"Mafa...good luck~"
The little baby was so soft and chubby that he leaned close to Kangxi and said this. Kangxi smiled so hard that his teeth were exposed.
"Hey, Marfa's darling granddaughter..."
Yinreng: "...Did the old man take the wrong medicine today? I never saw him take it seriously before. He didn't even give the baby a name after more than two years. "
Kangxi's eyebrows jumped, and he glared at Yinreng secretly, and then asked Yinzhi,
"I remember that the eldest and second princesses don't have names yet, right?"
Yinzhi nodded.
"not yet."
"My brain can't remember anything when it gets busy."
"In that case, today I will give the eldest princess the name Nichuhe and the second princess the name Guwohe."
Yinzhi was overjoyed when he heard this.
"Thank you, Emperor Father."
"Pearls and white jade, eh... not bad."
These two names were very popular among the Manchus, just as common as Jianguo and Cuihua at a certain period of time.
Just after the Spring Festival, Kangxi asked Liang Jiugong to privately investigate the reasons why his children lived in harmony. Liang Jiugong finally presented him with the news. Kangxi read it carefully and finally rubbed his forehead with a headache.
According to his idea, Yinreng, as the crown prince, should not be so soft-hearted.
Too many emotional ties will make him lose control of the situation.
Therefore, before Yinreng came of age, Kangxi tried his best to let him interact with his brothers and sisters.
Even if they did come into contact, it would only highlight Yinreng's noble status.
He wanted to use this to cause dissatisfaction and even jealousy among his other sons.
An emperor is destined to be a lonely man.
But from the day he heard Yinreng's inner thoughts, things seemed to be developing in a direction that he could not control.
Kangxi was extremely curious about Yinreng's past life and even his experiences in later lives. He wanted to see what he was like originally, so he indulged him again and again.
Whenever Kangxi felt that he could no longer bear it, the tragic end of the Manchus described by Yinreng would appear in his mind.
There is also the guilt and fear that Yinreng ended his life with a cup of poisoned wine in his previous life.
Was Kangxi a ruthless person?
Strictly speaking, not really.
All his considerations stemmed from his status as an emperor, so the decisions he made were all beneficial to the stability of the Qing Dynasty.
Putting aside his identity as an emperor, he is just an ordinary person with flesh and blood, and naturally he has his own likes and dislikes.
During these three years, whenever he had free time, he would think about what attitude he should adopt towards Yinreng.
From Yinreng's inner voice, Kangxi's first certainty was that he and Yinreng had been father and son for two lifetimes. Even if the ending of the previous life was not good, it could prove that he and Yinreng were destined to be father and son.
Yinreng knew the future and could help him avoid the risks that should be avoided, which was actually a great thing for him.
It is not an exaggeration to praise it as auspicious.
But he still felt a little uncomfortable.
The awkwardness between Yinreng and him still created a gap.
Now Yinreng would rather get close to his brothers, with whom he was not very close in the past, than to his father.
Kangxi also tried countless ways to improve his relationship with Yinreng, but unfortunately none of them worked.
The harder he tried, the more he deviated from his previous life, which aroused Yinreng's suspicion and vigilance.
He finally had to give up.
On the night of the third day of the first lunar month in the 30th year of the Kangxi reign, Kangxi slept very uneasily.
In the dream, Yinreng seemed to be the same age as he is now.
He has a beard on his upper lip, clear features, and looks extremely majestic when he is not smiling.
The furnishings in the room looked like the study in Yuqing Palace.
There were many people sitting in the room, some he didn't know and some he knew.
He could vaguely recognize the appearance of Yinzhi, Yinzhen and others.
Kangxi tried hard to get closer and finally heard what they were discussing.
"... Japan has repeatedly invaded Ningguta and Changbai. This time we must teach them a lesson!"
"Ever since the port opened in Fujian, Japan's small moves have indeed increased. If we are to take action, it would be best to make Japan disappear from this world once and for all."
Kangxi heard Yinreng say this.
Some people disagree.
"There are so many ordinary people in Japan. Wouldn't this be against the harmony of nature?"
"Think about the Junggar tribe back then. If they hadn't been massacred the last time, the Qing Dynasty would probably still be enduring their invasions."
Yinreng's face was filled with endless cruelty.
"Eliminate all evil! Japan has a good geographical location and can serve as a border defense for the Northeast Sea."
So no one objected anymore.
Time and space rotate, and the scene changes to the court.
Yinreng strongly encouraged Manchus to engage in business, farming, become craftsmen, and intermarry with Han people.
More than half of the people in the court supported it.
When Kangxi saw himself sitting at the top, his expression was full of murderous intent.
The next second, the scene changed to a family of four.
Kangxi saw that he was an ordinary Han Chinese by his clothes.
The man chewed the steamed bun, his face full of excitement.
"The imperial court is going to recruit common people to build roads again. This time I must sign up. Last time, my mother happened to be in labor, so I missed the opportunity."
"Are you going to collect corvée labor again? Head of the household, you better hurry up. If you can earn a few more taels of silver this time, we'll be able to make some money at home and prepare some food for Baoer to go to school!"
"The imperial court is indeed working for the welfare of ordinary people like us, and our lives are becoming more and more stable."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
As the woman spoke, she clasped her hands together and bowed towards the sky.
Official school?
Kangxi was stunned.
The scene changes again.
It's a military camp.
All the soldiers were training hard, sweat pouring down their cheeks, serious expressions on their faces.
Soldiers not only have to train their physical fitness, but also have to conduct accuracy training for artillery and muskets.
An officer wearing leather boots was standing on a high platform and patrolling.
Kangxi was shocked by the soldiers' unique training methods.
Then, the screen switched.
This time we moved to a seaside port.
It happened that there were several huge ships docked at the port. Kangxi saw a familiar figure beside the port. After careful identification, he confirmed that this person was Yinsi.
Yinsi spoke fluent foreign language and talked with the people who got off the ship. He welcomed them into a yamen and then waited for the port workers to count the cargo.
Soon, the goods were counted and a young man dressed as an official brought Yinsi a list of goods, indicating that everything was correct.
Yinsi smiled and shook hands with the foreigner, then accepted the three boxes of gold that he had brought up at the beginning, and ordered his men to let him go.
Kangxi thought Yinsi was accepting bribes.
However, he soon saw Yinsi asking people to take the gold away and instructed,
"Put this gold in the warehouse and escort it back to Beijing the day after tomorrow."
After everything was over, Yinsi collapsed on the rocking chair like a boneless man.
"Second brother is right. Tariffs are a big part of tax revenue. It would be great if all foreign merchants were like Charles. It would save time and effort..."
