every spring [comprehensive]

It was still severe winter when I went to Shengjing, and it was already early spring and February when I returned.

In the south of the Yangtze River, the flowers are blooming like brocades, and even along the banks of the Yellow River, it is time for the apricot pistils to bloom. However, the weather in the northern part of Saibei is high and cold, and the cold air is still unbearable.

On the way back, the industrious Kangxi did not neglect state affairs, and took advantage of the evening rest to convene his confidant ministers to discuss this year's provincial taxation and the imperial examinations that will be held in three months. When he stood up to loosen his muscles and bones, he heard the cry of an eagle outside, and he knew that the sea dongqing raised by Jian Ning must have returned.

Kangxi stepped out of this temporary resting place, and looked at the sky, and sure enough, a big eagle landed steadily in the courtyard next door, and there was a lot of exclamation in the courtyard, Kangxi said to the left : "I'm tired of discussing things, let's go, let's also take a look at the princess's sea dongqing."

At that time, this sea dongqing passed by the top of the Forbidden City and became a live target for Jianning to test the gun. After the injury on its wing healed, Jianning boiled the eagle himself and trained this bird of prey to be an obedient pet. , but even if it recognizes its owner, its wildness and pride will not change. Except for feeding it with her own hands, it will never eat anything given by others. This is a stranger who will peck off a piece of his meat.

On this trip north, Jianning took it with him.Jianning feels sorry that it has been kept in captivity in the palace. Usually it is impossible to keep it in captivity. The emperor, empress dowager, and those delicate concubines and princes live in the palace. They are all women and children. If it accidentally hurts anyone, Enough to kill it.If you let it fly outside the palace to look for food and rob the people's livestock, it will make people even more troublesome.So when he arrived at the grassland, Jianning could really let go and let it fly freely. The eagle was having fun, and sometimes he couldn't see it for a few days. Even when he came back, he was full and satisfied. look.Sometimes it even brings back little "surprises".

As soon as Kangxi entered Jianning's courtyard, Kangxi and the few people behind him were stunned, and they were all shocked from ear to ear, especially some civil servants who "have never seen the world"!

This yard is really a mess. The yards used by the local officials to entertain the royal family and nobles are very neat and tidy, but the scene of the yard here is unbelievable!

On the blue bricks in the yard, on the trunk of the locust tree in the yard, and on the walls of the yard, there are bloodstains everywhere!

There are also two gazelle carcasses that were randomly discarded on the ground by who knows. Anyone who saw this scene at first glance would be stunned there.

While they were in shock, Jianning was not idle, pointing at Haidongqing's forehead and teaching it, "You are so hard-winged, you don't obey discipline! Every time you eat, you get dirty and don't like it." Forget it, I have to turn my yard into a crime scene! You can really make trouble! When will so much blood be cleaned up? After we leave, the people here may not know how to arrange me. Maybe they will think that I kill people like hemp, and spread the nickname of a bloodthirsty princess..."

Hearing her accusations and complaints, Kangxi finally understood that Hai Dongqing not only foraged for food by himself, but also brought food back to his master with a very good conscience.Also know to get fresh!That's why the half-dead gazelle was smashed to death when it was directly above the yard, so blood was spattered everywhere.

Several ministers were also speechless in their hearts. This... I really don't know how to say it.

Kangxi suppressed a smile and said, coughing to show his presence: "It's not easy for Xiao Hei, it only knows how to feed back to its master, and it doesn't care whether it will dirty the yard, so don't blame it."

Jianning turned around and blessed the body, "See Brother Emperor."

"I have seen Her Royal Highness."

Jianning said: "Don't be too polite. You have also seen that I am in a mess and I am looking for someone to clean up. I can't entertain the adults here. Please don't mind."

All the ministers hurriedly said: "Don't dare to bother the princess."

Kangxi said: "Let the servants clean up. If there are not enough people, I will also transfer the servants from my side. This yard smells of blood, and there is no way to live. Jianning will go with me. This will make people feel biased." The palace will clean it up for you."

Li Dequan just wanted to say that the side hall had already arranged for several concubines to live there, but then he thought, even if he said it, the emperor would let them move to another place. In terms of Sacred Heart, who can compare with the three princesses, so he decided not to do anything more, just go straight to the palace. In response, I went down to make arrangements.

It doesn’t matter where Jianning lives, so he didn’t worry too much about it. When he saw Mo Ju brought the eagle cage, Jianning said, “Don’t tie it up, let it fly for a few more days, and when you get back to the Forbidden City, you’ll be fine.” Had to be trapped."

Zhou Peigong looked at Jianning with some concern, and felt that she meant something. After all, he had been together day and night for three or four years. It can be said that he was very sensitive to Jianning's emotions.

The two courtyards were being tidied up. Jianning sat in Kangxi's room now. She said to Kangxi, "Brother Emperor, I want to tell you something. I hope you will allow me."

"what's up?"

"I want to bid farewell to you. Instead of returning to the Forbidden City with Yu Jia, I will take another route. I want to walk around and have a look around. I won't delay for a few days."

Kangxi was surprised, "Where do you want to go, what do you think, you don't want to come back?"

Jianning said: "It's not so exaggerated. The Forbidden City is my home. How could I run away from home? It's just that I suddenly don't want to go back so soon."

Kangxi frowned and said, "Then how and how long do you want to go?"

Jianning said: "I want to take Yingchuan and return to the capital via Kaifeng. It's just a circle, and the time will be up in a month." Jianning joked: "Of course, if the emperor's brother can give me Fang Shangfang Baojian, I can also help you kill corrupt officials and get rid of filthy officials along the way, so that the common people will be grateful for the emperor's grace wherever the imperial envoys go."

Kangxi thought for a while and said: "Well, I will go with you, it must be easier to use than Shangfang's sword, so I called a few guards and ministers, a group of up to twenty people, and it's not eye-catching, and it's convenient to do things, just treat it as a sword. Is Weifu going out to inspect the people's sentiments?"

"Ah?" Jianning just wanted to take the opportunity to have fun outside, so Kangxi, who has always put state affairs first, would also join in the fun.

Seeing her surprised expression, Kangxi knew what she was thinking, and said, "I know you are not happy during this trip to Shengjing, and I also want to accompany you. I will go back when you have had enough fun."

When he said this, it seemed that Jianning was a little ignorant, how could he waste the time of the emperor who was busy with everything because of her alone, "This... I'd better not go."

Kangxi said: "It's okay, there's nothing serious about it recently, and Chen Tingjing and his group of veterans are doing well. I also want to go out for a walk, so I'll let Mingzhu and Mu Zixu hire someone."

So the travel plan that Jianning planned to carry out alone was changed by Kangxi to a small group of people, and if this group of people was released casually, it would be worth the feudal officials.Kangxi took Zhou Peigong, Mingzhu, Xiong Cilu, Suo'etu, and Fei Yanggu.There are also guards Mu Zixu, Wu Dan and others.Jianning only brought one Mo Ju, if she wasn't afraid that not bringing any of them would be too unconventional, she could take good care of herself by herself.

As for Tu Hai, before Kangxi left Shengjing, he returned to Sichuan to continue serving as General Fuyuan.Although Wu Sangui was dead, the war was not completely over. His grandson Wu Shipan still retreated to a corner of Yunnan with thousands of remnants to fight to the end, because he knew that even if he surrendered, he would die.Kangxi can pardon Geng Jing’s loyal descendants and allow them to commit crimes and meritorious deeds to crusade against Wu Sangui’s army, but he punished Wu Sangui’s group severely. There is absolutely no other way except cutting the grass and roots. Kangxi let Tuhai continue to lead troops to wipe out the remnants .

Moreover, Jianning knew the inside story, and there was a rift between the monarch and his ministers because of Tu Hai's unauthorized handling of Wang Fuchen.Tu Hai failed to bring Wang Fuchen back to the capital according to Kangxi's secret decree, but because of the righteousness of a friend, he revealed to the king that Kangxi had murderous intentions. die.Kangxi failed to ask the treacherous Wang Fuchen face to face, and Tu Hai, who had messed up things, should be rewarded and punished, so he simply sent him out of Beijing.

The weather gets warmer as you go south. After passing the Xifengkou, the post roads are already green with willows and the tender grass is fragrant.Returning from Baishan Heishui at first glance, it really feels like changing the world.Jianning and Kangxi withdrew their chariots a long time ago, and they talked and laughed on horseback. Sometimes they falconed and hunted, and sometimes they visited small shops in the market, visited folk customs, and had their own post stations along the road to meet them. They were very happy.

It was noon on this day, and because there was no way to go to the village or back to the store, Kangxi asked Jianning: "Are you hungry? Do you want the guards to bury the pot for cooking?"

Jianning said: "A little bit." She looked over from a distance, and as far as she could see, there was a house in the distance, because she saw the words on the cover, Jianning smiled and said: "It seems that we don't need to do it ourselves. , there is a small shop in front.”

Although Kangxi himself didn't see him, and didn't suspect him, he rode his horse parallel to Jianning and continued forward, "Okay, then go ahead and settle down."

Jian Ning said: "The tone is not small. The sign says 'Taibai smells the fragrance, get off the horse, come here and don't ask about Xinghua Village'. The emperor's brother can taste his family's wine when he arrives."

Kangxi became more interested when he heard this, "Then I really want to see and see."

These emperors and princesses are approachable, and the guards are more comfortable talking.The guard Wu Dan also looked into the distance with his eyes wide open and said: "I just vaguely see that there should be a family in front of me. How does the princess know that there is a small shop in front? Could it be that the princess has been here before?"

Although he lowered his voice, Jian Ning could hear him, turned around and smiled at him, startled that she definitely couldn't hear Wu Dan.

Zhou Peigong said: "Back then, among thousands of armies, the third princess was able to find the commander hiding in the rear among the identical armor. Could she still see a small shop wrong? Don't use your eyes to judge the third princess's eyesight." .”

Wu Dan said: "Master Zhou, you were the General of Fuyuan at that time, and you worked with the third princess in the army, so you naturally know this. I am a rough man who was born as a horse thief, and I was lucky enough to work in front of the emperor when I was recommended by Hu Chen. It is impossible See the princess's demeanor on the battlefield."

He said this, but he sighed in his heart. After getting along these days, anyone can see that Zhou Peigong tried his best to protect the three princesses. host.These days, even Mingzhu, who is usually the most mean, is a little cautious when speaking to Zhou Peigong.
