Chapter 945 The Temptation of Not Being Popular ([-])

"If you don't see the army at the end of the Han Dynasty, the weak crowned captive invites long tassels. If you don't see Ban Dingyuan, the Jueyu Qingqi urges Zhanyun..."

"No clothes? I'm in the same robe as my son. The king Yu Xingshi repaired my spear. I have the same hatred as my son..."

……

Although it's already August, the sun is still very bright. It's not a pleasant thing to march in such a hot day, let alone trek in the unobstructed desert. Suffering is really not that easy to endure, but the soldiers of the Qing army who returned in triumph did not feel the pain at all. The songs of each division and regiment sang one after another, and the morale of the army was extremely high. There is no other, the army is coming to Zhenyuan The city is not far from the pass, which means that the journey of turning thousands of miles to battle is coming to an end. For the soldiers who have survived the bloody battle, is there anything more worthy of celebration than returning to their homeland?Obviously not!
"Report, report to the lord, Li Dequan, the head of the Qianqing Palace, has come to pass the decree, and has arrived at the former army, please tell the lord clearly."

In the Central Army Department, although Hong Qing had never sang songs with all the soldiers, she had a faint smile on her face, and was walking forward confidently, when she saw a cavalier galloping from the front of the team , rolled the saddle very neatly and got off the horse, and made a standard blow to Hong Qing, and reported with great respect.

"Order: The whole army stops, and the generals of each legion and above immediately follow the king to the front army to receive the order."

Hearing that Li Dequan came to deliver the decree, although Hong Qing's expression remained calm, there was a flash of brilliance in her eyes, but she didn't express anything else, she just raised her hand and her voice The order was issued peacefully, and immediately, the sound of horns sounded one after another, and the army that was moving forward stopped. go……

"By God's fortune, the emperor's edict said: Thanks to the three armies' orders, the western border has been pacified, and I am very relieved. However, although the chaos is pacified, the hearts of the people are hard to say. Therefore, I ordered Tashan to be the general of Yili, and the governor of the military and government in northern Xinjiang. Matters: Li Minxing, the governor of Sichuan, transferred to the governor of southern Xinjiang, and his troops deployed defenses on the spot to prevent the resurgence of banditry; Thousands of troops have entered Sichuan, and the post of Sichuan admiral will accompany the committee. I have no reason not to object, and I respect it!"

Li Dequan still had that expressionless face of death, and he never exchanged pleasantries with Hong Qing and the others. Once the incense case was prepared, he immediately announced Emperor Chengde's will in a serious manner.

"Thank you, Lord Long, long live my emperor, long live, long live!"

On the surface, there seems to be nothing wrong with Emperor Chengde's edict. It is basically just a military and political arrangement after the war. The right to appoint the admiral was handed over to Hong Qing, but considering Hong Qing's illustrious military exploits this time, this unique situation is justified, the generals will not be surprised, and thanked them in accordance with the court regulations Afterwards, everyone got up, only Yue Zhongqi's eyes flashed a hint of doubt, but at this moment, he didn't dare to say anything out of line, so he just frowned slightly He looked at Hong Qingzhi's back.

"Eunuch Li has worked so hard all the way, why don't you take a break in the army?"

After reaching out to accept the imperial decree, Hong Qing smiled gently and extended the invitation very politely.

"Thank you, my lord, for your love. It's just that this old servant has other important things to do, so I don't dare to delay, so I ask my lord, Haihan, to say goodbye, farewell."

Li Dequan obviously didn't intend to quarrel with Hongqing, nor did he want to give Hongqing a chance to find out the truth, so after explaining the situation, he led a group of followers and rode away in a hurry.

"Order the troops to speed up the march and arrive at Zhenyuan City before sunset!"

After getting along for so many years, Hongqing has long been aware of Li Dequan's prudence and caution, she will not care about his estrangement behavior, and she has never said much to keep him away. Weihan issued an order, and after a while, amidst the sound of horns, the [-] troops that had been stationed began to accelerate forward, rushing towards Zhenyuan City with smoke and dust billowing all the way...

Counting it, it has been more than a year since the Qing army recaptured Zhenyuan City. When the Junggar army retreated, they never destroyed the city. Now, after some repairs, Zhenyuan City has become an important town in southern Xinjiang. Li Minxing The base camp of the Ministry was placed in this city, and the original 10 people have increased to nearly [-] due to the implementation of the immigration policy. Said that it is already a leading big city, the streets and alleys are bustling with people, and there is already a faint atmosphere of a prosperous age. Hong Qing is very pleased about this, but he doesn't have the heart to experience it. After waiting for the long-lost excitement, he exchanged greetings with Jiuye, Li Minxing and others who came to greet him, and then arranged for the troops to garrison everywhere. As for himself, he stayed in the city guard mansion where Li Minxing was. Once settled down, he went to the study and meditated silently by himself.

What are you thinking?In fact, I didn't think about anything. The situation in the capital and even the reaction of Emperor Chengde had long been expected by Hong Qing, and the countermeasures were already in place. When she was determined to push Emperor Chengde to the throne, Hong Qing had already foreseen the day when father and son would fight each other. Even so, when the time came to see the real chapter, Hong Qing's mood was still somewhat obscure and depressed , there is a kind of urge to get drunk, but I just want to think about it, but I can't do it, probably because the current situation has reached the most dangerous edge, and I really can't tolerate the slightest mistake, he must Stay awake enough to deal with such extremely complicated situations.

"My lord, Master Ninth is here and says he wants to see you."

Just when Hong Qing closed her eyes and meditated, there was a sound of footsteps, Ding Song had strode out from behind the screen, rushed to Hong Qing, and reported in a low voice.

"Well, let him come in."

Hearing that Master Jiu was visiting, Hong Qing's eyes opened, but she didn't have the slightest intention of getting up to greet her, she just let out a blank expression.

"twitter!"

Since Hong Qing had some orders, Ding Song dared not neglect to go, and respectfully agreed, turned around, and then left the study room. After a short while, he had already turned around from the outside, accompanied by Master Jiu, who was wearing a green coat and a small hat. return.

"Ninth Uncle is here, my nephew is too far away to welcome me, I'm so rude."

Even though he never went to Yuanyuan to meet him, Hong Qing still got up after Jiu Ye entered the study, and very politely saluted Jiu Ye, and greeted him warmly.

"Hehe, my nephew has worked hard all the way on the expedition. It's so disturbing to come here for my uncle, Haihan, Haihan."

Although Jiuye said that he was going out with the army this time, in fact, there was nothing he could do in the affairs of the army. When Qinghai was pacified earlier, he was able to wander around with the army, but after the pacification of southern Xinjiang, he So he was thrown in Zhenyuan City, even though he had the title of Prince, but no one paid attention to him, he could only be a idler, but this place beyond the Great Wall was very poor, no matter how rich he was, there was no good food available, poor Jiu Ye He was originally a fat man like a Bodhisattva. After staying for more than a year, he lost a lot of weight. However, his energy and spirit didn't seem to be bad. When he saw Hong Qing's face, his old face immediately turned into a smile. a chrysanthemum.

"Uncle Jiu is polite, please sit down, Ding Song, and have some tea."

Hong Qing smiled and didn't say much, but waved her hand and gave up her seat very politely.

"Uncle Wei heard that the Holy Majesty has issued an order to give you the post of Admiral of Sichuan, brother Qing, ha ha, I wonder if this is true?"

Ding Song led several guards to serve the freshly brewed fragrant tea, and then they all exited the study. Upon seeing this, Master Jiu did not remain silent any longer, and bowed his hands to Hong Qing with a smile, tentatively Asked a question.

"Well, so that Uncle Jiu can know that there is indeed such a decree."

This time Emperor Chengde issued a clear edict, even though it had just been conveyed to Hong Qing, given the keen eyes and ears of Master Jiu, it is not surprising to know this matter, and Hong Qing would not have anything to do with it He didn't intend to hide his surprise, and gave a positive answer calmly.

"Ha, it's true that you dare to feel this way, this is a great special encounter, tsk tsk, I'm afraid there is only a good nephew in the world, it's really enviable, but then again, With the merits made by my nephew this time, it is the only one in the world, and it is not surprising that I can get this special encounter."

Master Jiu's acting skills have always been good, even though he had already learned about the content of the edict from a secret channel before the edict was announced, but now, acting surprised and amazed, it really looks like That's what happened.

"Uncle Nine is highly praised. The great victory of this Western Expedition depends entirely on the mighty kindness of Emperor Ama Hong. There are soldiers from all three armies under his command. My little nephew has only put in a little effort, so I really don't deserve Uncle Nine's such absurd praise."

When it comes to acting skills, Hong Qing will only be above Jiu Ye, and will never be below him. Since Jiu Ye wants to show off his acting skills, Hong Qing is happy to play a rivalry with Qi Haosheng, and will not ask Jiu Ye The purpose of the Lord's visit was just nonsense in a very humble manner.

"Hehe, my nephew is the most admired by my uncle. He has made great contributions to the community, but he never takes credit for it. It's amazing, it's amazing, ah, it's really ashamed to be an uncle. It’s because I couldn’t help Brother Qing at all, I’m ashamed, alas, no, the gang of dogs below complained in private, saying that they went to the front of the army and didn’t get involved in anything, even though Eating the wind and sand, I was blind for a while, looking at what I said, my uncle feels uncomfortable, alas..."

Master Jiu obviously didn't come to chat with Hong Qing, no, first he gave Hong Qing a few words of praise with his thumbs up, and then changed the topic, and he sighed and sighed. It's like a big grievance...
