95. The Qing Dynasty, Which Was Worn Like a Sieve (Twenty-Eight)

No one in the court caused trouble, and Yinzhen's supervision of the country handled the government affairs very smoothly. He began to quietly take over power.

Lao Ba was the first to discover his ambition because of his exquisite mind. This was also related to the fact that Yong Zheng no longer concealed it. He thought about it in fear for several days, and one night he quietly went to Prince Yong's Mansion to clarify the matter.

"Fourth brother, Huang Ama and the Crown Prince are leaving for Mobei. What do you think?"

Yinzhen was not surprised at all by his arrival. He ordered Su Peisheng to prepare refreshments, sat across from him, and asked with a slight smile: "What would you do if I did?"

Lao Ba's expression changed again and again. He clenched his hands into fists and struggled to say, "Huang Ama is our father after all."

Yinzhen laughed and said, "Where did my eighth brother go? Emperor Ama is blessed by God and will be unscathed."

"That--"

"Eighth brother, Tsarist Russia has invaded repeatedly. Although the Treaty of Nerchinsk was signed, how many troops did we lose? You have also seen those prisoners of Tsarist Russia. They wore and used sidearms. How do they compare with our cavalry? "

Lao Ba didn't know why he mentioned this. He thought about it carefully and replied: "It's even worse. If it weren't for the geographical advantage and the small number of people, we might not have been able to defeat them so quickly last time."

"That's right. Not only Tsarist Russia, but also many countries in the East and across the ocean. How many things have flowed in from foreign countries in recent years that we have never seen before? They have a small number of people, but their development is several times faster than ours. , Huang Ama only wants to suppress the Han people and is stubborn. If the Eight-Nation Allied Forces attack together in the future, who can resist those powerful firearms? "

Lao Ba was stunned by his heavy expression, as if these were not expectations, but disasters that would definitely happen. He opened his mouth and looked at Yinzhen with disbelief in his eyes. After a long time, he said in a dry voice: "You want to re-employ Han people?"

"Don't we have Han blood in our bodies?" Yinzhen looked back at him steadily, "Old Ba, you are familiar with history books, but which dynasty can last forever? Since dynasties will change sooner or later, how can you let me Would the Aixinjueluo family have harmed the people of the whole country if they ruled longer? When foreign countries widen the gap with us a hundred years later, it will be not only the Qing Dynasty but also the entire country that will be wiped out by artillery fire. They are all innocent, and they cannot do it because of love. Generations of our ancestors cannot afford to commit such a big crime due to Xinjueluo's selfishness."

"You're crazy!" Lao Ba's face was full of shock. He wanted to say that he was wrong to think so. It was all speculation, but for some reason, he didn't refute it with a word. Everyone knows that no dynasty can last forever, but if you think so, what is the meaning of the throne that their ancestors fought so hard to regain? But if foreign countries are really as described by Yinzhen and are surrounded by wolves, the consequences will be unimaginable.

No one knows how rich this land is than them, because their ancestors came here to seize this land. Will the wolf let go after seeing the meat? Never! Tsarist Russia and Galdan are examples, they will definitely fight again!

No prince could calm down immediately after hearing this. Yinzhen did not rush him and asked him to go to the guest room to rest, and then returned to the room himself. But there are bloody guards around the guest room. Lao Ba is a talent, so he will tell the truth. But if Lao Ba cannot be used by him, he must be placed under house arrest. Otherwise, once the news leaks out, all the arrangements he has made over the years may be ruined, and he cannot take risks.

Lao Ba lay in the guest room unable to fall asleep for a long time. He thought of Yinzhen's calmness since childhood. It seemed that since then, no one could see what Yinzhen was thinking. He is also an official, so he knows how difficult it is for Yinzhen to cover everything in the court in recent years, and Yinzhen's power must not be underestimated. He also remembered that Yinzhen seemed to have done many influential things a few years ago, such as Duobao stores, newspapers and periodicals, and logistics. These things are not obvious now, but with Yinzhen today, it is not difficult to imagine that those newspapers and periodicals will be in the future. What a big storm it will cause, Yinzhen has been prepared for it.

He didn't know what foreign countries were like, but judging from the things produced by Duobao store, I'm afraid those technologies were brought back from foreign countries, right? Are foreign countries already so far ahead of them? The most important thing is that foreign armies have firearms. Only the Manchus in their Qing army have firearms, and the Han people are absolutely not allowed to have contact with them. If the time comes for the two sides to go to war, will their ancestors really become sinners?

Throughout the night, Lao Ba had already made a decision. The next day he found Yinzhen again, "Fourth brother, I know I can't stop you, but I hope you don't forget that you also have Manchu blood in your body. Those who rebelled against the Qing Dynasty and restored the Ming Dynasty may not have any good intentions. They are just doing it for It’s just power. Fourth brother, I’m going to travel around the world. If what you say is true, I will help you protect this land and the people on this land!”

Yinzhen showed a pleased expression and patted his shoulder, "Okay, fourth brother saw you right."

Lao Ba has decided it, but there is no need to elaborate on Lao Jiu. He doesn't worry about national affairs, and he doesn't care who is in charge. If Yinzhen wants to be the emperor, then he can do it? As for not having children, they have so many children in the royal family, how can they still be short of successors? So as soon as Yinzhen revealed his intentions to him, he patted his chest and promised his absolute support. No matter how much money he spent, it didn't matter. As long as Yinzhen took over in the future and let him do more business, it would be fine.

A month passed, Yinzhen still handled the affairs of the court steadily, and communicated with Kangxi from time to time, and then, not surprisingly, received the news that the prince was deposed. Kangxi was dissatisfied with the prince. He was impatient during the war, and the prince was not very respectful to him. The more he looked at the prince, the more he disliked him. After a conflict between the prince and the Prince of Zhi, Kangxi angrily deposed the prince and directly ordered people to guard him.

Another month passed, Yinzhen wrote three letters but did not receive a reply. Then some gossip reached the ears of several important officials, saying that Kangxi was assassinated by Galdan and was seriously injured and dying. Now they all panicked. The prince was deposed, the emperor was seriously injured, and the regent Prince Yong was infertile. Did they have to support the fifteenth prince, who was only a few years old, to take the throne?

However, while they were panicking, they also saw an opportunity. If the young emperor ascended the throne, would it be possible for them to get a chance to serve as a regent? When Kangxi ascended the throne at the age of eight, weren't there several regents who managed state affairs? For a while, they had more contacts with the Tong family, trying to test some of their opinions, but they always got nothing. On the contrary, those who surrendered to Yinzhen were glad that they had made the right choice. The fifteenth prince was so young, wouldn't Yinzhen rule the world in the next ten years?

Half a month later, the army won a victory. Dun Beile was brave and good at fighting. He led the army to defeat Galdan and personally cut off Galdan's head. Then suddenly there was news that the emperor had passed away, and then the Prince of Zhi and the prince also disappeared one after another and sneaked back to the capital.

Yinzhen had already laid a net of heaven and earth. When they gathered their men to enter the palace to seize the throne, Yinzhen took everyone down in one fell swoop, which became the most bloodless party struggle in history. The Tong family urgently contacted the Imperial Concubine, hoping that she would stand up and help the fifteenth prince to ascend the throne, but the Imperial Concubine was so sad that she fainted several times and had no intention of doing so. The government was still under the control of Yinzhen.

Su Yuanyuan entered the palace and lived in Chengqian Palace, accompanying the Imperial Concubine day and night. When she felt that the time was right, she told her the truth.

"Aunt, we are wrong to make you sad for so long, but... we have things we want to do, sorry."

The Imperial Concubine raised her hand angrily, but she couldn't bear to let it go, "You! Are you worthy of the emperor's favor to you?"

Su Yuanyuan shed tears from the bottom of her heart for the first time, but looked at her with a firm expression, "I'm sorry, we can't stand idly by, nor can we persuade the emperor. We can only do what we want to do if we get the greatest power. But, aunt, you are right, we have failed your and the emperor's trust, and we are sorry for you."

The Imperial Concubine She turned her face to wipe away the tears on her face, and was silent for a long time before asking: "Are you going to put me and the emperor under house arrest?"

Su Yuanyuan was also silent for a long time, "Aunt, I hope the emperor can go abroad to see that there have been earth-shaking changes outside. It is no longer the scene of congratulations from all directions. They are eyeing us covetously and are all wolfish ambitions. I hope that after seeing us, the emperor will understand us one day. When he goes abroad, I will send people to protect you, but I will not put you under house arrest."

But in China, in order to avoid civil strife, Kangxi can only be put under house arrest, which is the worst result.

The imperial concubine stood up with the help of the bed and said lightly: "I want to see Uya, and the Li and Song you mentioned. I want to know what the future you know is like."

"Okay, I'll take you there."

Su Yuanyuan sent people to take Li and Song to the secret room. Kangxi's secret guards had been controlled by the blood droplets and softened by the muscle powder. After entering the secret room, the Imperial Concubine looked through the confessions of Concubine De while asking someone to bring Li in for questioning.

Li Yunfang suddenly heard the Imperial Concubine asking her how many years she had come from, and immediately her legs went weak and she fell to the ground, looking at Su Yuanyuan in panic. Su Yuanyuan comforted her, "Don't worry, your aunt just wants to know what will happen in the future, just tell the truth. You don't have to worry about your identity, you are not the first time-traveling woman, nor the last one, as long as there is no malice, no one will pursue this matter."

Li Yunfang had a close relationship with her, and she felt much more at ease after hearing this, and she spoke intermittently about what she knew. The first thing to bear the brunt was the demise of the Qing Dynasty and the Eight-Nation Alliance, which plunged China into a purgatory.

The Imperial Concubine's face turned pale when she heard this, and after she finished speaking, she asked someone to call Song and got the same confession. Although what they knew was not detailed enough, it is said that everyone in the future knows about the Eight-Nation Alliance, and many people in the future will curse the rulers of the Qing Dynasty. If it weren't for them, China might be the world's number one power.

She could see that Li and Song had always thought that they had covered up well and had never revealed their identities as time-traveling women, so they were so scared. In other words, the history they knew well was what everyone would learn in the future, and they had no time to make it up, and they made it up so consistently, all of which was true!

Then they said that in the future everyone would have a comfortable house to live in, they would no longer freeze to death or starve to death, there would be no more wars, no more refugees, and no more countless unjust and wrong cases like now, and even women could hold power and be officials and call the shots. What a beautiful future that would be? But it developed only after the country was destroyed and regressed for many years. If it had not been delayed by the Qing Dynasty, if it had not been for the Eight-Power Allied Forces, if it had not been for that tragic history in between, would such a beautiful future have been realized long ago?

The Imperial Concubine couldn't accept it, but she couldn't say anything to blame Yinzhen and Su Yuanyuan. She thought about it for three days with a headache, and finally said to Su Yuanyuan: "I believe Yinzhen can be a good emperor. No matter whether there will be the Eight-Nation Alliance in the future, I believe Yinzhen can govern the country well. As long as he is a good emperor loved by the people, I won't blame him. I will persuade the emperor. I want to take the children with him to go abroad and see those ambitious foreigners together."

Su Yuanyuan nodded, "Don't worry, aunt, one day, you will return safely and see a prosperous scene."
