Qing Dynasty: After reading my heart, Kangxi and the Nine Dragons are united

Chapter 18 It’s not just the inner treasury, your national treasury is almost empty!

However, soon, Khan Ama turned back into the Khan Ama he was familiar with.

Ok.

As soon as the eighteenth brother was sent back to the prince's residence by the eunuch, Khan Ama immediately turned cold and glared at him with disdain: "What's that look in your eyes?"

What did Yinreng dare to say?

I could only kneel down obediently and said, "It's nothing. As a father, I envy my eighteenth brother's filial piety towards my father Khan."

Ever since he learned about the nine sons' fight for the throne, Kangxi looked down on every troublesome son who was involved.

But his love for the emperor's eldest grandson only grew.

Especially after hearing about what happened to Heshen and Wang Danwang, he felt more and more that if he had not deposed the crown prince, and Hongxi had taken over the throne in the future, he would have been ten or a hundred times better than that Qianlong.

Seeing that the prince actually showed disdain for his great grandson, didn't his vicious tongue come back?

He gave a loud scolding.

Yinreng was so dizzy from all the scolding that when he saw his elder brother whom he hated the most, he acted like a savior: "Thank God, you are here."

Yinzhi: ...

I seriously suspect that this guy was scolded stupidly.

But he had not forgotten what dirty work he had taken on in the history told by his eighteenth brother. He was careful in what he said and did, especially in showing his deep brotherly love for his second brother, the crown prince, in front of the old man!

Hearing this, he bowed and said, "The Ministry of War is not very busy today. I came here immediately after hearing Khan Ama's summons. What happened?"

Whoops!

What else can I do?

The emperor's father was furious at what Xiao Shiba revealed. He was the unlucky punching bag who was always blamed.

The officials in Ming and Qing dynasties were paid poorly, and accordingly, everyone was very good at making money for themselves.

After three years of clearing the magistrate's office, he received one hundred thousand snowflakes and silver.

During the reign of Emperor Qianlong, Wang Danwang dragged the entire Gansu province into corruption. Similarly, during the reign of Emperor Qianlong, Heshen's property was confiscated and 800 million yuan was seized, which was enough to cover the total fiscal revenue of the court for 15 years.

There were gasps one after another, and the princes who arrived one after another were all stunned.

Indeed, ever since the day they heard Eighteenth Brother's inner thoughts, they had a premonition that the days ahead would be exciting and fulfilling.

But I never dreamed that it could be so exciting!

Everlasting Heaven!

The Ninth Prince Yinzhen, who was most sensitive to numbers and had a grudge against the Fourth Prince for shaving his hair and cutting his braids, and who would face the humiliation of changing his name and being imprisoned in the future, exclaimed, "Brother, how incompetent must your son be to have raised such a corrupt official right under your nose?"

Yinzhen was shocked and angry.

When he heard his eighteenth brother muttering about the prosperous Kangxi, Yongzheng and Qianlong eras, he thought that Hongshi did a good job.

As a result, he only enjoyed his success for a few days before this happened?

Yinzhen gritted his teeth, the wounds on his face looked even more hideous: "It's my fault. In the past, I had Honghui, the legitimate son, so I wasn't so strict with the illegitimate sons. Later, the legitimate son died young, and the second son was born with congenital deficiencies and could die at any time... In the huge Fourth Prince's Mansion, Hongshi is the only healthy and smart one, and I couldn't bear to be too strict."

As a result of being spoiled, he turned out to be such a good-for-nothing?

It must be that he is stupid and incompetent, and that he appoints treacherous officials.

The government was corrupted and the law was relaxed. The successors were not able to turn the tide, which led to the decline of the Qing Dynasty, which only lasted for twelve emperors before ending in humiliation.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got. He knelt down and said, "Don't worry, Khan Ama. I will strictly educate my son from now on and will never indulge him again. Even if it means exterminating my family, I will never let him grow up to be a parasite to the country."

Ok.

Kangxi nodded.

They had hundreds of thousands of Manchus ruling over tens of millions of Han people. It was extremely difficult to rule over a large force with a small number of people, so every single person had to be used carefully.

Naturally, there would not be the habit of keeping vassal kings in captivity like pigs like in the Ming Dynasty.

Even with the help of Xiao Fuxing, there would no longer be nine princes competing for the throne, and there was a high probability that Yongzheng would not have ascended the throne.

As the only healthy male in the Fourth Prince's Mansion, that boy is undoubtedly the crown prince.

Of course we have to educate him well and not let him be so stupid and incompetent.

Because Yinzhen was the old Qianlong, and did not mention Qianlong's age, name, and current age. So he tricked Hongshi invisibly, making him receive a very strict set meal at a young age.

Strict father, strict grandfather, strict uncle, strict uncle and strict gentlemen.

Even the maids, old women and servants who served him were combed like a comb.

I promise to be loyal and I promise to be strict.

Hongshi, who was just five years old and had just started attending Wuyi Zhai this year, burst into tears, but received no sympathy. Even his uncle, who had always loved him the most and wanted to take him home to raise, changed his attitude.

It is said that reading makes people wise, so he must study hard.

You won’t be easily deceived in the future.

The little guy was so angry that he gritted his teeth and said, "My nephew can't even live well now, what's the point of talking about the future?"

Yinzhen didn't know that his inner voice could be heard by his father and brothers, so naturally he didn't know what kind of sin he had indirectly committed and what kind of abyss Hongshi had fallen into.

He was filled with sorrow, and couldn't help but be distracted when attending court: "Oh, how should I act cute and coquettishly to make father Kangxi agree to give my beautiful mother a higher rank?"

[Waiting online, very urgent!]

The princes listened carefully, thinking they might hear some important reminder, but they all stared in amazement.

Look at the eighteenth brother with a frown on his face, and then look at Ama Khan with a face as black as ink.

Everyone wants to say something but doesn't dare to, and they are almost tangled up.

Fifteen or sixteen, my heart was in my throat, and I wanted to rush forward and interrupt the little guy without paying any attention to the rules, so that he wouldn't speak out without restraint and let my mother down.

Khan Ama and his brothers were watching closely in this solemn and dignified court.

They are not eighteen years old and do not have his courage.

Khan Ama gave them a disapproving look and they didn't dare to go on.

I can only continue to listen to my eighteenth brother muttering in his heart, complaining about father Kangxi being stingy.

The beauty's mother was so beautiful and young, and she was lucky enough to marry that old man. She gave birth to three princes in a row. But she is still a little noble lady, not even qualified to live in the side hall.

There are so many young ladies crowded in Chuxiu Palace, and their family backgrounds are better than his mother's. They form a group to bully his mother, which is simply too much.

Kang·Old Man·Xi was so angry that he was fuming and was about to refute.

As a result, the familiar feeling of suffocation came again, making him uncomfortable but also calming down instantly.

Facing the surprised looks of the civil and military officials in the court, he grabbed the Zhen Shanhe on the imperial desk and slammed it hard: "What a bastard! I entrusted the important treasury to him, and he dared to be so greedy?"

The ministers shrank back, and the startled Yinzhen suddenly realized: "Oh~ So you are angry with Ling Pu! Didn't you let the rats guard the rice jar? Not only the inner treasury, your national treasury is also so empty that the rats are running away~"

[Rumor has it that at the end of Emperor Kangxi's reign, the entire Qing treasury was left with only eight million taels due to the officials' borrowing. Tsk tsk, that's only one percent of what Ren Heshen embezzled!]
