.It was almost three o'clock, and the eunuch in charge of the study room, Li Dequan looked quietly in the crack in the door. Kangxi was still obsessed with memorials, occasionally taking a few sips of tea. Li Dequan was serving his master for some time. He knew Kangxi's habits and would fall asleep after the third o'clock every day.

Li Dequan tiptoed in and replaced the cold tea on Kangxi's table with a cup of steaming hot. Kangxi was circling the memorials in an effort, but he didn't notice it at all. He picked up the cup and wanted to put it in his mouth. Li Dequan was afraid that Kangxi would be hot, so he hurriedly said, "Your Majesty, be careful, the new one is hot." Kangxi noticed him and smiled and said, "It's still you, the slave, knowing your master's temperament." While holding the cup, he gently blew the heat on it, and took a sip. "Very good, this one is good. Are there any other notes?"

Li Dequan hesitated for a moment. He did receive an expedited memorial just now, but it was too late now. He really wanted the emperor to rest earlier. Kangxi noticed his desire to say something and said with a smile: "What's the matter still hidden from your master? But do you want to deceive the emperor? Be careful and respect the board of the room." Li Dequan then responded: "I just received an expedited memorial from the Grand Secretary Tuhai. Princess Tuhai, do you want to see it now or tomorrow?"

Kangxi said seriously: "Li Dequan, you have recorded it. In the future, no matter how late the front line is, you must present it immediately."

Li Dequan hurriedly replied, "Come on, I'll take it here." He trotted and received the memorial.

Kangxi took the memorial and read only a few lines, then frowned. In addition to reviewing the progress of the war, Tu Hai mentioned that he was currently suffering from serious illnesses and was not strong enough to ask the emperor to issue an order to select another capable person to command troops, so as not to miss the opportunity to fight.

After reading it, Kangxi could not speak for a long time and was in a heavy mood. Later, Kangxi sent an order to the ministers in the study to ask for Etu, Mingzhu, Xiong Cilu, and Zhang Ying immediately came to the palace to discuss matters.

Several ministers were picked up from their dreams, thinking that something big had happened, so they hurriedly changed into full-vested court clothes, stopped sitting in sedan chairs, and arrived all the way. It was dawn.

Kangxi sat in the upper study room, looked at the ministers with nervous expressions and said, "Li Dequan, give him a seat, give him a request to the pearls, Xiong Tu, and Zhang Yingcha."

Several ministers looked at each other and after thanking each other, they all held their own cups and waited for Kangxi's instructions.

Kangxi handed the memorial to Soetu and circulated it. After reading it, the ministers were moved. Kangxi said slowly: "I just asked the central army who sent the memorial. Linzhou (Tuhai) suddenly became seriously ill this time. He said that he was afraid that he would not be able to return it for a long time. I have issued a sage to call him back and ordered the Imperial Hospital medical officer and several Imperial Physicians to go and accompany him quickly. On the day of arrival, I will personally welcome Linzhou. In addition, let's discuss and see who else in the court will take over the position of General Fuyuan, fight this final battle for me, and the court."

Several ministers were very proud when Tuhai went on a war, and when they thought about his present, they couldn't help but feel a little sad.

Kangxi lowered his eyelids and looked very sad, saying, "I am in the same mood as you. But the three armies should not be without commanders for a day. I will plan carefully for me to see who is suitable?"

At this moment, a person's name flashed quickly in Xiong Cilu and Zhang Ying's heart, but hesitated for a moment, but he didn't say it out. "Zhou Peigong", the most shining name in the battle. Tuhai's left and right hands, acted with the style of a Confucian general without losing his courage. He broke into Tongguan alone and fought against many scholars. He did not spend a single soldier or a sword to surrender Wang Fuchen. He planned and was the biggest contributor to the Tuhai Army's repeated battles.

However, it was Zhou Peigong, who was just a Han man. If he strongly recommended him to take over the position of General Fuyuan, it would not only set a precedent for Han officials to lead troops, but also handed over the power of restraint and several provinces to him. I am afraid that not only would the full court be in an uproar, but Kangxi might not be able to rest assured. So at this time, both Han officials were determined to be the tenet of silent words.

Soetu thought for a while: "What do you think Prince An? Prince An is a noble prince of the emperor and is brave and good at fighting. I think it can be taken." Kangxi thought for a while and shook his head and said, "I think it's inappropriate. Prince An, Prince Kang is still fighting outside. The soldiers are tired. It's not appropriate to send him." Mingzhu took advantage of the situation and said, "What about Prince Shun? I think Prince Shun has the talent of generals." Kangxi sneered and said, "When Le Jin takes Yunnan, my Qing Dynasty will probably be squandered to the point where I even sold it to the Qing Palace to pay off his debts. The rebels didn't see him taking a few, but Sister Yao raised a nest for me." Mingzhu was defeated and said, "When I promised, I dared not make any more noises.

Kangxi closed his eyes for a moment, and suddenly his eyes were bright and he said, "I really want to go out in person to lead my Eight Banners athletes to wipe out the remnants of Wu." Xiong Cilu was shocked when he heard this, and quickly knelt down and advised, "Your Majesty, you can't." Zhang Ying was so anxious that he kowtowed several times, saying, "The capital is important, the emperor should not stay away, and the world is settled, and everything is waiting for development. Daily reports are constantly reported, and all the emperor's holy judgment is needed." Soetu knelt down and persuaded, "The thief is weaker and the emperor is really hard to go far away." Only Mingzhu was reprimanded just now, and without saying a word, he just leaned over and knelt down.

Kangxi sighed and said, "Well, Dunfu (Zhang Ying's name), I said, you should follow your intentions. Prince Kang Jieshu, Prince An Yuele worked abroad for a long time, summoned him to return to the capital and increased his two salary. Prince Shuncheng County Prince Le Er Jin, Prince Jian Labu, Beizi Dong'e, Beile Shangshan, General Barbu Zhuman Shushu, etc., who worked for the army to squander the salary, and misled the country and the people, all the departments discussed the punishment. Bei Zi Zhangtai was appointed as the general of Dingyuan Pingkou, and served as the post of Yuele, and the governor of Huguang Cai Yurong was appointed as the general of Suiyuan, and controlled the advancement of Han soldiers. Zhao Liangdong was appointed as Yun, Gui's governor, and the commander of Sichuan troops to fight. Bei Zi Laita was appointed as the general of Pingnan, governor of Fujian, and Guangdong troops attacked. He ordered Tuhai, Zhou Chang (Zhou Peigong) to return to the court immediately, and I have another reward. Soetu, you and the Ministry of Rites will take charge for me, and I will leave the capital ten miles away to welcome Tuhai."

Zhang Ying wrote like a flying pen. In less than a short while, he drafted the decree and asked, "Master, are these decrees clearly issued or not?"

Kangxi thought for a while and said, "I would like to praise Prince Kang and Prince An, as well as Tuhai's clear and clear decree to all the governors and governors. I also want them to have a better memory. I am not so easy to fool."

Several ministers took the order and went to take charge without expressing their opinions. When the two Han officials walked out of the study, they had a thought in their minds, but they did not dare to think deeply: "Although this emperor said that the Manchu and Han family were actually not trusting the Han officials. He transferred his Duke Pei of Zhou and scattered his soldiers everywhere, which had eliminated the future. The future of Duke Pei of Zhou is worrying."

Soetu has been busy with the suburbs these days, and when he walks, he just bows his hands and goes by, and when he sees people, he just rushes by. He is busy, but his heart is full of pride. Although Mingzhu sneered at the court meeting, the emperor gave himself such a glorious matter, which means that the holy family has not been reduced. Therefore, Soetu even sets up a heavy reward in his own mansion and wants his subordinates to do it together, striving to make this errand work properly.

On this day, Soetu received a report from the Ministry of Rites, saying that Tuhai, Zhou Peigong and the 500 soldiers accompanied by the army were approaching Luohe Post. Soetu hurriedly ordered his family to change his clothes and quickly went to the palace to report. He hurried to the Ganqing Palace and was about to hand over the sign to invite him, but Li Dequan smiled and shouted: "Suo Xiang, I'm sorry for me, please take a closer look, have you fallen into something?" Soetu followed his eyes and looked at him, and couldn't help but panic. When he came, he came too quickly and forgot to hang the court beads. This is serious, but the fault of the former king's fault. Even if the emperor did not give a heavy responsibility, it is inevitable to have a meal.

Soetu smiled a little awkwardly and said, "Thank you, Eunuch Li, please help me, borrow a string of court beads for use." Li Dequan made a haha, took out a string of bees from the room next to him, and said, "Suo Xiang killed the slave. Suo Xiang used this bead to reward the slave." Soetu hurriedly hung the court beads, then pulled out a fifty taels of dragon head silver bill from the sleeve and handed it to Li Dequan. Li Dequan pretended to refuse, but he took it with a smile on his face.

After handing over the sign, he called in. Soetu reported the preparations to Kangxi in detail. Kangxi also asked very carefully. Finally, Kangxi said, "I must do this very well. I want everyone in the world to see how I treat the heroes. I want to be an example of the king and ministers who are familiar with Tuhai. I see you diligently and dedicatedly this time. What I want is a loyal and honest minister like you. Moreover, I also hope that you can teach the prince well in the future. Well, I will issue an order to the imperial kitchen to reward you with a meal and let them deliver it to your mansion. You should also say you are too tired. Tomorrow, I will go to welcome Tuhai and Peigong with me." Soetu got a big lottery, and his heart was as sweet as drinking honey. Sitting in the green sedan chair of four people, and humming a small song excitedly.

According to the system, this time, the royal family and the prince must also follow. The next morning, Yinzhen followed the brigade out of the palace gate, and his carriage followed the third prince. This was his first time out of the Forbidden City. He also turned around and looked back. The road was covered with loess along the way, and the royal majesty was fully demonstrated. Soetu had a complete set of third-class public garments, and rode a horse to lead the front, being the front driver, followed by the imperial front duo book:

Five pairs of horses, twenty balls, twenty flags, ten spears, five pairs of splashes, ten pairs of big swords, four crank yellow umbrellas, eight straight handles, two red umbrellas, two blue umbrellas, two white umbrellas, six embroidered dragon yellow fan, six golden primitive fan, six embroidered dragon red fan, four colorful phoenix red fan, two pairs of my staff, four leopard tail guns, two pairs of lying melons, and two pairs of standing melons. Behind the followers, the 54 canopy holders, four of nine dragon crank yellow and twenty straight handles, are arranged continuously. Then, the palace servants hold banners of various colors, including charity phoenixes, phoenixes, phoenixes, cranes, peacocks, yellow swans, white pheasants, red birds, transformed insects, singing herons, and singing kites. Those based on the patterns of spiritual beasts include the roaming lions, colorful lions, white zes, lemons, red bears, yellow bears, evil spirits, rhinos, heavenly horses, and heavenly deer.

Sixty-four Luanyi Guards in yellow jackets followed one after another, surrounded by the golden chariot that Emperor Kangxi was riding. Kangxi sat upright on the chariot. There were guards holding big swords, bows and arrows, and leopard tail guns, each with thirty people. Four people holding lotus halberds in their hands.

In the queue, Mu Zixu, Langqin and Wu Dan were wearing bright yellow jackets, with their heads from the second-rank top. Behind the top, there were a flower feather with eyes, and followed with swords. One man holding a yellow gua in front of the hall, and four people holding a pure whip. Between the canopy, except for ten horses with ceremonial horses, there were thousands of guards riding horses. At the same time, according to the Ministry of Rites, the 'Victory Order' was pronounced."

When he arrived at the place, Kangxi sat in a specially built pavilion. Several princes stood in line and waited. The prince was in front of him, with the eldest prince, the third prince, and Yinzhen following him, followed by the prince, the prince, Beile, and Beizi. According to Kangxi's request, the prince and the princes and the princes were all kneeling to greet him.

At noon, the corners suddenly sounded, and dozens of sabre captains lined up in the distance, stomping the road made of loess, rustling loudly. Then, five red-clothed cannons dragged by thirty mules rumbling by. These mules were all strictly trained and stepped on drums when walking, which made the road rise up with dust, which made people stunned.

When Yinzhen raised his head and stared at him intently, he saw that the army had already come out. Eighty dragon flags, led by eighty burly men, followed by eighty burly dragon curved covers, one colored beige, with only two last two sides, one green and one purple. He knew this was called "Cuihua Purple Covers". Two teams of soldiers walked calmly behind the Huagai. In front of them were eight door flags: two golden drum flags, two Cuihua flags, and four golden flags. Behind the team, there were police.

One side of the flags, one hundred and twenty soldiers held golden locks, lying melons, standing melons, locking axes, big swords, red stirrups, and yellow stirrups. Thirty-two military academys came over with guarding the chariots. The chariots were made very wide, and four generals of the chariots stood at four corners on the car. They were all wearing second-grade uniforms, yellow jackets, holding sword hilts, and raised their heads and chests. The chariots in the car were more than two meters high, red tassels, bright yellow borders, and blue backgrounds, flying, and eleven large golden characters were written on it:

The picture of the Grand Secretary’s Qinshi Fuyuan General

The flag was particularly dazzling under the sunlight. At the back of the chariot, we saw Tuhai's central army ceremonial guards. Ten imperial guards in yellow jackets rode horses first, and behind them were dozens of central army escorts, carrying the sword of the emperor Shangfang, holding the bright yellow axe, surrounded by a carriage. The curtain of the carriage was lifted up, and the general Tuhai sat in it in full armor. Next to the carriage, there was a middle-aged man in his thirties riding a horse with his face as a knife carving, his skin was dark, but he did not lose his bookish spirit. He was wearing fourth-grade clothing, but there was indeed a three-eyed peach feather on the top. Yinzhen knew that this must be the first Confucian general of the Kangxi Dynasty, Zhou Chang and Zhou Peigong, who is now under the senatorial tent for Tuhai.
