"Ao, Bai..." Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong said intermittently.

"He personally led an army of 100,000 in Henan and used fire to defeat the bandit camp, which stretched 800 miles."

"The Dian rebels' army of over 800,000 men suffered heavy casualties and was completely defeated. They were routed thousands of miles away and will never again be able to cause any trouble."

"The Yunnan rebels are now fleeing in panic. Oboi is taking advantage of his victory in Henan and pursuing them southward. He will soon capture them alive..."

"That's pretty much it."

"You guys go and discuss this with the Hanlin scholars."

The ministers looked at each other and found that their eyes were full of surprise and suspicion.

According to Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong, the victory of the Qin Dynasty was a great one.

But judging from the current performance of Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong, it doesn't look like they have won a victory at all.

If they had truly won, wouldn't they have jumped for joy, and then held a grand banquet and rewarded their officials?

But now he was holding the newspaper tightly and refusing to pass it to others to read, which looked very suspicious.

"What are you still standing there for?!" Seeing that no one was moving, Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong began to roar.

"Do you still have eyes for me, the emperor?!"

"Yes, your honor." Then everyone dispersed with doubts in their hearts.

Only after everyone had left did Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong's eyes roll back and he fainted.

His hand was tightly gripping the newspaper, showing no sign of loosening.

Before passing out, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong left only one sentence to their personal attendant.

"Hurry, go call the ancestors."

Chapter 796 - Punching the Holy Card

royal palace.

late at night.

The candlelight flickered, as if the future of this great country was as bleak and unclear.

The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, with her white hair and aged face, was holding a rosary in her hand, rooted on the cushion like a dead tree.

"Surprisingly, it has come to this."

she murmured.

"Only two years."

"It's only been less than two years."

Just two years ago, Dacheng's rule was as strong as an iron bucket.

The bandits in the southwest were strangled to death, the pirates on the southeast coast hid on the islands, and the two great powers dominated the world, like a raging fire boiling oil.

But at this moment, a terrible monster emerged from the ravine in the southwest, bringing nightmare after nightmare to Cheng Ting.

Mountains of corpses and blood, piles of heads

Now, the disaster of complete destruction is imminent.

Oboi died in Henan with the last blood of the Eight Banners of Jianzhou, and the Qin Ting lost its last bargaining chip.

It won't be long before the bandits reach the capital city!

At that moment, Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang felt an incomparable sense of absurdity.

It was as if the past few decades of her life were just a huge joke played by fate on her.

"What are you going to do?" asked Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.

No matter how anxious or how much you curse now, it will be of no use.

All they can think about is the current solution.

"Grandson has already thought about it." Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong said without hesitation.

"First, spread fake news of victory to reassure people, then quickly pack up and leave..."

"In the capital," he said sadly.

"Even the soldiers defending the city can't be gathered together."

"I can't stay here any longer."

"Grandfather, you have to prepare too."

"We don't have much time."

"Eastern Tour?" Xiaozhuang lowered her eyes.

"Alright, alright."

"Your royal grandfather was just a vassal king in the Northeast."

"Now I just go back..."

"Ancestor------" Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong said hesitantly.

"I'm afraid I can't go back to the Northeast."

"At least I can't go back for now..."

In order to put together a vanguard battalion that was capable of fighting and daring to fight, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong made things difficult for their good brothers in the Northeast.

Every household was ordered to send several able-bodied men, resulting in countless tragedies of broken families and deaths...

Then, the fish-skinned Tartars who had just been transformed into giant zombies were all sent to Henan by Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong to serve as materials for Shu Yichao to build the Jingguan.

These relatives from my hometown didn't get any benefits from following Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong, but they did suffer a lot of misfortune.

Although they could not be said to be grateful to Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong for their great shortcomings and virtues, they at least hated them to the core.

In this case, going to the Northeast...

He might even die without a burial place.

"So what do you mean?" asked Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.

"Hunting in the north." Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong replied.

"Go to the Mongol tribe."

Although it is incredible, fleeing to the grassland is indeed the best option for Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong now.

First of all, the Mengwu tribe had many in-laws with the Qinting, and they were also the family of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, so they could at least have some face there.

Secondly, the Menggu tribe had just been severely punished by Tu Hai not long ago. After the killing, they still had some residual power. Even if they brought a small number of troops, they could be intimidated.

Of course, the most important thing is that Tu Hai was smart. He did not follow Aobai to chase the bandits, but stayed on the north bank of the Yellow River to wait for news.

As soon as he heard that Oboi was in trouble, he immediately ran away and ran back to the capital in one breath.

This is the only surviving general from the Qin Dynasty.

Third, it is also convenient to hide on the grassland.

Judging from the cruelty and ruthlessness displayed by the King of Dian, even if he returns to the Northeast, I am afraid he will come to wipe out the roots.

Therefore, it is safer to play hide-and-seek on the grassland.

"Since you have made up your mind, I won't say anything." Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang rolled the rosary in her hand.

"But is there enough time?"

"If the bandits travel day and night, they will reach the capital in less than half a month."

"and----

"The Mongols are not that easy to talk to." She said quietly.

"Can you really calm them down?"

Born in the grassland, she naturally knew how cruel and barbaric the laws were in that resource-scarce land, where turning against one's friends was the norm.

With the military strength Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong currently have, I'm afraid...

"I, I'll think about it again." Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong said with a wry smile.

"The plan may need to be further refined."

"But our ancestors,

“There’s no choice anymore.”

Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang was silent for a moment.

"Yes."

"No choice."

"In this case."

"I'll just stay for now."

"Ah?" Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong looked up in surprise.

"I'm old." Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang stared at the roof.

“There’s no way to run around.”

"Taking us with you will only burden you."

"By then, I'm afraid Jianzhou's entire clan will be exterminated."

Emperor Kang Qian:

"Oh, right." Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang looked back at Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong, whose face was ashen.

"You can't bring your concubines with you either."

"You naturally understand the reason."

"Winners need to vent."

"The Former Jin invaded the Song Dynasty, and the Jingkang humiliation caused the Nikans to harbor resentment for hundreds of years."

"If we don't return it in equal measure, I'm afraid the Nikans will never let it go."

"Although it's shameful, it might help the bandits vent their anger."

"That way, things might turn around."

"..."

"Grandfather, I..." Emperor Kangxi and Qianlong wanted to refute, but when he looked up, he only saw the firm eyes of Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang.

Gradually, Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong seemed to have lost their souls and became discouraged.

"Grandson, I understand."

Taoist temple.

"Real person, I..."

Just as Emperor Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong were about to speak, Master Huiling signaled them not to speak.

"I already know your Majesty's intention."

"But it's really strange." Master Hui Ling looked down at the hexagram on the table and muttered.

"This hexagram is not right."

According to previous calculations, theoretically, the prosperity of the Qin Dynasty is long-lasting. Although there are disasters during this period, they are not fatal. This large ship should be able to sail forward steadily in the test of strong winds and huge waves.

But isn't this disaster a bit too big?

The true emperor was forced to flee north, and most of the country fell into the hands of the rebels.

After another calculation, the hexagram still did not change.

It just has nothing to do with reality.
