At the beginning, Qin Shi Huang traveled to my home

Chapter 443: Baturu

"Afterwards, Empress Xiaozhuang, you helped Emperor Kangxi train a group of strong young guards.

After everything was ready, the operation to capture Oboi and his followers began.

In 1669, Emperor Kangxi summoned Oboi to the palace for an audience and captured the unsuspecting Oboi by training him in Buku Opera.

Afterwards, more than 30 serious crimes of Oboi were announced in the court. As for Oboi's followers, naturally, they all had no good ending.

Either they were executed or they were dismissed from their posts and exiled.

So it is very important to treat people with the right attitude, otherwise you will get implicated if you are not careful.

This is how the first Baturu Aobai of Manchuria said goodbye to everyone."

"What does this First Baturu mean?" asked Lu Zhi. It was a strange name and she had no idea what it meant.

But it sounds like a compliment.

Others also didn't expect that Empress Lu's focus was quite strange.

Many people in the barrage also asked all kinds of strange questions, so they didn’t think Lu Zhi’s question was that strange, because they also wanted to know.

"It means warrior, hero, very powerful, super powerful," Li Wudao looked at Bumbutai, "Empress Xiaozhuang, is my explanation correct?"

Bumbutai nodded. "That's about what I mean."

Lu Zhi and Deng Sui nodded. So that was what he meant. No wonder.

"It seems that Oboi is quite powerful, the number one Baturu in Manchuria," Deng Sui said. Many of those grassland people were quite powerful and were very tall. They might have grown up eating meat.

Many people in the Qing Dynasty were dissatisfied in front of the sky curtain, especially those in the Kangxi and Shunzhi periods. They thought that Oboi was the number one Baturu in Manchuria. Did they think they were dead?

Anyway, they won’t recognize it. Who doesn’t want to be the number one Baturu?

It's like the most powerful military general among the Han people. Can you distinguish between the first and the second?

So everyone in the barrage was vying for the title of the No. 1 Baturu in Manchuria.

Even though it's just an empty title, who doesn't like an empty title, right? It's a recognition of one's ability!

"She is indeed very impressive, but now let's talk about Empress Xiaozhuang," Li Wu said, but he kept going off topic.

"In 1673, after Emperor Kangxi announced the abolition of the feudal system, the Rebellion of the Three Feudatories broke out.

Empress Xiaozhuang, the marriage alliance you made with the princes has begun to take effect.

Empress Xiaozhuang, please immediately ask Emperor Kangxi to order the execution of Wu Sangui's son and grandson who remain in Beijing.

Wu Sangui could never have imagined that the young emperor Kangxi would have such a decisive and murderous spirit.

The morale of the rebels was greatly reduced as a result. During this eight-year-long battle to suppress the rebellion, Empress Xiaozhuang donated the silver saved by the palace many times to reward the soldiers.

When there were no generals available in the court, he recommended to Emperor Kangxi the old ministers who had participated in the encirclement and suppression of Li Zicheng, which played a decisive role in suppressing the rebellion.

Moreover, whenever there was a famine, you, Empress Xiaozhuang, would always take out the palace savings to provide disaster relief, and fully cooperate with and support Emperor Kangxi's cause.

Naturally, all the court officials saw these actions of yours, Empress Xiaozhuang. They all praised you and called you the Yao and Shun of the palace.

Emperor Kangxi is becoming more and more grateful and respectful to you.

It can be said that Empress Xiaozhuang gave Emperor Kangxi a lot of help. Without you, there would be no Emperor Kangxi," Li Wu said. This was indeed true. After all, Shunzhi had never thought of making Kangxi the emperor at that time. It was Empress Xiaozhuang who urged him to do so.

Kangxi Period: Kangxi nodded and said, "Yes, the immortal is right. Without the Imperial Grandmother, I would not be where I am today."

The Empress Dowager gave him a lot of help when he was young.

Many emperors also expressed their envy of Kangxi in the barrage, because he had such a good grandmother who always cared about him and helped him.

Unlike them, there is only the Empress Dowager who wants to compete with them for power. This is so sad. It is true that comparing yourself with others will make you angry to death.

Both Lu Zhi and Deng Sui were very satisfied with Bumbutai. One should not judge a person by race alone. Although Bumbutai was of a foreign race, she was also a good queen dowager.

This move alone made them feel good about him by allocating money from the palace to reward soldiers going to war and for disaster relief.

Although other dynasties before the Qing Dynasty did not like the Qing Dynasty, they still had nothing to say about Bumbutai, who indeed did a relatively good job.

"Empress Xiaozhuang, you have done a very good job, assisting three emperors," Deng Sui said with a smile. This one is also capable. He was able to let his son ascend to the throne among so many people. Can you say he is incompetent?

"It's okay, it's just my duty," Bumbutai smiled modestly, and the three of them started chatting again.

Li Wu could take a break for a while, eat something, and listen to the three people talking, but Li Wu was confused.

Many queens, empress dowagers and women in the harem listened with great interest and even took notes.

These are all useful to them.

Even the men frowned, they didn't expect that this woman should not be underestimated.

They have their own way of living, which is definitely completely different from men.

Qin Shi Huang's eyes lit up. Men and women think differently about many things. In fact, Qin Shi Huang had no objection to women becoming officials. If a woman was really capable, he would be willing to give her an official position.

Now, emperors of many dynasties also strongly support women's reading and literacy. If they are capable, they can recommend themselves, and there is no discrimination based on gender.

Especially in the earlier dynasties, the status of women was already high. Unlike the later dynasties, they allowed women to study and go out. They said they were already very tolerant. As for the imperial examination, it was absolutely impossible and many people opposed it.

You have to do it step by step. You can't finish it all at once. That would be impossible.

By the time the three of them finished chatting, Li Wu had already put down her chopsticks. She never eats until she is full, and about 70% full is enough for her.

The three of them were all smiling, looking as if they were still unsatisfied.

"Little Immortal, please continue." Knowing that he had not finished telling his story, he naturally had to finish it first.

"Okay," Li Wu nodded. "In 1681, after the Three Feudatories Rebellion was quelled, Emperor Kangxi rejected the request of his ministers to give him an imperial title, and instead proposed to give the title to Empress Xiaozhuang.

Empress Xiaozhuang declined repeatedly, but finally, at the insistence of Emperor Kangxi, you took on the title.

When Kangxi was touring Shengjing, he sent people to inquire about Empress Xiaozhuang's daily life and report his whereabouts almost every day along the way, for fear that she would worry.

He also sent the fish he caught in the river to Empress Xiaozhuang for you to taste.

You have raised Emperor Kangxi's grandson very well.

In 1687 AD, your life, Empress Xiaozhuang, also came to an end.

Empress Xiaozhuang, you were seriously ill, and Emperor Kangxi served you in the palace for more than 30 days. Later, he personally led the princes and ministers to walk to the Temple of Heaven to pray to the heavens, saying that he would rather sacrifice his own life in exchange for giving you, Empress Xiaozhuang, more life!"
