Chapter 185 Baal returns home
Chapter 185 Bal’s Good Return
If we investigate further, it will be difficult to find out anything. The slaves of the Criminal Division have only had contact with Aunt Qian, but only two or three, and they are all respectable old people. They are familiar with interrogation methods, even if they are really accomplices.
They couldn't get anything out of them even though they tortured her. One of the nuns couldn't bear the torture and died.
With no other choice, Emperor Kangxi could only call for interrogation of Ging Guo and Chen Shou. They didn't know whether they were really wronged or just stubborn, but they both denied the matter, and even after being sentenced, they didn't loosen their grip.
Because the matter was still unclear, and the reputations of Concubine Xi and Hui Guizi were at stake, it was not advisable to use heavy punishment in a big way, nor to give in to the punishment. After being detained for three days, they were released in the end.
At this point, the matter could not be investigated, and the case concerning the life of his elder brother became an unsolved case. Emperor Kangxi hated the cunning of the people below him, and was also afraid of such methods, and dared to use poison in the palace.
Killing people at will is really not impudent.
Since he couldn't find out who he was, he had to ask others to be extra vigilant and not talk to anyone else. Emperor Kangxi specially sent another food taster to Yu Yuan to avoid something going wrong in the entrance.
After being depressed for several days, Emperor Kangxi never even took a step into the harem except for caring about Yuyan. It was not until Balshan arrived in Beijing that he finally smiled.
"I've been looking forward to having you here for a long time. It's been really hard work. How was this trip?"
Emperor Kangxi asked someone to give Balshan a seat. Because of their close relationship, he didn't care about the false courtesy. He just cared about it, but Balshan didn't care about it. He bowed to Emperor Kangxi respectfully and then stood up to reply.
.
Because he had many important things to do, Balshan did not dare to delay and did not exchange greetings. So he got down to business and took out a sheepskin map from the soft armor in front of him, unfolded it and showed it to Emperor Kangxi in detail.
"Fortunately, the map of the Qing Dynasty has been completely drawn this year. Wu Sangui's troops and defense ministers have also figured out the situation with their people. Long live the Lord's predictions. Wu Sangui really plans to ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor in Hengzhou. The date is set.
It’s the first day of March.”
Emperor Kangxi asked with a smile, and Balshan also smiled sheepishly. This smile revealed a pair of tiger teeth, which made people feel that he was less calm and solemn and more youthful.
"You don't know if you don't investigate. Once you investigate, you will be shocked. You will find that Gang Atai is really not a human being. The war is so intense, and Gang Atai is still enriching his own pockets and dares to deprive the soldiers of their rations and money."
"Everything you sent is new food, but the soldiers under Gang Atai can only eat old rice and hard corn flour. The soldiers of the Eight Banners in Zhili have not yet fought against the rebels, but they have already suffered losses.
, if the rebels come over, Gang A Tai and the others will be vulnerable."
Fortunately, the empress saw that he was tired, so she didn't say which princess she was from. She only said that there was a good one that she wanted him to meet, but it wasn't in the past two days. That princess's mother was sick and was waiting for him.
.
"I would also like to ask Long Live Lord to deal with this person as soon as possible. Perhaps Gang Atai can be controlled secretly. This silverfish must not be allowed to corrupt the soldiers of the Eight Banners again. Even if we are to alert the enemy, we cannot delay it any longer."
"How about it, you've been out for so long and you've found someone you can stay with for the rest of your life? Is Huang Mama worried about you?"
With Emperor Kangxi's words, Balshan was relieved. He had only been busy with two things recently. Now that everything was settled, he felt more at ease. After the two brothers discussed the matter of Boyi's study,
The atmosphere became more relaxed and we chatted about some other things.
Although Emperor Kangxi had already guessed it, he still couldn't believe it: "This is happening! That Gang A Tai deserves to die. Unfortunately, I saw that he was senior and wanted to reuse him before. So I will do it according to your method. Gang A Tai will be replaced immediately."
Take Tai, and after a detailed inspection of Boyi's study, whether it is successful or not, I will take Gang Atai's life!"
"As soon as Wu Sangui ascends the throne, his morale is bound to be boosted. I believe that our Qing troops stationed in Jiangxi and Hunan can be mobilized when Wu Sangui becomes emperor. Wu Sangui is about to hold the enthronement ceremony, and his defenses are bound to be weakened, which is a good opportunity for a strong attack."
Balshan hurriedly thanked him and went to have lunch with Emperor Kangxi and the Empress Dowager before leaving the palace.
Balshan had told Emperor Kangxi about this assassination plan. Emperor Kangxi didn't have much hope at the beginning. If it could work, it would be the best. If not, it would not work. Emperor Kangxi cared more about the life of that old guy Wu Sangui.
It's his brother's life.
Balshan refused with a smile, and then elaborated on Huizi's rebel deployment. He magically took out a letter and gave it to Emperor Kangxi. At this time, Huizi began to report the secret investigation of Gang Atai.
Balshan immediately breathed a sigh of relief. Thank God, the girl came to the rescue, so he could escape for a few more days.
"Having taken care of things before leaving, I had the opportunity to shoot a cold arrow at Wu Sangui. However, there were several masters around him. Not only did they not let me succeed, but they also chased me. I am not as skilled as others, which is really embarrassing."
Emperor Kangxi pushed the snack in front of Barshan: "It's my fault. You finally came back. I will satisfy you. You don't have to be busy these days. You will accompany me for a walk outside in five days."
I want to see how the resettlement of the refugees is going, and after that, you can go and check Boyi's study in detail."
"Where do you have time to look for someone? Long live my lord, you feel sorry for me and gave me a few days off. I have been busy with my work every day. I don't want to give more to you."
"In the past six months, I have sneaked under Wu Sangui and served as a bodyguard for Wu Sangui's son-in-law Fang Guangchen. I did a lot of work leading horses and running errands. I also had the intention of assassinating Wu Sangui. But Wu Sangui was too precious about his life. Let alone go out, just out of courtesy.
We have to guard people in front of us, and I never have a chance to make a move."
At this time, I heard someone say that his skills were inferior to others, and he didn't bother to ask in detail. He just quickly looked at Balshan beside him from beginning to end: "Is he injured? Is it important? I asked someone to send the imperial doctor."
"After all, it's not a temporary thing. We have to ask people to relax their vigilance first."
When he was just having dinner, he always saw the Empress Dowager hesitating to speak. Don't think about it, she must have wanted him to meet someone else's princess. He had never seen her before, and it wasn't an annoyance. He just felt that all the princesses in the capital were the same.
Like this, everyone has grown up in a disciplined manner, and he can't even speak happily, so he can't muster the slightest energy.
"Master, where are we going? Are we going back home now?"
As soon as Balshan came out of the palace, his servant Ma Xiaozhong came up to him happily. He led his master's horse and helped his master. He fell ill on the way and was afraid of dragging his master down, so he returned to the capital halfway.
Well, after counting the time, I haven’t seen my master for a year, and now I am very excited to see him.
Baershan smiled, he was used to being alone, and he didn't need anyone to serve him. He still had something to do, so he just sent people back.
"You don't need to follow me. I still have something to do. You should go back home first and prepare some bath water for me. I'm still smelly after traveling for half a month."
