves." But the reason why villains are villains is that they are ashamed to be villains alone. It is inevitable that the edge will be clinging. It is rumored that the fifteenth master also bought a girl to wait by his side in Shandong, isn't it something that Wang Erlie and those subordinates around him made it up? Then again, Dou Guangnai, the emperor, also knows that he is picky in the cracks of his bones, and he will find out if he has nothing to do, and he can't believe the words of fame and reputation. ”

"What Dou Guangnai knows very well is that he is a direct minister, and he sells his reputation and reputation, so he was not elected to the cabinet minister. But he's not a liar, and you're not right to say that. Qianlong said, "Lu Hui'er's matter was played as soon as she returned to Beijing, it was a good story of the son in distress who rescued him from the dust, and I didn't have anything to do after I inquired, so I have already promoted her to the side of Fujin." Taoism is good for everything, but it is disgusting to examine human feelings and interpret heavenly principles, and blame people endlessly. Heshen, although your grade is not high now, you are already in the center, don't follow the crowd. ”

"Yes! Remember, don't learn! ”

"It's not that you don't want Taoism, it's that you don't want fake Taoism!"

"Yes! Don't fake ...... Anyway, it is necessary to pay attention to the way of loyalty and forgiveness, and not to be disgraceful! ”

Qianlong smiled suddenly, He Shen has no academics, but he loves this shrewdness and innocence. I was about to talk about the investigation of the Pai Qin mission, Wang Ren came in from the gate of the palace, smiled and said, "Master, Fukangan's good news has arrived!" A Gui Yu Minzhong Liu Yong came in to give you good news! "Good, good!" Qianlong suddenly brightened with joy, and shouted one after another, "Come in, come in!" He Shen laughed again, "You have foresight!" ”

He Shen was a little flustered in his heart, the military "insights" just now were actually analyzed and explained in detail by Ah Gui at the military aircraft, and he could overhear that he was now found to be sold, along this topic, Ah Gui and the others immediately showed their hooves when they came in. Although it is not so good, the test phrase "the beauty of plundering people and picking up people's teeth and wisdom" is also difficult, thinking about it, He Shen has an idea, and he hurriedly bowed to the ground and thanked him, saying: "This is the Lord's blessing!" How dare the courtiers and slaves covet the merits of heaven? On the same day, Xiaosha advocated a rebellion, eroding the western half of Sichuan, and the emperor planned above the ninefold, that is, the secret transfer of the Hunan Green Battalion and the Central Sichuan Battalion to enter the western Sichuan, and the military dispatch of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces blocked the road to the west. A Gui of the Military Aircraft Department adheres to the will of the master and has a good plan, Fukang, An, Zhiyong and all loyal and loyal to his life, and the crippled and ugly captives are not worthy of a blow from the king. Monarchs and ministers work together to destroy the enemy, so they can fight quickly. At the beginning of the Jinchuan Rebellion, the emperor said, 'This battle of Jinchuan is not comparable to the previous battle, and it is expected to be won in one drum'......

He spoke quickly, loudly and neatly, and his usual words were more eloquent and engaging, and he said with his fingers, and he was full of enthusiasm. A Guiren had already come in, listening to his long talk about saliva, Qianlong listened to his face radiant, but he secretly thought to himself: this person's talent is mediocre, but he can't disobey his mental eloquence. It was easy to hear him breathe, and Ah Gui was just about to interject, but He Shen picked up his breath again and said, "Jinchuan is flat, and now the aftermath is the first priority." The slaves thought that Jinchuan had repeatedly rebelled and rebelled, just because the Sha tribe was led by Tusi, and the government affairs were not controlled by **, so it was better to change the land and return to the stream, set up a Jinchuan mansion or state, and add a battalion of green battalion soldiers to defend at any time. The emperor once said that it should be done once and for all, this is the way to deal with it. Otherwise, if it is peaceful today, it will be difficult to ensure that there will be no more incidents in the years to come. If it is counted from the time Zhang Guangsi, a relative of his relatives, went on the expedition, the servants checked it, and roughly calculated that the monthly military expenditure was one million, and the total amount of silver used was 70 million taels. With this silver, how much Jinchuan also fed it! Moreover, this is the main road to Tibet, and it is not cost-effective to use troops repeatedly and repeatedly. After speaking, he kowtowed and looked up at Qianlong.

"Even thinking about the aftermath?" Qianlong smiled, looked at Ah Gui and the others, and said, "What is the situation in Fukangan, I haven't seen the text of the good news yet!" He Shen breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, no matter what he said, these words were enough to separate the topic of "foresight", seeing that Qianlong was happy, he smiled and said: "The slave is happy in his heart, and he has said a lot." A Gui Yu Minzhong and Liu Yong's military politics are their strengths, and they should listen to their opinions more. The three of them laughed. Ah Gui presented Fukangan's report with both hands. When Qianlong looked at it, it was the words "Eight Hundred Miles to Hurry", and the words "Success" were written next to it, and the line of small characters of "Slave Fukang An Gong Gong Knock Joy Bathing Heavenly Grace" was also written in a dignified and calm manner. He looked at the yellow silk mounted paper that he usually used to write the excerpt of the invitation, and after a long time, he smiled and said: "I still have palpitations when I look at Jinchuan's excerpts!" For the treasure land of Jinchuan alone, he killed two university scholars and prime ministers, deposed one university scholar, and killed a general. They are also 'retributive', and when they are defeated, they have to hide their merits, use account books and paper, and bring a smell of horse manure to deceive the court! Fukangan is really a treasure of my Qing Dynasty, worthy of Fu Heng! I can't imagine that in just a few days, I can make such a miracle! As he spoke, he read it, but it was a rather concise short article:

…… As soon as the slaves arrived in Chengdu, they summoned the governor, the governor and the officials above the deputy general of the Chengdu generals to discuss and suppress. Xian said that although Jinchuan Xiao Shaluoben was mediocre and incompetent, he was brave and good at fighting, and the situation there was steep, the road was muddy and rugged, and it was not easy to take it lightly. The slave secretly thought that the artillery and ordnance of our army were far stronger than the enemy, and the father withdrew from Jinchuan, leaving a detailed map of Jinchuan, and the name of the lama temple between the large and small Jinchuan was called "Nomei". This enemy army is in discord and the situation is in danger, and only one army can quickly defeat it. Once the relocation is delayed, there may be a call from the hero and work together, and the same enemy will be the same as the enemy, and I don't know how many more weeks to take! With the minions leading an army of 5,000 strong, they still raided from Qingshuitang, and Gero and the pre-mobilized 75,000 green battalion troops were on standby. Relying on my emperor like a blessing in the sky, within five days Sonomu has entered my grasp, and cut off his escape and scraping the ear cliff to return. The heart is occupied by me, the enemy of Jinchuan has no leader, the army then marches in, the big and small Jinchuan collapsed and scattered within three days, the south starts from the rotten water, the north reaches the small Yellow River and even the Hanshuiyu area, the large military camp Mo connects Shi Lu correspondingly, ascends a look, the shallow trees and grass are clear, all of them are my brilliant soldiers, and the enemy has been lurking in the grass and reeds. After two days of Dasuo, 20,000 enemies were captured, and there were still more than 40,000 Jinchuan civilians, and a total of Sangzhi Living Buddha was pushed to the camp to contribute to surrender, and he called for contact with the Scraping Ear Cliff, and the original Scraping Ear Cliff was guarded by more than 1,000 annihilating the enemy and 4,000 old and weak women, and the officers and soldiers took the opportunity to climb the cliff to cover the attack. At this point, the people and land of the whole territory of Jinchuan have surrendered to the imperial court! In the eight-day treacherous scuffle, 7,223 enemy chieftains under Sonomu were captured, and Xiao Sha Luoben committed suicide in poverty. Twenty of the enemy's firearms and cannons of 3,000 catties, 21 small cannons of 2,000 catties, three medicine depots, more than 40,000 bags of guns, and bird muskets......

The following bows, sabers, spears, spears, and stabbing swords are detailed, densely written in small letters, Qianlong is all at a glance, and at the end he wrote:

…… The battle was very complicated, and the situation of the fierce white-knuckle fighting was terrifying, and our army lost as many as 4,000 people. The servant was shocked and rejoiced, and thought that this service was advocated without asking for an order, and at first he was relieved to increase the amount of the imperial court, but he was also afraid of sin: although he would have the right to make a decision in the autocratic court, he would eventually lose the righteousness of the courtesy and respect of the people, and wander around the center of the room and be uneasy. It is used to report the victory as soon as possible, in order to comfort the worries of my emperor who relied on Que Panyin, and to cure the crime of slaves entering the army without permission as a posterior warning. Fukangan was overwhelmed and trembling and waiting for the edict, and the lover Sien couldn't help himself, and his heart increased poignantly when he was about to write. ……

Qianlong looked at it, and couldn't help but smile at the corners of his eyebrows, and then said a few words of "please sin", which was said simply, he also felt that the words were sincere, and glanced at the four military ministers with his eyes, and did not speak, and raised the pen on the fold and said on the fold:

I learned that the joy of my heart is beyond words! Since Qingfu and his relatives Zhang Guangsi were defeated and humiliated, Er's father decided Jinchuan first, and he decided again today, and Jinchuan has not fought since then! The people of Jinchuan enjoy the blessings of prosperity, and the roads on the Tibetan border can be unblocked. Not only Sichuan is safe, nor only Tibet benefits, this merit is great, it is the world's hundreds of millions of people to celebrate and rejoice, Erqin is ordered by the king, the edict to fight the enemy, the speed of the army is within the reach of the general's scepter, I but reward Er Jiaoran loyalty to the military state, Qing'er to open Yi Di to solve the worries of the court, why do you not wait for the order to move, why is you so uneasy? That is, the chief Sono Mucha was escorted to Beijing to be taken prisoner. To appease the people of Jinchuan, comfort the casualties, and keep the meritorious and meritorious generals, I will have the right life to settle Jinchuan. Waiting for my order, that is, a general led the army to the archery furnace to wait for the order, and he admired this!

He put down his pen with satisfaction and said to the four ministers with a smile: "The words of the holy words were all spoken by He Shen first. What do you say about the merits of Fukangan? What to do with the aftermath of Jinchuan? Let's talk about it! ”

The four ministers looked at each other and smiled, and Yu Minzhong said with a smile: "Just now in the military aircraft department, Ah Gui read Fukangan's excerpts. He didn't write down the details of the battle, but it sounded like it was a big deal! The war in Jinchuan was not only a battle in one place, but also spread to Tibet, and some Tibetan leaders with different aspirations could not be without scruples. It's Fukangan who slaughters chickens in Sichuan, and he wants to frighten a group of monkeys, and even Yingka is afraid that he will have to collect some non-dividing hearts! So this credit is even greater than Fu Heng's Jinchuan expedition to Burma! He paused for a moment and said with a smile, "But Fukangan has already made the duke, and there is no more to seal it, but to reward the manor items to show the emperor's favor." ”

"This is the biggest victory of the imperial court in the field campaign since the third year of Yongzheng, and the battle will determine the southwest." Ah Gui avoided Nian Qianyao's name and said happily, "It is indeed a great event in the court world, I think I might as well take out more silver to extravagance." The emperor's southern tour has the role of decorating the world, and the promotion of civil rule and martial arts can go hand in hand, and it is the same to educate the world and set an example for future generations. Urged Ge Luo to escort the prisoners of war to Beijing quickly and safely, sacrifice the prisoners at the noon gate, and show the world on the spot, and the Ministry of Rites formulated rituals to sacrifice to the Taimiao Temple and the Temple of Heaven. The title of Fukangan can not be promoted again, but the position can be promoted, and the titles of the servant general, the minister of the guard, and the crown prince can be determined by the emperor. This is not only about Fukangan's own merits and the court's reward system, but more importantly, it is important to use this matter to promote martial arts to boost the official morale of the people, and set an example for the children of the Eight Banners to follow and show the world! ”

Everyone listened, and at first felt that Ah Gui was a bit pretentious, and they couldn't figure out his thoughts. Fukangan is still young, and he has already reached the extreme, so he has no head and no brains to add a title, what should he do if he makes meritorious contributions? Or the next military setback, how to turn around? How should others be rewarded for their greater achievements? This may not be a blessing for Fukangan himself. After hearing it, I tasted it: now that the officialdom is demolished and dirty, the people's morale is sluggish, and the prestige of the imperial court is gradually changing, commending such a mighty general does have the effect of shaking the deaf and changing the ears and eyes...... Before thinking about it, Qianlong was already full of joy, and patted the kang table with his right hand and said: "This is really Lao Cheng's view of the country!" You can leave some leeway in your position, and then give him a first-class duke, and receive the rank of Wuwei general - the noon gate parade to offer prisoners, and the temple of heaven will be made by the Ministry of Rites. As he spoke, he suddenly remembered Ji Yun, with him, he could write a memorial article beautifully...... After thinking about it, he said: "Send the decree to the Hanlin Academy, write a good article, and write a lyric to celebrate the pacification of Jinchuan, and make a music for Changyin Pavilion, which is easy to use during the outing ceremony." Ji - I just look at the one named Cao Xibao and write it into the Imperial Review. He looked at Liu Yong and asked, "Why don't you speak?" ”

"The minister is thinking about Jinchuan's establishment of liuguan." Liu Yong pondered, saw the question, and hurriedly bowed down and replied, "There are all ethnic groups in Jinchuan in this place, and they have always lived together and cultivated customs. Manchu and Han officials went to rule...... It is a place where gold is produced, and there are many folk customs and no understanding, so it is very difficult to stir up trouble. In the humble opinion of the ministers, it is better to have a green battalion stationed in Dajinchuan, not to levy or supply, and not to interfere in Jinchuan politics, which is equivalent to a camp station. There were originally thirteen small toasts under the Shaluoben tribe, and there were no longer big toasts on the top, and the small toasts were divided into their own territories, and the Miao Yao and other clans were also divided and ruled. Without a unified big mind, these little toasts will fight at most, what kind of climate can they become? The soldiers of the camp here are stationed, and they can be pressed at any time when major events come out, and any monkey who is not honest will be a stick, and there will be no more chaos in the gathering of Salopun to disobey the order. As soon as his words fell, He Shen immediately echoed and said with a smile: "Liu Yong's suggestion to save money, effort and trouble is more thoughtful than I thought!" Yu Minzhong also said: "Okay! Qianlong looked at Ah Gui.

Ah Gui's vigorous eyebrows were pressed low. After listening to Liu Yong's words, he looked up and saw Qianlong looking at him, he bowed down with a smile and said, "Liu Yong can be said to have no last resort. Divide and conquer the land into a prison, and the interests of each territory are different, so that there will be no major disputes again. But Jinchuan is actually a military stronghold, which can be of greater use. The minions thought that there was no **, and that they should set up a town to send heavy troops, 3,000 troops in Dajinchuan, 2,000 troops in Xiaojinchuan, a member of the general army in Lewu, two members of the guerrilla, two members of the capital division, and two members of the garrison. The green camp in western Sichuan can be moved to the area of Qingshui Pond of Shujing Temple. He crossed his fingers one by one, looked up at Qianlong who was listening quietly, and said, "In this way, there will be 50,000 permanent troops." The role is no longer a matter of local appeasement and stability in Jinchuan, it can control the South Qinghai Road in the north, Yungui in the south is called to come, and the passage in Tibet is much closer than that of eastern Sichuan and southern Sichuan. The minions mean to make good use of the important military town of Jinchuan and turn it into a big barracks in my Qing Dynasty, and there is nothing wrong with calling it 'Jinchuan Daying'! Your Majesty, you think, Qinghai Luobuzang Tenzin rebelled that day, if Jinchuan has troops to respond, why do you need to transfer troops from Xi'an Pass? Send a general to lead the Jinchuan soldiers to raid and march from Aba, and enter in two days! ”

Qianlong raised his eyebrows and listened quietly. He also has a map in his heart, with Ah Gui's fingers, Jinchuan's role in the military is becoming clearer and clearer, from a Jinchuan to control the two provinces of Qinghai and Tibet, and can respond to Yunnan, Guizhou and Guangxi at any time, this account is too shrewd! Everyone is immersed in the joy of Fukangan's victory, just to stabilize Jinchuan and one place, Ah Gui can break this limitation and think about the overall situation of the world from one place, which is really worthy of the prime minister's mind! He thought a little excitedly along this line of thought, got up and got off the kang without saying a word, and paced with his hands behind his back. He rarely does this, he has never listened to politics and discussed politics like an old monk sitting in the end, and he didn't move for an hour or two, and several ministers saw that his expression suddenly changed, and they all straightened up and stared at Qianlong without blinking.

"This is a permanent army of 55,000 men." Qianlong finally spoke, "The road weather is not good...... The construction of the barracks of the army, heating in winter, and the supply of food and salary...... How much money do you need on a daily basis? He suddenly looked at He Shen.

He Shen's heart was in turmoil, in Ah Gui's words, he was a "blind bag" in military affairs, Ah Gui's words sounded reasonable, Qianlong's scruples were also reasonable, he could only follow Qianlong's thoughts, because he laughed dryly and said: "The military salary alone, the monthly expenditure is also 80,000 silver, because the road is not good, the grain is transported from Chengdu, and there are vegetables, vegetables and meat, and it takes three catties of grain to transport it to one catty, and the tofu is also dished into the price of meat." The bricks, tiles and ash used to build the barracks had to be carried manually, which was really expensive. Now the silver for the Old Summer Palace project is tight, and the army of Fukangan will also have a reward of one million silver, as well as the silver for the bereavement of the families of the dead......"

"No matter how hard it is, you have to do it! If you don't have the money to do business, what use do you want you and Shen to do? Qianlong cut him off without waiting for him to finish, "You have to plan carefully according to Ah Gui's rules!" ”

One sentence made He Shen's eyes widen, and everyone realized that He Shen had misunderstood the "holy will" this time, and he had never lost his hooves, Ah Gui Liu Yong and Yu Minzhong secretly felt relieved. He Shen was stunned for a moment and suddenly understood, but he was the most able to stand up to the cylinder, like a clay man with no temper, only stunned for a moment, his expression was as usual, his heart was not beating, his face was not red, he smiled blinking, and said: "The slave is ignorant, he only thinks about the use of money, and he can be frugal and move around, so that he will not be shy in his pocket when he encounters major events." It's still what the master said, this is a big 'business', no matter how tight it is, you can't care about this silver! Since the army is stationed there, the slave suggested that another post road should be built to go up, from the Shujing Temple to the Dajinchuan and Xiaojinchuan and then to the south, and the ancient post road is connected, forming a grid, the army is transferred and transferred, and the transportation of grain, vegetables and vegetables is convenient and money-saving. This is also a matter of once and for all, please judge the master! ”

The wind on his head bears the shaft between the items, the canopy is fast and natural, and even admits the mistake with suggestions and makes witty words, the embarrassment of the idea is suddenly gone, Qianlong smiled: "You are in charge of money, it is not a big mistake to think about frugality." It's good to think about repairing the post road, and the Ministry of Engineering will go to someone to investigate it, and allocate the official bank to handle it as soon as possible. Now that the garrison is moving to defend and build a camp, you also have to sum up with the officers of the military department how much money to allocate from the main items of the household department. Liu Yong also said at the moment that escorting prisoners all the way to the guard, Jinchuanfu went through the war, how to settle refugees, how to prosper in life, how Chengdu took care of the wounded soldiers, and how the army returned to the camp to supply all the way. Ah Gui thought about it again from his words, and said: "There is a lot of arable land in Jinchuan, but hunting and grazing there have been passed down from generation to generation, and they are not used to planting. The slaves have been in Gubeikou and Zhangjiakou to have fields, and the land in Jinchuan is so fertile that it is oily and the water is convenient, what is there to do? Three soldiers opened an acre of land, two errands and one person cultivated, took turns to cultivate, grow grain and vegetables. When the local people saw that the officials and soldiers were doing well, they naturally followed suit. When Jinchuan's agriculture prospers, even if there is no levy, the garrison can be expected to raise grain on the spot and be self-sufficient. ”

"Good! Brainstorming is all in the best of the way. Qianlong turned around and sat on the edge of the kang and said with a smile, "Yu Minzhong went down to write a letter to Ge Luo, gave him a thorough understanding of today's meeting, and sent out the decree one by one." Liu Yong urged to quickly escort Sonomu to Beijing, pay attention to the Tao, starve to death, kill himself from illness and escape or be kidnapped, it is to sweep away my face, and the magistrate will not escape the death penalty! He paused for a moment, and then said, "Baoyue Tower is completed, and I will go to see it tomorrow." He Shen Yu Minzhong drove with him and handed the sign in a little earlier. The two hurriedly left their seats and agreed, and Yu Minzhong asked, "Is it a car or a legal driver?" The minister informed the Ministry of Rites to prepare. ”

"No need, then half of the city will be alarmed by a toss." Qianlong said, "Just use eight people to carry the warm sedan chair over, and you will ride with you." Just be it...... Stay with Shen for a while, and you can kneel down......"

After Yu Minzhong and the three of them resigned, Qianlong waved his hand and ordered the eunuchs to withdraw from the warm pavilion. Seeing that he suddenly became a little sneaky, He Shen seemed to be smiling at himself, but he didn't know what was going on, so he blinked his eyes and asked carefully, "Your Majesty...... Do you have a word for your minions? ”

"It doesn't matter." Qianlong glanced at the outer hall, opened his mouth, and was silent for a while before saying, "The Huo Jizhan woman you said is still outside the noon gate?" ”

"Yes! Without the express order, of course they have to wait! He Shen replied, and in a blink of an eye, he already understood Qianlong's intentions, grinned and hurriedly stopped, and said solemnly, "The emperor is too busy with government affairs, and this matter is handed over to the slaves." The servants will go at this time, and order them all to be detained in Xian'an Palace, and select a few outstanding ones to be placed in the Big Six Institute. The slave is a knower when he sees the peony flower, so he can explain to her and call her to wait. He pursed his lips and thought about it, and said, "This is above board. Master Rong wants to use locals to make food, our people in the Central Plains can't make that flavor, the emperor will pick a few people first, who dares to chew the root of the tongue? ”

"Okay, you can arrange it." Qianlong smiled and pointed to the west and north, "Don't ask them to pick out it...... Go ahead! ”
