There is a big problem with my harem [Qing Chuan]

Prince Kang tossed about the affairs of Taiwan Island, and personally led the warship to the port of Guangzhou Prefecture.Seeing the approach of Prince Kang's navy, the Western Fleet, which was eager to make a move in the open sea, immediately encircled it from all sides with malicious intentions.

It's just that they didn't expect the ferocity of the Qingshui Division, and they couldn't hold back the powerful artillery of the Qingshui Division. After knocking down three or four warships in a row, the remaining warships turned their heads and fled in fright!

Without the troubles of the Western warships, Prince Kang took control of the entire port of Guangzhou Prefecture at a very fast speed, prohibiting the entry and exit of any ships.

Shi Lang, the admiral of the Fujian Navy, also led a team to this place. After Prince Kang handed over the command to him, he went ashore to take over the opium incident in Guangzhou.

The situation in Guangzhou is much more serious than that in Beijing.

As the only port open to the outside world in the Qing Dynasty, this is where opium first invaded.In the past, there were smoke dens everywhere on the Flower Street, and all the people coming and going were yellow-faced, listless youths or middle-aged men,

Prince Kang led the people, and when they reached the street, they could smell an extremely strong smell of fireworks that made people feel dry mouth and throat pain.As a dignitary, Prince Kang naturally has a good understanding of the popular "fushou cream" these years, but he has been exercising all the year round as a warrior and has never liked smoking opium.

Thinking that many Eight Banners children in the capital, the descendants of the royal family were infected with this poison, and when they were forced to quit, Prince Kang couldn't hide the anger in his heart, and immediately shouted angrily: "Come here—! All the opium dens on the street will be sealed up, and all account books will be moved out!"

"Yes!" These soldiers skillfully took out their masks and wrapped them around their faces, and quickly rushed into Huajie in several waves.

Although this street is not long, it is the most profitable place in Guangzhou Prefecture.The low-priced opium is repackaged here and turned into small pieces of rare "Fushou Gao" sold in high-grade wooden boxes. Some people call it "Xianren Tiao", which means that even gods cannot resist it Live its magic!

What surprised Prince Kang was that these smoke dens looked inconspicuous from the outside, and it was even suspected that the news leaked that there was no one there. Only when you entered, would you find that the business of each smoke den was extremely good!

Even though it is blue sky and daylight now, every room is full of lazy smokers, smoking drugs deeply and improperly, and they don't notice any soldiers pouring into the smoke den.

The only ones who want to resist are the stewards and servants, but they have been in these smoke dens for many years, and their health is not as good as those of the smokers. on the ground.

The speed is unbelievable, and what is even more crazy is that when these smokers were dragged out one by one by the soldiers, they were still holding their beloved big smoking guns, as if nothing in this world could impress them up!

Prince Kang's left hand is Fu Lun, and his right hand is Nalan Xingde. The three walked into the flower street with expressionless faces.

The Flower Street is now in chaos. The old bustards of the surviving brothels secretly opened the doors and looked out. All the brothels with sales have also been smashed open, and many people were dragged out on the street waiting to be dealt with. , and the smoke hall even tied up countless people with ropes, forming a long chain and following behind.

Prince Kang lifted the curtain and walked into a smoking den. There was no need for anyone to manage it, as long as the steward and the servants were arrested, and the rest of the smokers only had to be arrested one by one in order, and they would not resist at all.

Nalan Xingde's face was very heavy, he pushed open the door of the room inside, only to see someone lying on the bed motionless, even smoking would require a small servant boy to kneel on the ground, holding a cigarette in both hands The gun was sent forward.

Even if someone opened the door, he didn't bother to open his eyes to take a look, and the next moment he fell into a dream again.

And the Datong shop outside is even worse. If such a person is dragged away, as long as they don't arrest themselves, as long as they don't take the pipe away, everyone will look indifferent and let these officers and soldiers move casually.

There were bursts of cold sweat on Prince Kang's back.

If it goes on for a long time, then...are there any soldiers who can fight?

According to Kangxi's instructions, he put these smokers in prison cars and dragged them to the square in the center of the city of Guangzhou. He ordered the soldiers to give them water and food regularly and leave them alone.

Quite a few uninformed people were discussing, looking strangely at these well-dressed nobles locked in the prison van, their faces full of doubts.There were also families and relatives of these nobles who came to the yamen to cry, and were directly kicked out by the soldiers!

And more and more businesses were arrested, and boxes of opium seized filled the entire square.

The common people in Guangzhou City panicked. What is surprising is that even the governor of Guangzhou Mansion was placed in the center of the prison car... What is going on?

One hour, two hours.

After twelve hours, the uneasy restlessness of the people in these prison cars also began!

Prince Kang ignored the reaction of the people in the prison car - these people were completely useless in his eyes, and had no value in existence.

The only remaining value of them now is to serve as representatives to let those who have not yet been contaminated with opium know what the hell this drug is!On the other hand, he was completely involved in dealing with merchants and officials who colluded with foreigners.

As time went on, the madness of the people in the prison van and the notices posted everywhere in the city let people in the entire Guangzhou know the true face of the 'fushou cream' and what kind of intentions those foreigners had for coming here. mainland!

Among the outraged crowd, many children from official families even wrote to Prince Kang, hoping that Prince Kang could persuade the emperor to close the port of Guangzhou Port, stop shipping, and strictly prohibit those foreigners from entering the Qing Dynasty again to cause disaster!

What a joke! ?

Kangxi, who received the news in the capital, almost wanted to file a case against him!

This group of students is so 'smart' that they even figured out what to do behind closed doors!The most speechless thing is that many people in the imperial court have made this suggestion. Kangxi smiled at the court meeting, but he wrote down the names of these people one by one in his heart.

It's not too late to settle accounts after autumn!

The bosses of these foreign goods firms finally realized that the situation was not right!As the drug addicts showed crazy deeds, they became anxious and secretly regretted it.

What's the use?Drugs -- after opium brought them immeasurable wealth, it also brought them destruction!

All over the country, these business firms that were recorded by Kangxi on the roster, foreigners without exception suffered from the attack from the imperial court.

With the destruction of boxes of drugs, there were suddenly a lot of homeless people described as crazy on the streets of Guangzhou and its surrounding areas, and near the capital. They were all victims of drugs without exception.

The servants were very busy. For this reason, Kangxi also built a new building called "abstinence center" in major cities, and the prefects were responsible for the withdrawal treatment of these drug addicts.

After the mother and son of the Xue family were released, the bad news they got was: the royal merchant Xia's family, who had made a marriage agreement, had their house confiscated and they were locked in a prison waiting to be dealt with.

Guangdong Xue's firm was also raided, and most of the stores involved in the capital were also seized. The only good thing is that the three people were verified not to be involved in opium trafficking, and they were released after confirming that they had no addiction.

Xue Pan was lucky. Although he loved to gamble and have fun, he had no interest in smoking opium. On the contrary, he got seven or eight out of ten out of ten friends!

Too busy to take care of herself, and even a handful of family money left, Mrs. Xue had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to Wang Ziteng's mansion.

Although Mrs. Wang Ziteng was not happy in every way, she still took in Xue's mother and son. As soon as Wang Ziteng returned to the mansion that night, he asked someone to invite Mrs. Xue, mother and son to the study.

"Master, Second Aunt, Young Master Biao, and Miss Biao have arrived." An old servant knocked on the door three times and reported respectfully outside the door.

"Please come in." Prince Teng said without looking up.

Mrs. Xue and the three stood in front of the desk with some anxiety, and the atmosphere in the study was very stagnant.Wang Ziteng dealt with the palace affairs on his own, and he didn't know how long it took before he looked up tiredly, put the pen on the shelf, and stretched a long way.

"Xue Pan."

"My nephew is here." Xue Pan was still quite afraid of Wang Ziteng.He straightened his back obediently and took a step forward obediently.

"Two months later is the entrance exam for the Central Academy. In these two months, I will ask my master to help you make up lessons. If you fail the exam, you can join the army directly. Don't think about anything else in the future." Wang Ziteng spoke directly, hesitating at the slightest opportunity Nor did he intend to give it to Xue Pan.

Xue Pan's complexion changed, and he stammered: "Uncle...it's not Pan'er, I don't want to learn, but this thing about reading..."

"Did you study at Jia's Academy before?" Wang Ziteng snorted coldly, got up and walked around Xue Pan, "Let me tell you, Jia Huan, the second room of the Rongguo Mansion, will also refer to it this time. But you can't pass the exam...Hmph!"

The last word was full of murderous intent, Xue Pan felt his legs tremble and his face turned blue.

"Jia Huan from the second room?" Xue Baochai was taken aback, "What about Baoyu?"

Wang Ziteng raised his head, glanced at her and sneered, "He, since he can't see people who are motivated by studies, what school should he go to?"

Xue Baochai bit her lips tightly with her white teeth, and there was a grievance in her eyes that couldn't be shaken off.

"Don't blame uncle, I said too seriously!" Wang Ziteng said to the three of them in a deep voice, "Pan'er, you were born as a merchant and didn't even have the qualifications for the imperial examination! Now that the emperor is so powerful, the descendants of the merchant are also You can also become an official. Baochai, you are handsome and talented, but you are far behind other girls in choosing a son-in-law! What is the reason for this?"

Wang Ziteng slapped Xue Pan heavily on the shoulder: "As a man of the Xue family, take some responsibility!"

Xue Pan clenched his hands into fists, blushing a little on his cheeks, and responded with a muffled voice.

"Yes, nephew knows!"

After dismissing Xue Pan, Wang Ziteng's eyes fell on Xue Baochai and Mrs. Xue again.Wang Ziteng looked directly at the two quietly, his eyes were sharp and clear, and the two of them felt a little uneasy when they were caught in such a gaze.

"Baochai."

"My niece is here." Xue Baochai trembled and said softly.

"I have a place to go here..."

……

In the autumn of the 21st year of Kangxi.

After more than a year of comprehensive treatment, this year's autumn vegetable market was full of blood, and the number of people who fell to the ground was countless. There were hundreds of households who were sentenced to exile for the whole family!

In order to prevent people from repeating the same mistakes for shocking benefits, Kangxi strictly ordered the Ministry of Punishment to punish them severely, with the intention of killing chickens and monkeys!

So far, all opium smugglers in the Qing Dynasty have been wiped out.

From the beginning of the 22nd year of Kangxi, the imperial court formally ordered that opium should be used by a fixed number of people, and it was stipulated that it could only be sold and used in the medical hall, and that the amount should be submitted regularly to facilitate inspection by government offices.

Anyone who secretly smuggles or sells opium, who knows how to keep it without sharing the spoils, regardless of the number of people, the leader will be fined 1 taels with a stick of one hundred sticks and three thousand miles; , a fine of 5000 taels.Those who do not know the neighbors will be fined 100 taels of [-] rods.

Anyone who smokes or uses opium without a medical certificate, ordinary people, one hundred sticks, sent to the rehabilitation center for forced treatment, and won fame, will not be allowed to become an official; Forcibly treated and expelled from the clan.

As soon as this order came out, the whole world trembled with fear, and suddenly heard the name of opium and changed color!

Although Kangxi not only rejected the appeal to close Guangzhou Port, but also requested to open shipping ports in the Yingkou area of ​​the Liaodong Peninsula, Dalini in the Tongliao area, Jiaoao in Jinan Prefecture, and Dinghai in Zhejiang Province. As well as the import and export policies of the five major ports in Taiwan and Hong Kong, but the control of the Yi people has also reached the highest point in history.

Anyone who does not enter or leave the Qing Dynasty through the port of the Shipping Department can be directly detained and dealt with according to the law. Anyone who enters and exits the Qing Dynasty through the port of the Shipping Department must carry a tooth card with him, and must be registered in the roster in each local government in time when he stays in various places.

The identity card needs to clearly include Qingyi people's hair color, eye color, body shape and appearance characteristics, national nationality and other information to prevent false identification.

For this reason, even though many courtiers expressed different questions, Kangxi still made a firm announcement.

It is better to be blocked than to be sparse, even in sea transportation.Is it possible that if these barbarians are not allowed to come and trade, will there really be no merchants who dare not sneak out to sea?

Even though the previous Emperor Yongzheng chose to ban Catholicism, Qianlong began to remove Guangzhou Port and blockade other ports for Western trade, and officially began to close the country, the Western things that should have been in the Qing Dynasty have not been cut off.

It would be better to control the barbarians within a certain controllable range. On the other hand, Kangxi ordered Prince Yu Fuquan, Wang Ziteng, Suo'etu and Mingzhu to jointly take charge of speeding up the construction of the navy.

It even ordered the naval forces stationed in Taiwan and Fujian to dispatch personnel to patrol the waterways of Champa, Siam, Chenla, Managa, Tanni, the Netherlands, Luzon, Japan, Sulu, and Ryukyu in turn. The normal operation of the Qing merchant ships.

The merciless attacks on the pirate ships who did not know good or bad and repeatedly invaded until the spring of the 23rd year of Kangxi, the waterway finally became calm.

The Yi people finally discovered that the guns and cannons of the Qingshui Division were far more powerful than them. Suddenly, countless people from major ports applied to enter the Qing Dynasty to study and trade.

At this point, Kangxi finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the end of the summer of 23 years, looking at the empress dowager who was getting older, he finally regained his mind.After several years of absence, I decided to visit Shengjing.

Originally, there was a plan to go on tour before the earthquake, but this procrastination actually dragged on for five full years.

The Queen's body has been a little weak these past few years, probably due to the sequelae of the injury. This year, she always lay down and rested in bed for three or four months, and now it happened to be the end of summer and early autumn, and the Queen wanted to go, but Kangxi was not at ease. Woolen cloth!

The queen didn't go, the other concubines thought about it one after another, and excitedly went to the Cining Palace, the Ciren Palace and the Queen's Jingren Palace to sit for a while, just wanting to get a little favor and follow the emperor to go out of the palace.

In the past few years, the harem has not experienced any disturbances.After the draft, Kangxi only selected some people for the clan and princes, and none of them entered the harem.

No one enters the harem, and no newcomers are favored. The old people are always these few people.The feng shui took turns, the former favorite concubine Yifei was no longer able to get ahead in the palace, and now the most favored concubine is Shu Concubine of Yonghe Palace.

The sixth elder brother Yinmi was valued by Kangxi after Concubine Tong's death, and Concubine Shu relied on this, either giving her handmade purse, a cup of sweet soup, or reading with the sixth elder brother For the matter, invite Kangxi to sit in the Yonghe Palace for a while.

On this day, another cup of soup was delivered to Kangxi. Kangxi glanced at it twice, and a trace of boredom flashed in his eyes: "This Concubine Shu is going around, but I don't know how to change it!"

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand to Liang Jiugong and the others and said, "Take it, and drink it for you!"

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness!" Liang Jiugong nodded with a smile, carried the soup to the tea room and told a few young eunuchs, "You guys have a drink."

Several young eunuchs looked at the soup and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Grandpa Liang, no matter how much the emperor likes to drink, Empress Concubine Shu sent it down for several months in a row. Not to mention the emperor, even the servants are watching..."

"What are you talking about? This is the kindness of Empress Concubine Shu." Liang Jiugong glared at them, turned around and returned to the palace to serve.

The little eunuch in the respect room happened to come up with a tray, and looking at the names inside, Kangxi thought about it: "Go to the queen today..."

"Yes, the emperor drove Jingren Palace." Liang Jiugong skillfully turned his voice to the outside.In the past few years, he could see clearly that the emperor had changed back and forth, and in the end he still hanged himself by the queen's rope.However, the queen's health is not good, and pregnancy is like a fairy tale. She treats the prince Yinreng more kindly, and she looks like a mother who is kind and filial.

Kangxi was naturally happy to see the success, and Liang Jiugong had been used to it for the past few years, but today when he entered Jingren Palace, the empress waited for him outside the palace gate with a straight face.

"The concubine pays respects to the emperor!"

"...What's wrong with the empress?" Kangxi was taken aback, and hurriedly held her little hand with a playful smile, "Where did I offend the empress, and I also gave the little one a chance to judge?"

"Long Live Lord!" The queen gave a coquettish voice, dragged him into the room and waved away most of the palace people, leaving only a few cronies.

"What's going on here?"
