Volume 7 Confusion Chapter 31 Thunder

In the evening after a rainy day, Hesheri died in his own dormitory in Changchun Palace.

Before she died, she had been in the Buddhist hall, so the people in the harem speculated that Chunxi deliberately let her suffer from the wind and cold, causing her to die. But the fact is that when Chunxi knew that Jing Hao was seriously ill, the imperial doctors who stayed in the palace went to Changchun Palace to treat Jing Hao. It's a pity that Jinghao was weak, and even taking the decoction every day was useless, and he died of illness within a few days.

Jinghao's death made everyone in the palace a little afraid of Chunxi. People who don't know what to do don't know why Jing Hao offended Chun Xi, which led to such an end. But there are also many people who think that it is true that they can't stand the suffering, and they can put their lives in the Buddhist hall. After all, I haven't heard of the monks in the temple or the nuns in the nunnery who died of illness while praying for blessings in front of the Buddha.

Many concubines and concubines are chanting scriptures in the Buddhist hall of Shou'an Palace day and night, and they have always lived well. But only Jing Hao, went to the Buddha hall and dedicated his life to the Buddha.

Regarding Jing Hao's death, there are different opinions and no conclusions. But because of this incident, it has become very different in everyone's eyes.

And half a month after Jinghao's death, Chun Xi once said during the discussion: "If there are people in the palace who have bad intentions, they will not be spared." ”

At this point, everyone is in danger, and they don't know when they made a mistake and lost their lives because of something.

Tong Ruohua, who had been waiting to watch the play, saw that Jing Hao died like this, and he was also glad for himself. Fortunately, she was not stupid enough to go against Chun Xi and delusionally think about the power that she couldn't get. Living under the wings of others like this is a comfortable and comfortable life.

Naturally, Tong Ruohua is not a person who strives for fame and fortune. In the past, the shelves were put out for people to see, but now she feels that if she wants to survive in the palace, it is best not to offend anyone, and everyone can please a few points, so that it can last for a long time.

Of course, Tong Ruohua is not the only one who understands this. Wang Meiyu has long figured out her situation, if she is not protected by a strong person, she will not be able to move an inch in the palace. She is not from a noble background, she is not even a flag person, she is just a complete Han girl. In this Forbidden City, which is full of Manchu military flags and Han military flags, she is humble and pitiful. It's just that Wang Meiyu is not discouraged, but feels that she is favored because of her appearance, which is also her blessing. As fate would have it, she had to firmly grasp her luck.

Therefore, she was able to give birth to a son of Sixteen Elder Brother Yinlu again last year. It is her blessing, but also her intelligence, and the luck that she gets by knowing how to advance and retreat.

Of course, after Jinghao's death, Yuan Que's daughter Linlang was brought back to Yuan Que and raised by herself as an exception. This also made Yuan Que grateful to Chunxi and others. When she knew Jinghao's true face, Yuan Que always looked forward to taking Linlang back to her side, but her position was only in the noble, and she had no right to raise children. Now, Yuan Que gets what he wants, and every day he will go to Yikun Palace and Yonghe Palace to ask Chunxi and Lan Xin for peace, and he will often bring some of his own embroidery to the eleventh elder brother Yinyu and the fourteenth elder brother Yinzhen.

Some people understand this truth, but there are still people who don't quite understand it.

There are many people who are not used to seeing the pampered and arrogant appearance of Chunxi, let alone the abuse of power by her and Lan Xin, and the methods used to deal with the enemy. There are also many people who are desperate to violate the palace rules, and Chunxi never relents and imposes heavy penalties to set an example.

Such a thunderous method made everyone in the Six Palaces cry bitterly, but they did not dare to disobey it. But such a method is really effective, and gradually no one dares to challenge the authority of the fourth concubine.

At the same time, several large armies on the expedition also encountered tribulations.

The commander of the Western Route Army, the general of Fuyuan, Feiyangu, and the general Sun Sike, the general of Zhenwu, were originally scheduled to meet in Wengjin on the ninth day of April, but when the troops led by Sun Sike crossed the desert, they encountered heavy wind and rain for several days, horses and animals were killed, water and grass were scarce, and the soldiers were cold and hungry, so that on April 11, Fang caught up with Feiyangu at Chahan and counterattack near Wengjin.

In order to speed up the march, Feiyangu changed his original plan and selected 4,000 elite soldiers from Sun Sike's army to accompany him, leaving the remaining half to stay in Ongin to guard the grain, and the other half to follow behind; and reported to Xuan Ye that the Western Route Army arrived in Tula on April 30. Xuan Ye then ordered the middle route army to wait slowly, so as not to be too prominent in the middle route and be attacked by the enemy; The Western Route Army accelerated its advance. Because Galdan burned all the grass in the area where the Western Route Army passed, Feiyangu was forced to make a detour and did not reach Tula until May 4.

On the 8th day of the first month of May, Xuan Ye led the Middle Route Army to the Krulun River and approached the Galdan camp.

When Galdan learned that he was personally on the expedition, he climbed the mountain and looked at it from afar, and saw that the army was lined up on its wings and the camps were all over the field, as if it had fallen from the sky, so he abandoned all the tents and equipment and fled.

Xuan Ye ordered the Minister of the Interior, Ma Sika, to be the general of Pingbei, and led the troops to pursue for several days, and Galdan fled to Telerjikou in a hurry. Fuyuan general Feiyangu was leading the Western Route Army to the north, and reported the traces of Galdan, that is, he ordered Shuo Dai and others to fight and retreat, and lured Galdan to Zhaomoduo, which was based on the Kent Ridge in the north, hills in the east, and rivers in the west.

On the thirteenth, Feiyangu divided his troops into four teams: the east flank was the capital and the Eight Banners of Xi'an, the Chahar Mongol soldiers, and the high place of the camp; The west wing is the green flag soldiers led by the Datong general soldier Kang Tiaoyuan, the right guard eight banner soldiers, and the Khalkha Mongolian soldiers, which are deployed along the river; General Sun Sike led the Green Banner officers and soldiers to occupy the hill in the center, and the general Feiyanggu commanded the army behind. In accordance with Xuan Ye's previous strategy, the Qing army dismounted and fought on foot, waiting for the order to charge again.

After the formation was completed, Galdan led more than 2,000 cavalry to the front of the formation, and the command post dismounted to resist the battle, concentrating his troops to storm the mountain. Galdan and his wife, Anu, also braved their arrows to fight. Sun Sike ordered his troops to hold their positions and fiercely fought back with firearms, bows and arrows. From noon to dusk, the two sides were indistinguishable from each other.

In the battle, Yin Huaxing, the general soldier of Ningxia, suggested; Out of two strange troops, respectively attack the flank of the quasi-army, plus a frontal combined attack, it will be victorious. This suggestion was adopted by Feyangu.

Fei Yanggu ordered to ride in ambush along the river, rushed into the battle horizontally, and attacked the baggage behind him, and Sun Sike's army on the mountain also shouted and flanked.

The Galdan army was immediately in disarray, and Galdan fled first, and the remnants collapsed. Feiyangu Mingjiao ordered to go on the horse in pursuit, and the Qing army pursued to Telerjikou by separate routes, and pursued and killed more than 30 miles under the moon.

The Qing army beheaded more than 2,000 people and captured more than 100 people, Galdan only escaped with a few horses, and his wife Anu was shot to death.

After winning the battle, Xuan Ye led the middle route army back to the capital and ordered Feiyangu to stay in Ketu.

The news of Jing Hao's death had already reached Xuan Ye's ears, but because he was away on an expedition, Xuan Ye didn't have time to express his position, but just asked the fourth concubine to take care of Jing Hao's afterlife.

This time, Suo Etu accompanied Xuan Ye to drive the expedition, and the credit was not small, and as soon as he came back, he got the news that Jing Hao was dead, and he was furious.

As Jinghao's uncle, Suo Etu naturally didn't want to accept the result of her death due to illness, and played three or four times, hoping that Xuanye could find out the truth and Zhaoxue for Jinghao. It's just that Xuan Ye was unmoved and ignored his excerpts, which made Suo Etu deeply disappointed.

On the second day of Xuan Ye's return to Beijing, Chun Xi came to the Qianqing Palace to prepare lunch for Xuan Ye, and happened to meet Suo Etu who came to meet Xuan Ye in person.

"See Concubine Yi." Suo Etu made a thousand respectfully, but there was no smile on his face, and even a little hatred.

Chun Xi didn't laugh angrily, and said lazily: "Lord Suo is polite, the emperor is busy, and he may not have time to see you." I'm afraid that what Lord Suo asked for will not be granted. ”

"Concubine Yi Niangniang is now covering the sky with one hand in the palace, isn't it even the major affairs of the court, Niangniang has to take care of it?" Suo Etu blushed and was very displeased.

Chun Xi covered his mouth and smiled: "Master Suo is too worried, don't wear a high hat on the head of the palace." Although the main palace has the right to be a director, it is not the only one who has such rights. All the things in the harem are the result of the discussion of the four concubines. As for the affairs of the court, the palace has always been reluctant to interfere. ”

"What Niangniang has done, I know best. It's better to admit it yourself, so as not to be pierced in the future and have a bad face. Suo Etu snorted lightly, not wanting to look at Chunxi again, don't turn his head to look at the other side.

Chun Xi said quietly: "What this palace has done is naturally clear, what Lord Suo and Concubine Jing have done, I think you must know more in your hearts." If Lord Suo insists on going his own way, this palace will not feel that the truth is revealed. As long as Lord Suo is willing, this palace can let the truth be revealed to the world. It's just, Master Suo, are you really willing? ”

When he said this, Suo Etu's face changed greatly, and he couldn't say a word.

In fact, Chun Xi blatantly killed Jing Hao, but it made Suo Etu have a hard time. Jing Hao was punished for making mistakes, and everyone in the Six Palaces knew it. Jing Hao's body is weak, and everyone in the hospital knows about it. And Jing Hao couldn't bear to suffer, and after falling ill in the Buddhist hall, Chunxi also lined up a group of doctors from the Tai Hospital to diagnose and treat her every day. Until death, there was nothing wrong with Chunxi. Even if it is investigated, at most it will be a lax discipline, so that the caretaker will make a big mistake regardless of the life and death of the imperial concubine.

However, Suo Etu could not guarantee that there was no evidence that Jing Xi had killed Yunyue in his hands. If Chun Xi exposed this matter, Jing Hao's reputation would be greatly damaged after his death, and it would also bring shame to the Hesheri family, and it would also affect Yinren's position as the crown prince. At that time, the gains outweighed the losses.

It was precisely because Suo Etu had calculated that Suo Etu did not dare to really pursue it, so he would act so boldly.

This dumb loss, Suo Etu can only admit it by himself, and he will not say anything about Jing Hao's death, only keep silent.

In order to appease the anger between Suo Etu and Chunxi, Xuan Ye issued an order to posthumously crown Hesheli Jinghao as Concubine Ping.

After death, it was glorious to be crowned a concubine, but Jinghao was tortured to death, and she was named a concubine because of others, which can be regarded as a humiliation for Jinghao.

Chunxi didn't care about her concubine, although Jing Hao's death was regarded as avenging Yunyue, she was always a little unhappy in her heart. She only hopes that her emotions will disappear with the passage of time. She didn't want to carry resentment forever, so that the people around her would not be happy, and the deceased would blame themselves.
