Chapter 113
It took about two days for De Zhu to write back the letter. At the beginning, he wrote greetings to His Royal Highness, how he stood out in Ninggu Pagoda, and how he managed to sew people.
When I first started sewing, life was difficult. My uncle at home accidentally cut a big gash in his arm. Seeing that the blood flow continued, and if he continued to delay, he would die. Then he gritted his teeth and closed the hole with a needle Sew it on.
Ningguta is a bitter place. Everything here is primitive and backward. It needs to rely on people's hands to create living conditions. Even doctors are rare people here.
De Zhu thanked Yinfeng again, and said in the letter: Although Imperial Physician Lu appreciated the slaves, he had no intention of accepting slaves as apprentices. After all, the imperial physicians in the Imperial Hospital took apprentices, and they brought doctors who had gone out of the palace.He was willing to say a few words, and the servant was already very grateful.Later, I heard that the slave came out of His Highness's palace. Although Imperial Physician Lu didn't say anything, he actually taught the slave as an apprentice.
This imperial physician is a descendant of a master of medicine, and what has been passed down to this day is the experience left by the descendants of the genius doctor Hua Tuo. With the guidance of Imperial Physician Lu, the servant has entered the door, learned to distinguish the internal organs of others, and learned the meridians of human arms .
It has been three years, and De Zhu has a lot to say to Yin Reng.He is unfamiliar with life and place here, and although people respect him and make him feel an unprecedented sense of accomplishment, his heart is as restless as duckweed.Seeing Yinreng's clean and refreshing handwriting now, and imagining His Royal Highness writing letters to him seriously, De Zhu couldn't help but miss the good old days when he had a good meal with His Royal Highness in Yuqing Palace.
Ah, there is also Tom, who is full of fur and will not get angry no matter how you touch it. I wonder if he still remembers himself?
After writing, De Zhu could only tell the messenger soldier who came to deliver the letter with apology: "I'm afraid I have written a lot, and I still need to think about it for a while, and I don't know if it can be sent..."
The messenger soldier said with a smile: "Doctor De Zhu is serious. As long as it is not goods weighing tens of catties, a few letters, no matter how many and heavy they are, will not affect the galloping speed of the horse. Just write."
Therefore, De Zhu wrote down what he saw and heard in Ninggu Pagoda and Longxing River City.
Your Highness, you may not know that the frontier people living in Longxingjiang City are of various nationalities, some of them come from different tribes, they can barely communicate with each other, but they still enjoy helping each other with hand gestures.
The life here is poor, but the folk customs are extremely simple. Maybe it is because the northern barbarians always invade here from time to time. The people here, even women, will fight the enemy with a kitchen knife in their hands. The children here have been raped since childhood. Teach where to flee when the enemy invades, and who to find to help them.I don't know how many lives have been lost in this inseparable homeland, but even so, the people here still love it.
After General Sabusu’s garrison arrived in Aihui, people felt much more at ease, perhaps because they knew that the imperial army was protecting them. When rebuilding the house this time, they worked harder and worked together to repair the damaged city wall.
The slaves rescued a Buryat Mongolian. Their ancestors used to graze on the other side of the Longxing River. There used to be a fertile prairie and a lake rich in aquatic products. People named the lake "" Baikal".
Later, the northern barbarians invaded and occupied their pastures, and used their ancestors and fathers as slaves to force them to surrender.Since then, the Buryat Mongols have been split into two halves, half of which were forced to surrender. They accepted the rule of the northern barbarians on the other side of the Longxing River and were forced to work as slaves. owned by the owner.
The Buryats who refused to accept the Northern Man escaped from that place, crossed the river to the east of the Longxing River, lived with the people on the border, and became a new tribe.
The man saved by the slave was the Buryat Mongol who fled to the border to live. When he was being rescued, he would always say something in his nightmares. "Buryatia will never be a slave" means.
Saipan said that the Buryat Mongols wanted to seek help from the Qing Dynasty, and he also wanted to rescue his people, but the land of Lake Baikal was farther away from the Longxing River, than the land of the Northern Barbarians. Buchu is still further to the west.
From Lake Baikal, to Nerchinsk, to the now-occupied city of Yaksa, they have repeatedly attacked Longxingjiang City in recent years.
Although the slave doesn't understand the important affairs of the country, but he is at the border, smelling the desolation here, and seeing too much life and death, the slave also has hidden worries in his heart.
It took more than ten years for the northern barbarians to slowly erode a large area of the border of the Qing Dynasty. If even Longxingjiang City was taken away, then the Liaodong area of the Qing Dynasty would be exposed to the eyes of the enemy.They are greedy, like uncooked wolves, and they will never be satisfied. They will only spend decades little by little, expanding their territory and enslaving the local people.
Fortunately, the Qing army has already stationed in Aihui, with General Sabusu present, and the leaders of various tribes near the Longxing River working together, they will surely be able to defend Aihui and Longxingjiang City.
Since there is food, people here can rely on barter and purchase to eat enough, and they no longer have to eat wild vegetables and fruits.
Two days later, De Zhu delivered the thick stack he had written to the messenger soldier, and the messenger soldier took it with a smile: "It seems that Doctor De Zhu misses the capital very much."
"I miss my master," De Zhu said deeply.
His Highness and the cat master are both his masters.
The messenger soldier nodded in understanding. This doctor came from the capital. Of course, he is a talent trained by the royal family. He must have a lot of connections behind him.
"Doctor, don't worry, this letter will be safely delivered to your master," the messenger soldier assured, wrapped the credit cloth, then wrapped it with a layer of oiled paper to prevent it, then wrapped it with another layer of cloth, and put them Make a cloth bag and carry it on your back.
On the other side, Kangxi had already ordered everyone to leave for Beijing, and discussed with Yinfeng: "When returning to the city, I and Baocheng will leave separately, and Baocheng will bring the ministers and civil and military officials back from Lihe Road, while I will lead the princes Go to the Thousand-Handed Buddha Temple with the minister to offer incense. (1)"
"Then, when you arrive in Beizhen territory, meet me at Zhuangzhenbao." The journey from Shengjing to Shanhaiguan only took four days in total, and Kangxi himself only took a small number of people to walk quickly, so Yin Ren led a large team and walked slowly.
The emperor divided the more than 7 people on the road into two groups, formally taught the task to Yinfeng, and ordered him to lead most of the [-] people to take the smooth road, while he himself detoured through several barren villages, The roads in Niuzhuang, Shaling and other places are all impassable. Once it rains, there will be pits on the ground, making it difficult for horse-drawn carriages to travel.
"Now that we have cement, it's much easier to handle. I'm going slower, and the newly built road over there will be dry in a few days."
Yinreng scratched his head, and filled Kangxi with most of the courtiers at once, while the royal family, nobles and concubines who were related to the royal family followed Kangxi to another road.
"Khan Ama asked Erchen to lead nearly 5 people, because there are so many people and the team is huge, it is not easy to detour?"
"This is one of them. If I want to go to Guangyou Temple to offer incense, it can be regarded as fulfilling the wish of the emperor's grandmother."
As for the rest, visiting the Thousand Mountains and the like is another political act.
Yinfeng was very surprised: "Khan Ama finally stopped tying his son to the waistband of his trousers!"
Kangxi: "..."
He stared at his son Xiong for a moment, then smiled: "If I'm not here, I can also send someone to watch you."
So don't make trouble for me, some of the team of nearly 5 people are staring at the crown prince.
Yinfeng: "Your minister is very sensible, he is not the kind of person who would go to the house to expose the tiles when Khan Ama is not around!"
"I took away Suo'etu and Yinti this time, and sent Nalan Mingzhu and his son to watch over you."
Yinreng's eyes lit up: "Pearl in the palm" and "Rong Ruo" have a good relationship.
Kangxi smiled and told Yinfeng: "There are also Luan Yiwei and the escorting army. There are so many people watching, and there is a prescribed route every day. I can't do anything else like this?"
[It seems that the child's reputation has become a negative number with Dad. 】Yinfeng became angry from embarrassment: Shut up!
He feels that Khan Ama is like the black cat sheriff now, and he is a little mouse being watched by the sheriff. He dare not commit crimes every day under the threat of the black cat sheriff. The mouse grabbed the little black room.
Yinfeng said righteously: "Ama Khan, I can swear that I will be absolutely honest and will not cause trouble on the way."
"Why would I be worried about you doing bad things? I am worried about your safety, so I will send you the Luan Yiwei." Kangxi touched Yinfeng's head and said with relief: "On the road, we will only be separated for four days. .”
Yinfeng patted his chest and promised: "I will miss Khan Ama a thousand times every day!"
Kangxi: "..."
The emperor's stuck expression was so funny, Liang Jiugong hurriedly lowered his head, unable to hold back.
"puff."
The author has something to say: Notes (1)
Nalan Xingde, who followed Kangxi on his second east tour, also described the huge number of his retinue in his "Long Lovesickness: Out of the Fortress": "One journey through the mountains, one journey through the water. Walking towards the bank of Yuguan, thousands of tents in the middle of the night Lights." Nalan Xingde's "Thousands of Lights" is certainly an approximate number, but it can also be seen the scale of the people who followed Kangxi's east tour.For such a huge team, only by choosing the most convenient route can we minimize the consumption of materials.However, the route Kangxi chose from Shengjing→Liaoyang→Jihuangtun→Niuzhuang→Shaling→Zhuangzhenbao was just a detour.And this journey "from Liaoyang to here, the ground is wet, muddy after the rain, and it is difficult to travel." The only explanation is that Kangxi separated from Shengjing and Crown Prince Yunfeng to meet Zhuangzhenbao in four days. Important things to do.Combining the "Records of Qing Dynasty" and "Notes on Kangxi's Daily Life", we found that Kangxi did the following things in turn during these four days: first, he went to Guangyou Temple in Liaoyang to make incense; Shang Kexi's tomb; the fourth is to surround and shoot tigers.Kangxi made many encirclements during his east tour. If it was just to shoot tigers, there was no need for Kangxi to detour to Shaling. Obviously, the encirclement was not Kangxi's main purpose.Excluding the purpose of the siege, the reason why Kangxi chose this route is very clear, namely: to go to Guangyou Temple to pay homage, to visit Qianshan, and to send ministers to Shang Kexi's tomb to pay homage.
The large-scale Guangyou Temple has a deep memory and influence on the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang who once lived in Shengjing.Otherwise, she wouldn't have specially sent 600 taels of platinum for incense, and ordered Kangxi to go to drop incense.
