The Struggle History of the Fourteenth Qing Dynasty

Chapter 282 The 58rd Year of Kangxi

The empress dowager made a big trip, and the eighth prince also went, but he was no longer the high-spirited eighth prince.

The Long Live Lord was sent to the funeral, but the Eighth Master was not on the list, so he could only observe filial piety at home to show his filial piety.

Bafujin didn't even have the chance to go to the palace to cry and mourn this time, but just followed the crowd to the Empress Dowager's funeral.

The old Bajia became more and more marginalized.

Fourth master's action to recover the debts did not mean to stop at all, many people began to sell their property to pay back the debt owed by the Ministry of Accounts.

Among them, including Ba Ye, Ba Fujin left a little money to live, and the rest even took half of her dowry, just to pay off the debt.

Unfortunately, it is still not enough.

The eighth prince's natal family is basically far away from his father's family. In Guo Luoluo's palace, there are Concubine Yi, Guo Guiren, Fifth Master and Ninth Master. Don't worry about her being the eighth prince's Fujin, let alone the eighth prince. The titles have all been wiped out, and it is polite to call him "Bafujin". In fact, after the eighth master's wife was stripped of all the titles, she stubbornly gave the Ministry of Rites an offer, please resign. All titles.

Now the correct name should be "Guo Luoluo's".

Prince An's mansion is now the son of Yue Le's family. To be honest, this is Guo Luoluo's uncle, but he doesn't have a good relationship with Guo Luoluo. At the earliest time, Prince An's mansion supported Zhijun Wang. But then the king of Zhijun fell; Guo Luoluo went back to her mother's house to lobby, and Prince An's mansion was changed to support Baye.

But Master Ba is also unlucky!

Who is Prince An's mansion supporting and who is unlucky? Guo Luoluo's family said it was a hype at the time. As for the eighth master, it was indeed huge and powerful at that time, and half of the court ministers supported him.

However, he still failed!

And after a crushing defeat, Lord Long Live beat the eighth prince to the end.

In the past few years, they have been treated coldly, so Prince An's Mansion is not so warm to Guo Luoluo's family. Besides, Guo Luoluo's family in Prince An's Mansion is not as important as she thinks.

What's more, Prince An's Mansion also repaid the money owed by the Ministry of Households, and the family was so poor that it was almost unbearable.

It can't help Guo Luoluo.

Guo Luoluo can only rely on herself.

In the hot summer, Fourteenth Lord accompanied Kangxi in the house to cool off. Because of Kangxi's weak body, even in summer, when it was very hot, he could just wear unlined clothes in the house, and he didn't feel too hot.

Fourteen is wearing clothes similar to old men's shirts, thin gauze material, which is very ventilated.

The father and son were in the Qingxi Bookstore in Changchun Garden, neither reading nor playing chess, but lying on the bamboo couch with their eyes closed to enjoy the coolness.

By the way, chatting, Kangxi fell asleep while chatting.

Fourteen put a thin brocade quilt on him to prevent him from catching cold.

And don't let the wind blow directly on him, Shisi looked at Kangxi with a tired and old face, and felt very distressed. In fact, being an emperor is really not as good as it looks on the surface.

Kangxi wakes up very early every day, usually at three or five o'clock in the middle of the night, and rarely sleeps in. Unlike him, since he left Gongjian Mansion, he has never taken the initiative to participate in the court meeting!

If Kangxi, the emperor Ama, didn't call him, he wouldn't go, and he wouldn't go to the court meeting.

Such days, Kangxi lived at least half of his life... Deducting the time after he ascended the throne and before taking office, at least for more than 30 years, he lived like this, and it didn't delay him sleeping with women and having children.

In fact, Kangxi is also very hard, no wonder he has to tour the north and south every year, so he doesn't have to get up so early when he goes out.

Moreover, although the Forbidden City is gorgeous, it is square and upright.

There are big rules, even though he is an emperor, he can't disobey the rules, and Kangxi is also a person who pursues perfection.

How hard it is to live!

The Fourteenth Master looked at it for the last time, and fell asleep lying there. He was sitting on the foot of the bamboo couch, and fell asleep lying on the bamboo couch. After Kangxi woke up, he saw his fourteenth son Falling asleep lying there, sleeping early and guarding his bamboo couch, Kangxi's heart softened, this son... if only there was nothing wrong with this son.

Kangxi is actually most optimistic about Fourteen, but Fourteen's exhausted character is really not what makes him a wise king. It would be great if he could be more diligent.

Fourteenth Master took a nap, woke up and saw that Kangxi was awake.

"Huang Ama?" Fourteenth Master rubbed his eyes and stood up: "Are you up?"

"Well, the weather is too hot, take a nap, sweat a little, and your body is a little sticky, go take a shower." Kangxi has already finished the shower, and even his hair is completely dry at this time, and a middle-aged eunuch is braiding for him. braid.

"Oh." Master Fourteen went to take a shower.

I ran outside for a while, dried my hair, and asked someone to braid it.

After returning, Kangxi was reading the booklet, and the Fourteenth Master said displeasedly: "Huang Ama, stop reading the booklet, do you want to rest?"

Kangxi put down the notebook: "I'm used to it."

"Huang Ama, you are too tired after reading the papers for a lifetime." Fourteenth Master said with some distress: "Take a rest."

"It's only you who dare to talk to me like that." Kangxi pushed Zhezi away: "Okay, take a break."

"How about we eat tomato and egg cold noodles at night?" Master Fourteen said, "It's a sweet and sour appetizer."

On such a hot day, I actually have no appetite for anything to eat, and Kangxi is the same.

"Okay, then eat this." Kangxi really had no appetite.

Of course, the emperor's dinner will not only have tomato and egg cold noodles.

Thin white noodles, with red, green and green tomato and egg marinade.

There are also stewed beef, preserved egg tofu, tiger dishes, Dinghu Shangsu, etc., which are basically cold dishes, eaten cold, but Fourteenth Master also ordered a boiled fish.

These are all appetizers, and Kangxi also likes them very much. The Fourteenth Master eats with him. How delicious is Fourteen's meal?Even Kangxi ate an extra bowl of noodles.

Liang Jiugong, who is happy, has the Fourteenth Lord to accompany the Long Live Lord for almost every meal.

When I got up early in the morning, I went to find Master Fourteen and had breakfast with Lord Long Live.

Kangxi's breakfast consists of 36 staple dishes, [-] soups, and more than [-] side dishes.

Seeing Shisi coming, he smiled and said, "Is this because of the smell?"

"Knowing that Huang Ama's breakfast here is delicious and full of variety, I'm here with the cheek!" Fourteenth Master said: "Look, is it right? I don't have crab roe soup buns for breakfast here. This son-in-law loves to eat the most."

There was a gag by the Fourteenth Master, and Kangxi used two extra buns. After dinner, the father and son went out for a walk, taking advantage of the cool weather and walking under the shade of a tree.

Chatting, talking, and then going back, Fourteen tried to let Kangxi read less memorials, and Kangxi, for his own health, he didn't dare to let himself be tired.

Fourth master's pursuit of payment is not very effective, and the rest of the people who don't pay back the money are all nail-biters!

In the golden autumn and August, the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Lord Long Live lived in the Changchun Garden. As in the past, those who were close to him would be called into the garden to celebrate the festival, and those who were not close would kowtow to the empty throne in the palace.

Because of the death of the Empress Dowager, this year, from New Year's Eve to Dragon Boat Festival, and then to Mid-Autumn Festival, was very dull and not lively at all.

Big brother Honghui is still with Kangxi, and Kangxi blatantly likes big brother Honghui, and many people have small ideas.

Some people even think that this is Lord Long Live supporting Prince Yong again.

After all, Prince Yong's methods are becoming more and more frightening.

If you pay the arrears firmly, it's time to raid the house next!

But everyone still wanted to struggle for the last time, and some people resigned to their fate. After the autumn harvest, they sold the fields and grain to pay off the debt.

So this Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone's life is not very good.

As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival was over, Fourth Master issued an ultimatum to all debtors.

In October, just after the Gold Awarding Festival, Kangxi ordered Hanlin and Kedao officials to enter the value.

The emperor's seventh son Yinyou, the emperor's tenth son Yin, and the emperor's twelfth son Yinyu were ordered to manage the affairs of Zhenghuang, Zhengbai, and Zhenglan Manchurian and Han banners.

The fourth master started to pursue the payment. First of all, he sent officials from the household department to collect the debt.

Lord Long Live went to the Xiaotangshan Palace to soak in the hot springs. Regardless of this matter, many people wanted to ask for love, but they couldn't find a way.

The fourth master is ruthless, the thirteenth master does not do anything, and the others are of little importance.

The Long Live Lord went to Xiaotangshan Palace, and Nian Gengyao took people to escort him. Xiaotangshan has the other courtyard of the Fourteenth Lord, and he lives there. The Fourteenth Lord also lives in another courtyard. During the day, he will run away. To accompany Kangxi, and Kangxi is not only surrounded by the fourteenth master, but also the elder brother Honghui. The eighteenth prince has already given the betrothal gift this year, and he will have a family in the spring of next year.

What Kangxi is worried about now is the eighteenth son going out of the palace to build a mansion.

"It's good to live here!" Fourteen accompanied Kangxi to look at the blueprints, and was choosing the location of the eighteenth prince's residence.

Kangxi chose one, which was the old house of Suo'etu's family. Didn't Suo'etu confiscate the house? Their house has been empty all the time, and many people are staring at it.

When the seventeenth elder brother left the palace to build a mansion, he wanted to ask for the house of Etu's family.

But, Kangxi didn't give it to him.

Now he is considering giving it to his eighteenth son.

"Here? It needs to be repaired." Kangxi also thinks that Suo'etu's old house is good, but it has been empty for so long and needs to be tidied up before it can be used as a new house.

"Then clean it up." The Fourteenth Master said, "It's just right to get married next year."

The eighteenth prince hurriedly kowtowed to thank Shengen: "Thank you, Emperor Ama, for the reward."

In other words, the Suo'etu family's mansion not only occupies a large area, but also has everything in it, but it is a bit old. It is a luxury mansion if people go to renovate it!

Kangxi is now worried about these little things, such as the knowledge of the 21th prince, the studies of the [-]th prince, and the health of the [-]st prince.

The older I get, the more I worry about these small things. In addition, Kangxi discussed with Shisi: "Which beautiful girl do you think is suitable for Honghui?"

The Fourteenth Master was stunned: "Honghui? He's not even 15 years old, is he?"

"It's not too young. When we get married, we have to learn the rules for two years, and then we get married. No matter what, it will take three to five years." Kangxi leaned on the kang: "Besides, Honghui is not just marrying Fujin, his Fujin will be married in the future." It is to be held accountable.”

The Fourteenth Master smiled: "Then it's up to Huang Ama, how can I see a beautiful girl?"

"Do you think I only look at her face?" Kangxi rolled his eyes at him: "This beautiful girl first looks at her family background, her background, her blood, her upbringing, and her face at the end."

Fourteen was even happier: "If he is an ugly monster, your great-grandson will be sad in the future."

Kangxi angrily threw a cushion to Fourteen: "Don't argue with me, can I find an ugly monster for Honghui?"

In fact, their father and son were not too sure about this matter. It just so happened that Prince Yong came, and the father and son talked to Prince Yong about it.

Prince Yong is a lot of bachelors: "Everything is up to Huang Ama, it is Honghui's honor to have you personally marry him."

"Ask your daughter-in-law later to see what kind of daughter-in-law she wants." Kangxi was quite democratic.

"My son's daughter-in-law also means the same thing, otherwise she would have been involved long ago, and has been waiting for Huang Ama to find a suitable one." Prince Yong said: "Emiang also means the same."

Kangxi is very proud, because everyone counts on him.

But the draft has to be next year's event, this year is impossible, Honghui is already a big boy, Fourteen wonders if Fourth Master told him about the marriage, but he didn't tell his children, he thinks it should be a father Mother said.

Kangxi spent the winter in Xiaotangshan Palace. In the twelfth lunar month, just after Laba, after eating porridge, Kangxi issued an imperial decree: Empress Xiaohuizhang was promoted to the Tai Temple, located on the left of Empress Xiaokangzhang, and issued an edict to the world.

At the same time, the harem also came to a big concubine, the concubine of Jin He was concubine concubine, concubine Wang was concubine secret, concubine Chen was concubine Qin, the niece of the ancestor's mourning concubine Borzigit was concubine Xuan, and concubine Dai was canonized. Jia's family is Chengfei.

Only then did the fourteenth master know that Wang's concubine has been promoted by half a rank.

This is also a shame for the eighteen princes, the secret concubine Wang, after being canonized, received a lot of rewards, all of which were saved up to be distributed to the three sons.

This year has been very dull. In addition to the flattening of Tibet, the overseas Royal Navy fleet of the Qing Dynasty also dumped gold, silver, treasures and food, and the people in the south were helped by firearms, and they did not allow Western visitors. What advantage did they take, but they snatched back a lot of territory.

This can be seen from the fact that Sulu Kingdom's tribute to the Qing Dynasty is getting better and better. Even the little prince of Sulu Kingdom still remembers Fourteen.

I made a pair of screens out of shells for Fourteen alone, which is very delicate and beautiful.

The Chinese New Year is still the same, there is no accident at all, but everyone still behaves happily, after all, is it Chinese New Year, Kangxi is also very sad: "Kangxi is 59 years old."

"Yes, it's time to congratulate Huang Ama next year. During the Chinese New Year next year, you will be in charge of the first Jiazi of Guozuo!" The Fourteenth Master smiled and said, "When you are 62 years old, you will have to hold a banquet for thousands of seniors. Then you will be seventy."

Life at seventy is rare since ancient times!

If Kangxi could live to be 70 years old, that would be really gratifying.

"No, your Huang Ama will be satisfied after being in power for a year." Kangxi said, "How is the situation with your fourth brother?"

"It's almost there. There are still some people, die-hards, nail households, who have to ransack their homes." Fourteen said, "My brother is also worried."

"What's there to worry about? I gave him an imperial decree that if he doesn't pay back the money, he will ransack his house." Kangxi was really angry.
