Chapter 382 General

This trick really worked - after the new soup was delivered, the prince didn't say anything more.

At this time, Gu Yaoyao also saw it—it wasn't about the food, it was Yinzhen who had something on his mind.

She raised her hand and signaled Su Peisheng and others to go down with her eyes.

The room was quiet, Gu Yaoyao put down her chopsticks, went to stand behind the fourth elder brother, and gently rubbed his shoulders.

The fourth elder brother is still in a daze.

Hong Yun was advancing and retreating with his father, so he whispered the matter in a few words at this time.

It turned out that Tsewang Arab of Junggar led a surprise attack on Lhasa and killed Lhazang Khan, the Khan of the Heshuot Khanate, causing restlessness in the northwest.

After sending capable ministers and generals to the northwest again and again, Long Live has already planned to select a prince to sit in the northwest directly this autumn.

And entrusted with heavy authority.

After all, this kind of thing is the most reassuring only for your own family.

This is almost the same thing as the "General King" mentioned before.

At that time, there was a lot of uproar, but then it died down for a while, and there was no more news of being a king.

But this time—the limelight picked up again.

In the past few days, King Zhijun recommended one person to Kangxi—the eighth elder brother Yinhu, and gave the reason: "The warlock Zhang Mingde must be very expensive if he tastes the eighth brother."

Of course, this is certainly not a good thing to say.

It's called recommendation, but it's actually exposing.

The old emperor is still in power, and it has always been taboo for the prince to find someone to tell his fortune.

Kangxi didn't want the eighth elder brother in his heart, but how could he not be angry when he heard this kind of thing?
In addition, seeing the slander of the Zhijun Wang Jin brothers, the siblings have no intention of friendship, a group of princes, you entrap me, I plot against you...

Kangxi was even more annoyed.

……

"How did it go?"

The fourth elder brother suddenly asked Gu Yaoyao.

Gu Yaoyao was startled when he asked this question without beginning or end, stopped what he was doing, leaned down and whispered in his ear: "What?"

She was only in a daze for a second, and then realized that the fourth elder brother was asking about Huabu Xiaozhu.

The fourth elder brother patted the back of her hand, pondered for a moment, a few words had reached his lips, but swallowed them again - if he really wanted to leave, he should clean up now.

But let's not talk about it yet.

He thought: What if the meaning of the last long live is not the same?

After all, God's grace is unpredictable, until the last moment - who can tell what Wansui is thinking?
……

The fourth elder brother's premonition was still very accurate: after half a month, Long Live made the will decisively.

This decree shocked the government and the public: the fourth elder brother Yinzhen was named the General of Fuyuan, and he led hundreds of thousands of Qing troops to station in the northwest frontier to quell the rebellion.

At the same time, because of Zhang Mingde, King Zhijun once again accurately stepped on Wansui's pain point - he was completely disgusted and guarded by Wansui. Not only was the mansion given to him taken back by Huang Ama, but he was also moved to a narrower and higher place. strict residence.

Concubine Hui couldn't cry this time, she heard that she begged directly in front of Wansui, and she scolded King Zhijun for being unfilial.

Let's go back to the matter of the fourth elder brother Fu Yuan.

When Gu Yaoyao heard the news, she was speechless—historically, in the later years of Kangxi, Brother Fourteen was named General Fuyuan, and made great military exploits in the Northwest.

Unexpectedly, in this time and space, the fourteenth elder brother died early, and it was the fourth elder brother who became the general of Fuyuan!

Of course, this General Fuyuan is different from the kind of business trip that the fourth elder brother used for disaster relief and inspection.

That's the Northwest after all.

What's more, since the battle is based on the emperor's standard, it can be seen how much Long Live's expectations are.

It's not like coming back after a trip-at least a year, at least ten years is also possible.

Moreover, since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, there have been very few cases where princes were sent out to lead troops to fight.

On the one hand, it was because the emperor was reluctant to kiss his son, but the more important reason was to prevent the prince from gaining military power and becoming so powerful that he could not control it.

Just to give an example: Yan Wang Zhu Di...

In other words——Long live now gave the fourth elder brother the title of General Fuyuan, which shows how much he trusts him.

And this kind of trust is also reflected in another aspect: Wansui specially allowed Yinzhen to bring his family members or his beloved concubine and children.

Generally speaking, the family members of the military commanders of the past dynasties will be kept in the imperial capital by the emperor.

It was said that the imperial court was taking care of them, but in fact they were hostages—the whole family of wives and children stayed under the eyes of the emperor. If the generals who led troops abroad dared to think carefully, the family would suffer.

Gu Yaoyao was still immersed in the shock of the fact that the fourth elder brother was made a general. It wasn't until the fourth elder brother came to find her and the children that Gu Yaoyao realized that she had to face it immediately. Another option: to go with the fourth elder brother.

Still not going.

The reason why people can be in a dilemma in front of choices is because there are choices.

Like those generals whose family members were detained in the first place, they didn't care about this choice.

If you don't go - on the one hand, I don't know how long it will take for the fourth elder brother to come back, and on the other hand...to put it presumptuously, after all, Long Live is already old, and the matter of seizing the heir has been the goal that the princes have been eyeing for many years.

The fourth elder brother has an army of hundreds of thousands, and has the opportunity to make military contributions in the northwest. No matter how you look at it, he is a big piece of fat that attracts jealousy and envy.

If one day he returns to the capital, he will be the most terrifying military force in the eyes of everyone.

It is inevitable.

If something happened in the capital in the past few years—no matter who among the princes controlled the situation, as long as the fourth elder brother came back, the first thing that person would think of would be to surround the Old Summer Palace.

Prince Yong's concubine and his children were closely "guarded and protected".

Even Gu Yaoyao can think of this level, and the fourth elder brother naturally thinks of it even more.

This is why he prefers to take Gu Yaoyao and the children away.

Hong Yun was on the side, but he was very excited, and he showed his white teeth in a smile.

Ever since he heard about this, he felt the blood in his chest was boiling every day, and he kept saying that he would follow Ama to the northwest to suppress the rebellion.

Good man, who is afraid of the Northwest fierce knife and wind and sand?
Then there is the question of five grids.

Originally, Wu Gege was the adopted daughter sent by King Zhijun. If it is really inconvenient for the fourth elder brother, it is not impossible to send the child back.

After all, his father is still there.

Besides, it's unbearable to think about going to the northwest with a little girl who is only a few years old.

But now I didn't expect that King Zhijun would be in such a situation. In this way, Wu Gege sent back to his biological father may not be much better than in the northwest.

Probably not so much.

In addition, Gu Yaoyao always thinks about Wei's entrustment to her - if the child can be protected by Zhijun Wang alone, Wei will not ask her to adopt her daughter.

Now that Gu Yaoyao has been taking care of Wu Gege for half a year, she has already developed feelings for this little doll—just send her back to the range where Wu Yashi is coveting...

Gu Yaoyao is not happy even thinking about it.
