MTL - Female Official In the East Palace-Chapter 212
After the imperial driver entered the territory of Shanxi, there was no difference at first, but after entering several large palaces, the people all greeted him, and the voice of greeting to the imperial driver was very warm.
At first, everyone thought it was the actions of local officials, and Kangxi ordered the people not to disturb the people so much.
After the imperial chariot stayed at the Wutai Mountain Palace, the local people sent local specialties every day, and every time the palace officials reported it, they all said that the people of Yizhou Prefecture had no worries about food and clothing, and it all depended on the emperor's benevolence. So very grateful.
Kangxi has taken peace and prosperity as his mission since he was a child. Seeing that the people are well-fed and grateful, he proposed to travel in small clothes and see how the people of Yizhou Prefecture live and work in peace and contentment.
The traveling entourage includes Prince Yinren, the emperor Sun Hongzhao, the fourth prince Yinzhen, the thirteenth prince Yinxiang and the fourteenth prince Yinzhen.
There are also several adults who are traveling with them and some guards dressed in ordinary clothes.
Fortunately, except for a few officials in Yizhou Prefecture, no one has seen Kangxi and others, so most people even if they cast a vague gaze on them, they are just guessing them Identity is not ordinary.
"Is this the most prosperous street in Yizhou?" It was the end of November, and even though Shanxi was not as cold as the capital, when Kangxi spoke, there was still a little white fog coming out of his mouth.
"Reporting to the emperor...Master, this street is the main street of Yizhou Mansion." The official who replied had made a detailed understanding of Yizhou Mansion as early as when the emperor ordered him to go out on patrol. In order to deal with it freely when the emperor asks.
Kangxi casually looked at the shops and vendors on both sides of the road, and said: "Compared to the capital, it is really not prosperous. If one day, all the prefectures and cities can be as prosperous as the capital, it must be the real prosperity."
The pattern of a city may not change for decades. The prince still has memories of that year, and he knows that compared to the depression when the disaster occurred, it is already excellent.
So the prince is very pragmatic, but he said it like flattery: "Huang Ama has benefited the people everywhere, and the prosperity has come."
Kangxi showed his beauty, stopped by a stall selling small toys, picked up a drum, and watched with great interest.
The street vendor said diligently: "This master, the workmanship of my rattle is unique in Yizhou, look at this coloring, listen to this crisp drum sound, and buy it for the young master and lady at home. How many?"
Kangxi turned to the youngest grandchild and asked, "Hongzhao, would you like one? Grandfather bought it for you."
The eldest grandson is very good at coaxing his grandfather, and immediately pointed to the nine-link and other objects on the booth and said, "Grandfather, these grandsons also want them, and grandfather buys them for grandsons."
"Good good, grandfather bought it for you."
The thirteenth elder brother is fifteen years old, and the fourteenth elder brother is also thirteen years old, but the two of them are not expressive on their faces, but their eyes show a little envy unconsciously, and they also envy the eldest grandson of the emperor can be so reckless.
Kangxi was discussing what to buy with the eldest grandson, but he didn't notice their expressions.
The prince looked around, noticed that, after a while, he smiled naturally: "Our brothers are also waiting eagerly, but the father only buys it for Hong Zhao, too favor one over the other, and the son also I want what you bought."
Kangxi was in a good mood. Hearing the prince's words, he smiled and said, "You are already 30 years old, and you are still arguing with your son to be jealous?"
"Why is the son alone?" The prince held the fourth brother's arm and said wrongly, "Ask the fourth brother if he wants it too."
Kangxi followed his words and looked at the fourth brother, "The fourth?"
The muscles of the four elder brothers twitched for a moment, and under the sight of Huang Ama and the prince, he barely evoked an ugly smile, "Yes, my son wants it."
Even the fourth elder brother can open his mouth, the thirteenth elder brother and the fourteenth elder brother looked at each other, no longer embarrassed, and they started to ask.
Kangxi naturally likes his sons to be close, and after laughing, he waved his hand, "If you want, you can choose at will, I ... I will buy it for you."
The vendor was overjoyed and hurriedly introduced it to the big customers more eagerly.
However, these things cannot be compared to the craftsmanship of the craftsmen in the palace.
Is it the flavor that everyone cares about? What they care about is the people who buy these things for them.
The prince took a rattle and shook it in his hand. Seeing that the vendor looked at him and Hongzhao from time to time, he said gently, "But what's the problem?"
"No, no." The vendor quickly waved his hand, "Little one just thinks that you and this young master are very friendly, and it seems that they have met each other at some point."
The prince smiled lightly, "Maybe you remembered it wrong."
After the others were selected, Kangxi ordered someone to pay and asked, "Is there anything else to buy?"
Prince put down his rattle and picked up the Kongming lock nearby. The fourth elder brother followed without expression, also picked up a Kongming lock, and then left the booth.
The attendant paid for the masters, and asked several elders for instructions. Seeing that they did not intend to be kept by others, they retreated to the back.
An official stepped forward and respectfully asked for instructions: "Master, the most famous restaurant in Yizhou Mansion is not far ahead. Would you like to go to dinner?"
Kangxi nodded, "Let's have a taste and lead the way."
"Yes."
The official turned around and waved his hand, and a guard walked forward quickly, and went to the restaurant to order.
And after the group left the booth, the scholar selling calligraphy and painting immediately came over and said enviously, "You have met a rich man today, and the accent sounds like it's from the north, why don't you slaughter more? A sum?"
"How do you know they are from the north?" The vendor looked at the scholar suspiciously, "Although the accent is indeed different from ours..."
The scholar said with a bit of self-satisfaction: "This is your ignorance, right? If I guess correctly, they speak Mandarin, maybe from the capital!"
"The capital?!"
The vendor remembered the appearance of the two, silently counted the time, suddenly startled, touched his bare forehead randomly, tugged at the cloth on both sides of the booth, and put away his things a few times .
The scholar did not know which one he came from, and shouted loudly at the person who had walked away: "Have you closed the stall?"
The vendor ignored him, just rushed forward, ran for a while, saw their group in the distance, quickened their pace, and ran towards them.
Before he got close, the guard raised his arm to stop him.
The vendor was carrying a large cloth bag on his back, and said anxiously: "I can't take your money, I will give you something small."
Everyone looked at each other, Kangxi opened his mouth and asked, "Why can't you take our money?"
"I just can't take it."
Seeing that they didn't want to reveal their identities, the vendor took out a piece of silver they had just given from his pocket, hurriedly stuffed it into the nearest guard's hand, turned around and wanted to run.
The guard who was stuffed with money didn't wait for the master's orders, and subconsciously grabbed him and asked: "What do you mean? If you don't make it clear today, you can't leave!"
The vendor was thin and frail, and was caught by the guards. No matter what, he could not break free. Seeing that they had to find a reason, he gritted his teeth and knelt down: "His Royal Highness! I really can't accept you. money!"
"Brush—"
"Brush—"
As soon as he said "His Royal Highness", the guards drew their swords one after another, and the guard leader asked with a cold face: "Who are you?!"
Kangxi and the rest of the prince, as well as the official guards all looked at the prince, but the prince did not know why he recognized his identity.
The street vendor had never seen this battle, shivered with fright, and explained to himself: "The snow disaster a few years ago, the small, the small family, the old and the young, all survived with the grace of His Royal Highness the Prince. , Before the little father went, he repeatedly told us not to be ungrateful, how could the little one accept the money from the benefactor?"
There are many pedestrians on the street, and they have long been attracted to their attention.
In just a moment, more and more people poured in. Some of them had seen the prince back then. After confirming again and again, they shouted excitedly: "Yes, it is His Royal Highness!"
As many confirmed voices shouted, everyone woke up, all knelt on the ground, kowtowed to the prince and said words of gratitude.
The people are unorganized and their voices are disturbed. The Prince and others can only vaguely judge some words.
However, such a scene is particularly shocking. For a time, a group of people are surrounded by the middle, and they all forget to respond.
The prince did not expect such a scene, but he reacted quickly, and immediately asked Huang Ama to leave first, and instructed the fourth brother and others to take care of Huang Ama.
For Kangxi's safety, he didn't call him "Huang Ama", which was not without fault, but when Kangxi left, his eyes swept across the prince and the people of Yizhou Mansion, his eyes were very complicated.
Kangxi's private visit in micro-service was naturally abolished, and he was temporarily diverted to Yizhou Prefecture.
The prefect of Yizhou today is the successor of the prefect who was revoked due to corruption. Thanks to the prince.
Kangxi was silent.
The anomalies along the way are also explained...
