Kangxi was also stunned by this long insult for a moment. Before he could react, he heard the Left Censor-in-Chief of the Supervisory Office, Fu Cha Ma Qi, angrily accusing him,
"This is insulting! This is truly insulting! The Crown Prince is full of foul language, no different from the common people. The Crown Prince is seeking a tutor, and the tutor should possess the five virtues of a gentleman. Judging from the Crown Prince's words and actions, his tutor may be lazy. Please, Your Majesty, conduct a thorough investigation!"
The spearhead was directed at several princes' teachers.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Yuanmeng, Zhang Ying and others who were standing under the eaves of the door knelt down.
"I, your humble servant, acknowledge my guilt!"
Another Left Censor-in-Chief, Chen Tingjing, kept his gaze on Yinreng for a long time, his eyes full of admiration.
As for the rest of the officials who were named by Yinreng, they all knelt on the ground obediently and dared not say a word.
All the noble families had purchased land from the bannermen, and everyone chose to keep it secret. Only the prince, like a fool, revealed the matter openly.
But they were not too panicked. After all, the law does not hold everyone responsible. There were too many families involved, and the emperor could not hold everyone accountable.
If you look into it carefully, those good-for-nothings in the royal family cannot escape blame either.
Therefore, in the hearts of these people, there was only anger and shame at having their secrets exposed.
Yisan'a, who was directly scolded by Yinreng, felt both aggrieved and helpless at the moment.
Thinking of how Soetu had tried his best to win him over a few years ago, Yisan'a couldn't help but look up and glare at Soetu.
Which father-in-law would cheat his son-in-law like this?
Yinreng glanced at Ma Qi sideways,
"Oh, you didn't feel it was disrespectful when you were doing it, but now that I'm saying it out loud, it's disrespectful! Look at you all, all fat and bloated, who would be willing to condescend to walk among the common people?"
Since I've already cursed, I might as well curse to my heart's content today.
"Why, you pretend to be a compassionate bodhisattva all day long, and you really think you are a bodhisattva? Why don't you do something kind and compassionate? You give out porridge during the day and steal money and kill people at night. Do you really think that no one knows about these things?"
"You still have the nerve to talk to me about the five virtues of a gentleman. How can you possibly be any different from being gentle, kind, respectful, and frugal? Even if I speak foul language every day, I'm still better than you, the lackeys in human skin!"
"If you don't have a mirror at home, you can always pee. If you have time, you should pee more often to look at yourself, so you don't forget what kind of animal you are."
Yinzhi: A bit vulgar, but inexplicably satisfying.
Yinzhen: I didn’t know there was a way to curse people. I’ve learned something new!
Yinqi: How come my second brother has offended so many people? I have to remind him.
Fucha Maqi's face turned pale and blue after being scolded. He then swung his sleeves, knelt down and said in a deep voice,
"Your Majesty, I have been an official since I was a young dancer. It has been over twenty years now. I believe I am worthy of your love and respect, and I am worthy of the trust of the people. What the Crown Prince said today is truly heartbreaking!"
"I have worked diligently for so many years, and now I am only being called a 'ghost in human skin'. Your Highness, aren't you afraid that this will get out and dishearten the scholars of the world?"
Ma Qi also took the risk.
He was not among the names the prince had just mentioned, but he mentioned his brother Fucha Maska.
If the brother's guilt is proven, their family will have a hard time in the future.
Ma Qi raised his head to look at Kangxi's expression.
According to his assumption, since the generation of his great-grandfather, his family has been staunch royalists, and Kangxi should not allow the prince to take action against their family.
"I don't know when Lord Fucha became synonymous with the world's scholars. You come from a wealthy family. Your father, Mi Sihan, was the Minister of Revenue. When you first entered the court, you were appointed Deputy Minister of Works. You've never experienced the hardship of studying for a single day. How can you have the nerve to represent the world's scholars?"
"you!"
"What do you mean by 'you'? What did I say that hurt you? Why are you so impatient to jump out and ask for a scolding?"
Kangxi's temples were throbbing when he heard this. He saw that if Yinreng continued to curse, Ma Qi would really find a place to hit his head and die, so he quickly stopped him.
“That’s enough!”
Yinreng rolled his eyes and closed his mouth speechlessly.
Little guy, that’s all your fighting ability.
He can curse all day long without repeating himself.
As for Ma Qi, he burst into tears when Kangxi called for a halt.
"Your Majesty... I have diligently studied poetry and literature since childhood and have devoted myself to the Qing Dynasty for over twenty years. Even if I have no merit, I have certainly worked hard. Every word the Crown Prince said today accuses me of being timid and shameless. Are you trying to chill the hearts of this old minister?"
Yinreng sneered and was about to curse a few more times when Kangxi glared at him fiercely.
Yinreng: “…”
"Why are you glaring at me? I'm not allowed to tell the truth! Worrying about this and that every day, an emperor's life is so frustrating, it's a waste of his status as an emperor."
Yinreng knew that Kangxi's patience had reached its limit and that he would suffer no good if he continued to scold him.
So he shut up wisely.
Important officials in the court who were on good terms with Ma Qi's family also began to speak up for Ma Qi.
"Your Majesty, the Censor is an upright official with remarkable achievements. Your Highness the Crown Prince should not have said such hurtful words!"
"The Crown Prince just spoke vulgarly, constantly referring to pigs, dogs, and beasts. It is truly unbearable to listen to. Your Majesty, please punish him severely!"
"That's right. Everyone in the court, civil and military, knows that Lord Fucha is respectful and respectful. How come the Crown Prince has described him as a treacherous minister who has committed all sorts of evil?"
"If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. The prince is scolding those who appear to be righteous but do evil things behind the scenes. What does this have to do with you?"
