Chapter 150
Yinreng pricked up his ears and listened to Kangxi talking to Yao Qisheng. The emperor felt a lot of emotion when he saw Yao Qisheng's hair gray.
Yao Qisheng was a young man who was "champagne-dominated" back then, and he was a young emperor who had just succeeded to the throne. Now the young man with his sharp hair was frosty and his back was hunched over. However, the young emperor had grown into a sharp lion.
Time will ruthlessly urge people to grow old, and it will also craft a person to mature through hardships.
Kangxi sighed lightly: "Xizhi has caused me a lot of problems this time."
Yao Qisheng's name is Xizhi, which was affectionately called by the emperor. Time flies back to the time when the king and his ministers met each other in the past.
Yao Qisheng was slightly stunned and his eyes were red: "I know the crime."
Yinreng tilted his head and was confused.
Isn’t he a great hero to pacify Taiwan? Why did he become guilty again?
"More than 47,000 treasury of gold," Kangxi shook his head: "If the Ministry of Revenue does not approve it, you will embezzle it yourself. Do this, and you will see where the national law is."
Yao Qisheng knelt down to worship the emperor and refused to regret: "Time does not wait for others, military opportunities must not be missed. When the general is outside, the king's orders are not given. In order to win, the minister has no choice but to do so. When he returns to the capital this time, he will apologize to the emperor in person. The merits, demerits, right and wrong, and the fortunes and lives of the ministers are all subject to the emperor. The emperor will give me justice."
"Just? National law is more important than justice. You have asked me this problem, but I am sure that I will not kill you if I have done so?"
Kangxi smiled angrily, staring at Yao Qisheng's old face that could still be seen, and his blood pressure was surging up.
Xiaomei reported to Yinreng about Kangxi's not so stable hypertension and exclaimed.
[It turns out that not only the older friends will make their father angry and their blood pressure rise, but also the ministers have the courage to make the emperor angry and their blood pressure rise!] Yao Qisheng still said: "I know I am guilty, but I don't regret it."
It is this unruly and stinky temper, Geng Niu's temper, who has made Kangxi love and hate since he was young, has also made Kangxi's temper become popular.
太子气他,康熙还能动动手揍他小屁股,给儿子一顿父爱如山的问候,姚启圣气他,他总不能揍姚启圣一顿.
The old minister was sick and sick as he was old. Maybe he would die if he was struggling. How could Kangxi attack the heroes at this critical moment?
This time Yao Qisheng returned to the capital, not only did he not receive the expected reward, but in fact, Kangxi had no intention of recalling him at all.
In addition to the great contribution and the reward was beyond reward, Yao Qisheng also carved nearly 47,000 taels of "treasury" of nearly 47,000 taels of "treasury".
The treasury of gold is not just gold, it is gold in the national treasury!
This large amount of money was used by him to build ships and transform armies. This was the minister who used the treasury wealth without authorization. This time he returned to the capital, the two ministers of the Ministry of Revenue were excited. The first thing was to participate in Yao Qisheng and ask him to pay back the money!
The emperor made great contributions to Yao Qisheng and spent all the wealth he spent in wars. Now that he has won the battle, he is not worthy of rewards, but he will not punish him, and Kangxi feels unwilling to accept it.
Such a minister's vacancies of the treasury without authorization are based on the law, and both moral aspects are unreasonable. If you have to punish, you must punish them severely to serve as a killer to warn the monkey. Otherwise, anyone can embezzle the treasury in the future. Wouldn't the status of the national law become a joke?
Now Yao Qisheng threw the problem to the emperor, looking like he was using any means to win Kangxi. Kangxi was so angry that his nostrils spurted, and finally told Yao Qisheng: "I think you have worked hard and made great contributions, but you can defeat your merits."
As for the Ministry of Revenue that the Ministry of Revenue has been urging Yao Qisheng to repay the money and the treasury vacancy, Kangxi had to pay for it himself.
It was precisely because of his anger that Kangxi ordered Yao Qisheng to return to Fujian to become his Fujian Governor after Zheng Kejun accepted the reward and settled down.
Thunder, rain and dew are all the kindness of the king. Yao Qisheng seemed not surprised by this result, but he felt disappointed by losing the favor of the emperor.
The people serving the palace nearby heard the anger in the emperor's tone, and they all booed and dared not speak. Yinreng blinked and stretched out his neck to see Yao Qisheng, who dared to throw the problem to Khan Ama and asked Khan Ama to clean up the mess himself.
Oh, this donkey is amazing. It will in turn call Khan Ama to grind it!
Yao Qisheng accepted Kangxi's arrangement discouraged. When he knelt down and bowed to the emperor and raised his head, he happened to see the little prince sitting beside the emperor, stretched his neck and stared at him intently.
That look was like seeing a duck breaking into the chicken circle, and Yao Qisheng was the duck that was unique, able to fly and swim.
Kangxi frowned, glanced at Yinreng's reaction, and the corners of his mouth twitched twice.
The emperor coughed lightly and glanced at Yinreng.
The little prince immediately put away his curiosity and sat upright.
After the banquet, Kangxi took Yinreng back to Yuqing Palace, warning him as he walked: "Yao Qisheng is not an 'old minister' like Sha Cheng who is easy to 'bully'. How close this person is to the monster, it is definitely not something you can easily get close to."
As he said that, Kangxi began to count Yao Qisheng's "great achievements".
During the reign of the late emperor, he had just started to become an official, and as soon as he became an official, he cut off the gentry who had offended him before.
Later, I understood some principles of being a human being, and maybe I was beaten up by reality and woke up, and then I gave up my official position and returned home after another disagreement.
He made many contributions and was promoted back again. As a result, he relied on his position to secretly release the sea ban under his own rule when he was banning the sea. At that time, in order to resist Zheng Chenggong's attack, the Qing Dynasty forced the coastal people to move inward, which is the so-called "transfer order".
The court ordered that the people were not allowed to return to their hometowns, but Yao Qisheng allowed the people under his jurisdiction to return to their hometowns.
All these things are the opposite of the imperial court. If he hadn't really been very smart and close to the demons, he would have made great contributions to the emperor, and he would have been the only one who had long been the case.
Kangxi said: "For hundreds of years, only Yao Qisheng has been a strange man in the world. The Qing Dynasty created a Yao Qisheng, and it was so rare that Liu Bei found Zhuge Liang."
But Zhuge Liang was loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and he shared his worries for the monarch in everything. When he arrived at Yao Qisheng, he made all his troubles to clean up some messes for Kangxi.
Despite his complaints, Yinreng heard his complex feelings for Yao Qisheng from Kangxi's words.
This person is a strange man, a rare rare person in the world. After passing this village, there will be no such store.
For this reason, Yao Qisheng made many mistakes, and Kangxi endured it.
Kangxi could only comment on this: "He is too conceited!"
Yinreng said obediently: "However, after Taiwan pacified, Khan Ama has already planned to open the sea ban. There are many memorials asking for the sea ban in recent days. It can be seen that many ministers in the court hope that Khan Ama can open the sea ban. The survival problems of the people in the coastal areas and the trade tariffs of the Qing Dynasty are related to it. It is appropriate to leave this matter to Yao Qisheng, so you will let him go back and continue to be the governor of Fujian. You plan to entrust the important tasks to Lord Yao, and how you say it is like demoting him to the official position."
Kangxi recalled his previous tone and muttered in his heart: "Is there any?"
The emperor felt guilty for a moment and retorted: "With Yao Qisheng's wisdom, he understands my thoughts."
That's why I said that the emperor's heart, the undersea needle, can't guess accurately after guessing.
Yinreng thought about Yao Qisheng's lost back when he took it away, and muttered in a low voice: "He understands your thoughts, why are you still sad?"
Kangxi:???
"Will Yao Qisheng be sad? Do you think he is the same age as you?"
Kangxi sneered, he was an old minister who had been ups and downs in the officialdom for many years. He had long known how long his heart had been trained to become a rock. Everyone would be sad, but Yao Qisheng's bold old minister would not be sad.
Yinreng said oh and took the opportunity to say, "So Khan Ama should speak well. Erchen is not like Lord Yao. Erchen has that 'Lilixin'."
So you have to speak well, otherwise his glass heart will break if it is poked, and something may happen!
Kangxi rubbed his head: "Seeing that you performed well recently and had handled the Eight Banners Parade with Baoqing, I won't scold you anymore. Don't try to instigate others to do everything in the future. Baoqing is not stupid. I will help you this time, but I may not help you next time."
Yinreng whispered: "That Qing navy..."
"I will send Yao Qisheng and Shi Lang to recruit navy in Fujian."
Kangxi paused and his eyes flashed: "I will not be included in the Eight Banners for the time being."
If he is not incorporated into the Eight Banners, he will directly obey the emperor. The soldiers and generals in the army have no relatives and relatives, and only become lonely ministers of the emperor. Compared with the three banners that are prominent in their background and family marriages, they can become the sharp blade that Kangxi can hold in his hands without any scruples.
Yinreng just had to applaud Khan Ama's little seal.
[Not being incorporated into the Eight Banners is a strengthening of military power in the hands for the emperor. The army independent of the old aristocratic forces of the Eight Banners is not affected by the Eight Banners hierarchy. Without the division between Manchu, Mongolia and Han, this team will be active in the East Asian waters as the Qing navy. This is a concept of a country formed by the unanimous externalities and a kind of ethnic integration. Xiaomei could almost predict how the history textbooks would write about the action of the eldest friend’s father in the future, although his original intention was to strengthen centralization.] In the early years, Kangxi strengthened centralization by the method of intra-receiving, inherited from the treatment methods of ancestors and the late emperors, and adopted methods such as blocking, suppressing, and containment.
In recent years, Kangxi has gradually changed this style of work and changed to strengthening centralization in an open manner.
Kangxi was an emperor who loved to issue unique government orders. His government orders were often "innovated" compared with the late emperor's period.
Since he took office, he has taken many political decrees. In recent years, from the establishment of the Ministry of Culture and the imperial examinations to the imperial examination, it is like boiling a frog in warm water, and has not yet caused great reactions or opposition.
I received the opening from the inside, and there was a slight change, but I stepped into another fork in the road.
Not long after Yinreng and Kangxi's conversation, news came from outside the capital that Yao Qisheng was seriously ill.
Yinreng asked Xinyu, and Xinyu replied: "The Imperial Doctor said that Lord Yao was depressed and his old illness recurred, and he was afraid that he would not have much time."
"Old disease, what old disease?! Is it the root of the disease that fell on the battlefield?"
Xinyu explained: "It's malaria."
Yinreng was shocked, and Kangxi was also shocked, so he quickly sent an imperial physician to treat Yao Qisheng.
Yinreng sighed very much, feeling extremely regretful of the loss of a golden donkey. He even complained to Kangxi: "Didn't you say that Lord Yao is an adult? It turns out that he is also a heart of lilac!" Khan Ama's face was swollen into meat buns!
Kangxi: "…"
