"The Emperor has returned to the palace!"
Following the shout of Little Guizi's father-in-law, Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty, who was lying in a soft sedan chair, was finally carried into the Qing Gate without the plaque... This was the national gate of the Qing Dynasty. ah!
The door number of the national gate was taken away, no one was embarrassed!
However, Kangxi was in a daze at this time and did not pay so much attention to the disappearance of the house number on the national gate. He just felt that there was something wrong with the gate, and for the moment he couldn't remember what was wrong. There was an indescribable gloominess inside the gate.
Qianbu Long Street inside Daqing Gate is also called Qianbu Corridor. There are two rows of long verandas on both sides of the long street - a kind of long house with corridors. Two rows of verandahs are built from Tiana Gate to Daqing Gate, with one hundred and forty-four rooms on the left and right. The yamen of the Five Governments, Six Ministries, Three Divisions and Seven Courtyards of the Qing Dynasty were located in these rooms.
On weekdays, this thousand-step long street is really "official mountain and official sea"! There are not only Beijing officials on duty here, but also local officials who come here to do business. If the emperor comes back to the palace through Daqing Gate and Tiana Gate, all the officials on the street will have to greet him! Officials wearing robes lay on both sides of the street, and they all shouted "Long live the mountain" together. The scene was really intoxicating!
But today, both sides of the thousand-foot long street are empty. Let alone the officials, there is not even a pen sticker... I don’t know if these officials went to the outer city to "find relatives" or were captured by the Mongols. Are sheep grazing on the grassland?
Thinking of this, Emperor Kangxi couldn't help but burst into tears. While he was crying, his brother Chang Ning spoke again: "Your Majesty, are you feeling better? We are home now. The Empress Dowager and the Empress are waiting for you in Qianqing Palace! If you feel better, come down and go Two steps, don’t let the Imperial Grandmother worry... These days, she has been carrying half of the Qing Dynasty for us, and she is exhausted!"
"Has the imperial grandmother lost weight?" Kangxi cried out in distress!
Bumbutai loves to eat meat and has a very good appetite, so he has always been fat... He has been fat all his life, but now he has successfully lost weight!
"Quick, quick, quick, I'm feeling better, I can leave on my own!" Thinking of this, Kangxi quickly asked the imperial guards who were carrying him to put the soft sedan that had been "taken without warning" from the Bada Hutong to the ground.
Then he stood up again with the help of Xiao Guizi and Duo Long, walked a few steps, and felt okay... In fact, he was not seriously ill, but he was too tired from traveling for days, and he was depressed. , then fainted from crying in Bada Hutong.
After resting on the soft sedan for a while, I felt much better. Although the fall was not serious, my muscles and bones were not injured, but there was a big bump on the back of my head. Father-in-law Xiao Guizi covered it with a melon skin bag. I live here, so now I'm just like a normal person.
Kangxi raised his head and looked around again, and found that he had entered the Meridian Gate and was under the white marble platform outside the gate of Qianqing Palace.
Emperor Kang Mazi sighed, gently pushed away Xiao Guizi and Duolong who were supporting him, and took steps on his own, walking up the steps step by step. The steps outside the gate of Qianqing Palace finally became a bit popular. There were a few listless eunuchs standing there, but they didn't see the palace maids. When they saw Kangxi coming up, they all knelt down to greet him and shouted long live the mountain.
After being called out by them, Emperor Kangxi finally regained the feeling of being a little noble again, held his head high and walked quickly into the Qianqing Palace. When I walked into the Qianqing Palace, I looked up and realized something was wrong - I didn't see the "Upright and Bright" plaque.
Wrong place? Isn’t this Qianqing Palace?
When Emperor Kangxi was in a daze, Bumbutai's tired voice rang out: "Emperor, don't look for it... The upright and bright plaque is the same as the plaque on the Qing Gate. Burni took it to the grassland. !”
Emperor Kangxi lost his voice and said: "What? The plaque of Daqing Gate..."
"What's the big deal?" Bumbutai snorted, "This city of Beijing still belongs to us. Although the Qing Dynasty is dilapidated, it is still there... The green hills are still there, so we don't have to worry about running out of firewood! "
Kangxi had already seen Bumu Butai at this time. The old woman was indeed much more "proportionate" and no longer a fat person.
The old lady who had successfully lost weight was being supported by Kangxi's wife, Hesheli, as she walked around the Qianqing Palace.
Although she has lost a lot of weight, the old lady is still in good spirits and her face is still rosy. On the other hand, Hesheli looked a little unwell. His face was sallow and his figure was thin. He seemed to be seriously ill.
Kangxi didn't have time to care about his wife's condition, and quickly knelt down to Bumbutai, "Imperial grandmother, you are frightened and suffering! This is all the fault of my son and ministers. My grandson mistakenly believed in the traitor Burni, which caused the capital to be destroyed." The rebels attacked..."
When he said this, his pockmarked face turned murderous again, "Royal grandmother, my grandson will never let go of the traitor Burni... When my grandson turns around, he will rectify the Eight Banners' powerful army, lead the expedition in person, and set out on the grassland. , we must take the traitor Burni back to Beijing and cut him into pieces!"
The crusade against Burni is a must!
This guy almost emptied the city of Beijing and arrested so many family members of the Eight Banners disciples! Could Kangxi not lead the Eight Banners soldiers to fight to the death?
But Bumubutai sighed after hearing this: "Emperor, do you know the saying that the emperor guards the country?"
Kangxi was stunned and nodded, "My grandson has heard of it...it's all nonsense made by useless scholars who were unwilling to let the Ming Dynasty perish and brag about the stupid kings of the Ming Dynasty."
Bumbutai hummed: "Get up and talk..." She paused and said again, "You are now the emperor guarding the country!"
Kangxi stood up and said: "Royal grandmother, don't worry, Burni's Chahar Mongolian soldiers cannot defeat the Eight Banners soldiers of my grandson."
When it comes to beating Burni, Emperor Kangxi is still full of confidence.
He couldn't defeat Zhu Heji and Wu Sangui. Could it be that he couldn't defeat Bourni? And the Qing Dynasty's military force is not weak now...it's just that the opponents it encountered were too strong, and that's why they were outmatched by the Eight Banners New Army.
In the process of confronting the masters, the combat effectiveness of the Eight Banners New Army has also been greatly tempered. Whether it is weapons and equipment, tactical thinking, or the training level of the troops, they are firmly among the best in the world, even as good as Yu Wu Sangui's army.
In the battle of Zhuxian Town, although Kangxi's army suffered more casualties than his opponent, and was suppressed by his opponent...but he actually withstood it!
If Burni had not raided Beijing, but gone south as planned. Kangxi, supported by Burni, was almost certain to win the battle of Zhuxian Town.
Moreover, through the Battle of Zhuxian Town, Kangxi and his officer corps had already reached the threshold of "pit fighting"... If Emperor Kangxi could be allowed to digest the experience of the Battle of Zhuxian Town, he would probably be able to The tactical level of the Eight Banners New Army has reached a new peak.
Therefore, if the current Eight Banners New Army is allowed to attack Burni, it will simply destroy everything!
How could Kangxi let such a good opportunity pass?
Bumbutai sighed: "If there is only one Burni, I won't say that the emperor guards the country!"
"Who else?" Kangxi looked at the old lady and asked.
"The Third Prince Zhu!" Bumbutai said, "That's the Third Prince Zhu you want to catch the most! He is now in Tianjin Prefecture, over there in Dagu and Tanggu!"
Kangxi was startled at once, "What? Prince Zhu San arrived in Zhili? When did it happen?"
Bumbutai glanced at Chang Ning, and Chang Ning said: "I just got the report from Tianjin Prefecture yesterday... When Burney attacked Beijing City, there were many remnants of the Ming Dynasty and Tianjin Prefecture in Tongzhou and Tianjin Prefecture. The people from the Cao Gong Gang followed and made trouble. They also took advantage of our efforts to recapture the inner city of Beijing and united with Burni's Mongolian cavalry to capture Tongzhou. Later, they took the Cao Gong and Cao Gong's family members in Tongzhou, and a total of tens of thousands of people went there. They attacked Tianjin Prefecture, but failed, and then moved to attack Tanggu and Daku on the coast. Because the defenders of Tanggu and Daku had all arrived in Beijing, they captured those two places. I thought they were leaving. I escaped by sea, but I didn’t expect that a fleet came by sea a few days ago... and it was under the banner of the Third Prince of Heaven!"
Bu Mu Butai said leisurely: "Emperor, now Beijing is the gate of the country... You, the emperor is now guarding the gate of the country. This means that you can personally conquer the country every day without leaving the city of Beijing!"
