After Ling Ruo finished speaking, Yinzhen put down the ink pen in his hand and frowned: "So, Yunli's situation is still very dangerous?"
Ling Ruo nodded helplessly and said: "According to Dr. Xu, as long as Prince Guo doesn't wake up, he will still be in danger. Even if he wakes up, there may be other problems."
"So, at least for a short period of time, Yunli will not be able to lead troops." Yinzhen stood up and said with some frustration: "It was not easy to push Jungar to this point, and he saw that he could even uproot this cancer.
However, Yunli was plotted, his life or death was uncertain, and the army was without a commander."
Ling Ruo thought for a moment and said: "Your Majesty, isn't there anyone in the court who can replace Prince Guo to conquer Jungar?"
Yinzhen raised his head and looked at the colorful painting of Hexi on the top, and said in a deep voice: "This expedition has allowed me to see Yunli's military commanding talents. He is definitely not inferior to me or Lao Shisan. If it weren't for him, even if I were
Gained insight into Hongshi in advance
I'm afraid I can't push Zhun Geer to this point with his tricks. It's really difficult to find someone with the same ability as him in the court. If Zhun Geer makes a counterattack, the gain will not be worth the loss."
"Then what the emperor means..." Faced with Ling Ruo's inquiry, Yinzhen gave a helpless smile, "I'm afraid this time, we will let Jungar continue to exist."
Ling Ruo said in surprise: "Is the emperor planning to withdraw the army?"
"Yes, although Fobiao has increased its troops by 100,000, Tsarist Russia's weapons are powerful and the casualties are very high. From the beginning of the war to now, they have lost 50,000 to 60,000 horses. It is very unfavorable for us to engage in a war between the two sides. So I decided to concentrate our forces.
Deal with Tsarist Russia
, it just so happens that the firearms battalion in the Yunli Army can fight against the musketeers of Tsarist Russia." At this point, Yinzhen shook his head and said: "Although I have made up my mind, I am still a little unwilling, Zhun Geer... Ben
He should be removed from this world."
Ling Ruo said softly: "Although he has not achieved this step, Zhungeer is still lingering. At least for a few years, it is impossible to cause trouble. The emperor can rest assured for a while."
Yinzhen shook his head and said: "With Galdan's ambition, once he is given time to recuperate, he will definitely make a comeback, and there will be another war."
"But now that the prince is like this, the Thirteenth Master is not in good health, and the emperor is worried about sending other commanders, so he can only put this matter aside for the time being and wait until the opportunity comes." After Yinzhen nodded, Ling Ruohu said:
"Has your Majesty sent someone to check on the person who assassinated Prince Guo again?"
Yinzhen shook his head and said: "The man is already dead, and no useful information can be found. However, he has poison in his teeth. He is probably a dead man raised by some big families."
"Dead soldiers..." Ling Ruo's first thought was the secret guards of the Nala clan. After thinking about it, she said: "Your Majesty, Hongshi once colluded with Jungar, will the dead soldiers...
Is it also related to him?"
Ling Ruo's words reminded Yinzhen of something. When Hong Shi led people to force the palace, he once said something - even I was wondering whether they... had the fate to return to the court!
He asked Hongshi what he meant at that time, but Hongshi refused to say it. He only said that he would know it when the time comes. If Hongshi had predicted what happened today at that time, then the assassin who assassinated Yunli must be
He arranges things, and only those who make them will know the consequences of his arrangements.
Damn it, if he had asked a few more questions, he might have been able to force Hongshi to tell him, and Yunli wouldn't have ended up like he did today.
Seeing Yinzhen showing annoyance, Ling Ruo said with concern: "Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
Yinzhen shook his head and said: "It's nothing. You are right. The assassin who assassinated Yunli was probably sent by Hongshi. He had long had the intention of killing Yunli. As for the reason... it should be that he was afraid that after he ascended the throne,
I can’t control Yunli who holds military power.”
"The second elder brother has such a vicious heart, he really deserves to be killed!" This was the first time that Ling Ruo showed strong murderous intention in front of Yinzhen. After all, Yunli had contributed to the Qing Dynasty, but Hongshi sent someone to kill him for his own selfish interests.
The courtesy is really too much.
"You're right, he really deserves to be killed!" Yinzhen gritted his teeth and spit out these words, and the murderous intention that was originally extinguished was ignited again at this moment.
What Hongshi did crossed his bottom line again and again. Not only did he want to kill Hongli, he even refused to let Yunli go.
Yinzhen smiled solemnly and said: "I sometimes wonder if I did something wrong to give birth to such a son who is worse than a beast."
"It has nothing to do with the emperor. People with the same income can support different things. Although Hongshi is the emperor's heir, the kind of person he will become is beyond the emperor's control. In fact, the emperor has done his best to provide
He gave everything to Hongshi. Unfortunately, he was not only ungrateful, but also wrong.
The road is getting farther and farther." Ling Ruo paused and continued: "The emperor has many things to do every day, and has several children to take care of, so he cannot take care of everything day and night, but the queen... She treats Hongshi as her own son, but she never treats Hongshi as her own child.
When I was pulled back on the road, the Queen was the one who really did the wrong thing."
Yinzhen did not speak. After a moment of silence, he said: "I was focused on the relationship between father and son, and wanted to spare Hongshi's life, but...he challenged my bottom line again and again. Look.
Come on, I have to bear the bad reputation of parricide."
"The fault lies with Hongshi, and everyone in the world will understand the emperor." Although Ling Ruo always maintained a trace of kindness, she would never give it to Hongshi. Over the years, Hongshi had harmed his wife for the sake of the throne.
There are too many innocent people and the death penalty is not an exaggeration.
Yinzhen nodded, and said to Xiaowu with a hint of exhaustion: "Go to the clan's mansion and tell me that Hongshi will kill Prince Guo and commit suicide!"
Xiaowu's heart trembled, and he quickly lowered his head and agreed, and then hurried to the sect's house. When he appeared in the sight of Hongshi, who was copying Buddhist scriptures, Hongshi's hand holding the pen tightened, and he slowly put down the pen in his hand.
Afterwards, he said: "The Fifth Eunuch is able to come here, presumably because of the emperor's order. I wonder if the emperor has anything else to say to me?"
Xiao Wu said coolly: "After repelling Jungar, Prince Guo was attacked and poisoned. Now his life or death is unclear. The emperor knows that this matter is related to you, so he ordered his slaves to come here to pass on oral instructions."
, he took the tray with a pot of wine, a dagger, and a piece of white silk from the hands of the young eunuch behind him, and said word by word: "The emperor said: Here, Hongshi will commit suicide!"
Hongshi expected that this moment would come sooner or later, but when he heard it from Xiaowu, he still couldn't help but feel cold all over. He took the tray tremblingly and said: "Sinners obey the order!"
Xiao Wu stood motionless. Since he was ordered to deliver the order, he naturally wanted to watch Hong Shi commit suicide before returning to the palace to answer his orders.
After Hongshi put the tray on the table, he stroked several Buddhist scriptures that had been copied by the family members on the table, and said softly: "The Emperor Ama wants Hongshi to commit suicide. Hongshi naturally has nothing to say, but before that, there is still
I have a request that I hope my father-in-law can grant."
