The children looked at each other, but Honghui stood up as the eldest grandson, "If you go back to Mafa, we didn't quarrel, it's just that Brother Hongchen and Brother Honghui are curious about the customs and customs of Guangzhou, and my younger brothers and I are just explaining to them." ”

"Customs." Kangxi followed a sentence, hooked his lips slightly, and when he was interested, he wanted to test these three grandchildren. Then he asked: "Then you come to tell Mara what the customs of Guangzhou are like?" ”

Honghui frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Back to Mafa, my grandson thinks that the people of Guangzhou are not much different from the people of Beijing. It's just that because it is close to the coast and somewhat remote, it is not easy for ordinary people to survive. It is also because Haikou has been opened up in recent years, and foreigners have come to do business, that they have begun to become rich. But even the more remote places are still poor. ”

Kangxi knew this, and when he heard Honghui say this, he understood that these children were really not in vain in Guangzhou.

Thinking about it, Kangxi turned his gaze to Hongda again, and said as if gossiping: "Tell me, what do you think of Guangzhou?" ”

Hongda was stunned for a moment, Huang Ma Fa had not asked him such a separate question, took a deep breath, and Hongda said respectfully: "If you go back to Ma Fa, my grandson thinks that Guangzhou is a very important Haikou, because of the foreign businessmen's exchanges, the people of Guangzhou are more open-minded and tolerant. But correspondingly, if there are dark foreign businessmen who want to deceive people in our Qing Dynasty, or frequently cause trouble, the people of Guangzhou are indeed the first to bear the brunt. Therefore, Sun Er thought that for Guangzhou, someone should be carefully supervised. ”

After Hongda finished speaking, Kangxi hooked his lips slightly, although he did not speak, he was obviously very satisfied with Hongda's answer.

Even the Yinchu, Yinji and others present were also very surprised. What Hongda said was not very good, but for such a child, it was already very good.

Yinji couldn't help but look at his son, the stinky boy is very hardworking, and he is also very talented and hard working in learning. It's just that compared with these boys from the second brother's family, it is indeed a little worse.

Yinren smiled and looked at his three sons with a slight satisfaction.

And Kangxi, at this time, has turned his attention to Hongsheng, Hongsheng is the prince's son-in-law, that is, his grandson! For this child, Kangxi's expectations are even higher.

After a pause, Kangxi asked, "Hongsheng, tell me, what do you think of those barbarians?" ”

Kangxi said, and the audience quieted down, this question, not only Hongsheng, but also Yinchu, Yinji and others have no accurate answer to how to treat foreign barbarians.

Hongsheng was not afraid at all, took a step forward, and said loudly in immature language: "Sun Er thinks that Sage Kong has a saying that is very right. ”

"What?" Kangxi took a rare answer.

"If you are a threesome, you must have my teacher." After a pause, Hongsheng continued: "Sun Er doesn't understand, why do you call those foreigners barbarians? The predecessors called the ethnic groups other than the Chinese people barbarians, which means that the places with unenlightened minds and unreasonable are barbarians. ”

"Those foreigners, although they are remote, have their own culture, otherwise, how could those missionaries come to our Qing Dynasty to preach? Therefore, from this point of view, those foreigners are not barbarians at all. ”

This general statement is fresh, and everyone present listened carefully to Hongsheng's answer.
