"Waiter, you've come at the right time." Li Shiyao handed the sign to the military plane, Ah Gui had just received a group of officials serving tea to send guests, the two had been friends for many years, there was no greeting when they met, and the first sentence was: "Here are a few folding clips, I have asked them to pick them out, all of them are the situation of the White Lotus Sect's change, you first look at it." The emperor may not be able to summon you this morning, except for the things in office, these things are also to be asked when you see you, and you must have a number in your heart. ”
Li Shiyao took a stack of thick folding sheets and gently placed them on the Kang table, after all, he refused to be rude, and he hit a thousand children on the spot to please an, and said: "The middle hall is auspicious!" "When looking at Ah Gui, the tone is still very good, but it looks a lot old, the original Fangzheng Yingyi's face is elongated than before, less than fifty years old, the eyelids have been relaxed, the beard is also covered with variegated color, a pair of triangular eyes are so dark that they can't see the bottom, only in gu pan when the essence is dazzling, hanging frost-like thick eyebrows are also gray, pressed low, and the eye circles covered with fish scales are also a little dark - this is evidence that middle-aged people are tired and overworked. Li Shiyao smiled indignantly: "Almost every day there are letters and official affairs, but it is far away from the Cloud Mountain - the last time I went to Qinghai in the Beijing Zhongtang, we haven't seen each other for seven years, the back of the Zhongtang is a bit hunched, it looks old, but the spirit goes, and the depth is so deep that people are disturbed." ”
"You're still strong, so tough and exposed." Ah Guiguan smiled: "The fold in front of me has already been read." Hong Renhui was imprisoned, Li Guanghua was imprisoned, and Li Yongbiao, the superintendent of Guangdong Customs, stripped off his official robe and put it on, and when the camp prisoners were ten ridges of staff flowed with three thousand miles. A knife slashed down Liu Ya's plaque and the blood flowed all over the ground, and under the sudden anger, Xu's chestnuts changed color, and one of the servants' water and fire sticks fell to the ground - but are there? Li Shiyao smiled and said, "Gui Zhongtang has revealed his true colors of that year." These words are like the drum words in the teahouse saying "Liu Tongxun's Private Visit to Jining Province". Ah Gui pointed to the people waiting outside the window to meet him, raised his pen and said, "You can look at it first." This year, the frost fell early, winter came early, several disasters were suffered, more than forty provinces wanted relief, winter grain, spring wheat to plant grain, as well as winter clothes, and the replacement of the army's clothes outside the mouth -- they waited for my approval to go to the household department to handle it. Let's talk about it later. "Say it and write a book.
Li Shiyao nodded and said yes, leaning on the kang, leaning against the window to look at the clips. Some of these clips were directly related to the song chapter, and some were only additionally explained the local situation, so that when the military aircraft minister read it, he understood the original meaning of the song chapter, there were dozens of large and small pieces, tens of thousands of words long, only a few crosses in short, no head and no brain, and it was very messy. However, Li Shiyao was very methodical, first picking out the provinces in the clips, but the five provinces of Sichuan, Chuzhou, Shaanxi, Gansu and Yu accounted for about 80%, the rest of the zhili, Shandong, and Fujian accounted for more than 10%, and the rest were sporadic incidents. In this way, there are already numbers in mind. Then he picked out the provincial copywriting, and then picked out the important ones from the topics. The clip is not complicated to say, so the long writing must be urgent, or the military aircraft department approves and orders it to be detailed, and then pick it out. About a bag of cigarette kung fu, the clip has been divided into three categories of urgent purpose, slow purpose and covenant purpose, Thaksin Zi picked up one piece, and looked at it, it is the clip text of Xu Ji, the inspector of Henan:
According to Zhaluyi County, there are mixed yuan cults, and the mixed yuan and the collected yuan, wuwei, and the White Lotus sect are all synonymous and different names. According to Rongzhu's interrogation of Fan Mingde, thirty-seven people were offered to enter and leave the sect, and all the people of Anhui County, which are adjacent to Luyi, Ding Hongqi and Zhang Juye were captured, and the rest of the gangs were still arrested by each other. According to Pei Zongxi's newspaper, Ding Hongqi and Zhang Ju were interviewed and arrested, and a copy of the scripture was found, which is now accompanied by a star reading. In the copy of the scriptures, there are contradictory words such as "change Qiankun, change the world, (anti-chaos year) the year of the last catastrophe", which is the same as the fabricated words of Wang Lun of Shandong and others, and is comparable to an unusual cult... He let go of this fold, and the Shandong Wang Lun cult and Gansu Su Forty-three and Wang Fulin gathered a crowd to plot a rebellion, and Taiwan's Lin Shuangwen all echoed and hooked up with each other, collectively called the "Heavenly Reason Sect", but in fact, they still did not fall within the scope of the White Lotus Sect. But he had never been involved in handling such cases, contrary to the teachings, how to echo the contact, and teach the people in the teachings to follow the rules, all of them were full of mud, because they turned the pages of Shandong, but there was no such scroll, only a bagua map of the Nine Palaces attached to it, on the one hand, it was written "Thirty-six will come to the mortal world", and on the other hand, it was written "Twenty-eight Su Linfanshi", and the words "The last year of the disaster, the knife is also present" were soaked in water, and the handwriting was blurred. Looking at it again, there is a letter of oath from Hu Shenghai and others to worship the alliance, with the words "Copy the Red Cloth of Liu Meizhan", which reads:
Since ancient times, loyalty and righteousness have not been too close to the Saint Emperor. Since the beginning of the taoyuan, the brothers are no less than compatriots, they have no difficulty in caring for each other's diseases and helping each other, and their names are geng geng, and they have not given up to this day. It seems to be waiting for the emperor to be loyal, stealing the name of the party, and the god of the five grains of the land is Han Peng! Sun Moon Starlight Fortune Star Emperor Han Fu, Jade Emperor God Si Order Five Emperor Zheng Ri, Guanyin Buddha Wu Thunder God General Li Changguo Four Great Generals, Heavenly God Dan Second Sword God General Xuantian God Fude Dragon God Guan Tiancheng, Li Sedi, Fang Dahong, Zhang Yuantong, Lin Yongzhao Five Big Brothers... Since the alliance, brotherhood is the same flesh and blood... I did not dare to spit out profane sentences, did not dare to suppress the small with a big pressure, did not dare to deceive my brother's property, commit adultery and righteousness, and did not dare to shrink back from the situation... Then there are the gods descending on the rich and the noble, and below are several couplets:
Carrying a sword to swim in my door holding a wooden stick to beat the hero Hao Jie Ding Qiankun Wanli Jiangshan a round of fighting for the sky to seize the country a skill leaked under the military machine sword forgot to flutter and shake without a trace Of all things waited to watch the sun and red
...... What else is "one worships the alliance heart Jade Baoming, the second worships the vow to attract the gods of heaven, the third worships the society is loyal and righteous, and the four worships deliver a family of people from all over the world..." A total of eight worships, and the end is "eight worships after the day to call the emperor and seal the heavens".
He sat here and watched intently, and Ah Gui had already assigned his children to receive several large groups of senior officers, and also called the military arsenal secretary tangguan, saying that it was cold in the morning in The cold weather in The poor people in Shandong, Shandong, And Huaibei, Henan, had no clothes to spend the winter, and the zhangjiakou camp army was changed in uniform, and there was no need to sell it on the spot, and it was transferred to the inland ministry for disaster relief. The Arsenal Division complained bitterly, saying that the clothes changed by the soldiers could only be used to make paper bubble pulp, and that it was a rule of the year that the soldiers had been sold to fight tooth sacrifices, and there were complaints in the army.
"Do you know love soldiers?" Ah Gui frowned and said, "Zhangjiakou all said that the old clothes were scattered to the poor on the spot, and the soldiers in Kabul said that they had surrendered the army!" I myself am a general, don't you know these little tricks? The household department has received it - by the local garrison management belt generals directly with the household department, not through your military department - go! ”
The officer ate the hard nail, took the tea and sighed and retreated, Ah Gui turned his eyes to see Li Shuyao look at the clip and looked at it attentively, and smiled: "Rest. You have only just started, many things do not know the beginning and end, turn around and ask the criminal department to tell you about it. Li Shiyao vaguely agreed twice, only to understand that Ah Gui was talking to himself, put down the folding sheet, and smiled: "The reception is over?" I looked inside, only to hear the voices buzzing and the words being spoken. Say something, I didn't hear a word. Listening to your work, this time transferring me back to Beijing, intentionally let me go to the Punishment Department? ”
"What difference you have to assign makes it uncertain now." Saint Yi was still hesitating..." Ah Gui seemed to be overwhelmed, slowly shaking his body, closing his eyes to recuperate, stretching out his fingers to pinch the bridge of his nose and rubbing and pressing, breathing through a long breath while pranayama, he said: "There is no Han Shangshu in the Punishment Department, and The Manchu Shangshu Ying'a is actually a bubble door." All day in the Indian ending, running Guanglu Temple, Dali Temple, in addition to the autumn trial and prison duties, the thing to manage is to make money in the oil pot - he is the grandfather of The Third Master's Mansion! Intimate and intimate coaters have children. Although the third master of Hongshi is not authentic, after all, he is the emperor's brother, and he has been dead for many years, orphans and widows, there is no big mistake, the emperor can't bear to make the widow sad, and then refuse to damage his dignity. Only a capable Han staff can be used to take care of the affairs... These are actually important words that are difficult to know from the outside world, Li Shiyao listened intently, nodded and sighed: "Hongshi tried to plot against the emperor several times. This piece of the emperor's heart... alas! Too kind... But then again, among the flag people today, there are very few people who can really do things. I have suggested several times to rectify the flag business, and the folding is left in the middle. Is there really no way to rectify it? ”
"There is no way to straighten it out..." Ah Gui sighed a long time, his face seemed to be happy and sad, and with unquestionable helplessness, he said: "Saint Ancestor Heavenly Wisdom and Wisdom Emperor, Emperor Sejong is so determined and resolute!" How many times did you make a decision to rectify, but what was the result? The whole time there is a big thing, the whole time back is even more corrupt! As soon as the flag people fall into the grass, they are destined to have an imperial grain, who is willing to study hard to learn martial arts? It is easy to be promoted when an official is easy, and it has become a rule to reward heavy and punish light, who is willing to really do things for the strength of the country? ...... Like a rotten piece of meat, stinky fish and rotten shrimp, can it be rectified into fresh meat? Not only is the flag business, but also the official rule, you are the governor of the two Guangdong outside, fresher than me, can you still rectify? alas...... These things are better than not thinking about them, and the more you think about them, the worse your heart will be, and the more alarming you will be. Just close your eyes to sleep, wake up and do things, and do your best to maintain it..." He said, tears oozing from the corners of his eyes.
He was so worried about the state, Li Shiyao was ashamed and moved, and was busy exhorting: "In the Dream of the Red Chamber, it is said that 'the fire cooking oil and flowers are cotton', which is extremely difficult to continue, and has happened throughout the ages. The flag people are corrupt and rotten, and at best there are more than a million people, but the officials can still do things for me. Hold on to this end, and there will be no great chaos. "I have also thought about what you said, but the officials really dare not slacken their efforts." Ah Gui has returned to calm. He smiled and said, "I'm talking about hidden worries, which are corrupt at the root." There is also a sentence in "Dream of the Red Chamber" that 'the worm with a hundred feet is dead but not stiff', and when the outside child is still burning at its peak, it is precisely because things are still possible that the emperor has doubled his diligence in government affairs and must be unremitting, you see, Yin Jishan has been exhausted. The last time I saw him, I didn't recognize me until half a day. Fu Heng is usually on the dynasty, the corridors are staggering, this time the illness in Burma, it seems difficult... It was me, the one you knew best back then, who could hold three hundred hard bows and fifty pounds of stone locks to play with dripping and turning, is this what it looks like now? Seeing that it's your turn again..."
"What happened to the sixth master's illness?" Li Shiyao asked. His initial trajectory relied on Fu Heng, all the way to the blue, among them, Fu Heng Aoyuan was not without strength, his body Li Shiyao was naturally concerned about the norm, leaning over and asking: "All the way to listen to the official gossip." Some said it was just malaria, some said plague, said passing through Huguang, LeMin specially asked Ye Tianshi to see it, saying that there was no obstacle and that there were bad ones. You know that Fu Gong treated me very kindly, and I was not happy all the way, just because I was afraid of seeing the sixth master seriously ill..." He lowered his head and sighed.
Ah Gui squinted his eyes and sat silently, as if considering how to answer. For a long time, he sighed and said, "Regardless of morality, talent, capital, and hope, in matters, public loyalty and benevolence, and prudence in the big festival and small sections, no one in this dynasty can compare, that is, the previous generation of sages, compared to it is also difficult to match!" Man, the whole thing is not done, alas... He is jealous of creation..." This is actually to say it thoroughly, Fu Heng's illness is unpredictable! Li Shiyao's heart was flustered. He felt a pang of emptiness, and only then did he realize at this moment that he had been trusting and relying on this person all his life, and once he removed this main heart bone, there was some sense that the soul could not be autonomous! His face turned a little pale, and he murmured, "Even Ye Tianshi is tied up?" this...... Ah Gui actually had a deeper relationship with Fu Heng, but he had long been in the deep city government cultivated by the central machine center, paying attention to "everything is not exciting", seeing Li Shiyao's lost appearance, comforting: "You, me, and jishan in the past, even Ji Yun, have been wandering around for half a lifetime, and have always relied on the sixth master, and Long Live Grandpa has flesh and blood with him to support the righteousness of the monarch, and he is really the top minister of our Qianlong Dynasty." Not only are you upset, everyone is the same. He was suffering from miasma, Ye Tianshi prescribed the medicine to use 'attack poison with poison', the amount under the arsenic was very heavy, and Banzai Ye and Fu Heng's family dissuaded them from using it... It's half a matter of half a person's life... He boiled well, his body was originally strong, and he slowly recuperated when he returned to Beijing, and maybe there was some turnaround..." He was an old and capable person, and his words were already tearful. When Li Shiyao was still about to speak, the eunuch at the door came in and said, "Gonggong Bu of the Yangxin Temple has come, and he has a will!" Ah Gui and Li Shiyao were both busy coming down from the kang, and they had already seen Bu Yi lift the curtain and come in.
"The emperor has a purpose." Bu Yi very habitually entered the house and stood still, and said to the two ministers who were standing on standby: "Fu Heng has arrived in Beijing, and the emperor will immediately send a car to Fu Mansion to see the disease." At the emperor's will, Ah Gui Li Shiyao could also visit Fu Heng. Admire this! ”
"Za!" The two replied in unison, "The slaves obey the order!" ”
Seeing that the two were still on their knees, Bu Yi busily hugged Ah Gui with a smile and said, "The master has ordered those who are exempt from etiquette, please let the masters go over." Then he smiled at Li Shiyao and said, "I haven't seen Li Ye for many years, and I should still give you an old invitation..." He said that he was going to beat Qian'er with his hands and feet. Li Shiyao was very familiar with him, and yiqian pulled up and smiled: "You castrated dog, I don't know if you think of me or my little host!" ------------------------------------------------------ Bu Yi seemed to be a little afraid of Ah Gui, did not dare to laugh wildly, and timidly glanced at Ah Gui and said, "Now he is still the head of Wang Badi, but he is in the Yuanmingyuan, and I am waiting in the inner city." Although adults are joking, small ones can't afford it! Ah Gui had already changed his clothes and said lightly, "You go back to pay your will." He and Li Shiyao came out together. At the gate of Xihua, Ah Guicai asked, "Did you come on horseback?" ”
"Yes." Li Shiyao suddenly felt that Ah Gui was different from a few years ago, his posture, demeanor, smile, and appearance had changed, and he was cold and difficult to get close to, because he saw the question, and said busily: "However, riding a horse to visit the sixth master is not suitable, I still ask them to prepare a car." Ah Gui smiled, "The family may not want to prepare a palanquin for you." Why be so angry, just sit in my car. Save time and time. "Say get in the car. Li Shiyao hesitated for a moment, and was busy carrying Ah Gui's four people, while squeezing to sit down opposite Ah Gui, laughing: "Now the outer Daotai has eight big cars, and you are such a big official still sitting on this!" What's the matter, as soon as I arrived in Beijing, it changed! Saying, I felt a movement, like a sliding car body has been slow, even the footsteps of the public opinion outside the car can not be heard, Li Shiyao wants to say something, look at Ah Gui's face. No words.
Fu Heng Mansion is in the area of Laoqihuamen in the east of the city, not far from the hutong deep in the flower, in fact, it is much closer to coming out of Donghuamen. But Donghua Gate is the door where Emperor Chonghua fled the country, it is not auspicious, the Manchus first entered the customs, do not care about this set, Kangxi Nian still has a sign in Donghua Gate, Yongzheng after the succession of Habits from Xihua Gate in and out. Donghua Gate opened early in the morning, and the live pigs and live sheep fresh vegetable charcoal purchased in the palace entered the palace from here - it has become the rule. But then, the palanquin went around the far side, almost half a turn more than half a turn of the Forbidden City. Seeing that Ah Gui did not say a word, silently looking at the gray and autumn streets outside the car window, the pedestrians who had avoided each other seemed to be thoughtful, and seemed to think of nothing, Li Shuyao endured for a long time and asked: "Jia Mugong, what are you thinking?" ”
"I was thinking..." Ah Gui's eyelids trembled slightly, and he realized from his contemplation, "Fu Heng was trapped in the old Guantun and it was so easy to wait for reinforcements, and he himself was sick like this, this battle could not be fought, it was time to receive it when he saw it was good..."
"Emperor, what does the emperor think?" I met in Guangdong the people who went to the Six Masters Army to procure medicines, the battle was too difficult, the sky was covered with old trees, the forest was full of green snakes and miasmas, mosquitoes midges and scorpions biting... I don't know how many people died, after all, there were not many casualties in fighting with the Burmese soldiers... However, this matter concerns the national system, and it can only be fought, and the emperor may not be willing to give up and make peace. ”
"Oh, you're right. However, Myanmar is different from Mongolia and Xinjiang, and even if Myanmar is defeated, it is still the same as Korea, Annam, Japan, and Ryukyu, and it is difficult to unify the law. Now that the King of Burma has repaired his form, confessing his sins and asking for peace, it is the time to talk about peace. I was afraid that the emperor's son would blindly destroy this pilgrimage and then increase the number of troops and send generals. If you can't win quickly, this pot of raw rice will be difficult to eat..."
"You correspond with the sixth master, what does he mean?"
"The sixth master is the commander-in-chief of the army, and he is not suitable for the lord to make peace."
"What about the Emperor?"
"The emperor is still between the two. Some villains do not understand politics and military affairs, but just blindly meet each other, throw themselves into the favor of the king, and instigate the addition of troops to increase the number of generals to fight... The sixth master is seriously ill this time, and if he is not cured, he will also fight against his heart..." Ah Gui breathed heavily, as if there was an inexhaustible melancholy in his heart, and xu xu said: "So... Hard! ”
At this time, Li Shiyao also fell into contemplation. He has been sealing the territory all the time, and he has been punished with endless money and grain all day long, and he has been appointed and dismissed by subordinate officials from local public order, so he is so busy that he has only now weighed out what is called "major state affairs" and what is "important military and political affairs"; he has just arrived at the "Heavenly Palace Que", and he already feels that "there is no cold in the heights"... Thinking in his heart, he tempted him and said, "Emperor Shengming, far-sighted." As far as I know, there are no villains in the Military Aircraft Department. As for the three courtyards and six departments, the small eunuchs, there is no one who can influence the holy bow, and Jia Mugong does not have to worry so much. ”
"I was about to remind you." Ah Gui rose and fell slightly with the car, frowned and said leisurely: "The country has a system, and the minister has a body." To interact with people like eunuchs, we must be measured and obedient. ”
Li Shiyao blushed.
"You come to Beijing occasionally while you are abroad, and I can't say this." Ah Gui calmed him and said, "The eunuch is a demon who has changed his nature. When I say that etiquette is not contradictory, I mean to use 'etiquette' to suppress his sexuality. The dead Han died and tang died, that is, Zhao Kuangyin's 'candle sound axe shadow', died unclear, without the help of eunuchs, is it? - This is Yin Jian! Eunuch sex yin, real villain. You joke with him. He felt that he could be close to cheating, and he didn't go up and down with you, and he didn't know how big a thing he had after a long time! This is a big taboo in the military aircraft department..."
He didn't finish speaking, Li Shiyao already understood that he was wrong, he was a very clever and alert person, and immediately took a look back and ,—— he was a prince of the party outside, he could laugh at will, here on the side of Jiuding, there was only one ruler for audio-visual speech: Li, thinking of last night and Hezhen's fighting spirit, he suddenly felt that it was very inappropriate, and he immediately felt uneasy. Rubbing his hands and groaning for a long time, he blushed and said, "Now is not the past, I really can't keep up with your footsteps, I am used to being outside casually, and I am deeply favored by the master, and I have given birth to an arrogant heart, Jia Mugong's reminder is deeply ashamed of himself, these years of not reading, even my heart is desolate and chaotic..." Because of the long and short will enter the Chongwen Gate.
"You underestimated this and Yan. To get along with him, in fact, to get along with eunuchs is a truth. Ah Gui said: "He is from my class, he has been following for two years, he only feels diligent and charming, he is a small intention, sometimes he is generous, the office people are good, and now he is more and more unable to see through." There was nothing wrong with him, and the officials were also the size, but he was either in the palace or the palace all day long, there were his shadows everywhere, everyone was saying good things about him, the household department and the Ministry of Internal Affairs said that it was his superior, and his official position was in Luan Yiwei, and he was promoted to a guard, and he was a salt turtle household (that is, a spider) who could not control anywhere! When we saw the emperor, one was to hand over the sign, and the other was to summon, who could enter the Yangxin Hall and enter the Tranquility House as soon as he lifted his feet... Ji Yun and I talked about him, and Ji Yun said that he was the emperor--" He suddenly felt that it was quite difficult to phrase, Ji Yun's original words were "lice in the crotch of the emperor's pants", but this word could not be quoted, and the words became "the imperial lice on the emperor's body, can not be caught." Li Shiyao smiled and admired it, but Ah Gui said, "It was the prince who asked me to recommend the selected bodyguard, and then promoted and observed, he is so good and popular, and there is nothing wrong with the messenger, it is difficult to take him away!" You and he are angry, probably also listened to these words, Jiangsu Inspector Lu Gongju is your confidant, he can't afford to pay taxes through the Chongwenmen tax, he went to Beijing alone, you borrowed this secret edict from the emperor to raise this breath for the gong, but yes? ”
Li Shiyao's eyes flickered, and he nodded, "Gongju, what a clean and upright person that is!" Ten thousand and two! He was sick in Wuchang, I went to see him, took my hand and just sighed, saying, 'When it is difficult to be a Qing official, when you see the emperor, you still have to pay 10,000 taels of tax and silver, and this world has changed, and you can't get it'..." "A piece of silver for a crime, a customs tariff for an official to enter Beijing, are all suggestions from Hezhen. Ah Gui laughed self-deprecatingly, "Corrupt officials who have paid silver for crimes are exempt from discussion, and Qing officials can't afford to pay taxes when they enter Beijing - it's really interesting!" I went to ask the emperor whose suggestion was Chen Chen, and the emperor said that it was his own idea, and that these two articles had ills and were to be banned, but there was no explicit purpose to ban them, in short, the villains were fearsome, and the villains were difficult to defend--" He also said that the palanquin had been gently landed on the ground, and he stopped his mouth. Li Shiyao was already shaken by what he heard, and he looked a little dizzy, and said with a pale face: "I don't know what the Holy Will is now." If it has not yet been decided, please ask Yoshiki to speak beautifully and let me go out to be the governor. ”
"It depends on the situation." Ah Gui raised his hand to signal him to get out of the car first, and said: "It is my suggestion that you stay in the military plane, the emperor has no intention of slacking off, and when it comes to beijing to see the situation, I can't say anything now." "Say goodbye to the two of them getting out of the car."
Li Shiyao got out of the car to look at the watch, and it was just after the hour of tatsu. After three years of coming here, Fu Mansion did not change much from the original. It is just that the original three sills of the inverted Xiamen were changed to five trees through the hall door according to the scale of the gongfu. At this moment, it is nearly the middle of winter, the red and thin green among the Wanmu Xiaosen, a change in Li Shuyao's mind of wanmu onion cage-shaped scenery, the evergreen vine leaves that are full of women's walls that are impermeable to the wind have become dark green, and the intermittently coiled artemisia vine roots are still vigorous and powerful, but the leaves have withered, or hidden or hidden in the honeysuckle vine, like the bulging tendons on the back of the old man's hand. The layered pomegranate and locust elm willow trees in the wall have almost completely fallen leaves, and the dense branches stretch like a purple mist into the distance, and from time to time there are flocks of sparrows, crows, storks and other birds flying up and down to feed. Although the great duke's palace is caged under the dark autumn sky, the dense forest of trees is lined with old juniper cedar and black cypress, it still looks azure and majestic. If on weekdays, Fu Heng mansion in front of this moment lively return? On the opposite side of the wall, the long embankment along the coast is full of cars, and the chief of the public opinion car is accompanied by a group of people waiting in the pavilion to meet the master who enters the palace, and the officials who are sent to the gate are dressed in purple waist and jade and the top of the glorious roof; the small door on the east side is the inner relatives who come to the house to meet the lady, and it is also the sound of laughter and greetings from the warblers. But at this moment, because the emperor wanted to drive here, all the idle people had long since retreated, sweeping a single blade of grass and leaves, which seemed particularly empty and open, and there were more than thirty eunuchs from the Ministry of Internal Affairs who came to the clean street to wait for the driver, as well as more than a hundred people in the Fu family, all standing by the stone lion in front of the door, and seeing that the two of them were far away from the Haizi Pavilion, there was already a family member who flew and seemed to run, and the two people did not move, and they were determined to wait for him to pass the word. When they came to look closely, they all recognized that it was Hu Jingge, the second housekeeper of the Fu Mansion.
"Gui Zhongtang and Li Ye have arrived!" Hu Jingge slowed down his pace as he approached, and then he ran a few steps to beat Qian'er and said, "Long live Grandpa, there is still half an hour to go." Prince He had already arrived, and there were also Zhaohui Military Gate and HighlandErnza Military Gate, all waiting in the East Study, and invited the two grandfathers to come and serve tea. ”
Ah Gui nodded, and gave Li Shunyao a moment of understanding, one after the other followed Hu Jingge into the palace, only to see that the palace gate, Yongdao, jiaomen, and various courtyards in the palace were all the pro-soldiers of the infantry commander Yamen Guanfang, the sabre fast boots did not squint and stand upright, Fu Fu was known as the military rule of the government, the family members also stood straight according to the direction of cambodia with crowns, all the way there was no bird quiet, a cough of phlegm did not smell, only to hear the sound of boots under the feet echoing on the corridor wall, but more silent. The two of them went straight north along the main entrance Yongdao, and when they passed the main hall of the Gongfu, Ah Gui noticed that there was a Qianlong Imperial Pen plaque hanging on the main hall, "The First Class Gongfu of the First Class", which was never opened on weekdays, and now all the partition doors were open, and it was more than a dozen Sula eunuchs guarding the gate - from the east side to the north, and then to the east, through a hedge, into the moon cave gate, they listened to the voice of the East Study, but it was the sound of the pro-Sanhong:
"I expected Ah Gui to come, go and see!"
Then the door slammed, a person flashed out of the waist, both of them were a shy, it turned out to be Hezhen again! Just in response to Ah Guifang's saying, "There is his shadow everywhere." Li Shiyao couldn't help but shudder. However, it seemed that nothing had happened to he, and he only smiled at the two of them, picked up the basket with one hand, and gave in with the other, saying: "Li Zhitai has also come--please, Wang Ye is inside!" Ah Gui's face was expressionless, "um" and Li Shuyao went back and forth into the room, when Li Waityao looked, sure enough, Zhaohui Hailancha was all there, Zhaohui was fatter than a few years ago, and a knife scar of more than two inches long was added to his cheeks, his hands were on his knees, and he sat solemnly like a tower, but Hailancha did not see the old, he was still a mound, a black fat round face, an uneasy life of drinking and sucking lips, and he also turned a grimace at the back of the two people. In the middle of the kang sat Hongzhi, who was more than fifty years old, but his face was full of smoke, his cheeks and eye sockets were loosely sunken, and in the warm and dry room, he was still wearing a mink sauce color batulu vest, and the python robe he was wearing seemed to carry a stove, and his thin body was leaning on the big pillow by the window, and the bulging sac looked a little ridiculous -- this was Qianlong's only brother, the "absurd prince" Known all over the world. Ah Gui saw that he only bowed twice, and Li Shiyao, because he had not seen him for a long time, had to bend down and perform a great gift.
"That's it, you show talent!" The two iron walnuts in Hongzhi's hand brushed and brushed, and smiled, "The eight-sided mighty wind of the Great General, and the people who can play with Himan, all call you confused--" He deflected his face and smiled at the crowd, "Swinging the musket team, carrying the king's command flag into the Chongwen Gate, have you heard of it?" You—" He faced Li Shuyao again, "This time when you enter Beijing, what good things are there to honor me?" Do I want to take it on? ”
Li Shiyao finally hit a thousand children before he got up and smiled: "The fifth master also looks in the mirror, thin enough to be a skeleton, and he still has to burn bubbles!" I brought my grandfather a few pounds of fine white fungus, as well as American ginseng to supplement his body. The French perfume and brandy also have a box. The smoke soil is from the East India Company, much better than the cloud soil, there is a intention to violate the fifth master's royal order not to bring, think about the fifth master's treatment of me - grandpa knows, this is an obstacle to the prohibition - the yamen was confiscated and stacked in the stables, I still brought some to the grandfather, and Ye Tianshi with the abstinence cream, I also got a few large bags, the grandfather used it. It is best to be able to take some vows, poor grandpa is so weak, the slave is also distressed!"
Even the opium was given with smoking cessation cream, Li Shiyao felt funny, and everyone laughed. Hiroshi yawned and smiled, "So it's really considerate of your fifth master!" It is difficult to buy old and thin with money, and people are expensive and suitable - your bullshit does not know how to dominate, withdraw from the wild, and the books you originally read are pulled out as shit! Hai Lancha smiled, "As Nu Caiyuan said, the fifth master is full of embroidery mouth, and our trumpet has a belly and a horse trip, waiting for the wind and snow moon that can't come to the grandfather." He Yan interjected at the side, "I have convinced the masters of these large armies who sent troops to release horses, Li Ye's musket team is going to go to the fire, and this will be the wandering soul of The Son and Yan don't know where to swing!" ”
Originally, this was an excellent reconciliation knot, Li Shiyao only needed to pay tribute to a joke, and the resentment in his stomach for a day was dissolved, but Li Shuyao was bright and open-minded on the outside, and the arrogance and self-conceit on the inside were innate problems in the fetus, and he only looked at Hezhen, but asked Zhaohui: "When did Old Zhaohui enter Beijing?" Now that the province of Jianya has been built, the soldiers are still leading the way? This knife scar was still scabed not long ago--you see people Inlanda, raised with red light, your face is like excessive wine, and you have a vain body. Zhaohui was a serious and cold person, he was familiar with Li Shiyao in Jinchuan, and he was used to joking, only in his chair, and smiled: "You don't have to worry about me, tell Wang Ye to look in the mirror, you also look in the mirror!" People say that the guangli woman has a high forehead and a deep eye socket and a black face, not good-looking, how can you not abandon it, make a skinny monkey-like, and also flaunt your might and go back to Beijing to see the master! ”
"When I was the admiral of the Taihu Lake, the fish, shrimp and rice were three times a day, and the natural red light was full. You are a disciple, and the widow has a disease and a widow is lustful, so you are dry. Highlander chuckled, "People say that Ye Tianshi doesn't understand worldly affairs and is a medical idiot, but he is not." I heard people say to show the fifth master's pulse, saying that the fifth master is 'double axe chopping wood, to quit drinking and color', when I looked up to see The side Fu Jin looked at him stunned, busy and prostrated, said 'Even if you can't quit color, you must quickly quit drinking' - Fifth Master, but there are? ”
Everyone laughed when they said it, but first they came to wait for the driver, and second, Fu Hengzheng was ill, and everyone came to visit, and they all laughed so much that they didn't dare to raise their voices. Hongzhi smiled and trembled, pointing at Highlander, "This monkey cub dares to make me happy--you ask Hezhen, he procures things for my house, and he sees Fujin at both ends, and he also knows Fujin, and asks him if he has such a thing?" He Yan felt that he was smiling, and his red face smiled, "Grandpa is that kind of person!" There's no such thing. ”
"Let's say a few words of laughter to the sixth master to rush the obscurity, but also to stop at the right time." The master is not in good health, the people in the mansion hear us Gao Le, what is the matter? Ah Gui listened to them talking and laughing, and he didn't like it in his heart for a long time, only to hinder Hong's face from perfunctory, at this moment he saw the opportunity and said, "All the way to the front station to send the rolling list of the military aircraft, Fu Liuye passed the Gaobeidian in a light condition." I actually have a lot to ask him about today. Here first of all, I will give the Fifth Master a courtesy to say that although you do not care about the military aircraft department, you are still the prime minister Wang Minister -- *** It is not appropriate to fight again, and it is a rare opportunity to take advantage of their repairs to apologize for their sins and be called subjects, and to allow them to make peace with a little. Hongzhi was addicted to smoking, yawning with snot and saliva, and he took three steps and two steps to the kang, waiting for him to burn two cigarette bubbles, which turned back to his spirit, because he said, "Why should you tell me about this?" Straight to the emperor is it. Ah Gui smiled and said, "I am worried that Fu Liuye will persuade the emperor to continue fighting, and I am also worried that if Liu Ye does not do it, it will irritate the master's determination to use troops to the end, so I will ask the fifth master to mediate." Long live Grandpa listens to the fifth master the most, you are accurate in your speech! Hongzhi's eyes lit up as he tapped his fingers on the Kang table and said, "Cheng! Fifth Master to help you! When he was about to speak, he heard the footsteps outside coming quickly, opened his eyes through the glass, and said to the crowd: "The holy driver is coming, Bu Yi told us,—— let's change our clothes quickly." ”
Bu Yi had already come in during the conversation, and sure enough, the Qianlong Imperial Driver had arrived, and in order to prevent Fu Heng from alarming him, all the bands and honor guards were not used, and they had already lowered their opinion at the gate of the palace, and ordered that the ministers did not have to take the car first, and went to the West Flower Hall Fu Heng's bed to see the ceremony again. At the moment, everyone hurriedly changed their clothes, all changed into chaoguan mending clothes, Hongzhi nodded his head, and in turn Ah Gui, Li Shiyao, Zhaohui, Hai Lancha, and Yan followed behind, and came out of the Moon Cave Gate. In front of the main hall, the great eunuch Yu Ba shame had already led thirty-six eunuchs into two rows, holding the middle chestnut, the cup, the silver bottle, the silver stove, and the replacement of the solemn and graceful style in the west hall, followed by more than a dozen grandmothers, Chenda, and the female attendants with heads in the palace who had recently come, Hongzhi was the first to beat the sleeve robe, and led everyone to kneel down the front steps of the main hall, prostrate, Li Shiyao peeked, only to see Qianlong wearing a camel satin cotton robe, with a stone blue satin small fur coat on the outside, and wearing a green felt satin table crown on his head. With a gold lead tie tied around the waist, the soap boots in the green satin cool stepped on the stone floor, it was already a person in his early sixties, the hair braids still looked oily black and shiny, a pair of black eyes under the bent eyebrows flashed with light, the extremely delicate beard resembled the book "one" The word "one" was slightly lowered, because it was not close, the wrinkles on the face could not be seen clearly, only this posture and walking appearance, at first glance how to look like a person who was not confused, thinking "The master is heroic and refreshing, how to cultivate it?" Hearing the footsteps recently, Li Shunyao hurriedly lowered his head, felt that the footsteps had reached the top of his head, stopped, and even his breathing became urgent, and he tried his best to hold his breath on his back, and gently touched the ground with his head.
"It's Li Shengyao!" Qianlong Guo stood on his feet, only two feet away from the top of Li Shuyao's head, and asked, "When did you arrive in Beijing?" ”
"Slave Li Shiyao —respectfully invite the master Saint Ann!" Li Shiyao breathed out a breath of air, and only a little loose on his body, he hurriedly replied loudly: "Originally calculating the distance, the fifteenth day of the month of La, I could get to Beijing, and I was in love with my heart to see my master as soon as possible, and I was in a hurry, and I arrived last night." ”
Qianlong nodded and said, "Shuo already knows." White ask you. After visiting Fu Heng, in the afternoon you handed the sign in. Li Shuyao Fang repeatedly prostrated his head and said yes, and Qianlong said to the crowd: "Hongzhi and Ah Gui got up to accompany Fu Heng first." A few of you went into the room and waited. Fukang Ann Fu Long An, take you to see your father. ”
Ah Gui and the two stood up, and it was only then that it was Fu Heng's sons Fu Long'an and Fu Kang'an who took over the guidance. Fu Long'an is the Princess of Qianlong and Jia and Gu Erzhuo, bingbu Shangshu. Fu Kang'an and Ah Gui had a more personal relationship, and were currently the general of Jinchuan Dingbian, who was a famous "Xiao Zhou Lang" in the government and was able to write poetry and was extremely good at martial arts. Standing up, he still looks like a jade figure, and his eyes are like crown jade. He rushed back to the capital, first to serve his father's illness, and secondly, Ah Gui wanted to personally lead the army to the west, and asked him to follow the military affairs of the military counselor. At this moment, it was not convenient for them to see the ceremony and speak, only nodding their heads and understanding, and followed his brother to the lower part of Fu Heng in the West Flower Hall. Ji Yun, the minister of military aircraft, was specially accompanying Fu Heng and was already guarding the ranks.
"The medicinal incense is too heavy." Qianlong frowned when he entered the hospital. Looking at several tai doctors kneeling under the porch, he said, "The medicinal incense is also medicine, and when mixed with the main medicine, there will be no time for fire." And it's also mixed with sandalwood. He looked forward to it, and when he saw Fu Heng's wife Tang'er kneeling inside the door, expecting that the sandalwood was what she had burned to worship the Buddha, he stopped talking about it, stepped into the door, and said with a sigh of relief: "Tang'er, don't kneel." Look at you, you're so haggard... The ministry here is accomplished by the sons. Good villains also pay attention to themselves, if you fall ill again, how can Fu Heng be at ease with healing? Go—rest in the bookstore, and see Fu Heng receive you. ”
Tang Er leaned down to listen, not knowing whether he was excited or moved, tears were already gushing out of his eyes, his body was trembling and sobbing, his gray hair was trembling, and he only cried and said, "Slave Obey... Qianlong then entered the back room, the Fulongan brothers pulled up the tent curtain on the bed and knelt on the ground, Fu Heng was already awake and his eyes were shining, but he was so weak that he didn't have a little strength, when he saw Qianlong leaning over to look at himself, he also searched for Qianlong with his eyes, and stared closely, as if he was afraid that Qianlong would disappear in the blink of an eye, staring at it with some confusion, for a long time, large drops of tears bursting out of his cheeks like broken beads, and murmured:
"Master, master... Slaves can't wait for you... Slaves are useless, even gifts cannot be given to the master, and they can't speak out of breath... alas...... I didn't expect that Fu Heng also had today..."
Qianlong's heart was sour and hot, arching and moving, and his eyes were already full of tears. He gazed with infinite pity at the dying Fu Heng, a Manchurian man of the heroic first generation, because he was the younger brother of Empress Fucha, he had chosen the Qianqing gate guards since he was a child, and he followed him day and night, and in the year of the weak crown, he chose the Minister of Scattered Rank to go out to the Foreign Office to inspect the Great Lake Water Division to rectify the army, suppress the thieves in Jiangxi Mountain, attack the Black Cha Mountain in Shanxi, capture the White Lotus Sect in one fell swoop, in order to recruit the great general to go to Jinchuan, forcing a generation of heroic sha Luoben to tie himself up and submit to the crime, presiding over the military aircraft department for twenty-three years, civil administration, river affairs, military affairs, money and grain, and ming punishment... ... Wherever things are complicated and huge, there is this Fu Heng who has a strong response, and is sincere and courteous to others, polite and decent, and everyone's mind can not do anything, and now at the end of the road, it has become such a situation! ——
