Qing Dynasty: Pampering The Queen

"It's just a house and a title. Why not do it in exchange for the loyalty of the Eight Banners family? When someone enters the palace, you can go and see it more if you like it. If you don't like it, just keep it. What's the big deal?"

"Look at your harem today. The ministers with a little bit of wealth are all more respectable than you. How can you handle just a few concubines? It will hurt the royal family's face to speak out."

"Besides, there are not many descendants. You only have four sons now, too few!"

Since the fourth master took over the throne, everything he has done can be regarded as frank and confident, and he is not afraid of being questioned at all.

Only about Mu Jin.

Of course, with his current status as the Ninth Five-Year Lord, no one dares to fight him openly, and openly accuses him of doting on the queen. As for the secret complaints of some Eight Banners nobles, he just When not present.

Just ignore it.

But when Lord Kangxi asked, he had to answer.

The fourth master had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "Huang Ama, I already have quite a few sons. I will train them well, and I will definitely not disappoint Huang Ama. Fearful, for fear of failing to live up to Huang Ama's expectations and values, she was completely focused on government affairs, and really didn't want to be distracted by the tedious affairs of the harem, so she simply didn't add new people for the time being. In fact, two people were added, one now Right in the palace, the other one prayed for the late empress at Huangjue Temple and hasn’t come back yet. These two are honest, so don’t worry. From now on, my ministers will slowly choose honest ones.”

"There is nothing wrong with the way it is now. The Eight Banners family's contribution to the Qing Dynasty has never been forgotten, and I dare not forget it. But time has passed, and today is different from the past. Now the Qing Dynasty rules the country for thousands of miles. All the subjects in this world are The people of the Qing Dynasty and my subjects are all the same in my heart. If the Eight Banners family does not make progress, and the descendants only want to eat on the merits of their ancestors, the sons and ministers will not agree, let alone do it for nothing. Get used to them, feed them"

Lord Kangxi looked at him with calm eyes, and said slowly: "Do you want to move the Eight Banners?"

The fourth master acquiesced, and said: "I just feel that some things should be changed."

After a moment of silence, Lord Kangxi sighed softly: "You're right, I thought about this at the beginning. Since entering the customs, the Eight Banners children have been greedy for comfort and pleasure, fighting cocks and horses, and doing nothing. They have long since lost their heroic glory in the past .But, the royal family can’t be ungrateful! This matter should be dealt with slowly, not too hastily.”

The fourth master did not expect that the old man did not object to his idea, but still agreed with him. He was overjoyed immediately, and hurriedly said: "Yes, Huang Ama, don't worry, I understand. This matter is not suitable right now, and I will wait until a The time is right to start again.”

While talking, the father and son discussed the feasibility of this matter, as well as some possible problems and troubles encountered in the implementation process.

Master Kangxi reminisced about the past with a heartbroken heart, and Fourth Master also accompanied him in nostalgia.

Su Peisheng came in lightly to light the lamp.

The fourth master smiled and said: "Huang Ama, it's getting late, why not, Huang Ama have dinner first."

Lord Kangxi really felt a little hungry, but he shook his head and said, "No need, I'm going out of the city right now. You ask someone to prepare some snacks, and I'll just fill it up."
