Prince of the Qing Dynasty

When Kangxi came to greet Empress Dowager Renxian, Empress Dowager Renxian smiled and talked about Yinfeng's wedding.

"The four princes are all married, so it's time to think about the prince's wedding now, right?"

Empress Dowager Renxian said with a smile, "The crown prince is nineteen now. I heard that the emperor has already appointed him a candidate for Fujin. If you count it like this, the girl in that family is also nineteen. I'm afraid it's not easy to delay at this age." Now, when does the emperor plan to let the prince get married?"

Kangxi didn't answer but smiled and said, "Did the prince come to look for the queen mother?"

Empress Dowager Renxian also laughed, she didn't deny Kangxi's words, she just smiled and said, "What does your majesty think about this?"

Kangxi pondered for a moment, then smiled and said: "Since the queen mother has said everything, I naturally listen to the queen mother. In fact, I have been thinking about the prince's wedding these days. Now that the queen mother has opened her mouth, let's settle down. The prince's big wedding is naturally different from the big weddings of the elder brothers, and the Ministry of Rites should make good preparations, so let's order it now, and the time will be set in two years, and then let the Ministry of Rites find an auspicious day and time."

"Two years later?" Empress Dowager Renxian said, "Is the time set by the emperor too late? Does it really take so long to prepare?"

Kangxi said with a smile: "Don't worry, Queen Mother, I have my own measure. For the crown prince, it is just right for the crown prince to set this matter in two years' time."

The reason why Kangxi set the date of Yinreng's wedding in two years is because the crown prince's wedding really needs time to prepare, and Kangxi hopes to give the Ministry of Rites enough time to prepare, so that everything can be properly prepared for the wedding The second is because Yinfeng mentioned to him that after he was in the Hanlin Academy and the Lifan Academy, he would rotate all six departments. Now he has reached the Ministry of War, and the rest are the Ministry of Punishment and the Ministry of Industry.

According to Yinreng's time, he wandered around in a departmental office for one year, and Yinreng would end sitting in court in two years.Kangxi remembered what Yinreng said, after sitting in court to watch politics, he would no longer go in and out of the court, but to continue to study and practice calligraphy. Kangxi thought that it would be the most suitable time for Yinreng to get married at that time.

However, there is no need to explain this reason to the empress dowager.

After all, Yinreng's Fujin is going to be canonized as the crown princess, and it's not good for Yinreng to be outside all the time.The experience of the past few years is enough for the crown prince.Once there is a crown princess, he should stay in the inner court. Even if he wants to go out of the palace, it should be Kangxi who takes him with him.

After returning to Qianqing Palace, Kangxi leaned on the couch alone, meditating silently.

Kangxi had to admit that the delay of Yinreng's big wedding, which should have been married two years ago, was because deep down in his heart, he began to have a little precaution against Yinreng, even though Yinreng was still his last love. My beloved son, however, he is also a wise, kind and fledgling crown prince.

As an emperor, he had to guard against the crown prince, his own son.After getting married, there will be a Crown Princess in Yuqing Palace. Once the Crown Princess gives birth to a son, it will be his direct grandson. This shows that the Crown Prince will also have successors. Kangxi has some ideas about this.His inner thoughts at this moment are also extremely complicated.

He couldn't help but think of the words he said to Yinfeng back then, the one I rely on is heaven, and the one I trust is the crown prince.

Kangxi couldn't help sighing when he thought of Yinreng when he was a child, but in fact, Yinreng has not changed.From childhood to adulthood, Yinreng treated him with sincerity and filial piety.Even though he has been in and out of the yamen of the Outer Court over the years, he came to him every day after the end to report on his daily actions. No matter who he changed, Kangxi knew that this was very difficult to do.

Yinfeng treated him honestly and without any second thoughts, but he had to guard against Yinfeng.It's just because there is a Suo'etu beside Yinrong.

This Suo'etu pressed him every step of the way, in order not to disturb Chao Gang, he tolerated and tolerated time and time again, so much so that he even felt a little bit dissatisfied with Yinfeng.But Kangxi knew clearly that Suo'etu was the culprit who caused such a rift between him and Yinfeng.

However, he thought that Suo'etu had helped him get rid of Oboi, he had the credit for signing the Nerchinsk Treaty, and he had been a minister for many years, he had worked so hard, he couldn't bear to criticize Suo'etu harshly.And Suo'etu is the son of Sony and the uncle of the Hesheli family, so he couldn't bear to take Suo'etu's life.

Kangxi silently thought, if one day Yinreng is strong enough to be alone and does not need Suo'etu's wrong help, then at that time, he may be able to dispose of Suo'etu, right?

Kangxi rubbed his chin, thinking, if he wants to go out of Beijing in the future, he should not leave Suo'etu and Yinfeng alone in Beijing, he will always take one with him.

Immediately after it was decided that Yinfeng would marry Kangxi in the 34th year, Kangxi issued another decree.

He decided to add [-] command arrows to the commander of the infantry to prepare for deployment at any time and to publicize orders.This marks the expansion of the authority of the infantry commander.The infantry commanded the public security of the inner city of the capital, supervised the affairs of the nine gates, and ordered them to also manage the outer city.

Kangxi's edict: There must be a special responsibility for the internal and external governance of the capital, so that it can inspect traitors and eliminate thieves, so that the merchants can be at peace.As a result, the Third Patrol Battalion outside the city, which was originally under the supervision and arrest jurisdiction of the Ministry of War, began to be managed by the infantry commander.The authority of the commander of the infantry has been further expanded, and he will be fully responsible for the security work inside and outside the capital. All banners, people, etc., including the kings, are all under his strict control.When Kangxi went on patrol, the commander of the infantry not only sent people to follow and defend, but also increased defenses inside and outside the capital, and strengthened patrols until Kangxi returned to Beijing.

In this way, everyone in the court knows that there is no deputy under the command of the infantry, and one person can make decisions in case of problems, and the term of office is long. He is the most powerful person around the emperor.

The first infantry commander was concurrently held by Sonohe of the Ministry of War.

When Yinreng heard the news, he was hugging Weiyi and poking her cheek. Of course, the news was passed to him by Suo'etu.

In the letter, Suo'etu emphasized the importance of the infantry commander, saying that he would have a good relationship with Suo Nuohe, and Yinfeng just laughed it off when he saw Suo'etu's words.Of course he knew the importance of commanding the infantry, otherwise, he would not have wanted Yinzhen to get close to Longkodo.

For such an important position, Kangxi will definitely place someone who is close and trusted. Sonohe is just a temporary errand. No matter how close Suoetu is to Sonohe, once Kangxi finds out, Sonohe will be dismissed. It's a matter of time.

Yinfeng lit a candle and burned Suo'etu's secret letter on the candle. He silently stared at the letter as it burned to ashes, and did not intend to reply.In fact, since four years ago, he has not replied to Soetu's secret letter.

After blowing out the candle, Yin Reng stared at the smoke that curled up after the candle went out, and suddenly heard De Zhu report: "Prince, the fourth elder brother is here."

When Yinreng heard this, he hurriedly smiled and said, please come in quickly.

As soon as Yinzhen entered the room, he saw Yinreng holding Weiyi, and laughed: "Every time I come back, I can see the second brother holding Weiyigege, does the second brother love his daughter so much? Aren't you going to be jealous?"

"You have a daughter now, don't you know this feeling? Compared with a son, shouldn't this daughter be hugged and pampered?"

A few days ago, Yinzhen had an eldest daughter, but it was not from his Fujin, but from the Gege Song family who served him. Yinfeng replied with a smile, and stretched out his hand to poke Weiyi's pink and tender cheek , saw Weiyi pouted before smiling, "Look, isn't she cute like this? You go back and poke your daughter too, it's fun!"

"Second brother, I'm here to tell you something serious." Yinzhen is used to it, and the second brother is like this when facing his daughter, as if he has changed himself.

Yinzhen could tell that only when he was teasing his daughter, the second brother's smile was sincere, just like when he was smiling at him when he was a child.Yin Zhen hadn't seen such a smile for many years.

Hearing this, Yinreng glanced at Yinzhen, then turned his head and called the nanny who was waiting at the side to come and take Weiyi away. After everyone had left, Yinreng sat down, and while motioning for Yinzhen to sit down too, he asked Said: "What did you ask me to say?"

Yinzhen said: "Yesterday, when I was in class in the study, Huang Ama came to check the homework, and let us elder brothers take turns to endorse and listen to him. Moreover, several university scholars also followed. After the endorsement, because of the class that day , the masters are talking about the way of being an official. Huang Ama diverged from this topic and talked about fratta."

"Flatta?" Yinfeng said, "Governor of the Two Rivers, Flatta?"

"Yes, that's him," Yinzhen said, "Huang Ama said that since Jackie Chan, there is only Fu Lata who is a good official in Jiangnan and Jiangxi. Soldiers and civilians are very commendable. If you want to talk about being an official and a minister, Fratta has done an excellent job."

"Well done, why are you talking about him all of a sudden?" Yinfeng asked with a sullen face.

Yinzhen said: "Emperor Ama also said, because I received news the day before yesterday that Fu Lata, Governor of Liangjiang, died of illness in his office."

After hearing this, Yinfeng remained silent, with deep thought flashing in his eyes from time to time.

Yinzhen stared at Yinfeng and said, "Second brother, you know that Huang Ama won't praise fratta in front of us and the great scholars for no reason, right? You know the reason, right? fratta He is a member of the Mingzhu family, and he severely suppressed Xu Qianxue and his gang before, but now Huang Ama praised him so strongly in front of so many people. Second brother, Huang Ama has intentions, right? "

Yinfeng was silent for a while, before saying: "Huang Ama didn't say this to you, but to me and Suo'etu. To be precise, Huang Ama was warning me and Suo'etu. The reason why he was in the study There is only one purpose for saying these words to you and the great scholars, and that is to ensure that these words can reach the ears of me and Suoetu."

Yinfeng paused for a moment, and then said, "Also, it is also to send a signal of revival to the Mingzhu family, and to guide the public opinion in the court. By the way, relieve the pressure that Suo'etu brought to Huang Ama."

After hearing this, Yin Zhen stared at Yin Reng and asked, "Second Brother, what pressure did Master Suo put on Huang Ama?"
