Emperor Kangxi: Yuyu Chengxiang

Chapter 28 Xian Ruicao Gao Shiqi won the bid and was surprised by Jin Zihuan, a sweat girl (1)
Gao Shiqi's hard work was not only greatly appreciated by Kangxi, but Xiong Cilu couldn't help but look at him frivolously, and said with a smile: "Since the emperor has granted Shiqi's request, my minister Xiong Cilu will take all the trainees and test Hongru to come tomorrow." The ceremony will be performed in the Wenhua Palace, and the order will be determined by the edict, and I will enter the Qianqing Palace to have an audience!"

Then he talked about the military situation in Yunnan. Kangxi was very excited. He talked for half an hour, and then said: "Wu Shipan has committed suicide, and I have ordered someone to send his head to Beijing. I am afraid that the weather is too hot. It just broke, what a pity!" Everyone laughed.Xiong Cilu frowned and said: "The lost land that has been recovered must be quickly appeased by capable personnel. This is not for fun—after the soldiers cross the border, they often plunder nothing. It is absolutely impossible to let the army plunder!" "In this way—" Kangxi turned to Mingzhu and said, "Ask the Ministry of Officials to quickly select a group of prefectural and county magistrates. The county magistrate will be selected from the Jinshi in the Beiwei this time. Now, an observer envoy will be drafted, and he will bring the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Civil Affairs together to inspect the situation of the army and civilians in Yunnan and Guizhou. If there are any soldiers who become bandits, they will be dealt with on the spot!"

"Do it right now?" Mingzhu couldn't help being startled.

"Well, do it immediately!" Kangxi was so excited that his eyes lit up, "This matter has to be done immediately. Jieshu used troops in Fujian, and the civil affairs left behind was a headache, which made Yao Qisheng personally take Goshha to the countryside to suppress the bandits. Baomin, with the lessons learned from the past, the affairs of Yunnan and Guizhou should be handled more safely-this is the business of your official department!"

Mingzhu frowned and pondered, he was really in trouble.It would not be true to say that he has no suitable candidates in his pocket.When selecting idle officials above the third grade in Beijing, he can immediately propose more than a dozen.But at this time, Jian Ba ​​is the observation envoy to the frontier, and he is a fourth-rank official, so of course he has to choose from the fifth and sixth ranks.Those people who came to see each other on weekdays, handed over notebooks, and reported their resumes, forgot to go to Java.What's more, I'm so busy these days that I didn't even go to the official department. Where can I search for it all of a sudden?In an instant, the word "Xu Qiuren" flashed in his mind, but seeing Gao Shiqi's nonchalant appearance, he thought that he could not recommend Xu anyway.But after thinking about it for a long time, apart from Xu Qiuren, he couldn't think of another one.When Kangxi glanced at Mingzhu again, Mingzhu swallowed helplessly, nodded and sighed: "If there are more than 30 fifth-rank officials waiting for election in Beijing, they are either old or weak, or weak, or the officials are not good enough." Familiar. The old slave pondered for a while, and it turned out to be...Xu Qiuren's best..." Then he recounted Xu Qiuren's resume and job title by heart, and finally said: "This servant is not familiar with him at all. , it was recommended by Gao Shiqi, so it must be good."

Gao Shiqi was clear-eyed in his heart, he just smiled secretly, seeing that he was talking about himself, he hurriedly laughed and said: "We still met in Mingxiang's mansion, who knows that after talking about it, we are still relatives."

"You are from Qiantang, and he is from Acheng. How can you be a relative?" Kangxi was very happy, and asked with a smile.Gao Shiqi, whom he admired in the past, was suave and suave, so he chose to come by his side to sing the wind and play the moon to adjust his temperament. Today, after a little counseling, he knows that his talent and knowledge are not limited by his poems.Compared with the enlightenment master Wu Ciyou, he is chic but not straight; compared with Mingzhu, he is smart but not vulgar; How come there is still a relative who is an official in Beijing? "It's a relative, but it's a little farther away." Gao Shiqi said calmly, "It's the nephew of my cousin Qifu from my mother's family who has never been married." Kangxi couldn't help laughing loudly, pointing at Gao Shiqi and said: "You slave is getting more and more bold and presumptuous, and you dare to talk nonsense in this important place—Which family is your 'bitch'? Tell me and I will marry you!"

Hearing Kangxi's question about Fanglan, Gao Shiqi blushed and said with a quick smile: "Long Live God is willing to marry this slave, it is really a blessing from the virtues accumulated by the ancestors of the slave. It's just that this woman is not a lady from a famous family, but a flower in Fengtai. The daughter of a craftsman. Thanks to the blessings of the ancestors, the servants have become close to the sky. Their whole family rejoiced to express their kindness, and because of the longevity of Lafayette, the wife chose a gift for her..." Except for Mingzhu, no one thought that Gao Shiqi would choose it. A gardener's daughter was the main wife, and she was a little surprised that something happened unexpectedly.Kangxi couldn't help nodding his head in admiration: "When I read "Book of the Later Han", every time I read "Ning Hong Zhuan", I often sigh that the world is going down. 'Wealthy wife, expensive friend' has become a common occurrence today! You're a friend of the poor and humble, don't forget it, the chaff My wife won't go to court', I really appreciate it!" Hearing Kangxi's words, Xiong Cilu couldn't help smiling with his beard.

The pages of the pearl boots originally contained the censor Yu Guozhu's impeachment of Gao Shiqi to extort the house owner's house price, raped the common people's wife, and forcibly married the married woman Fang Lan. I wanted to pass it to Kangxi when there was no one. I heard Kangxi say so Knowing that there was no hope, he couldn't help sighing secretly: "This talent is beyond the reach of others..." But Kangxi said with a smile: "What gift? Come in and see."

Gao Shiqi had heard that the Hu family filed a lawsuit against the government in Shuntian Mansion, and had been worried that the censors would sue him. With Kangxi's words, his heart suddenly fell to the ground. He buckled his head tightly, walked out to the study, came in with the pot of flowers in his arms, and carefully lifted the silk silk.When everyone looked at it, it was a small wooden barrel with three fine iron hoops. The outside was painted with tung oil varnish several times, and it was as transparent and bright as amber.The barrel is lush and full of plump and tender leaves, so green that it seems to be rolling out of the barrel.Gao Shiqi put the barrel away, and said to Kangxi solemnly: "The empress dowager is coming to celebrate her birthday. With the joy of long live, I respectfully present this grass to extend the life of Lafayette!"

Several people were stunned for a moment. What Xiong Cilu presented were some calligraphy and paintings of Dong Xiangguang, books, fans, longevity noodles, and longevity peaches, totaling about 200 taels of silver.Mingzhu was ingenious. She used the thousand-year-old boxwood from Huashan to carve a picture of the game between the nine elders in Yingzhou, and a hundred gold peaches. There was also a jade carving of Magu from Xinshan to offer her birthday.Needless to say, the cost of Suo'etu was more than ten thousand taels of silver.Gao Shiqi is no longer a poor man, why did he get a bucket of grass to offer?Kangxi ignored everyone's thoughts, looked at the bucket of grass and asked with a smile: "What is this?"

"Wannianqing, my lord!" Gao Shiqi said in a loud voice, "I have no gold, jade, pearls or shells. I offer this emerald grass. I wish the Qing Dynasty thousands of years and thousands of years!"

"Ah, Wannianqing!" Kangxi jumped down from the kang, looked at the bucket with his hands behind his back, and said happily, "Thanks to you, Gao Shiqi, for thinking of it!" Xiong Cilu was so happy that he came over to appreciate it , Tut Tut sighed: "It really looks like a lover! I have to mention a good name-since it is a gift for the heavenly family, why not call it 'Tianguang Wannianqing'?"

Suo'etu felt calm in his heart, he had already convinced Gao Shiqi: such a small gift was so innovative, it overwhelmed everyone.Although he felt a little regretful, he wasn't annoyed—the Pearl didn't win the lottery anyway—after hearing Xiong Cilu give it a name, he also interjected with great interest, "Dongyuan Gong, only the word Tianguang still exists." What a pity! I thought it should be called 'Qian Kun Wannianqing'!"

"That's not the whole story," Mingzhu racked her brains, and smiled with her forehead lying on her face. "Heaven, earth and people call it 'Three Talents'. I think it's better to call it 'Three Talents Wannianqing'."

Kangxi listened to a few courtiers talking about the wind, and wanted to come up with a name. When he was thinking about it, Gao Shiqi laughed and said, "Don't bother everyone. Although the name Zhuo Jing gave it is a bit vulgar, I'd like to see it. It is the best, I respectfully invite the emperor to comment, she said - this is called 'Iron hoop and a bucket of evergreen'!"

"Wonderful!" Xiong Cilu smiled and praised, "It's really a big deal, and it can't be done without a big hand! 'Iron hoops rule Wannianqing'—— um, good!"

Kangxi didn't smile. He picked up the barrel with both hands and sniffed it with his head down. A faint fragrance came to his nostrils. The green leaves were trembling and fresh, as if they were talking to him.After a long time, Kangxi put Wannianqing on the desk, looked left and right in the hall, and saw that there was nothing to give, so he took the paperweight on the table and a plum blossom and pearl jade Ruyi and handed them to Gao Shiqi: "This paperweight rewards you, and Ruyi rewards you." Your 'in-law' --- the Ministry of Internal Affairs has issued a decree that 'a bucket of evergreen' will be paid to the palace every year as an example!" Then he sat back on the kang, and said to several ministers with emotion, "It's nothing more than evergreen, this' The word "one unification" is used perfectly! Qin Shihuang swept the six countries, the cars were on the same track, and the books were in the same text. Only then did the Han Dynasty prosper. The rebellion of the eight kings in the Wei and Jin Dynasties made the world unmanageable, and until the Tang Dynasty was unified, the world was full of vitality. The chaos of the Five Dynasties, the people were displaced again, all industries withered, and the people were miserable... Looking at the annals of history, it is not unified to want the country to be strong and the people rich. Impossible! I was eight years old, Yuji, 15 years old captured Oboi, and 19 years old decided to withdraw from the feudal clan. I took risks and made troubles and tried my best to overcome all opinions. I want to build a great cause of unification! You are all ministers of mine, and you want to be with me in your heart to form the rule of Kangxi like the rule of Zhenguan. The people of the world, and the history of future generations, will never forget you! All ministers, It’s good to do it for yourself!”

Kangxi's face was a little pale, he didn't affect at all, he spoke eloquently and with emotion.Several ministers were still listening in a daze, and now they couldn't help but knelt down together and answered with a pause:

"twitter!"
