Old man Fei asked his elder brother to write Tiaochen and quickly spread it out again. Tiaochen's content was a bit incredible to many people. He actually asked the princes to think about how to deal with the envoys of a small Western barbarian country?... No matter how you hear this thing, it feels like a joke?

Some people who didn't like Old Man Fei wanted to take the opportunity to make suggestions. As a result, the four ministers of the imperial court officials were suppressed before they were handed over to Kangxi, and the instigation of some bannermen was also regarded as a warning by the Interior Affairs Office and the Zongren Office.

Who can get involved in the upper class of the imperial court?

In recent years, the Qing Dynasty has expanded outwardly, and every time it comes with huge benefits. As the master of the princes, Old Man Fei must have been approved by the emperor and opposed it? Are you looking for K?

The princes also understand this truth deeply. Therefore, even if they complain in their hearts, they have to stay at home honestly and dare not go out for several days. Even if they are not careful, at least they have to show seriousness on the surface.

"It's a headache!"

In a relatively remote courtyard, the fourth prince Yinzhen gently pushed open the door of the study, rubbed his head and walked out.

"Master, what's wrong with you? Do you want to call the imperial physician?"

Gao Fu'er was napping in a corner of the yard. After hearing the sound of the door opening, he ran over. However, he didn't expect that Yinzhen would actually have a headache and asked hurriedly.

"No! Alas... are Mr. Wu and the others here?" Yinzhen closed his eyes and gently pinched the bridge of his nose, then asked Gao Fu'er.

"Go back to the master, Mr. Wu and Huamei went to burn incense. Not long after I came back, I was playing chess with Master Wenjue there!" Gao Fu'er replied.

"Play chess?...They are leisurely! Let's go and take a look!" Yinzhen waved his sleeves lightly and walked out of the yard. Gao Fu's son hurriedly followed behind.

The previous time I went to Anhui to check the accounts, because Yinzhen had preconceived ideas and did not listen to good people, he suffered a great loss and was idle by Kangxi for a long time. Afterwards, Yinzhen attributed the reason for this to his personality and his lack of a counselor with him. The country is easy to change, but his nature is difficult to change. He knew that he was mean and suspicious, and he was easily angry. His servants were afraid of him and did not dare to persuade him at all. In addition, after Kangxi went to Beijing in the south, the city of Beijing was changing. Therefore, in order to deal with possible emergencies or advise him at any time, Wu Sidao and Monk Wenjue, who were originally raised in the suburbs of the city, were invited directly to his home for consultation at any time. Anyway, he had not attracted much attention before, and he was already idle, so he was even less afraid of being talked about.

Wu Sidao and Monk Wenjue lived alone, and the location was a small cross-yard that was quite close to his residence.

"The two are in great interest."

These days, literati and scholars generally have no hobbies. Even if they have to summarize the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, if they have to add one more item, it is just a show! Wu Sidao and Monk Wenjue are not people who love fun, and few people can talk about it in the capital, so the usual entertainment is to play chess, fight and Zen, and occasionally go out for a walk. That's all. When Yinzhen entered this small yard, the two were playing chess in a small pavilion in the yard...blind chess!

"The Fourth Master is here!"

Monk Wenjue was originally closing his eyes and thinking about the chess game. When he heard Yinzhen's voice, he immediately opened his eyes, stood up with a smile and bowed.

"What a slut monk. When he saw that the momentum was not good, he took the opportunity to leave. He was not afraid of the cause and effect in the future!" Wu Sidao's leg was lame, and he didn't have to bow. He just nodded to Yinzhen and said to him and he had seen him. However, after seeing Yinzhen, he turned to mock Monk Wenjue.

"Cause and effect are cause and effect. At worst, you can lose to you if you go through ten rounds of games in the future!" Monk Wenjue didn't care about Wu Sidao's jokes, and he thought it was the spring breeze blowing on his face.

"hehe.

It turned out that the two of them were fighting chess again. I wonder what the lottery was?" Yinzhen walked over and asked with a smile.

"There is no good luck either, but Mr. Wu made a bet with me that if I win, he would go into ordain and become a monk and enter my sect!" Monk Wenjue said with a smile.

"What if Mr. Wu wins?" Gao Fuer asked intriguedly.

"A wooden crutch, knock on the bald man three times!" Wu Sidao looked at Monk Wenjue's shiny forehead with his eyes, raised the ebony crutch in his hand, and said maliciously.

"Hahaha... it's interesting, it's really interesting. It's just that it looks like this. Compared to becoming a monk, it seems that Mr. Wu is at a disadvantage!" Yinzhen said with a smile.

"If you don't have the confidence to win, how could Wu let this old bald man take advantage?... It's just that such behavior is too energetic and only makes the Fourth Master laugh." Wu Sidao bowed to Yinzhen slightly and said.

"Haha, what is Mr. Wu saying? How could Yinzhen laugh at you?" Yinzhen shook his hand and smiled.

"Haha, the Fourth Master came to find me this time, I guess something was wrong, right?" asked Monk Wenjue. As soon as he said this, Gao Fu'er immediately turned around and walked out of the yard.

"Oh, how did the master know that Yinzhen had something to ask?" Yinzhen asked.

"The Fourth Master frowned. If I hadn't seen any problems you had encountered, I would have had two pairs of eyes white!" Wu Sidao said with a smile.

"Haha..." Yinzhen smiled awkwardly and nodded, "Yes, Yinzhen did encounter some difficulties. It's not to hide it from you. This difficulty is the one written by Ferdinand, who asked us brothers to write... Yinzhen never discovered that this story would be so difficult to write. This is a fault for not listening carefully. Now two days have passed, but he hasn't even written the beginning. But it's really a headache."

"It's just how to receive the Tiaochen of the British envoy?" asked Monk Wenjue.

"That's right!" Yinzhen nodded.

"This..." Wu Sidao and Monk Wenjue looked at each other, and shook their heads with a wry smile. Monk Wenjue said to Yinzhen: "Fourth Master, I am not me and Mr. Wu who are unwilling to help you. I have no experience in this matter. I am afraid the more I intervene, the more trouble I will be!"

"Master, don't say that. I know that this time, I'm afraid no one can help us brothers... I came here, but I felt a little frustrated because I couldn't write a sentence after two days. I wanted to come to chat with you and relax!" Yinzhen said.

"The Fourth Master doesn't have to do this. In fact, you can't write it out. The other princes probably can't write much. Moreover, according to Wu's opinion, Ferdinand was probably intentional about this. The emperor was just selling him some face. Even if he couldn't write anything, nothing would happen." Wu Sidao said.

"Oh? Ferdinand's favor is still above the four ministers in the study room. Emperor Ama almost obeyed him. Even Soetu and Mingzhu had never treated him so well. Mr. Wu, why did you say that his affairs don't matter?" Yinzhen asked.

"The emperor favors Ferdinand. This is true. However, if this favor is still above the four ministers in the Shangshu, it is a bit exaggerated. Of course, it is even more impossible to compare with Soetu and Mingzhu. In fact, the reason why the emperor treats Ferdinand so well is that this person has made some contributions and hard work. In my opinion, Ferdinand may not be willing to take such favor!" Wu Sidao said.

"How do you say this?" Yinzhen asked.

"Ferdinand was in Fengtian for more than ten years. As a result, Fengtian changed from a barren land to this today. The sum of silver and money paid to the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Treasury every year will not be less than ten million taels. This is almost a Jiangnan. Such contributions. Since the founding of the Qing Dynasty, how many people can match it? But the emperor transferred him to the capital with one sentence. Although the appearance is beautiful, from a rank of a chief official to a position that is now in this position that cannot speak to the government. Is Ferdinand really willing? In my opinion, the emperor treats him so well because he feels sorry for him." Wu Sidao said.

"Mr. Wu's words are reasonable. Since the emperor ascended the throne, there are only those who have favors, so only Soetu and Mingzhu. But these two people held high power and provoked party disputes in the court, so the emperor had to suppress them from time to time. Thinking back to the time when Su Ming was in power, if the court had not nodded, even the emperor would not be able to fully implement it. What kind of power is this? But what about Ferdinand's several people? In terms of merit, they are not inferior to Su Ming; in terms of power, they have offended many people for the sake of affairs in the court. Fourth Master, don't look at their current glory. Over the years, the emperor has just said one word, and they have mobilized them, and given up their thrones... How dare you have more than half of the complaints? If you are not in his position, you don't know the pain in his heart!" Monk Wen Jue also said.

“According to the two of you.

Emperor Ama just because he felt guilty... so he favored Ferdinand and others?" Yinzhen asked again.

"No, the Fourth Master was wrong." Wu Sidao shook his head and said.

"What do you mean by Mr. Wu?" Yinzhen asked in confusion.

"My emperor is kind and even though he finds out the serious crimes of the two, he will not be willing to kill them. Even if he commits a crime, he will definitely find a way to protect him. However, treating Ferdinand and others with good deeds may not be the only reason." Wu Sidao replied.

"What's the reason?"

"When a person is about to die, not to mention the kindness of my emperor, even if he is a tyrant, I am afraid he is not willing to embarrass them..." Wu Sidao sighed.

"Why are you dying?" Yinzhen narrowed his eyes.

"A hundred years later, Ferdinand and others may die without a place to bury!" Monk Wenjue also said softly from the side.

"How can this be done? Ferdinand and others are all great talents. If the new king succeeds to the throne and it is too late to use it, how could they kill them? Why should those people..." Yinzhen frowned.

"Pretending to be stupid!" Wu Sidao glanced at Yinzhen and said to himself secretly... Yes, from the perspective of the emperor, Ferdinand and others were all capable ministers who were too late to use. However, in this world, there were countless ministers, gentry and other people. Just look at the large number of people that Ferdinand and others offended. Without Kangxi covering them, they would have died eight hundred times long ago. What kind of Beijing flag Ferdinand has made?

Back to the tank, how many people in the Beijing Banner have been punished by him? Yes, this matter is conducive to improving the ability of the Manchus and maintaining the rule of the Manchus. Kangxi began to pay attention to this old man, regard him as a capable minister, and protect him from all sides, but those people in the Eight Banners definitely would not think so. Many people in the Beijing Banners want to settle the old accounts with Ferdinand... Although Ferdinand also had a good relationship with the Three Kings of Fengtian and some Mongolian Khan during his tenure, it was really time for him to do so.

Some people are willing to plead for him, and there is one who can have a good relationship with him. There are also Ma De. From Anhui to the three provinces of Jiangnan, not many officials and gentry like him. Although he also brought benefits to many people, provided huge taxes for the court, and greatly stabilized the land, those people will only remember his badness and will not remember his goodness! Although Yuzhong offended relatively few people, he was a very influential guy in the army, with Ferdinand and others.

It has always been one, who dares to let him go? Aren’t he afraid of revenge? More than 100,000 people killed a singular person, who is not afraid? What’s more, Yu Zhong’s wife is very good at managing her family, and her family’s wealth is probably more than ten million, and she has such financial resources. In addition, Yu Zhong’s own ability, if he rebels in anger, it will inevitably be a huge disaster for the entire Qing Dynasty. Therefore, before Ferdinand and Made died, Yu Zhong would probably have to go to the guillotine.

"Actually, Ferdinand and others may not have such an ending. It all depends on what the new king means!" said Monk Wen Jue.

"New Lord!?"

"That's right. As long as the new king is strongly defending it, these people will inevitably become famous officials of a generation. But who can have such courage and prestige? They offended too many people! Moreover, those people are very powerful in the court. Even the emperor. It is because of the accumulated power over the past few decades that they can suppress these people." Monk Wen Jue sighed.

"Why don't the emperor find a way to protect them?" Yinzhen asked suddenly.

"The emperor's heart is not something we can imagine? Fourth Master is making things difficult for us." Wu Sidao and Monk Wenjue looked at each other, and then looked at Yinzhi with some surprise. They were not surprised by the complaints about Kangxi revealed in Yinzhen's words. With his personality, it would be strange if he didn't complain. However, this fourth prince has always been very slight and will revenge. Last time he was embarrassed in Anhui, he almost hated Ma De to the core, but today he blamed Kangxi for not protecting Ma De and others. Could it be that he suddenly changed his nature?

"It seems that we have to find an opportunity to tell the Emperor Ama... Alas, although the Qing Dynasty is now prosperous, it has begun to decay inside. The Eight Banners are the pillars of the country. Every day, they only know how to live and die in their lives and dream of walking birds and dogs. There are many ministers and officials who are hypocritical, but after reading so many books of sages, most of these people are ashamed of being honest. The treasury is full and rare in history, but the people have no support in their lives... In this situation, if the country is disabled again, how can the country be able to bear it?" Yinzhen looked worried and shook his head and sighed.

"The Fourth Master is worried about the country and the people. This is a great act of good deeds. However, everything must be cautious and must not be reckless!" Monk Wenjue heard Yinzhen want to talk to Kangxi for Old Man Fei and others, and hurriedly advised him.

What Yinzhen could have imagined, would Kangxi not have imagined? The emperor is not in a hurry, why are you a prince? You are not the prince!

"The monk is probably worried too much. In Wu's opinion, the Fourth Master has been in the mansion for a long time, and it is time to go out and walk around!" Wu Sidao suddenly smiled.

"What does Mr. Wu say?" Yinzhen was happy when he heard this and asked hurriedly.

"Among the princes, the Fourth Master, who thinks can go south to meet the British envoy?" Wu Sidao asked with a smile.

"This..." Yinzhen lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, then looked up and said, "The thirteenth brother is the son of the Imperial Concubine Dunmin. He has always been close to Ma De. His knowledge in these matters should be stronger than the rest of us. He should be on an envoy and he will not mislead the matter!"

"Haha, it's not bad. The Thirteenth Master will not mislead. But I'm afraid it's just not misleading the matter. Wu wanted to ask the Fourth Master, the Thirteenth Prince is better than the other princes in this matter, but can he be as good as Ma De? Will the Emperor not know the situation in this situation and want the princes to fight together? No!" Wu Sidao said with a smile.

"What does the emperor mean?" Yinzhen asked anxiously.

"The emperor's meaning, I think I am afraid I want to take advantage of the opportunity of taking the exam to get you all out of the mansion and get you some experience!" Wu Sidao said.

"Training? But now in the court..." Yinzhen stopped talking.

"Now the court is full of the prince, the power of the old man and the eighth master, the emperor pulled out all the princes. Is it because he wants to make the water even more muddy?" Monk Wen Jue asked Yinzhen's doubts.

"Among all the princes, except for the prince, the fourth master, and the eighth master, who has ever done anything? However, the prince has caused trouble frequently, and the throne is already extremely unstable; the eighth master favors and forms a party when he clears the deficit last time, and he has done halfway to make the emperor angry. Although the Fourth Master's trip in Anhui was a righteous heart, he still failed to satisfy the emperor..." Wu Sidao said this, glanced at Yinzhen slightly, and saw that Yinzhen was not displeased by his mention of Anhui, so he continued: "In addition, the emperor has ascended the throne for forty-five years, and at this time, he must have been worried about not having a suitable crown prince. If he doesn't step up the time to choose one, I'm afraid..."

I'm afraid there will be less time!

Although Wu Sidao's real words were not finished, how could Yinzhen and Monk Wenjue not know what he meant?

"So, is it just a reason to choose the prince to go south this time?" Monk Wen Jue asked again.

"It should be no mistake. The beauty of going south is bad. All the princes are princes, and no one is worse than each other. How can one compare with just one thing? Therefore, the emperor will definitely find excuses to arrange things for the princes who cannot go south. If Wu guessed well, after the Fourth Master's note was handed over, it would not take long for the order to come down!" Wu Sidao said.

"Yeah!..." Yinzhen clenched his fists and nodded slightly.

Yinzhen left. Wu Sidao and Monk Wenjue started playing chess again. However, Wenjue learned his lesson and did not make bets with Wu Sidao anymore. Moreover, he no longer played blind chess, and that thing was too brain-intensive.

"That's a pity for Ferdinand." As he went down, Monk Wenjue suddenly said to Wu Sidao again.

"What a pity? What a pity?" Wu Sidao asked indifferently.

"I obviously want to serve the country with all my skills, but in the end it is a waste. How could it be a pity?" Wen Jue said.

"Yes. It's a pity! This is the end of Mingzhe's self-protection!... All scholars in the world learn "The Doctrine of the Mean". Who told them not to understand the way of self-protection? After offending so many people, they should leave it to the new king as a way to gain authority and concentrate their hearts!" Wu Sidao said.

"You mean, the emperor protects them today, but actually gives..." Wen Jue was shocked and couldn't help but make a gesture of wiping his neck.

"Yes, I offended so many people. Now the Holy Family is even jealous of the four ministers in the study room, let alone the civil and military officials. After the new king ascended the throne, he can kill him... and buy! People! Heart!" Wu Sidao locked a black piece on the chessboard, staring at Wen Jue and said softly.

"How could this be so?" Wen Jue was stunned by Wu Sidao's words and couldn't help but mutter to himself. He was not shocked by the expected destiny of Old Man Fei and others, but was scared by Kangxi's thoughts. He did not expect that Kangxi's rumbled holy favor to Old Man Fei and others would actually want to send these people to death and give them to his successor to kill. This kind of scheming is so terrible.

"The emperor is the lord of the world and needs to sit firmly in the world. All the people in his eyes are just ants! Now, among the princes, no one has enough prestige to lead the world. Therefore, no matter who succeeds to the throne, if you want to quickly stabilize the situation after ascending the throne, you can only establish your authority and... win people's hearts!" Wu Sidao's lips curled slightly and continued.

"Does... have to be killed?" Wen Jue felt a chill in his heart. Wu Sidao said, he didn't feel like he was talking about Old Man Fei and others.
