The sixth time, Kangxi read strategy theory with great enthusiasm
The secret of Shunzhi's death was no longer mentioned. The big and small things that happened in the palace at the beginning of Kangxi's accession were soon gradually forgotten by people. The officials in charge of the daily life of the inner court still took the facts as they were and dealt with them seriously.
He made superficial articles: "In the spring of the 18th year of Shunzhi, on the first month of the lunar month, Renzi... died in Yangxin Hall"; "Japanese hegemons and others were good at riding horses and were executed in the city"; "The eunuch Wu Liangfu was executed in Yuehua Gate"...
At that time, only a very few careful people kept it in mind and pondered the mystery. In fact, Sony's illness was a barometer of the government at that time. If his illness was a little more serious, something would happen in the inner court. Now, Sony's illness is getting worse and worse.
The situation in the palace became increasingly tense.
As Obai watched his power grow stronger and stronger, and recently conquered Ebilong, he didn't take Suksaha seriously at all. He thought that in the enclosure twenty years ago, Dorgon favored
Zhengbai Banner used Zhengbai Banner as an excuse to take advantage of Kangxi's young age and Sony's serious illness to exchange the good land that was forcibly taken away by Zhengbai Banner, so as to expand his estate. As a result, people were even more panicked and had no peace. In the blink of an eye, it was already
By the sixth year of Kangxi's reign, Kangxi had been in charge for more than a year, and some unexpected troubles arose due to the opening of subjects to recruit scholars.
The day's examination was over. Wu Ciyou left his room in the examination room and walked onto the street. He really felt as if he was recovering from a serious illness. The strong sunlight shone on each of the pale faces, as if the whole street was shaking, shaking people's heads.
Dizzy. People on the street looked at the group of "emperor's disciples" coming out of the examination room with speculative eyes, sizing up which one of them would become the Optimus Prime of the Qing Dynasty. They looked forward to the peace of the country and the people.
Wu Ciyou stumbled back to Yuepeng Store, and it was already the time before the license was signed. He Guizhu and the guys met him at the door of the store. When he saw him, he hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Congratulations, second master, this time I am going to be the best - why?"
You didn't even take a sedan chair, you just walked back?" As he spoke, he asked the guys to get hot water and asked him to wash his face and feet. Wu Ciyou forced a smile, then sat down against the counter and said, "Thank you for your kind words, boring.
After a few days, I wanted to get some air and stretch my legs, so I walked back." Just as he was talking, Mingzhu came out from behind with a smile, and hurried forward to meet Li.
Wu Ciyou smiled and said: "You have such fast legs and feet - are you proud of your writing?" Mingzhu frowned and said: "My writing is ordinary, I just wrote a policy paper randomly and handed it in to take care of my responsibility." Wu Ciyou said with a smile.
: "Two times in a row, our brothers didn't get any luck. This time, I broke the pot and actually gave him an article "On Enclosure and Chaos of the Country."
Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard what he said. He Guizhu said hurriedly: "Okay, my second master, how can you stir up a hornet's nest? The chief examiner of Jishi is a close confidant of Ao Bai! You take the title, it doesn't matter whether he encloses the land or not!"
Mingzhu stumbled and said: "Brother is too arrogant, you will suffer a loss!"
However, Wu Ciyou casually wiped his face with a warm towel and said: "When the country recruits talents, it should be allowed to speak its mind. What are you afraid of? I have not slandered the imperial court!" After hearing this, He Guizhu secretly complained in his heart, shook his head and said: "The imperial court? Now
Aozhongtang is the imperial court! But Suksahazhongtang is the main examiner. Such a curtain maker may not dare to show it to Aozhongtang!" Wu Ciyou soaked his feet in the basin and sneered: "I would like him to read
Read, this kind of chaotic exchange of people's fields, forcing the people to go to the mountains and become thieves in the city, is not considered a disaster for the country and the people!"
The words became more convoluted, and Wu Ciyou's face became gloomy again. To be honest, he himself was a little uneasy after appearing on the stage. He originally wrote "well field" in the manuscript, and wanted to insinuate about the enclosure of land, but unexpectedly he quoted a sentence
"The law of Shanghu's lawless kings" in "Lü's Spring and Autumn Annals", after writing it, it turns to the extremely important national policy of enclosure, and it is out of control. "The well fields cannot be restored", this proposed title,
When I was writing the last chapter, I thought the article was wrong. So I decided to write "On Enclosure and Chaos of the Country". I felt quite proud at the moment, but I didn't think much about the consequences. Now that the audience is talking about it, they are also a little confused.
A square inch.
After being dazed for a while, Wu Ciyou came back to his senses and said with a smile: "This is the time of luck and destiny. Just do whatever you want, just let it go!"
After five or six days of no news, Mingzhu felt very uneasy and didn't sleep all night. She got up early the next day, washed up, knocked on the door of an incense shop in Dongshi, bought a pack of incense and came back. After burning it, she took it out.
There was a bronze mirror hanging in the lower room. I knelt on the ground and prayed, muttering something. After praying, I quietly took the mirror and opened the door.
This is called "mirror divination". The next step is to go out with a mirror and take back the first words of the person you meet for analysis. This is the revelation of the "Mirror God" to you.
It was just dawn, and there were only a few people on the street, with no one chatting. He turned a corner and saw a man arguing with the leek seller:
"We agreed on three cents per catty, why can't we do it again? Your leeks have been left overnight and are not very fresh!"
"Tsk, tsk! Look at the stubble, look at the dew! One of them was cut yesterday, and you kicked my ass!"
"I've never eaten pork, and I've never seen a pig go away? Five cents! Come and cool down!" The buyer said and walked away. The leek seller picked up the burden and said, "Don't worry, this dish is great.
, I can’t feed rabbits! If I can’t sell it for myself, I don’t believe it! Grandma’s.”
After hearing these words, Mingzhu felt like she was in a fog, thinking all the way back: "The leeks were cut... but the stubble was from yesterday... you can cool down... you can't sell it for yourself - Chaotic."
He's dead, what kind of things are these? Everything seems to be unlucky, but it doesn't seem to be anything. I don't believe it. There seems to be something in mind, but it may not be..." Mingzhu was thinking too much,
Still can't figure it out.
When they returned to the store, they saw Wei Dongting and He Guizhu also at Wu Ciyou's place. The three of them were talking happily when they saw Mingzhu come in and hurriedly stood up and offered their seats. Wei Dongting said with a smile: "You went out early in the morning, why are you in such a hurry?"
Mingzhu smiled and told everyone what "Jing Ting" said. He Guizhu laughed first: "Jing Ting is a plaything for old ladies. How can a man carry a mirror and eavesdrop on other people's words like a thief?
Yes? I know what's on your mind. Firstly, you want to ask about your fame, and secondly, you want to predict good or bad luck. I think it's better to use Fuji."
The existing incense table and paper burning paper in the store were carried out by the waiters. They carried the sand tray and asked for a wooden pen. A wooden pen hung under a large T-square stick. Mingzhu burned the incense and prayed in a serious manner, and said: "I will pray for my eldest brother first."
!”
Wei Dongting and He Guizhu supported the frame one by one, and saw the wooden pen moving like flying, drawing several circles on the sand table, and then drawing horizontally. This picture touched Wu Ciyou's mind.
I couldn't help but pay attention, and saw that the pen stopped and the words came out, but it was a song "Recalling Qin E":
Guan Shanyue, the straight road is difficult to walk, the bridge is like iron, the bridge is like iron, step by step, step by step, he stumbles. Yulou ordered to drink and dream of He Jie, handing over the ancient road, it is difficult to say goodbye. It is difficult to say goodbye, the love between children is long, and the pure nature is self-purifying!
Wu Ciyou looked at it and laughed and said: "This Yaxian is really a close friend. No matter whether it is good or bad, it really suits my taste!" Then he looked at the pearl, but there was only the word "catch", and there was no more invitations.
Words come.
Mingzhu was so anxious that she knelt down and said, "Please give me a few more words. This word is really difficult to parse." After saying that, she smoothed the sand table with her hands and looked at the ji. The shelf only moved slightly.
, it was still the word "catch", but it didn't move. He wanted to ask for the pearl again, but He Guizhu advised: "No need to ask anymore, it must be this word, and you will be able to use it for your whole life."
So everyone gathered around Wu Ciyou and asked him to solve the problem. Wu Ciyou said with a smile: "I never believe in these deceptions. Life and death are determined by fate, and wealth and honor are in heaven, how can we leave it to ghosts and gods?" He pondered for a while and said, "
However, it might as well be treated as a child's play. For my song "Recalling Qin'e", I won't talk about the second half of it. The first half of it, "walking forward step by step, stumbling step by step", sets the tone. Since the "que is like iron", of course it cannot be pushed away.
Yes. The second half spreads over the five lakes, but it doesn't seem to be harmful, but it has no fame. - As for the word "catching", it can be broken down into "hands and feet" or "dancing", which indicates auspicious things.
." Mingzhu smiled and said: "Using both hands and feet is for martial arts. Do I rely on fighting to make a living?"
Wei Dongting interjected from the side: "It's hard to tell - Mr. Wu, I think the words 'Yulou Zhaoyin' and 'Jingxing Zijie' are very interesting."
Wu Ciyou laughed and said: "'Yulou Zhaoyin' is the most unlucky thing to do with Li Changji's death ceremony. 'Yulou goes to summon'. What's better? 'Bright nature self-cleansing' just means 'like the moon in the arms' or 'breeze in the sleeves'
', which is in line with his status as a Confucian scholar." What he said made everyone smile.
Wei Dongting smiled and said: "Mr. Wu, it seems that you are not interested in fame anymore?" Wu Ciyou smiled and said: "It's just detachment. If you say you are not interested in fame, what am I doing here in this prosperous capital after failing the exams? Fame is nothing.
A gentleman can only take what he has heard directly, not what he hears from what he has heard!"
Wei Dongting cupped his hands and said again: "Sir, your magnanimity and magnanimity are admirable. However, you are straightforward in stating current affairs. Aren't you afraid of offending the powerful people of the day?" Wu Ciyou sneered and said: "Fame is nothing! No matter how great it is, you can't be as big as the Pearl Brothers."
Come on, tell them to cut the leeks!"
Everyone felt a little awe-struck when they heard this serious remark. Although it was humorous, they did not dare to make jokes and laugh casually. Wei Dongting, however, remained calm and asked, "What is your next plan, sir?"
Wu Ciyou was waiting for an answer when he suddenly heard the sound of gongs announcing the good news outside the gate. Several street gangsters came in with wedding invitations in their hands and shouted: "Who is the Pearl Master? Congratulations on graduating from high school!"
Mingzhu heard this announcement and stood up in a hurry. Suddenly she felt flustered and weak, and she fell back on the chair again. Wu Ciyou was so happy that he stood up and greeted: "Bring some wine to congratulate brother Mingzhu!"
Wei Dongting stepped forward, held Mingzhu's shoulder with his hand and said, "Congratulations to me on the table!" He Guizhu secretly screamed in his heart: "Shame! The second master has good eyesight and almost ruined the noble man in front of this store!"
He came forward in three steps and kowtowed, and said, "Master Mingzhu, I'm so happy to kowtow to you!"
Mingzhu finally woke up from her intoxication, quickly picked up He Guizhu and said, "Happy, everyone is happy! You and I are kind, so we can't do this great gift." The newspapermen had already been shouting: "Please, sir."
Drinking money!" Wei Dongting took out an ingot of about five or six taels of silver from his body and said, "Change it into money and let's go to everyone!" The leader took off his felt hat, accepted the silver reward, and led the gangsters away happily.
The waiters had already arranged the vegetables, and everyone sat down at the table. Wu Ciyou sat on top, Wei Dongting, Mingzhu sat down horizontally, and He Guizhu held a cup below. After drinking for three rounds, Wu Ciyou's face was radiant and he said: "Ciyou.
I originally planned to prepare a banquet to invite friends today, but I thought I would say goodbye to everyone in the next few days and return south with Brother Mingzhu. Now that Brother Mingzhu has won, I have to stay for a few days. Everyone will go back happily." Mingzhu.
He said with a smile: "The fact that I am lucky enough today is all thanks to the blessing of my elder brother! My elder brother is famous all over the world for his moral articles, why not wait for another subject, he is sure to win!" Wu Ciyou smiled but did not answer, but saw Wei Dongting sitting next to him.
He lowered his head and smiled, then asked: "Brother Wei Xian, why are you laughing?"
When Wei Dongting asked, he hurriedly said: "I think what my cousin said is true. What's the harm in Mr. Wu just waiting for another subject?" Wu Ciyou said: "Brother Mingzhu is very lucky. I know that he will definitely pass this subject. Wait.
I haven't seen any news in the past few days, so I thought it was fine. I thought it was correct, but it took my mind off something. When it comes to the ethics of writing, Brother Yu is very ashamed. Don't you know that some people died because of writing, so I don't think about it anymore.
."
Wei Dongting said with a smile: "What you said, sir, is nothing more than 'walking forward, stumbling every step'? These nonsense are not accurate." When everyone saw Wei Dongting talking about "Recalling Qin'e" just now, they couldn't help but look solemn. He Guizhu was on one side.
Holding the pot and pouring wine, he looked at the pearl and saw that his face was full of spring. Although Wu Ciyou looked calm, his brows couldn't help but feel sad. He thought to himself: "This god and Buddha can never go wrong again. As expected, he is dancing with joy."
One step at a time!" But Wei Dongting said again: "Sir, I'm waiting here. I thought there would be some opportunities." Mingzhu also said hurriedly: "Brother, just wait for one more subject!"
Wu Ciyou slowly raised his wine, drank it all in one gulp, and said with a smile: "Okay, brother, I will listen to you!"
On duty on the second day, Wei Dongting came to see Kangxi. As soon as he entered the palace, he smiled and said: "Long live Lord, I got Mr. Wu's paper!" He took out a roll from his sleeve and presented it with both hands. Kangxi hurriedly opened it.
After sealing it, I unfolded it and read it. The thick ink at the beginning of the volume revealed the five words "On Enclosure and Chaos of the Country" which were written in large black and bright circles. I couldn't help but raise my eyebrows and said, "Good words!"
"It's dangerous to say that," Wei Dongting said hurriedly, "Su Zhongtang hid the secret from the deputy chief examiner and went to each room to conduct private inspections. Even the room officer refused to get out..."
Kangxi listened to his ramble and opened the book to read carefully. He was so fascinated that when he was taking a cup of tea, he actually put his hand into the teacup. It was so hot that he shrank his hand and said with a smile: "It's not in vain."
It’s the handwriting of a famous person.—Come, come, read this passage to me!” Wei Dongting hurriedly took it carefully, bowed and read softly:
Fields are the foundation of health, and cloth, millet, and silk are all grown from the soil. The common people in Guizhou rely on them for food, and the ancestral temples and communities rely on them for prosperity. Wherever the order to enclose land for fields comes, the fertile fields turn into the home of elk.
, the streets suddenly grew desolate, hazelnuts and thorns grew. The people were displaced, all industries were withered, those who were ruthless and unyielding became bandits and thieves, and those who followed the law and were kind were frozen and starved. The court had difficulty collecting food from the treasury, and the discipline was not strict; the three armies could not bear the famine.
Suffering, why use one’s life? How can internal and external troubles be quelled? If the people’s sentiments are floating, the country’s foundation will be difficult to consolidate. If people are resentful and the gods are angry, the country will no longer be a country!
After reading this, Wei Dongting took a breath and saw that Kangxi's face turned red and he was pacing back and forth with his hands behind his back. He thought he was angry and stopped talking. However, he heard Kangxi sternly say: "How dare he write such a good article?
Don’t you dare to read it? Read it!”
Wei Dongting had no choice but to raise his voice and recite loudly:
...Only today, the Ming Dynasty, the Supreme Being, has issued several decrees to stop the forbidden areas and exchange them for the people's fields since the first year of Kangxi. But those who could not be stopped were because there were traitorous ministers in the court who were causing chaos in the country, and there were fierce and stubborn slaves in the wild.
Treacherous and treacherous...the city foxes, social rats, dominate the people's property, and suck the people's blood. Since the reign of Wang Mang and Tianfeng, for more than a thousand and five hundred years, there has never been such a perverse government!
After Wei Dongting finished reading, he couldn't help but quietly wipe the sweat from his head.
Kangxi listened to him finish reading, took back the policy paper, read it carefully again, and murmured: "Every sentence is a golden stone! Someone said that they want to find a master for me. Isn't this the best master? Why should he bother!"
"Wei Dongting didn't know what he meant by these words, so he had to agree: "Yes. Even Old Master Xiong doesn't dare to say it so bluntly."
"You are right." Kangxi said while handing back the policy papers, "I want a master like this, and you must try to keep him."
Wei Dongting hurriedly replied: "Hey! Don't worry, Your Majesty, this slave just came from Yuepeng shop, he can't leave."
"Okay." Kangxi said with a smile, "First take this policy scroll to Suk Saha and keep it somewhere else. If it is leaked, will he still be alive?"
The monarch and his ministers were just talking about their speculations when they suddenly saw the young eunuch Zhang Wanqiang holding a scroll of memorials and kneeling down to play: "Master Sony is seriously ill."
Kangxi's face suddenly changed color, he stood up and asked, "How is it?"
"I'm afraid it's not good!"
"Go and take a look. It's really not good. Come and tell me quickly."
Wei Dongting interjected from the side and said: "Since Long live the Lord is so anxious, why don't you come in person?"
When Kangxi heard that he was right, he asked someone to prepare the sedan chair. Zhang Wanqiang, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly raised his head and said, "Master can't go!"
"how?"
"As soon as the master leaves, Mr. Sony will have to be vacant!"
This sentence reminded Kangxi. When a minister is seriously ill, it is an honor for the master to visit the patient. If you don't want to die, you have to die! This is clearly stated in the "ancestral family law". Kangxi has heard such things a lot since he was a child, so of course he understands. Think about it.
Thinking that he had no choice, he had to sit down again. He thought: "Although this Sony is old, as long as he is around, Obai will not be arrogant. He has always relied on this veteran minister as his support. If he can really recover,
, if you go by yourself, won't you harm him instead?" Thinking of this, Kangxi waved his hands dejectedly. Zhang Wanqiang stood up and left.
When the clock struck eleven o'clock, which was the beginning of noon, the auxiliary minister Suk Saha handed over a sign asking to see him. Kangxi was worried and had nowhere to vent, so he stood up and said to Wei Dongting: "Follow me and see you at the Yangxin Hall.
Him." Wei Dongting said hurriedly: "This slave is only a sixth-grade bodyguard now and cannot accompany the minister alone." Kangxi smiled and said: "That's okay! Ask him to come to the study. I will see him here, so you don't have to.
I avoided it - it will come sooner or later, what's the matter?"
Suk Saha looked pale, staggered into the upper study, kowtowed to the ground and said: "Long live! I ask you to kill Ao to thank the world!" With one sentence, the faces of everyone present changed drastically. Kangxi was also extremely surprised in his heart, and tried to control it.
He asked excitedly: "Obai is an important minister of the imperial court. What crime has he committed? Have your assistant ministers held a meeting about this?"
Suk Saha was not afraid. He took out a piece of paper from his sleeve and read it. He raised his head and said calmly: "The land enclosure order was originally a bad rule of the previous dynasty. When Taizu died, he wanted to get rid of it. Now that I have entered Guan Dingding, I have
China should recuperate and recuperate, support mulberry farmers, and enrich the country and strengthen the people." Kangxi did not wait for him to finish, and asked hurriedly: "Last year, when I was not in charge, didn't your assistant ministers already agree to ban the enclosure of land?" Su
Ke Saha kowtowed and said: "Long live the Holy Ming, this is exactly what happened. In the first year of Kangxi's reign, he issued an edict to stop the enclosure of land, and it was reiterated three years ago. However, Obai's Zhenghuang Banner is still enclosing the land to this day, and continues to occupy the areas west of Hulunbuir and east of Horqin.
The land in the south, and even part of the imperial village in Rehe, were enclosed by him. Xiong Ci has fulfilled the terms of this instrument, and I dare to guarantee that every word of it is true! Such an 'auxiliary minister' should be severely punished.
!”
Before he finished speaking, there was only a "bang" sound. Kangxi hit the case with his hand angrily. He stood up and was about to have an attack. Suddenly he remembered what Aunt Sumala said, "Nothing is urgent." He slowly sat down and asked
Said: "Do you have any evidence for what you say?"
Suk Saha kowtowed hurriedly and said: "Long live, you might as well appoint a close relative to patrol the capital to see how many hungry people who have lost their land, lost their jobs and fled to the capital! The minister's house once took in an old entertainer, who came to the capital because of losing his land, and his daughter was killed by Mu
Rima snatched him away and sent him to Obai as a slave. He himself was seriously injured. If he hadn't been gifted with special skills, he might have also been poisoned!"
When Wei Dongting, who was standing by, heard this, his heart skipped a beat. He had been searching for Shi Jianmei and his daughter for several years without any news, and now he finally got some information. But at this time, no matter how anxious he was, he couldn't say a word.
You can't interfere. He straightened his body and listened carefully.
Kangxi snorted, and the huge study room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Kangxi stood up, walked a few steps with his hands behind his back, and asked Suk Saha: "Maybe your land has also been circled.
Are you going?"
Suksaha was startled, and then replied: "Compared with the sufferings suffered by the common people in the world, the little land of the slave is nothing!"
This was a very appropriate statement. Kangxi couldn't help but nodded after hearing it. But after thinking about it, he couldn't approve this chapter of Suk Saha, so he said coldly: "What you said, I personally
You should take a closer look. You and Ao Bai are both auxiliary ministers and have been favored by the late emperor Tuogu. It is only right that we work together. You should step down first."
As soon as Suk Saha left, Kangxi retreated, leaving only Wei Dongting to ask: "How do you think Suk Saha played?" Wei Dongting hurriedly bowed and replied: "I dare not speak nonsense, but there are hungry people inside and outside the capital.
, It is indeed the truth." Kangxi nodded after hearing this and said: "How could I not know that I had no choice but to fine Xiong with half a year's salary, but, alas -" He sighed and became speechless.
After a long while, Kangxi said again: "I know Suk Saha's loyalty. But he doesn't have such great power now, and there are many things he can't accomplish!"
When Wei Dongting saw that Kangxi had told the truth, he smiled and said: "If Long Live gives him more power, wouldn't he be able to do it?" Kangxi smiled bitterly and said: "My 'Long Live' is also in vain, and it is difficult to carry out the decree." Wei Dongting said resolutely.
: "Could it be that there is also a living Cao Cao in the court?"
After hearing this, Kangxi's eyes flashed with excitement, he glanced out the window, looked at Wei Dongting again, and scolded: "Nonsense! There is no Cao Cao! How dare you say such a thing as a slave?"
Although the words were very harsh, he was not angry. Wei Dongting replied repeatedly: "I don't dare! I don't dare!"
Wei Dongting's words were exactly what Kangxi wanted. From the age of six, he read "The Emperor's Heart" and knew that the dignity of an emperor depends not only on God's will and divine will, on benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust, but also on keeping his ministers forever inexplicable.
The temple is deep and far-reaching. The more unpredictable something is, the more mysterious it is, and the more mysterious something is, the more noble it is. This can be said to be an eternal rule. He is very satisfied with how he handled Suk Saha today.
and Wei Dongting's method. He thought to himself: If he goes back to the palace and tells Aunt Sumala, he will definitely get her praise. She will definitely say: "Long live the Holy Priest!"
While he was thinking wildly, Kangxi suddenly saw Zhang Wanqiang standing there with his hands lowered, and asked hurriedly: "How do you like it when you go and take a look?"
Seeing the emperor's question, Zhang Wanqiang hurriedly replied: "Master, Sonny Lao Zhongtang is very ill! The imperial doctor said that he could not survive more than one hour. He seemed to be in good spirits. He himself said that this was called returning to the light, and that it was before his death.
I want to see my master..." As he spoke, his eyes turned red.
Kangxi glanced at Wei Dongting and said: "Prepare the sedan chair. I want to go to Suofu in person to visit the patient. Change into private clothes."
Sony's mansion is located on Yuhuang Temple Street in Fengyiyuan. It was originally the vassal office of the former Ming and Tang Dynasty king Zhu Zaijing. It is a very quiet place. The ancestors decided to reward meritorious ministers, so they gave this courtyard to Sony.
Kangxi rode in a sedan chair and was carried by four people, and Wei Dongting rode with him. It took him half an hour to arrive in front of Sony Mansion. Wei Dongting dismounted first and helped Kangxi get off the sedan.
A Geshiha ran out and said: "Suo Zhongtang is not well and there are no guests!" Kangxi was startled and was about to answer when he saw Wei Dongting take out a Ruyi from his arms and give it to him. He smiled and said: "Excuse me, deacon, take this with you."
When you meet Master Suo'etu, he will know it at a glance."
Not long after Nageshha entered, the middle door suddenly opened wide, and Suo'etu walked out in three or two steps. He kowtowed to the ground and said: "I didn't know that the master was coming in person, and I failed to welcome him from afar. My slave deserves death!"
Kangxi took Suo'etu in his arms and said, "I came here in disguise today to visit and tell my family not to let the news out!" After saying that, he took Suo'etu's hand and walked straight to the back hall.
Sony was half lying on the couch in a daze when he heard Suo'etu say: "Master, you are here!" He opened his eyes and searched around. Kangxi hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Lie down, I am traveling incognito, by the way.
Come and see you."
Sony shook his head, then closed his eyes weakly, and two old turbid tears flowed down silently. Kangxi didn't feel sad when he saw this, and his eyes were filled with tears, but he just held back to prevent them from flowing.
come out.
After a long pause, Sony opened his eyes again. He murmured something he wanted to say but couldn't. He shook his finger and pointed at a black lacquer box on the cabinet. Suo Etu understood and hurriedly took it down.
But seeing the seal attached, he held it to Sony with both hands. Sony struggled to open the seal, but did not open it. He just stared at Wei Dongting without saying a word.
Seeing this, Wei Dongting knelt down on the ground with a "hutong" and said: "Today's matter, only the Holy One, the old master, and the master Suo'etu are here. If I, Wei Dongting, reveal the slightest bit of deception, I will definitely die under the arrows.
Fall into hell forever!" After hearing Wei Dongting's evil oath, Sony nodded and handed the box over.
When Wei Dongting opened it carefully and took a look, he found a plain yellow fold and a white fold. He raised his eyes and looked at Kangxi and said, "Master, here is a will and a will." Kangxi moved his seat.
, sat upright and said decisively: "Read it all to me."
Because it was a substitute performance, Wei Dongting hurriedly knelt down, and Suo Etu also fell on the ground to listen. Wei Dongting first took out the yellow fold, unfolded it, and read in a suppressed voice:
At the age of Lao Ni, I am only serving as an assistant to the government. I cannot help the Holy King achieve the long rule, so I will die with shame! The deadline is approaching, and I am forced to do so by impermanence, and my hatred is boundless. If there is anyone who has to say something to the superior, please express it secretly:
I am assisting my minister Ao Bai. I have been observing his heart for a long time, and I have the intention of being a wolf. However, the crime is not obvious and it is difficult to cut it off. I am afraid that after the Year of the Dog, he will have different aspirations. Is it not that I am fostering carbuncle in the front and causing harm to the back?
Xiong Cilu, a great scholar, and Fan Chengmo are both loyal and good ministers. It is advisable to order them to quickly come up with good strategies to cut off this vicious and stubborn man. The minister asked for pictures on his forehead. Although he is ignorant and illiterate, his loyalty can be learned. I know that his son is better than his father. I have already
I have repeatedly urged him to dedicate his life to serving the Holy One, and I can atone for the sins of one or two. Woohoo! People are about to die, but their words are also good. I pray for the yellow sheep's heart, and I know it!
Although the voice was low, it was extremely clear. After reading this, Suo Etu's face was filled with tears, but he could not lose his voice in front of the king, so he had to lie on the ground and cry blood. After Wei Dongting read the suicide note, he opened the white fold again and saw the numbers in small regular letters on it.
OK, it says:
My son asks for a picture on his forehead: I have always remembered my teachings. Now that I am going on a long journey, I will leave you a few words to express it: After my death, you will be loyal to me and protect the Lord; you must not use your body for personal gain or harm my ambition.
My best advice! If you disobey my instructions, you will not be allowed to see me in the underworld!
When Suo'etu heard this, he couldn't help it anymore and burst into tears with a cry of "Wow". Kangxi was full of sorrow, forced a smile, turned to Sony and said: "Old love, I am sincere, I already know it. Wanwang is relieved to recover from illness.
