The valley is dedicated to Churchill and a dry study of yellow powder and firearms is the valley of Haidu City, Zhu Jun is idle, so he went to the academy built for orphans to see, now the academy due to the transport of more and more orphans, and some children in Haidu City have also begun to choose to enroll here, so it was expanded and renovated again, Zhu Jun came over this time, it is more vast and majestic, just arrived at the door of the academy, he heard the sound of babbling reading, the students of the academy have graduated for a period, Except for all of the martial arts halls, which were assigned to the army as grassroots officers, the others were assigned to the six government departments, shipyards, gun workshops and other enterprises run by the imperial court as soap subordinates and technicians.

The head of the school heard the emperor's car to the door, and hurriedly took a dozen gentlemen out to greet him, Zhu Jun said a few words to the head of the court, and then went to the study hall and the dining hall to take a look, and then drove back to the palace without mentioning it.

Hunan, Hengyang.

This is the ninth day of Aobai stationed in Hunan, Aobai split his head and covered his face to call all the commanders and soldiers to scold, and then put down the burden, the provincial commanders and the green battalion commanders no longer dare to slack off, they have returned to the camp to practice, the things in the world are like this, some bosses with whips follow the back to stare at the subordinates to steal and play tricks, but if you change the boss like Aobai, there is no need to stare at all, an order to go down, no one honestly dare not have any slack, the commanders live in the barracks every day to practice, The general soldiers inspected and supervised the military discipline in the battalion every night, and the guerrilla generals and leaders no longer went to the kilns to drink flower wine, but urged the battalions from 5 to 9. The name of Ao Bai is not covered, and the buttresses have to tremble on the ground in Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Shaanxi, Guizhou and Guangdong.

Ao Bai ordered all kinds of drills and horses, while instructing Jiangnan to transfer grain, he listened to the opera leisurely, a comfortable appearance, compared with the military affairs in the southwest, Ao Bai is more concerned about the movement of the imperial court, since the moment Ao Bai left Beijing, the daily courtiers' recitals and criticisms will be sent to Ao Bai's hands with 600 miles of urgency, and Aobai's staff will classify these music one by one, and select some important ones to be presented to Ao Bai's hands.

Not only that, a group of ministers of the Ao Party will also quietly pass the news of Beijing, but these days the court is quite calm, except for some jokes made by the little emperor, there is no big deal, and no one is secretly making trouble, Ao Bai finally put his mind at ease, and specially invited the Kunqu Opera team to the house to babble and sing, and the officials of Hengyang were invited in, and carefully accompanied this hall to talk.

On the stage, several Danjiao and Harlequin are singing "The Story of Huansha" back and forth, telling the story of the two vassal states of Wu and Yue fighting for hegemony during the Spring and Autumn Period.

Wu Wangfu led an army to defeat the Yue State, and brought the Yue King Goujian and his wife and the Yue minister Fan Li to the Wu State as hostages. After the defeat and capture of Goujian, the king of Yue, he endured the humiliation and suggested that he would dedicate Fan Li's beautiful and unparalleled lover Xi Shi Jin to the king of Wu, intending to use the female color to consume his will, divide the monarchs and ministers of the state of Wu, and gain the trust of the king of Wu with a completely obedient attitude, and the king of Wu was really confused by the beauty of Xi Shi, abolished the national government, and killed Zhongliang. Three years later, he was released back to Vietnam. The monarchs and ministers of the Yue Kingdom worked hard to manage it, and finally defeated the Wu State and succeeded, and the husband committed suicide. Fan Gong retired after becoming famous, made up his mind to stay away from political right and wrong, and took Xi Shi on a boat, looking for a place to live a hermit life.

At this time, when Wu Zixu was forced to commit suicide, I could only hear the old student who played Wu Zixu singing, a sword across his neck, the hero was dying, and it was indescribably miserable.

Ao Bai originally didn't like to listen to the opera, but it was really boring here, it happened that the prefect of Hengyang invited a famous Kunqu opera team to present, Ao Bai was bored, and he also used it as a way to pass the time, who knew that when he saw this, his heart was touched, he thought to himself, isn't he the Wu Zixu? My king is deaf, and the good general can't survive, so he can only kill himself. If Kangxi Xiao'er wants to be pro-government in the future, if he forces me to be the same as Wu Zixu, how can he sit still and wait to die? No, this power must be firmly grasped, otherwise Wu Zixu's fate will be his own tomorrow.

The officials clustered around Ao Bai couldn't see Ao Bai's thoughts, and still squinted, intoxicated by the play. Ao Bai glanced left and right, then calmed down and continued to listen.

Then. A doorman hurried into the back hall. Walked up to Aobai and whispered a few words. Ao Bai's eyes swept at the door like lightning. yelled: "Is this serious? ”

This heavy drink immediately woke up all the officials who were drunk in the play. Everyone looked at Ao Bai at a loss. Several actors on the stage also stopped their vocal cords. Suddenly. The entire backyard was silent.

Menzi hurriedly lowered his body and said, "It's true." ”

"Okay!" Ao Bai hammered his fist on the coffee table on the side. Bang. The coffee table was scattered to the ground. Chacup slammed to the ground. Tea was poured all over the place.

"Go and ask Sumula to come." Ao Bai shouted at Menzi. Frightened, the officials on the side took a step back. I don't know what happened. No one dared to ask.

He looked back at the officials who were not possessed. The voice was loud and said: "T, let's do it." ”

The officials were like amnesty, and they retired one after another with a happy face, who dared to get involved in the matter of Aobai, everyone was eager to leave this place as soon as possible, and after a while, the back hall that was originally overcrowded was suddenly left with only one Aobai.

Soon, a thin staff member walked in and came over to salute Ao: "Master, the slave greets you." ”

Su Mula is a person with a yellow flag, he has read a few Han books since he was a child, and he is also contaminated with some sour gas, he originally worshiped and looked down on him, if it weren't for Su Mula being his minion, he didn't want to use it, and he had been raised in the house to reward him with food. Now Ao Bai is out of Beijing, some of his comrades are staying in Beijing, the secret reports and folds in the court must be read by someone, but Ao Bai is illiterate, and finally can only let Su Mula come to see the excerpts, just Su Mula just received the excerpts sent urgently, his face suddenly changed, and he hurriedly went to find a door to enter the backyard to participate, Ao Bai listened to the words of the doorman, and there was a scene today.

"Su Mula, sit down and talk slowly, what is the purpose of that excerpt." Although Ao Bai is reckless, he must also make clear the cause and effect of the matter at this time.

"The excerpt is from Sony, saying that now the Southern Ming Dynasty is raging in the southwest, the Xiao cavalry battalion in the capital has followed the master out of Beijing, the defense of the capital is empty, and the foreign enemy is current, there must be no accidents, so please order the emperor to transfer the general Shengjing, Fengtian, Jilin, and the princes of Manmeng outside the customs to enter the king of Guanqin to protect Jinggi."

Ao Bai's face was shocked, and then he said angrily: "Sony, this bastard, dares to stab Lao Tzu in the back." ”

Most of the soldiers and horses guarding the imperial city in Gyeonggi and guarding the imperial city are in the hands of Aobai, which is the capital that Aobai dares to shout at Xiao Kangxi, but now he has transferred out of the Xiaocai battalion, and there are still 50,000 or 60,000 garrisons in the city, but once the princes and generals outside the pass lead the troops into the pass, then the 50,000 or 60,000 people guarding Gyeonggi in his Aobai will become a minority, and the princes and generals are loyal to the empress dowager and the emperor, and the defense of the entire Gyeonggi is equivalent to reshuffling, which is equivalent to stabbing the Aobai on the front line.

"What did the Empress Dowager say?" Ao Bai then asked.

Su Mula said: "The Empress Dowager did not express her position or refute it, but just said that the emperor is also old, and many government affairs should be made proficient and skilled, and let the emperor handle it himself." ”

Ao Bai's heart was cold, the meaning of the Empress Dowager was already very clear, the emperor was not young, and the auxiliary ministers should also rest.

Isn't this conniving at the emperor's approval?

"Then how did the emperor approve it?" Ao Bai was angered by this conspiracy, this matter is by no means so simple, Sony usually either pretends to be sick or pretends to be a stake in the court and does not speak, and now he has only been out of Beijing for half a month, and he has such an excerpt, right? This was instructed by the Empress Dowager?

"The emperor didn't say anything, but he just left the excerpt in the middle, but I heard that the eunuch Wang Xian, the head of the palace worship room, came to report that the emperor summoned Epilong in the palace, and scolded him, and then transferred him to Shandong to control the river trouble." Su Mula's eyes lit up, and he continued in a calm voice: "Not only that, I heard that the emperor also issued several secret decrees to let the commander of Rehe transfer troops into Beijing, and there are also several secret decrees that were passed on to the outside of the customs. ”

Ao Bai couldn't help but suffocate, looking at Su Mula dumbly, he originally thought that he was still in control of the court, but now it seems that it is obviously a big mistake, if the general Wang Ye outside the gate enters Beijing, and the Eight Banners of Rehe have arrived in Gyeonggi, the defense of the entire capital is equivalent to firmly controlling the hands of the Empress Dowager and the emperor, he is far away in Hunan, and he can't stop it at all, the most intriguing thing is that Epilong was expelled from the capital, and only one auxiliary minister is left in the entire capital, and now look at Sony's performance, He is firmly on the side of the Queen Mother.

"Prepare the horse, Lord Ben wants to return to Beijing." No matter how stupid Ao Bai was, he guessed that this sudden movement was aimed at him, and he was going back to the capital to fight with the pair of orphans and widows.

"No, master." Su Mula stopped the angry Ao Bai and hurriedly said: "Now that the soldiers and horses of Rehe have entered Beijing, if the slaves are not mistaken, the soldiers and horses outside the pass have also entered the pass, and the master was ordered to encircle and suppress Nanming. ”

Ao Bai was strong, and he broke Su Mula away, he was not a person who sat still.

Su Mula fell and gnawed on the mud, still shouting: "The master's family is all in Beijing, if the master goes back, do you still expect them to live?" ”

Ao Bai has passed the moon cave in the backyard, at this time I heard Su Mula's words, I couldn't help but pause, Su Mula is right, now the soldiers of Rehe are in the capital, and the Jinggi army in charge of his Ao Bai may not listen to his orders, and the soldiers and horses outside the gate are rushing back day and night, he is now going back not only can not fall well, I am afraid that the whole family will have to suffer.
