Chapter 472 The threat of the small sampan: treating the prince as a Han?
Chapter 472 The threat of the small sampan: treating the prince as a Han?
Kangxi sneered: "Everyone, you speak better than you sing. I don't want to be deceived by you. I will just wait and see how you perform."
Prince:......
Your son is so diligent that he leaves you, the emperor, with nothing to do every day. How else can you work harder?
Although it would be good to be converted to a regular employee, it is what he has been looking forward to for many years.
but……
Can working for a boss and working for a brother have the same mentality?
Judging from his own experience, he also hoped that his Khan Ama would work for a few more years, forcing his brothers to work hard and build a large territory for the Qing Dynasty.
That way in the future hehehe.
Just as he was daydreaming, the eldest prince beside him handed him a handkerchief in time: "Wipe it off, your saliva is almost dripping onto the floor tiles. Tsk tsk, you are the crown prince of a country, but you are so sloppy."
Prince:! ! !
If there weren't some taboos during the New Year, he would have wanted to hang up his talkative brother and beat him.
Should I just slap his hand away and tell him that his bad mouth is a disease and needs treatment?
Then I received an invitation to compete.
Three, two, one!
The prince said nothing, but counted down silently. After three counts, the eldest prince, who had become more and more arrogant after becoming an iron-hat prince, was scolded by the Khan.
He was scolded to the point of doubting his life.
The Third Prince, who had always been on good terms with the Crown Prince, told him not to waste it and used the handkerchief to wipe his tears.
Then, not surprisingly, the Third Prince was also scolded.
In the end, from the eldest prince to the fourteenth, all those who had participated in the fight for the throne among the nine princes in the historical line were specifically scolded.
The rest of the people were also to be changed if they had any, and to be crowned if they didn't.
From then on, the only good one among them was the Eighteenth Prince who had not been present.
All the princes present except the Eighteenth Prince: ...
I felt like I would rather be beaten than not ask my father the emperor whether he had forgotten how many times he had been criticized so many times.
Fortunately, they remembered the threat of the sampan and finally stopped talking.
Instead, they all promised to be cautious and not make the same mistakes in history again.
but……
The tenth prince, who had the purest bloodline and the most courage, scratched his head and smiled innocently: "My sons have been back for a while. For the merit of destroying two countries, should Khan Ama also reward them?"
Hehe, the Iron Hat King!
He has also been fond of her for a long time.
Kangxi glared at them coldly and said, "A dog's stomach can't hold two ounces of sesame oil. Would I treat you unfairly?"
It's no use waiting a little longer, just to celebrate his sixtieth birthday.
According to the original historical line, in the 52nd year of Emperor Kangxi's reign, he also held an imperial examination and a banquet for a thousand elders.
The Qing Dynasty is no longer what it used to be. Shouldn't things be more lively?
For example, when the princes presented gifts, there were newsstands, land reforms, and maps of new provinces, Japanese provinces, and Korean provinces.
There are also various epoch-making inventions.
Every detail, every aspect, describes his various great achievements in the past fifty years since he ascended the throne at the age of eight.
It is both a demonstration and a deterrent to the neighboring countries attending the conference.
What if?
What if there is a second Korea? Wouldn't the Qing Dynasty be able to conquer that country without fighting?
Kangxi smiled, his eyes full of hope.
If Yinzhen saw this, he would have to complain about it: "As expected, people are greedy and taking advantage of others is addictive!"
But he doesn't know wow~
He hadn't even enjoyed two days of happy vacation when the prince spotted him: "Good brother, I know you have the most ideas, so can you help me?"
Yin Xuan looked at him cautiously: "Prince, please tell me what's going on first."
"I will do my best to help if I can."
If you can't help, please don't say anything and don't hurt the harmony among our brothers.
"Yes, yes, definitely."
The prince smiled and said, "Isn't it Khan Ama's 600,000th birthday coming up soon? He has worked diligently for the Qing Dynasty for more than 50 years, and now he is 60 years old. As his sons, we should plan a good birthday banquet for him."
Uh-huh.
Yinzhen nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: [So it’s coming? This led to Qianlong’s eldest nephew imitating him crazily and constantly surpassing him. It turned into a death feast for the old man──the Banquet for Thousand Old Men?]
puff~
cough cough cough.
The prince, who was often attacked unexpectedly and thought he had perfected facial expression management, couldn't help but spit out his tea.
After finally stopping myself, I saw a flash of disgust from my stinky little brother.
Prince:......
I feel a little angry, but I can't express it, and I dare not express it.
I can only say that I'm sorry to have embarrassed my eighteenth brother.
He wanted to hold an unforgettable birthday banquet for his Khan Ama, but it was just an empty goal without any eye-catching content.
That’s why I came to my eighteenth brother and asked him to give me two golden ideas.
Forget about the Banquet for a Thousand Elders and the like.
Someone mentioned this earlier and was scolded by Khan Ama.
what?
Yinzhen was stunned: "Why?"
"Because of the cold weather and slippery roads, it is inconvenient to travel. The old man is physically weak and cannot withstand long journeys. He is also not suitable for strong emotional fluctuations such as extreme joy or sorrow. For all these reasons combined, it is very likely that after attending the banquet, his old illness will be triggered, or even life-threatening."
"Khan Ama has always been kind and benevolent, so he naturally doesn't want to do this."
After seriously maintaining the image of his own Khan Father, the prince asked Yinzhen for his opinion again.
How could Yinxuan be willing to let the two brothers rack their brains here?
They worked together to put the blame on all the brothers and successfully upgraded the secret talk between the two brothers into a grand discussion involving princes one to eighteen and Princess Kejing.
Oh, there is also the eldest grandson of the emperor, Hongxi, who strongly requests to join.
Feasts, singing and dancing, those traditional programs that have been included in previous years will definitely not be missed this year.
While retaining the classics, there must also be a certain degree of innovation.
cough cough.
Princess Kejing coughed lightly: "I think that in addition to this, it can also give a little shock to the vassal states, neighboring countries, chieftains of all sizes, and Mongolian princes who come to the birthday banquet."
Yin Xuan raised both hands in agreement: "Okay, okay, this is good. Let's hold a military parade and show off our muscles appropriately."
What about rifled cannons, repeating muskets, and the first and second generation tanks of the invincible General.
Let these countries, chieftains of all sizes, and Mongolian princes see it for themselves.
"Once they realize how futile it is to oppose the Qing dynasty, I believe it will have an unexpected effect on maintaining border stability and advancing the process of the land reform."
"Well, there will be many countries that are fascinated by the might of our Qing Dynasty and may express their intention to purchase. Then, after our firearms are upgraded, those old models that are too old to be used and too useless to be destroyed can be turned into treasures, right?"
[Selling junk for a sky-high price, and then using the gold and silver collected to continue developing new products, what kind of virtuous cycle is this?]
[and……]
[And most importantly, when firearms become something that can be bought with money, those neighboring countries will naturally no longer waste energy on in-depth research, thus eliminating the possibility of being overtaken from the root. Killing two birds with one stone, hehehe.]
