The so-called "unpredictable heart of the king", in the Qing Dynasty, there was a general, fighting outside the war, victorious return, can be described as immeasurable scenery, this general's original name is Changjia Agui, born in the last year of the Kangxi Dynasty, and his father were well-known figures at that time, both literary and martial. Ah Gui has been clever and clever since he was a child, and he is inspired to become a good official when he grows up.
Therefore, Ah Gui became an official in Qianlong for three years because of the imperial examination, because he was born into a famous family, coupled with his outstanding performance, he was soon appointed as the chief of the military department, and in the next few years, he was promoted to the secretary of the military aircraft department, although he was only a secretary, he could enter and exit the military aircraft department at any time and have direct contact with the important military of the country, which can be said to be Qianlong's greatest trust in a person.
The outstanding talent makes Ah Gui's career smooth, but with it is also the jealousy of everyone. How the magnate, who has always been in control of the overall situation, has endured the rapid promotion of someone in his own territory, and this person is not in his own control. As a result, the big hand that was secretly manipulated had gradually reached out to Ah Gui.
In the twelfth year of Qianlong, war broke out in Jinchuan, and in order to quell the war as soon as possible, Qianlong immediately sent the then military minister Ne Qin to quell the war. Although he was not in charge of the affairs of the Military Aircraft Department, he had no experience in actual combat, and the wrong guidance caused Jinchuan to lose the first battle of the First World War. Qianlong was very angry when he learned of this, and immediately sent someone to escort Ne Qin back to Beijing, and asked him to apologize for his guilt.
Later, Qianlong had no choice but to send the current general, Fuheng, to quell the Battle of Jinchuan. However, at that time, when the empress died, Qianlong was already sad, and the Battle of Jinchuan was so unsmooth that Qianlong attributed all his anger to the soldiers of the Battle of Jinchuan. At this time, although Ah Gui was still a secretary of the Military Aircraft Department and did not directly participate in the battle, he was still implicated and dismissed under the covert control of the magnates.
Qianlong, who was angry at the time, obviously made a wrong decision, but fortunately, the following year, Qianlong, who had calmed down, promptly corrected the chaos, not only forgave the guilt of the soldiers who participated in the Jinchuan War at that time, but also let Ah Gui restore the official and at the same time put Ah Gui in charge of the affairs of the household department.
In this way, although he experienced the storm of dismissal, Ah Gui's career was not only not affected, but also became a red person around Qianlong. However, at this time, although Ah Gui was already in charge of the affairs of some households, he was still a civilian official and had not completely transformed into a military general.
It was the Northwest First World War that completely transformed Ah Gui from a civilian to a military general. In order to quell the Battle of the Northwest as soon as possible, Qianlong sent the military commander at that time to rush to the front line with Ah Gui, and although Ah Gui had already rushed to the front line, he was a military staff officer and would not directly go into battle to kill the enemy.
However, in the process of serving as a staff officer, Ah Gui gradually accumulated a lot of practical combat experience, which provided great help for him to serve as a military general in the future.
In the Northwest World War, Ah Gui played a great role as a staff officer, not only suppressing the enemy army, but also quelling the rebellion, after returning to Beijing, Qianlong was very happy, and promoted Ah Gui to be a military minister, and since then Ah Gui has completely embarked on the road of military generals. Ah Gui, who abandoned Wen Congwu, not only did not have the slightest discomfort, but was very happy because his talents could finally be brought into play.
Therefore, Ah Gui, who became the minister of military aircraft, still adhered to his usual upright attitude, and never did anything perfunctory about the affairs under his jurisdiction. This directly led to the envy of those powerful people who were already red-eyed because of his revival and promotion, and He Yan was one of them.
He Yan was a famous corrupt official at that time, although his parents died early from the bottom, but because of his own great intelligence, the adult He Yan not only did not decline more and more like many people, but married the daughter of the governor at that time, and has since embarked on the road of power. Since then, he has gradually monopolized the government and power, and even Qianlong did not dare to move him easily.
The fact that He Yan was a corrupt official was almost no secret in the court, and everyone else dared to be angry because of his status, only Ah Gui would not. Almost every time Ah Gui returned to Kyoto, he would ask Qianlong for the same request—a heavy punishment and a harsh punishment. However, in the face of Hezhen, who was already under one person at that time, even if Qianlong knew that his request was a fact, he could not move and yan at all.
Soon, the news of Ah Gui saying bad things about He Yan in front of Qianlong reached the ears of He Yan himself, how could He Yan bear to have someone orchestrate himself in front of Qianlong? Almost at the same time, Washu began to fight back.
He Yan immediately asked his subordinates to join forces to impeach Ah Gui, Ah Gui was on the front line, and it was inevitable that he would act arbitrarily before he could report it, and he Yan seized this opportunity and made a big publicity, saying that Ah Gui's military industry had succeeded in exalting the lord, and comparing Ah Gui's seven people to adult Tang Yao.
How could Qianlong not see He yan's thoughts, Ah Gui's personality he was also clear, on the one hand was one of his own generals, on the other hand was he was a powerful and oppositional He Yan, and Qianlong, who was in a dilemma, thought of a way to balance the two.
On the day ah gui returned to Beijing in victory, Qianlong did not immediately seal the reward, but instead Qianlong sent someone to send a cup of poisoned wine. All the soldiers were very shocked and petitioned the emperor for mercy. Only Ah Gui, after thinking for a moment, laughed a few times, but then calmly drank the poisonous wine in front of everyone.
All the generals were very worried, but what everyone did not expect was that Ah Gui was not only fine, but his face was rosy, and there was no sign of poisoning.
In fact, the wine given by Qianlong was not poisonous, it was just a plan that Qianlong had thought of in order to balance the relationship between Ah Gui and He yan. Pretending to give poisoned wine to Hezhen a face, that is, saving Ah Gui, but also leaving he and the others speechless.
After that, Ah Gui also participated in many major military forces during the Qianlong period, and was deeply trusted by Qianlong, which was perhaps the greatest luck as a courtier.
The trust that Qianlong gave to Ah Gui can be said to be unprecedented, and as an emperor, Qianlong did not listen to the provocations of his traitors and knew people well, which was really rare.
