Chapter 17 Kang Mazi, your Shikai is here! (Please collect, recommend, monthly vote, and follow up)

July of the seventh year of Emperor Kangxi's reign in the Qing Dynasty, Beijing.

This most prosperous capital of the Qing Dynasty is also the most prosperous economic center in the north today. Since the Qing Dynasty took over, it has been divided into two cities: the inner city and the outer city.

The Baoyi people of the system, Sula slaves (domestic slaves of the Banner people, not Baoyi people) and others lived there, while Han people were allowed to live in the outer city. Han people were allowed to live, not only Han people.

In fact, most of the industries in the outer city of Beijing also belong to the Eight Banners dignitaries, the chief minister of the Ministry of Internal Affairs or the Xiao Mazi Emperor of the Qing Dynasty himself. The former residence of Cao Xueqin, who wrote "A Dream of Red Mansions" and supported many red scholars, is Chongwenmen

A "seventeen-and-a-half-room" property in Waijian Shikou. This property is located in the outer city of Beijing. It was purchased when the Cao family became powerful.

In addition, the Cao family of Zhengbai Banner of the Ministry of Internal Affairs also owned many shops and houses in the outer city of Beijing at that time. There was also a farm outside Beijing, as well as a pawn shop, land and dyeing shop in the area of ​​Zhangjiawan Pier in Tongzhou. It can be said that they were full of slaves.

, two sleeves of silver wind.

This rich old Cao family can only be regarded as one of the greedy people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs. There is no one more arrogant than his family, but there are a lot of people who are shoulder to shoulder. As for the greedy people,

There are too few families to count. And these families are nothing compared to the dignitaries of the Eight Banners and the relatives of the emperor and the country. When these people came in, they were nothing.

They are both land-enclosures and house-occupiers, and each of them has grabbed enough property for their children and grandchildren to spend ten lifetimes. Now they still control more than half of the world's top officials. If Wu Sangui's rebellion is not well established, they will still be able to survive for generations to come.

It couldn't be any better when the sleeve silver wind goes down!

Nowadays, not only are most of the industries in the outer city of Beijing surnamed "Qi", but even outside Beijing and even the entire Shuntian Prefecture and neighboring Xuanhua, Zunhua, and Yongping, there are also flag fields, flag villages, and bannermen.

The land owned by the coatmen and even the lower-level Sura slaves.

Ordinary Han people in the outer cities of Beijing and the surrounding areas were almost reduced to tenants without property.

Although the Han people's property has been taken away by bannermen, Baoyi, and Sula slaves, they still have to grit their teeth and live their lives. What else can we do? You can't defeat rebellion, and you can't starve to death.

Not reconciled.

Fortunately, God has opened his eyes. Most of the most vicious Eight Banners old men among the Banner lords were short-lived. They died of various reasons within a few years of their good days. Most of them died of smallpox, and

Many of them were killed by dogs, and many of them went to fight with Li Dingguo, Zheng Chenggong and others and were killed. But most of the descendants of these evil people learned a lot. In addition to eating, drinking, whoring and gambling, they also engaged in corruption and bribery, and poached corners of the Qing Dynasty.

Basically he is a reasonable and good person.

And under the leadership of these learned bannermen, the market in the outer city of Beijing has prospered, with all kinds of food, drink and entertainment, novelties from all over the world, female prostitutes in the eight major alleys, and husband-in-law.

Come on, gentlemen, the bannermen have plenty of money!

The entire outer city of Beijing is filled with a kind of decadent vitality.

It’s really decadent and makes people yearn for it!

But today, for some reason, a group of unlearned "Flag Soldiers" suddenly broke into the outer city of Beijing. They were one man and two horses. Everyone was wearing dark-colored linen coats and red-tasseled hats.

The six-foot-long spear had its tip carefully wrapped in linen, which looked very cherished. In addition to the luggage, there was also an khaki cloth-covered iron armor rolled into a package. This made the Banner Han people who were wandering around or making a living outside Beijing wait.

What surprised me was that this group of "Flag Soldiers" had a formidable aura that I had not seen for a long time. I saw them all with livid faces, riding on their horses with their heads held high, and they entered in a strict line from Yongding Gate, along the

We walked along Zhengyangmenwai Street. We walked not fast, but it gave people a great sense of oppression, as if a bunch of old people who had died from smallpox crawled out of their coffins to teach their unworthy descendants how to behave.

Becoming a villain.

Ah, he turned out to be Wu Sangui’s subordinate!

Wu Sangui's soldiers are really good!

The bannermen watching the excitement on the street couldn't help but take a breath, Wu Sangui is really going to rebel! The world has been peaceful for so many years, and they still have such elites. Isn't it for rebellion? What is it for?

?

On Zhengyangmen Street, everyone was silent for a while, just staring dumbly at the small cavalry passing by menacingly.

He was a music lover in his previous life. Although he did not go further to become a literary and artistic worker, he still retained this hobby until he became ill due to overwork. This time, he not only has good looks, but also has a good voice. Unfortunately, he still can't eat it.

As a literary person, I can only sing some songs on the way to Beijing to relieve my boredom.

Wang Zhongxiao responded, cleared his throat, and started singing!

These two people left Yunnan in April and walked for three months before crossing the entire Qing Dynasty and arriving in Beijing, the capital of the Qing Dynasty.

Before entering the city, Liu Xuanchu, the military advisor sent by Wu Sangui, proposed to show the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers in the city how powerful they were. They had to show the spirit of the Pingxi King and Fan army, so as not to be underestimated.

"嗻!"

"Shikai," Wu Guogui felt that the atmosphere was not enough, so he said to Wang Zhongxiao beside him, "Come on, sing one!"

At this moment, when he heard someone asking about his family's origin, Wu Guogui clasped his fists on horseback and shouted with a loud voice: "Young and old gentlemen, please invite me. I am the second-class Baron Wu Guogui, the commander-in-chief of Pingxi Fan! I have been ordered by the king to come to Beijing to attend the meeting.

Go!"

Zhengyangmenwai Street is a lively place. There are shops lined up on both sides of the street. This group of "Flag Soldiers" came into the city for lunch again. Zhengyangmenwai Street is very lively. There are many restaurants and teahouses.

The waiters stood on the street and shouted to welcome the guests. The aroma of freshly prepared delicacies and snacks spread along the street. The idle Eight Banner disciples gathered in groups and were about to go to the restaurant for a drink when they suddenly saw

My "dead dads" came to the city, and they were all stunned. What day is it today, Qingming Festival?

Everyone knows that the Eight Banners disciples within the Pass, especially the Eight Banner disciples in Beijing, have learned well now. Except for the old ones, there are few who are as fierce as the group in front of them. But the Eight Banners outside the Pass seem to be quite fierce!

The leaders of this team of "Flag Soldiers" are two tall, good-looking men. They both have outstanding looks. One is older, about forty years old, with a beard. It is Wu Guogui. The other is much younger.

, looking only seventeen or eighteen years old, of course he is Wang Zhongxiao.

So Wu Guogui ordered his men and Wang Zhongxiao to tidy up, then put on their big guns, lead their auxiliary horses, took their bows and arrows and waist knives, and entered the city as a team, so that the Eight Banners soldiers in Beijing could see the good men of Pingxi Fan.

More and more people were watching the excitement on the street. Seeing the cavalry slowly passing by, a few Eight Banners disciples who had reacted had already asked loudly: "Men, where are you from? Are you from outside the customs?"

?”

Now Wu Sangui has changed his strategy and wants to be a murderer for the Qing Dynasty, so Wu Guogui and others have to behave a little more fiercely.

The song turned out to be so good that the song "Farewell" made everyone cry.

But now that he was back in Beijing, he could no longer sing "Farewell" and had to change his song. Moreover, he had already thought of a "Farewell Song of the Qing Dynasty", which became the sixth official national anthem of the Qing Dynasty.

Queen of Heaven, there is an uprising in Wuchang!

On the way to Beijing, he often sang this "Farewell Song", and now he just sang it to suit the occasion. I wonder if he could sing away some of the good fortune that Emperor Kangxi had been blessed with?

Wang Zhongxiao pondered for a while, and then shouted at the top of his lungs: "Gong Jin'ou, Chengtian Gui, the people are happy with the algae, and they are happy to be together. The Qing Dynasty was lucky. Zhenxi Hao, the empire is protected by the sky, the sky is high,

The sea is roaring"

Wang Zhongxiao had taught this "End Song of the Qing Dynasty" to his and Wu Guogui's subordinates on their way to Beijing. Now when he took the lead in singing, many men with loud voices started to sing along.

The scene of more than a hundred knights from the Pingxi clan singing and marching on Zhengyangmenwai Street in the outer city of Beijing could scare some people to tears!
