Chapter 194 Go, give them a shock
That earnest advice, that little expression of fear that he might make a mistake.
It doesn't sound like a son advising his father, but more like a father scolding his son. It comes with the background music of "Xiao Xuanzi, you should be more careful."
The princes tried hard to hold back their laughter, and Kangxi's face darkened. He was so angry that he gritted his teeth again, raised his hand and pinched his little face: "I didn't say a word to me, but you accused me of being ignorant of the seriousness of the matter?"
Yinxuan took three steps back and covered his face tightly. "It's unfair, Khan Ama! I only hope that you can pay attention to this magic weapon and put it into the battlefield in large quantities. With the advantage of firearms, reduce the bloodshed and sacrifice of our Qing soldiers."
"You are truly pure and loyal! My second brother, the Crown Prince, my brothers, and my sister Kejing can all testify for me."
The few who were named nodded quickly: What bad intentions could Xiao Shiba have?
He just wanted to do his part for the prosperity of the Qing Dynasty.
The Mongolian princes and civil and military ministers present: …
Even if you have seen it many times, you still can’t help but be shocked: What magical powers does the Eighteenth Prince have?
Not only is he favored by the Emperor, but he is also favored by the Crown Prince, the other princes, Princess Kejing and others without any grudges.
According to gossip, the emperor wanted to promote him to the rank of a county prince several times, but the prince and others had no objection. It was he who firmly refused to accept the title, otherwise, this eighteenth prince, who was only eight years old, would have been a county prince by now.
The emperor dotes on him even more than he doted on the prince back then!
It was so blatant that many ministers were frightened, fearing that the emperor might depose the eldest son and enthrone his beloved.
The Mongolian princes who had been hitting a wall with him for several days knelt down in unison: "Amugulang Khan, you are wise. Our Qing Dynasty won the world by riding and shooting. Since Emperor Taizu, the empresses of all dynasties have attached great importance to it."
"In order to prevent the Eight Banners soldiers from forgetting their core skills, you spend a lot of money every year to prepare for the Mulan Autumn Hunt. It is because of your painstaking efforts that our Eight Banners soldiers are invincible."
"Yeah."
"The good teachings of our ancestors must not be forgotten. Amugulang Khan must not ignore the fundamentals of our Eight Banners because of some fancy tricks."
"No matter how filial the Eighteenth Prince is, he is just a little boy. How can he understand the importance of state affairs?"
The opposition is overwhelming and endless.
It was because these people still remembered how much Yinzhen was favored by the group that they did not dare to confront him in person. In order to avoid being hated by him, they even spoke Mongolian on purpose.
Trying to label him as young and inexperienced using a language he cannot understand is bound to be presumptuous.
Yinzhen was so angry that he gritted his teeth, never thinking that a crumbling tooth would be unable to bear the weight.
Pooh!
Yinxuan angrily spat out the milk tooth, with some blood at the corner of his mouth.
Kangxi was so frightened that he kept calling for the imperial physician.
Yinzhen waved his hand and said, "Khan Ama, my son is fine. He is just irritated by these old stubborn people."
At a critical moment when everything seems to be going well and firearms research may be put on the agenda and vigorously developed, it is blocked by these cunning old stubborn people. Who can tolerate this?
Yinzhen immediately pinched his waist and then spoke in fluent Mongolian: "How much do I need to say before you old stubborn people know that ambition does not extend beyond age, and incompetence is wasted on living a hundred years?"
"You are all Mongolian princes, dukes, and beiles, helping Khan Ama to manage the tribe. But you are so conservative and have no idea of keeping up with the times."
The Mongolian princes who were given a bear face: !!!
This guy has been speaking Chinese since he came to Weichang, and rarely even speaks Manchu. Who knew he could speak fluent Mongolian?
Kangxi:......
As the child's dear father, he could say that his little greedy cat specially learned Mongolian in order to successfully get food from Ningshou Palace.
And ever since communication became unimpeded, the Queen Mother's love for him has doubled.
Whatever flies in the sky or runs on the ground, as long as the little one mentions it, does the chef in the Empress Dowager's palace have to prepare it immediately?
No!
He could only smile and give his greedy son a filial name: "Little Eighteen is a filial boy. In order to better serve the Empress Dowager, he took the time to learn Mongolian."
So what you did just now was really a case of trying to cover up the truth.
The Mongolian princes and nobles who thought they were smart but ended up embarrassing themselves all blushed and reiterated their positions.
Yinzhen was so angry that he rolled his eyes ungracefully: "When you open your mouth, you talk about your country and the people. When you close your mouth, you talk about the country and the people. Isn't this prince doing this for the future development of the Qing Dynasty?"
"Of course, Master Eighteen cares about the world, but firearms..."
"But what but?" Yinzhen interrupted him directly: "A great man once said that without investigation, there is no right to speak. Have you ever used a chain musket? Do you know how many rounds it can fire, how far it can shoot, and how strong the bullet's penetrating power is? Have you ever compared it with your most proud archery?"
Then, without waiting for the man to speak, he knelt down in front of Kangxi and said, "Facts speak louder than words. I ask Your Majesty to find a few of the weakest soldiers in the firearms camp, and then carefully select a few baturu with the best physique and the best riding and archery skills."
"We shoot arrows and shoot guns at the same time, comparing the two. We want to see whether the musket and granular gunpowder are better, or whether our traditional horse archery is invincible."
Ah this...
The Mongolian princes and nobles wanted to refuse, but Kangxi had already agreed.
Yinxuan was stunned for a moment, then he cheered "Long live the emperor".
He kept shouting that Khan Ama was wise.
[Come on, I promise you won't agree to suffer a loss or be fooled. The famous scene of 'the weak defeating the strong' is coming, and the contrast effect is directly maximized. Under such a huge gap, even a dog knows how to choose, let alone Kangxi's father?]
Yinxuan clenched his fists, his big eyes filled with exuberant confidence.
Kangxi:......
My dear son, shall we discuss this?
Every time you finish speaking the key points, you just stop talking... Oh, can you please stop thinking?
Yinxuan was busy thinking about how to achieve an overwhelming victory and didn't even look up at him, so naturally he didn't notice the look of wanting to say something but stopping himself.
He just silently organized his words in his mind, thinking about how to take advantage of the opportunity to stir up a quarrel. He would rather throw a tantrum and make Kangxi's father take this matter seriously.
But it is obvious that Kangxi wanted to demonstrate in more detail the huge difference between firearms and bows and arrows.
When the two contestants arrived, Yinxuan almost couldn't hold back his laughter.
Good guy!
How can this be a PK between firearms and bows and arrows?
It was clearly a peak showdown between bamboo poles and large tanks, three bamboo poles versus three large tanks. As long as they stood there, the outcome seemed to be clear.
But it was obvious that Yinxuan had no objection to their size.
I only carefully examined their marksmanship.
After confirming that even if he was a weakling, he was a strong one in business. Yin Xuan smiled and waved his hand: "Go ahead, give them a little shock. It will also let some people know that no matter how good your martial arts skills are, you are still afraid of a kitchen knife, and good skills are not as good as a rotten spear."
