.Since October, good news has been frequent in the court. First, it was learned that King Shang Kexi of Pingnan died of illness. In fact, according to Yinzhen's opinion, Shang Kexi should have died of depression. Since Wu Sangui launched a rebellion, Shang Kexi first had an unfilial son Shang Zhixin abandoned his vassal and ignored him and directly defected to King Pingxi. Then he was under house arrest by Kangxi. In a hurry, he finally died.

After the messenger who reported the deeds arrived in Tongzhou, Kangxi gave the Dharani sutra as usual, and stopped court for three days. He also sent a royal family member Beile to mourn and give me tea and fruits to pay tribute to the funeral rituals of 8,000 taels of silver, which was considered to be extremely mourning. However, Yinzhen knew that Kangxi must be very happy.

As early as the New Year, Shang Zhixin secretly colluded with Wu Sangui, King Pingxi, and Wu Sangui also wrote many times to ask Shang Kexi to raise an army to support him. Although Shang Kexi presented all these letters to the court to show loyalty, Kangxi was half-believing and half-doubted. After all, in the court's view, the Three Feudatories and Three are one, and they are in harmony with Wu Sangui. When Wu Sangui rebelled, Shang Kexi was worried. However, the court has suppressed the rebellion of Wu and threw all the adjustable soldiers into the southwest. Although there is progress at this time, if Guangdong starts another battle, the court will immediately be in a short position.

In addition, Kangxi was quite afraid of Shang Kexi. Shang Kexi was a general who was a horse, with a group of tigers and wolves under his command, and there were 100,000 soldiers from his vassals. If he was eager to lick his calf and attacked Wu Sangui, then there would be no more troops in the capital to suppress the rebellion. Now that Shang Kexi has passed away, Shang Zhixin is outside, the remaining sons are all weak people, have no prestige in the army, and the territory of Guangdong has become a piece of loose sand, which is not in danger.

In Guiwei, the governor of Panyuan, Han Shiqi, general officer Heshan, and Lu Chongyao defeated Wu Shifan's thief general Huang Ming, the pseudo-court court, in Guzhou at 80,000 (Wu Sangui died of illness half a year ago and his son Wu Shifan succeeded to the throne), thus further forming the final siege of Wu Sangui.

Kangxi was overjoyed when he heard the news and called out a big fist. All the princes in Beijing, ministers of the ministry, and officials above the fourth rank were listed. After the four whip, everyone entered one after another and stood in a dark place in the Qianqing Palace Palace. Kangxi, surrounded by Luanyi Guards and eunuchs Bingli, sat upright on the dragon throne in the middle.

Yinzhen was also standing downstairs. In fact, except for the prince and the eldest prince, the other princes were not yet at the age of following the court to follow the government, so it was logical that they would not have to join in the fun. However, Kangxi specially ordered Yinzhi and Yinzhen to come together this time. Kangxi naturally hoped that they could also see the opinions of the ministers and courts.

Yinzhen disagreed and thought to himself: This was the old man's intentional arrangement (actually Kangxi was less than 30 at this time). When Kangxi intended to withdraw the vassal state, there were only a few of the ministers who agreed. Thanks to the strong support of the Empress Dowager, he was able to implement it. After that, the war was hard and finally saw the dawn of victory, Kangxi naturally wanted to show off his foresight in front of the ministers in the court. After all, as an emperor, who would not want his civil and military functions to be famous in history?

On that day, Kangxi was wearing a formal bright yellow court robes, ink-colored sable crown, and a weft on top. Three layers of roof, each layer of one east bead, each of which was carried by four golden dragons, each of which was decorated with one east bead, and a large pearl in his mouth. The sable collar, stone green sleeves, and sea dragon edges, and gold pieces were inlaid. The embroidered text had two shoulders, one front and back, and six straight dragons on the waist curtains, arranged in twelve chapters, and the spirit of the end. Such a happy event is in front of Kangxi, even if he is always like a person who never laughs at his ministers, his excitement is beyond words.

Kangxi looked at the ministers and suppressed the joy in his heart, saying, "My ministers, today I called Daqi. First, I received the red flag to report victory the day before yesterday, and in the Guzhou battle, I killed tens of thousands of enemies. At this time, Wu Ni was surrounded by my eight banners, and it was just around the corner to destroy Kunming City. This court will be considered as a congratulations to me and you and your ministers. Second, after defeating the thief, you will be in trouble. I want you to discuss the matters of the aftermath of the court after the withdrawal of the vassal."

After Kangxi finished speaking, he looked at the ministers with a smile. The ministers were headed by Prince Yu Fuquan, and the princes were bowing together with the crown prince. Long live the mountain, and then praised one by one, until Kangxi was praised as the number one saint of Ming in ancient and modern times. Even Yao and Shun could only sigh. Yinzhen stood below and sighed for the rich faces of all officials. Fortunately, he didn't need to flatter him now, otherwise he might be laughing at the same time and then causing a big disaster.

Kangxi couldn't help but show a little bit of brilliance on his face, but it was fleeting. Zhengyan said: "All the ministers and officials, when I first withdrew from the vassal, they were arbitrary and brave enough to show their courage. They might not be ready for everything. Therefore, the deadlock in the war in the past few years, which almost made Wu Ni become bigger. Fortunately, my ancestors blessed me with the help of heaven and earth, and with you all, this is the situation today. I want to hear your views on how to cure the aftermath."

The court officials began to whisper, and finally, a senior official stood up and looked at him secretly, and saw that the man was of medium size, not old but had a little fat head and ears, and there was a smile between his eyebrows and eyes. He looked very handsome, and he was a first-rank official.

Yinzhen was guessing, and the man was already laughing and said, "My servant Mingzhu thought that now the great victory is worse than to act in one's way, collect all the lands in Yunnan, set up prefectures and counties, and promote the kingly way. All the subjects in the world are grateful to our emperor for their kindness. However, the prefectures and counties must be set aside for a while, and the southern land is desolate, and it has been under the jurisdiction of Wu Ni for a long time. We have to think more about it."

Yinzhen thought to himself: "I am worthy of being nicknamed 'Xiao Mingzhu'. I have great skills in flattery, but in the end his remarks, I just say something in a few scenes and don't mention any practice. If I criticize it, I can't catch any handle. If I count it, I've said everything but said nothing."

As soon as Mingzhu finished speaking, another super-class official stood up, looking at the costumes and being too handsome, and should have the title of Duke. He bowed to Kangxi first, and then said to Mingzhu: "Mr. Mingzhu, you have been in the court for a long time and ask less about the place. Suo must say a few more words. Yunnan is a place where all ethnic groups live, with miasma and old bandits. Wu Ni has been suffering for a long time. Officials in the court have changed their colors when they hear Yunnan. They would rather hang seals than take up their posts. If there is no official choice, how should they do it? Suo believes that the general establishment of a county should be set up in Yunnan and the local chieftains should be used to appease the people."

Mingzhu suddenly turned red and said angrily: "Mr. Suo, how can Ming not know the difficulties? We have also concealed it from the emperor..."

"It turns out that this is the prince's uncle and grandfather, Mingzhu's mortal enemy, Soetu. Unexpectedly, in such a dull court meeting, you can still see such a good show. It's worth it. It's not in vain that your legs are sore when you stand." Yinzhen laughed secretly.

Seeing Soetu was about to speak, Mingzhu took the lead and first asked for punishment and said: "Your Majesty, I also thought that what Lord Soetu made a lot of sense. I did not think clearly before, so I stepped forward rashly. Please forgive me for your crime."

Kangxi waved his hand and said, "Today is a court meeting, and all the ministers and workers are talking as they please. What is the crime?"

After Mingzhu knelt down and thanked her, she immediately changed her voice and said sarcastically to Soetu: "Mr. Suo used to have a pledge to kill Ma with Wu Ni, so he had quite objections to the emperor's withdrawal of the vassal. Now, for the emperor to pacify the people's wishes in Yunnan, Mingzhu sighed that he was not as good as he did."
