Chapter 464

Kangxi woke up from a stroke and replaced the candidate for the Nine Gate Admiral. He fell into a coma again. The ministers in the study went to Changchun Garden together. The news that the princes also went to Changchun Garden to visit him was immediately spread among the royal family members and nobles in the capital. How could everyone be frightened when they heard about this change? What does this news mean? The capital is likely to be a battle for the throne soon!

All relatives and nobles of the royal family and nobles will face another side, especially the officials of the Eighth Master Party and the princes and ministers. With Orondai as the admiral of the Nine Gate, the chances of the Eighth Prince's victory will be infinitely expanded. Whether to support the Eighth Prince or the Fourteenth Prince is a very painful choice for them.

The most anxious thing was the officials of the Ministry of Rites. The Minister of Rites Manchu and Han, Val, and Li Yuanlong, couldn't help but complain when they heard the news. They immediately mobilized all the officials to arrange for the elders who came to Beijing to celebrate their birthdays to leave Beijing. No one knew whether the capital would immediately fall into great panic and chaos. If these elders were affected, the celebration of the longevity and the banquet of the thousand-year-olds would become a huge joke, and all officials of the Ministry of Rites would become scapegoats.

In Changchun Garden, in the side hall of Qingxi Bookstore, all the ministers in the upper study room, the ministers in charge of the inner court, and the ministers in the inner court were gathered together, but no one spoke. They visited Kangxi's situation from afar. Faced with this sudden change, everyone was indifferent and didn't know how to deal with it.

In the end, Li Guangdi broke the silence. He coughed lightly before saying slowly: "The birthday celebration has not yet ended. There are still a large number of elders, gentry and emperors from all over the world in the capital. Once the news of the emperor's critically ill will be panic, and even riots will be caused. I am afraid that it is impossible to hide it from those who are interested, so it is better to release the news. The emperor's dragon body is not safe, so he will make everyone return home and pray for the emperor. What do you think?"

"Li Zhongtang said this very much. At present, the first priority is to stabilize people's hearts and avoid panic, causing major changes." Wang Xu quickly took over the conversation and said, "I have served as the Minister of Rites and are familiar with the affairs of the ministry. I am fully responsible for this matter."

"Old fox." Ma Qi couldn't help but curse inwardly. In this way, he could easily avoid the problems that followed, but Wang Fei did serve as the Minister of Rites. He was indeed the most ideal thing to be in charge of this matter.

Everyone didn't care about this matter at all. Kangxi was like this, and there was no need to continue the celebration of the birthday celebration. Moreover, sending these elders and gentry out of the capital would also help the stability of the capital. Therefore, everyone nodded in agreement.

Li Guangdi completed the task of throwing bricks and attracting jade, and stopped saying a word. Zhang Pengheng glanced at everyone and said, "The emperor is seriously ill. The most important thing at present is to maintain the stability of the capital. The new Nine Gate Admiral Orondai is arrogant, stubborn, and unfilial. He is in charge of the public security of the capital alone, which is quite worrying. Whether all the Eight Banners stationed in Beijing will be transferred to the capital, especially to strengthen the number of troops stationed in the inner city."

When everyone heard this, they were stunned. Orondee belonged to the Eighth Prince and Zhang Penghong was the banner of the 14th Party. Now, what the princes are doing now are still unknown. Zhang Penghong actually openly proposed to increase the inner city garrison to check and balance the infantry commander's yamen, and his words were so explicit. Does this mean that the 14th Party and the Eighth Party will completely break? Zhang Penghong saw that he was very gentle on weekdays, but he did not expect that once he touched the core interests of the 14th Party, he would react so fiercely.

Although I don’t know what the Eighth Prince thought, Zhang Penghui slandered Oroqdai, Ma Qi, and Xiao Yongzao were naturally unhappy. Ma Qi pondered for a moment and said, “Oroqdai was the emperor’s will. Zhang Zhongtang said this, but he accused the emperor of improper employment of people?”

Zhang Penghong said without any permission: "Oroneday's arrogant, stubborn, arrogant, and filial piety is the emperor's evaluation of him. Hasn't Ma Zhongtang carefully read the emperor's imperial edict?"

"As the saying goes, this moment, that moment." Xiao Yongzao took it over, "How can he not hear the shame and be brave before he hears it, and he will correct it when he hears it? How can he remain unchanged when he sees things?"

"The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change." Zhang Penghong said with a calm expression: "Everyone, even the imperial physician dare not make a slight judgment on the emperor's condition. Once the coma is too long, there may be changes in the elbows and armpits. In my opinion, the current major events are only stable. Can you agree with this?"

Everyone asked this question, who dared to say that maintaining stability is wrong? Song Zhu, Wang Xuan, Fu Ning'an, and Wenda are all unreliable and do not form gangs and affiliated with the prince. Seeing that it was obvious that the Eighth and Fourteenth parties were already fighting each other, no one was willing to speak too much, and they all responded silently.

The Minister of the Inner Guards, Furdan looked at several ministers in the study room, and then looked at several ministers in the Inner Guards. The Minister of the Inner Guards glanced at them and said slowly: "The emperor has an order when he is awake, so he must be careful. Since it is strictly forbidden, there must be soldiers. I agree to mobilize all the Eight Banners soldiers stationed in Beijing outside the city to enter the inner city to cooperate in defense, especially Changchun Garden and the Imperial Palace."

This matter involves the Eighth Master Party and the Fourteenth Party, and no one is willing to say anything. Zhang Penghong smiled and said, "The safety of the emperor is the first priority. Strengthening the guards in Changchun Garden and the Palace is both imperative and also acting according to the order. This matter is the responsibility of your ministers in charge of the guards, and you can mobilize them at your own discretion."

Ma Qi couldn't help but curse in his heart, it's good that they didn't even have the right to object.

Li Guangdi did not want them to get too entangled on this issue and changed the topic: "The emperor has not been able to manage politics these days, and I hope you will work hard to share the worries for the emperor."

"Report to all the princes, the princes are going to visit the emperor. The young men dare not make decisions in private, so please ask the elders to give me some advice." A military academy asked for instructions outside.

Yaerjiang A smiled bitterly and said, "How to deal with this matter?"

Everyone here knew in their hearts that if Kangxi was unconscious for several days, the Xinyi Theory's battle for the throne would be staged immediately, allowing the princes to visit him. The risk was too great, and they were not allowed to visit him, and they were afraid that they would take the opportunity to cause trouble. This matter was indeed difficult to deal with. Several ministers in the commander's guards were a little undecided, and the ministers in the study also remained silent.

Li Guangdi sighed lightly before saying, "Call you to come, mainly to discuss this matter. First, to ensure the safety of the emperor, second, to maintain the stability of the capital, and then to prevent the princes from moving as much as possible.

How to prevent it? I think that only by not leaking the emperor's condition can it be effectively prevented. Therefore, Changchun Garden must be strictly controlled, both inside and outside must be strictly controlled, and no slightest noise can be leaked.

I suggest that Song Zhu and Fu Ning'an two central halls be stationed in Changchun Garden, and no one else is allowed to visit. Do you have any objections?”

Furdan nodded and said, "This is in line with the emperor's strict will."

Ma Qi said, "If there is something you can't bear to say, what should you do?"

Li Guangdi said lightly: "If there is a will, you will be subject to the will. If there is no will, you can only leave it to heaven and destiny."
