Emperor Kangxi sent me to marry

It was the fifth princess who lost the gun. She was full of guilt and explained what happened to her sister in detail.

"Lao Shi said that he wanted to look at the gun again, and Mama also said that the box seemed a little stingy, and asked me to find a big one, put the gun and projectiles together, and add something else to make it look fuller. I'll go find it. the two of them."

Fugui slapped himself hard and knelt on the ground to apologize.

"The slave was in a hurry to relieve himself and was not around. This left Miss Axiang alone."

Axiang was responsible for everything she did, and she didn't intend to excuse herself. She knelt down and cried silently.The fifth princess helped them both up with her own hands.

"I don't blame them, it's all me. At first, Axiang wanted to wait for Fugui to come back. I wondered how big of a deal this could be, and it was done in the blink of an eye. I took her with me to find a new box in the room where the luggage was stored. I had just replaced it. At the end, Ma Ma’s medicine arrived. Ma Ma said she couldn’t find the candied fruits she had bought, and asked me if they were in the luggage. I took the two mothers and Axiang and rummaged through the boxes and cabinets to find the bottle containing the candied fruits.”

After finding the candied fruit, Axiang looked back at the box again, and saw that the pistol and bullets were all gone.

Haifeng roughly grasped the ins and outs of this "theft case" and couldn't help but feel a little bit lucky.

It seems that students facing the college entrance examination were suddenly informed that the fateful examination day has been postponed for another three days.

"Does Mama know?"

The tenth prince, who had been standing at the door, thought of a possibility and answered before the fifth princess.

"Ma Ma took the medicine and fell asleep without knowing it. Fourth sister, let me tell you, the jadeite and cat's eye stone you set on the handle of the gun attracted thieves. This place is not like the Forbidden City. Maybe one of the slaves heard it, The gun and bullets combined are worth several thousand taels. I thought the gems were valuable, so I planned to steal them, dig them out and sell them for money."

The fifth princess refused to accept this speculation and immediately shook her head.

"No one in the palace would dare to steal Fourth Sister's things."

"So I said, this place is no better than the Forbidden City! How many servants did we bring out? Didn't Masika also donate a group of people to follow orders in the palace? They have not been rehearsed by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, so naturally they don't know how high the sky is. "

Haifeng felt that Brother Ten's words made some sense.

It's hard to find anyone who recognizes this pistol.There probably won't be anyone who specializes in stealing guns, but there will be plenty of people who are greedy for jewelry.

The tenth prince is more serious than the usual playboy prince, and he comes up with ideas one after another.

"Fourth sister, the top priority is to send someone to deliver a message to Khan Ama. No, this gun is very powerful. If someone takes it outside to cause trouble in the future, sister, you can't tell. Tell Khan immediately. Amma, I’ll take it out for you and your brother-in-law first.”

For a moment, Haifeng couldn't find any excuse to object, and just watched the tenth prince leave.

Perhaps her opportunity has not really arrived yet.He was clearly prepared, but accidentally lost his gun.

The fifth princess asked Zhong Jihai to accompany her sister, and she took Axiang out. She organized her cronies to search the houses and luggage of all the servants in the palace one by one to see if they could find any clues.Of course Zhong Jihai was also discouraged, but he still slowly opened up to Haifeng.

"Just throw it away. God doesn't want to help you, so complaining is useless. Just wait and see."

When Haifeng was thinking about how to tell Dobu and Gao Shiqi about this, a nanny was so happy that she even forgot the rules of greeting her and walked towards her after entering the room.

"Your Highness the Fourth Princess, the treasure has been found! It's in the well!"

Zhong Jihai took the lead and ran out. Haifeng was even slow for a moment before he remembered to follow her out.

"How did you find it?"

"Did Master forget in a hurry? How big is the palace? Her Highness the Fifth Princess said that the baggage should be searched, so the thief was afraid of being found out, so he just threw it away!"

When they arrived at the well, the fifth princess was holding on to the wet pistol, but not a single valuable jewel was left on the gun handle.

"Fourth sister, you are here! I asked a few eunuchs who know how to swim to go down and fish out the pellets. I just fished out one. The one was too small and difficult to find in the water. This daring one will be thrown into the water if I know who it is. Let’s go to the Division of Punishment and hit a hundred shots first! I don’t know if the gun and projectiles are still usable after being soaked in water?”

"I don't know, ask your brother-in-law. I think the bullets are wrapped in copper sheets, so it doesn't matter. It seems your brother-in-law said the gun can be taken apart. If it is dried over a fire, it should still be usable."

Zhong Jihai took out his handkerchief and wiped the pistol carefully. He even imitated Fugui's actions and took out the bullet wheel, wiped the grooves and the copper needle. Not forgetting in the process, he handed Haifeng a Warm glances.

It was as if she were saying, 'See, I told you, God would take care of you.' '

The sun was about to set, and Kangxi might come back at any time.Haifeng wanted to see Duobu and Gao Shiqi as soon as possible to see how to adjust the plan and send three or four people out to inquire about the news.

However, the first one to come back was the panting Tenth Brother.

"Fourth sister, after listening to my brother-in-law talk about the power of the pistol, Khan Ama ordered that we not eat for now and find the gun first! You guys"

Zhong Jihai put the dried gun into Brother Ten's hand, making him dance with joy.

"Oh, how much trouble this saves! Let me tell you, the thief is interested in the jadeite! What a waste of things. Firearms are most afraid of water!"

At this point, we can only take one step at a time and adapt to circumstances.Haifeng asked Axiang to fetch the gift box, put the pistol and the pitiful bullet in it again, then took it himself and called the tenth prince and the fifth princess to see Kangxi.

Not long after the large procession entered the palace, each family's attendants held several torches and were busy gathering weapons and trophies for their master.

Kangxi stood casually in the center of the yard and commented with Duobu on the pedigree of a horse.When he saw his son and daughters coming with gift boxes, just as Gao Shiqi described, he felt very happy. "Come, let me take a look. What a great thing. It was stolen that day."

Gao Shiqi stood behind Kangxi, appearing more intimate than the position of the prince and other princes.Haifeng felt that he was a bit evil, just like a vixen with a changed personality. Should he be called Male Daji?He could coax Kangxi into being stunned.

With him boasting and exaggerating the atmosphere, almost all the clan members and ministers standing around, waiting for the emperor's order to rest in the room, were attracted by the pistol and gathered around.

Haifeng opened the box. Duobu held it in his hand first and weighed the pistol twice.

After all, anything you make can feel like something is wrong even if it's just a little bit heavy.Dobu frowned.

"Khan Ama, do you want to try again tomorrow? I'm afraid there is some water in here. Besides, it's just one projectile, and the effectiveness of continuous shots cannot be measured."

Kangxi looked at the eager eyes around him and felt that it would be too disappointing not to try it, so he took it directly.

"It's okay, just give it a try. On the way back, weren't we divided into two groups? One group said that this is not very useful; the other group said that it is very useful. If there is a little water, the gun will misfire. Just consider it useless. Dobu, you will have to lose to me, two hundred good sheep!"

In addition to Duobu, the fifth princess's consort, Shun Anyan, and the third princess's consort, Garzang, were also accompanying them. They took advantage of the opportunity and added some gifts to join in the fun.

Kangxi filled the bullet in as Duobu said.Liang Jiugong wanted to call someone to come over with a target, but Kangxi did not agree.

"It's just a bullet. It's not worth the effort to mobilize the troops. I see, the fruit on the cherry tree is red and lovely. I will shoot down a branch with one shot. The four princesses will watch it for dinner. Let's make some snacks for the Queen Mother."

He just finished speaking, and to everyone's surprise, he raised his hand and fired.

Boom!
Perhaps it was because some water had entered it, but when Haifeng heard it, the gunshots sounded muffled than when Dobu tested it.

But, what a blessing!No misfires!
In such a bad situation, there is no misfire!
Miracle!
Moreover, the sun had already set, and the moonlight was not satisfactory. Under the harsh conditions where all the torches were used for illumination, Kangxi really hit the fork of the cherry tree, and a twig swayed down.

Gao Shiqi and Liang Jiugong sang and complimented each other vigorously, saying beautiful words such as "The Emperor is wise and powerful" and "His Majesty has a sharp eye".The surrounding ministers reacted accordingly, and some even clapped and cheered.

Haifeng was so excited that his eyes were wet, and he kept lamenting that he had finally had good luck, and did not bother to observe Kangxi's reaction in the darkness.

Fortunately, the fifth princess suddenly pulled her sleeves, and when she spoke, even her tone of voice was out of shape.

"Fourth sister, you, look, am I dazzled? Why do you think something is wrong with Khan Ama, Khan Ama?"

After being reminded, Haifeng looked in the direction of Kangxi and was surprised.

Putting it all together, she and Kangxi, who was known as 'one emperor through the ages', lived together for almost 30 years.

She had seen anger, sadness, joy, and hesitation on the emperor's face, but she had never seen fear or fear.

But at this moment, although it was concealed very cleverly, Haifeng saw it.

Kangxi was afraid.

He stared at the revolver that had used the recoil to automatically rotate to the next bullet position without moving at all.

However, that strange emotion only appeared on Kangxi's face for a short while.

Before long, he was as peaceful as before, greeting his sons-in-law with a smile.

"It seems that I have lost this bet. I will call the Ministry of Internal Affairs tomorrow to prepare fifty good horses for each of you. Where is the fourth princess?"

Haifeng heard it and stepped forward quickly.

"Khan Ama, my son and I are here."

"Good boy, go and prepare the banquet."

"Yes."

With his head dizzy, Haifeng could hardly walk steadily, and his posture was crooked.Ah Xiang noticed that she was feeling unwell and volunteered to go to the kitchen to deliver the message.Haifeng was alone, holding on to the big tree on the roadside, and breathed out one breath after another.

Is this half the battle?

It's a pity that Gao Shiqi didn't have time to communicate.

He must know what Kangxi is really thinking now.

"Fourth sister! Fourth sister!"

Haifeng looked back and saw that the fifth princess was catching up and calling her from a distance. After trotting over, she imitated her and leaned against the tree trunk to catch her breath.

"Fifth sister, tell me, do we still have any manners like princesses? If we want the nuns to see us, we have to be nagging unbearably."

"Sister, I, I won't be a princess tonight. It's so tiring to work for Khan Amma with all the airs. Do you know what Khan Amma whispered to me just now? He said, it's just to take care of the well. After it’s drained, we have to fish out all the remaining eleven pellets before dawn!”
