OBS Chapter 289 Is it possible that it would be better if you just said a few words less?
Chapter 289 Is it possible that it would be better if you just said a few words less?
Yinxuan tried to find out the reason for Khan's sudden 360-degree turn in his attitude after several days of indirect questioning.
But he had seen how decisive and swift his second brother, the Crown Prince, could be when he got serious.
and……
Did he call back Zhang Tingyu who was still in mourning for his parents?
No one knew what the two men talked about, but after that, Zhang Tingyu was deprived of his love, ended his mourning period early, and became a third-rank official in the Chancellery of the Imperial Household.
The true confidant of the crown prince.
When he first heard the news, Yinzhen was so shocked that he dropped the cup in his hand: [Ahhh, Zhang Tingyu, the only Han minister in the Qing Dynasty who was worthy of being enshrined in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, Zhang Tingyu, one of the ministers most valued by Emperor Yongzheng. He just entered the Zhanshi Mansion like this and became the right-hand man of the second prince?]
[Oh my god, this world is crazy, the mouse is the bridesmaid for the cat.]
[Yongzheng's important minister actually became the crown prince's confidant. Who would believe this if I told anyone? Poor fourth brother, he lost an arm. Wait, Zhang Tingyu was poached, what about Li Wei, Tian Wenjing, and Ortai? These three confidants that the fourth brother personally promoted, will not be...]
hiss~
Yinxuan gasped, feeling a little bit, oh no, really, extremely, especially sorry for his fourth brother.
A hero with three gangs.
The tax distribution based on land area is so complicated and tedious, and it is bound to offend a large number of people. How can you do it without a few capable assistants?
Prince:! ! !
He subconsciously looked towards his fourth brother, his eyes and eyebrows full of excitement.
Yongzheng's confidant, highly praised by his eighteenth brother.
Just these two factors combined are very unusual. His Zhanshi Mansion and Zuoyou Chunfang had just been taken over, and it was the time when he needed talents.
Ha ha.
The Fourth Prince sneered and mouthed back to him, "Don't even think about it."
With such an important task on our shoulders, who wouldn’t be eager to recruit talented people?
When the two brothers spoke privately afterwards, the Fourth Prince made his attitude clear: If the Crown Prince really wants to snatch the person away, it's not impossible, but you will have to take over the important tasks of allocating land tax and converting land ownership to official duties.
My younger brother will go to the border alone and make contributions on the battlefield in the northwest.
Military failure?
What I mean is that it is precisely because of the shortcomings that they need to be filled!
Just like what the Eighteenth Brother said, as a man, you must learn to challenge yourself. Maybe after a few years of experience, I can become a fierce general.
The prince was angry and said, "Boy, this is not a challenge to yourself, it's clearly an attempt to tire me to death! Okay, okay, I'll give it to you, I'll give it to you, and I won't steal it, okay?"
The Fourth Prince said nothing, but there was clearly a hint of regret in his eyes.
The prince's alarm bells rang.
He hurriedly offered benefits and tried to build friendship with his fourth brother, then ordered people to prepare a banquet and had a heart-to-heart talk with him.
The younger brothers who were good at fighting and fighting all rushed to the battlefield to make achievements. There were not many helpers left, and they couldn't afford to lose the most important one.
The Crown Prince has moved the steps to his feet, so of course the Fourth Prince has to go down.
but……
He pondered for a moment and suggested seriously: "Since it will take some time to start the reform of the land system, and the second brother, the prince, is helping us with the land tax system, can we two brothers work a little harder and let the thirteenth brother go to the northwest to realize his dream of becoming a general?"
Prince:! ! !
It is hard not to envy his deep love and care for Thirteen.
The Fourth Prince only chuckled and said that his Thirteenth Brother was also very sincere to him. As an elder brother, there was not much he could do for him, but he only hoped that he would get what he wanted and have no regrets in life.
In response, the prince expressed envy and said that he had no problem.
But how to convince the old man depends on the Fourth Prince.
The next day, the Thirteenth Prince received a new mission: to lead his troops to the front line to escort the compressed biscuits, alcohol, sutures and other items that had been made overtime. After successfully completing the mission, he could stay at the front line temporarily and lead the escort of troops and horses to participate in the war.
At that time, the Thirteenth Prince was stunned!
He seriously suspected that he had heard it wrong, and even picked his ears in an indecent manner in front of the emperor.
After confirming that everything was correct, he jumped up with joy and said, "Your son obeys your order. Long live the emperor. Your Majesty, rest assured that your son will lead the troops and fight bravely. I will use actual combat results to prove to you that sending your son to the front line is absolutely the right choice."
After expressing his loyalty for a long time, the Thirteenth Prince smiled and asked what had happened and why Khan Ama suddenly changed his mind.
Kangxi loved the prince and had high hopes for him.
But he is not his father, who only has his so-called first son in his heart and ignores the other sons.
Besides loving the crown prince, he also pays close attention to each of his sons.
The Fourth Prince is naturally no exception.
Moreover, he himself had harmonious relations with Fuquan and Changning, and of course he also hoped that his sons would be friendly and respectful to each other.
Therefore, I did not hide anything and directly revealed the answer: "Although you are proficient in both civil and military affairs, you have no shortage of generals on the front line, but there are many things to do in the court. According to my opinion, I am reluctant to let you, a good helper, leave. But your fourth brother persuaded the prince to help, and the two of them took over your affairs so that you can gallop on the battlefield and fulfill your lifelong wish."
When the words "There's not much a brother can do, except hope that his son gets what he wants and has no regrets in life" came out, the Thirteenth Prince was so moved that he cried.
Yinxuan's eyes were also filled with tears: [Tangdi's love is real, Fourth Brother loves her so much! Woohoo, he is so real, I am crying~]
[No wonder later authors have such wild imaginations, with all kinds of father-son relationships, and brothers with the same age difference. I've never seen a CP of Four and Thirteen, because no matter how touching their love is, it's still pure and innocent brotherhood!]
Cough cough cough.
When Kangxi thought of the strange things he had heard over the years, his throat felt itchy.
Soon, coughing sounds were heard one after another in Zhaoren Hall of the Qianqing Palace.
Yin Xuan frowned, "Oh! The weather has been getting colder recently. Did Khan Ama and my brothers catch a cold? Do you want to summon the imperial physician to take our pulses? We can treat any illness we have and prevent it if we don't have any?"
Kangxi and the princes: ...
Is it possible that it would be better if you just spoke less?
But they couldn't say it, nor did they dare to say it. They could only try their best to change the subject, so as to prevent the little one from having wild thoughts again.
Yinxuan didn't understand military affairs, he only knew that swords had no mercy on the battlefield.
Especially since the opponent is good at random firing and has an organized artillery team.
If you are not careful, you may die before you achieve your goal.
So, while Kangxi was discussing various strategies and tactics with several princes, he was distracted thinking about what he should prepare for his Thirteenth Brother to ensure that he would go happily and return safely.
Don’t leave any regrets in your life, and don’t let yourself become the biggest regret for him and Fourth Brother!
The Thirteenth Prince, who was protected by his younger brother, was both happy and sad.
I really want to touch his little head and tell him not to worry, Eighteenth Brother, Thirteenth Brother is very powerful. He has fought tigers and shot bears. Even my father-in-law would praise him as the Desperate Thirteenth Brother.
Others: ...
You should be more careful and stop showing off.
Otherwise, what should we do if we get beaten up by a group of people and our expedition is affected?
