Kangxi's eyes were full of loneliness, and he said gloomily: "Shengming, if I am really Shengming, how can there be such a situation?"

Chen Tingjing has always adhered to the tenet of "the lord worries about the humiliation of the ministers, and the lord humiliates the ministers to death", and when he heard Kangxi so sad, he couldn't help but panic, and hurriedly knelt down and admonished: "The ministers think that the emperor should not be so self-deprecating." Reading the book // Although Geldan led the rest of the troops to escape this time, the Dzungar Department suffered tens of thousands of casualties in the battle through Ulan Butong, and Geldan was greatly injured. The minister concluded that he no longer had the strength to provoke the imperial court. The emperor's personal expedition this time, caused by Long Wei, the soldiers used their lives, even if it was not very complete, it was a great victory!"

Kangxi smiled to himself and said, "I can't help but feel restless, so I have a little bit of depression." I understand what you're saying. I also thought that the various tribes of Mobei Mongolia have always been just nomadic herders, and have never had the habit of settling. The same is true for its operations, they will leave after the fight, and they will just grab the light. Moreover, there was no absolute subordination between the tribal leaders and their subordinates, and the reason why Geldan was able to rally and gather tens of thousands of Dzungar soldiers and horses relied on his victories to conquer other Mongol tribes, thus plundering a large amount of booty and slaves. But this defeat will inevitably make Geldan lose this appeal. I expected that even if Geldan escaped, he would inevitably encounter a situation where the people who depended on him would flee one after another. You have another decree, so that the surrounding garrison of the Fengtian general Sunu, the Heilongjiang general Sabusu and the Mongolian tribes, when Geldan's subordinates come to surrender, that is, treat them with the cattle and sheep in the pasture. However, it should be noted that it must be dispersed among other Mongolian ministries and cannot be reunited. ”

This time, Kangxi's analysis of the situation made Chen Tingjing really satisfied, and said: "The emperor is sage!"

Kangxi frowned slightly, and asked, "Earlier, you said that there was a shortage of grain and grass in the front camp, what is the situation?"

Chen Tingjing replied: "The minister received a letter from Prince Yu, saying that the grain and grass were only enough to sustain the army for ten days. The emperor ordered Xu Yuanwen to take charge of the errand of the household department in June this year, but since the minister is in front of the emperor, he is also very concerned about the military rations. The ministers mostly saw the household documents, saying that before the expedition, the army rations for the army in March had been mobilized by Shandong Zhili and transported to the front camp. It stands to reason that the surplus should not run out so quickly. The minister has just learned about this matter, and has not yet started a thorough investigation, and asked the emperor to show it. ”

Kangxi 'groaned' in his heart. Xu Yuanwen is Xu Qianxue's younger brother, and Xu Qianxue has turned to Suo Etu since the fall of Mingzhu. Suo Ming's two parties have always fought to the death, although with Mingzhu's dismissal, Suo Etu has the upper hand for a while, but Suo Etu has given Mingzhu some eye medicine in front of him from time to time, this time he appointed the eldest brother as the deputy marshal, and Suo Etu also had a lot of disrespectful words in private. Xu Yuanwen and Xu Qianxue, could the brothers make a fuss about military rations because they didn't want the eldest brother to make meritorious contributions? Or was this simply at the behest of Suo Etu and the crown prince? This military ration incident was purely an accident? Or could someone do something about it? Kangxi was also a little hesitant, but he couldn't risk the lives of the soldiers of the former battalion to gamble.

So Kangxi said categorically: "Immediately pass the decree and order Suo Etu Mingzhu and the two to supervise the military rations, within seven days, and they must raise it properly, otherwise don't blame the military law for being ruthless." Xu Yuan's Cultural Revolution was transferred to the Ministry of Deliberation, and Xu Qianxue was retained. ”

Chen Tingjing gasped when he heard this, he understood that Kangxi's handling of this must have put Xu Yuanwen into the Suo Party faction. He secretly complained for Xu Yuanwen. Xu Yuanwen was born in a famous family, is Gu Yanwu's nephew, and his brother Xu Qianxue and his brother Xu Bingyi are known as the "Kunshan Three Xu". The three of them successively ranked among the top three in the palace test. In particular, Xu Yuanwen is one of the leaders, the champion of the Shunzhi Dynasty. Moreover, Xu Yuanwen is upright, honest and honest, and has a straightforward personality, never tends to avoid disasters and welfare, and can abide by official proverbs, and the court is solemn, and his brother has no integrity, incorruptibility and shamelessness. Although Chen Tingjing is usually only a gentleman's friend with Xu Yuanwen, he has a good impression of him. Chen Tingjing had the heart to excuse him, so he said: "Your Majesty, Xu Yuanwen's transfer of the household department is still shallow, and the evacuation of military rations involves the household department, the military department, Shandong, and the ...... of the prefectures and counties directly under the government. ”

Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Kangxi: "Ziduan, this matter is arbitrary, and it must be discussed again." If Xu Yuanwen is not guilty, he will be returned to his innocence when the ministry is discussed, and I have not yet convicted him. ”

Seeing Kangxi's insistence, Chen Tingjing had no choice but to stop talking. Kangxi then waved his hand to make him kneel.

Tong Guowei hurried for half a day's journey, and he had already seen the prince's car from a distance. The formation of this car made Tong Guogong, who was accustomed to seeing big scenes, also shocked. Originally, Tong Guowei thought that the prince was just a light car, but he didn't expect that the prince's car was only slightly smaller than Kangxi's royal car. Together with the guards, the attendants, and the chariots and horses waiting for the servants, it stretched for half a mile. Moreover, the prince's car is driven in bright yellow color, if you don't get closer, you can see some apricot yellow decorative tassels, which is worthy of the emperor's score. Tong Guowei couldn't help but sneer secretly: With the measure of the crown prince, how can he be powerful all over the world? If you sit in the dragon court and still don't raise your tail to the sky?

Although Tong Guowei's heart was full of contempt, a smile appeared on his face, and he followed the guards who came forward, Tuo Heqi, and Lang Zhongling Pu of the Weaving Department of the Internal Affairs Office. Among them, Ling Pu has the deepest relationship with the prince, he is the prince's nurse, that is, the husband of the prince's nurse, who was originally an inferior coating, accounting for this relationship, and within a few years, he moved to the Langzhong of the Internal Affairs Office, mixing a three-grade top. Tuo Heqi is not a thing, his background is not bad, he is under the Yellow Banner, he was a distant relative of Prince An's Yue Le Mansion, so he got an errand in the Internal Affairs Office, and later his sister was elected to the palace, and was named a concubine, and also gave birth to the emperor's twelfth son, Yun Yu, relying on this relationship to rise to the treasurer of Guangshan Treasury. I don't want this person to be insatiable, and he will be ginseng for personal gain, if he didn't have the identity of a royal family, he would have been in the military a long time ago. Concubine Ding is an honest person, and she can't help her brother anything, so she looked for an opportunity to make friends with Ling Pu, and began to praise the prince's stinky feet. At this moment, the prince took the two of them to the Kangxi camp, the implication is self-evident, these two are the prince's henchmen, once Kangxi dies, relying on these henchmen, the prince plans to be the emperor in the dynasty.

Probably these two people have also been locked up a lot of * soup recently, thinking that the prince is about to take the throne, and he will naturally be able to be the minister of the Taiwan Cabinet, and Tong Guowei is just a flat salute, Tong Guowei doesn't care, and the two of them are very enthusiastic, only teach both of them to think that the situation has been decided, and even the members of the study, when the prince of the dynasty has begun to deliberately flatter, and this is also the effect of Tong Guowei.

When he arrived outside the prince's tent, the prince had already greeted him and stood in front with a smile. Looking closely, he really looks more and more like Kangxi, with a face like a crown of jade, two thick eyebrows, and the bridge of the nose is straight and straight, but the end of the nose is slightly hooked, and it is broken. Wearing a black fox crown, decorated with thirteen East Pearls, dressed in apricot yellow five claws and eight dragon satins, the collar table is sable, and the sleeves are sable, which is gorgeous and abnormal.

Tong Guowei bowed down and asked for peace according to the rules, if in normal times, the prince always did not wait for him to salute, so he used his hand to help, and at this moment he was so acceptable. Tong Guowei was even more disgusted: If you are not the emperor, do you want to make rules?
