Emperor Kangxi sent me to marry

Chapter 120 The Prince

After listening to Chen Shuyi's explanation, Hai Feng decided that no matter what, she would fight this man-eating Shanxi governor.

No wonder, everyone wants to be an official.

Fire consumption of money is the gray income of local officials, subsidizing meager salaries, it has always been like this, but it is nothing.

Kangxi may not know
On the basis of taxation, adding [-]% is not far from it.

But this governor collects a tael of silver as a tax, and has to take another tael of silver from the common people for fire consumption.

Outrageous!

Hai Feng was so angry that he wanted to laugh.

This is really the most profitable business in the world, faster than loan sharks.The loan shark requires principal, and he doesn't even need the principal. The common people owe him money every day when they open their eyes.

She could save Axiang, but the world was blackmailed by corrupt officials, her family was ruined, and there were more than tens of thousands of girls who were worse than Axiang?
If good officials like Qian Yu and Jin Fu cannot be kept, won't all the officials in the world be in a mess?

Isn't the capital of their sensuality the blood and sweat of ordinary people?
Haifeng was full of anger and entered the Yanxi Palace of Concubine Hui.

"Mistress Hui doesn't need to be busy, I will leave after a few words."

Seeing that she was not smiling as usual, Concubine Hui quickly sent out all the irrelevant people.

"What's the matter, just say it."

"Big brother doesn't want to see me, so don't see me. Anyway, we have helped each other in Mongolia. There are some things I have to say. Mingzhu is insidious and cunning, unfathomable. I advise big brother, don't be with him. Khan Sooner or later, Ma will dislike him, and big brother will be implicated along with him. This is what the ancestors said. Big brother is willing to listen best."

After finishing speaking, Hai Feng ignored Concubine Hui's efforts to persuade her to stay, and went directly to Yikun Palace for dinner.

On the way, she was thinking about what to do.

Compassion does not save oneself.

If elder brother had to be with Mingzhu, then she had no choice.

Even if she moved Xiaozhuang out, she might not be able to compete with the recruiting of cabinet scholars.

Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks.

"Let's change the route and go to the Prince's brother's Yuqing Palace. Shu Tai will go and answer my aunt, and don't have to wait for me to go back for dinner."

Because they often came here to help last year, the eunuchs in Yuqing Palace were very considerate to Haifeng, and immediately spread the word.

Hai Feng only acts arrogantly as a prince, and will not see her easily, but he did not expect not only to go in, but also get a nice dinner.

"My brother seems to have figured out a lot."

"I didn't figure it out. However, no one in the palace dared to come to see me, for fear that Ama Khan would get angry. So you come here."

Seeing his awkward look, Hai Feng wanted to laugh, but tried his best to hold back.

"Don't you know, brother? Khan Ama also annoyed me. If you are afraid, I will go back."

"Who's afraid? Come on, go and add food to the fourth sister!"

The cook in Yuqing Palace was better than that in Qianqing Palace, Haifeng unceremoniously disposed of a large plate of cumin leg of lamb, and drank the best Pu'er after the meal.

"Big brother knows about the nobleman Eneguo, right?"

"Well, Prince An Fujin told me. Anyway, I don't understand you. Having my own Ernie by my side is not better than anything else? I don't even know what Ernie looks like, only a few portraits."

Perhaps the prince was lonely for too long, and he managed to find a living person. While talking, he even found out the portrait of Queen Hesheli and asked Haifeng to look at it together.

"How is it? Khan Ama said that these are not well drawn, and there are only five images at most. Ernie is actually much better than this."

Hai Feng had also seen the portrait of Queen Hesheli before, but never seen it so clearly.

Her appearance was submerged in the incense for ancestor worship, hidden deep in the costumes and jewelry, leaving only a rich outline in the distance.

But these few portraits are painted in ordinary clothes, or playing the piano, or reading a book, and the eyebrows and eyes are carefully drawn.

Hai Feng didn't dare to say it, but she really felt that both her mother and Concubine De were a bit like Queen Hesheli.

It's not that the facial features are similar, but the demeanor.

At the first glance, it looks peaceful and happy, but if you taste it slowly, you can see sorrow and sadness.

Also, there is nothing to do.

"It's hard for painters to understand the beauty of the empress. Only Khan Ama can see her beauty up close."

"What you said is true. Khan Ama has a portrait he painted for Ernie. Although it is not as exquisite as the painter, it is lifelike. Ernie smiles more freely. Khan Ama easily refuses to let me see it, always Take it yourself."

After finishing the painting, Haifeng played chess with the prince again.

She accidentally discovered that the prince's chess skills are quite average, and it is even difficult to beat a beginner like her.

I don't know whether Chen Shuyi's rank is too high and the tricks taught to her are good, or the prince's master is not dedicated enough.

"Why doesn't my brother like me?"

The prince's chess was in full swing, but he uttered the truth unintentionally.

"Who said I don't like you? Among the princesses, I like you the most. You are good-looking and clever. What I don't like is your forehead."

"Why doesn't brother like Dobb?"

"Hey, listen, it's so affectionate. You haven't even issued a formal marriage edict. Your heart has flown to Mobei."

Seeing his younger sister's eyes were red with embarrassment, the prince dropped the chess piece and coaxed her gently.

"Don't cry, brother is wrong. I have good agarwood incense here, and I will give it to you."

Hai Feng didn't intend to cry at first, but after hearing what he said, he suddenly felt very sad for some reason.

In the previous life, the crown prince and the fourth elder brother sent her to Kulun, and returned to the capital the next day with a fake yuan handkerchief, without saying a word.

Dobu was on military duty, so he could only accompany her for three days, and he left soon.

It was snowing heavily in Mobei, and it was hard to go anywhere. Staying in the tent was like being in prison. It was cold, and she didn't dare to complain.

The more she thought about it, the more wronged she became, and she really shed tears.

"Who cares about your broken incense, people who come to see you with good intentions will be ridiculed. My younger sister will marry so far away in the future, and when she becomes an older brother, she won't feel sorry for her."

The prince saw that she was really angry and embarrassed.He had never apologized to anyone in his life, and he was speechless for a long time, so he had to change his way.

"If there is anything in my palace that my younger sister likes, just take it. From now on, I won't make things difficult for my grandson Taiji. To be honest, he has never offended me, and he is very courteous."

"Then what do you hate about him?"

"He, he is stealing my limelight! Why is he so good at archery and horseback riding even though he is one year younger than me?"

"Brother is really interesting. What crime did my sister do to marry a Mongolian who can't ride and shoot?"

When the prince was asked this question, although he felt that something was wrong, he understood.

Yes, as a Mongolian, it is strange that he is not skilled in bowing horses.

If it is compared to calligraphy, Changsun Taiji must not be able to compare with him.

"Oh, yes, you're right. Oh, don't cry. I'm so confused when I cry. What are you going to do?"

Hai Feng blinked his big wet eyes, and suddenly had an idea.

"Brother led me to have a look, Khan Ama kept it, the portrait of Queen Hesheli."
