every spring [comprehensive]

Ever since the New Year in the sixth year of Kangxi's reign, when it was still the coldest winter, waves of beggars flooded into the capital.They spoke foreign accents, most of them were from Kanto, some from Zhili, Shandong, and Henan. They begged for food in ragged clothes, and lived in groups under the walls of dilapidated temples and huts.

The population of Beijing City has been reduced by half since the defeat of King Li Zicheng. There are many vacant and abandoned houses.But dilapidated houses can’t save everyone. From the harsh winter to this summer, most beggars and refugees still starved to death. People from Wucheng Bingmasi patrol the streets every day, and they can pull several carts back and forth. It takes five or six trips.

The young Emperor Kangxi was born in the palace, and he hardly ever stepped out of the Forbidden City. Of course, he didn't know the scene outside the Forbidden City.

But all the officials knew about it, but they all pretended not to know, and no one dared to speak out.Because they know that these beggars are the people who have been victimized by the enclosure.

During the land enclosure, many banner people became homeless and became beggars. The life of ordinary people was even more difficult. The land could not be planted, and the family could not stay. They had to escape from the house with their children and beg in the vicinity of the capital. However, the capital city is not a worry-free pure land. The crowds of refugees in the capital city are all caused by the "transformation" of the land.

During the political discussion in the afternoon, Kangxi strode over with Jianning behind him. As soon as he came, he felt that the atmosphere was not right. Prince Kang Jieshu, Ye Bilong, and Su Keshaha waited there tremblingly None of the other courtiers came, Kangxi was surprised: "Is it because I came too early, why haven't people come yet?"

Sukesaha said coldly: "Back to the emperor, they are still in the class. Ao Zhongtang may have something to say to them. This behavior of Ao Zhongtang is extremely inappropriate. In my opinion, forming a party for personal gain is not a good omen for the country." ” No matter what Ao Bai left them to say, to lecture in private before the emperor, in Sukeshaha’s view, it was ulterior motives, so he must sue Ao Bai first.

Kangxi raised his hand to interrupt him, could he not know that Aobai formed a clique for personal gain and had ulterior motives?What he wants is a solution!Asked: "Where is Suo'etu? Ao Zhongtang also gave him a lecture together?" When did the two of them get along so well?

Prince Kang Jieshu whispered: "Back to the emperor, I heard... I heard that Sonny was seriously ill and was on his deathbed, so Suo'etu asked for leave to wait on the bedside." It seems that Sonny passed away at this time Half a moment later, this old minister was a veteran of the three dynasties who was deeply favored by the emperor, and his death was not a pity, but once he died, Oboi would be unstoppable, and it might become even worse. It would be a catastrophe for the court!

Kangxi was very surprised and said: "What! Sonny is seriously ill? Didn't the imperial doctor say that there is a possibility of recovery if he takes good care of him!" In his desperation, he almost knocked over the inkstone on the royal case, but it was Jianning who held the inkstone steady. Helped Kangxi to stabilize his mind, although Kangxi quickly calmed down.

But several courtiers could also see Kangxi's gaffe from this, and not only the emperor, but the few of them are also panicked and in a state of anxiety.Among the ministers in the court, only Suo Suo can hold Oboi down. If he dies, Oboi will become a wild horse, and maybe he will do something.

Several ministers also knew the emperor's reliance on Sony, but the facts were already like this, so they could only say: "I hope Lord Suo and Taji will have their own destiny. If Lord Suo has any misfortune, please forgive me."

Kangxi frowned and pondered, he originally had a plan, and he planned to plan it gradually, but he didn't expect Sonny to die of illness so soon. If this is the case, maybe his plan will be advanced, and he will have to take a risk .

After a while, Oboi led the other ministers to arrive. After everyone greeted the emperor, Oboi said straight to the point: "The emperor, Su Nahai, Wang Denglian, and Zhu Changzuo have read the excerpts of the three. come down?"

Kangxi calmed down and said: "I have seen it last night. What they beat up has yet to be investigated, so I have retained it."

Aobai said: "I have already read the papers of these three people. They are all big officials in the frontier, but they have ulterior motives, obstruct state affairs, and should be executed according to the law! I don't know what the emperor left behind these treacherous papers. ?”

He spoke these few words loudly and sharply, with full of air, all the people in the hall looked at each other in blank dismay.

Kangxi couldn't help but change his face, he was startled and doubtful, he thought that although Oboi was usually rude, he didn't dare to question him like this, why did he dare to show his prestige today?That's right, he must have known that Sony was about to die, and no one with similar skills as him could come out to hinder him, so he dared to be so bold!More confident.Kangxi took a deep breath and looked at the guards around him. Wei Dongting was not on duty today, only Namo and Murima were a little familiar, and the rest were all unfamiliar faces. One of these two is Oboi's own brother, and the other is his own nephew.

Thinking of the current situation, Kangxi couldn't help but gasped.But I don't know that Jianning's position can completely protect him. If there is an accident, he can do it at any time, but Jianning thinks that Oboi will not do it at this time, just like Kangxi feels that he is not ready yet. Exactly the same, Oboi is arrogant, but he is not ready to seize the throne and usurp the government, otherwise today he would not be obsessed with the "small matter" of killing the three ministers who participated in his performance.

Su Keshaha said at this time: "My Majesty, regarding Ao Zhongtang's request to exchange land with Zhengbai Banner, Zhili Governor Zhu Changzuo, Wang Denglian, and Household Secretary Sunahai, the three of them have conducted on-the-spot investigations. It can be proved that this matter has caused too much disturbance to the people, so we jointly filed a petition to implore the emperor to withdraw his order."

Aobai said forcefully: "Your Majesty, the three of them obviously did not obey the sacred teachings and deceived the emperor, so they must not be allowed to stay, and they should be executed according to the law!"

Su Keshaha saw that Oboi was so tough today, he definitely wanted to put the three of them to death, knelt under the jade steps and wept blood, and stated: "The three ministers are just following the public opinion and jointly submitting a petition, and it is true. , What crime is there! Please the emperor's sage is arbitrary!"

Originally, the discussion was about whether to change the circle, but now it has become the person who dealt with the three top performers to tell the truth and plead for the people.

Kang Xiqiang suppressed the panic in his heart, gathered his mind and looked around, and said: "Since I became the throne, I have repeatedly issued decrees to prohibit land enclosure. The situation should not be as serious as the three ministers said, right? Besides, people from the Manchu and Han banners have already Having lived in harmony for more than [-] years, letting them leave their hometown for no reason is probably not a kind of good governance. Although the beating by the three of them is not true, in my opinion, they are also out of sincerity."

Obai snorted coldly in court!Ye Bilong immediately said: "Long live is really insightful, and the slave also thinks that Su Nahai and the other three are alarmist and deliberately disrupting the government, which is an unforgivable crime!"

Not only Kangxi, but all the civil and military officials in the court felt that Ye Bilong was the only one among the ministers who climbed up smoothly, distorted the holy will and catered to Oboi, but at this time no one dared to laugh at him, at least he It has shown its attitude, and it can be guaranteed for the time being.Others were frowning, afraid to ask themselves.

Kangxi looked at it and asked, "Prince Kang, what do you think?"

Seeing that the situation was so tense, Prince Kang, the minister leading the guards, did not dare to support the little emperor at this time, otherwise he would be the one to be eliminated in the situation, so he had to practice Tai Chi and said: "Sukshaha is right, Mr. Ao It’s also true, the slave can’t make a conclusion for a while, the emperor is wise and has his own opinion, the slave dare not make a judgment!”

The hall was full of drooping heads, wishing to hide out of the hall, Kangxi could even see everyone's intact coral tops!However, he still needs to find someone who supports him, so he has to ask: "What do you mean by the family?"

Those who lean towards Ao Bai's party accounted for a considerable part, and those who dared to speak said: "Ao Zhongtang's words are justified, Su Nahai and others resisted the order, and they should be punished for their crimes. Please allow Ao Zhongtang to play!"

What Kangxi didn't understand at this time was that they had agreed with Obai before they came.

Sukeshaha knew that the general situation was over, and even burned all inside.Wang Denglian was his student, and he agreed to take part in the Oboi Enclave to disrupt the country, but no one thought that it might lead to death!

Kangxi's face was ashen, and he sat on the royal seat and looked at the crowd, silent and did not issue orders.

Aobai ignored the courtesies of the emperor and ministers, raised his arms and shouted: "The crime of bullying the emperor should have been executed quickly. Today, the three of them were just beheaded for abandoning the market. Why didn't the emperor issue an order? Could it be that the three villains were allowed to slander me?" This assistant minister! Most of the Qing Dynasty was brought down by me, Oboi, now that the country is peaceful and the people are safe, does the emperor want to kiss the villain and abandon the heroes?!"

He then said to Sukeshaha who was kneeling on the ground: "Brother Sukeshaha, could it be that you feel sorry for your disciple Wang Denglian? His memorial must have been ordered by you, right?"

Sukeshaha shivered, met Ao Bai's cold gaze, he didn't say anything, he just sighed.Aobai laughed loudly, knowing that this was a compromise, he agreed to kill the three of them as a warning to others.

Aobai said with great anger: "Your Majesty, please issue an order!" Other ministers also knelt down and echoed: "Please issue an order!"

When did Kangxi suffer such persecution!But it was from the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, and his hands were shaking with anger!How to write, let alone such an imperial decree to kill loyal ministers, he can't write it out of conscience!He tightened his lips, held his head stubbornly, and remained silent.

Jian Ning watched from the sidelines and became anxious. During the meeting, she could follow along like a bodyguard, but there was no room for her to speak, and in the current situation, all the civil and military forces in the court were forced by Oboi's despotic power to plead for orders together. Putting pressure on, no matter what anyone says, it doesn't work!

At this time, under the eyes of everyone who couldn't believe it, Ao Bai strode up the jade steps and walked to the side of Kangxi's imperial table. Jianning stared at him from the other side. Ao Bai saw that this was not as tall as his waist The little girl couldn't help but sneered, and said loudly: "The old minister is really confused. The emperor doesn't want a famous teacher of Confucianism that the minister finds for him, but he wants to choose a master with a poor level. If he can teach Wang Denglian's rebellious ministers and thieves, I'm afraid it will delay the emperor. I'm done with my studies, and I can't even write an edict, let the veteran do it for me!" After saying that, he picked up the imperial pen on the table and wanted to write on the imperial edict.

Veins had popped out on Kangxi's forehead, Jianning shook his hand vigorously to calm him down, and don't start any conflicts at this moment.

For the first time, Jianning said, "I'll grind the ink." After speaking, he took some water from the bowl and began to grind the ink.They are often active in the Qianqing Palace, so the ministers all recognize her.

Aobai laughed and said: "It's still Sangege who knows current affairs!" After speaking, he really waited for Jianning to grind his ink to serve him, he didn't treat her as a princess at all, his casual attitude seemed to be like treating an ordinary little palace lady.
