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

Yinfeng thought that Khan Ama would immediately take him to the Qianqing Gate to go to the morning court, but he didn't know that it was the "preparation" time for the morning court, and the ministers had just entered the Forbidden City, and it would take a while before they lined up neatly to be called into the palace!

During this period of time, Kangxi first took Yinfeng to pay his respects to the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager in good spirits, and then drove to the Qianqing Palace to enter the early court time.

As far as Yinfeng knows, the court meetings in the Qing Dynasty were divided into "Li Dynasty" and "Zheng Dynasty". "There is another nice name in the historian's pen, called "Yumen Tingzheng".

The coexistence of the system of deliberative kings and ministers dealing with government affairs and the cabinet system has continued since the founding of the Qing Dynasty until now. During the reign of the first emperor, the positions of the cabinet ministers were divided, and the Northern and Southern Han people were appointed to participate in the cabinet system regardless of the nobles of the Qing Dynasty. The cabinet in Ma's hands has been divided into a scale that includes both Manchen and Hanchen.

The Qing Dynasty followed the Ming Dynasty, and the former emperor had not been in court for decades, but he was still able to make the state affairs run smoothly, relying on the "omnipotence" of the cabinet position.

[During the Ming Dynasty, the emperors went to the "Yumen to listen to politics" every few days. In the period of the first emperor, they also went to the Qianqingmen to listen to politics every five days. As a result, when they came to the children's father, they became "Yumen" every day. listen to politics". ] Xiaomei has absorbed a lot of information from ancient times to the present. When he popularized science for Yinfeng, it was full of pictures and texts, and he also marked the job assignments of the ministers. Such a high-end intelligent recognition system is like touching the court for the first time. It is very practical for Yinfeng, who has crossed the river blindly, to assist.

Xiaomei told Yinfeng cheerfully.

[The child's father is a hardworking emperor, studying every day in front of the court, and he can still give birth to so many sons, he is the Emperor of the Liver! 】As he was talking, the system said that his mouth was crooked. It braked in time and closed its tiger mouth. It looked at Yinfeng with lingering fear, and found that the child's attention was attracted by his father. He was relieved and jumped happily Take a few steps to the highest point of Qianqing Gate to see the scene of the ancient emperor going to court.

Kangxi personally received Yinfeng to the gate of Qianqing. This was the first time in the history of the Qing Dynasty that the emperor personally brought Yinreng to the court. It is probably because Kangxi has set many precedents so far. One person stood up against it.

The emperor sat on the upper seat of the Qianqing Gate, and under the imperial seat there was a regular seat for the prince. The special man brought a stool for Yinfeng to sit on. During the court meeting, the emperor did not interrupt the eight-year-old prince and his officials. Stand together below.

The emperor's throne is in the middle, and there are eunuchs serving on the imperial side. There is a stool for Yinfeng on the left side of the throne, and there are three steps down, and there are two eunuchs on the left and right below. four people.

Yinreng is small, sitting at the height of a thousand-year-old three steps high, his sight is blocked by the vase in front of him, if he wants to see what the ministers below look like, he has to stretch his neck to see, and Yinreng obviously I can't do something that escapes like this.

When Kangxi was in court, he sat upright like a bell. He glanced at Yinreng's sitting posture as tall as himself, nodded with satisfaction, and signaled the ministers to start reporting today's political leaders.

"There is another war in the land of Longxing today, and the frontier has been sent 700 miles in a hurry. It is said that nearly 10 unnamed cavalry have come to burn, kill and loot the land of Longxing. Now the border generals are taking in the victims. According to the news, I have drafted an order that there will be wars on the border of Longxing. Add [-] reinforcements and [-] taels of military pay to General Ningguta and Shengjing Guard General, and the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Households will handle it, hereby."

Kangxi said: "The land of Longxing is an important place in the Northeast. The Ministry of Industry, the Ministry of Households, and the Ministry of Officials were selected to coordinate this matter and expand the border wall to resist foreign aggression."

"The minister obeys the order!"

"The Mongolian kings are invited to trade sugar and goat milk with the capital. The minister drafts an order to recruit the imperial merchants to do business for the court. The Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Household Affairs will handle this matter. I hereby."

Kangxi: "Yes."

"Zheng Jing is dead, and his son will not be able to achieve great things. General Shi Lang, please attack the Zheng family further, and ask for food and grass, ten thousand stones, and military pay of 50 taels. The minister drafted an order. Taiwan's decline has already appeared. If we step up to conquer it, we can take Taiwan as our country as soon as possible. .”

Kangxi: "Quite, add another [-] shi to the army, and no one will be hungry. The soldiers who are on the front line fighting for the Qing Dynasty."

"The minister obeys the order!"

Yinfeng suddenly realized: it turns out that not all government affairs require Khan Ama to find a way to arrange people to do it.

Think about it too, otherwise how busy Khan Ama would be?If Khan Ama has to make up his mind on everything, and what to do with the civil and military officials of the court, the emperor sits on the court, and only needs to say what is correct or not, or ask his officials to correct their mistakes, and say a few words about what is inappropriate It is clear that if you have any doubts, discuss it with the ministers. This is the root of the court's smooth and efficient implementation of administrative affairs.

[The child's father ordered every department to report publicly, so there are many people in the morning court, and the duration will be long. ] Yinfeng couldn't see the faces of the ministers, so Xiaomei projected them for him. At this time, I have to say that the system is just right!Xiaomei feels that she is also very useful, and she no longer has to worry about being rejected by the children because she is useless. Since she lost her credibility with the children because she was suppressed by the emperor's ruthless words, Baihu finally found her confidence again.

"Du Lide, a scholar of the Palace of Preserving Harmony, appealed to his old age and returned to his hometown on the grounds of his old age and recuperation. The minister drafted an order. I have read it and respect it."

When Yinreng heard Du Lide's request, he pricked up his ears to listen.

Kangxi said: "Du Lide is now 71 years old, he is really old, he has played twice so far to beg him to return to his hometown, this is the third time, that's all, let's play."

"The minister obeys the order!"

Therefore, because the grand master had previously returned home and Khan Ama refused to allow it, the courtiers did not dare to say "permitted" or "not allowed" when drawing up the imperial edict, and could only mark "read".

Yinfeng thought about how old the grand master Khan Ama would leave someone to work and compile books for him, secretly went to look at the general appearance of the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, and found that most of them were middle-aged people, and the closest neighbor of the imperial court A few of them were already graying at the temples, and suddenly sighed.

Another courtier said: "I have nothing to play today."

This look is muddled, Yinreng looked at the top of his head along the official position, it turned out to be "Censor", it is good to have nothing to play for the censor, if there is something to play, something big will happen.

Throughout the morning, courtiers reported issues ranging from border wars to capital sewage and drainage treatment. In addition, the east family was impeached for encroaching on land, and the west family was arrested for visiting brothels. I can't turn around anymore.

The drafting among the ministers was irregular, and everyone had a different focus. As soon as I followed the train of thought, Khan Ama had already dealt with it, and the next minister began to report again.

When all the ministers in the queue finished their reports, Yinfeng thought that there was nothing to do, but he didn't think that the real topic had just begun.The emperor pointed out all the people to make up for the matter of the ticket to be played just now, and discussed with the ministers.

Kangxi said again: "I chose Nalan Xingde as a special envoy to go to the border of Longxing to investigate, focusing on the movements of Tsarist Russia in the north."

"Du Lide was dismissed as a Bachelor of the Palace of Preservation, and Wang Xi, Minister of the Ministry of War, was transferred to a Bachelor of the Palace of Preservation and Minister of the Ministry of Rites."

[Wang Xi is a pure Han official. He is the son of Wang Chongjian, the Minister of Rites of the former dynasty. The talent went from a local official to a Beijing official, and was appreciated and promoted by the emperor all the way.When the first emperor left, he invited Wang Xilai to read the edict.] In short, this is a great man, and he had a great status in the first emperor's time. When he came to Khan Ama, Wang Xiguan paid homage to the University of Baohe Temple. Dian University scholar, the former Manchen was Suo'etu.

Sure enough, it was different in the presence of the prince. Kangxi ordered Suo'etu to resume the position of a bachelor of Baohedian to stand side by side with Wang Xi, and Nalan Mingzhu, who returned, was also a bachelor of Wuyingdian.

[Wang Xi used to work as a censor, and of course he treated the people with peace and kindness. He is a good minister who cares about the people. However, he thinks that Suo'etu is very arrogant. He has impeached Suo'etu before, and he has always been It's not pleasing to see him.The child's father asked Wang Xi to be a bachelor of Baohedian, and then transferred Mingzhu back, so Suo'etu would be miserable! ] When Xiaomei said it, it was as if she was watching a play. The situation she analyzed for Yinfeng was not wrong at all. You can see that Suo'etu was not happy after he was promoted to the University of Baohe Hall. I'm holding back for a while.

Yinfeng asked Xiaomei to quietly show Wang Xi's face for him: ah, he is already a grandfather who is at least 50 years old.

[According to him from the time of the first emperor to the present, he is almost normal at this age!Taking Dolittle as an example, Wang Xi can still work for the child's father for at least 20 years. 】Yinfeng managed to control his unbearable expression, and looked at the civil and military officials standing in front, none of them were young men, all the young men were lined up far behind, and the whole hall came to participate in the court meeting Apart from Yinreng himself, the youngest one is Khan Ama.

After the court meeting, Kangxi announced his next court, and returned to the Imperial Study Room of Qianqing Palace to process the memorials sent from various places that required the emperor to make a decision in person.

Kangxi asked Yinreng: "It's the first time to go to court today, what experience does Baocheng have?"

He didn't expect Yinfeng to understand the government affairs in one day, but he hoped to take him to read and learn first.In terms of the performance of the prince during his lectures, he may be smarter than Kangxi imagined.

"How did the fairy beast say about me?"

"It didn't say Khan Ama, it just told the ministers what the officials of those ministers do."

"Well," Kangxi responded, motioning for him to continue.

Yinfeng saw that there was no one else in the imperial study room, only Liang Jiugong was alone. Obviously Khan Ama did it on purpose, so he boldly started his nonsense: "Khan Ama, why is he in the court? The high-ranking ones are all 'old, weak, sick and disabled'?"

It is because he is always surrounded by old and serious officials that Khan Ama has decree lines at a young age, and he always scares people with a serious face, without the vigor of young people at all.

"If you dare to say the phrase 'old, weak, sick and disabled' to Dolittle, I will not punish you for talking nonsense." Kangxi had been numb by Yinfeng's many magical operations. He began to scare Yinfeng: "Which of the important ministers of the court and Chinese military has not been honed in the officialdom for many years and has qualifications and can convince the public before he is promoted?"

"If the officials are generally old, they won't be able to work hard," Yinfeng said in a low voice, "I see that most of the officials in the court come to the court with dark circles under their eyes."

Not everyone is as young and energetic as Khan Ama, who wakes up early every morning to work, and the elderly in their seventies and tenths can’t bear it. They still stand, and Khan Ama still sits.

Yinreng was worried about it, it was too early to prepare for court every day, so couldn't it be postponed later?

He looked at the sky, and Xiaomei told him that it was only ten o'clock.

"I'm asking you what you think about government affairs. You didn't listen carefully to the courtiers when you went to court, but just stared at their faces?" Kangxi sat the highest, but he didn't notice that Yinfeng's sight was blocked by the vase He thought about how the crown prince was staring at the faces of the courtiers, and he wondered what the senior scholars at the front would think.

When the emperor thought about the scene, he felt his forehead twitch.

"Ah, do you have any opinions on government affairs? The courtiers are very capable, and Khan Ama is also very powerful. What kind of opinions can the ministers say? You know more than the ministers. The problems to be solved, Khan Ama and the courtiers are all Discussion settled."

Yinfeng said that he came to listen in today and make a small decoration.

"I ascended the throne at the age of eight. When I first came to the court, I was anxious and uneasy. I still asked the emperor how to be an emperor. The emperor taught me to ask more, learn more, and ask thoroughly. No courtier would dare to laugh at me. As long as I ask humbly They, they will answer seriously. I can’t make an imperial decree before I take office at the age of 16. The papers presented by my courtiers are like the scene of going to court today. Now that you are eight years old and come to the court to listen to the government, do you have no doubts and no worries in your heart?"

Kangxi waited for Yinreng to ask him why, who knew that Yinreng didn't play cards according to common sense, but instead said that the ministers all had dark circles under their eyes, and he was almost outraged by his son's strange angle.

Kangxi stared at Yinfeng with a serious face: "Think about it carefully, ask carefully this time, I will give you another chance."

"Ah, what I don't understand," Yinreng saw that Khan Ama really wanted to answer his doubts, and Xiaomei explained all the incomprehensions in his heart, so he couldn't think of any questions to ask Khan at the moment. Ama, it's really sad.

"Khan Ama, since you've asked this question, I'll let you know that this question is actually asked by Xiaomei, who always has some weird ideas, Khan Ama, you can't blame me because of it. "

When Yinfeng said the word "Xiaomei", the voice disappeared automatically. Kangxi understood that the name of the fairy beast should not be called at will, and when he learned that the question was asked by the fairy beast, he said gently and kindly: "You say it."

"It wants to know how you managed to go to court early in the morning, deal with the memorials from various places, attend lectures in the afternoon, gather courtiers to discuss major issues in the evening, and still have so many sons in the evening?"
