Kangxi was about to call Xiong Cixu to discuss Guan Yu's number, when he suddenly heard the sound of the flute on the stage. The first play of "Peach Blossom Fan" "Listening to the Barnyard opened", Hou Fangyu's square scarf soap boots came out with water sleeves, and Kangxi was attracted as soon as he opened his mouth:

Next to Sun Chulou, on Mochou Lake, a few more weeping poplars were added. It is a beautiful place in the rivers and mountains, and the wine sells the sun, seduces tourists to get drunk and appreciate, and learns the appearance of the Southern Dynasty with gold powder. Dark thoughts, those warblers are crazy......

Kangxi looked at the stage quietly, and suddenly remembered Wu Ciyou, who was the tall foot of Hou Chaozong, who sent Sulun to Wutai Mountain last time, and replied that he had gone to make an order, where is he now? His heart couldn't help but feel desolate. Because he thought that he was old and stood up, the war in Taiwan was unpredictable, and the rebellion in the west had no time to take care of, and there was no unscrupulous general who could take on a huge responsibility, and there was no guide to accompany the counselor, he couldn't help but sigh. After looking at it for a while, and seeing that it was getting close, he got up and went into the hall. A large group of concubines and concubines were standing in front of the Empress Dowager to have fun, and when they saw Kangxi coming in, they all knelt down with a "hmm".

The Empress Dowager was pulling Fang Lan's hand and talking about homely things, when she saw Kangxi coming in, she smiled and said, "There are so many ministers outside, what is the emperor doing when he comes in?" I'm all the rage, I can't understand these dramas, I just have them to laugh and relieve my boredom, I don't want you to make rules. Kangxi smiled and said: "I want to move around after sitting for a long time, it's early and late, and I'm afraid that Lafayette will be hungry." Come in and take a look, do you want to pass the meal? The Empress Dowager said: "Look at this table of dirt things, are you still hungry for my wife?" Only Fang Lan is pitiful: a new daughter-in-law, stepping into the door to deal with such a big scene, it's really difficult for her. ”

Fang Lan heard the Empress Dowager mention herself, and hurriedly flashed out and kowtowed to Kangxi. Kangxi saw that she was still wearing a red wedding dress, her face was as white as the moon, her face was as shy as the moon, and she was shrewd in her beauty, so she smiled and said: "Okay!" Get up. I said that I was going to marry Gao Shiqi, and I finally didn't eat the preface. There's nothing to reward you at this time, so go back and let the Ministry of Rites give you an order earlier! The Empress Dowager smiled and said, "You have nothing to do, go back!" No, here, they don't even dare to say a joke, you can just pass the meal when you're hungry, I don't need it. ”

Kangxi came out, the play had been performed in the middle, and Emperor Hongguang was in a corner of peace after his defeat, and he didn't want to cheer up, but he was bent on searching for beauty, and he refused to say it directly, so he asked Ma Shicheng to "guess" his thoughts. The treacherous and cunning Ma Shicheng deliberately failed to guess repeatedly. Kangxi couldn't help frowning, and said loudly: "Hypocrite! ”

Mingzhu is pregnant with a ghost fetus, where does she have the heart to watch the play? looked at Gao Shiqi for a while, peeked at Kangxi's expression for a while, and listened to Kangxi's voice fiercely, and his body shook in fright, and it took a while to remember that Kangxi was talking about Ma Shicheng.

As for the "Selection", Hongguang and the singers played ten times for fun. Emperor Hongguang held a flat drum with one hand, hit the lotus with the other hand, and the butterfly wore flowers like a dozen kabukis.

The old Wu Palace reopened the museum, and the new Yangzhou first taught thin horses. Huaiyang drum Kunshan strings, Wuxi Gusu Jiaowa. One by one, the spring breeze blows, the warm sound, the smoke is clear, the cold sleeves are floating, and the palace maids are like hemp. The red mansion and the green hall, the scenery is beautiful. I have no worries about the Son of Heaven, and I laugh and laugh loudly.

Kangxi saw it, couldn't help laughing, turned around and said to Xiong Ci: "A person like this who has no heart at all has actually become a son of heaven!" Hongguang Hongguang, although he wants to die, can he get it? ”

"Hooray!" Xiong Cixu, who never watched a play, also fell into a god, and when he saw Kangxi talking to himself, he hurriedly smiled and said, "Heaven has taken its soul, and I will be given the Qing Dynasty with an artifact!" Although this drama is a barnyard history, it is also of great benefit to the hearts of the people of the world! ”

Behind the curtain of the veil, Su Malagu, who accompanied the Empress Dowager, was a sigh of emotion. Hou Gongzi and Li Xiangjun became monks one after another after the death of the Ming Dynasty, and after decades of flicking their fingers, his students ended exactly the same as him. Although the situation is different, the mood is the same, and a sour heat in my heart almost fell into tears. Seeing her pale, the Empress Dowager knew that the drama had aroused her thoughts, and said with a smile: "Although the drama is good, it's just too literary, and I can't sit still." The sky is getting dark, while they are holding the lamp, we might as well go back to the palace. You don't have to go back to Changchun Garden, stay with me for a night......" He got up and instructed Zhang Wanqiang, "You accompany the emperor to watch the play, let him rest for a day, don't say that I went, and swept the emperor's interest." He took Fang Lan's hand again and said, "It's okay to go into the palace and talk to me about Gu Ji'er to relieve boredom." After saying that, he drove back to the palace through the back door.

The play was not finished until the beginning of the child, Kangxi watched it happily, appreciated the plays, and ordered everyone to disperse, asking for tea with great interest, and said to Gao Shiqi with a smile: "It's really a genius's handwriting, such a good play, why don't you play it early?" Gao Shiqi said with a smile: "Kong Shangren is a well-known bold talent, Huchen is afraid that there will be any obstacles in it, so he first came in after performing in Nanjing, and the slave originally wanted to watch it first and then ask the master to watch it." Later, I thought that Huchen was such a fine person, how could he be wrong? and they were daring. Kangxi said with a smile: "Kong Shangren is a person recommended by Mr. Wu, that is, he has a small fault, what does it have to do with you, you need to go around in such a big circle?" I just don't know if the Northern Expedition Kong has come, don't fall like the Southern Expedition, right? ”

Gao Shiqi consumed his spirit, for the matter of the South Pavilion, and finally got to the topic, and said busily: "When the master talks about this, the slave has to give a advice, long live the anger of the previous child, the power of the sky is unpredictable, the slave is scared away from the true soul, and if there is something to say, I have to wait for the master to stop and stop talking - if you talk about the matter of Nanfu, it can only be said that the ministers are not loyal to the work." If you turn it over and look at it, it is still a happy event, it is worth long live the anger of the dragon's heart and move so much liver fire? ”

"What did you say?" Kangxi asked, "What is the gratification of fraud in the science field?" ”

"Hooray, everything has to be seen in reverse, and then you can see it all! In the view of the slaves, this is the turning point of the hearts of the people in the world to the Qing Dynasty and the prosperous era! ”

"Huh?"

"I have been in Dingding for 40 years, and there are many reasons why people's hearts fluctuate." Gao Shiqi said, "The biggest thing is that the literati are stubborn, misinterpret the scriptures and righteousness of the sages, and hold Huayi's views." Therefore, all previous scientific examinations are insufficient. ”

"Hmmm......"

"Nowadays, people do not hesitate to spend a lot of money to enter the camp, which is a sign of political stability and prosperity." Gao Shiqi took the pot and added water to Kangxi, and continued: "The slave is not obedient, and at the beginning of the founding of the country, even a poem like Mingzhu was a fellow jinshi!" When the 'Three Feudatories' was in turmoil, less than one-fifth of the applicants for the exam in Nanfu did not dare to stop taking the exam, so why did no one spend money on joints at that time? Current events are different, and the general trend has changed! Of course, there must be a matter of condescension if there is fraud, after all, there are still a minority. The minions looked at the list of winners, and there were many Jiangnan celebrities in the south, and it seemed that they could not be erased......"

Kangxi stood up, paced back and forth with the cup, saw Gao Shiqi muttering and stopped, and smiled: "If you go on, don't be afraid." ”

"Long live if you want to do it seriously, you have to build a big prison." Gao Shiqi's eyebrows provoked Lao Gao, and said worriedly: "It's really like Xiong Dongyuan said, the main examiner, the deputy examiner, the examiner of the eighteenth room kills, chops and chops, who is not afraid of the scribe who wins this?" If it is done so strictly, the examiners in the future will be daunted! How many years has it taken to nurture this trend of literati returning to their hearts, and hasn't it been extinguished again? And Wu Sidao, the main culprit of the Nanfu trouble, didn't hold it, and it is not clear what article is behind it, and the severe punishment of the examiner will indulge these people, and he will pick up the God of Wealth and enter the Tribute Institute at every turn in the future, long live it or not? How difficult it is to deal with the aftermath! ”

Kangxi thought about it, threw the teacup on the table, and said with a smile: "Who have you been entrusted by someone, taking advantage of your happiness to settle the No. 1 lawsuit of Tianzi, right?" According to what you said, corruption and bad law, favoritism and fraud, can you not do it? ”

Gao Shiqi was taken aback, knelt down on his knees with a "plop", and said, "How dare the minion!" The slave was originally a scholar, followed the master, did not overmove, and was already in the cardinal, how dare he defy the law? The slave said, of course, fraud is not good, but the master is in control, and this problem is easy to correct; It is not easy to recover if it touches people's hearts. The Lord is wise and wise, with the wisdom of the sun and the moon, and he can discern the painstaking efforts of his slaves! ”

Kangxi, who was originally determined to kill, was deeply moved by Gao Shiqi's spring-like tongue. When I think about it, I feel that he has a point. But he was untreated, and he was unwilling, and he conspired for a long time, Kangxi Fang muttered: "Don't do it?" ”

"It still has to be done, and you can't make too much noise on the bright side and alarm the court!" Gao Shiqi was sure that Kangxi was anxious to use troops and did not want the situation to be shaken, and said categorically, "Transfer Zuo and Zhao back to Beijing, strictly reprimand, and seize the official and return the stolen goods!" The troublemakers issued a secret order to investigate. When the matter of Taiwan is over, the Lord goes on a southern tour, and the talented Jane who is indeed in the scroll comes up. In this way, the selected tributes will not be burned, and the fallen talents will receive the grace of special simplicity. Wouldn't it be better to see their rulers, to promote their loyalty and integrity, and to punish those who are greedy and lawless? ”

When Kangxi heard this, he couldn't help but close his palms, and was about to say "It's up to you", but the words became on his lips: "I'm tired today, let's summon the study tomorrow and discuss it with the officials of the Ministry of Rites!" ”

When he returned to Da Nei, it was already the end of the child, and Kangxi didn't turn over the cards again, and went to the Heart Cultivation Palace. The night's drama made him think so much that he couldn't sleep, so he simply put on his clothes. For the past three years, Kangxi has personally watched the stars every half month, never stopping. Although it is not a day today, since you can't sleep, why not stargaze? The eunuch Li Dequan was still boiling eagles under the corridor, and when he saw Kangxi coming out, he hurriedly came over to ask for peace, and asked the eunuch on duty to come and wait. Kangxi waved his hand and said: "Lenovo is quiet alone, and a large group of people around it is annoying-Hai Dongqing has eaten well these days?" ”

"Wow!" Li Dequan got up and replied: "-Haidong is young and strong!" It's good to eat, but it also has to be released, it is in a hurry, and it bites and screams when it sees people. There are no minions in front of them, and they won't eat a bite......"

Kangxi didn't pay any attention to it, got off the danqi, and took a walk in the silent patio. The cold waning moon in the middle of the sky is just like a jade hook, if it is bright and dark, the top of the palace wall, the corner of the palace, the futong, and the copper horse are plated with a layer of silver light, and everything is shrouded in shadows, trance, true and false, and there seems to be nothing:
