The last paragraph of the previous chapter says, "I was punished by Cai Ban a few months ago and was confiscated by Shang Fang's sword." It is wrong. According to the chapter, it should be two years ago.

The first half of the 52nd year of Kangxi passed quickly. Apart from Kangxi's 60th birthday and Yuzhong's attack on Myanmar, nothing big happened, both above the temple and between the rivers and lakes. Although during this period, Kangxi ordered the establishment of a "Xihai Navy" and appointed Nian Gengyao as the navy's admiral and awarded the title of "General Yangwei", but because he was still restricted by the South China Sea Navy, the so-called Xihai Navy's strength was enhanced compared to the previous one, and it could only be said that it was a change of soup and no medicine. Apart from having some good names, Nian Gengyao did not get any practical benefits. Although the Nian General was very dissatisfied with this matter, his qualifications were naturally far from enough to bargain with the court and Kangxi.

"The emperor just issued an order to grant the title of marquis of the first-class Xiangyuan in the middle class, and also issued an order to use Ma De as the governor of Jiangnan, and worked hard and made great contributions to the country, and promoted to the third-class marquis, and remained as the governor of Jiangnan..."

In the suburbs of Beijing, Changchun Garden is about one mile north of the Old Summer Palace. This garden was given to the fourth prince Yinzhen in the 48th year of Kangxi. Every time Kangxi went to Changchun Garden to escape the summer heat, Yinzhen lived here when he went to accompany him.

"Xiangyuanhou?... Well, the word "Xiang" is called Xiang: the armor is hard, and the armor is called Xiang: the reason for the matter is called Xiang: the mind is about to overcome the gang, and the saying "Xiang" is called Xiang: the word "Xiang" is called Xiang, and the word "Xiang" is called Xiang. The word "Xiang" in the middle can be said to be called "Xiang" is called "Xiang"!" Wu Sidao seemed not to hear the meaning of Yinzhen's words asking for advice, but seemed to be interested in the title of Zhong.

"Mr. Wu..." Yinzhen looked at Wu Sidao with a little dissatisfaction, thought for a while, but finally did not continue to ask. If Wu Sidao had something to say, he would naturally say it, just like the time not long ago... The Lifanyuan was ordered by the Holy See to investigate someone's private sale of firearms to Japan. As a result, he checked it over and over again.

It was found that Dai Duo, who had just been transferred to Ren Daotai in Hunan, and after going around a circle, it was found that a central army under Nian Gengyao had appeared in Osaka more than a year ago. According to Temasek's entry and exit records, the central army surnamed Chai did return to China for business under military orders more than a year ago... If Dai Duo and Nian Gengyao had just one of them had a problem, he could naturally use the excuse that they were acting privately and said that this matter had nothing to do with him. However, this time, the two were found together, and both of them were also his vassal gatekeepers, so the spearhead of this matter was naturally directed at him, Prince Yong. He sold firearms to Japan. Two years ago, Kangxi ordered the use and manufacturing of firearms to strictly control the use and manufacturing of firearms, and also specially sent the eighth son Yinsi to Fengtian.

In charge of the firearm manufacturing matters there, now someone sells it privately to Japan... Even if he is a prince, he will definitely not be able to bear such a thing. So at that time, he was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He wanted to call this guy to the mansion while Nian Gengyao was in the capital to ask for it, but Wu Sidao suddenly came forward to tell him that he should be calm and behave no differently than usual. He must not show any anxiety, and he should not pay attention to Nian Gengyao. As a result, as expected, the matter passed so peacefully. Although Dai Duo was demoted to Guangxi for some mistakes after this incident, Nian Gengyao was still promoted, although not much promotion was actually promoted. But the matter finally stopped there and did not develop further. The Lifanyuan also seemed to have stopped investigating the matter.

"It took the emperor so long to promote Yu Zhong to the title and let Ma De remain in his original position. Fourth Master, do you know that something is wrong?" Yinsi was indeed wrong. After waiting for a while, Wu Sidao finally spoke.

"The Emperor Ama wants to see if there are any candidates in the court who can replace these two people..." Yinzhen replied.

"Hehe, Fourth Master, you made a mistake!" Wu Sidao smiled slightly, shook his head and said.

"Oh? What does that Emperor Ama mean? It's because he is about to celebrate his birthday.

This is how to delay the matter, right?" Yinsi asked back.

"The delay was delayed because of the birth of life. This is an open reason; see if there are any other candidates in the court who can replace the two of them. This is a private reason... However, Fourth Master, these two are actually not the emperor's real plans!" Wu Sidao stretched out a finger and shook slightly.

"None of them?" Yinzhen became confused, "What is the old man who is the emperor?"

"There is no secret in the court. On the surface, privately, many people in the court actually know these two reasons, especially the privately. I am afraid that many officials are very jealous after hearing about it!" Wu Sidao gently stroked the crutch in his hand, "But, Fourth Master, do you know?... Why do the ministers in the court clearly know these reasons, but in fact, not many people came forward to advise the emperor, letting Yu and Ma, especially Ma De leave the position? Could it be... they are unwilling to be the governor of Jiangnan? This is the greatest land fat in the world!"

"This...they...they...they...they's words made Yinzhen's mind flash, but he didn't know what to do, but he couldn't catch the key points.

"Because everyone knows that the three provinces in the south of the Yangtze River are Ma De's territory. If Ma De doesn't want to do so, even if the emperor changes others to go there, he may not be able to sit firmly as the governor! The matter of going to the business in Zhejiang is a lesson from the past!" Wu Sidao said in a deep voice.

"Since that's the case, why did the Emperor still send out the signal of a 'substitution,'" Yinsi's face also sank.

The influence in the local area was even greater than that of the emperor, and it was the richest provinces of Jiangnan in the Qing Dynasty... Thinking of this, a faint sense of anger popped up in his heart, but while this anger popped up, he also felt a strong pressure and pressed towards him.

"The emperor probably wants to see what the ministers in the court are about Zhong, especially towards Ma De... If the ministers in the court attacked Ma De at that time, even if only one important minister came forward, the position of Governor of Jiangnan would have to be replaced. However, this situation is not..." Wu Sidao shook his head and sighed. He seemed to be very disappointed with the performance of those ministers, just like Kangxi.

"Mr. Wu, why didn't you say that at that time? The Lord was worried about the insult of the minister! If you told me in advance, I would definitely come out to give advice to the Emperor Ama personally, how could he be so sad?" Yinsi stood up suddenly and said loudly, waving his fists.

"Fourth Master. You can't do it. You are the prince. How could the emperor treat you as a scapegoat? Moreover, if the emperor agrees to you, you may not be able to rise again in the future." Wu Sidao shook his head and said.

"How could it be?" Yinsi was stunned. Sharing the emperor's worries should be a meritorious person, and he would become a scapegoat? However, this thought just wandered around his heart and he realized. Why would he become a scapegoat if he made merit? Because what the emperor needs is a scapegoat. And sending himself to the door is the credit!

"There are not many officials in the three provinces of Jiangnan who are Yu Zhong's confidants, so as long as the emperor gives orders to replace him, it will be difficult for Ma De to continue his post. However, no matter who becomes the governor of Jiangnan, as long as it is not Ma De, more than 90% of Jiangnan may be in chaos.

However, the reason for this result is of course not, nor can it be because the emperor is not aware of the position of the emperor. It is because the new Jiangnan Governor was mishandled. He has the hope of losing his holy... Fourth Master, where are the three provinces of Jiangnan? If it is really in chaos, it will be a crime to lose his head." Wu Sidao stretched out his hand and gestured his neck with a wry smile and shook his head. Ferdinand, Yu Zhong, Ma De, Ferdinand and Yu Zhong were also very powerful, but it was not difficult for Kangxi to deal with. Now, Ferdinand has been idle. It is very easy for Kangxi to move Yu Zhong, because Kangxi has been rotating the generals around Yu Zhong, so, except for the thousands of personal soldiers around him, Yu Zhong cannot incite other generals to rebel with him. As long as Kangxi gives the order, the great general Zhenyuan will only become a bachelor. However, Ma De is different. It is not difficult to replace Ma De, the key is

How can the court deal with the chaos that is likely to occur after replacing Ma De? You must know that in addition to having connections with many big businesses, Ma De and the person named Mo Jing also control extremely huge amounts of money in their own hands. Once this money is used, the consequences will be unpredictable. Wu Sidao actually does not agree with Kangxi's idea of ​​finding a scapegoat to replace Ma De. Even if the responsibility can be pushed to others and the responsibility of the court is cleared, the chaos will definitely occur. With Ma De and others' means, even if there is money in the treasury, how long can it last? Moreover, with such a plan to find a scapegoat, he has to wait for the court officials to come to his door. This is another manifestation of worrying about gains and losses and hesitation. It seems even more ridiculous. Therefore, Wu Sidao felt that Kangxi was old, and the old lacked courage, and the old began to lack courage to make decisions.

"What should we do?" The situation facing the court made Yinzhen suddenly feel discouraged. He, who has always been self-deprecatingly, suddenly felt a sense of powerlessness.

"Secretly crossing Chen Cang! Cut off the firewood from the cauldron!" Wu Sidao said softly with his eyes rolled over.

"What do you mean?" Yinsi asked hurriedly.

"In the past few years, Wu has been thinking hard about how to respond to Zhong, Mad, Ferdinand and others. However, the more I think about it, the more I feel that these people are so powerful that it is simply daunting." Master Wu Si breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Yinzhen's face in question, and his voice changed, "However, there is a Taoist that all things are born and defeated. Although these people are strong in ability and powerful, they are not impeccable. Moreover, these flaws are caused by themselves."

"Oh? Sir, tell me quickly..." As long as there is a flaw! Yinsi shouted in his heart.

"Second Master, do you know the textile factories in Jiangbei and Jiangnan?" Wu Sidao asked.

"I naturally know this!" Yinsi replied. Over the past ten years, with the application of several advanced textile tools, the rich people were like dry firewood hitting fire. For a time, textile factories were opened everywhere. Moreover, while these factories created a lot of taxes, many ordinary people also had another place to work, and could make some money in the slack season. However, although Yinzhen also agreed with this kind of thing, a large number of textile factories caused more people to be unable to use looms to make a living for themselves, which also made him feel very uncomfortable.

"What are the raw materials for those textile mills?" Wu Sidao was not in the mood to care about Yinsi's opinion on the textile mill, and continued to ask.

"Cotton, linen, wool..." Yinzhen answered casually, and immediately raised his head, "Sir, do you mean to control these raw materials?"

"No!" Wu Sidao smiled mysteriously, "Second Master, if you control these raw materials, you will only shut down the textile mills. Those owners who open factories will lose their income for at most one or two years, but those workers will be in trouble. So many factories, so many workers, and their families and relatives... this will cause public grudges."

"That sir means..." Yinsi frowned again.

"Fourth Master, the Qing Dynasty originated in Manchuria! What does Manchuria look like today?" Wu Sidao asked with a smile again.

"Manchuria?...it's natural that's good!" Yinzhen didn't understand what Wu Sidao meant, so he could only answer in a general way. There were fewer people in Manchuria, more land, and more money, of course it was good!

"Yuzhong, Mad and Ferdinand all started in Manchuria. The reason why they were enabled by the emperor was also because they governed their respective areas of Manchuria. Although Manchuria could not be said to be deserted everywhere, it was not much stronger. But now? The rich people there were probably better than many provinces in the pass... Moreover, Manchuria merchants were closely connected with the princes and nobles in Mongolia! Think about it, if these people suddenly had a mind to enter the pass and do business, with their strength and control of wool production on almost the entire grassland, would those people in the pass still compete with them?" Wu Sidao said with a smile.

"Come on! Case... Sir, your move is really a way to get rid of the firewood from the cauldron!" Yinzhen's heart rose again and walked around the room excitedly. What does it mean that there is no way out in the mountains and clear waters?

This is another village with dark flowers and flowers. Yu Zhong and Ma De probably never thought that their place of success was also their fatality today? He shot himself in the foot, wonderful, wonderful!

"Although those outside the pass have a good relationship with Ferdinand and Ma De, they may not be able to sell their face when they are in the face. If the court intervenes in this way, another huge force will inevitably form outside the pass, and as long as they are guided properly, this force will only obey the royal family forever. And in this way, why be afraid of Ma De and others?" Wu Sidao said with a smile. Textile mills are the most profitable and engaged in the industry in recent years. As long as they control the dominance of this industry, coupled with the financial resources of Manchu merchants and the court, even if chaos occurs, the court should be able to deal with it.

"Mr.'s plan is indeed extraordinary. I will immediately find a way to report this matter to the Emperor!"

Yinsi was very excited. Since returning from Jiangnan, although he had been silently assisting Zhang Tingyu, Shi Shilun and others in charge of the rectification of the administration, he was not good at having anything outstanding. In addition, when Kangxi celebrated his birthday not long ago, he received news that the eighth brother seemed to be together with the nineth brother and the tenth brother again, which made him feel very depressed. But now it is different. If he can solve the problem of Ma De and the big troubles of the court, and the court can control a large number of assets, in Kangxi's mind, his status will definitely rise a lot. At that time, who can still compete with him?

...

"Master..." Yinzhen said goodbye to Wu Sidao excitedly and turned back to his room. Just as he was thinking about how to report Wu Sidao's method to Kangxi, Gao Fu'er ran out of nowhere.

"What's the matter?" Yinsi was in a very good mood today, so he was not unhappy with Gao Fuer's disturbance.
