lied to Kangxi

Chapter 347 The Unavoidable Nepotism

On the day of the Great Heat, the imperial court issued an edict to start Mulan autumn after the beginning of autumn.

In the middle and late period of Kangxi's reign, he would go to Mulan Paddock almost every year.

The main reason is that the Junggar Khanate has never been destroyed, and the careerists on the Mongolian grasslands are inextricably linked with the Zhunbu.

After the Qing Dynasty entered the customs, one of the basic national policies that has been implemented is to unite the Mongolian tribes and suppress the Central Plains.

If Mongolia is uneasy, the world will be uneasy.

Yuzhu was ordered to rectify the soldiers and horses, ready to escort the north to Rehe.

According to Kangxi's instructions, there are two types of soldiers and horses controlled by Yuzhu.

One is that the Ministry of Internal Affairs has coated the Three Banners and Three Battalions.The so-called three battalions refer to the guard battalion, the Xiaoqi battalion and the forward battalion, which are composed of coats.

Coated Three Banners and Three Battalions, there is no capital commander and deputy capital commander, and the leader is the highest officer in the camp.

However, in these three battalions, each battalion has three participating leaders, namely the Manchurian, Mongolian, and Han armies.

In this way, among the emperor's personal soldiers, no one has the greatest military power, restricting and supervising each other.

For example, Yuzhu's father-in-law, Fucha Changde, was one of the three battalions of the Xiaoqi Battalion under the leadership of the Zhengbai Banner Han Army, and he controlled more than 1000 soldiers and horses.

These more than 1000 people may not seem to be many, but when the mountain collapses, it is likely to play a key role in reinforcements.

In a word, Yuzhu is Han Xin's order of troops, the more the better.The more soldiers and horses in his hands, the better, never too few.

"Please refer to the general manager for humble positions." The nine leaders of Baoyi's third battalion bowed their heads together to greet Yuzhu who came to inspect.

The Coated Three Banners and Three Battalions have always been an important military force guarding the palace. They belong to the nature of the imperial guards and are too sensitive.

Even if Yu Zhu is in charge of the nine of them, he will not easily touch the internal personnel of the third battalion.

So far, Kangxi has not absolutely trusted Yuzhu, but is only slowly trying to reuse it.

Yu Zhu is also a guy who knows how to measure, he only tosses in the brave camp of the direct line, and doesn't care about the rest of the camp.

"Everyone, sit down." Yu Zhu politely gave up his seat.

"Thank you, Chief Manager." On the surface, the nine counselors were quite obedient, and they thanked each other before taking their seats.

"Everyone, the upcoming autumn is of great importance. We must earnestly prepare for the battle. Don't be careless." Yuzhu scanned the audience for a week and reminded him specially.

All the soldiers present here are the emperor's personal soldiers, Yu Zhu was not afraid that they would leak the news, so he let out the news in advance.

"My lord, there is still a shortage of more than 300 war horses in the humble battalion. Please, my lord, tell your majesty to make up for it as soon as possible." Ece, the Mongolian leader of the Xiaoqi battalion, took the lead to speak out. difficulty.

It would be unbelievable that the emperor's personal soldiers were short of horses, if Yu Zhu was not the head of the House of Internal Affairs.

However, Yu Zhu knew that what E Ce said was indeed the truth.

The Shangsi Academy affiliated to the Ministry of Internal Affairs is an institution dedicated to raising horses for the royal family.In the Shangsi courtyard, there are dozens of special horse farms alone.

However, the death rate of war horses in the horse farm to which Shangsi Academy belonged was astonishingly high.

To put it simply, at least eight of the ten foals in the racecourse will die when they grow up to adulthood.

The reason for such a high death rate is well known to everyone.However, no one dared to say anything.

Sun Chengyun, Yuzhu's hard-core brother, used to resell the royal horses of the royal ranch when he was poor. How could Yuzhu not know the tricks?
However, Yuzhu didn't intend to delve into the matter of the lack of horses. He nodded and said, "This manager will specially play to the Emperor Ming to make up for the horses you need."

It is impossible for Kangxi not to know about the corruption of the Ministry of Internal Affairs.

However, the clear rule is that in the greedy House of Internal Affairs, as long as you are loyal to the emperor, you can turn a blind eye to other things.

Even Kangxi doesn't care, unless Yu Zhu's head is ironed, he will intervene to offend others.

Yuzhu came here today to really solve the problem.

On weekdays, no matter how corrupt these people are, Yuzhu is too lazy to take care of them.

However, going to Rehe this time is likely to go to the battlefield and confront the Mongolian careerists.

Since the nine participating soldiers and horses belonged to Yu Zhu's command, they couldn't just collapse before the battle started, right?
After Er Ce started, the remaining eight participants followed suit with various demands.

How should I put it, only from these various requirements, Yu Zhu has already seen clearly the essence of the Eight Banners soldiers: decaying day by day!

However, Yu Zhu didn't expect these people to be of much help.

Cough, as long as you don't add trouble to Yuzhu, it's considered meritorious service.

Yuzhu didn't have high requirements for the nine leaders, they had to have all the horses under their command, and they had to prepare enough food and grass to facilitate the pursuit and killing of the retreating Mongols.

The Yongrui Battalion's volleyball tactics have been proven by actual combat, Yuzhu already has a bottom line in his heart, so there is no need to worry about this.

After Yuzhu collected all the questions, he left the lobby of the House of Internal Affairs to report the lack of horses to Kangxi.

After Kangxi heard this, he didn't say much, but told Yuzhu to go to the Shangsi Academy to choose horses.

Since it was a horse selection, Yu Zhu took Niu Tai with him.

The current doctor of the Shangsi Academy is Yifei's younger brother, named Opuku.

Opuku is the uncle of the Fifth and the Ninth. Think about it, how could Yuzhu get to the bottom of the matter of the lack of horses?
In the House of Internal Affairs, nepotism is extremely complicated. Even if Kangxi wanted to rectify it, he would be wary of it, let alone Yuzhu?

Opuku's eldest brother, Daobao, is currently the governor of Prince Heshuoheng's residence and the deputy governor of Mongolia in Xianghuang Banner.

Prince He Shuoheng, also known as the fifth child, Yu Zhu's hardcore An Da.

Opuku also knows the relationship between Yuzhu and Lao Wu.

Since he was one of his own, he didn't hide it from Yu Zhu, and said with a sigh: "Sir, the lowly position is also very helpless. The people below eat hard-core crops, but don't work hard, and even sell horses for money. There is really no way to be humble."

Yuzhu smiled, although what Opuku said was the truth, he only told half the truth.

From top to bottom, the officials in the Shangsi Courtyard all follow the approach of getting the moon first.May I ask, which official didn't resell the horses for silver?
If you really want to investigate it carefully, I'm afraid your head will be filled with several big baskets!

"Old E, you are the fifth master's uncle, so I won't talk nonsense. I'm not here to check the accounts, but to choose a good horse." Yu Zhu also gave Opku a bite Rest assured, it is obvious that as long as you give me a good horse, the boss is too lazy to take care of other things.

Opuku was full of joy when he got Yuzhu's words, he led Yuzhu into the imperial stable, shaking his head.

"Boss, as long as it's not the horses that the emperor likes to ride, you can choose whatever you want." Opuku is also a sensible person, and Yu Zhu is a serious boss. He just came to select horses, but he didn't ask anything, which is already very flattering up.

Niu Tai is an expert in horse selection, so Yuzhu will not meddle in it.Anyway, as long as it is a horse that Niu Tai likes, it must be a fine horse.

Opuku invited Yuzhu into his office, Yuzhu walked in and saw, good guy, there are actually nine big icebergs in the small room, it's too cool.

As Yuzhu is the head of the House of Internal Affairs, when he was in the palace, he would put up five icebergs at most.

After the tea was served, Yu Zhu picked up the teacup and asked Opuku with a smile: "Uncle, are you interested in going to Rehe to earn some military merit?"

The fifth brother treats Yuzhu with sincerity, and they are officially sworn brothers to An Da. Yuzhu has a good opportunity to make military achievements, so it is naturally impossible to ignore the fifth brother's relatives and uncles.

When Opuku heard Yuzhu calling his uncle, he couldn't help grinning sweetly.

"You are the fifth master's answer, please forgive the humble position, and call you Qingqing, okay?"

Around Lao Wu, the eldest uncle Daobao is the most respected, and the closest to him is the fifth uncle Opuku.

In private, as Opuku, it is not too presumptuous to call Yuzhu by his name.

Yu Zhu nodded with a smile, and said, "Uncle, don't be polite to me, just sit down and talk."

After Opuku sat down, he whispered: "Since you have rewarded the opportunity to make meritorious service, if I don't accept it, it would be too ignorant of flattery. But, you also know that I am still looking at the fifth master There is really no way to leave the stall business."

Hearing Opuku's evasion, Yuzhu understood that this guy was afraid of death, and he didn't even want to fish for the military merits that were handed over to him.

That's right, Opuku is guarded by the old five, and guards the fertile land of Shangsiyuan. How can he leave the world of flowers and flowers in the capital and go to the grassland to eat soil?

After entering the customs for nearly 70 years, the Eight Banners soldiers have become more and more decayed!
Either way, the more corrupt the Eight Banners soldiers are, the easier it will be for Yuzhu to succeed in the future.

After the horses from the Three Banners and Three Battalions were all matched, Yu Zhu went straight back to Long Mansion.

After dinner, when Longkodo and Yuzhu were drinking tea together, he said, "Your sixth uncle Qingheng, ask me to bring you a message. He also wants to go to Rehe to make meritorious service."

Yuzhu thought about it intently. In Old Tong's house, the brothers who were at odds with Longkodo were mainly the eldest Ye Keshu and the second eldest Dekexin.

However, these two are Yuzhu's uncle and second uncle respectively.

Seeing that Yuzhu didn't say anything, Longkodo also understood his son's concerns, so he sighed and said: "I think back then, before you became a weapon, the fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh brothers were all fools. The eldest brother and the second My brother gained the upper hand, and they followed me with the watermelon on the big side. I gained the upper hand, and they helped me clean up my elder brother and second brother, alas, the wind blows and falls on both sides.”

"Let's put it this way, relatively speaking, your sixth uncle is pretty good." Longkodo said so much, how could Yuzhu not understand his thoughts?

"Sure, Ama, just send someone to give Uncle Six a message, and I will find an opportunity to recommend him to the emperor."

After the rise of Yuzhu, there is no Tong family around him, which is really unreasonable.

In addition, Yuzhu's heart is like a mirror, and Tong Guowei's shadow must be hidden behind this incident.

Tong Guowei tried his best to reject all opinions, and sent Yuzhu's aunt Hesheli to the family temple, and completely ignored Yuzhu's elder brother Yue Xing'a. The picture is not that after Yuzhu rises, he pulls his uncle Do you or your cousins ​​ascend to heaven together?

In today's old Tong family, among the three powerful factions in power, Shangshu Longkodo and Governor Qingtai are both Ama of Yuzhu.

What's even more frightening is that Yuzhu is already a tyrant in the capital with a heavy army in his hands, especially above Long and Qing.

Excuse me, what will Tong Guowei's descendants use to compete with Yu Zhu for the position of future Patriarch?
Don't die?
