Chapter 110
Nalan Mingzhu couldn't believe her ears!
What did His Royal Highness call him? What beads?
Judging from the eldest prince's reaction of a big deal, it seemed that he had already known that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince gave him a nickname.
Yinreng bent down and pulled Yinzhi and said to Yinzhi quietly: "I think Mingxiang seems to be very suitable to be the spokesperson for Khan Ama. It is reliable to leave the road construction matters to Ming to teach the third grandfather in the future."
Grandpa San needs to take good care of him, so where can he go to the wind and sun? He has to stand in the sun to build roads. If the sun is too sunny, wrinkles will grow, and older men cannot hold umbrellas, so it is better to leave this matter to the pearl in his hand.
Yinzhi replied angrily: "Why are you staring at Mingxiang in everything? How could he really listen to you and do things for you? Mingxiang doesn't like you."
The two children whispered and bit their ears, their voices as low as mosquitoes. Nalan Mingzhu was a little far away from them, not the kind of talking loudly, and it was really unclear.
I vaguely heard a few words "Mingxiang...like."
Then the Crown Prince's voice was much higher than before, as if he was talking to Nalan Mingzhu.
"But Gu likes Mingxiang. How wonderful he is, he is capable and friendly."
Nalan Mingzhu: “…”
Should he feel flattered or should he be relieved that his acting skills have reached the pinnacle?
No, the first thing Nalan Mingzhu thinks of her old opponent - Soetu.
The two have been politically enemies for many years. They are fighting for their own family positions and interests, and stand behind the eldest prince and the crown prince. Previously, the eldest prince and the crown prince had a good relationship, so Nalan Mingzhu felt disheartened. But now, when she heard that the crown prince likes her, Nalan Mingzhu thought of Soetu and thought that she was as frustrated as she was, and her heart was even more frustrated, and she felt strangely happy in her heart.
No matter which aspect it is, as long as he defeated the old opponent of Soetu, Nalan Mingzhu felt happy.
"I have seen Your Highness the Crown Prince, Brother," Nalan Mingzhu's smile became even more sincere. Although she was full of black water and wanted to plan for the eldest prince and peeked at the prince and pulled him off the horse, he would never show his malice in front of the prince, the child.
"Ming Gao came to the palace to look for Khan Ama early in the morning, but is there something important?" Yinzhi spoke first before Yinreng, and took a step forward to block Yinreng's way.
Yinreng: It seems like he is afraid that he will bully the pearl in his hand. Is he such a person?
"Yes, there is indeed a matter of urgent matter," Nalan Mingzhu bowed and said, "General Ningguta sent the news, and the Tsarist Russians attacked the border Longxingjiang City, set fire in the city, and persecuted the people. I will ask the palace servants to inform the emperor. It happened to be my turn last night, and I came to the palace as soon as I received the news."
Recently, memorials sent from all over the country have been sent to Malay newspapers for 800 miles. Because the emperor is traveling abroad, the cabinet operated by the central government in the capital can handle part of the government affairs, and the other important part will be delivered to Kangxi. In order to send the news as soon as possible, some even day and night, a system of taking officials who are taking the government affairs by the emperor to take turns to serve the night. If there is really a 100,000 yuan in a hurry, officials are allowed to disturb the emperor's sleep and come to report at night. It must not be delayed overnight.
As he said that, Nalan Mingzhu accused them first and headed towards the palace where Kangxi rested.
Yinreng and Yinzhi looked at each other and asked him worriedly: "The border is in a hurry again. Longxingjiang City is the northernmost city in the Qing Dynasty. The defense there is weak. The local people who can sneak into Aihui try to move in as much as possible. The others stay in their old places and don't want to leave. Every time the Tsarist Russia sends people to burn, kill, loot, they are always the first to be persecuted. I don't know how many people will die."
"Since the migration order has been issued, they are unwilling to leave their hometown. There is no way. The guard general cannot disobey the military order. I see that Khan Ama means that he plans to station troops in Aihui for a long time to resist the enemy. Didn't the grain line planned yesterday go from Shengjing to Ningguta, then to Aihui, and even to Longxingjiang City?"
"On the Songhua River and Longxing River go north," Yinreng calculated the map and sighed: "The north of Longxing River is the city of Yaquesa occupied by Tsarist Russia."
It would be great if the city of Yaquesa could be recaptured, but in this way, the Qing Dynasty's front line would be too long to supply food and grass for a long time, and there would be a risk of food and grass being cut off.
"These things are discussed by Khan Ama and the court officials. How worried are you?" Yinzhi said helplessly. He pointed Yinreng's head: "I was so focused at such a young age. I was worried about this and that. I didn't know that I had limited abilities. I might as well study hard now so that I can help in the future. I can also take this opportunity to see how the adults deal with this matter."
"Every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the country," Yinreng said seriously: "Although I don't want to do it..., I am the prince now. I am in this position, claiming to be alone, and enjoying excellent education and noble status. These are not in vain, I have the responsibility."
He bears responsibility for being a crown prince. He has the responsibility of being a crown prince. Yinreng likes to do new things and likes to be lazy occasionally. He does not want to be a "social animal" like Khan Ama, but this does not mean that he does not want to be responsible. Khan Ama resists the Qing Dynasty on his shoulders, and his responsibility is to help Khan Ama share the burden together.
"Many of the people on the border are from other ethnic groups," Yinreng whispered: "They live in groups and grazed on the grassland outside. There is their roots there. How did they migrate to the mainland?"
"Khan Ama polites them, gives them preferential treatment, protects them, and allows them to trade with the Guandi, but they also want to survive. Move to Aihui City and stay away from the grasslands, and they will no longer have pastures and no foundation for survival. Of course, they will not leave, and they will not farm."
Yinreng gently pushed Yinzhi: "Hurry up, let's get to the point of our palms and listen to what Khan Ama will do next."
The two children left like this. The palace people hesitated for a moment and followed their steps. Madam Xu turned around and looked reluctantly at the "Go to Win the Treasure" created by His Royal Highness last night, and became deeply worried about her master's little buttocks.
The time of Mao was when Kangxi went to court on weekdays. Although he got up a little late after traveling, the palace servants came to inform him, and Kangxi woke up immediately.
When Yinreng and the others arrived, they saw the eunuch who had sent the orders hurriedly, perhaps to announce who entered the palace.
"Khan Ama, can I come in?" Yinreng shouted, his voice very loudly.
"Come in, I didn't expect Baocheng to wake up so early," Kangxi said. Seeing Yinzhi also coming, he even asked someone to give them a seat.
"When I woke up, I was looking at the steps made of cement, but I found that it was still too rough. If the carriage was to drive smoothly on the concrete floor and let the road be used for a long time, I am afraid that the foundation and other steps would be needed. Regarding this, the officials who built roads in the Qing Dynasty should know better than Erchen. Then Erchen and his elder brother saw the palm..."
Nalan Mingzhu browed.
Yinreng quickly changed his words: "Ming Xiang came in a hurry. He heard Ming Xiang say that the border was in urgent need, and he was worried about the situation, so he followed."
Kangxi nodded, and while waiting for the summons to summon the minister, he ordered people to serve some snacks, which was to give the two children a belly, and even Nalan Mingzhu had a share.
Nalan Mingzhu, who rarely felt the warmth from the emperor, was flattered. In the past, the emperor did not like him and Soetu had a party dispute. Whenever they were too far, the emperor called them to the front of the emperor and dealt with them with the "cold bench".
Nalan Mingzhu is still a little self-aware. If one day he doesn't fight with Soetu, the emperor may not be happy. It would be better to fight like this. Apart from conflicts of interest, he did look at Soetu's nose growing up to the sky, and he always looked at people with his nostrils.
I just don’t know how Soetu, who is full of bad water, could have taught such a scheming prince?
Nalan Mingzhu thought that the prince was not on guard against him, but she liked him a little, so she wanted to laugh three times: I really should let Soetu listen too!
Soon, the ministers summoned by the emperor also arrived one after another. General Shengjing, Soetu, cabinet scholars Li Tianfu, Du Zhen, Gao Shiqi, who worked in the Nanshu, arrived in time.
"Emperor, Tsarist Russia has repeatedly refused to listen to our warnings and invaded our Qing Dynasty's border again. The Qing Dynasty has already upheld a modest and courteous attitude and forgiven the enemy many times, but ordered it to withdraw from the Qing Dynasty territory. Now it seems that the enemy is like an unfamiliar wild wolf, always eyeing the Qing Dynasty's territory. Now only by raising wars and suppressing them with strong martial arts can we deter the enemy and prevent them from committing another crime!"
General Shengjing is the main war faction and has a close support relationship with General Ningguta. Whenever he hears another thief invading the border city and is waiting for General Ningguta to dispatch troops and generals, the enemy has already robbed him and run away. He has been depressed for a long time and wishes to rush to the enemy's nest immediately and kill him without leaving any armor.
Although he was a martial artist, General Shengjing knew how to ask the emperor and ask the civil servants for their opinions. He was able to stay for a long time again. He was not a brainless reckless man.
"I want to send envoys to Tsarist Russia and warn him of his emperor, but the Qing Dynasty knew nothing about the situation of Tsarist Russia that migrated from the cold and invaded our territory."
"Why don't the emperor send missionaries to this trip?"
Soetu said: "The Qing Dynasty may need the help of foreign envoys from the vassal states. Among them, there may be people who understand the language of the Tsarist Russians. They come from outside the vassal states, or they can be intermediaries. Perhaps they know more about Tsarist Russia than the Qing officials."
Kangxi agreed with Soetu's statement: "I brought Nan Huairen together for this."
Kangxi then ordered people to invite Nan Huairen to talk to the missionary from Belgium about the Qing Dynasty's anger towards Tsarist Russia: "If they are stubborn, don't blame me for showing mercy and sending troops to the expedition."
Nan Huairen said: "Belgium, which comes from the west of the ocean, does not have a deep understanding of Tsarist Russia, but can recommend missionaries to the emperor."
When Nan Huairen was unwilling to go to the bitter and cold Tsarist Russia in person, it took time for him to recommend someone to Kangxi, and it would be difficult to bring people here in a while.
So Nan Huairen came up with an idea: "I know the 'common term' used by some people who also believe in Jesus. In order to spread love, those who believe in Jesus traveled all over the country."
In other words, not only did the Qing Dynasty have missionaries, but also Tsarist Russia.
"Now I can write a 'book' for the emperor in the 'common language' to communicate with the emperor of Tsarist Russia. Just need the emperor to send someone to sneak this 'book' into the 'Russian territory and reach the place where the Jesuits gather, and they can contact the tsar."
"Your Majesty, I think what Master Nan said makes sense. Since ancient times, it has to be ruled that "two countries will not kill the envoys when they fight. " However, Tsarist Russia is a 'barbarian' from the north. They are barbaric, bloody, and do not follow the rules. They will not be so moral."
Kangxi pondered for a moment, ordered people to bring paper and pen, wrote the imperial order himself, and Nan Huairen was the intermediary, passing this "warning letter" to the Tsarist Russia.
After Nan Huairen left, Yinreng said: "Khan Ama, you have done enough with the adults. Tsarist Russia has already started to invade the Qing territory decades ago. They will not give up on continuing the invasion because of your "warning". Now this "warning letter" can make them think that the Qing Dynasty still has the intention to make friends with them, and does not want to use troops. It is better to step up the arrangements before the enemy has reacted yet, and it is better to prepare for attacking the enemy. Time is money. Now the Qing Dynasty is racing in time, and the first attackers can get the initiative!"
His Royal Highness's golden words are frequently spoken, and it is really surprising that the crown prince of a country advocates the war in the war between the two countries, just like the pro-war faction.
General Shengjing suddenly felt excited and praised His Highness the Crown Prince: "Your Highness the Crown Prince is right. Your Majesty, the enemy cannot be satisfied for a while. Taking advantage of the numbness of the enemy now, the Qing Dynasty should prepare for the war as soon as possible. I would like to approve His Highness the Crown Prince!"
His Highness the Crown Prince and General Shengjing sang together, and the two were like singing a double act. One said "time is money", and the other said that the emperor sent a missionary to warn the Tsarist Russia's behavior to "numb the enemy". Kangxi was speechless for a while.
Nalan Mingzhu asked with a smile: "How can your Highness be sure that Tsarist Russia will not retreat because of the strength of our Qing army?"
Yinreng said strangely: "We know that the Qing army is powerful, but the enemy doesn't know. They only know that the Qing border is easy to invade. At this time, attacking the enemy is to prove to them the strength of the Qing army!" Mingzhu in the palm is so stupid. Why didn't he even know this?
"If you don't show it, who knows how strong we are?" Just like Khan Ama doesn't know that his wallet has been stolen if he doesn't show his wallet.
