There are bursts of birdsong on the seashore, the water splashing gently on the pier, and the big waves under the cliff in the distance hitting the rocks with loud noises, and the rumbling sound is intermittent. Standing on the wooden board, Fan Xian was not confused by His Majesty's hot-blooded words, and said earnestly: "Your Majesty Wan Cheng, you will not be in unexpected places. I will invite Your Majesty to return to Beijing."
"There is an empress dowager in Kyoto, and there are Chen Pingping and two great scholars, who can do anything!" The emperor looked at the sea, waved his hand impatiently, and said, "If you want to seize the world, you must seize that chair. Kill me who is sitting on the chair... if you can't kill me, let them make trouble, the trash rebellion, it won't work in ten years."
Fan Xian was speechless, thinking that His Majesty the Emperor is really a freak, the combination of extremely strong self-confidence and extremely strong suspicion has created this person's character of extreme narcissism... The Emperor wants to play tricks to lure a snake out of his hole, but one day is uncertain He died of narcissism, the problem is that he doesn't want to be buried with him.
"Anzhi, you have to know that it is very difficult to see a person's heart clearly."
The emperor suddenly became emotional. He didn't know whether he was talking about his son or his sister. After this rare expression, his expression was suddenly covered with fatigue, and his brows and eyes were full of wrinkles. Tired.
This exhaustion is not the exhaustion that he deliberately made to show his courtiers on the dragon chair in the court, but the real exhaustion, a kind of boredom that arises from the bottom of his heart.
Fan Xian calmly looked at the face and expression of the emperor Lao Tzu, and countless thoughts passed through his mind. This was the first time he saw such a real and approachable expression on the emperor's face.
However, this kind of true emotional expression is like the clouds above the Danzhou harbor, which only occasionally blooms, covering the dazzling sunlight, and immediately drifting away, transforming into the porcelain blue sky. Moments later, there was no trace of trace on the emperor's face.
All that was left was the self-confidence and perseverance like the sunshine, occasionally revealing his heart, and the man immediately returned to the role of a king.
…
…
Looking at this scene, Fan Xian couldn't help feeling a little emotional, and sighed: "The so-called drawing a man and a tiger is difficult to draw a bone, knowing the face but not the heart, it's all just gentle and responsive on weekdays, who knows if one day he will hold two Straight knives, smashing into each other's chests."
The emperor obviously didn't care who the object of Fan Xian's emotion was, he just reflected on the past surrounded by such emotions. He looked at the sea in a daze, and said quietly: "The world may think that I am a heartless and heartless person, but in fact they are all wrong."
Fan Xian looked at His Majesty quietly, but did not answer.
The emperor said slowly: "I have given them too many chances, I hope they can repent. Even until now, I am still giving them opportunities. If it is not for love, why should I rush so much?"
Fan Xian thought to himself, to seduce and force others to make mistakes, to test each other's heart, carefully observe the suffering of the crown prince and the second prince in the past few years, is the emperor acting like this, is it because of love or sickness
"Just like your mother..." The emperor's eyes narrowed slightly, as if he felt that the sun floating out of the clouds was too dazzling.
Fan Xian's heart tightened slightly, and he listened carefully to every word His Majesty said.
The emperor glanced at him, turned his face away again, and said lightly: "She has made great achievements in the Qing Dynasty, and in me, it is even more... It can be said that her kindness is beyond heaven. The Ye family has thus become a thing of the past, and suffered a tragic death... But I have been hiding it all the time, although I made up for it a little later, but compared to her kindness, I have done very little."
Fan Xian understood what he meant. After the death of his mother, the emperor endured for four years before he wiped out all the princes and nobles in the capital who were involved in this matter, but... a few important people were left unscathed. It's revenge, and this revenge is too incomplete.
The emperor said quietly: "I didn't say it, and neither of them asked. But I know that they are a little unwilling in their hearts, and they all have a heart of resentment towards me..." A trace of self-mockery suddenly appeared on the corner of his lips, "But How can I do this matter? Just keep silent, take the Ye family back into the treasury, and label the Ye family treason, it is ruthless. But if you want to reverse the case for the Ye family, how will the queen mother deal with herself? Or... I have to abolish and kill the queen to be considered truly affectionate and righteous?"
What's amazing is that even when the emperor talked about this verse, his words were still so calm, without a trace of excitement, which made Fan Xian, who was listening, admire him. Of course he knew that the so-called resentful "they" were of course referring to his father Fan Jian and the dean Chen Pingping.
"As an emperor, it is impossible to travel around the world without stumbling..." The emperor said calmly: "If I really did that, I would be a ruthless person, and what would the entire court look like? I think, if she If you are alive, you will definitely agree with my actions."
"She wanted a strong and prosperous Qing country, and I made it happen." A look of determination appeared on the emperor's face, "Looking around Yunei, Qing country is the most powerful country in the world, and the people of Qing country are more prosperous than any other year in history. To live happily, I think this is enough to comfort her."
Fan Xian remained silent. During the years after his rebirth, he often asked himself what kind of country Qing was and what kind of person the emperor was. Although after entering Beijing, he has a deeper understanding of all these things, and finally touched the emperor's self-confidence, narcissism, arrogance, and self-abuse... However, he has to admit one thing, even if the flood last year and the snow disaster this year, the celebration The efficiency of the country's bureaucracy is high, the people are rich, and the politics are clear and clear. Compared with the history books I have read in previous lives, I don't know how many times stronger.
In other words, the Qing Kingdom at this time is undoubtedly governing the world, or even a prosperous age, and the emperor beside him at this time is undoubtedly a wise king, or even a holy king—if the emperor's standard is to let the people eat their stomachs .
"She said that court officials need to be supervised. Well, when I was still the crown prince, I went to admonish my father and set up a Supervisory Council."
"She said that eunuchs are pitiful and hateful, so I strictly abide by the rules since the founding of the country and strictly prohibit eunuchs from intervening in politics. At the same time, I have ordered the Taichang Temple in the inner court to approve the number of eunuchs, so that there are as few abnormal people in the palace as possible."
Fan Xian nodded repeatedly. The number of eunuchs in Qingguo Palace was much smaller than that of Northern Qi. This was undoubtedly a virtuous policy.
"She said that a wise gentleman should be able to listen to her advice. Well, I have granted the power to discuss matters with the imperial censor of the Metropolitan Procuratorate."
The emperor spoke faster and more distracted, but Fan Xian couldn't help biting the tender flesh on his lips, reminding himself not to laugh at the thought of the censors in the court being beaten into pork belly by the imperial staff....
…
…
"She said she wants to reform and eradicate the evils. Well, I will follow her. I will change the yuan, reform the system, and implement a new deal..."
Fan Xian finally couldn't help but smiled wryly.
In the first year of Qingli, the Yuan was changed, and the reform at that time was actually the third New Deal. The Ministry of War was changed into the Ministry of Military Affairs, and then changed into the Privy Council today. Even the six books from ancient times to the present were almost renamed by this majesty.
The achievements of Emperor Qing's life were dazzling, but the three New Deals were absurd things that he could hardly avoid in his life. To this day, people in Kyoto are still at a loss when it comes to these yamen, and whenever they go to a certain place, they often have to report several names.
Such a chaotic new policy, if it wasn't for the powerful deterrent force of the imperial power and the powerful execution of the officials of the Qing Dynasty, the court would have been turned back to its original appearance, leaving only those discordant names... I am afraid that the Qing Dynasty would have been in chaos long ago .
Seeing his expression, the emperor laughed self-deprecatingly: "You don't have to hide it, I know, this is a rare time in my life that I was confused... It's just that your mother was gone at that time, and I only knew a rough idea. Mistakes are inevitable.”
Fan Xian's heart moved slightly, thinking to himself that after his mother's death, the emperor would still follow his word. From this point of view, it must be said that the emperor was still a loving person in this matter.
"Before your mother left, I listened to her a lot, but then I couldn't do anything for her..." The emperor closed his eyes and said quietly: "So after she left, I told you all the things she had mentioned to me back then. Keeping them all in mind, wanting to fulfill them for her can be regarded as... some kind of promise or guilt to her."
Fan Xian sighed, and said, "If mother is still alive, she must be inexplicably grateful to His Majesty."
"No, it's not kindness." The emperor opened his eyes and said calmly: "It's just affection. As for gratitude, that's even more impossible. I just want to do something to sacrifice her spirit in heaven, and I don't want anything else."
The emperor suddenly laughed and said: "She used to talk about the newspaper in a very regretful tone, saying that there was no gossip to read, no lace news to read... So I asked the inner court to make a newspaper and draw some lace on it, Now that I think about it, I'm also really messing around."
Fan Xian was dumbfounded. The inner court newspaper was called the most useless thing in the Qing Dynasty. It was inscribed by Mr. Pan Ling, a great scholar and great calligrapher, and sent to all states and counties. An inner court newspaper sold for a lot of silver.
Back then when he was in Danzhou, he stole the newspaper from the old house to exchange for money, so he was very familiar with this newspaper. The painted lace is very puzzled, and the answer to all this is...
My mother wanted to read gossip newspapers and listen to gossip news back then!
Fan Xian looked at the emperor with a strange expression, and forcibly suppressed the words he was about to blurt out. He originally wanted to remind His Majesty that the so-called lace news did not refer to drawing a few lace on the side of the newspaper.
The emperor didn't notice his expression, and he said more and more happily: "Your mother is most curious about Pingping's story back then, so in the fourth year of Qingli, I took advantage of the old dog to go back to his hometown to visit his relatives, and let the inner court newspaper write happily. Just write it, if your mother can see it, she must be happy too."
Fan Xian laughed out loud. He also remembered this story. In the spring of the fourth year of Qingli, he went from Danzhou to the capital. At that time, the two biggest events in the capital were the exposure of the illegitimate daughter of Prime Minister Lin Ruofu and the marriage with the Fan family. The second is that the editors of the inner court were not afraid of the power of the Overwatch Council, and exposed the youthful story of Chen Pingping, the director of the Overwatch Council, when he was young.
The sun on the beach gradually rose, moving from the front to the back, casting the shadows of the emperor and Fan Xian on the undulating sea surface, and the sea water also came to make fun of it, making the waves calm down a little, gradually reflecting it like calm, reflecting the The blurred shadows of the two became clearer and clearer.
Fan Xian lowered his head with a smile, thinking that His Majesty is still a mortal after all, just as he never forgets Qing Temple, he also never forgets Danzhou, probably in this life, His Majesty will say so many words only on the pier of Danzhou.
And it was this non-monarch-subject conversation that gave Fan Xian a little more affection for the emperor, a deeper understanding, and at the same time more troubles.
He sighed, and turned his eyes to the sea. The troubles in his heart are after all things in the future, and the troubles in front of him are already scary enough.
"What are you worried about?" The emperor asked casually in a relaxed mood.
Fan Xian thought for a while and said, "The admiral of the Jiaozhou navy...is a child of the Qin family."
The emperor was officially on tour, and he didn't know how much ceremonial guards would be required. Even though the Qing emperor was always known for his simplicity, the court also put a lot of effort into defense. On the land, the state army is outside, the forbidden army is inside, plus a group of masters and that old monster, Eunuch Hong, which can be called a steel fortress.
On the waterway, several warships from the Jiaozhou Navy also came to guard against danger from the sea. When Fan Xian said this, he was squinting his eyes slightly at the sea, at the ships sent by the Jiaozhou Navy to escort them.
The emperor's face was calm, he didn't seem to take Fan Xian's reminder to heart, and said, "One day I will seek justice for you for the matter of the valley, but the old general Qin is the rock of the country, don't doubt it. You have transferred Once the black rider comes over, there is no need to worry about the assault within a hundred miles, why worry about being a bereaved dog all day long."
It was only then that Fan Xian realized that His Majesty's other long-useless identity was the leading general. He accepted the order with a smile and said no more. (, If you want to know what happens next, please log in, there are more chapters, support the author, support the original!)
