Early the next morning, the eighth elder brother Yinyu, the ninth elder brother Yinyu, the tenth elder brother Yinyu, and the Han Shangshu Chen Yuanlong of the Ministry of Rites, the four of them rushed to the palace of Prince Sui to visit.

It's rare to have a holiday, Yinzhen naturally won't get up early, when Bao Fuquan reported outside the door, he was sleeping well, and Chen Yuanlong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, also came, so he naturally understood what it was for, and immediately ordered: "Take them to Yin'an Hall to serve tea, and I will come immediately." ”

As soon as he heard this, Wan Yan Hairuo immediately brought the autumn equinox and Xiangqiao, two personal maids, to serve Yinzhen to get up, and Yinzhen complained while being at the mercy of the two maids: "I am used to being used to your waiters, and I am not used to going out of Beijing." ”

"Does the prince want to take these two maids out of Beijing?" Wan Yan Hairuo pursed his lips and quipped.

The autumn equinox and Xiangqiao listened to the two maids' faces flushed, and their hands and feet suddenly slowed down, both of them were between seventeen and eighteen years old, and they had already reached the age of marriage, but Hairuo never mentioned the words of marriage to the two, and she also knew the idea of Chang Fujin, the prince had been promoted from Beizi all the way to the prince in the past few years, and now he is a real and unknown prince.

Although the people in the Hefu didn't dare to say it clearly, who didn't count it in their hearts? Up and down in this mansion, inside and outside, which one is not secretly competing, just to be appreciated by the prince, once the prince ascends the throne, they are all old people of the domain, and the future is limitless.

There are a lot of maids in the house, but if there is a bit of beauty, which one doesn't think that he can comb his hair and open his face to be a maid in the room? The personal maid around Fujin is close to the water, and he has taken the advantage, but the prince is not in the house all year round, and after returning to the house, he is also endlessly meeting people and talking about things, and he returned to the backyard from the study very late, and he can't be busy with a few Fujin, how can he have the energy to provoke them.

But being able to go out of Beijing with you is different, so when I hear this. The autumn equinox and Xiangqiao are both blushing and heartbeat, both a little shy and a little nervous. The movements of the hands naturally slowed down.

Yinzhen was very sensitive to it. can't help but be secretly funny, the autumn equinox and Xiangqiao are two girls, he is very familiar, and he has nothing to say about his appearance or figure. He also knew that these two maids were specially cultivated by Wan Yan Hairuo, in order to compete for favor. These two maids are from her side, and if she is favored, her position will naturally be stable.

Unexpectedly. Yesterday, it was said that Zhang Mengjiao was coming. Hai Ruo pushed the two maids out today, and in the future, Yuji ascended the throne, and I am afraid that this harem will compete for favor, but I want to learn some experience from Kangxi, Hai Ruo has a soft temperament. It also has to be a little bit more appropriate.

Thinking of this, Yinzhen couldn't help but chuckle and said, "I went out of Kyoto to lead the troops. What do you say with two maids? ”

Hearing this, the autumn equinox and Xiangqiao were of course disappointed, and Wanyan Hairuo was also slightly disappointed, but Yinzhen continued: "However, the autumn equinox and Xiangqiao are also not small, if the two of them have a favorite, they should also give them a marriage to save others from gossip." ”

As soon as he heard this, the autumn equinox and Xiangqiao were in the first place, and then he hurriedly took two steps back and knelt down and said: "Lord, the slave maid has been by Fujin's side since childhood, and I hope that the prince will never drive us out of the house." ”

"Hurry up and wait, the master is still in a hurry to see someone." Yinzhen said warmly, and then looked at Wan Yan Hairuo and said: "In the past few years, I haven't asked for a maid to wait, since these two maids are not the ones you like, just call me over, you can find another two." ”

After Yan Hairuo heard it, he hurriedly squatted and said, "Thank you for being compassionate." After speaking, he said to the two maids: "Don't thank the prince for his grace?" ”

*

As soon as he went out, Yinzhen found that the sky began to snow again, the snow was not big, and the ground was not fully wet.

Entering the Yin'an Palace, the eighth elder brother Yinzhen and other four people all got up and greeted two steps, Yinzhen smiled and greeted the four of them, and then stretched out his hand to give up his seat, after sitting down, Yinzhen smiled and said: "Regarding the celebration of the 60th birthday of the emperor, Chen Zongbo (Dazongbo, the honorific title of the Ministry of Rites. I didn't feel down, so I came to visit early in the morning. ”…,

Chen Yuanlong, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, immediately took out two excerpts and presented them, and said in a deep voice: "Fourteenth Master, this is November this year, the Ministry of Rites invited the Holy Birthday Celebration and the Minister of Beijing to invite the emperor to honor the two folds, and also asked the Fourteenth Master to look at it. ”

The Ministry of Rites has already invited you? Yinzhen was quite surprised to take it, and opened the fold on it to see that it was a fold on the Ministry of Rites, and the Ministry of Rites asked:

"In the fifty-second year of Kangxi, I congratulated the emperor on the 60th anniversary, Chinese and foreign subjects, all of whom do not want to respect their relatives and wear them, the ode to the boundless, and the ministers and other positions should be held in the ceremony.

The following are densely packed with Kangxi's imperial approvals:

"Since I have been in the extreme, I only want all countries to be safe, the upper is to respect the heavens and the ancestors, and the lower is to make the name in the future generations, so that the cumin is so white that the blood is dissipated, and the worries and diligence are exhausted, and the dangers and obstacles are smoothed. Since the reign of the emperor in ancient times, those who have enjoyed themselves have often returned to other reasons, and the emperor has not been forgiven, and it is really unbearable to be tired, and he is forced by fear to enjoy the eternal life.

I think repeatedly, the former emperor Yao's blessings must be like the king of my arrival, so that I can know that the sage is true, and the rest will never know. I have reigned for more than 50 years, and my life has doubled since I reached 60 years, and my blood is gradually exhausted.

The performance of the Ministry of Rites is all fiction and has no reality. I wish that the ministers will be filial piety, brothers, friends and brothers, everyone will read the right books, do their jobs, the country will be safe and the people will be governed, the thieves will rest in peace, and everyone will be honest and will celebrate my six ranks, and I will be Jiana. In addition, I have nothing to love and nothing to enjoy. This is not allowed. ”

Kangxi refuted the Ministry of Rites for the Holy Birthday Celebration? Yinzhen frowned, and looked at it from the beginning again, Kangxi's tone was sincere, not a lie, he couldn't help but be a flurry, the rumors were wrong? Kangxi is not willing to hold a 60th birthday celebration? He opened another fold, which was played by the ministers.

The kings, Baylor, Beizi, Gong, civil and military ministers and officials played: "Qin Wei my emperor is the most holy and godly, and he allows literature and martial arts." The road runs through the three poles, and the honor is matched with two instruments. Since the imperial pole, respecting the heavens and the ancestors, diligent government and loving the people, respecting the sun, working endlessly, eating and drinking, working hard for more than 50 years, thick and deep benevolence, and those who have been turned into the wind, more than 1,000 countries.

In terms of merit, it surpasses the three kings. Yude includes the two emperors. Swinging and towering, Lin Lin Bingbing, since the birth of the people of the smart heaven, learned, respect for pure filial piety, benevolence to righteousness, the sound of teaching and not like my emperor also, is to the fortune of the prosperous period, a person has a celebration, Tianxi pure, longevity without borders, the rate of Xianning, Zhaomin Yonglai, Xun Yu Defu and Long, into the peace of the extreme.

Ministers and other ministers have led civil and military ministers, officials, military and civilians, etc., and have repeatedly invited the Holy Spirit of civil and military affairs to be honored by Guangyun, and my emperor has not been allowed by Yu Yu, and now he is happy to celebrate the birthday of sixty years. The Ministry of Rites played to celebrate, but Yu did not allow it, how could the ministers dare to play it again?

However, the saint is Chonglong, the subjects love, Wanfang Puqing is a thousand years old, dare to do his best, and call on my emperor to bow down to public opinion, allow the honorific title, Lunyin Tepei, Judian Yuzhao, then the ministers are very fortunate, and the world is very fortunate. ”

On this excerpt, Kangxi's imperial reply is shorter, "I have been here for a long time, and every time I read and appreciate the ancients, I read the way of the king in the world, but it is based on solidity and practical government." If you extravagantly display merits, add honorific titles, and take a false name, it will not help to govern the Tao, and I don't like it. The former kings and ministers have repeatedly asked for it, and I have written instructions by hand, and the edict is not allowed. I got it. ”

Yinzhen read it, and didn't make a sound for a long time, Kangxi didn't have a honorific title in his life, he was clear, but Kangxi's 60th birthday was indeed a lively celebration, and in the end of the Qing Dynasty, the famous Qiansu banquet started from Kangxi's 60th birthday, but why did Kangxi so earnestly refute the twists and turns of the Shengshou celebration of the Ministry of Rites? ..., in the palace, Li Dequan also said in person, Kangxi has the intention of doing a big job, and he is also ready to invite the elderly over 65 years old in the world, regardless of the government and the people, to go to Beijing to celebrate, this is not the first Qiansu banquet?

Seeing that Yinzhen was silent, the eighth elder brother Yinzhen said in a deep voice: "I heard that the fourteenth brother is going to hold a sixtieth birthday celebration for Huang Ama, Chen Zongbo really can't figure out the emperor's intentions, so I came to ask the fourteenth brother to have an idea. ”

Chen Yuanlong also said: "The emperor has always advocated frugality, and holding a big celebration will inevitably be extravagant and wasteful, and the lower officials are really worried about provoking the emperor not to be happy. ”

After being silent for a long time, Yinzhen glanced at a few people and asked, "What do you think, brother?" ”

After holding back for a long time, the tenth elder brother Yinqi was already impatient, and immediately said when he heard the words: "The 60th birthday of the people has to be done in a big way, let alone the emperor?" ”

"The tenth brother is reasonable." Lao Jiu Yinyu also echoed: "Huang Ama doesn't want to make a big deal, that's compassion, we can't help but be conscious." ”

"I'm also advocating a big deal." Eighth Elder Brother Yinxi nodded and said: "However, Chen Zongbo's worries are not superfluous, if this ruins Huang Ama's mood, we will lose more than we gain, it will really become spending money to buy sin." ”

Will Kangxi be tempting? Yinzhen suddenly came up with this idea, thinking about it and feeling that it was not very likely, he pondered for a while, and then he said: "The Qing Dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and the emperor Ama has a 60th birthday, how can he follow the ordinary gift of longevity, and he must do it in a big way, besides, all the expenses of this big celebration do not consume national funds, but all the princes and princesses raise funds to celebrate, and the emperor Ama will not be displeased." ”

As soon as I heard that all the princes and princesses raised funds to celebrate, the old eight and a few people couldn't help but be surprised, didn't the old fourteen say that he did it alone? How much money does this have to be shared? The three of them all looked at Yinzhen in unison, and their hearts beat drums.

Yinzhen smiled slightly, and said: "It's just in your name, let Huang Ama be happy, starling, you guys will pay two thousand taels each, if you want to be embarrassed, I'll put it on for you?" ”

As soon as they heard that it was only two thousand taels, the three of them were relieved, and the eighth elder brother Yinxi smiled and said: "Huang Ama has a sixty holy life, how can we not pull out a dime?" These two thousand taels are too little, set it at twenty thousand taels, otherwise you can't say it. ”
