Of course, the cousins' fishing was not just about secretly complaining about the emperor's ideas. When Yinti and Rongruo met, they would also talk about some insensitive core topics: such as what memorial he sent that day.
"When the late emperor was still alive, he ordered local governors to seize the land belonging to the clan of the previous dynasty," Rongruo put away his fishing rod and said to Yinti: "But in the last years of the previous dynasty, the clans also went bankrupt one after another, and it became an open secret to secretly sell the imperial village.
Before and after...you can think of it."
"Well, are we going to cry about the temple case again, or are we disturbing the people too much?" Yinti said: "It's been decades, so we won't bring up the old things again, right?"
Rong Ruo shook his head: "That's not true. Local big families, just like the Xu family back then, would gather land when there was peace. The memorials of Cao Ziqing and several governors all talked about this. In recent years, the imperial examinations in Jiangnan have become more and more prosperous, and everyone has big families.
After taking a breather, they are worried that they will build manors full of land and slaves, and then they will have to figure out how to avoid taxes."
At this time, tax avoidance was nothing more than a few methods, usually linked to the imperial examination. Yinti said: "I remember that a few years ago, Fo Lun worked as an errand in Shandong and paid for the food. It is said that the effect was pretty good. And since the time of the late emperor, he has been working hard
It is also quite effective in differentiating the relationship between domestic slaves and the master’s family.”
To say that things of the same nature have the same characteristics, the attack on Jiangnan Manor and the attack on the banner masters are both for the concentration of power of the emperor, so the methods are similar. In the early Shunzhi period and the period of Kangxi's four auxiliary ministers, the remaining power was still there. At present,
It seems like nothing bad happened.
As for small-scale rebellions, this is normal... In such a large country, if there is a drought here today and a flood there tomorrow, no matter how much the court learns lessons to provide disaster relief, as an agricultural empire, it is limited by its capabilities.
will still happen one after another.
At present, all these troubles are caused by Kangxi and the prince. Yinti just stands quietly and watches, waiting to see what the future of Shen Liao and others will be like this year when Ertai will be tested.
The students of the Banner people who wanted to stand out in the imperial examinations had to take the exams. The princes, princes and grandsons in and outside the palace, and the clan children also had to take the exams. After many years, Yinti finally came to the Forbidden City as a "father who sent his son to study":
Today is the day when the emperor's grandchildren enter the palace to study.
They are said to be the imperial grandchildren, but there are actually only a few of them. The eldest is Deshou, the middle ones are Honghan from the Yinti family, Hongxi from the Yinreng family, the youngest is Hongqing from the Yinti family, and the other children
He is still too young and not old enough to study. In addition to the direct royal family, there are also the eldest sons and grandsons from various palaces outside the palace, as well as the sons of the Mongolian kings in Beijing, Taiji and princesses.
Ji Lan's eldest son Hailiang was naturally among them. She told her sons early in the morning, "Just follow your uncle in the palace." Just like in the past two years when Daoqin was recovering from illness, Su Rige and Hong Han followed her when they entered the palace.
Same.
On this occasion, Kangxi did not pay much attention to his few grandsons. Instead, he called the brothers from the Mongolian prince's family and asked them about it, which fully reflected Bogda Khan's concern for the prairie princes. Nowadays, not only Horqin's Taiji,
The children of Taiji, the princes of the three tribes of Khalkha and Erut, all studied in the palace in Beijing.
This method really captures the essence of "subtle influence". Yinti sighed again and focused on the children ranked according to their age. His family's Hong Han seemed to get along well with his cousin De Shou, and the two of them were next to each other.
He lowered his head and wondered what he was whispering, while Hong Xi behind him also raised his head with curiosity on his face.
The knowledge of Deshou was taught by Yinfeng step by step. Although Honghan was raised as a "free range", when he was a child, Yinti was often sent around by Kangxi, but Daoqin, as the mother-in-law, did not relax his studies. .
Shen Liao, who was later invited to be a master, was also very worried and really taught students according to their aptitude. Objectively speaking, Honghan's qualifications were good, and due to the environment, his aura was not suppressed. Among these princes' children, Honghan will never be the one behind the wheel.
But you can't say that in front of Kangxi. When Yinfeng said in front of him that "Dorai Khan Ama taught the two boys.", Yinti very humbly gave his son a high-level insurance, "Khan Ama knows his son, Hong Han's His mother-in-law has been worried about his studies. He and Mr. Fuli have read some books in the past, so he should be good at it... Anyway, with the teacher assigned by you to teach him, he can't go wrong no matter what he does. If your son is so out of tune, won't he be taken care of by you? It’s been taught.”
"Cultivate yourself and manage your family..." Kangxi looked helpless: "This is the truth. You can't just be busy with official affairs, you must also pay attention to your children's affairs." Then he thought about how much Yinti had been ordered by his old man in the past two years. After everyone was walking around, the emperor said, "That's all. Now that you are studying in the palace, I will naturally watch you."
Okay, Yinti handed over his hand: "Khan Ama said yes." Bo Kangxi smiled appropriately, and the other brothers were all used to it. Their eldest brother has been like this for many years.
When Yinzhi next to him expressed his stance, his attitude was even lower. It seemed that the incident of losing his title had a serious impact on Yinzhi. Sanbeile lowered his head, his face was pale, and he was careful about his words. Kangxi initially looked at him as if he was still confused. He was angry, but in the end his expression remained normal and he did not criticize him harshly.
The children sat in rows, and the masters assigned by Kangxi were all Hanlin bachelors, and the parents who sent their children to school could not resign...The princes also stood in a row outside the classroom, listening to Kangxi's lectures.
The old man seemed to be very happy to see his grandchildren. When he was happy, he couldn't help but send some money. He chose to jump on the podium and lectured to the next generation of the royal family, "The way of university is to show Mingmingde." When he was happy, he even said The prince called over and asked the prince to teach these children a lesson.
"...This has to finish the whole paragraph. Khan Ama is in a good mood today. What's the good news?" Yinqi, who was accompanying his son because he was under age, whispered: "Do we have to stand all the time? With."
Yinzhi moved his mouth, but remained silent in the end. In the past, he would have been the first to answer. Lao Ba, who was standing at the end, whispered: "My brother heard that Qianer of the Ministry of Internal Affairs also accepted Khan Ama's decree and gave it to several sisters. It’s time to prepare your dowry.”
Yinti suddenly thought, isn't it? Girls in their family are difficult to raise. The few aunts who are alive today are several years younger than Yinti. However, although the brothers and sisters are not familiar with each other, they still know their birth dates. Your Majesty He kept his daughters until they were about twenty years old before marrying them off. Considering their age, it was already time for several of them to get married.
"Will Ama Khan be happy about this?" Yinzhen was unhappy. His sister was also in the waiting period for marriage!
The transparent Yinyou looked at his brothers, and finally at Yinti, and whispered: "Brothers, Khan Ama is coming soon."
Kangxi finally let go of the anxious bachelors, but the old man seemed to realize that he had not paid close attention to the homework of these older sons for some years, so everyone from Yinreng to Yinhu was arrested and taken to the Palace of Qianqing. The emperor said that he would investigate Find out what their current knowledge is.
Yinzhi's face shone with light. God had opened his eyes and given him a chance! He had to work hard and make progress! But he just thought about it and immediately thought of the advice his wife had given him early in the morning.
After sending Hongqing into the palace early in the morning, Sanfujin reminded Yinzhi, "Third Master, Khan Ama did not allow you to enter the palace before, but now the ban has been lifted. You must... must think more before you speak."
Thinking of this, the third master gave up at that time. What else could he do to show off? He stayed aside as quietly as a chicken. Maybe Khan Ama could change his view of him because of his sincere repentance. Otherwise, he would be defined as "" for the rest of his life.
"Disregarding ethics", he will lose his chance of success in this life.
Giving lessons to the older princes was naturally not about university education. Kangxi directly took out the memorial and showed it to them!
In an instant, several princes frantically restrained themselves from "peeping" on the crown prince, excluding Yinti. When Prince Zhi was young, he had the opportunity to touch the memorials of local officials and help Kangxi run errands. He was very calm, but
He was also very curious about Yin Reng's expression and what happened to this old man?
In the past, only the crown prince had the honor of reading memorials to the emperor, but today they read memorials to Kangxi one by one, starting from Yinfeng and ending at Yinhu. Unfortunately, the memorial in the hands of the crown prince was written by the governor of Gansu, and the opening chapter is
"Slave, please give me your regards, Your Majesty."
Yinreng was somewhat multitasking, because he received a memorial with almost the same wording in Yuqing Palace, which started with the same sentence: "I would like to send you greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince." Then he wrote the Qianqiu Festival gift he presented to the Crown Prince, because next year he will be
When I returned to Beijing to report on my work, I didn't know if I could still be a high-ranking official, so I gave him the Boxing Gift in advance.
Look, how considerate. Yinreng flicked the letter at that time, thinking that he just wanted to ask him to say a few good words in front of Khan Amma. The distance between the local officials and the emperor was naturally not as close as the distance between the prince and the emperor.
Yin Reng had received dozens of memorials of this kind, those who surrendered, those who hinted at his service, but those who flattered him so much, but this was in front of the emperor, the crown prince couldn't help but think, whether it was a coincidence or intentional.
By chance, he looked up at Kangxi, who was also looking at him. The father and son looked into each other's eyes, but Kangxi did not move. Yinreng, his son, looked away and lowered his head slightly.
Kangxi didn't say much, he just smiled and said: "Yinti, read the memorial in your hand."
The memorials in Yinti's hands were also ordinary greeting memorials. In fact, the memorials in the hands of their brothers were insignificant daily greeting memorials. I don't know if Kangxi was deliberately looking for an opportunity to chat with his sons. It was only after they had read the memorials.
, when he was about to exit, the emperor suddenly said: "I have decided to recruit Dun Dobu Dorji as my consort and marry Liu Gege to him. The King of Khalkha County will come to Beijing today..."
Except for the prince, all the princes looked at Kangxi. The eyes of the youngest Yinzhi were particularly shining. Kangxi looked at them again, and finally the wooden advertisement fell on Yinzhi: "Yinsi, I'll leave it to you."
Take responsibility."
Ba Beile controlled himself not to appear too excited, and said: "Hey! I obey the order."
