272 Chapter 272: A Thousand Shots (2)
Everything that happened in the capital, Kangxi and the others who were on the southern tour were not clear at the moment.
Kangxi had a special plan to clean up Suo Etu this time, but he didn't expect that Suo Etu and the others would have such a rebellious mind.
Prince Yinren, that is Kangxi grew up with a handful of snot and urine with his own hands, the prince when he was a child, Kangxi handed over to anyone who was worried that the harem people would not take good care of him.
The prince grew up in the Qianqing Palace since he was a child, so Kangxi would not believe that the prince would oppose him anyway.
This is also the reason why Kangxi walked so cleanly with a group of people this time.
Soon, Kangxi met with a group of officials who reported on affairs, and then reassigned and promoted the Governor of Liangjiang, as well as Ma Qi and other officials, and then announced that he would continue to go south the next day.
However, this time I went south, according to the original plan, and was divided into two routes to the south.
Due to Kangxi's infection with wind and cold and some physical discomfort, Kangxi inspected the river transportation this time as previously arranged.
instructed the fourth master to go south with the eighth elder brother of Lianjun and the two of them, and continue to go south with Kangxi;
The queen mother, the queen mother, and the ladies of the harem, followed the original route along the way and took a boat to Qingkou, where Huangyun intersected.
At this point, it will meet with Kangxi's imperial boat, continue to go south, and go to Suzhou and Hangzhou, which is a place that Kangxi must pass through for six southern tours.
This is within the jurisdiction of Liangjiang, Jiangning weaving Cao Yin, Suzhou weaving Li Xu, speaking of which, these two people, in all Qing court dramas and original works, are Kangxi's companions when he was young.
The mothers of the two were both Kangxi's nurses, according to the words of the banner people, the three of them are milk brothers, and this relationship is well known in the officialdom.
Therefore, in the Liangjiang area, although the quality of these two weavers is not high, many official grades are larger than the two, and they still have to let the two of them have to be the same.
Especially now when Kangxi is deeply trusted, the two of them are simply a force in the sky.
What's more, in the current palace, from the moment he entered the palace, he won the favor of Kangxi by virtue of his Han identity, and gave birth to fifteen princes, seventeen princes, and eighteen princes.
But with this Suzhou weaving Li Xu, the relationship is not ordinary, it is said to be the relationship between cousins and sisters, it can be said that the two are complementary to each other, a typical case of win-win cooperation.
Every time Kangxi went to the south of the Yangtze River, he wanted to go to the two rivers to see, one was that Jiangning and Suzhou were rich in the jurisdiction of the two rivers.
Another reason is not because of Kangxi's two nurses and milk brothers Cao Yin and Li Xu.
This time, since the beginning of Kangxi's southern tour, he ordered not to disturb the people, that is, all the food and drink were in the capital, and he had already instructed the Internal Affairs Office to prepare them.
But within the jurisdiction of Liangjiang, Cao Yin of Jiangning Weaving and Li Xu of Suzhou Weaving had already begun to prepare for the driving within two months in advance.
And Kangxi, the queen mother and other people, going south to go to the place where they are stationed, is the mansion of the two.
On the second day, after Kangxi announced that he was going south, everyone began to set off in two ways.
After going south this time, everyone rarely delayed on the way, Kangxi took several princes, and passed through Yucheng Liji and Qihe Qiujia'an in turn.
On the 12th, he went to Jinan, watched the Pearl Spring and Baotu Spring, and ordered the governor of Shandong to hang the "Three Crossing of the Qi River Instant Poem" written by Xuan Ye himself at the door of the governor's office to show the local people. Then stationed in Changqing Huangshan store.
On the second day, when passing through Tai'an, he climbed Mount Tai and ordered that all the southern patrol stations and the taxes owed to the counties along the way be exempted.
On the 15th, through Xintai Fuqiu, Yishui Duozhuang Station, Yizhou Lijiazhuang out of Shandong.
Kangxi first took a light boat to inspect Gaojiayan and Guiren Dike on the shore of Hongze Lake, and then returned to Qinghe County to receive the Empress Dowager to cross the Yellow River.
On 16 April, he crossed the Yellow River in Suqian and inspected the river work.
On the 18th, the flotilla arrived at Huai'an. From then on, the waterway was changed to the south, and then prepared to Yangzhou, Suzhou, and Hangzhou.
Because of the complete convergence of the two teams, it was reported in the palace that the prince was seriously ill when he arrived in Texas on the way to the south.
After Kangxi received the news on the surface, he temporarily ordered the prince to recuperate in Texas, and Xuansuo went to Texas to serve his illness.
Kangxi was ready to speed up the river patrol, and then inspect the river work, so he prepared to go north along the canal until Tongzhou and return to Beijing in advance.
Of course, this is something that is on everyone's desk on the surface, but in fact, Kangxi secretly ordered to clean up Suo Etu this time, how could he not know such a big movement in Beijing?
It's just that Kangxi, like Yongzheng, is a person who is kind and forbearing, and in the past few days, he has been conscientiously inspecting the river workers, as if all the movements in Beijing have nothing to do with the two.
This time, when they went south to inspect the river affairs, although the fourth and eighth masters went south in the same boat as Kangxi, after arriving at Gaojiayan, the two of them completely fell into patrolling the river every day.
Even if they went to pick up the Queen Mother, the two of them did not participate, so since the last time the fourth master and Yilu separated, they have not seen each other for nearly ten days.
Here, the fourth master and Yinxi have been patrolling the embankment for several days.
At the beginning, after the eighth elder brother Yinzheng was reborn in this life, he has been pretending to be the route of Yongzheng in his previous life, and he is conscientious in doing any errand.
Therefore, in the past few days of patrolling the river, the eighth master was in high spirits from the beginning, and when he met the officials who were ordered to repair the embankment, he had to greet and comfort them with a spring breeze on their faces.
After walking along the river embankment, one foot high and one foot low, five or six miles, the eighth master's smile was a little bitter.
waited until he returned to Huaiyin Mansion, and the eighth master felt that his legs and feet were stiff like wood, and his feet were sore all night.
On the second day, I didn't think that Prince Yong, who was diligent and selfless in his previous life, would come to invite him again, and the eighth master was bitter in his heart.
I can't wait to open my head to see this unenlightened Emperor Yongzheng.
He really doesn't understand, now the two of them are a prince, a prince and a prince of the county, and they don't want to be a good prince and brother.
But he wants to depreciate his identity, as the emperor's elder brother, he has a horse and does not ride, but he wants to learn from those small people who follow the rules and generally only walk on their feet.
It's okay now, the eighth master snatched the throne for this previous life in his heart, and also banned him from his post, and even changed his name indiscriminately, Emperor Yongzheng, and made a deep record.
In the end, he was stunned for a while, and the eighth master who refused to admit defeat finally responded to the fourth master, but the eighth master in this life didn't want to lose everything.
This country can't be saved, the woman you love can't be saved, if you can't win at this point, the eighth master estimates in his heart that the fourth master will completely become his shadow.
However, after abandoning the horse to the embankment this time, the eighth master no longer had much energy, and only fell behind the fourth master step by step, and when he met people again, he would lose that smile.
After the two of them finished inspecting the river affairs along the way, in the early morning of the second day, the fourth and eighth masters took the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang and the fourteenth elder brother Yinzhen who chased over, and set off for Suzhou in advance.
When he arrived in Suzhou, Zhang, the governor of Liangjiang, Song, the governor of Jiangsu, Li Xu, the weaver of Suzhou, and the prefect of Suzhou all came to greet him.
After the governor of Liangjiang led the officials to greet him, he came forward to greet him:
"Lord, the Holy Driver and the Queen Mother Luan are expected to arrive in Suzhou tomorrow, and the lower officials and others have prepared to welcome the driver, and how many princes and elder brothers want to inspect?"
Yongzheng said: "The emperor's southern tour this time, the first thing is the river worker, and he has told the local officials many times that they should not be extravagant and not harass the people."
You and Li Xu are both ministers of the emperor, and this matter must be of particular concern. ”
The Governor of Liangjiang and Li Xu said again and again: "The prince reminds me that the emperor has strictly reprimanded us for not being able to govern the river, and the lower officials, Song Ju and other Liangjiang officials are very ashamed of the emperor.
The lower officials and others have strictly ordered their subordinates to carefully inspect the Yellow River embankment again, so as not to let the 'Yellow River burst' and other such things happen in the 37th year. ”
Yongzheng listened, but was not in a hurry to answer. In order to welcome Kangxi's royal drive, even if the place is no longer wasteful.
It is also necessary to use hundreds of thousands of silver to repair the loess royal road, the palace, and prepare the daily supplies for Kangxi and the thousands of people accompanying him.
No matter how big the Jiangsu Domain Treasury is, at the same time to deal with the river repair, relief, and successive Emperor Aman Tours that have begun since the 38th year, the three things are together, and no matter how large the domain treasury is, it will be overstretched.
It can be said that the treasury deficit in the late period of Huang Ama was not due to the fact that many officials borrowed money and did not exchange it, and corrupt officials became corrupt and corrupt officials.
The first of these is the 'six southern tours', and it is conceivable that there must be a lot of waste in them.
It's just that Huang Ama is also an emperor who says nothing, especially in his old age, he pays more attention to pleasure and face.
He is a courtier, so he can't interfere too much, so he can only try his best to remedy it.
Soon Yongzheng's contemplation was interrupted by Yinxiang's voice, Yinxiang is more realistic, and the young and frivolous Yinxiang has a lot of enthusiasm and ambition.
At this time, seeing that many of the people along the way were living unclothed, and they were still stepping up repairing the river embankment every day, he felt uneasy.
Therefore, while asking, he unconsciously carried some blame, and the silver of the weaving house was not in place.
But soon he was taken by Yongzheng and ran away from the topic, although Yinxiang has enthusiasm, but now it is really not appropriate for them to ask too much.
This is mainly because there is a special person here, Li Xu, this person, even if they are princes now, they are not afraid of him.
But this person, for the prince, can neither be too enthusiastic, nor too contemptuous.
Who is this who is not only the son of the emperor's nurse, but also a favored Han lady in the palace.
And what I am most afraid of is that this Li Xu, according to Huang Ama's trust so much, I am afraid that it may be the eyes and ears of his Emperor Ama in Jiangnan.
Therefore, everyone was not stupid, and after saying hello to each other quickly, they changed the topic, first chatting about the customs of Jiangnan.
Then after arranging for a few princes to have dinner, they each went back to the room prepared for them in the Weaving Mansion, and waited together to prepare for the next day's royal car.
On the second day, before the end of the day, Yongzheng took the eighth master of Lianjun, the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother, and the governor of Liangjiang, the governor of Jiangsu, the weaving Li Xu of Suzhou, and the prefect of Suzhou.
Seventy or eighty officials, big and small, and local gentry waited at the wharf, and it was already a quarter of the afternoon when Kangxi was ushered in.
In the end, because they had been waiting for most of the day, and the sun was still very strong in early summer, the older officials were already exhausted, and after Kangxi called out, several people almost fell to the ground when they got up.
Kangxi saw it and couldn't bear it, so he said that he was following the edict of the queen mother, thinking of everyone's hard work, so that everyone dispersed, leaving only a few princes and Li Xu to accompany him and go to Suzhou Weaving Mansion to stay.
It's just that the army of princes headed by Kangxi and the harem ladies led by the queen mother have just settled down, and soon there will be an urgent report from the capital.
is still an urgent report from several lines, this urgent report is not only received by Kangxi here, but Yongzheng and Baye, who have special channels.
This time it is rare, because of the fatigue of the boat, Concubine Liang has gone through the boat all the way, and now her body is not as good as in previous years, but she is a little tired.
However, because the concubine who has been reborn in this life has always been good at maintenance, she looks like a beauty in her early 30s at this time. Therefore, even though Concubine Liang is not young now, she has always been favored by Kangxi.
And that night, Kangxi didn't come to Concubine Liang's room because he was in a hurry.
After the eighth master received the news, he dressed in plain clothes and came to the courtyard prepared for the concubine in the weaving mansion in the name of asking for peace.
After accompanying Concubine Liang to finish eating, he kept grinding and didn't leave, and finally after thinking about it for a long time, the eighth master still wanted to hear the opinion of the completely different concubine in this world.
"What do you say? Prince ......"
Concubine Liang just sat down and took a sip of the hot milk brought in by the palace people just now.
Then hearing the news that her son was so exciting, she raised her eyebrows at this moment and asked in some surprise.
In fact, her identity in her previous life was not obvious, and after giving birth to Yinxi in the harem, she was completely beaten into the cold palace by Kangxi.
She knew that in the past few years, the previous dynasty had been unstable, and soon the prince's party would fall, and then her son would be inexplicably implicated.
However, in the end, the good concubine in this world has completely abandoned the cowardice and inaction of the previous life, and has already had the style of a favorite concubine.
Therefore, at this time, she suddenly heard that the party was rebelling, and after she was surprised, she quickly stopped the surprise in her heart.
Then beckoned his son to sit down, and continued to ask: "Do you know the detailed plan, then this time your emperor Ama ......"
Concubine Liang compared her neck, of course, referring to whether the prince would send someone to assassinate Kangxi.
"Huh...... Just by virtue of the prince of this world? He also dares? If it was Suo Etu's old horseman, then it would still be possible to ......"
The eighth master was very unimpressed, took a sip of tribute tea, and then said with a disdainful face.
He always felt that his emperor Ama was too cruel, and he had never seen through the reason in his previous life, but he couldn't get enough of Yilu in this life, and he saw a lot of things clearly.
And the first thing is that he finally sorted out a few of their princes who were in the storm, but they were played with by the loyal and calm Emperor Ama who was in the storm.
The eighth master was still thinking about this life and what happened next, and then with a "boom", the eighth master's thoughts were interrupted.
When she turned around, she found that the hot milk in her mother's hand fell directly to the floor, and she was looking at him with tears streaming down her face.
The eighth master hurriedly put the tea on the table, and then took two steps to help Concubine Liang sit on the other side, and then asked, "Mother, what's wrong with you?" ”
"Son......" Concubine Liang couldn't cry at this time, hugged the eighth master tightly, her arms tightened more and more, and then shook her head, and only stroked Yinxi's handsome face with her own hands.
Then he clenched his hands and asked fiercely, "Son, do you want the throne in this life?" ”
"What...... Mother, you ......" As soon as Concubine Liang's words fell, the shocked eighth master stood up suddenly.
The eighth master here just wanted to ask if his mother concubine in this life was also reborn, but he hadn't asked yet.
Soon the palace people guarding outside the door reported that someone in front of Banzai came to report, "Long live the illness, see you at the king of Xuanlian County!" ”
