Chapter 20 Lin Feng runs a newspaper

The matter of the deposed prince was not only spread in the palace, but the people of the capital were well-informed and were also speculating.

Ruoxi is a person close to Kangxi, and seeing Kangxi's troubles, he still seems to have the heart to restore the prince. If you can see Eighth Brother, you still have to remind him.

The morning sun first appeared, Kangxi was troubled in his heart, and he talked a lot less recently.

"Your Majesty, you have been tired all day, Ruoxi has prepared refreshments for you." Li Dequan saw Kangxi looking at Chaoyang motionless, approached Kangxi and said softly.

"Hmm... Good. Kangxi was also a little hungry.

Ruoxi saw Kangxi coming over and said, "Your Majesty, today's refreshments are specially made with the lotus stamens that the emperor admired when he was appreciating the lotus in the summer. It has a very elegant and elegant taste of lotus, so try it. ”

Although Kangxi was hungry, after eating this refreshment, he felt the same taste as chewing wax, and he stopped tasting it. He said softly: "Lotus...... Li Dequan, do you know what Lao Fourteen has been doing lately? ”

"Uh... Du Yu Si reported that the fourteenth elder brother was preparing to run the Beijing Daily. Li Dequan replied.

"Beijing News?" Kangxi didn't know what this Beijing News was, so he took Li Dequan's teacup and asked the old fourteen when he had time, these elder brothers have been in turmoil recently, only the fourteenth elder brother didn't say a word, didn't look for himself or make a speech, I don't know what he thinks. Kangxi took a sip of tea, frowned and asked, "What's added to this tea, why is it a little sweet, mixed with a little bitterness." ”

Ruoxi was listening to the Beijing newspaper in the clouds, and she didn't know what the Beijing newspaper did, Kangxi asked, she just wanted to answer, Li Dequan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, Ruoxi asked the slave, can you use ginkgo biloba to make tea." The servant asked her, and she replied, 'Today, the emperor occasionally has a cough and a little heartache, because it is a small illness, you are not too careful, it is better to use the brewed ginkgo biloba to make tea, which is simple and effective.' The servant asked the royal physician, and he said yes. So the minions are allowed. ”

Kangxi snorted, looked at Ruoxi again, and said, "Ruoxi, you are really careful." You can care so much about me, let alone your own parents. Your father and mother are so blessed to have a daughter like you..."

Kangxi's words were very lonely, and many sons had struggled fiercely in the past few days, which broke his heart a little. I felt that no one cared about me, and when I saw that Ruoxi could care about herself so much, I couldn't help but say words of envy.

Lin Feng picked up the time for Kangxi to review the folds and came to Xinuan Pavilion again. met Li Dequan at the door, and Li Dequan saluted respectfully.

"How is Huang Ama feeling lately?" Lin Feng asked softly.

Li Dequan didn't speak, he just shook his head, he was just about to tell the little eunuch to prepare dinner for Kangxi, but he met Lin Feng, so he had to turn back and go to Kangxi.

When Kangxi said that he had seen Lin Feng, Lin Feng raised his feet and went in.

As soon as he looked at his face, he saw Kangxi frowning, obviously in a bad mood. Lin Feng raised his eyes and saw Ruoxi standing aside, and after asking Kangxi to say goodbye, Kangxi also looked at him.

Kangxi put down the fold and said, "What have you been busy with lately?" These elder brothers of yours are now anxious about the prince's affairs, and I see that you are idle. Kangxi's voice was very cold, but Lin Feng had been much more low-key recently, and he was naturally not afraid of being caught by Kangxi without any handle.

Lin Feng chuckled and said, "Huang Ama, the sons and daughters are not idle, and they have been anxious about the prince's affairs recently. ”

"Oh?" A cold light flashed in Kangxi's eyes, and he thought to himself: "Could it be that the old fourteen also has the heart to compete for the reserve." ”

"Recently, there has been a lot of rumors about the prince in the capital, and the son thinks..."Lin Feng hesitated.

"What do you think?" Kangxi asked.

Lin Feng glanced at Ruoxi, Kangxi understood, and waved his hand.

"The minions are gone!" Ruoxi glanced at Lin Feng and didn't know what he was going to say to Kangxi. It just so happened that the fourteenth elder brother came, so give him the letter in a moment and ask him to bring it to the eighth master.

Lin Feng saw that Ruoxi had already retreated, and said: "Huang Ama, Erchen is going to establish a Beijing newspaper, which is a bit similar to the official residence newspaper, which is commercial in nature and guides the public opinion of the people. Now there are more and more literate people, so that the will of Huang Ama can be better conveyed to the people. ”

"Hmm..."Kangxi pondered for a while and said, "I also know that the matter of the prince is spreading in the capital, so it would be good if you could calm it down." ”

Lin Feng knew what Kangxi was thinking, and said: "Of course, the final review of this Beijing newspaper is still Huang Ama, but Huang Ama is busy with affairs and may not have time to sift through it. ”

Kangxi finally smiled when he heard this, although he didn't know as much about the means of controlling public opinion as Lin Feng, he also knew that it was very important. Even if Lin Feng took the initiative to take over the matter, it would be impossible for him to agree.

"A respectable old minister? What do you mean? Kangxi stared at Lin Feng and asked.

Lin Feng smiled and said, "Huang Ama, the sons and daughters rarely interact with officials, and I don't know, so please ask the emperor to appoint the sons." Lin Feng is still like that, in fact, he colluded with a lot of officials, but the means were dark, and even Kangxi didn't know it.

Kangxi thought back to the old ministers of the court, Suo Etu was detained, and Mingzhu, Xu Qianxue, and Gao Shiqi were not suitable. Then the only minister he can trust is Li Guangdi. Kangxi is very fond of Li Guangdi, even if he elects the eighth elder brother as the prince, he is not annoyed. Because this old minister is not a party, he is a national soldier.

Kangxi was about to open his mouth, but he felt that Lin Feng was beating Li Guangdi's idea, if he personally stuffed Li Guangdi to the fourteenth, then the fourteenth elder brother had Li Guangdi and one of his protΓ©gΓ©s and former officials would definitely be the best candidates to compete for the prince. Now the old fourteen is not only responsible for the manufacture of guns and firearms, but also the ocean-going navy is also established by him, it can be said that in the military, no one has the power of the old fourteen, and at the same time, the old fourteen has a lot of industries under his name, although most of the shares are given to the treasury, but the economic strength is already the largest among all the elder brothers. If Li Guangdi is thrown into his subordinates, Qian Junzheng has all of them, and I am afraid that there will be no one to balance him.

However, Kangxi looked at Lin Feng's sincere look and hesitated. The old fourteen did not participate in the competition for the crown prince, did he think too much. Forget it, if I can give it, I can take it. Let's see what the purpose of the old fourteen is.

"In charge of the Beijing Daily, Li Guangdi will be in charge. But he is old and sick, and you still need to help. Kangxi thought of Li Guangdi's suggestion that he make the eighth elder brother the crown prince, and he still had doubts in his heart, so he simply found some work for Li Guangdi.

"Xie Huang Ama!" Lin Feng was overjoyed when he heard this. Li Guangdi had just been promoted to a scholar of Wenyuan Pavilion, and if Lin Feng could get him in his hands, his power could rise a lot.

Next, Lin Feng and Kangxi discussed with Kangxi about adding some anecdotes and articles to the Beijing Daily, and adding a few people, Kangxi also understood the benefits of owning the Beijing Daily one-sidedly, so they all agreed one by one.
