Qing Dynasty Transmigration: After Lying Flat, Kangxi Heard My Inner Voice

Yinreng has lived for three lifetimes. In this life, he just wants to get along well with his brothers, be a carefree prince, live a life without worries about food and clothing, and explore the be...

Chapter 459: Throwing Papaya

On April 19th, the 51st year of the Kangxi reign, everything was ready and Yinreng officially held his enthronement ceremony.

And stayed in the Palace of Heavenly Purity.

At the same time, the enthronement ceremony of the Guwalgiya clan was also taking place.

The couple walked hand in hand across the red stone walls, came to the foot of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, turned around, and enjoyed the worship of all the people.

Looking at the steps below, where all the subjects knelt down in unison to pay their respects to him, Yinreng suddenly felt a surge of heroic emotion in his chest.

This is his kingdom!

These are his people!

Guwalgiya beside him gently held Yinreng's hand for a moment. Yinreng came to his senses and turned to look at her.

Noticing the dazed look on her face, he couldn't help but chuckle.

He actually didn't think it was real.

But after today, he will be able to show his talents.

This year's reign title is still Kangxi, but next year it will be officially changed to his own reign title.

After discussing with the Ministry of Rites and the Imperial Observatory, Yinreng finally decided to name the reign "Xiang Yi".

"Xiang" means assisting, implying that he obtained the throne with the help of his brothers.

Yinreng was not an ungrateful person. He remembered the contributions of Yinzhi and others, and planned to promote their titles to iron-hat princes.

Besides, none of his brothers are hopeless, so he has to make use of them all.

During the more than half a month after the rebellion, Kangxi was unwilling to hand over the imperial power. He tried several times to pass on the message outside the palace and asked the governors from all over the country to come to Beijing to support the emperor.

However, they were all intercepted by the people left behind by Yinsi.

After the rebellion, Yinsi directly transferred the power of 30,000 troops under the command of the Nine Gates Commander-in-Chief to Yinreng.

Kangxi's personal guards and troops were all expelled from the palace by Yinreng.

The first thing Yinreng did after ascending the throne was to abolish the use of Manchu language in official offices.

Compared with the already very mature Chinese system, Manchu is like a baby still wearing open-crotch pants. Not only does it contain a large number of words with the same pronunciation, it is also quite difficult to write.

He didn't want to cause trouble for himself and make his work more difficult.

However, this immediately hit the nerves of Kangxi and those old-fashioned Manchus.

All the leaders of the Eight Banners of Manchuria disagreed with Yinreng's decree.

In their view, Manchu is the lifeblood of Manchu culture. If Manchu no longer appears in the court, it will soon be forgotten.

They will soon be assimilated into the Han people.

This is something they can't accept no matter what!

These people went straight to the Qianqing Palace and demanded that Yinreng give them an explanation.

Yinreng knew this would happen.

He was not flustered. He asked people to bring a few tables and asked people to write. He picked out some Manchu and Chinese characters with the same pronunciation for these people to identify, and picked out some memorials for some people to translate.

Another group of people translate these translations into the original text.

As a result, after half a day, most people fell into self-doubt.

The Manchu culture they have boasted about for most of their lives is completely powerless in the face of the Han culture that has been passed down for thousands of years.

But even though the facts were already in front of everyone, there were still some people who accused Yinreng of betraying the ancestral etiquette and laws.

Yinreng was so angry that he laughed.

The ancestral rites and laws they were talking about were the "ancestral rites and laws" that defined Manchus as superior to others since Emperor Shunzhi entered the Pass.

But what is the reality?

Before entering the Pass, these people were still hunting all over the mountains and plains, looking for wild fruits to fill their stomachs, and they were on the verge of starvation and freezing all day long. How long have they lived in good times now, and they have forgotten all the shameful past of their ancestors?

When it comes to forgetting one's roots, these people are the real typical examples!

When Yinreng told them about the stories of his ancestors who went out to rob, fish, and look for mountain products, and asked them why they didn't follow suit, everyone fell silent.

Yinreng didn't want to offend these old men, so he added at the end that if they wanted him to withdraw the decree to abolish the use of Manchu language in official offices, the court could hire a group of translators, and the salaries of these translators would be paid from their salaries.

In order to prevent them from thinking that this was a good deal, Yinreng added that every county and district in the Qing Dynasty must hire an interpreter.

As a result, these people's faces became even uglier.

In the end, this group of people came in a rage and left in disappointment.

Looking at the empty room, Yinreng sneered, thinking that these people were just wasting their time.

If they have to do everything by themselves and are kept busy all the time, I wonder if they will have time to come and cause trouble with him!

In addition to this decree, Yinreng also assigned tasks to Yinzhi and others. As the money bag of the Qing Dynasty, one of the tasks assigned to Yinzhen by Yinreng was to establish a bank fully under the court.

And people were asked to develop banknotes that were difficult to counterfeit.

He sent Yinzhi and Yinxiang to the Fujian Navy and Weihaiwei respectively, and asked them to occupy the waters near the Qing Dynasty in the shortest time possible.

It would be best to develop all the nearby small countries into blood bags for the Qing Dynasty.

To supply the Qing Dynasty with food, fruit, timber, minerals and other commodities that the people urgently needed.

The technological products eliminated by the Qing Dynasty still need to be digested by these places.

In addition to being responsible for port customs duties, Yinreng also gave Yinzhen full authority over the caravan in Yin'er's hands, and put him in charge of plundering wealth around the world.

If Yin'er had some principles in doing business, then Yinzhen was almost "robbing" in his business.

In fact, this era emphasized "official career and economy". Official career and economy were put together. It is impossible to say that Yinzhen did not understand it at all.

But most of the time, Yinzhen didn't want to reason with those barbarians, he just wanted to speak with his fists.

Even though he holds the most advanced firearms in the world, it is not Yinzhen's style to still act according to other people's wishes when doing business.

As for Yinsi, Yinreng knew that among this group of brothers, Yinsi's ability was actually the most outstanding.

In his previous life, he threw Yinsi into the port. Besides the fact that he was suitable for cooperating with foreigners, there was another most important reason.

That's to be wary of.

Even though Yinreng lived for three generations and was far superior to his other brothers in every aspect, he was not sure he could completely suppress Yinsi.

It can be seen that Yinsi's methods, strategies and even scheming were outstanding.

The rebellion a few months ago was ostensibly planned by the five princes, but after Yinreng learned the whole process, he discovered that the mastermind was Yin'er, but the person who took the trouble to consider all the details was Yinsi.

It can be said that if Yinsi had not been willing, it is hard to say where he would be now.

Yinsi had already made his attitude clear and pushed him to the throne. If he was still on guard against Yinsi everywhere, he would end up at a disadvantage.

So he put Yinsi directly into the cabinet. Yinsi was the first prince in history to enter the cabinet.

Whenever he was undecided about something, Yinreng would seek his advice.

And there is Yinzhi.

After that day, Yinzhi fell seriously ill.

It can be seen that the excessive emotions on that day did have some impact on his body.
