lied to Kangxi

199 Shocked chin

At the end of the time, Cao Yin's official ship docked smoothly.

No matter how upset Qingtai was in his heart, he still stood beside the springboard and greeted his in-laws with a smile so that Yuzhu would not be embarrassed.

After Cao Yin got off the boat, he only saw Qingtai and Yuzhu, but no sign of Naersu. Hey, his mentality immediately became unbalanced.

Originally, it was Kangxi's preference for Cao's family that Cao Jia was able to marry him to Naersu because he was born in Cao's family.

Now, Cao Yin personally sent Da Cao Jia's family to Beijing to officially marry Naersu.Who would have thought that Na Ersu actually put on the airs of the county king without even showing his face, which is really a shame.

Fang Cai, Cao Yin's way of looking around, was already clearly seen by Yuzhu.

Yuzhu knew very well that Cao Yin was looking for a good son-in-law Neersu.

Hey, the good son-in-law didn't show up, but the bad son-in-law and bad in-laws came to greet him in person.

How do you look at this matter, how awkward.

In fact, Cao Yin is not a fool.

Between the prince and Lao Ba, the Cao family's strategy is to hedge their bets.

When the crown prince came to ask for money, the Cao family would give as much as he wanted, without any hesitation.

Lao Ba had no son, so Li Xu from Suzhou Weaving paid a lot of money to buy several stunning women from Jiangnan, and secretly gave them to Lao Ba.

Moreover, the Cao family also secretly gave Lao Ba several 10 taels of silver behind the crown prince's back.

Na Ersu is a member of the old fourteen, and the old fourteen is a hard-core Eighth Master Party. If he wins over Na Ersu, the Cao family will have no worries from now on!
As for Yu Zhu, although he is also a son-in-law, he is only the son-in-law of a concubine's daughter.The importance of jade pillars is naturally much lower than that of Naersu, the hereditary king of the county. This is one of them.

Second, Cao Yin, who is far away in the south of the Yangtze River, has also heard that Yuzhu's brain was flooded, and he actually offended the prince and Lao Ba at the same time.

This is simply the birthday boy hanged himself, it's so boring!

That's why Cao Yin deliberately kept a distance from Yu Zhu, so as not to be mistaken for Yu Zhu's backing by the prince or the old eight.

After Qingtai and Cao Yin pretended to be polite, they deliberately asked Cao Yin: "If brother Cao didn't arrange a place to stay, my brother's house is spacious."

The Cao family has an old house in the capital city, and it occupies a fairly large area, with more than thirty rooms.

Before Cao Yin came to Beijing, he had already ordered people to come to Beijing to tidy up the old house.Although the Cao family's old house is far from the grandeur and luxury of Jiangning, it can barely live in.

"Brother Qing is too polite. Brother Yu has already made arrangements, so I won't bother you." Qingtai was very satisfied with Cao Yin's excuse.

Qingtai is just because of the face of his in-laws, how can he sincerely invite Cao Yin to live in Qingfu?

Following Cao Yin's order, the members of the Cao family disembarked one by one.

Dacao Jiashi is Yuzhu's sister-in-law, and she is waiting to be married.In line with the principle of no evil, Yuzhu deliberately lowered his head and looked at the ground.

It wasn't until Da Cao Jiashi walked past him that Yuzhu raised her head, and all she saw was her slender back.

However, what Ling Yuzhu didn't expect was that Cao Jiashi had already seen his appearance clearly on the boat.

After returning to the city, Qingtai bid farewell and returned home.

Yuzhu, the son-in-law, couldn't get away. He accompanied the Cao family back to the old house.

The old house of the Cao family is located in Shaojiu Alley on the border of Zhengbai Banner in the inner city.

After Yuzhu sent Cao Yin to the second gate, Cao Yin pretended to be tired and said, "My son-in-law has worked hard, but after all, the old man is getting old and tired."

Cao Yin's excuse hit Yuzhu's heart, and he immediately said, "Then please Abuha to rest early, my son-in-law will come to clean up your old man sometime later."

The son-in-law and the son-in-law made a few more polite remarks, and Yu Zhu left the Cao family's old house.

On the second day, while playing chess with Kangxi, the old emperor suddenly asked Yuzhu: "Did Cao Yin arrive yesterday?"

When Kangxi asked such a question, Yuzhu understood in his heart that the matter of Cao Yin stepping on three boats has not yet been exposed.

"The minister's Ama went to pick him up with the minister, and Abuha still lives in the old house in Shaojiu Hutong." Yuzhu knew what Kangxi wanted to hear, so he explained in detail the whole process of picking up Cao Yin at Tongzhou Wharf.

When Kangxi heard that Neersu hadn't gone to Tongzhou at all, he couldn't help but lower his face, and said coldly, "The girl from the Cao family is worthy of her. If Cao Yin didn't want to supervise the weaving in the south of the Yangtze River, she would have been an important minister of the court long ago."

Yuzhu understood very well that Cao Yin's ability to engage in royal weaving was simply weak.

What Kangxi really valued about Cao Yin was his childhood and deep affection.The second is that Cao Yin is the eyes of the old emperor monitoring Jiangnan.

Yuzhu knew in his heart that Kangxi really had feelings for Cao Yin, and Neersu openly treated Cao Yin slowly, obviously because he was very dissatisfied with the daughter who was married and wrapped.

That's right, Naersu's surname is Aixinjueluo, and he actually married the daughter of Baoyi, which is indeed a bit of a face.

Last time, Naersu bowed his head to Yuzhu for money, and Yuzhu was his brother-in-law after all, so he didn't take the opportunity to make trouble.

Kangxi also knew that although Yuzhu and Naersu were brother-in-law, they were extremely at odds.

Yuzhu didn't take the opportunity to speak ill of Naersu, and in Kangxi's eyes, he became a model of kindness.

The two were playing chess, Wei Zhu came in and said, Cao Yin handed over the cards, please see him.

"Call him in." Kangxi ordered Wei Zhu casually without the slightest hesitation.

Soon, Cao Yin was led in.

When Cao Yin saw clearly that the person playing chess with the emperor was actually Yuzhu, "Ah..." he was stunned for a moment.

"Yuzhu, bring a stool for your Abuha." Kangxi was extraordinarily polite to Cao Yin, knowing that Cao Yin lost his temper in front of the king, but pretended not to know.

Yuzhu went out, took a brocade stool from the eunuch, and moved it to Cao Yin's side.

Cao Yin has already seen Li, and his eyes are red, talking about himself with Kangxi.

"Master, I haven't seen you for several years, and your sideburns have turned white."

This is what the emperor dared to say.Even Yuzhu didn't dare to take the initiative to remind the emperor that you are getting old!

Kangxi sighed softly, and said, "Oh, in a blink of an eye, I am no longer the little boy I was back then. Ziqing, you are much older."

Yuzhu pricked up his ears, listening to the common conversation between Kangxi and Cao Yinla, but unexpectedly, the old emperor reprimanded him abruptly, "Like a stupid goose, it's your turn."

Hey, Yu Zhu frowned on purpose, muttering something in a low voice.

"Hey, old man, you are amazing!" Yu Zhu deliberately flattered the old emperor.

Kangxi stroked his beard and laughed softly: "Hey, you little monkey, can you escape the palm of the Buddha?"

"Hey, in the Wuzhi Mountain of the Great Buddha, I lie very comfortably, why are you running away?" Yu Zhu's witty words immediately made Kangxi laugh.

"Okay, get out, come and play chess with me tomorrow." Kangxi had something private to say to Cao Yin, then he waved his hand and drove away Yuzhu.

Cao Yin observed the whole process, and Yu Zhu and the emperor had no big or small exchanges, and his heart was uncontrollably shocked.

To be honest, Cao Yin never dreamed that Yu Zhu would be so close to the old emperor.

Based on Cao Yin's understanding of Kangxi, he must be treating Yuzhu as a serious junior if he can say rolling words to Yuzhu.

After Yuzhu came out of the palace, he went directly to the tax patrol camp.

Today's tax patrol camp, Sun Chengyun and Qian Zong, is just a name, and the real leaders are Niu Tai and Bai Xing.

When Yuzhu entered the camp, there was not even a gatekeeper at the door, he almost laughed angrily.

When I went in, Bai Xing was leading troops for training.He was bare-chested alone, at the front of the team, brandishing a broadsword vigorously, chopping very powerfully.

The tax soldiers with blue cloth strips on their heads are not only uneven in size, but also have various colors of coats.

In the same row of tax soldiers, some held knives, some held spears, and some held iron chains, and so on.

From a long distance, Yu Zhu found out that among Bai Xing's subordinates, there were actually several skinny uncles in their 40s.

Cough, you can tell at a glance that they are here to dawdle in the camp.

Seeing Yu Zhu coming, Bai Xing hurried over to greet him.

Yu Zhu asked Bai Xing: "Is this training?"

Bai Xing nodded and said loudly, "My lord, Biao Xia is training the tax soldiers of the station."

Yu Zhu thought about it for a while, and he understood in seconds. Bai Xing's so-called military training was that he was shirtless, brandishing a big knife in front of people, and teaching these tax soldiers how to slash people.

Falling a leaf tells autumn, and from Baixing's low-level performance, it can be seen that the training status of the Eight Banners soldiers in the Fengtai camp should also be chaotic.

You know, Bai Xing used to be the leader of Fengtai Camp.

The leaders of the elite troops are all like this, let alone the ordinary Eight Banners soldiers?

"Well, let's continue training." Yuzhu wanted to see the real situation in the tax camp, so he didn't disturb Baixing's training.

After Bai Xing went back to continue training, Yuzhu ordered someone to move a chair, and sat at the back of the team, silently observing the team's situation.

How should I put it, these tax soldiers are neither combat troops nor security forces within the establishment.

The matter of improving equipment cannot be mentioned at all.

Therefore, the basic equipment of tax soldiers can only be knives and guns.

Regardless of whether an army, whether it is a security force or a regular official army of the imperial court, whether it can fight or not, we must first of all enforce orders and prohibit them.

The key to order and prohibition is to have capable grassroots officers.

The most typical example is actually Weimar Germany before the Führer came to power, with only [-] Wehrmacht troops.

However, all of these 10 people have received systematic training according to the standards of military officers.

Therefore, after the head of state came to power and expanded the army, it was by relying on these 800 officers that the national defense force was expanded to a terrifying scale of [-] million people.

Soldiers are fine, not too many!

While eating dinner in the tax barracks, Yu Zhu deliberately walked over.

Alas, Yu Zhu secretly shook his head as he walked all the way.

The bowls of the tax soldiers were full of brown rice that was yellowish or even black.There is only one dish to accompany the meal, pickled white radish strips.

After leaving the tax barracks, Yu Zhu had a thought in his mind all the time, the soldiers are not available, so they must overthrow and start over!

It is better to have a bird in hand than a hundred birds in sight.

Yuzhu can only make the most reasonable choice for military training according to local conditions.

(PS: Hey, Kung Pao's small station, Zhu Gong's tax soldiers are also. The taste of military power is very fragrant, it's time to appreciate the monthly ticket!)
