Chapter 445: Death!
Kangxi is dead!
……
Died without warning! Died without a miracle!
Because, Kangxi has not been sick, on the contrary, in the invasion of the European coalition forces, and then the counterattack of the Qing army, until now the Qing court's sailors have been stationed in Port Said in Egypt and Cape Town in South Africa, and the Europeans have been blocked in the Atlantic Ocean from the north and south of Africa, he has always shown great spirit, so many things and so many decisions during the war, the emperor has never left his post, and has always personally dealt with various events. Many of his close ministers even thought that it was the war that made Kangxi excited, and it was the unprecedented exploits of the handle that stimulated the supreme to exert abundant energy.
However, who would have thought that Kangxi would actually return to the West at this time? thinks that his merits have far surpassed that of Emperor Qin, Han Wu, Tang Dynasty and Song Zu, Kangxi is planning to go to Feng Zen Taishan! How many people want to follow him in the hope of leaving a name in history together? But now, all hope has come to naught!
However, when the emperor died, no one would think about any unrealistic name left in history, because everyone knew that if Kangxi was so irresponsible, the Qing Dynasty would face an extremely complex political change.
……
The first to get the news of Kangxi's death were the imperial doctors who had been left in the dormitory for medical treatment, the two imperial concubines, and of course, Li Dequan, who had been taking care of Kangxi, and then the three ministers who were called by Li Dequan to the palace.
Therefore, when the three ministers in charge of the imperial government learned the news in the dormitory, Rao was ready for the worst, but they were still stunned by this terrible situation.
……
At first glance, when they saw the body lying quietly on the dragon collapse, and then heard the news whispered by Li Dequan, the eyes of the three powerful ministers immediately turned red, thinking of Kangxi's kindness to them, they all wanted to cry! But they didn't dare! If Kangxi is fine, those people outside the dormitory can only be regarded as some miscellaneous fish, and they will be sent away with a wave of their hand, but. Now that Kangxi has died, the identities of those people have changed, and they have immediately become tiger wolves, and they are a group of tiger wolves that must not be accused. If you let these tigers and wolves in, I'm afraid the situation will immediately become terrible. So, even if you want to cry, you have to wait until you figure it out!
"It was okay before, how can you be ......" Wailing and sobbing, Tong Guowei saw the imperial doctors who were kneeling on the ground in a blink of an eye. Suddenly, he was furious, stepped in front of the imperial doctor in front of him in two steps, and pinched the thin neck and lifted the person up, "You say." You say, how can this be? What do you royal doctors eat? Did you kill the emperor? ”
Tong Guowei used to be just a small infantry commander, although this official position was already extremely expensive in the eyes of many people. However, compared to his current status, it can only be said that he is a heaven and an underground. For more than 20 years, Kangxi has trusted him, and he will never forget this thoughtful experience. But now Kangxi suddenly left without saying a word, and this grief made Tong Guowei feel unbearable for a while, so he immediately vented this indignation on those imperial doctors who did not treat well.
"Tong Xiang, no! No......, "Ma Qi and Zhang Tingyu were also promoted by Kangxi. Especially Zhang Tingyu, who entered the study as a six-rank petty official, and the acquaintance between him and Kangxi was many times better than that of others. However, although he was sad, he and Ma Qi did not lose their cool, so when they saw Tong Guowei screaming and pinching the neck of the imperial doctor, it seemed that they were about to pinch the poor imperial doctor to death, and the two hurriedly ran over and tried to pull Tong Guowei aside.
"I'm going to kill these quacks and avenge the emperor!" Although he was desperately pulled by Zhang Tingyu and Ma Qi, Tong Guowei was still gritting his teeth.
"Ahem...... Tong Xiang spares his life! This, it's none of our business! Cough! Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he ...... "Seeing Tong Guowei's expression of vowing to kill himself, the face of the imperial doctor who had just snatched back his 'sex' life from the Ghost Gate immediately turned extremely pale. Originally, failing to save Kangxi had already made their group of imperial doctors frightened, and they didn't know if they could get their lives back. Now looking at Tong Guowei, who is the head of the court, the hope of this life immediately tends to be infinitely "nothing"! Frightened, the imperial doctor immediately burst into tears.
"Shut up!" Zhang Tingyu scolded, and then asked, "Your Majesty, what kind of disease does he have?" ”
"Your Majesty...... The emperor is not sick! The poor imperial doctor cautiously glanced up at Tong Guowei, and then suddenly leaned over and whispered: "Three Xiangye, after the emperor fainted, we were immediately summoned for treatment, this Zhang Xiang and Ma Xiang you know." However, we can't find out what happened to the emperor! ”
"Can't find out?" Tong Guowei restrained the anger in his chest, and was stunned when he heard the words, and then, he and Ma Zhang both looked at Concubine Hui and Baori Longmei who were whimpering next to the dragon collapse in surprise.
"Liu Yuduo, you make it clear!" The dormitory suddenly fell silent, although Concubine Hui and Bao Ri Longmei had been crying, but they also heard the conversation between the imperial doctor and Tong Guowei and others just now, Concubine Hui was in the palace all the year round, and the first thing she understood was that Tong Guowei and others were doubting themselves and Bao Ri Longmei. How dare she be charged with this crime? Therefore, she immediately ordered the imperial doctor to explain what the other party said.
"The reason why the emperor fainted is not difficult to investigate, mainly because ......of the blood and blood," Hearing Concubine Hui's order, Imperial Doctor Liu immediately continued.
"What kind of person is the emperor? And he has always been in good health, how can he faint as soon as he attacks his heart? Tong Guowei asked coldly.
"That's the weirdness! Tong Xiang, we have an example of the emperor's leyline in the hospital, and the emperor's body has indeed been very good, but ......" that Imperial Doctor Liu cried with a sad face, shook his head and lay on the ground and sobbed. Before that, Kangxi's physical condition was also very good. But why do you burp all of a sudden? What's especially hateful is, how did this kind of thing happen to him? He could already imagine that as long as he couldn't figure this out, they would probably be the imperial doctors who would not be able to escape death!
……
"What should I do?" Sadness is sadness, but after being sad, the three ministers of the study immediately thought of this problem.
"Two mothers, the emperor ...... him, "Did you leave any edicts?" Tong Guowei wiped his tears and asked Concubine Hui and Baori Longmei, who were sitting on the edge of the dragon couch wiping their tears. No matter how Kangxi died, Kangxi has been waiting by these two imperial concubines since soon after he fell into a coma, and if there are any last words or the like, these two palace concubines must be the first to know.
"Your Majesty...... Woo, one, I haven't woken up! Woo woo woo ......" Concubine Hui whimpered in a low voice. She is a few years older than Kangxi, and she has been married for decades, during which she can be said to be entangled in grievances because of her son's problem, but, no matter what, Kangxi is also her husband, and now she has suddenly returned to the west, and in addition to loss, she is only sad in her heart.
"Sister Hui and I are just a 'woman', the emperor died suddenly, and we don't know what to do, so we asked Li Dequan to invite the three prime ministers in...... What to do, please ask the three masters to watch it themselves! "When Bao Ri Longmei was a teenager, she had already experienced the pain of family ruin. She is from Mongolian, and although she has been in the palace for more than 20 years and nearly 30 years, she still sees these things of life and death less than those of the Central Plains. In addition, she is strong in nature, but she does not act as sad as Concubine Hui, and her speech is quite organized.
"This ......"
Tong Guowei and the three didn't know what to say. They first glanced at each other, then at the two concubines and at Kangxi, who was motionless on the dragon couch, and then turned their heads to look at the imperial doctors who were kneeling on the ground and didn't dare to say a word, only knowing that they were trembling, and their minds turned like a storm and lightning.
……
Kangxi is dead, and it seems that he has not left any edict, at this time, if they can unanimously support a certain prince. Then, this prince is the ironclad next emperor! When the time comes, with the merit of support, they will inevitably have even greater power than they do now! However, they can't ignore a problem, that is, these people in the dormitory now, because they all know that Kangxi did not leave a testament before he died, so if you want to support anyone, you must consider the feelings of these people. And what makes people embarrassed is ...... Concubine Hui and Baori Longmei also have a prince each!
That's a big problem!
Although the son of Concubine Hui, that is, the eldest brother Yinchu, has already gone to North America to operate early, and now he is almost the king of secession, but how can North America, which has just developed a little, be compared with this rich and powerful Qing Kingdom? Especially now that Kangxi has not left an edict saying who will succeed to the throne, in this case, the identity of Emperor Yinchu's eldest son and his exploits in expanding the territory show that he is the most qualified to inherit the throne, and there is also Concubine Hui here. In her early years, this imperial concubine had relied on the power of her brother Mingzhu to seek the crown prince for Yinchu, and now the throne is almost close at hand, how could she not be moved? How could she not want to persuade her son to come back and fight for the throne?
However, Yinchu has a big shortcoming, that is, he is far away in North America, even if he plans to come back to compete for the throne after hearing the news of Kangxi's death, it will be at least half a year later. At that time, I'm afraid everything has already settled. Therefore, the possibility of Yinchu competing for the throne is very small, but the possibility that Concubine Hui is unwilling to mention to the world that the emperor did not leave an edict is more "sexual". However, if the three of them really planned to support a certain prince other than Yinchu, Concubine Hui's mere fact would be enough to cause them a lot of trouble. With the "sexual" personality ability displayed by Kangxi's sons, just such a sentence is enough to provoke a tragic fight, and when the time comes, let alone the end, they themselves are afraid that they will also be swept into the whirlpool of unpredictable results.
And in addition to Concubine Hui, the power of Baori Longmei is even more not to be underestimated! Khalkha Mongolia is the maiden family of this imperial Guiji, and Wendur Khan of Eastern Mongolia is her uncle, in her identity, as long as she has a word, she can become the spokesperson of the entire Mongolian family in Beijing, and she also has several relatives, the eldest sister Mo Qing controls the wealth of the rich country, and the second sister Luo Xin can say that he can move the governor of Jiangnan, Ma De, and then, from this, Jiangnan, Huguang, Fujian and Zhejiang and other provinces can all be pulled into the same boat, and the general Yu Zhong, who is still far away in India, with his strong prestige and strength, It is enough to make Yunnan, Guichuan, Qinghai, Tibet and other places all drawn into her camp! This is the power of most of the Great Qing Kingdom! In addition, the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang has always been favored by Kangxi, and inheriting the throne is enough to make people have nothing to say! However, in the same way, Bao Ri Longmei also has hard injuries. Let's not say that Yinxiang is following Yu COSCO to lead troops in India at this time, just talk about the near. Although the Manchus and Mongolia have always been close, and the court controlled by the Manchus can accept a Mongolian empress dowager or empress, or even the empress dowager, but these people are absolutely impossible to be above them according to the Mongols, so the Mongols can only become a card in the hand of Baori Longmei to deter, but they can't really play it. In addition, there are too many people offended by Yu Zhong, Ma De and others, if Baori Longmei relies on these relatives, I am afraid that a large number of courtiers will be "forced" to the opposite side, even if she can forcibly push the thirteenth elder brother to the throne, I am afraid that in the end, the world will be in trouble! This is the sadness of having great power at the local level but little influence at the central level.
And who else is suitable besides the eldest and the thirteenth? The eighth who has the best relationship with the courtiers is still in Fengtian to see the cannon factory, and there is also the old ten who have been assigned to the past, the old nine who have made great contributions have returned to India, and the old fourteen is with Yinxiang...... In the capital, only the third Yinzhi and the fourth Yinzhen are left, and the rest of the princes are not yet successful.
……
As the thinking deepened, the heads of Tong Guowei and the three began to ooze fine sweat.
There must be someone who comes out to take over the throne, otherwise, the court will inevitably be a mess, plus Kangxi divided the princes into various places, if the new emperor cannot be pushed out in time, the foundation that Kangxi has finally laid down is afraid that it will be torn apart again.
But who is pushing?
……
"There are some things that we can't decide...... "In the face of the huge power temptation", someone finally realized that he was powerless, Zhang Tingyu took a long breath and lightly reminded the two colleagues.
