In September of the 34th year of the Kangxi reign, good news came that the Dzungar tribe was completely wiped out from the world, and Western Mongolia was ruled by Princess Kejing.
When the news reached the court, it immediately caused an uproar.
At the court meeting, several ministers impeached Princess Kejing, saying that she had killed people like crazy and was a brutal and cruel person.
They all knelt and begged, "Your Majesty, please revoke Princess Kejing's privilege of participating in politics!"
A group of old ministers knelt on the ground, followed by many young ministers. However, there were also many ministers standing, especially those officials from the Ministry of War who had dealt with Princess Kejing. They looked at others with disdain.
The Minister of War immediately stepped out and declared, "Your Majesty, please allow me to report that the massacre of the Dzungar tribe was a unanimous decision made by all the officials in the Ministry of War. It was not the decision of Princess Kejing alone."
"Besides, Prince Zhi is also on the battlefield in Moxi. He is the commander of an army, and all decisions must be approved by him. How can we only blame Princess Kejing!"
"Your Majesty, please understand!"
After the Minister of War said this, all the officers in the Ministry of War spoke up: "Your Majesty, please understand!"
It's not that they are not afraid of death, nor are they so brave and responsible, but they still stood up one by one.
There is no other reason. What Prince Zhi and Princess Kejing did was actually done at the instruction of the Emperor.
Since the emperor stands on the side of his own children, why don't they dare to speak out a few fair words?
Anyway, nothing will go wrong, and it can also do good things for the two princes and princesses, and leave a good impression on the emperor.
The Minister of War and a group of military officials spoke for Princess Kejing. The other officials who asked the emperor to severely punish Kejing immediately became angry.
Just as he was about to criticize the military officials again, he heard the Crown Prince, who had not spoken a word, speak up: "Khan Father, I think--"
Those ministers looked at him with some expectation in their hearts. In their opinion, if the Crown Prince wanted to have a good reputation, he would never agree with this murderous decision. He would definitely stand on their side and suppress Princess Kejing from the court.
This idea became more solid when they heard the crown prince say that "the massacre of the Dzungar tribe was a crime."
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Crown Prince Yinreng remained calm. He continued, "Khan Ama, I think that my elder brother and sister Kejing are too focused on the beginning and not the end. They only care about destroying the Junggar tribe so that Western Mongolia can be peaceful, but they forget that when the army returns to the court, there will be no one to suppress the troubles from other tribes in Western Mongolia."
"Moreover, the western part of the desert is adjacent to Tsarist Russia. If Tsarist Russia takes the opportunity to invade western Mongolia, it will probably lead to a disaster!"
What he said made sense, but it also felt weird.
Whether they were officials who supported Kejing or those who resisted Kejing, they all looked at Yinreng silently, wanting to know what he was going to say next.
Kangxi also looked at Yinreng, his eyebrows moved, and he said in a deep voice: "What the prince said makes sense, so how do you think this matter should be resolved?"
Yinreng smiled slightly and said slowly: "Khan Ama, whoever created the situation should solve it."
He caught a glimpse of the horrified looks on the faces of those ministers. He knew that they might have some speculations, but he didn't care.
Instead, he continued, "Khan Ama, I think that we should hand over Western Mongolia to Kejing and let her handle the subsequent matters."
It was not about marrying into any tribe in western Mongolia, but directly handing over the entire western Mongolia to Kejing.
As soon as these words came out, the ministers who were about to ask Kangxi to punish Ke Jing were instantly stunned, "No! Your Majesty, you can't do that!"
It has always been the norm for the Qing Dynasty for princesses to marry into Mongolia. How come there is suddenly another princess who directly rules Western Mongolia?
This is wrong!
Their attention instantly shifted from how to drive Princess Kejing, a woman, out of the court to how to dissuade the emperor and the crown prince from making this horrifying decision.
If we really want to hand over Western Mongolia to Princess Kejing, wouldn't that make Western Mongolia the princess's fiefdom?
Even princes and dukes don’t have fiefs, so how could a princess have the turn to fight for land?
A group of ministers had their own opinions, and some even blamed the Crown Prince for talking nonsense.
As the crown prince, instead of thinking about how to deal with those princes who are a threat to him, he actually wants to personally help his opponent to rise up. What kind of logic is this? !
Although Princess Kejing is a woman and does not pose much of a threat to the throne, she has a very good relationship with Prince Zhi and there is no guarantee that she will not support Prince Zhi in his bid for the throne. Isn't the Crown Prince worried? !
Even if the Crown Prince is not worried, don't the other princes worry too much?
When their eyes fell on the row of princes standing there in silence, the ministers felt a little desperate again.
I almost forgot that every time they went to court, unless there was something to report to the emperor, these princes were more dumb than each other, and the only one who really spoke was the crown prince.
Just like now, the emperor and the crown prince are already considering whether to assign Moxi to Kejing to govern, but these princes are still silent.
Especially the third-ranked Prince Cheng and the fourth-ranked Prince Yong, both of whom are princes now, but they are still the same as when they first entered the court, extremely quiet, as if they were just there to stand as punishment.
A group of ministers were furious.
In fact, Prince Rencheng and Prince Yong were talking in a low voice at this time.
Yinzhi: "Fourth brother, when do you think Khan Ama will agree with what Second Brother said?"
Yinzhen: "Soon, right? Let those ministers argue for a while, and they will probably speak."
Today's action was already discussed between father and son.
After the good news came, Khan Ama summoned his sons, and after a detailed discussion, they made a decision.
Although Princess Haibang is in charge of the northern part of the desert rather than the western part of the desert, the Mongolians in the northern part of the desert are currently behaving well and it is difficult for them to do anything.
As for Kejing, she wanted to fight for herself and did not want to be like her previous sisters who, after getting married, relied on her husband's family to control Mongolia. So she gave up the Khan's arrangement to arrange another marriage for her.
It just so happened that Moxi was short of a person in charge at the moment, so the task was given to Ke Jing, and she was allowed to make arrangements herself. Anyway, she had their support behind her.
Just like this discussion, the scene today came about.
"Will Khan Ama make Kejing a king?" As a man who has not given up his storytelling career, Yinzhi's eyes lit up and he whispered, "I think the title of 'King of Zhenxi' is a good one!"
What a mistake. If he had known this, he would have proposed it directly to Khan Ama during the discussion yesterday. Why did he only think of it now?
Yinzhi was very upset.
Yinzhen was shocked by his words and could not help but think along the lines of what he said, "If he really wants to be crowned a king, I'm afraid those stubborn old ministers will go to Khan Ama to make a death appeal."
"They will die for their remonstrances, and they will not have a good reputation in the writings of the historians anyway."
Are there really so many people who are not afraid of death?
Yinzhi didn't believe it.
So many people who say they are willing to die for admonishing the emperor basically do so to leave their names in history. What a great reputation it is to die for admonishing the emperor!
It's a pity that the historians around Khan Ama were not serious historians. If they really wanted to die for their advice, then they would be dead forever and it would be impossible to record any good name for them.
