The upgrade of Concubine Xian in Qing Dynasty

Chapter 218 Participating in Zarafin

When the sun was setting, Zarafin came back with the guards, and Hongli stood at the door of the tent to welcome her back. Inside the gift, there was a black bear, which was shot right between the eyebrows.

From the gate of the camp, many guards stared at the black bear. Bayan had to admit that Zarafin had a good mental quality.

"Ah, this black bear should be given to the emperor, uncle, and aunt?" Zarafin looked at the black bear being carried back, thinking that it would be impossible to leave it alone.

"Okay, wait a minute, I'll give you a bear's paw, don't you like it?" Hongli pinched Zarafin's small face and said.

Zarafin nodded, "Let's go, let's go together."

In the imperial tent, Kangxi heard that Zarafin brought the black bear to his tent, with a smile on his face, the empress dowager was beside him, and she nodded with a smile.

"This child Jiaojiao is filial, otherwise, she would have sent this black bear here." Concubine Tong Taigui said beside her.

"It was hunted with a musket?" Kangxi asked.

"Yes, the servant accompanied the little master himself, and the little master was killed with a single shot, but Lan Qiqigegegege has been watching from the side." Bayan didn't have any good ideas about Lan Qiqige, and actually hid in the dark.

If they hadn't been cautious, Lan Qiqige would definitely have shot in the dark.

"Did Lan Qiqige do anything?" Kangxi asked.

"The slave has been protected by the guards, so the other party has not done anything." Bayan replied truthfully.

"Emiang, let's keep a bear paw, give Hongli and Jiaojiao a front paw, and give the rest to the fourth child. Jiaojiao's method is good, and can deter these people." Kangxi was very satisfied.

Hongli and Zarafen were sitting in the imperial tent, someone reported Lan Qiqige's matter in advance, and Yongzheng's face became gloomy.

Lan Qiqige has been observing secretly, and discovered the power of the musket. Zarafin is only a child, and he can have such thoughts.

"Khan Ama, what does the Zuoyi Prince tribe want to do?" Hongli asked suspiciously.

Every year, the tribe of Prince Zuoyi would make a fuss, often contracting many disasters, asking for silver taels from the household department, and coming to the grassland. The year has been smooth and rainy, and there is nothing like what he reported.

"It should be because you want to expand your power. You didn't find out. Since you came here, what have you seen the most?" Yongzheng looked at Hongli and said, "Jiaojiao, what did you find when you went out this time?"

Yongzheng often cultivated the observation skills of the two children. Zarafin tilted his head and thought carefully about the hunting.

"Baoyin has a great appeal in Gege, and Lan Qiqige seems to be out of the group, but she has the most guards with her, and the most important thing is that among those guards, many of them use muskets. Zarafin clapped his hands together: "It's definitely a musket, there's no doubt about that."

Musket? !
A small discovery made Yongzheng and Hongli look at each other. Prince Zuoyi was very cautious and rarely used this part of his ability.

"How many guns are there?" Yongzheng looked at Zarafin and asked.

"Jiaojiao, think about it carefully." Hongli looked at Zarafin and said.

"There should be nearly 50 of them," Zarafin said.

After the words fell, Yongzheng immediately became alert. A county king can protect his daughter with a complete musket team, not to mention being the most favored. He felt that there must be another force in the hands of the Khalkha county king.

Yongzheng took a look at Su Peisheng and asked him to tell the person at the sticky pole to investigate thoroughly.

"Jiaojiao, stay in the tent obediently these few days, don't run around, Lan Qiqige should have something to do." The queen said directly.

"Yes!" Zarafin nodded.

After dinner, Hongli took Zarafin back to the tent together, and Zarafin began to talk to Hongli about hunting, not only muskets, she found that in Lan Qiqige's team, there was another one who could control animal people.

"Beast tamer?" Hongli looked at Jiaojiao and asked.

"Yes, it's the animal trainer, or maybe he hid himself in the team on purpose. He probably wanted to see if anyone in the royal family could tame wolves." Hongli said directly.

Zarafin sat aside blankly, watching Hongli bring Bayan in, and asked about the hunting.

After breakfast the next day, the camp found it strange that Zarafin had hunted a black bear. He was so capable at such a young age.

Many guards in Mongolia worship the supremacy of force. When hunting, they hunted high-risk prey such as bears, and they were considered hunting masters.

The Mongolian leaders all believed that Zarafin only used muskets to hunt, and had forgotten the bows and arrows of their ancestors early on. They actually found some censors who could be bought, hoping to play in front of the emperor and Long live God.

On Yinshi, the fifth day of the lunar new year, Yinzhen called out, and even the Mongolian leaders all changed into court clothes, and went to court to participate in politics.

The censor came out and Zarafin hunted with a musket. The censor stood in the middle and made an impassioned statement. Narbu and his son stood calmly in the team and did not intercede for Zarafin.

Anari felt very strange when he found this situation. It is said that Narbu loved Zarafin the most, and he didn't defend her. Anari became worried that they might fall into Yongzheng's trap.

In the camp, many people were discussing and doing things, but they didn't stop for a few days. Zarafin was restrained by Hongli, and he didn't go out after returning from that day.

Hongli stood in the prince's team, firmly remembering a few censors who participated in the performance of Zarafen.

The Mongolian leaders probably bought these people with gold and silver. The censors saw the immediate benefits and hoped to use this opportunity to show it in front of Yongzheng.

"Okay." Yongzheng sneered, "You can only hunt with bows and arrows?"

"The slave thinks, whether the hunting follows the ancestral system or not, and if muskets are really used, is it too much?" E Yushi bowed his hands and saluted.

"E Yushi, I have some disagreements. Muskets are the latest weapons, and hunting is to verify the efficacy of new weapons." Hongli stood up and said in public. "Besides, Jiaojiao is young, and it's just a matter between Gege and Gege. How did you get on the line?"

After the words fell, E Yushi's heart skipped a beat. Hongli was obviously warning him that if he dared to play Zarafen again, his future would definitely not be good.

E Yushi can be regarded as a newcomer to watch the ceremony, and he is a noble son from a poor family. He hopes to occupy a place in the Yushi Academy. They cannot compare with the official family. Their own official positions are very low. For the official family, there is no place to live In his eyes, in order to seek refuge with powerful ministers, he could only charge forward.
