Chapter 394 Lawless Yonghuang 29
After Yonghuang married both his principal wife and concubine, he attended court as per the routine, reported for duty at the Ministry of War and then went back. He lived a very enjoyable life.
Three months later, Wanyan and Gioro were diagnosed with pregnancy. Six months later, Wanyan gave birth to Yonghuang's eldest son, and Gioro gave birth to Yonghuang's first daughter.
Hongli and Fucha Langya were very happy to know that Yonghuang had a son and a daughter. These two children were also their first grandchildren, so they valued them very much and rewarded them with many good things.
When they were happy, they set their sights on Yong Lian and Yong Zhang.
These two people have reached the age where they should be. After Jingwu's coming-of-age ceremony, Fucha Langya started choosing a husband for her daughter. Now that Jingwu is engaged, Yonglian and Yongzhang are close in age, so naturally they will choose wives together.
Not long after, the beauty contest began again, and Hongli and Fucha Langya began to choose wives for them.
After the selection, Hongli selected several nuns to enter the palace, and the others were left for Yonglian and Yongzhang to choose.
After Yonglian and Yongzhang chose their wives and got married, they became Beile and began to attend court.
Yonglian and Yongzhang attended court for the first time. They stood in front of the hall with nervousness, wanting to feel what it was like to attend court. However, they saw what kind of existence their eldest brother was in the eyes of the ministers.
Their image of their eldest brother as gentle and kind was completely shattered.
Although they had heard rumors before that their eldest brother was the Jade-faced Devil and the Poisonous Tongue Prince, they had never seen it with their own eyes. In addition, Yonghuang always presented himself as a good brother to them, so the two did not take the rumors to heart at all. They were still angry at those villains who were framing their eldest brother, and were waiting for the opportunity to enter the court to deal with the ministers who had framed their eldest brother.
who knows……
They don't need to worry about their eldest brother at all.
The first time they attended court, they watched in amazement as their eldest brother debated with a group of scholars and made sharp remarks to some old ministers, which made those old ministers' faces turn red with anger and they muttered that they would die to prove their integrity or bang their heads against the wall. As a result, they did not move, while others just watched and acted as if it had nothing to do with them.
Of course, there were also some smart people who wanted to sow discord among the princes, but the result was predictable. Before Yonglian and Yongzhang had a chance to speak, Yonghuang's words were like a machine gun, firing at them in a burst, successfully breaking the defenses of the smart people. Yonghuang also gave them a big gift package of demotion.
Those people had tainted backgrounds. Yonghuang had many secrets about them. If someone made him unhappy, he would expose it directly in the court. Then they would be in trouble and his anger would subside.
Just like that, Yonglian and Yongzhang ended their first court session in a daze, and they had not yet come to their senses when they returned home to find their mothers.
Fu Cha Langya already knew what happened at the court meeting. She did not immediately ask Yonglian how he felt about his first court session. Instead, she asked Lianxin to prepare some calming soup for him to calm his nerves.
The stereotype of Yonghuang in their minds was broken, and they needed time to digest it.
When Yongzhang returned, Concubine Chun asked him whether his court session went well and whether anyone in the court was against him. Yongrong also stayed with Concubine Chun and asked his brother how it felt to attend court.
Amid the mumbling of his mother and brother, Yong Zhang slowly came back to his senses and looked at the expectant eyes of Concubine Chun and Yong Rong. Yong Zhang suddenly covered his chest, still not reacting in his heart. He couldn't believe that his elder brother's image in front of outsiders was so terrible.
Then, thinking about it, they suddenly felt that their eldest brother was still very good to them, his younger brothers. At least he was not harsh to them.
Looking at those ministers who were speechless after being rebuked by his elder brother, and looking at the helpless yet relieved eyes of his own father, Yong Zhang felt that his elder brother was really brave in the court. If it were him, he would not know how he would be ostracized and targeted by those old ministers.
When they went to court for the second and third time, Yonglian and Yongzhang gradually got used to the way their eldest brother, who was sharp-tongued and overbearing, interacted with the ministers. Anyway, his sharp tongue would not be directed at them, his two younger brothers. They were happy to see those ministers who relied on their seniority to bully others being criticized by him.
Anyway, they hate those pedantic old men.
Unfortunately, before they could be happy for long, Yonghuang suddenly asked the emperor for permission to garrison the border.
This time it was not the border between Qing Dynasty and Mongolia, but the border between Mongolia and Russia.
Today's Mongolia is part of the Qing Dynasty.
Russia often harassed the Qing Dynasty's border, causing great headaches for the Qing Dynasty. Yonghuang took the lead in guarding the border. It would not be impossible to defeat Russia.
Yonghuang was about to leave the capital, and the happiest people were the ministers who had been confronted and suppressed by Yonghuang. When Yonghuang proposed to attack Russia, they all agreed and tried their best to tell him how many benefits there would be for Yonghuang to attack Russia, which made Yonghuang famous as the undefeated god of war.
Seeing this, Yonghuang looked at them with a dark look in his eyes.
Those ministers were somewhat horrified by what they saw, but they still actively sent Yonghuang away from the capital.
Hongli was at the top watching several ministers committing suicide.
Hongli thought that even though Yonghuang was gone, there were still Yonglian and Yongzhang. Yongzhang might not be smart, but Yonglian was a good person.
As those ministers wished, Hongli agreed to Yonghuang's request. Soon, Yonghuang left the capital with his army.
When the ministers breathed a sigh of relief, Yonghuang left and divided the list of all the ministers' evidence he had collected into two halves, giving them to Yonglian and Yongzhang respectively.
When Yonghuang attended court for the first time after leaving Beijing, all the ministers were ready to present their theories to Yonglian and Yongzhang, they found that the two princes were looking at them with very strange eyes.
That look is exactly the same as the one Prince Cheng gave them...
Afterwards, they met two replicas of Prince Cheng.
The effect of two "Princes" is much more powerful than one. As a result, all the ministers entered another "purgatory" and were tortured.
Emperor Qianlong, who was sitting high on the platform, looked at all this with great satisfaction, without any expression.
During these miserable days, all the ministers began to miss Prince Cheng and hoped that he would come back. The Second Beile and the Third Beile were too terrible.
Yonghuang who is fighting outside: Don’t cue!
In the second half of the second year after Yonghuang left Beijing, news came from the north that Russia was seeking peace.
When the ministers heard the news, they were very excited. It was great that Prince Cheng was coming back!
In just two years, many new faces appeared in the court, and Yonglian was brought by Hongli to take charge of the government.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Yonglian was the crown prince chosen by Hongli.
It’s not that there was no one who didn’t instigate Yong Zhang and Yong Lian to confront each other.
Unfortunately, Yong Zhang saw Yong Lian's intelligence and knew that he would not be Yong Lian's opponent. What's more, his elder brother Yong Huang had told him before that he should do what he wanted and develop in areas where he had advantages. The throne belonged to the legitimate son, that is, Yong Lian, so he should not covet it.
Yong Zhang naturally knew his own strengths and weaknesses, and he listened to Yong Huang's advice, so he stayed with Yong Lian, choosing to be a good brother and assist him.
Of course, even if Yong Zhang had that ambition, but seeing that Yong Huang was standing behind Yong Lian, and seeing his elder brother's performance in the court, he could be sure that unless his elder brother wanted to sit in that position, with his elder brother's protection, Yong Lian's position as the crown prince would definitely be secure.
