Chapter 239: Big Brother Knows Your Goodness
Yinzhen was a little hesitant. Although both the palm and the back of his hand were called brother, different brothers are different!
He has a certain understanding of Fourteenth Brother's fighting power and abilities.
big brother...
The most impressive thing is that this guy was the first to go to war as a deputy commander in the 29th year of Emperor Kangxi's reign. As a result, he did not achieve any merit, but fell into Galdan's delaying tactics.
What was originally going to be decided by a single battle was escalated into three expeditions against Galdan.
He was also at odds with Prince Yu, Bo Fuquan.
Don't talk about whether it's merit or not. The blame lies with Prince Yu, who was driven back halfway.
With such a precedent, Yinzhen didn't dare to recommend easily!
[What if Kangxi, the father, really loves his youngest son and agrees? And the eldest brother... wouldn't I be a sinner for all eternity? But the eldest brother is a bit straightforward, and his fighting ability is really explosive. Moreover, over the years, he has been rubbing his hands, training in various ways to avenge his previous shame.]
[It is often said that knowing shame leads to courage. Maybe after learning from the last lesson, he will be more dedicated this time?]
It's just two words: entangled, and it tortured Yinxuan for a long time.
The eldest prince's face turned dark, and the grievance in his eyes was so strong that it seemed to be tangible.
It's been 20 years, why is the 18th brother still looking at his own brother through the crack of the door?
Yin Xuan, who was almost seen through by his gaze, smiled awkwardly and looked at his father for help: "The palms and backs of my hands are all mine, you see..."
Kangxi bent his finger and flicked it on his forehead: "You are such a fat, brave boy, how dare you put the blame on me!"
Yinzhen looked innocent and said, "How can this be called putting the blame on someone? All the land under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the land are his subjects. All these matters should be handed over to Khan Ama, and it is up to you to decide."
You two are talking to each other face to face, so why should I, a middleman, be caught in the middle and get my head exploded?
He didn't say this in his heart, but it was clearly written on his face.
Kangxi:......
Big Brother: ...
The father and son both had their mouths slightly stiffened, and their smiles gradually froze. In the end, between face and the iron hat, the eldest brother still chose the latter.
He knelt down decisively and admitted his mistakes.
A profound analysis and a serious promise. I will definitely learn from my mistakes and never fall into the same trap twice: "If Khan Ama doesn't believe me, please give my son a chance and let him see the outcome on the battlefield."
Kangxi neither said yes nor no.
He just stood there quietly, looking at his eldest son.
This made the eldest prince feel uneasy.
Even though it had come to this, Khan Ama still refused to give him any more chances.
It took a long time, so long that the eldest prince felt his blood run cold. Then he heard his own Khan Ama sighing, "Originally, I have some doubts about whether to use you again because of that previous experience."
"No matter how much you admit your mistakes and correct them, there is nothing better than that. But the use of military force against Dzungar Khanate is related to the stability of the entire Qing Dynasty. You cannot afford to be careless."
The eldest prince felt more and more depressed and said softly, "Yes, son knows he is wrong."
Then Kangxi softened his tone: "Since you know your mistake and the court is really in need of someone, I will give you another chance for Xiao Shiba's sake."
What is a sudden turn of events? What is a bright future?
That's it.
Seeing hope again in despair, the eldest prince was ecstatic and kowtowed on the spot: "My son thanks my Khan Ama. Long live my Khan Ama."
After expressing his gratitude, he picked up Yinxuan, threw him high into the air, and then caught him skillfully.
Yinzhen was so frightened that he didn't even dare to breathe, fearing that if this gentleman made a mistake, his career as the royal favorite would come to an end.
The eldest brother smiled and scratched his little nose: "Look at you, you are so timid, and you still say you want to be a Baturu, how can there be such a timid Baturu? I am just expressing my gratitude and happiness, but I scared you like this."
Ha ha.
[Without saying anything, he threw me into the air. You said you were expressing your gratitude, but I thought you were just trying to exclude others.]
But Yinxuan only dared to say this in his heart.
But he kept waving his hands: "I don't deserve it! My brother didn't say anything, so of course I don't dare to take the credit."
Even though he had just been scolded, the eldest prince still felt a little helpless.
But if it weren't for this little auxiliary star, he would most likely have been locked up in the eldest prince's mansion, giving birth to children like a pig.
Where is the chance to show one's talents, fight on the battlefield, and strive to win a stable position for oneself?
Therefore, no matter how much dark history is exposed.
The eldest prince was also full of gratitude to Yinzhen.
Hearing this, he quickly hugged the little guy again and said, "How can this be called claiming credit? Eighteenth brother clearly tried hard to help big brother to intercede, otherwise, Khan Ama would definitely not be willing to give big brother another chance."
"But……"
"No need to say more, Eighteenth Brother. I remember all your kindness. We are brothers, so we won't say those empty words. We will see each other in the future."
After saying that, he bowed and said goodbye.
We must race against time to learn about Junggar's astronomy, geography, agriculture, military and other related information. We must strive to truly know ourselves and the enemy, and fight a hundred battles without defeat. We must also use facts to prove who is the best at military affairs among the princes.
Liu Yinxuan and Kangxi looked at each other in bewilderment: "Khan Ama, my elder brother..."
Kangxi waved his hand and said, "Let's ignore him. Come on, tell Khan Ama what you and Dai Zi think, and how to completely suppress the firearms of the Dzungars."
Because he was familiar with the original history, Yinzhen had a deep impression of how much Kangxi opposed the development of industry and firearms, and denounced them as gimmicks.
And I am always worried about this.
They were afraid that Kangxi would become suspicious again and still blindly believe in horse riding and archery, thus cutting off the industrial and thermal weapons research that had just begun to develop.
Now that he has shown interest in this area, wouldn't Yinxuan be extremely overjoyed?
He turned into a little teacher on the spot and explained things to him seriously.
No matter what, we must make this cake so good that Kangxi's father can't stop. We need people and money, and actively invest in related research and development.
Kangxi:......
The little guy has worked so hard for the development of the Qing Dynasty. What else can he do as the Khan?
Of course I cooperated with him and pretended to be intoxicated by the aroma of his pancakes.
If you need people, give them; if you need money, give money!
Just like supporting Lao Jiu in engaging in maritime trade.
I firmly believe in my child's ability, and I also believe that the greater the investment, the greater the profit. With the opening of the route, the related profits and taxes will increase significantly, and the court can easily afford the related research and the baggage and food after the war.
Ahhh~
Thousands of miles away, the ninth prince Yinzhen, who had traveled to Southeast Asia and finally met Qian'er, sneezed violently.
The eunuch who was serving beside him hurriedly handed over a cloak and said, "The wind is strong on the sea, you must be careful. The epidemic has only just ended, so you must be careful!"
The Ninth Prince was in a good mood with a fruitful harvest, and rarely did he complain about the little eunuch's noisy behavior.
He is about to be crowned as a prince for the second time, and he finally has some achievements to show for himself!
But as soon as he returned to Xuwen, he felt unwell.
