Kangxi did not oppose the Eight Banners Reform. Was he deliberately testing himself? Or was he feeling the disadvantages of the Eight Banners system and he was indeed interested in innovation? Yinzhen originally wanted to use this to test Kangxi's condition, so he would not be willing to do so easily. He immediately tentatively said: "My son respects the order, but the Eight Banners system is too involved. Can the Emperor give some advice?"

Kangxi really didn't want to worry anymore. Although he had seen hope for recovery, he knew very well that the time required for recovery would not be short. Now that the court has no major problems, the Fourteenth Old Man has been at ease in handling the court affairs. He can't let him be too idle. If he is idle, he will have trouble. If he can make a system that is more superior than the Eight Banners system or more suitable for the current national conditions of the Qing Dynasty, he will naturally be happy to see it. After all, the Eight Banners system is too obvious.

After glanced at Yinzhen, Kangxi slowly spoke: "The Eight Banners system is the foundation of the Qing Dynasty. It can move the whole body with one stroke. It must be very cautious. If you talk about success, you should first recommend Confucianism, but Confucianism is not conducive to development. You are committed to pioneering and enterprising, and you will not follow the old ways. There has been no unchanging method since ancient times. When you go back and think about it and understand the military system of all dynasties. Even if you make bold suggestions, you don't need to worry. I - I am very much looking forward to you."

After hearing Kangxi's words, Yinzhen was surprised and happy. Kangxi clearly expressed his intention to innovate. However, he had high requirements for the new law, which was not only conducive to preservation and development. This was not a false statement. He quickly kowtowed and said, "My sons must learn from the strengths of a hundred schools of thought and do their best to draw up a system that is in line with the national conditions of the Qing Dynasty, suitable for development to the outside world, and is conducive to domestic defense for reference by Emperor Ama."

Kangxi nodded slightly. Since Lao Sisi said that, he thought he had already had a specific idea in his heart, but at this time, he didn't want to ask more questions. He nodded slightly and then silently.

Seeing that Kangxi was silent, Yinzhen knew that this was the prelude to his routine call Kowtiao An. Through Kangxi's attitude towards the reform of the Eight Banners system, Yinzhen boldly judged that Kangxi's condition had already turned around, otherwise Kangxi would strive to be stable and would not have the intention to make any innovations. Moreover, it was the reform of the Eight Banners system.

After pondering for a moment, Yinzhen said, "Report to Emperor Ama. The Beiyang Fleet is on an expedition to America. The time is scheduled for early June. This is the first expedition of the Qing Navy. I beg you to go to Manila to hold a ceremony for the Beiyang Fleet. I hope Emperor Ama will allow you to make an approval."

Lao Si was going to Manila to send the Beiyang Fleet to the expedition? What did he mean? Kangxi had to cheer up. Lao Si was testing himself? Or did he want to go to Manila to inspire morale? It is reasonable for the naval expedition and held a grand expedition ceremony. But Lao Si proposed to leave Beijing at this time, so he was not worried about changes in the capital. He was so relieved that Lao Ba was not worried about his condition changing? Or, Lao Si had already seen that his condition had improved. Then he would not let him leave Beijing.

After pondering for a moment, Kangxi said, "It took nearly two months to travel back and forth in the South China Sea. My condition has not stabilized. You must deal with all the government affairs in the North Korea. The South China Sea fleet has already conquered the Wazi Kingdom in the east. The military situation has changed rapidly. The center will not leave for a day. How can you travel far? The expedition ceremony will be condemned to the people." After a slight pause, he said, "I will condemn Prince Yu Baotai to Manila."

Yinzhen couldn't help but feel disappointed. He was preparing to send the Beiyang fleet to the north after the war, and then go north to Edo to check it out. Now it was completely ruined. I don't know what Kangxi was worried about. He had to bow and say, "My son is honoring the order."

Kangxi nodded and said, "I am exhausted today, so let's kneel down."

After watching Yinzhen be discharged from the hospital, Kangxi ordered: "Call Zhou and Luo, the two imperial physicians, come here."

Two imperial physicians were waiting in the nearby side room. When they heard Kangxi summoned him, they rushed over and waited for the two of them to bow to him. Kangxi said, "I heard that it is beneficial to the recovery of hemiplegia because of the frequent soaking in hot springs. Can you tell me?"

After hearing Kangxi's words, Zhou and Luo couldn't help but complain secretly that hot springs have certain effects on wind disease, but not for everyone. There are also examples of strokes caused by soaking in hot springs. In Kangxi's case, how could they dare to make a promise to soak in hot springs? If it's better, it's better to lose their heads. It's absolutely impossible to say that they don't know, but they don't say anything, but they are even more depressed. The two of them immediately sweated coldly, but they can't say that they don't say anything.

After a moment of pondering, the Tai Doctor Zhou said cautiously: "Return to the emperor, the hot springs were recuperating, which started in the Qin and Han Dynasties and flourished in the Tang Dynasty. Emperor Taizong of Tang was worried and exhausted in his later years, and the wind was paralyzed. He also tried to use hot springs to treat wind diseases, but eventually he accidentally ate elixir and collapsed. The ministers and others dared not speak out, and hoped that the emperor would forgive him for his crimes."

Kangxi nodded slightly. Imperial doctors have always been cautious. It is always better to have less trouble than to have more trouble. Emperor Taizong of Tang suffered a stroke and used hot springs to treat wind disease and died suddenly. It was a great auspicious. It was normal for them to avoid taboos. From this, it can be seen that what Lao Si Si said is true. It seems that Lao Si was very concerned about his recovery, which made him very pleased.

However, he was still worried about soaking in hot springs in early summer. After pondering for a moment, he asked: "Can there be a seasonal difference in soaking in hot springs?"

Doctor Luo hurriedly replied: "Return to the emperor, you can do it all seasons. Take a bath in spring, raise the yang and get rid of it, take a spring in summer, and remove the heat from the summer, soak the spring in autumn, moisten the lungs and intestines, wash the pond in winter, and burn the dantian in warmth."

Seeing that Kangxi was quite moved, Doctor Zhou hurriedly reserved a way out and said in a deep voice: "Report to the emperor, the emperor can be said to have recovered well now, but it is not appropriate to cause trouble."

Kangxi nodded. He knew that these imperial physicians were all afraid of taking some responsibility. He was anxious now and hoped that they could recover as soon as possible. It was beneficial and he had to try it. Another thing is that Xiaotangshan Hot Spring is only fifty miles away from Beijing, which does not affect the actions of surveillance in the capital. Instead, it can prevent the 14th day from coming to pay tribute. He pondered a little, and then said: "I will pass the order and move to Xiaotangshan Palace tomorrow."

Although he could not go south to Manila to hold a ceremony for the naval expedition to the Americas and did not have the opportunity to go to Edo to ravage the Tokugawa shogunate, Yinzhen was in a good mood all the way. Kangxi's condition was stable and showed signs of improvement, which was perfect for him for the entire Qing Dynasty.

After leaving Changchun Garden, Yinzhen did not rush back to Yuqing Palace, but went straight to Prince Yu's mansion. Time was urgent, and he had to issue an order as soon as possible to urge Prince Yu Baotai to set off early tomorrow morning to avoid delaying the expedition.

Prince Yu's mansion is located on the north of the middle road between two Taiji Factory in Dongcheng District. It is not far from the eighth prince's mansion. Baotai has no responsibilities and Kangxi is seriously ill, so he dare not go out to wander. For the past two months, he has been playing with birds and yelling at the maids. The eunuch Wang Xi came to report to Prince Yinzhen. He was slightly stunned. He couldn't help but be happy and asked repeatedly: "Did the prince come from Changchun Garden?"

"The master is like a god. After careful investigation, the prince did come from Changchun Garden." Wang Xi hurriedly flattered.

Baotai was overjoyed when he heard this. It must be because of the emperor's will, so he immediately ordered: "Order people to open the middle door and welcome the crown prince."

Yinzhen fell into a sedan chair in front of Prince Yu's mansion. As soon as he got off the sedan chair, Baotai brought a group of people to greet him. After the greeting, Yinzhen smiled and said, "Why should I be so polite to my third brother?"

"The crown prince is here, how dare Baotai be negligent?" Baotai said with a smile: "Is the crown prince here by order?"

Yinzhen nodded and said, "The third brother knows the details and does have an order, but the eunuch who passes the order should not arrive later."

When he heard this, Baotai couldn't help but be overjoyed. It seemed to be a serious errand. He hurriedly bowed to invite Yinzhen into the mansion. The two of them entered the hall to sit down. Yinzhen smiled and said, "The third brother is dumbfounded in the capital. The emperor condemns you to go to Nanyang to relax."

Going to Nanyang? Baotai couldn't help but condemn him to go to Nanyang for no reason. After thinking about it for a moment, he asked, "What's going on with the Navy?"

Yinzhen nodded and said, "Go to Manila to preside over the naval expedition ceremony."

This is a good job. Baotai couldn't help but be happy when he heard this, and immediately asked in a deep voice: "What are the instructions of the prince?"

"The time is relatively tight. When you are expeditioning to the Americas, you must set out in early June. You cannot delay the time of the expedition because of the ritual." Yinzhen said in a deep voice: "You will have to leave Beijing tomorrow, and you will be on the boat in Tianjin the next day and head directly to Manila. There is no hurry to return. There is more than storms in the South China Sea in June."

Baotai was delighted when he heard this. The Fourteenth brother was really nice and he even found a reason. He hurriedly asked, "Is it the naval warship that sent me south?"

Yinzhen smiled and said, "Safety is paramount. Third brother will take my 'Nanhai No. 1' south and go south. He will arrive in Manila in late May." He paused slightly and continued, "Instruct Yande and Delga to be cautious in everything and not to make a rash move. Keeping the Port of Acapulco is the top priority. We must try our best to play the role of Governor Mairu of Luzon."

"Baotai must tell the truth." Baotai hurriedly bowed.

As soon as he returned to Yuqing Palace, Yinzhen called Fang Bao. Since Kangxi had the idea of ​​innovating the Eight Banners system, he had to seize this opportunity. As long as Kangxi could start or make a little change, he could reform it legitimately after he ascended the throne. This was a rare opportunity.

Just as he was thinking about which aspect to start, Kangxi was more likely to accept it. On the autumnal equinox, Xiangqiao and two girls walked in with a smile on their faces. As soon as the girls came in, they squatted to pay their respects.

Seeing Hairuo smiling, Yinzhen stood up and smiled and said, "Is there good news today?" He said as he reached out to give up his seat.

After Hai Ruo sat down with a smile, he said, "Congratulations to the prince, the imperial physician took the pulse for Sister Jianing just now, it was a happy pulse."

Jianing has it! Yinzhen reacted and couldn't help but be overjoyed. Over the past few years, he had been worried that he might not have children in his life. Unexpectedly, he became the crown prince and actually made Jianing pregnant. Now he finally got a heart attack. Even if Kangxi lived for another ten years or eight years, at least he didn't have to worry about someone making a fuss about this.

"There is still a happy event." Hai Ruo glanced at him with beautiful eyes, and then said, "Miss Mengjiao has returned to the palace."

Zhang Mengjiao returned to Beijing. Yinzhen had already received the news earlier. She was not surprised. He nodded and then smiled and said, "I've gathered all the happy events today. I'll lend you your place to congratulate them in the evening."

"This is natural." Hairuo smiled and said, "I'm here to report to the prince in advance."

"Okay, I'll take a break early today." Yinzhen said, and reminded him again: "Zhang Mengjiao is from a small family, and her court etiquette is what she lacks the most. Please teach her more if you find time."

"I respect the Crown Prince Jun's Order." Hairuo smiled with his lips pursed.

Bao Fuquan leaned out of the door and said, "Crown Prince, Fang Zanshan has arrived."

Hai Ruokuan stood up and said, "If you don't disturb the prince's official duties, I will leave first."

Outside the door, Fang Bao was wearing a sixth-rank official robe and stood solemnly. In order to facilitate his entry and exit from Yuqing Palace, Yinzhen had already added him a position of Zuo Zanshan for the Zhan Shi Mansion. Although he was inconspicuous in the capital, he was promoted to the sixth-rank official as soon as he was awarded an official position, but he was much higher than the serious first-class Jinshi who entered the Hanlin. Fang Bao was content. With his official position, he was still worried about being promoted slowly with the prince?

Fang Bao was thinking about what Yinzhen was looking for him in his heart. When he suddenly saw Yinzhen sending Hairuo out, he was slightly stunned. He realized that this was the Crown Princess, so he immediately knelt down on the spot. Yinzhen smiled and said, "I won't pay my respects to the Crown Princess."

When he heard that it was indeed the Crown Princess, Fang Bao hurriedly worshiped and said, "My minister Fang Bao, please pay tribute to the Crown Prince and Crown Princess."

"Are you Fang Bao?" Hai Ruo looked at him with great interest. He had heard that Fang Bao was ugly, but he was extremely talented and highly valued by Yinzhen. As a woman, Hai Ruo also had a very strong sense of gossip.

After hearing Hai Ruo's question, Fang Bao hurriedly replied: "It's the Wei minister."

Fang Bao was kneeling and did not dare to look at the Crown Princess, so he kept crawling on the ground. Hairuo could not see his appearance, but he couldn't ask him to raise his head. He couldn't help but hesitate and looked back at Yinzhen. Seeing that Yinzhen was just smiling faintly, but he didn't say anything, he turned around and left.

How could Yinzhen have no idea about Hai Ruo? However, Fang Bao will be of great use in the future. He doesn't want to leave a bad impression on Fang Bao. After Hai Ruo left, he smiled and said, "Get up."

Fang Bao knew his appearance, and when he changed his mind, he could guess that when he saw Yinzhen protecting him in such a way, he felt aroused in his heart, but he pretended not to know, and got up and followed him into the hall.

When he sat down, Yinzhen said, "Today, when you see him, the emperor was quite moved when talking about the reform of the Eight Banners system, he asked to draw up a specific charter. Which aspect do you think is the easiest way to get the emperor to accept it?"

The prince wants to carry out the Eight Banners system reform? Fang Bao was shocked when he heard this. The Eight Banners system was the foundation of the Qing Dynasty and the fundamental interests of the Manchus. It can be said that it can affect the whole body. One bad thing is that it offends all the royal nobles. Innovating the Eight Banners system with the identity of the Prince is not an ordinary risk.

Kangxi was quite moved? Is he trying to put the prince in danger, or really want to innovate? Fang Bao immediately frowned. Why did the prince take such a dangerous move? Could it be that the emperor's condition has changed? After a little thought, the prince's meaning seems to be only preparing to change one aspect, and it is the aspect that Kangxi is most interested in. It seems that the prince also knows that the matter is difficult. (To be continued)
