Chapter 113

Deju wrote back the letter for about two days. At the beginning, he wrote a greeting to His Royal Highness the Prince, telling how he stood out in Ningguta and how he achieved the step of sewing people.

At the beginning, sewing people was hard. My uncle at home accidentally cut a big hole in his arm while working. Seeing that the blood was flowing, the person would die if he delayed it. Then he gritted his teeth and sewed the hole with needle and thread.

Ningguta is a miserable place. Everything here is primitive and backward, and it requires people's hands to create living conditions. Even doctors are rare figures here.

Dezhu thanked Yinreng again and said in the letter: Although Doctor Lu appreciated his slaves, he had no intention of accepting them as his disciples. After all, the doctors in the Imperial Hospital accepted their disciples and brought them all doctors from the palace. He was willing to say a few words, and the slave was already very grateful. Later, he heard that the slaves came from His Highness’s palace. Although Doctor Lu had not spoken, he actually regarded the slaves as his disciples.

This imperial physician is a descendant of the great medical practitioner. He has learned the experience left to future generations by the miracle doctor Hua Tuo. With the guidance of the imperial physician Lu, the servant entered the way, learned to distinguish other people's internal organs, and learned to have the meridians of people's arms and meridians.

After three years, Dezhu has endless words to say to Yinreng. He is not familiar with the place here. Although people respect him, he feels an unprecedented sense of accomplishment, but his heart is as uneasy as duckweed. Seeing Yinreng's clean and refreshing handwriting, imagine the way His Royal Highness the Crown Prince wrote to him seriously. Dezhu couldn't help but miss the good days of eating and drinking with His Royal Highness in Yuqing Palace.

Ah, and Tom, who is full of furry and will not get angry no matter how he touches it. Don’t you know if it still remembers itself?

After writing, Deju could only apologize to the messenger who came to deliver the letter: "I'm afraid I'm writing a lot, and I need to think about it for a while, and I don't know if these can be delivered..."

The message sender smiled and said, "Doctor Dezhu is so heavy. As long as it is not a cargo weighing dozens of kilograms, a few letters can be as heavy as it can be. It will not affect the fast horse's galloping. Just write it."

So Dezhu wrote down what he saw and heard in Ningguta and Longxingjiang City.

Your Highness, you may not know that the people living on the border of Longxingjiang City have various ethnic groups. Some of them come from different tribes and can hardly communicate with each other, but they still enjoy using gestures to help each other.

The days here are hard, but the customs of the people are very simple. Perhaps it is because the Northern Barbarians always invade here from time to time. Even women, the people here, will fight against the enemy with kitchen knives. The children here have been taught since childhood where to escape when the enemy invades and who to help them. I don’t know how many lives have been ruined in this unbearable homeland, but even so, the people here still love this place.

After General Sabusu's troops arrived in Aihui, people felt much more at ease. Perhaps because they knew that the imperial army was protecting them, they worked harder when rebuilding the house this time and worked together to build the damaged city wall.

The slaves rescued a Buryat Mongolian. Their ancestors were originally grazing on the other side of the Longxing River. There was once a fertile prairie and a lake with abundant aquatic products. People named the lake "Baikal".

Later, the Northern Barbarians invaded and took away their pastures, and sent their ancestors and their fathers to serve as slaves, and in order to force them to surrender. From then on, the Buryat Mongolians were divided into two halves, half of whom were compromised and forced to surrender. They accepted the rule of the Northern Barbarians on the other side of the Longxing River, and were forced to do the work of slaves, and all the income from grazing became owned by the owner.

But Buryat, who was dissatisfied with the Northern Barbarians, fled that place, crossed the river and came east of Longxing River, lived with the people on the border, and became a new tribe.

The person saved by the slave was the Buryat Mongolian who fled to the border to live. When he was saving him, he would always say a word in his nightmare. At first, the slave couldn't understand it, but later he realized that it turned out to be the meaning of "Briyat will never be a slave".

Saipan said that the Buryat Mongolians wanted to seek help from the Qing Dynasty, and he also wanted to rescue his tribe, but the land in Lake Baikal is still far from the Longxing River, which is even west than Nebuchu occupied by the Northern Barbarians.

From Lake Baikal, to Nebchu, to the now occupied city of Yaquesa, it has repeatedly attacked Longxingjiang City in recent years.

Although I don’t understand national affairs, I am at the border and smell the desolate smell of the border, and seeing life and death too much, I also have hidden worries in my heart.

The Northern Barbarians took more than ten years to slowly erode a large area of ​​the Qing Dynasty's border. If even Longxingjiang City was occupied, then the Liaodong of the Qing Dynasty would be exposed to the enemy's sight. They were greedy, like feeding unfamiliar wild wolves, and they would never be content. They would only spend decades bit by bit to expand their territory and enslave the local people.

Fortunately, the Qing army had already stationed in Aihui, with General Sabusu and the leaders of various tribes near Longxing River working together, they would definitely be able to defend Aihui and Longxing River City.

Since there was food, people here could eat enough by changing goods and buying food, and no longer have to eat wild vegetables and fruits.

Two days later, Dezhu sent a thick stack of his writings to the sender. The sender took it with a smile: "It seems that the Doctor Dezhu misses the capital very much."

"I miss my master," Deju said deeply.

Your Highness and the Cat Master are both his masters.

The sender nodded in a clear understanding. The doctor came from the capital, and of course he was a talent trained by the royal family, so there must be a lot to do behind him.

"Don't worry, this letter will be delivered to your master safely," the messenger promised, wrapping the credit cloths, then wrapping them with a layer of oil paper, then wrapping them with a layer of cloth, and then putting them into a cloth bag and carrying them on your body.

On the other hand, Kangxi had ordered everyone to set off for the trip and return to Beijing, and discussed with Yinreng: "When I returned to the city, I and Baocheng left separately. Baocheng took the ministers and civil and military officials back from the Lihe Road, and I led the princes and ministers to the Thousand-Shou Buddhist Temple to enjoy incense. (1)"

"Then, wait until you arrive in Beizhen and go to Zhuangzhen Fort to meet me." This journey from Shengjing to Shanhaiguan was only four days in total. Kangxi himself took only a small number of people to walk fast, so he asked Yinreng to lead a large team and walk slowly.

The emperor divided the more than 70,000 people on the road into two groups, formally taught Yinreng the task, and ordered him to lead most of the 70,000 people to walk smooth roads. He himself took a detour and passed through several wastelands, Niuzhuang, Shaling and other places. The roads were blocked. Once it rained, the ground would be out of the pit and it would be difficult for the carriage to go through the ear road.

"Now with cement, it's much easier to deal with. I've walked slowly. In a few days, the newly built roads over there will be done."

Yinreng scratched his head and stuffed most of the court officials to Kangxi, while the royal relatives and nobles and concubines who had been in contact with the royal family followed Kangxi on another road.

"Is Khan asked Erchen to take nearly 50,000 people away because there are many people and large teams, so is it not easy to take a detour?"

"This is one of them. I want to go to Guangyou Temple to surrender the incense, which can be regarded as fulfilling the wish of the emperor's grandmother."

As for other things, if you visit Qianshan and other things, it will be other political actions.

Yinreng was surprised: "Khan Ama finally stopped tying the Erchen to his belt!"

Kangxi: "…"

He stared at his son Bear for a moment and smiled: "I am not here, so I can still send someone to stare at you."

So don't cause trouble for me. Some of the nearly 50,000 teams are staring at the crown prince.

Yinreng: "My son is so sensible. He is not the kind of person who goes to the house and removes the tiles if he is not here!"

"This time I took Soetu and Yinzhi away, and sent Nalan Mingzhu and his son to follow you."

Yinreng's eyes lit up: The pearl in his hand and Rong Ruo have a good relationship.

Kangxi smiled and told Yinreng: "There are also Luanyi Guards and accompanying the army. There are so many people watching, and the daily route is a prescribed route. Isn't it possible to do anything else?"

[It seems that the child’s reputation has become a negative number for his father.] Yinreng became angry and embarrassed: Shut up!

He felt that Khan Ama was now like a Black Cat Sheriff, and he was the little mouse who was stared at by the Sheriff. He was deterred by the Black Cat Sheriff every day. If he committed a crime, the sheriff would have to use handcuffs to arrest the mouse and shut the black room.

Yinreng said righteously: "Khan Ama, I can swear that I will definitely be honest and not cause any trouble on the road."

"Why am I worried about you doing bad things? I am worried about your safety. I will send you all the Luanyi Guards," Kangxi touched Yinreng's head and said with relief: "I will only be separated for four days on the road."

Yinreng patted his chest and promised: "My son will miss Khan Ama a thousand times a day!"

Kangxi: "…"

The emperor's stuck expression was so interesting. Liang Jiugong quickly lowered his head and couldn't help it.

"puff."

The author has something to say: Comments (1)

Nalan Xingde, who followed Kangxi's second Eastern Tour, also recorded the enormous size of the escort team in his "Chang Xiangsi: Going to the Frontier": "A journey of the mountain and a journey of water. Walking towards the banks of Yuguan, it is late at night." Although Nalan Xingde's words "Thousand-point lamp" are a general number, it can also be seen that the size of the personnel of Kangxi's Eastern Tour. For such a huge team, only by choosing the most convenient route can the materials consumed be minimized. However, the route chosen by Kangxi's Shengjing → Liaoyang → Jihuangtun → Niuzhuang → Shaling → Zhuangzhenbao was a long journey. Moreover, this journey "from Liaoyang to this point, the land is wet, the mud is sloppy after the rain, and the travel time is difficult." The only explanation is

Yes, there were important things to do during the four days when Kangxi separated from Shengjing and the Crown Prince Yunreng to Zhuangzhen Fort. Combined with the "Qing Dynasty Records" and "Kangxi's Daily Notes", we found that Kangxi did the following things in these four days: one was to go to Guangyou Temple in Liaoyang to descend on the incense; the second was to travel thousands of mountains; the third was to send ministers to pay homage to Shangkexi's tomb; the fourth was to travel around to surround and shoot tigers. Kangxi went around many times during the eastern tour. If he only went around to shoot tigers, there was no need for Kangxi to detour through Shaling. The incense was obviously not Kangxi's main purpose. Excluding the purpose of walking around, the reason why Kangxi chose this route was very clear, namely: go to Guangyou Temple to descend on the incense, travel across thousands of mountains and send ministers to Shangkexi's to pay homage to.
