Chapter Ninety-Nine: Kang Mazi, You're Too Bad, You Have to Punish You for Employing People! (Ask for a subscription, ask for a monthly pass)
"Your Majesty, do you have something important?"
Wang Zhongxiao wore a yellow coat, bowed down and followed behind Kangxi, walking by the water of Taiye Pool. Xiao Guizi's father-in-law deliberately led a group of eunuchs and palace maids who were waiting far behind.
This clearly leaves room for whispers between monarchs and ministers.
Today's meeting of the "South Study to Suppress the President" has ended, but Wang Zhongxiao was left in the hall by Kangxi, and he is "working overtime to accompany the emperor for a walk".
Hearing what Wang Zhongxiao said, Kangxi sighed softly, and seemed to be a little uneasy: "Big head, I do have something to say to you alone." β
"If the emperor has anything, just give orders."
Kangxi nodded and said, "Big head, do you know why I asked you to accompany Suo Etu to Jiangnan this time?" β
Of course, Wang Zhongxiao knew what Xiao Mazi wanted him to do, but he still asked in a tentative tone: "Your Majesty, do you want the slave to quietly cook that third prince Zhu?" β
The Qing Dynasty has always been both a bitch and a memorial arch in the treatment of Chongzhen's heirs.
Killing is definitely going to kill!
But he can't kill openly, he always kills in the name of "pseudo-prince" and "pseudo-third prince Zhu"!
And this third prince Zhu who appears in Jiangnan now is likely to be true. Since this Third Prince Zhu is real, it can't be kept, it must be eradicated! But it is also impossible to kill openly, and it is not even possible to kill in the name of "pseudo-Zhu San".
Kangxi stopped at this time and looked back at Wang Zhongxiao: "Big head, how are you going to take care of this third prince Zhu?" β
"Minions prepare." Wang Zhongxiao peeked at Kangxi's face while secretly speculating about the holy will, "How about giving him an illness?" β
The third prince of Zhu that Wang Zhongxiao is going to do this time is Wu Sangui's son-in-law, of course Wang Zhongxiao knows that it is fake, but Kangxi may have taken it seriously. So he shouldn't want to make a big fuss, if he wants to make a big fuss, then Wu Sangui won't have a righteous reputation?
If everyone in the world knows that Wu Sangui married his daughter to Zhu Sanzi, even if Zhu Sangui's daughter and Wu Sangui's daughter are dead, Wu Sangui can still find a little kid and say that it is Zhu Sangui's grandson!
So it's best to die quietly!
Since you want to die quietly, don't do any three-class trials, and don't make too much noise.
"The death of the whole family due to illness is considered a good death!" Kangxi nodded and said, "Emperor Chongzhen is under Jiuquan, which is enough to be gratified." β
The daughter of Wu Sangui of the whole family is also going to die? You're ruthless!
"The emperor is really benevolent!" Wang Zhongxiao still has to praise Kangxi.
Kangxi smiled: "But it's not appropriate for you to do this decent job to help Third Prince Zhu do it alone." β
"Then who does the emperor want to come with the minions?" Wang Zhongxiao pondered while asking: You pockmarked son is very bad, this is to ask me to kill Wu Sangui's son-in-law and daughter to vote for the name, and I am not too little to vote for the name alone, and I want other unlucky people to do it together!
Kangxi said: "Shi Lang. I want Shi Lang to do it! I have been thinking about it again and again these days, and I feel that Shi Lang is a talent, and I still have to give him a chance to accept the name. If he helps me bury the family of the third prince of Zhenzhu in the scenery, I will let him help you Ama train together. If he tries to let go of Third Prince Zhu, then you take him down, and then you will help Third Prince Zhu be decent by yourself. I'll give you a secret decree to take him!" β
Wang Zhongxiao thought to himself: It's too ruthless. Others are murderous and punishable, but this Kangxi is employing people and punishing them!
Although he thought so in his heart, he said: "The emperor is really a benevolent monarch, and the slave believes that Shi Lang will definitely seize this opportunity to accept the name." β
Kangxi nodded: "It's best for him to catch him who understands the water army, I lack such a talent in the Qing Dynasty." β
I see!
Wang Zhongxiao had already realized the holy will at this time. Daniel Zhang and Zhao Liangdong can be killed, and the slaves who fight the land war are not worth much, but Shi Lang, the water army, must be kept as much as possible!
This thing. It's not easy to do!
Forbidden City, Qianqing Palace, South Study.
Emperor Kangxi, who came back from a walk by the sea with Wang Zhongxiao, was looking down at the excerpts, when the footsteps suddenly sounded, and then the voice of the little child Cao Yin: "Slave Cao Yin respectfully invites Saint Ann." β
"I'm bowing," Kangxi looked up at Cao Yin's baby face and said with a smile, "Xiao Yinzi, do you want you Amma?" β
"Yes," Cao Yin said with a smile, "but it is more important to serve the emperor!" β
Kangxi smiled and said to Cao Yin: "Xiao Yinzi, you should go to Jiangnan. You Ama was woven in Jiangning in the second year of Kangxi, and it has been seven or eight years in the blink of an eye! If you don't see a son again, I'm afraid you'll forget what your Amma looks like, right? β
"Your Majesty, minion," Cao Yin thought about it seriously, "It seems that he has forgotten a little." β
Kangxi smiled: "Then go once, this dynasty rules the world with filial piety, and you also have to be loyal and filial!" And I heard that there are many delicious and fun things in Jiangnan, so you should go and take a look for me, see if there are any good ones, and buy some back. β
"Okay, Your Majesty," Cao Yin said with a smile, "Then the minion, let's go to Jiangnan!" β
Kangxi said again: "Isn't Wang Datou going south with Jie Shu on an errand after a while?" You might as well discuss it with him, and take you as an attachΓ© and a big guy to Jiangnan together. Your Amak is Jiangning Weaving, and he will help arrange the reception, and you will be comfortable all the way. β
"Okay, good," Cao Yin nodded, "The slave will go back and talk to Wang Datou." β
Kangxi said: "Don't tell the big head that this is what I mean, just say that you want Amma." β
"What?" Cao Yin was stunned.
Kangxi had already put away his smile and lowered his voice: "Xiao Yinzi, I still have an errand to hand over to you." When you followed Wang Datou south, by the way, you stared at Wang Datou for me! β
"Staring, staring at Wang Datou?" Cao Yin was stunned again, "Could it be that the emperor can't trust him?" β
Kangxi said: "It's not that I can't believe him, but I can't do without the heart of guarding against others. And what is the nickname of Wang Shikai and his assistant ministers of the king of Amma? β
"It's Xiao Lu Bu and Living Lu Bu."
Kangxi nodded and said with a smile: "I also know that Lu Bu is a loyal martyr of the Han Dynasty, but he is also a slave with the third surname!" And after all, the father and son have been in Yunnan for many years! According to the report of Li Tianyu, the governor of Yunnan, Wang Fuchen had a good relationship with Wu Yingqi and Wu Guogui. And Wang Zhongxiao, Wu Shicong, and Wu Shijue also worshipped the handle. I can't be wary of some? β
"Emperor Shengming," Cao Yin listened to Kangxi's words, "and immediately expressed his support." β
Kangxi smiled and said, "And I let you keep an eye on Wang Shikai so that you can reuse him in the future!" Xiao Yinzi, you are my milk brother, I have absolute trust in you, you will follow Wang Shikai in the future, be my eyes and ears, and let me rest assured that Wang Fuchen, Wang Datou father and son can be used? β
Cao Yin suddenly realized, and hurriedly said to Kangxi: "Please rest assured, the slave will definitely keep an eye on Wang Datou for the emperor, if he has a heart for the emperor, the slave will never let him go!" β
Kangxi smiled with satisfaction: "Xiao Yinzi, then do you know how Wang Datou can be regarded as having a second heart?" β
Cao Yin said: "The slave knows. If he dares to be corrupt and pervert the law, he will have a bad heart! β
Kangxi laughed.
Cao Yin was confused and looked at Kangxi, "Your Majesty, is the slave wrong?" β
Kangxi shook his head and said, "What I want to use is the courage of Wang Fuchen and Wang Datou!" The two of them are warriors comparable to Aobai, as long as they are loyal to me, it is nothing to be greedy. Wang Fuchen sharpened his head and wanted to go to Guangdong to be the governor, and Wang Datou was bent on going to Jiangnan to catch Zhu San, wasn't it all to make more money? If they are not corrupt and pervert the law, how can they make money? But as long as their father and son are loyal to me, it is not too much to pick up, and I don't care. β
"Then the emperor" Cao Yin is still young, and he doesn't understand the truth of these adults, so he is a little confused, "How can this king be disloyal to the emperor?" β
"If he dares to secretly let the third prince of Zhu who married Wu Sangui's daughter a way out, then he will be disloyal to me!" Kangxi said calmly, "I ordered him to force Shi Lang to help that third prince of Zhu be decent. If he had been my loyal servant, this would have been done properly! You have to keep an eye on me, if that third prince Zhu lets people drop his bag or runs away from Shi Lang and Wang Datou, you will immediately report to Prince Kang! β
"Minion Command!" Cao Yin said in his heart while receiving the order: Wang Datou, Wang Datou, don't be confused, otherwise you and your father will die!
When the little emperor Kangxi was about to send a child (Cao Yin) to Wang Zhongxiao's side as his eyes and ears, Wang Zhongxiao was squeezing together with his father Wang Fuchen, crowded into a newly bought carriage, rumbling through the uneven roads in Beijing, and headed for Xizhimen.
After the two fathers and sons came out of the Forbidden City, they did not go back to their homes in Big Tofu Lane, but went to Zhuangzi outside the city.
Just when Wang Zhongxiao accompanied Emperor Kangxi for a walk in "Haizili", Wang Fuchen, who was waiting for his son outside Dong'an Gate, had already sent three personal soldiers to take his name to ask Kong Sizhen, Shang Zhixin, and Geng Jingzhong to eat in their own Yuyuantan Zhuangzi.
Of course, while eating, we discussed how to form a mutual insurance alliance between Guangxi and Fujian, and then became the final minister together
"Dad, it seems that the little emperor is determined to do it with King Pingxi. Two years at most, and the world will be in chaos! You must rebel this time, don't mess up again! β
When the carriage drove out of Xizhimen, Wang Zhongxiao, who had been gossiping about it without a ride, suddenly made the rebellion clear with the capricious unfilial father.
"What do you say?"
Wang Fuchen hurriedly lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out, and found that he had already left the city, and there were no pedestrians around the carriage, only Wang An was riding a horse to protect him, and it was Wang Quan who was driving the car. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief, and then lowered his voice and said to his son, "Who told you that I was going to rebel?" I am now an important minister of the court, and I am a very human minister, what am I against?
Besides, what does it mean to reinvent the smash? I have been a thief, but I am all coerced, I was forced to follow my godfather to rebel, and I have never led a rebellion myself. If I could call the shots, it would have worked! β
Wang Zhongxiao smiled: "Dad, don't think it's easy to rebel. I think I really want to replace you, maybe it's better to be a grandfather! β
"How is that possible?"
Wang Fuchen touched his beard and looked proud, "Second brother, your father and I have written books and said "Twenty-four Laws of Spear and Cavalry Assault", do you know?" This is a military book, a military book that can be passed down to the world. I think that although my "Twenty-four Methods of Spear and Cavalry Assault" does not have many words, it is not worse than Qi Shaobao's military book in terms of use! β
Not to mention, this Wang Fuchen is quite confident, if he doesn't have this confidence, how can he be buried as a marquis in history.
"Dad, although your "Twenty-Four Methods of Spear Assault" still has a lot to improve, it is not bad. However, it is still a bit difficult to succeed in the rebellion by relying on this alone" Wang Zhongxiao has already read Wang Fuchen's works, and he is also quite pleased with this father's progress, but he still wants to pour a basin of cold water on Wang Fuchen!
"Isn't that enough?" Wang Fuchen was a little proud and complacent, "The emperor has already promised me to be the governor of Liangguang, and he also ordered me to help him train the new army of the three towns first, hehe, train the new army!" β
Looking at him like this, he really wants to be "President Wang"!
However, Kangxi is not Guangxu and Xuantong. It is not easy to train the soldiers under his nose to become a Wang Jiajun who "eats Wang Datou's rice and wears Wang Datou's clothes"!
"Dad," Wang Zhongxiao crossed his arms and pondered, "If the emperor asks us to go to Guangdong to train our troops, the new army that will be trained will of course be our soldiers." But the little emperor is not so stupid, he asked us to practice in Zhili under the emperor's nose, can you blatantly train private soldiers? β
"This." Wang Fuchen thought about it, patted his chest and said, "I have a henchman!" In addition to the 'benevolence, righteousness, virtuousness, safety, and integrity', I also have dozens of personal soldiers, as well as your Second Uncle Shao, Third Uncle Cai, Fourth Uncle Bai, Fifth Uncle Li, Seventh Uncle Gong, and Eighth Uncle Huang, all of whom are your father's brothers who have died! I went back to the last fold and transferred them all to be the chief soldier and deputy general, so I can always control the troops, right? β
"Where can we control the new army of the Three Towns?" Wang Zhongxiao shook his head, "Ten thousand people in one town. If you can give our people control one town, the new army will reach the sky, and how can you get two more towns? β
"And two more towns." Wang Fuchen spread his hands, "What should you do?" Cold! β
"This is just a military attachΓ©," Wang Zhongxiao said again, "Wenchen, do you have it?" In addition to Master Yu and Master Zhou (Zhou Peigong), do we still have talents who can govern the local area? β
"Yes, there is your sixth uncle," Wang Fuchen said, "he is now an official in Gansu." β
"That's only three people!" Wang Zhongxiao snorted, "There are more people in my aunt than you!" Dad, I think you're doing the opposite, I'm afraid it's not as good as my godfather! β
Wang Fuchen glared, "Then can't I not do it?" β
"No way!" Wang Zhongxiao still shook his head, "If you don't oppose it, will the people in Pingnan Wangfu oppose it?" Are the people of the Guangxi General's Mansion against it? Are the water and land admirals of Guangxi and Guangdong opposed? And the general soldiers and deputy generals who are stationed in various places in the two Guangzhous are not against it? Are your own pacesetters against it? Are the gentry and common people in Liangguang and Fujian against it?
They didn't know that Ao Bai was gone! They also felt that Ao Bai would help King Pingxi to conquer the world. When the time comes, they will all rebel, if you don't rebel, will you really be a martyr to the Qing Dynasty? β
When Wang Fuchen heard his son say this, he was immediately dumbfounded.
Wang Zhongxiao is right, now there are only seven people in the whole world who know that Aobai has turned to ashes. In the officialdom of the Qing Dynasty, all the "deaf and clear-sighted" officials thought that Ao Bai had taken refuge in Wu Sangui, and they wanted to help Wu Sangui fight against the Qing Dynasty together.
With Aobai's help, the winning side of Wu Sangui's rebellion is too big, even if it can't sweep the world, half of the country, Southern Wu and Northern Qing, isn't it easy?
For the vassal kings and warlords of Liangguang and Fujian, Wu Sangui was worth following them. Let Wu Sangui be in front, they are divided between Liangguang and Fujian, isn't it better than being a slave to the Manchurians?
Therefore, as long as Wu Sangui is opposed, most of the military leaders of Liangguang and Fujian will follow suit, and what is even more terrifying is that because the Qing Dynasty has been banning the sea in Guangdong and Fujian over the years, it has made the people angry and resentful, and the people's hearts have been lost.
At that time, even if Wang Fuchen does not oppose it, Kong Sizhen does not oppose it, Shang Zhixin and Geng Jingzhong do not oppose it, what is the use? If the people below don't follow, they can't be loyal ministers, at most they should be loyal martyrs.
But the problem is that Wang Fuchen knows the truth, and he knows that Wu Sangui has no Aobai in his hands at all, and Aobai has long been turned into ashes.
Although Wu Sangui has been preparing for a rebellion for many years, he has no Ao Bai in hand. I always feel that this "anti" may still be messed up.
But Wang Fuchen will soon be the governor of Liangguang, Wu Sangui is really going to rebel, and the people around him have followed, can he not follow?
Thinking of this, Wang Fuchen looked at his son and looked a little entangled, "Second child, you have a point, this seems to be really not easy to make!" No, it doesn't seem to work. You give your father a summary, see how our family can make this rebellion well, how can we create a prince, right? β
How can a prince be enough? Wang Zhongxiao said: At least I have to add another emperor or president to be me!
After setting up a great ambition in his heart, Wang Zhongxiao said to Wang Fuchen: "Dad, rebellion, it is not enough to have soldiers alone. There has to be ism! β
"What's there?" Wang Fuchen was stunned.
"Ism!" Wang Zhongxiao Zhengse said, "It is the avenue that can encourage thousands of people to throw their heads and spill their blood, and the way to realize this avenue!" β
"Ah" Wang Fuchen still looked confused.
Wang Zhongxiao glanced at this father, who didn't even understand the doctrine of rebellion, shook his head and said: "Dad, how can you say that you have followed the old man of Chuang Wang, why don't you even understand doctrine?" King Chuang's set of Juntian exemption is doctrine! β
"Ah, really?" Wang Fuchen said, "But didn't King Chuang succeed?" β
"That's better than you!" Wang Zhongxiao didn't wait for his father to turn his face, so he continued to talk to himself, "He didn't succeed, let's add it if the doctrine is not enough!" β
"Add what?"
"Drive out the Tartars!" Wang Zhongxiao said, "Drive out the Tartars, and exempt Juntian from taxation. Add another world for the public! That's enough! β
"Enough?" Wang Fuchen frowned bitterly, "But what are you going to do?" β
"Hehe," Wang Zhongxiao smiled, "I have a way!" Dad, you listen to me, you're right! β
