Quick Wear: The heroine is a top-level boss
Chapter 245: Red Mansion Fengjie 6
Su Xing's words frightened Kangxi, and his desire for the Dragon God's protection suddenly faded. But he still didn't give up. After all, without the Dragon God's protection, he would always be harassed by ghosts.
Kangxi hesitated for a long time and asked again: "Is there no way to make the Dragon God willing to protect me?"
Su Xing said slowly: "Of course there is a way. The Dragon God is the Dragon God of the Han people. Under your majesty's rule, the more the Han people recognize you, the better the Dragon God will like you.
If all the Han people willingly accept you as the emperor and feel that you have led them through a good life, then even if Your Majesty is not the emperor of the Han people, the Dragon God will protect you."
Kangxi pulled the corner of his mouth a little awkwardly. It was true that he was not bad to the Han people, but it was impossible for him to be very good. He was the Manchu emperor, and all Manchus were wary of the Han people, fearing that they would rebel and disobey.
But now, Kangxi wanted to count on the Dragon God to save his life. After thinking about it, he couldn't help but think that he might as well take this opportunity to have a great integration of Manchus and Han people.
Since the Manchus entered the Pass, in order to show preferential treatment to the Manchus, the Manchus stopped working and were supported by the national treasury. However, this matter has become increasingly difficult to resolve and is threatening to bankrupt the national treasury.
The Manchus do not work and do not produce, so their expenses can only be added to the Han people and taxes will be imposed on them. In the long run, the Han people will definitely be dissatisfied.
If the Qing Dynasty had not been lucky and had high-yield grain, a large number of Han people would have starved to death and started a rebellion.
But just as the Han people lived a hard life, did the Manchus live a good life? No, it is undeniable that the Manchus lived a good life at the beginning.
But over time, the population will continue to grow, and as the number of Manchus increases, the national treasury cannot afford to support them, so the only option is to reduce the amount of silver that the Manchus can get.
The final result was that some Manchus with high status and wealth lived a very comfortable life, but more Manchus lived a very hard life.
The Manchus were not allowed to do business, farm, or even work to earn money. They could only wait for money from the court. However, the court could not afford the huge expenses of the Manchus, and the money given became less and less.
Unfortunately, the Manchus were not allowed to make money on their own, which resulted in most of the lower-class Manchus living worse off than the Han people.
In this regard, Kangxi also knew that some of the preferential treatment for the Manchus should be cancelled. This was not for the Han people, but for the majority of Manchus to live a less difficult life.
If they can work and do business to make money, then subsidies from the national treasury will be icing on the cake, ensuring that these lower-class Manchus live a good life.
Kangxi knew clearly that abolishing the differences between Manchus and Han people and allowing Manchus to earn money with their own hands would be beneficial to both the Han people and Manchus.
However, Kangxi could not make up his mind to change it, because he knew that the Manchu ministers in the court would definitely not agree. It would be too embarrassing for Manchus to work and earn money by themselves.
More importantly, if these preferential treatments are cancelled, the Manchus at the bottom will be able to live a good life, but the interests of the Manchus at the top will be affected.
These ministers did not really feel sorry for the lower-class Manchu people. They only cared about their own face and interests. Anyway, it was not them, the high-ranking officials, who were starving and freezing.
Before, Kangxi had never wanted to argue with these people, so he had never made up his mind to change. In addition, although the lives of the lower-class Manchus were not easy, they were far from being unable to survive.
But now his own life was at stake, and Kangxi finally made up his mind to cancel the preferential treatment for the Manchus and the rule that Manchu officials of the same rank were superior to Han officials in the court.
In addition to these, Kangxi thought of many regulations that would be conducive to improving the status of the Han people and prepared to implement them all.
Anyway, the court is bound to be shaken up, so it is better to shake it up thoroughly and solve the problem once and for all.
Of course, after thinking all this over, Kangxi explained it to Su Xing one by one, and carefully analyzed how much benefit these policies would bring to the Han people if they were promulgated.
After listing all the details, Kangxi finally revealed his true intention: "I have done these things that benefit the Han people. Will the Dragon God approve of me?"
It has to be said that, apart from other things, this Manchu emperor was the most centralized of all emperors in history, otherwise Kangxi would not have the confidence to change the ancestral rules.
Before, he just didn't want to cause trouble and didn't want to worry about the Han people. But now that it involves himself, he made up his mind without hesitation and was not afraid of those old Manchu ministers and relatives. This is the confidence of the centralization of imperial power.
What Kangxi said is good for the Han people, and because this world is a fusion of the small world of the Qing Dynasty and the Dream of the Red Chamber that is about to evolve into a big world.
The Dream of the Red Chamber is a big world, so the plot of this world is mainly based on The Dream of the Red Chamber, and the dynasty that Cao Xueqin created in The Dream of the Red Chamber is obviously a Han dynasty.
Therefore, the Qing Dynasty in this world was much more sinicized than in history, to the point where there was no longer any shaving. These policies that benefit the Han people would be much easier to implement than in the real Qing Dynasty in history.
If the Dream of Red Mansions evolves successfully into a big world, this small world of Qing Dynasty will be swallowed up. At that time, the Qing Dynasty background will disappear and change into the big world of Red Mansions.
Although Su Xing agreed with Kangxi's policy, he did not immediately give Kangxi a positive answer: "Whether the Dragon God agrees or not depends on whether the people agree or not.
As long as your majesty's order is issued, and the Han people all over the world feel the benefits and are grateful to your majesty, then the Dragon God will naturally sense the people's intentions and approve of your majesty. "
Kangxi's ideas were good, but it was inevitable that the officials who implemented them would pretend to obey them but actually disobey them. To be on the safe side, of course, Kangxi himself had to oversee the implementation of the policy.
Of course, we can’t just let people work, Su Xing directly said to the frowning Kangxi: "Your Majesty, don’t worry, although we can’t ask the Dragon God for protection for the time being, there are other ways.
I can draw a talisman for your majesty to protect you. It may not be as effective as the dragon god, but it can ensure that your majesty will not be disturbed by any ghosts for a month."
Kangxi was originally restless. It took a long time for this policy to go from being negotiated with ministers in the court to being formally implemented, and then to benefiting the people and making them feel happy.
Kangxi was afraid that something might happen again during this period, but now that Su Xing said he could draw a talisman for him to protect himself, Kangxi relaxed.
It would be best to have the protection of the Dragon God, but if you cannot get the approval of the Dragon God no matter what, then having a talisman to protect you once a month would also be fine.
"Then I'll trouble Miss Su Xing to draw an amulet for me. Don't worry, Miss Su Xing, I will watch the officials carefully implement these policies."
Su Xing nodded and said to Kangxi: "Your Majesty, please stretch out your left hand so that I can draw a talisman for you."
Kangxi stretched out his left hand in confusion: "Shouldn't we use talisman paper and cinnabar to draw this talisman?"
“Ordinary talismans are indeed drawn on talisman paper, but talismans drawn on talisman paper have too many uncertainties. They can be stolen, wetted by water, burned by fire, or accidentally thrown away.
In addition to these, the talisman paper can carry very little mana, basically just one attack is enough. The talisman I drew for Your Majesty is to draw my mana into a talisman and infuse it into Your Majesty's hands.
Although I said before that this spell can be used for a month, in fact, as long as the magic power is not destroyed, this spell will always be effective. One month is just the most conservative calculation. "
As Su Xing finished speaking, one hand had already supported Kangxi's left hand, making his palm face up. Su Xing raised his right hand, and a golden light flashed at his fingertips.
Su Xing used his fingers as a pen and drew an intricate amulet on Kangxi's hand in one go.
As soon as the amulet was completed, Kangxi felt a burning sensation in the palm of his left hand, and a golden talisman appeared faintly in his palm.
Su Xing withdrew his hand and said to Kangxi: "With this amulet, no ghosts can harm your majesty. Your majesty can rest assured. I will come back to draw a talisman for your majesty in a month."
With the amulet, Kangxi settled his mind and began to think about how to win over Su Xing. After much thought, Kangxi felt that it would be better to bind Su Xing and the Qing Dynasty together.
So Kangxi said directly: "Miss Su Xing, how about I appoint you as the Imperial Master and build a Imperial Master Mansion for you to live in?"
Kangxi had a good idea. Since their worldly ties had not yet ended, he might as well take the opportunity to quickly board the Qing ship. When their worldly ties were over in the future, perhaps they would be too tempted by the pleasures of this worldly world to want to leave.
Su Xing thought for a moment and said, "My master once told me that my practice has never been perfected because of my unfinished earthly ties. If I want to understand earthly ties, I must go through the same journey as the heroine in the mortal world.
My master told me that I must stay in Rongguo Mansion until I am 25 years old, but Rongguo Mansion is about to encounter a great disaster, which is inevitable. This is also an opportunity for me to sever my karmic relationship with Rongguo Mansion.
Before I understand the law of cause and effect, my master forbade me to use magic in front of others. I can accept the position of the national master, but I cannot use magic at will until my earthly ties are over, unless I am over 25 years old."
Su Xing's words were to tell Kangxi that Rongguo Mansion had nothing to do with her, it was just a cause and effect that he had to understand.
The reason why Su Xing did this was actually very simple. She didn't want to change the fate of Rongguo Mansion. The evolution of the small world into the big world was very important, and there couldn't be even the slightest mistake.
Su Xing didn't care about saving the Rongguo Mansion, but she was afraid that if the Rongguo Mansion was not confiscated, it would lead to the failure of this world to evolve into the big world again. Even if there was a one in ten thousand chance, Su Xing didn't want to take the risk.
The girls in Rongguo Mansion will have a miserable fate because of this, but compared with the whole world, the death of a hundred or eighty people does not matter, not to mention that it is just a miserable fate and they will not die.
Besides, she could just wait until the plot was over and the big world evolved successfully, and then save these girls, but she would have to suffer a little in the process.
But speaking of it, Su Xing actually didn't have much feeling for the girls with miserable fates in Dream of the Red Chamber.
Qingwen, a maid who spoiled herself too much and could not see her own identity clearly.
Xiren, needless to say, few people who read Dream of the Red Chamber like her. She is just a double-standard villain.
Yingchun, if you are Baozi, don't blame the dog for thinking about you. You are still confused. It is obvious that keeping Si Qi can maximize your own interests, but you gave up Si Qi.
After they got married, they were bullied by the Zhongshan wolves. Wasn't it because there was no strong girl to protect him? If Si Qi was there, he would never have been so miserable.
Tanchun, it is right to please Lady Wang and make her life good, but it is disgusting that she always steps on her own mother to please Lady Wang.
Although Aunt Zhao was not a good person, except for the time when Tanchun's housekeeper made a fuss about her brother's burial money, she had never caused trouble for the daughter who stepped on her to get to the top.
He tries his best to please Jia Baoyu, but he wishes he could trample his own brother Jia Huan to death. It is too obvious that he flatters the powerful and bullies the weak.
Although those who are not selfish will be punished by heaven and earth, it does not prevent Su Xing from disliking such selfish people. There is nothing wrong with being selfish, but is it wrong to hate selfish people?
Shi Xiangyun, who keeps saying that she loves her brother, pretends to be straightforward but tries to hurt people's hearts. All she does is flatter the powerful and look down on the weak.
Why didn't she use her straightforwardness to attack Lady Jia, Jia Baoyu, Lady Wang, Xue Baochai, or even Xiren, but only attacked Lin Daiyu? Isn't it just bullying the weak and fearing the strong?
Xue Baochai is hypocritical and selfish. She eavesdropped on Xiaohong's conversation and then immediately pinned the blame on Lin Daiyu.
Xichun, a person who is so cold that she can be called cold-blooded, thinks about becoming a monk and living a peaceful life all day long. How come she doesn't know that monks are also compassionate?
Ruhua had done nothing wrong and served her wholeheartedly. When something happened, Youshi said there was no need to punish her, but Xichun insisted on dealing with Ruhua. Who would dare to have a close friendship with her who is so cold-blooded and ruthless?
Wang Xifeng is now Su Xing. There is no need to say much about who this Wang Xifeng is. She can do anything for money, and she deserves her death with blood on her hands.
The one with the best reputation among all the fans of the Dream of the Red Chamber is Lin Daiyu. She is a good person, but she is also a young lady who is arrogant and has no empathy for the poor.
It was just like when Lin Daiyu saw Granny Liu, seeing how she was deliberately teased by Wang Xifeng and Yuanyang, and seeing how Granny Liu wolfed down her food in a disheveled manner.
At this time, Lin Daiyu did not think about the fact that Granny Liu had never eaten good food and that poor people were afraid of hunger, nor did she feel sorry for Granny Liu being teased at such an old age.
What Lin Daiyu thought of was to mock Liu Laolao as a female locust, and asked Xichun to draw a picture of locusts eating food.
Although Lin Daiyu did not harbor any ill will towards Aunt Liu, and her words may even have been unintentional, it is this kind of unintentional, non-malicious belittlement that makes people feel uncomfortable.
There is not a single good person in the entire Rongguo Mansion, and only Jia Baoyu can be considered a good person. However, he is naive and ignorant of the ways of the world, and has not yet taken any responsibility.
He flirted with the maids all day long, but never really protected the maids who were harmed because of him, such as Jin Chuan and Qingwen. He would not give up any of them if he insisted on saving them.
Parents cannot prevail against their children, not to mention that Jia Baoyu has a strong backer in Grandmother Jia. He would rather let others lose their lives just to avoid being punished.
To sum up, Su Xing's attitude towards Rongguo Mansion is to watch coldly. Kangxi can see that Su Xing doesn't like Rongguo Mansion very much. If he wants to take action against Rongguo Mansion in the future, he doesn't have to worry about him.
Kangxi understood this and said directly: "Don't worry, Miss Suxing, although Miss Suxing still has to live in Rongguo Mansion.
But I still have someone prepare the Imperial Master's Mansion. If Miss Su Xing doesn't want to live in Rongguo Mansion anymore, she can go to the Imperial Master's Mansion to relax for a while."
Su Xing nodded: "Your Majesty is thoughtful. By the way, I have to remind Your Majesty once more that inviting the Dragon God is a grand event, and probably half of the Qing Dynasty can see it.
Such a grand event will help Your Majesty win the hearts of the people, but at the same time, once recognized by the Dragon God, Your Majesty will no longer be just an emperor of a foreign race, but also an emperor of the Han people. Your Majesty must be prepared. "
Kangxi knew what Su Xing meant. Once he was recognized by the Dragon God, it would mean that countless Han people would return to him. Coupled with the policies he implemented, perhaps the Manchus and Han could really become one.
