The person who had also taken a fancy to this thing before frowned, grabbed the man's back collar, and said with displeasure: "You foreigner is so unreasonable. If you bid higher than me, the stall owner will also agree to the higher price." If you get it, I have nothing to say when I give it to you. Now you jump in the queue first and buy later, isn't it too much?"

It is human nature to like to watch the excitement, even the emperor is no exception, not to mention that foreigners are involved in this matter.Signaling the guards to hold the third and fourth elder brothers, he led the prince and the eldest elder brother and approached.

Kangxi had very good eyesight, and when he got closer, he realized that what the foreigner was holding was a porcelain vase. Judging by the pattern and color workmanship on it, it looked like blue and white porcelain from the Xuande period of the previous dynasty.Looking at the silver casually thrown on the ground, Kangxi felt that the Qing man was right, and that this foreigner was indeed too much.

Xuande blue-and-white porcelain has always been famous. He has several pieces in his hand, and the estimated price is not less than 1 taels of silver.If this piece in the hands of foreigners is real, it must be worth a lot of money; if it is a fake, it can sell for more than a hundred taels depending on the workmanship, and if someone likes it, it is possible to give it 500 taels.

Looking at the silver still on the ground by foreigners, there are at most two taels.

In a place where Kangxi could not see, the crown prince and the elder brother silently exchanged glances. The fourth elder brother reached out and tore off Kangxi's clothes, and said in a low voice: "Ama, is this man holding blue and white porcelain? I remember the teacher once said But, blue and white porcelain is very valuable, why did he give this little money? You see, the stall owner is about to cry."

The princes of the emperor have learned a lot, including the identification of porcelain, calligraphy and painting. Although the fourth prince is young, except for riding and shooting, he is considered a leader in other aspects.Besides, the blue and white porcelain is easy to recognize, not to mention the imperial concubine, several pieces can be found in the palace of the four concubines.

The stall owner was not well dressed, and his clothes were still patched, so he must be in urgent need of money to take out such an important thing.The fourth elder brother said that when he was about to cry, he was pleading with the foreigner, "You can't do this, Mr. Foreigner. I have already talked with this man over here. I will sell the bottle to him, so you can put it down. .This is a vase inherited from my ancestors, if it is not a last resort, who would be willing to sell it."

The foreigner didn't buy it, "I don't care if it's from your ancestors, but I paid for the bottle, and now it's mine." Of course he knew that the bottle was valuable, and he wouldn't grab it if it wasn't.It was a bit of a pity to look at the broken silver on the ground. If the archbishop hadn't clamored that Qing should not be able to pick out the reason, he would have to give money for "buying things", and he wouldn't want to give out this little silver.

"And you, where is the mouse meddling in other people's business? Believe it or not, I killed you with a foreign gun." Putting the porcelain vase in his arms, he patted his waist with one free hand, and Kangxi saw clearly that it was shining brightly. Hanging a firecracker.

Before the man got angry, the servant beside him quit, "Do you know who my master is? You really have the guts." He raised his head and looked around triumphantly, and said loudly, "My master is Kang Elder brother of the Prince's Mansion, Prince Kang, do you know that the emperor still calls him cousin in terms of seniority."

Kangxi looked at the young man carefully, and then said hesitantly, "This is Prince Kang's third son Zaltu, right?" The elder brother of Prince Kang's mansion impressed him most with Chuntai and Nitaha. The former is the only son of Prince Kang. Now that he is still studying in the study room, he has seen more and naturally has an impression; the latter is the eldest son of Prince Kang, who was just bestowed by him in the last draft.I can recognize him as Zhartu, apart from his age, but also because Jie Shu said that among his sons, Zhartu is the least worrying.

Eldest brother was also a little surprised, "It's the kid Zhartu." Mingzhu is fine, he just asked the other party to find someone, preferably someone with status, to act in a play, but he didn't expect him to involve Prince Kang in it up.I just don't know if this kid is reliable or not?

Unlike Kangxi, Zaertu is two years older than the elder brother, who is very familiar with him.In fact, he had recognized Zhartu long ago, and he would be surprised only if he recognized him.

Prince Kang?The foreigner hesitated for a moment, and looked down at the vase in his arms with a look of reluctance.A foreigner behind him whispered something in his ear, his eyes lit up, and he raised his head and poked his neck and said, "Prince Kang is amazing? Who knows if you are real or not. Last time, there was a man named Ma Jia Yes, claiming to be the cousin of the third elder brother, but after inquiring, it turns out that he is of the same family as the third elder brother's maternal ancestor's family. You said that you are the elder brother of Prince Kang's mansion, what evidence do you have?"

I was almost bluffed. Although Prince Kang is the iron hat king of the Qing Dynasty, he is the great-grandson of the founder of the country, and his relationship with the emperor has long been distant.He's not even afraid of elder brother Huang, but would he be afraid of a prince's son?

Unexpectedly, this person mentioned in public that he was also implicated in the Ma Jia clan, the third elder brother glared at the eldest elder brother's back.The eldest brother definitely did it on purpose, only the queen's natal family can be called the natal family of the elder brothers, and the Ma Jia family is not qualified to be called that.

Afraid that Huang Ama would cause trouble for the Ma Jia family in the future, the third elder brother hurriedly said: "Ama, my son has never called their grandfather, and the Ma Jia family has always been honest, so they dare not be so presumptuous to the outside world. Emperor Ama Mingcha."

"I still know the character of Gaishan's family." Concubine Rong has been in the palace for many years, even when she was the most favored, she was still very well-behaved. It is conceivable that Gaishan's character can raise a daughter like Concubine Rong. "However, what about the Ma Jia family he mentioned, do you know, third child?"

"My son knows," the third elder brother told Kangxi without any concealment.He knew in his heart that Huang Ama would definitely investigate after the incident, and it was useless for him to conceal it, so he might as well say it now.Anyway, both he and Gaishan's family are honest, they are not afraid of investigation.

Kangxi nodded as he listened, "You've done a good job. Life is better now than before, and moths will increase accordingly. Indeed, only strict measures can deter them." It's always him most disgusting.

Not wanting Kangxi to cling to the matter of the third elder brother, the fourth elder brother opened his curious eyes and asked him, "Ama, what do you think will happen to this foreigner? Didn't Nanda people say that foreigners are very well-behaved? They like the life in Qing Dynasty .Why can't they abide by the laws of my Qing Dynasty, and instead act recklessly, aren't they afraid of being sent back?"

The fourth elder brother turned into a curious baby, his voice was not low, and many people standing near Kangxi heard it.

The capital city is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and there are many bannermen, no one is surprised to hear him call Ama.One of them may have been victimized by foreigners, and he snorted coldly when he heard this: "As soon as you hear this, you know that the young master is either rich or noble. If a foreigner can abide by the laws of my Qing Dynasty, he will not be called a foreigner."

"That's right. The one in front is the nephew of the foreign archbishop. He has something to do with him. Who dares to do anything to him? This is not the first time this has happened. It is said that he has beaten someone to death because of his ancestral Don't give him the baby. You see, he is still alive and kicking. If you want me to say that the stall owner is unlucky today, if it were me, I would hurry up and leave with this little money, rather than throwing my life here."

"You said it lightly. I know this stall owner. He has been setting up a stall here for several days. It is said that the old lady at home is sick and needs money to save her life. Before someone offered 100 taels to buy his bottle, he didn't sell it." The speaker had also set up a stall before, and happened to have heard about it, so he just used it to show off at this time.

Yin was curious and Baby Zhen said again: "I don't think he is dressed like a rich man. 100 taels is not a small amount. Why didn't he sell it? Didn't he say he needed money to save his life?" 100 taels may be cheap, but if it is life-saving , many people will let go.

The man sighed, "It's a lot, but compared to his mother's illness, it's a drop in the bucket. I heard that the medicine prescribed by the doctor contains very precious medicinal materials. A medicine costs several taels of silver, and you have to take it continuously for more than half a year. He doesn't have much ability himself, he just makes a living by farming. Tell me, where can he get so much money other than selling this bottle."

Yinzhen was silent, if Huang Ama hadn't been present, he really wanted to ask his elder brother where did he find these people, he almost took it seriously.

A few people explained the confusion to Kangxi and his group, seeing the foreigner over there touched the foreign gun again, Kangxi said in a deep voice: "Come on, go and take down that foreigner." Forget what Yinzhi said before, he After all, without seeing it with his own eyes, the person who suffers is not a good thing.Today this is Prince Kang's son. No matter what his son is, Prince Kang is a talent and has made a lot of contributions to the Qing Dynasty. He can't just watch the other party have trouble in front of him.

"Hey, my lord, you don't want to die. They don't even give face to Prince Kang's son. You are going to die. Forget it." Perhaps influenced by the elegant atmosphere of Liulichang, people here, regardless of buyers or sellers Both have good dispositions, and when they saw that Kangxi was going to intervene in this matter, they opened their mouths in fear of something happening to him.

Yinfeng said with a smile: "Don't worry, old man. Since I, Ama, said that I want to take care of it, I can take care of it. This is my Daqing territory. To put it bluntly, they are just a group of bereaved dogs who are oppressed in their own country. You can't hold your head up, so you ran to us to show off your power, do you think we are easy to bully?"

The elder brother also stood up and sang with the prince: "Yes, we should be strong when dealing with this kind of people, and tell them that there is no way to bully people in our territory. They dare to be so arrogant in the face of the royal family, the common people I don’t know how much they have oppressed. The imperial city is like this, what is Guangzhou and Tianjin Wei like?”

He said this intentionally for Kangxi to listen to, the purpose is to attract Kangxi's attention, let him re-examine this group of foreigners, and see if they are worthy of the current treatment.

The two spoke in a loud voice, which naturally aroused the idea of ​​the foreigner. Just as the foreigner wanted to sarcastically say a few words, Zhaertu turned around and knelt down in fear, "My servant Zhaertu has seen the emperor and His Royal Highness, Big brother, third brother, fourth brother."

When he knelt down, Kangxi couldn't hide his identity completely.The fourth elder brother said unhappily: "Oh, why are you so stupid, don't you see that we are wearing ordinary clothes?"

"Ah?" Zhartu's face turned pale. He didn't think about it so much at all. Seeing the emperor salute was purely a subconscious reaction.Will the emperor punish him for this?

Kangxi wasn't displeased when his identity was revealed. From the moment he decided to take care of this matter, he planned to disclose his identity.Walking in front of the stunned foreigner, he kicked him, "You foreigners are really bold. You snatched other people's ancestral treasures first, and now you still want Mu Cang to kill the elder brother of the clan. I'd like to send someone to ask the archbishop , this is what he called 'missionary, friendly exchanges'?"

The man was kicked and staggered, his first reaction was not to be afraid, but to touch the wooden warehouse and hit someone.

The prince and elder brother stepped forward at the same time. They wanted to beat someone up, but someone was faster than them. Those guards directly broke the foreigner's wrist, and they brought the firecrackers to Kangxi.

"Let the admirals of the Nine Gates take them to the government office, and I will interrogate them myself." After he finished speaking, he turned to face the people, "Folks, I am the emperor of the Qing Dynasty, and I didn't find out in time to let these foreigners hurt Daqing." The people of the Qing Dynasty were my fault. I decided to make amends. Anyone who was oppressed by foreigners before can come to the government office, and I will personally make decisions for you."

"You don't care about those who are being bullied by corrupt officials?" someone said loudly.

Kangxi looked at him and shouted loudly, "Come on, I decided to stay in the government office for five days. Anyone who has been wronged during this period, whether foreigners or Qing officials, I will make decisions for you. After five days, you can also come to the government office." If you go to the Yamen to appeal for injustice, I will have regular private visits, and I will definitely return you justice."

As the emperor, it is impossible for him to live outside the palace all the time, five days is already the limit.But he couldn't ignore the affairs of the people, after all, what he wanted was to be a good emperor, not a fool.His words directly put an end to the issue of mutual protection between officials and officials that the people were worried about.

As for the candidate for regular private visits, he already has in mind, looking at the straight prince standing beside him, no one is more suitable than him.

Today's Admiral of the Nine Gates is Ulanara's Fei Yanggu, who is responsible for the security of the entire capital and is Kangxi's confidant.Naturally, such a big matter as the emperor's departure from the palace would not be kept from him. At this time, he was personally leading people to wait not far away, just to prevent any accidents from happening.

Knowing that the emperor summoned him, he rushed over immediately with the staff of Jiumen.

"Take this man back first and wait for me to deal with it. No one is allowed to see him without my order." After ordering Fei Yanggu, he squatted in front of the stall owner, "How much did you plan to sell this blue and white porcelain?" Is it enough for me to give you 1000 taels of silver?" I didn't see it clearly from a distance, but now I took a closer look and found that it was a high-quality imitation. According to his valuation, it was 300 taels. The high price was not due to his money, but to the For the sake of his filial piety.

Before the stall owner opened his mouth, Zhartu boldly said: "Your Majesty, this fake in your hand is not worth so much money." If he didn't like the picture on the porcelain vase very much, he would not be willing to spend 100 taels to buy a fake go back.I thought I was stupid enough, but I didn't expect the emperor to be even more stupid than myself, so I gave 1000 taels directly.If you don't pay attention to the provenance at this price, you can buy the real thing.

Hitting Zhaertu on the head with a fan, the elder brother said bluntly: "Idiot." What are you thinking, Huang Ama's appreciation level is praised by the teachers, Zhaertu can see it, Huang Ama Ma won't see it?It's not the group of foreigners who have never seen the market.
