Outside the study, Li Dequan pointed at Qin Fu with one hand, and scolded in a low voice: "Okay, you slave who doesn't have long eyes, what time has it been? Ah? Why haven't you changed the heat for the master? You must heat the master every two moments, this is the rule? You are dizzy? The master blames you, even I have to accompany you to the board!"

Qin Fu lowered his eyebrows and carefully argued: "Manager Li, the emperor just ordered that you should not disturb." Reading //"

Li Dequan snorted lightly and said, "Look at how many days have you been here?" The master is so hard, but he can't even eat the hot mouth. You heartless waste dim sum, hide aside, learn from me, and then clean you up later. As he spoke, he secretly looked into the house, and saw Kangxi holding the fold and reading it carefully, with a little joy between his eyebrows. Li Dequan knew that Kangxi's mood must be good at this time, so he took a cup of hot and a hot hand towel that had just been scalded and walked in.

Kangxi was probably deeply attracted by this twist and turn, and he didn't even notice Li Dequan when he walked to his side. Li Dequan said softly: "Master, it's almost the third watch, late autumn, the weather is cold, the servant served you a hot hand towel, sprinkled with rose fragrance on it, it's best to wake up, you can rest first." As he spoke, he handed over the handkerchief neatly.

Kangxi smiled slightly, and said: "The people who have been around me for a long time are suitable, and I really can't do without you Li Dequan by my side." As a result, Kangxi wiped the hand towel comfortably. I took the changed heat again and took a sip of it.

Li Dequan looked at Kangxi and said with a smile: "As long as the master is comfortable, it is the greatest blessing for the slave." The master must have a happy event today, and the slaves are happy to see it. ”

Kangxi couldn't help but smile on his face and said, "Yes, I was really relieved to receive the fourth elder brother and Feiyanggu's message just now." Read the book // Be thoughtful and forward-looking. All right. He was not very happy to speak, so he simply took the excerpt and read it.

"The pangut shotgun is a sharp weapon for attacking the city and defending the territory. However, Erchen was also worried that if there were hidden dangers in the manufacture and storage of this sharp weapon, if it was accidentally stolen by traitors and thieves such as Gerdan, it might endanger Gyeonggi, so Erchen specially asked the emperor to place the firearms and ammunition from the beginning of the manufacture and hand them over to the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Internal Affairs respectively to manage the ....... In this way, hidden dangers can be removed. If the army has a wide range of weapons, it can strengthen the current military strength of the Qing Dynasty, which is several times higher than before. On the occasion of Geerdan's several provocations to the imperial court, it is possible to use this firearm to increase the prestige of our Celestial Empire and extinguish Geerdan's arrogance, and Erchen implores the emperor to increase the number of current firearms battalions, and Erchen and Feiyangu are willing to train it into an army for the emperor as soon as possible, and when the battle with Geerdan, it will be a surprise soldier for our army. ”

"The fourth elder brother is loyal. Kangxi muttered.

saw Li Dequan standing on the ground with an embarrassed face. Kangxi immediately realized that he was a little too excited, and according to the ancestral training, eunuchs were not allowed to interfere in politics. So he smiled and said, "It's okay, as long as you control your mouth, I won't blame you for this." ”

Li Dequan was relieved and said, "What else does the master command?"

Kangxi said: "You will announce the throne of Tong in the study early tomorrow morning, Chen Tingjing, and Ma Qijin will see you." Then he thought about it again and asked, "Suo Etu is currently in Beijing?"

Li Dequan said: "I came back two days ago, and I handed over a sign to ask the master to hand over an errand, and the master said that he would see you in two days." ”

Kangxi said: "Yes, there have been a lot of things in the past two days, and I can't remember it clearly." Let him come with him tomorrow. Let's discuss the four elder brothers. ”

Li Dequan answered, and then gently covered the door and went out.

The next day, after consulting with the ministers of the study, Kangxi issued another edict to increase the internal firearms battalion. The original firearms battalion was used as the external firearms battalion. The inner firearms battalion is in the city, and there is a second battalion of guns. There are 2,516 shotguns, 880 gunshell shotguns, and 40 sub-cannons. Like the outer firearms battalion, the internal firearms battalion has 1 wing commander, 1 general wing commander, 1 battalion commander, 4 shotgun guards, 8 deputy shotgun guards, and 16 officers.

At the same time, Kangxi appointed Prince Yu Fuquan as the Minister of the Guard, and the Minister in charge of the Seal of the Arsenal of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. At the same time, on the grounds that Yinzhen and Feiyangu were honest, a level was added to the record. At the same time, the decree was issued, and Haiyu's words were absurd, and he was demoted to three levels to stay in office. It turned out to be a happy situation. Yin Zhen read the edict and was excited, at least the firearms and equipment have doubled, which is really a good start. When this crusade against Geerdan made Kangxi truly see the importance of firearms, it may not be feasible to popularize firearms and equipment in the flag camp and the green camp. It's just a little regret, I thought that Kangxi would hand over the training of the two firearms battalions to himself, but it's a pity.

What Yinzhen didn't know was that in fact, Kangxi was indeed preparing to entrust Yinzhen with the task of training the army. It's a pity that Prince Yinren hurriedly went to see Kangxi.

As soon as the prince entered the study, he knelt down after greeting him. Kangxi was a little puzzled, so he asked, "Yinren, but is there something wrong?" Get up and speak. ”

Yinren didn't move, and said: "Huang Ama, Erchen is here to ask for his life, and Erchen is also willing to go to the army to learn military affairs, please ask Huang Ama to give permission." ”

Kangxi smiled dumbly and said, "Why do you suddenly want to go to the army?"

Yinren said: "Erchen knows that Huang Ama has recently intended to conquer Geldan, and Erchen is willing to go on the expedition on behalf of Huang Amma." ”

Kangxi smiled: "It's good to have this thought, I'm very pleased." But you are in the center, and you should pay more attention to government affairs. ”

Yinren stubbornly said: "Erchen also wants to defend Huang Ama like the eldest brother and the fourth brother, and kill the enemy in front of the battle with Huang Ama." ”

Kangxi's face sank, and he said, "Are you going to kill the enemy, or do you want to fight for merit?"

Hearing Kangxi's heart-wrenching words, Yinren was a little panicked, he was indeed red in the eye, watching the eldest brother's reputation in the army growing, and even Kangxi's attitude towards him has improved greatly. The fourth Yinzhen, Kangxi was originally blue-eyed to him, this time he originally thought that after he went to study military affairs, he would rarely have the opportunity to compete with himself for the old man's sacred heart, but he didn't expect to be made by him to make a firearm and ammunition division and rule of Chen, deeply appreciated by Kangxi, if he didn't take the opportunity to get a piece of the pie, the position of the prince would be in jeopardy in the future, so he hurriedly came to see Kangxi to ask for an errand.

Looking at Yinren's somewhat flushed face, Kangxi softened a little, slowed down and said, "I actually put the burden of a thousand catties on your shoulders. If I am a pro-conscript, you will be the prince of the prison country. Food, grass, support, supply, I have handed over my backbone to you. In the days when I went to war, I would serve as auxiliary ministers and scholars of the study department, but you were my prince, and I counted on you to govern the vast country. Your brothers will also be in front of the battle, counting on your support. Do you understand?
