Recap Chinese Drama "The Long River 2022" Episode 33

Nov 28, 2022

Kangxi found out that the six ministers and cabinet scholars all bought silt fields, but the biggest profiter behind it was the prince. The prince not only robbed the women of the people and placed them in other courtyards to spend time and drink, but also took the forbidden drug aphrodisiac powder without telling Kangxi. Kangxi was furious because of this, and killed those dog eunuchs who bewitched the prince on the spot, intending to end the prince's life, but the empress dowager Xiaozhuang came forward to stop him.

Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang retreated from the crowd, listening to Kangxi slowly telling the truth, hating the prince for disappointing herself. Although the prince's act is a felony for any minister, but because he is the prince, the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang reminded Kangxi to think twice before looking for loyal ministers and generals to assist the prince, and he must not let the outside world see the royal joke.

At the suggestion of the Empress Dowager Xiaozhuang, this matter came to an end for the time being. The prince is still a prince, but Kangxi asked him to recognize Tang Bin as his teacher. This man's incorruptibility is obvious to all. He has been an official for decades, and his three meals are only green vegetables and tofu.

Because Tang Bin was one of the main officials in charge of patrolling the river, Kangxi asked him about things on the river. Tang Bin said that not all the people opposed digging the river, and some supported it. However, he considered Jin Fu and Chen Huang's years of experience in river management. It is rich, so it is not written in the report.

That night, the emergency army reported to the capital, and General Yaksa defected and led 2,000 Cossack cavalry and Junggars to capture Horqin. Kangxi ordered Suo'etu to go to Yakesa to negotiate, and then Suo'etu reported the news, imploring Kangxi to use the power of the whole country to crusade against Galdan to prevent the strength of Ge Erdan from increasing.

Mingzhu holds a different point of view, suggesting to plan the route first and reserve military supplies. Besides, the household department does not have any extra money to allocate. If it is really rash to send troops, I am afraid that it will not be Galdan's opponent. However, Kangxi yelled at Mingzhu in public, and couldn't swallow it at all. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Gao Shiqi immediately took the lead in supporting Kangxi's counterattack, and the other ministers followed suit.

In the end, Kangxi notified the Mongolian princes to join forces to protect themselves, and sent all the Jingqi battalion to Xishan to prepare for the war. As for the river digging project, it continued as usual, and the bankers declared by Jin Fu and Chen Huang were not approved. Not long after, Samuha personally came to the River Governor's Mansion to announce the decree. Kangxi named Jin Fu and Chen Huang for throwing money away, sentenced them to dismissal and stayed on, and was ordered to assist Sun in starting the construction of Fengkai River.

Chen Huang was dissatisfied when he heard the words, and Samuha didn't stay any longer, and left first. Jin Fu called Uncle Guo He back and mentioned the matter of closing the gate. In fact, he could also understand the emperor's difficulties. The court had no money to allocate the river. But the problem is that the flood season is less than two months away. Chen Huang believes that once the seawater backflows, the projects they built before and the dam reduction dams will not be able to resist.

In Jin Fu's view, the rivers, mountains, and Yellow Rivers are not owned by Kangxi. From Dayu to the present, dynasties have changed, and there have been many kings throughout the ages. Only the people of the world are the real masters. And he is not the emperor, but the future generations. Therefore, Jin Fu refused to pay the price with the lives of the people. Since the emperor was not enlightened, he simply refused to serve him. Uncle Guo He felt that Chen Huang was exaggerating, but Jin Fu actually supported Chen Huang's point of view and wrote a report to Kangxi himself.

In the following days, Mingzhu and Gao Shiqi often went in and out of the palace, but Kangxi completely ignored it. Gao Shiqi hated Chen Huang, but he didn't expect that Jin Fu, who was more measured in his daily affairs, would also disobey the emperor. He and Mingzhu were really worried about these two people. Mingzhu heard that Sabusu, who was thousands of miles away, led the army to rescue Suo'etu, and instantly guessed what the emperor meant. Although she felt that accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger, she couldn't help shouting that it was a good job.

Jin Fu brought Kangxi's letter to the Luoma Lake construction site. The letter revealed that Kangxi did not want them to refute his face, but Chen Huang had already written a memorial and sent it to the capital in a secret box, taking all the responsibilities. Because Chen Huang witnessed the tragedy that swallowed millions of lives overnight, he would never allow history to repeat itself. Jin Fu saw that Chen Huang was quitting, and persuaded him to cheer up and protect the Yellow River.
