On June 21, the twenty-sixth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign in Mongolia, a group of people wearing sackcloth and wearing filial piety had gathered at the gate of Yongding, the south gate of Shangjing City. White flags and flags have been hoisted, and a white archway has been erected in accordance with the regulations of national mourning.
The person who just passed by was the Emperor and Empress Dowager of the Qing Dynasty... there were three characters for "tai"! That's really huge and boundless. How low could it be to impose mourning regulations on her?
Respectable people inside and outside Great Mongolia, when they learned that the old Queen Mother was gone, hurriedly rushed to Shangjing to attend the funeral! I don’t know which big shot is coming today? When the Buddha dawned, soldiers from the Eight Confucian Banners came to the capital to maintain order. After some time, a lot of Sauron cavalry and Xibo cavalry from the Eight Banners of Mongolia actually came... Yi Shui's breastplates and horse helmets, they were the soldiers of the Mongolian Khan Kang Mazi! I rarely appear in Shangjing, but I didn't expect that I would come here today.
As the sun gradually rose, large groups of officials from the Western Qing Dynasty wearing mourning clothes came out of various squares on horseback and gathered inside Yongding Gate.
Also coming with them was Ding Zhuang, a scholar from the Eight Banners who lived in various houses in the city. These people usually lived in and outside the city. Zhuangzi lived. Most of them live in two places. The eldest wife and the children raised by the eldest wife live in the city. There is usually a room of orchids outside the city... No one can live a small life!
These elders of the Eight Confucian Banners are very familiar with each other. Now that they are together, they soon start to inquire about each other.
"Look, Xiong Zhongtang is here! He was supervising the construction of the city in Suiye Mansion a while ago. He just came back last night. I didn't expect to come to pick someone up early this morning. I don't know who the person is picking up?"
"There is also Zhang Laozhongtang. Isn't Lao Zhongtang supervising the army in the valley? Why is he back too?"
"I didn't do it until yesterday afternoon, and I'm here to pick someone up today."
"Who are you picking up?"
"Who else could it be? Of course it's...the Supreme Emperor!"
The Confucian Eight Banners who went to Beijing usually would not call Kangxi the Great Khan. In their view, Kangxi was still the Supreme Emperor of the Qing Dynasty!
"Your Majesty? He's finally here? The old lady, your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty and your Majesty are all gone. How could he..."
"Hey, isn't this obvious? Isn't this Your Majesty really..."
"Keep your voice down, keep your voice down, don't talk nonsense! Be careful not to be overheard by those Sauron soldiers and Xibo soldiers, they are the Supreme Beings!"
These Confucian Eight Banner men have almost forgotten how to be slaves in the past few years?
And they are not slaves, but have become the masters of Central Asia together with Horqin Mongolia.
Now the main forces of the Mongolian Eight Banners, the Qing Eight Banners, and the Hui Eight Banners have gone to India or Afghanistan. In Central Asia, the Ruba Banners and the Horqin Mongolians on the Kazakh grasslands are living together... The two sides are also very friendly. With the help of the old queen mother, the newly married Qingba Banner children in the past two years have all married Horqin Mongolian girls, and the Qingba Banner girls have also married to Horqin.
The infantry and artillery of the Confucian Eight Banners are powerful, and they can make iron tools and advanced firearms. And Horqin's cavalry are very powerful and can raise horses.
Once the two sides cooperate, Central Asia will be invincible!
Moreover, the Junggar in the east and the Golden Horde in the north and west were all on good terms with Kangxi Khan and would not send troops to fight against the Confucian Eight Banners and Horqin, so they were so nourished that they almost forgot about it and dared to discuss the authenticity of Kangxi Khan.
Of course, more extreme things are yet to come!
I don't know who suddenly shouted: "The Emperor is here!"
The disciples of the Confucian Eight Banners who were originally standing to watch the excitement turned around and saw a group of Horqin cavalry wearing mourning clothes riding towards Xiqing Khan Yinreng.
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"
The voice of shouting "Long Live the Mountain" started immediately!
The disciples of the Eight Banners of Western Qing Confucianism who were originally standing on the straight street inside Yongding Gate to welcome Kangxi all knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live the Emperor"!
Yinreng was riding on the horse, and when he was feeling sad, he heard the people around him shouting long live the mountain!
He still didn't understand, so he asked Wang Yan, his teacher who was half a horse behind him and one of the five Confucian leaders: "Teacher, they are shouting long live the emperor... but I don't see the emperor." Amma.”
Wang Yan stroked his gray beard and said with a serious face: "The emperor they are calling is you!"
"Me?" Yinreng frowned, "But isn't the Emperor my Amma?"
"It used to be," Wang Yan said, "but after losing the city of Beijing, you will be the emperor. Everyone in the Qing Dynasty knows it. From then on, you will be the emperor of our Qing Dynasty! So you must cheer up, effort......"
Upon hearing this, Yinreng seemed to understand something, frowned and whispered: "I know, it turns out that he is really not my Ama!"
Wang Yan was startled by his words. Of course, the old man had also heard the rumors about the "real and fake Emperor Ama", but he knew the truth - he was also a civil servant walking in the south study room back then, and he and Kang Mazi never looked up but looked down. , can he know whether the current Kangxi Khan is real?
"Your Majesty," Wang Yan felt like saying to Yin Reng, "Your Ama is really your Ama, and she is a fake!"
When Yinreng heard what he said, he nodded. His childish and chubby face wrinkled up, and he lowered his voice and said, "Teacher, I understand... I am the one who changed It’s coming!”
What? In exchange for it? Wang Yan didn't even know what to say to his students. Although Yin Reng was a bit stupid and didn't like to study, and always ignored his homework just because he was the king, he still wouldn't change the "real thing" It is understood as "Amma was exchanged for it".
"Wrong, wrong," Wang Yan quickly shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, this is not what I meant. What I meant was..."
"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor, long live the Emperor..."
How could Yinreng hear Wang Yan's words? Inside and outside Yongding Gate, at this time, there was already a cry of long live the mountains!
And Yinreng had no intention of discussing the meaning of "guaranteed replacement" with Old Man Wang. No matter how careful he is in reading, he can still interpret "it's true" literally. However, as a king and emperor, he still has some political acumen and knows that some things cannot be said openly and must be said in "black words".
Doesn't "guaranteed replacement if fake" have a "fake" and a "replacement"? Isn't it just implying that the current Kangxi is fake and has really been replaced by someone else!
Coupled with Bumbutai's last words and the rumors that had reached his ears over the years, Yinreng was already 70% to 80% sure that his Ama had been transferred.
However, when it comes to Amma’s authenticity, it is not enough to be only 70% or 80% sure, you must be 100% sure. So Yinreng plans to conduct further testing after meeting Kangxi Khan later... He must find out whether Amma is true or false, and then decide what to do?
Thinking of this, Yinreng waved his whip, drove his horse forward, and ran towards Yongding Gate amidst the cheers of the Confucian Eight Banner disciples.
...
At this time, Kangxi Khan also heard the voice of the mountains calling for long live.
He had already been escorted by thousands of Suolun cavalry and Xibo cavalry who guarded the army camp, as well as more than ten thousand Qing Eight Banners infantry fusiliers, and drove to the Yongding Gate of the south gate of Shangjing Prefecture, which was only three or four miles away from Yongding Gate City. Son.
A familiar Chinese-style castle had suddenly appeared in front of Kangxi Khan.
Of course, this Chinese-style castle is not as majestic as the city of Beijing. The city wall is not high at all, only a little more than two feet. It is not covered with bricks, only exposed rammed earth, which looks very ugly. The Yongdingmen city is also bare. There are no towers or arrow towers at all, just a bare rammed earth platform. If the trenches and sheep and horse walls outside the city were not well built, and there were many triangular pyramids and horse surfaces built outside the city wall (this was based on the design of the bastion), this castle would definitely give people the impression that it was built haphazardly. Feel.
But even such a modest Shangjing city still aroused the homesickness of Kangxi Khan!
Looking at the city getting closer and closer, Kangxi Khan's eyes became moist. Although he has Nanjing Pingtianfu (Lahore), Beijing Kaitianfu (Samarkand) and Shangjing Qitianfu (Tashkent), the one that really haunts him is Beijing Shuntianfu...
There's no going back!
As soon as Kangxi Khan thought of this, the Chinese voice of "Long Live the Mountain" sounded in his ears.
He suddenly woke up from his thoughts and found that he was already among the soldiers and bannermen of the Eight Confucian Banners who were kneeling along the road to greet him. He looked up again and found that he had arrived at the Yongding Gate of Qitian Mansion in Shangjing.
The long bridge on the trench outside Yongding Gate was about ten steps in front of Kangxi Khan. Both sides of the road outside the long trench were already crowded with banner soldiers and banner people shouting "Long Live the Mountain". It had been a long time since people who spoke Chinese had been like this. Kangxi Khan, who knelt down to greet him, seemed to have found the feeling of being a holy master in the Central Plains again, so he reined in his horse and waved to people on both sides of the road.
With this wave of his hand, Kangxi realized something was wrong. Why were all the kneeling flag soldiers and flag people facing Yongding Gate?
Although in the Central Plains, the common people kneeling to welcome the emperor could not raise their heads to see what the emperor looked like. But they can't turn their faces to the emperor. They should lie on the ground and face the loess with their backs to the sky!
How could anyone straighten his upper body and turn his face towards the emperor?
Just as Kangxi thought of this, someone came over on the long bridge in front of him, and at the same time, the voice of the mountain shouting "Long Live the Mountain" became louder.
Kangxi hurriedly looked up and saw a young man wearing sackcloth and mourning, riding a tall Persian horse, slowly approaching surrounded by a group of courtiers also wearing mourning clothes. Kangxi took another closer look and finally recognized that this young man was his son, the prince of the Great Mongolia and the Khan of the Western Qing Khanate, Aisin Gioro Yinreng.
"Long live the Qing Dynasty! Long live the Qing Emperor!"
I don't know who suddenly exerted all his strength and shouted, followed by deafening cheers: "Long live the Qing Dynasty! Long live the Qing Emperor!"
Kangxi thought to himself: "It seems that the Eight Confucian Banners are still loyal to the Qing Dynasty... No! The Qing Dynasty is gone! I am no longer the emperor of the Qing Dynasty! Then who are they cheering for?"
Just when Kangxi thought of this, the young man who came on horseback had already reined in the horse on the long bridge, and then he saw him slowly raising his right arm. As soon as he raised his hand, people gradually stopped cheering, and soon both sides of the long bridge became quiet.
It turned out that the banner soldiers and banner people of the Confucian Eight Banners were cheering for Yinreng.
Although Yinreng has not been the emperor for a long time, the bannermen and bannermen of the Confucian Eight Banners still regard Yinreng as their emperor and the emperor of the Qing Dynasty...
Kangxi's face became very gloomy when he thought of this.
Emperor of the Qing Dynasty...just because he is not worthy of it does not mean that others can be the emperor!
"My son, Yin Reng, respectfully wishes the Emperor's holy peace!"
At this time, Yinreng had already dismounted from his horse and knelt down to worship Kangxi Khan.
Kangxi looked down and felt even more angry. It turned out that Yinreng was still kneeling on the deck of the long bridge, at least ten steps away from him!
This Yinreng didn't go out of the city suburbs to greet him before, but now he kneels on the long bridge to greet him from a distance... Is this the attitude a filial son should have?
Thinking of this, Kangxi became a little annoyed and said: "Yinreng, why are you kneeling so far away?"
"Emperor Ama," Yinreng said, "The Emperor and the Empress Dowager gave instructions before her death that she should not leave Shangjing Fucheng until her errands are finished... So please, Your Majesty Forgive me."
Kangxi's face turned pale.
Because Yinreng called Bumbutai the Supreme Queen Mother, not the Queen Mother.
The Supreme Empress Dowager represents the legal system of the Qing Dynasty - because her seniority is calculated from Emperor Yinreng of Tongzhi.
The Empress Dowager represents the legal system of Great Mongolia, because Kangxi is her grandson.
Now that Yinreng calls Bumbutai this way, it means that he still considers himself the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
This is a traitor!
How can the imperial power be allowed to be interfered with by others? When Kangxi was about to have an attack, the voice of Kong Shenggong suddenly came from the side: "Great Khan, it's getting late, let's go into the city!"
After hearing Kong Shenggong's words, Kangxi immediately calmed down.
It is true that Yinreng is a traitor, but now he is a powerful traitor. He is disobedient and unfilial based on his strength!
The 200,000 Confucian Eight Banners who came to the capital city all regarded him as the emperor!
Another big leader of the Confucian Eight Banners, Confucian Kong Shenggong, was Yinreng's teacher and regent, and also Yinreng's father-in-law... In addition, the Confucian Eight Banners are now married to Horqin Mongolia! The second wife that Kong Shenggong married in Shangjing Mansion was Gege from Prince Horqin's Mansion, and one of Kong Shenggong's daughters married into Prince Horqin's Mansion.
The Western Qing Dynasty, Confucianism, the Eight Confucian Banners, and the Horqin Mongolia have all joined together. If Kangxi wanted to depose Yinfeng, they would probably raise an army to resist!
"Okay, okay..." Kangxi could only endure it. He nodded and said, "Yinreng, get back on your feet."
Unfair? Kangxi said in his heart: "Want to apologize?"
At this time, Yin Reng suddenly said loudly: "My son, please ask Emperor Ama to lead our warriors from the Qing Eight Banners, the Mongolian Eight Banners, the Ru Eight Banners, Horqin, Junggar, and Heshuote to march eastward, fight back to the Central Plains, and return the capital to Beijing... ...Recover the place where the tombs of the ancestors of the Qing Dynasty are located! Huang Ama, take us back and fight back!"
When Kangxi heard what Yin Reng said, he was stunned for a moment... This traitor wanted to force his mother to die. This was really treason!
