Anti-Qing: I'm actually an honest person

Chapter 24 The First Old Fox in the Qing Dynasty

Pingnan Palace.

Shang Kexi, who was already 70 years old, woke up surrounded by six bed warming maids on the bed. He always felt insomnia, but he managed to get a good night's sleep yesterday.

This batch of bed warming girls is not bad.

After waking up, the back kitchen made a bowl of sparrow tongue soup. As I was eating, I suddenly felt that there was a hard object in my mouth. When I opened my mouth, I spit out a tooth.

Shang Kexi was stunned for a moment, then quickly picked up a small and delicate diorama and took a picture of his mouth.

All gone.

The teeth that could chew bones and swallow them into the stomach when I was young are all gone, and the one that fell out just now is already the last one.

This made Shang Kexi couldn't help picking up the tooth and staring at it blankly for half a quarter of an hour.

"It's not good, father, it's not good."

The eldest son Shang Zhixin rushed in in a panic, and as soon as he came in, he drank Shang Kexi's leftover half bowl of sparrow tongue soup wholeheartedly, and said, "Father, something serious has happened."

"That little bastard Kangxi forcibly withdrew the domain?"

"That's not it."

"Then it's nothing serious." As he said that, Shang Kexi still stared at his old tooth, feeling very sad.

"Just this morning, Liu Bingquan and Jin Guangzu wrote letters to recommend that Liu Xun. One recommended him to be our Guangdong inspector, and the other recommended him to replace Liu Jinzhong as the Chaozhou General Army. Father, they are going to betray us!"

Shang Kexi frowned slightly, and said: "If I'm not wrong, Liu Bingquan went to Chaozhou to win over this Liu Xun, and Jin Guangzu went to Guangxi to meet Sun Yanling."

"Father, you are really clever."

"Hey~" Shang Kexi sighed, finally put down the dentures in his hand and said: "They are looking for a way out for themselves, even they have already decided that His Majesty's intention to cut down the feudal clan is very firm."

"Father, if Your Majesty really insists on cutting down the feudal clan, then we... are we really going to oppose it?"

"What do you mean?"

"Even if we cut down the vassal, whether we go to Beijing or go back to our hometown outside the customs, we will never lose the title of prince, but if it's the other way around..."

Shang Kexi laughed loudly when he heard the words, and said: "You are right, I am seventy this year, the so-called people over seventy are rare in ancient times, look, I don't even have a single tooth in my mouth now, To be honest, I really wish I could return to my hometown in Liaodong to live up to my old age. I have lived in Guangdong for more than [-] years, but I am still not used to it. After all, I am already this age, so what else can I worry about? ? Just, what about you?"

"If you really want to raise your troops to rebel, the odds of winning... are [-]%?"

"It's hard to say, I can't say that there are not even [-]% of them, but these old subordinates of mine, counting from Pidao, have followed me for more than [-] years in the South and North Wars. Let's say your personal guard Li Daudao, he Grandpa was my personal guard back then, and his father saved my life back then. After fifty years of ups and downs, he finally settled down in this Guangdong province, married a wife, gave birth to a son, and lived a happy life. It’s been a good day, what a pity, now that Kangxi sent an imperial decree to let them accompany us back to Liaodong to suffer? Leave it alone and do it! Anyway, there is still [-]% hope to win, otherwise, they won’t kill you in exchange A Pingnan King?"

"The child understands."

"You understand what a der! Hit me."

"what?"

Shang Kexi slapped Shang Zhixin's face with his mouth, "I'll let you hit me."

Shang Zhixin looked confused: "Father? My son absolutely dare not."

"You don't even dare to hit me, so you still want to rebel?"

As he spoke, he raised his hand and gave Shang Zhixin a big mouthful.

But he was irritated by Shang Zhixin's beating: "What the hell, Dad, don't make trouble for no reason, okay, are you old and confused?"

"I'm just old and confused, come and hit me."

With that said, Shang Kexi picked up the walking stick and slapped Shang Zhixin again.

Shang Zhixin had no choice but to snatch the walking stick with his hands: "Oh, dad, what kind of monster are you?"

"Well, you little bastard, how dare you beat your father."

"........."

"I can't control you anymore. I can't stay in Guangdong for a day. I'm going to write to His Majesty now, requesting to retire from old age and return to my hometown. I want to ask, ask the big guys, old brothers, who is willing to follow me?" Walk."

Shang Zhixin was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "Father, what you mean is that you will be a loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty, and I will be the rebel of the Qing Dynasty? In this way, no matter whether the military uprising is successful or not, the family can be preserved. At least, Protecting my family's ancestral grave? You are trying to let the child bear the name of unfilial piety."

"I have already recited the name of infidelity, what is the difference between the word unfilial?"

Shang Zhixin's face was cloudy when he heard the words, and he said after a long time: "I understand."

"Understood? If you understand, why don't you let your father cut you two more sticks?"

Shang Zhixin had no choice but to run around the palace with his head in his arms, causing Shang Kexi to chase and beat him with a walking stick for more than half an hour, but he didn't dare to really fight back. Confused", "old man" and other vicious words to show the discord between father and son.

Within three days, the news that Prince Pingnan and his son were at odds and that Shang Zhixin was an unfilial bastard spread throughout Guangzhou.

Then, it was Shang Kexi and Shang Zhixin who were going to split their families in a grand manner, saying that they would go back to their hometown in Liaodong to live up to their old age, and would like to ask these old brothers who would like to go with him?
However, it was almost as imagined. Among the more than 2 Pingnan Prince's Army, only more than 1000 people expressed their willingness to follow Shang Kexi back to their hometown in Liaodong, and the others all stood on Shang Zhixin's side.

Later, Shang Kexi wrote a letter to Kangxi, saying that Shang Zhixin was not filial, that he could not control him, and that he bullied himself, and asked Kangxi to allow him to lead the former warriors back to his hometown in Liaodong to return to his roots, and to transfer the title of King Pingnan to Shang Zhixin in advance.

After that, it was a person who shut himself in the room, couldn't help finding out the imperial decree of Huang Taiji when he canonized himself as a king with a different surname, and watched it repeatedly, feeling deeply saddened.

The imperial edict clearly stated: "Take all the soldiers and civilians, carry all the armor and equipment, endure dangers and adventures, sail back and forth, make great achievements and great achievements, stand out from the crowd, and sincerely commend them."

But after looking at it for a long time, he simply burned this imperial decree that he cherished for more than 40 years.

　According to historical records, Shang Kexi was an upright and loyal minister of the Qing Dynasty. He resolutely refused to rebel because he couldn't control his son Shang Zhixin, and the father and son turned against each other.

　　Anyway, I don't believe it, this old traitor is loyal to Kangxi?For this reason, he did not hesitate to turn against his family and the old department?It's so inhuman.

　　Besides, he is gratifying. At the end of the Ming Dynasty, Mao Wenlong wanted to give him three points, and Yuan Chonghuan had nothing to do with him. The old warlord who had commanded the army for more than [-] years suddenly let his own son deprive him of all military power and put him under house arrest when he was old. He hanged himself and was rescued, just like a joke.

　　My book is based on me. I really can't accept the setting of Shang Kexi, an iron-boned loyal minister. It seems more appropriate to me.
