In the 53rd year of Kangxi, the first major case of the year.

The Qing Dynasty's first fraud case of pretending to be a prince started a joint trial at the Ministry of Criminal Justice on the [-]th day of the first lunar month.

Let's say that half a month ago, Meng Guangzu was blocked by Prince Yong in Zhili Mansion, and he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down on the spot.

He asked himself that he had a thick skin, a sharp tongue, and a very stable mind, but he was overwhelmed by a question after a face-to-face meeting.

——Professing to be a guest of Prince Cheng, what is the proof?

In the past, some officials asked similar questions, but they were fooled by fake keepsake jade pendants.

Because more than [-]% of the officials who were deceived by him had never spoken a few words to Yinzhi, and [-]% were senior officials who had not returned to the capital for many years.

And he didn't ask people to ask for bribes indiscriminately, he went to a place to learn about the situation in the market first.

One is to avoid court sweets and pastries, the other is to avoid people with good brains, and the third is to withdraw as soon as the situation is wrong.

In the past year and a half, he traveled through the three provinces of Sichuan, Shaanxi, and Shanxi, and he became more and more adept at deceiving.

Talk to people when you see people, talk to ghosts when you see ghosts.As long as you find out the weaknesses of those officials who are being targeted, they are all afraid of trouble and want to be promoted.

How comfortable and comfortable it would have been to cheat people and get money, no profit at all.

But I forgot the old saying, how can you not get your shoes wet when you often walk by the river, and this time, someone put your head in the water and you will drown.

It's not that his tricks are not in place, but that it's useless to borrow Prince Cheng's big tiger flag.

Trembling, Meng Guangzu took out the so-called token, but the fourth master insisted on the spot that it was a fake.

Although this thing is a forgery, judging by Prince Yong's posture, even if it is true, it has to become a fake.

Prince Yong said that the third elder brother was an upright literati, and he would never ask his servants to ask for money from his courtiers. How could he let a villain ruin his reputation.Whether the person surnamed Meng is a real fraud or a fake fraud, he must be escorted to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice.

Finished!

Meng Guangzu knew that he was doomed, and the fourth master dared to investigate the case of abolishing the prince, let alone pretending to be a villain.

The fourth master who is afraid of everything is afraid of private visits by Weifu, his good luck has finally come to an end.As soon as he returned to Beijing, pretending to be a servant of the prince to ask for bribes, this was enough to drag him to Caishikou for questioning.

If you hadn't engaged in impersonation and fraud from the beginning, if you had made a few good fortunes and closed them instead of growing your appetite, you would not have ended up like this.

Want to ask Meng Guangzu if he regrets it?He must regret it, but it's hard to say that he would live his life according to his duties if he went back in time.

Finished!

In the capital, there is also Yinzhi himself, who is not mournful.

For the New Year's Eve, Yinzhi disgusted the boss at the New Year's Eve banquet.

As the eldest son of the emperor, Yinti surpassed himself in terms of age, so he couldn't be allowed to surpass him in terms of title.

Complaints are cool for a while, and retribution comes quickly.

A misfortune fell from the heavens, and someone was so ambitious that he dared to pretend to be the prince's servant to ask for bribes.

The twenty princes chose to raise the banner of Prince Cheng, so why can't they be replaced?

Meng Guangzu also explained the reason, because there are only two princes among the princes.If you want to pretend, you have to pretend to be a high-ranking person, and the officials are convinced.

Pretending to be a member of Prince Yong's family to ask for bribes is not in line with the simple perception of the public, so we can only choose Prince Cheng.

After hearing the confession, Yinzhi was almost so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas were born.

He was still being picked and picked, and left with unsolvable choices.The shit bowl was put on his head, and he didn't get any benefits, and he was punished by Kangxi in the end.

The decree of descending to the noble came soon.

If you reprimand the third elder brother for being blinded by others, you will use your cleverness to keep track of your brother's movements, and you will not have the quality of brotherly respect at all.

The position of the prince is temporarily gone. If you want to regain the position, you must reflect on yourself, cultivate yourself, and be a good person.

As an honorary victim of a fraud case, Yinzhi was severely punished instead of a single word of comfort.Although this is expected, but when the order is actually received, my heart is still cool.

Who is to blame?

Meng Guangzu must have had a bad death, and he blamed himself for pulling Yinti on the New Year's Eve dinner table, lifting a stone and hitting himself in the foot.

At the dinner, everyone knew that the third child had exposed Yinti to look for fairy grass, so they believed that the third child had placed a lot of eyeliner outside.

Since the third child has those eyeliners outside, why didn't he discover Meng Guangzu's illegal behavior in time?

Isn't this just acting ignorantly and viciously, not using energy on the right way, just thinking about stabbing brothers and brothers in the back.

In this way, how could it be possible for Yinzhi to retain the princely throne.

Unless Kangxi was eccentric and pampered the third child like he did to the deposed prince, he would not punish him.The results proved that the assumption was not true, Yinfeng was once favored by the emperor, and he was afraid that he was the only one, and Yinzhi was not in the same boat.

Some people worry, others rejoice.

Kangxi's mood was very bright, and finally he looked forward to returning the fourth child to the capital!

This will also clarify the reason why the fourth child did not go home in time for the New Year's Eve, because he went to catch a big fraudster.

A reason why the name cannot be changed is justified. Meng Guangzu's scourge must not be allowed to scourge officials outside.

The fourth child acted resolutely but with a sense of propriety, categorizing the case as a fraud.

If this incident were to change the solver and the victim, for example, if the youngest met someone pretending to be another prince, the trend of the case would definitely not be the same as it is now.

The third child seized the opportunity to step on his brother a few times, fearing that he would characterize impersonation and fraud as the prince and ask for bribes.

On the one hand, Kangxi lamented that the fourth child had an excellent heart, and on the other hand, he also realized that he must be determined as soon as possible to prevent the third child from jumping around again.

Now, I have taken the position of the third prince first, so that the fourth brother can be kind after he ascends the throne, and he can add officials to his brother and take it for his own use.

There are not many good fathers like me in the world.

At this time, Kangxi boasted silently, but questioned with a straight face.

"As the old saying goes, if your parents are with you, you don't travel far away. It's good for you. If you change the return route temporarily after traveling for four or five years, do you still have my father in your eyes?"

"I know I was wrong."

Wu Fuyi's attitude of admitting mistakes is top-notch, anyway, after accepting it humbly, he will never change after repeated admonitions.

However, explanations still need to be explained.

"When I am away from home, my son misses Khan Ama all the time, and hopes to return home as soon as possible every day. However, the plan cannot keep up with the changes. The development of Europa is unexpected, so it is necessary to investigate carefully. Fortunately, the emperor's order was not missed, and there is a small gain. My son promises that this time, the next time will not be an example."

Kangxi: Hehe!

He understood all the reasons why the fourth child came back late, and he also saw the various benefits brought by the late return, but the feeling of aggrieved could not be eliminated.

Dare to say that it is not an example?Absolutely no next time!This man is going to tie him up in the territory of the Qing Dynasty!

"Go, go, after paying your respects to your mother, you should go back to the mansion and reflect on yourself."

Kangxi waved his hand, telling the fourth child to leave as if chasing flies away.

"You homeless Amma should take care of you. Last year, Hongyun gave you a granddaughter; last year, Honghui got married and did not wait for Amma to come home. Mo Yaqi is 17 years old this year, you think about your in-laws Have you chosen someone? Let me take care of this pile of family affairs."

"My son obeys."

It's been three days since Wu Fuyi returned to Beijing, and he spent most of his time in the Ministry of Criminal Justice because he was handling a huge fraud case.

He only heard a general idea of ​​the changes in the mansion, and asked Yinzhen to ask Su Peisheng for details.Now Kangxi does not mention official business, but let the fourth child handle the housework, which is a holiday in disguise.

Have a good holiday!

Even if it seems to others that Prince Yong was not immediately entrusted with important tasks when he returned to Beijing, there are not many days left for the fourth child to relax.

Wu Fuyi deliberately inquired about Kangxi's thoughts on succession to the throne, did he change his mind?

This is a wave of rainbow farts, "Thanks to Khan Ama's care, I am afraid that the children's lives will be delayed. Khan Ama is my most solid backer, and you can arrange everything very well."

This is not all nonsense.

Hong Hui was 17 years old when he returned to Beijing last year.It may be due to various reasons such as filial piety that the children of the rich and powerful at this age did not get married, but there are very few people who are not engaged.

The marriage to Honghui was decided the year before last, which shows that Kangxi has always put this grandson in his heart.

Last year, Kangxi personally held the wedding ceremony for Honghui.

Many princes don't have this kind of treatment, let alone the only one among the emperor's grandchildren.

Although it can be explained by the fact that the fourth child is not in the capital as a father, and that he loves his grandson as a grandfather, it also shows that the emperor treats Honghui differently.

It can be seen from this that the emperor may not have the idea of ​​establishing an emperor's grandson.

In case the fourth child dies outside, this assumption is cruel for a father, but for an emperor, the worst must be considered.So which way to go to re-elect the heir?The answer may lie in Honghui.

Wu Fuyi was very grateful to Kangxi, it was really nice to have Honghui get married last year.

In the mansion, Honghui's daughter-in-law and Hongyi's daughter-in-law who are advanced have the opportunity to get in touch and learn about each other's style of doing things, which is helpful for the friendly relationship between the two families.Sifujin and Li Shi can also give advice and help from the sidelines.

Suppose the marriage is delayed, and the status of the fourth child changes, and the living environment of the younger generation is moved from the mansion to the palace, and then they get to know each other better, then the effect will be completely different.

Just for this point, Wu Fuyi couldn't be more sincerely grateful to Kangxi for worrying about a bunch of family matters.

At the moment, Kangxi was delighted to hear his son's praise, but he remained vigilant.

As long as he is in power for one day, he will give the fourth brother the confidence that he will not be afraid of accidents when he goes out.This kind of trust is very good, but why throw all the hard work to him?

He didn't want to talk too much with the fourth child, because he was afraid that he would let the fourth child out again if his heart softened.

Absolutely not.For the first time, the fourth child went south for inspection; for the second time, the fourth child went to Europa.If there is a third time, I am afraid that I will fly to the sky.

Kangxi chased them away directly, "Thank you, you also know that you, Ama, are incompetent. Go and go, go back to the house and stay, and spend these two months with me to accompany the children."

Wu Fuyi was sure that the emperor really didn't want to let anyone speak, but she had already grasped the key point keenly.It is the first month now, and there is an important festival in two months.

March [-]th is Kangxi's birthday.Last year, we held a banquet for thousands of seniors in Changchun Garden. This year, we planned to hold a birthday banquet in a simple way. Could there be any special arrangement?

After returning home.

Wu Fuyi started the mode of serving salted fish by order, and conveyed the emperor's attitude to Yinzhen.

Yinzhen is re-adapting to life in the mansion.

Having seen the excitement, freedom and danger of the outside world, and returning to the flat atmosphere of Siye's Mansion, I still feel a little uncomfortable at first.

Just thinking about adjusting his emotions, he was startled by the conjecture that Kangxi might decide to make trouble.

At the Emperor's birthday banquet this year, shouldn't he be announcing the decision that will blind people's eyes and deafen people's ears?

No way?Kangxi will not announce his abdication so soon, will he?

Yinzhen suddenly felt that there was not enough time.

Among other things, he didn't prepare all the matters for the big move, and the most important thing was the secret cabinet.

When he returned to Beijing the day before yesterday, he also drew a picture of an imaginary old ghost in European women's clothing.

Those paintings had to be transferred in secret, and no mistakes could be tolerated.Having said that, moving back to the palace again is not like being free outside the palace. Where will Mrs. Wu live?

On March [-]th, spring is warm and flowers are blooming, and Kangxi's birthday banquet is coming as scheduled.

No matter how much Yin Zhen had wild thoughts, as the prince, Fang Fujin would also attend.

The birthday banquet is lunch.

On this day, the sun is shining brightly and the spring breeze is slightly drunk.

The royal family members, powerful ministers and their relatives who should be present have all come.

The abandoned prince Yinreng, eighth elder brother Yinhu and their family who were originally imprisoned were also allowed to enter the palace to have a feast together.

Push the cup to change the cup, drink three rounds.

Today the shit stirrer Yinzhi kept quiet knowingly, but he can no longer stir up trouble against the wind.In the first month, he was demoted to be the king of the county, and then he was demoted to Baylor.

Everyone thought that the banquet would last peacefully until the end.

Unexpectedly, Kangxi stood up suddenly.

He picked up the wine glass, "I respect you all for this glass. You have all worked hard. Over the years, you have taken care of the Qing Dynasty, and each has your own hard work. I also respect myself, and it is a pious business for the peace of the world and the well-being of the people 53 Year."

hum-

Except for Yinzhen and Wu Fuyi, everyone's heart skipped a beat.

Something is wrong!

Is the emperor drunk?

Kangxi seldom said such things, it should be said that he never boasted and boasted in this manner.

Not only was Kangxi not drunk, but his mind was extremely clear at the moment, and he threw out the thunder that had been prepared for many years in a very relaxed tone.

"I know that you are concerned about the future of the Qing Dynasty, and I also want to choose the best successor. I have to admit that I am old, and my physical strength and spirit are far worse than before.

After years of deliberation, today I have decided to make this announcement.The fourth son of the emperor, Yinzhen, has a noble character, both talents and virtues, and he deeply respects me.I have decided on the seat of Zen. From tomorrow, Yinzhen will succeed me as the new king. You must do your best to assist me. "

As soon as these words came out, the audience fell silent.

As if the pause button was pressed suddenly, almost everyone was stunned by five thunderbolts.Were they all drunk together?Otherwise, how could there be auditory hallucinations?

At this moment, looking at Kangxi, he looked at the fourth child as if sleepwalking.

Changchun Garden seemed to be suddenly darkened, and the demons and goblins laughed loudly:

"Everyone is stupid, right? Let you fight, fight, it's all in vain.

The first abdication of the Qing Dynasty, it is here!Didn't expect that?The Kangxi Zen seat is given to the fourth child!The Kangxi Zen seat is given to the fourth child!The Kangxi Zen seat is given to the fourth child!Ha ha ha ha……"
