Ke Saha's complete finish suddenly gave a tranquilizer to the people who jumped up and down in the capital, and everyone understood people, and suddenly found that the wind was not in the right direction, and the Empress Dowager did not seem to be on their side, and immediately stopped.

The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang's 'appeasement' did make Aobai a lot more down-to-earth, so that Aobai's originally depressed face suddenly smiled again, in the final analysis, he Aobai is still the Optimus Pillar of the Qing Dynasty, anyway, this pair of orphans and widows still have to be supported by his Aobai.

Ao Bai let go of his heart, and at this time, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, who had been silent for a few days, issued a decree again, ordering Ao Bai to enter the palace to meet him. Xiaozhuang has issued a price code, and this price code is to help Aobai get rid of Suke Saha, and now, it is time for Aobai to contribute.

Ao Bai had been waiting for this moment to come, he was wearing a crane mending suit, a yellow coat inside, a ruby with dazzling eyes on his head, and an agate pearl on his chest.

When he arrived at the Shenwu Gate, the guards guarding the palace gate had already come to play a thousand invitations, and he didn't need to check the waist card to enter the palace, so he sent him into the palace wall with a smile.

Immediately on duty. The eunuch came to say goodbye, led Ao Bai to turn through the Taihe Hall from the left, and then entered the harem, and finally stopped in front of the Cining Palace.

After the little eunuch reported, Ao. Worship is regarded as entering the hall, and in the wing room of the left ear, the empress dowager and the young Kangxi are waiting for him on the kang.

"Bow down. Knock to see the emperor. Ao Bai didn't kneel, but just slightly slapped a thousand towards Kangxi, looking extremely arrogant.

"Greetings to the Empress Dowager!" Ao. Bai pinned his face to the old woman on the kang again, he wanted to do a thousand things, but after a turn of thought, he involuntarily knelt down.

Black. Ye's face was not good, he was half-nestled in Xiaozhuang's arms, and he didn't realize the worship in front of him. Xiaozhuang snorted, and after a moment of silence, he said leisurely: "Get up." ”

Ao Bai was shown on the face of Xiao Zhuang. The gloomy atmosphere made me a little uneasy, it stands to reason that this old woman has nothing to be afraid of, and it is better to call her the queen mother, not to listen to it, but it is just a woman who is about to enter the coffin, whenever Ao Bai thinks like this, but when he really faces this 'woman', he feels that a pressure that has never been felt before is pressed in his heart, and the weight makes him breathless.

Ao Bai cautiously got up. Heart. It's angry and stuffy. Angry is not angry. Show weakness in front of this old woman. It is because he is the commander of the Yellow Flag Guard, the Minister of Parliament, and the Commander of the Imperial Guard (the commander of the Emperor's Praetorian Guard). Promoted to Minister of the Interior. Accumulate the young master and the crown prince. Teach Wu Jinshi. Look at the court. There was no one to fight him again. But in the presence of this old woman. But he just lost his temper. Even the atmosphere of the exit depends on the old woman's face.

Hyo-joon squinted. Stroking the back of the braid. Youyou said: "Worship." Emperor Daxing is in Japan. The mourning family was seriously ill. How many years was that year? ”

Ao Bai suddenly raised his eyes and glanced at Xiaozhuang, who was immersed in the past. hurriedly replied: "It's the winter of the fourteenth year of Shunzhi."

”

"Yes!" Xiaozhuang nodded warmly: "That year, the snow was three inches thick. The eaves of the building were covered with spiky ice. The mourning family is very sick. The first emperor was anxious and was about to fall ill. It was you who served day and night by the side of the emperor and the mourning family. I can't even eat. ”

Ao Bai's heart warmed. At that time, it was still inside the guard. It's Shunzhi's front guard. At that time, Xiaozhuang was seriously ill. Shunzhi day and night waiter. Ao Bai was not idle. Wait in the palace day and night. I can't take care of my own rest and food. Deeply appreciated by Emperor Shunzhi.

Now that Ao Bai has become a minister, these past events have long been thrown out of the clouds, and he was suddenly brought up by Xiaozhuang, and he also felt warm in his heart.

"The first emperor has just ascended the throne, and the Manchu Dynasty is full of Dolgon's henchmen, and there are many people who echo Dolgon. Xiaozhuang's shriveled lips were like blowing out a spring breeze, telling Aobai's past exploits one by one.

"The battle of Phi Dao is also the cold nail that you sacrificed yourself to take the lead and rushed to Phi Dao, so that I was able to pull out the cold nail on my belly and back.

In the battle of Jinzhou, you still took advantage of the victory to pursue decisively, hit the Ming army's infantry position, and then defeat the Ming army. You charge into battle, take the lead, and win all five battles.

After entering the customs, Pingyanjing, Henan, Huguang, Jiangxi, Nanjing, Shaanxi, which time is not you to take the lead and win every battle? ”

Aobai's breathing began to increase, he seemed to see the young self in the Jin Ge Iron Horse rushing to the front, and the cities in front of him fell, and the beacons were everywhere, but the deep trenches of the high city could not stop him, he brandished a big knife, cut off his head, and rushed into the enemy formation again and again with the war horse under his knees.

Immediately after the world was calm, Huang Taiji died, he firmly stood on the side of the young lord Fulin, and confronted the powerful Dolgon, his situation was very dangerous, merit could not be rewarded, but was repeatedly suppressed, three times to death, and finally survived, becoming the most trusted confidant of Emperor Shunzhi.

And then what? Then Shunzhi died, and it was one again

Succession, but Aobai is no longer the former Aobai, the current Aobai) 3 is the patriarch of the three dynasties, but also the founding father, under his hands in the inner court, most of the soldiers and horses of the Eight Banners, Afu's henchmen are all over the government and the opposition, he has been pushed to the cusp, the supreme power of the empire is only one, now in the hands of Aobai, but what will happen in the future? In the future, the young emperor will grow up, and when he grows up, he will be pro-government, and after he is pro-government, he needs to take back all his rights, but he can't, Ao Bai knows in his heart that he has too many henchmen, and his political enemies are too many, once he loses his rights, the emperor who grows up will doubt him, and the henchmen will fall and scatter, and their political enemies will stand up, weave charges, impeachment, and never die.

That's it, either hold the power tightly and control the life and death of the people in the world, or retire by yourself, and finally be pulled out by someone to blame it, if you want to be a rich man, you can't get it, Ao Bai can only choose the former.

"Aobai, your great military exploits and your Geng Geng's loyal mourning family are all in mind, this is what the Qing Dynasty owes you, and it is also Fulin owes you, and Xuan will also thank you in the future." Xiaozhuang continued to chatter as if it were a 'family routine'.

"Don't dare to be a minister!" Ao Bai's knees were soft, and he knelt down again, he was first moved, then calm, and finally suspicious, how did Xiaozhuang bring up the past? Could it be that he is seeking for himself and deliberately showing weakness first?

"You deserve it." Xiaozhuang squinted his smiling face and lowered his head to look at Xuan in his arms: "Your Majesty, did you say it?" ”

"Yes, Ao Shaobao. I am a minister of the Great Qing Dynasty, I am still young, I can't take care of government affairs personally, doesn't the imperial grandmother often say, if there is no Ao Shaobao, there will be no today's orphans and widows? Xuan and his grandmother glanced at each other and said loudly.

Xiaozhuang sneered: "What lonely. Widows and widows, don't talk nonsense.

”

The grandfather and grandson said. After the conversation, Ao Bai felt even more confused, he had already felt the hostility of the young Xuan Ye towards him, he didn't expect to say this today, and listening to his orphans and widows' screams, it was obviously an unintentional word, Bacheng didn't deliberately soothe his own words, could it be that he was wrong in what he expected? Or is someone trying to sow distraction between the young king and himself? Thinking of this, Aobai's thick eyebrows couldn't help but sink slightly, who is this person?

"Aobai, get up quickly, don't be restrained, I think when you walked in the palace, I didn't see you like this, I think you are now in a high position, and there are countless pairs of eyes watching between words, for fear that someone will chew the root of your tongue, right? Don't pay attention to them, the mourning family and the emperor can trust you, that Suke Saha, who ran to the mourning family and the emperor all day long to say bad things about you, and now the mourning family has sent him to Ningguta, the mourning family wants to see who dares to make trouble all day long and sow discord. ”

Ao. Bai finally felt a little more relaxed, and his restraint was swept away, thinking that the Empress Dowager still trusted herself, and the emperor was still young, and if she spent more time playing with him, she might be able to get a good place in the future. Unconsciously, he began to loosen up again after being determined to monopolize the dynasty all his life, and he really didn't dare to embark on that road of heroism until he had to.

"The mourning family called you this time, except . In addition to catching up with you, there is one more thing. The Empress Dowager's eyes seemed to penetrate Aobai's heart, and she said slowly at the right time.

"The Empress Dowager said that it is southwest. War? ”

"Exactly, now that the border is restless, the bandits have conquered the three southwestern provinces under the banner of the former Ming Dynasty. Taoist people don't know how to march and arrange formations, otherwise they really want to go out of the capital in person to stabilize the society for Xuan. ”

Ao Bai hurriedly said: "The Empress Dowager is serious, the trouble of foot moss has its own loyal ministers and good generals to cook, how can I work for you." ”

Xiaozhuang's eyes glanced at Ao Bai and said, "Then according to you, what should I do?" ”

Ao Bai groaned and didn't know how to answer, last time he recommended Qiqihar to go, but now this Qiqihar is not even a ghost, the governor of the three provinces lost two provinces, tens of thousands of eight banners and tens of thousands of green battalions were beaten and lost their armor, this time, even if he is thick-skinned, it is not good to recommend people to go, if he loses again, even if no one jumps out to impeach, does he still have the face to come out and mix?

Xiaozhuang saw through Aobai's thoughts, and said with a smile: "Qiqihar has no ability, and it has nothing to do with you, you just have to say what you think in your heart, and look at the entire Beijing City, the mourning family is most trustworthy or you." ”

Ao Bai nodded, and said: "Weichen thinks that if you want to exterminate the pseudo-Ming, the first thing is to unify the elite soldiers of the provinces, such as Geng Jingzhong and Shang Kexi in Guangdong and Fujian, they are vassal kings, and they have always been arbitrary, even if they sent the governor in the past, they can't control it, as well as Zhao Fu, the governor of Guizhou, and Wang Fuchen, the governor of Shaanxi, these two were Wu Sangui's former generals, and the elite soldiers under them are all Guangning family, if the prestige of the governor sent by the imperial court is not enough, how can they be dispatched? Therefore, Weichen thought that the danger of the false Ming was not to be feared, but the real problem was that the vassal kings and admirals of the Qing Dynasty could not work together, so the imperial court should send a person with high moral standing and military merits. ”
