Chapter 194: Wind and Thunder (1)

In August of the forty-first year of Kangxi, Emperor Kangxi toured the south again, and the crown prince Yinren, the fourth son of the emperor Yinzhen, and the thirteenth son of the emperor Yinxiang were ordered to follow the order, all the way to inspect the situation of the river workers and the people. Reading the book//** all the way down the river, I happened to see that under Zhang Pengxi's rule, the floods were gradually decreasing, and the autumn was refreshing, and the father and son often sang poems and songs on the royal boat. Interested, Kangxi announced that Gao Shiqi, who had already been to Shi, accompanied by Zhang Ying, and recruited Jiangnan weaving Cao Yin from Jiangning's will. Yinzhen and Yinxiang are both happy, thinking about this way, they have to fill in the words correctly on the topic of Kangxi every day, where is an easy errand? If it is done well, Kangxi is only a little bit, if it is not good, it will inevitably be a scolding. Now that there are three more people, it can be much more relaxed. However, the crown prince Yinren didn't like it, Gao Shiqi was not on good terms with Suo Etu on his face, and he was still a saint after he became a servant, and he saw this person wandering around in front of him, like eating a fly.

On this day, Kangxi lived in Dezhou, and Shandong Governor Ahsan and Dezhou Governor Chen Pengnian led everyone to the palace. Because of the proximity of the palace, the mountain and the water, it is very elegant, and the place prepared for Kangxi is also imitated Chengde's **, pacing into it, listening to the pine waves, or occasionally hearing the birdsong, Kangxi suddenly felt relaxed and happy, and then smiled and said to Ashan: "You are an old person who I use, I really understand my thoughts, this place is simple but not extravagant, and your errand is good." Ah Shan hurriedly smiled and took two steps forward, half-bowed and said, "Thank you for the master's praise, the slave should serve himself." Only the slaves have been running for the river work recently, although the choice of this place is the master of the minions' courage, but in the details it is still the financing of the Chen Governor's Mansion. Reading the book//"Kangxi also beckoned Chen Pengnian to his side, spoke very kindly, and said: "You are a Jinshi of Kangxi for 30 years? I remember you two years ago, you have done a good job, you have used allusions well, and your official reputation is also good." Chen Pengnian never thought that Kangxi would notice a four-grade Huangtang among thousands of officials, and he was immediately excited, deeply moved, and said: "The minister is a small member, but he has to be cared about by the saint, and the minister really doesn't dare to be it." Seeing his red face, Kangxi said with a smile: "You and the others are all people who guard the pastoral side for me, and the livelihood of hundreds of millions of people depends on you, how can I not care?"

Yinxiang was behind him, seeing that Chen Pengnian was sweating on his neck, he couldn't help but sigh, he was seen by Yinzhen, and secretly dragged a handful of it beside him, Yinxiang hurriedly smiled, coughed lightly, and then covered it up. The prince's face was neither happy nor angry, but he didn't know what to think again.

Kangxi saw that Chen Pengnian was a little more restrained, so he casually asked: "How is the people's livelihood in the land of Texas?" Chen Pengnian hesitated, glanced at Ah Shan, and said: "In terms of sainthood, Dezhou is a water and land thoroughfare, although it is not richer than Suzhou and Hangzhou, but the fish and salt city is more prosperous, and it is still abundant, but ......" paused slightly, still mustered up the courage, and lowered his hand and said: "Because of the ...... In the matter of welcoming the car, the consumption of land has increased greatly since this year, and the counties and townships have also apportioned, which may be a bit heavier for the livelihood of the people. Hearing the words "Di Ding consumes envy", Ah Shan's eyelids jumped, Kangxi showed approval at the beginning, but then he frowned, and asked Ah Shan instead: "Is this the case?" Ah Shan glanced at Kangxi's expression, although he hated to kick Chen Pengnian to death, but he was also awe-inspiring in his heart, and hurriedly replied: "How dare the slave disobey the master's will to drive and do things in a disorderly manner." The minions of the southern tour are indeed devoted to the matter, how dare they be slack? The lack of silver taels, there are donations from salt merchants and gentry, and there are also those who make the officials deduct their money to make up for it, and this additional land is consumed, uh, the minions dare not hide it, it is a few points, and it is indeed used on the river work. Ah Shan thought about it, and he already had a rhetoric, and immediately said eloquently: "The two canals in Dezhou, and the proximity to Gyeonggi, are flooded all year round, all because the waterways are steep, and the embankments are not wide enough or high enough. However, the width and height of the embankment are customized, and if it depends on the appropriation of the Ministry of Industry and the river yamen to repair, it must be customized according to the custom, and it is difficult to be stable for a long time. The servants consulted the provinces and provinces, and summoned the squires of the province, all of whom said that they were willing to add the envy of the envy to the additional funds for repairing the embankment, and it was by no means arbitrary, and they also asked the master to learn from it. ”

Seeing that Kangxi was silent, the prince said on the side: "Emperor Ama also said just now, Ahsan is Ama Yong's old courtier, and the retainer asserts that he will not deceive the lord." Moreover, the establishment of the Erchen Guanxing Palace is properly established, and it is not a matter of luxury. Coming all the way, the river workers and the governance seen are more good than the previous years, isn't Ah Shan in harmony with the emperor's love for the people?" He went straight forward, Chen Pengnian had to sigh in his heart, and followed at the end.

Entering the house, Kangxi slowly looked around, circle chairs and books, all simple paragraphs, but the ancient meaning of vertical and horizontal, even to the mind, and then go to the inside of the box, lying horizontally on a couch, the couch has a layer of carving, the couch has been paved with bright yellow satin mattress, into the desire to look at the carved pattern, but there is a dirty trace on the satin mattress, the color is blue at the moment, and said: "Ah Shan, you should be a good errand!" Ah Shan heard that the emperor's voice was wrong, and he came over to take a look, and was so shocked that he knelt on the ground at the moment, and kept saying: "The slave should die." ”

When the prince approached, he felt a burst of happiness in his heart, but his face was also frowned, and he said: "You are with the side of Emperor Ama, no matter how busy you are, this kind of thing should be ordered as soon as possible." Now this is a sin of 'great disrespect', and you have taken over a few times, why are you so unconscious? Let me say what is good about you?" Although Kangxi was extremely angry, he heard that there was something in the prince's words, and then looked at Ah Shan as if he was wronged, and reprimanded: "If you have anything to say, just say it! I have wronged you?" Seeing Ah Shan kowtowing more than once, his face was full of fear and fear: "If you go back to the master, the matter of the palace system is the head of the slave, but the details of the use of these utensils, the slave has already explained to the Chen Governor's Mansion. The slave did not dare to cry out for injustice, and the slave was indeed guilty of dereliction of duty and negligence, so he begged the master to punish him heavily. "Hmm?" Kangxi heard this, hesitated slightly, and the cold color in his eyes became even worse, and he no longer paid attention to Ah Shan at the moment, and only said solemnly: "Chen Pengnian, you come closer." When Kangxi's sharp eyes swept over, Chen Pengnian had already crossed the crowd and prostrated himself in front. Chen Pengnian complained bitterly in his heart, although he didn't know what was going on, but he listened to the words and words that were all his own affairs, and he was shocked at the moment, kneeling in front of Kangxi, staring at the bluestone ground and not daring to raise his head, he couldn't argue a sentence during the period: "Minister, minister......." ”
