Chapter 266: Ancient "Star Making"
Accompanied by Yun Yao, Kangxi went to the place that Yun Yao arranged for Changsheng, and as soon as he entered the door, Kangxi looked left and right and praised: "Concubine Ai has a heart, and Changsheng will be handed over to Concubine Ai to raise, and I will be relieved." ”
Kangxi saw that Changsheng's room was extremely exquisitely decorated and very attentive, and Kangxi also praised Yun Yao for this.
Yun Yao smiled when she heard this: "The emperor has a good reputation, since the emperor has handed over his immortality to his concubines to raise, how can the concubines not do their best, this is the duty of the concubines." ”
Kangxi shook his head when he heard this, and didn't say anything. In his heart, he had a good impression of Yun Yao's answer.
After seeing Changsheng, Kangxi looked at Changsheng with some pity, and said to Yun Yao: "Changsheng was born with many disasters and difficulties, I only hope that he can be safe, and no matter how much he has, I don't care." Aifei also takes care of the immortal body. ”
Kangxi's words made Yun Yao a little stunned, and it took a long time to react to Kangxi's meaning. Kangxi, this is implicitly guaranteeing to her that immortality will not affect the status of her children.
Yun Yao didn't know how to react to this, and was a little stunned.
Seeing Yun Yao's confused expression, Kangxi didn't explain, just skipped the topic with a smile, and then said: "If Concubine Ai doesn't understand, she will understand one day." Obviously, Kangxi felt that Yun Yao was still young, and his mind was not very deep, so it was not surprising that he didn't understand his words.
Yun Yao saw Kangxi say this, and she was also glad that she didn't react so quickly. But Yun Yao really didn't think about this problem, after all, Kangxi reigned for sixty-one years.
However, Yun Yao thought that Kangxi couldn't know how long he could live, otherwise he wouldn't have set up a prince so soon in his previous life, although there are many political factors, but this is enough to show that Kangxi has been thinking about the heir for a long time.
Yun Yao thought of this joint, and she somewhat understood the purpose of Kangxi's words today.
And Kangxi had no intention of talking about this topic, and after leaving the place where Changsheng lived, he came to Yunyao Palace, and turned to talk about Ling Tai.
"Ling Tai has passed the government examination now, do you plan to participate in the entrance examination next year?"
Yun Yao was a little surprised by the rapid change in Kangxi's thinking, but it did not affect Yun Yao's answer, so she said to Kangxi: "Your Majesty, if the concubine is not mistaken, it won't be the time to try next year, right?" ”
When Kangxi heard this, he smiled and said, "I'm going to open Enke next year, so I can also take the exam next year!" ”
Yun Yao listened to Kangxi's explanation and couldn't help but think about Kangxi's intentions, in fact, with Ling Tai's age, it was already a fluke to be able to pass the Shuntian Mansion Examination, Yun Yao also understood Ling Tai's learning progress, for the exam, Ling Tai's level could only be said reluctantly, since Kangxi talked about this matter, he should have known Ling Tai's level a long time ago, why did he ask her about this matter?
Therefore, Yun Yao could only say tentatively: "The concubine and Ling Tai have not studied together for a long time, and the concubine doesn't know whether his specific level has reached the standard of the examination, if he fails the examination, it will be a bit embarrassing!" ”
Yun Yao's words made Kangxi undeniable, Kangxi said: "Concubine Ai underestimates Ling Tai too much, Ling Tai's level is not bad, presumably it is not difficult to try against Ling Tai." ”
Yun Yao couldn't help but be a little surprised when she heard Kangxi say this, Yun Yao didn't know Ling Tai's level, Kangxi said this is tantamount to opening his eyes and talking nonsense, if Ling Tai's level is to participate in the examination, even if he is lucky enough to be admitted, he is just a top three fellow jinshi.
This is also the reason why Tu Hai and her Ama are not in a hurry to let Ling Tai take the exam, even this time to take the exam, Yun Yao has to admit that most of it is her reason, Ling Tai should come out so early to make her feel better in the palace and suffer less criticism!
So for Kangxi's abnormality, Yun Yao was really a little confused.
However, Yun Yao still followed Kangxi's words and said: "If the emperor recognizes Ling Tai's level, then the concubine will be relieved." ”
Kangxi also said with satisfaction when he heard this: "Concubine Ai, don't worry, I have also seen Ling Tai's test papers when he was in the house exam, and among the people, Ling Tai's level is one of the best!" ”
Yun Yao smiled when he heard this: "The emperor also thinks too highly of Ling Tai, not to mention anything else, it only shows that the sons of the adult family are much higher than Ling Tai, how can Ling Tai He De compare to other Junjie?" ”
Kangxi heard Yun Yao mention Nalan Chengde, and asked in some surprise: "Concubine Ai also knows Rong Ruo's reputation?" ”
Yun Yao said a little shyly when she heard this: "The emperor is smiling, Nalan sex... Chengde has an excellent reputation in our Manchurian family, and the concubine's uncle has repeatedly cited this Nalan prince as an example to inspire Ling Tai, how can the concubine not know his name? ”
When she spoke, Yun Yao almost said Nalan Chengde's name wrong, but now Nalan Chengde has not changed his name to Nalan Xingde because he avoided the nickname of Prince Yinren Baocheng, Yun Yao almost forgot.
Kangxi laughed dumbly when he heard this, and said, "I don't know that Rong Ruo's reputation has spread so far?" ”
Yun Yao saw that Kangxi was very close to Nalan Rongruo, and also said two good words, and said: "The concubines have all heard of the reputation of Nalan Gongzi, and I think his literary talent is also first-class, but the concubines have never heard of Nalan Gongzi's imperial examination?" Does the emperor know why? ”
Yun Yao knew Nalan Rongruo's reputation, and naturally knew that Nalan Rongruo would only participate in the Shuntianfu Mansion Examination next year, and succeeded in one fell swoop, and took the examination again the following year, becoming the seventh Jinshi in the second class, and Kangxi and Nalan Rongruo wanted to get close, and they also knew Nalan Rongruo's knowledge very well, Yun Yao asked this question must make Kangxi a lot happy.
To Yun Yao's surprise, Kangxi didn't know much about Nalan Rongruo, but asked with some confusion: "Concubine Ai is very concerned about Rong Ruo's affairs, but I don't know what Rong Ruo thinks?" ”
These Yun Yao had nothing to say, but at this time, Yun Yao suddenly thought that the reason why Kangxi and Nalan Rongruo were very close was because after Nalan Rongruo was admitted to the Jinshi, Kangxi specially ordered Nalan Rongruo to serve as a third-class guard, and he was appreciated by Kangxi every day.
At this time, Nalan Rongruo was just a son-in-law who was related to the royal family, Kangxi admired Nalan Rongruo at most at this time, but before he was admitted to the Jinshi, Kangxi didn't pay much attention to him.
Thinking about this stubble, Yun Yao suddenly realized, and hurriedly explained to Kangxi: "When the concubine heard that the previous lady of Lord Kupilon said that the emperor valued Prince Nalan very much, it seems that the concubine's news is wrong!" ”
Kangxi smiled when he heard this: "This kind of news Concubine Ai actually believes, I remember that the wife of Kubilong is the eldest daughter of Prince Ying, and she is also Rong Ruo's aunt, and I think it is also because she loves her nephew, but I really don't know much about Rong Ruo, I only know that he is one of the few young heroes in our Manchurian people, but he is compared with Ling Tai, after all, he did not participate in the imperial examination, so he fell into the inferior!" ”
When Yun Yao heard this, she was very weak-hearted, comparing Ling Tai with Nalan Rongruo, a talented man who has left a name in history, Yun Yao didn't dare to say these words no matter how arrogant she was, if Ling Tai was stronger than Nalan Rongruo, even Yun Yao herself didn't believe it!
Therefore, Yun Yao said to Kangxi very modestly: "The emperor praised it falsely, the prince of Nalan is a handsome man for a while, and Ling Tai only accounts for the young age, so the emperor praises him so much, if Ling Tai is stronger than the prince of Nalan, the concubines don't dare to think so." ”
Kangxi was just humble as Yun Yao, and said: "Concubine Ai doesn't have to be modest, with Ling Tai's age, it is rare for someone to be able to lift people in the Han at this age, let alone us are full of people." Look at what those Hanchen said that we are not educated, and when Ling Tai becomes a jinshi, no one should say that the Manchus don't know how to write and ink! ”
Kangxi said that he was very happy in the end, obviously thinking that Ling Tai's existence made him, an emperor from a full background, breathe a sigh of relief!
Yun Yao saw that Kangxi's tone felt that Ling Tai's existence had suppressed the Han people, and she suddenly realized. The reason why Kangxi stared at Ling Tai with blank eyes and wanted Ling Tai to participate in the examination next year was to prove that the Manchurians were not all people who did not know poetry and books, and there were also huge political interests in this.
After all, most of the people ruled by the Qing Dynasty were Han Chinese, so there must be Manchu people in the imperial examination, so that the Han people can have a higher degree of identification with the imperial court.
Yun Yao remembered that in the previous life, the reason why Nalan Rongruo was so famous was not without this reason, Kangxi probably also had this meaning, and most of the people around Nalan Rongruo were Han people, which alleviated the hostility of many Han people towards the Manchurians.
And if Ling Tai is admitted to the Jinshi, it will make the Manchus begin to pay attention to the imperial examination, after all, most of the Manchus are distinguished by military merits, but only those who immediately fight the world, not the one who immediately governs the world, Kangxi undoubtedly understands this truth, then Ling Tai is an example for the Manchurians, and I also hope that there will be more civil servants among the Manchurians.
Second, at the stall where Yun Yao is about to be crowned queen, if Ling Tai shines, to a certain extent, it can also reduce the resistance of Kangxi to make Yun Yao the queen, after all, there are still many people who think that Yun Yao is just a side branch of Niu Hulu's family, not enough to rank in the middle palace.
Yun Yao thought of this key, and couldn't help but be very grateful for Kangxi's intentions, although Kangxi's move also meant to use Ling Tai, but for a monarch, being able to use a courtier was already considered a grace, not to mention the huge benefits that Ling Tai could get from here.
And thinking of Kangxi's attitude towards Nalan Rongruo in his previous life, Yun Yao felt that as long as Kangxi valued Ling Tai half of Nalan Rongruo, Yun Yao believed that Ling Tai's future would be limitless.
For example, the Hesheri family, Sony can stand tall because he is a rare civil servant among the Manchurians, because he will not be taboo by the emperor without military power, and he can also rely on his rare talents to govern the country for Kangxi, which is one of the reasons why the Hesheri family is still not completely disgusted by Kangxi.
Yun Yao is now in the palace, and naturally hopes that his family can prosper and support Yun Yao to a higher position.
After understanding Kangxi's plan, Yun Yao said to Kangxi: "Since the emperor thinks that there is no problem for Ling Tai to participate in the examination, then the concubine will let Ling Tai prepare for the examination." ”
Kangxi listened and said to Yun Yao: "Concubine Ai, don't worry, although it is a test for Ling Tai, it is not very difficult!" ”
Yun Yao said with a smile: "Thanks to the emperor's blessing, Ling Tai has already known the news of the exam in advance of others, if Ling Tai still fails the exam, then the concubine will doubt his ability." In this way, if Ling Tai is admitted to the Jinshi before getting married, it will be double happiness! ”
Kangxi listened to Yun Yao's words, although he felt that what Yun Yao said was a little whimsical, but Kangxi didn't feel bored, in Kangxi's heart, Yun Yao understood so much is already good, compared to the Hesheri clan, Yun Yao can already be regarded as a talented woman, and Kangxi will not ask too much.
And in the matter of Ling Tai, Kangxi is not ready to let Ling Tai fall off the list. What Yun Yao didn't know was that in the past, when Tuhai criticized Ling Tai, he used the standards of the Han people, but the difficulty of the imperial examination is flexible for the Manchus, after all, when it comes to the imperial examination, how can the Manchu people pass the Han people who read poetry and books, and even the Manchus who have taken the imperial examination in the past have a certain amount of moisture.
But Ling Tai's identity as a person is real, and it is because of this that Kangxi looks at Ling Tai differently. I feel that in the examination, as long as he is a little biased, Ling Tai's examination will be able to reach the top few of the top two.
However, Kangxi was worried that Ling Tai would be affected by other off-the-field factors, so he deliberately said to Yun Yao in a roundabout way and asked Yun Yao to pass the news to Ling Tai, after all, he was cheating in the open! This kind of thing makes people know that it is not very good-looking on the face after all.
Kangxi didn't have any trouble about this, after all, he didn't give the exam questions to Ling Tai, of course, if Ling Tai couldn't pass the exam under his preference, he had to let him tell him the exam questions to pass, and Kangxi didn't need such a waste.
Kangxi's psychology Yun Yao is not very clear, but Yun Yao is immersed in a very happy atmosphere, because Yun Yao knows that being selected by Kangxi to be the benchmark of the full people, the benefits of this are very huge for Ling Tai, and there is no need to worry about any risks, after all, the history that Yun Yao knows shows that it was Kangxi who won in the end, so Ling Tai, who followed Kangxi, can also gain a lot of things.
It can be said that Kangxi's portrayal of Ling Tai is no less than the modern star-making action, and Yun Yao is also happy to see it, but she is worried that Ling Tai will be under too much pressure because of this!
Thinking about this, Yun Yao has no scruples, this matter is actually harmless to Ling Tai Baili.
Yun Yao even thought that a few years later, in the process of cutting the domain, there must be many Manchu children who want to join the army, Yun Yao is not against Ling Tai to win credit for this, after Ling Tai joined the army in his previous life, although he was not injured, but because his boss was a greedy person, Ling Tai's credit was swallowed up, although Ling Tai was unharmed, but Ling Tai was also a little depressed because of this, and he had no heart for the imperial examination.
And in this life, Yun Yao didn't dare to bet on the possibility that Ling Tai would not be injured, after all, in this life, even she entered the palace early, if someone wanted to use Ling Tai as a breakthrough and inflict a certain blow on her, then Yun Yao would cry to death! Therefore, if Ling Tai is just a white body, then he is easily used as cannon fodder on the battlefield.
If Ling Tai had fallen into Kangxi's eyes before this, after Ling Tai entered the officialdom with the imperial examination, then Ling Tai would be much less threatened on the battlefield. Yun Yao can also rest assured.
It's like Nalan Rongruo, who was Kangxi's sideguard during the Three Feudatories, because following Kangxi, although he may not be able to make any contributions, at least his safety is guaranteed.
