328. People are not as good as heaven (I)
June of the eleventh year of Yongzheng
Yongzheng's trip to the summer resort finally ended my year-long nervousness--- this year, I was passive everywhere. The most serious thing is that after the university scholar Ortai and the deputy general Zhang Guangsi impeached Ning Yuan's general Yue Zhongqi, they lost their fighter planes because of their stubbornness, causing the Dzungars to invade Hami, plunder livestock, and rob grain and wages. And I, unexpectedly, lost the general, and by the time I had time to react, Yue Zhongqi had already been detained by the Ministry of Military Detention, and he was stripped of his position.
For a time, the government and the opposition were changing rapidly, and everyone was in danger for fear of having anything to do with me......
It is impossible for such a steady person as Yue Zhongqi to be stubborn and self-serving, and it is impossible to miss the fighter, but this is not important, this can only reflect my negligence---- I am not careful enough, I have been in Beijing for a long time, and I can actually let such a thing happen under my nose, and I actually didn't hear a little rumor, I am the real missed fighter--- the person who punished this is not Yue Zhongqi, it is me, I am a woman after all, I don't know the truth of preemptive strike, and then strike second!
Yin, you are more ruthless than me, we have waited for so long, but in the end, you can't help but move your hand on me first......
"Sister, even if there is no Yue Zhongqi, it does not mean that the 400,000 troops in the northwest have returned to His Majesty's hands, sister, you have been operating in the northwest for a long time, and those soldiers only respect the orders of the generals and do not obey the military orders, it is not easy for the emperor to mobilize so many troops." My sister comforted me.
"I know that." If Yin can move the troops in the northwest, then I only have the money and food in Jiangnan and the guards in the palace in my hands. "He doesn't need those burdens in the northwest at all, just let the 400,000 army without a leader, so that he can't use me and I can't use it, it's enough to force me to death!"
Politics comes out of the barrel of a gun, what is the use of a bare-bones commander without soldiers? Now I have so many gold mines left to me by the eighth elder brother, but there is no place for heroes, do I want to use silver to smash Emperor Yongzheng to death?
"Sister. You must not go with you on this trip to Rehe! "Now my only insurance is that the guards around the emperor are still ours, but now such an insurance has become uninsured---- because the emperor has already set off to Chengde, and when Chengde is too far away from me, anything can happen. The emperor may be out of my control, and once my sister leaves the palace, she will become my control.
Originally, he left the capital, and I still had a chance to win back a game. But taking my sister hostage, I didn't even have the slightest chance.
"Sister, you think so, Your Majesty will too, I've been pretending to be sick for several days." My sister also knows my concerns, but this time the opponent is none other than what he knows about us. He had the advantage: "Your Majesty sent the imperial doctor to ask for a pulse sooner or later, and I won't be able to delay it for a few more days." ”
Due to the illness of the seventeenth elder brother, he could not withstand the fatigue of the journey. Since that year, I have never followed every summer vacation. So I don't go for good reason. Yongzheng Ye can't help me. The bad thing is that my sister has been driving since Kangxi. If my sister doesn't go, it will be suspicious.
"What can I do?" I walked around irritably---- angry at my weakness. If only I had been willing to strike first. If it ---, "in fact, the capital is not safe." His Majesty took most of the guards in the palace away. The guards of the capital were handed over to the infantry commander Yamen. That's all the emperor's people! ”
But compared to my sister in Rehe, I'm still a little safer. One is that I still have some hope for Yongzheng---- he will beat me in the struggle for power. But not enough to want to put me to death; But. Yongzheng also didn't allow me to install a few guards around him. He may not be able to substitute the land that I have ready. I'm at a disadvantage right now anyway. He's not going to gamble with me.
That's if you really don't believe in feelings. Then believe in strength!
"Sister. If I had gone to Chengde, things would have really changed. Then don't worry about my sister. Keep the calendar. Sister please! ”
I stared at my sister stupidly---- she was such a person. Withheld for nearly twenty years. Everything is won in hand. Now she told me that I didn't have to worry about her. Don't. Was it really so bad that she had prepared for the worst?
Still is. Sister, you're sure you say that. Surely I will not give up on you? The third day of August in the eleventh year of Yongzheng
There are two things that happened today, the first thing is that Emperor Yongzheng actually went against the norm and ordered to return to Beijing early---- the reason why it is abnormal is because it has been twenty-five years since the last time he returned to Beijing from Chengde ahead of schedule. And last time, as soon as he came back, he abolished the prince.
So this time, his abnormal decision made the already tense situation in the capital even more noisy, and even worse, it was rumored that Emperor Yongzheng had been extremely dissatisfied with Prince Bao who had contradicted him several times, and even rumored that Yongzheng was going to issue an order to dispose of Bao Qin like he did when he disposed of Hongshi
"Qiyun, what do you think Your Majesty meant, will it ......" Seventeenth Elder Brother's pupils shrank, he has always been gentle, and rarely has such a ruthless expression.
"Probably not." In fact, my competition with Yongzheng is only temporary, because there is no big dispute about the ownership of the throne in the end, so I have never had any sense of life and death---- what I rely on is history. In the history I know, Emperor Qianlong is the longest reigning emperor in ancient China, which I am very relieved of, I never thought that this would be changed! "Hongyang does not have the talent of an emperor, Your Majesty knows this very well, and the remaining prince is too young, Your Majesty will not be so impulsive." Unless......
I can't believe it's going to happen unless I'm dead!
"But if I go back to Beijing early, I will have a plan, I'm afraid of ----"
"You don't have to be afraid, maybe the emperor is just tired of playing, and he will make a joke with us, and he may hide aside and laugh when we are nervous...... "It's impossible!"
This may happen if it is changed to Kangxi, but Emperor Yongzheng will not, because he is Yin---- so indifferent and serious, so that a man will not joke in his life, and it is estimated that if he says it, it will be a cold joke.
When I say this, I just comfort Elder Brother Seventeen---- the weather is too hot, he can't be too worried, and my worries can't solve the problem......
"I'm worried about something else right now." Finding that my comfort didn't have any effect on Seventeenth Elder Brother at all, I immediately changed the subject and talked about it: "Big Elder Brother is sick. In fact, he has been locked up until today, and he is already very sick. But this time, the Imperial Doctor estimated that he would not be able to pass this hurdle......
"Oh......" The seventeenth elder brother was really not interested in this, I sighed secretly in my heart, this is the family affection in the center of imperial power---- in the early years of Yongzheng, because we were all busy accumulating strength. The crown prince, the third elder brother, and the fifth elder brother passed away one after another. (Prince, the third elder brother belongs to our deliberate disregard, and we originally thought they were superfluous.) )
And now, the older prince, and the eldest brother is still alive. However, looking at the expression of the seventeenth elder brother, you can know that the eldest brother --- belongs to the same level as a cat and a dog for him.
"I don't like it or not, I only have a relationship with him, but I have been taking care of him for so many years---- "Maybe it's because of Ke'er!" Because I can't save her, because she has a trace of concern in the world. On the contrary, I am very interested in the big brother.
Every year when I send someone to deliver something to him, people ask him---- Do you remember a little Mongolian princess named Ke'er? I don't know why I'm so persistent after 20 years---- or is it that I am actually an amorous person, I can't stand the tragedy that happened in front of my eyes, I just want a perfect result?
"This time I sent someone to see him, and he actually told me that he remembered, and he asked me if he would fulfill his request if he remembered......"
"What did he remember?"
He remembered that he had gone out to Gerdan that year, and they had won. Your emperor asked him what reward he wanted, and he said that he wanted to marry the great Gege of the Ilgen Kyoro family. I smiled faintly, people, why do you have to be so stupid, you have to pursue a result, but when the result came out, I found that it was not what I wanted: "The emperor approved, he was very happy, and when he came back, he saw that there were soldiers bullying the captured Mongolian princess, and he remembered his fiancée in the distance." As soon as I was happy, I saved her......"
If there is a spirit in the sky, the guest will definitely cry, right? She repaid his favor with her life. It's just that in order to love him honestly, the result is ---- kindness back then. It's just a temporary love house and black ......
"Big brother, what did big brother ask for?"
"He knows his fortune. That is, the big Gege of the Ilgen Jueluo family died early because of his involvement. This is also the reason why he has refused to wake up for many years, he hopes that he can sweep the grave of his wife before he dies...... "I did it for a long time, I thought about it for a long time, it turned out that it was still for other women, and the guest lost really completely!"
"Big brother is a real man!" The seventeenth elder brother suddenly sighed.
"Why do you say that?" The problem between the guest and the eldest brother has been bothering me for twenty years, I actually hate the eldest brother, I think he is too affectionate, but I can't imagine that the seventeenth elder brother would say such a thing to me.
"If he pretended to regret it back then, if he only needed to express his longing for Ke'er a little, do you think you would let him go?" The seventeenth elder brother suddenly shook his head: "Qiyun, you are too persistent, you have tormented him for twenty years, you can't forgive him for forgetting Ke'er." But have you ever thought that her unwillingness to be sober does not mean that she is really stupid, he knows that with your rights, he can lift his captivity at any time. But he didn't, maybe he didn't save Ke'er at all, but he didn't want to admit it, because his fortune was ......"
Is that so? There is no negative heart, but his heart is long gone, and his fortune has long been gone......
"Promise Big Brother!" Because if he were the eldest brother, he would insist on not wanting to get up......
At the end of August of the 11th year of Yongzheng, the emperor returned to the court, and the first thing he did was to crown the Xi Guifei as the Xi Huang Guifei, but moved the Xi Huang Guifei's bedroom from Jingren Palace to the Yongshou Palace closest to him, and claimed that the Huang Guifei felt cold after returning---- which was called Jiafeng, but in fact, it was surveillance.
Immediately afterwards, on the grounds that Prince Bao Hongli needed to be trained, he was asked to take the Son of Heaven to inspect the Qiantang River and Haitang that were about to be built......
In order to prevent changes, the crown prince never left Beijing easily, and Yongzheng couldn't be the kind of emperor who couldn't even think of this---- what's going on? Could it be that there is another unexpected variable on the Chengde side?
