135 Shipwreck
In June of the sixth year of Kangxi, the emperor suddenly issued an order, severely reprimanding the local governors for "corruption and harm to the people", and demanded that all corrupt officials such as the governor and the town of the governor be arrested, and the spearhead was directed at the governors who opposed the emperor's pro-government, and after the arrest of three governors in succession, the Aobai forces were completely stunned, they thought about it again and again, decided to give in, and agreed to the emperor's pro-government, and at the same time hinted to Sony, the emperor should also stop acting, and can no longer continue to clean up Aobai's cronies.
In July, Kangxi officially pro-government in the congratulatory voice of the ministers, at the beginning of the pro-government, he carried out drastic reforms, because he knew very well that there was not much time left for him, and now the court is stable, mainly because of the presence of Sony, but Sony's body is simply precarious. He must consolidate his imperial power before Sonny returns to heaven.
But Sony didn't survive this July in the end,
Before dying, Sonny took Kangxi's hand and explained: "Your Majesty, the minister is going, the most worrying thing for me is you, you are arrogant, and you will never tolerate Aobai for a long time, but your current power is not enough to compete with Aobai, so if you want to take him down, you must take him by surprise." I know you've formed your own guard, but that bit of strength, let alone dealing with Aobai's gang, you can't even take him alone, don't forget, he's the number one warrior in the Qing Dynasty."
After speaking, he beckoned his son Suo Etu to come over, held his hand and said to Kangxi: "This is the third child in my family, named Suo Etu, although his official position is not high, but his emotional intelligence is extremely high, he relies on my power and influence to cling everywhere." Quietly, from the ministers of the court, down to the ruffians, to the palace eunuchs, to the generals who led the troops, they made some friends. It can be said that there are people everywhere and everywhere who give him face. At the beginning, I reprimanded him harshly, saying that he was not doing his job. Nowadays, it seems that this is also a bit of a plus. Now I will give it to the emperor to use as your confidant. Without him, you can't move some of the armies in crisis."
Kangxi burst into tears, choked up and couldn't make a sound.
Sonny patted Suo Etu on the back and instructed, "Son." The emperor is not only our master, but your niece is also the queen, and now our two families are real relatives. You swear, swear in front of me, you will swear to protect the emperor to the death, if you have two hearts, you will starve to death a wicked obstacle."
Suo Etu looked at his father, who was a little confused and angry, and quickly swore and cried.
At this point, Sony slowly closed his eyes.
When the news of Sony's death came, Ao Bai was very excited.
Immediately he gathered his henchmen together to take counsel.
Bamburshan couldn't close his mouth happily, he shook the paper fan and said excitedly: "Great, great, God help me." Alas, if this old miscellaneous hair can die two months early, Xuan Ye's kid will not be able to kiss politics.
Ao Bai stared at the big eyes and shouted: "What can the emperor do, if he can't move the army, he is a toothless tiger, Sonny is dead, and the next step is to eradicate the stumbling block of Sukh Saha."
Bambul smiled evilly: "Ao Gong, Sukh Saha is your son and daughter's family, you can really do it"?
Ao Bai sneered: "Those who follow me prosper, and those who oppose me die, not to mention my relatives, even those who are close to my relatives, dare to stop my plan, and I am not merciless."
Sonny returned to heaven, Sukh Saha was terrified, he knew very well that Ao Bai should attack him immediately, and the only way to do this was to resign himself. Give all the power to the emperor, and come to the army to save his life. His wishful thinking is that the emperor has already been in charge of the government, and the four auxiliary governments must be handed over to power, and now that Sony is dead, he is the first to resign and hand over power, what reason do you have for Ao Bai to control the court? Once Ao Bai also hands over power, the imperial power will be controlled by Kangxi alone, and he will not only be safe from now on, but will even be reused in the future.
After Sony's funeral, Kangxi was full of sadness, he just wanted to adjust the position of the courtiers, but Suke Saha suddenly proposed that the emperor was already in power, and the auxiliary ministers must be dissolved, otherwise they would be arbitrary. He himself set an example first, and was willing to resign from all positions and beg to be stationed in the filial piety tomb of the first emperor Fulin. Guarding the tomb of the former emperor.
Kangxi understood what Sukh Saha meant, and just wanted to push the boat down the river.
Ao Bai raised his arms and shouted: "The old minister has just passed away, the court situation is in turmoil, and this is the time for the auxiliary ministers to stabilize the court situation, but Suke Saha took the opportunity to threaten the court with his resignation.
Then he took out the twenty-four sins of Sukh Saha that had been woven from his bosom and read it.
After reading it, he announced in public: "Sukh Saha is deliberately trying to endanger the imperial court, his heart can be killed, and his crime should be punished." Today, by the emperor's order, Sukh Saha and his eldest son Chakdan were escorted to the entrance of the vegetable market to be cut with a thousand knives to set an example. The rest of the descendants were all beheaded, and their families were exterminated.
Kangxi was furious and asked Aobai: "When did I make such a ridiculous will? No playing.
Ao Bai stepped forward with his arms folded and loudly threatened Kangxi: "Although the emperor is pro-government, but during the internship, the major affairs of the court are still in charge of the four auxiliary politics, and now that the old minister has unfortunately passed away, only I am left who can decide, and Su Ke Saha, the three auxiliary ministers of Su Ke Saha, and Su Ke Saha's opinion is the same as mine, that is, to kill Su Ke Saha, who is clever and deceitful, lies and messes with the government, we are two to one, and it has been passed." Why did the emperor stop it unreasonably"?
Kangxi was taken aback by the might of Aobai, he shuddered for a moment, looked at Ji Bilong with expectant eyes and asked, "Lord Ji, you are also an auxiliary minister, why don't you say a word?"
Ji Bilong didn't dare to look at Kangxi's eyes, he turned his back and whispered: "Emperor Rong Bing, what Lord Ao means is what I mean." There is no change in this matter".
Kangxi looked at Ji Bilong angrily, and didn't know what to do for a while.
Ao Bai stepped forward, grabbed the imperial pen on the case, stuffed it into Kangxi's hand, and scolded loudly: "The emperor doesn't need to rap, quickly issue an order to chop Suke Saha, otherwise, hum ---."
Kangxi mourned with tears in his eyes: "Lord Ao, you and Suke Saha are ministers in the same hall, can you open the net and let him live"?
Ao Bai said angrily: "No"
After thinking about it, he said again: "Since the emperor has spoken, I can't be too stubborn, so let's change a thousand cuts to hanging, this is my last concession, the emperor should quickly issue an order to execute."
With tears in his eyes, Kangxi drew a hook on the execution intention with his imperial pen. A bit of blood red slowly spread on the paper, stinging everyone's eyes.
Back in the harem, Kangxi stood with his hands behind his back and was silent.
Xiaozhuang sighed: "Your Majesty, I know everything that happened in the court, as soon as Sonny died, Ao Bai was revealed, and he killed Suke Saha today." The first is to eradicate dissidents, the second is to make an example of a hundred and make the ministers submit to him, and the third is to make a rehearsal for the palace coup d'état in the future. Now all three goals have been achieved. The forced palace has officially begun".
Kangxi was shocked, then gritted his teeth and said, "Grandmother." Xuan Ye is not Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty, and he does not want to be a dou. Today, the court has tried to see the dagger, and I have decided to take down the worship and restore the imperial power.
Xiaozhuang said: "Since the emperor has decided, we must do it boldly, we must not be afraid, and we must not give up halfway." It's just that you should make some arrangements beforehand."
Kangxi said: "Relying on friendship and relationships, Suo Etu has quietly replaced all the power of Ouchi with our own people. The Buku boy I trained was also ambushed, and I just had to find an excuse to trick Ao Bai into the harem, and then I could take him down."
Xiaozhuang sneered: "It is indeed a good strategy to capture the thief and capture the king, but Aobai controls the military power in the world, especially near the Beijing Division, the good capture camp, the commander of Jiumen, the camp of Xishan, the sharp key camp, and the governor of Zhili, all of them are his henchmen, you catch Aobai here, and his army will dare to attack the palace over there, and then take advantage of the situation to get rid of you and me, and support Aobai as the king, at that time, how can the emperor deal with it"?
Kangxi pondered: "That's why I came to find my grandmother, I want you to come to Fengtian in the name of worshipping your ancestors in the next few days." If my side wins, I'll send someone to pick up my grandmother. If I fail, my grandmother will pretend not to know the inside story and put all the blame on me."
Xiaozhuang said with tears: "I am old, and I have long put life and death aside. What the emperor wants to protect is the country of Aixinjue Luo, I want to protect my little grandson, the emperor, I won't go there, just here to guard you. In fact, I had expected that there would be today, so I had already sent my henchmen to the Horqin steppe to contact my mother's soldiers and horses, the Mongolian iron horseman Gordadan. Just wait for an order to send troops to Beijing. Suo Etu, Cao Yin, Mingzhu and other henchmen also went to gather the camp controlled by Sony in the past. Yesterday I came back to my life, and all the big battalions had quietly moved to the Beijing Division. Although these soldiers and horses were not as strong as Aobai's troops, they were enough to pose a psychological threat to him. so that he did not dare to rashly attack the emperor."
Kangxi held Xiaozhuang's hand and cried: "Grandmother has good intentions, and grandchildren remember it, but it is not advisable to have a war within the Qing Dynasty. The three feudatories were restless, but they didn't dare to act rashly for the time being, and once we had civil strife, they would take advantage of the situation and drive us out of the country. In order to restore the Han family, at this time, we can't be sinners of the Qing Dynasty."
Xiaozhuang also sobbed: "What can I do then?
Kangxi shook his head and said: "When Yuanrong left Beijing, he told me that some tribulations are destined, and you must rely on your own ability, perseverance and mental strength to break through, if you work hard, there are still obstacles that cannot be overcome, go to the temple to find him." Now that all my strength has been exhausted, I still have no choice but to leave tonight and go to the temple to find harmony. ”
Xiaozhuang was startled, he hugged Kangxi tightly and trembled and said, "No, I won't let you go, it's not been a day and a half since Ao Bai wanted to harm you." It's better to have someone to protect you in the palace. Once out of the palace, meet the people and horses of Aobai. But how can it be good"?
Kangxi said with a smile: "Grandmother is too worried, Yuanrong dares me to go to him in the midst of danger, I must have made arrangements a long time ago, although the queen mother can rest assured, the true son of heaven has a hundred gods to take care of." What can the young people do to me"?
