It's November, and the news of Guangdong has spread all over Yanjing City, but the government and the opposition are very calm, because the emperor is very calm, as in previous years, he stayed in Changchun Garden, and recruited a few adult elder brothers, and took the emperor and grandson to live together, enjoying the joy of family. Among them, the fourth elder brother Yinzhen, who is recognized as having fallen out of favor, and the thirteenth elder brother Yinxiang, who was snubbed very early because of the abolition of the prince, although the eighth elder brother Yinzhen was still imprisoned, the emperor allowed him to pass on letters and items, it is said that Yinzhen presented a hand-copied Diamond Sutra, and the emperor was still smiling when he received it.

There was news from the inner court that the emperor intended to restore the throne of the fourth elder brother, and the sins of the eighth elder brother would be pardoned together, which was not unusual for everyone, after all, the matter of the prince was there before, and they were used to seeing the contention between their father and son.

In the matter of Guangdong, the emperor has a clear attitude and a resolute will, just one word: suppression!

The emperor asked the scholars to agree on a strategy to suppress thieves, it doesn't matter if you smash Guangdong or even the south, it doesn't matter if you tear up the face of the prosperous world, in the emperor's opinion, the poisonous sores of Guangdong Li Shi have been ripe through, and all the poison is outside the body, just cut it with a knife.

"Jumping thief, why is he the enemy!? Dare to be the king in half a province, for thousands of years, there has been no example of success in this generation! You followed the righteousness of the past to suppress the thief, listed the candidates for the commander, agreed on the allocation of troops and horses, and marched in three ways to attack the thief when he was arrogant! ”

Kangxi's fluttering tone when he said this kept echoing in the ears of the scholars, making them also sigh. Before, the emperor was cautious in every way, and even wiped the face of the court and took the initiative to show favor to Li Shi. Now it seems that the stomach is happy, and no matter how difficult it is, this change is too natural.

But then they found out the clue, this change is not natural at all, Kangxi didn't even read Li Xianguang's text, and he didn't want to negotiate the details with the scholars, and completely only regarded the affairs of a province in Guangdong as a county affairs as indifferent, putting aside the emperor's wise and martial aura, the scholars saw an ostrich with its head stuck in the sand.

This slap was too loud, and the scholars understood that the emperor was now full of Venus, and he was dizzy, and he wanted to slow down first. Not to mention the emperor, even they felt a hot pain on their faces. This Li Shi is really not human! If you want to follow you, why do you talk about temperature and illness in the emperor, and when the overall situation comes first? But when the imperial court deigned to surrender and was awarded the title of official and knighted? The emperor's strategy failed completely before, and it seemed that it also fueled the arrogance of the Li thief, and the emperor could still talk about the Li thief to their courtiers, I don't know how much effort it took to strengthen his face.

Sage Yun, the lord humiliated the ministers to death, and the scholars trembled and began to discuss countermeasures, but the Hanlin people in the south study had a more complicated mentality.

"I heard that there is a country called 'Yinggali' in the outer sea, with ships and guns and very strong national strength. This Li Shi named the country as British, and his intentions were clearly revealed, and he only dared to be rebellious by relying on the sharpness of his guns. This person must be relying on Yangyi as his parents, and he is bad for my Chinese legal system. Following this reasoning, he has the face of having no king and no father, and everyone in the world knows it. At that time, not only did no one respond to him, but his henchmen should also be ashamed to face their ancestors, and they dispersed one after another, and my court could destroy this thief without spending swords and guns! ”

Wang Jingming, the editor of the Hanlin Academy in the south study, said confidently, and many people nodded and said yes, this is the ultimate policy.

Their next task was to refute Li Shi's "Yinghua Confession" and to conquer and suppress Li Thief, so that they naturally had to explain the righteousness of the imperial court and let the world know the ugly face of Li Thief. The important surnames of the battlefield of public opinion are no less than the battlefield of flesh and blood, and these Hanlin are all full of blood, full of rhetoric, and want to pile up a gorgeous, graceful, righteous and awe-inspiring article.

Hearing this, Han Lin, who had been in contact with Li Shi's matter, was cold-eyed, looking at Wang Jingming's eyes like a fool.

"Brother Dansi, you have just entered the South Study, Li Shi, you still don't know the roots. He is a native of Shaozhou Yingde, Yingde was called Yingzhou in ancient times, he took this as the name of the country, is to boast of Huaxia Zhengshuo, if the topic is here, I am afraid that the hearts of the world's scholars are biased, to think about the origin of the name of the country of my Qing Dynasty......"

Hui Shiqi, the editor of the Hanlin Academy, shook his head, he saw some clues.

"What is bias? I opened the new world of the universe in the Qing Dynasty, the new foundation of China, and the country name can no longer follow the old ways, such a reason, reasonable people should figure it out! ”

Zhang Tingyu, a bachelor, hurriedly interjected, this direction is a big rebellion, and if you talk about it deeply, I don't know if you can disperse the hearts of Li Xian's henchmen, and the hearts of the people in the south study are afraid that they will disperse first.

"But there are tens of millions of scholars all over the world, and it is difficult to keep the stupid and corrupt people, if you talk about this matter deeply, it is difficult to ensure that it will not confuse their minds, so there is no need to talk about this country name in detail."

Zhang Tingyu read the old sage book, so he naturally knew that this matter could not be broken in detail, and after reprimanding Hui Shiqi, he also denied Wang Jingming's proposal.

"Li Thief's article only mentions in general terms that my Qing Dynasty entered the country as a foreigner, and it is not right to win the country, and there is no even rhetoric, which is not worth refuting. And more is talking about the way of heaven, what allows people to benefit themselves, what makes the country and benefits the people, the world, he established the country to protect the way of heaven, he is the king is to receive the mandate of heaven, to protect the people, this is the saying of Yang Zhu and Lao Zhuang. As far as my generation of scholars is concerned, it is a fallacy, and it is foolish to think that it is good to follow the Three Principles and Five Constants, denounce them for destroying our Chinese legal system, and show me the position of the Great Qing Dynasty. ”

Xu Taozhang spoke, he is this year's new champion, and Wang Jingming is the champion of Enke in Kangxi's fifty-second year, and entered the palace early, won the emperor's heart, and the champion was Wang Jingming, who was personally ordered by the emperor, his foundation is more solid, and he is more sensitive to things that touch the legal system.

Zhang Tingyu was the presiding officer of the meeting, and felt that this position was upright, and was about to nod his head, when Hui Shiqi spoke again.

"I'm afraid that this theory will lead to a dispute over what is right, and my Chinese legal system is based on the three outlines and five constants, and it will also touch the theory of the mandate of heaven. Li Thief's text, even if it is pseudo-rebellious, but it is also answering this question, if the court avoids the truth and is false, only mentioning the source of Zhengshuo, not mentioning the source of Zhengshuo, the root of Zhengshuo, I am afraid that it will fall into the inferior. ”

These words made Zhu Hanlin look at each other, Zhang Tingyu looked at him lightly, but the pupils of his eyes were tumbling with a light of hatred, this Hui Shiqi is really a pot that can't be opened! The emperor has been benevolent for decades, isn't he building this Zhengshuo? But the terrible thing is that seeing the prosperity coming, the name of Zhengshuo is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, but Li Shi reversed, and dragged the industrial and commercial grass people of a province to reverse it, and slapped the Zhengshuo that was won by benevolence to the fan, and then mentioned this, I am afraid that I will continue to slap myself.

Then this Zhengshuo will be traced back to my Qing Dynasty's destruction of Li Chuang, revenge for Li Chuang's destruction of the former Ming Dynasty, and thus inherit the foundation of the former Ming Dynasty, which is the bottom tone of the Shunzhi Dynasty, and it can be regarded as a correct reason.

But the question is, in the past few decades, I have felt that there is no need to mention the righteousness of the Qing Dynasty, but the foundation of winning the hearts of the people all over the world.

Therefore, Zhang Tingyu was very angry, if they couldn't come up with an essay to beg the thief and overwhelm Li Shi's essay morally, they, the scholars, would probably have to live up to the deep imperial grace they had received.

By the way, King Chuang...... Zhang Tingyu's mind suddenly cleared up, and the news that came back from the bottom said that the people of Guangdong, and some people also rumored that Li Xian was Li Chuang, whether it was true or not, this layer of skin was covered on Li Shi's body, and he couldn't take it off, hehe...... Look at the people of the world, who dares to deal with you Li Shi.

"After breaking into the king, we will rejuvenate the people and not pay for food, seize the property of the gentry, and destroy the foundation of China, well, well, good, good!"

Changchun Garden, Kangxi looked at the manuscript of the thief submitted by Zhang Tingyu, and the face that had been tense finally relaxed, this basin of dirty water was splashed well!

pointed out a few undesirable points, Zhang Tingyu retreated with dignity, and then Kang Ci passed another person to see him.

"Yinzhen, look...... In the matter of Guangdong, is it better to send a commander, take charge of the general's seal, and suppress the Li thief? ”

Kangxi asked Yinzhen pleasantly, which suddenly made the corners of Yinzhen's eyes hot.

It's not easy, although Huang Ama did not apologize directly, but this question is already a statement of regret.

"Erchen thought that the Li thief in Guangdong was surrounded on three sides, and one person was in the middle, and some took care of one and lost the other. It is better to plan in three ways, so that it can not only show that our imperial court does not take the Guangdong incident as a rebellion that shakes the foundation, but also exempts the northwest from the heart of taking the opportunity to make trouble. ”

The strategy of conquering and suppressing Li Shi, Yin Zhen has already discussed it in detail with his subordinates, and if he is set up as a general and coordinates the overall situation, there are several disadvantages. The first is naturally that it is difficult to dispatch, but this is only a detail, and the bigger disadvantage is that this makes Arabutan see the situation of the imperial court and take the opportunity to send troops.

These two are public, and from a private point of view, although his impression of Yinzhen in Kangxi's eyes has improved, and there are even rumors that he may be restored to the throne, he will definitely not be able to get the position of general. If other princes and important ministers get the position of great general, it will not be good for his future, after all, he has a bad reputation in the court and clan. It is too difficult to directly envelop this general.

That's right, now Yinzhen has changed his mind, and this ups and downs made him see Huang Ama's weakness, and Huang Ama is no longer the wise and martial saint. He often thinks that if he is the emperor, then Li Xi is afraid that when he is still Li Beijiang, he has already been solved by him, how can he raise tigers to cause trouble until now?

Therefore, he wants to be an emperor, and he also feels that he can do better...... If you can't do it, then you can entrap the future ministers. If there is no commander-in-chief, the courtiers who divide the road will be easy to encompass, especially Nian Qianyao in Hunan, who has the hope of being alone and setting up a commander who oversees the whole army, and the credit will not reach Nian Qianyao, and there will be no way for him to be closely attached to Nian Qianyao.

"Huh? I really didn't expect that you will also start to be able to take care of the overall situation and have a serious heart. ”

Kangxi was a little surprised, but also a little relieved.

"What about Xiao Hongli? Bring him to meet, our father, son, grandfather and grandson, let's get together today, and don't talk about state affairs again. ”

Kangxi no longer mentions the matter of Guangdong, he wants to meet his grandson, the five-year-old Xiao Hongli is very well-behaved, and the family can visit the garden, and he can also comfort his broken heart, and no longer think about the damn Li Xian! When he first received the news of Li Shi's rebellion, he felt a chill all over his body, and it has not disappeared until now.

If you go outside, you must first settle inside, the court and the civil and military are united, and the family gets along happily, Kangxi felt that he had eased up and had the confidence to face Li Xian's thief.

"Your Majesty, the south wind is very tight, so you have to wear thicker clothes in the garden."

Just as he was about to leave, the little eunuch said a word flatteringly.

"Drag it out! Rod! ”

The suppressed cold poured into his heart, Kangxi's forehead jumped violently, and he gritted his teeth and shouted.
