Chapter 745 Tai Chi Pushing Hands ([-])

On March 58th, 27th year of Kangxi, Wang Hongqing of Renjun came to invite the military exercise, and the emperor allowed it, and Hongqing supervised it. With the old thirteen and Lang Hao as his deputy, the military exercise was scheduled to be held in Nanyuan on April 26. , as soon as the news was published, the whole world was shocked, and many people from the surrounding provinces hurried to the capital in order to see the excitement, and the morale of the people was greatly boosted, sweeping away the long-term war on the western front The haze of indecision.

Military exercises are a major national event, and the time is tight. It only takes one month from the edict to the official military exercise. It is obviously not an easy task to hold a grand event that declares its strength to the outside world, but Hong Qing does not. Because of this, she was flustered. In fact, except for the first two days, Hong Qing had invited Lao Shisan and Lang Yu's two assistants to Zangzhuzhai to discuss several times, and then stopped interfering in it, and handed over all matters to The two assistants went to take care of it. It wasn't that Hong Qing was negligent about the military exercise, but that he was too busy to take care of it. Besides, there was no need for Hong Qing to have such a master of military strategy as Lao Shisan. Qing was too worried. As for the group of Russian missions, after a while in the Summer Palace, Hong Qing stopped paying attention and left it to the Li Fan Yuan for disposal. , but invite all people from Russia to observe the military exercise, and ignore all other requests for negotiations.

The days went on like this day by day, and in a blink of an eye, Qingming had passed, and Hong Qing, who was busy with the arrangement of the ancestor worship ceremony, resumed her daily office work again and again. Every day, she was not writing official documents, or summoning officials from various ministries and places, From time to time, I have to deal with Zhu's criticisms that the old man turned back. I am really exhausted. Fortunately, I have accumulated a lot of experience after more than three months in charge of government affairs, and the speed of handling official documents is also faster than At the beginning, it was several times faster, and more than two-thirds of the official affairs that had been backlogged for more than a year were finally dealt with. Although there were more than [-] copies of the remaining backlog of official documents, most of them were not urgent, but they were real. It still takes a lot of time and energy to deal with it, this is hard work, there is no shortcut, and Hong Qing can only continue her hard work patiently.

Busy, busy, this kind of life is really not that easy to endure, no, today I started to be busy again early in the morning, it is almost noon, and I haven't been able to calm down yet, my stomach is already so hungry The front heart is on the back, just thinking about passing the meal, but before he could say anything, he saw Zhang Zhao hurried in from the outside again, and Hong Qing had to stop the words of the meal when it came to his mouth up.

"My lord, Song Zhu, Lord Song is here."

Seeing Hong Qing's gaze sweeping over, Zhang Zhao didn't dare to neglect in the slightest, hurriedly rushed forward, bowed, and hastened to report.

"Well, please."

Hearing that Song Zhu, the big bastard, came, Hong Qing couldn't help but feel dizzy for a while, nothing else, this old guy has no skills, and his ability to make trouble is definitely first-rate, I don't know why the old man fell in love with it Having such a master, he insisted on elevating him to the high position of a bachelor, which is simply embarrassing others. Hong Qing really doesn't want to see him, but this old man is a bachelor after all, and everyone has already come It's really not good if I don't see you last time. In desperation, Hong Qing could only wave her hands and called out with a trace of impatience.

"twitter!"

Zhang Zhaoneng was sent by the old man to serve Hong Qing, so he was naturally not a master who has no eyesight. At this moment, when he heard that Hong Qing's voice was not right, how could he dare to say more, he hurriedly responded respectfully, and hurriedly left the office without hesitation. , I saw an old man in a civil official's attire arrogance and arrogance turned out from behind the screen, but I saw his ruddy complexion, square face, and sword eyebrows, and he walked vigorously. The demeanor is still imposing, this person is Song Zhu, the new scholar of the Wenhua Palace.

"The lower official has seen the prince!"

Song Zhu was tall and burly, with great strides, he had already walked in front of the copy in just a few strides, and bowed and cupped his hands towards Hong Qing, saluting loudly.

"President Song doesn't need to stick to etiquette, please sit down, come and serve tea."

Although he didn't want to see Song Zhu, but Hong Qing would not lose half a penny of the courtesy and dignity that should be given to him. With a single order, a group of young eunuchs who were waiting on the side rushed to carry it. After picking up the jindunzi and the tea table, Song Zhu was respectfully invited to sit down, and he was offered a bowl of freshly brewed fragrant tea.

"My lord, I came here for the military exercise. I was surprised to hear that the military exercises were all firearms soldiers. Everyone in the military department was in an uproar. There were a lot of complaints everywhere, and they all reported it to the lower official. It's a matter of great concern to me." The Qing ancestor system, you must not be careless, and the lower officials have no choice but to come to the prince to discuss it."

Song Zhu was a martial artist, very impatient, and when Bu sat down, he didn't say much in greeting, and blasted Hong Qing with a loud voice.

"Oh? I don't know what Lord Song is referring to..."

Hearing that Song Zhu's mouth and mouth were all about the family law of the ancestors, Hong Qing's eyebrows twitched immediately, and she vaguely guessed what the old man wanted to say, but he didn't point it out, but pretended to be puzzled Asked out half of the words.

"Your Majesty, I have always used bows and horses to pass down my family in the Qing Dynasty. The Taizu and Taizong all have clear instructions. No one from my Eight Banners should arbitrarily abandon the bow and horse. This is the way of my Eight Banners to strengthen the army. As for those who hold fire sticks You bastard, it’s nothing more than an ingenious trick, how can you use it to control the world, and now the so-called military exercise, there is no reason for me to appear on the stage with the Eight Banners bow and horse? The official has gone to see the Holy One, and His Majesty has given an order to let I don't know how the prince intends to deal with this matter when I come to find the prince to resolve this matter."

Song Zhu spent most of his life commanding troops abroad, and rarely returned to Beijing. Hearing all kinds of legends about Hongqing, but from the bottom of my heart, I don’t think that Hongqing is capable. Not only does he not accept it, but he thinks that Hongqing is suspected of rebellion. When he was leading the army abroad, he often criticized Hongqing’s military system. This time, he came to Beijing to take up the post of a university scholar. He thought he would be able to become a general, but unexpectedly, he was sent by Hongqing to the Ministry of War to stay there. After being provoked, he couldn't help but ran to Master Hong Qingxing to question him.

"Well, according to Master Song, what kind of regulations should be used for this military exercise?"

Even though she had already expected Song Zhu's intentions before, Hong Qing couldn't help being furious after hearing that he would come out, but she didn't get angry at him, but nodded calmly and humbly Asked a question.

"My Eight Banners bow and vest are all over the world. Since I want to perform military exercises, of course elite troops should take part in the battle, so as to show the power of my Qing Dynasty!"

Song Zhu is a stubborn old man. Although he had heard of the sharpness of the new army, he never took it seriously. He didn't even bother to learn more about it. When asked, self-righteously put forward stupid opinions.

Damn, what kind of person is this? He's still a bachelor, he doesn't understand farts, he's really just a mess waiting to die!
Hearing Song Zhu's words, Hong Qing really couldn't laugh or cry, no one else, the new army is in the Fengtai camp, so close to the capital, as a bachelor in charge of the Ministry of War, even the new army is Don't know what kind of army, but dare to talk nonsense in this central place, it's simply a fool to the extreme!
"Oh? I don't know if the Holy Majesty has any orders for this?"

Although I am extremely bored with Lao Song's ignorance and fearlessness, but he is a great scholar after all, and he claims to have invited the old man to come here, no matter how impatient Hong Qing is, he is not good at attacking him on the spot Moreover, the family tradition of bowing and horses is indeed the teaching of the ancestors. Hong Qing can vigorously encourage the new army, but he cannot publicly declare that the teachings of the ancestors are inappropriate. Let alone Hong Qing, even the old man would not dare to say such a thing Because of this, even though Hong Qing was extremely dissatisfied, she didn't say anything, she just gave a noncommittal noncommittal, and then changed the topic.

"Your Majesty has an edict saying: This matter should be dealt with with great care, and the subordinate officials came to discuss with the prince. As far as the subordinate officials know, there are not only five thousand Rehe brought by the wolf and Mr. Lang in the Fengtai camp. The elite cavalry, and more than [-] loyal and brave soldiers who are skilled in bows and horses, should be enough for military exercises, I don't know what the prince wants?"

Hearing Hongqing asked about the oracle, Song Zhuzhen thought that what he said had convinced Hongqing, and he was in a good mood, so he proposed a sentence with a complacent expression on his face.

Hong Qing had a good idea of ​​the distribution of the Fengtai camp's military strength. In fact, the more than 52 "loyal and brave soldiers skilled in bow and horse" mentioned by Song Zhu were originally going to be reorganized into a new army—as early as Kangxi In [-], the old man approved the proposal of the old fourteen, but at the beginning, the old fourteen wanted to transform the army of the whole country, but unfortunately the old man didn't agree, and only approved the reform of the Fengtai camp, and this obviously has To further expand the suspicion of Hongqing and Lao Shisan's influence, Lao Shisi naturally did not want to do it, and procrastinated and refused to deal with it. After the war on the Western Front came together later, the matter would be settled, and it turned out that So, this has led to the current situation of half-new and half-old troops in the Fengtai Camp. When it comes to combat effectiveness, the old army combined cannot match the strength of a regiment of the new army. Obviously, this is not what Old Song thinks So elite and invincible, there is no doubt that Old Song is just talking nonsense with his eyes open.

"Well, let Xiao Wang think about this matter for a while, and then discuss it with Uncle Thirteen and General Wolf. If there is something easier, please let His Majesty approve it. Lord Song, please go back first."

Hong Qing was really too lazy to talk nonsense with Song Zhu, and it was hard to say that he was incompetent, so he could only play Tai Chi and push his hands, so he politely issued an order to chase away the guests.

"uh-huh!"

Song Zhu originally thought that Hong Qing should be quick to second his opinion after expressing such a brilliant opinion, but he never thought that Hong Qing would be so disrespectful. It's not easy to look at him, it's just that his status is high or low. Although Song Zhu was very annoyed, he didn't dare to get angry on the spot, but after seeing him glaring at Hong Qing, he snorted heavily again, and then just slapped him. Big sleeves, didn't even say anything about the scene, so he left in such a huff...
