Kangxi was very happy when he heard that I wanted to buy opium with his own money. He said happily: "Xiaobao, you are really loyal to me. I was worried that Wu Yingxiong has many eyes and ears in the capital. If we do these things with great fanfare, sooner or later we will let him go."
He knows that if you provide money yourself, even if Wu Yingxiong knows about it, he will still treat it as you doing business in private. It is not the court's intention and will not arouse his suspicion. Tell me, if this thing is done
Yes, let me reward you with something?"
I smiled bitterly and said: "I don't ask for rewards from the emperor. I just hope to stay by the emperor's side all the time, and I will be satisfied." Kangxi chuckled and said, "Our friendship was formed through fighting, so it is naturally different.
As an ordinary minister, I am not willing to let you leave my side, but this matter is of great importance, and I really can't trust others to do it. The civil and military ministers of the Manchu Dynasty collected Wu Sangui's money from him every year, but you only accepted it from him.
Although Wu Yingxiong gave you the garden and the beautiful woman, don’t worry that I will blame you. When you come back from Qinghai, you can enjoy it with peace of mind. If you do a good job, I will reward you with a hundred
Beautiful woman, haha.”
I hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I am not a lecherous person. Don't get me wrong. I just want to think that it was Wu Yingxiong who gave it to me anyway. If you don't want it for nothing, I can spend more money on him, and he will have less money in Prince Pingxi's Mansion."
If you rebel in the future, you will lose some military pay." Kangxi laughed loudly and said: "This little silver spent on you is just a drop in the bucket to Wu Sangui, and it will not be affected at all. You are
Children have seen it. However, you are always thinking about our Qing Dynasty even when receiving gifts, which shows that you have no selfish motives, which makes me very happy. I leave the matter to you, and I feel relieved."
After talking for a long time, I still want to go to Qinghai to be a farmer, and I have lost a lot of money in vain. I don’t need to mention the sadness in my heart. If I go to Qinghai, I probably won’t be able to eat the delicious food in the capital, and the food around me
I wonder if these girls are willing to become farmers with me. Fang Yi will definitely not go. Rong'er and Xiaolian may go. Yuqing will stay in the palace. Mu Jianping will probably ask Fang Yi for his opinion. Then
Naturally, she followed her senior sister. There are more than 20 Persian beauties who will never follow me to Qinghai to dance the harvest dance for me. I haven't seen Shuang'er yet. If Shuang'er is with me, where will they go?
It doesn't matter to me anymore. It will take at least a year and a half for me to go to Qinghai. Maybe the girl Shuang'er was given to someone else by her third mistress. Then wouldn't my trip to the Qing Dynasty be in vain?
.
Thinking of Shuang'er, I suddenly came up with another idea and said to Kangxi: "Your Majesty, I have something important to tell you." Kangxi said: "Oh, what else?" I hesitated, thinking about whether I should or not.
It was time to tell him about Shunzhi now. When Kangxi saw that I was silent, he urged: "If you have anything to say, just tell me, don't worry about my mother-in-law." I gritted my teeth and said, no matter what, I can't go to a place like Qinghai for the sake of my two children.
, let the matter come out. Then he said: "Your Majesty, this matter is not trivial. You must not let anyone hear it. I will tell you after I have sent out all the people outside." After saying that, he came to the door.
Let the eunuchs and guards outside leave.
Kangxi saw that I was so mysterious and couldn't help but be very curious. After I dismissed the servants, he grabbed me and said: "Why is it so important? Tell me quickly." I whispered: "Your Majesty, the old emperor is still alive.
"Kangxi's face suddenly changed color, and he said in shock: "You...what did you say!! Father, he...this is impossible, Xiaobao, are you kidding me?" He said the last sentence in a stern tone.
I hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, this is absolutely true. I don't dare to joke with you with my head." Kangxi said: "How is this possible? How is this possible? Who did you hear this from? Where is your father now?"
I said: "Eunuch Hai Dafu told me." Kangxi was startled and said: "Hai Dafu is not already dead, how could he tell you?" I said: "After Hai Dafu was injured by Obai, before he died
, I was the only one around, so he told me about this matter. According to him, the old emperor is now a monk on Mount Wutai."
Kangxi said: "Hai Dafu is loyal to my father. I know this. If he is the one who told me about the old emperor's life, I have to believe it. However, why did he tell you such an important matter without coming to tell you?"
I'll report it." I said: "Before Hai Dafu died, he said that the old emperor had become a monk on Mount Wutai and no longer wanted to be involved in secular affairs. Therefore, no one can know this news, including you, the emperor. But he is going to die.
I was also worried about the safety of the old emperor, so I had to tell me what happened, hoping that I could protect the safety of the old emperor."
Kangxi said anxiously: "I am my father's son. Is it too difficult to tell me? No, my father must want to see me. Xiaobao, Hai Dafu wants you to protect my father's safety. Why did you tell me today? Father
If the emperor is really alive, can you take on such a big thing?" When I saw Kangxi getting angry, I hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, don't worry, I have already sent people to Wutai to protect the safety of the old emperor.
I also remember that Eunuch Hai told me to explain, so I don’t dare to tell the truth.”
Kangxi's expression softened and he said, "So you have made arrangements, but you don't know who to send?" I thought about it and said, "I sent Ruidong there." Kangxi said, "It turns out it's him, Ruidong is a very powerful martial artist.
, I guess there won't be anything wrong, you are very thoughtful. When I asked why I haven't seen him recently, I thought he couldn't stand Duolong's rejection and ran away angrily, but it turned out that you arranged him to go to Wutai Mountain. But, Ruidong's heart
You are so arrogant and your official position is not low, how can you listen to your orders?"
I chuckled and said: "Your Majesty, I told you not to be angry. It was really helpless. I pretended to convey the imperial edict and coaxed him away..." Kangxi said: "You are so brave, even pretending to convey the imperial edict."
This kind of thing can be done, but because you are loyal to me and you are dedicated to protecting the late emperor, I will spare you this time. I wonder if you sent Ruidong to see the late emperor.
." I said: "Ruidong didn't know that the old emperor was on Mount Wutai. I was worried that the news of the late emperor's life would spread, so I just lied to him and told him that the emperor was going to Mount Wutai to offer incense, and ordered him to go there secretly to guard against anything suspicious.
All the people will be arrested and tortured."
Kangxi nodded and said: "That being said, we are still not sure whether what Hai Dafu said is true. No matter what, we still have to go. If my father is really alive, I must bring him back." I
When I heard that his tone had improved and he seemed to want to send me to Mount Wutai, I was immediately overjoyed. I finally no longer had to go to Qinghai to suffer. I couldn't help but said, "Your Majesty, let's leave now to pick up the old emperor at Mount Wutai."
Kangxi said: "We have to go to Mount Wutai, and we can't throw away the affairs of Qinghai. Why don't we go to Mount Wutai, and you, go to Qinghai, what do you think?" I almost cried, and said, "Your Majesty, the old emperor's
The matter has not yet been determined, so you don't have to rush to take action personally. Why don't you let me go and find out first, and it won't be too late for you to pick up the old prince. I can just arrange for someone to do it for Qinghai, and I guarantee that I won't miss you.
event."
Kangxi thought for a while and said: "The political situation in the capital has been decided, and I can't leave it. It's most appropriate to send you to Mount Wutai. However, the matter in Qinghai used to be important, and I would be a little worried if you didn't go there in person." I
He said anxiously: "Your Majesty, I can definitely arrange things in Qinghai properly. Don't worry. If something goes wrong in the future, you can chop off my head. The old prince can't delay. After all, there is only Ruidong."
There, besides, the Sanlang Cult has just happened in the capital, and Wu Yingxiong has not left the capital yet, so you must not leave the capital."
Kangxi sighed: "That's all we can do. Make preparations, arrange the procurement in Qinghai and overseas, and leave for Mount Wutai in the next two days." I was overjoyed and said loudly: "Thank you, Your Majesty." Kangxi said curiously: "
You do things for me. I should be thanking you, but you thank me instead." I was in a happy mood and said with a smile: "The emperor always sends me interesting things, so I naturally want to thank the emperor.
Kangxi laughed and said, "Don't be such a kid. This is not sending you out for fun. This time you go to Wutai Mountain. You have to do it quietly and don't leak any information. When you come back, I will reward you well."
.”
I kept saying: "Yes, yes, I will fulfill the sacred mandate and complete the errand well." Kangxi said: "I will give you another official position and give you a special order to mobilize the troops along the way to deal with the difficulties along the way.
Something unexpected happened." I said happily: "I haven't achieved much yet, but the emperor appointed me an official again. I... this... feel a little embarrassed. I don't know what official position the emperor gave me." Kangxi wrote on a piece of paper.
He started writing on the letterhead and said: "You still know how to be embarrassed, so please do a good job for me. I will first carry your flag and reward you for being a Manchu, and then I will make you the deputy commander of the Xiaoqi Camp. You
What do you think?" I knew a long time ago that Kangxi was going to grant me an official title, and sooner or later he would change me to a Manchu, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly. For a moment, my heart was in a mess, I didn't know whether it was happiness or worry. When Kangxi saw me
There was no movement, and he handed me the paper sign in his hand and said with a smile: "This is a high-ranking official of the second rank. Why, don't you want it?"
At this point, I had no choice but to thank you and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I didn't know that the Vice-Capital Commander was a second-rank official, but when you told me, I understood." Kangxi laughed and said, "As long as you do your job well, you will become a first-rank official in the future.
Member, that is not impossible." I glanced at the edict in my hand and said, "Your Majesty, you still have to write me three edicts, one for cultivating land in Qinghai, one for overseas purchases, and one for Ruidong.
This is a secret edict, and it also fulfills my lie of pretending to pass on the imperial edict." Kangxi started writing again, and said with a smile: "You are doing mischief outside, but let me wipe your ass. In this way, I will let him be a knight.
The battalion commander is your commander, and I want him to be at your disposal."
After taking the imperial edict, I carefully folded it one by one, put it in my arms, and said, "Your Majesty, I will bid you farewell now. I will arrange things and leave the capital within a day or two. Please take care of yourself."
Kangxi said: "I am very safe in Beijing. You should be more careful when you go out."
Kangxi said: "Xiaobao, your trip to Mount Wutai has been very hard. I won't blame you if you do some extraordinary things along the way. If money is tight along the way and you see someone with more money, just grab it.
When you come back in the future, I will send someone to pay it back for you. However, you can't do evil things to other people's beautiful women out of lust, otherwise, I will cut you into pieces and make you a eunuch."
