The Long River 天下长河 Episode 18

The eldest son of the emperor Yinyi used the technique of disgusting victory, which caused the little prince to suddenly become seriously ill. Kangxi still didn't know the truth, but was worried about it and stayed by his side all day. Fortunately, the little prince was lucky enough to turn the crisis into safety. Mingzhu reprimanded his younger sister Huifei for covering up Yinfei's misdeeds. If anyone found out, it would be a serious crime for the Fulian family.

Concubine Hui didn't take it seriously, and cursed the prince with evil words, and actually wanted Yinyi to replace the prince. The reason why she was so sure was that she felt that Kangxi's attack on Taiwan caused dissatisfaction among the courtiers, and the Eight Banners would definitely overthrow Kangxi and support a new emperor on the throne.

However, Mingzhu feels that Concubine Hui is ambitious and ignorant, and the brothers and sisters quarreled endlessly. How could Yinyi suddenly ask Mingzhu, if Kangxi died unexpectedly, would he protect his family as an uncle. Mingzhu couldn't laugh or cry when she heard the words. He would definitely not respond to such a treacherous promise.

Recently, the Eight Banners filed a complaint against the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, simply begging her to come forward to prevent Kangxi from recovering Taiwan. But Kangxi has made up his mind, and he is bound to win, and he will use Shi Lang, a Han Chinese. Although this person is a surrendered general, his relationship with Zheng Chenggong and his father Zheng Zhilong is really inextricably linked, love-hate intertwined, and won the true biography of the navy. Later, because of the hatred between his father and brother, he decided to join the Qing Dynasty.

The Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang understood Kangxi's grand plans and great achievements, so she did not interfere too much. However, Yingjili was ambitious and always wanted to carve up the land of the Qing Dynasty, so she sent people to negotiate with Kangxi. As long as they ceded the land, they could get Yingjili's protection. Kangxi was furious, it was entirely because the two armies were fighting that they did not kill the envoy, so he saved his dog's life for the time being and told him to go away.

Chen Huang went to the palace to meet Kangxi, explaining that Jin Fu had to arrive at the capital later to deliver the congratulatory gifts. Gao Shiqi privately mentioned to Chen Huang that the emperor would recover Taiwan after the pacification of San Francisco.

Gao Shiqi helped Chen Huang clean up the dust, while Xu Qianxue had been waiting in the mansion for a long time, respectfully adding food and pouring wine, until Gao Shiqi promised to finish things for him, and finally he was relieved. Chen Huang takes Xiaohu for a stroll in the street, and meets Gelong, a Mongolian who connives at his subordinates to disturb the capital and kills Tolerance in public.

The officers and soldiers of the capital could not help but detain Gelong, together with Chen Huang and Xiaohu, and later found out the truth and released them. On the other hand, Kangxi personally promoted Gelong, thinking that he was ordered by Galdan to give congratulatory gifts, at least for the time being, he can't move them, so he suppressed his anger and apologized for rewarding things with a smile. Only when the southeast is calm, can the northwest be conquered.

As the emperor's birthday was approaching, Mingzhu and Suo'etu racked their brains to prepare the congratulatory gifts, but the most grand and the attention of the people in the city was none other than the twenty carts of large boxes delivered by Jin Fu. Although the common people didn't know what was inside, they still talked about it. They all felt that Jin Fu was raking in money in the river, with three million taels of silver a year, which was really enviable and greedy.

Kangxi learned that Jin Fu had entered the palace and was waiting to be summoned, so he went to see him immediately. Gao Shiqi bribed the eunuch to find out what gift Jin Fu gave him. After not seeing each other for more than half a year, Kangxi can clearly see the change in Jin Fu's appearance this time. He will inevitably look rough and old after being exposed to the wind and sun in the river all day.

Looking at Jin Fu's bloody hands, Kangxi's mood was extremely complicated, his eyes were flushed, and the rumors from the outside world were unbelievable. As for Jin Fu, he did not live up to his high hopes. It was a blessing for the Qing Dynasty to have such a good minister. Kangxi heard that Jin Zhiyu was busy dealing with river affairs every day and hadn't gotten married yet, so he decided to reward him with fame and fame, including that the royal family would be responsible for the bride price when he got married in the future.
