"What?" Wang Fuchen didn't understand for a moment, and looked blankly at Wang Zhongxiao, who had a "loyal smile" on his face, "Arresting Oboi like the third prince Zhu? Brother, what do you mean?"
"Dad, what I mean is that we, the final ministers of the Qing Dynasty, can't just be a temporary minister. We have to treat the end of the Qing Dynasty as a long-term business...right?"
"That's right," Wang Fuchen nodded, "I am a loyal minister, so of course I will be loyal to the Qing Dynasty for a long time!"
Wang Zhongxiao said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Dad, to put it bluntly, I am more like the last minister of the Qing Dynasty. I am knowledgeable, I am familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics, I am good at martial arts, and I look like a talented person. I am a pillar of the Qing Dynasty. The most important thing is that I have never rebelled. But what about you? You have no knowledge, you are not as good as me in martial arts, you are... old, and you have done a lot. Regarding corruption and perverting the law, the most troublesome thing is that you have a lot of old masters..."
Wang Fuchen got angry before his son could finish what he said, and cursed: "You little thing, you talk nonsense all day long to piss off your father, believe it or not, I will tear your stinky mouth apart?"
"Dad... Do you understand the principle of not defeating the family if there are dissensions in the family?" Wang Zhongxiao patiently began to teach his father - this is also a problem! Whose father is responsible for teaching?
At this time, Wang Zhongxiao felt a little hungry, so he picked up a soft bun stuffed with chives and eggs and took a big bite, then chewed it a few times, swallowed it, and then said to Wang Fuchen, "We want to be a long-lasting terminal." Chen, you have to have that unique skill of having one without me and one with my essence! Just like this steamed bun from the Zhang family...that is a unique skill! And this Zhuaobai is from our family. What a unique skill!
Think about it, who is this Obai? That was the number one warrior in Manchuria. He had been the backbone of the Two Yellow Banners for a long time. Most of the Manchurian officials in the officialdom had received his favor... If Obai escaped from Beijing and let the Manchus capture him, Can the emperor rest assured? "
"It seems...can't." Wang Fuchen shook his head.
Wang Fuchen added: "If there is an Obai like the third prince Zhu lurking somewhere, will the emperor be worried that there are Obai's gang members lurking among the Manchus? If the emperor feels that the Manchus are not completely reliable, then you two officials here Li Chuang, two ministers in the Ming Dynasty, two ministers in the Qing Dynasty... Six ministers, don't they seem so unreliable? And the Han army like me, who has nothing to do with Obai, does it seem special? Is it reliable?"
"Are you trying to raise Ao's self-respect?" Wang Fuchen really understood. "This is a bit difficult...Aren't you afraid that raising Ao's self-respect will turn into trouble?"
Wang Zhongxiao said: "Dad, it all depends on manpower... Let's take a closer look and see how we can arrange things clearly for Ao Bai. It's best to arrange a life-or-death plan for him! This way we can catch Ao Bai every day." , we can never catch him! An Obai can guarantee our stability for at least twenty years."
.......
Imperial City Xiyuan, Yingtai Island, Yingxun Pavilion.
Today is an auspicious day for blind dates, plotting, and deception!
Just after lunch, "Living Lu Bu" Wang Fuchen, who came all the way from Yunnan, was led by his filial son "Lu Xiaobu" Wang Zhongxiao, walked through Xi'an Gate and entered Xiyuan, and then went directly to Taiye Pond. Yingtai Island among them. They also scattered red envelopes along the way, and each of the guards, eunuchs, and palace maids they met along the way received a five-tael silver note. They all also knew that today "Living Lu Bu" Wang Fuchen and "Sports Diao Chan" Zhang Xiaoyu had a "Yingtai blind date" good days.
I don’t know if I am afraid that some grand master will come to snatch this "Sai Diao Chan". This Yingtai Island used for blind dates is very well guarded. Xiao Guizi, the most trusted eunuch of the emperor, and Guanyin Bao, the second-class bodyguard, are together on Yingtai Island. The entrance to Taiwan Island is guarded, and no one is allowed to enter the island.
Outside the Yingxun Pavilion, which is used for blind dates, the candidate bride "Sai Diao Chan" and the Empress Dowager's most confidant aunt Su Ma Lagu watched the blind date... Let the candidate bride watch the blind date, There is no one else. Although Zhang Xiaoyu, the "Sports Diao Chan", was reluctant, she could only follow Aunt Sumala out of the Yingxun Pavilion and set up a "warning line" far away from the pavilion. Don’t know who to guard against? This Lu Bu and Diao Chan were on a blind date, and asked Diao Chan to go out to guard against Dong Zhuo?
I don’t know whether Grand Master Dong wants to rob Diao Chan or Lu Bu?
When Zhang Xiaoyu was questioning the authenticity of "The Romance of the Three Kingdoms" in his heart, in the Yingxun Pavilion, the disgusting drama of the emperor's kindness and his loyalty had already been played out. "Lu Xiaobu" and "Living Lu Bu", the father and son loyal ministers, were now One stood with his head held high and his chest out on the right side of Kangxi and Bumubutai who were sitting on the chairs. He looked like he could beat them; the other was kneeling on the ground, crying and nagging, begging for more money!
"Your Majesty, my slave has had a hard time living in Yunnan for more than ten years! That old boy Wu Sangui managed to raise a hundred thousand soldiers with thirty or forty thousand soldiers' pay. They all share the joys and sorrows of the Western Fandom, but what is a slave? I am not Wu Sangui. But they can only suffer along with them. Apart from the regular salary, they can't get any oil or water... It is said that they are serving as a general in the local area, but in fact they are worse than being a bodyguard in Beijing! Now the slaves have other things in their homes. There are eight little wives and a dozen children to support. Although it is not impossible to untie the pot, life is tight these days! Xiaoyu will probably have to endure hardship if he follows the slaves..."
"Wang Fuchen, since you have no money, why do you keep a concubine with eight rooms?" Wang Fuquan, who was standing next to Kangxi, couldn't understand, so he couldn't help but ask.
"Your Majesty," Wang Fuchen laughed when he heard this, "haven't you seen "The Plum in the Golden Ping"? In it, a high-ranking official from Ximen doesn't spend much money to have a concubine, and many times he can make a lot of money... ..I’m just like that high-ranking official from Ximen!”
How glorious it is to be like Ximen Qing!
Bu Mu Butai looked at Wang Fuchen, then at Wang Zhongxiao, and nodded: "Wang Fuchen, Wang Zhongxiao, you two are much better than Ximen Qing... But you are such a loyal minister, my Qing Dynasty We can’t let you make money in the same way as Ximen Qing. Emperor, after you eradicate Obai’s gang, you can reward Wang Fuchen and his son with more land and houses!”
Kangxi smiled and said: "My grandson will definitely reward them heavily!"
"I thank you for your kindness, but I also want to ask for two more favors..." Wang Fuchen said with a smile, "I have a large family, and my two legitimate sons are incompetent, so I want to ask for a worldly job for them. Ask for another identity as a disciple of the Eight Banners."
"Okay, okay, I agree!" Kangxi waved his hand and said with a smile, "When I take over the power, I will arrange the fields, houses, land, and worldly duties for you, and then reward you with some shops to collect rent, and keep them for you and your son to be prosperous. Be rich and prosperous for a lifetime!”
"My slave, thank you for your kindness!" Wang Fuchen was finally satisfied and kowtowed happily, with a greedy and loyal smile on his face.
However, Kangxi and Bumbutai were not afraid of Wang Fuchen and Wang Zhongxiao being corrupt, they were afraid that they would be greedy for money and not do anything!
"Wang Fuchen, when can you take action?" Kangxi looked at Wang Fuchen and asked.
"Tomorrow!" Wang Fuchen said.
Kangxi was shocked when he heard this, "Tomorrow? Are you a little anxious?"
"Urgent?" Wang Fuchen said, "Your Majesty, this matter must not be delayed...Although Obai has no righteous name, he has been in power for many years, with his followers all over the capital and his eyes and ears deep inside the palace. Our conspiracy is We can't hide it from him for too long...and we have to delay for a while, just because we want to find more helpers. But people's hearts are separated from each other, who knows whether those helpers will defect to Obai? Once Obai knows , maybe we should learn from Dong Zhuo and Cao Cao!
Therefore, the slave believes that the success or failure of this matter does not depend on the number of people involved, but on the preemptive attack and unpreparedness. As long as the emperor can defeat Obei in one fell swoop, then the matter will be successful. Even if the emperor cannot take down Oboi in one fell swoop, as long as he can control the Forbidden City and control the imperial guards at the Imperial Guard Office, the Imperial Guard Guards, the Shangsanqi Guards on Duty, and the Xiaoqi Battalion. Relying on the emperor's righteousness, he issued an edict to attack Ao Bai and his buddies, leaving the others alone. Then the Eight Banners disciples in Beijing will definitely side with the emperor, and Obai will still die! "
Kangxi heard what Wang Fuchen said made sense, but he was still a little undecided, so he cast a consulting look at his grandmother Bumu Butai.
Bumbutai is relatively experienced in rebellion, and he knows best that the emperor's most powerful weapon in rebellion is his righteousness! Now after hearing what Wang Fuchen said, the old lady also made up her mind and said with a smile: "Wang Fuchen is right, Aobai is not an eighth-level prince, let alone the regent. The Eight Banners... As long as the Qing Emperor was not held hostage by him, he would not be able to command the Eight Banners soldiers in Beijing!
At that time, the emperor can issue an edict and order the eight banners in the city to command the yamen and the princes of each family to send troops to attack Aobai! So...we can't lose this battle at all! "
