Chapter 12 The Twelfth Episode

Just when Obai gathered a group of fellow party members and entered the government to conspire to get rid of Sukesaha and clear the way for further usurpation of power, Emperor Kangxi secretly summoned Wang Jieshu, who was discussing politics.This morning, the eunuch Zhang Wanqiang came to the mansion of Prince Yizheng, saying that he was passing on the decree, but he was not allowed to make a statement, and he was not allowed to arrange incense cases. Here!" After speaking, he left without eating tea. With a rabbit in his arms, Jie Shu rushed to Yuqing Palace, Zhang Wanqiang greeted him with a smile on his face.As soon as he stepped into the gate of the palace, he was stunned. He saw Kangxi sitting on the east side with a sword hanging from his waist, and a man and a woman stood behind him.The male is the new fifth-class imperial guard Wei Dongting; the female holds a ruyi in her hand and has a solemn face. She is Lagu Su Ma.Looking up, I was even more surprised. The person sitting cross-legged on the imperial couch above was the Empress Dowager Boerjite!

Jie Shu kneeled down three times and kowtowed nine times in great reverence and fear, saying: "Your slave, Jie Shu, is hereby ordered to see you!" The Empress Dowager waved her hand and said, "His seventh uncle, please stand up and speak!" Long ago, Zhang Wanqiang moved a low-footed board, and Jie Shu sat on it with a slanted body.In the huge hall, there were only these three people sitting opposite each other, and their voices were buzzing like an urn. Kangxi broke the silence with one word that shocked the world: "Seventh Uncle, Aobai's power and chaos have reached an intolerable level, do you know that?"

Jie Shu raised his head and saw that Kangxi was staring at this side, Lagu Su Ma next to him was staring at him, Wei Dongting was also squinting at him, and hurriedly lowered his head and replied, "I know." The Empress Dowager said: "When Emperor Taizong was here, he often praised you, saying that you have always been loyal. The previous emperor set up this king to discuss politics, just because he was afraid that someone would have bad intentions, and no one would be able to suppress them. Bullying. Just now I heard that Sonny has passed away. Once he died, Oboi became more and more deprived of the law. Kangxi has been in power for more than a year, and he still does not return the power. Who would have expected the current situation!" , the Empress Dowager said in a low tone, "Now the south is still fighting, Taiwan is still in the hands of Zheng Chenggong and his sons, and there is a Raksha country in the north, who also bullies us. In our court, Oboi is like this. Yes, what does it look like!" As he spoke, his eyes flashed, and he stared at Jie Shu.

Kangxi interrupted suddenly and said: "So, I invite you to discuss an important matter. I want to get rid of Oboi and remove his military power!" He stopped abruptly at this point, and stopped talking. Jie Shu pondered for a moment, then suddenly knelt down and began to play: "Oboi is unruly and unruly, everyone in the court knows that he should be severely punished. But now he is in charge of the military department, leading the guards and ministers, and governing the patrolling yamen, besides, most of the guards are his. People, in case something unexpected happens, it will harm the emperor instead, this must be taken into consideration."

"That's why I came to you!" The Empress Dowager took over the conversation, "To be honest, it's not that I don't have a way to kill Oboi, it's just that I care about the old minister and don't want to do it lightly!" Aunt Su Ma, who was standing behind Kangxi, suddenly said to Jieshu: "My lord, what you said just now is a one-sided remark! This pustule is not crowded now, and it will be even more difficult to deal with it in the future! Ao Zhongtang was a meritorious minister in the past. But now he bullies the king with his merits and is lawless. You say that he has real power, everyone knows that, but he makes enemies on all sides, and the hearts of the people in the government and the opposition are devastated. They want to eat their flesh and lay their skins on them! As long as the planning is proper, getting rid of him will be easy. What's more, the master didn't want to make things difficult for him, but just changed his position."

Jieshu knew that if a court lady dared to speak so boldly on such an occasion, she must have been approved by the Empress Dowager and Kangxi in advance. Hearing that she spoke clearly and logically, he admired her very much: "Well, this Lagu Su Ma really lives up to her reputation!" He was pondering, and heard the Empress Dowager say from above: "Uncle Seven, it's true that you are very embarrassed. Our grandparents and grandchildren all know it, but it is imperative, otherwise we will be forced to sing along one day. Those who force the palace, who will be the king?"

When Jie Shu heard it, ah, the empress dowager's words carry weight. This is a fairly obvious hint that after the event is completed, my throne can be "hereditary", which is exactly what he dreamed of.Thinking of this, my heart suddenly felt hot, I kowtowed and said: "What is the reason for removing Oboi, and I also pray that the Empress Dowager and the Emperor will clearly show that the slaves should use all their blunt strength." This is tantamount to agreeing.The atmosphere in the hall immediately relaxed a lot.Kangxi motioned to Wei Dongting to hand over Sukesaha's folder to Jieshu.Jie Shu silently read Zhu Pian word by word, and immediately understood, he hurriedly folded the booklet, kowtowed and said: "The holy scriptures, this slave already understands, I will worship the book and play it within two or three days!"

After paying his respects and returning home, Jie Shu was worried again. The impeachment and removal of Aobai was a matter of great importance, and the errand was easy to deal with but difficult to handle.When he was sitting in a sad city, unable to do anything, a family member came, sent a greeting card, and said respectfully: "My lord, Mr. Ao Zhongtang and Mr. Bumbleshan are here to visit." Jie Shu couldn't help being startled. Come, no, I can't see him now.He looked at the post carefully, then handed it to his family and said, "Return the original post. Tell Ao Zhongtang that I don't feel well, let's meet another day."

Before he could say a word, someone laughed loudly: "My lord is suffering from a serious illness! It is a symptom of eradicating traitors and tyrants, worrying about the country and the people! Hahaha..." As he spoke, Oboi lifted the curtain and walked in.Immediately after, Bumbleshan also came to the front with a smile.They greeted Jieshu and said, "Greetings to Master Qi! I have a little knowledge of medicine, and I would like to use the secret recipe of the golden chamber to cure this disease for the prince!" As they spoke, the two walked to the front of the case, bowed and sat down.

Jie Shu stared at them dumbfounded like a child frightened by thunder, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, and laughed mockingly: "Yesterday morning, I caught the wind and cold, and I am really not feeling well. Doctor, please treat me." Bumbleshan is really good at medicine.He got close to him, closed his eyes and meditated seriously, checked Jieshu's pulse, got up and said with a smile, "I'm showing my ugliness. Qiye's left foot is slippery and floating, and the master's thoughts are in a trance, like sitting in a boat; the left is stagnant and sinking, and his main body is lacking." Weakness, lack of food and drink; stagnation of an inch, the main fear, worry, and dangerous night dreams. According to the pulse, you should have these symptoms. It is all because Qi Ye is too busy with state affairs and worries too much. This disease cannot be cured by medicine. It is advisable to rest in peace, eat lightly, and practice peacefully, and you will heal naturally."

Ao Bai smiled and said: "Yes, yes, yes, this vein is very clear. Without indifference, there is no ambition, and without tranquility, there is no way to go far. The ancient sages and sages can't help it. How wise is the prince, let's talk about it for a few minutes Don't you understand the language?" Jie Shu had to admit that Bumble was right in breaking his pulse, he had all these symptoms.Ever since Oboi made a big disturbance in the court and killed Su Nahai and others, he has often had palpitations and uneasiness. Yesterday he was ordered to do so out of helplessness, and he was turbulent inside. He never closed his eyes all night. With this illness, coupled with Aobai's puns on neither yin nor yang, I couldn't help but feel a shock in my heart: "Oh no, it's gone!" But he forced a smile: "In Aoboi's opinion, how can we be peaceful and indifferent? ?” Aobai didn't answer right away, he went to the table, picked up a tall silver cup, pointed to a jade bottle and asked, "I'm thirsty for wine, what kind of wine is here?" Jie Shu laughed and said, "This is the Sichuan wine that was bestowed by the emperor." Famous wine, Yulou Qing." "Yulouqing? What a name!" Obai poured himself a glass of wine, appraised it, took a sip and said with a smile, "Master Ban, good wine, why don't you have a glass too?" After finishing his drink, he poured it out and handed it to Bumbleshan , Bumble looked up and drank it, and said with a smile: "Good wine, but unfortunately it's too strong." He returned the wine glass to Oboi with both hands. "Bu Lie, how could Yulou fall for this?" Obai casually played with the silver cup and said to Jie Shu: "You ask how to be indifferent and quiet? For example, in the case of Sukesaha, why don't you and I agree with each other?" Trial, the title will be played, the prince can take advantage of this to have a few days of leisure, what do you think?" Seeing Ao Bai go straight in, Jie Shu knew that all plans were in vain, and said with a wry smile: "It seems that Ao Bai has already made up his mind, what kind of trial is he going to do?" Aobai put the silver cup lightly on the desk, and said with a serious face, "Of course I will wait until I have asked before I can settle down——Master Bumbleshan, we are not too young to be sitting, and it is time to go back, let the prince sit alone It's better to think about it." After finishing speaking, before Jie Shu woke up, he took Bumble and walked away.
