[Qing] If you don't work hard, you will be forced to inherit the throne

Kangxi was sitting on the big boat, and the journey was boring, so he sent his entourage to fish together on the river. When the eunuch handed over the letter from the prince, the emperor accepted it with a smile on his face and looked at it in a good mood.

He could even imagine Baocheng's expression when he wrote the letter. The attachment of his son made the old father both loving and helpless. He hoped that he would grow up quickly and become an excellent adult, but he also hoped that he would grow up slowly. How happy to enjoy a period of childhood under the wings of

Kangxi himself did not have a relaxed and happy childhood, but he hoped that his beloved son could experience the happy childhood with his father's caring care instead of him. Don't be stingy to give the best to the children, the prince's expenses sometimes even exceed the emperor's own expenses, any decoration in Yuqing Palace is taken out from Kangxi's warehouse, and the best ones are used by the prince Even if Yinfeng doesn't understand their value.

Yinfeng: My son-in-law read Khan Ama's family letter happily at his desk, and his heart of missing the emperor's father is like a surging river, which stretches endlessly.During the day, I have the official business of the capital, and I don’t think about other things. When I am alone at night, I miss you even more. I don’t see Khan Ama for a day, and I miss you like three autumns.The son-in-law followed the teachings of Khan Ama without any slack, and the calligraphy he practiced can be as high as a pile of steps.Day after day, I did not see Ama Khan come back, how tormented to miss you, if Ama Khan can write down a few pages of big characters and give it to my son, when I miss you, I can imitate your handwriting for comfort.

What a touching sentence, what a touching words of homesickness, Kangxi didn't think it was so nasty, he was moved by the child's sincere emotion!

It's just that as I read this letter, I always feel that there is something weird?

Yinfeng: The days when Khan Ama is not around are like a long night, but no matter how long the night is, the day will always come.Ah~ Erchen is like someone who is looking forward to the people, waiting for the return of Khan Ama, you are as moving as the sun...

Kangxi thought about it, and it seemed that there was nothing wrong with his son's praise of being as dazzling as the sun. It was the aria that made people get goosebumps, and the style of writing suddenly changed.

Kangxi wrote several pages of large characters to fulfill Yinreng's wish, and untied the jade belt he had worn, and wrote back: I also sent this jade belt that I wore to Baocheng. When Baocheng missed me , just wear my jade belt!

When Yinrong received the reply, he was dumbfounded.

Yinfeng: Why does Gu always feel as if he has lost somewhere?

【…】

Yinfeng sighed: "Gu thought that what I wrote was already disgusting enough, but I didn't expect Khan Ama to be even more disgusting than Gu."

He said that he disliked Kangxi's grotesqueness, but in fact he was happy in his heart.This is the first time he has been separated from Khan Ama for such a long time since he was a child, and he can get his father's feedback for his love for his family, and he feels that Khan Ama also attaches great importance to himself, and his mood is almost floating with joy .

He touched the jade belt fondly: "Nurse Xu, change this jade belt to a length that Gu can wear."

Mother Xu took it with a smile, and saw that each section of the jade belt can be removed and adjusted, and there is a live buckle in the middle that can control the length, while the largest piece of decorative jade placed in the middle cannot be removed, and the two sides are piled up in rows. Enough.

In ancient times, the jade belt existed as a girdle, but in the former dynasty, the jade belt was not used as a girdle, but only as a symbol of grade and status. This old custom was directly abolished in the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty did not pay attention to it. The jade belt shows the identity, but the jade belt still exists as a decoration, and wearing it can show the nobility. Therefore, when Madam Xu changed it, she didn't pay so much attention. She only changed it according to Yinfeng's waist, and it can be used as a decoration to hang Just go with it.

Yinfeng: Zhennahan Ama can't do anything, he's too sticky.When he came back, Gu would wear this jade belt to pick him up.

Kangxi's letters were sticky, Yinreng followed this tune and could only use more sticky words.

After going back and forth, there were as many as ten letters between the father and son in this day's family. From the beginning, I received letters every two days, and then I received them in the longest ten days, and then gradually recovered. It took five days to receive it, and during the exchange of letters, it can be inferred that the sweating Ama has gone to the farthest place and is on the way back.

Yinreng counted how many days until Khan Ama would go home with his fingers. While missing his father, he also had some small thoughts of his own. Like most of the freed children, he hadn't played enough. Of course, he was looking forward to Khan Ama. Ma will be back later.

"The imperial decree came from Khan Ama. He said that the research institute should send people to the firearms camp to concentrate on researching guns, because the protection level of the research institute is not as good as that of the firearms camp, and it is not safe enough, and there are heavy soldiers in the firearms camp."

The secret recipe had been leaked in the research institute before, causing Gao Shiqi to get into trouble. For important things like guns, the Firearms Camp is the most reassuring.

Cao Zhen was a little worried: "Your Highness, the emperor has transferred all your staff away, so there will be no one in your hands? Can Master Chen take the research institute back to your hands when he comes back?"

Yinfeng: "I don't do these things for my own selfish desires, why should I divide you and me with Khan Ama, it doesn't matter whether the research institute is in the hands of Khan Ama or Gu, besides, the hair in Khan Ama's hands...cough Cough, more, he will only give to lonely people, so he won't take away lonely people!"

He almost slipped the word "donkey" out of his mouth, and managed to come around.

Cao Zhen suddenly realized: "It turns out that Your Highness does not plan to cultivate your own contacts, but waits for the emperor to give you contacts."

This demeanor of advancing and retreating is wonderful!

Yinfeng nodded seriously, and he asked Cao Zhen again: "How is your father doing in Jiangning now?"

Cao Zhen said helplessly: "Grandpa is seriously ill, and Dad is busy taking care of his illness. He must be very busy under the emperor's order to take care of Jiang Ning's weaving for grandfather, and he hasn't given me any news."

Cao Xi has been in good and bad health since he contracted the wind and cold in winter. It seems that he has a tendency to become seriously ill. Weaving.

"Looking at the memorials recently, I found that many officials asked Khan Ama to borrow money. After Khan Ama toured south this year, all such memorials were piled up here," Yinfeng couldn't help muttering: "The life of officials is so hard. Do you want to ask Han Ama to borrow money to live? This is still the account of the Ministry of Accounts, and it is borrowed from the national treasury!"

"It was indeed difficult in the past few years, but in recent years, the imperial court has increased the salaries of the ministers, but if you want to be in the officialdom, you must manage something. It is difficult to do things without money."

Cao Zhen made a gesture: "My father also asked the emperor to borrow money, but the borrowed money is used to make money for the emperor, and our family is dispatched to help the emperor's internal affairs to make money."

Yinfeng didn't know much about the money of the household department, and he had never been to the household department.

"Gu always thinks it's wrong to ask the treasury to borrow money. The treasury is for the people to pay taxes. It's no problem to use the money for construction and research. It can be used to lend to officials. It feels weird."

"The matter of borrowing money is the emperor's favor, and it happened a few years ago!"

Yinfeng was still worried: "No, I have to ask my fourth brother what's going on."

Cao Zhen was very puzzled: "The fourth elder brother is really so smart that His Highness would even ask him such a thing? Could it be that the fourth elder brother was also taught by an immortal and knew it from birth?"

"Xiao Si is not taught by an immortal, but he is the younger brother of Gu Jiao, so he will discuss with him about everything. He can understand Gu's words and can give him ideas."

Cao Zhen came to a sudden: As expected of my elder brothers, none of them are stupid. It seems that the fourth elder brother is the kind of natural child prodigy, who can give His Highness advice, how smart must he be? !

Thinking about it this way, Cao Zhen couldn't help admiring Yinzhen, who was valued by Yinreng without showing off.

According to the usual practice, Yinreng approved the memorials for borrowing money and handed them over to the cabinet, and he took Cao Zhen to find Yinzhen himself.

After hearing this, Xu Zhen was so excited that he didn't even want the goat's milk in his hand. He slammed the small goat's milk cup on the table with a bang, and the goat's milk spilled out immediately.

"Does the Ministry of Households seem to have started to borrow money after looking for it like that?!"

Yinzhen's eyes were red, and when he opened his mouth to speak, his front teeth were exposed.

Yinreng heard that he pronounced the word "is" as "like" and the word "zao" as "find", and felt something was wrong. After a careful look, he was immediately happy: "When did the fourth brother lose a front tooth?! "

When mentioning this matter, Yin Zhen became angry. His front tooth was injured when he bit Yin Reng before, and later he found out that the root of the tooth was broken. Within a few days, the front tooth started to dangle, and he managed to hold on. This morning, it finally fell off.

Yin Zhen became angry from embarrassment: "If it falls off, it can grow again. I haven't changed my teeth yet!"

This way of speaking leaked out, which made Yinreng empathize with him, as if he had instantly returned to the time when he just changed his front teeth a few years ago, and his mood improved.

Yinfeng hurriedly comforted Yinzhen, and touched the top of his head along the smooth and shiny forehead: "Yes, new teeth will grow out after you change your teeth. This is just a trivial matter, don't take it to heart."

Yinzhen snorted coldly, closed his eyes sadly, and began to think quietly.

Suddenly, he said with a serious face: "We must stop officials from continuing to borrow money from the Ministry of Household Affairs."

Yinfeng was stunned for a moment: "That's right, it's not a problem to borrow money from the treasury. Khan Ama wants to offer grace, so he should borrow money from the Ministry of Internal Affairs." Borrowing money, there is borrowing and repayment, the officials have written IOUs, when you are an official in the court, you always want to save face. Judging from the morality of officials, they will not default on their debts, right?

When he said these rich and powerful words, it was as if he was saying to Yinzhen, "Why don't you eat minced meat?" Yinzhen, who was so angry that he lost a front tooth, gasped for breath.

"Officials borrowing money from Khan Ama will only become a bigger and bigger hole. You know that this kind of thing will continue for decades, and the debt will almost bring down the national treasury! The original record of 200 million taels of silver in the treasury, It's just that someone borrowed 1000 million taels!"

Yinfeng: "It's so serious!"

Yinzhen said seriously: "This matter is related to the state system. The second brother of the prince must do his best to prevent Han Ama from lending money to others. Otherwise, once the time is delayed, they will refuse to accept the debt, and it will be even more troublesome to pursue it."

Yinfeng: "They are all famous high-ranking officials, how could they not admit it?"

"There is a saying called 'the law does not blame the public'," Yinzhen complained a lot when he mentioned the thankless things that happened to him at the beginning, although it was a thing in the past in the previous life, but he When I think of the hardships I suffered, offended those people, and how many criticisms and grievances I received, I feel uneasy.

And the prince in front of him was also a borrower in his last life, and he borrowed a lot of money.Each of the brothers borrowed it, and Yinzhen himself borrowed it, but when he paid back the money, he didn't know how many brothers he offended!

Yinzhen said: "Things that are difficult to do after decades, may be easier to do now. If the second brother of the prince is willing, I can also give you advice on these things."

Yinzhen took this matter very seriously, and seeing the seriousness of the matter, Yinfeng laughed dumbly: "If it's really a big deal, just stop letting the household department continue to borrow money. There are so many twists and turns."

"You don't understand. If you directly refuse them to borrow money, wouldn't you be ruining your benevolent reputation?" Yinzhen frowned and said, "I advise you to not do that."

"It has nothing to do with Gu's reputation to prevent the Ministry of Households from borrowing money. The money of the Ministry of Accounts is the money of the treasury." , just ask Gu Lai to borrow it."

Yin Mo: "...you are really rich and powerful."

This simple and crude method really cut off the possibility of officials asking the Ministry of Households to borrow money from the root.

"Ask the state treasury to borrow money as everyone's default thing, which is very strange. The state treasury is neither Khan Ama's, nor is it lonely, it belongs to the Qing Dynasty, and the Qing Dynasty did not agree to lend money to officials," said Yin Reng Shaking his head, he immediately issued an order to the cabinet: Who are the officials who asked the Ministry of Households to borrow money before?Let them send the IOU to Gu, and Gu will lend them money.

Yinzhen's face wrinkled into a little bun: "Aren't you afraid that the money will never come back?"

"Gu is young, who can really go down and borrow it, will you pay the debt if you borrow it?"

Yin Mo: "You overestimated their virtue."

You know, some people are just so shameless.

Yinfeng was full of confidence and tough, so he said as a matter of course: "Oh, then let Khan Ama collect the debts for Gu!"

Yinzhen thought about the picture of Khan Ama asking the courtiers to collect debts for the prince...

In the previous life, he collected debts for Khan Ama. In this life, he is expected to see Khan Ama collect debts for the prince. It feels really different.

Yin Mo faintly looked forward to it.

The author has something to say: Feel the crooked letter written by Kangxi to Yinreng. The following content is from Yinreng’s textual research and entered by Zhu Lian. Ding, Galdan fled, and our army was chasing after him. At this time, the teacher returned, and he was happy all the way. I couldn't help but miss the prince. How can I let go. It is hot today. Put the cotton clothes, gauze clothes, cotton clothes you are wearing Bring four pieces of Gebu robes (etc.) and four gowns. Be sure to choose the ones you wear, so that the emperor will wear them when he misses you." I can't help but burst into tears, I can't help myself." According to the requirements of the emperor's father, he carefully selected several autumn-colored cotton gauze robes from the clothes he was wearing, and sent someone to give them to the emperor.At the beginning of June, in Nuohaishuo outside the mouth, Kangxi wore the prince's clothes to meet the prince who came to greet him.Each other is overjoyed.
