Nian Qianyao's general Zhongjun Xingyuan, in fact, when Emperor Kangxi personally conquered Zhungeer, the Qinghai Lama built the palace for Kangxi's return, and Kangxi did not pass by here on his return journey, so he has been idle. Nian Qianyao Xingyuan moved from Gansu, Xining Taishou Sima Road and redecoration here, in addition to the yellow glazed tiles on the main hall replaced with green, in fact, it is still a royal system. The main hall of Jiuying changed the middle account of the line, the large copper tank of water storage used for extinguishing the fire under the Dan mound in front of the palace is also the scale of the golden cylinder in front of the Qianqing door, the imperial furnace incense tripod in the middle of the road, temporarily wrapped in yellow felt cloth and trapped, it is regarded as a courtesy avoidance. On the main hall according to the intention of the year of Qianyao, the west wall is full of the situation map of the mountains and rivers of Qinghai Province, the east pavilion of the imperial couch has changed the sand table, Rao is so, it still seems empty, in the middle of a huge file is placed on the four treasures of the study, the pen holder paperweight, the ink jade seal table is a foot square, and the upper Ming Huang is covered with a seal box - that is, according to the Kangxi hand-engraved "Fuyuan General Guanfang" is stored. These are also ordinary, the dragon and phoenix frame of more than two people behind the tiger skin chair is particularly eye-catching, and a gold medal arrow for Emperor Yongzheng's "Ru I am here"; a Shang Fang sword with wrong gold inlaid jade, dragon coiled and phoenix; The curtains are in the yellow gauze tent, giving people a mysterious and solemn feeling.

This place is usually called "White Tiger Hall" by the generals in private, although it is used for deliberations, but because it is the first time to arrive, it is the first time to use. Even in Pingliang, Gansu, Nian Qianyao never easily raised his account to convene the generals in the main hall to discuss matters, at first hearing Nian Qianyao's military order, the generals didn't know what was going on, one by one neatly dressed and brightly dressed and brightly dressed and rushed in, although they didn't dare to talk loudly, they all asked each other with their eyes and exchanged glances. I didn't do it when, I heard the sound of the thunder cannon three times, Nian Qianyao was in front, Sang Chengding followed, walked down the steps from the Xiyi Gate behind the palace, and walked into the big tent, and more than 70 people in the hall "whew" and knelt down on one knee and said: "Say hello to Nian Dashuai!" "The spurs clanged.

"Get up." Nian Qianyao ascended to the seat, looked around for a while, stretched out his right hand, and raised a return salute with a tiger's mouth, and then sat down, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he said with a cold smile, "I summoned you here today to report two things." The Holy Lord's special edict came to serve in front of the army with the Nine Belle Yunyu. Do you know this? The hanging hearts of the soldiers were relaxed, and they all arched their hands and said: "Mark and know!" Nian Qianyao nodded, and said: "The ninth master is the beloved brother of today, and when he came to the army, it also means that the jade is made into a weapon." Do not have any other thoughts. In the final analysis, the ninth master is the dragon son and phoenix grandson, the golden branch and jade leaf, you have to take care of your life, and it is indispensable for the monarch and the minister. I know you bastards, when you see me respectfully, you can't turn your face to others. Who wronged the ninth master, I will deal with him according to military law, can you hear me? ”

"Piercing!"

Nian Qianyao "snapped" and got up, his eyes became green and faint like a hungry wolf, and his anger came out of the dantian, and he shouted: "Yixing! ”

"The last general!"

"You go to the Xiguan Mansion, and immediately bring Mu Xiang'a and other ten disciplinary officers to listen to the fate!"

The general named Yi Xing'a smacked a thousand children and said, "Follow the general's orders, please order!" Nian Qianyao casually reached out and pulled out a tiger's head from the arrow stand, and the arrow was "dang" down. Yi Xing'a picked it up with both hands, held it in his arms, and strode out of the main tent. Only then did people realize that it was the new guard "masters" who violated the military rules, and a let go of the heart brought up the old man again.

Ten guards were twisted into the main tent by twenty wolf-like military academies with their arms twisted, and each of them had blue noses and swollen eyes. Seeing the formation of the Shuai Ying Tiger Tent, all of them changed color on their faces and suddenly hit their hearts, but they couldn't let go of the guards for a while. Mu Xiang'a had the secret edict to monitor Nian Qianyao, and had the right to fold and play, so he panicked, and he could hold it a little, and when the soldiers let go of their hands, rubbed their sore shoulders, looked at Nian Qianyao angrily, and said: "General Nian, we have been given the holy decree, and we have traveled thousands of miles to voluntarily join the army to serve the country, and you are so to be promised?" ”

"Get on your knees!"

"What?"

"Get on your knees!"

"I'll kneel down for you in a yellow coat?"

"I'll strip you off your yellow coat!"

Nian Qianyao was full of color, with a wave of his hand, a military academy had already rushed up, and without saying anything, he took off the yellow coats of ten people, kicked in his knees, and was already kicking and kneeling on the ground.

"There are many relatives of the emperor who come to me on errands. With a torn yellow coat, you dare to despise this general? Nian Qianyao casually pointed to the more than 20 people standing in front, "You ask them, who doesn't have a yellow coat?" Take your Ixinga is the third son of the old prince of Jane, Rabu, the current imperial uncle, not as noble as you? Sang Chengding, according to the rules of the camp, these ten people did not pay homage in Yuanmen, made noise about the Western officials, insulted the general, and were pampered and arrogant, roaring in the chamber, what should they be guilty of? ”

Sang Chengding took a step forward and burst out a dry and boring word: "Chop!" ”

"Then act according to military regulations." Nian Qianyao frowned and said, "Bring wine, pour ten bowls, and I will personally see them off!" In an instant, the two sergeants had brought a jar of wine, poured ten bowls, and stuffed them into the hands of the ten guards who were already frightened on their knees. Nian Qianyao also took a bowl himself, glanced at Sang Chengding, Sang Chengding understood, and bowed out. Nian Qianyao took the wine in his hand and walked down the stairs, he had changed his compassionate face, and comforted him gently: "The emperor sent you here to earn fame with a knife and a gun, and to build a career for the imperial court, not to ask you to come to die, I know this." Mu Xiang'a, I actually have a deep relationship with your father, I have been to you for the full moon and the hundred days, and I also said that you have a good future, the young phoenix is clear in the old phoenix, and you will be stronger than your father in the future, where can I think that you will die under my arrows? Alas, where did this man start......"

Mu Xiang'a shook the wine in the bowl and spilled his body, the more he listened to Nian Qianyao's "soothing", the more frightened he became, and when he looked at it, there were unfamiliar faces around, and it was difficult to even count on an intercession, and his face suddenly became as pale as window paper, and he said in a trembling voice: "We are new here, we don't understand the rules, and we offended the general." Now...... Wrong. Since the general remembered his friendship with his father back then, he hoped forgiveness, and was willing to serve the general with a knife and a gun. ”

"That's not the case." Nian Qianyao's tone was more peaceful, "This is the Shuai Ying Tiger Tent, not a child player's house, smash the guy and start over." I have indulged you, and I have made it difficult for others. When I return to Beijing in the future, of course, I will go to the house to ask for my guilt. Oh, you went to the Western Officials' House, and the military school there didn't preach discipline to you? ”

The ten guards showed up for a moment, in fact, they refused to listen to it in order to preach discipline, and blindly ridiculed the wine and scolded the seat. After a long time, Mu Xiang said: "I preached." ”

"No wonder I'm ruthless!" Nian Qianyao raised his face and finished drinking the wine in one go, threw the bowl in his hand, turned his back to his face and ordered, "Drag them out!" ”

The military academy thundered in unison, pounced on the ten guards like ducks, and no matter how much they struggled and mourned, they dragged out of the main hall with their feet on the ground, and fell together in the open space on the west side of the imperial furnace. In an instant, the horn sounded in all directions, and all the battalions in the city knew that General Nian was killing people in the marching method again. At this moment, Yun Yu and Wang Jingqi ran down from the west door out of breath with the corners of their robes in their hands, Yun Yu's complexion was not complex, and he waved his hands and shouted to the executioner: "Slow, keep people under the knife!" After that, he approached the front of the main hall and "snapped" down the horse's hoof sleeves, and reported loudly: "The former army serves Jiubeile Yunyu, please see General Nian!" After a long time, I only heard Nian Qianyao say coldly: "Please come in!" ”

Yun Yu "pricked" and agreed. He really put down the shelf, bowed his waist to Nian Qianyao, kowtowed, got up and hit another thousand. Nian Qianyao accepted the salute in the south, thinking of the identity of the person below, his heart felt comfortable. Thinking about it, these generals proofread Jing Shimi's secret book of their own no courtesy, and they were a little flustered, so they hurriedly got up and said, "The ninth master doesn't have to sign up for the salute in the future, Nian Mou doesn't dare to bear it." Set up a seat for the Ninth Master—"

"General Nian", Yun Yu sat down humbly, bowed and said, "I am here to plead for Mu Xiang'a's ten people." Nian Qianyao smiled and said: "Military law is ruthless. Ninth Master, you don't care about these things, you just have peace and prosperity. Yun Yu blushed and said, "It's me who is in a hurry and said something wrong." These guards are used to waiting for the emperor, and they never know that there is a word 'rules' in the world, just like wild horses that have not been trained, and sometimes even the emperor is so angry that he can't do it. Sending them to the army also means handing them over to you for discipline. Considerate of the emperor's benevolence and compassion, I hope you will open the net, and you can be superborn and superborn. ”

Nian Qianyao said: "Ninth Master, you know, I am controlling the four provinces at this time, more than a dozen people, and nearly 300,000 soldiers. The reward is not clear and the punishment is not heavy, which is a taboo for the military. I forgive them, these people on both sides do not obey the general's order, how can they restrain the army? Now that the encirclement of Lobuzang Tenzin has been completed, all armies cannot act in unison, and the major military affairs have been missed, how will I see the emperor in the future? ”

"Generals, generals!" Yun Yu suddenly left his seat and knelt down in court, and waved around, "They have violated military discipline and deserve death, Yun Yu does not dare to intercede, when the country employs people, the emperor is benevolent, Yun Yu is willing to be a guarantee, and send these ten heads, so that they can make meritorious service and make meritorious contributions, I don't know if everyone can understand the general's heart of loyalty to the country, and the intention of the temple and court to cultivate talents?" Seeing that the emperor's younger brother was so humble and courteous, everyone in the hall couldn't help but feel hot in their hearts, and waved their hands to Nian Qianyao and said: "My subordinates are willing to protect ten guards with the Ninth Master!" ”

Nian Qianyao looked around at everyone, and suddenly laughed: "I should not take pleasure in killing people - even so, pass them in." ”

Ten guards were escorted in, and the arrogance of the first arrival was swept away. They raised their eyes and stared at Yun Yu, knelt down and kowtowed in turn, Mu Xiang'a said in a trembling voice: "General Xie for not killing, thank Jiuye for saving his life, thank you brothers for saving your life!" ”

"Although the death penalty is forgiven, the living sin is unforgivable!" Nian Qianyao raised his face and said, "Everyone in the court has forty military sticks to set an example!" The two military academies agreed "oh", and couldn't help but say, and when they came up, they pressed down on the spot, and the crackling was a stinky beating. Military academies under Nian Qianyao's account are commonplace, and he is silent with a wooden face, where has Yun Yu seen this? Listening to the dull muffled sound of the military stick hitting the buttocks, I didn't feel creepy. It wasn't until the end of the corporal punishment that Nian Qianyao Fang said "um" with satisfaction and said, "There is no ** forgiveness, it is still decent." Ten of you, put up a line under the tent and wait for you! I tell you, if there is a place in the surname year, you can play the emperor secretly, and you don't have to scruple - don't you dare to be presumptuous just by relying on this? ”

How dare ten people raise their heads, and they replied repeatedly: "Don't dare, don't dare!" ”

"I also have the right to play Chen." Nian Qianyao had a sneering smile on his face, Xu Bu got off the public seat, paced slowly, and said: "If the emperor believes me, how can he deliver hundreds of thousands of troops to me?" You don't know what's going on! It's not that I don't dare to kill you today. Ha Qingsheng is the current forehead, last month from Sichuan to supervise the military rations, three days late, I beheaded him. I'll cut it first, I'll play it later! The emperor not only did not punish me, but also issued a decree to commend me. As he spoke, he threw a piece of the fold to Mu Xiang'a. When Mu Xiang'a opened it with a trembling hand, the blood-red Zhu Pi on his head was impressive:

August 15 recital. I burned incense and prayed to the heavens here, and celebrated the festival with the ministers, not intending to kill people in the Western Xinjiang march, and I thought about it with a sense of disagreement at the same time. Ha Qingsheng was originally an unsuccessful person, and he hoped that his frontier would be sharpened, or he could be slightly accomplished, but he was unintentionally executed for delaying the military plane. When I first heard it, I was shocked, both thinking and happy, if I have more than a dozen years of Qianyao, do not avoid resentment, are not afraid of the powerful, and are loyal to law enforcement, why do I stay awake at midnight and work state affairs? There are many relatives outside the sect who serve in the Qing army, and when they encounter such things later, they will be punished according to the military law, and there is no need to play a special chapter. Qing and do it boldly, but Qing is a good courtier, why worry about me not being a good son of heaven? !

The handwriting is end, and the one-color bell king is small, and the show is powerful. There is also a small seal of "Yuanming Layman" under his head. Mu Xiang'a originally had the heart to complain, and wanted to wait for an opportunity to find a secret book, so he dispelled his delusions, and hurriedly returned Nian Qianyao with both hands, with a smile on his face: "This is a nightmare, better than ten years of study." Let's serve to the end, before and after the saddle, we will always listen to the general's instructions! Seeing that the ten guards had been ambushed, Nian Qianyao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, changed his smiling face, and said, "What are you always doing on your knees?" Get up! Military law is military law, and private feelings are private affairs. You're still my best friend! The Ninth Master's meal is not full, and your feast is also disturbed—tell them to set up a new feast! I tried my best to eat with other generals, and I couldn't drink more than three glasses of wine. As soon as you get drunk, you will be frightened, and you will catch the wind. ”

At that time, the sky was already numb and dark, the Chinese army's big tent moved the wine bottle, the wax was feverish, and the ten guards endured the pain of the buttocks, and forced a smile to flatter the unprovoked Nian general, until the change, the battalion generals had to go back to deal with military affairs, Nian Qianyao ordered to withdraw from the table, and someone sent Yun Yudong's study to rest, and took Sang Chengding and his personal relatives back to the west study. saw that the other masters' staff had already dispersed, but Wang Jingqi was still writing under the lamp, writing something. Nian Qianyao was already a very tired person, and he walked in as if he had been filled with lead, and asked for "Come into the ginseng soup!" He smiled at Wang Jingqi again: "You are an old man, and there is nothing to be done here?" There's no urgency, there's no need to stay up late, what are you writing about? ”

"Dashuai," Wang Jingqi wrote attentively, but he didn't pay attention to Nian Qianyao had already come in, and when he heard what he was asking, Fang put down his pen and hurriedly stood up and replied: "Although I am old, I am in good spirits, and I have a habit of writing notes, and I have to write every day." A few days ago, the commander Chen was disciplined, and the rewards and punishments were severe, which was of course good, but the soldiers were all from the Guannei, and the Western Xinjiang was cold and had no entertainment, and it was inevitable to be lonely and homesick, which was not only due to discipline. So I wrote a few triumphant songs to the general, can you give them to all armies to sing, one can boost morale, and the other is to avoid the pain of homesickness when you have nothing to do, can you make it? ”

Nian Qianyao took the ginseng soup brought by Sang Chengding, drank it while it was hot, and said with a smile: "Okay! Embattled and scattered 8,000 soldiers, you understand military affairs and know people's hearts, it's rare! I'll see what words to write! As he spoke, when he stepped forward and leaned over, he saw three poems:

The army is boiling in Michuan City, and Emperor Jian Yuan Rong is five soldiers.

Ban Jian Gong Yi Dragon Festival arrived, and Iwaki Chizi celebrated his rebirth.

At the beginning of the favor on the altar of the general, the prince went out to chase Han.

The brocade-clothed horses came to the battle in person, and the soldiers were jubilant and the enemy was terrified.

The company battalion preached triumphant returns, and the border cheered and cheered.

Hearing that thousands of officials accompanied him, the king himself waited for Jieshu to come.

Wang Jingqi saw that Nian Qianyao looked speechless, and said with a smile: "I am weak, I just write, so naturally I can't enter the eyes of the general." Nian Qianyao said: "Who can say that this poem is not good?" It was so elegant that the soldiers couldn't sing. I always feel that the spirit is a little too small, from Gan to Qing, has won a few battles, it is good to write it, can you draw a few more for me to see? ”

Wang Jingqi pondered for a moment, and no longer spoke, the pen was wet with ink on the front, and the text was dotted, and he wrote three more poems like a storm:

Commanded the enemy to defeat the river, and held nine chapters with strict discipline.

The new inheritance of the Inner Mansion is given by Lu Ya, and the Gongman shoots the wolf!

When the war drums were idle, the war drums were idle, and the soldiers were disarmed and entered the heavy level.

Wave the army and take the wolf's head again, and the king will cry back!

Drink to the name of Yuangong bamboo silk, and the supreme reward is all over the camp.

Get off the horse for a while to listen to the edict, and shout long live from far and near!

"Well, good!" Seeing that he was so agile, Nian Qianyao couldn't help but admire, "It's really this way to boost morale." The first three say that I said too much, and it was too early. Now that the great enemy has not been destroyed, he cannot sing my merits and praise my virtues. These are the three songs, which are transmitted to each army according to the military music. Let everyone be able to sing. When you capture Lobuzang Tenzin, you can make up a few better songs! His eyes flashed with joy, staring at the light of the candlelight, slowly, but dimmed, he sat down with his shaved head, looked up, and sighed for a while: "But Rob ...... Where is Lobuzang Tenzin? Where is his main force? What a big Qinghai - slow rocking the boat to catch drunk fish? I have to spend hundreds of thousands of taels of silver in the imperial court a day, can the emperor's temperament allow me to fight for a long time? ”

Wang Jingqi sat diagonally opposite, with a gloomy light shining in his bottomless pupils, staring at Nian Qianyao for a long time, and said, "I know." ”

"What?"

"I know where the base camp of Lobuzang Tenzin is."

Like a cat that suddenly found a mouse, Nian Qianyao leaned forward suddenly, stared at Wang Jingqi with suspicious and cruel eyes, and asked hoarsely, "Where?" Wang Jingqi got up with a smile, went to the sand table, pointed to a place with a wooden stick, and said, "Here, Taer Temple!" Nian Qianyao got up quickly, walked quickly to the sand table, looked at the location of Ta'er Temple, and suddenly raised his head and asked: "You are new to the city, why dare you conclude that Ta'er Temple is his base camp?" You must know that Taer Temple is only a few dozen miles away from Xining! ”

"Look at the candle." Wang Jingqi gritted his teeth and said with a gloomy smile, "If the whole room is bright, but you can't shine on the candlestick - this is 'black under the lamp'!" Wang Jingqi said slowly and clearly, his tone was dry and without a little moisture, and he said: "When nomadic tribes fight, they also need water, grass, and grain. Qinghai has been surrounded all over the world, why are the soldiers of Lobuzang Tenzin still able to support it? Just because the grain depot in Taer Temple is still being supplied. Taer Temple is the general temple of the Huangjiao, in addition to raising grain in Qinghai and buying grain in the mainland, the imperial court also allocates grain from time to time - General Nian, you can't cut off this food source, you can't conquer Qinghai Province! ”

This discussion is really enlightening for Nian Qianyao, and he can't imagine that "closing the door and beating the dog" is not only a big house, but also a dog has something to eat! Nian Qianyao gritted his teeth very badly, and got up and left with a "sigh". Wang Jingqi said: "Slow! Nian Qianyao turned around and said, "Your speculation is reasonable, whether it is Rob's base camp or not, I will kill this Taer Temple!" ”

"Taer Temple is not Taihu Wujiazhai, nor is it Jiangxia Town, Anhui!" Wang Jingqi's tone was as calm as a child who had just woken up, "Taer Temple has been suppressed for no reason, and it is going to turn against Qinghai Province!" You must know that the living Buddha of Danluo is the leader here, and the emperor's stand-in, Zen Master Wenjue, was also ordained here. Originally, it was Luo Bu Zang Tenzin who 'harassed Qinghai', but instead of suppressing the Luo Bu army, you provoked a new mutiny. I dare to say that if you suppress the Taer Temple today, within a month, you will be locked up and taken into Beijing, and a new general will be appointed to replace you! ”

Nian Qianyao hesitated, turned around, paced silently with his hands behind his back, and the burly figure moved back and forth on the study window, because he saw Sang Chengding coming in, he ordered: "You go to the grain collection office to pass on my order, cut off all the grain shipped from the mainland to Qinghai." All the temples and temples, the lamas and monks use food, and they are paid by the people - and also, get some supper, and I will talk to Mr. Wang all night! ”

In just an instant, Wang Jingqi rose to the status of "Mr. Wang".
