Kangxi's recall of Yinfu and Yinren was not because he had any thoughts. In the past few years, he has exiled several sons who have fought for the most fierce position, and everything else is going well, and his life is relatively smooth. It's just that he is Kangxi after all. Although the other dozen or so sons who stayed in the capital were very filial and did not make him angry, the performance of these sons was not so outstanding. He is the emperor, and he likes people who are really capable, and those who need to take over the throne must also be capable. Therefore, when he saw the remaining princes, he could always think of the exiled ones. In addition, he really loves those princes, so naturally he thinks about it more and more. When people are old and the country is still peaceful, they naturally think about home and happiness. Although this kind of thing may not be really realized in the royal family, it is still possible to summon those princes back for a gathering. This is also the reason why he ordered the recall without much fanfare. He just wanted his family to get together, but he didn't want to make those ministers suspicious and make the court unstable.

"Your Majesty, you are here, but I don't know how many people you have to scratch your scalps!" Although Gao Shiqi has been away from Beijing for a few years, he is still well-informed, and with his understanding of Kangxi's "temperament", he has roughly guessed Kangxi's thoughts, but after all, he has been in the position of Zaifu for decades, and although there are few accidents, there are still some accidents. Although Yinchu didn't meet many people when he came back this time, it wasn't a big secret, so someone asked him for an idea. He is not in the court now, but it is not easy to deal with the intentions of some people, so he has to come forward. However, when he heard that the eldest and second were recalled, his heart was settled. If Kangxi really wanted to establish a reserve or had other thoughts, how could he call these two opponents back together? Unless the emperor faints, he thinks the court is too quiet. So although he was surprised, he didn't change his color, but then said to Kangxi with a smile.

"Hmph. I summoned my son to go home for a reunion, and whatever happened to those people, they could think as much as they wanted, and scratch as much as they wanted, so I didn't bother to care. "Anyway, in a month or two, these sons will go back again, and even if those people want to come and go, I'm afraid they won't have time to do anything. Therefore, Kangxi doesn't care either.

"What has been the situation in Jiangnan in recent years? Not bad, right? "Ended the talk about "the prince going home to save his relatives". Kangxi asked Gao Shiqi again.

"It should be good. Mader is very well managed! Gao Shiqi replied. Kangxi asked him this was not unexpected. As a former prime minister, there is still a plaque given by Kangxi at home, and his status in Jiangsu is transcendent. He also has a copy of the monthly imperial court residence newspaper. Coupled with the fact that the local officials deliberately curry favor, he knows not a lot of things. It would be strange if Kangxi didn't ask him about the situation of his place of residence. It must be known that this can show favor to the courtiers, and secondly, it can learn about the actual situation in the local area for free, Kangxi is almost getting used to it.

"Just good? …… That's a good idea, you tell me about it. Kangxi asked again.

"This ......" Gao Shiqi was speechless. Kangxi is clearly beating a dog into a poor alley, so he has to get words out of his mouth. But what could he say? Said that Ma De encouraged agriculture and commerce in Jiangnan?

It is said that the boy saw that the price of rice in Jiangnan was getting lower and lower because of the competition with the grain of Mukden and Luzon, so he encouraged the people to plant other goods. What is it called a cash crop. Did you make a lot of money? Said that the kid had nothing to do every day, and he knew that he sent someone to the sea to throw broken boats and stones, and said that what kind of artificial reef was made to attract fish? said that the kid was building all kinds of technical schools in Jiangnan. Teaching a variety of skills? Or is that kid so afraid of his wife every day that his subordinate officials don't even dare to enter his house, for fear of causing trouble when they see him messing around? These Kangxi should know, so why bother to ask him?

"Your Majesty, this is very good, that is, it is a little better than other places.

Gao Shiqi couldn't find any words after all, so he simply played a scoundrel.

"Better? Hahaha...... Jiangnan should be a little better than other provinces, right? Could it be that Ma De has been the governor for several years, but he has achieved nothing? Kangxi laughed.

"That's nature! Ma De's little credit was all made thanks to the emperor's blessing. That is, the credit for these credits is said to be his. That's his, but if it's not his, does he dare to argue? Gao Shiqi also smiled.

"You'll say! …… What about the officials under Mader? That's good. Kangxi put down a chess piece and asked again. Gao Shiqi was already speaking for Ma De just now. Ma Dedu has worked hard in the three provinces south of the Yangtze River, but the location is also very eye-catching. It's easy to be coveted. Gao Shiqi is actually advising him, although Ma De's status is not low, his power seems to be not small now. But no matter how great the credit is, it can't compare to the fact that a word of the emperor is really useful, and no matter how strong the power is, it can only be at his mercy. Therefore, it is completely okay to ignore the malicious attacks of some people.

"What the emperor said is good, but when he arrives at the place, it is already very rare." Gao Shiqi smiled and followed.

"Oh?" Kangxi asked.

"Anhui and Jiangxi provinces don't know much. However, the ones in Jiangsu are very good. Gao Shiqi said again. Although Kangxi has Wei Dongting and other faction's "spies" in Jiangnan, there will be a large number of secret recitals every month, but since Kangxi asked him, there is no need for him to hide it. didn't have time to upset Kangxi.

“…… Can I be promoted? Kangxi paused with the chess pieces, raised his eyes to look at Gao Shiqi, and then asked.

"No, you can't!" Gao Shiqi replied.

“。” The monarch and the minister have been getting along for many years, and Kangxi doesn't talk nonsense, he understands it anyway.

"Weight is jealous. If the emperor promotes those officials at this time, all the officials will attack Ma Dequn, and at that time, the emperor will inevitably be troubled. The corners of Gao Shiqi's mouth curled slightly and said.

"Just annoying?" Kangxi smiled and asked meaningfully. Gao Shiqi just told him that he didn't need to pay attention to some people's attacks on Ma De, and now he said that those people would annoy him, and it was better not to make trouble, it was simply inconsistent, for fear that others would not know that he was already a little confused. Does he, an old boy, think that the emperor is so good?

"Why doesn't the emperor summon those officials from Ma Debao? I heard that there are also students of Lee Guangdi in there! Gao Shiqi grinned and played Tai Chi with Kangxi. Kangxi was actually asking him just now, in addition to the annoyance that it would be annoying for officials to attack Ma De, he was also asking if it was possible for these officials promoted by Ma De to form a party with Ma De. This is not an easy thing to answer. People can change the earth. Even if those officials do not form a party at this time, who dares to guarantee that they will be in the future? Rice can be eaten "messily". But you can't say it 'nonsense'. However, being in Made's territory, you have to take care of Made's attitude anyway. There are generally no secrets in the palace, and the conversation between him and Kangxi here today may reach Ma Dedi's ears one day, and if he makes Ma De unhappy, it will not be a good thing. Although Ma De is not the kind of person who cares, it is still the same sentence, people will change. Not to mention the officials in the land that Mader protected. I am in Jiangsu. Close, he still knows a little about the abilities of these people. With the ability of these people, even if they are not promoted now, they will definitely be promoted in the future. Therefore, he first let Kangxi make his own decision, and then mentioned Li Guangdi again. Kangxi has always attached great importance to Li Guangdi, and Li Guangdi is also loyal to the imperial court, so this guy's students are naturally guaranteed.

"You old thing, play tricks on me again!" Gao Shiqi's heart Dao, how could Kangxi not be clear. This is a neutral opinion. It's a little bit more biased towards Mader. It's a great way to get a sense of proportion.

Even if something happens in the future, he can definitely not bear half of the responsibility, and by the way, he has been watching him as the minister of the study for many years, and Li Guangdi, who usually has some opponents, has found a little "trouble". It is really "withdrawing", "recommending", and "harming". Just the right clever means.

"Hehe, this is the emperor's leniency, and Weichen is really disrespectful!" Listening to Kangxi's reprimand, which was not angry, Gao Shiqi smiled again. Playing with his heart in front of Kangxi, others are looking for k without discussion, but he is a kind of fun most of the time, and it can often increase Kangxi's trust in him. Of course, the main reason for this is that he has grasped the measure, and the eyes of the play are rarely linked to self-interest, and most of them are just ideas for Kangxi. With Kangxi's high intelligence, he likes this kind of wit-like move. Moreover, he can protect himself by doing so. If Kangxi guessed the original meaning of his words, it was Emperor Shengming, which naturally meant that he slapped his ass in another way; If Kangxi can't guess, if he goes on according to this idea, even if something happens, he can push two or six five...... Even the emperor didn't think of the consequences, so naturally he couldn't do it. Naturally, there is no responsibility at all. If anyone is not satisfied, then go to the emperor and say it!

"......" Kangxi looked at Gao Shiqi and his hippie smiling face, smiled and shook his head. Gao Shiqi was originally like this, and now that he is not in his position, he can't say anything. Actually, he didn't plan to get any ideas from Gao Shiqi. This time, he bypassed the upper study and the six departments to summon Ma De to Beijing for this matter. Now the court is up and down, and the generals are okay to say. After Feiyanggu and Sabusu, there are also Yu Zhong who are good at coordinating the overall situation, and there are a number of young generals such as Yue Zhongqi, Nian Qianyao, Yanxin, and Long Keduo who can fight on the battlefield, and there is no risk of being overwhelmed. But it is not easy for the civilian side to deal with it. Tong Guowei and Ma Qi have begun to enter old age, and although Zhang Tingyu is strong, he has always acted cautiously, and it is difficult to control the overall situation. Yu Chenglong and Lu Longqi have already retired, although there are still Shi Shilun, You Mingtang, Zhang Boxing and others who can be entrusted with important tasks, but after all, there are still too few such people, and they are all Han. In addition, the corruption in the officialdom is too serious now, and he is about to take advantage of the peace of the country and the stability of the court to start rectifying the rule of officials, so he urgently needs a group of young officials who can take up heavy responsibilities and stand the test to take over, especially in the local area. He estimated that Ma De had probably seen this even in the book this time, so he had to call and ask.

By the way, I have to check if this kid has any intentions, if it's not natural, it's best, if it is, then he can't be blamed. …… But then again, compared to Mader, the other governors really made him angry. Those guys only know how to embezzle and take bribes, hide dirt and dirt, cultivate power, consolidate power, and crack down on dissidents, but they don't know how to cultivate more talents for the country. Now, although many people have been nominated from other provinces, compared to those recommended by Ma De, there is almost nothing comparable to "sex" in terms of ability and political performance, which is really annoying.

"By the way, Your Majesty, I heard from Hengchen that Ferdinand's old guy ran back to Mukden again?"

Gao Shiqi didn't know the distress in Kangxi's heart now, and then asked.

"yes!" Kangxi nodded, "I originally planned to let him into the study, so that I could give me ideas at any time." But this old guy not only excused himself, but also said that he wanted to develop something, and ran back to Mukden. Now, Fengtian's Ma Wudu is almost unbearable for him, and he shouts all day long.

It's really annoying to me! ”

"Hehe, Ferdinand is a contemporary person in Gewuzhizhi, except for the emperor, Weichen really doesn't know who can compare with him. It's just that I don't know what he got out again, and he can't even take care of the position of the minister of the study? Gao Shiqi knew that Kangxi was not angry with the old man. Old man Fei doesn't go into the study, but it's actually good for everyone. It is impossible for Kangxi not to know this.

The reason why there is that will is not necessarily a good idea. Old man Fei immediately fled back to Fengtian, probably to avoid trouble.

"I don't know what it is. If the old guy doesn't say it, I can't chase after him...... However, listening to Ma Wu's recital, the old guy was building some iron ships in Dalian, and what rails were made of fine steel, saying that he would pave it from Dalian all the way to Fengtian and then to Ningguta. said that it occupied a lot of land, and a group of princes and nobles in Fengtian also followed with the "chaos", alas, it really gave me a headache! Kangxi smiled bitterly.

"Iron ships?" Gao Shiqi obviously heard this kind of "legend" for the first time, "Your Majesty, that's what Ma Wu's recital says?" He's not mistaken, is he? ”

"I guess there's no mistake. Ma Wu initially impeached Ferdinand for acting recklessly, but now, he no longer dares to say "nonsense". Not long ago, it was said that Ferdinand had built a sand boat made entirely of steel, and that it was not a big deal except that it didn't move. Kangxi smiled.

"Iron can make a ship?" Gao Shiqi shook his head, he always felt that this matter was a little incomprehensible.
