Kangxi sent for the imperial physician, and the one who came was naturally the unlucky old doctor Wang. Looking at Yinzuo lying on the bed groaning with red marks on his back from being whipped, the old man had only one thought in his mind: Heaven, earth, which hero is so brave...
Although the injuries on Yinzuo's body looked very serious, they were indeed serious flesh wounds. With Doctor Wang's superb medical skills, it would be a waste of talent if Kangxi had not specifically asked him to come and treat Yinzuo's wounds. The old man had been treating Yinzuo for so many years, and he knew very well whether this gentleman had a problem taking medicine.
"Your Majesty, although the wound on the prince's body looks scary, it is actually not very serious. As the saying goes, medicine is three-quarters poison. Even if you drink too much tonic, it will not benefit the body. I will get some ointment for the prince to apply. If the fever is gone, you don't need to drink the medicine."
Yinzuo originally thought that he would not be able to escape the fate of being fed bitter medicine soup today, but he did not expect that happiness would come so unexpectedly. It is better not to drink the medicine, it is wonderful not to drink the medicine, it is simply amazing not to drink the medicine.
Yin Zuo had somehow escaped a disaster, and at this moment, his heart was filled with excitement, like a hundred thousand frogs croaking. Then he heard his idiot brother next to him speak.
"Doctor Wang, I don't think it will work. You should prescribe two doses of medicine for Sixth Brother. Look at him now, he's in so much pain that sweat is all over his head. He doesn't look like he's alright."
Yinzuo really only had one thought in his mind right now, this annoying brother was really useless, what did he mean by useless? He should just prescribe two doses of medicine for him to drink. So, it turned out that he wasn't the one who had to be fed the bitter medicine soup.
"Fourteen, shut up! Have you ever heard of this saying: professional matters should be left to professionals? Are you the imperial physician, or is he the imperial physician? Since Imperial Physician Wang said that my injuries are not serious and I don't need to take medicine, then his diagnosis must be correct. Father, please find two people to take Fourteen away from me. I see that he is in pain all over his body..."
The imperial physician said that there was no need to take medicine, and Yinzuo, the person involved, also expressed that he did not want to take medicine. Kangxi, the final decision maker, naturally did not want to force his precious child. After Imperial Physician Wang cooperated with Dexi to treat Yinzuo's wounds, he asked someone to come and carry Yinzuo and his couch to Qingxi Study.
You have to admit that Yinzuo's delicate body was quite resilient this time. Until the next morning when Doctor Wang came to change his dressings, he showed no signs of fever. Doctor Wang's medical skills were unquestionable, and the ointment he prepared was naturally effective. After applying the ointment for two days, the wound on Yinzuo's body was almost healed.
Kangxi has always been a decisive person. Since he has made up his mind to bite off the bone of Japan, in order to avoid more trouble, he naturally strikes while the iron is hot. Of course, Zheye is ready to make a move and will not allow him to drag it out any longer.
Chinese people are generally like this. They want to have a legitimate reason for everything they do. Since Kangxi has decided to send troops to help Zheye seize power, the first thing he needs to do is to find a plausible reason.
Yinzuo half leaned on the couch, just looking at his father, his brother, and his younger brother who had been brainstorming for a whole day but couldn't come up with a feasible result. He was so anxious in his heart. No, is this matter really that difficult?
"Father, I think it would be better if you wrote a letter right now and had it delivered to their king as fast as you could, asking him to cooperate with us in a play. We'll say that Japan has invaded them, and he's sent people to ask us, their suzerain, to help them quell the rebellion."
In fact, this method was not necessary to send troops to Japan, but wasn't there a saying that went something like this? "What you eat, you must spit out; what you take, you must return." Since the First Sino-Japanese War was the beginning of the Sino-Japanese War, then of course he had to return everything to them now, using this same beginning.
"But Sixth Brother, how can you be sure that they will cooperate with us after receiving the letter? What if they hand this letter over to Japan..."
Yinsi has always been a meticulous person, and his worries are not unreasonable. Yinzuo smiled and glanced at Yinsi, who was about to refute Yinsi, raised his hand to signal him to sit down, and then looked in the direction where Yinsi was sitting.
"Xiao Ba is indeed thoughtful. Your concerns are not without reason. You asked me how to be sure that they will cooperate with our performance after receiving our letter. This is actually very simple. It is human nature to seek benefits and avoid harm. The same is true for countries. If they are willing to cooperate, that would be great. If they are not willing..."
Although Yinzuo did not finish his words, everyone present understood what he meant. After all, they had been preparing for many years to bite off the tough bone of Japan. Now the arrow is on the string. If anyone dares to be rude, there is actually no difference between dealing with one and dealing with two.
Kangxi and Yinzhen had discussed the matter but hadn't come to any conclusion. Yinzuo's proposal had broken the deadlock. They sat together and discussed it for a while. The final conclusion was that although this method seemed a bit risky, it wasn't impossible to give it a try...
Now that a specific and feasible solution had been discussed, the next step was naturally to implement it. Kangxi immediately asked someone to bring a letter of divorce written in pen and ink, and after stamping it, he called the secret guard to have the letter delivered secretly.
A few days later, Yinzhen, Yinqi, Thirteenth, and Fourteenth were sent out by Kangxi under various excuses. As for where they actually went, there was no need to ask, as they were simply to the naval bases in various places.
From the day it was decided to send troops to Japan, Kangxi became busy. Apart from eating and sleeping, the rest of his time was filled with endless meetings.
Of course, there were voices of opposition in the court regarding Kangxi's decision to send troops to Japan, but the same thing applies: Kangxi had been in power for many years, so how could he allow others to easily interfere with his decision? His way of handling things was also very tough: either you shut up, or your whole family shut up with you.
Under the high pressure of Emperor Kangxi who overcame all objections, the matter of sending troops to Japan was carried out smoothly. By the beginning of spring in the fiftieth year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, everything was ready, and only the east wind from the Li Dynasty was missing.
What Yinzuo said before was absolutely correct. The saying of seeking benefits and avoiding harm is not only applicable to people, but also to the country. The Li Dynasty is indeed full of outstanding talents. Look, the east wind is blowing here naturally.
The saying that a cannon shot is worth a fortune is not just a casual remark. War has always been a money-burning business. Fortunately, the Qing Dynasty's treasury is much fuller than the treasuries of the same period in history, so it is not particularly difficult to support such a large-scale war.
