Chapter 273: Seducing Li Guangdi

After coming out of Nian'er Hutong, Yinzhen did not return to his house, but spread along Taiye Lake. It was late spring, and the light along Taiye Lake was infinite, but Yinzhen had no intention of appreciating it. He walked all the way, savoring the situation of seeing Kangxi in his heart.[.]

Although Kangxi vigorously promoted the integration of Manchu and Han, he had never relaxed his guard against the Han people, especially in the military. This time, the dispatch of Liu Zhisheng, Lin Wei led 4,000 navy and 6,000 green camps to attack Manila caused Kangxi's dissatisfaction and concern.

But if he wanted the navy to stay in Southeast Asia to gain time, wouldn’t this make Kangxi even more suspicious? If Kangxi vigorously suppressed the Han people in the navy, it would be a little more costly.

Thinking of this, Yinzhen couldn't help but sigh slightly. It was an established plan to let the navy stay in the South China Sea and provoke a war with the Netherlands. In fact, it was to raise the thief and respect himself. Only when wars continued, the navy could continue to grow, and only when facing crises at all times did Kangxi dare not easily weaken his control over the navy.

It is better to seek for yourself than to ask for others. It is absolutely unreliable to place your hopes entirely on Kangxi. With 30,000 navy troops in hand, you can control Nanyang and Australia, and you can be invincible, and you can have the capital to challenge Kangxi and force Kangxi to make him the crown prince.

Although Kangxi established the Navy Department and incorporated the Tianjin Navy, Chongming Navy, Fujian Navy, and Guangdong Navy into the Navy Department, which seemed to be of high position and powerful strength, in fact, the Tianjin Navy was impossible to mobilize. The Chongming Navy was basically an inland waters, and the Guangdong Navy was already disabled. The truly useful ones that could command were the Fujian Navy, Shi Shipiao, Shi Shilun, and the Shi family were bound to the 14th party.

I don't know what Kangxi's move was intended. It was really as he said to prepare for the future abolishment of the navy? Yinzhen felt that it was not that simple. The incorporation of these navy troops into the navy may be just a prelude. Kangxi must have a backup plan. In terms of power, he is still too young compared to Kangxi, and he can only take the stupid method of surrendering ten times with one force.

Thinking of Kangxi asking him to return to Beijing to practice court affairs, Yinzhen didn't feel a little expectant. If Kangxi really wanted to make him the crown prince, it would be a situation where the father was kind and son was filial, brothers were friendly and respectful, and everyone liked it. However, how can people think about the world?

Yinzhen pondered all the way, and before he knew it, he had arrived at Shichahai. Dachun stepped forward and reported, "Master, it's not early, and the master walked away for a while. I guess he was tired. I'm going to find a sedan chair?"

"How could you think so badly?" Yinzhen waved his hand, thought for a moment before asking, "Li Guangdi lives nearby, right?"

Dachun replied respectfully: "Go back to the master, Master Li's mansion is in Yaer Hutong, and it is indeed not far from here."

Li Guangdi was an old minister of the Xi Dynasty, and all the civil and military officials of the court. He was the one who could best understand Kangxi's intentions. Talking to him, maybe he could guess Kangxi's true intentions. Thinking of this, Yinzhen ordered: "I will inform you to go to Li Guang's residence and I will visit you."

As the weather became warmer, Li Guangdi's body also improved day by day and became more energetic, but he usually did not participate as usual. Yinzhen returned to Beijing with great victory. Although he was the flag bearer of the 14th Party, he did not go to the Prince Heng's Mansion to congratulate him out of his usual caution. At his age and position, he was already disdainful of his superficial skills.

However, when he heard that Yinzhen was wearing casual clothes to visit the mansion, Li Guangdi did not dare to be negligent. He immediately changed into regular clothes and went out of the mansion in person. However, he wondered, why did the Fourteenth Master suddenly come to visit the house? He did he act and conduct a manners and conduct a polite visit? Or did he encounter a difficult situation?

Yinzhen had already walked to the mansion as soon as he left. Li Guangdi rushed forward and wanted to pay his respects to Yinzhen. Yinzhen stepped forward and held him in a hurry, and smiled and said, "Li Zhongtang doesn't need to be polite. Yinzhen relaxed all the way and passed by here. He visited him nearby. He didn't disturb Li Zhongtang's rest, right?"

Li Guangdi still bowed and said, "Old minister Li Guangdi pays homage to the Fourteenth Master." He stood up and bowed again, "Congratulations to the Fourteenth Master for his great victory in the navy." Then, Fang smiled and said, "The Fourteenth Master is a distinguished guest. The emperor rewarded the Wei minister with one or two big red robes a few days ago, just in time for the Fourteenth Master to taste it." He bowed and reached out and bowed and said, "Please."

Knowing that Li Guangdi was cautious and respected rules, Yinzhen was not polite, so he smiled slightly and took the lead.

Li Guangdi also knew that Yinzhen had something to come, so he took Yinzhen directly to the study. After the servant served the tea, he poured a small cup with his own hands before reaching out to give in and said, "This tea is said to be produced by the thousand-year-old tree. Please, the 14th Master."

Yinzhen took a look, but saw that the soup was bright and orange. He picked it up and sniffed it lightly, but he felt the fragrance was fragrant and had a faint orchid fragrance. He couldn't help but praise: "This tea rock has a distinctive aroma, and it is indeed extraordinary. Before it can be eaten, it makes people feel fragrant. It is a good tea."

Li Guangdi was from Fujian and was familiar with Dahongpao. When he heard Yinzhen say that the rock rhyme was obvious, he couldn't help but exclaim: "The word "Fourth Master Yanyun" can be said to express the charm of Dahongpao."

Yinzhen took a sip and then recalled it briefly: "Fujian has many mountains and few lands, which is suitable for vigorously developing the mountainous economy. Tea is the top priority."

Developing tea? Li Guangdi did not expect that Yinzhen would start talking about the topic from Fujian tea. He was slightly stunned and said: "Fujian has many famous teas and the output is also large. However, there are countless famous teas in various places, which is really difficult to open up the situation. In addition, transportation is inconvenient and the cost is too high, so it is difficult to compete with famous teas from other places."

"Whether Li Zhongtang's vision can only be the Qing Dynasty?" Yinzhen said with a smile.

Li Guangdi slugged slightly and hesitated: "The East is limited, and the Fourteenth Master refers to the West? But the purchases of the West over the years are also extremely limited."

"Everything is not constant." Yinzhen said in a divine manner: "Yinzhen invested 800,000 taels of silver to lay tea outlets last year. Fujian has developed shipping and is the main production area for tea. If several more large tea gardens can be built, it will benefit future generations."

Li Guangdi's heart was beating wildly when he heard this. The Fourteenth Master actually spent 800,000 taels of silver just to build a purchase. Who is the Fourteenth Master? He was the one who made a fuss to the extreme. He only spent 200,000 to annex the "Four Great Hengs" and then the Ocean Trade Fleet, which captured tens of millions in one fell swoop.

The Fourteenth Master is now willing to spend 800,000 taels of silver to invest in the tea trade, which shows that he is extremely optimistic about the tea trade. Thinking of the Fourteenth Master's vision, Li Guangdi was slightly excited. Fujian is a major tea-producing province, and his hometown Anxi is even more famous for producing tea. This is an excellent opportunity to benefit future generations.
