For the next three days, the prince talked about selling officials day and night.

Who let him owe too much, and his minions can't pay it off.

Seeing that the thirteenth master was helped by the fourth master.

The tenth master or the eighth and ninth masters helped to pay it back.

The most incredible thing is that the honest and romantic third master actually returned Kangxi's own money.

But the prince's temperament, none of the servants at the bottom dared to help him pay back the money, or lend him money.

Because he usually falsely accused many officials under him.

Sometimes under the guise of borrowing money, it is never repaid.

Who dares to help him, I wish I could hide far away.

Fortunately, there are still a lot of turtles in the Qing Dynasty, and they are so poor that only the shallow ones remain.

plus those businessmen, they want to be an official in their family.

It's like being an honest official, the poor family only has fame, and I can't wait for someone in the family to be a businessman.

Or they may be forced to get some oil and water, and finally start to rot.

So, the crown prince sold ten official positions in three days.

Either to salt merchants, or to cloth merchants, medicine merchants.

In the end, a total of 1.1 million taels of silver were sold.

not only helped him pay off the debts owed by the imperial court.

He also paid off all the debts he had outside.

There are still tens of thousands of taels of silver left, and this transaction is well done.

The prince, who is debtless and light, only thinks about relaxation, but he doesn't think about the future.

I just want to have nothing to do, and I want to make a stumbling block for the fourth master.

He called a few officials under the door who really owed money, and ran to Kangxi's residence to kneel and cry.

Forget it, after the eighth master heard it, he also joined in the fun.

ordered people to go to the Qianqing Palace, and they knelt and cried the same.

Moreover, it also makes people stage a farce of suicide.

However, not waiting for this farce to begin.

Wei Dongting, the big celebrity in front of Kangxi, really couldn't stand the debt and hanged himself at home!

In the early morning of the next day, Kangxi could no longer turn a blind eye.

He called the princes and ministers to the outside of the Qianqing Palace.

The so-called Daqi is that the officials above the fourth grade are all standing outside the gate of the Qianqing Palace.

Kangxi sat on the steps, with the servants holding the Huang Luo umbrella and looking down at the courtiers below.

Liang Jiugong pulled his throat and said: "Early dynasty, ascend to court!" ”

The ministers began to kneel.

Seeing this, Kangxi didn't shout, but his voice was like a bell: "Under normal circumstances, I won't make you up." But what happened recently is really unusual! ”

Hearing this, one by one, where did they dare to get up, for fear that they would be named after a while.

"It's just to recover the arrears, and there are ten elder brothers who sell their properties on the street and flog the court officials. The officials cried poor in my Qianqing Palace, and even Wei Dongting, who had accompanied me to pacify the three feudatories and recover Taizhou, committed suicide because he couldn't pay off his debts, I want to ask you, what did you do with the treasury when you borrowed money, you are the people of the Qing Dynasty, and the treasury is the root of the Qing Dynasty! ”

As soon as these words came out, the ministers buried their heads even lower.

Kangxi glanced at the one wearing a black hat and hanging his head at the latest.

directly named and said: "Old ten, as an elder brother, you owe so much silver to the treasury, what are you doing?" ”

"Back to the emperor Ama, the sons and ministers have already paid it off!" The tenth elder brother replied aggrievedly.

"It really doesn't matter if you pay it off or not, you only answer me, what are you doing with that money, if it weren't for the fourth child chasing the treasury this time, would you still owe it."

"How can it, Erchen borrowed money, naturally he had to manage the expenses of the house, be decent, and not lose your face. Moreover, the retainers did not repay it by themselves, but borrowed money everywhere to pay it back. The tenth master frowned back.

"Nearly 20,000 taels a year, your mother also left you a lot of silver during her lifetime, and I and she also gave you a few pieces of Zhuangzi, and you are still crying here to be poor! Speaking of shame, what else is more humiliating than going to the streets of the capital to call a seller and whipping the court officials, you have read all these years in vain. ”

"Erchen can't read in the first place, but some of them can read and fly, and they owe more than Erchen?" The tenth master was angry.

At the end, he also glared at the back of the third master in the front row.

"Who are you talking about here!" Kangxi's voice was a little louder.

"Third brother, didn't he owe 400,000 taels of silver, that's more than Erchen, not only did you not talk about him, but also made an exception to pay off his debts with his own silver. The tenth master said with a flat mouth.

That look is really a son complaining in front of his old father.

Aggrieved Baba recounts the pitiful appearance of the old father's partiality towards his brother.

"What are you like, I'm embarrassed to ask me, I'll tell you something in front of the big guy today. The third elder brother gathered a group of well-educated people and compiled dozens of books, including "Ancient and Modern Books Collection", which covers everything from astronomy to geography, including people, birds, beasts, insects, and even literature, music, and so on. There is also a book on astronomy, mathematics and music theory, which has also been written and will be printed soon. ”

At this time, the printing was not as good as the modern era, but it was much stronger than the previous dynasty, and it belonged to movable type printing.

It is through the use of movable metal or clay blocks to replace traditional transcription, or printing plates that cannot be reused.

The method of movable type printing is to first make a single word of the Yang text reverse text mold, and then according to the manuscript to select the single words, arrange them in the word plate, and ink printing.

After printing, the font will be removed and reused again for the next typesetting.

"In the past, he spent his own money in order to compile books, but he really couldn't do it, so he explained the reason to me. Not only will I pay him back the money, but I will also ask the household department to allocate money to him every month, so that he can devote himself to literary works. ”

"Look at you again, you spend all day wandering around the capital, either buying jewelry to make women happy, or chartering a venue to listen to the play, I heard that you also bought two theaters in the capital, do you want to stay in the theater in your life or what! Now I'm embarrassed to be compared with the third child, I haven't asked you yet, what is the crime of whipping the court officials that day! ”

At this moment, the tenth master was blocked by Kangxi and was speechless.

Originally, he was upset and felt that Kangxi was eccentric.

Now I'm afraid, I'm going to be punished.

Where do you still have the confidence to speak?

"Huang Ama, tenth brother, he is this character, please spare him this time." The ninth master raised his head and spoke for the tenth master.

"Spare a fart, I have to let him stay in the Zongren Mansion for three months!" Kangxi ordered directly.

"Huang Ama, the son knows that he is wrong, and he must learn from the third brother in the future!" The Ten Masters kowtowed.

Kangxi is indeed easy to be soft-hearted towards his son.

But it's also for the kind of people who have been brought up by their side since childhood, or the kind that has a future.

For the straw bag like the tenth master, Kangxi was not soft-hearted at all.
