Thirty-seventh time, seeking to seize the crown prince secretly recruiting troops, raising suspicion of Kangxi
Yin Reng is indeed an Adou who cannot be helped. Although Wang Guan and others tried their best to support him, his temperament became very stubborn and surly, and he refused to accept a word, which made several people feel discouraged. Punish corrupt officials, single-mindedly There have been various discussions among the courtiers about the strict punishment of Yinhu's party members; in addition, he openly and covertly resisted the Kangxi tax exemption, which made the discussion even more heated. From the 49th to the 51st year of Kangxi, Yinreng was in charge of the study room The vote was planned to approve the red power, and Qi Hetuo, Geng E, Luo Xin, Zhan Mingyou and other servants were assigned to foreign posts to take charge of military power, and were promoted successively; in one breath, Cai Jing, Wan Xinmin, Feng Yunchun and others were locked up. These people were all disciples of Ma Qi, and they attracted more and more attention from the government and the public. But I don’t know what Kangxi was thinking. He wrote an accurate report, but he seemed to ignore it and ignored it. "Baye Party" However, Yin was immersed in the Ministry of War, rectifying ministry affairs, going out to inspect river and water transportation, and carefully handling errands. Within the jurisdiction, no matter which elder's family was private, meritorious deeds would be rewarded, and transgressions would be punished. The voice of the wise became louder every day. Since then, Yin Zhen and Yin Xiang have come to help Yin Reng with the ministry affairs, while working diligently on errands. Unknowingly, they have promoted Nian Gengyao to the governor of Sichuan, and their disciples Li Wei and Yue Zhongqi have been promoted to the chief envoy to other provinces, Dai Duo. He was also released to build the Zhangzhou Road in Fujian. The three pillars of Yinfeng, Yinzhen, and Yinhu, and the other elder brothers had their own ideas. It was actually the Eight Immortals crossing the sea, each showing his magical powers.
It was the Double Ninth Festival, and the city of Beijing was full of wind and rain. In previous years, at this time, every household would bring wine to the mountains. The weather this year was not good, but in order to ward off the cold and bid farewell to the autumn, some people would inevitably have a family dinner and have a drink. After Yin finished handling the ministry affairs, he ordered The officials dispersed early and sorted out the documents with their own hands. Just as they were about to return home, they saw Ren Wenyu, the "staff official", carrying a stack of military reports into the signing room. He then smiled and said: "Why didn't you go back? You still have to send it sooner or later." "Official documents, you do your work sincerely, but it's a pity that the Fourteenth Master has no time to appreciate you. I still have to go to the palace to pay my respects!" Ren Wenyu presented the document, bowed and smiled and said: "This is the watch seal of King Dulbert of Tibet. The Fourteenth Master As soon as we arrived, the Ministry of War ordered us to wake you up even in the middle of the night as long as there is a military report from Western Xinjiang. How dare you delay it?" Yin was looking at Ren Wenyu. When he heard this, he hurriedly opened it and looked at it. But it is a translation of Manchu, Tibetan and Chinese. It reads: "For the purpose of Celing Alabutan's subordinate Celing Dunduobu led his troops to attack Tibet, I have sent a petition to the King of Tibet, Dulbert." Long live the heavenly troops that will be sent out quickly to protect the territory..." Yin couldn't help but cheer up, and said with a smile: "Okay! It's so fast, you can't even translate the text properly, this job is done beautifully!" After saying that, he held up the book. , patted Ren Wenyu on the shoulder, and drove straight to Yuqing Palace in a sedan chair to see Yinreng. As soon as he passed through Jingyun Gate, he saw several eunuchs holding umbrellas, and the third elder brother Yinzhi and the seventeenth elder brother were stepping on the mud. Lu, chatting and laughing, came over, and Yin stood still. When they came over, he just greeted Yinzhi and said with a smile: "I haven't seen the third brother for a long time. Where will you and the seventeenth brother go now? I heard that "Ancient and Modern Books" "Collection" has been printed. I have something to say first. When the book comes out, you have to give me a copy!" Seeing Yinli greeting him, he hurriedly supported himself and said with a smile, "Don't fool me with this false article. People say you are easy to fool. , In fact, I am the most refreshing, and you are so smart! We are extremely busy, but you are reading a lot of books, studying chess and painting in the third brother's house. I'm afraid you will be in the advanced class in a few years, right? "
"You are a popular figure now, why are you jealous of us?" Yinzhi has not seen you for many days, and he looks more and more chic, thinner, and a little pale. "I will give you a set of books, okay! But you also have to give me something.
.I see that your villa in Hongguoyuan is not bad, with mountain pavilions, pools and pavilions, small and exquisite, and authentic Jiangnan style. How about giving it to me? - Don’t laugh, this book has six volumes and ten thousand volumes, six thousand one hundred and nine.
It is a collection of ancient and modern knowledge and contains the outline of the universe. There are only sixty-five volumes printed in total, but they are not worth your small garden? I want to come and plan to reward Mr. Chen Menglei. Long live the Lord personally visited Songhe Shanfang three times and compiled them one by one.
I've read the catalog!" Yin was secretly surprised and said with a smile: "I didn't say no, I just scared you! What's it worth? Just ask Mr. Chen to move in tomorrow." The three brothers
After chatting affectionately for a while, Yinzhi invited Yinzhi to meet the prince. Yinzhi smiled and said, "I don't dare. We don't agree with each other." Ama asked about the words in the book "Hong Fan"
I can't remember a few words at the moment. I just went to Wenhua Hall to look for books, and I have to go to Changchun Garden to recover!" After that, he and Yinli left.
Looking at Yinzhi's back, Yin couldn't help but feel envious. If he hadn't been involved in this terrible whirlpool of party strife, wouldn't he be like Yinzhi, living in the palace and in the spring forest? How could he be in his arms sooner or later?
They all carry a bag of crane crown red! The third brother seizes the throne, fails to hit the target, does not try again, and retreats to write a book. What a smart man! He was thinking wildly and unknowingly entered the Yuqing Palace.
The Yuqing Palace was really lively. Yinfeng sat at the head, followed by Yinzhen and Yinxiang, followed by Ma Qi, Zhang Tingyu, Wang Guan, Zhu Tianbao and Chen Jiayou, sitting in turn. There were delicate palace dots on the table, and they were talking.
The sea and the sky are vast. From a distance, I heard Yinzhen laughing and saying: "Is the song that my thirteenth brother sang just now a southern song or a northern song?" Yinxiang said with a smile: "I only sing the songs with good lyrics, and I don't know.
I’ve heard of the similarities and differences between Northern and Southern music! But they have the same tune but the same effect, and they have a wonderful sound!”
"That's different." Yinzhen peeled off a pine nut, tasted it, and said, "Southern music has four tones, and northern music has only three tones. In the northern music, the entrance tone has three upright tones, did you know?"
Yin hurriedly came in to greet him and sat down next to Yin Xiang. Yinzhen said: "This is just fun. Three or four times, as long as it sounds good, it is a good tune. You haven't heard the joke, there is only one in Lao Liu's family
The civet cat was bitten by a mouse and had its nose bitten. I took the cat to Laoba's drugstore to find medicine to treat the injury. He said the cat was gentle and very caring - no matter how beautiful a cat like this is, what's the use?" He didn't finish.
Everyone was already laughing.
Yin laughed so hard that he said: "This is true. Fourth brother is not lying to anyone. That cat never catches mice, and it is also called 'Fonu'. I have seen it, and it looks like a lover."
As beautiful as a tiger, it lies down all day long, muttering quietly, like preaching the Buddha's name - but was bitten by a mouse!" Zhu Tianbao said with a smile: "The students have never heard of it, and they made up a piece of "Call for Cats". Prince, would you like to listen to it?"
He coughed lightly and recited aloud:
Those who catch mice and enslave the Buddha are cowardly by nature but pretend to be kind. They imitate the chanting of the Snow-clad Lady and act like a gentleman. They are lazy during the day and don’t care about turning the flower pots; they use the bamboo trunks to climb the wall.
Playing on Amitabha's seat, he is like an old monk who is in samadhi, neither seeing nor hearing, the puppet appears on the stage, silent and odorless. He is indecisive, tolerates adultery, and then takes advantage of the evil of destroying the nose, and suffers the poison of grinding his teeth! Yama is afraid of ghosts, and sweeps away his majesty; the general is timid.
Soldiers lose their discipline...
Before he finished reciting, everyone was already cheering. Yinreng smiled for some reason, his face darkened, and he changed the subject lightly: "Okay, we had a good time, it's time to get down to business. Fourteenth, what's the matter?
What?"
"That's natural. If Yin doesn't go to the Three Treasures Hall without anything, it disturbs the prince's happiness." However, Yin heard that "asking for cats" seemed to be talking about Yin Wu, and he was thinking about making up something in return.
, hearing Yinreng ask, he quickly stood up, bowed, and handed over the memorial he brought with both hands. Yinreng flipped through it for a long time, frowned and said, "Speaking of Alabutan, how kind the court was to him! If it weren't for the emperor,
Amma went on three personal expeditions and defeated Galdan. How could he be where he is today? In the early years, he was just restless. He fought with King Ximengu Khan for pasture in Khalkha, thinking that he would just tolerate it. Now he is causing trouble.
When it comes to raising troops to enter Tibet and rebelling, I really don’t know what kind of medicine I have taken!” Yin laughed and said: “This is really ‘six thieves playing on the throne of Amitabha’, and it has reached the point of being intolerable. To put it bluntly, our two brothers
Fourteen, are they all ‘Buddha slaves’?”
Only then did everyone realize that something big had happened in Qinghai in the west. Although this incident had been turbulent for several years, it was not unexpected. However, the troops and horses were dispatched and the country was doing important things. They did not dare to take it lightly. They all got up from their seats and stood respectfully. Ma Qi
He said: "The military situation cannot be delayed. We must inform the emperor immediately and appoint the commander-in-chief to discuss the dispatch of troops." Yinreng said in a deep voice: "It is easy to say that troops will be dispatched, but the armaments are not in place, the food and wages are not adjusted, and the attack is thousands of miles away. It is difficult to predict the chance of victory!
When the emperor asks, we can't answer with empty words. Who will be the general, where to deploy the troops, sources of pay, and food channels must be carefully considered and prepared. Only after the report is made clear can the order be implemented." Seeing Ma Qi's embarrassment, Zhang Tingyu knew that his
Seeing the situation, he nodded and said: "In my opinion, the source of salary will naturally come from the southeast. But it seems a bit slow to transport it from the canal to Zhili and then distribute it to Gansu and Shaanxi. It is better to ask for an order to mobilize Shandong, Shanxi, and Henan.
There are grains stored in the warehouses of Gansu and Shaanxi provinces. There are also a lot of old grains in the departments and wards set up in Yulin and Yan'an. They are also transferred to Xining for later use. New grains transported by canal are supplied one after another. In this way, the grains in the warehouses are also updated, and the military grains are also updated.
But in case of emergency, wouldn’t it be thoughtful?”
"The prince has originally ordered the garrison at Gubeikou to be transferred to Shunyi." Ma Qi kept muttering about the transfer of prisoners, thinking that it was too close to the capital. After hearing this, he hurriedly took the opportunity to say: "These fifteen thousand people
Although they are stationed outside the mouth for the rotation period, they are originally soldiers trained to prepare for Mongolian trouble. As a rule, the original garrison in Shunyi cannot be moved until next year, so why go to such trouble and cause trouble? In my opinion, it is better to unite Tuohe together.
It is the right thing to directly transfer Hangu Pass to stand by." Yinreng said "hmm" and said: "The use of troops in the northwest is a matter of overall situation. This is a routine transfer of defense! If it is not appropriate to transfer Shunyi, just transfer Fengtai - you can
They were transferred from Gubeikou to Hangu Pass, but they couldn't fight for a while. It's the same outside the Great Wall and the same bitter cold, so that's why they deserve to be criticized!" Ma Qi's motion was not approved and he wanted to transfer Tuoheqi to Hangu Pass.
On the outskirts of Beijing, I couldn't help but be startled. I thought it would be better not to say anything, because I said again: "Fengtai is in Kinki, and this matter must be reported to the Holy One, and it will be accomplished only if there is a decree!"
"Really? Is there such a case?" Yinreng said with a smile, "Why don't I know? That year when the emperor went on the Western Expedition, I dispatched 40,000 green troops to station in Xishan without asking for an order." Seeing Zhang Tingyu moving his lips.
He also wanted to interject, so he said: "Let this matter be as it is, we will discuss it later. I think if the rebellion in Alabutan had been in the early years, my father would have fought it personally. The will of the son will be inherited by the father, and it will be the same through the ages. The age of the father has passed.
Gao, I should be personally involved in the Western Expedition. I am young and have little experience, so this is an opportunity."
No one expected that Yin Reng would propose his own expedition, and they were all stunned for a moment. Ma Qi was afraid that he would cause trouble by moving Tuo Heqi's troops too close. Since the prince was about to leave the capital, it seemed that he was paranoid, so he temporarily put down
Zhang Tingyu became more and more suspicious. Fengtai is the gateway to the capital, and the prince himself has a hundred thousand soldiers. Once a sudden change occurs, it will be really unimaginable! After a long time, he frowned and said: "Prince, you are the crown prince. There is something going on in Qinghai and Tibet. After all,
It’s no better than Galdan did in the past. This mission can be handled by a general, so why bother you to do it yourself?”
"What Zhang Zhongtang said is true!" Yin said loudly, "It's best for me to do this job! The emperor appointed me to manage the military department, and I'm afraid no one is familiar with the situation of military pay. I am willing to issue a military order and try my hand at it. If I can't get the solution,
If you want Dunduobu's head, I will bring my own head to see you!" Yinxiang had already heard it and said, "I have to do this job! Old Fourteenth, don't think that you are the only one who understands military affairs. I don't know either.
Vague! Fourteenth brother, you just need to pay me your salary, don’t imitate—" He stopped suddenly and stopped talking.
But everyone here knows that it is Suo'etu who "does not learn". During the Kangxi expedition to the west, Suo'etu had ulterior motives, blocked food routes, delayed military flights, and almost starved Kangxi to death in the Gobi Desert. But Suo'etu was Yinreng.
My maternal uncle, Yinxiang, knew he had made a mistake, so he sipped tea to cover it up.
"This matter should be discussed but not decided." Yinreng seemed not to have heard Yinxiang's words, and stood up and said: "Ma Qi, Tingyu, the three of us will go to Changchun Garden right now to see how Long Live is decided. We will listen later.
That’s the will.”
Watching their brothers walk out, Wang Tuan was silent for a long time. He stood up, glanced at Chen Jiayou and Zhu Tianbao coldly, sighed and said, "I feel bad and have to go back. When the prince comes back, please report it to me."
After that, he staggered away.
Fang Bao accompanied Kangxi in Changchun Garden. It rained heavily and he didn't go out for a whole day. He first practiced mathematics, played chess for a while, and wrote for a while. When he saw that the weather still didn't clear up, he decided to quit.
Returning to the city. Just then Li Dequan came up and said: "Long live the prince and Zhang Tingyu, Ma Qi handed over the sign at the east gate to please see you!"
"Fang Bao, you don't want to go back. Although it is inconvenient to stay in the garden, I will send someone to the Bodhi Temple outside the garden to tell you that you will stay there tonight." Kangxi looked at the heavy rain outside the temple and said, "Li Dequan went to deliver the order.
Tell them to wait in Songhe's study, and I'll be there soon."
Fang Bao smiled and said: "Your Majesty, I have no relatives. Although I am clothed in civilian clothes, since I am the one who goes to the study, I should go over and wait on you. Otherwise, wouldn't it be convenient to ask them to come over? It also saves me from going there in the rain."
"Ignore them." Kangxi said, "Sit down, there is something I have long wanted to hear your opinion on, but I want to take another look and think about it - once I say it, it will be hard to take it back!" Fang Bao
Seeing that Kangxi had an unusually solemn look on his face and was sitting across from him with his body slanted in confusion, he was about to ask, but he heard Kangxi suddenly say: "Mr. Fang, if someone wants to mutiny in Chenqiao today, how confident are you?"
Fang Bao was startled, his beard trembled rapidly, his eyes shone brightly, and he exclaimed: "How can this happen? How can it be reasonable? How can it be such a feeling?"
"Yes." Kangxi said calmly, "Someone has already transferred 15,000 soldiers from Gubeikou to Shunyi behind my back. Ruijian camp, carrying the Ministry of War on its back, has cast ten red cannons - they have been sharpened.
The teeth are about to bite you!" Fang Bao shuddered, and when he stared at Kangxi, he leaned back slightly on his chair and said: "Soldiers are fierce! The emperor is extremely suspicious! But as far as I can see,
Not to mention that there were only more than 10,000 people, even 400,000, it was all in vain! Because the situation was completely different from that of Chai Shizong. Zhao Kuangyin had already emptied the court of troops. In today's world, power lies in the hands of the master. Once he ascends the city and calls,
It collapsed instantly!" Kangxi sneered and said, "That's right! It's a pity that some people are so stupid that they force an egg to hit a stone. What can I do? It's a pity that the rebels are my own flesh and blood, so this is quite difficult!"
Fang Baofang was startled for a moment and said nothing for a while. It was related to the fate of the country and the flesh and blood of the Tian family. He had to think more about it. After the silence passed, Fang Baofang smiled bitterly and said: "I already know who the emperor is referring to. This kind of
The matter must be dealt with quickly before there is any real evidence. Once a big change occurs, although the emperor is kind, he may inevitably use the criminal code in accordance with the national law! The emperor and his ministers are righteous, and the love between father and son cannot have both. Alas... The prince of the world
, abolishing it once and for all will not be a blessing to the country..."
Kangxi's heart was also very heavy, and he took a deep breath, "I have done my best to benevolent and righteous. If he wants to remove someone from his official position, I will remove it for him; if he wants to reward someone, even if I don't want to, I will reward him on his behalf."
"Now that he wants my life again, should I rely on him?" Fang Bao said anxiously: "Since the emperor does not want to be punished for treason, I ask the emperor to be lenient and not always think like this. If you say something occasionally, you will be punished."
It will cause big trouble! Besides, worry hurts the liver and is very bad for the dragon's body." Kangxi nodded and said, "You are right." Then he stood up and shouted: "Change clothes and go to Songhe's study! Fang Bao, don't go.
, avoid it."
Fang Bao hurriedly bowed and said: "Since I have pledged myself to the king, I should not evade everything. I just want to be safe. Besides, I have been accompanying you these days. If you avoid it now, it will only increase people's suspicion. Please go with me!"
Yinreng and others were waiting impatiently in Songhe's study. In the distance, they heard Xing Nian shouting in the rain: "Long live the Lord's departure!" They all walked out of the corridor and knelt down in a row. When Kangxi took the elixir,
Qi, Yinreng hurriedly paused and said: "Your Majesty Yinreng respectfully invites Emperor Ama Jin'an!" Fang Bao followed Kangxi, only paying attention to Ma Qi and others, and then followed in. After a long time, Fang Bao heard Kangxi cough lightly.
, ordered: "Everyone, come in."
Everyone filed in and saw Kangxi wearing a green felt and satin crown on his head, an azurite satin lambskin jacket and a maroon silk cotton robe, and a pair of green satin cold-lid soap boots at his feet sitting on a wooden stand, sitting dignifiedly.
Next to the big Kang coffee table, everyone couldn't help but wonder: It's not a court meeting, so why are you dressed so neatly?
"It's raining so heavily that it's hard for you to come in." Kangxi said kindly as if nothing happened, "What's the important matter?" Yinreng hurriedly explained everything that was discussed in Yuqing Palace one by one, and then said
"My son, Yinxiang, and Yindu are willing to personally lead the army in the Western Expedition. My son has been in the palace since he was young and has no experience. I would like to take this opportunity to make contributions to the country and ask my father for his decision!" Kangxi listened quietly and said with a smile.
: "They are all people with great ambitions! But I'm afraid that your talk on paper may not be effective in battle. According to my daily opinion, it seems that Yin has a little prejudice against the general. Do you think so, Ma Qi?"
Ma Qi hurriedly said: "Yes. The fourteenth elder brother once trained the Green Battalion in Fengtian and searched and suppressed the bandits in Changbai Mountain. He was quite organized. In the past two years, he has been in charge of the Ministry of War and has achieved great results. However, in my humble opinion, although the King of Tibet petitioned for troops
The memorial seems to be prepared for a rainy day, and the situation is not very dangerous. Our army rushed out immediately after hearing the alarm. Victory is not enough to show our power. Occasionally there are small setbacks, but they are taken lightly by foreign barbarians. Therefore, we should proceed with caution. In order to achieve full success!" "You!
You've made progress!" Kangxi said with a smile, "I thought you were careless and impetuous, and only wanted your 'loyalty'. I have been separated for three days, so I should look at you with admiration! This matter is not suitable for a big fight now. The imperial court should send a general to be willing to do so.
There is a military parade in Shaanxi with a great display of majesty and grandeur. If Celing Dunduobu retreats when he sees the difficulty, it would be best to go his own way. When the court is ready, it will not be too late to start the conquest again." After hearing this, Yinreng understood.
He had no hope, so he said: "Father, the Holy Ming! In that case, please send an edict from the emperor to go to Xining with Geng'e, the Minister of War!"
"Geng E?" Kangxi suddenly looked up to the sky and laughed, "You protected Geng E's bribery case, and now you want to protect him to lead the army. You have good intentions!" When Yin Reng heard that the tone was wrong, he hurriedly kowtowed: "
There is a reason for Geng E's case, and there is no solid evidence. After all, he sent out troops several times, and there are not many generals who can lead troops now. His son has no personal feelings for him, and he asks his father for a holy lesson!" Kangxi snorted and sneered.
: "What holy book of the gods? What you said is as sweet as honey! What did you do down there, it's chilling to think about it!"
This was no longer a political discussion. Everyone except Fang Bao was shocked. They didn’t know why Kangxi was so angry suddenly and without warning! Yinreng was stunned by the question. After a long time, he said in a daze: "My son is here."
I have not done anything indecent or deviant, please give me a lesson from my father!"
"If you want others to not know, unless you don't do it yourself, you will know what you are doing!" Kangxi chuckled and said, "There is a saying about the 'Five Blessings' in "Shang Shu Hong Fan". I specially asked the third elder brother to check it out.
Among the five blessings, the word "longevity" is good enough for me because of my age; the word "rich", since I have the world, needless to say; the word "kangning", although it is a small regret, is still acceptable.
; this 'you are good at virtue', I can also understand the virtues and policies - among these five blessings, why should I put 'testing one's life' at the end? I think 'achieving a good death' is the most difficult
. Emperor Zhi of the Han Dynasty was clever and clever, but he could not escape the poisonous cake. Zhao Kuangyin was a hero, and the sound of the shadow of the candle and ax when he died has become an eternal mystery! Although I am not sensitive, I have made mistakes before, how can I easily fall into the hands of rats!
"After that, he spat hard at Yin Reng, stood up, opened the door violently, and walked away!
A gust of wind and raindrops rushed into the study. Yinreng and others fell on the ground and were half numb with shock. (To be continued)
