lied to Kangxi

Chapter 225 Old Eight Has Started

Yuzhu held everyone's hands and explained in detail how to inspect the embankment inch by inch.

"Well, you can invent new words." Kangxi laughed excitedly after he understood the essentials of dragging nets and patrolling, "Fourth brother, the Yellow River embankment has been saved."

The fourth child is a super doer. He has long been thinking about taking Yuzhu into his family, so he knelt down and said, "I invite Khan Ama to transfer Yuzhu to the Ministry of Industry and act as the right servant."

Kangxi glanced at Yuzhu with his head down, smiled, waved his hands and said, "He's too lazy to go outside to suffer, he should enjoy the happiness in the palace."

Hey, as soon as the words came out, the fourth child understood that Yuzhu was being targeted by Kangxi, and he was going to be lazy.

After the report was over, the fourth child led his men and left.

As a rule, apart from the elder brother who is in charge, among the various ministries, the Clan Mansion and the Li Fan Academy are the first batch of performances.

Secondly, the four departments of household, rites, soldiers, and engineering are played in sequence.

The Ministry of Punishment, Dali Temple, and Metropolitan Procuratorate, these three judicial divisions, are often listed in the third batch.

The Hanlin Academy, Zhan Shifu, Ke, Dao and Jiuqing will perform, listed after the five ministries.

As for the official department with the greatest real power, it ranks at the bottom of all yamen.

Yuzhu saw Qingtai, the left servant, in the shift of the official department.

Yesterday, after Yuzhu returned to Beijing, he wanted to visit Qingtai first.Unexpectedly, Qingtai's father-in-law was ill, and he wanted to serve the sick at the sick bed, so Yuzhu didn't make it.

Qingtai was a man with clear eyes and a bright heart. When he saw the emperor, he stood beside Yu Zhu, a second-class shrimp, secretly happy for his precious son.

After the Minister of the Ministry of Officials finished playing and led all the ministers to leave, Kangxi took the initiative to stop Qingtai.

"Qingtai, Cao Yin complained to me in secret, saying that you have not fixed the date of marriage, what is the reason?" Kangxi questioned Qingtai sternly in front of Yuzhu.

Yuzhu felt very uncomfortable, the old emperor was too partial to the Cao family.

Qingtai had discussed this matter with Yuzhu a long time ago, so he naturally had a solid foundation in his heart, so he knelt down unhurriedly, and explained: "Long live Lord, this servant has already told Cao Yin that the marriage house It had already been prepared, the dowry was prepared, and the date of the wedding was determined by him. However, what the slave couldn't understand was that Cao Yin said that his Cao family was in a big deficit, and even the dowry of 3 taels of silver I can't get out."

Hmph, Cao Yin is not benevolent, so don't blame Qingtai for being unrighteous.

Cao Yin himself was reluctant to pay more dowry, so he beat him upside down and put the shit bowl on Qingtai's head.

You know, Qingtai is also Kangxi's cousin, how can he let it go?
"Long Live Lord, please judge me. When Cao Yin's eldest daughter got married, it was fifteen miles of red makeup. Oh, rich people marry their daughters into the Pingjun Prince's Mansion, and marry their daughters into my Tong's family. Even the dowry of 3 taels is not enough. Can't afford it? It's just unreasonable?" Qingtai became more and more aggrieved as he said, he kowtowed heavily and cried loudly, "If the Cao family thinks that I, Tong Jia, have insulted their family's lintel, please forgive me for being timid, and respectfully Lord Long Live withdrew his intention of marriage."

Kangxi didn't go to see Qingtai, but kept looking at Yuzhu coldly.

According to the father-son rule, Qingtai cried, and Yuzhu knelt down to plead guilty.

However, there are strict rules in the palace. When guards with swords are on duty, they are not allowed to act rashly unless they are summoned by the emperor.

Yuzhu kept stroking the handle of the knife, standing like a door god, completely motionless.

"Oh, I know, I have wronged you." Kangxi sighed faintly.

Kangxi knew very well in his heart that the Cao family was just a coat of the Han army on the three banners of the House of Internal Affairs, while the Tong family was the first family of foreign relatives in Manchuria with the Yellow Banner.

The families of the two families are very different.

If it hadn't been for Kangxi's deliberate play-by-play and messy mandarin ducks, Qingtai wouldn't even be able to pinch the Cao family.

"Yuzhu, what do you think?" Kangxi saw that Yuzhu had been following the rules all along, and as soon as he was satisfied, he casually asked his opinion.

The emperor asked a question and had to answer it.

Yu Zhu then knelt down, salivating and said: "If you go back to the emperor, I think that the Cao family suffered a big loss, and it is also loyal, which is understandable. However, if the difference in treatment between marrying the eldest daughter and marrying the second daughter is too great, That would be too much. If the emperor lends another 10 taels of silver to the Cao family, then there should be no shortage of dowry, right?"

When Qingtai heard it, he couldn't help but feel very happy, and secretly praised Yuzhu's skill.

The emperor lent money to the Cao family, but it was still the Cao family who owed the debt, and had nothing to do with the Tong family.

The Cao family, anyway, had a lot of debts and couldn't afford to pay back the money long ago, so they were not afraid to borrow an extra 10 taels.

Kangxi laughed angrily, pointed at the jade pillar, and scolded: "Little bastard, I just got a little more money in the internal treasury, and you are thinking about it?"

Yuzhu was not afraid of being scolded at all, he said with a smile: "It is a great story to meet a monarch and his ministers on extraordinary occasions. Your Majesty, it is only 10 taels, and your internal treasury is full of silver."

Others must not know, but Yuzhu's heart is like a mirror.

Kangxi, that's really feeling sorry for Cao Yin, not a fake one!
Until the collapse of the Kangxi Mountain Mausoleum, he had always loved and cared for the Cao family.

After Cao Yong's early death, Kangxi even arranged the whole process of adopting Cao Fu to Cao Yin.

"Both of you, father and son, don't want to take money from me. Let's do it this way. I'm getting old. I'm afraid it's the last tour to the south. You all go to Jiangning together. Explain the matter clearly in front of me. How are you?"

It's good for Kangxi to ask, but who dares to object?

So, it was settled.

Qingtai, the former acting general of Jiangning, and Yuzhu, who blackmailed the father-in-law, are about to revisit the hometown of Jiangning.

After being on duty, Yu Zhu had nowhere to go, so he lay down on the small bed in the dormitory, closing his eyes and resting his mind.

The second-class guard with a knife in front of the imperial court is very close to the emperor.Going out of the palace is also flattered by everyone.

The fly in the ointment is that as long as one is in the palace, the space for personal activities is compressed to the extreme.It is absolutely impossible to wander around so that the emperor can't find anyone.

Sugarcane is not as sweet as the two ends, and everything has advantages and disadvantages.

However, Yuzhu's treatment was unexpectedly superior.

The tea room in the Qianqing Gate is open to serve hot tea and snacks for an unlimited time for senior guards of Yuzhu's level.

Of course, the third-class shrimps can only stare blankly.After they got off duty and returned to the dormitory, as long as they missed the fixed hour, they could only drink the cold tea in the pot.

Sai Le came back from duty and chatted with Yu Zhu.

Hearing that Yuzhu hadn't gone to the Siyuan to select horses, Sai Le said excitedly, "When I get off work tomorrow, shall I accompany you to the horse selection?"

Bed friends, colleagues, or relatives, and not annoying.

Even if Yu Zhu knew how to be a man again, it was impossible for Sai Le to be distracted, so he nodded and agreed with a smile.

The post of Yuzhu is to stand for an hour, rest for three hours, and repeat.

When the old emperor finished his lunch, Yu Zhu happened to take over and stood in front of the Jingxin Zhai.

When playing chess with the old emperor, the old emperor smiled and asked Yuzhu: "Are you still used to it?"

If it was an ordinary subject, he would definitely say against his will, thank the emperor for his concern, the subject is very adaptable.

Yuzhu is not an ordinary person, he said with a bitter face: "Master, it's too restrained, I can't stand it."

Kangxi squinted at Yuzhu, and scolded angrily: "Look at you, you are so small, you don't even have a day, how can you go to Heilongjiang in the future?"

Yuzhu understood Kangxi's hint, and immediately regained his energy, and said with high spirits: "Beat the Raksha devil, I am not afraid of suffering and losing my life, but I am afraid of being idle."

Kangxi dropped his son, and said with a smile: "Back then, the fourth child was just like you, he couldn't sit still. Later, I taught him a lesson many times. Hey, he's much calmer now."

Yu Zhu knew this old classic.

The fourth elder brother Yinzhen was originally an unusually lively chatterbox, like a curious baby who wanted to interrupt everything.

As a result, Kangxi scolded the fourth child in front of everyone several times.

The current fourth elder brother, apart from talking about official business, is like a gourd with a dull mouth, and he can not gossip for a whole day.

After getting along with Kangxi for a long time, Yu Zhu gradually felt his temper.

When Kangxi was in a good mood, no matter how much he joked with him, he wouldn't be really angry.

However, if you touch his imperial power, or damage his majesty.Hey, the words of cursing are extremely vicious and embarrassing.

Yuzhu's method of dealing with Kangxi is both simple and complicated.

To put it simply, everything that Yuzhu does has nothing to do with Kangxi.Regardless of whether it is fragrant or stinky, let's talk about everything in detail.

The greatest loyalty for a subject to the emperor is sincerity!
It is complicated, which requires super eyesight.

When Kangxi was in a good mood, Yuzhu would dare to make jokes.If the emperor was upset, Yu Zhu would keep his mouth shut and would not say a word.

It is the basic skill of a minister to observe words and expressions to figure out the best intentions.

However, it is easier said than done, and it is extremely complicated, and it can only be understood, not explained in words!

As soon as Yuzhu returned to Tongzhou Wharf, he heard that someone was secretly spreading gossip about him and Longkodo.

Long Kedo holds the military power, and Yu Zhu holds the money bag. If the father and son have a disagreement, it will be unpredictable!

Yuzhu knew as soon as he heard it, it must be Lao Ba's sharp counterattack.

Why not the prince?
Prince Yinreng had bitten Longkodo before, but he couldn't bite.

Yuzhu's body is covered with braids.However, there are not even half of the fatal flaws, which is very tricky.

In addition, after Lao Jiu was driven to guard the imperial ancestral mausoleum, Lao Ba not only lost a dog-headed military adviser, but also his income plummeted, and the loss was much greater than that of the prince.

As the saying goes, the clay bodhisattva is still a bit earthy, let alone the helm of the huge Eight Lord Party?
The secret shackles, who are deeply versed in the emperor's mind, did not directly expose Longkodo's corruption, but spread gossip secretly.

In this man-eating society, there will be no excuses.

Often, gossips that spread from the palace eventually became true.

Longkodona is an old bag who has inquired about it, and he has extremely rich experience in struggle.

As soon as Yuzhu came home, he told his son that he must not take the initiative to ask the old emperor to explain the matter.

Cough, Yuzhu is also an old bureaucrat, he is naturally very clear that there is no way for you to explain this kind of thing.

The more you explain, the darker the description will become, arousing the suspicion of the old emperor.
