The Unjust System and My War-Crazy Self

For Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong in the capital, this was simply a nightmare within a nightmare.

Capital.

“Asshole!!”

"Asshole ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!

Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong roared crazily.

The ground was littered with broken porcelain pieces and steaming tea. The palace maids, guards, and eunuchs standing by were all trembling with fear.

Outside the palace, the body of the palace maid who was beaten to death on the spot for a minor offense was still warm.

Hong Chengchou is such a dog slave!" Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong naturally didn't care about the lives of these ants.

What he cares about is another unprecedented defeat in the south!

"I will kill his children, I will kill his disciples, I will kill all his clansmen..." Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong roared.

"At the beginning, we vowed that we could stabilize the situation in the southwest."

"I trusted him, so I ordered him to lead an army of over 100,000 southwards."

"I bestow upon him the banner of the Son of Heaven, I bestow upon him the dragon robe and jade belt, I bestow upon him the governorship of seven provinces..."

“What’s the result?

"Is this how he repays me?!"

Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong's chest heaved violently, and his breathing made a sharp grunting sound like that of an old bellows.

News has been received from the war in the south.

They spent over a million taels of silver, nearly emptying the national treasury and the internal resources, and raised a hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver to support and raise elite troops, but they were all wiped out on the battlefield of Jingxiang!

Officials at all levels used harsh performance appraisals time and again, forcing countless farmers and tenants to death to obtain the guns, weapons, food, fodder, horses and vehicles that they had extorted.

Completely vanished!!

Even more terrifying was the loss of nearly 200 million of the Jianzhou Eight Banners' elite troops!

In less than a year, Shu Yichao had wiped out nearly 30% of the men of Jianzhou's Eight Banners!

The capital city is now filled with shrill wails.

Day and night, people were crying and wailing in despair.

Now, every family has fathers and sons, brothers who died in battle.

Many women in Jianzhou were not only filial to their fathers, but also filial to their husbands.

There were even families where all the male members had died, leaving only a group of miserable and desolate women, who looked at the spirit tablets and cried.

But no matter how Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong cursed, they could not change the current situation.

On the Jingxiang battlefield, Shu Yichao had already captured Xiangyang and Wuchang, and completely took control of the war.

Next, whether to attack Jiangnan or directly attack the capital is up to him.

As for the northwest, Li Laiheng also led his troops to successfully capture Hanzhong, and then marched into Gansu and Liang.

He was originally from Shaanxi and was quite familiar with the environment in that area. Even with the Jianzhou Eight Banners in charge, the northwest was in danger...

After Shu Yichao's series of great victories, the anti-wrong movement, which had been dormant, once again burned fiercely.

Hebei, Shandong, Henan, Shanxi, Shaanxi...

There are civil unrests and uprisings everywhere.

Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong now seemed to be sitting on a brazier!

How to do?

What should I do?

"Plop." Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong collapsed dejectedly on the dragon throne.

"Big things, go."

Turbid tears rolled out from the corners of Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong's eyes.

Ruined.

Daxuan is finished.

Now there are only 70,000 to 80,000 combat soldiers left in the entire Xian army.

With so few people, we need to be on guard against Mengwu, keep watch over the northwest, station troops in the Central Plains, and protect Liaodong....

I can't muster any strength at all.

Next, Dacheng must conduct a comprehensive strategic contraction.

I'm afraid everything south of the Yellow River will be abandoned.

"The empire that the late emperor fought so hard for is just gone like that?" Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong sobbed.

"How can I face my ancestors in the future?"

Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong now feel very tired, extremely tired.

After Emperor Shunzhi died, he was not necessarily the one to succeed him.

But he happened to be infected with the plague and then miraculously recovered.

In this way, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong, who would not die young, were pushed to the throne.

But he never imagined that this most honorable position in the world would be so hot!

Just when he was drowsy.

A close minister walked in cautiously and whispered a few words to Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong.

"Oh?" Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong finally came back to their senses after hearing his words.

"Have Buruni's troops assembled?"

“That’s good, that’s good.

When Changting founded his country, he tried to win over the Mongols to suppress the people of the Central Plains, while at the same time he tried to win over the people of the Central Plains to check and balance the Mongols.

Therefore, the alliance with the Mongols has always been a top priority of the imperial court's policy, and both sides have large-scale intermarriages.

Because the military forces of the Qing Dynasty suffered heavy losses one after another, they were unable to suppress even some rebellions that were close at hand, so Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong had to allocate some Mongolian cavalry.

"Let them go quickly..."

Before Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong gave any order, the close minister looked embarrassed and hesitated.

"But…"

"It seems that Buruni is not here to rescue the king.

“!!!” Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong’s eyes widened instantly.

“What are you talking about?

"...Your Majesty." The close minister swallowed his saliva.

"I have heard it clearly."

"Buruni's troops are heading towards the capital, and it doesn't look like they are going to suppress a rebellion.

"And the princess who married in sent someone to report that Buruni had been conspiring with the local tribal chiefs and lamas to start a rebellion a while ago.

"He's here to take advantage of the chaos and force his way into the palace!

......

"Your Majesty." Seeing that Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong were stunned on the spot, the close minister panicked and hurriedly swore an oath.

"Every word I say is true. If there is even a single falsehood, I will be struck by thunder from heaven!

Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong still remained silent.

"...Your Majesty!?" This close minister was completely panicked. He knelt down and kowtowed hurriedly.

"There are no more soldiers defending the capital. The situation is extremely urgent. I hope Your Majesty will make a decision quickly.

Finally, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong spoke.

"Draft an edict."

"Hmm?" The minister kneeling on the ground didn't hear clearly.

"Didn't you hear me talking about drafting an edict?" Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong smashed another cup of tea on the face of their close minister.

"Yes, I obey your order.

"From now on..." Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong closed their eyes tiredly.

His words came out from between his teeth, word by word.

It seemed that every word exhausted all the energy of Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong.

"Moving the capital

He said unwillingly.

"Sheng Jing."

But at this moment

An old but powerful voice suddenly sounded outside the hall.

“I don’t agree

Chapter 748 - Southern Ming Tradition

“Knock, knock, knock…”

Along with the sound of a cane knocking on the floor, an old lady, whose hair was mostly white but still energetic, walked into the palace, surrounded by a group of palace maids and guards.

It was Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.

"Grand Ancestor?" Seeing that it was Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang who came in person, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong hurriedly stood up to greet her.

"Aren't you feeling well?"

"Why come here in person?"

When the news from the south reached the capital, Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, who had been frightened once before, was immediately furious and fell down.

Then there was another round of first aid and recuperation...

But as things stand, this empress dowager, who has experienced many ups and downs, is still holding on.

"Hmph." Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang couldn't help but snort coldly after hearing the voice of Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong.

"If I hadn't come..."

"You should just run away."

"Moving the capital to Shengjing, you'd think of that!"

"What? You're throwing away the legacy of our ancestors?

"What are you talking about, ancestor?" Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong's face was full of bitterness.

"How could my grandson ever want to give away the kingdom that our ancestors painstakingly built?"

“It’s just…

"The bandits have already captured Jingxiang.

If they advance, they can directly attack the capital; if they retreat, they can capture Jiangnan.

"There is also the disease of Buruni between the elbow and armpit -

"This capital, this capital, it is really impossible to protect it.

"Hmph!!" Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang continued to walk forward, and Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong hurriedly helped Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang to sit down.
