OBS Chapter 292 Attack of Little 7
Chapter 292 Attack of Little 7
Fifteen, who had the worst self-control, was the first to laugh out loud, and then the princes and others couldn't help laughing either.
This has really stirred up a hornet's nest.
As the crown prince of the country, he has a high status and great prestige. No matter how dissatisfied they are, they dare not easily fire at him. But it is different for the Seventeenth Prince, whose biological mother is just a Han woman and who has no sense of existence.
He was targeted every minute and was accused of tearful things.
There was even an old clan member who, relying on his seniority, dared to grab his arm and ask him what his intentions were. He ridiculed him in court. Did he not recognize the merits of him and his ancestors?
The Seventeenth Prince had never seen such a scene before!
Immediately, his handsome face turned pale.
Fifteen couldn't stand it and kicked the old clan member away: "It was obviously me who laughed first, what's the matter with you bullying Seventeenth Brother?"
[He's a weakling, what else can we do? We are all born of Han women, and our biological mother has been made a concubine, and she is also quite favored. If I mess with you, it means I, my sixteenth brother, and our favored mother will be messed with at the same time, which is much more costly than messing with my seventeenth brother.]
[Hmm. They are blind. The Seventeenth Brother was not prominent during the reign of Emperor Kangxi, but he was quite prominent during the reign of Emperor Yongzheng. In the eighth year of Emperor Yongzheng's reign, after the death of Prince Yixian, the favorite of Emperor Yongzheng, the Three Treasurys of the Ministry of Revenue were managed by this man. In the twelfth year of Emperor Yongzheng's reign, he sent the Dalai Lama back to Tibet to visit the garrisons and Green Camp soldiers in various provinces. Even when Emperor Yongzheng died, he ordered the Seventeenth Brother to assist in the administration.]
[Although my seventeenth brother is not as favored by the previous emperor as in the Legend of Huan, nor does he have the nickname of civet cat. He did not have an affair with his younger sister-in-law and gave his brother a green hat, he is still quite trusted. It's just that after Qianlong's eldest nephew came to power, he disliked every favorite of the previous emperor equally, and he was no exception.]
The Seventeenth Prince was completely stunned by the sudden sound of the incident.
Then I was so angry that my face turned red and my neck became thick. I really wanted to rush over and grab the little guy by the collar and shake him for a while: "You can talk all you want! But the Qing History Draft, the Qing Veritable Records, the Daily Records, those official historical materials are not enough for you? What are you talking about?
And what the hell is going on with him cheating on Fourth Brother?
He is the son of a royal family and the grandson of a phoenix. He can have any beauty he wants. Why would he be entangled with his young sister-in-law?
How could Yinzhen know that he could also have the magical ability to read minds? He only saw that his Seventeenth Brother's face was red and white, and his body was trembling slightly, so he thought he was frightened.
He quickly stepped forward and protected the man behind him: "Don't be afraid, brother Seventeen, I will protect you!"
Seventeenth Prince: ...
It would be better if you stop talking nonsense.
But the real demands cannot be told, and even if you complain, Khan Ama will only side with Xiao Shiba.
He could only grit his teeth, protect the little guy behind him, and then use his words like knives to kill those termites one by one.
Hero?
Ha ha.
Who among those who can stand in the court and talk to the emperor has not made some achievements? Others are not so proud of their achievements, why do you keep jumping up and down?
You were there to clear the national treasury debts and to rectify the Eight Banners. Now that we are discussing the land tax distribution, you jump out again.
It seems that you guys don't do anything to benefit the country and the people, and you only know how to rely on yourself and your ancestors to bully others?
This is simply pointing at a monk and calling him a bald thief, clearly saying that they are parasites of the imperial court!
The crowd was furious, and their hands were trembling as they pointed at the Seventeenth Prince: "You..."
"What have I done? Have I touched your sore spot?" The Seventeenth Prince sneered, and then began to recite the mistakes these people had made, using facts to nail them to the pillar of shame as black sheep.
Seeing this, Yin Xuan sighed in his heart: [Who would believe if he said that he had not been prepared in advance? I said that Brother Seventeen is a capable man and would not fight an unprepared battle...]
Seventeenth Prince: ...
I’m not, I didn’t, please don’t talk nonsense!
Here……
This is because I knew that there would be such a fight recently, so I collected some information in advance. When Khan Ama got angry with them and the brothers reported them, I just followed the sidelines to get some credit.
After all, from the eldest brother to the eighteenth brother, everyone has a title, and he is the only remaining bald prince.
My reputation is not good and I’m short of money!
Who would have thought that he would become a soft persimmon and be taken advantage of in all kinds of ways when the battle had just begun? Xiao Shiba suddenly revealed some big news, which made his brothers and even Khan Ama look at him with some meaningful eyes.
He decided to go all out and just do a big one.
After a hearty scolding, the Seventeenth Prince knelt down again with a thud: "Now in the court, in front of Khan Ama and all the brothers, they dare to accuse their son. I can imagine what kind of faces they will have when facing their subordinates or the people."
"Maybe it's because my eldest brother was reorganizing the Eight Banners that these people have been quiet for a while. Now that my eldest brother has gone to the battlefield in the northwest, they have become rampant again."
No matter how bad a son is, he is still a prince, and one has to look at the owner before beating a dog. This kind of contempt for the prince shows that he does not take the emperor seriously, which makes the relevant people desperately explain and guarantee.
But the Seventeenth Prince's eyes flashed with a look of triumph: "Since you are so loyal, prove it by helping Khan Ama to relieve his worries."
"After a thorough understanding, my fourth brother discovered the drawbacks of the current taxation and proposed a good solution of allocating taxes according to the amount of land. Khan Ama agrees with it. He plans to try it out in the areas surrounding the capital. You should set an example by yourself."
As for the late emperor’s promise?
Not only the Seventeenth Prince, but even Yinzhen couldn't help asking, "Even Confucius said that the grace of a gentleman will be cut off after five generations. How great have you or your ancestors done for the court that you dare to dream of passing it down from generation to generation?"
"Even after Prince An Yuele passed away, his son Maerhun inherited the title of Prince according to the rules. No matter how great the contributions of you and your ancestors are, can they be greater than his? After my uncle Prince Gong Changning passed away, my cousin only inherited the title of Beile. No matter how close you are, can you be as close as him?"
Those who were asked were speechless.
After all, the descendants of Prince Li Daishan and others who had made real contributions were all treated well.
Even if the new policy is introduced, everyone will have to bleed, and they have big families and big businesses to bear the brunt of the trouble. They will not jump out at the very beginning and sing against the emperor for some trivial matters.
No matter how much the rest of them jump, they can't compare to the two examples mentioned by Yinxuan.
So they didn't respond to Yinxuan's words, and only said that they or their ancestors had left their hometowns and followed the late emperor to the capital. The late emperor promised to ensure that they would be prosperous and wealthy for generations, but it was only a few decades, and then...
If you can't win the argument, why not talk about the late emperor?
Yin Xuan gritted his teeth, his eyes suddenly sharpened: "The late emperor, the late emperor, did you know that a new emperor chooses new ministers? This prince is puzzled. Since you all miss the late emperor so much, why didn't you ask to be buried with him when he passed away and follow him to the underworld?"
