Chapter 565, victory
After reading the recent accounts sent by Rouge Shop, Daohua moved her stiff neck. During this time, she swept the moon hanging in the sky outside the window, and she could not help but meditate.
It’s the end of March now, and it’s almost a month since Xiao Yeyang and his third and fourth elder brothers left. I don’t know if they transported their weapons to Northern Xinjiang and handed them over to the frontier soldiers?
"If the mission is completed, it's time to set off and come back."
Wang Man'er came in with hot water, saw Daohua sitting in a daze, and smiled immediately: "Girl, it's late at night, hurry up and wash and rest."
Daohua nodded in return, put the account book and walked over.
Wang Man'er waited for Daohua to wash and said, “Today the madam took the second wife to the banquet of He Tongzhi’s family. I heard that it seems to be coming back with a calm face.”
Daohua asked: "How is my mother's face?"
Wang Man'er smiled and said, "Madam seems to be fine."
Hearing these words, Daohua relaxed and didn't ask too much.
Wang Man'er continued to say, "Girl, I don’t understand what the second wife thinks. Not long ago, she took her to the Yuntong judge's house, and she was refuted by the Yun family girl as soon as she showed her attitude. When I came back, I actually fell in love with a girl from the Zhizhou family this time. Fortunately, the wife changed the topic in time to avoid making the scene too ugly."
Daohua shook her head, "Say that the second aunt doesn't know how to measure, but she also knows that her father is an official of the fourth grade, so she only finds a daughter-in-law in the official's house of the fifth and sixth grades. If she knows how to measure, she is too Overestimated the conditions of the second brother."
said, sighed.
"Actually, if the second brother has fame, it will be easier to say that he is a pro, even if he is just a talent, others will not refuse so quickly."
Wang Man'er nodded: "Who said no. Girl, do you think Erye is not very motivated?"
Daohua paused. To be honest, she didn’t pay much attention to her second brother, because at the beginning of Wangyue Academy’s quota, the second brother had complaints against her, and the two had nothing to do with each other, except to go. The old lady ate in the yard, and she couldn't even touch her face.
was silent for a while, Daohua said: "Second brother is actually very flexible, that is, maybe there is no specific goal."
Both uncles and aunts are shrewd and powerful people, and they are very good at fighting for the benefits of the second room. With them charging ahead, the second brother can sit back and enjoy it without doing anything. Anyway, the second uncle and aunt will solve it for him. As time goes by, There was no fighting spirit, and it was easy to start.
Unlike the elder brother, from the time he was sensible, his father told him his responsibilities and mission as the eldest grandson of Yan's parents, and set him a clear goal, so he would study desperately.
As for the third brother, when he was in his hometown, he knew that he had to take care of his family’s fields so that he would not be hungry. Later, he went to Wangyue Academy to study, and he understood a lot, his knowledge increased, and he knew his own shortcomings and began to work secretly. As he grows older, knowing that he will carry the burden of the three rooms in the future, he naturally knows that he wants to make progress.
As for the fourth elder brother, to be honest, several elder brothers are his happiest, with his father and brother on top of him, and he has no courage on his shoulders, so he can live recklessly and easily. But the companions around him are all too good. When there is a comparison, they know to catch up.
Fifth brother, under the influence of Aunt Lin, it is estimated that this life will treat her eldest brother as an imaginary enemy, desperately chasing and surpassing, so she also worked extraordinarily.
The other two younger brothers are still too young to see anything for the time being.
Wang Man'er didn’t quite understand, and turned to the familiar: “Fortunately, since the beginning of the spring, there have been many banquets held by each family. Otherwise, the second lady might make trouble for his wife to hold a banquet at home, or take her to another home.”
Daohua calmly said: "My mother won't let her make trouble, she will only satisfy her a little bit within the allowed range, after all, our family still wants face."
After washing, Daohua changed her pajamas and lay on the bed. After thinking about it, she said, "It's time to see her mother-in-law and master again in two days. Tomorrow, remember to pack up the medicinal materials I prepared. "
After finishing speaking, she frowned.
"The last time I went, I found that my mother-in-law was thinner again. After my grandmother knew about it, she also thought about her.
Wang Man'er nodded and responded: "Don't worry, girl, I let the lower girl look at those medicinal materials."
Inaba nodded.
Wang Maner quietly withdrew from the inner room until she fell asleep.
Two days later, Daohua and Mrs. Yan went to Taohua Village together. This time the two stayed in the house until Yan Wenxiu returned from the capital in mid-April.
As soon as he got home, Daohua saw her elder brother with joy between her eyebrows, and immediately smiled: "Sure enough, I am going to marry my sister-in-law. The eldest brother who has always been stingy smiles will laugh."
Listening to her sister's joking, Yan Wenxiu glared at her uncomfortably: "I brought some fashionable bead flowers and materials back, and let them be put in your yard. When you go back, see if you like it or not." , Paused, "It was chosen by the second girl of the Han family."
Daohua smiled and leaned forward, blinking her eyes playfully and asked: "So, this time, the big brother and sister-in-law in Beijing have met? Seeing the beaming look of the older brother, we can see that she is very satisfied with the sister-in-law."
Yan Wenxiu saw her talking more and more, and lightly tapped her forehead: "What is your girl talking about? I don't know how to be embarrassed."
Daohua covered her head and smiled: “I’m happy for my eldest brother. If my eldest brother is satisfied with his sister-in-law, I won’t worry about the girl outside, and my family will be happy.”
Hearing the words, Yan Wenxiu's expression was stagnant, and he looked up at his sister, always feeling that there was something in the girl's words.
Where does Daohua let his eldest brother explore, jumping and running far.
Yan Wenxiu saw it, chuckled silently, and then thought of what Daohua had said, the smile on his face first slowly disappeared, and then gradually emerged.
At the same time, in the capital city in April, the court officials were blown away by the triumphant news from the northern border.
At the end of March: Xia Teng army raided the Tatar barracks, wiped out the main Tatar army, and forced the Tatar to retreat hundreds of miles.
Sixth day of April: Jin Lingwei commanded Master Xiao and led more than ten Jin Lingwei to capture the prince Tatar.
On the 10th day of April: Jin Lingwei commanded Master Xiao and Jin Lingwei successfully captured many masterpieces in our army barracks, and some of them were still highly powerful.
If the first two items also made the Manchu civil and military overjoyed, when the last news came back, it would directly blow up the courtiers and slam their heads, making the court surging.
At the same time, when they were pleasantly surprised by the results of the war in northern Xinjiang, both the officials and the people had a question in their hearts.
That is the commander of Jin Lingwei who has done a great job, Lord Xiao, who is sacred? Why haven't you heard of it before?
The honourable person with a little better news immediately thought of the person who was specially appointed by the emperor before, and sighed, "It really is the person who was specially appointed by the emperor!"
But, who is it?
In the morning on April 13th, the officials all looked different. When the emperor arrived, all of them bowed their heads and were quiet as chickens.
The emperor was in a very good mood. Tatar, who had been stuck in the border, was finally beaten back. Although he had not been completely driven away, he believed that soon his soldiers would beat the hungry wolves away from them. Dare to invade Daxia again.
The emperor turned the emerald finger on his thumb, and looked at the officials below with interest, especially the few known people who had taken refuge in the old eight. Seeing the panic and uneasiness in their eyes, he felt that the whole body was relaxed.
Thinking about the progress of the Baxianju side, the emperor’s smile deepened.
He will get rid of all the power of the old eight bit by bit!
The emperor's squinting and smiling look scared the lower officials.
Seeing the trembling of the officials, the emperor slowly said: “Do you know why since last year, Tatar has been stalemate by the soldiers of Northern Xinjiang and our army?”
Thinking of the details captured, no one of the officials dared to come forward and reply.
The emperor seemed to have expected this kind of reaction from the officials, and he didn't care at all. He continued to say: "This is because some people with ulterior motives want to take advantage of external troubles to cause civil unrest in the court and hinder us, so as to profit for themselves. ."
said, chuckled.
"The country is picturesque, who can't love it!"
This, the emperor said softly, but it sounded like a thunder in the ears of courtiers, making their brains buzzing.
Although the emperor did not specify the identity of the work, which one might be silly to participate in the court meeting?
Eight Kings!
The hall is silent, and you can’t even hear the breathing unless you listen carefully.
No one is not afraid of things like contesting for the throne and seeking to usurp the throne.
The emperor and other ministers calmed down for a while, and then said with a smile: "I have always had a question in my heart. In the past few years, the emperor has not done well enough? Has he killed the courtiers or treated the people harshly? How come there will be life now. If you have a different mind, you don’t even care about the country’s righteousness."
At first, the voice was still smiling, but afterwards, he gritted his teeth with an undisguised killing intent.
As soon as these words came out, all the ministers immediately knelt down on the ground with a neat ‘poof’.
The emperor watched the courtier for a long time, and then stood up: "Let’s end today’s morning meeting."
After the emperor left the main hall, there was a sound of relief in the hall.
The emperor was so scary just now.
Because of kneeling for a while, and the strength of kneeling just now was a bit strong, some elderly ministers still need to support each other to stand up, even if they are strong and physically strong, their legs are a little weak.
The ministers came out in twos and threes, and the officials who had good relations with each other and the same party looked at each other, and then left without saying a word.
Cheng Engong walked at the end, standing outside the hall and looking at the courtiers who were going away, after thinking about it, he turned around and went to Cining Palace.
Cining Palace.
When the Queen Mother saw Gong En-en, she knew his intentions, and she had also heard about the Northern Frontier.
Cheng Engong sighed: "We still underestimate the emperor." There were also their people over the barracks, but they didn't know anything about the Xia Teng army's raid on Tatar.
The queen mother was silent for a while: "The emperor is full of wings. Don't challenge his bottom line anymore. As long as we don't cross the line, he dare not attack the Jiang family for his own reputation."
"Anyway, in front of the world, I am his biological mother. I will start with his uncle's family, and he has to consider whether there will be a family that dares to do things for him in the future."
Cheng En's father twisted his eyebrows: "The Queen Mother knows who is the Master Xiao who captured the Tatar Prince alive?"
The Queen Mother raised her eyes and looked over: "What do you think?"
Cheng Engong said uncertainly: "Xiao is a national character, and he must be valued and trusted by the emperor. Do you think it is Yeyang that kid?"
Although the queen mother had this speculation, she denied it: "Yeyang's child is only 17 years old this year. Given his impetuous and impulsive temperament when he was a child, he doesn't seem to be someone who can do such a big thing."
Cheng En Gong: "Young generals, young noble ministers, such people are not uncommon."
The queen mother nodded: "You're right. What has happened to Yeyang in Zhongzhou over the years? It hasn't changed, and how has it become. You and I don't know."
Cheng Engong: "After the second child went to Zhongzhou, he mentioned Yeyang when he wrote a letter. However, the second child said that although the kid was a little more stable, he was still the same as when he was a child, he was mad and disobedient, and he did not treat him very much. respect."
The queen mother thought for a while: "You immediately write to Zhengyuan and let him explore Yeyang's bottom. If the Lord Xiao of Northern Xinjiang is really Yeyang, then he is not in Zhongzhou now. If so."
The Queen Mother squinted her eyes: "If Master Xiao is really Yeyang, it will be a little difficult for us to use him to contain the Ma Family. Some things have to be re-planned."
Cheng En Gong nodded, and after leaving the palace, he sent a secret letter to Jiang Zhengyuan in Zhongzhou.
Not only the Jiang family, but the people of the Eight Kings also sent a letter to Zhongzhou, letting their people inquire about Xiao Yeyang's situation.
