Going for a walk? After leaving Nanjing...can I still see the Great Lama? That’s a long way to go!
Kangxi, oh, it was Jin Xuanye. His originally calm heart suddenly started beating violently. He is different from Jin Boguo. He has not experienced the brutal Ming and Qing wars.
Moreover, he has never formally and systematically studied military affairs - the primary school and middle school he attended did not offer military courses, and Bumbutai did not allow him to own military books, except for an ancestral "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" annotated by Emperor Shunzhi. , this "treasure book" was almost ruined by him!
Therefore, Jin Xuanye does not understand the real military strength of the Ming Dynasty today, and of course he does not know that the so-called strong vassal is not a match for the Ming Dynasty's army at all.
And when he thought about it, there were many Manchu warriors who missed the Qing Dynasty under the Heilongjiang Protectorate and the Anton Protectorate in the northeast.
Moreover, the Mongolian vassal states in the northwest and north would definitely not be willing to be ruled by the Ming Dynasty... The Mongols have always been enemies of the Ming Dynasty, and they have been fighting against the Ming Dynasty for more than three hundred years!
In addition, he also heard some rumors about his father Shunzhi Renren's life.
Among the Manchu surrenders who were trapped by Zhu Cixiang in Yingtian Mansion, there were some with rich imaginations who actually imagined the story of Shunzhi's escape by cheating death!
He also said that he had a nose and eyes... Shunzhi first drove away Queen Meng Guqing, and at the same time Suo'etu and Mingzhu's group of confidants disappeared. In the end, he was buried in the sea of fire together with Sony and Suk Saha.
This is strange no matter how you look at it!
Of course Xuan Ye had heard of these things, and he felt that his father Shunzhi had cheated his death to escape.
He even imagined that Shunzhi, who had faked his death and escaped, must have been contacting Manchu loyalists in various places, waiting for the opportunity to raise his troops...
"Your Majesty, I don't want to leave Yingtian Mansion." Xuan Ye certainly wanted to find his father in his heart, but he did not dare to agree to leave Yingtian Mansion.
He also knew who he was, so he pretended to be a nerd and said, "I still want to stay in Yingtian Mansion to take the college entrance examination."
Zhu Cihong would not believe that Kangxi was a nerd. Being good at reading does not mean being a nerd! Besides, you are still Kangxi!
He smiled and said: "Travel thousands of miles and read thousands of books! Xuanye, you have read very well, but you have not traveled enough. Go out for a walk and see the great mountains and rivers of the Ming Dynasty! Then go to the Western Regions to meet the great lama , don’t you believe in the Yellow Sect? Don’t you want to meet the leader of the Yellow Sect?”
Most of the Manchu descendants who were trapped in Yingtian Mansion believed in the Yellow religion, and Xuan Ye's mother also believed in the Yellow religion during her lifetime. Bumbutai, who raised Xuan Ye after his biological mother died of illness, also believed in the Yellow religion. Under their influence, Xuan Ye also had a deep connection with Buddhism.
"Then... I will respectfully accept your Majesty's decree." Xuan Ye did not push it further, because he was also a filial son and missed his father very much!
The fat man Jin Boguo on the side looked worried, but he didn't dare to say anything.
Zhu Cixiang also noticed Jin Boguo's expression, and said to him: "Boguo'er, you are my adopted son, don't stay bored in Yingtian Mansion all the time... Look, you are so fat, you have to go out for a walk.
I will give you a name. You and Xuan Ye will go to the Western Regions together to meet Galdan... You and Galdan are quite familiar, right? "
Jin Boguo also believed in Lamaism. Geerdan, who was studying in Yingtian Mansion, was a lama, so Jin Boguo was very familiar with him.
Of course, Galdan's best friend when he was studying in Yingtian Mansion was the local tycoon Wang Zhu Hehao.
It's just that Zhu Hehao is not in Daming now, so Zhu Cixiang wants Jin Boguo to go there, and there is another important thing he wants him to do.
"Er Chen and Ge Erdan are just acquaintances, we can't say they are familiar with each other..." Jin Boguo said with a high level of vigilance. He knew that as long as he stayed in Yingtian Mansion to eat, drink and have fun, there would be no danger.
But when it comes to taking a stroll, haha, it’s hard to say!
"Boguo," Zhu Cixiang said with a smile, "are you afraid of people gossiping? Don't worry, although people's words are terrible, I can still distinguish right from wrong. I know you are loyal to the Ming Dynasty!"
"My father is wise, and my son is loyal to the Ming Dynasty!" After hearing Zhu Cixiang's words, Jin Boguo had no choice but to ask, "Does my father want my son to bring a message to Galdan?"
"I heard that Galdan returned to secular life," Zhu Cixiang said with a smile, "so I wanted to arrange a marriage for him."
Although Galdan did not recite sutras properly in the Huang Temple, he has always been a monk. Even if he went to the Western Regions and became the military governor of the Zhungeer Kingdom, he was still a lama. It wasn't until the great lama left Uzang and arrived in Kashgar that Galdan ran from the Chuhe station to meet him. Then, under the persuasion of the great lama, he returned to secular life and became a "Dharma protector king" from a monk.
Since Galdan has returned to secular life, of course he has to consider the issue of marriage. But his fifth brother, Sengge, is still alive and well and has not been harmed by anyone, so his sister-in-law, Anukedun, cannot remarry him... So Zhu Cixiang wants to convince him that they can marry into one family.
"I wonder who your Majesty wants to marry to Galdan?" Jin Boguo asked.
Zhu Cixiang shouted: "Anu!"
"The slave is here."
As soon as Zhu Cihuan finished speaking, he heard a clear and sweet female voice coming from outside the audience hall of Huangji Palace. Then a small door was pushed open, and a faint fragrance floated, accompanied by the swaying skirt and jingling rings. A little girl named Tingting came in. This woman wears a jade-colored blouse, a crimson gauze skirt, and a green double-breasted jacket. She holds a fan in her hand. Her figure is slender, and she looks like a beauty from a painting of a lady.
Jin Xuanye followed the voice and looked over. The little beauty with very white skin, an oval face, a small nose, round almond eyes, and dotted cherry lips moved lightly and came to the side of Emperor Zhu. He gave a blessing gift and said sweetly. : "My servant respectfully wishes His Majesty's blessings."
What a fairy-like beauty! Jin Xuanye was fascinated by it. It was not that he had never seen a woman more beautiful than the woman in front of him, but for some reason, he just felt that this woman was good-looking and had a special sense of intimacy...
Zhu Cixiang pointed at the woman and said to Jin Boguo: "That's her, Fan Anu, my slave. Although her status is humble, her character and appearance are decent. She is also well-educated, able to serve people, and is also good at bow and horse." Martial arts.”
This woman turned out to be Zhu Cizhong's slave Fan Anu, and Fan Wencheng made Kong Sizhen pregnant with her daughter after taking one look at her. Because he was dragged down by his cheap father, he became Zhu Cihong's slave with his mother. He also went to elementary school and learned horse riding and archery from the palace maid who came from a military household. After graduating from elementary school, he served Zhu Cixiang, doing tasks such as serving tea and water, studying ink and reading with him. He was also responsible for trying out Zhu Cixiang's meals - not trying with his own life, but trying with silver needles and puppies. . In fact, she was Zhu Cixi's personal maid. Although her status was low, she was the emperor's personal servant, so no one dared to bully her.
Moreover, she is also smart, good at observing people's emotions, and loyal. She is very popular with Zhu Cixiang, so her life in the palace can be considered pleasant.
But no matter how happy she is, she is growing up day by day. Now she is 18 years old, and she has probably reached the age where love begins, so recently she has been teasing and testing Emperor Zhu... and her style has become more and more bold, and she was scolded by Zhu Cixiang. He doesn't know how to restrain himself, and he acts like he's ready to be beaten and scolded, which is really embarrassing.
So Zhu Cihong was thinking about finding a husband-in-law for her. It happened that Galdan had just returned to secular life and did not have a daughter-in-law yet, so Emperor Zhu wanted Fan Anu to be Galdan's wife.
"Anu," Zhu Cixiang turned his head, looked at Fan Anu, and said with a smile: "You are not young anymore. It's time to get married. You are my slave, so I have chosen someone for you, from the Kingdom of Junger." Gedan, the governor of Wanhu Jiedu...you should know him, he is a very good man, and he is still a student!"
Fan Anu's originally smiling face suddenly froze, and tears flashed in his eyes. After a pause, Anu knelt down to Zhu Cixiang, and then said: "Your Majesty, I don't want to get married. I want to serve you for the rest of my life..."
Zhu Cixiang ignored Fan Anu and said to Jin Boguo and Jin Xuanye: "Anu is called a slave, but she grew up beside me. She is not much different from my daughter. I will give her the surname Zhu." , adopt her as an adopted daughter, make her a princess, and then marry her to Galdan. You two can act as matchmakers and finalize the marriage with Galdan. "
