The world is majestic

When Kangxi woke up, it was already midnight, Yinhu and Yinzhen were guarding the side hall, not even daring to close their eyes for a moment, when Liang Jiugong came to summon them, they immediately got up and went into Kangxi's bedroom .

Kangxi was wearing a robe, leaning on the head of the bed, his eyes slightly squinted, and a palace servant was serving him to drink medicine.Seeing Yinzhen and the others came in, Kangxi waved away the others and said in a deep voice, "You are here."

Yinhu had never seen Kangxi look so haggard, his brows were tightly wrinkled, and there seemed to be a ravine that could not be smoothed out, his face was no longer pale, but an extremely unhealthy sallow, with deep-pitched cheeks. The deep depression went down, making the whole person look old and weak.

Thinking of how powerful this person was in the past, he could turn clouds and rain with just one hand, but now he has not seen him for a few days, and he is so weak, Yinhu only felt sore in his heart, and called out in a low voice, "Huang Ama... "

Kangxi coughed twice, raised his body slightly, frowned and said in a low voice: "The two of you are here today, does anyone else know?"

Hearing this, Yinzhen and Yinhu looked at each other, bowed their heads and said, "Going back to Huang Ama, there is no one else. Does Huang Ama feel unwell? Why don't you call the imperial physician in again for a diagnosis and treatment."

Kangxi waved his hands slowly, and his voice seemed to be a little more vigorous, "It's okay, I know my own body and my heart. You two come closer, come and talk to me."

Yinhu and Yinzhen went forward as they said, and knelt down on the little table in front of Kangxi's couch. Kangxi didn't speak, and neither of them dared to speak.In such a huge bedroom, apart from the ticking of Geng Le, there was no other sound.

Such silence seemed to indicate something.

"In my life, I have had many children, but most of them are unsatisfactory. Even for the two of you, I always suppress and suspect you. I think you must have resented me in your heart."

As soon as Yinhu heard what Kangxi said, he was about to bow his head and kneel immediately, but was stopped by Kangxi, "There is no need to kneel, and you will always 'plead guilty, plead guilty'. How could there be such a big crime? Among the four sons, the boss and the deposed prince are not on good terms, the third is not good-hearted, and the remaining few... don't mention it. I thought that Shisi and you two are good, but now he is because of a momentary temper Make a big mistake." Kangxi couldn't help coughing twice when he said this, his voice was low but very clear, "It is a great disaster to plan the wild ambitions of Allah Butan, just like Galdan back then. If you can't If we cut it up, there will be endless troubles in the future. Duanjing has been in Karaqin for many years and knows a lot about Garzang Mitong's affairs with foreigners. I wanted to take care of him personally, but now it seems that I may not be able to do it. Before, he had to ask about all the conspiracies he had planned with him, and you two need to keep this in mind."

Yinhu's voice trembled involuntarily, and he raised his head to look at Kangxi, "Don't say such a thing, Huang Ama, you are the son of the real dragon, auspicious person and celestial face, and it is just a slight illness, and it will be fine if you take care of it carefully. gone."

"You don't need to say these words, I understand it naturally in my heart." Kangxi sighed a long time, as if filled with thousands of melancholy, "How could this person not die? It's just...it's too short..."

With such a sigh, the emperor expressed all the unwillingness in his heart, his eyes closed for a moment, and Kangxi asked Yinhu again: "Old Ba, when I asked you to make a poisonous oath, did you ever resent me in your heart?" ?”

The weak and weak Kangxi in front of him overlapped with the Kangxi who hated him deeply in the previous life. Yinhu felt a pang in his heart, and there was a little blur in front of his eyes. He shook his head and whispered: "Huang Ama is the father , is the emperor again. Since ancient times, the way of the emperor has always been different from ordinary people. I have never resented the emperor Ama, not to mention the oath, which was originally what I thought in my heart. If I can be a virtuous minister, I will assist you. Mingjun, my son and minister feel that this life is enough."

Kangxi glanced at him meaningfully, and said to Yinzhen: "You have been doing business steadily all these years, and I have seen all of them. Let me ask you today, if you want you to be like the old eight, you can live forever Are you willing to be a good minister without any second thoughts?"

Hearing this, Yinzhen felt chills in his heart. He couldn't figure out what Kangxi's words meant. Could it be that he and Yinhu were called to him today to pave the way for Yinzhen to build a bridge in the future?Yinzhen felt nervous in his heart, even his fingertips felt a little cold, he bowed his head and replied in a low voice: "As long as our country can prosper, my son is willing to die."

What he said was a little clever, just avoided the most important part, but answered Kangxi's question.Kangxi nodded slightly when he heard the words, his expression seemed to be a bit tired, and he told the two of them: "I'm a little tired, you go back first."

Neither Yinhu nor Yinzhen could figure out Kangxi's intentions tonight, but they didn't dare to ask more questions. The two continued to talk according to their words. After they left the palace, Yinzhen said in a low voice with a condensed expression: "I'm afraid this matter is not good. What Huang Ama said tonight has a lot of meaning in it."

Yinhu frowned and said: "Huang Ama called you and me so eagerly...I always have a feeling in my heart, fourth brother, do you think it will...will it..."

What he said was incomplete, but Yinzhen understood what he meant, nodded and said: "I'm afraid that's the case, Huang Ama just reprimanded Fourteen first, and then asked me for such words...Now I am I really don’t understand, there is only one plan now.”

"what?"

Yinzhen looked solemn and dignified, gritted his teeth and said a word, "Wait!"

Up to now, there is no room for the slightest change.Even if there was a sudden change in the end, Yinzhen also made up his mind to control the situation no matter what.

He and Yinzhen are already in conflict, and at the moment of life and death, if anyone softens his hand, he will only have a dead end.

After Kangxi woke up the next day, he ordered Liang Jiugong to send another person to come to Changchun Garden. It was none other than Zhang Tingyu, a scholar.

Zhang Tingyu has been deeply trusted by Kangxi for many years. When Kangxi fought against Galdan, Zhang Tingyu's retinue went out to the fortress three times. At that time, he was the only Hanchen who received this honor.But when he was sick and resigned from office, Kangxi still comforted him in the court. From this, it can be seen that Kangxi loved this man very much.

Zhang Tingyu was led into the palace gate by Long Keduo, Liang Jiugong led everyone to retreat, Long Keduo just wanted to retreat, and heard Kangxi say in a low voice, "Long Keduo stay."

Longkodo's eyelids moved, and he didn't dare to say much, so he bowed his head and stood aside in response.

Zhang Tingyu and him waited quietly for a while before they heard Kangxi say: "Longkoduo accepts the order."

Longkodo was taken aback, and quickly knelt down, "The servant is here."

"Longkoduo has been devoted to his duty for many years, diligent and diligent. Today, he has been promoted to the position of Prince Taibao, Minister of the Guards, and Minister of the Upper Study. He is still in charge of the affairs of the nine admirals. I respect this."

Long Kedo didn't know why, but he still didn't forget the rules, and hurriedly bowed his head and bowed, "Slave Long Ke thanked Lord Long En."

Kangxi coughed twice in a low voice, and then spoke again after a moment of delay, "This is a decree, and I have already handed it over to Tingyu, so I don't need to read it out to you now. It's just that I Let me tell you, there are two decrees, one is life, the other is death. One is endless wealth, and the other is death without burial. Although I have issued the first imperial decree to you now, as long as you keep my entrustment, then The second decree is just as if it doesn't exist. If it can't... Tingyu can read it all the time and put you to death, do you understand?"

Only then did Longkodo understand why Kangxi was in a hurry to summon Zhang Tingyu to Changchun Garden, and left the two of them alone to listen to the training in front of the imperial court. It turned out that he was going to use him to threaten him.Long Kedo was sweating coldly on his forehead at this moment, knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily, saying: "Long live master, the servant is loyal, which can show the sun and the moon! If the long live master has anything to say, just order, the slave will definitely die. Nothing else!"

Kangxi's eyes fell steadily on Long Kedo, and he said slowly: "I want you to remember that when I die, you must firmly guard the nine gates of the capital, and never give anyone who is willing to take advantage of it." You must be loyal to your duties and assist the new king to ascend the throne. As long as you are loyal and unswerving until death, I will protect your prosperity for the rest of your life and the safety of your descendants. I have guarded the country of the Qing Dynasty for 50 years. It's not easy! I really want to guard him for another 50 years, but right now...it's impossible. In the future, you and Tingyu will be the important ministers of the country! We must help the new king well and keep this love Xinjueluo's ancestral foundation must be passed on properly. I speak from the bottom of my heart, you two, do you remember clearly?"

After hearing Kangxi's words, Zhang Tingyu and Long Keduo felt a little bit of resignation. Their hearts were filled with emotion and agitation. They knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Long live Lord, don't worry, this slave is lucky to live forever." If the master trusts so much, he will definitely not dishonor this kindness. As long as there are slaves alive, they will fight to the death to protect the Qing Dynasty!"

Kangxi sighed heavily, and said to Zhang Tingyu: "Longkoduo back down, Tingyu, you stay."

Longkodo knew that Kangxi must have something to say to Zhang Tingyu in private, and these words were most likely to be the last crucial edict. After he stepped down, he kept looking for Wei Zhu, frowning: "Hurry up!" , take me to Siye's place now!"

Besides Zhang Tingyu's side, Kangxi dismissed Longkodo and left him alone, Zhang Tingyu also guessed a little bit in his heart, and stood aside anxiously for a long time, but Kangxi kept coughing incessantly until that day. After turning around, Zhang Tingyu heard Kangxi quietly open his mouth.

"Tingyu, go to the desk over there and get a pen and paper."

Hearing this, Zhang Tingyu became more determined in her mind just now, walked quickly to the table, took a pen and ink, and only waited for Kangxi to speak.

And Zhang Tingyu himself didn't realize it at the moment, his fingers holding the pen and paper were trembling.

Kangxi cleared his throat slightly, and said in a low and clear voice: "It has never been the case that emperors rule the world without respecting the ancestors of the heavens. The heart of the whole world is the heart, to protect the country before it is in danger, to bring order before it is chaotic, to work hard all day and night, to sleep without sleep, it is a long-term national plan, and it is close to it.”

Zhang Tingyu didn't dare to be lighthearted, and listened to each word very carefully, as if every time he wrote a word, there was a tiny needle point pricking his heart slightly.After finishing the posthumous edict, it was clearly the middle of winter, but Zhang Tingyu's back was almost completely soaked, and there were even tiny beads of sweat on his forehead, densely spreading from his cheeks to his neck.

After Kangxi finished reading slowly, he finally sighed and said in a low voice: "If that's the case, there's nothing else..."

Two days later, all the ministers and princes were summoned to the Changchun Garden, and everyone knelt together in the Shouxuan Chunyong Hall, including Yinhu and Yinzhen.Yinzhen knelt outside for more than half an hour, already anxious, Tong Yinzhen asked in a low voice: "Brother, what do you think about this Huang Ama? You arrived earlier than us, do you know what is more detailed?" the situation?"

Yinhu frowned to signal him to keep silent, at the moment Yinhu himself was in a state of confusion, and Kangxi never summoned him and Yinzhen since that night.The news from Longkodo alluded to the fact that Kangxi had ordered Zhang Tingyu to draw up a will in private.

Whose name is written on it?In the hearts of all the people kneeling here, I'm afraid it's all about this matter.

However, among the princes kneeling down, apart from the imprisoned Yinfeng, Yinreng and Yinxiang, Yinzhen was the only one missing.

Yinhu thought secretly in his heart, perhaps because Ganzhou was far away from the capital, the Fourteenth must be on the way, but Yinzhen would not let him return to the capital so easily.

If the name read out in a while is Fourteen...

Yinhu didn't even dare to think about it, since the moment he was reborn and opened his eyes, he was already convinced that the new king was Yinzhen.It's just that too many things went wrong in this life, plus what Kangxi said that night, Yinhu couldn't help but feel a little uneasy at this moment, and felt chills in his heart.

Just when everyone was waiting extremely anxiously, Zhang Yanyu suddenly came out from inside and said to everyone: "The emperor summons all the princes and ministers to come in for an audience."

Yinzhen was the first to stand up, and walked inward with no expression on his face, his face was calm, but his heart was extremely disturbed.It's just that the people of Fengtai Camp in his hands are already ready to go outside Changchun Garden, and Longkodo is also his own. Now that Yinzhen has not returned for a long time, it must be too late.Yinzhen had already made up his mind, no matter who was written in the edict, he would never lose this battle.

There was a strong smell of medicine in the bedroom, and Kangxi's sallow complexion was reflected in the bright yellow curtains, making him even more haggard.After everyone entered, no one dared to speak, but Yinhu clearly smelled a rotten smell.

The emperor who has been in charge of the country for fifty years has finally reached the moment when the torch has turned to ashes.

Kangxi had just been lying down in a daze for a while, but now he seemed to be a little bit more energetic when he heard everyone entering the room, and said in a low voice, "Lao Ba, come here."

As soon as Yinhu heard Kangxi calling him, he hurried forward and knelt down in front of Kangxi's couch, "Huang Ama, my son is here."

"Listen well, after the day of Zhenbin, you need to know the general situation, and don't make any jokes for those Han people to see. They are staring at our world full of people. This world is The foundation of the ancestors, how many people have shed blood and died in exchange for it, if it is broken in your hands, I will not be able to close my eyes even if I die..." Kangxi said that he was slightly panting behind him, and his voice became weaker and weaker, "All of you, all of you Write it down for me, you must assist the new king well..."

When Yinhu heard this, his eyes were blurred, he stretched out his hand to grab Kangxi's very cold palm, choked up and said, "I've made it down, Huang Ama can rest assured."

After Kangxi finished speaking, he paused, and said to Zhang Tingyu, "Tingyu, read the will."

Zhang Tingyu responded, turned around and took out the imperial edict from the side of the imperial court. His fingers trembled a little, and after trying to calm down for a moment, he read it aloud.

There are more than a thousand words in this edict, and Zhang Tingyu read every word without any hassle, but the people kneeling down were already scratching their heads. The first words are not important, the most important thing is the last One sentence.

"... There are more than a hundred descendants of me. I am already sixty years old, and all the kings, ministers, officials, soldiers, civilians, and Mongols all cherish me. Although my old man is dying now, I am also happy."

Yinzhen's heart was almost in his throat, and Zhang Tingyu said slowly: "The sons of the emperor Taizu, the sons of Li, the princes and grandchildren, are all safe now. If you can take care of yourself behind me, I will die happily Yinzhen, the fourth son of Prince Yong, has a noble character, deeply likes me, and will be able to inherit the great order. After I ascended the throne, that is, the emperor's throne, that is, obeying the system, holding the clothes for 27 days, releasing the clothes and making announcements at home and abroad, salty Make it known."

The room fell silent for a moment, and even breathing seemed so loud, Zhang Tingyu paused, and then read the last sentence, "On the tenth day of the first month of the 50th year of Kangxi, Mao."

So far, all the ups and downs have come to an end.

However, at this moment, a person shouted: "Huang Ama, why haven't you heard the name of the new king?"

Yinzhen turned around sharply and saw that the speaker was Yinzhi, and as soon as his words fell, several ministers echoed together: "Yes, the ministers have never heard of it. Did Master Zhang read the imperial edict for you? Missed it?"

The coldness in Kangxi's eyes was as sharp as that of a knife, and he shouted sharply with all his strength: "Unfilial son! Here... get out!"

Yinzhi knew that this was the last fight, and Kangxi was running out of time. If the fourth child was really allowed to inherit the throne, how would he have a way out in the future?He simply opened his mouth and said: "Huang Amamo is going to be angry. My son heard it clearly. Huang Ama said that he wants to pass on the throne to the fourteenth elder brother. This is very good. The fourteenth elder brother has both talents and virtues. He is worthy of being a newcomer." Your responsibility."

Kangxi's face was ashen when he was angry with his words. He was so angry that he fell ill, but at this moment, his heart was even more furious.I saw Kang Xiqiang stood up and pointed at Yin Zhi as if he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, he vomited blood first.

The crimson blood stains were reflected on the bright yellow pajamas, which was particularly glaring. Yinhu stood in front of the couch in a daze, with chaotic sounds in his ears.At this moment, it is hard to hear who is speaking, and all the sounds around seem to be so close, yet seem so far away.
