The Biography of Concubine Wen Xi in Qing Palace

Chapter 603

The emperor was furious when he heard the words, and declared the decree to immediately execute Yuqian Fanzi, who was ordered to deliver the decree in the past. He wanted to punish Alani severely, but after the courtiers persuaded him, he changed it to a four-level call.

This unexpected battle set back the Qing army and greatly boosted the morale of the Galdan army.

After discussing with the courtiers for nearly ten consecutive days, on the fifth day of the eighth month, the emperor emphasized that all armies should not fight Galdan before reunification, and declared: "The soldiers are advancing one after another, and I will also conquer myself. Please don't fight with me. When the army of the road reaches the same level, don't be rude."

On the sixth day of the eighth month, Emperor Kangxi announced the imperial conquest, with the eldest brother of the emperor, Prince Yu Fuquan as the general of Fuyuan, and the eldest son of the emperor Yinti as the deputy general, and went north from Gubeikou. , Xinjun Wang Eza was the deputy general, and he went out of Xifengkou.The other troops included the remaining Qing troops from the Alani Department, the Qing troops from Horqin, and the Qing troops from Shengjing and Jilin.

Accompanying them on the expedition, in addition to the originally agreed internal ministers Tong Guogang and Tong Guowei, there are also Suo'etu, Nalan Mingzhu and other important court officials.It is enough to show that the emperor attaches great importance to the war.

On August [-], Prince Yu Fuquan led the main force of the Qing army to set off from the capital.Before launching his army against Galdan, the emperor wrote a special poem to express his confidence in the battle against Galdan.

The poem said: "Get the remnants of Ugly and Ning, and make preparations for this trip. According to the order of the Anjun Army, the Hengli Kaishu was completed. The fireworks are in the corners, and the cattle and sheep are filled with plowing. The wilderness is one, and the return is comforted."

Later on August [-]th, the imperial conquest will be held in person, and he will arrive at the front line with Prince Yu.

Seven days before leaving, countless courtiers still advised the emperor to think twice, the risk of personal conquest is extremely high, so don't act rashly.

The emperor read too many papers and was quite annoyed, he leaned over the desk and said angrily: "Are they getting old in front of me?"

Zhuo Lan, who was serving from the side, patted the emperor's chest to calm him down, and then comforted him softly: "Your Majesty, why are they so noisy? It must be more courageous than them. According to the concubines, the more they look at the emperor, the more the emperor wants to show them a look, so as to stop the old minister's mouth."

Zhuo Lan's words reached the heart of the emperor, the emperor let out a long sigh of relief, and forced a smile: "It means that you and the concubine can have a few words with me."

Zhuo Lan smiled, and waited for the emperor to take a sip of homemade plum soup: "Plums are all freshly picked, and eating them in midsummer is the best way to cool off the heat. If the emperor likes it, can my concubine bring it to you every day?"

The emperor entered sweetly, and grabbed Zhuo Lan's waist: "I will stay in Qianqing Palace tonight, don't leave."

In the early morning of the second day, Zhuo Lan waited on the emperor to change the court clothes, and then boarded the imperial sedan chair and headed for Yongshou Palace.

Along the way, she and Yuanyuan's master and servant were extremely cautious and rarely communicated.After entering the Yongshou Palace and closing the palace gate, I saw Yuanyuan slightly worried: "Miss added a lot of medicine to the plum soup, the servant is afraid."

Zhuo Lan smiled lightly: "What are you afraid of?" She took the crystal grapes on the table, peeled off the skin and put in two: "I have calculated the dose, and on August [-]th, the emperor will go on a personal expedition and wait until the battlefield Only his cold symptoms will come out. The sword has no eyes, and his sick body may be more dangerous than good."

"That's the case, but Miss's medicine is quite heavy. If you get sick before going out, wouldn't it be a waste of time?"

"Impossible." Zhuo Lan said firmly: "He attaches great importance to his body. He takes ginseng soup and tonic medicine every day, and his body is already strong. If the dosage is not increased, the cold syndrome will not show up at that time, then it will be in vain. We have planned for these days." As he spoke, he sat side by side holding his hands, and said: "I am not idle here, I have done enough, if there is any other movement, it will inevitably be noticed by the noble concubine .Now it's time for you to work harder."

Yuanyuan solemnly nodded, with infinite hatred in her eyes: "This is the master's thought all his life. The servant will definitely help the young lady and fulfill the master's wish, in order to repay the kindness of nurturing and protecting her in the past."

Ever since she heard the news that the emperor wanted to conquer in person, Wanyu's thoughts became confused.

If it wasn't for the tense battle, the emperor would never have been forced to make such a decision.

It has been more than three months since Shen Ye went to war, and there is no news of whether he is dead or alive, how can Wan Lai be at ease?
She was already worried about it, but the emperor's personal conquest made her extremely depressed.

Although she and the emperor are no longer in love with each other, but after all, she is a man who has been with the emperor for twenty years, how can there be any reason not to worry about it?
It was the night emperor who had finished his political affairs, and seemed to have a connection with Wanyu, so he summoned her to sleep with him.

When she came, the emperor was still studying tactics with the secondary map, and there were thousands of thoughts passing through his mind, wanting to persuade him, wanting to keep him, wanting him to think twice.

This is the thought in her heart, but she knows that this is not what the emperor wants to hear at this moment.

What he needs is nothing but a woman's unhesitating support and trust without saying a word.

It has always been so.

Such thoughts persisted for a moment, and soon returned to tranquility.

Wannai walked to the side of the emperor, closed the booklet in front of her lightly with her hands, and rubbed her temples behind her back: "I still have to look at the candles in the palace when they are dim like this, it hurts my eyes carefully. After a busy day, I will have to do it soon." You have to take care of yourself when you go out to fight, don’t you?”

The emperor turned around, gently pinched Wanyu's chin with his right hand, and lightly kissed her lips.

After the kiss, he narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at her with a smile: "I know that you are worried about my safety in your heart, and you persuaded me to give up the idea of ​​personally conscripting, but you dare not speak, do you?"

Wan Lai's breathing was slightly rapid, and she nodded reluctantly in response.

Seeing her so distressed, the emperor held her in his arms and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I promise you that I will protect you, and I will never let anything happen to me. But remember what I often say to you, With me here, you can rest assured. Now I can change my words. In my heart, I am also afraid of personal conquest. After all, swords and swords have no words, and life and death are ignored. No matter how afraid I am, as long as I think of you and Wan'er Laughing, I have full confidence and feel at ease."

Wan Yu rested her chin on the emperor's shoulder blades, feeling slightly tempted for a moment.

But soon, he woke up.

She knew that the emperor didn't just say this to her.

Tong Linlan said it, Xiuyan said it, Yu Wen said it, Rou Jia said it, and even Zhuo Lan said it.

The current her is already unable to tell which of the man's words are true and which are false.How credible is the infinite love for her?Even if it is credible, how long can it last?

She asked herself inwardly, speechless.

But she still hopes for his well-being, even though the relationship between husband and wife has gradually become estranged with the passage of time, he is still the father of her child after all.

"Your majesty, my concubine please remember what you said today, and you must come back unharmed and stand in front of my concubine intact."

The emperor hugged her even tighter, closed his eyes and smiled happily: "Don't be afraid, I will definitely do what I promised you."
