Because there are only two big men, Gao Xianda and Wang Yu, and their martial arts are very high. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info Xiaoxing overnight, coupled with the acceleration effect of Gao Xianda's group riding, the speed of the road is also very fast.

The Burning Cloud from Coxenda is a top-of-the-line walking horse that is best suited for this kind of long, medium-speed travel.

Wang Yu, on the other hand, does not have an exclusive mount, so he can only take three horses at the same time and ride them alternately. He doesn't have to spare horsepower, if a horse is tired, just change it. When you get to the post station or the big city, you can change three horses, so you can keep up along the way.

It didn't take long for Gao Xianda to arrive in the capital.

After tidying up his clothes, Gao Xianda went to the Forbidden City to report and asked to see the emperor.

As soon as Kangxi heard that Gao Xianda was coming, he was naturally very happy, and hurriedly summoned him to meet him.

I haven't seen him for a year, Kangxi has grown a lot taller, and his face has matured a lot. It seems that there is no shortage of worries about various things throughout the year.

Gao Xianda and Kangxi reminisced about the old days, and tested his martial arts.

Kangxi's martial arts have made great progress, and he has not given up cultivation by relying only on himself during this year. It is enough to see that Kangxi is a genius boy.

After the old relationship was finished, Gao Xianda began to report on the matter.

First of all, of course, I first talked about my business situation in Guangdong.

Of course, he would not say that he is now covering the sky in Guangdong, saving Kangxi from thinking that the problem of King Pingnan has just been solved, and Gao Xianda has become a feudal town again.

Gao Xianda only said that the current King of Pingnan is a kind-hearted person and is very loyal to the emperor. Then he said that the current governor and governor often cause trouble for themselves, and they are not convenient in military, political, and financial matters. As a result, he now does not have the financial resources to build a formed navy as soon as possible, and the effect of suppressing bandits is not significant.

It's a pity that for the time being, we haven't found any evidence of their corruption and bending the law, so I can't kill them. I hope the emperor can remove them.

Of course, he is a clear and deprecating compliment, if the governor and the governor become subordinate to the admiral, then there is no value in existence. Now that they can form a counterbalance with Gao Xianda in all directions, it shows that they are at least loyal to their duties.

Moreover, Gao Xianda also said that he did not find evidence of their corruption and perversion of the law, which shows that they are good officials.

So although Kangxi had a serious expression, he was still very happy in his heart. He said: "Although Jin Guangzu and the two of them are embarrassed by you, they are not too bad. They cannot be removed for the time being. In this way, I will send a royal historian over and beat them twice, and they will be obedient. ”

Of course, Coheser didn't really want to remove them. Now that Kangxi has spoken, of course Gao Xianda will not entangle with him on this issue.

Subsequently, Gao Xianda reiterated the problem of insufficient funds.

Kangxi's reply is the same as in the last letter, and the emperor's family has no surplus food.

Kangxi's perspective expands to the whole country, and it cannot be limited to Guangdong. This year's drought has caused disasters in the Yellow River region. Shaanxi and Henan now have a large number of hungry people who need to go to disaster relief.

Naturally, the treasury is not well funded, and there is no way to help Cossenda.

This point was also expected by Gao Xianda.

But he was foreshadowing the last thing.

Gao Xianda even mentioned two things, but Kangxi didn't agree. At this time, Gao Xianda proposed to purchase cannons from the foundry bureau of the imperial court.

Because of the success of building cannons, Nan Huairen and others have now set up a public foundry bureau to specialize in casting cannons. It's just a royal special, and if you want to buy cannons here, you have to get the emperor's permission.

Coxianda Shipbuilding is also for the purpose of suppressing bandits, which is the right thing. So it is understandable that he bought cannons.

Kangxi weighed the pros and cons and said, "This is a business matter, and it is also a good thing." If you have a heart, how can I refute it. ”

So he ordered someone to draw up a holy decree, which was considered a license for Gao Xianda to buy cannons.

Kangxi said to Gao Xianda again: "Aiqing, since you are building a ship, you need a large number of cannons, I am afraid that it will be slowly cast from Beijing and then transported over, which is quite slow." If you have an idea, you can transfer Nan Huairen to your Guangdong to build another foundry bureau. It's a pity that my treasury is empty now, and the cost of buying cannons is only available from your place. As for the matter of your establishment of the foundry, it depends on whether you need it or not. ”

Gao Xianda hurriedly kowtowed and thanked him.

Whether he needs it or not, first trick the old man into Guangdong. He also has a large number of goodies in his hand, which can be redeemed.

Finally, Gao Xianda talked to Kangxi about the two sons in Beijing.

Wu Yingxiong is now very obedient, and in order to win the heart of King Pingxi, Kangxi also married his sister Princess Jianning to Wu Yingxiong.

Gao Xianda didn't have a good impression of Princess Jianning, that was Wei Xiaobao's daughter-in-law, and Gao Xianda didn't mean to be jealous.

It's just that I don't know if this time after Wu Yingxiong took Princess Jianning, will this crazy woman cut off the little brother again.

However, according to Gao Xianda's speculation, Wu Yingxiong was inevitably abused at home. After all, this is Jingshi, not Yunnan. Although Wu Yingxiong is a colt, he has no power. If he dares to play a drunken game of beating the golden branch, I'm afraid he won't be able to eat and walk around.

However, since Wu Yingxiong is a good hostage here in Kangxi, then King Pingxi's side will inevitably have to be honest for a few days.

And Shang Kexi, the father and son of Shang Zhixin, are a little different.

Shang Kexi had already said that he wanted to return to his hometown, but Shang Zhixin was forced.

Since the two of them have arrived in Beijing, and there are no soldiers and horses to follow, they naturally have no ability to resist Kangxi.

So Kangxi played a trick with them.

Kangxi granted Shang Kexi's permission to enter the customs for retirement, opened up a piece of land for him at the location of Ningguta outside the pass, and named him the general of Ningguta.

Anyway, the Ningguta side is vast and sparsely populated, and to the north is the old Maozi of the Rakshasa country. It's his business how he wants to toss. With his age, he didn't dare to inquire about the Manchu Dragon Vein.

As for Shang Zhixin, Kangxi did not allow him to leave with him, but left him in the Jingshi.

also gave him a false title, and then also found a Gege to marry him. Anyway, Shunzhi has a lot of wives, and Kangxi has a lot of half-sisters and sisters.

Therefore, Shang Zhixin and Wu Yingxiong's treatment is similar, and they are both equivalent to being placed under house arrest.

It's just that there are still some differences, Wu Yingxiong is still the son of King Pingxi, while Shang Zhixin has changed from the son of King Pingnan to the eldest brother of King Pingnan......

Wu Yingxiong is the heir, while Shang Zhixin is not, so there are still many differences in status and treatment.

Another point is that Shang Zhixin is still addicted to alcohol and likes to use wine to drown his sorrows. He had repeatedly invited Wu Yingxiong to his house for a drink.

But it's a pity that as soon as Wu Yingxiong saw the big bowl that Shang Zhixin used to drink, he felt a convulsion in his stomach and even fainted. So much so that until now, the two of them have not really drunk once.

Naturally, there is no chance of alliance and rebellion...... (To be continued.) )
