Chapter 77
Suspicion, suspicion, surprise, contempt...
Such eyes fell on Wei Tong, but Wei Tong didn't feel anything.Why did Kangxi call him here today? Although he had doubts in his heart, he was not worried at all, and he would not be harmed after all.
"Feng Zhi, you have discussed with me about the homesickness of the soldiers in the army before. I have already discussed with several adults. They wanted to discuss with you directly, so I called you here." Kangxi said gently. Wei Tong explained that Wei Tong didn't know what it was for.He cupped his hands and said, "The humble job knows."
"Wei Tong, although this matter looks good, how can you guarantee that there will be no mistakes in the whole process?" As soon as Kangxi's voice fell, Suo'etu asked. He had just been punished by the emperor some time ago. However, I didn't expect it to be this Wei Tong again today.
Wei Tong said: "My lord, this matter was originally intended to ease the soldiers' homesickness. For example, soldiers close to the interior can naturally ask others when they are resting, but soldiers in the northern part of the frontier cannot see each other for ten years. Therefore, This kind of idea came up. Wei’s itself is a rice shop all over the place, and there are other shops. If the situation permits, a special person will write letters for the soldiers and pick them out from the collection. Every time the food is transported, it can be dispersed with the convoys from various places, which can also save a lot of manpower and material resources." Although Wei Tong did not answer Suo'etu's question directly, he basically expressed his thoughts in his words.
Some people murmured, some pondered, and some asked: "Wei Tong, the Wei family was originally appointed by the emperor to take charge of you, but now the people have never known about it, let alone the royal reputation, so what's the reason for this matter? "
"It is the law of the imperial court that officials do not compete with the people for profit, and humble officials are not officials at the beginning, so there is nothing wrong with it. The market has its own flow rules, and what the imperial court should do is to stand in the supervision Take a responsible position, suppress high prices, support low prices, stabilize prices, and convince the public. Therefore, the Wei family is an official, and it is not necessary for people to know about this matter.”
"Hmph, I think you're just trying to win the hearts of the people." Hubu Shangshu Esang'a said sarcastically. He didn't like Wei Tong from the very beginning. He was reprimanded by the court for his wolf ambition many times. Even now, his thoughts have not changed. .
"This is my opinion, what's wrong?" Just when Wei Tong was about to answer, Kangxi snorted coldly, making no secret of his advocacy for Wei Tong.
"I don't dare to wait." Kangxi was furious, and naturally no one dared to say anything, and they all bowed and confessed.
He stood up, and no one dared to make any moves under the oppressive momentum.Kangxi looked at the crowd with sharp eyes, and said in a condensed tone, "I want you to come here to discuss important matters. If it's just to mess around, then go back to me!"
Intimidated by Kangxi's words, there were no more remarks against the Wei family, and they honestly focused on the matter of the military letter.
"Since this is the case, how can we ensure that the secrets in the military will not be leaked out? Although Wei Wei has good intentions, if something happens, it will be very wrong."
"That's why I appointed a special person to be responsible for writing the letter, and naturally avoided these risks when writing the letter. The person who wrote the letter was trained by the court, and the issue of loyalty has been considered."
"Loyalty? Can you guarantee that a person will always be loyal?"
"Then how does the lord ensure his loyalty?"
"you!!!!"
"How about the delivery team? Junxin is different in the first place. If we only rely on the so-called Mipu team, how can we guarantee safety?"
"Each convoy of Wei's Mipu has at least three first-class masters guarding it, and there are twenty or thirty other accompanying guards. As long as the route is not detected intentionally, even bandits are fine." Yan Yan The implication is naturally clear.
In just half an hour, Wei Tong argued with the people present many times, and except for the intervention just now, Kangxi never spoke again, just watched the situation off the court with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and waited until Wei Tong refuted him to the point of no return. When he had something to say, he said slowly, "Then, do you have any objections?"
"I have no objection." The first person to speak was Zhe Erken, Minister of the Ministry of War. Although he has not been in office for a long time, he is the person in charge of the military in name. .Zorken was originally one of the people who criticized Wei Tong, but it was just a matter of fact. He did see the benefits in this matter. If so, he had no reason to stop it.
"The minister waits for a second opinion." The rest of the words one after another have already indicated that this matter has been settled in this way.
"This matter is settled like this. For the follow-up matters, Wei Tong will contact the Ministry of War, and the Ministry of Accounts will transfer the money. We will discuss the rest of the matter later. Except for Wei Tong, everyone should step back."
"Abiding by the order—"
Zheerken and Mingzhu were the last to leave. Behind him, the moment the door was slowly closed, they heard Kangxi's gentle voice, "I'm tired from standing for a long time, why don't you sit down quickly." So considerate With a gentle appearance, it seems that he is not the emperor they are familiar with.
With a "click", the door closed.The two looked at each other, feeling heavy in their hearts, they seemed to have made a wrong move before, the emperor attached so much importance to Wei Tong, no matter what, they shouldn't make a move at this time.
After the person left, Wei Tong looked at Kangxi helplessly, "You could have told me first, I came here without knowing anything, and I didn't know how many people I offended when I spoke fiercely." Kangxi asked people to sit down. Next, he laughed straight, "If I had told you in advance, I wouldn't have seen Feng Zhi showing his sharpness today."
"People always have their own thoughts. If they can't convince all these important court officials, they will encounter difficulties even in the implementation." What's more, even if they are persuaded on the surface, who knows what is going on in their hearts? Thought.Wei Tong's worries were also known to Kangxi, he said softly: "This is the case in the world, even if they don't allow it, so what. Anyone who sees the benefits wants to intervene. I will not give them such a chance."
Wei Tong was startled by the cruelty in Kangxi's words, but the next moment he felt that it should be taken for granted.Kangxi was never a person who killed indiscriminately, nor was he a cruel tyrant, so what can be said about the deterrence of an emperor?From the first time he knew Kangxi, he was already such a person.
Kangxi noticed Wei Tong's intentional reaction, his eyes flickered twice following his movements, and his tone became softer again, "Are you afraid of me?" Hearing these three words suddenly, Wei Tong couldn't help but Then he was a little surprised, and when he noticed the waves hidden under Kangxi's soft words, he couldn't help but laugh.He didn't answer Kangxi's words, but said, "Xuan Ye, at the very beginning, you said that you let me out of the palace and told me not to show up again. In fact, you have already planned it at all." Words... had been conceived from the beginning.
"Of course." Kangxi chuckled lightly, and whispered in Wei Tong's ear, the laughter slipped into Wei Tong's ear, rolling gently.
Wei Tong himself doesn't know how to describe his thoughts, as a person who has never been in love with a man, it is his limit to be able to admit that he likes Kangxi so much.When every move of Kangxi was gently pushing him to take another step forward, there seemed to be something whispering in his ear: don't worry.And he can only be thankful that the previous consciousness has been tightly pulling his reason, tensing every loose nerve.
He knew what kind of answer Kangxi wanted, but...
"I was never afraid of you."
But in the end Wei Tong could only give such a response.He deeply remembered the history, the crown prince, Yongzheng, the nine sons seizing the throne, and the situation in the harem... He was telling him the history of a generation of emperors, warning him not to take this step.When you are really in a vortex, how can you have any time to worry about whether you are indecisive or not.
Kangxi watched Wei Tong's shaking every minute and every inch, and watched him finally block everything and turn into that calm and self-sufficient Fengzhi.
This is Wei Tong. After he sighed in a low voice, he patted Wei Tong on the shoulder and stood up, "The matter on the surface has passed, and the matter of the military letter has also been settled. I remember that Chen Su is about to enter Beijing. Don’t take care of everything by yourself, and if something really happens, please tell me.” Junxin’s matter was just an experiment, and any problems encountered in the experiment are possible, and Kangxi didn’t want Wei Tong Take it all.
The pressure left suddenly, Wei Tong was still a little dazed, and subconsciously replied: "I know." Kangxi Japan today is to create momentum for Wei Tong, let people know Wei Tong's own ability, and let people see the emperor's favor.Going around in such a big circle is to make it easier for Wei Tong to gain a foothold in the court in the future.Wei Tong has no power and power, if he follows the previous route, he doesn't know how many schemes he will encounter.
After Wei Tong left, Kangxi looked at the golden glow of the setting sun with his hands behind his back, but he kept thinking about Wei Tong's seldom at a loss just now.After a long time, he let out a low laugh. The wanton joy in the laughter made Liang Jiugong suspicious, but he didn't dare to make a sound at all.
Fengzhi, oh Fengzhi, even though he refused in every possible way, such wavering made Kangxi even more unable to move his eyes away.It has been more than ten years, and Kangxi, who is not so patient even in the face of Obai, has been waiting for more than ten years.When you see the dawn, how can you not be happy and happy?
