Chapter 74: The 74th Day of Wanting to Die
[What are you investigating? This must have been done by the Bai Lian Cult! ]
Kangxi was stunned. He knew about the White Lotus Sect, but he didn't expect that the White Lotus Sect was so bold as to come directly to his door and curse him.
This is a life-threatening situation.
And the one who moved was his favorite Xiaoliu.
Just like Xiaoliu said, he has a short life, so it is normal for him to care about such things.
Kangxi understood very well.
So, those people have to pay the price.
Moreover, the White Lotus Sect has even expanded to the capital. It turns out that he is too kind and benevolent, and has left too many good impressions on people.
To the point that people forget his brutal side.
Kangxi closed his eyes, hugged the bewildered Xiaoliu, and said soothingly, "Don't be afraid."
Yin Zhuo was not afraid, but he remembered something.
[Is the White Lotus Sect about to revolt? It is now the 34th year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi. According to the time calculation, they should revolt in Shaanxi around the 43rd year of the reign of Emperor Kangxi, inciting the lower-class peasants to begin to resist the economic and political policies of the Qing Dynasty.]
Kangxi was stunned. The White Lotus Sect actually had the courage to revolt?
Does it have that much power?
In fact, Kangxi never took the White Lotus Sect seriously, and he still doesn't take it seriously now, but since Xiaoliu said so, he had to do something.
Kangxi issued a very strict policy to crack down on the White Lotus Sect. Now that the court is stable and the world is at peace, there has been no news about the White Lotus Sect for a long time.
Kangxi did not expect that they had not yet perished, but were still alive.
Kangxi asked people to call Yinzhen, Yinreng, Yinzhi and Yinqi over. Except for the fourth son who was on a business trip, all the capable sons arrived.
Everyone was a little confused.
Yinreng asked, "Why did your Majesty summon me here?"
He was planning to go to the yamen.
He felt that Xiaoliu was right. As the Crown Prince, he needed to accumulate more practical experience. Therefore, his plan was to move down to the grassroots level.
He had just changed his clothes when he was called over by the Emperor.
Yinzhen was also curious, but he also got some news: "Your Majesty, I heard that the common people are very grateful to Xiaoliu, and they spontaneously sent eggs, vegetables and other things at the palace gate. Xiaoliu is really promising."
Yinzhen was still a little proud.
Yinzhi and Yinqi's sources of information were relatively narrow. They didn't see it when they attended court, so they didn't know about it at all.
It seems that the imperial guards have already taken the things away in advance.
They all looked at the Emperor curiously, but he didn't say anything. So, he didn't come here to let them hear how the common people praised Xiaoliu, did he?
It can’t be that outrageous, right?
And the emperor's expression is very solemn.
Kangxi's face turned cold, he stared at a few people, and said: "The White Lotus Sect has appeared."
Yinreng and Yinzhi were both shocked. How could the White Lotus Sect be so rampant and actually appear in front of the Emperor?
Do they still think that the current crackdown on cults is too weak?
Isn't this just asking for death?
The White Lotus Sect is a remnant from the Ming Dynasty. Their religious beliefs are mainly Buddhism, but also mixed with Taoism. Because the god they worship is sitting on a lotus altar, one called the Mother of No Birth, so they are called the White Lotus Sect.
But Yinreng had only learned about the White Lotus Sect from other people since he was a child, and had never seen their lair.
And they are very honest.
After all, the Qing Dynasty was not like the Ming Dynasty. The Qing Dynasty was Manchu, and although they had been trying hard to accept Han culture, religious beliefs had little impact on them.
The White Lotus Sect is even more of a heresy. The Emperor did not dare to touch Taoist temples and monasteries, but he always tried to eradicate such heresy.
Yinreng was also influenced by his father, and he didn't believe in anything. He was an atheist. If one had to say one thing, it would be that he believed in himself.
He thinks all those gods and Buddhas are empty.
But he does not exclude people who believe in Buddhism and Taoism. After all, it is their own choice and it is also part of the traditional culture of the Han people.
Yinzhen immediately said, "Father, what happened? Please tell me, I am willing to investigate this matter."
Kangxi raised his hand to stop him.
Yin Zhuo was a little surprised.
[I never thought that the Emperor would investigate so quickly and immediately think of the White Lotus Sect. This is exactly what I thought. The White Lotus Sect is not a good one. It has been lingering for more than a thousand years and has had many uprisings, but none of them succeeded. Not only did it cause unrest, but it also brainwashed others.]
It’s not that Yin Zhuo looks down on him, it’s just that he is too annoying. If you were so powerful, you could overthrow the Qing Dynasty.
The result has always been minor.
They did instigate the war, but in the end it was the ordinary people who suffered. After all, no one wants war to happen, not to mention that the main force of this religious uprising was those innocent people.
Kangxi was shocked by Xiaoliu's idea. What was Xiaoliu talking about? How could he possibly overthrow the Qing Dynasty?
The White Lotus Sect simply does not have this strength.
And he would not allow this to happen.
【But this is also the emperor's fault. If the people were living a happy life, would so many people be incited to revolt? Isn't their wish to have enough food and good clothes? But now the Qing Dynasty's tax policy is not friendly at all. The emperor is too harsh and suppresses the Han people too much. Although I understand him, if he continues to suppress them, it will eventually rebound on himself and lose more people's support. 】
【In the 43rd year of Emperor Kangxi’s reign, the White Lotus Rebellion had a large scope. There were rebel armies in Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Henan. They wanted to fight for their own interests because they could no longer survive under oppression. So they stood up under the instigation of the White Lotus Religion and wanted to resist the Qing Dynasty. But did those people in the White Lotus Religion understand military affairs? Did they understand politics? They were just pursuing their own desires. Emperor Kangxi sent people to suppress them at that time, and finally relaxed some policies, but it should have been so long ago.】
Kangxi did not expect that the scale of the White Lotus Religion uprising was quite large and it even affected Shanxi, Shaanxi and Henan.
Yinreng also felt troubled. He had not expected that the White Lotus Sect, which they had never taken seriously, had secretly grown to such a large scale. It was not easy to launch an uprising in these three places.
Yinzhen also took a breath.
Yinzhi and Yinqi both pricked up their ears, wanting to hear more.
Yin Zhuo is still going on.
[The predecessor of the White Lotus Sect, the Red Turban Army, also revolted in the Ming Dynasty. It should have been the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, but the revolt also failed. The White Lotus Sect was really ruthless. Because the Qing Dynasty was the time when the Manchus entered the country, in order to rule this land, the means were very strict, so the White Lotus Sect had to go underground. By the time of Emperor Qianlong, it had become a thorn in Qianlong's side, because the White Lotus Sect had been active for so long at that time, and its strength had greatly increased. It became even more rampant during the Jiaqing years. Jiaqing was also pitiful, and all kinds of bad things happened to him. ]
Kangxi did not expect that his momentary relaxation would bring such a huge hidden danger to future generations.
This White Lotus Sect is really like a weed. No matter how hard we try, we can't get rid of it completely.
The vitality is really strong.
The Mother of No Birth is an evil being.
Kangxi had seen the symbol of the White Lotus Sect, and it was not holy at all.
He even imitated the Bodhisattva and sat on the lotus altar.
Kangxi listened to Xiaoliu's thoughts and kept thinking. He said to Yinzhen: "Don't make trouble first. I want to wipe out their lair."
The corners of Yin Zhuo's mouth twitched.
[You think it's easy. When the cult gets crazy, they want to use their bodies as bait to blow others up. Don't try to understand why they do that, because they have been brainwashed and confused. In modern times, there are many people who bring explosives into the crowd and press the switch directly, and then blow up a lot of people. The more people there are, the more excited they are. So although Kangxi's method appeased the White Lotus Sect, if they are pushed too hard, they might really do something desperate. They also have guns and firearms. ]
Kangxi had to say that Xiaoliu was right.
The enemies they face are not normal people, but those who have been contaminated by cults.
Yinzhen also felt a sinking feeling in his heart, this was not an easy matter to handle.
But he would do it anyway.
"Your Majesty, please leave this matter to me."
Yinzhen took the initiative to ask for re-entry.
Kangxi shook his head: "Don't worry, let me think about it."
The most reliable method is to infiltrate their group without alarming them, and then coordinate with them from the inside and outside.
Capture their backbone.
Yin Zhuo felt that this matter was both easy and difficult to handle.
[Isn't the White Lotus Religion powerful? Then why not have another more powerful religion that just gives out eggs? If you join the religion, you get free eggs. If you don't join, you get food. I don't believe that the White Lotus Religion is not in a hurry.]
Kangxi and several other people's eyes lit up. When it comes to brains, Xiaoliu is the one to look at.
I can even think of making eggs.
Kangxi thought it was wonderful. According to what happened last night, he thought the White Lotus Sect's lair was not far from the capital, either in Henan, Shanxi or Shaanxi.
After all, Xiaoliu said that the uprising started there.
So, what is the name of their religion?
I don’t know what good thing Yin Zhuo thought of, he just laughed out loud.
Then Kangxi heard him confess: "Father, how about this? Let's also establish a religion, under the name of praying for the sons and ministers, to establish an egg... um, the Great Puritan Sect, and then use some material means to attract believers, and then attract all the believers of the White Lotus Sect who have developed offline, and then send people to find their lair and directly eradicate them."
Yin Zhuo felt that he really lived up to his name as a bald man, how could he be so smart.
[The name of this religion is the Great Puritanism, but I still think the Egg Religion sounds better.]
Kangxi's mouth twitched. What kind of crappy names are these?
Kangxi nodded and said, "Okay, in that case, how can we attract believers? I think it's better to give out eggs. Xiaoliu just mentioned eggs, and I think that's a good idea."
尹灼一口氣上不來差點被噎死，他這是不是又被搶話了。
皇阿瑪可真是的。
“對，給他們發雞蛋，只要他們每天吃雞蛋的時候想着我就行，算了，別想我了，想皇阿瑪吧，皇阿瑪這雞蛋教就打着為您祈福的名義好了。”
【想着我吃雞蛋還怪奇怪的，這福氣還是讓皇阿瑪去享吧，肯定會有很多人的，畢竟我也是接受過現代的營銷轟炸的，最誇張的就是雙十一的時候，無論用手機打開哪個軟件都給我跳到某寶，只要不買就是省錢，別想打着省錢送錢的名號騙我一分錢出去。】
又來了又來了，小六又開始說一些奇奇怪怪的話了。
雙十一是什麽，營銷轟炸勉強能理解，但手機某寶這完全理解不了一點。
怎麽還要花錢呢。
一群人都聽迷糊了，完全搞不清楚狀況，不是在說白蓮教嗎？
小六又說什麽奇奇怪怪的東西。
但衆人都被小六說的那個未來勾的心癢癢，那個世界太美好了。
美好的他們無法想象。
怪也只怪他們生的時代太早了，但每一個時代的人都有每一個時代的使命。
他們現在這個時代的使命就是要讓大清變得更美好，讓後世的人免受點苦難。
據康熙估摸，大清應該在乾隆後期就走下坡路了。
但現在也想不了那麽多，先把眼前的事給解決了再說。
“小六說的不錯，就按照小六說的辦，銀子從國庫裏出。”
康熙說完，尹灼又叮囑胤褆：“大哥，你到時候就找人喬裝打扮一下，就哪裏有白蓮教的身影，你們就去哪裏發雞蛋，争取每個雞蛋都有自己的價值。”
【雞蛋的命也是命！要是白蓮教鏟除了我多少得給它們立個碑，它們不是普通的雞蛋，他們已經完成了自己蛋生，eggy~】
康熙：……
胤礽和胤褆胤祉胤祺：……
不是，小六最後一個eggy是什麽意思？
【可惡啊，為什麽沒有手機，為什麽沒有電腦，我想玩游戲了！】
康熙都快好奇死了，電腦又是什麽？
他都冒冷汗了，腦子前面加了一個電字？
他知道雷公電母，但電腦這多少有點恐怖了。
康熙一時間腦袋有些發涼。
其他人也都是後怕的咽了咽口水，手和機又是怎麽聯系起來的，游戲怎麽在這兩個裏面玩啊？
可惡，他們真是好奇死了。
不能再跟小六呆在一起了。
一直在勾引他們，但他們又沒有見過那些東西。
但他們都不由自主的開始幻想，要是大清按照小六的路線走，那會不會跟後世一模一樣。
當然，這也只是他們的奢望，畢竟他們現在能力有限。
連那什麽工業革命的邊角料都沒摸到呢。
衆人又完善了一下。
尹灼見他們認真，聽的頭大。
【唉，鏟除個白蓮教不會要花費個幾年時間吧？一個個還這麽較真，等到白蓮教沒了，編出來的這個教自然也消失了，國庫裏現在有銀子也不能這麽耗費啊，而且這是重點嗎？重點不應該是皇阿瑪把相關的經濟政策和稅收政策放寬一點嗎？人雖然是白蓮教煽動的，但隐患還是在朝廷本身啊，真笨啊！】
尹灼見他們半天說不到重點上，忍不住在心裏罵了起來。
康熙瞬間被小六給罵清醒了。
小六說的對啊，他們本末倒置了。
白蓮教是要鏟除的，但根還是在朝廷這裏。
康熙嚴肅的道：“這事朕會同大臣們商讨一下。”
胤褆和胤礽兩個人作為年齡大的哥哥，也有點臉紅，他們剛剛都說了什麽屁話，一句都沒在重點上。
也不怪小六生氣。
小六罵的好。
尹灼見他們終于安分下來了，自己也老實了，然後就盯着茶杯開始發呆。
【都說白蓮教的起義為清朝末期的一系列變法打定了基礎，但要是我從現在就開始動搖他們的根基呢？】
尹灼心中有一個瘋狂的想法。
康熙現在一點都不排斥小六的提議，畢竟已經沒有更壞的結果了。
他們大清再傳個幾代也沒了，還不如按照小六說的做，最後留下一個好名聲呢。
唉，不知道最後是誰接了清朝的正統。
【當時清朝末期，鬧得最厲害的起義軍應該是太平天國了，它描述了一個人人平等的時代，還出了一個女狀元，那是從古至今唯一一個女狀元，歷史的長河裏有女皇帝，但女狀元卻只有那一個，但太平天國也不過是打着解放思想的封建王朝罷了。】
尹灼想想就有點心酸。
【女狀元啊，但下場也很慘了，她作為一個女子站到了那一個高位，就會引得男人的嫉妒和不服，最後她還是沒有抗争過命運，成了那人後宮的一員，而之後她的遭遇比其他女子更可怕更慘烈，因為她是女狀元，她的存在就是那些人心中的眼中釘肉中刺。】
尹灼覺得心酸不已，這就是女子在封建王朝的現狀。
她很勇敢，她也很有才華，但沒有生在一個好的時代。
像是感受到了小六心中的悲傷，其他人都沒有說話。
所以太平天國是推翻了清朝是嗎？
畢竟在大清可沒有女子考狀元的事，或者說從古至今科舉就不能與女子有關聯。
因為科舉要驗身，這一關直接對女子關掉了科舉的大門。
朝堂之上更是沒有女官。
女子從古至今就仿佛是一個附庸品。
這也是封建王朝的悲哀。
【皇阿瑪也是這樣啊，姐姐妹妹們也不是被他拿去當做政治聯姻的工具。】
想到塔娜和烏日娜，尹灼心裏也很不好受。
但與那些普通女子相比，烏日娜和塔娜又是幸運百倍的。
【塔娜那麽聰明要是參加科舉肯定會中進士的。畢竟歷史上衆人她的才華評價可不低。】
康熙眉頭緊皺，完全是擰着眉聽完這段話的。
小六這絕對是在胡鬧，別說他同不同意，就是他同意，那些酸儒也能指着他的腦門噴。
這也不是他能決定的。
但和親這件事是從古延續下來的，而他們需要與草原保持聯系，畢竟他能坐穩這帝位就少不了來自草原的支持。
康熙明白小六很難受，他身為帝王就自由了嗎？
還不是被條條框框束縛住了。
康熙接受小六的意見和批評，但能做到什麽程度他就不知道了。
他承受的住，但別人可不一定，塔娜是很優秀。
但他要是敢說讓塔娜去跟那些書生一起科舉，整個朝堂絕對會亂了套，別說大臣們了，就那些書生也不願意跟塔娜一個考場。
他是不會讓塔娜受這些委屈的，所以這事他就當做沒聽到。
胤礽都麻了，白蓮教的事剛出來，又冒出來一個太平天國。
而且竟然還出了一個女狀元。
胤礽閉眼都能知道那個女狀元是什麽下場，不要小看男人的嫉妒心和罪惡的心理。
可惜了。
胤礽見皇阿瑪被說的面色凝重，輕聲嘆了一口氣，他理解皇阿瑪。
他作為一個太子已經夠難的了，更別說當皇上了。
胤礽苦笑了一下，要處理這麽多麻煩事，要是皇阿瑪不在，全權交給他的話，他可能都亂套了。
胤褆則想到了自家閨女，他家那幾個小格格也很厲害。
小不點的時候就嚷嚷着要騎馬射箭。
但胤褆一直很忙，沒有教她們，不知道現在的學習進度如何了，希望她們都能像五妹妹塔娜那樣。
塔娜深受皇瑪嬷喜愛那都是有原因的。
但胤褆心中有股不好的預感，他閨女可別去學什麽繡花之類的，他真的會頭大。
胤褆現在就是後悔，很後悔。
之前為什麽不多關心關心孩子啊。
現在這心不上不下的，很是擔憂啊。
胤祉和胤祺也倒吸了一口涼氣，起義就算了，竟然還成功了，而且這歷史上第一個女狀元……
真慘啊。
但不是說人人平等嗎？
怎麽還把人給收到後宮去了？
不應該授予官職嗎？
難不成只是利用女狀元的名號來宣傳人人平等的思想？
這樣更惡心，給了人希望又毀滅掉了它。
【唉，現代高考的時候女狀元也不少啊，文理科都有，大家站在同一起跑線上的話，女生的學習能力還更強呢，女生也能坐着航天器飛上天空，也能當兵立功。】
康熙這個時候眉頭都能夾死蚊子了。
未來怎麽那麽混亂啊，科舉呢？怎麽變成高考了？
那科舉可是延續了千年的，說廢就廢了？
還有什麽文理科狀元？
女生當狀元是一件很普通的事嗎？
胤褆更是驚訝，不是，你們未來真會飛啊？
還飛上了天……
就是皇阿瑪也不能上天。
乖乖，未來也太可怕了，人都能上天了。
但他從軍事角度來說，女子當兵的效率沒有男的效益高，畢竟男女的體格在那擺着呢。
到時候徒增傷員罷了。
胤褆覺得不可行。
胤礽現在差不多理解了，所以小六那個世界應該就是陶淵明寫的那個桃花源記。
是一個世外桃源。
多離譜的事都發生都不奇怪。
這簡直太荒謬了吧。
Going to heaven?
Why don't you say you escaped into the ground or entered the sea?
Yinzhi and Yinqi had stopped talking. No matter how much they said, they would be slapped in the face by Xiaoliu. Moreover, the Emperor and his two brothers did not look in a good mood.
So they should just stay quiet and be invisible.
Yin Zhuo couldn't help but be naughty.
[Okay, okay, you emperors are great. When you die and your tombs are dug up, there will be many female archaeologists for you to carry. Even your coffins will be displayed for people to see after you die.]
Kangxi: ...
So, the imperial tomb was really destroyed?
When Kangxi heard the news, he almost fainted.
None of them is afraid of retribution and can do such a wicked thing as digging up human graves.
Kangxi gritted his teeth, but he could do nothing about it. Who made his descendants so incompetent that they couldn't even protect their ancestors' coffins?
Kangxi thought of what Xiaoliu had said before about buying a ticket to visit the Forbidden City, so does that mean one needs to buy a ticket to visit his mausoleum as well?
Thinking of the groups of people pointing at his tomb and talking about it, Kangxi wished he could crawl out of his grave and go to his unfilial descendants every day to scold them.
Can you sleep?
You useless descendants.
Yinreng and his descendants were all shocked. How could they do such a thing as digging up a person’s grave?
There won't be any more grave robbers, right?
I can't rest in peace even after death.
Several people were overwhelmed.
Although their ending was not very good, it was somewhat unethical.
Yin Zhuo was not in a good mood when he left the Qianqing Palace.
He felt that the Emperor was not in a good mood either, and wondered if it was because he was worried about him.
After he returned, he saw the words on the desk, which contained the math problem he had given to Fourteen.
This brat should go to the Shangshufang, right?
The Emperor asked my eldest brother to take people to deal with the affairs of the White Lotus Sect.
The second brother also went to work, and the third and fifth brothers were also helping the Emperor.
The other younger brothers also stayed in the study room to study obediently.
Yin Zhuo counted around and found that he had nothing to do.
He sat on the chair and stared at the words on the desk. After a while, he couldn't stand it any longer and called the eunuch to come in.
"Go and find out where the fifth princess has gone?"
Yin Zhuo felt a little depressed and thought he should talk to his fifth sister to see what she thought.
The young eunuch quickly agreed and hurried out to inquire where the fifth princess had gone.
Eunuch Wang was also waiting outside the door. When he heard that the Sixth Prince did not go to the Shangshufang but went to find the Fifth Princess instead, he wondered what was going on.
And he was very puzzled. He had heard that everyone was very grateful to the master for the cowpox incident and that many gifts had been given to the palace gate, but shouldn't this be a happy thing?
Why does Sixth Master feel so heavy-hearted after returning?
Eunuch Wang looked at the expressionless face as he took care of the Sixth Prince who had grown up, and his eyes were filled with pity.
The Emperor won’t be upset with the Sixth Master, right?
Those people were not arranged by Sixth Master. Could it be that someone framed them?
Eunuch Wang was originally very happy, but now he is only worried.
After all, he had stayed in this deep palace for a long time, so he naturally knew how terrible the emperor's heart was.
I hope this won't bring trouble to Master Liu.
What's going on every day?
Sixth Master had his frail body vaccinated against smallpox, so he wouldn't be ruined by this, right?
Eunuch Wang couldn't stay any longer, so he went to find out as well.
Yin Zhuo naturally didn't know that someone was worried about him. He was waiting for the young eunuch to come back.
He wants to build a school.
The previous reforms in the late Qing Dynasty also opened schools and sent talents to study abroad, so he decided to take the lead for more than a hundred years and now he has done it.
Kangxi was still struggling with the cause of his own tomb.
If Yin Zhuo knew about this, he would definitely help him explain it and put his mind at ease.
Jingling has been listed as the first batch of key cultural relics protection units.
Kangxi is under great psychological pressure now.
I was afraid that someone would point at my corpse and scold me. This really proves the saying.
Even death won't bring peace.
Kangxi felt that his life was too difficult.
But if that’s the case, then are the tombs of other emperors the same as his?
Thinking of this, Kangxi felt much better.
People really need to be compared.
The sense of happiness that comes from comparison is also a sense of happiness!
