The two looked at each other, and they were embarrassed on their faces, and they didn't dare to delay for a long time, so they each gave up their hands and left. () Since Ma Qi was guilty, it has been more than three years, think Ma Qi Taifu in the column, just the year of pride, Song Zhu is also only outside the Fengtian general, there are not many contacts in official affairs, there is not much handover in private affairs, just because of the feeling of time and change, the circumstances are different, especially the next day when Song Zhu remembered the abolition of the prince in October, Kangxi reinstated Ma Qi acting chief of the internal affairs office, and then in the month to add grace, to his leader, the clan reinstated, until today is the first time to see, but now I can see Ma Qi's body is blessed, high cheekbones, although he upholds a solemn face, but can not hide the old state to show his full appearance, and his eyes are no longer full of vigor of the day, Song Zhu can not help but sigh in his heart。

When he reached the bottom of the stairs, a eunuch came out to pass the decree and called in, Ma Qi bowed inward, straightened the crown and belt of the court clothes, and followed him in. Seeing the emperor's holy face from afar, tears were about to pour out, and Ma Qi refused to cry because he couldn't afford to lose his manners. In the palace, Li Guangdi was talking back to Kangxi about the Xiyuan Grand Parade in August, he asked for the old things of the prince's kindness of the father and son, and did not pay attention to the people, and when Ma Qi signed up to knock in, he suddenly heard the name of Ma Qi, turned his head in a daze, and saw his colleagues who had not seen him for many years, and his heart was already unstoppably surprised, and he unconsciously stopped talking, and took two steps back to look at Kangxi.

Kangxi also regained his senses from Li Guang's place, and turned to stare at Ma Qi, who was crying on the ground, for a long time before he sighed, "Alas..." The corners of his lips squirmed, but he didn't say anything, only beckoned to Ma Qi. Ma Qi reluctantly endured Qi Qi's intentions, straightened up, lifted the placket of the supplemental clothes, and walked a few steps to the throne, Kangxi glanced at him deeply, and said heavily, "I feel that after all these years, it is not good to be disobedient, alas...... Looking at it now, you're getting old. "Master......" Ma Qi couldn't help it anymore, just looking at Kangxi, two lines of tears flowed straight down from his red eyes, and then he kowtowed heavily on the gold brick floor that could reflect the face of the person, and said in a trembling voice, "The slave is ...... dead."

Ma Qi let out a bloody cry, and even the consultants who were so tired that he was standing on the side couldn't help but think, in the past, some of the kindness letters of relatives and relatives who were close to each other were all false? Li Guangdi, who was standing next to him, felt quite embarrassed at the moment, glanced at Kangxi without a trace, and clearly looked at Kangxi with a little emotion, knowing that it was not very cheap at the moment, and then talking about the things ahead, he was about to bow and withdraw, but he might as well be stopped by Kangxi, "Songzhu is gone, what else do you want to go to in the cabinet at this time?" Li Guangdi didn't want to resign because he didn't want to delay the dilemma of meeting the two of his monarchs and ministers, and it was naturally inconvenient to leave again, but he seemed to have made a good witness at the moment, which made him extremely uncomfortable, so he bowed down silently for a while, which really had a taste of asking for training.

After a long while, Kangxi sat on the throne and smiled casually, but he talked with him casually, "After Gao Jiangcun died, Zhang Ying, Zhang Yushu, and Chen Tingjing were followed all these years...... There are few people who are close to me in the old ministers, and there are few people in the court who like to speculate about my intentions, and I have to use them, but I really don't know, how much of what these ministers who want to do is with a public heart, and how much is the way to advance in the future?"

When he said this, it was Kangxi's consistent temperament, even though Ma Qi had a long-lost feeling and heard some off-string sounds, but after all, he had to be blamed first, and now it seems to be a situation of guilt, how dare he take this stubble. Li Guangdi was shocked by this, he has always been sleek and accidental, and he didn't want to get involved, although he still had a smile on his face, but he was terrified in his heart, and he was busy thinking about it, and he thought about it carefully, and then he thought about it, "The Holy Son of Heaven has a very good understanding of the subtlety, and the ministers are fortunate to serve in front of the king, but they only think about the sacred heart, and this speculation is also common, and I dare not say that it is not...... Only the Holy Lord has a heavy weapon for a long time, and the ministers are also old and unbearable, it is difficult to serve today, and I don't know when to return to the land tomorrow, and the emperor's holy grace is high, and he has been given more grace and compassion, and has been rewarded repeatedly, and the ministers do not think that it is already a sin of death, how can they give birth to such delusions?" Ma Qi was lying on the ground at the moment, but he felt a cold sweat on his back, Li Guangdi seemed to be clear of himself, but in fact, he blamed himself for his words that could not help but make people tremble, but there was no argument at the moment, and he had to settle for the destiny of heaven.

"What you think is just your own opinion, how can you hinder some people from being pampered and arrogant?" Kangxi pursed the corners of his lips, and he didn't think so, the emperor didn't mean it, and others naturally couldn't guess it, but when Kangxi spoke, his eyes seemed to inadvertently sweep over Ma Qi, Li Guangdi stood on one side, but secretly took this scene in his eyes, feeling that the emperor must be beating Ma Qi, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and said with a smile, "The minister is dull, not as far-sighted as the emperor." Kangxi glanced at Li Guangdi meaningfully, but smiled, "I am not far-sighted, but I can see it all." ”

I heard the same words, but each had a taste in my heart. Kangxi and Li Guangdi came and went, and although Ma Qi knelt down and didn't speak at the moment, when he calmed down and listened, he felt a little strange, didn't he mean to beat Li Guangdi by himself? Ma Qi looked up in a frightening manner, but felt that Kangxi was full of spring breeze, and he didn't know if he should be guilty for a while, he hadn't played in front of Jun for a long time, he had lost his experience, and he had lost his agility, so he only remembered the rules of replying, and couldn't help blurting out, "The slave doesn't know." ”

This was inevitably out of order, Li Guangdi also looked at Ma Qi in surprise, but as soon as the words came out, Ma Qi felt that it was inappropriate, and he wanted to explain again, Kangxi just waved his hand, "You are all old people who have been with me for a long time, and you don't say some things, and you all know it." In recent days, I can always remember the events of the past, and as I used to say, I and you ministers will not be able to be a model in the history books in the future, and they will always be in vain in this period of monarchy and ministers. ”

Kangxi got up on the throne, stretched out his hand and put Ma Qi on the shoulder, it was a kissing action, Ma Qi looked at Kangxi flattered, his eyes were still red, and he listened to Kangxi hurt himself, "Cao Yin on weaving, you have seen, he is four years younger than me, and he died at only fifty-five...... When I received Li Xu's excerpt, I only felt that there was no holiday for a day, and Li Xu played to me to be a messenger on the salt road for him for another year, and I only warned him that "if you change your mind in the future, it is only for yourself, that is, dogs and horses are not as good". I think I am a master who misses the old, although he is a person under the Ministry of Internal Affairs, and he is not as good as you ministers, but I will never forget his loyalty to serve me all my life. ”

For a while, the two people who followed behind Kangxi both knelt on the ground, for the sake of their respective identities, Li Guangdi consciously gave way, and Ma Qi was the first to knock and said, "How dare a slave inherit such a thing ......as a master?" The slave doesn't have the face to play anything anymore, he is only willing to say this heart, the master's words, the slave can't stand it......"

Ma Qi's panicked and sad appearance naturally made Li Guangdi feel related, because he didn't know how Kangxi would treat Ma Qi with all his affection, so he was inconvenient to speak, but he glanced at Ma Qi with a lot of sympathy. Unexpectedly, Kangxi was finally faint, just listening to Ma Qi's words, he still just waved his hand, Ma Qi's eyes darkened, he already knew that he couldn't do anything, and he had to hide the bitter water in his heart, so he barely kowtowed, and heard Kangxi say, "I am old now, and I often feel that my mental strength is very poor, although I dare not be tired in political affairs, I will no longer be as diligent as when I was young, and I can just open my eyes and close my eyes to many things." Qualifications are not in the teeth, like Zhao Shenqiao, Song Zhu these newcomers, they are a little irritable, they are not as calm as you, they have more experience, don't care about those famous positions in the future, carefully help them, and they can be regarded as doing their best for me. ”

Even if it is a gentle drizzle, it is like a thunderbolt in the Qingxi Book House, not to mention that this has a deep meaning, Ma Qi naturally does not dare to persuade him with his past identity, Li Guangdi thinks that he is more than a fortunate minister, but he does not dare to be smart and make a side up at this time, this can be regarded by Kangxi as a close minister of the head of the Manchu and Han classes, how can there be any other words besides what it should be? Later, when Kangxi was in a better mood, he listened to the two of them talk about some articles and ancient records, but at this time, the east wind rose again, reflecting the murmuring of the water in the imperial garden outside the window, and the two of them couldn't help but feel worried in their hearts.
