Chapter 40: Kangxi
In the inner hall of the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City, the imperial doctor knelt on the ground, and the Kangxi Emperor sat on the kang with his hands on the kang table, and the eagle falcon looked around, "Is the Empress Dowager's life in danger?" โ
"Back to the words of the Long Live Lord, the ginseng offered by Miss Li has a thousand-year-old aura, which is a rare spiritual root, and the Queen Mother will surely recover after taking the medicine."
"Linggen?"
The imperial physician was busy explaining to Emperor Kangxi what the spiritual root was, citing scriptures and classics to show off his knowledge, and there was no need to be helpless about the Empress Dowager's condition. โ
The imperial physician shook his head and said: "The thousand-year-old ginseng was taken out of the jade box, the aura dissipated, the queen mother's phoenix body was heavy, and there was a lot of medicine, and only a few spiritual whiskers remained. โ
"I am satisfied to be able to save the Empress Dowager and protect my ancestors." Emperor Kangxi Longyan Dayue, because the Empress Dowager's condition improved, laughed heartily: "Reward, Li Dequan rewards meritorious people, Li ยทยทยท Lee what..."
"Long live the Lord is Li Zhiqing." Li Dequan reminded on the side, "It is the granddaughter of Shu Mulu Jiha, the prince of Zhongyong, who entered the palace with Prince An's old Fujin, and the empress dowager left her in the palace after she sobered up." โ
"Loyal and brave duke... Jihaยทยทยท" Emperor Kangxi pursed his lips, "I haven't heard this name for a long time, is he still there?" โ
The imperial doctor drooped his head, eager to sew his ears shut, listen to the emperor's meaning, and was not satisfied with the Zhongyong Gong, but the second son of the Zhongyong Gong, Shu Mulu Zhiyuan, was promoted back to Beijing, even if he had the ability, it was a miracle to rise from the seventh grade to the third rank in just ten years, and it was impossible to do it without taking care of him, the Duke of Zhongyong's Mansion had long since faded out of the court, it is said that Shu Mulu Zhiyuan had a straight temper, and the old duke did not like it, and he didn't care about him for more than ten years, Shu Mulu Zhizhi was far from relying on the protection of the family, how did he rise up? No one stumbles, and it is not easy to mix in officialdom.
"Long live the lord, it was this Li Zhiqing who used ginseng to save the loyal and brave prince a few years ago."
"Imperial Doctor Li, didn't you say that spiritual roots are rare?" Emperor Kangxi asked slowly, "Does Li Zhiqing still have ginseng?" โ
"Back to the emperor, according to Miss Li, it is the last thousand-year-old ginseng."
Emperor Kangxi's disappointed look flashed, "You go down, if the Empress Dowager's condition changes again, I will take off your crown." โ
"Wow."
The imperial doctor bowed his body and retreated step by step, until he withdrew from the door, and Emperor Kangxi's eyes were deep, "Li Dequan, what's going on in the Duke of Zhongyong's mansion?" How can Li have a thousand-year-old spiritual root? โ
"Long live Lord, the slave maid really doesn't know, Li Zhiqing is only eight or nine years old, and it is said that there will be no Linggen ginseng."
"What about espionage? I've all become deaf and blind, and they're all eating dry food? โ
Li Dequan knelt on the ground, "Long live the anger, long live the anger, it's the negligence of the espionage, no one expected that there would be an accident in the Duke's Mansion except for Lord Zhiyuan." โ
"Hmph." Emperor Kangxi held Chengquan in his hand and knocked on the kang table, "The Duke of Zhongyong's Mansion has been re-included in the scope of supervision." โ
"Wow."
Li Dequan quietly withdrew, and Emperor Kangxi shook his head and sighed: "The Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager." Kangxi closed his voice, he had no intention of reviewing the folds, the wide tea leaves fell into contemplation, the Qianqing Palace was silent, and the palace maids and eunuchs hung their heads and stood silently, afraid of beating the emperor's thoughts.
About half an hour later, Li Dequan re-entered the door and announced: "Long live Lord, Shu Mulu Zhiyuan was first beaten by Zhongyong Gong and blackened his eyes, and then beaten by the old lady. โ
"Oh, tell me about it."
Li Dequan saw that Emperor Kangxi was interested, and said: "It is said that it is because of the clan learning, Zhongyong Gong said that he couldn't say that his son, so he started to teach his son, as for the old lady..." Li Dequan peeked at Emperor Kangxi, couldn't see the extra emotion, and lowered his voice: "It's because of Li Zhiqing's manifestation of spiritual root ginseng..."
"He is against giving ginseng to the Empress Dowager?"
"It's not all about going back to the emperor." Li Dequan shook his head again and again, "Listening to the reports of the people around Lord Zhiyuan, he is afraid that Linggen'er will have sequelae, even if there is no sequelae, it is an extremely rare ginseng that should be dedicated to the Long Live Lord, and the decision of the Long Live Lord will be made." โ
The implication was that Li Zhiqing and the old lady went to Prince An's mansion with thousand-year-old ginseng and went straight to Cining Palace, and Emperor Kangxi Zhiyuan, who crossed the Wanmin Dynasty, disagreed, Kangxi said: "Was beaten by his mother? โ
"Yes, after ten boards, the slave maid heard that it was the Duchess who was annoyed and angry, and Lord Zhiyuan thought that the old lady should not leave Li Zhiqing in the palace."
"Alright." Kangxi waved his hand, Li Dequan immediately shut up, Emperor Kangxi mentioned the imperial pen to play the excerpt, just when Li Dequan thought that the long live Lord would not pay attention to this matter anymore, Kangxi suddenly said: "Reward the Duchess of Zhongyong with ten brocades, and posthumously seal Li what..."
"Li Shi Zhiqing." Li Dequan reminded again, it seems that after saving the Empress Dowager, Li Zhiqing still has no status in front of the emperor, but... Li Dequan didn't dare to think deeply, serving by the side of the Long Live Lord, he listened to whatever the master said, and the sacred heart was unpredictable.
"Her father was rewarded with a Jinshi background."
"Wow."
Emperor Kangxi's hand holding the pen paused, "I ordered someone to inquire about where she got her spiritual root ginseng, she was pregnant with this treasure at a young age, and she didn't know how to cherish it, and she was not blessed." โ
"Wow."
"Shu Mulu Zhiyuan, he..." Kangxi put down the imperial pen, and tried to recall that he had seen Zhiyuan from afar when he was in the court, his face was blurred, and he could only learn about him from the people under the arrangement, "I have to find a chance to meet him, Zhiyuan didn't suffer in vain." โ
Li Dequan thought so, and cleverly expressed to everyone that he was only loyal to the emperor, worried about the Empress Dowager's illness, but he did not act recklessly, taking into account all aspects, old and steady, Li Dequan looked at the meaning of the long live Lord, such as Shu Mulu Zhiyuan joined the sacred heart, he would be able to entrust him with a heavy responsibility, Li Zhiqing's offering of ginseng could not be hidden, and Zhiyuan could not be concealed when he was beaten, the emperor was used to being high, and he did not want the courtiers to figure out the holy will, but in some things, Long Live Lord hoped that the courtiers and nobles would know who was their master, so that they could explain the smart people to do things.
In the palace of the clan in the capital, there is not only one Shu Mulu Zhiyuan who is really a smart person, because Li Zhiqing went to the people of the Duke's Mansion, the emperor will not look at it, and the old lady of the Duke's Mansion is in trouble, and more and more people will come to the door to ask for ginseng.
"He's in charge of the embankment in the Ministry of Industry?"
Li Dequan replied: "Yes, the official of the Ministry of Works, only under the waiter." โ
"Spread the decree and ordered Shu Mulu Zhiyuan to go to check the embankment of the Yellow River."
"Yes."
Emperor Kangxi continued to order: "Order the four concubines to take turns to serve the empress dowager, and order the prince's sons to serve the sick on my behalf." โ
"Yes."
Kangxi made several wills in a row, making people confused, after the Guarjia clan followed Zhiyuan's order, Tong Jiashi and others sneered, Zhicheng's face was secretly happy, and the Guarjia clan sneered and helped Zhiyuan back to the courtyard, Zhiyuan wondered: "Madam, is the emperor too good to me?" โ
The Guerjia clan almost stumbled, and her husband guessed the deep meaning of the emperor's move, "Master, isn't the Sacred Heart very good?" โ
"It's not clear, my heart is not steady."
Guerjia's Fu Zhiyuan collapsed and persuaded: "The emperor will not openly fight against the empress dowager, the old man Jane is in the emperor's heart, and he will stand in the court with his ability and talent, so he doesn't have to be unsteady." โ
"I was taught for my husband."
ps replied to the pro's message, Zhiyuan was beaten not because he was blocked from offering ginseng, since he wanted to give it to Emperor Kangxi, Kangxi didn't want people to guess his thoughts, but in some major matters, Kangxi still hopes that there will be a minister who understands his mind, so it's easy to do things, and you don't need to pick out the words, Zhiyuan is smart, and the important ministers in the capital who can really stand tall are also smart people. I hope that the explanation of this chapter can make you understand, Zhiyuan, his foundation is very thick, which is helpful to Shu Yao's leisurely rice worm life, and once again emphasizes that this is an era of fighting for father, mother, and family.
