Thirteen-year-old Makata and ten-year-old Chenghuan struggled to sweep the floor with brooms taller than them, and next to them stood two grandmothers with expressionless faces.

Cheng Huan was young in the end, and after sweeping for a while, he had no strength and could only stop. Seeing this, the bun on the side said: "Gege, you can't stop yet, the side concubine Niangniang said, when will the apse be cleaned and you will be able to eat." ”

Cheng Huan argued: "Yes...... But we didn't eat this morning! ”

One touched his face expressionlessly and said: "The slave and maid can't take care of it, since the side concubine Niangniang is so ordered, the slave and maid can only do as the side concubine Niangniang instructs." ”

Cheng Huan's little face was full of anger: "Yehenala is not our mother, why do you care about us?" When my mother comes back, she must be good-looking! ”

The two grandmothers glanced at each other, and a sneer flashed in their eyes, I'm afraid your mother will never come back.

Although the matter of Makata and Chenghuan's mother Zhezhe was strictly blocked by Huang Taiji's order, where can this kind of thing be blocked, whether it is Han or Manchu, the preference for gossip is innate, and a great fortune with the most noble status and the queen actually ran away with the Han people, which dynasty and generation is a big scandal and joke, where is such a thing said that the blockade can be blocked, this matter has even spread all over the high-level of Shengjing City, let alone them who live in the palace. I'm afraid that the only people who don't know about this now are these two poor Gege, right?

Makata on the side took a breath, walked to Cheng Huan's side and whispered: "Cheng Huan, don't beg them, it's useless, let's finish sweeping this place quickly, otherwise we will all be hungry today, and when we finish sweeping here, my sister will tell you a story." ”

"Oh!"

Cheng Huan responded, and had to compromise to pick up the broom with tears in his eyes and continue to sweep the floor. Since last year, Cheng Huan and her sister Makata have not seen their mothers again, and their lives have changed drastically, from clothes to food to no one to take care of them, and now they have to suffer from the cold eyes and ridicule of these grandmothers and eunuchs every day, all of this is like a nightmare for them.

Just as the two sisters were struggling to clean the apse, a sharp voice rang out: "The emperor has arrived!" ”

As the voice sounded, the surrounding eunuchs and palace maids knelt down in a large area, and soon Huang Taiji, who was dressed in a dragon robe, walked over from the corridor surrounded by dozens of eunuchs and palace maids.

"Amma, it's the Emperor Ama!" After hearing this voice, Cheng Huan's eyes suddenly lit up, and when she turned her head, she saw Huang Taiji not far away, and she threw down the broom in her hand and ran towards Huang Taiji, shouting while running: "Huang Ama......"

But before she could run to Huang Taiji, she was stopped by two eunuchs.

Cheng Huan, who was stopped by the eunuch, shouted anxiously: "Huang Ama, I am Cheng Huan, I am your Cheng Huan!" ”

Huang Taiji, who stopped, looked at Cheng Huan who was stopped not far away, his face was cloudy for a while, and his eyes showed an expression of pain, disgust, and pity, the corners of his mouth moved, as if he wanted Cheng Huan to come over, but he held back, and finally all his expressions turned into indifference, he just glanced at Cheng Huan lightly, and then turned to leave.

Seeing Huang Taiji's indifferent eyes, Cheng Huan only felt that her heart was instantly frozen into ice, and finally shattered into pieces, and at this time she only felt that all the world had turned into a dark color.

I don't know how long it took, a slightly cold hand held her little hand, and Cheng Huan slowly raised her head. Looking at Cheng Huan, who was already in tears, Makata said slowly: "Cheng Huan, don't look at it. He is no longer the Emperor Ama we are familiar with! ”

"Wow......"

Cheng Huan threw himself into Makata's arms and cried loudly.

"Sister...... I miss Eniang! ”

"My sister also misses Eniang!" At this time, Makata's eyes were also red, after all, she was only a thirteen-year-old girl, but as an older sister, she couldn't show her weak side here, otherwise she would be bullied even more, she hugged her sister and comforted: "Chenghuan, don't cry, my sister will take you to Eniang if she has a chance in the future!" ”

"Sister, really?" Cheng Huan raised his head and glared at his sister with a pair of big eyes and longingly.

"Really!" Makata resisted her grief and nodded vigorously. She is thirteen years old this year, she is a lot more mature than her sister who is still a little ignorant, and she naturally heard some rumors about their mother in the palace, at first she didn't believe that her mother would run away with a Ming countryman, but as the rumors became more and more and more indifferent to them, Makata gradually realized that those rumors were likely to be true, until one day they were driven to a simple house by the side concubine Yehenala with several grandmothers from the palace where they lived. She was almost certain that the rumors were true.

However, it was said that Huang Taiji ignored the two sisters, Makata and Chenghuan, and returned to Qingning Palace alone, and under the service of Yijing's concubine Namu Zhong, he changed into regular clothes and sat down on the chair, and Namu Zhong personally brought the tea.

Huang Taiji took the ginseng tea and took a sip of it, and began to close his eyes to recuperate, and after a while, he asked, "Namu Zhong, there's nothing going on in the palace these days, right?" ”

Namu Zhong hurriedly smiled and said, "Back to Your Majesty, what's the big deal in the palace that has been calm recently?" ”

"That's good!" After speaking, Huang Taiji nodded and stopped talking. Huang Taiji didn't speak, naturally no one else in the palace dared to make a move, Namu Zhong looked at Huang Taiji who closed his eyes and meditated, with a look on his face that wanted to say and stopped, and after a while, she finally couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, the concubine has something to ask for." ”

Huang Taiji said without opening his eyes: "Say ......"

Namu Zhong plucked up his courage and said: "Your Majesty, the concubine saw the two sisters Makata and Chenghuan doing rough work in the apse today, and it is said that the two children can't even eat enough, how can they get this?" Of course, the concubine also knew that His Majesty had handed over the two sisters to the Yehenara clan, but the Yehenara clan did too much, you must know that their mothers are ...... Bang......"

Before Namu Zhong's words were finished, Huang Taiji's hand slapped heavily on the coffee table next to him and made a loud muffled sound, which frightened Namu Zhong to swallow back the words that he had not yet spoken.

"But what?"

Huang Taiji looked at Namu Zhong with angry eyes, "Don't you know what good things that slut has done?" It's not appropriate to let go of the good fortune Jin, but I ran away with a wild man, how can you let me bear it? Every time I think of this, I can't wait to cut that slut with a thousand knives. Zhezhe is like this, Bumu Butai is like this, and the women of the Borzigit clan are like this, is it possible that you have to learn from them? ”

Speaking of this, Huang Taiji's face had become gloomy, and an inexplicable killing intent kept flashing in his eyes.

"Your Majesty!" Namu Zhong knelt down and sobbed: "Since Your Majesty said so, the concubine has nothing to say, since Your Majesty hates the Borzigit clan so much, then please ask Your Majesty to give the concubine a white silk!" ”

"Don't you dare!" Huang Taiji stood up open-mindedly and glared at Namu Zhong, but Namu Zhong just knelt on the ground and stubbornly looked at Huang Taiji.

Huang Taiji's nostrils kept contracting, like an old cow panting, and it took a long time before he took a deep breath: "I don't care about you, you just kneel here and be sober!" After speaking, he left without looking back, leaving only the miserable figure of Namu Zhong who was kneeling on the ground.

The angry Huang Taiji came out of the Qingning Palace and was about to go to the Yehenara clan to sit down, but he saw a eunuch hurriedly coming over and reporting: "Your Majesty, the ministers such as the Great Baylor, the Second Baylor, and the Fourteenth Baylor are asking to see you outside!" ”

"Why are they here?"

Huang Taiji was stunned at first, and then immediately realized that something big must have happened, otherwise these people would not have come together, and he immediately said without thinking: "Let them all come to Qingning Palace!" After speaking, Huang Taiji turned around and returned to Qingning Palace.

When Huang Taiji returned to Qingning Palace, he saw a figure of Namu Zhong still kneeling in the main hall, Huang Taiji's eyes flashed a complicated look, and he said with a straight face: "Okay, don't hurry up, I still have to discuss with Da Beile and them, you go in quickly!" ”

Namu Zhong stood up expressionlessly and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty!" ”

After speaking, she stepped on the support of Sandezi and retreated.

After a while, Dai Shan and others walked in under the leadership of a eunuch, and when they saw Huang Taiji, they quickly knelt down and bowed three times and bowed to him.

After everyone's luggage was finished, Huang Taiji waved his hand to signal everyone to get up and asked the eunuch to give a seat.

After everyone sat down, Huang Taiji looked at Dai Shan: "Erbeile, what urgent matter are you waiting to enter the palace to see me?" ”

Dai Shan said: "Your Majesty, let me tell Your Majesty about this matter." ”

"Rather finish me!" Huang Taiji turned his gaze and saw Huang Taiji looking over, Ning Wan and I quickly stood up and bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the slave just received the news from the capital of the Ming Dynasty, the 30,000 Beijing battalion of the Ming Kingdom has been pulled out of the capital a few days ago, and is coming towards Liaodong, the slave did not dare to delay after learning about this, and quickly informed the big Baylor on duty, and the big Baylor contacted the second Baylor and others to report to you immediately!" ”

"The people of Jingying have come to Liaodong?"

When Huang Taiji heard this, his thick eyebrows immediately wrinkled.

Since the beginning of the founding of the country, the Beijing camp is the most elite army of the Ming Dynasty, but in the late Ming Dynasty, the Beijing camp gradually degenerated into a fancy force, in the past two years, Zhu Youxiao has spent a lot of effort to rebuild the Beijing camp, it is said that the effect is not bad, so the Beijing camp has also become the most elite army in the hands of Zhu Youxiao, and now Zhu Youxiao actually sent the Beijing camp to Liaodong, is this a prelude to the Qing Dynasty?

Thinking of this, Huang Taiji couldn't help but sneer: "I have heard that Jingying, after being rebuilt, it is indeed stronger than the previous flowery army, but Zhu Youxiao thought that with this army, he wanted to argue with me, and he thought too well." You too, is this news worth your time together? ”

Ning Wan smiled bitterly: "If there is only this news, the slave will naturally not dare to disturb His Majesty's rest, but we also found a news at the outpost in the Ming Kingdom, that is, when the Beijing camp was opened, the 20,000 Jiangning troops originally stationed in Nanjing were also drawn almost at the same time, and soon disappeared without their traces." ”

"What...... Is there such a thing? ”

Huang Taiji stood up suddenly, looked at Ning Wan me in disbelief, and his expression became grim, "Is this true?" ”

Ning Wan said: "It's true, this matter was determined after my Qing Dynasty spies in Nanjing inquired in many ways!" ”

"Humph!"

Huang Taiji's face became solemn, he didn't pay much attention to Jingying to be honest, it was just a fancy army, in his opinion, although the operation had been rebuilt, it was a big question how much the combat effectiveness could be improved, but the Jiangning army that suddenly disappeared had to let him pay attention to it.

I don't know when the Jiangning Army has become the object of fear for all the warriors of the Emperor Taiji and the Qing Dynasty, how many Manchurian warriors fell under the fire of the Jiangning Army, mentioning the three words of the Jiangning Army, the Manchurians are both gritting their teeth and feeling fear.

Seeing that Huang Taiji didn't speak, Dai Shan said: "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Jingying to Liaodong must have something to do with the abnormal movement of the Jiangning army, and we have to guard against it." ”

"Isn't that nonsense?" Huang Taiji felt a greasy feeling in his heart, and said angrily: "Then how do you say to prevent it?" ”

Dai Shan didn't speak, he glanced at Amin and the others who were sitting on the side, and Ah Min, who was sitting next to Dai Shan, coughed lightly and said, "Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the Jiang Ning Army and the Beijing camp are going to work together, and they must be coming for our Daqing." And do you remember the letter that Yang Feng sent you a few days ago? ”

As soon as he heard this, Huang Taiji's face immediately darkened, Amin is simply a pot that can't be opened.

In this letter, Yang Feng not only openly said that Zhezhe, Da Yuer and Hai Lanzhu have become his women, but also asked Huang Taiji to hand over Zhezhe's two biological daughters, otherwise he would send troops to teach the Manchus a lesson, and this letter also directly caused Makata and Chenghuan to be handed over to the care of the Yehenara clan by the angry Huang Taiji. Now Amin is bringing up the old things again, which is simply revealing the scars of Huang Taiji.

Seeing Huang Taiji's blackened face, Amin sneered in his heart, but said solemnly on his face: "Last time, Yang Feng openly declared in his letter to His Majesty that if His Majesty did not hand over Makata and Chenghuan, he would send an army to the detriment of our Qing Dynasty. ”

"You fart!"

Huang Taiji couldn't hold back any longer, pointed at Amin's nose and scolded: "Amin, do you want me to respectfully dress up Makata and Chenghuan and personally send them to the hands of the Ming people, so that you can do what you want?" ”

Amin said solemnly: "Your Majesty, if you hand over the two daughters to avoid a sword war, the minister thinks it is indeed feasible!" ”

"I'm grass!"

Huang Taiji was really angry this time.
