Qinghuan in the Dream (107) (Qinghuan in the Dream (107) Kangxi Four...)
Happy dreams(107)
In the forty-second year of Kangxi's reign, there was an important event at the beginning of spring - March 18th, the emperor's 50th birthday.
At fifty, you know your destiny. At this age, the emperor will feel melancholy. He is getting old!

When a man reaches this age, if he is not alive, he can grow a beard. The emperor has always had a beard, but it does not last long. Not everyone can grow a long beard, and the beard must be over fifty years old.
Only when you are a real elder can you stay. And when you reach this age, the general requirement is to separate from your old wife. If not, it is disrespectful.
The emperor did not have an old wife and needed to be separated, but he had to grow his beard. Then he looked at the mirror with fine hair and let the eunuch trim his long beard. How could the emperor not feel sad?
My sons have asked to see me, so let’s see them!
A string of sons, usually just look at them, but today they look awkward. Maybe they are paying attention to their beards, because the emperor unexpectedly discovered that both the eldest and second eldest son of his family had grown beards.
Yes! When they are over twenty-eight, if their father is still alive, they cannot keep their beards, but they have to grow their beards.
The eldest will be thirty-two this year, the second one is also thirty, and the third one is twenty-seven, barely twenty-eight, but I am quite anxious to continue. Are you mature and steady? Well! You are quite mature! Are you steady?
Have to look again.
Prince Zhi was shocked by the sight. He touched the beard under his nose and looked at the old man, "Huang Ama, is there anything wrong with my son?"
"Are you already thirty-two?"
Look at what you said! Isn’t my son thirty-two? He sighed, “My son is already sixteen this year.”
Generally speaking, the age of twenty-eight is the age when you can marry your children. It’s time to become a father-in-law and a father-in-law. Wouldn’t it be disrespectful if you don’t grow your beard?
The emperor suddenly realized: "Are they all sixteen?" That's not true! There are several in a row, the big one is sixteen, the second one is fifteen, the third one is fourteen... Do you think you are worried?
Prince Li also smiled, "Huang Ama, my son's big princess is already eleven."
In common people's houses, everyone gets married on the eleventh day.
Sibeile said in her heart that her family's Fujin was only eleven or twelve years old when she got married. What's even more disturbing is that her eldest princess was already ten years old.
The emperor said in his heart, you all talk about your family's princess, I know what you mean, isn't it the Mongolian affairs that should be dealt with? But your princess has reached the age of leaving the court, is my princess old enough to get married? He is not
Very sure, then look at Li Dequan.
Li Dequan whispered: "The sixth princess is eighteen."
Who is the biological mother of the Sixth Princess?
"Tong concubine."
The emperor remembered and said decisively, "Let's go to Mulan this autumn. By the way, is it time for the artillery to be launched?"
Prince Zhi quickly agreed, "It will be settled in July."
The emperor nodded and mentioned the matter of Shengshou again: "I have read the information you submitted. My sons have to present congratulatory gifts, which is what they deserve. But you cannot compare with the other princes of the clan, Beile Beizi. I will reduce them as appropriate.
After receiving their congratulatory gifts, the ministers all said they would make donations. As I said, if all the ministers in Beijing make donations in this way, why don’t the governors outside compete for everyone to follow suit? If this is the case, what goes up and what follows will follow.
How can anyone not disturb the people and not add burdens to the people? As I said, I am fond of literature and ask them to submit poems and essays. I will take a look at all the poems and essays submitted."
Everyone: "..." What do you mean by this?
The third child felt that he understood, and said quickly: "Huang Ama, I am thinking of publishing a collection of poems for you..."
"A collection of poems!" The emperor was unhappy, "After I'm gone, you can collect my lifetime poems and publish a collection of poems." Now, there's no need to be so anxious to summarize my life. According to longevity
If you say a hundred years old, I have only lived half of my life! Why are you in such a hurry?
The third child: "..." The flattery has not been flattered, the frugal method has not been adopted, and the old man is becoming more and more difficult to serve.
The fourth child said: "When the elders of the common people live their lives, it is all the children and grandchildren who take care of it..."
Before he finished speaking, the emperor's face showed a look of satisfaction, and then he kept nodding, "Yes! This is true for ordinary people's families, let alone the royal family." People's children and grandchildren are so filial. As a prince, don't you?
Can't you set an example for the world?
The brothers looked at each other cryptically, then bowed, saying that they all understood that this was what they should share.
Once you understand it, that’s fine. Once you understand it, go get busy!
As a result, the princes resigned one after another. The emperor finally realized the benefits of having more princes. Anyway, since the second half of last year, his private treasury has not been out except for entering.
I should not worry about money alone.
Opening the fold, I found a fold from the governor of the river, Zhang Penghie, saying that people in Tai'an, Xintai, Mengyin and other places were hungry and should be rescued immediately.
allow!
Then he handed over the fold and said, "Turn to Baile to process."
I looked through another book, it was from the governor of Shandong, saying that due to the disaster, the money and food for forty-one years had not been collected yet. This year was also a lean year, and the people still needed relief. I asked, what happened in forty-two years?
Can the money, grain and land tax be waived?
allow!
After approving it, he handed it to the waiting young eunuch: "Transfer to Si Baylor for processing."
Li Dequan was waiting aside, and occasionally he could see what was written on the brochures. Look, the two disturbing brochures were written before Shengshou. In the past, the emperor would have been angry. Now the emperor is neither happy nor angry.
Yes, I saw Guo Xiu, the governor of Huguang again, and said that the admiral Lin Ben indulged the model soldiers and openly burned and looted the city.
This is too arrogant!
The emperor approved one and found out, then threw it over and said, "Transfer it to the prince for processing."
Looking back, there is another break in the river course. It is said that there are several embankments in Jiuligang and Longwo that need to be submerged and repaired. They need to prepare more materials and have people who are good at river construction to inspect them in detail.
The emperor wrote a "knowledge" and then handed it over, "Please take care of it with Liu Beile."
Li Dequan felt very happy. Anyway, the emperor knew about the matter, so he didn't have to worry about the matter. He asked the princes and brothers below to handle it first, and they had to hand over their methods. If the emperor thought it was OK, he would just mark it as correct.
If the emperor doesn't think it's possible, he can just add a few words of advice on what he thinks should be done, and that's all.
No, the coupons that were sent out were handed back after a while.
Babeile said that he would immediately set off for Shandong. After investigating the situation, he would collect surplus grain from wealthy households on the spot to provide disaster relief.
Sibeile replied that customs duties will be levied starting in April, which is expected to clear part of the warehouse.
Prince Li said that no matter whether Lin Ben was really that indulgent, it was a big mistake for the soldiers to refuse to obey the rules. Considering Lin Ben's old age, he asked the emperor to appoint him to the post of admiral.
The emperor first approved Ba Beile's request, and then replied to Si Beile that he would ask Si Beile to report tax returns month by month starting from April, and then approved Prince Li to propose a few people who could replace Lin Ben. He was in the middle circle
person appointed.
This is military power. Since the prince is no longer the prince, the emperor has let go of his power.
However, Prince Li did not name the person directly, but pointed out which camp Lin Ben belonged to. After saying this, the emperor understood that what the second child meant was that since he was suspected of being arrogant, he should change to Lin Ben.
If people from the opposing camp go, those who dare to be arrogant are all Lin Ben's cronies. Otherwise, they don't have the guts. Let Lin Ben's political opponents go over and grab the tail of these arrogant people, and the matter will be solved.
The emperor then appointed someone himself and gave the order directly to the officials, and that was it.
Liubeile's reply was the last to be sent. First, he proposed a solution to the matter at hand, and the emperor approved it. Later, he also proposed a proposal to open a handyman course.
The emperor pondered for a moment, and then issued an order directly, asking Liu Beile to handle it.
Tongtong discovered that his father-in-law, who was deceived by the emperor, could now enjoy it. He had nothing to worry about, and every son was not idle. If the method you said is good, then it is correct, just go ahead and do it. The method you said is not good
, I scold you so much that you have to deal with it later.
He treats his sons harshly. During a holy birthday, he doesn’t even have to pay for it, so he leaves it up to his sons to take care of it. After the banquet is over, the various preparations and expenses are divided. Isn’t it a small amount?
Moreover, this is a particularly bad start! Do you think our sons will have to take care of the birthdays of our respective mothers and concubines in the future? Will we also have to spend a lot of money to share the worries of the emperor's father for the Queen Mother's birthday?
How much does it cost per year just for these expenses?
But they are very generous to the noble ministers of the clan! I don’t want you to send expensive things, but just write a birthday poem and I will be very happy.
Hahaha! Your Majesty is a kind and good Emperor, and has been praised by all the officials. But you want to see if your sons' families can still live a good life?
Are you complaining about the fourth child? You can’t complain! Aren’t you just complaining because you don’t want to celebrate the old man’s birthday? Besides, if the fourth child doesn’t say it out, the emperor won’t do it? I didn’t see that the third child didn’t speak to the old man’s heart when he opened his mouth.
, was the old man kidding him back?
Alas! As soon as the old man delegates power, the side effects will appear.
I'm afraid it will appear to the courtiers that the emperor has never been so afraid of his son.
But it seems that we have decentralized power. We have no military power and no power to appoint and remove courtiers. All we do is to do things. Where are the rights? The key is that we don’t have money now. If we don’t have money or power, who will follow us? Your Majesty
I am so kind to you, but when you don’t know who the next emperor will be, I ask you to bet but you don’t even do it.
Tongtong is so worried, how should she prepare this birthday gift for the emperor?
The emperor is so stingy and asks me to give birthday gifts generously. I feel that I am at a loss.
She discussed with Si Ye: "In the past years, we only had clothes, shoes and socks, calligraphy and paintings, antiques, etc. Clothes, shoes and socks are easy to talk about. I cut and sew our own fabrics myself, and the whole body..."
Si Ye: "..." The clothes with no patterns at all are very simple. The emperor will suspect you and remind him not to be too extravagant.
Tongtong waved his hand: "The emperor has seen thousands of miles and will not misunderstand. He knows that my daughter-in-law is clumsy and can't embroider. I am also the most honest and will never cheat!" Besides, during the draft, I
I didn't hide it, I really didn't cheat her into getting married.
Si Ye: "..." Okay! If our family is the only one who behaves like this, the emperor will probably just laugh and not take it seriously. But if all of you Fujins think so, when the birthday gifts are put out, we will
My son said that we were not sincere, and the emperor probably didn’t believe it either.
